My acquaintance asked me to open this thread and ask some questions, because most Kazakhs, Tatars, Chechens, Circassians, Bashkirs and other guys in Russia are disagree what Arabs tell them. This question is to local Muslims on TA


is this true that arabic language will be spoken in paradise? If so, who said it?

is this true if you don't know arabic you're not a full Muslim?

why circumcision which mostly practiced in middle east should be spread in other countries where Islam is state religion?

why Semitic peoples are chosen and what's special of Middle east?

what would happen to non-muslims living in isolated areas such as jungles in Africa or mountains in America after their death? Will God burn them alive or what?


such questions are very common among local Muslims in Russia and they want me to ask you foreign Muslims to hear answer :thumb001:

To study Quranic Arabic which according to Islam, Allah had chosen Arabic as the language of the Quran and Islam in general. No, not really. I mean, I know a lot of people who recite the Quran very fluently, and yet, they don't know a lick of MSA(modern standard Arabic). Quranic or classical Arabic is different from MSA and Colloquial Arabic.

"There is no mention in the Qur’aan or in the saheeh Sunnah – as far as we know – of which language is spoken by the people of Paradise. What is narrated concerning that is a hadeeth which is not soundly narrated from our Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), and some other reports (athaar)." - https://islamqa.info/en/83262 (I do not know about any such thing myself, but at the weekend I can ask my local imam)

As far as I know, circumcision is just as much an islamic tradition, like baptism is a part of christian tradition. Ergo, if you wanna be more muslim, you should consider circumcision.
"Islam is currently the largest single religious group in which the practice is widespread,[4] although circumcision is not mentioned in the Qur'an itself but is mentioned in a hadith and the sunnah. Whether or not it should be carried out after converting to Islam is debated among Islamic scholars.", so as a convert there are some special rules that apply.
"It is considered a sign of belonging to the wider Islamic community." and it primarity indicates your belonging to the islamic community, although I believe there are far better ways to show you are muslim than cutting your dick of/showing your mutilated dong to other muslims.
(quotes from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khitan_(circumcision) )


why Semitic peoples are chosen and what's special of Middle east?
I had the exact same question to my friend once. And she told me, that Allah send many prophets all around the globe. Most have been ignored though, and as far as I understood, he has been especially persistend with the semitic people for some reasons. These reasons could be:
- "No matter how much we try, we will not be able to encompass the wisdom of Allah (SWT) in choosing the Arab nation to be the place of His Last Message and location of His Revelation of the Holy Quran" > we cannot understand
- "If a nation became known for its negative aspects and backwardness, but with the religion and message and Holy Quran, it improved and changed its ways to become one of the best nations in its time, what does that indicate?" > he chose the arabs, because they are incapable of any useful thought alone, so allah shows himself by "curing" these people
-etc. read up here:

what would happen to non-muslims living in isolated areas such as jungles in Africa or mountains in America after their death? Will God burn them alive or what?
I also had the same question. I am not 100% sure about all the details, but because these people never had a chance to learn of Allahs power, they will not be punished harshly/at all.
This reveals a paradox in the practice of converting people though. Because, if you introduce someone to islam, then this person might just wonder why you introduced Allah to him, because if he had never known, then he could never be attested for any heathenry he would commit.
I can go into more detail, and explain how all of this does make sense in a way though, but it would be a little bit comples. Tell me if you want to know more though :)

You don't go to toilet in paradise. You think about it and it happens. I guess the same thing applies for language. You just have to think about Arabic language and voila you become fluent!

I asked some religious family members, and they said it is what God wrote in, Arabic. I obviously don't buy this, I find it somehow useless unless you are going to use Arabic for something more useful (work, migration, etc)
