Devout Jews are our brothers, who hold to a sincere faith of the oneness of Allah, and entrusted to us by him

Almighty Allah created the entire universe and everything in it from
nothing. All living things in this world are born and die, and
everything has an allotted life span. There is nothing in the universe
that will not cease to exist nor any living thing that is immortal. As
revealed in the Qur'an, Allah is the First and the Last (Surat
al-Hadid, 3). He has no beginning and no end. Allah, Lord of the
Worlds,is the lord of all infinity and above time and space. He
existed before all things and will exist after them.
Everything that lives will one day cease to live and return to the
earth. The universe will one day come to an end. It is our Almighty
Lord Who is immortal and Who willexist for ever. Infinity lies in Him
alone.
Allah, the Creator of the entire universe, living orinanimate, is the
"Hayy," He Who is always alive, Who controls all things at all
moments, the omniscient, the all-powerful, He Who is unfettered by
deficiency.No servant has any power to do anything unless Allah so
wills, and cannot remain in this world for a second longer than Allah
wills. Almighty Allah reveals in the verses of the Qur'an that there
is no other god than Him:
Your God is One God. There is no god but Him, the All-Merciful, the
Most Merciful. (Surat al-Baqara, 163)
Allah bears witness that there is no god but Him, as do the angels and
the people of knowledge, upholding justice. There is no god but Him,
the Almighty, the All-Wise. (Surah Al 'Imran, 18)
Allah says, "Do not take two gods. He is only One God. So dread Me
alone."(Surat an-Nahl, 51)
Say: "He is Allah, Absolute Oneness." (Surat al-Ikhlas, 1)
He is Allah. There is no god but Him. Praise be to Him in this world
and the Hereafter. Judgment belongs to Him. You will be returned to
Him. (Surat al-Qasas, 70)
Islam is a monotheistic faith. Muslims with a sincere devotion to
Allahbelieve, as required in Islam, IN THE ONENESS OF ALLAH, THAT HE
IS THE SOLE LORD of the earth and sky and all that lies between, and
that THERE IS NO OTHER CREATOR THAN ALLAH . According to the Qur'an,
those whoascribe equals to Allah, who slander Him saying that Allah
"had a son," (surely Allah is beyond that) or who fail to properly
appreciate His might are making a terrible error. Allah reveals the
position of such people in the Qur'an:
They say, "Allah has a son." Glory be to Him! Heis the Rich Beyond
Need. Everything in the heavens and everything on the earth belongs to
Him. Have you authority to say this or are you saying about Allah what
you do not know? (Surah Yunus, 68)
And say: "Praise be to Allah Who has had no son and Who has no partner
in His Kingdom and Who needs no one to protect Him from abasement."
And proclaim His Greatness repeatedly! (Surat Al-Isra', 111)
But those who believe have greater love for Allah. If only you could
see those who do wrongat the time when they see the punishment,
andthat truly all strength belongs to Allah, and that Allah is severe
in punishment. (Surat al-Baqara, 165)
The Oneness of Allah in Judaism:
Devout Jews, sincerely devoted to Allah are, according to the Qur'an,
our brothers entrusted to us by Allah. Muslims have a responsibility
to protect the People of theBook and establish a climate of peace and
security throughout their lives. That is because they have a truefaith
in Allah and believein His Oneness.
Judaism is a divine faith that adheres to Oneness of Allah as
described in the Qur'an. In Islam and Judaism the Oneness of Allah is
expressed by the word "ahad," meaning "singleness." Just like Muslims,
Jews express the "Oneness" of Allah in their prayers. Devout Jews are
our brothers who believe in the Oneness of Allah, scrupulously avoid
ascribing equals to Him, praise Allah with all theirhearts and believe
in theexistence of the Hereafter, the prophets, Paradise and hell with
all their hearts. The powerful bond of love and brotherhood between
the worthy Rabbi Menachem Froman, who has been to Istanbul as Adnan
Oktar's guest, and AdnanOktar himself is one of the finest
manifestationsof this. As Almighty Allah has promised, the stronger
this union grows, the stronger belief in Allah will become and
eventually rule the entire world.
The Oneness of Allah is described as follows in the Torah:
I am the Lord, and there is no other; apart from Me there is no God…
so that from the rising of the sun to the place of its setting men may
know there is none besides Me. I am the Lord, and there is no other.
(Isaiah, 45:5-6)
…I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like Me.
(Isaiah, 46:9)
So that all the peoples ofthe earth may know thatthe Lord is God and
that there is no other. (1. Kings, 8:60)
"Turn to Me and be saved, all you ends of the earth; for I am God, and
there is no other. (Isaiah, 45:22)
This is what the Lord says: …'Surely God is with you, and there is
noother; there is no other god.' (Isaiah, 45:14)
The Lord our God, the Lord is one. (Deuteronomy, 6:4)
O Lord; no deeds can compare with Yours. All the nations You have made
will come and worship before You, O Lord; they will bring glory to
Your name. For You are great and do marvelous deeds; You alone are
God. (Psalms, 86:8-10)
"O Lord Almighty … You alone are God over all the kingdoms of the
earth. You have made heaven and earth. (Isaiah, 37:16)
… so that all kingdoms on earth may know that You alone, O Lord, are
God. (Isaiah, 37:20)
This is what the Lord says your Redeemer, Who formed you in the womb:
I am the Lord, Who has made all things,Who alone stretched outthe
heavens, Who spread out the earth by Myself. (Isaiah, 44:24)
Since ancient times no one has heard, no ear has perceived, no eye has
seen any God besides You, Who acts onbehalf of those who wait for Him.
(Isaiah, 64:4)
For this is what the Lord says— He Who created the heavens, He is God;
He Who fashioned and made the earth, He founded it; He did not create
it to be empty, but formed it to be inhabited— He says: "I am the
Lord, and there isno other." (Isaiah, 45:18)
… Who foretold this longago, Who declared it from the distant past?
Was it not I, the Lord ? And there is no God apart from Me, a
righteous God and a Savior; there is none but Me. (Isaiah, 45:21)
"See now that I myself am He! There is no god besides Me. I put to
death and I bring to life, I have wounded and I will heal…
(Deuteronomy, 32:39)
… so that you may know there is no one like the Lord our God. (Exodus, 8:10)
"O Lord... there is no Godlike you in heaven aboveor on earth below.
(1 Kings, 8:23)
Then Asa called to the LORD his God and said,"LORD, there is no one
like you to help the powerless against the mighty..." (2 Chronicles,
14:11)
I, even I, am the LORD, and apart from me thereis no savior. (Isaiah, 43:11)
There is no one like you, O LORD, and there is no God but you, as we
have heard with our own ears. (1 Chronicles, 17:20)
There is no one holy [a] like the LORD; there is noone besides you;
there is no Rock like our God. (1 Samuel, 2:2)
His wisdom is profound, his power is vast. Who has resisted him and
come out unscathed? (Job, 9:4)
For you are great and domarvelous deeds; you alone are God. (Psalms, 86:10)
Praise him for his acts of power; praise him for his surpassing
greatness.(Psalms, 150:2)
You alone are the LORD. You made the heavens, even the highest
heavens, and all their starry host, the earth and all that is on it,
the seas and all that is in them. You give life to everything, and the
multitudes of heaven worship you. (Nehemiah, 9:6)
They will say of me, 'In the LORD alone are righteousness and
strength.' (Isaiah, 45:24)
You were shown these things so that you might know that the LORD is
God; besides him there isno other. (Deuteronomy,4:35)
... Is there any God besides me? No, there is no other Rock; I know
not one." (Isaiah, 44:8)
The Alliance among All Believers in Allah Will Prepare a Glorious
Ground for the Time of Hazrat Mahdi (as)
The alliance to be established between all those who truly believe in
the existence and Oneness of Allah, the Hereafter, the Day of
Judgment, the prophets, the angels and Paradise and Hell will
eliminate allthe vile activities of atheism, Darwinism and
materialism, which are all opposed to belief in Allah, and will
further strengthen believers. By Allah's leave, the coming of Hazrat
Mahdi (as) is close at hand. This blessed period will be one in which
Allah's name will be remembered as One and Only in the entire world.
As this holy time approaches, we must prepare the way for the coming
of Hazrat Mahdi (as) as the vanguard of his time and strive to spread
and strengthen belief in Allah across the world. And to that end, we
must all act as one. Certainly, Allah is He whostands in need of
nothing and does what He wants when He wants. The efforts to be made
by all believers to strengthen faith in Allah is an excellent prayer.
There is no doubt that Almighty Allah is He who will keep His promise.
Muslims' call to the People of the Book, they who believe in the one
Allah, is revealed thus in a verse:
Say, "People of the Book! come to a proposition which is the same for
us and you – that we should worship none but Allah and not associate
any partners with Him and not take one another as lords besides
Allah."(Surah Al 'Imran, 64)

My daughter and the inaccessible fort

Like a wonderful butterfly and a beautiful flower, she joyously moves
here and there, creating an atmosphere of happiness and pleasure.
Whenever I see her, my heart and eyes fill with great delight. Once,
she had a fever because of a sore throat -- a common childhood disease
-- which made her little body become feverish. Her temperature kept
rising until it reached about 41 degrees. Rushing to the doctor with
five-year-old Suhaylah, her mother did not stop supplicating Allaah
The Almighty for her and reciting Sharee'ah-approved Ruqyah
(supplications for healing) and invocations for her sick child all the
way in the car. Suhaylah was mumbling deliriously because of her high
fever. What did she say during these moments of delirium? She was
saying, "Recite the Quran for me! Recite the Quran for me! Whoever
loves me let him recite the Quran for me!"
Did this young girl realize that the Quran is her resort during such a
hard time and her fort where she seeks protection?
Many of us may have faced a similar situation where the sick or
fevered child in particular recites Quranic verses or urges those
around him to recite for him as Suhaylah did.
What are the implications relatedto a sound upbringing in this situation?
1- Responsibility of engraving on the hearts of children:
One of the strongest indications in this situation is that the
heartsof children are so pure and so quickly affected and ready to
receive what adults inculcate in them. Hence, the responsibility
ofadults before Allaah The Almightyis great. The Prophet said: "Allaah
will ask every caretaker about everything that was entrusted to him,
whether he preserved it or wasted it."
Imaam Al-Ghazaali said,
The child is a trust with his parents and his pure heart is a precious
jewel that is free from any inscription or image. He is ready to learn
anything that he is taught and to incline to what people around him
incline to. If he is accustomed to doing what is good, he will
continue to do what is good and will be happy inthis worldly life and
the Hereafter. Everyone who taught and participated in raising him
will share the reward with him. Ifhe is accustomed to doing what is
evil and is neglected like animals, he will be miserable anddoomed.
The caretaker and guardian will bear the sin. No matter how important
discipline is to preserve the child from the fire of this worldly
life; it is worthier for the caretaker or guardian to preserve the
child from the fire of the Hereafter by refining and disciplining him.
The behavior, interests and appearance of the child are a result of
the upbringing of parents. For scholars of Islamic upbringing and
ethics, it is an unquestionable fact that the child is born with a
sound innate inclination to Tawheed (Islamic Monotheism), the creed of
belief in Allaah The Almighty and the original state of purity. If an
atmosphere of sound upbringing at home, righteousness in societyand a
believing educational environment are provided to him;undoubtedly the
child will grow up holding firm belief and virtuous morals.
2- Importance of the child's early years in upbringing and building
his character:
In his early years, the child learns many more things than expected by
his parents. Customs can be acquired easily at a younger age where 90
percent of the upbringing process takes place inthe first five years.
The importance of early childhood "pre-school or pre-discerning stage"
is highlighted when we know that the human childhood period is longer
than the childhood of any other creature. The childhood of humans is
characterized with purity, flexibility and soundness of disposition.
It lasts for a long time where the parent can instill what he wants in
the child. The child adheres throughout his life to the values that he
was brought up on and accustomed to. What the child receives in his
early childhood delineates the basic features of his future character.
It becomes difficult to change these features even if they are
undesirable. Margaret Mahler said that the first three years of every
person's life are considered a new birth.
As Allaah The Almighty made parents responsible for the creed of their
child, He made the child learn only from his parents during the stage
of his early childhood. The child sees his parents as a high example
in every respect, so that he cannot believe anyone other than them.
Hence, Allaah The Almighty fortifies the child from the
effectsemanating from outside the family in his early childhood.
Sincere parents carry out their duties assigned by Allaah The
Almighty, who also made the child depend upon his parents in every
matter during this period.
Moreover, in this period, the childtends to satisfying and
complyingwith his parents in order to hear words of admiration and
praise. Knowing this fact, it is obvious that parents should utilize
this period in building up the aspect of faith in the child's
personality and disciplining and teaching himin the proper way.
Ibn Al-Jawzi said, "The best discipline is that which takes place at a
young age. If the child is allowed to behave freely; brought up
without discipline, it becomes hard to put him on the right path
later."
So, parents and mentors should forget the sentences, which are usually
stumbling blocks in the way of disciplining many children, such as
"they are still young" or "when they get older, they will know the
right way." - - ▓███▓ Translator:->

Stages of the revelation of the Quran

Essential to learning the history of the Quran is the study of the
stages of its revelation, which is usually referred to by the
term"'Tanzeel' of the Quran", literally, the descent or the 'sending
down' of the Quran from the Heavens to the Earth. Some of theaspects
to be discussed in relationship to this would be the meaning of the
'Tanzeel' and whyit happened in stages, what was revealed first and
what was revealed last, and the significanceof understanding the
sequence inrevealing the different parts of the Quran, among others.
Certainly, the study of the 'Tanzeel' of the Quran is one of the most
important aspects of the Sciences of the Quran, because it is related
to the beginning of the last revelation, and to being certain of its
descent from Allaah, which is the foundation of believing in the Quran
as the Word of Allaah that came from Him, as well as in the
truthfulness of the Message of Prophet Muhammad .
The Meaning of 'Tanzeel'
Lexically, the term 'Tanzeel' is derived from the Arabic root
'Nuzool', which means the descent or the movement from a high place
down to a lower one. This is exactly what happened in the process of
revelation where the Angel Jibreel (Gabriel) used tocome down from the
Heavens with a varying number of verses of the Quran to deliver to
ProphetMuhammad . The exact nature of this 'Nuzool' and how Jibreel
actually brought the Quranwith him are matters of the unseen, the
details of which Allaah chose not to clarify for us, perhaps because
they involve matters that may be very difficultfor humans to imagine
or grasp. What we should understand is that this 'Nuzool' happened in
a fashion that is befitting to the greatness and sacredness of the
Word of Allaah. Allaah Almighty Says about the Holy Quran (what
means): " (It is) a Quran which Wehave divided (into parts from time
to time), in order that thou (O Muhammad) might recite it to people at
intervals: We have revealed it by stages (in 23 years)." [Quran
17:106]
The Quran was revealed in two stages:
Stage One:
In this stage, the Quran was brought by Jibreel from the Preserved
Tablet (in the Seventh Heaven) down to the First Heaven(sky) and
placed in the 'Place of Power or Honor'. First, the Quran mentions the
Preserved Tablets in the verse (which means):
"Nay! This is a Glorious Quran, inscribed in a Preserved Tablet"
[Quran 85:21-22]
Then it tells of the fact that it was sent down during a specific
night, in the verse (which means):
"By the Book that makes things clear; - We sent it down during a
Blessed Night: for We (ever) wish to warn (against Evil). In the
(Night) is made distinct every affair of wisdom." [Quran 44:2-4]
And (which means):
"We have indeed sent down this during the Night of Power." [Quran 97:1].
These two verses indicate that the Quran was revealed in a single
blessed night in the monthof Ramadhaan that is called the 'Night of
Power, or Decree'.
Stage Two:
This stage of revelation lasted forabout 23 years in which the Quran
was sent down in response to the development of events and in
accordance with the sequence needed to complete the delivery of the
Message.
The Prophet after receiving revelation, would automatically memorize
the Quranic verses thatwere revealed to him and would recite them to
whomever was in his company, and order them (the Companions ) to write
them down immediately. The Messenger himself used to keep a copy of
the revealed portions in his house. The Quran, the last of Allaah's
Scriptures, is divided into 114 'Surahs' (Chapters) of unequal length.
It isthe first fundamental source of Islamic Sharee'ah (Islamic Law).
Allaah, Most High, Says (what means): "… A Quran which We have given
seriatim (separated out) in order that you may recite it to the people
at intervals and We have caused it to come down successively (by
stages)." [Quran 17:106]
But verse 6:7 observes (what means): "If We had sent unto you(O
Muhammad) a written (message) on parchment, so that they could touch
it with their hands, the unbelievers would have been sure to say:
"This is nothing but obvious magic."' [Quran 6:7]
Recording cynical speeches of theunbelievers, Almighty Allaah Says
(what means): " Why has the Quran not been vouchsafed to him
(Muhammad) in one single whole?" [Quran 25:32]
And the answer to that is the verse (which means): "…that yourheart (O
Muhammad) may be strengthened, We have rehearsedit to you in slow,
well-arranged stages, gradually. " [Quran 25:32]
There is no nation that has ever cared about, revered, and preserved
its Divine Scripture as the Muslim nation has cared about, revered and
preserved the Quran. Unlike the other Divine Scriptures, the Quran is
not kept in the hands of a particular groupor elite of the Muslims,
and for this reason, it is not subject to suspicion that it might have
beentampered with or altered. Rather,it has always been within the
reach of all Muslims. - - ▓███▓ Translator:->

Contentment is a Sign of Wealth

If people become content with the little they have, then there will be
no poor or deprived persons among them. If the slaveis content with
what Allaah The Almighty has given him, he will be powerful and in no
need of others, even if he does not possess a lot in this life.
Ash-Shaafi'i said, "I knew that contentment is the core of richness,
and I adhered to it, so I never stood at anybody's door, orbegged
anyone. Consequently, I became rich without a dirham, passing by
people as if I were a king."
The Prophet advised his Ummah (nation) to have contentment when he
said: "Be content with what Allaah has given you, and you will be the
richest person." He would supplicate to Allaah the Almighty,saying:
"Allaahuma qanni'ni bima razaqtani wa baarik li feeh wakhluf 'ala
kulli ghaa'ibatin li bikhayr [O Allaah, make me content with what You
have provided me, bless it for me and grant me good thing in
compensation for whatever I miss]."
A person who is content with what Allaah The Almighty provides him
enjoys tranquility, satisfaction and peace of mind ashe does not long
for what others have or desire what he does not possess. Accordingly,
Allaah The Almighty, as well as people, will love him, and the
following Hadeeth of the Prophet would apply to him: "Do not incline
to the worldly life and Allaah will love you. Have no desire for what
people possess, and people will love you."
Moreover, a slave cannot reach the degree of the thankful unless he
becomes content with the provision that he receives. This meaning is
indicated by the saying of the Prophet to Abu Hurayrah : "O Abu
Hurayrah! Be pious, and you will be the most worshipping person. Be
content, and you will be the mostthankful person. Love for people what
you love for yourself, and you will be a [true] believer." A content
slave, therefore, has a virtuous self as he does not hurt his pride
for the sake of a worldlygain that will soon vanish. Such people are
the ones whom AllaahThe Almighty praised in His Saying (which means):
{[Charity is]for the poor who have been restricted for the cause of
Allaah, unable to move about in the land. An ignorant [person] would
think them self-sufficient becauseof their restraint, but you will
know them by their [characteristic] sign. They do not ask people
persistently [or at all]. And whatever you spend of good - indeed,
Allaah is Knowing of it.} [Quran 2:273] Also, the Prophet gave us glad
tidings when he said: "Successful is the person who adopted Islam, has
been provided with what is just sufficient for his needs, and been
made content by Allaah with what He has given him." 'Umar ibn
Al-Khattaab said, "Greed is [in essence] poverty and despair [of what
others have] is richness. Anyone who despairs of[i.e., does not long
for] what is possessed by others, becomes in no need of that."
An amazing story in this regard ismentioned in the book of Al-Ihyaa',
Al-Khaleel ibn Ahmad Al-Faraaheedi refused to be the private tutor of
the son of theruler of Al-Ahwaaz. He brought out dry bread to show the
messenger of the ruler, and said, "As long as I find this, I am in no
need of Sulaymaan [the ruler]. Then, he said some poetic verses which
mean,
"Inform Sulaymaan that I enjoy ease and richness, although I have no wealth.
I keep my pride as I see no one die of hunger, or remain in the same
state all his life.
We realize that poverty lies in souls not in properties, as does richness."
Indeed, the Prophet was truthful when he said: "Richness is not the
abundance of wealth; rather it is self-contentment." O Allaah, make us
content with what You have given us and make us the most contented
people of what You have decreed to us of provisions!
