Even in England.

ReplyDeleteBISMILLAH AR RAHMAN AR RAHIM (In the name of Allah Most Gracious Most Merciful)
ReplyDeletePeace to all who follow hidayath (guidance, the correct path)!
Islam…for whom? For every person upon whom Allah has bestowed life and intellect. For those who can see the blessings of Allah. For those who can hear the Words of Allah. For those who can comprehend the evidences of Allah. For those whose hearts are full of love and gratitude to Allah. For you, for me, and for those whose blessed hearts are open to faith in Islam.
I invite you to Islam for your eternal happiness. Eternal felicity, salvation and peace are in Islam. Goodness and light are in Islam. I just want to warrn you at facing to terrible penalty. There is no compulsion in Islam and I don’t force you. Because Hidayath (İslam: the correct path) is distinct from error. Allah jalla jalaluh is An-Nur: He who gives light to all the worlds, who illuminates the faces, minds and hearts of His servants. Allah is Al-Haadi. He who provides guidance. The true guidance is light from Allah. You are at the Presence of Allah and you should alone invoke Allah that Allah illuminated your face, mind and heart (spiritual) and provided your guidance. Allah is Al-Mu'min: He who awakes the light of faith in our hearts.
Allah is At-Tawwab: He who is ever ready to accept repentance and to forgive sins (Relenting)). Narrated by Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) - Allah's Messenger (pbuh) said, "If a person embraces Islam sincerely, then Allah shall forgive all his past sins, and after that starts the settlement of accounts: the reward of his good deeds will be ten times to seven hundred times for each good deed, and an evil deed will be recorded as it is unless Allah forgive it. 'Wouldst thou that thou shouldst be purified (from sin)?
Human being certainly prone to evil unless my Rubb (Lord) do Bestow His Mercy). You never must submit Satan. Because satan great enemy for mankind. You should not submit absolutely except Allah. Because Allah is your Rubb (The Lord). Mankind should not obey own self desires, passions, feelings, prejudices and whispers of Satan. You shouldn’t be one of arrogant and ignorant humans. Be resolute to enter Islam (the only true way, the Straight Way). Please you should not afraid of truth.
; and if any one believes in Allah (The Only One Ilâh), (Allah) guides his heart (aright): for Allah knows all things. ((64)At-Taqhabun: 11)
Qur’an is the remembrance of Allah and is stated in the Qur’an: "Those who believe (for Muslims), and whose hearts find satisfaction in the remembrance of of Allah: for without doubt in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find satisfaction. (13: 28)
You should return to the Path (Islam) of Allah (Allah is alone worthy of worship). Allah revealled to Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and is stated in Qur’an: And those who strive in Our (cause), - We will certainly guide them to our Paths: For verily Allah is with those who do right. (29: 69)
Life is not a dream. Life is trial and is stated in English Translation of the meaning of Qur’an: The life of this world is only the enjoyment of deception (a deceiving thing). “Everyone is going to taste death, and We shall make a trial of you with evil and with good, and to Us you will be returned.”(21: 35)
Allah hath promised to Believers (Mu’min, one who has faith in Islam), men and women, gardens under which rivers flow, to dwell therein, and beautiful mansions in gardens of everlasting bliss. But the greatest bliss is the Consent of Allah: that is the supreme felicity (triumph). (9: 72)
For those who respond to their Lord, are (all) good things. But those who respond not to Him,- Even if they had all that is in the heavens and on earth, and as much more, (in vain) would they offer it for ransom. For them will the reckoning be terrible: their abode will be Hell, - what a bed of misery! (Ar-Rad, 18)
By (the Token of) Time (through the ages),
Verily Man is in loss,
Except such as have Faith (Faith in Islam), and do righteous deeds, and (join together) in the mutual teaching of Truth, and of Patience and Constancy. (103: 1, 2, 3)
Allah jalla jalaluh revealled Prophet Muhammad (pbuh): Say: "What has come to me by inspiration is that your Allah is One Allah: will yet herefore bow to His Will (in Islam)?" (21: 108)
It is very easy to accept Islam, only one Haqq (absolute truth) Deen (deen, the completely way of life). Your repentance is the testimony of faith. Revive by holding fast to the Rope of Allah (Qur'an). At first you must reject Taghut (Anything worshiped or obeyed other than Allah (jalla jalaluh)). Sincerely Say Shahada (Confession of a Muslim) for your eternal felicity and Do rescue! You should convert from kufr (denying Islam) and shirk (to float true and error) to Islam. Submit your will to Islam and escape monotony: ‘ESH’HADU ANLA ILAHE ILL’ALLAH, WA ESH’ADHU AN’NA MOHAMMED’EN ABDUHU WA RASULUHU’
I bear witness that there is no Ilâh (worthy of worship) except Allah (The Only One Almighty, Only One Rubb (Lord)) and Allah has no partners; and I bear witness that Muhammad is His abeed (servant) and Messenger.
O mankind! Do your duty to your Lord (Rubb) by fearing Allah, and avoid (the coming of) a Day when no father can avail aught for his son, nor a son avail aught for his father. Verily, the promise of Allah is true: let not then this present life deceive you, nor let the chief Deceiver (satan) deceive you about Allah. (Qur’an 31: 33)
REASONS OF KNOWING ISLAM WRONGLY: 1- Unfortunately, Most of human exactly does not know Islam according to Islam. Satan garnished non-islam to Non-Muslims. But Satan disparages Islam with all effort. Some of people has lost its own sense faculties because these people indulge in amusement and comfort in excess. Illegitimate amusement, football, music, secularism and ideologies caused their anaesthetizing. By going through the teachings of Islam, it is clear that such a religion has only come to benefit mankind - not to destroy it. So why is there so much hatred for this noble religion in the West? The answer is simple, the media. It is the Jewish influenced media of the West which has portrayed Islam to be something that it is not. Those are who wanted to deceive human beings, always attack Islam.
2- The most of human approachs with prejudices and pride. They didn’t look up Islam according to Islam. However If they had not approached with prejudice, bigotry and idea obsession. they would have understood Islam. Some of men understand completely way of life is a great problem. This idea is not valid for Islam. This idea is a conjecture and fictitious. Islam presents Divine Laws that guide all aspects of life by distinguishing right from wrong."
3- Destructive deeds of munafiq ("Munafiq" is that disbeliever who claims to be a Muslim by the tongue but denies Islam at heart). Some of munafiqs and the others distorted the meanings of words. With regret, some people knowingly change translations of Holy Qur’an. This unkind behavior causes that some people can misunderstand Holy Qur’an. Learn Islam from true sources. Islam have illuminated universe. Some people can not understand Qur’an and completely can not profit by Qur’an since they have not belief in hereafter. Belive hereafter acoording to Islam.
Your Ilah(alone worthy of worship) is One Ilah, Allah is alone worthy of worship). But for those who believe not in the Hereafter, their hearts deny (the faith in the Oneness of Allah), and they are proud.(16: 22)
Had We sent down this Qur’an on a mountain, verily, thou wouldst have seen it humble itself and cleave asunder for fear of Allah. Such are the similitudes which We propound to men that they may reflect. (59: 21)
4- Most of men confuses with Muslim and Islam. Islam is excellent. There is no fault in Islam. Muslim is a Human being. A Human being can mistake. Mistakes, crimes and sins never attribute Islam. There is no a community of representation in Islam. Communities never represent Islam. Muslims must serve Allah with utmost sincerity.
5- Muslims exactly did not submit Islam with a great sincerity. Most of governments usually did not govern according to Islam. Some Non-Muslim president want to control Muslims and make Muslims in slave for destroying Islam with their all powers. Some imperialist president, missionaries and Zionists exploit for own self benefits wealthes of the countries that Muslims especially lived.
6-The effect of Islam had not showed in Europe in spite of tasawwuf (a mystic way) and Its paths. Tasawwuf is a false way (tariq) and exlectic structure. This is Bid’ah (innovation) related to belief. Tasawwuf is not existing in Islam. Islam is not tasawwuf. Islam is never synthesized with any philosophy, any ideology and any opinion.
Verily, this is My way, leading straight: follow it: follow not (other) paths: they will scatter you about from His (great) path: thus doth He command you. that ye may be righteous. (6:153). It is stated that ‘the other paths’ are ways of bid’ah. Muslim alone belive Islam and not believe Tasawwuf. Muslims alone follow Islam not ways of bid’ah. Muslims rejected all Isms. Musliims submit to Islam not Tasawwuf. Muslims never find a way other than Islam (see Verse 3:85).
7- The problem of language. Arabic is the language of Islam. Words in the other languages may not express the meanings of words in Arabic exactly. This position may cause understanding Islam wrongly.
WHAT IS ISLAM?
ISLAM IS THE ONLY ALONE HAQ (THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH) DEEN (COMPLETELY WAY OF LIFE) FROM ADAM ALAIHIS-SALAM (FIRST HUMAN BEING) TILL FOREVER. ISLAM HAS BELIEF OF TAWHID (LA ELAHE ILLA-ALLAH, MOHAMMADAN RASUL-ALLAH).
"El(the)-Deen (life order) before Allah is Islam (submission to His Will)." (3: 19)
Before word means ‘at the presence of Allah’. Allah choose Islam as a deen for mankind.
To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and (all that is in) the earth and Ad-Deen Wasiba is His [(i.e. perpetual sincere obedience to Allah is obligatory). Allah is alone worthy of worship)]. Will you then fear any other than Allah? (16: 52)
The word Deen literally mean debt, order and completely way of life. Word of deen has a wider mean the word of religion. Deen must cover every field of life. Islam alone cover fields of life. And then we can use religion word for your understanding. Everybody has a belief and deen. Because deen is a life way, life order. True belief and deen is necessity. It is so important that being member of and living acording to true deen.
The word “Islam” literally stems from the root “s-l-m” and the word “silm” and “salamah” which mean peace, and which indicate the “submission” or “surrender” of oneself to Allah Almighty. The name of unique order is Deen, Islam. Islam includes judgements of alone worship to Allah. Islam is one and true deen. A person who believes and live Islam accrording to Islam is a called a “Mu’min” and a “Muslim” (one who has faith in Islam, and who has submitted to Islam or adherent to Islam). Muslim never attribute himself/herself anyone and any religion except Islam. We never said that we are Muhammadian. Islam is not Muhammadism. Muslim must be obidient to His commands, embark on a safe and secure path that leads to salvation, promise a sense of trust to everyone and everything and will not inflict any harm on others. Islam must shape your life. You never shape Islam.
Which then is best? - he that layeth his foundation on piety to Allah and His good pleasure? - or he that layeth his foundation on an undermined sand-cliff ready to crumble to pieces? and it doth crumble to pieces with him, into the fire of Hell. And Allah guideth not people that do wrong. (9: 109)
Religion of Shirk (associate with Allah) completely is the opposite of Tewheed belief in Islam. There isn’t any likeness of these two religion. Shirk is to float true and error. Shirk is two sorts. Major shirk and small shirk. The minor shirk is contrary maturity of Tawhid and iman. The small shirk can turn the great shirk. The great shirk is to reject Faith. Shirk is the greatest sin, and this not forgiven except through sincere repentance. Religion of shirk is narkotic, restrictive, the crop of horror and feodal period. Shirk religion depends on that minority have posses of property and majority is deprived of. Idolatry ıs special form of shirk. Non-muslims are in religion of shirk. Kufr (denying the way of Haq (true way Islam), rejection faith in Islam) is a shirk. Kufr is an anthonym for iman and disbelief in Allah and a Kafir is an non-believer. Faith in Islam is glarification. Rejection faith is thanklessness. Faith is an adhering. Rejection is a breaking. Adhering is to render confident to person. Faith is to know one’s limitation. Rejection is a presumption. Faith in Islam (relying on Allah) is a divine agrement (one sided) which Muslim made it to Allah. Faith in Islam is believing the Oneness of Allah and the finality of the prophethood of Muhammad (pbuh). ‘There is no Ilâh (alone worthy of worship) except Allah (The Only One Almighty) and Muhammad (peace be upon him) is His Messenger.’
Surely Allah does not forgive that anything should be associated with Him, and forgives what is besides that to whomsoever He pleases; and whoever associates anything with Allah, he devises indeed a great sin. (4: 48)
Allah revealled to Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and is stated in the Qur’an: Wherewith Allah guideth all who seek the Consent of Allah to ways of peace and safety and leadeth them out of darkness, by His will, unto the light, - guideth them to a path that is straight. (5: 16)
Islam states clearly that everyone is born with in a state of fitrah and is therefore the Tawhid (There is no Ilâh (alone worthy of worship) except Allah) by nature. We read in the Qur'an that humanity has been created with the natural disposition towards the Tawhid. In the words of the Prophet Muhammad: Islam states clearly that everyone is born with in a state of fitrah. In the words of the Prophet Muhammad: "Each child is born in a state of fitrah, but his parents make him a Jew or a Christian."
0(Muhammad) so set thou thy face steadily and truly to the Faith :( establish) Allah’s handiwork according to the pattern on which He has made mankind: no change (let there be) in the work (wrought) by Allah: that is the standard deen (way of life, life order): but most among mankind understand not. ((30) Ar-Room: 30)
You were not born as a sinner. You have responsibility of alone worshipping Allah. You were born without paying to any requital. You are an obligor. Deen is a consciousness of gratitude and indebtedness. You are in need of Allah jalla jalaluh. Allah is As-Samad (The Eternaly Besought, Free from want, The Satisfier of Every Need).
And Moses (The Messenger of Allah) said: "If ye show ingratitude, ye and all on earth together, yet is Allah free of all wants, worthy of all praise. (14: 8)
Don’t be afraid Islam. There are judgements of justice in Islam. All judgements of Islam are good. Allah is Al-'Adl (He who is Equitable) and Ar-Rahman (He who wills goodness and mercy for all His creatures). Islam is that Qur’an entitled collective name to “right way” of all times and all places. Islam is new world for men endued with understanding. Islam is Islam. Islam is not ideology and philosophy. İslam denies all ideologies. Ideologies are secular and human. Islam is divine Deen (life order). It is stated in English Translation of the meaning of Qur’an: If anyone desires a Deen (Religion) other than Islam (submission to Allah) it will never be accepted from him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (everything). (3 :85). Islam has no dogma. Dogma is for human religion. Islam is one deen (way of life, life order) chosen by Allah for all humanity. Islam is the religion delivered by all Messengers of Allah and Qur’an is the seal of all heavenly revelations. Another religion will not come world. Judgements (rules) of Islam will continue till Doomsday. The religion in Hereafter is Islam. As All Mu’min (one who has faith in Islam) will enter the paradise with The Will of Allah and Mercy of Allah; They will be tranquil in hereafter. Muslim alone fear Allah. They alone love Allah with utmost. As we cannot accomplish this be ourselves, Allah has sent messengers and prophets to guide humanity. All of these chosen individuals have brought the same message (Tawhid) and have served Allah as the best example for gaining the Consent of Allah. Through these selected people, we have been told why mankind was created, what will happen to us after death, and what Allah wants us. But most importantly, we should tell that Allah is unique-He has no partners, no son or daughter, and no competitor. This message always remains the same, whereas the laws laid down for a particular might show some slight differences.
Fain would they extinguish Allah’s light (Islam) with their mouths, but Allah will not allow but that His light should be perfected, even though the Unbelievers may detest (it).
It is he who hath: had sent His Messenger with guidance and completely way of Truth (Islam) to proclaim it over all religion, even though the Pegans may detest (it). (At-Tawba: 32, 33)
Allah has promised us that Islam will prevail and It is stated in the Qur’an: "It is He who has sent His Messenger with the guidance and completely way of Truth (Islam), so that He may make it victorious over all other religions, even though the disbelievers detest it" (Surah As-Saff 61: 9)
Islam is good. Shirk is bad. Goodness and badness are not the same. Goodness and badness have fighted since Adem Alaihis-salam (first human and first Muslim in earth). So. he who has done an atom's weight of good shall see it (99: 7). And he who has done an atom's weight of evil shall see it. (99: 8) Death is truth. Death is the command of Allah. Death is not to vanishing. Souls of animal vanishes when they died. If you behave unjust it, it will get its due with The Will of Allah. There is an Account Day in the herafter. History witnessed Tawheed, Hereafter and Prophets of Allah. If an unbeliever didn’t beleive Hereafter according to Islam, this person certainly injury the result of this false belief.
And if indeed you die or you are slain, certainly to Allah shall you be gathered together. (3: 158)
Peace and felicity must cover afterdeath. Hedonism is not peace and felicity. Eternal peace and felicity are in Islam. Everything in the universe submits to Allah, willing or unwilling. Atoms submit to Allah. They obey judgements of Allah. You should submit your will to Iradhah (Absolute Will) of Allah. Allah ta’ala (Glory be to Him) reveal to Prophet Muhammad (pbuh):
Do they seek for other than deen (Islam) of Allah? -while all creatures in the heavens and on earth have, willing or unwilling, bowed to His Will (submit to Allah), and to Him shall they all be broughtback. (3: 83)
ISLAM IS THE RIGHT PATH FOR GAINING ALLAH’S ACCEPTANCE. There are many religious alternatives available to man and it is up to him to choose the one he wishes to follow. He is like a merchant with many goods in front of him, and it is his choice which one to trade in. He will obviously select the one he thinks will be the most lucrative. However, the merchant is unsure and has no guarantee of prosperity; his product may have a market and he may make handsome returns, but he could just as easily lose all of his money. In contrast, A Muslim who submits to Allah’s Will, is completely sure that if he follows hidayath (the correct path), he or she can be success in this exam with The Help of Allah and gain The Consent of Allah. He reward waiting for him at the end of this path. There is no way taking away you to paradise except Islam. If you not believe and live Islam, life is a play for you.
And the life of this world is nothing but play and amusement. But far better is the house in the Hereafter for those who are Al-¬Muttaqûn [the pious and righteous persons who fear Allah much (abstain from all kinds of sins and evil deeds which He has forbidden) and love Allah much (perform all kinds of good deeds which He has ordained)]. Will you not then understand? (6: 32)
It is not Al-Birr (piety, righteousness, and each and every act of obedience to Allah, etc.) that you turn your faces towards east and (or) west (in prayers); but Al-Birr is (the quality of) the one who believes in Allah, the Last Day, the Angels, the Book, the Prophets and gives his wealth, in spite of love for it, to the kinsfolk, to the orphans, and to Al-Masâkin (the poor), and to the wayfarer, and to those who ask, and to set slaves free, performs As-Salât (Iqâmat-as-Salât), and gives the Zakât, and who fulfill their covenant when they make it, and who are As-Sâbirin (the patient ones, etc.) in extreme poverty and ailment (disease) and at the time of fighting (during the battles). Such are the people of the truth and they are Al ¬Muttaqûn (pious - see V.2:2).
Guide us to the Straight Way. (Al-Fatihah: 6)
The Way of those on whom You have bestowed Your Grace, not (the way) of those who earned Your Anger (such as the Jews), nor of those who went astray (such as the Christians). (Al-Fatihah: 7)
ISLAM SHARIAH (WAY, LAW) LOOKS LIKE SUN. Sunshine looks like vahy (the Inspiration of Allah). When someone overlooked Islam, he/she never see sunshine. In that time, he/she only has darken own self, heart, mind and own life and in this way, they have tyrannized over to ownself with a great tyranny.
It is required that you have Mind (intelligence) for responsibility. Those are who has no intelligence is not responsible from judgements of Islam. Islam attached importance knowledge very much. It commands reading, learning for living Islam according to Islam. A righteous man says: ‘If Science is in Chine, you just get it.’ Islam attaches importance science. As a matter of fact, First command of Qur’an is Proclaim (Read).
1) Proclaim! (or read!) in the name of thy Rubb (Lord) and Cherisher, Who created
2) Created man, out of a (mere) clot of congealed blood:
3) Proclaim! And thy (your) Lord is Most Bountiful,-
4) He Who taught ( the use of ) the pen,-
5) Taught man that which he knew not. (Al-Alaq )
You should recognize yourself. Then you can understand easily Your Creator, Maker, Shaper. Allah is Only and One.
Seeking knowledge is one of the highest types of worship for Muslims. The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) told his companions that "seeking knowledge is a (religious) duty on every Muslim." In another saying he said: "Seeking knowledge for one hour is better than praying for seventy years (for Muslims)."
The heart of unbeliever (one who rejected Islam) is dead and heart has been sealled. The heart, conscience, intelligence and mind of unbelivers are dirty. Muslim’s heart is alive. When Faith (Iman) entered Mu’min’s heart by Will of Allah jalla jalaluh; there is a light of Faith (Iman). Do purify yourself with Islam. If a Muslim commits a sin and transgresses the limits of Allah, that sin, that transgression dots in Muslim heart. If these sins increase more and more, that time that heart becomes black the light reduces in this hearts. Because sins can destroy light in Muslim heart. And if this situation goes on, that person may reject essences of Faith (Iman). That person’s heart may be dead; Allah protects us like this situation. We don’t want to crime, transgress the limits of Allah. Those limits are for happiness of mankind. Islam controls the lives of people with limits. Islam is the greatest blessing of Allah to mankind. You should submit your Will to Absolute Will of Allah for your heart to be ressurrected by Allah. Truth is clear from Falsehood. Muslim can understand truth and falsehood by the Will of Allah. Because Muslims have a light of faith in Islam. Hadrat Imam Al-Hasan bin 'Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I have retained in my memory these words of Allah's Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him), 'Leave what causes you doubt and turn to what does not cause you doubt. Nonbelievers conceal the Truth. It is stated in the Qur’an: And cover not Truth with falsehood, nor conceal the Truth when ye know (what it is). (2; 42)
What is the criterion of truth, goodness and beauty? Knowlodge is to perceive truth.
WHAT KNOWLODGE IS BASED ON?
PLEASE INVESTIGATE YOUR BELIEF AND YOUR LIFE ACCORDING TO TRUTH.
1. Hewa (arbitrary value judgment, desire, instinct, passion):It is hundred percent untrutfull, fake. There is no possibility of truth in hewa.
2. Weheem: Groundless fear. It is a untrutfull knowledge that there is a fake similarity to truth from the angle of attributive. The goal of Whispers of satan generate a weheem in human.
3. Shekk (suspicion, doubt): ıt is the same defience of truth and defience of lie. It is verifiable and refutable. Suspicion is the first station which went to truth. Human firstly worries then was suspicious about it. Then he/she searches for and searcher reach truth. there is no suspicion in real facts (Haqq). Faith (True faith) in Islam is a foreknowlodge. Recejtion Haqq ( one of The Name of Allah, truths who Allah said) is an a prejudice.
4. Zann (presumption): it is so high to defience of truth but there is a little possibility of false, error. Avoid presumption. It does not become in the essences of faith (iman) in Islam Since it carries the possibility of lie, false.
5. Haq (absolute truth, the opposite of falsehood): It is a sort of knowledge. there is no possibility of lie, false and error.
Islam is completely way of Truth (absolute truth). The creterion of the truth (haqq: the opposite of false) is Qur’an (Word of Allah) and Sunnah (the practices and rules of His Prophet Muhammad (upon him be peace and blessings). Haqq surely must be based on the inspration of Allah. Qur’an and Sunnah based on the inspriation (vahy) of Allah. Allah revealled to Hadrad Muhammad (pbuh): … It is no less than inspiration sent down to him: (53: 1-4)
Allah is free from to be mistaken, error. Allah jalla jalaluh is Haqq (The Truth). The Word of Allah and Sunnah are truth. Vahy is superior to mind and intelligence. Mankind and science make mistake and err. The inoccuracy of scientific knowlodge is proveded from scientific way. The knowlodge of conjecture don’t belong to lore.
SOURCES OF ISLAMIC TEACHINGS
The Islamic way of life is based on the teachings and laws found in the Qur'an and the example (Sunnah) of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). The Qur'an is the word of Allah and was revealed in potions to Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), via the Angel Gabriel, over a twenty-three year period. Each portion was recorded in writing by his official scribes and memorized by thousands of his followers. After his death, the written collection was given to Abu Bark, the first caliph, who oversaw its collection into one volume. The third caliph, Uthman, prepared several copies and sent them to different Muslim territories. Ever since that time, the same version has been used by Muslims. The wording, order, and language have never been altered in the slightest manner. No other book claiming to be a divine revelation can make this claim, and no one has ever been able to refute the claim of the Qur'an to complete authenticity.
The Sunnah consists of the teachings, sayings, and actions of Prophet Muhammad. This information was meticulously reported and collected by his Companions. It is essentially an elaboration of the Qur'anic verses that shows how they are to be implemented in one's daily life.
The Reward of following The Sunnah: Hadrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) said that the Prophet (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) said, "Whoever will hold fast to my Sunnah when corruption shall prevail among men will earn the reward of a hundred martyrs." (Baihaqi) ( This reward is For Muslims)
Not to follow the ways of others: Hadrat Abdullah Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah's Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) as saying, "He who copies any people is one of them." (Ahmad and Abu Dawud).
Does any of you wish that he should have a garden with date-palms and vines and streams flowing underneath, and all kinds of fruit, while he is stricken with old age, and his children are not strong ( enough to look after themselves )- that it should be caught in a whirlwind, with fire therein, and be burnt up? Thus doth Allah make clear to you (His) verses; that ye (You) may consider (Al-Baqara, 266)
The likeness of the life of the present is as the rain which We send down from the skies: by its mingling arises the produce of the earth- which provides food for men and animals: (It grows) till the earth is clad with its golden ornaments and is decked out (in beauty ): the people to whom it belongs think they have all powers of disposal over it: There reaches it Our command by night or by day, and We make it like a harvest clean-mown, as if it had not flourished only the day before! thus do We explain the Evidences in detail for those who reflect. (10: 24)
FIVE PILLARS (ESSENCES) OF ISLAM
1. KELIMAH SAHADAH (Testimony of Faith, accepting that Islam is one true way): ‘ESH’HADU ANLA ILAHE ILL’ALLAH, WA ESH’ADHU AN’NA MOHAMMED’EN ABDUHU WA RASULUHU’
I bear witness that there is no Ilâh (alone worthy of worship) except Allah, Who is Alone and has no partners; And I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and messenger. If you say Kalimah Shahadah sincerely by heart, you are a Muslim.
The cleaning of There is no Ilâh except Allah: You just must accept that Allah is Ilah (alone worthy of worship).
You just must worship and invoke Allah. The meaning of Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah: It means total submission to him in whatever he ordered, and avoiding what he forbade and believing in all those matters he informed us about.
The belief (faith) in Allah as the Creator of the universe is the base of Islam and the criterion of thought, education, behavior and action of a Muslim. Belief in Allah, in Islam is based on Qur’an, Sunnah and logical evidence. Islam disapproves of imitation.
There is a belief of Tawhid in Islam. Islam gives tewheed to opinion and guidance to life. Tawhid word is “LA ELAHE ILLA-ALLAH, MOHAMMADAN RASUL-ALLAH.” Allah has no partner. The opposite of Tawhid is polytheism (shirk). Shirk is joining in worship (others) with Allah.
Iman (Faith) means to believe in the heart. to confess by the tonque is not belief but it is required that a person must confess by the tonque once life for recogizing him as a Muslim. To reject to Faith in Islam is the opposite of Faith. Rejection is to not recognize, to not know. Faith is result and testimony of knowledge. Faith (iman) is a light in heart (It is spiritual) of Muslim (one who has faith, and who has submitted). There can be any variation in Islam by some words and deeds it may increase and by some words and deeds it may decrease. The light of Iman (Faith) increases by obedience to Allah and good deeds while it decreases by sins and evil acts.
Iz’an is conscious obedience. “ihsan” (blessings) and “ikhlas” (sincerity) that is acting or living as if seeing Allah (The Only One Almighty) and doing everything only for gaining the Consent of Allah Almighty.
True belief in Islam is weak without worshipping Allah faithfully. Allah is The Creator and the Owner of His creatures. He grants them His grace. Allah is alone worthy of worship. The faith in Muslim’s heart should prove with good deeds. Faith alone is worth. But this is not enough. Faith should be supported with good deeds.
A person who believes and practices Islam is a called a “Mu’min” not Islamist and a “Muslim” (one who has faith, and who has submitted). Mushrik is a person who worship and invoke human, angel or idols. Whereas creatures must alone worship and invoke Allah. Mushrik is a person who love anyone as he/she love Allah (The Only One Almighty). Whereas you love Allah with uppermost sincerety.
And whatever of blessings and good things you have, it is from Allah. Then, when harm touches you, unto Him you cry aloud for help. (16, 53)
Then, when He has removed the harm from you, behold! Some of you associate others in worship with their Lord (Allah). (16; 54) English Translation of the meaning of Qur’an.
So (as a result of that) they deny (with ungratefulness) that (Allah's Favours) which We have bestowed on them! Then enjoy yourselves (your short stay), but you will come to know (with regrets). (16;55)
Allah inspired Hadrad Muhammad (pbuh) to this verse for saying to Pagans.
Make not another object of worship with Allah: I am from Him a Warner to you, clear and open. (Adh-Dhariyat: 51)
Allah say: And We did not send any Messenger before you (O Muhammad) but We inspired him (saying): Lâ ilâha illa Ana (There is no Ilah except Allah), so worship Me (Alone and none else)."(Al-Anbiya:25) Explanation: The word of ‘We’ purports glorification, sublimity.
Branches of Faith: Hadrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah's Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) as saying, "Faith has over seventy branches, the most excellent of which is the declaration that there is no Ilâh (Allah is alone worthy of worship) except Allah, and the humblest of which is the removal of what is injurious from the road. And modesty is a branch of faith." (Bukhari and Muslim)
2. TO ESTABLISH SALAT (Prayers): Salat is a light, a remembrance of Allah and symbol of submission over our Rubb (Lord). We don’t kiss earth in prayers. No one do make instead of another person. Allah says:”Surely prayer restrains one from indecency and manifest evil." The Holy Prophet said: "This is the case with Salât (the five daily prayers) Allah makes the Salât wipe out his sins". Namaz is cleanliness, purity. A Muslim must be pure and clean when he performs his prayer, (otherwise his prayers will not be valid). At-Taharah is of two types: Wudu’, (Ablution) and Ghusl (full Ablution).
Everyone has a qible (qiblah). When we worship, We turn towards Kâbe (There is a light of Allah) which is centre of world and house of Allah (the house is worthy and sacred place for Muslims). We turn towards Kâbe for a command of Allah. We don’t worship Kâbe. We don’t want to help Kâbe. Turning towards to Kâbe obtains a unity at worship for Muslim.
THE WISDOMS OF PRAY: The Muslim observes his Prayers to show devotion to Islam and obedience to Allah, because Prayer is one of the greatest forms of worship that Allah likes His servants to offer.
Muslims thank Alllah for creating us in the best form of creation. Allah has guided us to the Deen (Completely way of Life, Religion) of Islam.
Prayer is an oppurtunity for a Muslim to express to his Rubb (Lord) whatever he feels and needs through Divine Words of Allah i.e. the Qur’an. Muslims remember the name of Allah and not forget His commands amid life’s pre-occupations. Muslims ask Allah, The Exalted, to give them aid and continuous guidance in the darkness of life. Muslim strengthen love and fear of Allah in the Muslim’s heart so that they might remain sticking to Islam, and its laws and manners. Muslims gain good rewards from Allah and having our sins forgiven. Muslims rejoice when They find themself on the Last Day pleased with the great reward allotted to them in the Gardens of Bliss.
Prayer is a unique training and developmental program which, if well and devotedly performed, can achieve for Muslims many valuable gains such as cleanliness, health, order, punctuality, brotherhood, equality, social consolidation,… etc.
We pray five times everyday: The Fajr (dawn) prayer, The Dhuhr (noon) prayer, The Asr (Late afternoon) prayer, The Maghrib (Sunset) prayer, The Isha’ (Evening) prayer.
3. PAY ZAKAT (Regular Charity): According to religion Islam; Rich persons must give regular charity to poor persons a determinated amount in every year.
4. SAUM(FASTING) IN RAMADAN: In every year, Every Muslim obliged to fast a month in Ramadan completely. Fasting is purification for Muslims.
Allah says:“ 0, you who believe fasting is prescribed to you as it was prescribed to those before you, that you may attain piety. ” Fasting was prescribed to previous nations too as a means of purification and help against life's inconveniences, because fasting requires patience, and patience is one of the strongest means for acquiring the happiness in the Hereafter.
5.HAJJ (pilgrimage to the Sacred House) if one can afford the journey: In our religion Islam; a Muslim must go Hajj in the life if that person reaches power. Hajj is done with body and financial. In Hajj, Hajj implants to men the ides of equality. To go to the Holy places where Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was borned and lived, and to see the Holy Place gives a psychological excitement. In every various part of World, people who have different races come there. Brotherhood increases perfectly.
Ibaadah [‘worship’ (meaning honour)] is praise, a benediction, gratitude. Worship is the gratitude shown to the source of grace and blessing and acknowledgement of Allah’s favors and obedience to Allah’s orders. Obeying Allah propels man to break the shackles of servitude to any party except Allah. The feeling of freedom and dignity intensifies in man. A Muslim can worship (ibaadah) every clean places of earth. If you want alone worship Allah, Niyyah (Niyyat: The formal intention which one makes in one’s mind before starting a Prayer) for worship is necessary. Otherwise if a pure intention is not in worship, there is no worth, Allah knows. Prayer (Salât) only to obey Allah and to gain the Consent of Allah.
Niyyah (Intention): On the authority of the Commander of the Faithful, Sayyidina Abu Hafs, 'Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) who said: I heard Prophet Muhammad (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) say:
"Actions are but by intention and every man shall have only that which he intended. Thus he whose migration was for Allah and His Messenger, his migration was for Allah and His Messenger, and he whose migration was to achieve some worldly benefit or to take some woman in marriage, his migration was for that for which he migrated". (Bukhari, Muslim)
Ihsan is uppermost degree among Iman-Islam-Ihsan. The main goal of Iman and Islam is to obtain good manners (morality). Ihsan is doing deeds for gaining the Consent of Allah.
SIX PILLARS OF IMAN (FAITH) IN DEEN- I (WAY OF LIFE) ISLAM
A Muslim must believe six pillars of Faith.That is to say, a Muslim must believe Qur’an and Sunnah (the sayings and doings of the Prophet Muhammad). The Sunnah of Hadrad Muhammad (pbuh) based on vahy (the revelation of Allah) There are six main points of Faith. Allah revealled to Prohet Muhammad (pbuh):
He who obeys the Messenger, obeys Allah: But if any turn away, We have not sent thee to watch over their (evil deeds).(4:80). English Translation of the meaning of the Qur’an. A Muslim must obey Allah (The Only One Almighty)’s judgements and Hadrad Muhammad (pbuh).
"…So take what the Messenger (Muhammad (pbuh)) assigns to you, and deny yourselves that which he withholds from you. And fear Allah; for Allah is strict in Punishment." (Al-Hashr: 7)
TO BELIVE ALLAH JALLA JALALUH:
KNOWING AND RECOGNIZING ALLAH JALLA JALALUH
A human is the servant of Allah. At first; a human should know Allah’s existence and recognize Allah according to Holy Book Qur’an and Sunnah of Hadrad Muhammad (pbuh). Because Holy Qur’an and Sunnah(judgements of his Messenger) of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) are absolute truth. Allah has ninety nine names. The Most Beautiful Names manifested universe. When you looked at you and the universe, you can see the fact that Names of Allah is known. You can see that there is fine order in universe. You can see that there is no contradiction in the creation of skies and earth. You can see the evidences of Allah’s existence in universe. You can know Allah with the Most Beautiful Names easily. The name Allah in Islam never refers to Muhammad (pbuh), as many Christians (Mushrikoon) may think; Allah is the proper name of The Creator. God word and the name of Allah are different words. Saying word of God is not permissible except Tawheed and Shahada (Confession of a Muslim) for understanding. Because god name is a general and appellative name. Allah is the proper name of Our Rubb (The Lord) and Our Creator.
Allah is The Creator: Allah is who created all living creatures from nonexistent, He determines their existence, conditions and events.
Allah is the Creator, the Evolver, the Bestower of Forms (or Colours). To Him belong the Most Beautiful Names: whatever is in the heavens and on earth, doth declare His Praises and Glory: and He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise. (Al-Hashr, 24) English Translation of the meaning of Qur’an.
It is Allah who creates you and takes your souls at death; and of you there are some who are sent back to a feeble age, so that they know nothing after having known (much): for Allah is All-Knowing, All-Powerful.(16, 70)
If you look at this verse, Satan accepted that Allah is The Creator. But Satan did not accept that Allah is Rubb and Al-Hakeem (The Judge, The Wise) and Satan bacame Kaafir (someone who denied the Judgement of Allah)
38:75 ((Allah)) said: "O Iblis! What prevents thee from prostrating thyself towards one (Adam was a qiblah) whom I have created with my hands? Art thou haughty? Or art thou one of the high (and mighty) ones?"
38:76 (Iblis) said: "I am better than he: you created me from fire, and him youu created from clay."
Is then He, Who creates as one who creates not? Will you not then remember? (16: 17)
Allah! There is no Ilah(alone worthy of worship) except Allah: of a surety He will gather you together against the Day of Judgment, about which there is no doubt. And whose word can be truer than Allah's? (4: 87)
O men! Call to mind the grace of Allah unto you! is there a creator, other than Allah, to give you sustenance from heaven or earth? There is no Ilâh (worthy of worship) but Allah: how then are ye deluded away from the Truth? (35: 3)
Have you ever watched your finger with view of lesson?
Your finger and cohesive claw is alive. But the surplus age of your finger is not alive. Your finger is alive as much as fingertip. Your claw is not alive after fingertip. Al-Muhyi and Al-Mumiyt names of Allah manifest. Allah is Al-Muhyi (The Giver of Life):
He who confers life, gives vitality, revives. Al-Mumiyt (The Taker of Life): He who creates the death of a living creature.It is stated in the Surah Al-Qıyama of Qur’an: 3 Does man think that We cannot assemble his bones?
4 Nay, We are able to put together in perfect order the very tips of his fingers.
What do you do when you squalled in the middle of the see?
Who has made the earth a resting place for you, and the sky as a canopy, and sent down water (rain) from the sky and brought forth therewith fruits as a provision for you. Then do not set up rivals unto Allah (in worship) while you know (that He Alone has the right to be worshipped). (2: 22)
But when A Muslim prayed he/she is at the Presence of Allah. You haven’t any mediator for worshipping Allah. Muslims always seek refuge in and invoke Allah. Allah is The Rubb (Lord) of earths and skies. Allah is The Suprime One. You should ask Allah’s help from Allah for providing your hidayath (guidance).
“He it is Who enableth you to traverse through land and sea; so that ye even board ships; - they sail with them with a favourable wind, and they rejoice thereat; then comes a stormy wind and the waves come to them from all sides, and they think they are being overwhelmed: they cry unto Allah, sincerely offering (their) duty unto Him saying, "If thou dost deliver us from this, we shall truly show our gratitude!"(10: 22)
“But when he delivereth them, behold! they transgress insolently through the earth in defiance of right!O mankind! Your insolence is against your own souls,- an enjoyment of the life of the present: in the end, to Us is your return, and We shall show you the truth of all that ye did.” (6: 23)
Say: Tell me if the chastisement of Allah should overtake you or the hour should come upon you, will you call (on others) besides Allah, if you are truthful? (6:40) These verses prove that the Belief (Iman) in Allah exists in nature of human. Mushrik will believe Allah in hereafter and is stated in the Qur’an. Atheists, Jews, Christians, freemasons, communists, Sophists are all “Mushrik”.
But when they saw Our Punishment, they said: We believe in Allah, the One Allah and we reject the partners we used to join with Him.(40:84)
But their professing the Faith when they (actually) saw Our Punishment was not going to profit them. (Such has been) Allah's way of dealing with His servants (from the most ancient times). And even thus did the rejecters of Allah perish (utterly)! (40:85)
Mind is a great blessing and bounty of Allah. Mind and intelligence is a the skill in order to recognize Allah. It is a means that mind supplies to know Allah and to confirm Messengers of Allah. Intelligence and mind have no ability of knowing everything which is wanted from servant so that Messengers sent by Allah and Holy Books sent down to mankind. Eye and intelligence err. The Holy Book Qur’an and Sunnnah of Hadrad Muhammad (pbuh) are unfallible.
Allah alone has divine attributes. He is the absolute existence. He is without fault and no one is like Him in His attributes. Allah is the Exalted any fault the polytheists attribute to Allah. The belief in the Oneness of Allah cannot be comprehended except after stating the attributes, which are His. They are the "attributes of perfection", like the absolute power, the absolute knowledge, the absolute will, eternal being, wisdom, creator, etc. Imperfection, need for time and space, evil, incarnation, movement, physical being, etc are the "negative attributes". Allah is free from the negative attributes. Belief in Allah's Oneness is also belief in His actions. He can do whatever He wills and no one can repeal Allah's will, or do what He does.
The Divine Attributes of Allah is classified in two groups: the Divine Attributes of the Being of Allah (al Sifat al-Dhatiyyah) are six and the immutable of the Divine Essence of Allah (al-Sifat-al-Thubutiyyah) are eight. The Divine Attributes of the Existence of Allah are six. Al-Wujud (Allah is the Existing One). Human’s intelligence and mind are restricted. Mankind never understands How Allah is. You know Allah by His evidences and creation like the day and night; the sun and the moon; the heaven and the earth, and all that is there in and between them. If there is nothing in universe except one atom, that is an evidence of existence of Allah. Al-Qidam (He is the Pre-Eternal One). When anything is nonexistent, Allah exists. Al-Baqah (He is the Everlasting One). Everything will die except Allah. Al-Wahdaniyyah (He is the Unique One). The oneness of Allah is not as a number. Allah is One as Allah is unique- Allah has no partner, son, daughter, helper, mediator or competitor. Al-Mukhalafatun lil Khawadith (Allah is Unlike the Created). Allah is never imagined, perceived and thought by creatures in their own minds. Allah never looks like creatures. There is nothing that even remotely resembles Him, for He is unique. Allah is free from way, soul, body, being the direct opposite, changing, need for time and space, evil, incarnation, movement, side, physical and spiritual being, distance, nearness, gender, affinity etc. Eye, intelligence and mind are created by Allah. Divine attributes of Allah are eternal. Limited one never comprehend How Allah is. Allah is the Exalted human qualities like dependence and need. Al-Qiyam bi’nafsihi (Allah is the Self-Existing One). Allah exists by self. His existence never connected to anything.
The Immutable Attributes of the Divine Essence of Allah are eight. Al-Hayat (He is the Living and Resurrecting One), Al-Ilm (He is the All-Knowing One: Allah knows everything . The knowing of Allah never looks like the knowing of creatures. He knows the secret intentions of the heart), Al-Sami (He is the All-Hearing One: Allah hears everything. The hearing of Allah never looks like the hearing of creatures), Al-Baseer (He is the All-Seeing One: Allah can see a black ant crawling on a black rock in the dark of night and He can hear the sound of its moving limbs. The seeing of Allah never looks like the seenig of creatures. Al-Iradhah (He has Absolute Will: Allah has the quality of divine Determination so that He does whatever He wishes and in whatever manner He wishes), Al-Qudrah (He is the Omnipotent, the Almighty One, and He has power over all things), Al-Qalam (His Speech is Unique; Allah speaks without need of letters or sounds. His speech never looks like the speech of creatures.), Al-Taqwin (He is the Creator from nothing of all things and beings).
Jews, Christians and those are who worship to fire, all of them believe Allah. But they don’t belive Allah according to Islam. But when all of them had defined Allah, They made mistakes about defining Allah. Mushrik is an one who worship except Allah. Those are who are Mushrikun (unbelievers) never correctly know and recognize Allah unless they believed that Islam is only true way and unique order. Qur’an and Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) correctly introduce Allah. Christians attributed Jesus with attributes of Allah. And they worshipped and invoked Prophet Eisa as an ilah (worthy of worship). So they joined Prophet Eisa as a equal with Allah. Prophet Eisa (Jesus) is a Human. He had eaten, sleeped like the other living beings. He will die after descending before Doomsday. He and His mother are mortal. Prophet Eisa, mankind and angels are the creatures of Allah. Creatures can never be The Creator, The Knower of All, The All-Seeing, The Creator of All Power, The All Powerful. Prophet Eisa is a Muslim and Messenger of Allah. TRINITY IS SHIRK. Shirk is the greatest sin in Islam. In Muslim’s heart faith and shirk never together with each other. (Today, Trinity which Christians believed in, appeared after He raised to heavens. There aren’t 3 gods. Trinity based on philosophy of Greek and idolatry. Trinity based on platonism. Trinity and is a erring and a falsehood. Unfourtunately, Most of men follow conjecture. )
They say: "Allah hath begotten a son!" - Glory be to Him! He is self-sufficient! His are all things in the heavens and on earth! No warrants have ye for this! say ye about Allah what ye know not? (10:, 68)
The Jews call ‘Uzair a son of Allah and the Christians call Eisa (Christ) the son of Allah. That is a saying from their mouth; (in this) they but imitate what the unbelievers of old used to say. Allah's curse be on them: how they are deluded away from the Truth! (Qur’an, 9: 30)
Allah has no son, wife, daughter. Allah is free from penetrating. It is stated in the Surah of Al- Ikhlas:
1 Say: He is Allah, the One and Only; 2 Allah, the Eternal, Absolute;
3 He begetteth not, nor is He begotten; 4 And there is none like unto Him.
If there were, in the heavens and the earth, other gods besides Allah, there would have been confusion in both! but glory to Allah, the Lord of the Throne: (High is He) above what they attribute to Him! (Qur’an, 21: 22) English Translation of the meaning of Qur’an.
There is no Ilah (alone worthy of worship) and Rubb (Lord) Except Allah. Allah is The Creator who is The Only One Almighty. Allah is Owner of All: The King of the Kingdom.
He merges Night into Day, and he merges Day into Night, and he has subjected the sun and the moon (to his Law): each one runs its course for a term appointed. Such is Allah your Lord: to Him belongs all Dominion. And those whom ye invoke besides Him have not the least power. (35: 13)
Allah is the Only One Lord (Rubb) of nonexistence, moon, sun worlds and all creatures. Allah is the wisest of judges. Allah is The Owner of All (The King of the Kingdom) and The Absolute Ruler (The Ruler of the entire universe (King of Kings)). My Rubb is Allah who has created me and all living beings. He nourishes me and all creatures by His Bounties. Allah puts forward the example (of two men a believer and a disbeliever); a slave (disbeliever) under the possession of another, he has no power of any sort, and (the other), a man (believer) on whom We have bestowed a good provision from Us, and He spends thereof secretly and openly. Can they be equal? (By no means). All the praises and thanks be to Allah. Nay! (But) most of them know not. (16: 75) Allah created you and you are one of the servant of Allah. If you do not accept servitude to Allah, unfourtunately, you obliged to be servant of servants. You alone serve Allah according to Islam, Do become free utmost from non-muslims. Mankind look like a guest in this present world. Your life is temprorary. But life in hereafter is eternal with the Will of Allah. A human is not immortal. A human wants to paradise and eternal happiness. we don’t see Allah in this world. Allah makes a trial of mankind and jinns. If you want to win it, become Muslim and live Islam according to Islam. If you gain the Consent of Allah, you won the trail with The Help of Allah. You never see Allah in this present world. Because, Allah makes a trial of you. If Allah show yourself to you, the trial would be meaningless. That time, because you would have obliged to believe Allah. But you should believe Allah according to Islam without seeing. If Allah had shown yourself to you; the light of Allah would burn you. Nobody has see Allah. Hadrad Moses had wanted to see but he had not seen Allah. (see verse 7:143)
What is the purpose of creation of mankind and jinns?
Allah created mankind and jinns to alone worship Allah. Allah created the world and then created Adam alaissalam from clay. The purpose of Muslims is gaining the Consent of Allah. If you live without this purpose you are disappointed in this world and hearafter !
Mankind and the universe were not created by accident or chance, but according to the plan of the Creator. You are not footloose human in this present world.
Allah said that ‘I have not created the jinn and mankind except to worship (ibaadah) Me ’No Sustenance do I require of them, nor do I require that they should feed Me. For Allah is He Who gives (all) Sustenance, - Lord of Power, - Steadfast (for ever). (Adh-Dhariyat, 56-58)
It was We Who created man, and We know what dark suggestions his soul makes to him: for We are nearer to him than (his) jugular vein. (50: 16)
"In the creation of the heavens and the earth and in the alternation of the night and the day there are indeed evidences for men of understanding;"Those who remember Allah while standing, sitting, and lying on their sides, and ponder over th e creation of the heavens and the earth: "Our Lord, Thou hast not created this in vain; nay, Holy art Thou; save us, then, from the punishment of The Fire.” (3: 19l-192) English Translation of the meaning of Qur’an.
This verse beautifully tells us that when a worshipper reflects upon the structure of the Universe he understands that universe is not created without in vain.
Allah has created us out of nothing, And made us in the best form. He has given us all graces and bounties. Hence we are not permitted to submit absolutely, to worship or invoke to any other than Him, whether a favorite Angel or a chosen Prophet!
And Allah has brought you forth from the (dust of) earth. (71: 17)
Mankind needs Allah.
O ye men! It is ye that have need of Allah: but Allah is the One Free of all wants, worthy of all praise. (35: 15)
He to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth: no son has He begotten, nor has He a partner in His dominion: it is He who created all things, and ordered them in due proportions. (25: 2)
And if all the trees on earth were pens and the ocean (were ink), with seven oceans behind it to add to its (supply), yet would not the words of Allah be exhausted (in the writing): for Allah is Exalted in Power, full of Wisdom. (31: 25)
You should not reject Allah (The Only One Almighty, Suprime Being) as you can not see Allah. If you don’t believe Allah according to Islam, your life has not meaning. Muslims don’t see Allah in the present world but trust and believe Allah So that Muslims are tranquil. Islam Shariah (law) looks like a sun. Mind looks like an eye. If Your mind opens and is strong, it sees sunshine by The Will of Allah.
Who is the friend of Allah?
The friends of Allah: Those are the friends of Allah who believe Islam is only true way and live Islam according to Islam as pious and righteous, fear Him much abstain from all kinds of sins and perform all kinds of goods, and holdfast to the Qur’an and Sunnah.
Unproved love is a hollow love. Do you love and fear Allah? Allah revealed to Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)
Say: "If ye do love Allah, Follow me (Hadrad Muhammad(pbuh): Allah will love you and forgive you your sins: For Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful." (3: 31)
Those truly fear Allah, among His Servants, who have knowledge (Muslims): for Allah is Exalted in Might, Oft-Forgiving. (Qur’an, 35: 28)
Allah is Al-'Aliym: The Knower of All (He who has full knowledge of all things.). Allah is The All-Seeing and the Hearer of All. Your past, present and future is the whole. Allah sees the whole. You can see a part of the whole by Will of Allah. Your duty is submitting your will and mind to Allah who is the All-Seeing. You should know that beneficences, favors, goodnesses are from Allah. And you should know evil, badness, calamities are from yourself.
That is because Allah is Haqq (The Truth), and because whatever else they invoke besides Him is Falsehood; and because Allah, - He is the Most High, Most Great. (31: 30)
Allah created the heavens and the earth in six days (phase). But He did not rest on seventh day, Because He never get tired. Allah is perfect, Exalted in Power, full of Wisdom.
It is He Who made the sun to be a shining glory and the moon to be a light (of beauty), and measured out stages for her; that ye might know the number of years and the count (of time). Nowise did Allah create this but in truth and righteousness. (Thus) doth He explain His verses in detail, for those who understand. (10: 5)
It is stated the conversation with Prophet Abraham and a man (pharaoh or Namrud)
"Hast thou not Turned thy vision to one who disputed with Abraham About his Rubb (Lord), because Allah had granted him power? Abraham said: "My Lord is He Who Giveth life and death." He said: "I give life and death". Said Abraham: "But it is Allah that causeth the sun to rise from the east: Do thou then cause him to rise from the West." Thus was he confounded who (in arrogance) rejected faith. Nor doth Allah Give guidance to a people unjust. (2: 258)
Allah is The Resurrector: He who brings the dead to life, and raises them from their tombs.
It is Allah who sends forth the Winds, so that they raise up the Clouds, and we drive them to a land that is dead, and revive the earth therewith after its death: even so (will be) the Resurrection! (35: 9)
When Abraham said:” Show me, Lord, how You will raise the dead, "He replied: "Have you no faith?" He said "Yes, but just to reassure my heart." Allah said, "Take four birds, draw them to you, and cut their bodies to pieces. Scatter them over the mountain-tops, then call them back. They will come swiftly to you. Know that Allah is Mighty, Wise." (2: 260)
And your creation or your resurrection is in no wise but as an individual soul: for Allah is He Who hears and sees (all things). (31:28)
Seest thou not that Allah merges Night into Day and he merges Day into Night; that He has subjected the sun, and the moon (to his Law), each running its course for a term appointed; and that Allah is well-acquainted with all that ye do? (31:29)
It is He Who sendeth the winds like heralds of glad tidings, going before His mercy: when they have carried the heavy-laden clouds, We drive them to a land that is dead, make rain to descend thereon, and produce every kind of harvest therewith: thus shall We raise up the dead: perchance ye may remember. (7: 57)
Allah knows qayb (unseen, unknow). Allah alone know everything. You can know some knowlodge of past and present with The Will of Allah. Islam is not mysterious field. It is required that you should know that Belief in Qayb, truths about qayb are not secrets and mysteries. There is benefit in secret. But Allah is free from to obtain benefit. Islam is collection of divine rules and revelations that raises human beings above the level of the animals, and a way to enter the paradise with The Will of Allah.
The unseen (qayb)’s keys are five. Noone definetely knows them except Allah. It is stated in the Qur’an : Surely Allah is He with Whom is the knowledge of the hour, and He sends down the rain and He knows what is in the wombs; and no one knows what he shall earn on the morrow; and no one knows in what land he shall die; surely Allah is Knowing, Aware.(31: 34)
Certainly, Allah knows what they conceal and what they reveal. Truly, He likes not the proud.(16,23)
With Him are the keys of the unseen (qayb), the treasures that none knoweth but He. He knoweth whatever there is on the earth and in the sea. Not a leaf doth fall but with His knowledge: there is not a grain in the darkness (or depths) of the earth, nor anything fresh or dry (green or withered), but is (inscribed) in a record clear (to those who can read). (6: 59)
Allah is Al-'Adl (He who is Equitable). The attribute of Allah is justice. He does not do injustice to anyone, nor does He deny anything beneficial to mankind. He does not resort to injustice because He does not need to, nor is He unaware of it. He created everything on the basis of justice and right. He does not order injustice, nor does He approve of it. He does not coerce man to do something then punish him for it, nor does He order man to do something beyond his ability. He does not leave people without reward or punishment. He sent the prophets and revealed Deen (religion) to save people and guide them to the right path (Islam) so that we would know how to obey and worship Him.
Allah's justice is known when you saw events in universe. For example:
Creation: He does not do injustice to anyone in respect to His creation. He creates everything in justice and right. We can see this in the creation of the human body. He creates man in a way that he can live on earth, grants him hearing, sight, emotions, mentality, and the ability to move.
Destiny: Allah causes death, provision, events that befall man and everything else on the basis of justice. Man is compensated for the pains he suffers in this life, as willed by Him, by granting him more grace than the pains he sustained.
Obligations and Laws: Divine obligations and laws are distinguished by being just. Allah does not impose any duty on His servants above their abilities. So, all the obligations are within man's capability. The prominent manifestations of divine justice are the call to social equality, administration of justice between people, and fighting oppressors, for injustice is forbidden.
Freedom of Choice: Allah grants man the ability to choose. Man can choose freely for himself. He can do good by helping the poor, respecting parents, offering prayers, and discharging justice. He can also do evil like murder, alcohol and drug use, stealing, backbiting and slander, etc. Allah never forces anyone to do anything. If He did, man would not deserve rewards or punishment in proportion to his good and evil deeds. The repentance of Non-Muslims is Shahada (Confession of a Muslim).
Punishment and Reward in the Hereafter: The good and upright ones receive Allah's grace. The evil doers are punished according to their bad deeds. If this were not so, than the doer of good and the evil doer would be equal. This is injustice and Allah is incapable of injustice.
Everyone is responsible for his own deeds: Allah never punishes anyone for something someone else has done, except when he is the one who incites to evil. In this case he is an accomplice in the evil deed.
What does "Balaa" mean?
It is a covenant (mithaq). That is, Allah asked when He created all souls: "Am I not your Lord (Rubb)"? They answered "Yes, for certain you are our Lord (Rubb) (Balaa)." Thus, I have been a Muslim from that time.
When thy Lord drew forth from the Children of Adam-from their loins-their descendants, and made them testify concerning themselves, (saying): "Am I not your Lord (who cherishes and sustains you)?"- They said: "Yea! We do testify!" (This), lest ye should say on the Day of Judgment: "Of this we were never mindful": Or lest ye should say: "Our fathers before us may have taken false ilâhaîn (two gods in worship, etc.), but we are (their) descendants after them: wilt Thou then destroy us because of the deeds of men who were futile?" (7: 172, 173)
Know Allah is One and Only. Fear Allah! If thou (You) couldst but see when they are confronted with their Lord! He will say: "Is not this the truth?" They will say: "Yea, by our Lord!" He will say: "Taste ye (You) then the penalty, because ye rejected Faith."
Allah explained that when He created Adam, He caused all of Adam's descendants to come into existence and took a pledge from them saying, Am I not your Lord? To which they all replied, " Yes, we testify to It!'
It is He Who sendeth down rain from the skies: with it We produce vegetation of all kinds: from some We produce green (crops), out of which We produce grain, heaped up (at harvest); out of the date-palm and its sheaths (or spathes) (come) clusters of dates hanging low and near: and (then there are) gardens of grapes, and olives, and pomegranates, each similar (in kind) yet different (in variety): when they begin to bear fruit, feast your eyes with the fruit and the ripeness thereof. Behold! in these things there are evidences for people who believe. (6: 99)
Allah! Lâ ilâha illa Huwa (There is no Ilah except Allah), the Ever Living, the One Who sustains and protects all that exists. Neither slumber, nor sleep overtake Him. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on earth. Who is he that can intercede with Him except with His Permission? He knows what happens to them (His creatures) in this world, and what will happen to them in the Hereafter. And they will never compass anything of His Knowledge except that which He wills. His Kursî extends over the heavens and the earth, and He feels no fatigue in guarding and preserving them. And He is the Most High, the Most Great. [This Verse 2:255 is called Ayat-ul-Kursî.]
2- ) TO BELIVE ANGELS OF ALLAH: Angels are no man and no woman. The angels are creatures of light. They are Allah's obedient slaves, they do that which they are commanded and are incapable of disobedience. There are four big angels. These are Gabriel (The Angel of revelation), Azrael (The angel of death), Mikael (Mikael is duty of natural events), Israfael (Archangel seraph): Israfeal will inform time of Doomsday with instrument (like a big whistle). There are also two angels sides of human. One of them is right side; the other is left side. The angel who Right side existed, writes good things, righteous deeds. The other writes sins of human, crimes of human. When Good things and bad things were writed by these two angles, ‘A notebook of deed’ will be occurred. A human isn’t alone. Angels are its near. Angels are everywhere. Allah knows numbers of angels.
3- ) TO BELIEVE HOLY BOOKS OF ALLAH: It means that Allah sent the Messengers like Moses, Jesus, Abraham. Noah etc. and sent down the books like the Torah, Injeel, Zaboor (Psalms) etc. to call the people to worship Allah Alone, associating nothing with Him. Afterwards Torah, Injeel (the holy Book sent to Prophet Eisa), Zaboor had been distorted by humans. Allah sealed (finalized) the Messengers with Prophet Muhammad and ISLAM ABROGATED JUDGEMENT OF THE FORMER RIGHT SHARIAHS (WAY, LAW). Each (deen) religion has a shariah. But İslam shariah is haq (the absolute truth). The shariah of Hadrad Muhammad (pbuh) has existed İslam Shariah since 622. Therefore the worship should be done according to the Qur'an and the Sunnah of the Prophet. The previous scriptures were meant for a limited period. Their use ended with the revelation of the Qur'an, which abrogated them and exposed their distortions and changes. That is why they were not protected from corruption. They underwent distortion, addition, and omission: It is He Who sent down to thee (step by step), in truth, the Book (Qur’an), confirming what went before it; and He sent down Taurat and Injeel before this, as a guide to mankind, and He sent down the criterion (of judgment between right and wrong). (Aal-Imran, 3) "Some of the Jews pervert words from their meanings" (4:46); "So woe to those who write the Book with their hands, and then say: 'This is from Allah,' that they may sell it for a little price. So woe to them for what their hands have written, and woe to them for their earnings" (2:79); "Say, who sent down the Book that Moses brought as a light and a guidance to people? You put it into sheets of paper showing some of them and concealing much" (6:91); "And there is a group among them who twist their tongues with the Book, that you may think it is a part of the Book but it is not part of the Book. And they say 'It is from Allah,' yet it is not from Allah, and they tell a lie against Allah and they know it. It is not for any human being to whom Allah has given the Book, the Wisdom and the Prophethood to say to men 'Worship me instead of Allah"' (3:79).
INJEEL: Injeel sent by Allah to Hadrad Eisa. That time, A few people only had known reading and writing. So that The Injeel had not written. Eisa (his latinized name is Jesus) alaihissalam had not written anything. His Apostles had not required to enroll about Prophet Eisa. But The Right Injeel is at the Presence of Allah. Right Injeel and Qur’an are written in the (eternal) Record. Speeches of Prophet Eisa were in Qur’an. Injeel is not 4 Gospel. Some verses of Injeel are in 4 Gospel. In that time; those are who saw and heard apostles had written verses of Injeel to the Gospel. And falsifications had occurred. After this time, some person had translated verses of Injeel in Gospel. Falsification had occurred at this translation. This is a kind of falsification that some person had changed places of words. The second falsification in Gospel and Taurât (Torah), Some of People had perverted it knowingly after they understood it. Priests and anchorities distorted the injeel verses in gospels for gaining money and wealth.
O ye who believe(one is who believe that Islam is true way)! there are indeed many among the priests and anchorites, who in Falsehood devour the substance of men and hinder (them) from the way of Allah. And there are those who bury gold and silver and spend it not in the way of Allah: announce unto them a most grievous penalty- (9, 34). The way of Allah (Islam): Islam has choosen by Allah for you as your religion.
(And remember) when Allah took a covenant from those who were given the Scripture (people of Moses and people of Eisa) to make it (the news of the coming of Prophet Muhammad and the religious knowledge) known and clear to mankind, and not to hide it, but they threw it away behind their backs, and purchased with it some miserable gain! And indeed worst is that which they bought.(3: 187)
O Children of Israel! Remember My Favour which I bestowed upon you, and fulfill (your obligations to) My Covenant (with you) so that I fulfill (My Obligations to) your covenant (with Me), and fear none but Me. favour: Islam and leadership of the world. But leadership is taken from Children of Israel and Allah has given to Muslim now.
And believe in what I have sent down (this Qur'ân), confirming that which is with you, [the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel], and be not the first to disbelieve therein, and buy not with My Verses [the Taurât and the Injeel] a small price (i.e. getting a small gain by selling My Verses), and fear Me and Me Alone. (Tafsir At-Tabarî, Vol. I, Page 253). Explanation: small price are superabundance goods. These are no value at the Presence of Allah.
And be steadfast in prayer; practise regular charity; and bow down your heads with those who bow down (in worship). Some verses of The Surah Al-Baqara: 40, 41, 43)
A Jew named Paulus of Tarsus (Saul) had diluted Jihad (struggling in the Consent of Allah). Paulos transgressed truths and the way of Moses. Paulus, who lied that he believed in Eisa ‘alaihis-salam’ and pretended to try to spread the shariah of Eisa (islam), annihilated Injil (Injeel), which had been revealed by Allahu ta’ala. Later the lie of trinity was inserted into the distorted shariah of Eisa. An unreasonable and logic never support it, namely father-son-holy spirit, was thus established. Whereas Paulos put an end obeying shariah (law, way) of Moses and Eisa. He was not apostle and companion of Prophet Eisa. He was not follower of Prophet Eisa. He was told lies adherents of himself and the other people by using the name of Eisa. But Arius and the other Muslims did not believed lies of Paulus. Betrayer Paulos established named Christianity which the fakes of Jew. Hadrad Eisa never said to apostles Eisawi (Christian) and Messiahen. Hadrad Eisa never came to establish a new deen (way of life) and community by using his name. He lived Islam and invited Islam to mankind like Hadrad İbrahim (Abraham) Yakup, Yusuf (Joseph), Davud (David), Muhammad (Peace be upun all Messengers of Allah) and The other Messengers of Allah. People of Hadrad Eisa (Jesus) had to obey Injeel and Taurat. Some Priests and Anchorites had distorted the verses of Injeel in Gospels and established Christianity. Christianity has occurred after years then Hadrad Eisa raised up. There are Baptism (had been occured in Jews before Christianity), celebration of christmas, incense, statue, the cross, in Romans. The statues and pictures of Jesus, The Holy Communion (Eucheristia) are works of idolatry. In that time, Roman emperor prevented internal war with Christianity. People of Hadrad Moses had to have obey Taurat. But people of Moses had distorted Taurat and formed a new religion named Judaism. They called follower of Juda (Yahuda) who was the one of sons of Jakop (Prophet Yakub). Judaism almost had been occurred at B.C 900 years ago. Those are known as a Jew by people.
There being no copies of the genuine Injeel left now, some people scribbled book in the name of Gospel. The council of clergy that met in Nicea in A.D. 325 annulled fifty of the existing fifty four so called Gospels. Four Gospels remained: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. These are history books. Paul’s lies and the lie of trinity propounded by Plato were given place in these Gospels. An apostle named Barnabe wrote a true account of what he heard and seen from Eisa ‘alaihis-salam’, but Gospel of Barnabe (Evangelium Barnabe) was annihilated. This book is not work of imagine of Muslim. In 500 years, Pope 1. Galesius prepared a list about false and against to religius thoughts. And he took the name of Barnabe in this list. In that time Islam has not come to world. Roman letters of Paulus had been put in holy revelation. These letters had imbued to obey pagan romans. Priests and anchorites had made unlawful to lawful and lawful (permitted) to unlawful (prohibits). And then they had obeyed them. Thus they had worshiped priests and anchorites. It is stated in the Qur’an: They take their priests and their anchorites to be their lords in derogation of Allah, and (they take as their Lord) Eisa (Christ) the son of Mary; yet they were commanded to worship but One Allah: there is no Ilah (worthy of worship) except Allah. Praise and glory to Him: (Far is He) from having the partners they associate (with Him). (9: 31)
Some scholars had distorted the Taurât (Torah) and the verses of Injeel in gospels. It is excessiveness at faith and a shirk.
This is a simple example the distortion of the verses of genuine Injeel: Which verses does a Christian must believe and reject according to Bible? According to Bible; A Christian is an unbeliever Even if a Christian believed Bible or not. When a Christian believed the first verse, he/she rejected the other 3 verses.
JN 3:13 Only the Son of Man (Jesus) has ever ascended to heaven. 2KI 2:11 Elijah went up to heaven. 2CO 12:2-4 An unnamed man, known to Paul, went up to heaven and came back. HE 11:5 Enoch was translated to heaven.
And from those who call Nasara themselves those are who believed and helped Eisa, We took their covenant, but they have abandoned a good part of the Message that was sent to them. So We planted amongst them enmity and hatred till the Day of Resurrection (when they discarded Allah’s Book, disobeyed Allah’s Messengers and His Orders and transgressed beyond bounds in Allah’s disobedience), and Allah will inform them of what they used to do. (5: 14)
Say (O Muhammad):"O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians)! Exceed not the limits in your religion (by believing in something) other than the truth, and do not follow the vain desires of people who went astray in times gone by, and who misled many, and strayed (themselves) from the Right Path." (Al-Maeda, 77) People of the Scripture, Book: Jews and Chrsitians.
And mix not truth with falsehood, nor conceal the truth [i.e. Muhammad Peace be upon him is Allah's Messenger and his qualities are written in your Scriptures, the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel] while you know (the truth). (2: 42)
If only they had stood fast by Taurat, the Injeel, and all the revelation that was sent to them from their Lord (Rubb), they would have enjoyed happiness from every side. There is from among them a party on the right course: but many of them follow a course that is evil. (Qur’an, Al-Maeda, 66) (Jews, Christians had not stood fast by Taurat, Injeel and Qur’an)
Those who disbelieved from among the children of Israel were cursed by the tongue of Dawood and Eisa, son of Maryam; this was because they disobeyed and used to exceed the limit. (5: 78)
Believe Allah is Only One Ilah (worthy of worship) and Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). Salvation is in Islam. It is stated in the Qur’an: If only the People of the Book had believed and been righteous, We should indeed have blotted out their iniquities and admitted them to gardens of bliss. (5: 65)
QUR’AN IS WORD OF ALLAH (THE ONLY ONE ALMIGHTY)
Verily this Qur’an doth guide to that which is most right (or stable), and giveth the Glad Tidings to the Believers who work deeds of righteousness, that they shall have a magnificent reward;(17: 9)
And this is a blessed Message which We have sent down: will ye (You) then reject it? ((21)Al-Anbiya: 50) English Translation of the meaning of Qur’an.
"Here is a Message for mankind: Let them take warning there from, and let them knows that He is (no other than) One Allah; let men of understanding take heed." ((14) Ibrahim: 52)
QUR’AN IS THE LAST HOLY BOOK AND GREATEST MIRACLE. The language of Qur’an is Arabic language. The Qur'an was revealed in Arabic which means that the words of ALLAH are in Arabic. The translations are the words of human beings relating to the meanings of the Qur'an to the non-Arabic speaking masses. But Rules, judgements are universal. essentials of All knowlodges is not found in the Qur’an. Arabic language is most phonetic language. Arabic has power of statement. Qur’an, the only authentic revealed book in the world that has been kept without change. Qur’an has been guarded by Allah since 1400 years and Allah will assuredly guard it (from corruption).
We have, without doubt, sent down the Message (Qur’an); and We will assuredly guard it (from corruption)." (Al- Hicjr: 9)
This is the Book; in it is guidance sure, without doubt, to those who fear Allah; (2; 2)
Qur’an confirmed the True Injeel (the Holy Book sent to Prophet Eisa) and True Taurât (Torah, The Law)
It is He Who sent down to thee ( step by step ), in truth, the Book, confirming what went before it; and He sent down the Law (of Moses) and Injeel (the Holy Book sent to Prophet Eisa) before his, as a guide to mankind, and He sent down the criterion ( of judgment between right and wrong ). (Qur’an; 3: 3)
He it is Who has sent down to thee the Book: In it are verses basic or fundamental (of established meaning); they are the foundation of the Book: others are allegorical. But those in whose hearts is perversity follow the part there of that is allegorical, seeking discord, and searching for its hidden meanings, but no one knows its hidden meanings except Allah. And those who are firmly grounded in knowledge say: "We believe in the Book; the whole of it is from our Lord:" and none will grasp the Message except men of understanding. (Qur’an; 3: 7)
So verily I call to witness the planets - that recede, Go straight, or hide; And the Night as it dissipates; And the Dawn as it breathes away the darkness; - Verily this is the word of a most honourable Messenger (Prophet Muhammad(pbuh)). (81: 15,16,17,18,19) (Allah called to witness)
When you opened the text of The Holy Book, at first, you will see a beautiful prayer. The Surah Al-Fatiha:
1 In the name of Allah Most Gracious Most Merciful.
2 Praise be to Allah, the Cherisher and Sustainer of the worlds;
3 Most Gracious, Most Merciful; 4 Master of the Day of Judgment.
5 Thee do we worship, and Thine aid we seek.
6 Show us the straight way,
Qur’an isn’t a joke, a lie, a made-up tale. Qur’an isn’t a word of a mortal, a history book. There is no contradiction in Qur’an.
Do they not consider the Qur’an (with care)? Had it been from other Than Allah, they would surely have found therein Much discrepancy. (4: 82)
We send down (stage by stage) in the Qur'an that which is a healing and a mercy to those who believe: to the unjust it causes nothing but loss after loss. (17: 82)
Criterion is The Holy Book Qur’an and not science. Science must obey Qur’an. Science belongs to mankind. And Science errs. Qur’an is Word of Allah. There is no mistake, contradictions in Qur’an.
It is He Who has let free the two bodies of flowing water: One palatable and sweet, and the other salt and bitter; yet has He made a barrier between them, a partition that is forbidden to be passed. (25: 53)
Thou seest the mountains and thinkest them firmly fixed: but they shall pass away as the clouds pass away:(such is) the artistry of Allah, who disposes of all things in perfect order: for he is well acquainted with all that ye do. (27: 88)
With power and skill did We construct the Firmament: for it is We Who create the vastness of pace. (51: 47)
Those whom Allah (in His plan) willeth to guide,- He openeth their breast to Islam; those whom He willeth to leave straying,- He maketh their breast close and constricted, as if they had to climb up to the skies: thus doth Allah (heap) the penalty on those who refuse to believe. (6: 125)
There is a harmony, fine art and an order in universe.
The sun and the moon follow courses (exactly) computed; (Ar- Rahman, 5)
Everything is pair. (Night-day, plus-minus, black-white, long-short...)
And of every thing We have created pairs: That ye may receive instruction. (51: 49)
This verse is about communication with animals. And Solomon was David’s heir. He said: "O ye people! We have been taught the speech of birds and on us has been bestowed (a little) of all things: this is indeed Grace manifest (from Allah.)" (27: 16)
By the Firmament which returns (in its round), And by the Earth which opens out (for the gushing of springs or the sprouting of vegetation), - Behold this is the Word that distinguishes (Good from Evil): (At-Tariq, 11,12,13)
There is, in their stories, instruction for men endued with understanding. It is not a tale invented, but a confirmation of what went before it, - a detailed exposition of all things, and a guide and a mercy to any such as believe. ((12)Yusuf : 111)
Qur’an notified Qarun’s arrogant situation. Qarun was doubtless, of the people of Moses; but he acted insolently towards them.
(Remember also) Qarun, Pharaoh, and Haman: there came to them Moses with Clear Signs, but they behaved with insolence on the earth; yet they could not overreach (Us). (Al-Ankeboot, 39)
4- ) TO BELIVE MESSENGERS OF ALLAH: There are name of 25 Messengers in the Qur’an. 24.000 or 124.000 Messengers had been come to world. We are Muslims all of Messengers of Allah. We believe David, Moses, Jesus, The Last Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and all of Messengers of Allah.
Allah revealled to Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and It is stated in Qur’an:
For We assuredly sent amongst every People a messenger, (with the Command), "Serve Allah, and eschew Evil (taghut)":of the People were some whom Allah guided, and some on whom error became inevitably (established). So travel through the earth, and see what was the end of those who denied (the Truth). ((16)An-Nahl: 36)
ISLAM CONFIRMS MESSENGERS AND HOLY BOOKS: Islam is Deen (religion) of all prophets since Adam to Mohammad (Peace be upon them all). The entire prophets are human, sinless righteous man. Religion Islam confirms that Messengers and Holy Books have been sent by Allah. All Prophets of Allah, from Adam ‘alaihis-salam’ to the Last Prophet Muhmamad ‘alaihs-salam’, taught the same iman (faith in Islam), and stated the same principles for their umma to belive. All messengers, prophets and holy books sent by Allah for teaching manners to humans and to prevent to misunderstand Allah. Torah and Injeel had been distorted by priests and anchorites. Qur’an al kerim has been preserved precisely as it was revealed, without even one diacritical dot having been changed.
Allah decreed in Qur’an:
Mankind was one single nation, and Allah sent Messengers with glad tidings and warnings; and with them He sent the Book in truth, to judge between people in matters wherein they differed; but the People of the Book, after the clear Signs came to them, did not differ among themselves, except through selfish contumacy. Allah by His Grace Guided the believers to the Truth, concerning that wherein they differed. For Allah guided whom He will to a path that is straight. (2: 213)
Say ye: "We believe in Allah, and the revelation given to us, and to Abraham, Isma'il, Isaac, Jacob, and the Tribes, and that given to Moses and Jesus, and that given to (all) prophets from their Lord: We make no difference between one and another of them: And we bow to Allah (in Islam)."(2:136) English Translation of the meaning of Qur’an.
All prophets of Allah promised to Allah:
Behold! Allah took the covenant of the prophets, saying: "I give you a Book and Wisdom; then comes to you a messenger, confirming what is with you; do ye believe in him (Prophet Muhammad) and render him help. “Allah said: "Do ye agree, and take this my Covenant as binding on you?" They said: "We agree." He said: "Then bear witness, and I am with you among the witnesses." (3: 81)
HADRAD EISA (HIS NAME IS CHRIST IN THE GREEK LANGUAGE) THE SON OF MARYAM
Eisa is one of Messengers who is stated in Qur’an and Allah (The Only One Almighty, The proper name of Our Creator) had sent him as the Last Prophet to Children of Israel. Jesus is a latinized name. His real name is EISA. He is not Jewish and Christian. He is a human and Muslim. He eats, sleeps, drink water and speak like us. He never hear and see you but Allah hears and sees you. He never help you. But Allah can help you if Allah wills. His birth date can be 300-400 years B.C. His miracles related to medicine is majority. But at the beginning of birth of Christ, medicine had not been favorite so much. In addition, according to Taurat and Gospels, all dates between 400-0 years always is skipped. There were very great events in this period.
5: 116 And behold! Allah will say:"O Eisa (Jesus) the son of Mary! Didst thou say unto men, worship me and my mother as ilâhaîn (two gods in worship, etc.) in derogation of Allah'?" He will say: "Glory to Thee! never could I say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing, thou wouldst indeed have known it. Thou knowest what is in my heart, Thou I know not what is in Thine. For Thou knowest in full all that is hidden. English Translation of the meaning of Qur’an.
5:117 "Never said I to them aught except what Thou didst command me to say, to wit, 'worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord'; and I was a witness over them whilst I dwelt amongst them; when Thou didst take me up Thou wast the Watcher over them, and Thou art a witness to all things.
He is The Messiah. Messiah is not savior. It is stated in the Qur’an: “The Messiah ['Eisa (Jesus)], son of Maryam (Mary), was no more than a Messenger; many were the Messengers that passed away before him. His mother [Maryam (Mary)] was a Siddiqah [i.e. she believed in the words of Allah and His Books (see Verse 66:12)]. They both used to eat food (as any other human being, while Allah does not eat). Look how We make the Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, revelations, etc.) clear to them, yet look how they are deluded away (from the truth).” (5: 75)
"And Allah will teach him (Prophet Eisa) the Book and Wisdom, the Law (Taurat) and the Injeel, (3: 48)
He is not Word. He is the one of commands of word be. He is not The Truth. He is the one of truths of Allah jalla jalaluh. He is about to truth. Allah is Haqq (The Truth). Hadrad Eisa and His apostles (They are not apostles of Allah) were speaking Syriac which is one of dialect of Aramiac. But this dialect is different in Syria. Palestinian people were so foreigner to Hellen language so that Roman general Titus felt to got his speech translated when he wanted to speak to people of Jerusalem in A.C 70. In greek word Pericletus means Munhamanna in Syriac. Munhamanna means Muhammad in Arabic. But Christian schoolars can change Pericletus in Yohannes Bible and took place paracletus word. ‘Ahmed’ or ‘Muhammad’ meaning ‘the one who praises’ or ‘the praised one’ is almost the translation of the Greek word Pericletus. It is not used that The name of Ahmed in Arab literature before Hadrad Muhammad (pbuh). You can see truths about Hadrad Muhammad (pbuh) parts of Evangelium Barnabe:72, 83, 96, 97, 124. All Christians must know this Glad Tidings of Messenger, believe Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), obey and follow him. It is stated “And remember, Eisa (Jesus), the son of Mary, said: "O Children of Israel! I am the Messenger of Allah (sent) to you, confirming the Law (which came) before me, and giving Glad Tiding of Messenger to come after me, whose name shall be Ahmed." But when he came to them with Clear Signs, they said, this is evident sorcery. ″(Qur’an, As-Saff: 6)
Allah revealed Hadrad Muhammad (pbuh) and it is stated English Translation of the meaning of Qur’an: O people of the Book! There hath come to you our Messenger (Prophet Muhammad), revealing to you much that ye used to hide in the Book, and passing over much (that is now unnecessary): There hath come to you from Allah a (new) light and a perspicuous Book, - (5: 15)
Verily, those who disbelieve in Allah and His Messengers and wish to make distinction between Allah and His Messengers (by believing in Allah and disbelieving in His Messengers) saying, "We believe in some but reject others," and wish to adopt a way in between. (4: 150)
His conception and birth represent a first in human history. Creating Adam (first human), without a mother and father, Allah, in time, created Prophet Eisa (Jesus) without a father as well and show this change in his creation as a clear evidence to all mankind. The Qur’anic verses related to this draws attention to his creation: "Eisa (Jesus) in Allah’s sight is like Adam: Created him from dust, then He said to him: "Be", and there he was. (This is) the truth from your Lord; so do not be one of the doubters." (Aal-Imran, 59, 60). English Translation of the meaning of Qur’an. This verse explains that when Allah’s power is a matter consideration, other causes are silent and then pen of power prevails. For this reason, one of Eisa names in the Qur’an is 'ruhullah '(a spirit from the Presence of Allah, a spirit proceeding from Allah). Allah is free from to be attributed becoming the owner of spirit.
Almost as soon as he was born, when people began to accuse Mary, Eisa alaihissalam spoke and exonerated his pure mother, Mary; while he was still in the cradle the duty of prophethood that would later be given to him by his Lord was outlined. In the verse that gives the good news of Eisa’ birth, it is stated, " He shall speak to the people in childhood and in maturity, and he shall be (of the company) of the righteous." (Aal-Imran, 46) his speech is given as follows:" He said: 'I am indeed a servant of Allah: He hath given me revelation and made me a prophet; and He hath made me blessed wheresoever I be, and hath enjoined on me Prayer and Charity as long as I live; (He) hath made mekind to my mother, not overbearing or miserable; so peace is on me the day I was born; the day that I die, and the day that I shall be raised up to life ( again ) ! “((19)Maryam: 30, 31, 32, 33)
She placed a screen (to screen herself) from them; then We sent her our angel, and he appeared before her as a man in all respects.
He said: "I seek refuge from thee to (Allah) Most Gracious: (come not near) if thou dost fear Allah."
He said: "Nay, I am only a messenger from thy Lord, (to announce) to thee the gift of a holy son.
She said: "How shall I have a son, seeing that no man has touched me, and I am not unchaste?"
He said: "So (it will be): Thy Lord saith, 'that is easy for Me: and (We wish) to appoint him as a clear evidence(miracle) unto men and a Mercy from Us': It is a matter (so) decreed."
So she conceived him, and she retired with him to a remote place.
And the pains of childbirth drove her to the trunk of a palm-tree: She cried (in her anguish): "Ah! would that I had died before this! would that I had been a thing forgotten and out of sight!" (Maryam: 17-23)
He informed his prophethood to people at 30 years. Hadrad Eisa had conveyed the Message to Children of Israel 2-3 years. Prophet Eisa had conveyed the same message: TAWHID (There is no Ilah except Allah). The Prophet Moses had conveyed the same message (Tawhid) before Prophet Eisa. Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) had conveyed Tawhid. Salât (prayers), Zakat, Sawm (fasting is presciribed one mounth a year), qısas, recm, have been in the way (Shariah) of Eisa. Hadrad Eisa had done deeds according to Hadrad Moses. Hadrad Moses ‘alaihis-salam’ was one of the Messenger sent by Allah to the children of Israel. Pork, alcohol and fortunetelling are forbidden in the way (shariah) of Moses. Wine is unclean and disgusting. Messenger of Allah only show miracle. It is possible to summarize miracles of Prophet Eisa as follows, according to the way in which they appear in the Qur’an: Raising the dead. Breathing life into a bird made from clay. Making the blind see. Curing leprosy. Giving news of what was going on inside houses. Being strengthened by the Holy Spirit. Bringing down a banquet from the heavens.
But Roman soldiers had guessed Hadrad Eisa is an ilah (alone worthy of worship) except Allah when he shown miracles. Hadrad Eisa is not savior. Hadrad Eisa says and is stated in the Qur’an: “(Allah) is truly your Lord and my Lord; so worship him. That is a straight path." (Maryam: 36) "'It is Allah Who is my Lord (Rubb) and your Lord; then worship Him. This is a Way that is straight.'" (3: 51) All Messengers of Allah are the handle of eternal salvation and happiness. When Hadrad Eisa had been accepted ilah by some people as a result of extreme and poisonous love, Christians certainly had not obey Hadrad Eisa and excessed on praising Prophet Eisa. Church with trinity is not showing Eisa as a guide. Church never say be like Jesus. Because saying this is synonym for ‘be ilah (worthy of worship)’. It’s unthinkable. Church have been ensconced the place who had been evacuated from Prophet Eisa. Church jumped queue. This is a lie that Church is salvation. Salvation is in Islam.
The prayer of Prophet Eisa (Jesus) is stated in the Qur’an:
Said Eisa (Jesus) the son of Mary: “O Allah our Lord! Send us from heaven a table set (with viands), that there may be for us - for the first and the last of us - a solemn festival and a sign from thee; and provide for our sustenance, for thou art the best Sustainer (of our needs)." (Al-Maeda: 115)
"If Thou dost punish them, they are Thy servant: If Thou dost forgive them, Thou art the Exalted in power, the Wise." ((5)Al-Maeda: 118)
No son did Allah beget, nor is there any god along with Him: (if there were many gods), behold, each god would have taken away what he had created, and some would have lorded it over others! Glory to Allah! (He is free) from the (sort of) things they attribute to Him! (23: 91)
Certainly they disbelieve who say: Surely Allah, He is the Messiah, son of Maryam; and the Messiah said: O Children of Israel! serve Allah, my Lord and your Lord. Surely whoever associates (others) with Allah, then Allah has forbidden to him the garden, and his abode is the fire; and there shall be no helpers for the unjust. (Al-Maeda; 72)
Certainly they disbelieve who say: Surely Allah is the third (person) of the three; and there is no Ilah but the one Ilah, and if they desist not from what they say, a painful chastisement shall befall those among them who disbelieve. (Al-Maeda; 73)
He (Allah) to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth: no son has He begotten, nor has He a partner in His dominion: it is He who created all things, and ordered them in due proportions. ((25)Al-Furqa: 2)
And they have taken besides Him ilâhaîn (two gods in worship, etc.), who do not create anything while they are themselves created, and they control not for themselves any harm or profit, and they control not death nor life, nor raising (the dead) to life.(25: 3) English Translation of the meaning of Qur’an.
88 They say: "(Allah) Most Gracious has begotten a son!"
89 Indeed ye have put forth a thing most monstrous!
90 At it the skies are ready to burst, the earth to split asunder, and the mountains to fall down in utter ruin,
91 That they should invoke a son for (Allah) Most Gracious.
92 For it is not consonant with the majesty of (Allah) Most Gracious that He should beget a son.
93 Not one of the beings in the heavens and the earth but must come to (Allah) Most Gracious as a servant. (Some Verses od Surah Maryam)
People of the Book! Commit no excesses in your religion: Nor say of Allah aught but the truth. Eisa (Christ Jesus) the son of Mary was (no more than) a messenger of Allah, and A Word (command) of Allah, which He bestowed on Mary, and a spirit proceeding from Him: so believe in Allah and His messengers. Say not "Trinity": desist: it will be better for you: for Allah is one Allah: Glory be to Him: (far exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belong all things in the heavens and on earth. And enough is Allah as a Disposer of affairs. ((4)An-Nisa: 171) Explanation: People of the Book ( Jews and Christians).
Jews (Mushrikoon) complained him to governor of Jerusalem. One called Yahuda at among apostles betrayed to Jesus. Like is birth, Eisa’s departure from mankind was another miracle. Allah did not leave Eisa (Jesus) in the hands of those who wanted to kill him and, in the words of the Qur’an, he was raised to the heavens with another miracle, being taken from among mankind to a different plane of life. Because the children of Israel had denied the clear evidences (miracles) of Allah. They were rebelling to Allah for years. Jews had killed Prophet Zakariya, John (Yahya), Elias (İlyas) in the past. Prophet Eisa and Prophet Yahya were the last blessing to children of Israel. But they denied Islam. In this reason, Allah called back Prophet Eisa. They had not crucified Hadrad Eisa. They crucified Judas who was a apostle. He took a bribe 30 coins from Jew schoolars. And he betrayed Prophet Eisa. According to the Qur’an, "...that they said (in boast), 'We killed Eisa (Christ) the son of Mary (Maryam), the Apostle of Allah’-but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not. Nay Allah raised him up unto His presence ; and Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise." (4:157, 158). You can see about this subject part 113 in Evangelium Barnabe.
Allah command Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) to ask: Ask the Children of Israel how many clear (Signs) we have sent them. But if any one, after Allah’s favour (Taurat and Injeel) has come to him, substitutes (something else), Allah is strict in punishment. ((2) Al-Bagara: 211)
Then, in their wake, We followed them up with (others of) Our messengers: We sent after them Eisa the son of Mary, and bestowed on him the Injeel; and We ordained in the hearts of those who followed him Compassion and Mercy. But the Monasticism which they invented for themselves, We did not prescribe for them: (We commanded) only the seeking for the Consent of Allah; but that they did not foster as they should have done. Yet We bestowed, on those among them who believed, their (due) reward, but many of them are rebellious transgressors. (Qur’an, 57: 27)
The descent of Hadrad Eisa (peace be upon him): Hadrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) reported the Prophet (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) as saying: There is no prophet between me and him, that is, Nabi Eisa (peace be upon him). He will descend (to the earth). When you see him, recognise him: a man of medium height, reddish hair, wearing two light yellow garments, looking as if drops were falling down from his head though it will not be wet. He will fight the people for the cause of Islam. He will break the cross, kill swine, and abolish jizyah. Allah will perish all religions except Islam. He will destroy those are who worship anything except Allah and will live on the earth for forty years and then he will die. The Muslims will pray over him. (Abu Dawud)
Eisa (Jesus) will come to present world as a person in community of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) with Will of Allah. It is stated “And (Jesus) shall be a Sign (for the coming of) the Hour (of Judgment): therefore have no doubt about the (Hour), but follow ye Me (Muhammad): this is a Straight Way. ” ((43)Az-Zukhruf: 61)
THE BELIEF OF FIRST SIN IN CHRISTIANITY IS FALSE: The belief of first sin is not found in the Holy Books of Allah.
(In addition; some of scholars of Catholic Church have confessed that this belief has no foundation in the Bible. This false belief has not existed from beginning of Christianity to 3rd century in Christianity. Many of Christian scholars has struggled this false belief in 200 years. But at the end, the other Christians had accepted this false belief with the effect of St Agustin in 5th century.)
Every person is sinless and innocent when every person was born. In substance, human is clean. Everybody was born sinless and with responsibility.
Allah chose Adam, Nûh (Noah), the family of Ibrâhim (Abraham) and the family of 'Imrân above the 'Alamîn (mankind and jinns) (of their times). ((3) Aal-'Imran: 33)
It is stated in the Qur’an: … No intimate friend or intercessor will the wrong-doers (unbelievers) have, who could be listened to. ((40) Al-Ghafir: 18)
None shall have the power of intercession, but such a one as has received permission (or promise) from (Allah) Most Gracious. ((19)Maryam: 87) Explanation: With The Will of Allah Hadrad Muhammad (pbuh) will intercede Muslims who has great sins.
Allah revealled to Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and It is stated in English Translation of the meaning of Qur’an. “And call not, besides Allah, on another Ilah. There is no Ilah (worthy of worship) except Allah. Everything (that exists) will perish except His own Face. To Him belongs the Command, and to Him will ye (all) be brought back. ” ((28)Al-Qasas: 88)
In the paradise, Adam has committed a sin but The sin of Adam belongs to Adam. He never commit a sin in this world. He is the first human and The Messenger of Allah in eath. Sin of Adam doesn’t belong to grandchild. Allah never like this. Allah is Adl (The Just). Allah jalla jalaluh is free from cruelty. Mankind can be cruel. The atonement in Christianity is a false and a excess. Hadrad Eisa (Jesus) alaihis-salam never is in excess and be in false way, far from it. All Messengers of Allah are about to truth and sinless human. This life is a trial. At the Presence of Allah, everbody will account for its life in Hereafter.
Who receiveth guidance, receiveth it for his own benefit: who goeth astray doth so to his own loss: No bearer of burdens can bear the burden of another: nor would We visit with Our Wrath until We had sent an messenger (to give warning). ((17)Al-Isra: 15)
Confession one’s sins to a priest and priests claimed forgiving sins, invoking and worshiping Jesus are false and excess. The name of these beliefs is Shirk (associating anything or anyone with Allah) are great sins. There is no authorization and power that a priest call in to being and destroy sin. Allah has not need a mediator to forgive sins. If A christian confessed his/her sin, he/she is brave to commit a sin again. There is no compunction and sincerity in the repuntance of Christians. The repentance of ours must be Tobeh Nasuh (Sincere Repentance). If we commit a sin, we are remorsefull of our sin and we never want to commit a sin again. Confessing one’s sin is the method of mancipation.
Allah created human beings with the potential to be good and evil. He implanted in men the desires that need to be controlled according to the Divine Law. Allah created human beings knowing that they would disobey Him. He thus taught them how to repent and purify themselves. The story of Adam and Eve is a prototype of human beings repeated cycle. They forgot Allah’s commandment and were lured by Satan. They disobeyed Allah and afterwards repented and Allah forgave them.
Allah alone forgive sins. Allah is Al-Ghafur (The Forgiver and Hides Faults): Allah is Al-Ghaffaar: The Forgiving (He who is always ready to forgive). Allah is Al-'Afuww: The Pardoner. He who pardons all who sincerely repents.
He is the One(Allah) that accepts repentance from His Servants and forgives sins: and He knows all that ye do. ((42)Ash-Shura: 25)
THE LAST PROPHET MUHAMMAD (PEACE BE UPON HIM)
HE IS A MERCY FOR MANKIND. His speech was gentle and kind. He summoned people to Allah And led them on his path. Mankind lived in the darkness. Everyone alive was just blind His message brought the light to the hearts that had no sight. In mercy he’s the ocean while others are drops of rain.
....But (he is) the Messenger of Allah, and the Seal of the Prophets: and Allah has full knowledge of all things. ((33)Al-Ahzab: 40)
Muhammad is the messenger of Allah... (48: 29)
It is no less inspiration sent down to him. (53: 53)
And thou (standest) on an exalted standart of character. (68: 4)
Allah decreed Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) Say: "No reward do I ask of you for it but this: that each one who will may take a (straight) Path to his Lord." (25: 57)
HE IS THE GUIDE SENT BY ALLAH TO LEAD US TOWARDS TO LIGHT. In his manners and in his deeds. He did exceed All the Prophets. The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) had sent all mankind.
Allah says in Qur’an:
And as one who invites to Allah’s (grace) by His leave, and as a lamp spreading light. (33: 46)
We sent Thee Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) not, but as a Mercy for all creatures. (21: 107) (The meaning of ‘We’ means Poverty, Majesty, Glory of Allah)
We have not sent thee but as a universal (Messenger) to men, giving them glad tidings, and warning them (against sin), but most men understand not. (34: 28)
Beautiful Qualities of Prophet Muhammad (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him)
He didn’t lie in his life. He is sinless, righteous man, He worshiped very much. He is the most compassionate human. That time, everybody says ‘safe’ ‘reliable’ to him. Those are who didn’t like him says ‘safe’, ‘relaible’ to him. He didn’t do harmfull things. He did not take sadaqah.
Allah’s Messenger was known as a truthful person even in the time of jahiliyya. All the Makkans, including the unbelievers, called him the Trustworthy One, or the Truthful. His truthfulness was so well known that even after he proclaimed his Prophethood, his enemies would still not accuse him of lying.
Prophet Muhammad had all of the essential attributes pertaining to Prophets
There are six essentials of Prophethood common to all of the Prophets. They are truthfulness, trustworthiness, communication of Allah’s commands, intelligence, sinless and being free from all kinds of bodily and mental defects. History is a witness that the Prophet Muhammad, upon him be peace and blessings, had all of these six essential attributes in a most perfect fashion.
Prior to his Prophethood, we made an appointment to meet somewhere. It was, however, three days after the appointed time that I remembered it. When I hastened to the appointed place, I found the future Prophet waiting for me. He was neither angry nor offended. His reaction was only to say: O young man, you have given me some trouble. I have been waiting for you here for three days. Abu Dawud, Adab, 82.
Those who saw the Messenger would say: ‘One with such a face cannot lie.’
One’s face reveals one’s inner world and character. Those who saw the Prophet Muhammad, upon him be peace and blessings, could not help but admire his appearance and, if they were unprejudiced, acknowledge his truthfulness. For example, ‘Abdullah ibn Salam, the most renowned Jewish scholar of the time, believed in him at his first sight of him, saying: ‘One with such a face cannot lie.’
He fought only for Allah (The Glorified and the Exalted). Mother of faithful believers, Hadrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said that the Holy Prophet (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) never struck anybody with his hand, neither a servant nor a women, but he did fight (jihad) in the cause of Allah. He never avenged any wrong done to him personally, but he did avenge a wrong violating divine commandments. (Muslim)
His manners. Hadrat Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "The Holy Prophet (pbuh) had the best manners among all the human beings" (Bukhari and Muslim)
Narrated Hadrat Anas (pbuh): When Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) shook hands with anyone, he would not withdraw his hands till the other man withdrew his, nor would he turn his face till the other did. No one ever saw Prophet Muhammad (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) sitting in a manner that his legs extended before anyone. (Tirmidhi)
The example of Prophet Muhammad (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him)
Mother of faithful believers, Sayyidatina Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: "Allah’s Prophetic Messenger (pbuh) would mend his shoes, darn his clothes and do household work like any ordinary person. He was a man among men and he would milk his goat and do all his personal work himself." (Tirmidhi)
His tender heart. Nazrat Abdullah ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) reports as follows:- Once the Holy Prophet (pbuh) asked me to recite the Qur'an to him. I said: "O Messenger of Allah! Qur’an has been revealed to you and you ask me to recite it to you!" "It is my wish, " he said, "that I hear it from some other person". So I began to recite, beginning from the Sura an-Nisa, and when I reached this verse: "But how (will it be with them) when, We bring of every people a witness, and We bring thee (O Muhammad) a witness against these," (4:41). I chanced to glance at his auspicious face and saw that tears were rolling down from his eyes. (Tirmidhi)
His generosity. Hadrat Ibn 'Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that Allah's Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) was the most generous of people in charity, but he was generous to the utmost in the month of Ramadan. Hazat Jibril (peace be upon him) would meet him every year during the month of Ramadan until it ended, and Allah's Messenger (pbuh) recited to him the Qur'an; and when Jibril (peace be upon him) met him, Allah's Messenger (pbuh) was most generous in giving charity like the blowing wind. (Muslim)
His true nature. Hadrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that Allah's Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) was presented two cups at Bayt al-Maqdis on the night of the Heavenly Journey, one containing wine and the other containing milk. He looked at both of them, and he took the one containing milk, whereupon Hadrat Jibril (peace be upon him) said: Praise is due to Allah Who guided you to the true nature; had you taken the one containing wine, your Umma would have gone astray. (Muslim)
Satan can not imitate him. Hadrat Abdullah ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) reports the Prophetic statement that,"He who saw me in dream, he saw me really, for Satan cannot make his face like mine." (Tirmidhi)
By the Star when it goes down, - Your Companion is neither astray nor being misled. Nor does he say (aught) of (his own) Desire. It is no less than inspiration sent down to him: (53: 1-4)
We do relate unto thee the most beautiful of stories, in that We reveal to thee this (portion of the) Qur’an: before this, thou too was among those who knew it not. (12: 3)
And thou wast not (able) to recite a Book before this (Book came), nor art thou (able) to transcribe it with thy right hand: In that case, indeed, would the talkers of vanities have doubted. (29: 48)
Hadrad Muhammad (pbuh) was forty years old when Allah gave prophet hood to him. He doesn’t know reading and writing. As a matter of fact, First command is Proclaim (Read). Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) learned by heart Qur’an and readed. There is wisdom in this situation. If Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) had been lettered man, there has been a possibility of slander. It is a slander of Enemies of Islam that Gospel and the Taurât (Torah) had been readed and then had been writed by him and This Qur’an is writed by him. Qur’an didn’t writed by him according to these distorted books. Because He is UNLETTERED PROPHET, There are verses about lore. There are verses of the contrary of this two book which had been distorted by priest and anchorites.
When the Prophet disclosed a matter in confidence to one of his consorts, and she then divulged it (to another), and Allah made it known to him, he confirmed part thereof and repudiated a part. Then when he told her thereof, she said, "Who told thee this?” He said,” He told me Who knows and is well-acquainted (with all things)." (66: 3)
"Those who follow the messenger, the unlettered Prophet, whom they find mentioned in their own (scriptures), - in the law and the Injeel (the Holy Book sent to Prophet Eisa); - for he commands them what is just and forbids them what is evil; he allows them as lawful what is good (and pure) and prohibits them from what is bad (and impure); He releases them from their heavy burdens and from the yokes that are upon them. So it is those who believe in him, honour him, help him, and follow the light which is sent down with him, - it is they who will prosper." (7: 157)
Explanation: Our Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is mentioned in Injeel and The Law.
Allah revealled Prophet Muhammad (pbuh):
Say: "O men! I am sent unto you all, as the Messenger of Allah, to Whom belongeth the dominion of the heavens and the earth: there is no Ilâh (worthy of worship) but He: it is He That giveth both life and death. So believe in Allah and His Messenger, the Unlettered Prophet, who believeth in Allah and His words: follow him that (so) ye may be guided." (7: 158)
Miracles of Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him
Al-Qur'an: The Living Miracle. Narrated Hadrat Abu Huraira (Rady Allahu 'Anh) that the Prophet (SallAllahu 'alayhi wa Sallam) said, "Every Prophet was given miracles because of which people believed, but what I have been given is Divine Inspiration which Allah has revealed to me, so I hope my followers will outnumber the followers of other Prophets on the Day of Resurrection. (Bukhari)
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) had seen paradise and hell in this Journey. Heavenly Miracle: Mi'raj.
Glory to (Allah) Who did take His servant for a Journey by night from the Sacred Mosque to the farthest Mosque, whose precincts We did bless,- in order that We might show him some of Our Signs: for He is the One Who heareth and seeth (all things). (Al-Isra, 1)
Human Miracle: He changed people's hearts. Narrated Sayyidatna 'Aisha (Rady Allahu Anha): Hind bin Utba bin Rabi'a came and said, "O Allah's Apostle! By Allah, there was no family on the surface of the earth I liked to see in degradation more than I did your family, but today there is no family on the face of the earth whom I like to see honored more than yours." Hind added, "Abu Sufyan is a miser. Is it sinful for me to feed our children of his property?" The Prophet (SallAllahu 'alayhi wa Sallam) said, "There is no blame on you if you feed them (thereof) in a just and reasonable manner. (Bukhari)
The splitting of the moon. Narrated Hadrat Anas (RadyAllahu 'Anh) that the people of Makkah requested Allah's Apostle (SallAllahu 'alayhi wa Sallam) to show them a miracle and he showed them the splitting of the moon. (Bukhari)
The date palm cried for him. Narrated Hadrat Jabir bin 'Abdullah (Rady Allahu 'Anh): The Prophet used to stand by a tree or a date-palm on Friday. Then the Ansari woman or man said, "O Allah's Apostle! Shall we make a pulpit for you?" He replied, "If you wish." So they made a pulpit for him and when it was Friday, he proceeded towards the pulpit (for delivering the sermon). The date-palm cried like a child! The Prophet (SallAllahu 'alayhi wa Sallam) descended (the pulpit) and embraced it while it continued moaning like a child being quietened. The Prophet (SallAllahu 'alayhi wa Sallam) said, "It was crying for (missing) what it used to hear of religious knowledge given near to it." (Bukhari)
Some verses of The Surah Al-Hajj in Qur’an
42 If they treat thy (mission) as false, so did the peoples before them (with their prophets), - the People of Noah, and 'Ad and Thamud;
43 Those of Abraham and Lut;
44 And the Companions of the Madyan People; and Moses was rejected (in the same way). But I granted respite to the Unbelievers, and (only) after that did I punish them: but how (terrible) was my rejection (of them)!
45 How many populations have We destroyed, which were given to wrong-doing? They tumbled down on their roofs. And how many wells are lying idle and neglected, and castles lofty and well-built?
46 Do they not travel through the land, so that their hearts (and minds) may thus learn wisdom and their ears may thus learn to hear? Truly it is not their eyes that are blind, but their hearts which are in their breasts.
47 Yet they ask thee to hasten on the Punishment! But Allah will no fail in His Promise. Verily a Day in the sight of thy Lord is like a thousand years of your reckoning.
48 And to how many populations did I give respite, which were given to wrong-doing? in the end I punished them. To my Presesence is the destination (of all).
49 say:"O men! I am (sent) to you only to give a Clear Warning:
50 "Those who believe and work righteousness, for them is forgiveness and a sustenance most generous. English Translation of the meaning of Qur’an.
5- ) TO BELIEVE THE LAST DAY AND HEREAFTER: We believe that there will be another life after this life. The belief in the Hereafter and life after death is the third pillar of Islamic aqeede. The life of this world is only a stage in man's journey. The deeds of this life are not disconnected from their fruits in the Hereafter. Islamic belief, relating to the Hereafter, is composed of the following principles: Man is flesh and soul. Death is the separation of the soul from the flesh. The body is only a container for the soul. The materialistic world is edging towards complete destruction. No one and no thing will survive except Allah. When the determined term of this life comes to an end, Allah will command an Angel to sound the Trumpet and all mankind and all other creatures will die. Then he (Angel) will sound it again, when, behold, all dead since Adam will stand out of their graves. Then, Allah will gather all people to account them for what they did: Actions will be reckoned with justly and precisely. An individual's deeds, the good, the bad, and the ugly, are recorded and nothing will be forgotten. Both the doers of good and evil will be rewarded or punished accordingly. There is an eternal life after death, while this material life is only a temporary stage. Those who believed (in Allah), accepted the Messengers (as truthful) and did good deeds (commanded by Allah), Allah will put them in Paradise. In Paradise, they will enjoy eternal Bliss. But those who rejected the Messengers and disobeyed Allah’s commands, will be put in Hell. In Hell Fire, they will be in continuous eternal punishment. O Allah! We (Muslims) ask Your Paradise and seek refuge you from Fire of Hell! Aameen!
Muslims believe that: 1) Death is a process in which the spirit leaves the body. It remains eternally in another world. 2) After death, human beings pass through a middle stage called the "world of isthmus" (purgatory), before the Day of Resurrection.
The goal of Islam is the felicity of mankind in this present world and eternal life. This present life is a trial. Sustanance and blessings are handle of trial.
"Allah created the heavens and the earth in truth, so that every soul may be rewarded for what is has earned; they shall not be wronged." (Qur’an, 45: 22)
Allah has bestowed His gifts of sustenance more freely on some of you than on others: those more favoured are not going to throw back their gifts to those whom their right hands possess, so as to be equal in that respect. Will they then deny the favours of Allah? (16: 71)
"It is He who made you successors on earth” (6: 165)
Or (take) the similitude of one who passed by a hamlet, all in ruins to its roofs. He said: "Oh! how shall Allah bring it (ever) to life, after (this) its death?" but Allah caused him to die for a hundred years, then raised him up (again). He said: "How long didst thou tarry (thus)?" He said: (Perhaps) a day or part of a day." He said:"Nay, thou hast tarried thus a hundred years; but look at thy food and thy drink; they show no signs of age; and look at thy donkey: And that We may make of thee a sign unto the people, Look further at the bones, how We bring them together and clothe them with flesh." When this was shown clearly to him, he said: "I know that Allah hath power over all things." (2: 259)
THIS PRESENT LIFE IS A BRIDGE. ISLAM IS ALSO DEEN (WAY OF LIFE) IN PRESENT WORLD AND IN HEREAFTER. Islam views man as a traveler in this life and the 'Home' is in the next life for eternity. We are here for a short period and we cannot take anything with us from this life except our belief in Allah and our deeds. Thus, man should be like a traveler who passes through the land and does not become attached to it. As travelers on this journey, we must understand that the meaning of being alive is to be tested. Hence, there is suffering, joy, pain and elation. These tests of good and evil are intended to evoke our higher spiritual qualities. Yet, we are incapable of benefiting from these tests unless we do our best, have complete trust in Allah and patiently accept what He has destined for us.
Everyone shall taste death. And only on the Day of Resurrection shall you be paid your wages in full. And whoever is removed away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise, he indeed is successful. The life of this world is only the enjoyment of deception (a deceiving thing).(3: 185)
The Surah Al-Ankeboot:
2 Do men think that they will be left alone on saying,"We believe", and that they will not be tested?
3 We did test those before them, and Allah will certainly know those who are true from those who are false.
4 Do those who practise evil think that they will get the better of Us? Evil is their judgment!
“Be sure we shall test you with something of fear and hunger, some loss in goods or lives or the fruits (of your toil), but give glad tidings to those who patiently persevere(for Muslims),” (2: 155)
And Allah sends down water (rain) from the sky, then He revives the earth therewith after its death. Verily, in this is an evidence (clear proof) for people who listen (obey Allah). (16: 65)
Know ye (all), that the life of this world is but play and amusement, pomp and mutual boasting and multiplying, (in rivalry) among yourselves, riches and children. Here is a similitude: How rain and the growth which it brings forth, delight (the hearts of) the tillers; soon it withers; thou wilt see it grow yellow; then it becomes dry and crumbles away. But in the Hereafter is a Penalty severe (for the devotees of wrong). And Forgiveness from Allah and (His) Good Acceptance (for the devotees of Allah). And what is the life of this world, but goods and chattels of deception? (Hadid, 20)
What is the life of this world but amusement and play? But verily the Home in the Hereafter, - that is life indeed, if they but knew. (29: 64)
And they swear by Allah their strongest oaths that Allah will not raise up him who dies. Yes, (He will raise them up), a promise (binding) upon Him in truth, but most of mankind know not. (16:38)
In order that He may make manifest to them the truth of that wherein they differ, and that those who disbelieved (in Resurrection, and in the Oneness of Allah) may know that they were liars. (16: 39)
Verily! Our Word unto a thing when We intend it, is only that We say unto it: "Be!" and it is. (16: 40)
The Day of Judgement, the Resurrection Day in Holy Qur’an.
Ash-Shams
In the name of Allah Most Gracious Most Merciful
1 By the Sun and his (glorious) splendour; 2 By the Moon as she follows him;
3 By the Day as it shows up (the Sun's) glory; 4 By the Night as it conceals it;
5 By the Firmament and its (wonderful) structure; 6 By the Earth and its (wide) expanse:
7 By the Soul, and the proportion and order given to it; 8 And its enlightenment as to its wrong and its right;-
9 Truly he succeeds that purifies it, 10 And he fails that corrupts it!
11 The Thamud (people) rejected (their prophet) through their inordinate wrong-doing,
12 Behold, the most wicked man among them was deputed (for impiety).
13 But the Messenger of Allah said to them: "It is a She-camel of Allah! And (bar her not from) having her drink!"
14 Then they rejected him (as a false prophet), and they hamstrung her. So their Lord, on account of their crime, obliterated their traces and made them equal (in destruction, high and low)!
15 And for Him is no fear of its consequences. English Translation of the meaning of Qur’an.
PARADISE OF ALLAH
The universe created by Allah for mankind. Mankind created by Allah for Hereafter, paradise and hell. The present world is not vain. This present life is a trial. Hell is not unnecessary.
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) says: “Paradise people: When Paradise people entered the Paradise, they will not be hairy in their own bodies, hair (feather) in their own faces. And their faces are bright. Their youth don’t pass and their dresses don’t become old.” “Their age is 33 years old.” “The rivers of paradise gush out under the musk hills or musk mountains.”
There is no torment there. Paradise people need no work. There aren’t menstruation, mucus, spit, urine, faeces for Women When Muslim women entered the Paradise. So that No get tired, No trouble of sleep. So that there are no limits of time, there is an eternal life. No trial in Paradise of Allah.
Their Lord doth give them glad tidings of a Mercy from Himself, of His good pleasure, and of gardens for them, wherein are delights that endure: (9: 21)
that is the supreme felicity Allah hath prepared for them gardens under which rivers flow, to dwell therein: that is the supreme felicity. (9: 89)
Allah hath purchased of the believers their persons and their goods; for theirs (in return) is the garden (of Paradise): they fight in His cause, and slay and are slain: a promise binding on Him in truth, through the Law, Injeel and the Qur'an: and who is more faithful to his covenant than Allah? then rejoice in the bargain which ye have concluded: that is the achievement supreme. (9: 111) English Translation of the meaning of Qur’an. There is a encouraging to self- sacrifice for Muslim. Believers are all Muslims from Adam alaihis-salam to doomsday.
Gardens of Eternity will they enter: therein will they be adorned with bracelets of gold and pearls; and their garments there will be of silk. (35: 33 )
And they will say: "Praise be to Allah, Who has removed from us (all) sorrow: for our Lord is indeed Oft-Forgiving Ready to appreciate (service): (25: 34)
"Who has, out of His Bounty, settled us in a Home that will last: no toil nor sense of weariness shall touch us therein." ((35)Fatir: 35)
And they say: "None shall enter Paradise unless he be a Jew or a Christian." Those are their (vain) desires. Say: "Produce your proof if ye are truthful." (2: 111)
(Here is) a Parable of the Garden which the righteous(Al ¬Muttaqûn) are promised: in it are rivers of water incorruptible; rivers of milk of which the taste never changes; rivers of wine, a joy to those who drink; and rivers of honey pure and clear. In it there are for them all kinds of fruits; and Grace from their Lord. (Can those in such Bliss) be compared to such as shall dwell for ever in the Fire, and be given, to drink, boiling water, so that it cuts up their bowels (to pieces)? (47: 15) (Explanation, wine: Wine in paradise never looks like wine in this present world. Wine in paradise never intoxicates.
Reclining on green Cushions and rich Carpets of beauty. ((55)Ar-Rahman:76 )
There are a lot of Qur’anic verses about rewards, paradise...
THE VERSES ABOUT HELL IN QUR’AN
Who, then, doth more wrong than one who utters a lie concerning Allah, and rejects the Truth when it comes to him; is there not in Hell an abode for blasphemers? (39: 32)
And We shall present Hell that day for Unbelievers to see, all spread out, - (18: 100)
Those who reject faith and deny our signs will be companions of Hell-fire. (5: 10)
Hell is a woeful refuge!
O Ye people! Adore your Guardian-Lord, who created you and those who came before you, that ye may have the chance to learn rightousness. (2: 21)
And humiliating is the punishment of those who reject Faith. (2: 90)
…For Allah will collect the hypocrites and those who defy faith - all in Hell :-( 4: 140)
…And we have made Hell a prison for those who reject (all Faith). (17: 8)
Yeal whoever earns evil and his sins beset him on every side, these are the inmates of the fire; in it they shall abide.(2: 81)
It is stated in the Qur’an: As to those who reject Faith (Islam), and die rejecting,- never would be accepted from any such as much gold as the earth contains, though they should offer it for ransom. For such is (in store) a penalty grievous, and they will find no helpers. (3: 91)
Is the man who follows the Consent of Allah Like the man who draws on himself the wrath of Allah, and whose abode is in Hell?- A woeful refuge! ((3)Aal-E-Imran: 162)
Don’t follow conjecture!
Those who give partners (to Allah) will say: "If Allah had wished, we should not have given partners to Him nor would our fathers; nor should we have had any taboos.”So did their ancestors argue falsely, until they tasted of Our wrath. Say: "Have ye any (certain) knowledge? If so, produce it before us. Ye follow nothing but conjecture: ye do nothing but lie." (6: 148)
For those who reject Allah is a terrible Penalty: but for those who believe and work righteous deeds, is Forgiveness, and a magnificent Reward. (35: 7)
Allah gives them respite for a stated Term.
If Allah were to punish men according to what they deserve. He would not leave on the back of the (earth) a single living creature: but He gives them respite for a stated Term: when their Term expires, verily Allah has in His sight all His Servants. ((35)Fatir: 45)
Say (O Muhammad): "Obey Allah and the Messenger (Muhammad)." But if they turn away, then Allah does not like the disbelievers. (3: 32)
6-) TO BELIVE QADAR (Divine Preordainments good or bad): Qadar means to believe that everything - good or bad - happens or takes place according to what Allah has ordained for it. He has created everything in due proportion. Allah creates benefactions and bad actions when a human wanted to behave, When a Human wanted to demand Which one is. Allah gives mankind an intelligence and free will. The responsibility belongs to mankind.
But ye will not, except as Allah wills; for Allah is full of Knowledge and Wisdom. (Al-Insan, 30). English Translation of the meaning of Qur’an.
Allah knows everything. Allah knows past, present, future together. Allah sees them from one point. Time is relative for Mankind. But time is not relative for Allah. Allah knows and If Allah wills, Allah creates. Allah is contented good things and not contented bad things. But As human is willing, Allah creates bad thing. But the responsibility belongs to Human.
ISLAM IS THE UNIVERSAL RELIGION. Judgments (The Divine Laws) are universal. It is stated in the Qur’an: "We have sent you (Muhammad) as a mercy for all nations." [21: 107] English Translation of the meaning of Qur’an. The Last Prophet of Islam is Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). He is the excellent example, the best warner and guide for Muslims.
Say: "O men! I am sent unto you all, as the Messenger of Allah, to Whom belongeth the dominion of the heavens and the earth: there is no Ilâh (worthy of worship) except Allah: it is He That giveth both life and death. So believe in Allah and His Messenger, the Unlettered Prophet, who believeth in Allah and His words: follow him that (so) ye may be guided." (7: 158)
Thus Islam is not restricted to any particular race or nation, as many other religions are, but is universal, meaning that its message applies to all humanity, at all times, in all places.
Since Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was the last prophet and messenger, his message applies to all future generations. All previous prophets, from Adam, Noah and Abraham to Moses and Jesus, were also Muslims:
"Not a single messenger did We send before you without this inspiration sent by Us to him - that there is no Ilâh but I, therefore worship and serve Me." [21: 25]
The special name of Qur’an is Furqan. Qur’an contains universal worths. For example:
Allah commands justice, the doing of good, and liberality to kith and kin, and He forbids all shameful deeds, and injustice and rebellion: He instructs you, that ye may receive admonition. (An-Nahl, 90)
Do they then seek after a judgment of (the days of) ignorance? But who, for a people whose faith is assured, can give better judgment than Allah? (95: 5)
A Human is weakness and needy. Human doesn’t give better judgement. Allah is Al-Hakiym. The Perfectly Wise. He whose every command and action is pure wisdom.
You see in the most of world, there is a disorder. Human systems do not success and can not success. Human systems always can not control everybody. Human system can not give you peace, prosperity, beauty. Islam controls Muslims with Divine Laws.
ISLAM IS UNIQUE ORDER AND COMPLETELY WAY OF LIFE. There are judgements at the every field of life in unique order Islam. There are judgements on faith, worship, good manners, economic field, Islamic Law and punishments, education, social field, field of domination and government, marriage. Islam rejected all ideologies. For example; capitalism, communism, imperialism, fundementalism, laisism, terrorism, esoterism etc. Islam does not divide life into "spiritual" and "secular" realms. As all of life is thus unified and interconnected, Islam avoids the dangers of the ritualism, secularism, materialism, sufism and the other ideologies. Activities are not classified as belonging to the state or the individual, religion or daily life, but as belonging to Allah alone, who has provided guidelines for individuals. These are to be followed in every aspect of their lives: individual, social, governmental, political, economical, spiritual, and otherwise reflecting this moderation, the Qur'an has entitled the Muslims the "moderate nation.”
Islam is not a new religion founded by Muhammad (pbuh), but a final restatement of the original revelation that has been conveyed to humanity by messengers and prophets sent by Allah for that very purpose. Allah reveal to Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and It is stated in English Translation of the meaning of Qur’an:...This day have those who reject faith given up all hope of your religion: yet fear them not but fear Me. This day have I perfected your religion for you, completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your deen (religion)... ( Al- Maeda, 3)

Whether open or secret; take not life, which Allah hath made sacred, except by way of justice and law: thus doth He command you, that ye may learn wisdom. ((6)Al-Anaam:151)
O ye who believe! Intoxicants and gambling, (dedication of) stones, and (divination by) arrows, are an abomination, - of Satan’s handwork: eschew such (abomination), that ye may prosper. (5: 90) English Translation of the meaning of Qur’an.
4. SUNNAH: The first type is those are which Our Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) always does acts, deeds, worships. To prayer before the rising of the sun.

6. MAKHRUH. Prohibition is constant. It is not certain as much as prohibition and our religion want to not to do them. Makruh is not liked, well-pleased. There are 2 kind of Makruh. One is Makruh which closed to Helal. It is example that this kind of makruh is not to do Sunnah and good deeds. The other is closed to Haram. It is example that this kind of Makruh is not to do Vacib (near to prescribes). Those are who had done second kind of makruh commit a sin.
7. MUBAH. To do it or not to do it is free for responsible Muslims. There is no sin to do or not to do. To eat helal, to drink helal, to sleep.
The Shari'ahs' Sources (Sources of Legislation)
The sources of the Shari'ah are the Qur'an, and the Sunnah of the Messenger, peace be upon him, which is the explanation of the Qur'an. Madhab (sect) is a sight, opnion and method. Madhab is not way like in Jewishness and Chrsitianity. It is a way to purport to a method. That if, sect is not deen (life order). Opinion can go home the judgemnet of Islam or not. In generally, the opinions of four Imam can be go home the judgement of Islam. You can accept one of them as a Imam.
There are four schoolars of thought, whose opinion were widespread. The four schools of thoughts are:
1. Imam Abu Hanifa, (d.150/767).
2. Imam Muhammad bin Idrees ash-Shafi'ee (d 205/820).
3. Imam Malik bin Anas (d 179/795).
4. Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal (d 241/855).
A person who is incapable of comprehending rulings, or deducing them from the Book and the Sunnah, he may consult any trustworthy man of knowledge who is known to be adhering to Islam. And these four imam are in the Firqah Najiyah (saved group).
THERE IS NO RACIALISM ISLAM: Islam recognizes no man-made artificial distinctions based on color, tribe, race, nationality, or otherwise. As all people come from the original couple-Adam and Eve-they are all one family and therefore equal in the creation before Allah. There is no superior race in Islam. Hitler had taken the thesis of superior race from Judaism. The cruelty and genocide of Israel against to Muslims in Phalastine based on this theory. What distinguishes people from each other is their commitment to Islam: "The most honored in the sight of Allah is (he who is) most righteous." (Qur'an: 3: 86).
In no other religion did women receive such a degree of legal and moral equality and personal respect. Moreover, racism and tribalism are incompatible with Islam, for the Qur'an speaks of human equality in the following terms:
"Mankind! We created you from a single soul, male and female, and made you into nations and tribes, that you may come to know one another. Truly, the most honored of you in Allah's sight is the greatest of you in piety." ((49)Al-Hujraat: 13)
Racial Equality in Islam: Hadrat Abu Dharrr (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophetic Messenger of Allah said to him: “You, as a person, enjoy no superiority over a white-skinned or a black-skinned man. You can, of course, be superior through piety and fear of Allah.” (Ahmad)
ISLAM IS THE BEST WAY, SUPERIOR AND EASINESS DEEN (completely way of life). Best way to live and die. There is no difficulty in Islam. If a Muslim became Muslim newly and will not pronounce in Arabic, there is a permission of which Translation of the meaning of Qur’an can be read at prayers till learning Arabic pronunciation. But if someone who can read Qur’an in Arabic at prayers will read translation of the meaning of Qur’an, the prayer of him/her is invalid. Translation of the meaning of Qur’an is not Qur’an. When ills have difficulty in fasting in Ramadan, they can fast later when they recovered. A Muslim can prayer the salat of faraidh with four rekat in two rekat at travel. Women can not prayer in menstruation, they can pray after menstruation.
On no soul doth Allah Place a burden greater than it can bear. It gets every good that it earns and it suffers every ill that it earns... (2: 286).
…Allah intends every facility for you; He does not want to put to difficulties... (2: 185)
When a Non-Muslim submitted to Islam, that Human can easily live under the shade of Islam. The person who accepted Islam, submitted to Islam lives Islam slowly and slowly and patiently can reach strong islamic life and find peace with Help of Allah jalla jalaluh.
Each person is responsible and answerable: Hadrat ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that Allah's Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) said: "Each of you is a shepherd and each of you is responsible for his flock. The imam who is (a leader) over the people is a shepherd and is responsible for his flock; a man is a shepherd in charge of the members of his household and he is responsible for his flock; a woman is a shepherdess in charge of her husband's house and children and she is responsible for them; and a man's slave is a shepherd in charge of his master's property and he is responsible for it. So each of you is a shepherd and each of you is responsible for his flock.” (Bukhari and Muslim)
Taqva (doing righteous works) in Qur’an:
And certainly the reward of the hereafter is much better for those who believe and guard (against evil). (Yusuf, 57)
To Allah belong all things in the heavens and on earth. Verily we have directed the People of the Book before you, and you (o Muslims) to fear Allah. But if ye deny Him, lo! unto Allah belong all things in the heavens and on earth, and Allah is free of all wants, worthy of all praise.(4:131)
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) says:
{A good word is charity (for Muslim).} Narrated in Saheeh Muslim, #1009, and Saheeh Al-Bukhari, #2989.
{Smiling at your brother is charity...} Narrated in Al-Tirmizi, #1956.
{Allah does not judge you according to your appearance and your wealth, but He looks at your hearts and looks into your deeds.} Narrated in Saheeh Muslim, #2564.
{The merciful are shown mercy by the All-Merciful. Show mercy to those on earth, and Allah will show mercy to you.}
{A man walking along a path felt very thirsty. Reaching a well, he descended into it, drank his fill, and came up. Then he saw a dog with its tongue hanging out, trying to lick up mud to quench its thirst. The man said, “This dog is feeling the same thirst that I felt.” So he went down into the well again, filled his shoe with water, and gave the dog a drink. So, Allah thanked him and forgave his sins.}
The Prophet was asked, “Messenger of Allah, are we rewarded for kindness towards animals?” He said: {There is a reward for kindness to every living animal or human.}
{None of you believes (completely) until he loves for his brother what he loves for himself.}
Narrated Hadrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him): Allah's Prophetic Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) said, "The truly strong is not the one who overcomes the people by his strength, but the truly strong is the one who controls himself while in anger." (Bukhari)
Narrated Hadrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him): Prophet Muhammad (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) said, "It is my tradition that a man receives his guest at his door and sees him off at the door." (Ibn Majah, Baihaqi)
Hadrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah's Prophetic Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) as saying, "He who does not thank people, does not thank Allah." (Ahmad and Tirmidhi)
Hadrat Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) said that Allah's Prophetic Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) called him and laid a condition on him that he should not ask people for anything. When he agreed, he said, "Not even for your whip when you drop it. You must dismount and get it yourself." (Ahmad)
Narrated Hadrat 'Umar bin Abi Salama (may Allah be pleased with him): I was a boy under the care of Allah's Prophetic Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) and my hand used to go around the dish while I was eating. So, Allah's Prophetic Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) said to me, ''O boy! Mention the Name of Allah (The Glorified and The Exalted) and eat with your right hand, and eat of the dish what is nearer to you." Since then I have applied those instructions when eating. (Bukhari)
Hadrat Abu Karima Miqdad ibn Ma'dikarib (may Allah be pleased with him) relates that he heard the Holy Prophet Muhammad (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) say: 'No man fills a pot worse than his stomach. For any person, a few mouthfuls are sufficient to keep his back straight. But if he wants to fill his stomach, then he should divide his stomach into three parts and should fill one third part of the belly with food, another third with drink and leave one third empty for easy breathing. (Tirmidhi)
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) has the best manners among human beings.
Hadrat Malik said that he heard that Allah's Prophetic Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) had said, "I have been sent to perfect good character." (Malik)
Making things easy. Hadrat Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) said that when Prophet Muhammad (May Allah's blessing and peace be upon him) sent one of his Companions to attend to some of his affairs, he said, "Gladden people and do not scare them; make things easy and do not make them difficult." (Bukhari and Muslim)
If a Muslim live by obeying Qur’an and Sunnah (words, deeds and life of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)), That Muslim will enter the Paradise. It is a Promise of Allah jalla jalaluh. If a Muslim live badly and not obey Allah and Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), That Muslim can enter the Hell for bearing the penalthy of his/her sins Unless Allah forgave him/her. Perhaps Allah can punish that Muslim in this present life, Perhaps That Muslim can suffer pain in grave, Allah can punish that person in Hereafter. Perhaps Allah can forgive that person; Allah only knows. Nobody is sure of wrath of Allah. We never must sin. We must not do bad things. If a Muslim committed a sin unwillingly or willingly, that person repents sincerely for not committing sin. The repentance in Islam, there is no different to say but what sin dead in such form, come to corpse to raise if you are brave. The repentance of Islam, the essence of sin is touched and the ferment of sin is changed. Human will be remedy internally. This is a changing at the Presence of Allah. It is expected Allah will forgive Muslim’s sins. Allah is Most-Mercifull, Oft-Returning, Oft-Forgiving. Allah is Al-'Adl: The Just. He who is Equitable. Foot pricking is an handle forgiving him/her sins for Muslims.
ISLAM HAS NO EXCESSIVENESS. Rules of Islam are appropriate human nature (Fitrah). Allah is the wisest of judges. Judgements of Islam are excellent. It meets (satisfy) necessities of everybody. Those are limits set by Allah provide the peace in community. “...Those are limits set by Allah: and any who transgresses the limits of Allah, does verily wrong his (own) soul.” (65: 1)
There are prohibitions and commands in Islam. The delusion of life without unprohibition world is an utopia. With the Divine prohibitions in Islam, mankind never grow away from the purpose of the creation and eludes from dangerous and troubled impasses. Islam protects deen (way of life), life, senses (mind), descent, property.
Surah at-tin in The Holy Book Qur’an: 1 By the Fig and the Olive,
2 And the Mount of Sinai,
3 And this City of security,
- 4 We have indeed created man in the best of moulds,
5 Then do We abase him (to be) the lowest of the low,-
6 Except such as believe and do righteous deeds: For they shall have a reward unfailing.
7 Then what can, after this, contradict thee, as to the judgment (to come)?
8 Is not Allah the wisest of judges?
To be truthful Muslim, one should avoid all kinds of hypocrisy and acts of blasphemy; one should surrender to Allah with utmost sincerity.
In that case there is no command to torment, by ecxessing to torment own self, by going far the permissible blessings of world When a person lives uneasy (like clergy) is forbidden in Islam.
Allah says: Eat and drink, and do not be wasteful.
There is no ordained priesthood in Islam. Every Muslim can be Imam (who leads congregational prayer) and can deliver a sermon. The members of the congregation may select, and for this purpose, they should choose one from among themselves who knows Qur’an better than the others. No vestment is prescribed for the Imam nor any special dress for the congregation. All that needed is the body and the head should be decently and cleanly covered.
ISLAM NEVER WANTS TO OBEY EVIL (IBLIS, SATAN). Satan is a first terrorist. The Prophet (PBUH) reported that Allah said, "I created my servants in the right religion but devils made them go astray".
It is We Who created you and gave you shape; then We bade the angels prostrate to Adam, and they prostrate; not so Iblis; He refused to be of those who prostrate.
(Allah) said: “What prevented thee from prostrating when I commanded thee?" He said: “I am better than he: Thou didst create me from fire and him from clay."
(Allah) said: "Get thee down from this: it is not for thee to be arrogant here: get out, for thou art of the meanest (of creatures)." As it is stated in these verses, Satan knows that Allah is The Creator. But Iblis (Satan) was arrogant and disobeyed Allah. (7: 11-13)
About the (Evil One) it is decreed that whoever turns to him for friendship, him will he lead astray, and he will guide him to the Penalty of the Fire. (Al-Hajj, 4)
When Satan was cursed by Allah for his disobidence, Satan asked for respite until the Day of Judgement, also desiring permission to try to lead human beings astray in the meantime. Allah granted this request and Satan then replied: Then I shall come upon them from before them and from behind them and from their right and from their left, and you will not find most of them grateful (7: 17).
(Allah) said: “Get out from this (from paradise), disgraced and expelled. If any of them follow thee, - Hell will I fill with you all (Al-Araf, 18). So that Satan is the enemy of mankind.
If you hear Satan whispering to you, then seek refuge in Allah. Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.
When thou dost read the Qur'an, seek Allah's protection from Satan the rejected one.
No authority has he over those who believe and put their trust in their Lord.
His authority is over those only, who take him as patron and who join partners with Allah. (98, 99, 100; Surah An-Nahl (16))
ISLAM MEANS PEACE AS A TERM. ISLAM IS THE ALONE RELIGION WHICH HAS LAW OF WAR. "Peace" is the most common word on a Muslim's tongue. Whenever two people meet, they exchange greetings, wishing each other peace: "Peace be upon you." But peace cannot prevail except through justice. Since the concept of justice may differ from one man to another or from one society to another, Muslims believe that real justice is that which is specified by Allah.
Islam always wants to peace. Islam permits fighting in self-defense, in defense of the religion, or by those who have been expelled forcibly from their homes. At the same time, Islam requires one to treat one's enemy mercifully. It lays down strict rules of combat which include prohibitions against harming civilians and against destroying crops, trees, and livestock. Islam also requires that if an enemy declares his desire to end hostilities and seek peace, the Muslims must do the same. Sudan, Indonesia and Malaysia didn’t conquer with sword. Muslim merchants had caused become muslim in these country. Only reason is to live Islam utmost sincerety as Muslims believed strong faith. MECCA IS CONQUERED WITH QUR’AN. Conquest of the heart is the front of the conquest of country. In spite of the fact that pagans, those who defy faith had tortured savagely and harmed him, Hadhrad Muhammad (pbuh) said in conquerring Mecca like Hadhrad Yusuf: "This day let no reproach be (cast) on you: Allah will forgive you, and He is the Most Merciful of those who show mercy!
Islam is not the savageness of religion. Muslims are not savageness and terrorist. Christians made the Inquisitions, the savagenes of The Crusades, Second World War, war of Vietnam.
The concept of Jihad (struggling in the cause of Allah) is stated in the Qur'an. Allah said: "Fight in the cause of Allah those who fight you, but do not transgress limits. Allah does not love transgressors." [2: 190] Jihad is never to be waged to force anybody to choose a particular religion. On the contrary, it is to waged to protect his right to choose freely. Therefore, if there is a force in the world that tries to prevent a person from practicing this right, Jihad may lead to fighting the force that is trying to prevent him from exercising free will.
"Allah does not forbid you to deal justly and kindly with those who fought not against you on account of religion, nor drove you out of your homes. Indeed, Allah loves those who deal with equity" (Surah Al-Mumtahinah 60:8)
Human is either hizb-ul-Allah (the soldier of Allah) or hizbussatan (the soldier of satan). Muslims are the soldiers of Allah. We are not member of terror organization. We are not the member of the organizitation named hizbullah in Lebanon. The goal of Muslims is gaining the Consent of Allah. Come on! Join us.
Strive for peace and justice for all!
"Do not let your hatred of a people incite you to aggression." (5:2).
Allah commands: Nor take life - which Allah has made sacred - except for just cause.
On that account: We ordained for the Children of Israel that if any one slew a person - unless it be for murder or for spreading mischief in the land - it would be as if he slew the whole people: and if any one saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of the whole people. Then although there came to them Our messengers with clear signs, yet, even after that, many of them continued to commit excesses in the land. (5: 32)
For spreading mischief in the land: “Except for those who repent before they fall into your power: in that case, know that Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.” (Al-Maeda, 34)
Mischief-making: Hadrat Hudhayfah reported Allah's Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) as saying: A mischief-maker will not enter Paradise. (Abu Dawud)
Footnote: Those are who were mischef-maker from Muslims will not enter paradise. Those are who were mischief-maker already will enter the hell!!!
The Unbelievers spend their wealth to hinder (man) from the path of Allah, and so will they continue
to spend; but in the end they will have (only) regrets and sighs; at length they will be overcome: and the Unbelievers will be gathered together to Hell;- (8: 36)
Do not usurp: Hadrat Sa‘id bin Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah’s Messenger (may Allah’s blessings and peace be upon him) as saying, “If anyone takes a span of land unjustly, its extent taken from seven earths will be tied round his neck on the Day of Resurrection." (Bukhari and Muslim)
Stand up against tyrants: Hadrat Abu Sa‘id (may Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah's Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) as saying, “An excellent jihad is when one speaks a true word in the presence of a tyrannical ruler.” (Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud and Ibn Majah)
If Allah were to punish men for their wrong-doing, He would not leave, on the (earth), a single living creature: but He gives them respite for a stated Term: When their Term expires, they would not be able to delay (the punishment) for a single hour, just as they would not be able to anticipate it (for a single hour). (16: 61)
From time to time, some general calamity occurs in the world. It is reason of that A servant has own crimes, own sins.
Whatever misfortune happens to you, is because on the things your hands have wrought, and for many (of them) He grants forgiveness. (42: 30)
ISLAMIC JUCTICE:
Nobody should be above the law: Mother of faithful believers Sayyidatina ‘Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said that the (people of the tribe of) Quraysh were anxious about the Makhzumi woman who had committed theft and asked, “Who will speak to Allah’s Messenger (may Allah’s blessings and peace be upon him) about her?” Then they said, “Who will be bold enough for it but Usama bin Zayd, the friend of Allah's Messenger?” So Hadrat Usama (may Allah be pleased with him) spoke to him and Allah’s messenger said, “Are you interceding regarding one of the punishments prescribed by Allah?” He then got up and gave an address, saying, “What destroyed your predecessors was just that when a person of rank among them committed a theft, they left him alone, but when a weak one of their number committed a theft, they inflicted the prescribed punishment on him. I swear by Allah that if Fatima, daughter of Muhammad, should steal I would have her hand cut off.” (Bukhari and Muslim)
Do not suffer injustice: Hadrat Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: Allah’s Messenger (may Allah’s blessings and peace be upon him) never went out of my house without raising his eye to the sky and saying: “O Allah! I seek refuge in You lest I stray or be led astray, or slip or made to slip, or cause injustice or suffer injustice, or do wrong or have wrong done to me. (Abu Dawud)
The rewards of establishing justice: Hadrat ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Amr ibn Al-‘Aas (may Allah be pleased with him) relates that the Holy Prophet Muhammad (may Allah’s blessings and peace be upon him) said: The just and fair persons (rulers and judges) will be seated on chairs of light before Allah (The Glorified and The Exalted). Such persons are those who decide justly and deal justly in matters relating to their families and other affairs entrusted to them. (Muslim)
The rewards of a good judge: Hadrat ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) and Hadrat Abu Hurayra (may Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah’s Messenger (may Allah’s blessings and peace be upon him) as saying, “When a judge gives a decision, having tried his best to decide correctly and is right, he will have a double reward; and when he gives a decision having tried his best to decide correctly and is wrong, he will have a single reward.” (Bukhari and Muslim)
Freedom of belief is guaranteed in Islam. But There is no democracy in Islam. It should be very clear that Islam tolerates not only other faiths but even its enemies. This is stated clearly in the Qur'an:
"Allah forbids you not with regard to those who fight you not for (your) faith, nor drive you out of your homes, from dealing kindly and justly with them, for Allah loves those who are just." [60: 8]
It is one function of Islamic law to protect the privileged status of minorities, and this is why non-Muslim places of worship have flourished all over the Islamic world. Islamic law also permits non-Muslim minorities to set up their own courts to implement family laws drawn up by the minorities themselves and to govern their own affairs.
History provides many examples of Muslim endurance towards other faiths. When the great leader and second Caliph, Umar, entered Jerusalem in the year 634, Islam guaranteed freedom of worship to all religious communities in the city. In fact, so careful was Umar in setting an example for his people that he not only went to a church to pray, he prayed outside in the courtyard, lest his followers after his death be tempted to convert the church into a mosque.
Islam teaches that the closest the Consent of Allah and the most beloved of Allah are those who are the best in piety. Thus all people, male and female, and regardless of race, color, nationality or ethnicity, are considered and treated as equal at creation before Allah and before the law. This concept of endurance did not reach the West even in theory until the 18th century and in practice not until the 20th century.
Hidayath (The correct path) is distinct from error. Right Guidance is clear from Error. We only notify to Non-Muslims for living under the roof of Islam. We only warn Non-Muslims. I just want to warn you, at face of a terrible Penalty.
Al-Amr bil Maruf wa Nahi an al-Munkar is the duty of Muslims: The above term literally means commanding what is right and forbidding what is wrong and encompasses a whole gambit of duties and responsibilities. The Qur'an makes it the duty of the believers (Muslims): "You are the best of Peoples evolved for humankind, enjoining what is right and forbidding what is wrong and believing in Allah" (Aal Imran, 3:110). It means that every individual of the society has the right, nay the duty, to tell the truth and stand for it, to further all that is good and virtuous and do his utmost to remove the wrongs and vices wherever he finds them.
ISLAM ATTACHES IMPORTANCE BOTH THE CLEANLINESS OF INTERNAL AND THE CLEANLINESS OF EXTERNAL. Islam places great emphasis on cleanliness, in both its physical and spiritual aspects. On the physical side, Islam requires the Muslim to clean his body, his clothes, his house, and the whole community, and he is rewarded by Allah for doing so. Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said: "Removing any harm from the road is charity (that will be rewarded by Allah)(for Muslims)." [Bukhari]
AT-TAHARAH (PURITY): A Muslim must be pure and clean when he performs his prayer, (otherwise his prayers will not be valid). At-Taharah is of two types: Wudu’, (Ablution) and Ghusl (full Ablution).
A Muslim must take Ghusl after: Ejaculation of semen because of any reason. Intimate intercourse. For women: End of Menstruation period. End of the childbirth period.
O ye who believe! when ye prepare for prayer, wash your faces, and yourhands(and arms)tothe elbows; Rub your heads ( with water ); and ( wash ) your feet to the ankles. If ye are in a state of ceremonial impurity, bathe your whole body. But if ye are ill, or on a journey, or one of you cometh from offices of nature, or ye have been in contact with women, and ye find no water, then take for yourselves clean sand or earth, and rub therewith your faces and hands, Allah doth not wish to place you in a difficulty, but to make you clean, and to complete his favour to you, that ye may be grateful. [5: 6]
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) advised the Muslims to appear neat and tidy in private and in public. Once when returning home from battle he advised his army:
"You are soon going to meet your brothers, so tidy your saddles and clothes. Be distinguished in the eyes of the people." [Abu Dawud]
"Don't ever come with your hair and beard disheveled like a devil." [Al-Tirmidhi]
"Had I not been afraid of overburdening my community, I would have ordered them to brush their teeth for every prayer." [Bukhari]
Moral hygiene was not ignored, either, for the Prophet (pbuh) encouraged the Muslims to make a special prayer upon seeing themselves in the mirror:
"Allah, You have endowed me with a good form; likewise bless me with an immaculate character and forbid my face from touching the Hellfire." [Ahmad]
And modesty in dress, for men as well as for women, assists one in maintaining purity of thought.
Being charitable is a way of purifying one's wealth. A Muslim who does not give charity (Sadaqah) and pay the required annual Zakah, the 2.5% alms-tax, has in effect contaminated his wealth by hoarding that which rightfully belongs to others:
"Of their wealth take alms so that you may purify and sanctify them." [9: 103]
All the laws and injunctions given by Allah and His Prophet (pbuh) are pure; on the other hand, man-made laws suffer from the impurities of human bias and other imperfections. Thus any formal law can only be truly just when it is purified by divine guidance - as elucidated by the Qur'an and the Sunnah - or if it is divinely ordained to begin with - the Shari'ah.
WOMAN, FAMILY AND MARRIAGE IN ISLAM. Islam appreciates women. Islam treats women with justice. Justice is wider than equality. Family is foundation stone (seed) of society. Woman is very important vigorous society. If a woman educated her children rightly, Society can be very well. Islam attaches importance women. Women are like a diamond. Women don't like coal. Coal is outside. But diamond is inside. Everybody wants to hide diamond. Islam never prohibit that woman dressed up her husband and dress clean garment. Women can dress nice and ornated dresses for her husband. It is free the gold and silk for women.
A Muslim woman must put on full dress which covers all of her body in the presence of strangers. Islam protects honesty of women by commanding that a woman must veil herself. Islam never want that woman’s body is an estetic form in front of her self-hood. Veiling is not a cruel. A veiling Muslim Woman is free. She is a servant of Allah. She is not a servant of herself. When A Muslim woman veiled according to Islam, her self-hood is in front her feminity. Islam protects women from illness of exhibitionism. A Muslim never torments anyone. Islam guards woman from harmful views and acts, with Islamic rules. It is obvious that men eyes has harmfull rays like beta, gamma rays. But harmfull rays never effect Muslim women and the rates of cancer is a litle amongs Muslim women. Nakedness causes foolishness. A lot of places of the world, the woman is seen a sexual goods by some people. In Islam, A woman is seen a woman. A woman is trust to her husband. Islam esteems women. Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) says: “Paradise lies beneath the feath of mothers.”
{The most perfect of the believers in faith are the best of them in morals. And the best among them are those who are best to their wives.}
The fornication of the eyes consists of looking, of ears in hearing, of the tongue in speech, of the hand in violence and of the foot in walking. The heart lusts and wishes and the private parts accord with that or reject it. (Muslim).
Our Prophet told his companions that they will be rewarded even for having sexual intercourse with their wives. "by satisfying it legally with your wives you are rewarded for it." This means they are acts of worship. Thus Islam does not consider sex a dirty thing that one should avoid. It is dirty and sinful only when it is satisfied outside marital life.
... They are your garments and ye are their garments… (2: 187)
Mahram: Hadrat Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah's Prophetic Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) as saying, "A man must not spend the night in the house of a woman who has been married unless he is a husband or a close relative." (Muslim)
Hadrat Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) relates that the Holy Prophet (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him), said, "One (For Muslims) who brings up two girls right from their childhood till their maturity, will appear on the Day of Judgement attached to me like these" (two fingers of hand) and he joined his two fingers'. (Muslim reported)
The Rights of the Wife: Islam has given women rights since 1400 years ago. Narrated Hadrat 'Abdullah ibn 'Amr ibn Al 'Aas (may Allah be pleased with him): Allah's Prophetic Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) said, "O 'Abdullah! Have I not been informed that I have to fast all the day and stand up in prayer all night?" I said, "Yes, O Allah's Messenger." He said, "Do not do that. Observe the fast sometimes and also leave them (the fast) at other times; stand up for the prayer at night and also sleep at night. Your body has a right over you, your eyes have a right over you and your wife has a right over you." (Bukhari) there is the right of divorce of women in Islam.
Behave best towards wives: Hadrat Abu Hurayra (may Allah be pleased with him) relates that the Holy Prophet Muhammad (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) said: The most perfect Muslim in the matter of faith is one who has an excellent behaviour; and the best among you are those who behave best towards their wives. (Tirmidhi)
Preserve chastity: Hadrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah's Prophetic Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) as saying, "When a woman observes the five times of prayer, fasts during Ramadan, preserves her chastity and obeys her husband, she may enter by any of the gates of Paradise she wishes." (Abu Nu'aym)
The rights of the husband: Hadrat Abu Hurayra (may Allah be pleased with him) relates that the Holy Prophet Muhammad (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) said: "When the husband calls his wife to his bed and she disobeys, and he spends the night in anger against her, the angels keep cursing her till the morning." (Bukhari and Muslim)
Marriage encouraged: Hadrat 'Abdullah ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) reported Prophet Muhammad (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) as saying, "Young men, those of you who can support a wife should marry, for it keeps you from looking at strange women and preserves you from immorality but those who cannot, should devote themselves to fasting, for it is a means of suppressing sexual desire." (Bukhari and Muslim)
Consent to marriage: Narrated mother of faithful believers Sayyidatina ‘Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her): I asked the Prophet (may Allah’s blessings and peace be upon him), “O Allah's Messenger! Should the women be asked for their consent to their marriage?” He said, “Yes.” I said, “A virgin, if asked, feels shy and keeps quiet.” He said, “Her silence means her consent.” (Bukhari)
Divorce allowed but hated: Hadrat Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him) reported Prophet Muhammad (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) as saying, "If any woman asks her husband for divorce without some strong reason the odour of Paradise will be forbidden to her". (Ahmad, Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud, Ibn Majah and Darimi)
NEIGHBOURHOOD IS SO IMPORTANT IN ISLAM. Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) says: ‘When A Muslim’s neighbour is hungry, if that Muslim sleeps, That Muslim is not with us. Muslim thinks neighbours. All Muslims are brother in Islam. In Qur’an; The Believers are but a single Brotherhood...(Al-Hujraat: 10).
{Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day (the Day of Judgment) should do good to his neighbor.} Narrated in Saheeh Muslim, #48, and Saheeh Al-Bukhari, #6019.
Serve Allah, and join not any partners with Him; and do good- to parents, kins folk, orphans, those in need, neighbours who are near, neighbours who are strangers, the companion by your side, the wayfarer (ye meet), and what your right hands possess: For Allah loveth not the arrogant, the vainglorious;- ( An-Nisa: 36)
