You are correct, thank you. It is just a translation and I guess the readers can check for themselves through the links I've given. I am more on delivering the message.

Peace

Respected brother, you have taken the verse as a criterion to arrive at a conclusion but not taken the correct understanding. There is a lot of difference between this and that. That refers to what?

Salam,

Does it normal for an ancient Arabs to use that kind of name?

I do not qualify to doubt the acumen of ancient Arabs.

Google translate use modern shape off Arabic while Quran use Classical Quraish dialect.

Lisan ul Arab and Lane Lexicon is the best source perhaps.

I know what are you referring to but as I said, I'm not dwelling in detail or even questioning the word "Book" or "Alif Lam Meem" and its relation to consciousness etc. It is just a simple message for simple understanding, for beginners - title - What is Islam?

PREMISE 1

IF verse is entirely clear
THEN follow that verse
ELSE no one knows its interpretation (ignore the verse)

PREMISE 2

IF it is relating to obedience to Allah and and towards human unity
THEN it is Islam
ELSE it is not Islam
(or sign for troubles)

PREMISE 3

IF one i'qtiqad (creed) to obey all the "DO NOT" prohibitions in the Qur'an
THEN he is a Muslim
ELSE he is not a Muslim

PREMISE 4

IF one i'qtiqad (creed) to follow clear verses and obey all the "DO NOT" prohibitions in the Qur'an
THEN he will belong to the "companions of the right". (with or without faith)
ELSE he will belong to "companions of the left".

PREMISE 5

IF one is free from Shirk (1, 2, 3, and 4)
THEN he will fully benefit from the Qur'an.
ELSE he will not understand/ misunderstood the true message of the Qur'an.

SIXTH RULE
(Sixth Premise)

IF one grasp the true message of the Qur'an.
THEN he will find the straight path.
ELSE he will be deaf, dumb and blind and will never return.

He will have "NO LIFE"
ie. he "cannot benefit" from his lifetime
and "cannot benefit" from his life after death
NO LIFE
but merely "passing his life"
like dreams or nightmares

Those are the ones
who have purchased error for guidance
so their transaction
has brought no profit
nor were they guided
Their example is that
of one who kindled a fire
but when it illuminated what was around him
Allah took away their light
and left them in darkness
they could not see
Deaf, dumb and blind
so they will not return
Or like a rainstorm from the sky
within which is darkness
thunder and lightning
They put their fingers
in their ears
against the thunderclaps
in dread of death
But Allah is encompassing of the disbelievers
The lightning almost snatches away their sight
Every time it lights
for them
they walk therein
but when darkness comes over them
they stand
And if Allah had willed
He could have taken away
their hearing and their sight
Indeed, Allah is over all things competent
O mankind
worship your Lord
who created you
and those before you
that you may become righteous
who made for you
the earth
a bed
and the sky a ceiling
and sent down from the sky
rain and brought forth thereby fruits
as provision for you
So do not attribute to Allah equals
while you know
(216-22)

I know what are you referring to but as I said, I'm not dwelling in detail or even questioning the word "Book" or "Alif Lam Meem" and its relation to consciousness etc. It is just a simple message for simple understanding, for beginners - title - What is Islam?

Salaam,

Verse 21 i.e. 'Alif Lam Meem' (&#1751 is a mirror image of the Sanskrit word to be understood as 'The House'. The verse 22 starts with the word means 'that' referring to The House (i.e. Ka'aba) and the verse alongwith the verse No. 3 (23) may be understood as under

That is the Book no doubts therein, a gift for the immaculate persons who seek to accustom with the unknown and remain persistent with strict discipline and spends out of whatever bounties bestowed upon them.

Let me share with you something interesting about Ka'aba, kindly mull over -

The fourteen meter high pillar (Rukn-e-Yamani) in between the 35 rings of brass fixed on SHAAZARWAAN is seen here live which makes the combination Fourteen Thirty Five (1435). In addition, 10 more dots with one have been made visible upfront, if you strive. There is a lesson in it to imbibe; the symmetry reminds us the date which is called 10-01-1435. The date passed away three days before, giving an alarm bells ?life is no more?; if at all one can survive, the oxygen lies in the archive.

Stop! What do you say; be that as it may, life is eternal; look! I am still alive. 1435 is in any way significant; I don?t understand even a scant; I am not mesmerized, hardly inclined to thrive. I think you have got hypnotised with the number; pretending to be wise, tell me what else is left after 1435, if you can arrive.

Not to blame and not to frown; count it as 10 in a row up and down, what is left is left in the weight; some say it side by side eight; okay! You may call two and four with three and five.

I exhausted my mind but yet to bind what you made me to find, not easy to extract honey from beehive.

Ok! Cool your mind; take a rewind, one more show with a folding drive. Riddle is over wrap the band, one was doer seen by thousand; be a wise remain alive.

who lead easy lives
but they transgress therein
thus the word proves true against it
so We destroy it
with utter destruction

some interesting facts...

Muslim?= King of Solomon -> Jesus = 700 +- years??
(Solomon to Muhammad is estimated around 1700 years +/- ... according to them! eg. Which Jesus?)
Taghut = Jesus -> Muhammad = 700 +- years??
Muslim = Muhammad -> Abbasid/Bukhary = 700 +- years??<- Islam becomes corrupted, the Ummah is paralysed
Taghut = Abbasid/Bukhary -> Present = 700 +- years?? from Muslim, becoming Mushrikeen ... almost all. Europe?

= Present -> 700 + 700 +/- = 1400 +- years since Muhammad.

Muslim?= Present to future... maybe it is the beginning...
Logically, someone needs to fall for someone else to rise.. It is the Sunnatullah.
OR Maybe it is the time for the earth to develop,
and clean up the mess and corruptions. Disaster? Death?
Look around.. I think it's happening, everywhere..
economy, social, political, environments, dry season and earthquakes increasing in frequency.. etc...

Allah knows best... The Al Adl!!

There is no such things as "I want".

Allah is not our slave, we are .. and there is nothing in our ibada is for Allah, it is actually for ourselves, ie. solah, fasting, sadaqah, righteousness etc. It is the deen, our deen, not Allah, and for our benefits. Allah don't need our ibada etc.

Therefore, what is for Allah?

All that we do is for ourselves, and there is nothing for Allah.

Who is Lord?

Isn't He is the One who supposed to be our Lord?

This is the factor that determines the "attain that permanent state of spiritual peace", and it is in conflict with the Sunnatullah, ie. 1 & 1.

Below is the verse 33 of chapter 3 of Al-Quran

(Transliteration - Inna Allaha istafa adama wanoohan waala ibraheema waala AAimrana AAala alAAalameena)

Renowned scholar Mr. Farook Malik has understood the above verse as follows

?Indeed Allah exalted Adam, Noah, the family of Abraham and the family of Imran above all the worlds.?

http//www.islamawakened.com/quran/3/33/default.htm

The terms ? ?exalted? and ?above all the worlds? in the said verse led me to think over again and again. By the Grace of Allah, my efforts did not go in vain. I find a lot of say what poured down of my brain. If I say plain, the worlds refer to our bodily system; thanks to the elements that work in tandem. The four elements out of all actually sing the anthem. To end the mayhem, let me introduce with the exalted element; take a look what are below that I present

Hydrogen ? Adam
Nitrogen ? Noah
Carbon Family ? Aal-e-Ibrahim
Oxygen Family ? Aal-e-Imran

Our bodily machines require nutrients including vitamins to keep us safe and sound. Have a thought what they are made of and how they are bound? If permitted, I may share what I have found. Be careful, you may get astound

Four major nutrients are (i) Water (ii) Carbohydrate (iii) Fat and (iv) Protein. Apart from that we need ?Vitamin?. I hope you got a glimpse what I mean. Look at the structure, how it is seen

(i) Water consisting of Hydrogen (H) and Oxygen (O) i.e. Adam and Aal-e-Imran.

(ii) Carbohydrate consisting of Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H), and Oxygen (O) i.e. Aal-e-Ibrahim, Adam and Aal-e-Imran.

(iii) Fats also consist of Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H), and Oxygen (O) i.e. Aal-e-Ibrahim, Adam and Aal-e-Imran.

(iv) Proteins consist of, Hydrogen (H), Nitrogen (N), Carbon (C) and Oxygen (O) i.e. Adam, Noah, Aal-e-Ibrahim, and Aal-e-Imran.

(v) Vitamins consist of a combination of elements from amongst Hydrogen (H), Nitrogen (N), Carbon (C) and Oxygen (O) i.e. Adam, Noah, Aal-e-Ibrahim, and Aal-e-Imran. Out of the total vitamins, Vitamin B and C are water soluble.

The impeccable principles that Almighty God suggested in His Book all through the ages was utterly misunderstood by the so called sages. They claimed to be the bearer of light, but actually taught us to fight. They never nurtured the soul but made us to resort to foul. They sought to drive the folk to be habitual without any sense; not to find the truth but stick to ritual and nonsense. Science has actually done the tricks, setting aside speculations broken the bricks. We need to understand the embedded pattern, for which we require the insight not a lantern. If we want not to let our efforts go down the drain, we will have to use the brain repeat use the brain.

Salaam!

The external elements are for the external world, different parts, different languages. It might bring focus, excitement etc but will just keep us busy and reaching nowhere. In fact, farther away... just like the above picture and becoming spices pile up in warehouses. No real value or satisfaction. In actuality, we need real foods, lights.

Salaam,

You know limited is what? It is (i) Concrete Knowledge (ii) Conceptual Understanding (iii) Reach
What is unlimited is ? (i) Wish & Speculation (ii) Guess & Conjecture (iii) Argument & Ego (iv) Pretension & Supremacy (v) Lie & Rejection.

Applies to all without exception barring .......................

Iblees
He refused <- Main Premise Disobedience
and was arrogant <- Secondary Premise The God inside ourselves (2543) (4523) (334)
and became of the disbelievers <- Conclusion The main reason why Allah destined certain people to become the disbelievers
(234) Yes, "destined".. because Allah Knower of all things, and no one can fool Allah

And you cannot guide the blind away from their error
You will only make hear those who believe in Our verses
so they are Muslims <- Reason for receiving guidance from Allah, ie. always ready to obey Allah
(3053) Otherwise, no use for Allah to guide them.. waste of time

Now, as a matter of philosophical statement...

This is the self

the number one enemy that's been living in our bodies

our ego or arrogance

(final stage or battle)

We will understand reality once we are able to kill the above monster...

but how can we kill if we can't even realize that he is existed in ourselves?

and it is surely against positivism, nope.. totally not that one.. nope

Surely this is indeed what is the evident trial
(<a href="http//quran.com/37/106">37106</a&gt

Do the people think
that they will be left to say,
"We believe"
and they will not be tried?

But We have certainly tried those before them
and Allah will surely make evident
those who are truthful
and He will surely make evident
the liars

Or do those who do evil deeds think they can outrun Us?
Evil is what they judge
(<a href="http//quran.com/29/2-4">292-4</a&gt

Or do you think that you will enter Paradise
while such has not yet come to you
as came to those who passed on before you?

They were touched by poverty
and hardship
and were shaken
until messenger
and those who believed with him said
"When is the help of Allah ?"
Unquestionably, the help of Allah is near

I believe the true meaning of Islam is not "Submission"
The true meaning of Islam is "Assimilation"

This is so since Allah's commands and prohibitions have its awwaliyah (priority)
it takes time for its implementation
and it has no end or beginning

Looks around and see
How a seed grows into tree
How baby grows into an adult
How a drop of water becoming rivers and oceans
How Allah creates this universe etc...

It all has its steps and takes time to be implemented

Contradictorily, submission will create tension in the society for conflict of human values
Submission will creates sectarianism, religions, conflicts and wars etc
Submission is focusing on compliance and targeting the end or perfection
Submission is religion

On the other hand, "assimilation" are focusing on the value of balance and justice in the society
Assimilation will create peace and harmony
Assimilation is not conformity, and it is not uniformity
Assimilation brings new elements to mix and neutralize other elements
Assimilation has no end, and it has no beginning
It is beauty and perfection, and it is the deen (system of life)
It is the Deen of Islam

mohamad_itani

islam=?
deen=?
iman=?
kufur=?
they all belong to the same group. to know one you must know the other.
this is not about ideology .i will not post the meanings for it is clear in the Quran.
look up KUFUR and the result .
and look up Iman and the results.
then one will know what is islam .
you are right islam does not mean submission.the word in engish does not do the quranic word justice and results in a weak translation.
peace to you all.

David_Saidi

Agreed

The word "Islam" even it has root sad-lam-mim like salam, sallama, but this word has no meaning nor existed in Arabic grammar.
Just like the word YHVH in Hebrew.

Islam is the name of our deen/religion/creed/system (319)

Peace be with you

Objecive To practice the Quran within the next 10-30 years

The formula

It is He who has sent among the unlettered a Messenger from themselves
(1) reciting to them His verses and
(2) purifying them and
(3) teaching them the Book and
(4) wisdom
although they were before in clear error
(62.2)

. . .

The best way to practice Islam is to read and progressively practice the Quran step by step according to its chronological revelation of the Quran. In other words, we need to study and practice Islam in the same way that Allah introduce Islam to Muhammad. Through this process, we can build a complete "TO DO LISTS" and make sure that we have complied with all commands and prohibitions in the Quran. Only then we can grasp the true understanding of the Quran and feel safe that we have fully complied with Allah's minimum requirements.

I believe there is no reason for Allah to blame us when we have followed closely all His commands and prohibitions from the Quran and according to what's within human capabilities.

Allah does not charge a soul except its capacity.
2.286

Allah does not charge a soul except what He has given it.
65.7

These are the verses of Allah
We recite them to you, in truth
and Allah wants no injustice to the worlds
3.108

Indeed, there is for him (Shaytan) no authority over those who have believed and rely upon their Lord.
16.99

And whoever submits his face to Allah while he is a doer of good
then he has grasped the most trustworthy handhold
And to Allah will be the outcome of matters
31.22

And whoever obeys Allah and the Messenger (the Quran)
those will be with the ones upon whom Allah has bestowed favor
of the prophets
the steadfast affirmers of truth
the martyrs and
the righteous
And excellent are those as companions
4.69

And those who have believed in Allah and His messengers (the Quran)
those are the supporters of truth and the martyrs, with their Lord
For them is their reward and their light
57.19

Summary of this process

We need to start with repentance (from obeying Thaghut) and reject sectarianism. (REFER HERE)
Focussing on the Muhkamat (practicality) and ingoring all the Mutasyaabihat (illusion) (3.7). The discussion about "sin", "reward", "heaven", "hell", "sincerity", "what is Allah" and all these kind of things is useless and waste of energy because it does not relate to the "deen" (way of life, practicality..now!). Allah only requires us to believe and ignore all these kind of things. These things cause the Ummah to live in illusion and hindered from progressing in the real world.
Know what a human being is supposed to do, and do it... ie. focussing on the "deen" (way or system of life, ie. practicality, now! and not hereafter) and what's within human capabilities. Ignore all verses that within Allah's prerogatives. We are not God, but human beings. (refer here)
List all the prohibitions from the Quran and practice it in our life. (must comply, all!)
List all the commands from the Quran and practice it in our life. (bonus, do our best!)
Move to the next chapter, only when we have fully completed current chapter.

For example, Allah command us to read the Quran in the first chapter. This is our first assignment. Once we have read and fully understand the first chapter, we can move to the second chapter. Allah commands us to remain strong on the straight path and ignore the disbelievers. In the next chapter, Allah commands us to pray during the night to get the strength and true understanding of His ayat. Then we must vigorously practice what we have learned from His ayat ...and so on. This is how Allah introduce Islam to Muhammad, step by step.

Always remember not to move to the next chapter until we have completed current chapter.

The chronological revelation of the Quran.
