This is interesting. What make 'men, matters and knowledge' into idols?
I'd like to get to know your ideas better, to prevent any misunderstanding on my part.Peace brother
Idol means falsehood, deaf, dumb and blind men matters and their knowledge would die, would decay, and would be obsolete and irrelevant as days passby. All men's utterances would be outdated and far removed from the Truth time and again, each time ringing death knell to their knowledge teaching their conscience louder, stronger and clear as the creation keeps going beyond man's all the wildest hypotheses all-along. The Truth of Natural process is ever living, ever changing, ever bifurcating, ever anew, never ending. Man would die, and man would die and would continue to die and the new generations would spring up and they would not be like the ones created before them. That is the difference between man, matter and their materials on the one side and THE TRUTH on the other.

201 Ta Ha The Initials of Allah
Allah has stamped His initials before the chapter starts.Ta Tahir - The Most Pure
Ha Hudha - The Guide.Allah Gives His Guidance to him who strives to be Pure.
Here is The Guidance from the Most Pure.202 We have not sent down this Quran unto you to cause difficulty.
People generally feel Quran is difficult to understand and even more so to put whatever they had understood into practice. Allah says He would Guide those who strive to be pure in their heart without recourse to evil ways; and make them course through any demanding situation in the easiest possible manner to the hardest way according to the efforts each one has put to stay pure for Allah without associating partners to Him. If you ask for explanation to an ayat only from Him, the answer comes from your own natural self. Now it is easy for you to practice the ayats in your day to day life. But when an explanation to any particular ayat is got from someone else, know for sure it is not from your own self but from another man's nature which is suitable only for his nature to put it into practice and surely it is the hardest guidance for you for reason it is not your self.
Quran's ayats are suitable for all times, for all men, for all situations, to each person, for all good purposes, and for all persons during each one's varying moods. Thus every ayat is highly individualised to every person throughout his life in his varying moods and situations. Only Allah knows how to deal with such of one's each situation, throughout his life. And hence, seek the guidance from Allah direct, when you recite on ayat, since Allah sends down the revelation to one and all from each one's own natural self which alone shall be easy for a person to practice, individually, all his life. Thus if there are 7 billion people in the world, any single ayat will give 7 billion different variants of a revelation by the moment, and yet, each variant shall not contradict the principal revelation of an ayat. In this way even if the whole sea could be ink and seven more seas are added to it still they would dry up before Allah's words to any single ayat could be completed.

Javed,
When one says he believes in Allah, this means, in his whole life he would follow Allah and only Allah; and His messenger from among the malayika; and His messengers from among the men; and following the Book by His command that testifies he is guided; and paves his way decisively through eternity. This is Islam i.e. The Way To Salam to become a Muslim, starting from the scratch i.e. from the state of a mumin.
Unless we are sure Allah Guides us personally there is no way our hearts would be at peace regarding the certainty of our path. Though we believe Allah sees all that we do; and we believe He hears everything we speak; and we believe He knows what we openly say and do; and that which we hide in our hearts; and we know He is with us so closely wherever we are - yet we shall not believe or falter by failing to believe that He would guide us, speak to us, caution us, comfort us, care for us, warn us, deliver us, distinguish and differentiate everything around us, teach us the criterion, teach us the two paths, give us light and elevate us in our wisdom. He is with us all along. But our problem is that we are not mindful of what we say and what we do. Still Allah forgives us and mercifully keeps guiding us.
Now we have to read this
73 Follow what has been revealed to you from your God and do not follow guides besides Him; little do you mind.
671 Say you, "Indeed, the guidance of Allah is the only guidance; and we have been commanded to submit to the God of the worlds."
15 "Guide us in the Straight Path."
548 For each We have prescribed a divine guidance and unique life.
2148 And each has a guidance to which direction he should turn
238 And from me shall the guidance come to you, whoever follows My guidance - there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve.
568 Say, "O People of Quran, you are standing on nothing until you uphold the Taurat, the Injeel, and that which has been revealed to you from your God."And when you follow only that which has been revealed to you from your God will surely increase many of them in transgression and disbelief. So do not grieve over the disbelieving people.
Javed, if you see any discrepancy between the ayat feel free to ask; but if you seek guidance from your God, totally freeing yourself from the web of all knowledges we had gathered thus far, you shall see Allah's RUH showering the Light upon you, showing clear path to the victorious future.

Thank you DrFazl, brilliant wisdom you have been graced with by God. Especially thank you for clarifying that mumin may actually come first although there is a verse that alludes to professing islam then becoming a mumin I believe?
He gives wisdom to whom He wills, and whoever has been given wisdom has certainly been given much good. And none will remember except those of understanding.

IAMOP
Do you mean this ayat?
The wandering Arabs say We believe. Say Ye believe not, but rather say "We submit," for the faith hath not yet entered into your hearts. Yet, if ye obey Allah and His messenger, He will not withhold from you aught of your deeds. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
Wandering those who wander about the earth seeking means of or begging for mere survival on this earth. They do not have insight or guidance from within for they never believed in the Unseen Mighty Power of the RUH in their hearts; however they got so used to their man instituted lowly living that they have taken such life for granted as living by divine destiny.
Wandering Arabs such people are there in every part of the world; here, an example from a worst section of the Arab population of its kind is chosen and justifiably cited as an example to the rest of the world, which section would be as such to the end of the world for Quran is the Truth forever. It is from this section of Arab population the 'submitters' of their kind are spread throughout the world under the guise of imams, mullahs and moulavis. The place of final refuge for the wandering Arabs throughout the world is the Ka'aba in Mecca before these submitters would reach the heaven.
'You believe not; rather say, ' We submitted ' and are well satisfied with our own rituals, ceremonial rites, and material offerings to Our gods and had fallen before our dearly idols'.
May Allah Guide Us All

Save your life for the world-After!
Are you rushing to 7star hospitals during a so called 'emergency' situation? Do you think the doctors would save your life? And do you think these 'doctors' created your life so that you believe they know what a life-force is and save you from death? Is it not open shirk? Seeing your critical condition, do the doctors not take your signature on their pre-written document wherein it states that the doctors are not responsible for your life when you finally die at their skilled hands, and with their modern medicines and under their specialised knives?
When you die so do you not die as rejecters? Or is it that because of your oft-repeated rejection of Faith in Allah alone, the only Savior, had Allah sealed your hearts from turning to Him and had hence driven you from your homes to the death-beds of hospitals?
478
Wheresoever you may be, death will overtake you, even though you were in lofty hospitals.
3154
Say Even though you had been in your houses, those appointed to be slain would have gone forth to the places where they were to lie in order that Allah might try what is in your breasts and prove what is in your hearts. Allah is Aware of the shirk hidden in the hearts.It is time to reminisce in the Name of Allah and say, 'You are my Only Helper, Only Protector' and rehearse the ayats prayerfully, during all testing times for the rest of your lives and show your sincere attempts to Allah that you will not go to saviours save He; and you will not give in to that grave satanic cry Rush to the doctors to save your lives!
Remember we are to save our lives for the world-after! Since we lived by the ayats of Allah, thus as we lived by the promise we made to Allah until our souls departed by His leave, we are not to be called the dead; but The Living, until the gates of heavens are opened up for us on the day when the heavens and the earth are changed to New Order where we enter to live forever in the Gardens!
3169
Think not of those, who are slain in the way of Allah, as dead. Nay, they are living. With their Lord they have provision.3626
It was said unto him Enter paradise. He said "Would that my people knew"

"For that my Lord has granted me Forgiveness and has enrolled me among those held in honour!" -
Sir,
I'm not sure I understand to what extent you reject the medical profession. Also I have no idea what country you live in and what sort of health related experiences you've had, but I don't understand how seeking help from a hospital equals open shirk. Perhaps it's just me and my limited understanding of Allah's laws. Would you kindly answer the following questions for the benefit of my understanding of your position
- Am I a mushrik for having had my appendix taken out?
- Is it shirk to take a vaccinations? (e.g. for dangerous child diseases)
- Is it shirk to have a hospital treat a disease or accident trauma that would otherwise kill you if untreated?
- Is it shirk to take antidots when poisoned?
- Is it impossible for a god-fearing muslim to be a doctor or surgeon, or vice versa?
- If a doctor patches up a ruptured aorta of a patient, with the result that the patient can go back to a normal life, is the patient then doing shirk, just because he/she otherwise would have died (with an untreated ruptured aorta)?
Of course, no-one can control life and death. If some doctors reject God, and think they can control life and death... does this mean that all of the medical profession is same a shirk? I mean, if a doctor stops a fatal aorta bleed, or jump starts a heart, then this of course happened because Allah allowed it to happen. Is it shirk to take part in life where Allah lets your life continue??
Peace!

'Of course, no one can control life and death.'
With that single sentence of your post you have answered from your natural faith all your 'questions'. Before you read further, you can read again the same post I have sent you earlier to this one. Now I am only bringing to surface the faithful answers from the deep of your own heart as you read the following ayats of Quran.
- Am I a mushrik for having had my appendix taken out?
What did Allah created the appendix for? For no use? If yes, then Allah does many many things without resoluteness or 'at cross-purposes'. Firmly this is the medical knowledge when the doctors, surgeons are at their wits end. Because the patients believed them to be the 'masters of human creation', they believed all-nonsense that come out of their despondent theories. Standing as masters before you, they terrorise you to swallow up whatever they utter; and we submit and surrender to their ignorance. Here we should have remembered Allah "Allah has power over all things, He is All-Knowing, The Wise, The Curer and we should have kept our wits about. We had lost Remembrance of The Almighty and there we start making mistakes that invariably lead us to misunderstandings about Allah.
4336
And whoever is blinded from remembrance of the Most Merciful - We appoint for him a shaitan, and he is to him a commander.Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. Hence if we seek forgiveness now or at any point of time in our life repenting before we die, we shall find Allah as such. We would be no more doers of evil, by His Grace and we cease to be mushriks from the very moment.
- Is it shirk to take vaccinations? (e.g. for dangerous child diseases)
And 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.
Do we remember our Promise to Allah when we said Allah is He alone. There is no Competent one besides He. If we stand by our pure words of promise to Allah to keep alive the covenant, then there is nothing bad should befall us. The Pure Words are
364
Say, "O People of the Book, come to a word that is equitable between us and you - that we will not call except Allah and not associate anything with Him and not take one another as masters instead of Allah." But if they turn away, then say, "Bear witness that we are well-pleased to stand by our word of promise to The Almighty - as Muslims."This, we have to say to those 'muslims' who happen to be your near and dear one's, your friends and relatives around you, who would force you to go to their Malik, the Masters, MD doctors/MS surgeons, and terrorise you saying you will die otherwise. In their hearts is the treachery and the disease.The disease is in the heart of us is that we suspect the Competence of Allah after accepting Him; this is because we have lost in the remembrance of Allah taking recourse to deviant ways of shaitans. Allah will increase in our deviant ways and shaitan would make all the ways beautiful to us, other than the Only Way.
2 8, 9, 10
And of the people are some who say, "We believe in Allah and the Lasting Day," but they are not believers. They think to deceive Allah and those who believe, but they deceive not except themselves and perceive it not. In their hearts is disease, so Allah has increased their disease; and for them is a painful punishment because they habitually used to lie.- Is it shirk to have a hospital treat a disease or accident trauma that would otherwise kill you if untreated?
It is good to remember the ayats from my earlier post again
478
Wheresoever you may be, death will overtake you, even though you were in lofty hospitals.
3154
Say Even though you had been in your houses, those appointed to be slain would have gone forth to the places where they were to lie in order that Allah might try what is in your breasts and prove what is in your hearts. Allah is Aware of the shirk hidden in the hearts.- Is it impossible for a god-fearing muslim to be a doctor or surgeon, or vice versa?
I threw away my MD in medicine and became free from the abominable influence of shaitans all around me - my relatives and friends - when I knew the medical subject is absolutely rotten and outright satanic, in the year 1982, disbanded by hospital within weeks, after a seemingly successful practitioner for six years. From then on, 30 good years have passed by; in my family there are no medicines and we have forgotten what a disease would be like, Masha Allah! I have been teaching how to pray God to get cured of the disease making them believe in the words of Allah alone since 13 years; there are tens of thousands of patients who now believe only in Allah for all their adversities let alone diseases and they are free from worry and fear. They are mostly Hindu brethren who were in idol worshiping, the people of Ibrahim; they all have the Quran I have translated into their mother tongue, totally making it pure from even the remote touch of venomous hadiths. They would not go to temples, no pujas, no rituals, no festivals and nothing of their habitual ceremonies.
- If a doctor patches up a ruptured aorta of a patient, with the result that the patient can go back to a normal life, is the patient then doing shirk, just because he/she otherwise would have died (with an untreated ruptured aorta)?
There is a medical condition at birth congenital septal defects in the heart; fallot's tetralogy involving the valves of the heart in addition, cardiomyopathy and so on. None can cure or patch them up and make the child or patient lead normal life thereafter; they have to suffer and die only under the knives and the poisonous drugs. Let us remember this ayat at this moment
Say, " Allah causes you to live, then causes you to die; then He will assemble you for the Day of Resurrection, about which there is no doubt, but most of the people do not know."
May Allah save us from the ignorance called 'knowledge of man'. And seek Him in forgiveness and call upon Allah and say "O Allah, increase us in your Wisdom!"

Peace Zulf.
I agree with drfazl.
If only we can really believe in every letter, every word, every verse of God s scripture....
2677 ? ( All these Man made promises/ways/religions...!) I am against them , for I am devoted to the Lord of the universe.?
2678 ? The one who created me and guided me.?
2679 ?The one who feeds me and waters me.?
2680 ?And when I get sick , HE heals me.?
2681 ? The one who puts me to death, then brings me back to life.?....
Peace.

Peace,
Very good points drfazl, it gave me something to think and reflect upon. I have thought about it before, but never enforced it fully in my life. But I believe like you say, that God suffice us.
Thank you for bringing it up.
God bless you

Salaam drfazl, and the rest
Thanks for your detailed reply to my questions.
As far as I can sense, you have gained deep wisdom from The Creator. Although my mind perhaps would like further elaboration on some answers, or is not really satisfied, I also know that it is the mind in it's disconnectedness which lures us away from Allah, or at least this is my current understanding, and I shall not fall prey to my mind to demand further answers in absurdum. I will not ask more details about the cow. There are already plenty of such threads here on this forum... and they lead no-where. I will take your posts, and ask Allah for increased understanding. This I know works, because I see it demonstrated in my life continuously. I will ask Allah to open my eyes further, to truth and reality. It's a lifelong journey back home to Allah and reality, and I really love this journey... it gives meaning to life.One of my favorite prayers to Allah is to show me the truth, let me be able to handle it and let me find joy in it and love it. It has done wonder for me so far.
Thank you again for your kind replies.
Peace and best wishes! -
Salam zulf,
As and when I post on various topics under this thread just keep reading it. Naturally without any difficulty you would feel getting imbibed into the essence of Quran and all hesitancy shall be overcome in due course for I post each one with prayer.

Make Not Allah Hate Us
Allah hates those who speak things that they do not do while they claim to be believers in humility1. Arguments develop only because there is no personal proof in practice to what we say. Those who engage in exchange of vanities - it is a loss to both the parties with shaitan as the mediator leading both the parties to the inevitable dispute, ending up parting ways in enmity. If we fear Allah's displeasure upon us, we would prayerfully take utmost care to utter any word we say shall have to be pleasantly communicative to the hearts of those who possess the listening ability with comprehensiveness. Such would only add to the nice and subtle opinions already put forth if they have one of their own. With such a gathering, small or big, Allah is with them2 complementing their niceties increasing their peace and wisdom; and make them disperse in search of Allah's bounties with salam3; and glorifying God for having gathered for us such wonderful people as participants and audience.

O you who have believed, why do you say what you do not do? It is most hateful in the sight of Allah that you should say that which you do not - 62.2,3

There is no secret conference of three but He is their fourth, nor of five but He is their sixth, nor of less than that or more but He is with them wheresoever they may be - 58.7

And when the prayer is thus ended, then disperse in the land and seek of Allah's bounty, and remember Allah much, that ye may be successful - 62.10

Make not Allah hate us - 2
The soul houses the RUH of Allah through which Allah sends down His revelation to the soul distinguishing the righteous path from the path of error to those who seek guidance from Allah alone; it is such of them whom Allah is pleased with and upon them He sends His Grace. Who are these people and how they earn the pleasure of Allah? The purity of one's soul is preserved as long as they seek and receive the guidance from the RUH, guarding each soul. Regarding every matter of dispute and every situation of gloom in the heart, they observe patience in the Name of Allah, and listen to the Lone voice speaking to them clearly, "You shall not suffer either confusion or depression at any point of time." Such people are well aware that this is the voice of their God because they believe He alone can deliver such distinction clarity with regard to the future.
Their patience, their belief, their listening, their obedience, their submission to their RUH - all such qualities are due to their reflection and reasoning in all matters of life in their souls with questions such as what, why, when, whence and how? As these questions are well entrenched in their souls as believers that they are, and who do not ask the queries to or take the guidance from the outside world, they are listened to only by their God. Only now God answers each of them with a beautiful guidance to suit each one's natural ability to follow His course, individually, without the need for anybody's help.
At any given time there are very many people of this standing round the globe; Allah chooses the best among them for the Gracious living by His Mercy to make him live before his people as a formidable Sign from Him; and there are messengers of this order in every town, every capital and in every linguistic population, chosen by His Grace endowing them of His Wisdom for all time to come. Allah is the Best to judge as to who to choose for guiding a misguided people. Such people do come to their people with message of admonition and glad tidings with clear proof and wisdom from their God; though the people receive the message in their souls with awe, the evil of their envious behaviour overtakes them, making them reject with arrogance, the message and admonition wholesomely. Lo! they know not they had rejected their own souls, shuttering down their gateways for heaven inviting the curse and the wrath of Allah upon them. This is the worse they could do in their entire lives. Their abode is hell and disgraceful punishment.
"The worst is what they have earned by selling their souls-- that they rejected out of sheer envy, the Graceful Guidace that Allah sends down on whoever of His servants He pleases; so they have incurred upon them wrath upon wrath; to such rejecters is a disgraceful punishment." 290

Earning the Grace of Allah
Allah's Grace is not forbidden to anyone. The grace of Allah will not go unrewarded for all the good works one does in his entire life however trivial or small or indistinct it might be, even if its size is of the seed of a mustard and also, even though the good work he has done is a long forgotten one. In this way there cannot be a sigle living individual who has not done even a single good deed by way of his mind, or of his words, or of his actions during his life. Allah's grace is bestowed upon the heart of the receiver of the reward thus strengthening his faith upon faith, sharpening his distinguishing ability, making him stand firm in the cause of righteousness thus elevating his positions by the time because of the constancy even in such good deeds of nano miniature scale. They would be well contented and satisfied in life with gratitude for whatever their God had provided them. These people always do wonder why God had given them so much when they had done nothing meritorious in the path of God. What they had done is this they had not envied others when they flourished by their God's Will, and they always guard them from the evil and say "O my God, I seek refuge in You from the evil of the envious when he envies."
There are most people who openly do a lot of seemingly good deeds but unacceptable to God; they are of jealous ones the evil of which undoes all the good works they had done. This evil nature of every person is not only an obstacle to his elevation but to the grief some situation all his life. The more one envies a person who is very well off by his God's grace, the worse is the adversity he would suffer in his life. And the more the envied person ignores the jealous for the sake of God, they would be given even a grand kingdom. Such are they the people of Ibrahim, the idol worshiping society who were normally looked down upon as 'rejecters' by the so called 'muslims'. Allah dislikes them who take up the mantle of judging others in any manner. In this way the 'muslims' are the foremost sinners among the entire human kind. They are the ones standing as model for others why God had deprived them of His Grace.
"The worst is what they have earned by selling their souls-- that they rejected out of sheer envy, the Graceful Guidace that Allah sends down on whoever of His servants He pleases; so they have incurred upon them wrath upon wrath; to such rejecters is a disgraceful punishment." 290
"Or do they envy the people for what Allah has given them of His grace? But indeed We have given to Ibrahim's children the Book and the wisdom, and We have given them a grand kingdom." 454
