    Indeed, IT IS A NOBLE QURAN
    In a protected Book <- if Allah says it is protected, who can unlock its true understanding?
    None can grasp it
    except those purified (from Shirk) <- the key to understand the true meaning of the Qur'an
    (5677-79)

    And it is not the word of a poet
    little do you believe
    Nor the word of a soothsayer
    little do you remember
    a revelation from the Lord of the worlds
    (6941-43)

      Peace Brother,

      Allah's Names by Just 99 Names ?. I think you are referring Hadith

      Salam jhonsonmustafa,

      Yes brother, for easy understanding and this thread is not related to Asma Ul Husna. You can open a new thread to discuss in depth about the names/attributes of Allah.

      As for this thread, I'm referring to what is generally accepted by Muslim.

      It is translated as The Best Identifiers ( 208 )

      What is "Identifiers"?

      one that identifies

      Noun 1. identifier - a symbol that establishes the identity of the one bearing it
      symbol - an arbitrary sign (written or printed) that has acquired
      a conventional significance

      Therefore, must Allah names/attributes be specific?

      Not necessarily be specific names/attributes, and it is sufficient for us to understand Allah's attributes.

      Further, there is nothing wrong to refer to a hadith on "the standard of justly balanced" (or refer to other religious books, and so as other books that relates to science, mathematics, philosophy, economy etc.), unless to those who belong to sects or religious dogma, whatever their names are (label/illusion).

      Peace brother.

      p/s If you don't mind.. I would like to ask "Whether waiting/hoping for a Messenger or savior to come and save us is a Shirk?" What is your opinion on the matter?

          Salam,

          For religious people.. yes, but I am not religious people, sorry.

          Just and balance has no religion and it is the Deen of Islam.

          Further, there is nothing wrong to refer to a hadith on "the standard of justly balanced" (or refer to other religious books, and so as other books that relates to science, mathematics, philosophy, economy etc.), unless to those who belong to sects or religious dogma, whatever their names are (label/illusion).

          Ibrahim was not a Jew <- Ibrahim has no religion. So as Muhammad, not a Jew/Christian (religion).
          nor a Christian http//api.ning.com/files/uGCxg7sZSOsBbNwvSUN0m6uFBP5OUvR7e-3lYPcnfzzdki1NKdfBKi*MBEzKhhqFLbCaNgzbOCTwHTwBFp0cz3nyqUP-l7F1/arrowDownSmall.png
          but he was (an) upright (man) <- showing a great concern for what is right, fair and truthful way
          a Muslim <- defined by the above ayat - an upright man - obedience and justly balanced.
          and he was not one of the polytheists <- Concern with right/wrong in religious matters - 3030-32

          Most surely the nearest of people to Ibrahim
          are those
          who followed him
          and this Prophet
          and those who believe
          and Allah is the guardian of the believers
          (367-6

          I'm from Malaysia and practicing all faiths that are glorifying just and balance, whether it is from the hadith, other sects or any other religions. Islam rejects the idea of religion and the only way to reject all religions is to accept all religions. Peace!! )

          peace brother.

            (2543)

            And set forth to them a parable of two men
            for one of them We made two gardens of grape vines
            and We surrounded them both with palms
            and in the midst of them We made cornfields

            Both these gardens yielded their fruits
            and failed not aught thereof
            and We caused a river to gush forth in their midst

            And he possessed much wealth

            so he said to his companion, while he disputed with him

            I have greater wealth than you, and am mightier in followers <- Shirk? This is what most people
            https//www.google.com/help/hc/images/sites_icon_arrow_up_small.gif would say. Greater wealth,
            And he entered his garden https//www.google.com/help/hc/images/sites_icon_arrow_up_small.gif knowledge, skills, family etc.
            while he was unjust to himself, He said <- On the issue of justly balanced within ourselves.
            I do not think that this will ever perish <- This is also what most people would say.
            And I do not think the hour will come i.e. not come within the next few hours, days, years etc.
            and even if I am returned to my Lord <- Same, and most people believe they will be in Paradise.
            I will most certainly find a returning place better than this Proof that he believe in Allah and the
            Hour will come, but not in his lifetime.
            His companion said to him while disputing with him

            Do you disbelieve in Him <- Shirk?
            Who created you from dust
            then from a small seed
            then He made you a perfect man?

            But as for me
            He, Allah, is my Lord
            and I do not associate anyone with my Lord <- Who is "anyone" in this story context? Self?

            And wherefore did you not say when you entered your garden
            It is as Allah has pleased, there is no power save in Allah?
            If you consider me to be inferior to you in wealth and children
            Then maybe my Lord will give me what is better than your garden

            and send on it a thunderbolt from heaven
            so that it shall become even ground without plant
            Or its waters should sink down into the ground
            so that you are unable to find it
            And his wealth was destroyed
            so he began to wring his hands
            for what he had spent on it
            while it lay, having fallen down upon its roofs, and he said

            Ah me! would that I had not associated anyone with my Lord
            And he had no host to help him besides Allah
            nor could he defend himself

            Here is protection only Allah's
            the True One
            He is best in (the giving of) reward
            and best in requiting

            And set forth to them parable of the life of this world
            like water which We send down from the cloud
            so the herbage of the earth
            becomes tangled on account of it
            then it becomes dry broken into pieces which the winds scatter
            and Allah is the holder of power over all things

            Wealth and children are an adornment of the life of this world
            and the ever-abiding
            the good works
            are better with your Lord in reward
            and better in expectation

              Therefore our primary question in life is how far we are able to control the ideas within ourselves?

              Shirk in the form of a very fine, the pleasure felt while dzikr, salat or ibada etc, and which motivates us to do more ibada, salat or dzikr etc. It is so because our ibada will not be because of Allah, but because of the excitement performing ibada etc, ie. self. However, this is not necessarily damaging since we will be divided into three groups (567-10). It is just something to be taken into consideration, by those who wish to find the ultimate truth.

              And the soul and Him Who made it perfect
              Then He inspired it
              to understand
              what is right
              and wrong for it
              He will indeed be successful who purifies it
              And he will indeed fail who corrupts it
              (917-10)

              Smart and brilliant people can never know reality and Allah. Because they are too smart.

              http//s12.postimg.org/kyqnw00yh/glass.png

              And rely on Allah
              and Allah is sufficient for a Protector.
              Allah has not made for a man two hearts in his interior.
              (333-4)

              Our glass will first need to be emptied and clean.
              (100% obedience and free from shirk)

              Allah is the light of the heavens and the earth
              a likeness of His light is as a niche in which is a lamp
              the lamp is in a glass
              (and) the glass is as it were a brightly shining star
              lit from a blessed olive-tree
              neither eastern nor western
              the oil whereof almost gives light though fire touch it not
              light upon light
              Allah guides to His light whom He pleases
              and Allah sets forth parables for men
              and Allah is Cognizant of all things

                The key to understand justly balanced is always in the opposite condition (understanding of right and wrong, good or evil etc.), and mostly and mostly attainable at the highest level of condition. For example

                To understand Ar-Rahman (The All-Compassionate) ...
                We must fully understand the condition and "pleasure" of being treated harshly; (0).

                To understand Ar-Rahim (The All-Merciful) ...
                We must fully understand the condition and "pleasure" of being treated cruelly; (0).

                To understand Al-`Adl (The Just) ...
                We must fully understand the condition and "pleasure" of being treated unjustly; (0).

                and so on..

                It was a tough one but only through this process our heart (glass) can become empty and we will rely entirely on Allah (no other option). Otherwise, we are relying on ourselves (ego) or others, not Allah.

                Say He has power to send torment on you <- how Allah guide us to what is just and balance?
                from above
                or from under your feet
                or to cover you with confusion in party strife
                and make you to taste
                the violence of one another
                See how variously We explain the Ayat
                so that they may understand.
                (665)

                Example on the standard required to attain righteousness

                By no means shall you attain to righteousness
                until you spend (benevolently)
                out of what you love
                and whatever thing you spend
                Allah surely knows it
                (392)

                And they ask you as to what they should spend (sadaqah)
                Say What you can spare
                Thus does Allah make clear to you the communications
                that you may ponder
                (2219)

                The recommended method for obedience of the Qur'an is initially through mastering the ibada of fasting (days), sadaqah, reading the Qur'an or dzikr and while doing good to others.

                This is the Book (the Quran)
                whereof there is no doubt
                a guidance to those who are Al-Muttaqun <- The first condition to understand the Qur'an.
                (22) Other than Al-Muttaqun?

                Therefore, first objective = becoming Al-Muttaqun

                Fast "..decreed upon you is fasting as it was decreed upon those before you
                that you may become righteous.." (2183)
                http//api.ning.com/files/uGCxg7sZSOsBbNwvSUN0m6uFBP5OUvR7e-3lYPcnfzzdki1NKdfBKi*MBEzKhhqFLbCaNgzbOCTwHTwBFp0cz3nyqUP-l7F1/arrowDownSmall.png
                Sadaqah "..Take from their wealth a charity by which you purify them
                and cause them increase.." (9103)

                And in no way will you (even) be a guide to the blind out of their errancy
                decidedly you will not make any to hear
                except for the ones who believe in Our signs
                and so they are Muslims (i.e., those that surrender to Allah)

                  hadith = shirk hypno

                  It's obvious but many fail to see it! nope

                  Excellent.
                  22 This is the Book. hence all other books other than Quran belongs to dustbin.
                  7750 Then in what statement (by Bukhari Hadith )after the Qur'an will they believe?

                    Salam jhonsonmustafa,

                    I believe you are reading the ayat out of its context and its true meaning.

                    RED Can you please explain verse 7750?

                    This is the Day of Judgement
                    We will have assembled you and the former peoples
                    So if you have a plan, then plan against Me
                    Woe, that Day, to the deniers
                    Indeed, the righteous will be among shades and springs
                    And fruits from whatever they desire
                    , "Eat and drink in satisfaction for what you used to do"
                    Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.
                    Woe, that Day, to the deniers
                    , eat and enjoy yourselves a little
                    indeed, you are criminals
                    Woe, that Day, to the deniers
                    And when it is said to them, "Bow," (ir'ka) they do not bow
                    Woe, that Day, to the deniers
                    Then in what statement after the Qur'an will they believe? <- relating to those who deny the
                    (7738-50) Day of Judgement? Doing good?

                    ir'ka
                    = Ra-Kaf-Ayn = bowed, bent, incline, humility, humble yourself, lower the head, fell upon his face, stumbled.

                    And I don't understand why are referring to 22.

                    This is the Book about which there is no doubt
                    a guidance for those conscious of Allah
                    (22)

                    Where did Allah say it is shirk to follow what is justly balance?

                    Where did Allah command us to reject signs not in the Qur'an?

                    The risk of reading ayat out of its true meaning or context..

                    Do you covet
                    that they would believe for you
                    while a party of them used to hear the words of Allah
                    and then distort the Torah after they had understood it
                    while they were knowing?
                    (275)

                    Peace brother.

                      "Setting up partners" is not exclusive to the act of "creation". It's the setting up of partners of ANY kind including partners in source of guidance.

                      Hadith should be treated like any essay or article here on free-minds. Otherwise, you're risking setting up partners with God.

                        However, Allah prohibits us to deny what justly balanced (for example, 7738-50 above).

                        To reject what is justly balanced on sectarian basis, is no difference than to be a sectarian itself.

                        It is a religion of Islam, and not a deen of Islam.

                        Therefore, can you give me an ayat that Allah prohibit us to follow what is justly balanced?

                        Can you give me an ayat where Allah command us to reject signs not in the Qur'an?

                          ...
                          From the above, we can see that the Qur'an teaches us how to balance and achieve justice ..

                          Some inconsistent ayats for the religious peoples.

                          And who believe in what has been revealed to you

                            Salam nonplus,

                            I know and I'm rejecting unjust hadith (refer here).

                            However, Allah prohibits us to deny what justly balanced (for example, 7738-50 above).

                            To reject what is justly balanced on sectarian basis, is no difference than to be a sectarian itself.

                            Therefore, can you give me an ayat that Allah prohibit us to follow what is justly balanced?

                            Can you give me an ayat where Allah command us to reject signs not in the Qur'an?

                            Peace brother.

                            hadith != "signs not in the Qur'an"

                            Furthermore, you seem to attach context to many things and somehow make it not apply to you.

                            When God asks, rhetorically, "which hadith do you believe in?" It applies to any and everyone, not just the "non believers of judgement day". How quickly you limited the scope of that!

                            Anyway, I get that I'm new here and this seems to be your thread so I'll refrain from commenting further.

                              hadith != "signs not in the Qur'an"

                              Furthermore, you seem to attach context to many things and somehow make it not apply to you.

                              Salam nonplus,

                              Therefore, can you give me an ayat that Allah prohibit us to follow what is justly balanced?
                              Can you give me an ayat where Allah command us to reject signs not in the Qur'an?

                              Why can't you answer my simple questions and relying on the fallacy of generalization to make your points?
                              Do you have ayats to support your conclusion?
                              Do you really believe in the Qur'an or it is just your assumption?

                              Furthermore, you seem to attach context to many things and somehow make it not apply to you.

                              The difference is between the context what is justly balanced and what is not. You are referring to something that might have the element of justly balanced as unjust. You generalized the issue, as what religious people do, a sectarian. Therefore, you need to give me an authority for your conclusion, an ayat from the Qur'an.

                              hadith != "signs not in the Qur'an"

                              Have you ever read all the hadith, what is its story?

                              Is it all unjust and not related to the signs in the Qur'an? (refer here)

                              Prove it! That everything in a hadith is unjust, and your ibada (salat, fast, zakah, sadaqah, marriage, hajj and even the Qur'an translation etc) is free from any reference to the hadith.

                              It sounds silly and ridiculous, right?

                              I already give you my reason and show how one can distort Allah's words to fit their religious purpose.

                              Do you have ayats to counter my conclusion?

                              The risk of reading ayat out of its true meaning or context..

                              Do you covet
                              that they would believe for you
                              while a party of them used to hear the words of Allah
                              and then distort the Torah after they had understood it
                              while they were knowing?
                              (275)

                              Rather, they have denied that which they encompass not in knowledge
                              and whose interpretation has not yet come to them
                              Thus did those before them deny
                              Then observe how was the end of the wrongdoers
                              (1039)

                                I believe Islam isn't a religion, but a submission to God. Thus, many people may be muslims without ''knowing it''. )

                                  There is some truth in it and many not among the Muslim might be the Believers, and no one knows Allah's plan; Allah said, "Indeed, I know that which you do not know." (230).

                                  Expect the unexpected. )

                                  For Muslim, we just need to focus on our mission .. obedience and human unity.

                                  To each of you We prescribed a law and a method <- Other rules are also from Allah? Good? Bad?
                                  Had Allah willed, He would have made you one nation <- Allah refers to "nation"
                                  but to test you in what He has given you <- What is the test from Allah? Rejection?
                                  so race to good <- Allah considers there is good from another book or sect etc.?
                                  To Allah is your return all together
                                  and He will inform you concerning that over which you used to differ <- Who'll inform? You?
                                  (548) What is our mission?

                                  Peace.

                                    Salam jhonsonmustafa,

                                    I believe you are reading the ayat out of its context and its true meaning.

                                    RED Can you please explain verse 7750?

                                    This is the Day of Judgement
                                    We will have assembled you and the former peoples
                                    So if you have a plan, then plan against Me
                                    Woe, that Day, to the deniers
                                    Indeed, the righteous will be among shades and springs
                                    And fruits from whatever they desire
                                    , "Eat and drink in satisfaction for what you used to do"
                                    Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.
                                    Woe, that Day, to the deniers
                                    , eat and enjoy yourselves a little
                                    indeed, you are criminals
                                    Woe, that Day, to the deniers
                                    And when it is said to them, "Bow," (ir'ka&#363 they do not bow
                                    Woe, that Day, to the deniers
                                    Then in what statement after the Qur'an will they believe? <- relating to those who deny the
                                    (7738-50) Day of Judgement? Doing good?

                                    ir'ka
                                    = Ra-Kaf-Ayn = bowed, bent, incline, humility, humble yourself, lower the head, fell upon his face, stumbled.

                                    And I don't understand why are referring to 22.

                                    This is the Book about which there is no doubt
                                    a guidance for those conscious of Allah
                                    (22)

                                    Where did Allah say it is shirk to follow what is justly balance?

                                    Where did Allah command us to reject signs not in the Qur'an?

                                    The risk of reading ayat out of its true meaning or context..

                                    Do you covet
                                    that they would believe for you
                                    while a party of them used to hear the words of Allah
                                    and then distort the Torah after they had understood it
                                    while they were knowing?
                                    (275)

                                    Peace brother.

                                    Salam Brother,
                                    leave alone 7750 what about 22. When Allah says this is the Book, Then all the books right from schools to rocket science including hadith belongs to dust bin in front of Allah.

                                    Allah says "Can you bring 10 Chapters like this?. All the men and Jinn put together". I dont remeber the Ayath No.

                                        I already asked you this question.

                                        What about 22?

                                        What's it got to do with Allah prohibit us to follow what is justly balanced to humanity?

                                        And I don't understand why are referring to 22.

                                        This is the Book about which there is no doubt

                                        (22)

                                        Where did Allah say it is shirk to follow what is justly balance?

                                        Where did Allah command us to reject signs not in the Qur'an?

                                        Religion of Islam vs. Deen of Islam

                                        Allah prohibits us to deny what justly balanced (for example, 7738-50 above).

                                        To reject what is justly balanced on sectarian basis, is no difference than to be a sectarian itself.

                                        It is a religion of Islam, and not a deen of Islam.

                                        The difference is between the context what is justly balanced and what is not. You are referring to something that might have the element of justly balanced as unjust. You generalized the issue, as what religious people do, a sectarian. Therefore, you need to give me an authority for your conclusion, an ayat from the Qur'an.

                                        Please look at the actual content..

                                        The real issue is whether it is justly balanced to humanity?

                                        and this is the Deen of Islam.

                                        Do not generalize (fallacy of generalization) and view the matter on a sectarian's perspective.. Quranism, Sunni, Shia, Hadither, Wahhabbism, Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism etc. This is religious perspective, a religion.

                                        It doesn't matter if you label yourself as Quranism or Qur'an Alone or whatever it is.

                                        It is still a sectarian, a religion.

                                        It is not the Deen of Islam.

                                        Peace brother.

                                          Islam is not a religion. It is a way of life.
