The truth about Jesus

Allah Disclaims Begetting Anyone - Surah 19 Almighty Allah refuted the claims of the Jews and the Christians in many verses of the Glorious Qur'an. And they say: 'The Most Beneficent (Allah) has begotten a son (or offspring or children) as the Jews sa...y: Ezra is the son of Allah, and the Christians say that He has begotten a son (Christ), and the pagan Arabs say that He has begotten daughters (angels, etc.)." Indeed you have brought forth (said) a terrible evil thing Where by the heavens are almost torn, and the earth is split asunder, and the mountains fall in ruins, that they ascribe a son (or offspring or children) to the Most Beneficent (Allah). But it is not suitable for (the Majesty of) the Most Beneficent (Allah) that He should beget a son (or offspring or children). There is none in the heavens and the earth but comes unto the Most Beneficent (Allah) as a slave. Verily He knows each one of them, and has counted them a full counting And everyone of them will come to Him alone on the Day of Resurrection (without any helper, or protector or defender). Surah 19: 88-95   Allah Disclaims Begetting Anyone - Surah 6 Allah the Exalted also declared: Yet, they join the jinns as partners in worship with Allah, though He has created them (the jinns), and they attribute falsely without knowledge sons and daughters to Him. Be He Glorified! And Exalted above (all) that they attribute to Him. He is the Originator of the heavens and the earth. How can He have children when He has no wife? He created all things and He is the All-Knower of everything. Such is Allah your Lord! La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), the Creator of all things. So worship Him (Alone), and He is the Wakil (Trustee, Disposer of affairs, Guardian etc.) over all things. No vision can grasp Him, but His Grasp is over all vision. He is the Most Subtle and Courteous, Well-Acquainted with all things. Surah 6: 100-103   Allah Disclaims Begetting Anyone - Surah 4 Almighty Allah commanded: 0 people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians)! Do not exceed the limits in your religion, nor say of Allah aught but the truth. The Messiah Jesus, son of Mary was (no more than) a Messenger of Allah and His Word, ("Be" - and he was) which He bestowed on Mary and a spirit (Ruh) created by Him; so believe in Allah and His Messengers. Say not: 'Three (trinity)!" Cease! (It is) better for you. For Allah is (the only) One Ilah (God), Glory be to Him (Far Exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth. And Allah is All-Sufficient as a Disposer of affairs. The Messiah will never be proud to reject to be a slave to Allah, nor the angels who are near (to Allah). And whosoever rejects His worship and is proud, then He will gather them all together unto Himself So, as for those who believed (in the Oneness of Allah - Islamic Monotheism) and did deeds of righteousness, He will give their (due) rewards, and more out of His Bounty. But as for those who refuse His worship and were proud, He will punish them with a painful torment. And they will not find for themselves besides Allah any protector or helper. Surah 4: 171-173   Allah Disclaims Ezra as a Son Almighty Allah also declared: And the Jews say: Ezra is the son of Allah, and the Christians say: Messiah is the son of Allah. That is a saying from their mouths. They imitate the saying of the disbelievers of old. Allah Curse be on them, how they are deluded a way from the truth! They (Jews and Christians) took their rabbis and their monks to be their lords besides Allah, (by obeying them in things which they made lawful or unlawful according to their own desires without being ordered by Allah) and (they also took as their lord) Messiah, son of Mary, while they (Jews and Christians) were commanded (in the Torah and the Gospel) to worship none but One Ilah (God - Allah) La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshiped but He). Praise and glory be to Him, (far above is He) from having the partners they associate (with Him). Surah 9: 30-32   Allah Disclaims Begetting Anyone - Surah 37 Allah the Almighty also revealed: Now ask them (0 Muhammad): 'Are there (only) daughters for your Lord and sons for them?" Or did We create the angels females while they were witnesses? Verily it is of their falsehood that they (Quraish pagans) say: 'Allah has begotten offspring or children (I,e. angels are the daughters of Allah)" And, verily they are liars! Has He (then) chosen daughters rather than sons? What is the matter with you? How do you decide? Will you not then remember? Or is there for you a plain authority? Then bring your Book if you are truthful! And they have invented a kinship, between Him and the jinns, but the jinn know well that they have indeed to appear (before Him) (i.e. they will be brought for accounts). Glorified be Allah! (He is free) from what they attribute unto Him! Except the slaves of Allah, whom He chooses (for His Mercy i.e. true believers of Islamic Monotheism who do not attribute false things unto Allah). Surah 37: 149-160   Allah Disclaims Begetting Anyone - Surah 6 (Different Verses) And Almighty Allah declared: Surely in disbelief are they who say that Allah is the Messiah, son of Mary. Say (0 Muhammad): "Who then has the least power against Allah, if He were to destroy the Messiah, son of Mary his mother, and all those who are on the earth together?" And to Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, and all that is between them. He creates what He wills. And Allah is Able to do all things. And (both) the Jews and the Christians say: "We are the children of Allah and His loved ones." Say: "Why then does He punish you for your sins?" Nay you are but human beings, of those He has created, He forgives whom He wills and He punishes whom He wills. And to Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them, and to Him is the return (of all). O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians)! Now has come to you Our Messenger (Muhammad) making (things) clear unto you, after a break in (the series of) Messengers, lest you say: 'There came unto us no bringer of glad tidings and no warner." But now has come unto you a bringer of glad tidings and a warner. And Allah is Able to do all things. Surah 6: 17-19   Allah Disclaims Christian Beliefs About Jesus Allah the Exalted warned: Surely they have disbelieved who say: 'Allah is the Messiah (Jesus), son of Mary." But the Messiah (Jesus) said: "O Children of Israel! Worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord." Verily whosoever sets up partners in worship with Allah, then Allah has forbidden Paradise for him, and the Fire will be his abode. And for the Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers) there are no helpers. Surely disbelievers are those who said: 'Allah is the third of the three (in a Trinity)." But there is no Ilah (god) (none who has the right to be worshipped) but One Ilah (God- Allah). And if they cease not from what they say verily a painful torment will befall the disbelievers among them. Will they not repent to Allah and ask His Forgiveness? For Allah is Oft-Forgiving Most Merciful. The Messiah (Jesus), son of Mary, was no more than a Messenger; many were the Messengers that passed a way before him. His mother (Mary) was a Siddiqah i.e. she believed in the Words of Allah and His Books. They both used to eat food (as any other human being, while Allah does not eat). Look how We make the Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) clear to them, yet look how they are deluded a way (from the truth). Surah 6: 72-75   Allah Disclaims Begetting Anyone - Surah 17 And Almighty Allah ordered: And say: 'All the praises and thanks be to Allah, Who has not begotten a son (nor an offspring), and Who has no partner in (His) Dominion, nor He is low to have a Wali (helper, protector or supporter). And magnify Him with all the magnificence, Allah u-Akbar (Allah is the Most Great). " Surah 17: 111   Allah Disclaims Begetting Anyone - Surah 112 The pagans once asked the Prophet Muhammad : 'To whom is your Lord related, His original ancestors and His various branches of descendants?" It is also reported that the Jews said: "We worship Ezra, the Son of Allah," and the Christians said: "Jesus is the Son of Allah," and the Magians said: "We worship the sun and the moon," and the Pagans said: "We worship idols." In response to all of them Allah revealed some of His attributes: Unity, Uniqueness, and other substantives: Say (0 Muhammad): "He is Allah, (the) One. Allah AsSamad (The Self-Sufficient Master, Whom all creatures need, He neither eats nor drinks). He begets not, nor was He begotten; and there is none co-equal or comparable unto Him. " Surah 112: 1-4 The Birth of Prophet Jesus (Isa)  Mary Receives News of Jesus While Mary was praying in the temple, an angel in the form of a man appeared before her. Filled with terror, she tried to flee, praying: "Verily! I seek refuge with the Most Beneficent (Allah) from you, if you do fear Allah." (The angel) said: "I am only a Messenger from your Lord, (to announce) to you the gift of a righteous son." She said: "How can I have a son, when no man has touched me, nor am I unchaste?" He said: "So (it will be), your Lord said: That is easy for me (Allah): And (We wish) to appoint him as a sign to mankind and a mercy from Us (Allah), and it is a matter (already) decreed, (by Allah). Surah 19: 18-21   The Brith of Jesus The angel's visit caused Mary great anxiety, which increased as the months went by. How could she face giving birth to a child without having a husband? Later, she felt life kicking inside her. With a heavy heart, she left the temple and went to Nazareth, the city in which she had been born where she settled in a simple farm house to avoid the public. But fear and anxiety did not leave her. She was from a noble and pious family. Her father had not been an evil man nor was her mother an impure woman. How could she prevent tongues from wagging about her honor? After some months, she could not bear the mental strain any longer. Burdened with a heavy womb, she left Nazareth, not knowing where to go to be away from this depressing atmosphere. She had not gone far, when she was overtaken by the pains of childbirth. She sat down against a dry palm tree, and here she gave birth to a son. Looking at her beautiful baby, she was hurt that she had brought him into the world without a father. She exclaimed: "I wish I had died before this happened and had vanished into nothingness!" Suddenly, she heard a voice nearby: "Grieve not, your Lord has placed a rivulet below, and shake the trunk of this tree, from which ripe dates will fall. So eat and drink and regain the strength you have lost; and be of good cheer, for what you see is the power of Allah, Who made the dry palm tree regain life, in order to provide food for you." For a while she was comforted by Allah's miracle, for it was a sure sign of her innocence and purity.   Mary Returns to the City with Jesus She decided to return to the city. However, her fears also returned. What was she going to tell the people? As if sharing his mother's worry, the baby began to speak: "If you meet any person say: 'I have vowed to fast for The Beneficent and may not speak to any human today."' With this miracle, Mary felt at ease. As she had expected, her arrival in the city with a newborn baby in her arms aroused the curiosity of the people. They scolded her: 'This is a terrible sin that you have committed." She put her finger to her lips and pointed to the child. They asked: "How can we speak to a newborn baby?" To their total amazement, the child began to speak clearly: "I am Allah's servant. Allah has given me the Book, and has made me a prophet, and has blessed me wherever I may be, and has enjoined on me prayers and alms-giving as long as I live. Allah has made me dutiful towards she who has borne me. He has not made me arrogant nor unblessed. Peace unto me the day I was born, the day I die and the day I shall be raised alive." Most of the people realized that the baby was unique, for if Allah wills something, He merely says "Be" and it happens. Of course, there were some who regarded the baby's speech as a strange trick, but at least Mary could now stay in Nazareth without being harassed.   Mary Receives News of Jesus - Qur'anic Allah the Exalted revealed: And mention in the Book (the Qur'an, 0 Muhammad the story of) Mary, when she withdrew in seclusion from her family to a place facing east. She placed a screen (to screen herself) from them; then We sent to her Our Ruh (angel Gabriel), and he appeared before her in the form of a man in all respects. She said: "Verily! I seek refuge with the Most Beneficent (Allah) from you, if you do fear Allah." (The angel) said: "I am only a Messenger from your Lord, (to announce) to you the gift of a righteous son." She said: "How can I have a son, when no man has touched me, nor am I unchaste?" He said: 'So (it will be), your Lord said: That is easy for Me (Allah): and (We wish) to appoint him as a sign to mankind and a mercy from Us (Allah), and it is a matter (already) decreed. (by Allah)." Surah 19: 16-21   The Birth of Jesus - Qur'anic So she conceived him, and she withdrew with him to a far place (ie., Bethlehem valley, about four to six miles from Jerusalem). And the pains of childbirth drove her to the trunk of a palm tree. She said: "Would that I had died before this, and had been forgotten and out of sight!" Then (the babe "Jesus" or Gabriel) cried unto her from below her, saying: "Grieve not! Your Lord has provided a water stream under you; and shake the trunk of palm tree to wards you, it will let fall fresh ripe dates upon you. So eat and drink and be glad, and if you see any human being, say. 'Verily! I have vowed a fast unto the Most Beneficent (Allah) so I shall not speak to any human being this day. Surah 22-26   Mary and Jesus Return to the City - Qur'anic Then she brought him (the baby) to her people, carrying him. They said: "0 Mary! Indeed you have brought a thing Fariyya (an unheard mighty thing). 0 sister (i.e. the like) of Aaron (not the brother of Moses, but he was another pious man at the time of Mary)! Your father was not a man who used to commit adultery, nor was your mother an unchaste woman." Then she pointed to him. They said: "How can we talk to one who is a child in the cradle?" He (Jesus) said: "Verily! I am a slave of Allah. He has given me the Scripture and made me a Prophet; And He has made me blessed wheresoever's I be, and has enjoined on me prayer, and Zakat, as long as I live, and dutiful to my mother, and made me not arrogant, unblest. And Salam (peace) be upon me the day I was born, and the day I die, and the day I shall be raised alive!" Surah 19: 27-33   Allah's Message About Jesus - Qur'anic Such is Jesus, son of Mary. (It is) a statement of truth, about which they doubt (or dispute). It befits not (the Majesty of) Allah that He should beget a son (this refers to the slander of Christians against Allah, by saying that Jesus is the son of Allah). Glorified (and Exalted be He above all that they associate with Him). When He decrees a thing. He only says to it, "Be!" - and it is. (Jesus said): 'And verily Allah is my Lord and your Lord. So worship Him (Alone). That is the Straight Path. (Allah Religion of Islamic Monotheism which He did ordain for all of His Prophets)." Then the sects differed (i.e., the Christians about Jesus), so woe unto the disbelievers (those who gave false witness saying that Jesus is the son of Allah) from the meeting of a great Day (i.e., the Day of Resurrection, when they will be thrown in the blazing Fire). How clearly will they (polytheists and disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah) see and hear, the Day when they will appear before Us! But the Zalimun (polytheists and wrongdoers) today are in plain error. And warn them (0 Muhammad) of the Day of grief and regrets, when the case has been decided, while (now) they are in a state of carelessness, and they believe not. Surah 19: 34-39   Some Stories About Mary's Pregnancy It was said that Joseph the Carpenter was greatly surprised when he knew the story, so he asked Mary: "Can a tree come to grow without a seed?" She said: "Yes, the one which Allah created for the first time." He asked her again: "Is it possible to bear a child without a male partner?" She said: "Yes, Allah created Adam without male or female!" It was also said that, while pregnant, Mary went one day to her aunt, who reported that she felt as if she was pregnant. Mary in turn said that she, too, was feeling as if she was pregnant. Then her aunt said: "I can see what is in my womb prostrating to what is in your womb."   Jesus Upsets the Jews The Jewish priests felt this child Jesus was dangerous, for they felt that the people would turn their worship to Allah the Almighty alone, displacing the existing Jewish tenets. Consequently, they would lose their authority over the people. Therefore, they kept the miracle of Jesus's speech in infancy as a secret and accused Mary of a great misdeed.   Jesus's Ability to Debate As Jesus grew, the signs of prophethood began to increase. He could tell his friends what kind of supper waited for them at home and what they had hidden and where. When he was twelve years old, he accompanied his mother to Jerusalem. There he wandered into the temple and joined a crowd listening to the lectures of the Rabbis (Jewish priests). The audience were all adults, but he was not afraid to sit with them. After listening intently, he asked questions and expressed his opinion. The learned rabbis were disturbed by the boy's boldness and puzzled by the questions he asked, for they were unable to answer him. They tried to silence him, but he ignored their attempts and continued to express his views. Jesus became so involved in this exchange that he forgot he was expected back home. In the meantime, his mother went home, thinking that he might have gone back with relatives or friends. When she arrived, she discovered that he was not there, so she returned to the city to look for him. At last she found him in the temple, sitting among the learned, conversing with them. He appeared to be quite at ease, as if he had been doing this all his life. Mary got angry with him for causing her worry. He tried to assure her that all the arguing and debating with the learned had made him forget the time.   Jesus Does Not Observe Sabbath Jesus grew up to manhood. It was Sabbath, a day of complete rest: no fire could be lit or extinguished, nor could females plait their hair. Moses had commanded that Saturday be dedicated to the worship of Allah. However, the wisdom behind the Sabbath and its spirit had gone, and only the letter remained in the Jews, hearts. Also, they thought that the Sabbath was kept in heaven, and that the People of Israel had been chosen by Allah only to observe the Sabbath. They made a hundred things unlawful on Saturday even self-defense or calling a doctor to save a patient who was in bad condition. This is how their life was branded by such hypocrisy. Although the Pharisees were guardians of the law, they were ready to sell it when their interests were involved so as to obtain personal gains. There was, for example, a rule which prohibited a journey of more than one thousand yards on the Sabbath day. What do we expect of the Pharisees in this case? The day before, they transferred their food and drink from their homes two thousand yards away and erected a temporary house so that from there they could travel a further thousand yards on the Sabbath day. Jesus was on his way to the temple. Although it was the Sabbath, he reached out his hand to pick two pieces of fruit to feed a hungry child. This was considered to be a violation of the Sabbath law. He made a fire for the old women to keep themselves warm from the freezing air. Another violation. He went to the temple and looked around. There were twenty thousand Jewish priests registered there who earned their living from the temple. The rooms of the temple were full of them.   Jesus Receives His Prophethood Jesus observed that the visitors were much fewer than the priests. Yet the temple was full of sheep and doves which were sold to the people to be offered as sacrifices. Every step in the temple cost the visitor money. They worshipped nothing but money. In the temple the Pharisees and Sadducees acted as if it were a market place, and these two groups always disagreed on everything. Jesus followed the scene with his eyes and observed that the poor people who could not afford the price of the sheep or dove were swept away like flies by the Pharisees and Saducees. Jesus was astonished. Why did the priests burn a lot of offerings inside the temple, while thousands of poor people were hungry outside it? On this blessed night, the two noble prophets John and Zechariah died, killed by the ruling authority. On the same night, the revelation descended upon Jesus . Allah the Exalted commanded him to begin his call to the children of Israel. To Jesus, the life of ease was closed, and the page of worship and struggle was opened.   Jesus's Message Like an opposing force, the message of Jesus came to denounce the practices of the Pharisees and Saducees and to reinforce the Law of Moses. In the face of a materialistic age of luxury and worship of gold, Jesus called his people to a nobler life by word and deed. This exemplary life was the only way out of the wretchedness and diseases of his age. Jesus's call, from the beginning, was marked by its complete uprightness and piety. It appealed to the soul, the inner being, and not to a closed system of rules laid down by society. Jesus continued inviting the people to Almighty Allah. His call was based on the principle that there is no mediation between the Creator and His creatures. However, Jesus was in conflict with the Jews' superficial interpretation of the Torah. He said that he did not come to abrogate the Torah, but to complete it by going to the spirit of its substance to arrive at its essence. He made the Jews understand that the Ten Commandments have more value than they imagined. For instance, the fifth commandment does not only prohibit physical killing, but all forms of killing: physical, psychological, or spiritual. And the sixth commandment does not prohibit adultery only in the sense of unlawful physical contact between a man and a woman, but also prohibits all forms of unlawful relations or acts that might lead to adultery. The eye commits adultery when it looks at anything with passion.   Jesus Denounces Materialism Jesus was therefore in confrontation with the materialistic people. He told them to desist from hypocrisy, show and false praise. There was no need to hoard wealth in this life. They should not preoccupy themselves with the goods of this passing world; rather they must preoccupy themselves with the affairs of the coming world because it would be everlasting. Jesus told them that caring for this world is a sin, not fit for pious worshipers. The disbelievers care for it because they do not know a better way. As for the believers, they know that their sustenance is with Allah, so they trust in Him and scorn this world. Jesus continued to invite people to worship the Only Lord, Who is without partner, just as he invited them to purify the heart and soul.   Jewish Priests Try to Embarrass Jesus His teaching annoyed the priests, for every word of Jesus was a threat to them and their position, exposing their misdeeds. The Roman occupiers had, at first, no intention of being involved in this religious discord of the Jews because it was an internal affair, and they saw that this dispute would distract the Jews from the question of the occupation. However, the priests started to plot against Jesus. They wanted to embarrass him and to prove that he had come to destroy the Mosaic Law. The Mosaic Law provides that an adulteress be stoned to death. They brought him a Jewish adulteress and asked Jesus: "Does not the law stipulate the stoning of the adulteress?" Jesus answered: "Yes." They said: "This woman is an adulteress." Jesus looked at the woman and then at the priests. He knew that they were more sinful than she. They agreed that she should be killed according to Mosaic Law, and they understood that if he was going to apply Mosaic Law, he would be destroying his own rules of forgiveness and mercy. Jesus understood their plan. He smiled and assented: "Whoever among you is sinless can stone her." His voice rose in the middle of the Temple, making a new law on adultery, for the sinless to judge sin. There was none eligible; no mortal can judge sin, only Allah the Most Merciful. As Jesus left the temple, the woman followed him. She took out a bottle of perfume from her garments, knelt before his feet and washed them with perfume and tears, and then dried his feet with her hair. Jesus turned to the woman and told her to stand up, adding: "0 Lord, forgive her sins." He let the priests understand that those who call people to Almighty Allah are not executioners. His call was based on mercy for the people, the aim of all divine calls.   Jesus's Brings the Dead to Life Jesus continued to pray to Allah for mercy on his people and to teach his people to have mercy on one another and to believe in Allah. Jesus continued his mission, aided by divine miracles. Some Qur'anic commentators said that Jesus brought four people back from the dead: a friend of his named Al-Azam, an old woman's son, and a woman's only daughter. These three had died during his lifetime. When the Jews saw this they said: "You only resurrect those who have died recently; perhaps they only fainted." They asked him to bring back to life Sam the Ibn Noah. When he asked them to show him his grave, the people accompanied him there. Jesus invoked Allah the Exalted to bring him back to life and behold, Sam the Ibn Noah came out from the grave gray-haired. Jesus asked: "How did you get gray hair, when there was no aging in your time?" He answered: "0, Spirit of Allah, I thought that the Day of Resurrection had come; from the fear of that day my hair turned gray."   The Miracles of Jesus - Qur'anic Allah the Almighty said: (Remember) when Allah will say (on the Day of Resurrection): 'O Jesus, son of Mary! Remember My Favor to you and to your mother when I supported you with Ruh-ul-Qudus (Gabriel) so that you spoke to the people in the cradle and in maturity and when I taught you writing Al-Hikmah (the power of understanding), the Torah and the Gospel; and when you made out of the clay, as it were, the figure of a bird, by My Permission, and you breathed into it, and it became a bird by My Permission, and you healed those born blind, and the lepers by My Permission, and when you brought forth the dead by My Permission; and when I restrained the Children of Israel from you (when they resolved to kill you) since you came unto them with clear proofs, and the disbelievers among them said: 'This is nothing but evident magic. And when I (Allah) put in the hearts of the disciples (of Jesus) to believe in Me and My Messenger, they said: "We believe. And bear witness that we are Muslims. " Surah 5: 110-111   Jesus's Abilities and Disciples - Qur'anic Almighty Allah also revealed: And He (Allah) will teach him (Jesus) the Book and Al-Hikmah (i.e. the Sunna, the faultless speech of the Prophets, wisdom, etc.), (and) the Torah and the Gospel. And will make him (Jesus) a Messenger to the Children of Israel (saying): "I have come to you with a sign from your Lord, that I design for you out of clay, as it were, the figure of a bird, and breathe into it, and it becomes a bird by Allah Leave; and I heal him who was born blind, and the leper, and I bring the dead to life by Allah's leave. And I inform you of what you eat, and what you store in your houses. Surely, therein is a sign for you, if you believe. And I have come confirming that which was before me of the Torah, and to make lawful to you part of what was forbidden to you, and I have come to you with proof from your Lord. So fear Allah and obey me. Truly! Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him (Alone). This is the Straight Path." Then when Jesus came to know of their disbelief he said: "Who will be my helpers in Allah's Cause?" The disciples said: "We are the helpers of Allah; we believe in Allah, and bear witness that we are Muslims (i.e. we submit to Allah)." Our Lord! We believe in what You have sent down, and we follow the Messenger (Jesus); so write us down among those who bear witness (to the truth i.e. La ilaha ill Allah - none has the right to be worshiped but Allah). And they (disbelievers) plotted (to kill Jesus), and Allah planned too. And Allah is the Best of the planners. Surah 3: 48-54   Allah Sends the Disciples a Feast Jesus continued calling people to Almighty Allah and laying down for them what might be called "the law of the Spirit." Once when standing on a mountain surrounded by his disciples, Jesus saw that those who believed in him were from among the poor, the wretched, and the downtrodden, and their number was small. Some of the miracles which Jesus performed had been requested by his disciples, such as their wish for a "holy table" to be sent down from heaven. Allah the Exalted said: (Remember) when the disciples said: "0 Jesus, son of Mary! Can your Lord send down to us a table spread (with food) from heaven?" Jesus said: "Fear Allah, if you are indeed believers." They said: "We wish to eat thereof and to be stronger in Faith, and to know that you have indeed told us the truth and that we ourselves be its witnesses." Jesus, son of Mary, said: "0 Allah, our Lord! Send us from heaven a table spread (with food) that there may be for us - for the first and the last of us - a festival and a sign from You; and provide us sustenance, for You are the Best of sustainers." Allah said: "I am going to send it down unto you, but if any of you after that disbelieves, then I will punish him with a torment such as I have not inflicted on anyone among (all) the Alamin (mankind and jinn)." Surah 5: 112-116 It was related that Jesus commanded his disciples to fast for thirty days; at the end of it, they asked Jesus to bring food from heaven to break their fast. Jesus prayed to Allah after his disciples had doubted Allah's power. The great table came down between two clouds, one above and one below, while the people watched. Jesus said: "0 Lord, make it a mercy and not a cause of distress." So it fell between Jesus's hands, covered with a napkin. Jesus suddenly prostrated and his disciples with him. They sensed a fragrance which they had never smelled before. Jesus said: 'The one who is the most devout and most righteous may uncover the table, that we might eat of it to thank Allah for it." They said: "0 Spirit of Allah, you are the most deserving." Jesus stood up, then performed ablution and prayed before uncovering the table, and behold, there was a roasted fish. The disciples said: "0 Spirit of Allah, is this the food of this world or of Paradise?" Jesus said to his disciples: "Did not Allah forbid you to ask questions? It is the divine power of Allah the Almighty Who said: 'Be,' and it was. It is a sign from Almighty Allah warning of great punishment for unbelieving mortals of the world. This is the kernel of the matter." It is said that thousands of people partook of it, and yet they never exhausted it. A further miracle was that the blind and lepers were cured. The Day of the Table became one of the holy days for the disciples and followers of Jesus. Later on, the disciples and followers forgot the real essence of the miracles, and so they worshipped Jesus as a god.   Allah's Questions to Jesus Almighty Allah asserted: And (remember) when Allah will say (on the Day of Resurrection): "0 Jesus son of Mary! Did you say unto men: 'Worship me and my mother as two gods besides Allah?"' He will say: "Glory be to You! It was not for me to say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing, You would surely have known it. You know what is in my inner-self though I do not know what is in Yours, truly, You, only You, are the All-Knower of all that is hidden and unseen. Never did I say to them aught except what You (Allah) did command me to say: 'Worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord', And I was a witness over them while I dwelt amongst them, but when You took me up, You were the Watcher over them, and You are a Witness to all things. (This is a great admonition and warning to the Christians of the whole world). If you punish them, they are Your slaves, and if You forgive them, Verily You, only You are the All-Mighty the All- Wise." Allah will say: 'This is a Day on which the truthful will profit from their truth: theirs are Gardens under which rivers flow (in Paradise) - they shall abide therein forever. Allah is pleased with them and they with Him. That is the great success (Paradise). To Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and all that is therein, and He is Able to do all things." Surah 5: 116-120   The Jews Plot to Kill Jesus Jesus went on with his mission until vice knew that its throne was threatening to fall. So the forces of evil accused him of magic, infringement of the Mosaic Law, allegiance with the devil; and when they saw that the poor people followed him, they began to scheme against him. The Sanhedrin, the highest judicial and eclesiastical council of the Jews, began to meet to plot against Jesus. The plan took a new turn. When the Jews failed to stop Jesus's call, they decided to kill him. The chief priests held secret meetings to agree on the best way of getting rid of Jesus. While they were in such a meeting, one of the twelve apostles of Jesus, Judas Iscariot, went to them and asked: "What will you give me if I deliver him to you?" Judas bargained with them until they agreed to give him thirty pieces of silver known as shekels. The plot was laid for the capture and murder of Jesus. It was said that the high priest of the Jews tore his garment at the meeting, claiming that Jesus had denied Judaism. The tearing of clothes at that time was a sign of disgust.   The Torture of Jesus The priests had no authority to pass the death sentence at that time, so they convinced the Roman governor that Jesus was plotting against the security of the Roman Empire and urged him to take immediate action against him. The governor ordered that Jesus be arrested. According to the Book of Matthew, Jesus was arrested and the council of the high priests passed the death sentence upon him. Then, they began insulting him, spitting on his face and kicking him. It was the Roman custom for the condemned to be flogged before they were executed. So Pilate, the Roman governor, ordered that Jesus be flogged. The Mosaic Law stipulates forty lashes, but the Romans had no limit, and they were brutal lashes. After that, Jesus was handed to the soldiers for crucifixion. They took off his clothes and kept them. They put a crown of thorns on his head to mock him. According to custom he carried his cross on his back to increase his suffering.   Jesus's Crucifixion - Bible Version Finally, they reached a place called Golgotha, meaning the Place of Skulls, outside the walls of Jerusalem. Instead of giving him a cup of wine diluted with scent to help lessen the pain on the cross, the soldiers gave Jesus a cup of vinegar diluted with gall. Then they crucified him and, as a further mockery, two thieves with him. So it is written in the Bible.   Jesus's Crucifixion - Qur'anic But the faith of Islam came with views quite different from that of the extant gospels with regards to both the end of Jesus and his nature. The Glorious Qur'an affirms that Allah the Exalted did not permit the people of Israel to kill Jesus or crucify him. What happened was that Allah saved him from his enemies and raised him to heaven. They never killed Jesus; they killed someone else. Allah the Almighty declared: And because of their saying (in boast), "We killed Messiah Jesus, son of Mary the Messenger of Allah," - but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but the resemblance of Jesus was put over another man (and they killed that man), and those who differ therein are full of doubts. They have no (certain) knowledge, they follow nothing but conjecture. For surely; they killed him not (i.e. Jesus, son of Mary): But Allah raised him (Jesus) up (with his body and soul) unto Himself (and he is in the heavens). And Allah is Ever All-Powerful, all- Wise. And there is none of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), but must believe in him (Jesus, son of Mary as only a Messenger of Allah and a human being), before his (Jesus or a Jew's or a Christian's) death (at the time of the appearance of the angel of death). And on the Day of Resurrection, he (Jesus) will be a witness against them. Surah 4: 157-159 Almighty Allah also revealed: And (remember) when Allah said: "0 Jesus! I will take you and raise you to Myself and clear you (of the forged statement that Jesus is Allah son) of those who disbelieve, and I will make those who follow you (Monotheists, who worship none but Allah) superior to those who disbelieve (in the Oneness of Allah, or disbelieve in some of His Messengers, e.g. Muhammad, Jesus, Moses, etc., or in His Holy Books, e.g. the Torah, the Gospel, the Qur'an) till the Day of Resurrection. Then you will return to Me and I will judge between you in the matters in which you used to dispute.
Surah 3: 55

"Mother's Day"

"Mother's Day"

Praise be to Allaah and blessings and peace be upon the Messenger of Allaah. Intoduction: The Prophet (saw) told us that his ummah would follow the previous nations, the Jews, Christians and Persians, but this was undoubtedly not praise for their acti...ons, rather it is by way of condemnation and a warning. It was narrated from Abu Sa’eed (r.a.) that the Prophet (saw) said: “You will certainly follow the ways of those who came before you, handspan by handspan, cubit by cubit, until even if they entered the hole of a lizard, you will do so too.” We asked, “O Messenger of Allaah, (do you mean) the Jews and the Christians?” He said, “Who else?” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, Muslim). It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah (r.a.) that the Prophet (saw) said: “The Hour will not begin until my ummah follows in the footsteps of those who came before it, handspan by handspan, cubit by cubit.” It was asked, “O Messenger of Allaah, like the Persians and Romans?” He said, “Those are the people?” The ignorant among this ummah, and the innovators and heretics have followed the previous nations, the Jews, Christians and Persians, in their beliefs, ways, manners and dress. Our concern here is to point out in these days their following and imitation of them through the innovation of “Mother’s Day” or “Family Day”, which is a day that the Christians innovated to honour mothers, or so they claim. This then became a day that was venerated, when government departments would be shut and people would get in touch with their mothers or send them gifts and loving messages. But when the day was over, things would go back to the way they were, with people being cut off from their mothers and disobeying them. What is strange is that the Muslims would feel a need to imitate them in such ways, when Allaah has commanded them to honour their mothers and has forbidden them to disobey them, and has made the reward for that (for obeying them) the highest status. And Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): “And your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him. And that you be dutiful to your parents. If one of them or both of them attain old age in your life, say not to them a word of disrespect, nor shout at them but address them in terms of honour” [al-Isra’ 17:23] It was narrated that Abu Hurayrah (r.a.) said: “A man came to the Messenger of Allaah (saw) and said: ‘O Messenger of Allaah, who among the people is most deserving of my good company?’ He said, ‘Your mother.’ He asked, ‘Then who?’ He said, ‘Your mother.’ He asked, ‘Then who?’ He said, ‘Your mother.’ He asked, ‘Then who?’ He said, ‘Then your father.’” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, Muslim) Al- Haafiz ibn Hajar said: “Ibn Battaal said: what this means is that the mother should be honoured three times more than the father. He said, that is because of the difficulties of pregnancy, then giving birth, then breastfeeding. These are hardships that are experienced only by the mother, then the father shares with her in raising the child. This is also referred to in the aayah (interpretation of the meaning): ‘And We have enjoined on man (to be dutiful and good) to his parents. His mother bore him in weakness and hardship upon weakness and hardship, and his weaning is in two years’ This is better and more eloquent than the western innovation of singling out just one day in the year for honouring one's mother, then neglecting her for the rest of the year, whilst also ignoring the rights of fathers and other relatives. The great mischief that results from this will be obvious to anyone who has insight, along with the fact that it is contrary to the laws of the Wisest of rulers and is bound to cause that which His trustworthy Messenger warned us against. Allah knows best.....

The question which remains is Did God become Man?

  Posted by: Adjoel Mohammad
The question which remains is Did God become Man?


Logically speaking, the answer is no because the concept of God becoming man contradicts the basic meaning of the term “God.” People commonly say that God is able to do all things; whatever He wants to do, He can do. In the Bible of Christians it is said, “... through God all things are possible ( Matthew, 19: 26; Mark 10: 27, 14: 36 ).”
The Qur’aan of Muslims states, “Indeed, Allah (God) is able to do all things.”
[Surah Baqarah (2):20]…and the Hindu scriptures carry texts of similar meanings.
All the major religious texts contain general expressions regarding the basic concept of God’s omnipotence. He is Greater than all things, and through Him all things are possible. If this general concept is to be translated into practical terms, one has to first identify and understand the basic attributes of God. Most societies perceive God as an eternal being without beginning or end. If, on the basis that God is able to do all things, and it was asked whether God could die, what would be the answer? Since dying is part of “all things,” can it be said, “If He wants to?” Of course this cannot be said.
So, there is a problem here. God is defined as being ever-living, without end, and dying means “coming to an end.” Consequently, to ask if He can die is actually a nonsensical question. It is self- contradictory. Similarly, to ask whether God can be born, is also absurd because God has already been defined as eternal, having no beginning. Being born means having a beginning, coming into existence after not existing. In this same vein, atheist philosophers enjoy asking theists: “Can God create a stone too heavy for Him to lift?” If the theist says yes, it means that God can create something greater than Himself. And if he says no, it means that God is unable to do all things.Therefore, the term “all things” in the phrase “God is able to do all things” excludes the absurdities. It cannot include things that contradict His divine attributes; things that would make Him less than God, like, forgetting, sleeping, repenting, growing, eating, etc. Instead, it includes only “all things” that are consistent with Him being God. This is what the statement “God is able to do all things” means. It cannot be understood in the absolute sense; it must be qualified.The claim that God became man is also an absurdity. It is not befitting of God to take on human characteristics because it means that the Creator has become His creation. However, the creation is a product of the creative act of the Creator. If the Creator became His creation, it would mean that the Creator created Himself, which is an obvious absurdity. To be created, He would first have to not exist, and, if He did not exist, how could He then create? Furthermore, if He were created, it would mean that He had a beginning, which also contradicts His being eternal. By definition creation is in need of a creator. For created beings to exist they must have a creator to bring them into existence. God cannot need a creator because God is the Creator. Thus, there is an obvious contradiction in terms. The claim that God became His creation implies that He would need a creator, which is a ludicrous concept. It contradicts the fundamental concept of God being uncreated, needing no creator and being the Creator.

Can Man Become God?Man is a finite being (i.e., creation). Man is born, and he dies. These are characteristics which cannot be attributed to God because they equate Him with His creation. Therefore, God did not and will not ever become man. On the other hand, man also cannot become God. The created cannot become its own creator. The created at one time did not exist. It came into being by the creative act of a Creator who always existed. What is nonexistent cannot make itself exist.
As for the parallel concept that the human soul or spirit is divine, it is a way of claiming that man can become God. This philosophy forms the foundation of Greek, Christian and Muslim mysticism, as well as Hindu theology, and extends divinity to all humans and possibly all living creatures. It starts from the premise that, at some time in the history of the universe, bits and pieces of God became surrounded by material bodies and were confined to the earth. In other words, the infinite became contained in the finite. This belief attributes pure evil to God and ultimately eliminates the meaning of good and evil all together. When the human soul intends evil and does it by God’s permission, such an act is purely evil and worthy of punishment. Hence, the concept of karma was invented. Whatever goes around comes around. Karma explains inexplicable suffering by claiming that it is the consequence of evil in a previous life. God ultimately punishes any evil done by the parts of Himself within man. However, if human souls have independent wills from God, they cannot be at the same time God. Thus, each human becomes himself a god.
Did God have a Son?
If God did not become Man, did He have a son? Since He is able to do all things, He should be able to have a son. However, this claim reduces God to the lowly status of His creation. Creatures procreate by giving birth to mini versions of themselves that later grow up and reproduce copies of themselves, and so on and so forth. Dogs have puppies, cats have kittens, cows have calves, and men have children. So, what does God have – a baby God? Gods must give birth to Gods. But, for God to have a son, there has to exist another God besides Him. It is not befitting for God to have a son as such an act equates Him with His creation.
Everything other than God comes into existence by the commandment of God, not that God becomes His creation or a part of God becomes creation. God does not become His creation nor does God give birth to creation. God is God, the Creator, and man and the contents of the universe are His creation. Although humans cannot grasp the concept of creation from nothing, that is exactly what God did and does. He alone creates from nothing, which 1s among the attributes that make Him unique and distinct from His creation. His act of creation is entirely different from that of human beings.
This was the essence of the message of all the true messengers and prophets of God sent to humanity – Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad – as well as those sent throughout the world whose names are now unknown to humanity - may God’s peace and blessings be on them all. Today, this precise message can only be found in the Qur’aan; the last scripture revealed by God to humankind. The message remains loud and clear only in the Qur’aan because it has remained unchanged since the time of its revelation, one thousand four hundred years ago, until today.
God states in the Qur’aan for those who make Him like His creation or vice versa:
“There is nothing similar to Him.”
[Surah ash-Shooraa (42):11]
He also states for those who attributed to Him a son:
“But it is not suitable for Ar-Rahmaan (the Most Beneficent -Allah) that He should beget a child.”
[Surah Maryam (19):92]
He further states for those who believe that He created the world from Himself:
“If He wishes anything to exist, He merely commands it: ‘Be’, and it is.”
[Surah Yaa Seen (36):82]
For the polytheists He states:
“There was no other god along with Him, for if there were each would have taken away what he created and tried to overcome the other.”
[Surah al-Mu´minoon (23):91]
He asks the atheists:
“Did nothing create them or did they create themselves?”
[Surah at-Toor (52):35]
And in reference to Jesus and his mother, Mary, He confirmed their humanity by saying simply:
“They both used to eat food.”
[Surah al-Maa`idah (5):75]
The concept of God not becoming man is very important for every human being to grasp because it lies at the foundation of the difference between Islam and all other existing religions. All other religions have a distorted concept of God, to one degree or another. The most important idea which needs to be understood, is that God did not become man. God is unique; He alone deserves to be worshipped by His creation. To believe that a man is God or that a man became God and to worship that man is the greatest sin and the greatest evil that humans can do on this earth. This understanding is most important because it forms the foundation for salvation. There can be no salvation without it. However, this belief alone is not the key salvation. True, correct belief must be translated into practice, and not merely remain in the realm of knowledge, for it to become pure faith. A person has to live a righteous life based on the correct belief to attain salvation. Nevertheless, the starting point is, knowing who God is, knowing that God never became and will never become a human being.

SIYA AY SUMAGOT;  MAY SAMPUNG TANDA UKOL DITO:   una:   عرفتم الله و لم تؤدوا حقه NAKILALA NA NINYO SI ALLAH BILANG DIYOS NA TAGAPAGLIKHA NGUNIT HINDI NINYO IBINABALIK ANG KARAPATAN NIYA.   ibig sabihin nito ay hindi nag sasalah o gumagawa ng ibadah alang alang kay Alla aza wa jal. ito ay isa sa mga dahila kung bakit hindi dinirinig ang du'ah.   ikalawa:   قرأتم كتاب الله ولم تعلموا به BINABASA NINYO ANG REBELASYON NI ALLAH NGUNIT HINDI NINYO ISINASAPAMUHAY ANG MGA ARAL NA NARIRITO.   ibig sabihin nito binabasa ang Qur'an ngunit hindi nmn isinasapamuhay ito, kaya hindi rin diringgin ang dasal.   ikatlo:   ادعيتم حب رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم   وتركتم سنته SINASAMBIT NINYONG MAHAL NINYO ANG SUGO NI ALLAH NGUNIT HINDI NINYO ISINASAPAMUHAY ANG MGA SUNNAH NIYA   ibig sabihin nito sinasabi na mahal ninyo ang SUgo pero ayaw nyo namang sumunod sa sunnah niya. halimbawa:  ang pagpapahaba ng balbas.. ang pananamit ng mga kababaihan na dapat naka hijab.   ikaapat:   ادعيتم عداوة الشيطان واتقمواه SINASABI  NINYONG SI IBLIS AY HAYAG NA KALABAN NGUNIT HINDI NINYO NAMAN SIYA INIIWASAN.   ibig sabihin nito sinisundan ninyo parin ang landas ni iblis halimbawa: ang pagdiriwang ng mga birthday at iba pang mga okasyon ng mg kuffar.   ikalima:   قلتم نحب الجنة و لم تعملوا بها SINASABI NINYONG GUSTO NINYO NG PARAISO NGUNIT HINDI NAMAN NINYO PINAGSISIKAPANG MAKAMIT ITO.   sa halip na gawain ng magtutungo sa paraiso ang inyong ginagawa ay gawain na papunta sa impiyerno ang inyong pinag gagawa.   ikaanim:   قلتم نخاف النار ورهتم أنفسهم بها SINASABI NINYONG TAKOT KAYONG MAPARUSAHAN SA APOY NGUNIT INIHUHULOG NAMAN NINYO ANG INYONG SARILING MASUNOG DITO.   ayan eto matindi,, takot maparusahan pero puro labas sa islam ang inyong pinag gagawa kaya hindi diringgin ang mga du'ah.   ikapito:   قلتم إنّ الموت حق و لم تستعدوا له SINASABI NINYONG KATOTOHANAN ANG KAMATAYAN NGUNIT HINDI NAMAN NINYO ITO PINAGHAHANDAAN.   naniniwala sa kamatayan...? pero wala nmn ginagawa sa halip ay happy go lucky na laman..   ikawalo:   اشتغلتم بعيوب إخوانكم وتركتم عيوبكم PALAGIANG ANG MGA MALI NG INYONG KAPATID ANG INYONG PINUPUNA, NGUNIT ANG SARILI NINYONG KAMALIAN AY HINDI NINYO PINIBIGYANG PANSIN.   lagi na lang kapatid ninyo ang inyong nakikita.. bakit hindi ninyo linisan muna ang inyong mga bakuran bago kayo pumasok sa bakuran ng iba..   ikasiyam:   أكلتم نعمة ربكم و لم تؤدوا حقه KINAKAIN NINYO ANG MARAMING PAGPAPALA NG INYONG PANGINOON, NGINIT HINDI NINYO IBINABALIK ANG KANYANG KARAPATAN.   marami sa inyo alhamdulillah, biniyayaan ng mga klaseng pagpapala, una kayamanan, ikalawa marami kang mga pagkain ikatlo mga kaalaman. ang tanong ko ay ganito.... naibabalik ninyo ba ang tamang pasasalamat kay Allah aza wa jal? sapat na ba ang ya Allah thank you kasi marami akong pera? ya Allah salamat kasi marami akong pagkain? ya Allah salamat kasi matalino ako? sapat na ba ang salitang thank you? hindi ito sapat! sa aral ng Islam tinuruan tayo kung paano mag pasalamat sa tamang pamamaraan, kung ikaw ay mayaman, mag kawanggawa ka, kung ikaw naman ay mayroong maraming pagkain magpakain ka ng mga mahihirap at kung ikaw naman ay matalino dapat magturo ka. ito ay ilan lamang sa mga halimbawa ng mga klase ng pagpapasalamat kay Allah aza wa jal.   ika sampu:   دفنتم موتاكم ولم تعتبروا بهم INILILIBING NINYO ANG MGA NANGAMATAY MULA SA INYO NGUNIT  HINDI NINYO KINAPUPULATAN NG MGA ARAL ANG PAGYAO.   marami na sa atin ang namamatay pero di parin natututo. pero kasamaan parin ang ginagawa,   ito ang sampung dahilan kung bakit hindi dinirinig ang ating mga DU'ah. in sha Allah nawa ay maiwasan natin ang mga ito. maganda ang aral sa Islam, inuutsan tayo na palagiang humiling kay Allah, kasabay nito ang pag hiling na may pagmamakumbaba dahil sinabi ni Allah sa banal na Qur'an:   وَقَالَ رَبُّكُمُ ادْعُونِي أَسْتَجِبْ لَكُمْ إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ عَنْ عِبَادَتِي سَيَدْخُلُونَ جَهَنَّمَ دَاخِرِينَ غافر 40:60 “HUMILING KAYO SA AKIN, TUTUGUNIN KO ITO PARA SA INYO, TUNAY NA SILANG NAGMAMALAKI MULA SA AKIN SA PAGSAMBA AY PAPASOK NG IMPIERNO NA ISANG DHAKIRIN(NASA KALAGAYANG SINISI)” GAFIR 40:60   فَاذْكُرُونِي أَذْكُرْكُمْ وَاشْكُرُواْ لِي وَلاَ تَكْفُرُون “ALALAHANIN NINYO AKO, AALALAHANIN KO KAYO AT MAGPASALAMAT KAYO SA AKIN AT HUWAG KAYONG MAGKAKAFIR” ALBAQARAH 2:152   nawa tayo ay pagpalain ni Allah aza wa jal.

Ang Ating magiting na Khalipa Uthman bin Affan

Posted by : InshaAllah Jannah

 

 

Ang Ating magiting na Khalipa Uthman bin Affan 

Sa isang Hadith ang Propeta (sas) ay nagsabi: "Ang Bawat Propeta ay may assistant o kasama, at ang magiging kasama o assistant ko ay si Uthman."

Si Uthman bin Affan ay isinilang pitong taon makalipas ang pagsilang ng marangal na Propeta (sas). Siya ay nagmula sa Omayyad na sangay ng tribo ng Quraish. Siya ay natutong bumasa at sumulat sa murang idad at maaga rin siyang naging isang matagumpay na mangangalakal. Maging sa panahon na wala pa sa kanila ang Islam siya ay kilala sa kanyang katapatan at pagiging matuwid. Siya at si Abu Bakr ay matalik na magkaibigan at si Abu Bakr ang siyang nag-akay sa kanya tungo sa Islam nang siya ay nasa idad na tatlumpu at apat. Makalipas ang ilang taon, napangasawa niya ang pangalawang anak na babae ng Propeta na si Ruqayya. Sa kabila ng kanyang kayamanan at posisyon, siya ay dumanas pa rin ng pagpapahirap ng kanyang mga kamag-anak dahil sa kanyang pagyakap sa Islam at siya ay napilitang lumikas patungong Abissinia. Sa bandang huli siya ay bumalik sa Makkah ayt hindi nagtagal ay muling lumikas patungong Madinah kasama ng iba pang mga Muslim. Sa Madinah ay muling nagsimulang yumabong ang kanyang negosyo at kanyang nakamtan muli ang dati niyang kasaganaan. Ang pagkakawanggawa niya ay walang limit, may mga okasyon na siya ay gumugugol ng malaking bahagi mula sa kanyang kayamanan para sa pangangailangan ng mga Muslim, para sa kawanggawa at kagamitan ng mga Muslim na mandirigma. Kaya siya ay nakilala bilang "Ghani" na ang kahulugan ay "Bukas Palad".

Bago maganap ang digmaan sa Badr, ang kanyang asawa na si Ruqayya ay may malubhang karamdaman at siya ay pinigilan ng Propeta (sas) na makipagdigma. Ang karamdaman ni Ruqayya ang nagging sanhi ng kanyang kamatayan, na nag-iwan kay Uthman ng lubos na kalungkutan. Ang Propeta ay gumawa ng hakbang at inialok niya kay Uthman ang kamay ng isa pa niyang anak na babae na si Kulthum. Dahil sa kanyang mataas na pribilehiyo na napangasawa niya ang dalawa sa mga anak ng Propeta, si Uthman ay nakilala bilang "Ang nagkamit ng dalawang liwanag."

Si Uthman ay nakipagdigma sa labanan sa Uhud at sa labanan sa Bambang. Pagkatapos ng sagupaan sa Bambang, ang Propeta (sas) ay nagpasya na magsagawa ng Hajj at ipinadala si Uthman bilang kanyang emisaryo sa Quraish sa Makkah at kanila itong ikinulong. Ang pangyayaring yaon ay humantong o natapos sa pagkakaroon ng kasunduan sa pagitan ng mga taga Makkah na tinaguriang Kasunduan sa Hudaibiya.

Si Uthman ay mailalarawan sa kanyang pagiging ordinaryo, katapatan, pagkamahinahon, bukas-palad at napakabait na tao, higit siyang kilala sa kanyang pagkamahiyain at pagkamakadiyos. Kanyang ginugugol ang ilang bahagi ng gabi sa pagdarasal, nag-aayuno tuwing ikalawa o ikatlong araw, nagsasagawa ng Hajj taon-taon, at nakasubaybay sa mga pangangailangan ng buong kumunidad. Sa kabila ng kanyang kayamanan, ang kanyang pamumuhay ay napaka simple at siya ay natutulog sa buhanginan sa paligid ng masjid ng Propeta (sas). Nalalaman ni Uthman ang Qur'an mula sa kanyang memorya at siya ay may malalim na kaalaman sa konteksto at pangyayari na nauugnay sa bawat ayah.

Nang si Umar ay nakaratay sanhi ng kanya sugat na tinamo noong siya ay saksakin ng taong gusting pumatay sa kanya, bago siya mamatay ay sinabi sa kanya ng mga tao na magbigay siya ng kanyang kahalili. "Hinirang ni Umar ang kumite na binubuo ng anim sa sampong kasamahan ng Propeta (sas) na kanyang sinabi, "Sila ay mga tao ng Paraiso." Sila ay sina Ali, Uthman, Abdur Rahman, Sa'ad, Al-Zubayr at Talha, upang pumili mula sa kanila ng susunod na Khalipa. Ibinigay din niya ang patakaran na dapat sundin sa pagpili kung may pagkakaiba-iba ng mga opinion. Iwinidro ni Abdur Rahman ang kanyang pangalan. At siya ay binigyan ng kumite ng katungkulan na magnominate ng Khalipa. Matapos ang dalawang araw na pagdidisisyon sa mga kandidato at matapos makuha ang opinion ng mga Muslim sa Madinah, sa huli ang pagpipilian na lamang ay sina Uthman at Ali. Dumating sa mosque si Abdur Rahman kasama ang iba pang mga Muslim at matapos ang maikling pananalita at pagtatanong sa dalawa, sila ay nanumpa ng pag-anib kay Uthman. Ang lahat ng naroroon ay nanumpa rin, at si Uthman ang naging pangatlong Khalipa sa Islam na naganap sa buwan ng Muharram 24 A.H.

Sa mga panahon ng pamamahala ni Uthman, ang mga katangian ng pamamahala nina Abu Bakar at Umar – pantay na katarungan para sa lahat, katamtaman at makataong pamamalakad, pagpupunyagi sa landas ng Panginoon, at pagpapalaganap ng Islam – ay ipinagpatuloy. Ang pamamahala ni Uthman sag awing kanluran ay umabot hanggang Morocco, sa gawing silangan ay umabot hanggang Afghanistan at sa norte ay umabot hanggang Armenia at Azerbaijan. Sa panahon ng kanyang pamamahala, ang hukbong pandagat ay naging maayos, maraming mga pampublikong proyekto ang napalaki at nakompleto. Ipinadala ni Uthman ang mga prominenteng kasamahan ng Propeta (sas) bilang kanyang mga personal na assistant sa mga probinsya upang sumubaybay sa asal ng mga opisyal at kondisyon ng mga tao.

Ang pinakamalaking naiambag ni Uthman sa relihiyon ng Allah ay ang pakulekta sa mga sipi ng Qur'an at pagbuo nito. Ang malaking bilang ng aklat na ito ginawa at ikinalat o ipinamahagi sa mga kamusliman.

Ang pamamahala ni Uthman ay tumagal sa loob ng labing-dalawang taon. Ang unang anim na taon ay nag-iwan ng bakas ng kapayapaan at katahimikan, subalit sa sumunod na anim na taon ng kanyang panunungkulan, ang rebelyon ay sumiklab. Ang mga Hudyo at Mago ang nanguna sa pag-aaklas ng mga tao laban sa pamamahala ni Uthman, at sa pamamagitan ng pampublikong pagsisiwalat ng kanilang mga reklamo at akosasyon, nakuha nila ang malaking simpatya na ito ang siyang nagpahirap upang kilalanin kung sino baga ang kaibigan o kaaway.

Ito ay isang kataka-taka na ang pinuno ng malaking teretoryo, na ang kanyang mga sundalo ay walang kapantay sa dami ay walang kakayanang pakitunguhan ang mga nag-aaklas o rebelde. Kung nanaisin lamang ni Uthman, anumang oras ay kaya niyang wasakin ang mga pag-aaklas kung ito ay kanyang ipag-uutos. Subalit siya sang-ayon na ang manguna sa pagpapadanak ng dugo ay ang mga Muslim, kahit anumang pag-aaklas ang kanilang gawin. Kanyang minabuti na magdahilan sa kanila, upang kumbinsihin sila ng may kabaitan at bagbibigay. Naalala niya ang kanyang narinig sa Prpeta (sas) nang kanyang sinabi: "Kapag ang espada ay nahugot sa kaluban ng aking mga tagasunod, ito ay hindi na maibabalik sa kanyang kaluban o lalagyan hanggang sa Huling Araw."
Ang mga rebelde ay humiling na siya ay magbitiw at ang ilan sa mga Sahabah ay nagpayo sa kanya na gawin niya iyon. Siya ay nasisiyahan na gawin ang gayong aksiyon, subalit muli ay naging malinaw sa kanya ang kanyang sinumpaan sa Propeta. Minsan ay sinabi sa kanya ng Propeta, "Maaring bihisan ka ng Allah ng damit, Uthman. At kung naisin ng mga tao na hubarin mo ito, huwag mo itong hubarin para sa kanila." Sinabi ni Uthman sa kanyang mga tagasunod noong araw na ang kanyang tahanan ay napaliligiran ng mga rebelde, "Ang Sugo ng Allah ay gumawa ng kasunduan sa akin at nais kong magpakita ng pagpupunyagi na ito ay aking pinahahawakan."

Makalipas ang mahabang pagkubkob, pinasok ng mga rebelde ang kanyang tahanan at pinatay siya. Nang angespada ng unang kriminal ay itaga kay Uthman, kanyang binibigkas ang ayah na,

"Kung sa gayon, sapat na ang Allah sa inyo laban sa kanila. At Siya ang Ganap na Nakakarinig, ang Tigib ng Kaalaman." (2:137)

Si Uthman ay namatay hapon ng Biyernes, ika – 17 ng Dhul Hijja, 35 A.H. (June 656 A.C.) ang kanyang idad ay walumput-apat. Malakas ang kapangyarihan ng mga rebelde kung kaya ang katawan ni Uthman ay hindi nailibing hanggang sa gabi ng Sabado, nang siya ay ilibing ay suot niya ang kanyang duguang damit, ang siyang balabal ng lahat ng mga namatay sa kapakanan ng Allah.

PAALAALA SA MGA GUMAGAMIT NG FACEBOOK

 
PAALAALA SA MGA GUMAGAMIT NG FACEBOOK

Musta na po ang Da'wah natin dyan mga Brothers and Sister ko sa pananampalatayang ISLAM.... BILANG PAALAALA! UNA PO SA AKIN SARILI, NA ANG PAGGAMIT NG FB AY TUNAY NA NAKAKASAGABAL SA ATING PAGSAMBA KAYA PO LAGI NATIN IISIPIN NA ANG PAGGAMIT NG MGA KUMIKINANG NA BAGAY SA MUNDONG ITO AY GAMITIN PO NATIN PARA MAKADAGDAG SA ATING MGA MABUBUTING GAWA PAGDATING SA KABILANG BUHAY... INSHAALLAH PO!  MGA BROTHERS & SISTERS AY IIWAN PO SANA NATIN ANG FB O ANUMANG GAWAIN NA MAKAKAHADLANG SA PAGSAMBA SA ALLAH (swt), KAYA PO PAALAALA PO LAMANG NA ANG PAG-SASALAH NATIN AY HWAG NATING KALILIMUTAN SA TAKDANG ORAS NITO... YAN LAMANG PO MGA BROTHERS & SISTERS. As-salamo alaykom wa rahmatulahi wa barakatuh!

Ang PAGDARASAL ito ang pinakamataas na uri ng pakikipag-ugnayan natin sa ating Tagapalikha. Ang Propeta Muhammad (saws) ay kinakailangan pang umakyat sa kalangitan upang tanggapin ang kautusan hinggil sa Salah. Ang pagkakaiba ng Muslim at hindi Muslim ay ang pagdarasal. Halos ipag-utos ng Propeta (saws) na sunugin ang bahay ng mga taong hindi


nagdarasal sa Masjid.

Sinabi ng Propeta (saws): “Kung alam ninyo lamang ang gantimpala ng pagdarasal,

baka kahit ang gumapang ay gagawin ninyo upang makuha lamang ito.”


Kaya nga kahit na ang isang taong maysakit, kahit sa pamamagitan na lamang ng kurap
ng mata ay kinakailangang magdasal pa rin siya. Kung hindi niya kaya ang yumuko
o tumayo, kahit ang umupo o humiga ay sapat na, ang mahalaga ay makapagdasal
siya. Kahit na walang sapat na tubig, pwede siyang mag-tayammum (tuyong
paglilinis) sa pamamagitan ng buhangin o alikabok.

Sinabi ng Allah (swt): “Bantayang ninyong mabuti ang inyong mga Salah, lalung-lalo na ang panggitnang Salah (Asr), at humarap sa Allah ng buong pagsusumamo.”Kabanata 2: 238


Sinabi ng Propeta Muhammad (saws):

“Ang kauna-unahang itatanong at titimbangin sa mga alipin ng Allah sa Araw ng Paghuhukom ay ang Salah. Kung ito ay mabuti, ang kanyang mga ginawa ay magiging mabuti rin; at kung ito ay masama (kulang-kulang, hindi kumpleto), ang kanyang mga ginawa ay magiging masama rin.
  Sinabi rin ng Allah (swt): “Ang mga mananampalataya na magtatagumpay ay yaong nagpapakumbaba sa kanilang mga panalangin” Kabanata 23:1-2

Ang taimtim at tunay na pananalangin na base sa pagpapakumbaba at pagpapasakop ay nagbibigay ng liwanag sa mga puso, naglilinis sa mga kaluluwa ng tao at nagtuturo sa mga mananampalataya ng tunay na kahulugan ng pagsamba at nagpapaalala sa kanyang mga obligasyon sa harapan ng Nag-iisang Tunay na Diyos na Tagapaglikha. Dahil sa pamamagitan lamang ng pagdarasal, naitatanim sa puso ng isang mananampalataya ang Kaluwalhatian at Kadakilaan ng Allah.


Ang PAGDARASAL ay nagdudulot at nagkakaloob ng karangalan sa isang mananampalataya sa pamamagitan ng pagkakaroon niya ng napakataas at napakahusay na karakter tulad halimbawa ng pagiging makatotohanan, pagiging matapat, mapagpakumbaba, mahusay na integridad, maunawain, makatarungan, maaawain, matulungin at mapagbigay. Itinataas siya ng kanyang pagdarasal at idinidirekta siya sa harapan ng Nag-iisang Tunay na Tagapaglikha, na nagbibigay ng ibayong takot at tunay na pagmamahal sa Tagapaglikha.

ANG PAGDARASAL BILANG REMEDYO SA SAKIT NG PUSO

Madali tayong madadarang ng mga tukso, at madali tayong manghihina sa mga pagsubok na ibibigay sa atin ng Allah kung ang ating spiritual ay mahina. Ang iba pa nga, dahil sa kahinaan ng kanilang spiritual ay nagagawang sisihin ang Allah gayung wala naman tayong
karapatan na sisihin Siya. Kapag mahina ang ating spiritual, magagawa nating sisihin ang lahat ng mga tao sa lahat ng mga bagay na nangyayari sa atin. Madali tayong mainis at mabugnot. Ang solusyon ay pakainin natin ang ating spiritual na katauhan sa pamamagitan ng Salah. Dito ay makikita natin ang tunay na pagkakapatiran at ang pagkakapantay-pantay nating mga Muslim, walang mahirap o mayaman, puti ka man o anumang kulay, sa pagdarasal ay iisa lamang ang ating pamamaraan.

 Ang Salah ay mayroong porma at spirit. Ang porma nito ay ang pagdarasal ng katawan,
ang sa spirit naman ay ang pagsamba ng puso. Ang puso at kaluluwa ng sinumang
nagsasagawa nito ay magkakaroon ng dibinong liwanag. Ito ang bagay na nag-uugnay sa pagitan ng alipin at ng kanyang Tagapaglikha. Ang pagdarasal ay ang pinakamalaking tanda ng paniniwala, ang pinakamalahagang gawain ng pagsamba, at ang pinakasiguradong pamamaraan ng pagpapasalamat sa Allah sa lahat ng mga biyayang ipinagkakaloob Niya sa Kanyang mga nilikha. Ang hindi pagsasagawa ng Salah ay ang paglayo sa awa ng Allah. Nangunguhulugan ito ng pagkawala sa taong ito ng Kanyang Awa, mga biyaya at kalinga. Ito ay ang pagtanggi sa kabutihan at basbas ng Tagapaglikha.

Ang tunay na pagdarasal (taimtim at ayon sa isinagawa ng huling propeta, Muhammad [saws]) ay gamot sa sakit na sumisira sa puso at nagpapasama sa konsensiya at kaluluwa ng isang tao. Ang salah ay nagsisilbing liwanag na nagpapawi ng kasamaan ng kadiliman at
ng kasalanan.

Sinabi ni Abu Hurayrah (kalugdan nawa siya ng Allah) na sinabi ng Propeta Muhammad (saws): “Tingnan ninyo, kung kayo ay mayroong ilog sa tabi ng pintuan ng inyong bahay at

naliligo kayo roon limang (5) beses isang araw, sa palagay mo ba ay mayroon pa
ring duming matitira sa inyo? Sinabi nila (ng mga kasamahan ng Propeta Wala nang duming matitira”. At pagkatapos ay sinabi niya: “Katulad din (Bukhari at Muslim)
ito ng pagdarasal ng limang beses isang araw kung saan nililinis ng Allah ang
ating mga kasalanan.”

Sinabi ni Abdullah ibn Umar (kalugdan nawa sila ng Allah) na sinabi ng Propeta Muhammad (saws): “Sinuman ang sadyang kinalimutan at kinaligtaan ang Salah ng Asr, ito ay parang naiwala o nawasak niya ang kanyang pamilya at ang kanyang ari-arian”. (Bukhari,
Vol. 1, Hadith no. 527) Iwasan ang pagmamadali sa pagsasagawa ng Salah, dahil
ito ay hindi katanggap-tanggap sa harapan ng Allah.  

Ang lugar o ang direksiyon na ating hinaharapan ay direksiyon lamang ng dasalan, ang Ka’aba, kailanman ay hindi natin sinasamba kundi ito ay direksiyon lamang natin sa ating pagdarasal, ito ay sagisag ng pagkakaisa nating mga Muslim.

Yan lamang po bilang PAALAALA para rin po sa ating IKABUBUTI PAGHARAP NATIN SA NAG-IISANG TUNAY NA DIYOS ANG ALLAH (swt), inshaALLAH! ”As-salamo alaykom Wa Rahmatulahi Wa Barakatuh”

Who is Allah ?

Who is Allah ?

Some of the biggest misconceptions that many non-Muslims have about Islam have to do with the word “Allah.”  For various reasons, many people have come to believe that Muslims worship a different God than Christians and Jews.  This is totally false, since “Allah” is simply the Arabic word for “God” - and there is only One God.  Let there be no doubt - Muslims worship the God of Noah, Abraham, Moses, David and Jesus - peace be upon them all.  However, it is certainly true that Jews, Christians and Muslims all have different concepts of Almighty God.  For example, Muslims - like Jews - reject the Christian beliefs of the Trinity and the Divine Incarnation.  This, however, does not mean that each of these three religions worships a different God - because, as we have already said, there is only One True God.  Judaism, Christianity and Islam all claim to be “Abrahamic Faiths”, and all of them are also classified as “monotheistic.”  However, Islam teaches that other religions have, in one way or another, distorted and nullified a pure and proper belief in Almighty God by neglecting His true teachings and mixing them with man-made ideas.
First of all, it is important to note that “Allah” is the same word that Arabic-speaking Christians and Jews use for God.  If you pick up an Arabic Bible, you will see the word “Allah” being used where “God” is used in English.  This is because “Allah” is a word in the Arabic language equivalent to the English word “God” with a capital “G”.  Additionally, the word “Allah” cannot be made plural, a fact which goes hand-in-hand with the Islamic concept of God.
It is interesting to note that the Aramaic word “El”, which is the word for God in the language that Jesus spoke, is certainly more similar in sound to the word “Allah” than the English word “God.”  This also holds true for the various Hebrew words for God, which are “El” and “Elah”, and the plural or glorified form “Elohim.”  The reason for these similarities is that Aramaic, Hebrew and Arabic are all Semitic languages with common origins.  It should also be noted that in translating the Bible into English, the Hebrew word “El” is translated variously as “God”, “god” and “angel”!  This imprecise language allows different translators, based on their preconceived notions, to translate the word to fit their own views.  The Arabic word “Allah” presents no such difficulty or ambiguity, since it is only used for Almighty God alone.  Additionally, in English, the only difference between “god”, meaning a false god, and “God”, meaning the One True God, is the capital “G”.  Due to the above mentioned facts, a more accurate translation of the word “Allah” into English might be “The One -and-Only God” or “The One True God.”
More importantly, it should also be noted that the Arabic word “Allah” contains a deep religious message due to its root meaning and origin.  This is because it stems from the Arabic verb ta’allaha (or alaha), which means “to be worshipped.”  Thus in Arabic, the word “Allah” means “The One who deserves all worship.”  This, in a nutshell, is the Pure Monotheistic message of Islam.
Suffice it to say that just because someone claims to be a “monotheistic” Jew, Christian or Muslim, that does not keep them from falling into corrupt beliefs and idolatrous practices.  Many people, including some Muslims, claim belief in “One God” even though they’ve fallen into acts of idolatry.  Certainly, many Protestants accuse Roman Catholics of idolatrous practices in regards to the saints and the Virgin Mary.  Likewise, the Greek Orthodox Church is considered “idolatrous” by many other Christians because in much of their worship they use icons.  However, if you ask a Roman Catholic or a Greek Orthodox person if God is “One”, they will invariably answer: “Yes!.”  This claim, however, does not stop them from being “creature worshipping” idolaters.  The same goes for Hindus, who just consider their gods to be “manifestations” or “incarnations” of the One Supreme God.
Before concluding… there are some people out there, who are obviously not on the side of truth, that want to get people to believe that “Allah” is just some Arabian “god”[1], and that Islam is completely “other” - meaning that it has no common roots with the other Abrahamic religions (i.e. Christianity and Judaism).  To say that Muslims worship a different “God” because they say “Allah” is just as illogical as saying that French people worship another God because they use the word “Dieu”, that Spanish-speaking people worship a different God because they say “Dios” or that the Hebrews worshipped a different God because they sometimes call Him “Yahweh.”  Certainly, reasoning like this is quite ridiculous!  It should also be mentioned, that claiming that any one language uses the only the correct word for God is tantamount to denying the universality of God’s message to mankind, which was to all nations, tribes and people through various prophets who spoke different languages.
We would like to ask our readers about the motives of these people?  The reason is that the Ultimate Truth of Islam stands on solid ground and its unshakeable belief in the Unity of God is above reproach.  Due to this, Christians can’t criticize its doctrines directly, but instead fabricate things about Islam that aren’t true so that people lose the desire to learn more.  If Islam were presented in the proper way to the world, it surely might make many people reconsider and re-evaluate their own beliefs.  It is quite likely that when they find out that there is a universal religion in the world that teaches people to worship and love God, while also practicing Pure Monotheism, would at least feel that they should re-examine the basis for their own beliefs and doctrines.
