Assalam Alaikum brother,
Hazrat Muhammad (ﷺ) has left for us the Ibni teachings which he used to teach his Companions and I have already given you a verse about
(Suran An-Najm Ayat 1-4)
وَٱلنَّجْمِ إِذَا هَوَىٰ ١
By the stars when they fade away!
مَا ضَلَّ صَاحِبُكُمْ وَمَا غَوَىٰ ٢
Your fellow man is neither misguided nor astray.
وَمَا يَنطِقُ عَنِ ٱلْهَوَىٰٓ ٣
Nor does he speak of his own whims.
It is only a revelation sent down ˹to him˺.
إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا وَحْىٌۭ يُوحَىٰ ٤
You "think" it is a good translation.
So you are basing your understanding on
Bro Aslamoalaikum,
I also read your provide content but I think my Teachers told me right about this topic. And, I also read and learn about Islam in the Islamic Institution.
If you want to know that what is the name of my Institution then here it is, Idara Misbah-ul-Quran Pakistan.
Seems an unusual approach.
Each to their own.
Please see this,
وَمِنَ ٱلَّيْلِ فَتَهَجَّدْ بِهِۦ نَافِلَةًۭ لَّكَ عَسَىٰٓ أَن يَبْعَثَكَ رَبُّكَ مَقَامًۭا مَّحْمُودًۭا ٧٩
And rise at ˹the last˺ part of the night, offering additional prayers, so your Lord may raise you to a station of praise.
1.I found this translation on the Quran.com
I think this is the good Translation.
2.This is the best time for you to find a special place for more and more things to come soon.
Second translation is more better than fisrt. Dawat e Islami
Aslamoalaikum Good Logic,
Are you Believe in the Companions of the Prophet Muhammad(SAW)? If yes, why do you not follow his teachings from the Companions of the Prophet Muhammad(SAW)?
Peace Arneeb Fatima.
Why does GOD only say "Follow the Messenger" and not "Follow the prophet" Or follow Mohammed"?
Messenger = GOD s message.
Then "Messenger changes through the times and Qoran is also called "Messenger but is here to stay until the end time.
O people of the scripture, our messenger has come to you to proclaim for you many things you have concealed in the scripture, and to pardon many other transgressions you have committed. A beacon has come to you from God, and a profound scripture.
يٰأَهلَ الكِتٰبِ قَد جاءَكُم رَسولُنا يُبَيِّنُ لَكُم كَثيرًا مِمّا كُنتُم تُخفونَ مِنَ الكِتٰبِ وَيَعفوا عَن كَثيرٍ قَد جاءَكُم مِنَ اللَّهِ نورٌ وَكِتٰبٌ مُبينٌ
With it, God guides those who seek His approval. He guides them to the paths of peace, leads them out of darkness into the light by His leave, and guides them in a straight path.
يَهدى بِهِ اللَّهُ مَنِ اتَّبَعَ رِضوٰنَهُ سُبُلَ السَّلٰمِ وَيُخرِجُهُم مِنَ الظُّلُمٰتِ إِلَى النّورِ بِإِذنِهِ وَيَهديهِم إِلىٰ صِرٰطٍ مُستَقيمٍ
The profound scripture Qoran is here as a messenger for all of us. All past or future messengers since Qoran will only provide this same message ; To follow only GOD Alone and His guidance.
I find it a blessing to just have Qoran.
Those drawn to Qoran will begin to read/study this book and take it seriously. Then they begin to value the contents. They will not dare follow any other book by another authority.
They will start to comprehend and appreciate how God has designed and structured His final scripture in perfect Arabic.
Then they would never underestimate what God says about His Quran to be divinely preserved for all coming generations, easy to understand( how to lead a better life), straightforward except for allegories, complete, perfect , fully detailed, and consistent without any ambiguity or contradictions.
They would distinguish the difference between truth and falsehood, divine and man-made. They know how deep, awesome, and glorious it is when God says He establishes the truth with His words. This fact instills reverence, humility, and a sense of certainty in their hearts.
Some verses will be absolutely clear to them like this
You shall recite/learn what is revealed to you of your Lord's scripture. Nothing shall abrogate His words, and you shall not find any other source beside it.
Then the journey begins and it will be ongoing. See where GOD takes the seeker with it and GOD Alone will teach what one can bare, benefit and need from it.
May God teach and strengthen those who believe in Him and His words at all times.
GOD bless you.
Peace.
Allah also says in the Quran
قُلْ مَا كُنْتُ بِدْعًا مِّنَ الرُّسُلِ وَ مَاۤ اَدْرِیْ مَا یُفْعَلُ بِیْ وَ لَا بِكُمْؕ-اِنْ اَتَّبِـعُ اِلَّا مَا یُوْحٰۤى اِلَیَّ وَ مَاۤ اَنَا اِلَّا نَذِیْرٌ مُّبِیْنٌ(9)
Say, “I am not the first messenger ever sent, nor do I know what will happen to me or you. I only follow what is revealed to me. And I am only sent with a clear warning.”
So, this verse of the Qur'an shows that the Messenger also brings what Allah tells him through revelation.
Hadiths are also very important like Quran۔
Aslamoalaikum
Allah mentioned many times in the Quran that follow me and also follow the Rasool/Prophet.
قُلْ أَطِيعُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُوا۟ ٱلرَّسُولَ ۖ فَإِن تَوَلَّوْا۟ فَإِنَّمَا عَلَيْهِ مَا حُمِّلَ وَعَلَيْكُم مَّا حُمِّلْتُمْ ۖ وَإِن تُطِيعُوهُ تَهْتَدُوا۟ ۚ وَمَا عَلَى ٱلرَّسُولِ إِلَّا ٱلْبَلَـٰغُ ٱلْمُبِينُ
Say, “Obey Allah and obey the Messenger. But if you turn away, then he is only responsible for his duty1 and you are responsible for yours.2 And if you obey him, you will be ˹rightly˺ guided. The Messenger’s duty is only to deliver ˹the message˺ clearly.” (An-Nur 2454)

Islam is founded upon five core beliefs and practices known as the "Arkn al-Islam" or the Five Pillars of Islam. These pillars symbolize the fundamental obligations that every Muslim must fulfill throughout their life. Each pillar is linked to a specific act or practice that is deemed obligatory for all Muslims. These acts or practices are crucial for spiritual development and serve as a means to establish a deep connection with Allah Almighty and the broader Muslim community.
The Five Pillars of Islam are
In 2024, Ramadan is expected to begin on March 11, and Eid-ul-Fitr is expected to be on April 10, according to Saudi Arabia. However, this is only an estimate, and the actual date of Eid-ul-Fitr may differ by one or two days, depending on the moon sighting in different regions and countries. Therefore, it is important to follow the local announcements and reports of the moon sighting committees and authorities in your area.
Understanding the Significance of the Four Quls
The Four Quls, comprising Surahs al-Nas, al-Falaq, Ikhlas, and al-Kafirun, hold a paramount position in Islamic practice due to their profound messages and accessibility. These concise chapters serve as potent tools for seeking protection, warding off evil, and drawing blessings from Allah SWT. Their simplicity in both content and memorization makes them universally accessible, transcending age, gender, and knowledge levels. Through recitation and reflection upon these surahs, Muslims can find spiritual strength, solace, and guidance in adhering to the tenets of Islam, ultimately leading to a more purposeful and fulfilling life.
Surah al-Nas (Chapter 114 The Mankind)
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
Say, "I seek refuge in the Lord of mankind,
The Sovereign of mankind,
The God of mankind,
From the evil of the whisperer who withdraws,
Who whispers in the breasts of mankind,
Among jinn and among mankind."
Surah al-Falaq (Chapter 113 The Dawn)
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
Say, "I seek refuge in the Lord of daybreak
From the evil of that which He created
And from the evil of darkness when it settles
And from the evil of the blowers in knots
And from the evil of an envier when he envies."
Surah Ikhlas (Chapter 112 The Sincerity)
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
Say, "He is Allah, One,
Allah, the Eternal Refuge.
He neither begets nor is born,
Nor is there to Him any equivalent."
These are the Four Quls of the Quran.
Surah al-Kafirun (Chapter 109 The Disbelievers)
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
Say, "O disbelievers,
I do not worship what you worship.
Nor are you worshippers of what I worship.
Nor will I be a worshipper of what you worship.
Nor will you be worshippers of what I worship.
For you is your religion, and for me is my religion."
Ghazwa in Islamic History
Ghazwa, a term denoting battles from the early years of Islam, holds profound significance in Islamic history. These conflicts, led by Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon Him) and his companions, served multiple purposes, including self-defense, protection of the Muslim community, and the propagation of Islam. Quranic verses such as those in Surah Baqarah emphasize the principles guiding these battles, notably fighting in self-defense and avoiding transgression. The hadith further underscores the value placed on participating in such endeavors for the sake of Allah, highlighting their spiritual importance.
Key Ghazwa Events
The history of Ghazwa during the time of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon Him) offers critical insights into the challenges faced by the early Muslim community. Events like the Ghazwa of Badr, where Muslims faced overwhelming odds yet emerged victorious, and the Ghazwa of Uhud, which underscored the importance of unity and trust in Allah's plan, remain pivotal in Islamic teachings. Additionally, engagements such as the Ghazwa of Khandaq, demonstrating strategic ingenuity, and the Ghazwa of Tabuk, highlighting the test of faith, provide rich lessons for Muslims.
Legacy and Significance
The legacy of Ghazwa resonates through Islamic history, shaping the trajectory of the faith and the Muslim community's identity. These battles symbolize resilience, faith, and the struggle for justice in the face of adversity. The concept of martyrdom, as exemplified in the hadith and Quranic verses, further reinforces the valor and sacrifice associated with Ghazwa. Ultimately, the enduring significance of Ghazwa lies in its role in preserving and spreading Islam, reflecting the enduring spirit of the faith and its adherents.
Understanding Tahajjud Prayer
Tahajjud prayer holds a unique significance in Islam, offering believers an intimate opportunity to connect with Allah during the silent depths of the night. Unlike obligatory prayers, Tahajjud is voluntary but highly recommended for those seeking spiritual strength and tranquility. It serves as a personal conversation with the Almighty, where one can unburden their worries and seek forgiveness. Derived from the Arabic word meaning "to give up sleep," Tahajjud entails rising after the Isha prayer and performing additional rakats in the last third of the night. This act of devotion is deeply ingrained in Islamic tradition, emphasized in the Quran and practiced by Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
Performing Tahajjud Prayer
The process of Tahajjud prayer involves a series of steps aimed at fostering a profound connection with Allah. It begins with awakening in the depths of the night and performing the ritual ablution (Wudu). Finding a serene and clean space, preferably in one's bedroom, one engages in at least two rakats of Salah, with the option to continue as desired. The ideal time for Tahajjud is in the last third of the night, as it is believed that Allah descends to the lowest heaven, ready to respond to the prayers of His devoted servants. After completing the prayer, believers engage in heartfelt supplications (Dua), seeking forgiveness, guidance, and blessings from the Most Merciful.
Embracing the Spiritual Rewards
Commencing the practice of Tahajjud prayer promises a myriad of spiritual rewards and blessings. From increased closeness to Allah to the fulfillment of heartfelt prayers, the benefits are manifold. Through Tahajjud, believers experience the profound peace that comes from intimate communion with the Divine, finding solace in the silence of the night. It is not merely a ritualistic act but a transformative spiritual journey, offering believers the opportunity to transcend worldly concerns and draw closer to the ultimate source of guidance and mercy. Embracing Tahajjud prayer is not only a personal endeavor but also a communal call to spiritual awakening and devotion.
Sajda Sahw, or the Prostration of Forgetfulness, exemplifies Allah's mercy by enabling Muslims to rectify errors, including those in Sajda Sahw, in their prayers, ensuring their acceptance despite human fallibility. This practice underscores Islam's compassionate stance, recognizing and accommodating human forgetfulness and imperfection, even within the act of Sajda Sahw itself. For further guidance on Sajda Sahw, individuals may turn to authoritative Islamic jurisprudence sources or seek counsel from knowledgeable scholars well-versed in the intricacies of Sajda Sahw.
