"THE COMPLETE IDIOT’S GUIDE TO UNDERSTANDING ISLAM"
ووجد ان هذا الكتاب يتحدث عن اصل كلمة "موسك" المسجد بالانجليزي وانها كلمة محوله من اللغة الاسبانية والتي ذكرها الملك فرديناند والذي قال:- (((سنسحق المسلمين كما نسحق الباعوض ))) – والذي هو اسمة بالانجليزي( موسكيتو ) واين يوجد الباعوض؟ يوجد طبعا في المستنقعات التي تكثر فيها – طبعا اين يوجد المسلمين؟ يكثر وجودهم طبعا في المسجد – فحرفت كلمة وبحكم اختصاصي في اللغة والادب الانجليزي كم مرة تسائلت من اين جائت كلمة "موسك" لنا وكنت اقارنها بكلمة "موسكيتو" فطبعا موسكيتو الباعوض هي mosquito تحولت الى كلمة mosque وهكذا وصار يسمون المسجد بالموسك mosque فلذا يجب تغيير اسم الموسك mosque الى كلمة المسجد masjed مثل كلمة الله لايجب ان نقول god لان قود الاله فيكون اي اله ولكن نقول الله Allah وهو الله وحدة لاشريك له
وهكذا فالرجاء نشرها للاهمية
:s

اختكم نور العين
A letter from my side has been sent in the past explaining that
the word mosque referred to muslims negatively. That is in the sense we are mosquitoes or so that should be eliminated.I have now received a message correcting that understanding , and a copy of what was earliar sent to us to give us this meaning.
mosque is masjid .. masjid is mosque…though i think it is best to call it masjid.
For those intrested in the truth of the matter read below and check . Please disregard earliar emails from my side that says it is wrong to call it mosque.
Dear all
lI’ve got the followign reply from one of my friends re: the emai
that
i’ve sent about Mosque.
Apologize for any inconvenience
I have seen the message about Mosque before and I did double
check. I
doubt that it is correct. Here is the results that I got (quoted
from my
earlier reply.)
Please allow me to differ with the information you provided
again!I I
checked the American Heritage Dictionary (which I have
a softcopy of it) and got the following:
mosque (mosk)
Noun
A Moslem house of worship.
I doubt very much that the American Heritage Dictionary
(which I
was told it is the standard dictionary used by the US
government) will hide the root of the word!
Salam.
