Scientific Facts in the Qur’an – SKY’S PROTECTION (Video)

info-pictogram1 The Qur’an is not a book of science but a book of signs, yet it contains some undeniable facts related to science.

Islam strongly urges mankind to study and explore the universe and the world around us.

Allah has not forbidden mankind to question. Allah tells us throughout the Qur’an to contemplate and investigate the heavens and the earth.

Allah says:

“Verily! In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the alternation of night and day, there are indeed signs for men of understanding.”

“Who remember Allah while standing or sitting or [lying] on their sides and give thought to the creation of the heavens and the earth, [saying], “Our Lord, You did not create this aimlessly; exalted are You [above such a thing]; then protect us from the punishment of the Fire.”
(Qur’an 3:190-191)

Prophetic Traditions on Hatin’ and Trollin’

10460708_10152848566368080_805391464216442973_n

“A true Muslim is a person who others are safe from his speech and hands.”

“A Muslim does not hate another Muslim.”

“Avoid hatin’ because it devours good deeds like fire devours wood.”

“It is enough of an evil to hate another Muslim in your heart.”

I heard one of my teachers say,
“When someone reads the last verse of the 113th chapter of the Qur’an, he is not only seeking refuge in Allah from haters, but asking to protect others from his hating as well; and to protect him from his own hatin’ because it will inflict considerable damage on his Hereafter. “

Science says Men & Women Can’t Be Just Friends (Video)

info-pictogram1 Another one of the beauties of #Islam is that it recognizes this great natural attraction between men and women and gives us the clear guidelines in this matter so that we can keep to a pure , Safe, chaste, and moral life style. This can be a sensitive issue for some people but if you put your emotions to the side and sincerely look at this from a scientific and logical perspective from the studies that have been done on the issue of gender relations, and if you are a God loving and fearing human being you would start to agree more and more with Islam’s special care and protection of women.

Why Men and Women Can’t be friends (Video)

info-pictogram1 Some people think that men and women can keep it halah and just be friends, we know that that this statement is false because
The last and final Messenger sent to mankind Prophet Muhammad warned us against being alone with a non-mahram woman, and said: “No man is alone with a woman but the shaytaan is the third one present.” [Narrated by Ahmad, al-Tirmidhi and al-Haakim]

Even if they are not alone the friendship would never be like the friendship a women has with a women or a man has with a man as you will see clearly in this video. So sisters don’t ever fool yourselves thinking other wise.

Q&A: Praying in a house where a dog lives

Source: http://www.questionsonislam.com/question/can-we-live-and-worship-house-having-dog

Question: 

I have a pet dog in the house and my sister in law will not pray in the house -saying it is a rule in the Koran-I say she can pray in a room that the dog is not allowed in-is there a direct quote in the koran and if so-where?
The Answer: 

“We can live and worship in a house having dog. It is enough for the floor that we perform salah on, to be clean.”

Is there a drawback in raising dog? Can we raise dog in the garden?

There are some hadith (word of prophet Muhammad) stating that “angels of God’s mercy and grace do not enter the house with a dog in it, some rewards of that home owner that he won for his good deeds decrease everyday, but it is permissible raising a dog for the purpose of hunting, for the sheep, and as a guard”. Also it has a possibility to harm our health and worship (which requires cleanness) because dog saliva and hair may spread around. Therefore if there is not a necessity it is not proper to have a dog inside the house. Raising a dog at home when there is no necessity is not haram (forbidden) but slightly makruh (disliked or abominable acts). In the Fiqh (Islamic Jurisprudence) this is called “tanzehan makruh” (not close to haram (illicit) liketahreman makruh but better if avoided).

In addition to this we can live and worship in a house having dog. It is enough for the floor that we perform salah on, to be clean.

Hz. Muhammad (pbuh) says: “Some rewards of a dog raising person that he won for his good deeds decrease everyday except that it is for hunting, for the sheep, or as a guard for gardens or fields.” (Bukhari, Zabaih, 6; Muslim, Musakhat, 46,50,56-58)

And when the hadith that declaring angels not entering a home with a dog in it taken into consideration, raising dog at home without a necessity like protection or hunting is banned in Islam, because: a) Poor and lonely people deserve the maintenance and spending of the people who can raise dog more.b) According to definite medical information there are many contagious diseases passing from dogs to humans.

c) A dog may scare or disturb people near home or coming home. (Günlük Hayatımızda Helaller ve Haramlar (Halals and Harams in Our Daily Life), Hayreddin Karaman, İz Yayıncılık)

DOWNLOADBUTTONpasstheknowledge-ptkbannerheadapp

info-pictogram1 One who recites Ayatul Kursi every morning will be in the protection, safety of Allah until the night. Our Holy Prophet (SAW) has said: These things increase ones memory; sweets, meat of an animal near the neck, Adas(Lentils), cold bread
and recitation of Ayatul Kursi. Imam Ali (AS) was told by our Holy Prophet: Qur’an is a great word, and Surah Baqarah is the leader of the Qur’an and Ayatul Kursi is the leader of Surae Baqarah. In Ayatul Kursi there are 50 words and for each word there are 50 blessings and good in it.
