[SauronOfMordor]

just as I was confused that the devout Muslims were at a strip club drinking scotch whiskey the night before they flew jets into the Trade Towers.

From my FR Homepage

Entrance into Heaven:

From Understanding Islam, page 2: "no one however devout and pious, can be sure of winning God's favor."

There is one, and exactly one, exception: Hadith Volume 4, Book 53, Number 352:

Narrated Abu Huraira:

Allah's Apostle said, "Allah guarantees him who strives in His Cause and whose motivation for going out is nothing but Jihad in His Cause and belief in His Word, that He will admit him into Paradise (if martyred) or bring him back to his dwelling place, whence he has come out, with what he gains of reward and booty."

Note the bolded part above in hadith 352. The one and only guaranteed way into Muslim paradise is to be killed while fighting in Jihad.

So a Muslim intent on dying in Jihad soon is allowed to do ANYTHING HE WANTS. All his sins will be absolved when he dies in Jihad

[Constitutions Grandchild]

I have been made aware of that martyrdom clause in the Koran. Gee, I hope Mohammad got that part right, if not...well, I'm not sure it's a risk I'd want to take, but that's just me. I'm sure glad I get mercy, because I sure don't deserve justice.

No insult meant, but I'd want to be absolutely sure before I blackened my soul with debauchery and murder that I wasn't going to get to the heavenly gates to have St. Peter say, "Gotcha!" Again, that's just me.
