Well he will just tell you I am WONDERFUL except when I am crazy which is anytime I am overwhelmed by him and kids. Or when he pushes me to kisten to him preach at me. I don't want him to know I am trying to learn about Islam......I don't want him to have the satisfaction......
Thank you for your post. I plan to finish reading the Koran and I will come here with questions.....
But here is one for you.....if christianity is wrong...and I have prayed for the truth....explain how then would I dream of demons and ghosts and in response to them form a cross with my hand and repeat The Psalms and they then isappear? I sometimes feel that God is telling me christianity is the path? My husband tells me the devil is doing that to me......I have these dreams frequently. Can God not guide us thru dreams?
By the way, I do not stand in the way of him teaching the children Islam. My 5 year old can recite 13 Aayahs....my 3 yr old 5 aayahs.
Hello,hope you are doing fine inschallah,
Well curiosity is a sign of ones youth and children with their bright and hungry eyes are the best witnesses of that ,mashallah may allah swt protect your children.
I am personaly far from being a dream interpreter,and what id to suggest to you may be less extravagant at first sight but is really worth a second tought i believe,because what if the other 6 billion persones did not have the same dreams?does that mean they won`t have access to the divine mercy?would we go as far as to say that God allmighty in his infinite wisdom and justice has failed to make it accessible to all his creatures and afterwards punish them for that!(god forbid!astarfirullah),and how can we prove to the whole humanity with our instinctive sense of compassion and sharing our dream to be a true guidance?!
We can not control our dreams in the same way we can not be eye witnesses any longer of the many miracles that were performed by the prophets of god may Allah swt be pleased with them all.
To be truly guided one needs to make use of Allah swt innate gift to him as a rational thinking creature,he should be able to think intelligently,to reflect deeply,to asses objectively and to decide reasonably what teachings comprise for him the best guidance to follow.
Allah swt sent prophet Muhammad S.A.W as a universal messenger to mankind,giving them glad tiding and warning them against sin(Glorious Quran 34:28)he sent him to perfect all moral values and to serve as the best example for mankind to follow,he came S.a.w in an era where the entire world had forsaken the path of piety,rightousness and and truth, just like it is today he and his teachings reemerge and are still ever present, causing controversies ,attracting the attention,impacting the news and the headlines throughout the world!!!in a world where the monopole of wealth is being shared among a minority of individuals and lobbies alhamdulillah that is a good sign no brainer!
As i said he came during an era of Darkness,reliance on superstition,multiplicity of of conflicts of beliefs and inhuman practices,that shaped the lives of men and women to enlighten the whole world with Allah swt teachings.
An unletterd man signifies that the prophet S.A.W could never have been the author of such a magnificient masterpiece like the Holy Quran,unequaled and unrivaled,in the rich and eloquent Arabic literature until this day The challenge is open!( Holy Quran 2:22,23),a book that could never be,the creation of human mind ,but that was meant to change human tought and the shape of human history forever, and continues to to so until this day .
The companions of the prophet S.A.W his closest friends and relatives knew him,they were near him,observing him in every gesture and analizing every word reaction he had in the face of various situations,they would never have,believed,sacrificed,everything to follow him if they had not witnessed in him the qualities and charisma of a prophet of god and the noble purpose of his teachings and behaviour,they would never have endured,the harshness ,the persecution,the suffering,the poverty the loss of wealth and hunger they went trough,if they did not observe in the message he was uttering ,something which was beyond human capacity, a divin message!
See an analytical view upon prophets Muhammad prophethood"WHO Wrote The Quran
here:
http://75.126.222.101/data/en/ih_books/signal/en_Who_Wrote_The_Quran.pdf
During the liftime of the prophet,the companions had memorized the whole Quran, after his death the rightly guided sahaba uthman ibn affan R.A ,ordered the production of the first copy of the Quran that is still to be witnessed today in Topkapi museum in istanbul and another copy is preserved in tachkent!.
Therefore we will have to agree that the Quran is a book
Sui Generiswithout doubt the best preserved book of the late antiquity,if you use the search option here on TTi you can see pics from the original Quran of 1400 years ago!where every word ,every letter ,hasn`t changed,and is completely identical to the one we have today!
Am sure you and i can agree upon the fact, that we have a creator,our logic tell us that if there is a creation there is a creator,if this magnifiecient creation is set in such a perfect and balanced manner and governed by laws of physics and mathematics that we did not create on our own than there has got to be some supreme being that has created it! this creator has to be unique not like anything we have seen isn`t it?
We see everything around and in us have a purpose,every single part of our body alone has a purpose and a function ,that we did not create!they were given to us at some point isn`t it? So how could we humans as a whole have no purpose see what i mean?and how are we to know anyways if our purpose as a whole if it is not given to us from somewhere?we take care of our bodies and alhamdulillah we are doing fine, but why are we still talking about this matter right at this moment!why are you ,and why am i searching to know more,do we dare to think that we are more than,a simple combination of molecules and atoms connected to each other that are meant to accomplish some meaningless robotic functions.
The creator the one that gave it`s purpose to anything we are sourounded by is it possible that he would have planned for us no purpose but to eat drink dance and chill!
We know the purpose of plants,of mountains,the purpose of the rain and the sunlight,through the intelligence given by our creator ,but what would the purpose of our intelligence?is it possible for the brain to examine the brain!, again we use our intelligence as a tool to discover,understand and classify things,but why!!!!!!!!and there you go cool down Jameel before you end up in a psychaitric clinic for elders at such a young and pretty age you handsome you! logic cruches against it`s own logic and fall down like superposed card puzzle!Heeeeeeeeeeeelp am losing my Capital others are going to start thinking for me,does that mean they are going to be using my brain,and all the functions it commands too.you know like the one that says Jameel go to the bathroom,stutter,and what if the :salam2: persons using my brain where drug addicts what if they were,some star academy David beckam or Mac donalds fans!Enough with Irony!
AS Albert einstein truly stated
"science without religion is nothing, and religion without science is lame "Alhamdulillah in Islam we have both,the prophet of islam S.A.w has made the search for knowledge a must (a form of worship)for every muslim! before Einsteins parents haven`t even ordered him yet.
Both of us have reached our limits,we engage in a vicious and a doubt increasing adventure of circular thinking,and no matter how smarter we cqan try to get on each other,none of us will resolve this enigma,unless the creator in his mercy and infinite compassion can tell us about our purpose isn`t i?,.He would naturally give us some indication of what is good and what is bad for us,as he the knower of all things is more likely to know about us more than we do isn`t it,and above all he would let us know what he intends for us to do and not necessarily what we would want him to tell us to do.therefore we need some knid of what is called a revelation ,that we would be able to understand through a messenger.But the thing is am having a little doubt here in fact anybody could claim to be a messenger for some sort of benefit isn`t it?This means there must be irrefutable evidence ,to determine without doubt the messenger is he who he claims to be,for us to accept the message,he proposes as a divine revelation.Something beyond human ability to achieve would be necessary for us to stabilize without doubt the integrity of the messenger isn`t it?
We would need some kind of proof that would stand the test of time,the evidence we have to continue existing in it`s original form without alteration or variation to the text until the end of humanity,the messenger should bring a revelation to the man in a clear form and it would need necessarily to be in existing language,to be able to verify it at any point in time isnt it?
Therefore a language in it `s original form and that still exists today to avoid any sort of misinterpretation ,Verification of the revelation must be available and,understandable,testable at any given time and for everyone to see isnt it?
Ongoing discoveries,independent of the revelation itself should continue to bring a proof to consolidate claims within the revelation . allhamdulillah

http://www.islamicity.com/Mosque/aboutislam.htm
And also this:[yt]noH6xUQlC7w[/yt]
let us examine now some,irrefutable point which are really valid i think ,for you to wanna use your precious time and learn about this humble man the Last messenger of god Muhammad S.A.W:
1.Muhammad S.A.W was an illeterate man unable to read or write,and remained like that till his death,among his people he was known as the trustwothy,before the revelation he had no prior knowledge of older scriptures,yet the quran and the hadeeth tell us about events present in the thorah (of moses Pbuh) an injil(of jesus Pbuh),in great detail and even proven to be with greater accuracy,according to the latest archeological ,and historical findings(see maurice bucaille on the pharao Minephta the one that dealt with moses(pbuh) or ,the city of qumaran,that before moses there were no Pharaos in Egypte but kings and the bibles faill to differantiate for example...etc).for the first forty years of his life the prophet has shown no sign or desire to have planned to start a prophetic carrier.
2:Muhammad S.A.W also foretold everything that would occur to him and his community of victory,removal of the oppressive king of persia and Cesar and the establishment of the religion of islam and it`s spreading throughout the earth,the evnts occured exactly as the prophet foretold ,as if hje was reading from an open book!
3.Muhammad S.A.W also brought an Arabic Quran that is the peak of ,eloquence and clarity it challenged those eloquent and fluent Arabs of the time,to produce just one chapter like it!today 1400 year after the challenge is still open !!!!!
4-The life history of the prophet of islam the perfect example of being upright,truthfull,generous,brave,merciful,kind,asketic in worldly matters,patient and minding only for the rewards of the hereafter,in all actions and deallings he was mindful of god.
5-Allah swt has instilled great love for the prophet,in the hearts of those who believe in him and met him ,this love has reached such a degree that any of his companions would willingly sacrifice his or herself mother or father for himtill today those who believe in him honour and love him,would ransom their own familly their wealth to see him ,even if but ones.
6-all of history have not preserved the life of a persone in this detail,who is the most influential man in human history as a whole,nor has the entire earth known of anyone with this impact on the masses.Every morning and evening troughout the day he is thought of by those believe in him,greet him and Ask Allah swt to bless him with full heart and love for him.
7-nor has there being any single man on earth who is still followed in all his gestures and doings by those who believe in him even to the point of his way of sleeping ofd,eating,repating the same words he used to say when he greeted,or left or entered the house,left or entered the bathroom,the mosque,drin,king,dressing,travelling riding....etc
8-There has never been any one who has and is being followed by individuals of all races and colors ,cultures,many of those who followed,fol and still will be following him were previously hindous,jews christians,pagans ,communistes,capitalistes,feminists,agnostics...etc yet they are know brothers and sisters,as simple as that regarless of status or wealth,Read the book "
Road to mekka"By Muhammad Asad (rahimahoullah)
9-Nor is it of the ability of a single human being by himself to place a law based upon justice,equality,mercy and objectivity for all human activity on earth,all spheres of human activity like buying selling,marriage divorce,renting ,testimony,custody,he spread teachings regarding charachters and manners towards ones parents ,relatives,friends,guests,familly humanity,animals,plants..etc it is impossible for a single human being to come up with all of this from his own mind no matter how intellectually well in doubt they might be.
I leave you with this for now,inschallah you will find some kind of benefit in this links i gave,everything right that i said is from allah swt,everything wrong is from me ,i ask the forgiveness of Allah swt for that.
Ps.here are a couple of verse for you ,please ponder about them ,do not tell me what you think,keep it for yourself,please !!!:
Genesis 17:3"and Abraham fell down on his face and prayed
Exodus 34:8And moses made hast,and bowed his head toward the earth and worshiped"
Matthew 26:39" and he (jesus) went a little further and fell on his face and prayed..."
Best regards May Allah swt bless you and you familly and guide us all inschallah
