The purpose of life is to build the SELF through the intentions we make. The body dies but the self stays on.

Life in the hereafter is the real life and it will be based on the state of the self.

omeiza how is peace accomplished when you make peace with injustice?? meaning of peace= The absence of war or other hostilities.

Impossible - there can never be a genuine peace as long as there is intended injustice.

But there is peace when a slave accepts a master at heart and becomes a true slave. No person, no matter how good, has the right to dictate or lord over a sane adult.

A Muslim must never accept slavery, at least not at heart. The devil will never stop to wage war on a Muslim until the Muslim accepts to become a true slave.

Islam means complete submission to God.

In our material activities, God does not want a Muslim/Submitter to make peace with injustice. God does not want a submitter to make peace with the present unjust world rulers. God wants a Muslim to fight the present world order until there is justice.

Does Islam mean peace with evil?

Just because Allah created everything doesn't mean he doesn't want peace on earth. Allah didn't make the devil be ungrateful he caused it himself and Allah didn't make the devil promise to mislead mankind so how can you say Allah doesn't want peace on earth, while He didn't make the choices for ibliss and mankind to misbehave? doesn't make sence right.

Look at this verse from chapter An-Nisa79

Whatever of good reaches you, is from Allah, but whatever of evil befalls you, is from yourself. And We have sent you (O Muhammad SAW) as a Messenger to mankind, and Allah is Sufficient as a Witness.

You see that all good comes from Allah but people turn away from him and don't acknowledge Him and that comes with consequenses so even when bad happens to you because of your actions and Allah is the one who punishes you, the punishment is still caused by you.

May be you will understand if I say that Allah does not want the Truth to be compromised with Falsehood.

Iblis is here to live till the end of time and there is wisdom in that. There is no time the earth will be devoid of a Truthful person because there is no wisdom in that.

So the earth is a battlefield between the two oppossing forces.

the one open minded and willing to spend a lot of time studying

To understand God, one needs to understand the self because the quran is addressed to the self.

All human adults have identical hearts at the start. Modification to the heart can ONLY be by the owner and no one else.

SELF GOVERNMENT
A person is a sovereign on his or her own and it is only him/her that can negotiate that sovereignty. To negotiate the sovereignty is to give authority to a person or an institution over oneself. No person has the right to rule without the consent of the ruled. Authority is the right to preside and decide over a group.

Every sane adult is expected to establish an independent self-government and thereby becomes a sovereign on his or her right ? to be in charge of his or her own affairs. A child can not be independent. Sovereignty means self-government.

Human Beings = Homo Sapiens..
They share at least 99.99% identical DNA strain on their genes.. I don't know whether this is 'equal' or not..

It is very clear that genetically, all human beings are not equall - some are even defective. What do we mean when we say that all human beings are equall?

Salaam,

Is your question based on English 'human being' or any specific Arabic word for human being?

Mohammed M. Khan

The question is based on English word 'human being' if it is defined clearly.

Are all human beings equall? If yes - in what sense?

Why do u ask?

In any meaningful discussion the subject matter has to be clearly identified or specified (defined). In all our discussions here, the subject matter is human being hence the need for clear definition.

The challenges in Islam is all about the interaction between one human being and another.

So Seeker of truth, it is neither Waajib nor Haraam. Say it if you like & don't bother if someone else did not say it.

Beautiful and Intelligent questions Tony! In the answers is a bright light of guidance for all. I await the Learned here

Salaam Joe Betik! Do you agree that the theme of the Qur'an is the SELF with reference to Q917-10?

Peace ugur1! This mess is created by the present Education System whereby a child becomes an adult & is still dependent.

They are old enough to fool around but not old enough to be serious about fooling aroung?

Well there are so many competitors for your mind feeding you with misinformation always many of which you correct later.

For a person that is not on the field, even a perfect knowledge of arabic lang. will not help except for the preliminary

So long a person is not living his life dedicated to the truth alone regardless of wishes, he isn't on the field.

Yes! Knowledge is light not a load. Act what you know and it takes you to a new terrain else you are loading your head.
