Qur'an

The Quran (القرآن‎, romanized: al-Qurʼān, literally meaning "the recitation"), also romanized Qur'an or Koran, is the central religious text of Islam, which Muslims believe to be a revelation from God (Allah). It is widely regarded as the finest work in classical Arabic literature. The Quran is divided into chapters (Arabic: سورة sūrah, plural سور suwar), which are subdivided into verses (Arabic: آية āyah, plural آيات āyāt).

God never granted Palestine to the Jews. Such claim is a false Zionist claim. Zionists are committing crimes against humanity by killing innocent children, men and women which makes it a human responsibility on every human being to oppose such crimes.

This is interestingly a "new research", accommodating to today's popular trend. 

Cannibalism is also common among animals, even their own babies. A lot of animals eat their own excrement, or self-mutilate, chewing off their own limbs. Some animals kill their partner, once mating season is finished. 

A lot of animals are monogamous for life. There are animals that can change sex, or are two-sexed, and there are animals that don't need to mate to reproduce. 

The point here is that the argument of comparing human behaviour to animals is a very weak argument, and does not justify anything.

And Allah knows best

There is no need in making an Ahd عهد to put your hand on the Quran.

The Ahd is a promise which must be fulfilled. Breaking the Ahd is a sinful act and has a Kaffara which is either fasting two months or feeding sixty ooor believers.

The best Zikr is the Salwaat (ALLAHUMMA SALLI ALA MUHAMMAD WA AALI MUHAMMAD). That is why it is obligatory in every Prayer and no Prayer (Salah) can be valid with out the Salawaat. Hadeeths on the greatness of Salawaat are too many.

Slavery rules were never started by Muslims but were already existing in different societies of the time when Islam came. Slavery rules are an outcome of wars. Islamic rules aimed to diminish slavery and finish it off. Slavery rules can not be taken as permanent rules for life but only in war and after war under many conditions.

Slave female from war between Nin Muslims against Muslims is not like a full wife of the owner who has the full rights of justice between her and other wife and inheritance from her husband. When the Muslims marries his owned female (Aman), she will then have all rights if the wife. With out marriage, she is called Sariyyah.

There is a big misunderstanding or misguiding regarding the meaning of this verse and another similar verses. شيعا means groups and does not have any link with Shia شيعة.  Allah in Quran Praised the great Prophet Ebraheem of being. Shia وإنَّ مِن شيعته لإبراهيم  (Sura Al-Saffaat, verse 83). Allah (SWT) called the sincere followers of the prophets as their Shia as we read in Quran Sura Al-Qasab, verse 15.

The groups blamed are those who went away from the Prophet and his real successors (Abul Bayt) while the real followers of the Prophet are called his Shia. We thank Allah for granting us with this great bounty of being a Shia of the Prophet (SAWA) and Ahlul Bayt (AS) and saving us from those groups who went away from Ahlul Bayt (AS).

'When we say that we are Shia Muslims, it means that we are following the original Islam of the Prophet and his holy Progeny.

The verse is very clear in ordering for justice and kindness to all human beings, and then ordering giving to the relatives. The directive for justice and kindness is general which includes all, and never restricted to relatives while the next part of the directive is to give the relatives.
