Awareness Of God Opens Doors to Places

You Never Thought You Could Grasp and Existed”
By Sallina Ismail
This is now the time for an Islamic Rennaisance – Awakening Brilliance in The 21st Century. Each one of us and for the benefit of our nation and of the generations to come should move forward towards the upliftment of our intellect being. Man should not just focus on his entirety of being on earth but also focus and seek the realms of spirituality for the attainment of success in the hereafter. Let us all walk on earth as God’s Light illuminating brilliance in all areas of our lives.
The Islamic Rennaisance is a completion of awakening brilliance through spirituality, Prophetic guidance and Light from the Holy Quran. Man should no longer fear to reflect and ponder nor should they depend on what is brought forth from their ancestors blindly without thinking. God gave us the faculty of the mind to think. This Islamic revolution towards spiritual growth is the most important aspect for today’s generation for they should take up their objective in life and a cosmic responsibility in upholding the truth. This is their responsibility to correct and gain adequate knowledge, understanding, guidance, motivation and ability to prevent the manifestation of evil. We have a choice. Good or bad.
"That He might cause Truth to triumph and make Falsehood vain, despite the aversion of the guilty." Quran 8:8
"And say: Truth has come, and falsehood has vanished! Verily, falsehood is ever bound to vanish." Quran 17:81
By consciously aware of God’s presence and gaining knowledge of this life and the hereafter one is able to lead a life in this world pure and holy, peace and harmony and each one of us walks the path of righteousness with a higher faith thus creating a life filled with God’s unfailing abundance. With knowledge, man rise up from poverty to power. God’s gift to each one of us is so unique. Open your mind to large ideas and eliminate the bondage that hold you back towards achieving prosperity in all areas of your life.
IT is now the time to awaken and enlighten our soul rather than locked up into habits of evil. Do not limit your thinking and take actions towards gaining as much knowledge you possibly can within your reach and capabilities. Never stop thinking about the miracles of God’s creation. Never limit your reflection of life. The key to prospering all areas of your life, and what God has for you, is to unlimit your thinking. The way to do that is to give more time in remembering God and to be in quiet seclution with God. Unify your whole being with the vastness of God's rich provision and infinite love.
With Allah, all things are possible beyond grasp. In the silence of your own soul ask for forgiveness and repentance and ask that your thinking and acceptance be greatly expanded. Whatever good you conceive God is always there to fulfill you because God is Power and Might. God is within and around you as an unfailing source of all that is good.
It is the responsibility of all brothers and sisters in remembering Allah and cultivate good thoughts and actions as derived from the attributes of Allah, Love, Beauty, Kindness, Harmony, Order, Justice, Peace. Free ourself from the bondage of evil that is based on hate, greed, war, poverty, laziness, self centered, envy. We must all endeavour to be free from illusions and obsessions of this life.
"And not alike are the good and the evil. Repel evil with what is best, when lo! He between whom and you was enmity would be as if he were an intimate friend. And none are granted this power but those who possess patience and self-restraint, and none are granted it but the owners of great happiness. And if a whisper (incitement or interference) of the Satan should cause thee mischief, then seek refuge in Allah; surely He is the Hearer, the Knower." Quran 41:34-36
O mankind, truly We have created you male and female, and have made you nations and tribes that ye may know one another. Truly the most noble of you, in the sight of God, is the most God-conscious. Quran 49: 13
The rule of this life is you must first prosper in all areas of your life. You cannot help the poor if you are poor, you cannot help those in need if you yourself is in need, you cannot help others to rise from lack to abundance, from war to peace and from hatred to love if you yourself is full of lack. So rise up generations towards power by attaining knowledge. Recite, ponder and contemplate the Holy Quran for in it is full of wisdom and light. You will insyaAllah be the light illuminating brilliance in this life and the hereafter!
Live life lovingly...................sallina
This words are excerpts from the book The Science Of Allah – Secret of Creation by Sallina Ismail.Please forward the above message to all. Let us all rise from lack to power beyond the vastness of infinity because each one of us has a gold mine. Dig it out...Emerge from lack to abundance of knowledge and wonders so that we can help others who are helpless. IF NOT WE THEN WHO???

Women Molestation Results

ezharalhak@gmail.com (egy-son) — Sat, 19 Apr 2008 15:23:40 PDT

Islam has put restraints that protect woman against raping or molestation , In Islam . woman should wear baggy clothes .God says in the Holy Quran in this regard what means " He is nothing but a slave on whom We bestowed favor, and We made him a pattern for the Children of Israel.( Al-Zagraf:89) . Also , a Moslem , be a man or a woman should not look at the charms of each other , the prophet says " lower the gaze of your eye " as looking at woman may lead to bad consequences.
Woman should not use cosmetics outside her house as this also adds to her beauty thus attracting eyes , the prophet says " A woman who goes out putting perfumes commits the sin of a whore " Here Islam wants to protect women against molestation or harassment ." The prophet says " A look at a woman is just like an arrow shot by the devil " , Islam has put ethics and percepts to everything in life . What now is happening in the west is due to the absence of following the straight way of God .
Here is a study from the west that reflects how heavy the debacles and the miseries resulting from putting aside God's percepts , the study says :"As many as one in every four women and one in every six men were sexually molested as children, often suffering higher rates of suicide attempts, substance abuse and marital strife, a new study said. The study is based on research by Kaiser Permanente and the National Centers for Disease Control, who surveyed more than 17,000 health care members from 1995-97. They found that victims - regardless of gender - were twice as likely to report a history of suicide attempts in adulthood. The study, published in the June issue of the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, also found that victims were 40 percent to 50 percent more likely to have marital problems and 40 percent more likely to marry an alcoholic. Until now, most research of childhood molestation has focused on female survivors. Researchers say the study shows sexual molestation has similar effects on both genders and further points to the need for early intervention. ``All of this is unfortunately well concealed by time, shame, secrecy and a social taboo against discussing these matters that have such long- term consequences for health and well-being,'' said Dr. Vincent Felitti, a researcher at Kaiser Permanente. The study shows males perpetrated 94 percent of the abuse against girls and 60 percent against boys. The risk for more severe problems later in life also appeared to correlate with the degree of molestation. Linda Nevarez, a program director for a San Fernando domestic violence and transitional center, sees the effects daily. Many women who have come through the clinic were victims of sexual abuse and turn to men who abuse drugs or alcohol. ``There are problems with trust and intimacy. They connect pain with sex instead of it being pleasure,'' she said. ``For a lot of survivors, one of the negative coping techniques is substance abuse. It's not surprising they would also gravitate to someone, subconsciously, that would also be a substance abuser.'' Carlos Perez-Carillo of Sylmar said the study bears out his experience as a victim of molestation. He said he was abused as a teen and has suffered for years with depression and thoughts of suicide. ``It's awful; it's like an emotional roller coaster,'' said Perez-Carillo, who was not surveyed for the Kaiser study. ``I have met a lot of survivors who have turned to a life of crime, become alcoholics, abused drugs or committed suicide.''

THE MIRACLE OF THE IMMUNE SYSTEM

ezharalhak@gmail.com (egy-son) — Fri, 18 Apr 2008 16:47:12 PDT

Our bodies have enemies, which we are unable to see and may not even be aware
to exist. We also have an army that expertly protects us against all forms of
external threat and is constantly on guard: our “immune system!” You will see in
this film that the intelligence which prevails in this system belongs to Allah.

We fall sick many times throughout our lives. When the events of "sickness"
and "recovering" take place, our bodies become a battleground in which a bitter
struggle is taking place. Microbes invisible to our eyes intrude into our body
and begin to increase rapidly. The body however has a mechanism that combats
them. Known as the "immune system", this mechanism is the most disciplined, most
complex and successful army of the world. This system proves that the human body
is the outcome of a unique design that has been planned with a great wisdom and
skill. In other words, the human body is the evidence of a flawless creation,
which is the peerless creation of Allah.

EATING NON-VEGETARIAN FOOD

ezharalhak@gmail.com (egy-son) — Tue, 15 Apr 2008 17:25:17 PDT

Question:
Killing an animal is a ruthless act. Why then do Muslims consume non-vegetarian food?
Answer:
‘Vegetarianism’ is now a movement the world over. Many even associate it with animal rights. Indeed, a large number of people consider the consumption of meat and other non-vegetarian products to be a violation of animal rights.
Islam enjoins mercy and compassion for all living creatures. At the same time Islam maintains that Allah has created the earth and its wondrous flora and fauna for the benefit of mankind. It is upto mankind to use every resource in this world judiciously, as a niyamat (Divine blessing) and amanat (trust) from Allah.
Let us look at various other aspects of this argument.
1. A Muslim can be a pure vegetarian
A Muslim can be a very good Muslim despite being a pure vegetarian. It is not compulsory for a Muslim to have non-vegetarian food.
2. Qur’an permits Muslims to have non-vegetarian food
The Qur’an, however permits a Muslim to have non-vegetarian food. The following Qur’anic verses are proof of this fact:
"O ye who believe! Fulfil (all) obligations. Lawful unto you (for food) are all four-footed animals with the exceptions named." [Al-Qur’an 5:1]
"And cattle He has created for you (men): from them Ye derive warmth, and numerous benefits, And of their (meat) ye eat." [Al-Qur’an 16:5]
"And in cattle (too) ye have an instructive example: From within their bodies We produce (milk) for you to drink; there are, in them, (besides), numerous (other) benefits for you; and of their (meat) ye eat." [Al-Qur’an 23:21]
3. Meat is nutritious and rich in complete protein
Non-vegetarian food is a good source of excellent protein. It contains biologically complete protein i.e. all the 8 essential amino acid that are not synthesized by the body and should be supplied in the diet. Meat also contains iron, vitamin B1 and niacin.
4. Humans have Omnivorous set of teeth
If you observe the teeth of herbivorous animals like the cow, goat and sheep, you will find something strikingly similar in all of them. All these animals have a set of flat teeth i.e. suited for herbivorous diet. If you observe the set of teeth of the carnivorous animals like the lion, tiger, or leopard, they all have a set of pointed teeth i.e. suited for a carnivorous diet. If you analyze the set of teeth of humans, you find that they have flat teeth as well as pointed teeth. Thus they have teeth suited for both herbivorous as well as carnivorous food i.e. they are omnivorous. One may ask, if Almighty God wanted humans to have only vegetables, why did He provide us also with pointed teeth? It is logical that He expected us to need and to have both vegetarian as well as non-vegetarian food.
5. Human beings can digest both vegetarian and non-vegetarian food
The digestive system of herbivorous animals can digest only vegetables. The digestive system of carnivorous animals can digest only meat. But the digestive system of humans can digest both vegetarian and non-vegetarian food. If Almighty God wanted us to have only vegetables then why did He give us a digestive system that can digest both vegetarian as well as non-vegetarian food?
6. Hindu scriptures give permission to have non-vegetarian food
There are many Hindus who are strictly vegetarian. They think it is against their religion to consume non-vegetarian food. But the true fact is that the Hindu scriptures permit a person to have meat. The scriptures mention Hindu sages and saints consuming non-vegetarian food.
It is mentioned in Manu Smruti, the law book of Hindus, in chapter 5 verse 30"The eater who eats the flesh of those to be eaten does nothing bad, even if he does it day after day, for God himself created some to be eaten and some to be eater."
Again next verse of Manu Smruti, that is, chapter 5 verse 31 says"Eating meat is right for the sacrifice, this is traditionally known as a rule of the gods."
Further in Manu Smruti chapter 5 verse 39 and 40 says"God himself created sacrificial animals for sacrifice, ...., therefore killing in a sacrifice is not killing."
Mahabharata Anushashan Parva chapter 88 narrates the discussion between Dharmaraj Yudhishthira and Pitamah Bhishma about what food one should offer to Pitris (ancestors) during the Shraddha (ceremony of dead) to keep them satisfied. Paragraph reads as follows:
"Yudhishthira said, "O thou of great puissance, tell me what that object is which, if dedicated to the Pitiris (dead ancestors), become inexhaustible! What Havi, again, (if offered) lasts for all time? What, indeed, is that which (if presented) becomes eternal?"
"Bhishma said, "Listen to me, O Yudhishthira, what those Havis are which persons conversant with the rituals of the Shraddha (the ceremony of dead) regard as suitable in view of Shraddha and what the fruits are that attach to each. With sesame seeds and rice and barely and Masha and water and roots and fruits, if given at Shraddhas, the pitris, O king, remain gratified for the period of a month. With fishes offered at Shraddhas, the pitris remain gratified for a period of two months. With the mutton they remain gratified for three months and with the hare for four months, with the flesh of the goat for five months, with the bacon (meat of pig) for six months, and with the flesh of birds for seven. With venison obtained from those deer that are called Prishata, they remaingratified for eight months, and with that obtained from the Ruru for nine months, and with the meat of Gavaya for ten months, With the meat of the bufffalo their gratification lasts for eleven months. With beef presented at the Shraddha, their gratification, it is said , lasts for a full year. Payasa mixed with ghee is as much acceptable to the pitris as beef. With the meat of Vadhrinasa (a large bull) the gratification of pitris lasts for twelve years. The flesh of rhinoceros, offered to the pitris on anniversaries of the lunar days on which they died, becomes inexhaustible. The potherb called Kalaska, the petals of kanchana flower, and meat of (red) goat also, thus offered, prove inexhaustible.
So but natural if you want to keep your ancestors satisfied forever, you should serve them the meat of red goat.
7. Hinduism was influenced by other religions
Though Hindu Scriptures permit its followers to have non-vegetarian food, many Hindus adopted the vegetarian system because they were influenced by other religions like Jainism.
8. Even plants have life
Certain religions have adopted pure vegetarianism as a dietary law because they are totally against the killing of living creatures. If a person can survive without killing any living creature, I would be the first person to adopt such a way of life. In the past people thought plants were lifeless. Today it is a universal fact that even plants have life. Thus their logic of not killing living creatures is not fulfilled even by being a pure vegetarian.
9. Even plants can feel pain
They further argue that plants cannot feel pain, therefore killing a plant is a lesser crime as compared to killing an animal. Today science tells us that even plants can feel pain. But the cry of the plant cannot be heard by the human being. This is due to the inability of the human ear to hear sounds that are not in the audible range i.e. 20 Hertz to 20,000 Hertz. Anything below and above this range cannot be heard by a human being. A dog can hear up to 40,000 Hertz. Thus there are silent dog whistles that have a frequency of more than 20,000 Hertz and less than 40,000 Hertz. These whistles are only heard by dogs and not by human beings. The dog recognizes the masters whistle and comes to the master. There was research done by a farmer in U.S.A. who invented an instrument which converted the cry of the plant so that it could be heard by human beings. He was able to realize immediately when the plant itself cried for water. Latest researches show that the plants can even feel happy and sad. It can also cry.
10. Killing a living creature with two senses less is not a lesser crime
Once a vegetarian argued his case by saying that plants only have two or three senses while the animals have five senses.
Therefore killing a plant is a lesser crime than killing an animal. Suppose your brother is born deaf and dumb and has two senses less as compared to other human beings. He becomes mature and someone murders him. Would you ask the judge to give the murderer a lesser punishment because your brother has two senses less? In fact you would say that he has killed a masoom, an innocent person, and the judge should give the murderer a greater punishment.
In fact the Qur’an says:
"O ye people! Eat of what is on earth, lawful and good" [Al-Qur’an 2:168]
11. Over population of cattle
If every human being was a vegetarian, it would lead to overpopulation of cattle in the world, since their reproduction and multiplication is very swift. Allah (swt) in His Divine Wisdom knows how to maintain the balance of His creation appropriately. No wonder He has permitted us to have the meat of the cattle.
12. Cost of meat is reasonable since all aren’t non-vegetarians
I do not mind if some people are pure vegetarians. However they should not condemn non-vegetarians as ruthless. In fact if all Indians become non-vegetarians then the present non-vegetarians would be losers since the prices of meat would rise.

MUSLIMS ARE FUNDAMENTALISTS AND TERRORISTS

ezharalhak@gmail.com (egy-son) — Tue, 15 Apr 2008 17:24:31 PDT

Question:
Why are most of the Muslims fundamentalists and terrorists?
Answer:
This question is often hurled at Muslims, either directly or indirectly, during any discussion on religion or world affairs. Muslim stereotypes are perpetuated in every form of the media accompanied by gross misinformation about Islam and Muslims. In fact, such misinformation and false propaganda often leads to discrimination and acts of violence against Muslims. A case in point is the anti-Muslim campaign in the American media following the Oklahoma bomb blast, where the press was quick to declare a ‘Middle Eastern conspiracy’ behind the attack. The culprit was later identified as a soldier from the American Armed Forces.
Let us analyze this allegation of ‘fundamentalism’ and ‘terrorism’:
1. Definition of the word ‘fundamentalist’
A fundamentalist is a person who follows and adheres to the fundamentals of the doctrine or theory he is following. For a person to be a good doctor, he should know, follow, and practise the fundamentals of medicine. In other words, he should be a fundamentalist in the field of medicine. For a person to be a good mathematician, he should know, follow and practise the fundamentals of mathematics. He should be a fundamentalist in the field of mathematics. For a person to be a good scientist, he should know, follow and practise the fundamentals of science. He should be a fundamentalist in the field of science.
2. Not all ‘fundamentalists’ are the same
One cannot paint all fundamentalists with the same brush. One cannot categorize all fundamentalists as either good or bad. Such a categorization of any fund amentalist will depend upon the field or activity in which he is a fundamentalist. A fundamentalist robber or thief causes harm to society and is therefore undesirable. A fundamentalist doctor, on the other hand, benefits society and earns much respect.
3. I am proud to be a Muslim fundamentalist
I am a fundamentalist Muslim who, by the grace of Allah, knows, follows and strives to practise the fundamentals of Islam. A true Muslim does not shy away from being a fundamentalist. I am proud to be a fundamentalist Muslim because, I know that the fundamentals of Islam are beneficial to humanity and the whole world. There is not a single fundamental of Islam that causes harm or is against the interests of the human race as a whole. Many people harbour misconceptions about Islam and consider several teachings of Islam to be unfair or improper. This is due to insufficient and incorrect knowledge of Islam. If one critically analyzes the teachings of Islam with an open mind, one cannot escape the fact that Islam is full of benefits both at the individual and collective levels.
4. Dictionary meaning of the word ‘fundamentalist’
According to Webster’s dictionary ‘fundamentalism’ was a movement in American Protestanism that arose in the earlier part of the 20th century. It was a reaction to modernism, and stressed the infallibility of the Bible, not only in matters of faith and morals but also as a literal historical record. It stressed on belief in the Bible as the literal word of God. Thus fundamentalism was a word initially used for a group of Christians who believed that the Bible was the verbatim word of God without any errors and mistakes.
According to the Oxford dictionary ‘fundamentalism’ means ‘strict maintenance of ancient or fundamental doctrines of any religion, especially Islam’.
Today the moment a person uses the word fundamentalist he thinks of a Muslim who is a terrorist.
5. Every Muslim should be a terrorist
Every Muslim should be a terrorist. A terrorist is a person who causes terror. The moment a robber sees a policeman he is terrified. A policeman is a terrorist for the robber. Similarly every Muslim should be a terrorist for the antisocial elements of society, such as thieves, dacoits and rapists. Whenever such an anti-social element sees a Muslim, he should be terrified. It is true that the word ‘terrorist’ is generally used for a person who causes terror among the common people. But a true Muslim should only be a terrorist to selective people i.e. anti-social elements, and not to the common innocent people. In fact a Muslim should be a source of peace for innocent people.
6. Different labels given to the same individual for the same action, i.e. ‘terrorist’ and ‘patriot’
Before India achieved independence from British rule, some freedom fighters of India who did not subscribe to non-violence were labeled as terrorists by the British government. The same individuals have been lauded by Indians for the same activities and hailed as ‘patriots’. Thus two different labels have been given to the same people for the same set of actions. One is calling him a terrorist while the other is calling him a patriot. Those who believed that Britain had a right to rule over India called these people terrorists, while those who were of the view that Britain had no right to rule India called them patriots and freedom fighters.
It is therefore important that before a person is judged, he is given a fair hearing. Both sides of the argument should be heard, the situation should be analyzed, and the reason and the intention of the person should be taken into account, and then the person can be judged accordingly.
7. Islam means peace
Islam is derived from the word ‘salaam’ which means peace. It is a religion of peace whose fundamentals teach its followers to maintain and promote peace throughout the world.
Thus every Muslim should be a fundamentalist i.e. he should follow the fundamentals of the Religion of Peace: Islam. He should be a terrorist only towards the antisocial elements in order to promote peace and justice in the society.

Thus fundamentalism was a word initially used for a group of Christians who believed that the Bible was the verbatim word of God without any errors and mistakes.

According to the Oxford dictionary ‘fundamentalism’ means ‘strict maintenance of ancient or fundamental doctrines of any religion, especially Islam’.

Today the moment a person uses the word fundamentalist he thinks of a Muslim who is a terrorist.

5. Every Muslim should be a terrorist

Every Muslim should be a terrorist. A terrorist is a person who causes terror. The moment a robber sees a policeman he is terrified. A policeman is a terrorist for the robber. Similarly every Muslim should be a terrorist for the antisocial elements of society, such as thieves, dacoits and rapists. Whenever such an anti-social element sees a Muslim, he should be terrified. It is true that the word ‘terrorist’ is generally used for a person who causes terror among the common people. But a true Muslim should only be a terrorist to selective people i.e. anti-social elements, and not to the common innocent people. In fact a Muslim should be a source of peace for innocent people.

6. Different labels given to the same individual for the same action, i.e. ‘terrorist’ and ‘patriot’

Before India achieved independence from British rule, some freedom fighters of India who did not subscribe to non-violence were labeled as terrorists by the British government. The same individuals have been lauded by Indians for the same activities and hailed as ‘patriots’. Thus two different labels have been given to the same people for the same set of actions. One is calling him a terrorist while the other is calling him a patriot. Those who believed that Britain had a right to rule over India called these people terrorists, while those who were of the view that Britain had no right to rule India called them patriots and freedom fighters.

It is therefore important that before a person is judged, he is given a fair hearing. Both sides of the argument should be heard, the situation should be analyzed, and the reason and the intention of the person should be taken into account, and then the person can be judged accordingly.

7. Islam means peace

Islam is derived from the word ‘salaam’ which means peace. It is a religion of peace whose fundamentals teach its followers to maintain and promote peace throughout the world.

Thus every Muslim should be a fundamentalist i.e. he should follow the fundamentals of the Religion of Peace: Islam. He should be a terrorist only towards the antisocial elements in order to promote peace and justice in the society.
