Islam on the Internet, Wednesday 19 February 2014






















Space Travel is unIslamic


(Contributed by Dr Zahid Aziz)

According to the newspaper Khaleej Times it will be haram for a Muslim to undertake a trip to Mars because there is a likelihood of that he may not return. According to this argument when vaccination was invented Muslims should have refused it because it might have killed them. Or Muslim should not have invented an aeroplane or a submarine because they might have died when travelling in one! This list is endless.

Let us read the following news item and cry together at lack of intellectual prowess in the Muslim clergy.

Travel to Mars is haram.
