The Holy Qor-aan                                                                                                   002:095

قُلۡ اِنۡ كَانَتۡ لَـکُمُ الدَّارُ الۡاٰخِرَةُ عِنۡدَ اللّٰهِ خَالِصَةً مِّنۡ دُوۡنِ النَّاسِ فَتَمَنَّوُا الۡمَوۡتَ اِنۡ کُنۡتُمۡ صٰدِقِيۡنَ‏

  • اِنِ — In– If (= If situation arises; in case; under the circumstances)
  • كَانَتۡ — Kaa-nut — Has been * (= Conveys an act’s continuity from the past to the present and leading into the future)

* Note 002:095a. The implication of this part of the verse is that if you —
 assert [boast, claim, profess or think]
 to be completely [entirely, fully, really, sincerely, totally, wholly and wholeheartedly]
 the most favored friend [beloved favorite and loyal follower of God]
 then you would crave [love, long, wish and want]
 to be with Him. But since even you yourselves do not inwardly believe in such claim, you do not aspire to meet the Almighty and that is why you fear death.

** Note 002:095b. Challenging the disbelievers to ‘ask for death’ has been interpreted in several ways including the following.

  • ‘Long for your death’ so as to be perpetually with Him Who loves you so dearly to have reserved permanent and ‘Everlasting Mansions’ for you.
  • Ask for the death of the Prophet s.a.w whom you consider your opponent.
  • Pray for ‘your enemy’s death’ who actually has harmed or hurt you.
  • Invoke death on whoever among us two adheres to falsehood and opposes the Truth.

Woman’s role in Evolution

Posted on January 7, 2015 by Abid

Evolution, Woman’s Role in

The Creator created humans. He made man a hunter, a provider, a defender and equipped him with the muscular strength to accomplish those goals. He also knew what Adam had and what he lacked. He then completed the human by giving Eve to Adam and gifting her with the abilities necessary to burden her with birthing, feeding and looking after her wards from birth to burial. He made her tender, loving, physically weaker than man and yet the mainstay of human evolution by performing important functions spanning whole human life.

Like a programmer knows what program he has put in the software he has developed, the Almighty knew what He had created. So He told us to look around and see for ourselves (003:192). It’s the mother – or whoever does that job – who loves, feeds, dresses, educates, trains, inculcates the same in her boys and girls for the rest of their lives, and sends them as men and women members to form human society. Primary responsibility to sow and grow the seeds of physical, spiritual and moral values, and at least rudimentary understanding about medical, legal and financial matters has always rested on mothers. Most children do what they see their parents do, not merely what they say.

The mothers who follow the 7 cardinal steps invariably raise children who carry and reflect those values for the rest of their life. Only woman was chosen for this fundamental task of nurturing and multiplying mankind. Woman’s fundamental role to make or mar human society was interestingly shown on December 21, 2014 in a CNN broadcast by Christiana Amanpour. Some cleric was quoted with an illustration that Satin lured Eve to become a god by eating the apple it gave her. She took a bite. She gave it to Adam to eat it. And since then Man has not stopped trying to be a god rather than stay as a human being which the Almighty God had created him to be.

Woman is prone to fall to man’s brute strength and neighbors-green-grass-attraction for what she does not have. Her biggest distraction from, and threat to, her carrying out the assigned responsibilities has been Man doing man’s job. Man is imposed with the obligation to desist from seducing, forcing, luring, coercing or depriving woman in any which way. Man has been made duty-bound and to assist, cooperate and facilitate her performing her prime function in human Evolution. God knew He had created man the real weak one and woman the real strong one to build human race. That’s why He spelled out in the Holy Qor-aan the following seven solemn pledges to enable her to fulfill the purpose of life as the best daughter, sister, wife and mother and thus raise pillars of a peaceful prosperous human village.
1. She would never associate partners to God.
2. She would never steal.
3. She would never fornicate.
4. She would never destroy her children.
5. She would never fabricate allegations involving moral turpitude.
6. She would never disregard God’s guidance conveyed by His messenger (060:013).
7. She would never violate the rights of “Men made binding on her” (004:035).

These pledges are tantamount to psychological determination like “I have made up my mind” to do this or that. They confer no right on any man or government to penalize violating these pledges like the Taliban publicly shooting an Afghan woman in the head or the so-called honor-killing practiced in some Moslem countries. Violating these seven rules whether pledged or not have their own consequences under the Divine Laws of Universal Application. Law of Nature is Survival Of the Fittest and Woman was made that way. How many women ruin themselves, leave little behind in progeny to talk about, or contribute anything at all to the human Evolution? Can’t we see women following these rules and raise successful humans?

Islam, Qor-aan, Mohammad s.a.w Relationship

Posted on January 7, 2015 by Abid

Islam, Qor-aan and Mohammad s.a.w Relationship

Islam, Qor-aan, Mohammad s.a.w and their mutual relationship is often misunderstood by those who are not Moslems and even by many Moslems.  Comprehending correct relationship between these three components appropriately by placing them in proper perspective is a must to end any confusion that a serious students of Islam may have.

Mohammad s.a.w was a human being but sent as a Messenger to all people (007:159, 014:002; 034:029).  He was of the progeny of Abraham – the Excellent Exemplar (060:005) and the Great Prophet who came before the coming down of (003:066) Torah that led to Judaism and Bible that led to Christianity.  Each of these two men Abraham and Mohammad (peace on them) were born of one man and his wife, ate food, married, procreated, prayed (see our Commentary Prayers) for things they and the people at large needed.  Both died like human beings do.

The Holy Qor-aan is the collection (075:018) of revelations of God’s words (026:193, 056:081, 069:044). It was sent down piecemeal (025:033). The Arch-angel Gabriel brought it under God’s decree and inspired into the heart, mind and soul of Prophet Mohammad s.a.w (002:098, 026:194) who verbalized it (069:041 and 081:020).

The Holy Qor-aan stated the name of Holy Prophet Mohammad s.a.w four times (003:145, 033:041, 047:003, 048-030) but laid down hundreds of Commandments to addressees in ‘2nd person’ starting with the wordقُلۡ (qool = see our Commentary “You say means) or ending with the pronoun كَ (ka = you single male – 002:005).  The singular ‘primary’ addressee in ‘2nd person’ is generally translated as “O Muhammad” s.a.w since he received the Holy Qor-aan, represented all humans as their Universal Leader, was blessed with the Apex of Prophet-hood (033:041), and was an Excellent Model, the Best Exemplar (033:022).

The scope of the Holy Qor-aan is very broad. It was revealed for all people (010:003, 014:002). By ‘proxy’ its Commandments apply to every Moslem and ‘reader’ who seriously try to understand, practice and preach this Divine Message. The caveat to remember is that the Holy Qor-aan will remain well-guarded (015:010) as a wholly saved template (085:023) that offers a generous reading (056:078) in a fully preserved Book (056:079) that none touch (= learn and benefits by practicing) except (those who are or seek becoming) the Cleansed (056: 080).

Islam is the religion – the Spiritual Code and the Way of Life – comprised of teachings laid down in the Holy Qor-aan. It is the perfection of the Religion just as God pleased (005:004), the ensemble in one Book of Commandments and Prohibitions, rules and regulations which spelled out conducts which are either preferable or under specified circumstances detestable. The Holy Prophet s.a.w as the Best Exemplar set up precedents by (a) personal practices (Sunnah) of what the Holy Qor-aan provided and (b) quotations (Ahaadeeth) to guide where no situation had yet arisen to implement a course of action. This total embodiment of the Divine rules is Islam, the real way for humans to live as chosen by their Creator (003:020) Who won’t accept any other life-style (003:086). Islam literally means ‘surrender’ to God’s will and ‘peace’ by practicing its principles which a person develops inwardly and dispenses to those around him outwardly.

The site trueteachingsofislam.com is devoted to calling towards Islam (041:034). The figures in parenthesis refer to the chapter and verse numbers. See Commentary  The Beginning.

And when it is said to them, “Believe in all that Allah has entrusted.”
They said, “We believe in all that was entrusted to us.”

If you have been the real believers.”
