Understanding Islam Part 6 Beliefs And Rituals

Sahih Bukhari Volume 1, Book 2, Number 47: One day while the Prophet was sitting in the company of some people,

(The angel) Gabriel came and asked, “ What is faith ? " Allah's Apostle replied, 'Faith is to believe

1) in Allah,

2) His angels,

3) (the) meeting with Him,

4) His Apostles,

5) and to believe in Resurrection."

Then he further asked, “ What is Islam ? " Allah's Apostle replied,

1) "To worship Allah Alone and none else,

2) to offer prayers perfectly

3) to pay the compulsory charity (Zakat)

4) and to observe fasts during the month of Ramadan.“

Six Articles of Belief• 1. Belief in one God (Allah)• 2. Belief in all the prophets and messengers sent by God.

– 124,000 prophets, of whom 313 are also messengers– 25 of these messengers are very important (mentioned in the Quran)

• 3. Belief in the books sent by God:– The Suhuf scripts of Abraham– The Tawrat sent to Moses--Torah – The Zabur sent to David--Psalms– The Injil sent to Jesus--Gospels – The Qur'an sent to Muhammad--Koran

• 4. Belief in the Angels of whom four are held in high esteem and are named in the Quran and the Hadith (additional book about Mohammed)– Like Gabriel who spoke with Mohammed

• 5. Belief in the Day of Judgment when you die and in the life after death– Heaven and hell

• 6. Belief in Fate (predestination) Muslims believe in divine destiny – God wrote down all that has happened and will happen

Sahih Bukhari,

Volume 1, Book 2, Number 7: Narrated Ibn 'Umar:

3. Zakaah To pay Zakat (i.e. obligatory charity) .

4. Hajj To perform Hajj. (i.e. Pilgrimage to Mecca)

Qur'an 005.069 “Surely, those who believe and those who are Jews, Sabians and Christians, whosoever believed in Allah and the Last Day, and worked good, on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve,”

The Noble Qur’an says: “This verse should not be misinterpreted. It was abrogated by 3:85 ( “If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Surrender), never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter He will be in the ranks of those who are losers.”). After the coming of Prophet Muhammad no other religion except Islam will be accepted from anyone.”

Abrogated - cancelled by a later revelation.

Note: the later revelation is in a verse that comes numerically before this earlier verse.

The surahs of Qur’an are ordered by length and usage, not by chronology.

The Nobel Qur’an translation lists some of the verses considered to be abrogated.

If you believe in teachings of ____________ or the books of __________.

Islam accepts that God has spoken to many people through many prophets.

And that all have proclaimed that man must submit to the will of God. (Islam)

(Just what rituals the God of the universe wants you to submit to in Islam, we will deal with in the Pillars of Faith section.)

They say God, (your God), has spoken last through the prophet Mohammed.

His message is to all mankind and has been preserved in the Qur’an.

What this means is: The books or teaching you hold sacred have been corrupted. Mohammed and the Qur’an have the only true uncorrupted message left.

2. Belief in all the prophets and messengers sent by God. 124,000 prophets, of whom 313 are also messengers25 of these messengers are very important (mentioned in the Quran)

And Lot went up out of Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he feared to dwell in Zoar: and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters.

And the firstborn said unto the younger, Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in unto us after the manner of all the earth:

Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.

And they made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.

The Holy Bible Luke 17:28 - 33 Jesus refers to Lot …

28 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;

29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.

30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

31 In that day, he which shall be upon the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not come down to take it away: and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back. …

The Holy Bible 2nd Peter 2: 6 - 9 Jesus’ desciples refer to Lot …

6 And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an example unto those that after should live ungodly;

7 And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked:

8 (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds);

9 The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:

Surah 11 HUD

77. And when Our Messengers came to Lout (Lot), he was grieved on their account and felt himself straitened for them (lest the town people should approach them to. commit sodomy with them) He said: "This is a distressful day.“

78. And his people came rushing towards him, and since aforetime they used to commit crimes (sodomy, etc.), he said: "O my people! Here are my daughters (i.e. the daughters of my nation), they are purer for you (if you marry them lawfully). So fear Allâh and degrade me not as regards my guests! Is there not among you a single right-minded man?"

79. They said: "Surely you know that we have neither any desire nor in need of your daughters, and indeed you know well what we want!"

80. He said: "Would that I had strength (men) to overpower you, or that I could betake myself to some powerful support (to resist you)."

81. They (The Messengers) said: "O Lout (Lot)! Verily, we are the Messengers from your Lord! They shall not reach you! So travel with your family in a part of the night, and let not any of you look back, but your wife (will remain behind), verily, the punishment which will afflict them, will afflict her. Indeed, morning is their appointed time. Is not the morning near?"

Islam can’t accept all prophets

Any prophet that comes after Mohammed must be a false prophet.

Muslim believe Joseph Smith was a false prophet even though :

He spoke with an angel, (also God the Father and Jesus.)

Was told that Christians had corrupted the religion of Christ.

Was given golden plates which, with the angels help, he translated into new Holy Book.

The new book uses Bible names and stories plus new names and stories of tribes in Americas.

Joseph Smth was the sole source of the new divine revelation. He spoke for God.

The Angel Moroni shows Joseph Smith the Golden plates which will be translated into the Book of Mormon.

Islam can’t accept all prophets

Any prophet that comes after Mohammed must be a false prophet.

Muslim believe Joseph Smith was a false prophet even though :

Mormons and Muslims both believe Jesus had a wife, even multiple wives.

Joseph Smith was given permission to have multiple wives.

Later, Mormons were permitted to plunder gentiles, (non-Mormons)

Later, leaders used assassins (destroying angles) to silence mockers.

INTOLERANCE?:

Muslims believe Joseph Smith was a false prophet.

Mormons believe Mohammed was a false prophet.

And who believe in that which has been revealed to you (Muhammed) and that which was revealed before you and they are sure of the hereafter.

(Quran 2.4)

The Messenger (Muhammad ) believes in what has been sent down to him from his Lord, and (so do) the believers.

Each one believes in Allah, His Angels, His Books, and His Messengers.

They say, "We make no distinction between one another of His Messengers" - and they say, "We hear, and we obey. (Quran 2.285)

Status of Books besides the Quran

Holy Bible Psalm 12: 6-7 The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation forever.

Holy Bible Luke 21:33 [Jesus said,] Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. (repeated in Matthew & Mark)

What about the Bible?

The Taurat given to Moses, as mentioned in the Quran, is NOT synonymous with the first five books of the Old Testament or the Old Testament.

The Injeel given to Jesus is NOT synonymous with the New Testament or the four Gospels.

The word ‘Bible’ and the word ‘Gospels’ never occur in the Quran.

The Injeel, Taurat, Zabur etc. given to the Prophets Jesus, Moses and David were the pure words of Allah.

The Bible (Old Testament and New Testaments) contains the words of historians, the words of Prophets, the words of eyewitnesses and may contain words of God.

So how many actual Holy Books do Muslims believe in ?

What are Angels in Islam?

What are the Jinns?

What are the Jinns?

The Nobel Qur’an 51: 56 And I (Allâh) created not the jinns and humans except they should worship Me (Alone).

The Nobel Qur’an 11: 119 Except him on whom your Lord has bestowed His Mercy (the follower of truth - Islâmic Monotheism) and for that did He create them. And the Word of your Lord has been fulfilled (i.e. His Saying): "Surely, I shall fill Hell with jinns and men all together.”

The Nobel Qur’an 7: 179 And surely, We have created many of the jinns and mankind for Hell. …

What are the Jinns?

The Nobel Qur’an 46: 29 And (remember) when We sent towards you (Muhammad) Nafran (three to ten persons) of the jinns, (quietly) listening to the Qur'ân, when they stood in the presence thereof, they said: "Listen in silence!" And when it was finished, they returned to their people, as warners.

They said: "O our people! Verily! We have heard a Book (this Qur'ân) sent down after Mûsa (Moses), confirming what came before it, it guides to the truth and to a Straight Path (i.e. Islâm).

What are the Jinns?

Sahih Bukhari V4: B55: N634: The Prophet said, "A strong demon from the Jinns came to me yesterday suddenly, so as to spoil my prayer, but Allah enabled me to overpower him, and so I caught him and intended to tie him to one of the pillars of the Mosque so that all of you might see him, but I remembered the invocation of my brother Solomon: 'And grant me a kingdom such as shall not belong to any other after me.' (Surah 38: 35) so I let him go cursed.”

What are the Jinns?

Sahih Bukhari V5: B:58 N:200 …When he finished, I walked with him and asked, "What about the bone and the animal dung?" He [The Prophet] said, "They are of the food of Jinns. The delegate of Jinns of (the city of) Nasibin came to me--and how nice those Jinns were--and asked me for the remains of the human food. I invoked Allah for them that they would never pass by a bone or animal dung but find food on them."

What are the Jinns?

The Nobel Qur’an 55: 56. Wherein both will be those (maidens) restraining their glances upon their husbands, whom no man or jinn yatmithhunna (has opened their hymens with sexual intercourse) before them.

What are the Jinns?

Sahih Bukhari V9: B93: N480: The Prophet used to say, "I seek refuge (with YOU) by Your 'Izzat, None has the right to be worshipped but You Who does not die while the Jinns and the human beings die."

Are Jinns the same as Devils?

The Nobel Qur’an 2: 14 And when they meet those who believe, they say: "We believe," but when they are alone with their Shayâtin (devils - polytheists, hypocrites, etc.), theysay: "Truly, we are with you; verily, we were but mocking."

The Nobel Qur’an 6: 112 And so We have appointed for every Prophet enemies - Shayâtin (devils) among mankind and jinns, inspiring one another with adorned speech as a delusion (or by way of deception).

The Nobel Qur’an 17:27 Verily, spendthrifts are brothers of the Shayatîn (devils), and the Shaitân (the Devil, Satan) is ever ungrateful to his Lord.

Are Jinns the same as Devils?

The Nobel Qur’an 19:83 See you not that We have sent the Shayâtin (devils) against the disbelievers to push them to do evil.

The Nobel Qur’an 7:27 O Children of Adam! Let not Shaitân (Satan) deceive you, as he got your parents [Adam and Hawwa (Eve)] out of Paradise, stripping them of their raiments, to show them their private parts. Verily, he and Qabîluhu (his soldiers from the jinns or his tribe) see you from where you cannot see them. Verily, We made the Shayâtin (devils) Auliyâ' (protectors and helpers) for those who believe not.

Angels are always obedient to Allah

What are Angels in Islam?

Was Satan a fallen angel?

Some prominent Angels in Islam.

Some prominent AngelsSahih Bukhari Volume 2, Book 23, Number 422:

The Prophet said, "When a human being is laid in his grave and his companions return and he even hears their foot steps,

two angels come to him and make him sit and ask him: What did you use to say about this man, Muhammad ?

He will say: I testify that he is Allah's slave and His Apostle.

Then it will be said to him, 'Look at your place in the Hell-Fire. Allah has given you a place in Paradise instead of it.' " …

But a non-believer or a hypocrite will say to the angels, 'I do not know, but I used to say what the people used to say!

It will be said to him, 'Neither did you know nor did you take the guidance (by reciting the Quran).'

Then he will be hit with an iron hammer between his two ears, and he will cry and that cry will be heard by whatever approaches him except human beings and jinns."

Some prominent AngelsTHE HOLY BIBLE does not go into any detail about

angels or devils. It is a book from God to man. Only God gets the glory.

Angels are messengers of God:

OLD TESTAMENT HEBREW: מלאך To despatch as a deputy; a messenger; specifically of God, that is, an angel (also a prophet, priest or teacher): - ambassador, angel, king, messenger.

NEW TESTAMEN GREEK: αγγελος; aggelos, ang'-el-os; to bring tidings; a messenger; especially an “angel”; by implication a pastor: - angel, messenger.

Only three angels are mentioned by name:

Michael

Daniel 12:1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people:…

Jude 1:9 Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil…

GabrielLuke 1:19 And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand

in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to show thee these glad tidings.…

Lucifer (who is also called Satan)

The Holy Bible

Some prominent AngelsSome Angels followed Satan in Rebellion:

Matthew 25:41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

2 Peter 2:4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment;

Jude 1:6 And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.

Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

The Holy Bible

Some prominent AngelsDevils are Unclean Spirits they deceive men into

worshiping them as gods, and they possess men.

Colossians 2:18 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshiping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,

1 Corinthians 10:20 But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.

Deuteronomy 32:16 They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations provoked they him to anger. They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.

Matthew 4:23 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people. And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatic, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.

The Holy Bible













The Nobel Qur’an Surah 50 [Qad]16 And indeed We have created man, and We know what his ownself whispers to him. And We are nearer to him than his jugular vein (by Our Knowledge).

17 (Remember!) that the two receivers (recording angels) receive (each human being after he or she has attained the age of puberty), one sitting on the right and one on the left (to note his or her actions) .

18 Not a word does he (or she) utter, but there is a watcher by him ready (to record it). …

20 And the Trumpet will be blown, that will be the Day whereof warning (had been given) (i.e. the Day of Resurrection).

21 And every person will come forth along with an (angel) to drive (him), and an (angel) to bear witness. …

23 And his companion (angel) will say: "Here is (this Record) ready with me!"

24 (And it will be said): "Both of you throw (Order from Allâh to the two angels) into Hell, every stubborn disbeliever (in the Oneness of Allâh, in His Messengers, etc.).

25 "Hinderer of good, transgressor, doubter,

26 "Who set up another ilâh (god) with Allâh, then (both of you) cast him in the severe torment.”

Sahih Bukhari V8: B76: N577:

He said, "So you will see Him (your Lord) on the Day of Resurrection similarly

Allah will gather all the people and say, 'Whoever used to worship anything should follow that thing.‘

So, he who used to worship the sun, will follow it, and he who used to worship the moon will follow it, and he who used to worship false deities will follow them; and then only this nation (i.e., Muslims) will remain, including their hypocrites. …

Sahih Bukhari V8: B76: N577: … continued

Then Allah will come to then in a shape they know and will say, "I am your Lord.'

They will say, '(No doubt) You are our Lord,' and they will follow Him.

Then a bridge will be laid over the (Hell) Fire."

Allah's Apostle added, "I will be the first to cross it.

And the invocation of the Apostles on that Day, will be 'Allahukka Sallim, Sallim (O Allah, save us, save us!),' and over that bridge there will be hooks Similar to the thorns of As Sa'dan (a thorny tree). …

"So the hooks over that bridge will be like the thorns of As-Sa-dan except that their greatness in size is only known to Allah.

These hooks will snatch the people according to their deeds.

Some people will be ruined because of their evil deeds, and some will be cut into pieces and fall down in Hell, but will be saved afterwards, when Allah has finished the judgments among His slaves, and intends to take out of the Fire whoever He wishes to take out from among those who used to testify that none had the right to be worshipped but Allah.

We will order the angels to take them out and the angels will know them by the mark of the traces of prostration (on their foreheads) for Allah banned the fire to consume the traces of prostration on the body of Adam's son

Sahih Bukhari V8: B76: N577: … continued

So they will take them out, and by then they would have burnt (as coal), and then water, called Maul Hayat (water of life) will be poured on them, and they will spring out like a seed springs out on the bank of a rainwater stream,

and there will remain one man who will be facing the (Hell) Fire and will say, 'O Lord! It's (Hell's) vapor has Poisoned and smoked me and its flame has burnt me; please turn my face away from the Fire.‘

He will keep on invoking Allah till Allah says, 'Perhaps, if I give you what you want), you will ask for another thing?'

The man will say, 'No, by Your Power, I will not ask You for anything else.'

Then Allah will turn his face away from the Fire.

The man will say after that, 'O Lord, bring me near the gate of Paradise.'

Allah will say (to him), 'Didn't you promise not to ask for anything else?

Woe to you, O son of Adam ! How treacherous you are!'

The man will keep on invoking Allah till Allah will say, 'But if I give you that, you may ask me for something else.'

The man will say, 'No, by Your Power. I will not ask for anything else.' He will give Allah his covenant and promise not to ask for anything else after that.

So Allah will bring him near to the gate of Paradise, and when he sees what is in it, he will remain silent as long as Allah will,

and then he will say, 'O Lord! Let me enter Paradise.'

Allah will say, 'Didn't you promise that you would not ask Me for anything other than that? Woe to you, O son of Adam ! How treacherous you are!'

On that, the man will say, 'O Lord! Do not make me the most wretched of Your creation,' and will keep on invoking Allah till Allah will smile

and when Allah will smile because of him, then He will allow him to enter Paradise,

and when he will enter Paradise, he will be addressed, 'Wish from so-and-so.‘

He will wish till all his wishes will be fulfilled,

then Allah will say, All this (i.e. what you have wished for) and as much again therewith are for you.' "

…That man will be the last of the people of Paradise to enter (Paradise).

Surah 73 THE ENWRAPPED

11. And leave Me Alone to deal with the beliers (those who deny My Verses, etc.), and those who are in possession of good things of life. And give them respite for a little while.

12. Verily, with Us are fetters (to bind them), and a raging Fire.

13. And a food that chokes, and a painful torment.

52."You verily will eat of the trees of Zaqqûm (a thorn tree).

53."Then you will fill your bellies therewith,

54."And drink boiling water on top of it,

55."So you will drink (that) like thirsty camels!“

56.That will be their entertainment on the Day of Recompense!

Surah 56 - The Inevitable

41.And those on the Left Hand Who will be those on the Left Hand?

42.In fierce hot wind and boiling water,

43.And shadow of black smoke,

44.(That shadow) neither cool, nor (even) good, …

Sirat Rasoul Allah: 156 Then I saw women hanging by their breasts and asked, "Who are these?"Gabriel replied, "They are women who attribute to their husbands children they didnot father.”

Surah 69 THE REALITY30 (It will be said): "Seize him and fetter him,31 Then throw him in the blazing Fire.32"Then fasten him with a chain whereof the length is seventy cubits!"33 Verily, He used not to believe in Allâh, the Most Great,34 And urged not on the feeding of AlMiskîn (the poor),35 So no friend has he here this Day,36 Nor any food except filth from the washing of wounds,37 None will eat except the Khâti'ûn (sinners, disbelievers, polytheists, etc.).

The Holy Bible

Mark 13:19 For in those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be.

And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect's sake, whom he hath chosen, he hath shortened the days.

And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ; or, lo, he is there; believe him not:

The Holy Bible

For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall show signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.

But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.

But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light,

And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken.

And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.

And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven.

The Holy Bible

1Thessalonians 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

Revelation 20:5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.

7 And when the thousand years are expired, …

10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night forever and ever.

11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.

12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. …

15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

The Holy Bible

Rev 21:1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.

2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.

4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.

6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.

7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.

Tabari I:198 “I heard Muhammad say: ‘The first thing created by Allah was the Pen. And Allah said to it: “Write!” It proceeded at that very hour to write whatever is going to be.’”

Bukhari:V4B55N550 “The Prophet said, ‘Allah has appointed an angel in the womb, and the angel says, “Lord, a drop of semen discharge. Lord, a clot, Lord, a piece of flesh.” And then, if Allah wishes to complete the child’s creation, the angel will say. “Lord, male or a female? Lord, wretched or blessed in religion? What will his livelihood be? What will his age be?” The angel writes all this while the child is in the womb of its mother.’”

Bukhari: Volume 4, Book 55, Number 549: Narrated Abdullah: Allah's Apostle, the true and truly inspired said, “…

So a man may do deeds characteristic of the people of the (Hell) Fire, so much so that there is only the distance of a cubit between him and it, and then what has been written (by the angel) surpasses, and so he starts doing deeds characteristic of the people of Paradise and enters Paradise.

Similarly, a person may do deeds characteristic of the people of Paradise, so much so that there is only the distance of a cubit between him and it, and then what has been written (by the angel) surpasses, and he starts doing deeds of the people of the (Hell) Fire and enters the (Hell) Fire."

Tabari I:306 “The Messenger said,

“Allah created Adam and then rubbed Adam’s back with his right hand and brought forth his progeny.

Then He said, ‘I have created these as the inhabitants of Paradise.’

Then he rubbed his back with His left hand and said, ‘I have created those for the Fire, and they will act as the inhabitants of the Fire.’ …

‘When Allah creates a human being for Paradise, He employs him to act as the inhabitants of Paradise, and he will enter Paradise.

And when Allah creates a human being for the Fire, He will employ him to act as the inhabitants of the Fire, and will thus make him enter the Fire.’”

Bukhari V8, B76, N536: The Prophet said, "The first man to be called on the Day of Resurrection will be Adam who will be shown his offspring, and it will be said to them, 'This is your father, Adam.'

Then Allah will say (to Adam), 'Take out of your offspring, the people of Hell.'

Adam will say, 'O Lord, how many should I take out?' Allah will say, 'Take out ninety-nine out of every hundred." They (the Prophet's companions) said, "O Allah's Apostle! If

ninety-nine out of every one hundred of us are taken away, what will remain out of us?"

He said, "My followers in comparison to the other nations are like a white hair on a black ox."

Qur’an (Ahmed Ali ) Surah 56:1. In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful. WHEN WHAT IS to happen comes to pass --2. Which is bound to happen undoubtedly --3. Degrading (some) and exalting (others);4. When the earth is shaken up convulsively,5. The mountains bruised and crushed,6. Turned to dust, floating in the air,7. You will become three categories:8. Those of the right hand -- how (happy) will be those of the right hand!9. Then those of the left hand -- how (unhappy) will be those of the left hand!10. Then the foremost, how pre-excellent,

Christian Choice : “Whosoever will Christian Choice : “Whosoever will …”…”

John 3:14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:

John 3:15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Acts 10:38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him. ...

Acts 10:43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.

Christian Choice : “Whosoever will Christian Choice : “Whosoever will …”…”

John 10:7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.

John 10:8 All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.

John 10:9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.

Revelation 3:20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

1 John 2:23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: but he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.

Performing the Salaat (five daily prayers)There are seven conditions for a salaat to be corrected. 1-Niyyat (intention) to perform salaat :

Pass through heart its name, time, qibla (direction of prayer) , and wish to follow the imam .

Such as Say, "I pray two rakat (cycles) Fard (Compulsory), [or say Wajib (Necessary), or say Sunnat (Regular, from Duty), or say Nafil (volintary)] for Allah”

Then Tala (Face towards Kaba).

2-Tahrima (To say the Takbir; “Allah Akbar”)

When beginning salaat, men raise both hands. Tips of thumbs touch earlobes. Palms must be turned towards the Qibla. Saying of Allahu Akbar (Takbir) begins as hands leave ears and finished as they are folded under the navel

3-Qiyam (Standing) 4-Qiraat (Recitation of Quran by mouth gently) 5-Ruku (To bow) 6-Sajda (Prostration) 7-Qa'da-i- Akhira (Last sitting)

4-Qiraat (Recitation of Quran by mouth gently)

5-Ruku (To bow)

6-Sajda (Prostration)

7-Qa'da-i- Akhira (Last sitting)





3-Qiyam (Standing)


When you 'Say' or 'Recite' or 'Read’ the sound must not be loud and at the same time not totally silent. It should be loud enough just for your ears to hear it.

It is necessary to say the Fatiha Sura (Sura 1: THE OPENENING seven verses) at these parts of prayers and to say also a sura or three ayats (verses) at every rak'at (cycle) of sunnats

In every prayer of salaat except Friday prayer and Eid prayer, it is sunnat (right) for the imam that the sura he says in the first rak'at or cycle (after the Fatiha) be twice as long as the one he says in the second rak'at or cycle.

It is makruh to say a sura in the second rak'at (cycle) three ayats (verses) longer than the sura said in the first rak'at (cycles). Surahs and ayats must be recited in the order they are written in the Qur’an.




3-Qiyam (Standing)


5-Ruku (To bow)

After the sura you bend for the ruku saying takbir. Men open their fingers and put them on their knees. They keep their back and head leveled.

The arms and legs must again be straight and then you say, "Subhana Rabbiyel Azeem" at least thrice.







3-Qiyam (Standing)


5-Ruku (To bow)


The fingers must be closed (no gap), pointing towards the qibla in line with the ears, and the head must be between hands. It is fard to put the forehead on something clean, It is not permissible to put only the nose on the ground.

You say, 'Subhana Rabbiyal A'la' at least thrice. It is fard to put two feet or at least one finger of any foot on the ground.

If both the feet are not placed on ground, salaat will be annulled and not be accepted. It is sunnat to bend the toes and turn them towards the qibla. Men must keep their arms and thighs away from their abdomen.It is Makruh to perform salaat with a bare head not to cover one's head means to disobey the ayat.




3-Qiyam (Standing)


5-Ruku (To bow)



It is fard to sit as long as it takes to say the Athiyyat:

“Atthayyato Lillahe Wassalawato Wat Tayyebato Assalamu Alaika Ayyohan Nabiyo Wa Rehmatullahe Wa Barakatoh Assalamu Alaina Wa Ala Ibadillahis Sualaiheen Ashadu An La ilaah illal Laho Wa Ashadu Anna Mohammadan Abdohoo Wa Rasooloohoo"

When sitting, and men put their left foot flat on the ground with it toes pointing towards the right. They sit on this foot. The right foot should be upright, with the toes touching the grounds, bent and pointing towards the qibla.




3-Qiyam (Standing)


5-Ruku (To bow)



KHUROOJ BI SUN'EEHI:

To signify the completion of prayer by word or action. It means to finish out prayer by saying or doing something.

Salaat is completed by saying, "Assalamo Alaikum Wa Rehmatullah" First by moving head towards right and saying it, then towards left and saying it.





3-Qiyam (Standing)


5-Ruku (To bow)



PRAYER AFTER THE SALAAT:

It is stated in a hadith, 'If a person says,

"Astaghfirullah Al'azim-il-llazi La ilaha illa Huw-al-hayy-ul-qayyuma Wa Atubu ilayh", after every prayer of salaat, all his sins will be forgiven.’

The Imam and the followers raise their hands as high as their chest and pray (Dua) for themselves and for all muslims.

Ahadith declares, 'Prayers (Dua) sent after the five daily fard will be accepted', But the prayers (Dua) must be done with a vigilant heart . Fingers are turned towards the qibla. Arms are not opened apart in the right-left direction. They are close each other, forward. (v) After making your Prayers (Dua), it is sunnat to rub the hands gently on the face.


If Praying means to ask for something, or just to talk to God.

When do you talk to God?In Islam the word translated “prayer” should be translated

“recite.”

pray : verb : to make a request to (someone) in an earnest or urgent manner < I pray you: tell me where they went >— see BEGtransitive verb 1 : entreat, implore —often used as a function word in introducing a question, request, or plea.2 : to get or bring by praying Intransitive verb 1 : to make a request in a humble manner 2 : to address God or a god with adoration, confession, supplication, or thanksgiving

The Holy Bible

Matthew 6:5 -15 Jesus said, …

And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.

8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.

9 After this manner therefore pray ye:

The Holy Bible

Matthew 6:5 -15 Jesus said, …

9 After this manner therefore pray ye:

Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.

10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.

11 Give us this day our daily bread.

12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.

13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:

15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

The Holy Bible

Matthew 7: 7 -12 Jesus said, …

7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:

8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

9 Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?

10 Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?

11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?

12 Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.

Fasting – In the Bible ...Jonah 3:4 And Jonah began to enter into the city a day's journey, and he

cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown.

5So the people of Nineveh believed God, and proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least of them.

6 For word came unto the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, and he laid his robe from him, and covered him with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.

7And he caused it to be proclaimed and published through Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles, saying, Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste any thing: let them not feed, nor drink water:

8 But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and cry mightily unto God: yea, let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the violence that is in their hands.

9Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not?

9 And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not.

Fasting – In the Bible ...The Jews would fast before every feast, but did not humble their heart …

Isaiah 58:6 Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?

Isaiah 58:7 Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh?

Jesus said not to fast for public recognition …

Matthew 6:16 Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

Matthew 6:17 But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face;

Matthew 6:18 That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly

Jehad

The Nobel Qur’an Surha 2 Verse 216

Jihâd (holy fighting in Allâh's Cause) is ordained for you (Muslims) though you dislike it, and it may be that you dislike a thing which is good for you and that you like a thing which is bad for you. Allâh knows but you do not know.

The Nobel Qur’an Surha 9 Verse 38

O you who believe!

What is the matter with you, that when you are asked to march forth in the Cause of Allâh (i.e. Jihâd) you cling heavily to the earth?

Are you pleased with the life of this world rather than the Hereafter?

But little is the enjoyment of the life of this world as compared with the Hereafter.

Jehad

Sahih Bukhari V1, B2, N25:

Allah's Apostle was asked, "What is the best deed?"

He replied, "To believe in Allah and His Apostle (Muhammad).

The questioner then asked, "What is the next (in goodness)?

He replied, "To participate in Jihad (religious fighting) in Allah's Cause."

The questioner again asked, "What is the next (in goodness)?"

He replied, "To perform Hajj ‘Mubrur

Hajj (Pilgrim age to Mecca)

'Mubrur, (which is accepted by Allah and is performed with the intention of seeking Allah's pleasure only and not to show off and without committing a sin and in accordance with the traditions of the Prophet)."

Jehad


A man came to Allah's Apostle and said, "Instruct me as to such a deed as equals Jihad (in reward)."

He replied, "I do not find such a deed."

Then he added, "Can you, while the Muslim fighter is in the battle-field, enter your mosque to perform prayers without cease and fast and never break your fast?"

The man said, "But who can do that?“


Allah's Apostle said, "Allah guarantees to the person who carries out Jihad for His Cause and nothing compelled him to go out but the Jihad in His Cause, and belief in His Words, that He will either admit him into Paradise or return him with his reward or the booty he has earned to his residence from where he went out."

Sahih Muslim Book 19 The Book of Jihad and Expedition (Kitab Al-Jihad wa'l-Siyar): Number 4294

…when the Messenger of Allah appointed anyone as leader of an army or detachment he would especially exhort him to fear Allah and to be good to the Muslims who were with him. He would say:

Fight in the name of Allah and in the way of Allah.

Fight against those who disbelieve in Allah.

Make a holy war,

do not embezzle the spoils;

do not break your pledge; and

do not mutilate (the dead) bodies;

do not kill the children.

Sahih Muslim Book 19: Number 4294 Continued …

When you meet your enemies who are polytheists, invite them to three courses of action. …

1.Invite them to (accept) Islam; if they respond to you, accept it from them and desist from fighting against them.

a)Then invite them to migrate from their lands to the land of Muhairs and inform them that, if they do so, they shall have all the privileges and obligations of the Muhajirs.

b)If they refuse to migrate, tell them that they will have the status of Bedouin Muilims and will be subjected to the Commands of Allah like other Muslims, but they will not get any share from the spoils of war or Fai' except when they actually fight with the Muslims (against the disbelievers).

2.If they refuse to accept Islam, demand from them the Jizya. If they agree to pay, accept it from them and hold off your hands.

3.If they refuse to pay the tax, seek Allah's help and fight them.

Make Holy War against those who disbelieve in Allah

They must accept Islam

Or Pay Tribute

Or fight you.

Doesn’t Jihad mean “struggle”and include the inner struggle with

oneself and evil (resisting evil).

If so, why are the blind and lame exclude?


… Zaid bin Thabit had told him that Allah's Apostle had dictated to him the Divine Verse:

"Not equal are those believers who sit (at home) and those who strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allah with their wealth and lives.' (Surah 4.95)

…On that Ibn Um Maktum said, "O Allah's Apostle! If I had power, I would surely take part in Jihad."

He was a blind man. So Allah sent down revelation to His Apostle …

"...except those who are disabled (by injury or are blind or lame etc.)”

What about Christian Holy Wars like the Crusades?


The Pope who was once the leader of the church of Rome, he declared himself to be the leader of all churches, he said that he judged all and was judged by none, that he spoke for God, and that to obey him

was required to go to Heaven.He controlled an army, he required tribute, anyone who disagreed with his teachings

was tortured and killed. Kind of like the Mohammed we’ve seen.


I believe God allowed Mohammed and Islam to spread as the mirror image of the Pope and his Church in order to oppose it,

until Christians cried out to God.

Muslims denounce terrorists and radical Islamists as not being true Muslims since they violate the

teachings of the Qur’an.We’ve looked at the Qur’an and the Bible.

We’ve looked at the lives of Jesus and Mohammed. Has the Pope followed the teachings of Jesus?

Is he a true Christian?

What about Islam today?

Christians consider,... Muslims pray five times a day, fast, go to a mosque every Friday. How often do you pray (and fast)? How often do you go to church?Muslims recite their Qur’an, most have it memorized, and all believe what it says. Do you read your Bible? Do you even know what it says? Do you believe it?

The Holy Bible

2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways;

then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
