    Man enjoys real will. That means he determines his own fate by voluntary actions. http//haqeeqat.org.pk/English%20Tafsir%20e%20Haqeeqat/00.Tabweeb%20Part%202/001.%20Roots%20originating%20in%20Surat%20002/2.260/563.%20AtTair%20Toi%20Ya%20Ra/120px-Cervical_vertebrae_animation_small.gif

    Bismillah ir Rahman ir Rahim So I'm trying to curse as many kafirs as I can get I wonder how come other Muslims don't curse the kafirs? ALLAH curses certain people So I curse them as well yet I never heard a Muslim curse a kafir. As Muslims I think we should curse more kafirs I recall a promise made to prophet Abraham by ALLAH the almighty God of the heavens and earth. He would bless those who bless him and curse those who curse him. Do any Muslims bless prophet Abraham in prayer? Do you ask ALLAH to bless prophet Muhammad as he has blessed prophet Abraham? This is in Quran somecan anyone pull the verses? Also the book of genesis in the bible speaks of the story day by day of how prophet Abraham got this blessing ( the contract with ALLAH) Also curse more kafirs and people who don't follow abrahamic monotheism choosing a religion other than the truth.

    Salamun alikum all, The Quran use the word BILAD in which it does not seems to mean LAND, but something else. This word is mentioned in the Quran as (21267) baladan a city (31967) l-bildi the land (75715) libaladin to a land (7581) wal-baladu And the land (14357) l-balada city (1674) baladin a land (3599) baladin a land (40413) l-bildi the cities (503612) l-bildi the lands (8986) l-bildi the cities (89114) l-bildi the lands (9014) l-baladi city (9024) l-baladi city (9532) l-baladi city (25493) baldatan (to) a land (27917) l-baldati city (341517) baldatun A land (43119) baldatan a land (50115) baldatan (to) a land The Arabic word (bar), which means "land", occurred 12 times in the Quran while the Arabic word (bahr), which means "sea", occurred 39 times in the Quran. Both are mentioned inconjunction with each other. So what does it means when the Quran mentioned BILAD. Take a look at the maps provided by Pazuzu pertaining to the Bless land. Coincidence # 7 Macphela What is even more shocking is that the Torah, in its mention of Abraham?s wife Sarah, talks about a cave by the name of ?Macphelah?, which served as a burial site. Here are the words of Abraham (P) himself, as reported by the Torah That he may give me the cave of Machpelah, which he hath, which is in the end of his field; for as much money as it is worth he shall give it me for a possession of a burying place amongst you (Genesis ? 239) To summarize the story, is appears that Abraham bought a small patch of prairie land and a nearby cave somewhere in the desolate wilderness of Hebran-Hebra, from a man named Ephron son of Sohar. (The Arabic rendering of the name is 3afroun bin Sawhar - I think it?s a no-brainer). And, as was the old Yemeni tradition, buried his wife in the cave, which the Torah calls ?Macphelah?. In his book ?The Bible Came from Arabia?, Kamal Salibi, who visited the region of Hebran in Saudi Arabia, in the early 1980?s, and spoke with the locals there, brings to our attention the following Below is an old map of the region taken from a Saudi gazetteer in 1977. You can see the town of Al-Miqfalah, barely 50 kilometers east of Al-Qunfudha, a once prominent Saudi town on the Red Sea coast, some 300 Km south of Mecca. Not only that, but the region ?coincidently? happens to be mountainous, and full of caves, and the stories of prophets buried there have been local legends for centuries uncounted. http//i1203.photobucket.com/albums/bb386/Gorefiendel/MapY-1.jpg Old map of the Asir region, showing the site of al-Miqfalah (in relation to Makkah) Blue circle Miqfalah Red circle Al-Qunfudha Orange circle Misrama Black square Makkah Of course, no one in the world listens to these legends, as the memories of the people living in Asir and Yemen are viewed as no more than baseless ranting. Instead, the world has gone on imagining Palestine as the theater of events that never happened there - events which archeologists have disproved time and time again. The ruins in the Asir region (which the Zionist Saudis have been hiding from the public media), date back to as early as 3500 BC. The towns in that region (the ?Qaryats?) have maintained their names at least since the 7th Century BC. So you can bet that the name ?Miqfalah? existed since the Babylonian exile era, when the Jewish scribes corrupted the Torah for the first time, distributing "Promised Lands" to their descendants as a revenge on the world for the suffering and destruction that were perpetrated against them by the Assyrians (Remember REAL places as theaters for possibly legendary events). It also shows you how all the descendants of Abraham (P) actually lived in the same region, and that the ridiculous stories that the Muslims believe in, which separate between Abraham?s progeny, placing some in the Levant and others in Arabia are all LIES. The very scarce archeological digs in Yemen, for example, have demonstrated the habit of burial in caves since the most ancient of times. This agrees with the old traditions of that country, as well as their legends (for example, there are folk stories in Yemen, transmitted from generation to generation, telling of the burial of the Prophet Hud in a cave north of Hadramaut. Also, the prophet Shuaib is believed to be buried in a cave located in a mountain that was named after him Jabal al Nabi Shuaib, which happens to be the tallest peak in all of Arabia). You can read about these legends in such books as ?Al Tijan fi Muluk Himyar" (The Crowns of the Kings of Himyar) by Wahb bin Manbah, and ?Akhbar al Yemen? (Tales from Yemen) by Obaid bin Sharia al Jurhumi. The burial of prophets, kings and heroic figures in caves have been a part of Yemeni culture for many generations. Coincidence # 8 Mamre We have seen so far, that Abraham migrated from his original homeland, which was NOWHERE near Iraq, towards a land that Allah described as ?blessed to the worlds?. This blessing existed since the time of Abraham (around 1700 BC), and had nothing to do with Jerusalem (which didn?t even exist back then), nor with Mecca (which also didn?t exist), and certainly had nothing to do with Christianity nor Judaism. It was land full of trees, fruits, flowing mountain streams, and immense resources. By now, you have probably figured out where that mountainous land was. Allah led the Patriarch to the location of the Sacred Valley - The Bayt. (The same valley in which Allah would later address Moses, on the slopes of "al-Tur&quot. And there, very near to that valley, Abraham set up his tents. But what was the original place he settled in called? (According to the Torah). Let?s read Then Abram removed his tent, and came and dwelt in the oaks of Mamre, which is in Hebron, and built there an altar unto the LORD (Genesis ? 131 A bit further down we have So the field of Ephron which in Machpelah, which before Mamre, the field and the cave which in it, and all the trees that in the field, which within all the surrounding borders, were deeded (Genesis - 2317) Mamre, which is in Hebron, and near Macphelah? Has the city of Al-Khaleel in current-day Palestine ever been connected to a place called Mamre? I defy anyone on this planet to bring me proof of this claim. The Palestinians themselves, who lived in that land for generations until the KHAZAR PIRATES came and took it from them, have never heard of the name ?Mamre? in association with the occupied city of Al-Khaleel. Their elders know very well that this mysterious name was introduced by force onto their land. But the Bani Kananah of Arabia knew of such a place. And they sang many legends about it in their poetry, describing it as wilderness place where ancient Arab heroes and warriors would rest in the shade of trees, and where mystics and oracles would commune with the gods. In fact, the Torah relates to us an extraordinary event that took place in that copse of oak trees. Here it is Then the LORD appeared to him by the terebinth trees of Mamre, as he was sitting in the tent door in the heat of the day. 2 So he lifted his eyes and looked, and behold, three men were standing by him; and when he saw he ran from the tent door to meet them, and bowed himself to the ground, 3 and said, "My Lord, if I have now found favor in Your sight, do not pass on by Your servant. 4 "Please let a little water be brought, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree. 5 "And I will bring a morsel of bread, that you may refresh your hearts. After that you may pass by, inasmuch as you have come to your servant." They said, "Do as you have said." 6 So Abraham hurried into the tent to Sarah and said, "Quickly, make ready three measures of fine meal; knead and make cakes." 7 And Abraham ran to the herd, took a tender and good calf, gave to a young man, and he hastened to prepare it. 8 So he took butter and milk and the calf which he had prepared, and set before them; and he stood by them under the tree as they ate. 9 Then they said to him, "Where Sarah your wife?" So he said, "Here, in the tent." 10 And He said, "I will certainly return to you according to the time of life, and behold, Sarah your wife shall have a son." (Sarah was listening in the tent door which behind him.) 11 Now Abraham and Sarah were old, well advanced in age; Sarah had passed the age of childbearing. 12 Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, "After I have grown old, shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?" 13 And the LORD said to Abraham, "Why did Sarah laugh, saying, 'Shall I surely bear since I am old?' 14 "Is anything too hard for the LORD? At the appointed time I will return to you, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son." (Genesis 18 1 - 14) This same story appears in the Quran, albeit in slightly different details. 1- No names of places are mentioned, nor any copse of oak trees. 2- The name of the wife who laughed as she received the tidings is not mentioned. 3- The guests who visited Abraham were very unusual in appearance and behaved very strangely, causing Abraham to have some fear in his heart. 4- The guests did not even touch the food. Here is the uncorrupted version of this story {Has the narrative of the noble guests of Abraham come to you? * When they entered upon him, they said ?Peace!?. He said ?Peace, O people unknown! * Then he went to his family and brought a fat calf. * He offered it to them, he said ?Do you not eat?? * He then became fearful of them. They said ?Do not fear?, and they gave him good news of a knowledgeable son * His wife then approached in amazement. She slapped upon her face, and said ?A barren old woman!?}? Elsewhere in Allah?s book, we read the same story again, and get a new perspective (note how the two perspectives complete each other, forming an independent whole) {And Our messengers came to Abraham with good news, they said "Peace" He said "Peace," and he made no delay in bringing a roasted calf * But when he saw that their hands did not reach towards it, he mistrusted them, and he began to have fear of them. They said "Have no fear, we have been sent to the people of Lot? * And his wife was standing, so she laughed when We gave her the good news of Isaac, and after Isaac, Jacob. * She said "O my! Shall I give birth when I am an old woman, and here is my husband an old man? This is indeed a strange thing!" * They said "Do you wonder at the decree of Allah? The mercy and blessings of Allah are upon you O people of the Sanctuary. He is Praiseworthy, Glorious."? We understand, from the above, that the guests of Abraham were unfamiliar and behaved strangely. The word that Abraham used to describe them was ?munkaroon? (plural of munkar), which means simply that strange / unknown / unfamiliar. Also, not eating the food of the host was considered an insult (and still is), in Arabian culture. We also understand that Lot?s town was nearby, and that the messengers were going there to bring down the wrath of Allah on that place. So, Lot?s town is not far from Hebran - Hebra, which itself is near the Oaks of Mamre (sometimes spelled ?Mamra?), which is also near the Kirjat-Arba (the ?Four Towns?). The region is no more than 300 KM south of Mecca. Please keep this in mind, for later on, when we finally pinpoint where Muhammad (P) was initially located. What do the ancient Arab poets say about Mamre-Mamra? Read this and gawk Yemeni poet A?mr bin Maad Yakreb (more famous by the name Karb al-Zubaidi) wrote He is remembering past events of a great battle that took place between the tribes of Hamadan and Zubaid (the poet?s own tribe), where their foes, the Hamadani warriors, took refuge in a mountainous vale full of trees. And the day of that battle was called ?Yawmu Mamra? (The Day of Mamra). The verse also mentions the very famous Asiri tribe of Mazen (These events took place during the first or second century A.D. at the latest). In fact, the tribe of Bani Mazen in southern Saudi Arabia, were located in and around the city of Abha, and the name is still - until today - very famous there. If you don?t believe me, type in (Bani Mazen) in the search bar, and see what you get DOZENS of links associating this tribe to the city of Abha, which is 2000 Km above sea level (it will only work if you make the search in Arabic ). Where is Abha? Look at the map below, and see how close this town is to the region depicted in the previous map http//i1203.photobucket.com/albums/bb386/Gorefiendel/MapX.jpg Blue circle Al-Qunfudha Red circle Abha Green circle Najran Black circle Makkah Another poet, known simply as "Zhul-Rimma", also mentions the same legendary place - The warrior?s solace of Mamra. Note how often the Yemenis use the pronoun ?Zhu? or "Zhul" in their names. Over 30 Yemeni kings were labeled as ?Zhul - something" ( Zhul? Azhar , Zhu Nawwas , Zhu Raydan, Zhu Jayhan, etc? ). Also, prophet "Zhul? Kifl" mentioned in the Quran was obviously a Yemeni. What about "Pharaoh"? The Quran calls him "Far?oun Zhul? Awtad" , meaning Far?oun of the Tent Pegs (denoting he was no more than a tribal chief). The list goes on and on? Every time you encounter a name that begins with ?Zhul? or ?Zhu?, you can rest assured it?s Yemeni. Here?s what "Zhul? Rimma" says about Mamre-Mamra. If you can read Arabic, you will immediately note how outstanding the description is I just wish you folks could read what I?m reading, because this is absolutely earth-shattering. No words in English can do justice to these timeless verses?poetry that comes from the soul. In the second line, he is describing the desolate grove of Mamre as a location to the south of the resting place of the Heroes of Yemen (The cavern graveyards). In the third line, he describes how difficult and treacherous the mountain paths leading to it can be. Finally, in the fourth line he describes the vestiges of an Ethiopian campaign in the region, and the destruction it left behind. Does this ring a bell? Who was the leader of this Ethiopian excursion against the south of Arabia? (Scratch your heads a little, and you?ll get the answer. This is another major clue as to where Muhammad was located). Here is what a third poet, Kaab bin Zuhair (a pre- Islamic poet) says of this legendary tree grove Again, we have a description of ?Mamra of the Sarat??In the heart of Asir?The greenest, most fertile, and most river-abundant region in all of Arabia, and in the past, the heart of the incense and myrrh trade routes that ran along the slopes of the Sarat Mountains. It is the same region and the same trade routes mentioned in the story of Joseph. And they sat down to eat a meal. Then they lifted their eyes and looked, and there was a company of Ishmaelites, coming from Gilead with their camels, bearing spices, balm, and myrrh, on their way to carry down to Misraim (Genesis 3725) And their father Israel said to them, "If so, then do this Take some of the best fruits of the land in your vessels and carry down a present for the man -- a little balm and a little honey, spices and myrrh, pistachio nuts and almonds (Genesis 4311) If there is any land in ancient history (before Jerusalem...before Mecca...before Christianity and Judaism) that was blessed to the world, that would be it. There is not a single spot on this entire planet where you will find the names Mamre - Hebran - Miqfalah - all together bundled up in the same region, other than Asir. Asir , the theater of the Old Testament, was the cradle of all civilizations, and the land of the prophets. And the Muslims who keep insisting that the Levant was the land of the prophets are deluded to the point of insanity. And the story of Abraham and Sarah, their tribulations and wanderings in the wilderness looking for a place to settle, their digging of the ?Well of Fullness? (Bir? Shabba3a), at the Holy Bayt (the sacred vale where Adam first descended from the earthly paradise high up in the Sarat Mountains) is a 100% ancient Arabic folkloric tale that has been told and retold by the people of that region for over 3000 years. It has nothing to do with Palestine whatsoever. And the Palestinians have been right all along. The city of Al-Khaleel is NOT the Hebron of the Torah. And God only knows who is buried there in that catacomb they call ?The Tomb of Abraham?. http//i1203.photobucket.com/albums/bb386/Gorefiendel/HebronCaveOfMachpelah.jpg The alleged site of Abraham's tomb in "Hebron", Palestine Could all these be coincidences? Study the map carefully and tell me what it means when the Quran tells us that, The Bless Land was in the Bilad where Kinanah is / was, Abraham sojourned to the Bilad where Kinanah is / was, Saba was in the Bilad where Kinanah is / was, Our resurrection will be at the Bilad where Kinanah is / was So could it be that the Bilad is referring to AlMiqfalah 50 km from the present Mecca? Peace.
  • Concept of roots in semitic languages-Arabic

    Classical tradition employs the word Root, but in reality, the concept resembles exactly to a "seed" which is either monocotyledon or dicotyledonous and contains the DNA to sprout and grow into a plant in a specific environment. "Seeds" of Arabic language have distinction of monocotyledon-nominal and dicotyledonous-verbal. Unique assemblage and sequencing of consonants is like a DNA that encodes complete tree of a unique concept-field of understanding which "germinates" only in specific environment. Any comments!

    H
    Salamun alaikum The knowledge of ALLAH the most High, for HE is all-Knowledgeable of all the knowledges of what is existent (Mawjood) and what is non-existent (Maa?doom). Here is an explicit understanding that Umm al Kitab is the the identification of the Prophets AND origin of the Quran, as stated in the Quran 0683 to 89, which shows the names of the 18 Prophets exclusive Prophets Idris and the Last Prophet, who received the Umm al Kitab, the Quran 0689 Those are the ones to whom We gave the Book and Authority and Prophethood?.. The Quran explain 0307. HE is the one who has sent down to you the Book. In it are verses that are authoritative, these are the FOUNDATION OF THE BOOK ; and others, similar ones. So as for those in whose hearts there is an aberration (from the truth) they follow that which it likes, seeking sedition, and seeking its interpretations, but none knows its interpretations except ALLAH. And those who know the secrets says "We believe in it; all of it is from our Lord.'' And none receive admonition except men of knowledge. ALLAH states that in the Book , the verses which are Muhkamat, are the foundations of the Book which are known only to ALLAH. The interpretation of the verses of the Umm al Kitab were also known only to those who knows the secrets of the Book . These people were the Prophets, Messengers and those who were given the knowledge. The Umm al Kitab, interpreted and recorded in the Qur'an as the ?others? that are Mutashabihat . Similar ones in the sense that the contents of the ?others? Quran were similar to a certain extent, meaning, the laws and stories of the Prophets are the same for all the ?other? Quran as per the Umm al Kitab but scenario and structure are different considering the fact that different people with different languages and from countries received the Quran. In order to comprehend and confirm the above verse, we will have to cross reference with a number of Quranic verses to substantiate that the Quran explained in detail the Umm al Kitab. 1037 "This Qur'an is not such as can be produced by other than ALLAH, but a verification which is between, supports it, and EXPLAIN IN DETAIL the Book , wherein there IS no doubt, from the Lord of the worlds." A Book , the verses, whereof are authoritative (in every sphere of knowledge), and THEN EXPLAINED IN DETAIL from One, Who is All-Wise Well-Acquainted. 12111 - "...It (the Qur'an) is not a fabricated story, but a verification, which IS between, supports it and a detailed explanation , a guide and a mercy to the people who believe." Study the above verses carefully especially 0307, 0689 and1101. You will see the words ?Hikmah? and ?Tafseel? used. Verses 0307 and 1101 tells us in verses 0689; 1037 and 12;111, that the Book was the Book that all Prophets received and explained in detail into the Qur'an which is a confirmation of that is between, support it of the Book, that is, the Furqan ? 0544 to 48. It is a witness to the Furqan. The Quran explained in detail the Book . That is, fully and truly explaining and detailing the rules and the lawful and the unlawful. With this complete and more than sufficient explanation into the Grand Qur?an, so as for mankind who will be receiving the Quran for their own salvation. This is why ALLAH says that the authoritative verses are the FOUNDATION of the BOOK?, meaning, authoritative verses which were translated and taught by ALLAH and his legislation - and recorded into what is the Grand Qur'an as the ?others similar ones? / ?Similar Books? which explained in details the fundamental verses of the Umm al Kitab / Kitaban Munira. To support my claims, please check the Quran which explicitly says And indeed, We have bestowed upon you seven of the Second One, and the Grand Qur'an. ALLAH has sent down the Best Statement, a Book, Similar One, Second One. The skins of those who fear their Lord shiver from it. Then their skin and their heart soften to the remembrance of Allah. That is the guidance of Allah. He guides there with whom He wills; and whomever Allah sends astray, for him there is no guide. Allah has sent down the best statement, a Book (this Qur'an), So it is recited into possibly, seven languages in order for mankind to comprehend the divine message! The explicit explanation above, tells us that there were seven of the second one. Its plausible that the Quran is the second addendum or it is the second Book after the Umm al Kitab or both, which th Last Prophet received. Further to substantiate that this Quran was the interpreted Arabic version of the Ummul Kitab. Q.4302 - And the clear Book , 03. We have made it an Arabic recitation that you might understand. 04. And indeed it is, in the UMM al KITAB with Us, exalted and full of wisdom. The Quran also says in 1404 And that We send message of a messenger except in the language of his people to state clearly for them?.. Since the Quran stated clearly that it is a Book of Explanation and a clear Book, as such it is obvious that it will explain to mankind in the different languages that exists in this world and not only in one geographical area and in that geographical language. Than it is going to be another explanation from that particular language from people who have no knowledge of the secrets of the Quran, as per 0307! Q.4103 - A Book , explain in detailed its verses, an Arabic recitation for a people who know, It is explicit that this is an Arabic version Quran. The verse ?an Arabic recitation FOR A PEOPLE?, shows clearly that this Quran was sent to the Arabs. That?s where the contradiction and fallacy pertaining to the outrageous translation of the Quran was born! The Quran also confirms that it is a judgement in Arabic. That shows clearly it is the Arabic version, sent to Arabs considering the verses of Chapter 13 below? And thus have We sent it (the Qur'an) down to be a judgement of authority in Arabic. Were you to follow their (vain) desires after the knowledge which has come to you, then you will not have any protector or defender against Allah. And indeed We sent Messengers before you, and made for them wives and offspring. And it was not for a Messenger to bring a sign except by Allah's leave. (For) every matter there is a decree (from Allah).) ALLAH eliminates what He wills or confirms, and with HIM is the UMM al KITAB. It tells us pertaining to this Quran that all rules and regulation had already been conveyed and explain to the Arab Messenger in Arabic. His job is to convey the message to his people, the Arabs. And if there is going to be any verses that is to be replace, it is up to ALLAH, considering the fact that in verse 39, ?ALLAH eliminates what He wills or confirms,? And ALLAH confirms that the Ummul Kitab is with him. Q.4144 - And if We had made it a non-Arabic Qur'an, they would have said, "Why are its verses not explained in detail ? Foreign and Arab " Say, "It is, for those who believe, a guidance and cure." And those who do not believe - in their ears is deafness, and it is upon them blindness. Those are being called from a distant place. If this is a non-Arabic Qur'an, then the Arabs, will questioned, why is it not explain in their language? Similarly, the non-Arabs, will question, why is the Quran not explain in their own language? Does 4144 contradicts 1404? Definitly not. In fact it proves that this Quran was the Arabic version! 7519 - Moreover, indeed, it is for Us to explain it. We meaning, ALLAH and HIS legislation will explain it, clarify it with whoever the messenger were that received the Quran in their respective languages with its meaning according to what ALLAH and HIS legislation intended and legislated. And further to substantiate my findings, Quran 16103 And We certainly know that they say, "Indeed it is a MORTAL that teaches him." The tongue of the one who deviates on him is foreign, and this is clear Arabic language. The above verse confirmed that the Last Prophet was the Mortal and the Foreign teacher. He was accused of deviating his student, who could only be the Arab Messenger. The Quran recorded what is in the mind of the people when they saw for themselves that the Arabic version Quran was taught to an Arab by someone who was not from their own culture or race. They taught that the foreigner was only deviating their Arab brother. The verse proves that the Prophet taught not only the Arab Messenger but Messengers assigned to their respective people. peace

    Salaam, Wanted to share something I found in the Quran which relates to psychology. My Arabic is pretty bad so wanted to run it by some Arabic speakers here 5016 And We have created Man and know what his soul whispers to him and We are closer to him than his = (Root Meaning) tie/fasten with rope, rope/cord, covenant, a thing by means of which one snares/catches/snares =(Root Meaning) to be present, arrive at (any water to drink), go down into, draw near to (a place). 5017 When from right and from left / = (Root Meaning) To meet, meet with, encounter, find, find out a thing, see, come across, experience, suffer from, occur, undergo, endure, lean upon, recieve, come face to face, go in the direction of or towards. = (Root meaning) to sit down, remain behind, to hold back, to tarry, lie in wait, sit still, remain unmoved, desist, abstain, refrain, lurk in ambush, set snares, neglect, act of sitting, foundations/bases, women who are past child bearing age, elderly spinsters past child bearing age, one who sits at home, one who sits still, seat or place of sitting, station, encampment. 5018 He does not utter a word except with having = (Root meaning) to guard, observe, watch, respect, regard, wait for, tie by the neck, warn, fear, control. = (Root meaning) to be ready, prepared, at hand, provide a thing for the future. So, I think the verses are talking about how God is closer to us than our stream of consciousness. Which is the point where the left and right brain hemispheres interact to produce our comprehension. And that there is an observer that is watching this process. What are your thoughts?

    Salaam, From the following verse It is not given to any human being that Allah should speak to him unless (it be) by Inspiration, or from behind a veil, or (that) He sends a Messenger to reveal what He wills by His Leave. Verily, He is Most High, Most Wise. (Qur'an 4251) I would like to know what does Allah almighty mean by, " From behind the veil". It's easy to work out what does Allah mean "by inspiration" or "by sending a messanger". But what's behind the veil mean? Sounds mysterious, doesn't it? I have been thinking very hard, but I can't work it out and I would really like to hear your thoughts on it. To me this is a very important question. Also, I would like to hear your thoughts on, what does" By inspiration" mean to you? It might be different for different Muslims. Thanks

    Why does God allow hardship and adversity on believers? There are a number of reasons why God allows hardship and adversity to befall the human. Even the genuine believers experience hardship and adversity at some stage in their lives in accordance to God?s wisdom and God?s plan 1- It is God?s design to put the human through hardship and adversity so as to test their faith and their resolve and trust in God Do the people think that they will be left to say, "We believe," without being put to the test? We have tested those before them, for God must distinguish those who are truthful, and He must expose the liars. also We will surely test you through some fear, hunger, and loss of money, lives, and crops. Give good news to the steadfast. To pass the test, the believer must maintain his trust that God only can relieve his hardship. The believer will maintain his prayer and call onto God Who is the One who rescues those who become desperate and call upon Him, relieves adversity, and makes you inheritors of the earth? Is it another god with God? Rarely do you take heed. 2- Hardship and adversity is also decreed by God as a cleansing of our souls for sins we have already committed. As a result, some of the bad things that happen to us are a direct result of sins we have committed Anything bad that happens to you is a consequence of your own deeds, and He overlooks many (of your sins). It can also be said that God, being the Most Just, would not punish us twice for the same sin. This means that the punishment we are given cleanses us and no further punishment is due. The concept of cleansing the human from sins in this life is a Quranic truth. It can be achieved through the experiencing of hardship and adversity (as 4230), and it can also be through the payment of a ?sadaqa? (charity) for the specific reason of cleansing the soul from sins which have been committed Take from their money a ?sadaqa? (charity) to purify and sanctify them. And encourage them, for your encouragement reassures them. God is Hearer, Omniscient. 3- Suffering through hardship and adversity is also a reminder for people who tend to take things for granted and forget all of God?s blessings. Despite all the blessings given to the human by God, the human being is unappreciative. A little reminder in the shape of hardship or adversity may hopefully do the job of teaching the human not to take God?s blessings for granted If you count God's blessings, you can never encompass them. Indeed, the human being is transgressing, unappreciative. When we bless the human being, he turns away, and drifts farther and farther away, and when he suffers any affliction, he implores loudly. 4- Adversity and hardship is also a very effective reminder for those who are too much absorbed in the worldly life, and thus they may not be as devoted to God as they should be. Due to their being too preoccupied with this worldly life they do not seek God nor call on God as they should He is the One who moves you across the land and sea. You get onto the ships, and they sail smoothly in a nice breeze. Then, while rejoicing therein, violent wind blows, and the waves surround them from every side. This is when they implore God, sincerely devoting their prayers to Him alone "If You only save us this time, we will be eternally appreciative." But as soon as He saves them, they transgress on earth, and oppose the truth. O people, your transgression is only to the detriment of your own souls. You remain preoccupied with this worldly life, then to us is your ultimate return, then we inform you of everything you had done. 5- Many people are either oblivious of, or need to be reminded of God?s absolute authority. Hardship and adversity are one way to remind them that no one can save them but God, and also remind them of God?s absolute authority. They also need to be reminded that they need God in every minute of their lives. Sadly when God relieves the adversity, many of them return to idol worship once again O people, you are the ones who need God, while God is in no need for anyone, the Most Praiseworthy If the human is touched by adversity, he implores us, but as soon as we bestow a blessing upon him, he says, "I attained this because of my cleverness!" Indeed, this is only a test, but most of them do not know. When adversity touches the human being, he implores us while lying down, or sitting, or standing up. But as soon as we relieve his adversity, he goes on as if he never implored us to relieve any hardship! The works of the transgressors are thus adorned in their eyes. When the human being is afflicted, he implores his Lord, sincerely devoted to Him. But as soon as He blesses him, he forgets his previous imploring, sets up idols to rank with GOD and to divert others from His path. Say, "Enjoy your disbelief temporarily; you have incurred the hellfire." When adversity afflicts the people, they turn to their Lord, totally devoting themselves to Him. But then, as soon as He showers them with mercy, some of them revert to idol worship. Source http//www.quran-islam.org/articles/part_3/human_suffering_(P1381).html

    Dear all we know what does this word means in the context of tradition and our blind belief in the tradition. Here is what whole Sura means based upon linguistic rules applied. Regards, 721 Reason possible action and then make it manifest by hastening towards understanding the mode of conduct, that those who lack reason will be frightened and take flight, saying certainly we have heard a wonderful collection of substantive principles. 722 A mode of conduct towards the right direction; therefore, with it we can become safe and secure and never ever shall we take copartner with our one and only foundation (inherent power/Rabb). 723 And that this substantive mode of conduct is highly elevated and dignified; a great wealth from our foundation (inherent power), that is to be sought after as a companion even more than children. .724 And that this mode of conduct is a total transgression of limits, from one who is not at all a deity for worship, thought so and expressed proliferated unwise amongst us. 725 And editorial consensus thought that never should you think and express a lie based upon the laying of a claim or title in heedless negligence or a lack of reason against one who is not at all a deity for worship. 726 And that this mode of conduct (reasoning) would help seekers, giving protection to navigate through this journey of heedless negligence and lack of reason, therefore acting as a provision for the journey against their inequitable and tyrannical conduct. 727 And if they thought like you did, never ever even once, one who is not a deity for worship has restrained anyone?s free will. 728 And that editorial consensus would like to touch on, for sake of knowledge, by experiencing it to be satisfied; kept guarded, sound and sturdy and like a shining star. 729 And that editorial peers used to argue with contention about it (modes of conduct) for the understandings, thus whoever seeks understanding, seeking and searching attain the distinguished quality; it is like a guiding star on a roadway. 7210 And the editorial peers cannot separate those more inequitable, corrupt and inconsistent who are on the planet earth, or inconsistent among themselves. Their inherent foundation is the right course to follow. 7211 And that editorial peers among us are the virtuous as well as the base and vile, these are parties of editorial peers differing in their desires. 7212 And that editorial peers, understood that it would never go backwards about totality, which is not at all a deity for worship; never ever on the planet earth shall they go backwards or flee from totality. 7213 And that editorial peers after perceiving the right mode of conduct, made themselves safe and secure with it. Consequently, whoever secures and safeguards with his inherent foundation. They shall neither have fear of being deficient nor of being inequitable and tyrannical in conduct. 7214 And those editorial peers in the midst of (community), so as to influence us, are the ones free of vice all the time as well as those acting inequitably. Although, whoever is the clearer of obstructions or obstacles of vice, those are ingenuous followers of right course. 7215 And as far as those acting inequitably, they are to be in universal spiritual ruin, cut off from vine that grows grapes. 7216 And that if they had persisted upon the mode of conduct surely editorial peers would have irrigated them from source of water. 7217 And editorial peers shall put them into arbitration, there in, to separate good (balanced) from bad (excessive). As to who stood against and prevented from remembrance of their inherent foundation. It makes him enter into a distressing affair to ascend. 7218 And that the acts of prostrations for one who is not at all a deity for worship will not promise anyone to be with totality, one who is not a deity worship. 7219 And that when one who stands surety by signed and witnessed bond as a virtuous craft to totality, which is not at all a deity for worship, is established, to try to find or discover by the searching or questioning of it, they become almost glued to it as a firm and stable mass, forming one body. 7220 Reason potential actions and then make manifest, only trying to find or discover by searching or questioning with the purpose belonging to each inherent foundation and never should ego copartner anything with it. 7221 Reason possible action and then make manifest, indeed ego neither at all possesses the power to determine, arbitrate, or otherwise settle issues or disputes to harm you, nor for walking straight path. 7222 Reason possible action and then manifest, I certainly neither will deviate from the right course of solidarity with, one who is not at all a deity for worship and nor will I exist as relinquisher of right course or as a base or vile in it. 7223 Besides attaining the utmost point towards which one directs his course to attain the state that is intended by one who is not at all a deity for worship as well ones communications and whoever rebelled against one who is not at all a deity for worship and one?s communication. Therefore, certainly for him is a fire of universal spiritual ruin, abiding in it perpetually. 7224 Until when they see that good promise only then they will know who weaker helper and are more numbered in persistent error. 7225 Reason possible action and then make manifest, that I know closer I come to what you promise or to that my foundation bought me into being for whole life time. 7226 The discipline of knowledge unperceived by senses shall not be revealed for anyone from its imperceptions . 7227 Except who is pleased with communication, otherwise in order to understand the mode of conduct, pursue it, based upon evidence and consolidate it, as well as follow it watchfully. 7228 Indeed for the sake of knowledge that really can lead to utmost point towards which one directs his course to attain the state that is intended really help to reach the utmost point sought for repair of affairs, from communications their inherent foundation and to be guarded with them also to have sound understanding everything considered as a being.

    Salaam brothers and sisters I live in London, England. I have been reading a lot of different translations of the Quran for years, and have in the past couple of years reading a lot of articles and going through websites to find out how/what Allah (glory to Him in the highest) wants mankind to follow. The advice that I took was from the Quran was 'listen to all views and follow the best'. The articles from this site, true Islam, quranicpath, muslimsfor Allah and my percent.co.uk was quite an eye opener and most of them made good sense. So I believe that if the verses in the Quran are about justice, kindness, consideration, tolerance, balance, patience, basically being just. I think that is what our deen/obligation is in this world. I don't think it is about rites and rituals. I have been also researching the history of the prophet from Muslim and non Muslim sources and I believe what we know about the history and location of the prophet in the Hadith was made up. Also, in the Hadith the description of Makkah seems quite different to what is is today. Quite shocking revelations actually! I think the Hadith can be used to make an argument against the fact that the prophet was from Makkah!

    The defeat of Muhammad in the Holy Land and surah 30 "the Byzantines" (ar-R?m) "The battle of Mou'ta in 629 is one of the very few events in the life of Muhammad that are attested for by non-muslim sources. This historical fact is often silenced, most likely because it speaks of a defeat and it is considered bad to say Muhammad could have been defeated by the Byzantines. This being said, the later written muslim historiographies paint the picture of a new battle having taken place one year later, or rather not having taken place, with the Byzantines withdrawing before the thirthy thousand men gloriously assembled by Muhammad. The honour of the Prophet of Islam is thus saved, even though this non-battle of Tabuk (N-W of Saudi Arabia) isn't attested for by any non-muslim historian, and one can wonder what a Byzantine army was doing in the desert. So what can we say about the objectives of Muhammad during the Battle of Mu'ta? Fred Donner thinks he wanted to submit the arab tribes (The Early Islamic Conquests, p. 102), with the objective to enlist them in the war claimed by the Quranic revelation - this author, ignoring all the exegesis of the text, assumes the Quran already existed. But, what really motivated Muhammad and his men? Can one say the project envisioned the conquest of the Holy Land and of Jerusalem to which, rightfully, everyone prayed? Did the location of the battle, situated in south-east of Jordan, express a fundamental symbol for the people of that time, the conquest of the "Holy Land" starting with the crossing of Jordan?" (PFJ). Having verified things, two small towns present themselves in history using the name of Mou'ta (Mu'tah) one was situated in the N-E of Joran (nearby Bosra or Bostra) (1), the other, more southern, is today a university city of Jordan. The latter, being the military post of the IVth military byzantine region, gave its name to the battle. The Holy Land was organised by the Byzantines (or Romans as they still used to be called at that time) using four regions Judea, Galilea, the south from the Dead Sea to Aqaba, and, in the east-south-east, "Arabia". The military post of this IVth region was composed of cavaleers (equites), troops on foot (scutarii) and auxiliaries (Illiriciani). By the end of 629 this byzantine force, supported by a contingent of Lakhmid Arabs, confronted the troops led by Muhammad. The event is being told about in the "Chronicle of Theophanes"; but the idea of why Muhammad chose to attack these Arabs of the N-W does not make sense. Verily, the byzantine authors never really understood the ideological nature of the project much later, they still believed that the Arab invaders were nomads who simply followed a policy of razzias! A much embarrassing fact Multiple elements, resulting from convergent analyses, have to be taken into account here, to leave the myth and to enter the historical reality. It is this convergence that constitutes the certitude of the historian; in contrast to a single document or indictator (for example, the direction of prayer which effectively was Jerusalem) on itself, every document will always be contestable in one way or another. In this specific case, the Quranic text itself - as will be demonstrated - has some data that reveal a history completely different from that written down in muslim historiographies two centuries after the events took place, under the authority of the Caliphs. At least one verse refers to the defeat in Mu'ta; or, it was modified! Could the goal of this modification have been solely to wipe out this memory? It's sufficient to invent a new battle in which Muhammad was victorious, and that's exactly what the historiographies have done with Tabuk. "And We have already written in the book after the mention that the land is inherited by My righteous servants." (sur. 21,105 - the allusion is referring to Psalm 37 verses 9.11.22.29). "Indeed, the earth belongs to Allah. He causes to inherit it whom He wills of His servants. And the outcome is for the righteous." (sur. 19, 40) "And it is He who has made you successors upon the earth and has raised some of you above others in degrees that He may try you through what He has given you." (sur. 6, 165) These verses are relating to the nazarene-arab coalition established in Yathrib-Medina and known elsewhere. The route taken by the troops of Muhammad coming from Medina is all together very revealing. A map orientated north to south reveals immediately they were arriving from the south, but they did not enter in Palestine from that direction they travelled through Transjordania. The idea was to arrive facing the Jordan. Crossing the Jordan would have been the sign of the victorious conquest of the Holy Land similar to what the Hebrews of the Exodus did according to the Biblical description (cf. Numbers 33). They wanted to enter the Holy Land, crossing the Jordan barefooted, corresponding to the extraordinary account given in the book of Joshua (3, 14-17). This similarity hasn't escaped the best islamic scholars, who saw the analogy between the concept of traditional Exodus, ending in the miraculous crossing of the Jordan, and the idea of Hijra. This concept of Hijra used to determine how the first "muslims" were referred to. Before calling them "muslims" (starting from the end of the 7th century, beginning of the 8th century), they were given the name of mu-hajir?n (root hjr of Hijra), more specifically those who made the Hijra, or the emigrants. There was similarly a muslim tradition "who implicitly regarded Palestine as the objective of the hijra there was hijra after hijra, but the best of men follow the hijra of Abraham - towards the Holy Land" (2) This was the only expedition made by Muhammad in his life in that direction the nazarene-arab coalition had difficulties overcoming this defeat, as the text illustrates. It's only later, under Umar, that this project of conquest was again taking shape and eventually realized. The Quran speaks about the consequences of Mu'ta A passage in the Quran refers to these events the beginning of surah Ar-R?m (the Romans). They are dated to 630, at the end of the Medina period. In the immediate aftermath of this defeat, his goal was to raise spirits and moral again and to promise a future revenge. This dating of the battle (by Greek historians) is at the same time the only trustworthy dated indicator we dispose of about that person who will be later known as the Prophet of Islam! As Blach?re explains (3), the start of this surah The Romans (30,2-5) is stating something absurd - at least if we look at it today "The Romans (being the Byzantines) have been defeated (g?ulibat) in the nearest of the Land. They, after their defeat (g?alabi-him), will be victorious (sayag?lib?na) in a few years." Were the muslims invited to celebrate over the victory of the Byzantines? Who on earth would celebrate over the victory of their enemies, and this "within a few years"? The absurdity of this text does not escape to muslim commentators, who prefer to talk about other things. Where is the error? Another reading of the text is possible, based on the different vowelization of the three most important words of the same root being defeated, victory (the root g?lb, winning, can thus not give a noun meaning defeat), and winners. The question is legitimate because the vowels weren't added to the Quranic text until quite some time later. It's exactly these vowels who determine whether the form of the word will be passive or active. And if we read the text with active instead of passive and vice versa we come to the following result "The Romans were victorious (g?alabat) in the nearest of Land. They, after their victory (g?alibi-him), will be defeated (sayag?lab?na) in a few years." The text becomes perfectly clear and logic again - what it was originally. It is not a prophecy but a reference to a recent and desastrous event that took place at the "gates to the Land" - the defeat at Mou'ta in 629. This verse wants to raise the moral of the defeated, by promising them to be victorious "within a few years" and that they will have the help of God (this effectively took place 5 years later, when Muhammad wasn't alive anymore). Cf . ABEL F.-M., G?ographie de la Palestine, Paris, Gabalda, tome II, 1938. Crone Patricia, Cook Michael, Hagarism. The Making of the Islamic World, Cambridge University Press, 1977, p.9.

    The traditional account of the Arabs of the 7th century (of the Hejaz or elsewhere) pictures them most of the time as "polytheists" until the revelation of Quran, unfamiliar with any bilblical or judeo-christian tradition. But can we really believe or support the idea that travelling caravan-traders during a period of six centuries of infrequent contacts with jews and christians, were totally ignoring the judeo-christian revelation? In the Quran, the word used to denote the polytheistic arabs is that of mu?rik?n, which according to the etymology and all the authors of the 8th and 9th century, signifies "associators", and such is the continued reproach addressed to the christians. The supposed "arab polytheism" from which the islamic doctrine would give rise to the new Revelation and proto-islam, is in reality little convincing in respect of the quranic text itself multiple verses give explicit proof of the monotheistic faith of these mu?rik?n who were supposed to be polytheists. A polytheism contradicted by what the text says about mu?rik?n The detailed study of the quranic text does not only shed light on what the mu?rik?n-associators are not (i.e. horrible polytheists who burry their little daughters and who attribute to God daughters-goddesses); but also tells us what they effictively are real monotheists. The "associators" who confirm believing in One God First of all, they believe in the existence of a Creator and believe that this Creator is called Allah "If you ask them Who created the heavens and the earth, and subjected the sun and the moon?" Surely they would say "Allah" (s.29,61.63 || 31,25 || 39,3. Allah was the name used by the Arab christians even before the rise of Islam (1), corresponding to the hebrew El or Elohim. Furthermore, the faith of the mu?rik?n was not only montheistic, but trinitarian, which one can deduce from the anti-trinitarian polemic (2) of another verse "By Allah, our Lord, we were not of those who associate." (s.6,23) Who are those the author accuses of being "associators" and who defend themselves verbally against it? Do polytheists say they aren't polytheists? In this verse, the author wants to expose in advance, in the spirit of his disciple, the objection the christians will raise in defense of their faith, saying they only worship God. The reply is connected to the following verse it will be sufficient to treat these christians as liars "Look how they lied against themselves" (s.6,24) Jean de Damas, who visited the court of the Caliph, gives already explicit testimony of the primitive denominator of the christians and only the christians using the term mu?rik?n "They call us associators, because they claim, we introduce an associate besides God, by saying that Christ is the Son of God and is God."; According to this witness report, the word never meant idolators (3). A writing known as "Against Muhammad (Kat? Mwamed), dating from most likely the same time, gives the same meaning to the word associators, reserved to denominate the christians with (4). Even the Quraysh (the tribe of Muhammad), according to the Quran and Tabari, are veritable polytheists. In the unique and short surah 106 where it mentions them, one can read "They worship the Lord of this House (rabb h?d? l-bayti)" (s.106,3) Tabari explains that the "Lord of this house" (5) they worship, is Allah. Would it then be necessary to explain this if this Lord is Allah? (1) The name of 'Abd-Allah (meaning servant of God) is an arab christian name predating the Quran. Even if this looks insignifcant, it suffices to remember that "Allah" is "the christian name of the Deity, by which millions of christian arabs call to their God in the morning and evening before Mohammad" (Les arabaes chr?tiens ..., Paris 1933, p. 126) (2) This kind of anti-trinitarian polemic is very present in the Quran see also 6,41.136; 10,12.22; 16,38.54; 23,86-89 || 31,32 || 43,87 and the remarks of Sfar Mondher, Le Coran, La Bile et L'Orient ancien, Paris, diffusion Cerf, 1998, p. 108-109 (3) Jean de Damas used the particular denominator of idolators to refer to the groups of Arabs who he believed to have remained polytheists before Mohammed "The Saracenes were idolators, and worshipped the morning star as well as Aphrodite ... wrongfully accuse us of being idolators, cause we worship the cross, which they resent. (Trait? des h?r?sies written in around 746 - la 100e h?r?sie, 4,1.13, S.C. n? 383, Paris, Cerf, 1992, p.217). (4) This treaty "Against Muhammad"(Kat? Mwamed ? P.G. 104, 1456 B) is sometimes wrongly considered as a sort of continuation of Refutation against the Hagarenes by Bartholomew of Edessa, which was written later. (5) And that the "House" undeniably is the Meccan Ka'ba. Which is very debatable - see Pr?mare Alfred-Louis de, Les fondations de l?Islam..., Paris, Seuil, 2002, p.70.

A recent revision of his translation of this verse reads, "Successful indeed are the believers." In examining this verse with knowledge of the verb form 4, it is readily understood that is conveying, in terms of an English translation No doubt the believers have already won! The 4th form past tense verb, is on the pattern of . (See 10 forms of the Verb chart) This word, can translate into English as he was caused to be successful. The particle qad, means "no doubt" in this instance. Thus, we derive at the meaning "No doubt the believers have already won!" The verses from The Qur?aan following 231, that is 232,3,4,5,8,9 indicate what believers must do to attain success. In Arabic, the 4th form sometimes means past, present and future, at the same time or explained another way, has no tense connotation. Also, the causation of Allah is sometimes indicated in the 4th form patterns. In summing up this verse, in light of the succeeding verses, it seems Allah, Highly Glorified is He, is declaring that the believers who engage themselves as indicated by verses, 232,3,4,5,8,9 are successful now, were successful in the past and are successful in the future. Muslim is on the 4th form, active participle pattern. Islam is on the 4th form verbal noun pattern. See on the 10 forms chart, page 148. No one can grasp His vision.

I have read this detailed, scholarly work of our brother, Siddeeq Jihad.The book is basically written and structured to help anyone who is interested in learning Classical Arabic. The book is highly instructive and well organized. No doubt, the author Siddeeq Jihad has a great love for Lughatut-tanzeel, the language of revelation. He has dedicated many years studying and teaching Qur?aanic Arabic. Allah has enabled him to share the knowledge He has blessed him with. Siddeeq has had a long jihad (exertion of diligent effort/time) in learning Qur?aanic Arabic. The book is extremely useful! It is an excellent guide for beginners and non-beginners and whoever is interested in learning Lughatut-Tanzeel The Language of Revelation. This work equips and empowers its readers with a strong foundation to understand Qur?aanic Arabic. It can indeed lead students, male and female toward Arabic proficiency. I strongly recommend the book for brothers and sisters who are interested in learning Qur?aanic Arabic as well as Modern Standard Arabic. Sheikh Ali S.

    My bad, before I started following Quran I hardly checked the true meanings of Allah's 99 names. I didn't even wonder whether they were all inside Quran. Once I read that reciting the names of Allah could fulfill wishes. So I did it . Now I have come across the nameAd-Darr. Umm, it means The Distressor, The Harmer, The Afflictor. I tried to find verse about this, but whatever search results I am getting are from secterians. They are using verses which don't seem to have any connection to calling Allah the distressor confused Here is an exampleAnd if Allah should touch you with adversity, there is no remover of it except Him. And if He touches you with good ? then He is over all things competent.(Surat Al-?Anaam 617) Now inside my mind I am feeling that calling Allah distressor, harmer with the sole purpose of getting a wish fulfilled is a little too much unholy and stupid maybe??? It has made me suspicious about the rest. I know some are inside Quran. Not sure about the rest. Did anyone do a research on this? For me currently it is 99-1=98.
