>Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "The first group of people who will enter Paradise, will be glittering like the full moon and those who will follow them, will glitter like the most brilliant star in the sky. They will not urinate, relieve nature, spit, or have any nasal secretions. Their combs will be of gold, and their sweat will smell like musk. The aloes-wood will be used in their centers. Their wives will be houris. All of them will look alike and will resemble their father Adam (in stature), sixty cubits tall."

We can assoom it means the distance from elbow to the tip of the middle finger. An approximate distance instead of an actual official unit.
>>
>>222466589
ok. But regardless it is from the pre-islamic ignorant times and therefore haram. There are multiple hadiths affirming this. How do islamic scholars and islamic science theorists manage this problem?

>>222466609
I manage it by raping and robbing white people for making my brown god look bad.

>>222466609
it's not a problem because ali says so in 417.7.85 using asian translations
islam is perfect so there is no internal debate

Dinar and dirham were Roman and Greek currencies.

>>222466549
Cubits were a unit that everybody came up with. It's the length of your elbow to the tip of your longest finger

>>222466609
Anon, I get that you think that that is some kind of own but Muslims believe that the Islam was the first religion (from the time of Adam) and that the Quran predates the creation of the Cosmos and that indeed all of the universe is contained within the Quran

You sure? I thought picrel was universal but the internets said it isn't.
>search "vaaksa", want to know what's it called in english
>goto wiki page
>page says "span" is the closest english approximation
>look at "span"
>isn't picrel
>>
>>222469150
that is one meaning of span yes. everyone has or had this. what gets formalised into units varies, and how the units change varies. they are presumably derived from the physical bodily measurement, but long ago and exist independently. you can measure something yourself using your own hand, but that doesn't change the formalised unit and the formalised unit may not even be needed or known by you.
