Why does God let children starve to death?
Why are some born with malformations or disease?
Why does God allow racism?
Why disasters?
Why war?
Why murder?
The list goes on and on with one thing in common....all caused by humans. Man spews hatred at anything he doesn't agree with OR is against his religious beliefs.
Little kitty... God doesn't hate anyone.
Professor cat, you don't want to ask that on this site. Take it over to answermug. They like controversy stuff and arguing....
Not here. We are all very respectful of each other and we like it that way.

The Bible record reveals that humans were made to live much longer than animals. The early offspring of Adam, being near to perfection, lived as long as 969 years. This illustrates the fact that cell-replacement continued for all those years, and the cells of the central nervous system (which scientists say can be repaired but … Read more
The Prophet’s ﷺ statement: “People should desist from failing to attend salat al-Jumu’ahsalat al-Jumu’ah, otherwise Allah will seal their hearts, and they will be among the negligent.”[ Source: Muslim.]
Probably because they were careful with how frequently they ordered Fast Food, tried not to get hooked onto Iced Tea, did not eat tons of Tilefish, did not fall for the convenience of Microwave Popcorn, resisted the temptation to have Chicken Nuggets, kept a count on their spoons of White Sugar and cut down on … Read more
Adam and others lived for so long because they are closer to perfection than we are today. It was God's original purpose that all humans would live forever in peaceful conditions in paradise on earth. When Adam and Eve decided that they no longer wanted to follow God's right to rule and became disobedient, in … Read more
The Prophet ﷺ said“Islam is built upon five: Testifying that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah and that Muhammad ﷺ is His servant and messenger; establishing As-Salah; giving Az- Zakah; observing pilgrimage to the (holy) house and fasting Ramadhan.”[ Agreed upon.]
There are a number of ideas one being that the prophets had whole souls where as we don't as there are so many of us hence we don't live as long see link..

In the future there will be no need to use a restroom.
Natural foods produce no waist.
I absolutely do not give any credibility whatsoever to the tales of Adam, or any other biblical characters, living for multiple centuries.
