Do not ruch answer, my dear brother until you review these serious points and balances first because everything has signs. A loving person glorifies his beloved in his heart, do you feel the greatness of Allah (may He be Exalted) in your heart? A loving person is obedient to the one who loves and himself cannot disobey his commands, do you obey Allah and follow His Commands? A loving person always mentions his beloved, do you mention Allah (may He be Exalted) in your heart, with your tongue, and body organs? A loving person loves the speech of his beloved one; [...]

Allah, the Most High said: “And I have recorded the numbers of all things in a Clear Book.” (Surah Yaa Seen, 36: 12) Allah, the Most High, said, “Indeed, it is (all) in a Book.” (Surah al-Hajj, 22: 70) He, the Most High, said regarding the debate between Moses and Pharaoh, “He said, ‘What about the earlier generations?’ Moses said, ‘Knowledge of them is with my Lord, in a Book. My Lord neither errs nor does He forget.’” (Surah Ta- Ha, 20: 51-52) Allah, the Most High, said, “And no female conceives or gives birth but with His Knowledge. And no aged man is [...]

Tawhid is a revolutionary concept and constitutes the essence of the teachings of Islam. It means that there is only one supreme Lord of the universe. He is omnipotent, omnipresent and the sustainer of the world and of mankind. Now can one observe the inexhaustible creativity of nature, its purposefulness, its preservation of that which is morally useful and destruction of that which is socially injurious, and yet fail to draw the conclusion that behind nature there is an all-pervading mind of whose incessant creative activity the processes of nature are but outward manifestations? The stars scattered through infinite space, the vast [...]

O servants of Allah, It is a great obligation which Allah imposed on the nation of the Prophet (peace be upon him) as it is the fort of Islam and its great bond. The flags of Shari`ah are raised in a nation and the rulings of Islam spread by the effort of enjoining good and forbidding evil. O Muslims, By this religious duty Allah protected Muslims against the caprices of Satan and the calls of strayers and Allah humiliated the people of sins and seditions. When this religious duty is applied in a nation or in a community, goodness and reform [...]

Islam provides many benefits for the individual and the society. This chapter mentions some of the benefits gained through Islam for the individual. (1) The Door to Eternal Paradise God has said in the Qur’an: “And give good news (O Muhammad) to those who believe and do good deeds, that they will have gardens (Paradise) in which rivers flow....”  (Qur’an, Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:25) God has also said: “Race one with another for forgiveness from your Lord and for Paradise, whose width is as the width of the heavens and the earth, which has been prepared for those who believe in God [...]

The second part of the Shahadah signifies that Allah has not left man without any guidance for the conduct of his life. He has revealed His guidance through His prophets and Muhammad was the last prophet. To believe in a prophet means to believe in the revelation that he has received, to accept the law that was transmitted to him by Allah and to follow the code of conduct that he was instructed to pass on to humanity. Thus the second basic belief of Islam is to believe in the prophethood of Muhammad, to accept the religion that he presented, and [...]
