Jihad in occupied lands is an essential part of Islam ...

 

Dear All,

 

I have to make a small addition to Br Nakeeb's answers below about the brave fighters on the path of Allah. I once replied to an agressive mail from Lady Suranee (my one time friend, turned enemy when I supported innocent women and children murdered by the Americans), about the different types of fighters from among Muslims in Afghanistan and Iraq. There are many .... those who fight in support of Saddam, those who fight to collect ransom, those who fight for sectrian line, ofcourse fueled by American, those who fight to avenge political opponents etc etc .....

 

..... and on the opposite side are the coalition occupiers, and their mercinery forces such as Black water ..... who do most civilian bombings ....

 

..... and those those who fight only the occupying criminal forces, who commit unspeakable crimes of mass murder, mass rape, carryout inhuman torture, destroy infra structure of their nation .... This latter group fight only in the path of Allah as per strict rules laid down by Allah and the way shown by our Belowed Prophet (pbuh).

This is the only group acceptable to Muslims and acceptable to Allah. All others are fighting just like the occupiers themselves. They are no different to the occupying forces of NATO headed by USA. Both are brutals and have no mercy for the civilians.

 

Though Muslim criminals actions can be easily justified by the yardstick of the occupying forces, the Majesty of Islam does not recognize it as a solution to persectution by the evil forces.

 

Islam recognizes only the latter group mentioned above, because they fight only the evil forces. They do not resort to cowardly acts of torturing and killing civilians from both sides. They respect peace treaties. They fight with their own wealth and lives and do not expect tangible rewards and worldly benefits for themselves. Sh Osma I believe is one such person who sacrificed his billions and palaces for the sake of Allah. Br Nakeeb is free to differ though his consions may not. This is true Jihad for whom Allah has kept a great eternal reward. Sh Osama was number one enemy of the evil forces headed by America since they feared that he could revive Islam to the calibre of the companions of our Prophet (pbuh) who conquored the world with very little means. This is because the enemiesof Islam studied and understood the power of Islam thru' its great history. Their simple life styles converted huge nations like Indonesia without having to shed a drop of blood. Americans and the west feared this not knowing that Islam is spreading like wild fire under their own feet right now.

So Jihad of fighting (called qital) is an important tool of Islam to arrest oppression and persectution of innocent people and nations by the evil forces.

 

This jihad, by this single group of great Mujahideen is that is keeping the superpower forces at bay in Afghanistan. I hope Nakeeb will include this good Muslim fighters in his discourses so that the great slaves of Allah will not be termed by him as criminals and terrorists. It was this group who took Yvonne Ridely as a hostage and whose behaviour made her a great Muslimah who has now dedicated her life to Islam and Allah.

Br Nakeeb also should inform his Buddhist audience who has gained good respect among some of them, that Muslims are fighting all over the world not because they are terrorists (of Cat I) but because the west has decided to stop the spread of Islam and have made Islam as their No. 1 enemy and decided to support the most brutal nation of Occupied nation of Palestine, called Israel. Hence, support and commit criminal acts of aggression on our innocent Ummah. These "terror" groups are only the outcome of such brutalism. If and only if they stop state terrorism this group will stop their "terror". Take my word for it.

 

Niyas

Dear Shamika, Your observation is correct. Sacrifice and Jihad (striving in the path of Allah) are two fundamental qualities of a practicing Muslim. (we call him Mu'min). Sacrifice means giving up our time, wealth, staying away from our loved ones etc. Jihad means fighting against our desire for excessive food, unethical association with women, pride and haughtiness etc. Prophet Ibrahim (pbuh) was a model for sacrifice and Jihad; who was prepared to sacrifice 100% of his belonging for the sake of his Lord. That is why we remember his rituals during the time of our pilgrimage to Makkah. Like I wrote before the first type of Muslims who are blinded by their emotions commit such errors which are strictly forbidden in Islam. Shedding blood of innocent people is one of such crimes.

However, that is not how it has been used by many Muslims in the world today. They use it as a permission given to shed blood.

Yes it was sent by Allah to test him on the second type of action. No Allah would not recommend to sacrifice Ibrahim's son. That is why he forbids the knife to cut Ismael's throat. One additional point as I wrote to Gemunu. This is an unusual story of an unusual person. We should look at it in the light of the social order existed at the biblical time. Human sacrifice was considered as loyal act at that time. In present time it would be charged as attempted manslaughter. It is also forbidden in Islam.

I would like to be specific in this case. I very well understand the three types but I am confused about the application of that to this specific scenario. Let me ask couple of straight forward questions; 1. The dream Ibrahim saw, was that sent by Allah as a test? 2. Agree the mentality of Ibrahim (as he was so devoted) even to sacrifice his son. But would Allah be happy to accept a human sacrifice? Simply would Allah recommend killing his own (Ibrahim's) sun to show his loyalty?

VS "Allah did not send any commandment to sacrifice Ismael" I am sorry I will not entertain Mahesh's questions (though he keeps interfering into our discussion) because these spiritual matters are way above the capability of his 'corrupted' mind. Though these two statements appear to be contradictory let me explain why they are in logical sequence. There are three types of actions that man is capable of doing in this world: Action that are commanded by his Lord Action that are not commanded but recommended as it will please his Lord. Action that are prohibited by his Lord. Examples for these types are; worshiping Allah at the prescribed time is the commandment, praying and meditating throughout the night is not commanded but recommended (if one does it would benefit him spiritually and please his Lord but if one doesn't there is no blame on him). Third type is drinking alcohol, gambling etc that are forbidden by the Lord. The dreams that Ibrahim repeatedly saw and his resolve to fulfill the dream is the action of the second type. He could have simply ignored it due to the pain and emotional stress involved in sacrificing his own son because it was not a commandment from Allah. Allah tests us not on the first type of action but we are continuously tested on the second type. If we pass the test then the merits would be higher and we go one level up in the spiritual ladder. I suppose that Buddha preached this concept for the human being to take own initiative to raise his spiritual level but it is not compulsory or compelling for the Buddhists to follow the Noble Eightfold Path. Another example is that assume that I have only one piece of bread and I am hungry as well but I see another person who looks so weak due to lack of food and I think that he is more deserving than me for the piece of bread that I have and offered it to him to appease his hunger. This is an action of the second type. If I had eaten it myself there is no blame on me but by donating the only provision that I have and trusting Allah to give me another piece of bread is meritorious. Prophet Ibrahim (pbuh) was given the ultimate test to sacrifice his own son and the dream appeared many times to prompt him of the option action of the second type.

Dear Nakeeb, I see a contradiction between two sentences in your text; "he tested Ibrahim whether his love towards his Lord was genuine, to be an example for the future generations" (What was the test?) VS "Allah did not send any commandment to sacrifice Ismael" Why did that dream appeared many times? Best Regards, Shamika

Subject: [Islam_or_Terrorism] Reason Behind Advancing Hearing Over Sight in the Holy Quran

 

What is the Reason Behind Advancing Hearing Over Sight in the Holy Quran? God the Almighty says in the Holy Quran; “And pursue not that you have no knowledge of; surely the hearing, the sight, the heart- all of those shall be questioned of.” ( Quran, 17:36 ), and; “Not so did you cover yourselves, lest your hearing, your eyes and your skins should bear witness against you; but you thought that God would never know much of the things that you were working.” ( Quran, 41: 22), and: “Say; ‘Think you, if God took away your hearing and your sight, and sealed up you hearts, who – a god other than God – could restore them to you?’” ( Quran, 6:46 ) Why was sight mentioned in plural in Quran ? Hearing comes before sight in the vas majority of verses in Quran ! What are the possible reasons behind advancing "hearing" over "sight" in Quran ? 1- Hearing develops before sight in the embryo stage , and it is the first sense that functions in life. The function of hearing starts immediately with the baby after deliver, in contrary to the eye which does not function the time the baby is brought to life. In other words, God the Almighty conveys to us that it is hearing that functions at first. If a disturbing sound is produced near the newly born baby, he/ she feels terrified and cries. But if a hand is approached near the same baby, he/ she does not move or sense any sort of danger. 2- Ear is preferred over and more superior than the eye, as it does not stop function by sleep. Since the very beginning of life, the ear functions at the first instance after delivery, while some other organs may wait days, or years to function. The eye needs light to see. Rays of light are reflected on things, then enter the eye to see things. If it is dark, the eye cannot function, but the ear can function day and night. 3- Ear is the link between man and the world. When God the Almighty decreed that the Men of the Cave sleep hundred of years, He said in the Holy Quran; “Then We smote their ears many years in the Cave.” ( Quran, 18 : 11 )   Hence when ear was out of function, men of the Cave were able to sleep hundred of years without any disturbance. Noisy daylight movements, contrary to night quietness, prevent man to sleep deeply. Yet the ears never sleep or lose attention. It is noticed that the word hearing advances the word sight in the whole of Quran, except in one verse, which tackles doomsday: “If only you could see when the guilty ones will bend low their heads before their Lord! ‘Our Lord, we have seen and we have heard; now return us, that we may do righteousness, for we do have sure faith.’” ( Quran, 32: 12) In this only verse, God forwards the word "see" over that of "hear", as the horrible scenes of Doomsday (the day of judgment) when overwhelming people, will be seen first before heard of. God knows best. Another interesting point : It is also noticed that the word ear is always referred to in the singular form while the word eyes in the plural form. God says in the Holy Quran: “Not so did you cover yourselves, lest your hearing, your eyes and your skins should bear witness against you; but you thought that God would never know much of the things that you were working.” ( Quran, 41: 22), and: “Say; ‘Think you, if Allah took away your hearing and your eyes, and sealed up your hearts, who – a god other than Allah – could restore them to you?’” ( Quran, 6:46 )   Why is it in the Quran the word "ear" is singular while "eyes" is plural ? Why is it, in the Holy Quran, that the word “ear” is always singular, while the word “eyes” is plural? Why could it not be “ears and eyes”, or “ear and eye”? Allah the Almighty, in such an accurate expression, seeks to reveal to us the precision of the Holy Quran. The sense of sight can be willingly controlled by man, as he is opt whether to see or not. Man can close his eyes for the things he does not like to see, but he cannot do the same with his sense of hearing, as he has no control over ear whether to hear or not. In other words, when someone is in a room where ten people are talking, their voices will reach his ear whether he is willing or not. The sense of sight vary among people; someone sees something while another sees something else due to a different variation of sight, while someone else closes his eyes and sees nothing. For hearing, we all share the same sound, if we are assembled in one place. Hence eyes vary but ears stand single. What We See and What We Do Not ..! Are there really things around us that we cannot see? A quick look to the nature of light, being the tool of vision and sight, can help bring home the idea. · There is a difference between visible light and light in general. · Light scale in general starts with less than 0.1 of the nanometer, as in the case of rays of short wave and high power (Gamma rays), up to more than 1 km, as in the case of long waves and low power (Radio waves). · Visible light is the light waves that man’s eyes can receive and through which he can see things. This has no significant rate in the wave length scale of light or in electromagnetic waves, where normal light waves with its seven known colours reach a rate of 400 and 800 nanometers (nanometer is one thousand-millionth of a meter) on the scale grade. · Man with the help of visible light can see all around, as he can see microorganisms through microscopes and far celestial bodies through telescopes. Man was not able before the discovery of these two instruments to see more than his open eye could see. Man can presumably see all that which can be seen by visible light, regardless of being minute or huge. This gives the room for the question: what about other unseen worlds? · What is the volume of these visible things in the direct light waves in comparison with the things that cannot be seen or perceived by the human eye? Visible and invisible light waves (please note that visible light wave is between 400 and 800 nanometers ) Here are the different types of famous rays and their existence on the wave length scale, arranged in an ascending order as per the length of waves and in an descending order as per the power range: 1- Gamma Ray. Its length is less than 0.1 of the nanometer, and is considered of the highest power. 2- X-ray. Its wave length reaches up to 1 nanometer and is high in power and can penetrate lots of substances. It is commonly used in the medical field. 3- Ultraviolet ray. Its wave length reaches up to 100 nanometers and is originated from stars explosion, and the sun as well bursts huge amounts of such a ray. 4- Visible light. The length of different waves ranges between 400 – 800 nanometers. 5- Infra-red ray. It length is 0.1 of the nanometer and is usually originated from hot substances and every living being. This ray is used by armies to locate targets of machineries and soldiers that emit heat. Lots of snakes use it to determine their quarries precisely. 6- Short waves or microwaves. These are used in telecommunications (specially in mobile phones), and commonly used heaters. They are used as well in guiding planes, and in determining the speed of traffic on roads. 7- Radio waves. They range between one meter to 1 km in length and are originated from stars as other rays, as well as the lightening processes in clouds, and can be received by radio sets. They are used in wireless telecommunications in general. Different invisible light waves (Gamma ray , X-Ray, Ultraviolet ray, Infra red ray, microwaves & Radio waves) · The Quranic miracle is thus crystallized, as God verily says in the Holy Quran; “I swear by that you see and by that you do not see.” ( Quran, 69:38-39) Rums
