Description of 4Islam

The  4Islam Group is dedicated to discussing Issues concerning Islam and Muslims. We encourage our members to Explore and Understand "Islam" by indulging in critical analyses and constructive discussions.

This mailing list was started by five of us in September of 2000 and it has grown over those years multifold. This is an informal discussion group; consider it a large living room of sorts, welcoming people from all backgrounds. The only assumption is that you consider yourself as a seeker of Truth and inclined towards that direction, or are interested in knowledge-based inquiry in Islam.

If you are not already subscribed to this list, you can do so via email or the Web. To find out how, see the sections below.

Brief Guidelines

• Any question or comment that is related to Islam and Muslims in all its aspects is fair game. These topics include but are not limited to: details of Islamic philosophy, daily worship, modern Issues facing us, the Qur'an, Hadeeth, ethics, and rituals.
  
• Please do not post binary files, images, encoded files, Postscript, etc. These are unreadable by most people and clog up our mailboxes.
  
• Please remain courteous, and please take a moment before you send your message to think of whether you are going to unnecessarily offend anyone, or if your ego is speaking rather than yourself. Strong opinions are very welcome; rude and offensive ones are not.
  
• This is a private mailing list and the moderators reserve the right to remove anyone who is being disruptive or who is harassing others. We do not tolerate abuse on any religion.

Posting from Multiple Email addresses

By default, this list only allows subscribed addresses to post messages to the list. If you wish to post from another address, but subscribe from only one address, you need to set up an alternate posting address. To do this, click here and scroll down to the section titled Alternate Posting Addresses. Enter your other email addresses and click the Save Changes button at the bottom.

This allows you to post from the list from another email-address without the list distribution being sent to that address. You can add as many aliases as you like.
