Allah! There is no God save Him, the Alive. He does not die and He is not evanescent; He is the Eternal, the Self-subsistent Who has no beginning.
Verse 3:3 says:
He has revealed unto you O Muhammad the Book, the Quran. He sent you The great Angel, Gabriel with the True Scripture in order to show truth from falsehood, confirming, corroborating Allah's divine Oneness that which was revealed before it of scriptures, even as He revealed the Torah in one go to Moses the son of Emran and the Gospel in one go to the Jesus the son of Mary.
Verse 3:4 says:
Aforetime, before Muhammad and the Quran, for a guidance to mankind, as a guidance from error to the Children of Israel; and He has revealed the Criterion of right and wrong. He revealed the Quran to Muhammad in installments to differentiate the lawful from the unlawful.
Lo! those who disbelieve the revelations of Allah, Muhammad and the Quran, for them awaits a terrible chastisement in this world and in the afterlife. Allah is Mighty, powerful in His vengeance, He is able to requite the wrong and He is able to carry His vengeance out on them. In other words, Allah is victorious in His affair, so that nothing can prevent Him from effecting His promise and His threat; Lord of Retribution, with a severe punishment for those that disobeyed Him, the like of which none can do.
Verse 3:5 says:
Nothing, no existent thing, whatever is hidden in heaven and earth from Allah, on account of His knowledge of universals and particulars. Allah specifies them [heaven and earth] because sensory perception does not go beyond these.

He it is Who forms you in the wombs as He will, as males or females, white, black or otherwise, short or tall, pretty or ugly, felicitous or damned etc.. There is no god, there is no fashioner or creator save Him, the Almighty, in His Kingdom, Who is vengeful against whoever does not believe in Him, the Wise, in all of His actions.

We've moved so far away from the historical principles of most religious teachings. The ego has taken the discussion out of the esoteric and put it on the exoteric or externals and therein we've missed the major nutrients of the spirit.
Menorah pendants are very popular with those involved in the Jewish faith as a result of the importance of the menorah itself in Jewish culture and religion. The menorah is one of the oldest symbols of Judaism, with history dating back thousands of years. The standard menorah is a seven-armed candle holder that is used year round in religious ceremonies. It is so prominent in Jewish culture that it is also depicted on the emblem of...
After spending two years walking with Canadian crutches, and then a walker for a few years, I look at stairs and ramps with all sorts of mixed feelings.
Over the next months I am going to be sharing the complete story of what it was like for me growing up as a Jehovahs Witness. A lot of this content was written over a year ago, as I came to terms with what my beliefs actually meant. obviously I have changed names to protect the trusting, and the not so innocent. My story isn't that unusual, in reality a large number of witnesses will go thru similar eventualities. I am hoping the choice to share this will on some level help s...
Eighteen different Biblical versions give many varied and wrong translations when translating " foreign woman" and " the stranger who flatters with her words" In the entire Quran, the term "foreign woman" is not mentioned therein; all women are equal in respect to their rights and responsibilities regardless of race, color, location etc.

What are the “basics” of Christian living – the most foundational activities and disciplines that God wants in our lives? For a long time, I believed that Bible study and memorization, prayer, fasting and attending church were high on that list. But is that what the Bible teaches? Or is there more?
The Canadian Professor Gary Miller, Toronto University, said: "How could Muhammad possibly have known for sure that Abu Lahab would fulfill the Quranic revelation if he (i.e., Muhammad) was not truly the messenger of Allah? How could he possibly have been so confident as to give someone 10 years to discredit his claim of prophethood?
Abu Lahab said unto the Prophet Muhammad: ‘May you perish, is this why you have summoned all of us here?’ Then, the Prophet threatened him with the chastisement in the Hereafter. However, he said, ‘If what my brother’s son says is true, then I shall ransom myself from it with my wealth and sons!’
In spite of his office of Prophethood, Muhammad was a very gentle and lovely person. With all the severity and seriousness of his function, his company was neither boring nor dull and uninteresting, like that of most ordinary religious leaders, but was full of pleasant and charming humour. He often smiled and joked with his companions and laughed with them.
Dr Gary Miller said: "The only answer is that he was Allah's messenger; for in order to put forth such a risky challenge, one has to be entirely convinced that he has a divine revelation." And it was actually Abu Lahab's story that made Dr Gary Miller become Muslim.
The Prophet Muhammad said to his tribe: I am a Warner sent to you against a tremendous chastisement’. I have nothing in my possession which will save you from Allah’s chastisement nor can I promise you any share from this world unless you say: there is no deity except Allah’.
In Hadith, the Prophet Muhammad says that: "When a man dies, all of his deeds are terminated except for three types: an ongoing charity he leaves behind, a knowledge given by him from which others benefit, and a virtuous son who prays for him and asks for forgiveness on his behalf."
The reason that one continues to receive rewards for deeds even though they are done by other people, is that he had initiated them during his life or contributed to them to a certain degree, whether little or large. Since Allah does not neglect an atom's weight of deeds, He records these contributions for a person even after his death.
Some people say that the deeds of a human being end with his death. However, the Prophet Muhammad says in Hadith that all of his deeds are terminated except for three.
