muslim sis Posted September 21, 2003 Asalaama Alaykum W.W Brother's And sister's in S O L I'm here to share with you an Article talking about the quraan.. insha allaah .. I hope Y'll Enjoy It. -7- Reasons to Read the Quran (1) Intimate: It dares you to disprove it. How? It says that humans can not write a book like this even if they pooled all their resources together and got help also from the spirits. The Quran said this fourteen hundreds years ago and yet no one has been able to disprove it. Billions of books have been written - but not another one like the Quran. (2) Incorruptible: It is the only religious sacred writing which has been in circulation for such a long time and yet remains as pure as it was in the begining. The Quran was kept intact. Nothing was added to it; nothing was changed in it; and nothing was taken away from it ever since it was completely revealed 1400 years ago. (3) Unsurpassable: The Quran is God's final revelation to humankind. God revealed the Torah to Moses, the Pslams to David, the Gospel to Jesus, and finally the Quran to Muhammad. Peace be upon all of them. No other book will come from God to surpass his final revelation. (4) Indisputable: The Quran withstands the test of time and scrutiny. No one can dispute the truth of this book. It speaks about past history and turns out right. It speaks about the future in prophecies and it turns out right. IT mentions details of physical phenomena which were not known to people at the time; yet later scientific discoveries confirm that the Quran was right all along. Every other book needs to be revised to accord with modern knowledge. The Quran alone is never contracdicted by a modern discovery. (5) Your Roadmap for Life and Afterlife: The Quran is the best guidebook on how to structure your life. No other book presents such a comprehensive system involving all aspects of human life and endeavour. The Quran also points out the way to secure everlasting happiness in the afterlife. It is your roadmap showing how to get to paradise. (6) God's Gift of Guidance: God has not left you alone. You were made for a reason. God tells you why he made you, what he demands from you, and what he has in store for you. If you operate a machine contrary to it's manufacture specification you will ruin that machine. What about you? Do you have an owner's manual for you? The Quran is from your funtion for success lest you fail to function. It is a healing mercy from God. It satisfies the soul, and cleans the heart. It removes doubts and brings peace. (7) Your Calling Card to Communicate with God: Humans are social creatures. We love to communicate with other intelligent life. The Quran tells us how to communicate with the source of all intelligence and the source of all life- the One God. The Quran tells us who God is, by what name we should address God, and the way in which to communicate with God. Are these not seven sufficient reasons for reading the Quran?

Nur Posted September 23, 2003 Khayr You write the Verse : "AND KNOW THAT ALLAH MOVES BACK & FORTH BETWEEN A PERSON & HIS HEART & TRULY TO HIM YOU SHALL BE GATHERED FORTH" SURAH AL-ANFAL, V. 24 The above translation is flawed. Clarification: The translation of the word " YAXUULU " IS NOT " MOVES BACK & FORTH BETWEEN " As above The word Yaxuulu is derived from the Origin Masdar "X, W, L" The first is a noun "XAAL" meaning condition, like when we say " kayf Xaalak, or Xaalik " depending on gender we are addressing. A past tense verb that is derived from the the same is " XAALA" like when Noah and his son were separated by the High Ocean Waves. The word xawl is also referred as a period in time for purpose of accunting for Zakat The same masdar " Xiila" is used for solving a problem by means of creative thinking or as we call it Trick, because a trick misleads you from the apparent conclusion. Based on the above, in the context of the revalation, it means Allah SWT intercepts the decision making CONDITION or Xaal, between a person and his heart ( home of intentions) and alters it to a different direction as a punishment. So, the closest word for 'Yaxuulu" is to separate two entities in order to cut communication links, just like how armies jam each others communications during a battle. The Moral of the verse is, that if we do not respond to Allah when we are asked to, and instead put it off for later time, we are risking that we will miss the opportunity of responding to Allah altogether, as Allah may not bless us again with the right intention needed for the action we were asked to do to get the reward that goes with it.
