Quran - The Wahi or Intuition
-
peace,
i was guided to the Book named Quran. i believe in the Book, the words from Allah, the Lord of the worlds. It shows signs within and around me. every-time, when i read, i get new meanings that guide me to my needs. my mentor enlightened me that the guidance is Quran, not the Book.
i slowly start understanding every human is getting the guidance from his Lord knowingly or unknowingly. either we reject the guidance, or feel proud of the guidance as it is our own invention.

peace,
the first time, i read Quran only one thought was in my mind - what is in this Scripture/Veda? so, i read the book fully, it took few months. when i was reading, i had many questions answered. after i finished i felt, "that's all?" i expected more. again, i started reading from the beginning. again new meanings and the beauty is everything related to our life application only.
i do not have belief in God till then. i took the book only to find how to lead a righteous life. everytime, a meaning is understood from the book, it removed a dependence in me.
when i was reading the third time, i felt many verses mainly talking about rejecters suits people around me. sometimes, i felt, many muslims/christians/hindus,etc. around and across are perfectly matching the rejecter verses. i also felt all good things mentioned is for me and bad things to others. when i said this to my mentor, he said, " both is for you, when you read Quran It speaks to you and only about you. so do not think It is talking about others. keep reading this in mind".
Quran reading after this gave more fear and near God...

" both is for you, when you read Quran It speaks to you and only about you. so do not think It is talking about others. keep reading this in mind".
Very wise!
At the same time as verses do indeed talk about others, we need to apply all what it says on particularly ourselves. This is because we are only responsible for ourselves and we are not supposed to judge others. God knows about others and it is not our job to pass judgement on others. It is however the habit of our fearful ego to blame others and divert attention away from ourselves. We judge others and forget ourselves.
In this sense, it is very wise indeed to take all verses as talking about us and our own life. We are after all only and totally responsible for our own deeds and lives.

peace earthdom,
what is hidayah.

Salaam DrGM.
Ooops I misswrote .Actulally the word "hidayah" is an indonesization from Arabic word hadaa or hudan and means guidance in english.
I mean when you reading Quran, the God Al-Mighty gave you guidance when you tried to study it's messages.I'm also felt the same whwn I tried to study Quran more intensive.
Keep on straight path and you will get to the jannah.

why do we need a message? when we need a message? what is the message?
when we deviate from the path of Allah, to bring us in His path He sends us the message. i.e. when we are lowering our status and identifying ourselves with the majority. to make us individuals following only Allah. when the message is received those who repent and seek Allah alone do not fear nor grief. those repent can identify their messengers as their own kin. the messengers live by the verse(s) and are examples.
238 - We said, "Go down from it, all of you. And when message/guidance comes to you from Me, whoever follows My guidance - there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve.
2146 - Those to whom We gave the scripture /message know him as they know their own sons. But indeed, a party of them conceal the truth while they know.
735 - O children of Adam, if there come to you messengers from among you relating to you My verses/message, then whoever fears Allah and reforms - there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve.

God's system - if man adhere God's system he will live in peace. this system is following his own heart. no data he needs to collect for there is no corruption. the laws and rules are individualized. he needs nothing to prove to any one. he only shows the path to others in need.
man made system - if man adhere to man made system he will confront fear, grief, sad, irritation, pride. this system goes against the heart. needs data to make people believe as if it is good, can make corruption. the rules /laws doesn't suit individual but suits the system for ulterior motives.

Fare thee well,
If it is the same word origin as the word hedyeh in Persian (Farsi) it means gift.
I suppose it can be related to that be blessed by God and thus being a gift from Him. That is the best hedyeh you can get. The word is also used as a girl's name in Iran.
God bless you

believing and submission
how do i take? i believe and then submit or submit and then believe?
believing in God first or submitting to God first? how can i believe God who cannot be seen? how can i submit to God without knowing Him?
i see the creations within me and around me with perfectness fulfilling the need, then i believe there is a Creator and Controller. i haven't seen Him. still i believe there is One, righteous belief without compulsion. believing - the Creator will be my Provider, of all my needs. 'believing the unseen is faith'. asking Him to increase the belief in me is my prayer. asking Him and relying only on Him for my needs is a process after seeing the signs from Him that my every need is fulfilled only by Him. this way, i'm starting to know Him. also, in this process i pray i should not have any doubt in Him that He will not provide.
slowly, i am progressed, to submit to Him only in all my needs with the firm belief He has given. then i will be made to submit to Him finally, with firm belief. "submitting with Peace is the seal of belief ". the quantum of belief is measurable only by Him.
if i submit first without believing then it is out of fear or compulsion to the mighty or powerful which i can see by my eyes. that which i can see is not God.
so, i believe first that He will make me to submit finally in Peace.
You are the All-Know'er.

3121 - when you left your household early in the morning, to reinforce the believers in just-war. Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower.
i find this, as one of the qualities of a messenger. he begins his day in the early morning to set out to ascertain the believers in their belief in Allah alone in all their needs. to believe and live a life Allah alone is just war waged. this war is waged towards my ego, pride, knowledge, jealous, etc.,
Allah alone - eg
• no Curer other than Allah alone
• no Provider other than Allah alone
• no Ruler/Boss/Employer other than Allah alone
etc.,

Abraham was tried by his Lord with certain commands, which he fulfilled.
2131
When his Lord said to him, "Submit", he said I submit myself to the Lord of the worlds.What a lovely way to live. Only when I lose my knowledge - accumulated through seeing, hearing, through education, etc. totally, will i be able to surrender, submit to God's commands all my life. God loves me if I am obedient to Him.
I realize that I have to unlearn, uncondition, empty - my learned knowledge, and have a ever ready, open mind to learn and keep learning, receiving fresh, new wisdom/clarity, leading to constant elevation - steps, levels, positions.
First step of reflection/pondering ask a question or question why it is happening - internally in my mind and not aloud.
Second step wait for an answer from the Divine.
Third step When I get a response, sometimes instantly sometimes later, accept, internalise it, wish it, handover to God, ask His help to make that good wish as my life, make me live in that good.
Clarity is born, then I'm made to live it or I live it and then clarity is born.
Once this is fulfulled, it becomes a proof, sign, evidence and i'm elevated to the next.
Everything is made smooth and easy, effortless. Nothing for me to do, only wish for it and be on guard/alert to stay away from wrong doing.When I think - I have to live, I have to do, it becomes a burden/stress/heavy for me.
When I allow Him to do His work without putting myself as an hindrance in His path - by way of my knowledge, pride, jealousy, unjust behaviour, desires, arrogance, stubbornness, fear, doubt - He makes it a smooth transition, baby step by baby step, ever so subtle and gentle.2132
And this was the legacy - total submission to Allah - that Abraham left to his sons, and so did Jacob; "Oh my sons! Allah hath chosen the straight path for you; then die not except as men who are belonging only to Him - His slave".What a great way to live and exit this world and it is possible only with His help. If I believe in Him, He will not allow me to die unfulfilled in any aspect.
in His Obeisance,

evil attracts evil; good attracts good.
if one's heart has evil in it, it observes (see, hear, speak) only evil. if i find a fault in you, it means i have it in me. i will not accuse others only when i am clean of that accuse in me. in other words, if i say, "you liar" it means, i also lie. as there is 'lie' within me, i can identify similar 'lies'.
1041 - Woe to every accuser and mocker
to clean myself, i should repent to my Lord, the Purifier to make me clean from the fault i find in others. so that every fault i find in you i ask forgiveness and repent to the Purifier to purify me. this act comes to end only when this earthly life ends. my Lord is the Purifier, the Acceptor of repentance and the Forgiver.
the day i do not find any fault in others....a 'man' is born again.
