A friend of mine claimed that the Muslims believe that there are 360 joints in the body. I said that couldnt be true because there are only 206 bones to the body and it takes two bones to make a joint. He said to ask a Muslim and he'll confirmed it.

What say you Proud Muslim?
 
Proud Muslim is refusing to tell us. Well I looked it up and it's true Mohamed said there were 360 joints. I guess Allah lied to him.
 
Agit-prop?

It's actually an interesting topic, Greco, but unfortunately simplified. Perhaps you could share with us the bounty of your research?

Islam's claim about the 360 joints in the human body was proven to be true!
"Aisha reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: Every one of the children of Adam has been created with three hundred and sixty joints; so he who declares the Glory of Allah, praises Allah, declares Allah to be One, Glorifies Allah, and seeks forgiveness from Allah, and removes stone, or thorn, or bone from people's path, and enjoins what is good and forbids from evil, to the number of those three hundred and sixty-four, will walk that day having removed himself from Hell. (Translation of Sahih Muslim, The Book of Zakat (Kitab Al-Zakat), Book 005, Number 2199)"
Narrated Buraydah ibn al-Hasib: "I heard the Apostle of Allah peace_be_upon_him) say: A human being has three hundred and sixty joints for each of which he must give alms. The people asked him: Who is capable of doing this? He replied: It may be mucus in the mosque which you bury, and something which you remove from the road; but if you do not find such, two rak'ahs in the forenoon will be sufficient for you. (Translation of Sunan Abu-Dawud, General Behavior (Kitab Al-Adab), Book 41, Number 5222)"
Beside from the beautiful teachings about Worshiping the One True Living GOD Almighty and removing obstacles from the paths of people, Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him made a very important scientific claim, and that is: Our human bodies have 360 joints in them
Hopefully this will be enough
 
:m: Did someone say joints? :m:
I just had my first chance to use that icon, sorry.

Religions often make mistakes. Prophets made mistakes. Learning is a pursuit of truth. Keep on learning.
