Salaam alaikum dear fellows!

Although, I used many forums but don't know why I'm hesitating to post something here. Yet I try to post coz my words are not supporting me, so plz ignore deficiency.

I wish to start a thread for putting all orders by Holy Quran in seriese. If anyone want to discuss, even non muslim have open choice to ask whatever...WHATEVER you want to ask I will try to satisfy your questions inshallah with proper reasonings.

I feel need of this thread when I came across this verse today:

قُلْنَا ٱهْبِطُواْ مِنْهَا جَمِيعاً فَإِمَّا يَأْتِيَنَّكُم مِّنِّي هُدًى فَمَن تَبِعَ هُدَايَ فَلاَ خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلاَ هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ

Translation: We said: "Get ye down all from here; and if, as is sure, there comes to you Guidance from me, whosoever follows My guidance, on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.


Live in peace......
 
ٱلَّذِينَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِٱلْغَيْبِ


"Those Who believe in the unseen"

Explanation by Ibn Abbas: Unseen that means which is hidden from our sight such as Paradise, hell, the Bridge over hell, the Scale, the Resurrection, the Reckoning, etc. It is also said that the unseen is Allah Himself.

We often do not follow Islam in hierarchy. Thats the reason Muslim Ummah is scattered about LAWs in Islam. We first need to entrust in unseen which needs concentration on Allah's creature and nature.

If mind may shake you for why Allah is unseen, think about:

How you feel when someone would love you without seeing you?

I think it feels pleasant, so Allah has created us to love Him even without seeing him.​
 
Namaste Summia

Bless you for the dialogue.

And knowing your country and what I heard as news today and the title of this thread...I assumed that was what it was about.

Some valley in Pakistan has made the Quran law of the land...how do you see that playing out? Or should this be another thread?
 
Bless you too.

And knowing your country and what I heard as news today and the title of this thread...I assumed that was what it was about.

Then it should be posted in political corner.

Politics hardly get to my mind. This thread is simply to understand Islamic source.

how do you see that playing out?

I can’t judge this how! Just have to say that everyone is going to his/her own direction, thinks as they are rightly guided, God knows who is truthful and who is not. It doesn’t mean that Islam has failed to establish followers well, as I heard at other forums about Islam. Today’s Muslim condition is sign of Hour, yet Muhammad pbuh predicted this situation in his sayings:

Near the establishment of the Hour there will be days during which (religious) knowledge will be taken away (vanish) and general ignorance will spread...
(Bukhari)

There will come a time for my people when there will remain nothing of the Qur'an except its outward form and nothing of Islam except its name and they will call themselves by this name even though they are the people furthest from it.
(Agreed upon)


There will come a time upon the Ummat when people will recite the Qur’an, but it will not go further than their throats, (into their hearts).
(Bukhari)


That’s why I built this thread!

Happy birth day to you and Live in peace…..

 
@ SR


Salam and welcome 2 the forums :)

I wish to start a thread for putting all orders by Holy Quran in seriese.
That's quite a tall order sister... I found a website which seems to have all of this covered: http://www.parvez-video.com/quran_laws.asp You might want to ignore the first 4 chapters as they deal with political structures of the state. I have only quickly read over the contents but they seem to cover most areas.


Today’s Muslim condition is sign of Hour, yet Muhammad pbuh predicted this situation in his sayings:
This is just the beginning of the hour. There will come a time when all the practices of the Muslims which are today observed (salat, hajj, fasting) all of these will fade away. Maybe even in our lifetime.
 
There will come a time upon the Ummat when people will recite the Qur’an, but it will not go further than their throats, (into their hearts).

Asalam alekum,

Thank you for the birthday wishes and the answer, I look forward to the remainder of the thread.
 
Thanks for the link, I was unaware about this! Okay, Iit is reasonable for I should not keep this thread to continue for everyone could find a lot here:
http://www.parvez-video.com/quran_laws.asp

May Allah bless you,Ameen!

Thanks for welocmes, nice to hear from you.

You might want to ignore the first 4 chapters as they deal with political structures of the state.

Nay! there is great difference between todays politics and Quran Laws. I would not skip because Quran Laws are clear in it's statments and understandable also; Or I'll say, it is not reasonable to relate this with politics. Islam do favor for Khalafat.

This is just the beginning of the hour. There will come a time when all the practices of the Muslims which are today observed (salat, hajj, fasting) all of these will fade away. Maybe even in our lifetime.

May Allah save us form that age, Ameen!

But don't worry all will be changed with the arrival of Issa A.S. Inshallah! Islam will be alive once again.
 
Asalam alekum,

Yeah, Herez more!


وَيُقِيمُونَ ٱلصَّلٰوةَ

“And establish worship”

Explanation by Ibn Abbas: they perform to completion the five prescribed prayers, including the ablution that precedes them, the bowing and prostrations which are parts of them and also what is obligated in these prayers in terms of appointed timing.

Two duties comes when verses narrates “Qaaim ُقِيم ” which means “Establish”:

1) Offer your prayers properly
2) Convince others to offer prayers around your locality

That comes with true definition of “Establish prayers”.

When God Almighty have angles to worship Him only, angles more than humans on the earth, then why God Almighty need us to pray Him five times a day? That’s sounds like silly question but let me explain this, if it is of your interest:

Allah Almighty is Glorious as it is truth whether we worship Him or not. God’s Glory never comes from how much we worship Him, we do worship for ourselves to remind us about God Almighty as it is been said in first statement:

ٱلَّذِينَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِٱلْغَيْبِ

“Those who believe in the unseen”

So, how could unseen is reminded? If we analyze the entire pattern of how Muslims do pray, we could realize it covers the entire mission statements for which human is been sent here in this world.

Thanks for taking interest in Islam, Live in peace.....
 
Islam do favor for Khalafat.

Does it? I dont remember reading anything about it in the Quran.

But don't worry all will be changed with the arrival of Issa A.S. Inshallah! Islam will be alive once again.

not necessarily... it's possible the return of Isa (PBUH) is based on unreliable ahadith. We have discussed this on this forum before, you are welcome to look through the threads.
 
ٱلَّذِينَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِٱلْغَيْبِ
Explanation by Ibn Abbas: Unseen that means which is hidden from our sight such as Paradise, hell, the Bridge over hell, the Scale, the Resurrection, the Reckoning, etc. It is also said that the unseen is Allah Himself.

Certainly the Unseen is Divinity, ie, God, Allah - I'm curious on the name "Ibn Abbas", as my limited understanding of Arabic is that Ibn means "son" and Abba means "father". So does that mean that Ibn Abbas means "Son of Father" or even "Son of the Father". In which case, is this a real name, or an assumed title? And if the latter, what is being suggested? Especially as "Son of the Father" has strong connotations within Christianity.

Just curious. :)

I want to know about your faith dear fellow. Yes, Islam do favor for Khalafah, not todays politics and I don't think I need any reference form Quran. Muhammad's companions are role model for Muslims and the handled Quran rodianance during their Khalafah.

not necessarily... it's possible the return of Isa (PBUH) is based on unreliable ahadith. We have discussed this on this forum before, you are welcome to look through the threads.

but where? you are requested to give me direct reference, plz!

About Return of Issa A.S. Quran is evident:

There is not one of the People of the Book who will not believe in him ('Isa) before he dies; and on the Day of Rising he will be a witness against them. (Surat an-Nisa’: 159)

He (‘Isa) is a Sign of the Hour. Have no doubt about it. But follow me. This is a straight path. (Surat az-Zukhruf: 61)
 
Certainly the Unseen is Divinity, ie, God, Allah - I'm curious on the name "Ibn Abbas", as my limited understanding of Arabic is that Ibn means "son" and Abba means "father". So does that mean that Ibn Abbas means "Son of Father" or even "Son of the Father". In which case, is this a real name, or an assumed title? And if the latter, what is being suggested? Especially as "Son of the Father" has strong connotations within Christianity.

That's funny interpretation about Ibn Abbas :D actually it is my mistake, I should explain IBn Abbas first. Actually, Christains have drived their trinity in the same way as you defined here :p

So, Ibn Abbas, Abbas is a human name and ibn Abbas means "Son of Abbas". It's Abbas not Abba or Abba's... even :D
 
Salaam sis

Yea but that was a tribal system, and even that didn't last during the generation of the companions. This is why the Khilafat split and there was a civil war, and so many problems. Khilafat is fine if you are ruling over a city-state with a few tribes, but over entire nations, it is practically impossible.

Besides, why would anyone want to be Khalifa? Do you know that being a Khalifa means that the leader is DIRECTLY responsible for the welfare of every single person under his rule? How can one person be directly responsible for a billion Muslims? Those people who want to be Khalifa do not understand how much reponsibility such leadership actually brings. If they did, they would run away from it.



but where? you are requested to give me direct reference, plz!

http://www.interfaith.org/forum/unreliable-ahadith-regarding-the-return-10616.html

The first thread deals with the Quranic aspect of the issue, and the second deals with the ahadith.

First, I want to let you know that you are a fresh breeze here, Summia. You have a bright personality about you that I like. I'd like to formally welcome you to the Interfaith forums.

I'm finding some interesting parallels between the sayings in Islam in comparision with the Christian Scriptures. Hebrews 11:1, for example, says:

"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."

I take this to mean that no one really knows what is beyond the grave. But it is that hope that there is something there, even if we haven't seen it. Our faith in God moves us to believe that His Goodness means that we have more than this life has to offer. Further down in Hebrews 11:6 we read:

"But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him."

What a great statement that is. That we can have an expectation of good things from God if we seek Him out diligently. It is not easy when you haven't seen God or His Paridise. Yet if we stand in the Unseen, we will see it for ourselves spiritually in our lives now.
