How to pray the Rosary.
Welp, original post got removed steam support for "advertising" so uh here it is again :3




How to pray the Holy Rosary (SOURCE: Vaticancatholicdotcom)

Begin the Rosary with the Sign of the Cross and the Apostles' Creed.
Continue with the Our Father, 3 Hail Marys, and Glory Be on the beads indicated on the diagram above.
State the first mystery, for example, “The first joyful mystery is the Annunciation.” Pray the Our Father, 10 Hail Marys, the Glory Be and the Fatima Prayer (“O My Jesus”) while meditating upon this mystery.
Repeat this for each subsequent mystery.
At the end of each day’s rosary, say the Hail, Holy Queen and concluding prayers.
We highly recommend that all 15 decades of the Rosary be prayed daily, in obedience to the request of Our Lady of Fatima. This is best accomplished by praying a part of the Rosary at different times of the day, for example, the joyful mysteries in the morning, sorrowful mysteries at midday, and glorious mysteries in the evening. The Hail, Holy Queen only needs to be prayed at the end of the entire day’s rosary.

An essential part of the Rosary is meditation on the mysteries, episodes in the life of Our Lord and Our Lady. This means thinking about them, visualizing them, considering the graces and merits displayed in them, and using them for inspiration to better know and love God. It is also common to focus on a particular virtue with each mystery; those recommended by St. Louis de Montfort are given in the following table.

The Joyful Mysteries

1. The Annunciation to the Blessed Virgin Mary

Humility

2. The Visitation of Mary to her cousin St. Elizabeth

Charity toward our neighbor

3. The Nativity of Our Lord Jesus Christ

Detachment from the things of the world, contempt of riches, and love of poverty

4. The Presentation of the Child Jesus in the Temple, and the Purification of His Blessed Mother

Purity of body and soul

5. The Finding of Our Lord in the Temple

Divine wisdom



The Sorrowful Mysteries

Virtues (St. Louis de Montfort)

1. The Agony in the Garden

Contrition for our sins

2. The Scourging at the Pillar

Mortification of our senses

3. The Crowning with Thorns

Detachment from the things of the world, contempt of riches, and love of poverty

4. The Carrying of the Cross

Patience in bearing our crosses

5. The Crucifixion

The conversion of sinners, the perseverance of the just, and the relief of the souls in Purgatory



The Glorious Mysteries

Virtues (St. Louis de Montfort)

1. The Resurrection

Love of God and fervor in His service

2. The Ascension

An ardent desire for heaven, our true home

3. The Descent of the Holy Ghost at Pentecost

The coming of the Holy Ghost into our souls

4. The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary into Heaven

Tender devotion to our Blessed Mother

5. The Coronation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Queen of Heaven of Earth

Perseverance in grace and a crown of glory hereafter



The Sign of the Cross

With your right hand, trace a cross by touching your forehead, then chest, left shoulder and right shoulder while saying: “In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.”

Apostles' Creed

I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of Heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, Our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into Hell; the third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into Heaven, and sitteth at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.

Our Father

Our Father, Who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy Name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

Hail Mary

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the Fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

Glory Be

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Fatima Prayer

O my Jesus, pardon us, and save us from the fire of Hell; draw all souls to Heaven, especially those in most need.

(William Thomas Walsh, Our Lady of Fatima, Doubleday, 1990, p. 220)

Hail, Holy Queen & Concluding Prayers

Hail, Holy Queen, Mother of mercy, our life, our sweetness and our hope. To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve. To thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley of tears. Turn then, most gracious advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us, and after this our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.

Pray for us, O holy Mother of God.

That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

Let us pray.

O God, whose only begotten Son, by His life, death, and resurrection, has purchased for us the rewards of eternal life, grant, we beseech Thee, that meditating upon these mysteries of the most holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary, we may imitate what they contain, and obtain what they promise, through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.

Exodus 21:7-11 When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she will not be freed at the end of six years as the men are.

Pardon me, Exodus 21: 7-8

How dare me. Indeed, that makes it so much less offensive. 😆

The pope does very well when he grants remission to souls in purgatory, not by the power of the keys, which he does not have, but by way of intercession for them.
They preach only human doctrines who say that as soon as the money clinks into the money chest, the soul flies out of purgatory.
It is certain that when money clinks in the money chest, greed and avarice can be increased; but when the church intercedes, the result is in the hands of God alone.
Who knows whether all souls in purgatory wish to be redeemed, since we have exceptions in St. Severinus and St. Paschal, as related in a legend.
No one is sure of the integrity of his own contrition, much less of having received plenary remission.
The man who actually buys indulgences is as rare as he who is really penitent; indeed, he is exceedingly rare.
Those who believe that they can be certain of their salvation because they have indulgence letters will be eternally damned, together with their teachers.
Men must especially be on guard against those who say that the pope's pardons are that inestimable gift of God by which man is reconciled to him.
For the graces of indulgences are concerned only with the penalties of sacramental satisfaction established by man.
They who teach that contrition is not necessary on the part of those who intend to buy souls out of purgatory or to buy confessional privileges preach unchristian doctrine.
Any truly repentant Christian has a right to full remission of penalty and guilt, even without indulgence letters.
Any true Christian, whether living or dead, participates in all the blessings of Christ and the church; and this is granted him by God, even without indulgence letters.
Nevertheless, papal remission and blessing are by no means to be disregarded, for they are, as I have said (Thesis 6), the proclamation of the divine remission.
It is very difficult, even for the most learned theologians, at one and the same time to commend to the people the bounty of indulgences and the need of true contrition.
A Christian who is truly contrite seeks and loves to pay penalties for his sins; the bounty of indulgences, however, relaxes penalties and causes men to hate them -- at least it furnishes occasion for hating them.
Papal indulgences must be preached with caution, lest people erroneously think that they are preferable to other good works of love.

Exodus 21: 7-11
"And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out as the menservants do.

If she please not her master, who hath betrothed her to himself, then shall he let her be redeemed: to sell her unto a strange nation he shall have no power, seeing he hath dealt deceitfully with her.

And if he have betrothed her unto his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters.

If he take him another wife; her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage, shall he not diminish.

And if he do not these three unto her, then shall she go out free without money."
Okay so you're using a different translation. Fair enough.
However, there are several translations.

English Standard Version
Holman Christian Standard Bible
Christian Standard Bible
King James Version
And so on...

Which one is correct?

It's so cool how every religion thinks they are right and that everyone else is wrong.

Believe it or not. Message delivered.

Allah created everything with purpose. Bad and good thing. So, we can return back to Him.

Still, my advice do our own research with open heart and look on both side story. May Allah guide everyone. Aamiin.
