kasratu.. Where v Korane eto napisano? Little li chto alimi govoryat! Ti vozmesh na sebya chuguyu krov ili alimi, da oni za svoi tupoi komment, a ti za ubistvo. Otkroi Koran perevod Boguslavskogo v Inete i pochitai eti dve glavi: 4, 24. Nigde net pro ubistvo, a tem bolee gestokoe, a eshe shodi v nash Shariatski Sud. Ubit mogno, kogda na tebya napali i ugroza gizni, togda etot napavshi, kak tolko umer, popadet v Ad i krov za krov, bolshe nelzya.

Question: Please tell me which sins are the most unforgivable.

Alim's answer: There are three types of sins. The sins that Allah forgives, the sins that He does not forgive, and the sins that remain.

The sins that Allah forgives are sins between a person and Allah, and if you sincerely repent and make the intention not to return to them again, Allah forgives.

A sin that cannot be forgiven is shirk - disbelief (may Allah protect us from this!). Praise be to Allah, in the Ummah it is extremely rare to find Muslims who fall into major shirk. Great shirk is the belief that there is another god along with Allah. Allah does not forgive the sins of a polytheist. The Koran says: “Allah does not forgive polytheism and forgives other sins to whomever He wishes” (Sura an-Nisa, verse 47). Sins that remain are debts to people. That is, if you took something away from someone else or stole it, etc. Allah will not forgive this until someone else’s property is returned or the offender asks for forgiveness and he forgives him.

Then Jesus entered the countries of Tire and Sidon. And so, a Canaanite woman, coming out of those places, shouted to Him: have mercy on me, O Lord, son of David, my daughter is cruelly raging. But He did not answer her a word. And His disciples came up and asked Him: let her go, because she is screaming after us. He answered and said: I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. And she, coming up, bowed to Him and said: Lord! help me. He answered and said, “It is not good to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.” She said: yes, Lord! but the dogs also eat the crumbs that fall from their masters’ table. Then Jesus answered and said to her: O woman! great is your faith; let it be done to you as you wish. And her daughter was healed at that hour.

Today the Lord comforts us with the maternal faith of a woman who belonged to the Canaanites - an unholy race expelled by God from the Promised Land to make room for the Jews - the chosen people.

The Canaanite woman relentlessly follows the Lord, and the disciples say: “Let her go, because she is crying out after us.” And the Lord says that He came to save the children of God - those who believe in the true God, and not those who worship idols, live in wickedness and do not want to repent. The apostles beg that He would have mercy on this woman and let her go, not because they have such love for her, but because, on the contrary, they want her to leave them as quickly as possible and not bother them. The Lord does not intercede for this woman, does not answer either their or her prayers. He wants them to better understand what's going on.

He leads this woman from one understanding to another, even greater one. Her faith grew as she followed Him. First, for her, He is the Son of David, and then the Lord. From a call for help to a great man, she reaches God Himself, without understanding how this happens. “Lord,” she says, “even the dogs eat the grains that fall from the table of their masters!” She is humbled, she is filled with humility to the end, she begins to see everything in its true light. This humility, the acceptance of her cross, like the humility of the prudent thief, who says: “I accept what is worthy according to my deeds,” makes her capable of accepting the gift of God: “O woman, great is your faith, may it be done to you as you wish. And her daughter was healed at that hour.”

Let us note that this woman does not say “have mercy on my daughter,” but “have mercy on me, Lord.” Her daughter is tormented by demons, and she begs the Lord to have mercy on her. This cry of the Canaanite woman should today become the prayer of all mothers whose children are cruelly possessed. Blinded by sin, they do not realize the horror of their condition, as their parents realize it for them.

It is natural for normal parents to experience their children's troubles as if they were their own. Oh, if the Lord would have mercy on all the dissolute children of Russia and all the parents overwhelmed by grief because of them! In this terrible trouble, what mercy of the Lord can comfort their hearts if it is not shown in relation to their children? This sometimes happens to children that unfortunate mothers, coming to church, cannot talk or pray about anything except about their children.

A woman comes up to receive communion, and when the priest says: “The servant of God is taking communion,” she says: “Tatiana,” and then, suddenly, as if coming to her senses, she corrects herself: “Oh, no, Irina.” And to the bewildered look of the priest he replies: “Forgive me, it’s my daughter Tatyana who can’t get out of my head.” Perhaps this Canaanite woman is now asking the Lord to forgive her for failing to raise her daughter and for missing her. Or maybe she realizes that because of her sin, which she will never part with, this evil has come to her daughter. That’s why she says: “Have mercy on me.”

See how need makes a person pray. "God help me! If You, Lord, do not help, no one in the world will help me.” She visited all the doctors, all the psychics and healers, and all in vain. My daughter is still freaking out. But there is, there is one Doctor of all diseases, mental and physical. Let Him not answer and seem not to notice it, even after His companions ask Him for it. She runs ahead, falls on her knees before Him and shouts: “Lord, help me!”

The Lord hears her prayer, but He wants her to see incomparably more in her misfortune and in herself. To find out how terrible eternal death is and how merciful the Lord is. The Lord tells her: “It is not good to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.” And she answers: “Yes, Lord. But the dogs also eat the crumbs that fall from their masters’ table.” We know that the Jews abhorred the pagans, calling them dogs, because they abandoned faith in the true God and served demons, magic and debauchery. But the Lord wants to show His apostles, before He sends them after His Resurrection to preach to all nations, how great the faith can be for those who seem to have lost all hope of salvation.

Let us also learn from her the persistence of prayer for our children. Fathers and mothers come to the temple crying and asking what prayers they should pray for their dying daughters and sons. Whatever it is, all prayers are about them. But not in a way that “maybe it will help.” Not reading akathists and canons - but all our grief, all our soul should pour out into them. We cannot, we must not, we cannot be refused by the Lord. So the saint prayed righteous John Kronstadt and Saint John of Shanghai. This is how all mothers should pray with the entire Holy Church. Even though we are in the very midst of troubles, we have been given hope from the Lord that does not despair.

Let the devil be allowed to pervert the meaning of everything, so that they want to turn us into Canaanites and clear the space of Russia for more worthy peoples - God is with us, strict and infinitely merciful. With us - with every dying son and daughter - the prayer of a mother who will reach from the bottom of the sea.

The Lord said to the Canaanite woman: “Oh, woman! Great is your faith; let it be done to you as you wish.” This pagan who becomes a Christian reveals many amazing things in her prayer - wisdom, humility, meekness, patience. But all this is the fruit of her faith. Of all its virtues, Christ singles out faith most of all. For faith brings you closer to God than anything else. Great is her faith. Every person's faith is precious, but not everyone has it equally strong. The greatness of faith lies in the determination to follow Christ, to be filled with complete trust in Him, even if it seems that we do not receive what we ask for. The Light of Christ is revealed to us as we walk in His ways. We, too, sometimes shout: “Help!”, but the Lord does not answer us. But as disciples, we persist until Christ reminds us of His ministry. And the Lord does not reject weak faith, but He expects from us great faith. He heals the woman’s daughter: “Let it be done to you as you wish.” He cannot deny her anything; He gives her what she came to Him for. Overcoming all obstacles, all difficulties, people of great faith can gain everything through their prayer. When our will agrees with the will of Christ’s commandments, His will will be one with the will of our desires. We can, like the Canaanite woman, ask the Lord for anything, and He will give us everything. But it won't be the way we think. It will be the way He wants it. It will be infinitely better. Our joy will be a sharing of the joy of the One who gives. Who wants to give us not part, but all, because He is God. God is God and He leads us beyond everything. We must let Him lead us, open up to Him, and ultimately become wounded by those nails and that spear that He will accept for the salvation of all. So that by His stripes we may be healed and recognize Him as He is. As the One who conquers with love, because God is love.

21...Jesus withdrew to the countries of Tire and Sidon. 22. And so, a Canaanite woman, coming out of those places, shouted to Him: have mercy on me, O Lord, son of David, my daughter is cruelly raging. 22. But He did not answer her a word. And His disciples came up and asked Him: let her go, because she is screaming after us. 24. He answered and said: I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. 25. And she came up, bowed to Him and said: Lord! help me. 26 And he answered and said, It is not right to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs. 27. She said: Yes, Lord! but the dogs also eat the crumbs that fall from their masters’ table. 28.Then Jesus answered her: O woman! great is your faith; let it be done to you as you wish. And her daughter was healed at that hour. (Matt. 15:21-28)

[Jesus] came into the borders of Tire and Sidon; and, having entered the house, he did not want anyone to find out; but could not hide. For a woman whose daughter was possessed by an unclean spirit heard about Him, and she came and fell at His feet; and that woman was a pagan, a Syrophoenician by birth; and asked Him to cast out the demon from her daughter. But Jesus said to her, “Let the children have their fill first, for it is not good to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.” She answered Him: So, Lord; but even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs. And he said to her: for this word, go; The demon has left your daughter. And, having arrived at her house, she found that the demon had left and her daughter was lying on the bed. (Mark 7:24-30)

Thank you lanfranco, that the post on his LiveJournal made me seriously think about the meaning of this story.

The text is certainly one of the difficult ones, so I thought for a long time. About the same as Iscariot over betrayal. That is, a day and a half. Then I tried to mow it down for another day. But today I realized that I still have to write.

In fact, the text about the Canaanite woman is the tip of that iceberg of thoughts about theodicy, which I have been thinking about for not a day and a half, but a little more. There is one interpretation of this text, it is given by lanfranco , in fact, it was from him that the desire to write this post arose. The interpretation belongs to Yakov Krotov, I think many of you know him. It sounds like this:

Jesus specifically went to places where there were no compatriots in order to be in silence, “but he could not hide himself.” A woman, a “Syrophoenician”, a Phoenician from Syria (there were also Phoenicians in Libya), made her way to Him and asked to heal her daughter.
“Let the children be satisfied first,” answered Jesus, unexpectedly comparing the Jews, who boasted of their thousand-year history and spiritual greatness, with babies, even if especially loved by God, but just children who sit at a separate table aside from the main table. “It’s not good to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs" (Mk 7:27). You could have been offended, you could have screamed - no one would have condemned a woman who was denied such a request. On paper, Jesus' words seem cruel. And she saw that He was joking: Jesus said not “dog”, but “kinaria” - “puppy”, depriving the curse of all its power and turning it into a joke. Swearing does not tolerate deviations from the stencil; “son of a bitch” is no longer an insult, but a mockery of the insult. Jesus does not stigmatize her, but invites her to talk - the woman understood and took up the joke: “But even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs” (Mk 7:28). “Because of this word, go; the devil is gone out of your daughter,” Jesus concluded joyfully.

To save a person, it turned out to be not at all necessary to adapt to the person or even go to him."

(c) Yakov Krotov. History is like life. Life of Jesus.

IMHO, terrible.

I don’t know what you think, dear comrades, but in mine, this is the interpretation - full guard. Let the first person to unfriend me is the one who believes that I do not place love and joy above the highest things in Christianity. But not here, not like this, not in this shape and form. I get chills from interpreting this text in a humorous way. I wouldn't want to face it life path with a person, especially with God, who giggles in such a situation. I’m not talking about the mother who “takes up the joke.”

I really love Christian joy. Just in the last post I wrote about Francis - perhaps the most joyful saint, whose love survived centuries precisely in its joy and openness. Joy for me is one of the criteria for the authenticity of Christianity - whether in the interpretation of the text or in a person. Sullenness is never right.

But genuine Christian joy and what Krotov offers in his interpretation differ approximately in the same way as thick red wine and Jupi powder diluted in water. Christianity is not pink water that you can rinse your mouth with to make it smell nice, and then either swallow it or spit it out, it makes no difference. And this is exactly what happens with the above interpretation - even if there is this demonstration of blackness in the Gospel, even if it is not there, in general, it makes no difference (and it would be better if it weren’t).

Christianity is not a pink bow frivolously attached to human soul. Christianity is a knife that penetrates a person very deeply, wounding him to the very heart, reaching to the very depths of his being and, yes, causing pain. But only through such a wound, piercing all our vital skins, all our vital armor, can we be united with Christ. If anyone thinks that in Christianity one can avoid wounds, let him thoughtfully honor Christ’s call to take up the cross and follow Him. It would also be good to reflect on the spiritual closeness of anesthesia and the agony of the cross.

Don't be afraid to read texts that cause pain to the reader or participants in the episode. And there is no need to be afraid when Christ causes pain - He does not do this for the sake of sadism. There is no need to look for petty excuses for Him that speak of nothing more than mistrust. There is no need to degrade the text, which penetrates to the very depths of the soul, to the level of Zadornovism. Christianity is very joyful and very serious. And without perfect, deepest and sometimes very bitter seriousness, there would never be joy.

Let's still drink red wine, not rose water.

Christian joy is always connected with finding God, and Jesus never healed the flesh without neglecting the soul. Krotov’s interpretation, IMHO, does not satisfy both of these conditions.

...Jesus withdrew to the countries of Tire and Sidon.

So the picture: day, sun, hot. Jesus and his disciples are walking along the road (let's stick to Matthew's version, there are more replicas in it, Mark, as usual, believes that the cr. s. tal.), a woman runs after them, trying to catch up with them and calling out loudly, and probably out of breath , and probably in the most pitiful voice.

22 And so, a Canaanite woman, coming out of those places, shouted to Him: have mercy on me, O Lord, son of David, my daughter is cruelly raging.

There is little sense, the disciples look back at her, but Jesus does not seem to hear. Syrophoenician... Well... A pagan, of course, but this no longer confuses even the disciples - does Jesus communicate little with pagans? He is friendly with the Romans, and the Samaritans approach Him boldly. What, if I may forgive him for his insolence, did a fly bite Him today?


23 But He did not answer her a word. And His disciples came up and asked Him: let her go, because she is screaming after us.

24 He answered and said: I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

SUDDENLY the house of Israel, I would say. The apostles naturally became numb, and no wonder. You cannot contradict yourself any more than Jesus contradicts you by making an excuse like this. I can imagine how the guys looked at each other in bewilderment - each of them could instantly recall to Christ the healed pagan Romans and Samaritans, who were also no strangers to Jews. While they are thinking about how to more delicately hint to the Teacher about these circumstances, the woman comes closer.

25 And she, coming up, bowed to Him and said: Lord! help me.
26 He answered and said, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.”

A knife in a woman’s heart is one of those passages in the Gospel that have been blamed on Christ and Christians for 2000 years. You know, it’s really very difficult not to start being indignant here. Do not relive this moment emotionally. Don't condemn Christ.

Fortunately, Jesus does not care at all about the indignation of the compassionate and liberal. All pity and all liberalism cannot do what He can, do not know what He knows, and, therefore, He is in His right.

IMHO, IMHO, but in fact they say a lot more to each other here than is written. You can’t parse it phrase by phrase, but word by word.

"God! Help me!"

She is a Syrophoenician. She is from Phenicia. Countries where one of the most cruel and vile religious cults of all antiquity flourished. Cult of infanticide. The cult of sacrificing firstborn children their Lord- Moloch.

In the New City, which the Romans called Carthage, as in the ancient cities of the Phoenicians, the deity who worked “without fools” was called Moloch; apparently it was no different from the deity known as Baal.

At first the Romans did not know what to do with it or what to call it; they had to turn to the most primitive ancient myths to find his weak likeness - Saturn, devouring. But the worshipers of Moloch cannot be called primitive. They lived in a developed and mature society and did not deny themselves either luxury or sophistication. They were probably much more civilized than the Romans. And Moloch was not a myth; in any case, he ate quite realistically. These civilized people appeased the dark forces by throwing hundreds of children into a blazing oven. (c) G.K. Chesterton “The Eternal Man”

“My daughter is cruelly raging...” And, I would say, no wonder. The rituals of the Phoenicians are truly demonic. We don’t know why our daughter is freaking out, but we can make a guess.

I'll guess. It seems to me that the daughter’s demonic possession is a direct consequence of the satanic cults that this woman professed. Visible action of the devil. Visible answer their Lord - Moloch.

And now she calls the Other Lord.

Jesus never, ever accepted such confessions from demonic forces. How many times did He cast out demons, how many times did they try to call Him the Son of God - but He forbade them, not wanting to hear this news from these mouth (Luke 4:41). And now before Him stands the one whose people called the child-killer Moloch Lord. And she turns the same name to Him, the Savior.

And in response, one of the most cruel New Testament phrases sounds.

26 He answered and said, “It is not good to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.”

It is He, He. Who had to be convincingly dissuaded when He tried to go and personally heal the servant of the Roman centurion (Matt. 8:5-10). He was probably also a devout Jew.

And if you think about it...

What does this mysterious phrase even mean, huh?! What does it mean “it’s not good to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs”? Well, except that the Lord clearly speaks impartially about the Phoenicians. What kind of bread? we're talking about? Who even suggests taking something away from children to give to dogs? The power of God - is it akin to an Energizer battery? If the Gentiles are helped, will the Jews get less?

And why, in the end, can the Romans be helped, but the Phoenicians cannot?! And what can outweigh in the eyes of Christ all the perverted abomination of the union of man and demon, so that He refuses to help?

This is the second extremely strange excuse, very similar in apparent plausibility to “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” Here's something to think about. But at this point, almost all readers and interpreters feel terribly sorry for the woman. And instead of thinking with their heads, they begin to think with their hearts, well, and it turns out that it turns out: oh, how could He, oh, He was joking, citizens, he called me a bitch and in that spirit. Jesus doesn’t care about all the lamentations, but how much meaning we are losing!

IMHO. Global IMHO. But, in my opinion, we must try to look at this text as if from behind Christ, to hear His voice. And especially highlight the words “bread” and “dogs”.

By bread Jesus means Himself. Not the first time, by the way. Compare this with John 6:48ff. It is Himself, and not His abilities as a healer, that He does not want to give away.

If He is called Lord by the children of the people with whom He was throughout history, His children, from the firstborn Isaac to the last newborn - is it possible to allow the same naming to those whose “Lord” is a child killer? Can He accept their confession that He is their Lord? Can He agree to such, so to speak, ecumenism and, as it were, tolerantly confirm with this that there is one Lord, only the paths to Him are different, and all religions preach the same thing, even if they call on children to burn, or even to take the cross and follow the Savior?

Having accepted worship from child killers, will He not cease to be Lord for His children?

IMHO, this is one of the most striking anti-ecumenist phrases in the New Testament. The Lord does not want to be the Lord of demons. And for non-worshippers too. And Christ does not want to share this name with anyone else. No, all religions are not the same, God is not the same for everyone.

The words Lord and God, synonymous for us, were not yet synonymous then. “Blessed is the people whose Lord is their God,” says the Psalmist in Psalm 33, and linguistically this is not at all identical to saying, “Blessed is the people whose cavalry is cavalry.”

God is the Creator, the creator of Existence, the source of life. And of course, Jesus is God for the Phoenicians, as well as for everyone else in heaven, earth and hell. This is kind of a given. But He is Lord only for those who themselves recognize Him as their patron, their Lord. He cannot be a patron only by His will; He definitely needs the opposite sincere human recognition. It is unpleasant for Christ when demons call Him Lord - perhaps not so much because they are demons - after all, who else but Him should remember that they too are His creatures - but because they do it deceitfully, flatteringly and out of fear .

By dogs, He obviously means the Phoenicians. And this word is also not accidental: once He already spoke about a shrine that should not be given to dogs.

Do not give what is holy to dogs, and do not throw your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet and turn and tear you to pieces” (Matt. 7:6)

Jesus is not Lord to the Phoenician woman, He directly makes it clear to her, and in this there is a certain echo of a formidable warning about the final Judgment. Not everyone who says to Me: “Lord, Lord!” will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in Heaven.

(Matt. 7:21)

She said: yes, Lord! but the dogs also eat the crumbs that fall from their masters’ table. (Matt. 15:27)

If this sounds like a joke to some, then I have no sense of humor at all. I'm not laughing. I'm jealous: How she hears Him. Look: they talk as if there aren't twelve other guys around. They are alone, alone in the whole world. The Savior and the soul that He needs to pull into the light.

You can again succumb to emotions and again reproach Him for pulling the nerves out of an unhappy mother, instead of healing the child, and then talk about theological topics. But at the same time, it is somehow forgotten that it was not only the daughter who suffered from demonic possession. To some extent, my mother was also possessed. She did not seek salvation for herself, she did not know how monstrously her soul was affected, but Christ saw it. Yes, compassionate commentators have not seen for two thousand years, but He saw.

And he tried to reach her precisely when she was most open to Him. He wasn't joking. He was not at all in the mood for jokes.

And I got through.

Had He healed the daughter first, it is very likely that the mother would not have heard Him later. Remember the story about how He healed ten lepers, but only one came to thank Him? (Luke 7:12-19, by the way, the one who returned was a healed Samaritan - this again comes to the question of “only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel”) How many people are able to listen to some warnings in joy? But many people are capable of breaking themselves and reaching for heaven through their own pain in joy?

Jesus cuts to the living, yes, cuts very painfully, yes. He did not suffer from good-naturedness at all. If He had raised the woman from the ground with the joyful words “My daughter” - and immediately healed the child - it would not have been true, and first of all it would have harmed the woman herself. You can spare your pride, but greatly harm your soul. But according to God’s scale of values, the soul still stands higher, so He doesn’t hesitate to kick it out of pride, out of self-complacency, as, in general, He periodically does with each of us. He doesn’t want us to go to hell in our arms with a carefully cherished sense of our own greatness - it’s not worth it. He loves us too much to let us die over such a small thing.

She is not His daughter yet. She really is a stupid puppy. The puppy still has to grow and grow before the child, but at least now there is a clear hope of growing into a human being, this is, you know, an unexpected twist in evolution.

Two words about the “crumbs” that the woman speaks about self-deprecatingly, otherwise she also really wants to sob compassionately. No need. She speaks very correctly. New puppies like her can't afford anything more than these little ones. They simply cannot chew or swallow any more. Then, much later, the Apostle Paul, speaking about the newcomers, about the babes in Christ, will say “I fed you with milk, and not with [solid] food, for you were not yet able, and even now you are not able... (1 Cor. 3:2).” The logic, in general, is the same, with the only difference that Paul was dealing with newcomers who had already believed in Christ, and Jesus was dealing with those who had not yet completely moved away from unworship.

Then Jesus answered and said to her: O woman! great is your faith; let it be done to you as you wish. And her daughter was healed at that hour. (Matt. 15:28)

No, have you noticed how the phrase about “only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel” magically turns out to be irrelevant again? That's where the miracle is.

But we can rightfully say that the first Dominican woman appeared on the pages of the Gospel.

Domini canis - these are the dogs of the Lord.

P.S. in fact, because of this text, I didn’t sleep for more than a day. I'm already shaking. But I couldn’t help but write. That's it, go to sleep, otherwise my heart is already not feeling well.

Maternal petition about pardoning a convicted person. The mother's petition asking for a pardon for her son is drawn up in the name of the president of the state, but it is considered by a specially created commission. In every town Russian Federation there is its own commission to consider such requests.

Priority during consideration will be given to the mother’s petition, which is supported by the petition of the convicted person himself with the conviction of his sincere repentance for the crime committed.

It is in maternal petitions that there are often arguments, in view of which the commission makes a positive decision.

The petition asking for clemency must be written by hand in free form. However, lawyers recommend adhering to the following sequence of presentation:

  1. information about the addressee (to the President of the Russian Federation, full name) and about the applicant;
  2. an introduction describing the identity of the convicted person, the reason for his deprivation of liberty, the date of his conviction and the period of actual serving of the sentence;
  3. petition for pardon (you must indicate the reasons why the convicted person should be pardoned);
  4. list of attached documents;
  5. date and signature of the applicant.

Also, the mother’s petition for clemency should indicate all the weighty arguments that will sway the commission in favor of making a positive decision.

Maternal petition for pardon of a convicted person
