| Why
are you afraid of Qur'aan?
....
By Tanwir Phool*
We humans are the most eminent of all creatures of GOD ALMIGHTY. He always wants that we should be obedient to Him. For this purpose He guided us through a series of prophets. The teachings of all the prophets is the same i.e. obedience of GOD ALMIGHTY for success and prosperity of human beings in both the worlds. We should try to follow true teachings of all the prophets for achieving the goals of universal peace, brotherhood, equality, education and charity. Sunday, 13 April 2008. There are misunderstandings about surah Taubah i.e. Repentance (surah No.9) of the last book of GOD ALMIGHTY. Those who are against it, quote its verse No.5, the translation of which is as under: "But when the forbidden months are passed, then fight and slay the Polytheists wherever you find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem(of war); but if they repent, and establish regular They claim that this verse is against all the non-muslims, directing to kill them. This is a negative propaganda deliberately or unknowingly, as the verse No.4( before this verse) and the verse No.6(after this verse) are not being taken into account. The directives of these 3 verses are as under: "(But the treaties are) not dissolved with those Polytheists with whom you have entered into alliance and who have not subsequently failed you in aught, nor aided anyone against you. So fulfill your engagements with them; for GOD ALMIGHTY Love the righteous." After the conquest of Makkah (the city of Mecca),thousands of people became Muslim for one reason or another but a small group consisting of the Polytheists and the Hypocrites was still against the Prophet and his followers. They were the Terrorists ,the hidden enemies seeking the opportunity to ruin and destroy the innocent people. The verse in question i:e verse No.5 is against the said Terrorists and not for all non-muslims as it is clearly mentioned in the next verse i:e verse No.6 of surah Tauba (Repentance): "If one amongst the Polytheists asks you for asylum, grant it to him,so that he may hear the Word of GOD ALMIGHTY, and then escort him to where he can be secure, that is because they are men without knowledge." This verse tells that after hearing the Words of GOD even if he does not become a Muslim and wants to go a safe place, escort him according to his desire. There are 2 major groups of non-muslims: Those who have been blessed with books i:e Jews & Christians, and those who adore idols, sun, moon, stars, tree, fire and animals such as cow, elephant, monkey, snake, rat etc. and called Mushrikeen i:e Polytheists as they don't believe in Unity or Oneness of GOD. The last book of GOD ALMIGHTY allows Muslims to marry a Jew or 3 comments: 1. Mary said... Excellent article for removing misunderstandings.One should peruse the last book of God Almighty as a whole,not in pieces.This article is much beneficial for the unity of humanity.Every-one should peruse it with open heart. 16 April 2010 08:48 2. Zaheer said... I fully agree with the author and Mary.The Holy Qur'aan is the greatest blessing of God Almighty for entire humanity. 18 April 2010 18:03 3. Unknown said... I think that Islam is not a religion of war and violence. The verses about Jihad don't convey the general command of Islam. These verses about Jihad (Qital) relate in a restrictive sense to those who have attacked the Muslims. These are related to a particular situation. Similarly Jesus Christ said "Don't think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword."

Think what are the ACTS OF WORSHIP…we devote…to pious people.. REMEMBER THE ONLY DESTINATION AS SAID BY ALLAH FOR SHIRK IS JAHANNAM. And ALLAH knows the best . |
What
a perfect match!
... By E-Islam
What a perfectly matched couple….This marriage was indeed prepared in Jannah (Heaven)….It’s like a page from a fairytale…These were just a few of the comments made after Yusuf and Fatima’s nikaah (wedding) ceremony. A few years later and two beautiful kids in their spacious home, “the sea was no longer so clam”…Like many other marriages, Yusuf and Fatima’s marriage seemed to be experiencing some turmoil. Both were sincere and not a night passed when they would go to bed without making peace and amends. Fatima comes to her husband Yusuf with a proposal: “I read in a magazine, a while ago, about how we can strengthen our marriage.” She smilingly and lovingly offered. “Each of us will write a list of the things that we find a bit annoying with the other person. Then, we can talk about how we can fix them together and make our lives happier together.” The husband agreed. So each of them went to a separate room in the house and thought of the things that annoyed them about the other. They thought about this question for the rest of the day and wrote down what they came up with. The next morning, at the breakfast table, they decided that they would go over their lists. “I’ll start,” offered Fatima. She took out her list. It had many items on it. Enough to fill 3 pages, in fact. As she started reading the list of the little annoyances, she noticed that tears flowing from Yusuf’s eyes. “What’s wrong?” she asked. “Nothing” Yusuf replied, “keep reading your list.” Fatima continued to read and tears flowed now more profusely from Yusuf’s eyes and began to wet his beard. Fatima somewhat nervous read all three pages to her husband. She neatly placed her list on the table and folded her hands over the top of it. “Now, you read your list and then we’ll talk about the things on both of our lists.” She said happily. Quietly Yusuf stated, “I don’t have anything on my list. I think that you are perfect the way that you are. I don’t want you to change anything for me. You are lovely and wonderful and I wouldn’t want to try and change anything about you.” The wife, touched by his honesty and the depth of his love for her and his acceptance of her, turned her head and wept. This is not to say that you must overlook every fault in your partner. If a marriage partner is abusive, or is an alcoholic or drug addict, or is unfaithful, or something of that nature then yes of course there must be changes. But when it comes to the little things, remember that we are all imperfect beings, struggling to worship our Creator Allah as best we can, pursue our dreams in an Islamic way, raise our families, put food on the table, and balance all of the above fairly. We all have faults. We all make mistakes. If every marriage there times of compromise.If you go looking for faults in your partner you will find plenty and that is for sure! You will find many mistakes, bad habits, and imperfections. But you know what? If you look honestly in the mirror you will see the same things in yourself. If you focus on your partner’s imperfections you will never be happy. You will always be dissatisfied, wanting more, feeling deprived, feeling frustrated. And you will end up making your partner miserable, and pushing your marriage into misery. Instead, look for what is good in your partner. See his or her beauty, good habits, loving or kind gestures, relationship with the Creator Allah, hidden potential, and Islamic aspirations. If you look for beauty you will find it. Nurture that beauty by appreciating it, and it will grow. The love between you will deepen like a strong river, becoming more and more powerful over time. And those little things that used to bother you so much will seem not very important at all. Allah is pleased with those who are thankful to Him. He increases His favours which become the means of comfort and respect in your marital home. If one fails to offer gratitude and reconcile our “petty” differences, then such an attitude surely amounts to disregard for the so many favours Allah has blessed us with. Allah Ta’ala says: “If you give thanks, I will give you more: but if you are thankless, lo! my punishment is severe.” (Holy Qur’an 14:7). We appreciate feedback on our articles.
