Re: 2 Rakat Namaz

The ayat I quoted does not define the Creator. It simply states that Allah is the creator of the sun and the moon. Weill, the ayat also states that do sujdah to "allah" who created them (the sun and the moon). Now if this "allah" is fathomless, unperceivable, unknown and unseen,...

I understand that hunting in Kenya was banned in 1977 but I believe it was recently modified and regularized by the Kenyan Wildlife Society, if I am not mistaken (that's why I requested you to google).
