# To be successful, you need to be totally committed; compromise is failure.
# Keep your eye on the 'big picture.' Don't drown yourself in the details.
# Take input from others. Revolution can't happen because of just one person, don't be vanguard or a vigilante.
# You will benefit no one if you are just attempting to consolidate power for yourself or gain recognition.
# Violent revolutions only happen when people of power attack the movement. The deaths of leaders and inspirational figures can spark a massive uprising. Once again, the greater the popularity - the less possible violence.



# Do not believe that you have the answer, because there is always a new question, and the question is always the same: How do we make this better? You revolted against an old revolution, as you will be revolted against. There are no answers, only cycles.

# Your government may arrest leader, for conspiracy.

# A revolution is not about you, it's about everyone collectively. Do not try to take fame.

# Like in many revolutions in the past, you could be killed in war, attack, assassination, become a prisoner, be tortured, and any other atrocities committed by people of power who are protecting their interests.

# Never let the purpose of the revolution be led by the will of a single person or group; adherents must be ruled only by their cause

There are times when it is necessary to fight against things that have become so wrong that they should no longer be. Things that were once small that have become big, but are no less wrong, must be made small again; a revolution, or a complete circle, is needed. Whether you want freedom from another country , or you want to overthrow an oppressive government, every fight is the same. A revolution (from the Latin revolutio, "a turnaround" is a significant change that usually occurs in a short period of time. Revolutions have happened throughout human history and vary widely in terms of methods, duration, motivating ideology, and the number of participating revolutionaries. Their results include major changes in culture, economy, and socio-political institutions.

1. Educate yourself and others about every aspect of the idea of the revolution; what and why this fight must happen and how it can be won. Identify the goals and the most efficient means of achieving them without compromise. Appreciate and respect a diversity of tactics. The revolution must be directed towards making things better. This is what is called a "positive vector.


2. Understand that one of the most important aspects of a revolution is that the people are angry. However, the cause for anger ought to be of true convictions, and in their anger there must also be discipline to their cause.

3. Put together intentions which must be very popular among the population. It must aim towards the improvement of certain aspects of society, economics, culture, or any other aspects of a social group. Appreciate and respect a diversity of tactics.

4.Find like-minded people who are ready for action. Set up a field of communication. You must be led by a charismatic leader in a non-hierarchical group in which all voices are equally heard

5. Work for collective liberation, because everyone's liberation is tied to each other's. If we are going to be free, we all need to be free.

6. Demonstrate the popularity of the movement to the people of power, legislature, and military. The greater the popularity among the society reduces the likelihood of violence

7. Realize that a drastic political or social revolution is almost always about freedom. In general, revolutions are about major changes in some aspect of society. A peaceful revolution requires solidarity and agreement.

The Meaning of Al-Fatihah and its Various Names

This Surah is called Al-Fatihah, that is, the Opener of the Book, the Surah with which prayers are begun. It is also called, Umm Al-Kitab (the Mother of the Book), according to the majority of the scholars. In an authentic Hadith recorded by At-Tirmidhi, who graded it Sahih, Abu Hurayrah said that the Messenger of Allah said,

«الْحَمْدُ للهِ رَبَ الْعَالَمِينَ أُمُّ الْقُرْآنِ وَأُمُّ الْكِتَابِ وَالسَّبْعُ الْمَثَانِي وَالْقُرْآنُ الْعَظِيمُ»

(Al-Hamdu lillahi Rabbil-`Alamin is the Mother of the Qur'an, the Mother of the Book, and the seven repeated Ayat of the Glorious Qur'an.)

It is also called Al-Hamd and As-Salah, because the Prophet said that his Lord said,

«قَسَمْتُ الصَّلَاةَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ عَبْدِي نِصْفَيْنِ، فَإِذَا قَالَ الْعَبْدُ:الْحَمْدُدِلله رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ، قَالَ اللهُ: حَمِدَنِي عَبْدِي»

(`The prayer (i.e., Al-Fatihah) is divided into two halves between Me and My servants.' When the servant says, `All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of existence,' Allah says, 'My servant has praised Me.')

Al-Fatihah was called the Salah, because reciting it is a condition for the correctness of Salah - the prayer. Al-Fatihah was also called Ash-Shifa' (the Cure).

Al-Fatihah was called the Salah, because reciting it is a condition for the correctness of Salah - the prayer. Al-Fatihah was also called Ash-Shifa' (the Cure).

It is also called Ar-Ruqyah (remedy), since in the Sahih, there is the narration of Abu Sa`id telling the the story of the Companion who used Al-Fatihah as a remedy for the tribal chief who was poisoned. Later, the Messenger of Allah said to a Companion,

«وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ أَنَّهَا رُقْيَةٌ»

(How did you know that it is a Ruqyah)

Al-Fatihah was revealed in Makkah as Ibn `Abbas, Qatadah and Abu Al-`Aliyah stated. Allah said,

[وَلَقَدْ ءاتَيْنَـكَ سَبْعًا مِّنَ الْمَثَانِي]

(And indeed, We have bestowed upon you the seven Mathani) (seven repeatedly recited verses), (i.e. Surat Al-Fatihah) (15:87). Allah knows best.

How many Ayat does Al-Fatihah contain

There is no disagreement over the view that Al-Fatihah contains seven Ayat. According to the majority of the reciters of Al-Kufah, a group of the Companions, the Tabi`in, and a number of scholars from the successive generations, the Bismillah is a separate Ayah in its beginning. We will mention this subject again soon, if Allah wills, and in Him we trust.

The Number of Words and Letters in Al-Fatihah

The scholars say that Al-Fatihah consists of twenty-five words, and that it contains one hundred and thirteen letters.

Al-Mu'minun Ayah 96
ادْفَعْ بِالَّتِي هِيَ أَحْسَنُ السَّيِّئَةَ نَحْنُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يَصِفُونَ

Repel evil with that which is better. We are Best-Acquainted with the things they utter. [Noble Translation]

Repel evil with that which is better. We are Best Aware of that which they allege. [Pickthall Translation]
Al-Qasas Ayah 54
أُوْلَئِكَ يُؤْتَوْنَ أَجْرَهُم مَّرَّتَيْنِ بِمَا صَبَرُوا وَيَدْرَؤُونَ بِالْحَسَنَةِ السَّيِّئَةَ وَمِمَّا رَزَقْنَاهُمْ يُنفِقُونَ

These will be given their reward twice over, because they are patient, and repel evil with good, and spend (in charity) out of what We have provided them. [Noble Translation]

These will be given their reward twice over, because they are steadfast and repel evil with good, and spend of that wherewith We have provided them, [Pickthall Translation]
Fussilat Ayah 34
وَلَا تَسْتَوِي الْحَسَنَةُ وَلَا السَّيِّئَةُ ادْفَعْ بِالَّتِي هِيَ أَحْسَنُ فَإِذَا الَّذِي بَيْنَكَ وَبَيْنَهُ عَدَاوَةٌ كَأَنَّهُ وَلِيٌّ حَمِيمٌ

The good deed and the evil deed cannot be equal. Repel (the evil) with one which is better (i.e. Allah ordered the faithful believers to be patient at the time of anger, and to excuse those who treat them badly), then verily! he, between whom and you there was enmity, (will become) as though he was a close friend. [Noble Translation]

The good deed and the evil deed are not alike. Repel the evil deed with one which is better, then lo! he, between whom and thee there was enmity (will become) as though he was a bosom friend. [Pickthall Translation]

Tafseer suratul alaq

Which was revealed in Makkah

This was the First of the Qur'an revealed

[بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَـنِ الرَّحِيمِ ]

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

[اقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِى خَلَقَ - خَلَقَ الإِنسَـنَ مِنْ عَلَقٍ - اقْرَأْ وَرَبُّكَ الاٌّكْرَمُ - الَّذِى عَلَّمَ بِالْقَلَمِ - عَلَّمَ الإِنسَـنَ مَا لَمْ يَعْلَمْ ]

(1. Read! In the Name of your Lord Who created.) (2. He has created man from a clot.) (3. Read! And your Lord is the Most Generous.) (4. Who has taught by the pen.) (5. He has taught man that which he knew not.)

The Beginning of the Prophethood of Muhammad and the First of the Qur'an revealed

Imam Ahmad recorded that `A'ishah said: The first thing that began happening with the Messenger of Allah from the revelation was dreams that he would see in his sleep that would come true. He would not see any dream except that it would come true just like the (clearness of) the daybreak in the morning. Then seclusion became beloved to him. So, he used to go to the cave of Hira' and devote himself to worship there for a number of nights, and he would bring provisions for that. Then he would return to Khadijah and replenish his provisions for a similar number of nights. This continued until the revelation suddenly came to him while he was in the cave of Hira'. The angel came to him while he was in the cave and said, "Read!'' The Messen- ger of Allah said,

«فَقُلْتُ: مَا أَنَا بِقَارِىء»

(I replied: "I am not one who reads.) Then he said, "So he (the angel) seized me and pressed me until I could no longer bear it. Then he released me and said: `Read!' So I replied: `I am not one who reads.' So, he pressed me a second time until I could no longer bear it. Then he released me and said:

[اقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِى خَلَقَ ]

(Read in the Name of your Lord who has created.) until he reached the Ayah,

[مَا لَمْ يَعْلَمْ]

(That which he knew not. )'' So he returned with them (those Ayat) and with his heart trembling until he came (home) to Khadijah, and he said,

«زَمِّلُونِي زَمِّلُونِي»

(Wrap me up, wrap me up!) So they wrapped him up until his fear went away. After that he told Khadijah everything that had happened (and said),

«قَدْ خَشِيتُ عَلَى نَفْسِي»

(I fear that something may happen to me.) Khadijah replied, "Never! By Allah, Allah will never disgrace you. You keep good relations with your relatives, you speak the truth, you help the poor and the destitute, you serve your guests generously, and you help the deserving, calamity afflicted people.'' Khadijah then accompanied him to her cousin Waraqah bin Nawfal bin Asad bin `Abdul-`Uzza bin Qusay, who, during the period of ignorance became a Christian and used to scribe the Scriptures in Arabic. He would write from the Injil in Hebrew as much as Allah willed for him to write. He was an old man and had lost his eyesight. Khadijah said to him, "O my cousin! Listen to the story of your nephew.'' Waraqah asked, "O my nephew! What have you seen'' Allah's Messenger described what he saw. Waraqah said, "This is An-Namus whom Allah had sent to Musa. I wish I was young and could live until the time when your people would drive you out.'' Allah's Messenger asked,

«أَوَ مُخْرِجِيَّ هُمْ؟»

(Will they drive me out) Waraqah replied in the affirmative and said, "Anyone who came with something similar to what you have brought, was treated with hostility and enmity; and if I should remain alive till that day then I would firmly support you.'' But Waraqah did not remain. He died and the revelation paused until Allah's Messenger became sad according to what we were told. Due to this grief he set out a number of times with the intent of throwing himself from the mountain tops. However, every time he would reach the peak of a mountain to throw himself from it, Jibril would appear to him and say, "O Muhammad! You are truly the Messenger of Allah!'' Therefore, his worry would be eased, his soul would be settled and he would return (down from the mountain). Then, when the revelation did not come again for a long time, he set out as he had done before. So when he reached the peak of the mountain, Jibril appeared to him again and said to him the same as he had said before.'' This Hadith has been recorded in the Two Sahihs by way of Az-Zuhri. We have already discussed this Hadith's chain of narration, its text and its meanings at length in the beginning of our explanation of Sahih Al-Bukhari. Therefore, whoever would like to read it, it is researched there, and all praise and blessings are due to Allah. So the first thing that was revealed of the Qur'an were these noble and blessed Ayat. They are the first mercy that Allah bestowed upon His servants and the first bounty that Allah favored them with.

The Honor and Nobility of Man is in His Knowledge

These Ayat inform of the beginning of man's creation from a dangling clot, and that out of Allah's generosity He taught man that which he did not know. Thus, Allah exalted him and honored him by giving him knowledge, and it is the dignity that the Father of Humanity, Adam, was distinguished with over the angels. Knowledge sometimes is in the mind, sometimes on the tongue, and sometimes in writing with the fingers. Thus, it may be intellectual, spoken and written. And while the last (written) necessitates the first two (intellectual and spoken), the reverse is not true. For this reason Allah says,

[اقْرَأْ وَرَبُّكَ الاٌّكْرَمُ - الَّذِى عَلَّمَ بِالْقَلَمِ - عَلَّمَ الإِنسَـنَ مَا لَمْ يَعْلَمْ ]

(Read! And your Lord is the Most Generous. Who has taught by the pen. He has taught man that which he knew not.) There is a narration that states, "Record knowledge by writing.'' There is also a saying which states, "Whoever acts according to what he knows, Allah will make him inherit knowledge that he did not know.''

[كَلاَّ إِنَّ الإِنسَـنَ لَيَطْغَى - أَن رَّءَاهُ اسْتَغْنَى - إِنَّ إِلَى رَبِّكَ الرُّجْعَى - أَرَأَيْتَ الَّذِى يَنْهَى - عَبْداً إِذَا صَلَّى - أَرَءَيْتَ إِن كَانَ عَلَى الْهُدَى - أَوْ أَمَرَ بِالتَّقْوَى - أَرَءَيْتَ إِن كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّى - أَلَمْ يَعْلَم بِأَنَّ اللَّهَ يَرَى - كَلاَّ لَئِن لَّمْ يَنتَهِ لَنَسْفَعاً بِالنَّاصِيَةِ - نَاصِيَةٍ كَـذِبَةٍ خَاطِئَةٍ - فَلْيَدْعُ نَادِيَهُ - سَنَدْعُ الزَّبَانِيَةَ - كَلاَّ لاَ تُطِعْهُ وَاسْجُدْ وَاقْتَرِب ]

(6. Nay! Verily, man does transgress.) (7. Because he considers himself self-sufficient.) (8. Surely, unto your Lord is the return.) (9. Have you seen him who prevents) (10. A servant when he prays) (11. Have you seen if he is on the guidance) (12. Or enjoins Taqwa) (13. Have you seen if he denies and turns away) (14. Knows he not that Allah sees) (15. Nay! If he ceases not, We will scorch his forehead --) (16. A lying, sinful forehead!) (17. Then let him call upon his council.) (18. We will call out the guards of Hell!) (19. Nay! Do not obey him. Fall prostrate and draw near (to Allah)!)

The Threat against Man's Transgression for the sake of Wealth

Allah informs that man is very pleased, most evil, scornful and transgressive when he considers himself self-sufficient and having an abundance of wealth. Then Allah threatens, warns and admonishes him in His saying,

[إِنَّ إِلَى رَبِّكَ الرُّجْعَى ]

(Surely, unto your Lord is the return.) meaning, `unto Allah is the final destination and return, and He will hold you accountable for your wealth, as to where you obtained it from and how did you spend it.'

Scolding of Abu Jahl and the Threat of seizing Him

Then Allah says,

[أَرَأَيْتَ الَّذِى يَنْهَى - عَبْداً إِذَا صَلَّى ]

(Have you seen him who prevents. A servant when he prays) This was revealed about Abu Jahl, may Allah curse him. He threatened the Prophet for performing Salah at the Ka`bah. Thus, Allah firstly admonished him with that which was better by saying,

[أَرَءَيْتَ إِن كَانَ عَلَى الْهُدَى ]

(Have you seen if he is on the guidance.) meaning, `do you think this man whom you are preventing is upon the straight path in his action, or

[أَوْ أَمَرَ بِالتَّقْوَى ]

(Or enjoins Taqwa) in his statements Yet, you rebuke him and threaten him due to his prayer.' Thus, Allah says,

[أَلَمْ يَعْلَم بِأَنَّ اللَّهَ يَرَى ]

(Knows he not that Allah sees) meaning, doesn't this person who is preventing this man who is following correct guidance know that Allah sees him and hears his words, and He will compensate him in full for what he has done Then Allah says by way of warning and threatening,

[كَلاَّ لَئِن لَّمْ يَنتَهِ]

(Nay! If he ceases not,) meaning, if he does not recant from his discord and obstinacy,

[لَنَسْفَعاً بِالنَّاصِيَةِ]

(We will scorch his forehead.) meaning, `indeed We will make it extremely black on the Day of Judgement.' Then He says,

[نَاصِيَةٍ كَـذِبَةٍ خَاطِئَةٍ ]

(A lying, sinful forehead!) meaning, the forehead of Abu Jahl is lying in its statements and sinful in its actions.

[فَلْيَدْعُ نَادِيَهُ ]

(Then let him call upon his council.) meaning, his people and his tribe. In other words, let him call them in order to seek help from them.

[سَنَدْعُ الزَّبَانِيَةَ ]

(We will call out the guards of Hell!) `And they are the angels of torment. This is so that he may know who will win -- Our group or his group' Al-Bukhari recorded that Ibn `Abbas said, "Abu Jahl said, `If I see Muhammad praying at the Ka`bah, I will stomp on his neck.' So this reached the Prophet , who said,

«لَئِنْ فَعَلَ لَأَخَذَتْهُ الْمَلَائِكَة»

(If he does, he will be seized by the angels.)'' This Hadith was also recorded by At-Tirmidhi and An-Nasa'i in their Books of Tafsir. Likewise, it has been recorded by Ibn Jarir. Ahmad, At-Tirmidhi, An-Nasa'i and Ibn Jarir, all recorded it from Ibn `Abbas with the following wording: "The Messenger of Allah was praying at the Maqam (prayer station of Ibrahim) when Abu Jahl bin Hisham passed by him and said, `O Muhammad! Haven't I prevented you from this' He threatened the Prophet and thus, the Messenger of Allah became angry with him and reprimanded him. Then he said, `O Muhammad! What can you threaten me with By Allah, I have the most kinsmen of this valley with me in the large.' Then Allah revealed,

[فَلْيَدْعُ نَادِيَهُ - سَنَدْعُ الزَّبَانِيَةَ ]

(Then let him call upon his council. We will call out the guards of Hell!)'' Ibn `Abbas then said, "If he had called his people, the angels of torment would have seized him at that very instant.'' At-Tirmidhi said, "Hasan Sahih.'' Ibn Jarir recorded from Abu Hurayrah that Abu Jahl said, "Does Muhammad cover his face with dust (i.e., from prostration) while he is among you all'' They (the people) replied, "Yes.'' Then he said, "By Al-Lat and Al-`Uzza, if I see him praying like this, I will stomp on his neck, and I will certainly put his face in the dust.'' So the Messenger of Allah came and he began praying, which made it possible for Abu Jahl to stomp on his neck. Then the people became surprised at him (Abu Jahl) because he began retreating on his heels and covering himself with his hands. Then it was said to him, "What's the matter with you'' He replied, "Verily, between me and him is a ditch of fire, monsters and wings.'' Then the Messenger of Allah said,

«لَوْ دَنَا مِنِّي لَاخْتَطَفَتْهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ عُضْوًا عُضْوًا»

(If he had come near me, the angels would have snatched him limb by limb.) The narrator added; "Allah revealed an Ayah, but I do not know whether it is concerning the Hadith of Abu Hurayrah or not:

[كَلاَّ إِنَّ الإِنسَـنَ لَيَطْغَى ]

(Nay! Verily, man does transgress.) to the end of the Surah.'' Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal, Muslim, An-Nasa'i and Ibn Abi Hatim all recorded this Hadith.

Amusement for the Prophet

Then Allah says,

[كَلاَّ لاَ تُطِعْهُ]

(Nay! Do not obey him.) meaning, `O Muhammad! Do not obey him in what he is forbidding from such as steadfastness in worship and performing worship in abundance. Pray wherever you wish and do not worry about him. For indeed Allah will protect you and help you, and He will defend you against the people.'

[وَاسْجُدْ وَاقْتَرِب]

(Fall prostrate and draw near (to Allah)!) This is just like what has been confirmed in the Sahih of Muslim on the authority of Abu Salih who reported from Abu Hurayrah that the Messenger of Allah said,

«أَقْرَبُ مَا يَكُونُ الْعَبْدُ مِنْ رَبِّهِ وَهُوَ سَاجِدٌ، فَأَكْثِرُوا الدُّعَاء»

(The closest that a servant can be to his Lord is when he is in prostration. Therefore, make abundant supplications (i.e., while prostrating).)'' It has also been mentioned previously that the Messenger of Allah used to prostrate when he recited

[إِذَا السَّمَآءُ انشَقَّتْ ]

(When the heaven is split asunder.) (84:1) and

[اقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ الَّذِى خَلَقَ ]

(Read! In the Name of your Lord Who has created.) (96:1) This is the end of the Tafsir of Surah Iqra' (Surat Al-`Alaq). Unto Allah is due all praise and thanks, and He is the Giver of success and protection against error.

Suratul Suratul-Jinn

The Muslim is he from whose tongue and hand a Muslim is safe, "
(Sahih Bukhari & Muslim )

"The Believers, men and women, are protectors one of another, "
(Qur'aan 9:71)

Facts about Suratul-Jinn
Suratul-Jinn was revealed in Makkah,
before the Hijrah* to Madinah.
Suratul-Jinn tells us more about the Jinn (unseen
creatures made of smokeless fire) than any other
Surah in the Qur’aan.
Suratul-Jinn tells us things about the “Ghaib”
(unseen world) that we could never know if Allah did
not tell us.
Suratul-Jinn tells us about a group of Jinns that heard
Rasulullah recite the Qur’aan, and then
became Muslims.
What is Suratul-Jin about?
Suratul-Jinn is all about a group of Jinns
who heard the Qur’aan and decided to
become Muslims.
*Hijrah is the journey Rasulullah (and all those who followed him) made to Madinah after teaching Islam in
Makkah for many years and being rejected by his people. After the Hijrah Rasuullah established the Islamic State in
Madinah and eventually returned to peacefully conquer Makkah.


Now let’s learn what
Suratul-Jinn says…

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
 
We start Suratul-Jinn by
remembering Allah.

First let’s learn a little about
the Jinn…
The Jinn are creatures that are very much like us, they
have families and friends, they travel and meet each other, they
have homes and children, and they choose to be good or be
bad…just like us. The only differences between the Jinn and
humans are:
1. The Jinn are “unseen” (we cannot see them,
but they can see us).
2. The Jinn do not have any prophets or books
(like the Qur’aan) of their own. The Jinn learn
about the books of Allah by listening to the
human messengers (like Rasulullah ).
3. The Jinn like to sit in the heavens so that
they can overhear what is going on (i.e. the
angels carrying out the orders of Allah).
The Jinn are not scary, or bad, or able to hurt us like many
people think. The Jinn are really just like us. Some of them are
very good and some are bad.
The easiest way to understand is to compare them to
what we see in humans. Some humans are good and some are
bad. The bad ones, like thieves and magicians, may want to do
bad things, but they cannot hurt anyone unless it is Allah’s will.
The same is true for the Jinn.


Now let’s learn the amazing story that
Allah tells us about in Suratul-Jinn!
Here is how the story goes…
The Jinn at the time of Rasulullah used to go sit in certain
places in the heavens and listen to what the angels where doing.
They wanted to know what was happening, and what would be
happening soon.
One day a group of the Jinn went to the heavens to listen,
like they normally did, but this time they were chased away by
burning fires that were thrown at them.
They wondered what was going on, so they went back to
the other Jinn on Earth and asked about it. The leaders of the Jinn
said that those burning flames were only put in the heavens when
something very important was about to happen (because Allah
did not want the Jinn to know what it was).
So the leaders of the Jinn sent groups of Jinn all over the
Earth. They wanted to find out what was happening that was so
important that the heavens were now being closed off to them.
The group traveled through the Earth until they came to a
valley between Makkah and At-Taif (a city near Makkah). This
valley was called “Nakh-lah”. It just so happened that Rasulullah
and some of the Sahaba were at Nakhlah as well. They were on
their way to a market call “Oo-kaz”, and had stopped in the
valley to make their Fajr Prayer. When the Jinn heard Rasulullah
reciting the Qur’an, they told each other to be quiet and listen to
what he said.
When Rasulullah was finished the Jinn went back to their
people to tell them about what had happened.
Rasulullah did not know that the Jinn were listening, and
he did not know what they said to their people about what they
heard, but Allah knew, and He told Rasulullah all about it in
Suratul-Jinn…


Say: It has been revealed to me that a company of Jinns listened (to the Qur'an).
They said, 'We have really heard a wonderful Recital!




'It gives guidance to the Right, and we have believed therein: we shall not join (in
worship) any (gods) with our Lord.


'And Exalted is the Majesty of our Lord: He has taken neither a wife nor a son.

'There were some foolish ones among us, who used to utter extravagant lies
against Allah.

The Jinn had learned a lot on their
trip and when they got back home
they told the other Jinn all about it…
1. They said that they had found out the reason why
the Jinn could no longer go to the heavens and
listen to what was going on there. They said it was
because a new prophet (Rasulullah ) had come to
Makkah to teach people the Qur’aan.
2. They said that they had heard the most wonderful
words recited by Rasulullah (the Qur’aan).
3. They said that what they heard taught them to
worship only Allah and nothing else.
4. They said now they know the truth about Allah, they
have become Muslims!
5. They said they will not worship anything with Allah
anymore.
6. They said now that they know that Allah does not
have a wife or a son, like Iblees (Shaytaan) used to
say.
7. They said that was just a HUGE lie, that is not true!
The Jinns realized that all the things they had been
doing before were just misguidance.

Seek for Forgiveness from your Lord

I keep wondering why some Nigerians feel they are d most holy people on earth, they keep condemning the Nigerian government when the so called Government are still part of us,

I want you to know that the people in the Government didn't just get there, its by hard work i tell u, some of them are just like us some times ago, but now they walk toward getting to the position of authority and they got there,

but it is a pity that some of them despite going through the pain and also knowing what it feels to have selfish leaders still end up being one( bad leader),

Most of this people complaining and raining abuse and curse on the Government and the country, if given the same opportunity to lead will also fail,

Lets be frank, what has all ur condemnation achieved so far? some even talk and rain curse on our nation in the name of being angry with the Government, but i tell u, no good will ever come from abusing ur country when all u do is talk, what have u done to ever help a Nigerian, not even the Government, if u did not do any good to ur country, then don't do any arm and leave it the way it is,

some people keep saying the Government are bad, accepted they are, no infrastructures,no electricity,no water, and no employment. it is true that we lack this things, but believe me, a little word u contribute positively will help improving this things,

Go round the internet and see how Nigerians abuse the country, and yet u can't even change urself from Being a Nigerian, even if u change ur nationality, u still remain a Nigerian by origin and u know it,


I beg you all, if you see any wrong doing from our government, try to correct it if you can, and if you cant, try to point out the wrong and still pray for the country,

there are people in Nigeria, despite all the suffering, we still believe in our Country Nigeria, We pray to God to guide Our leaders right, and we try as much to say good things about our Country,

We believe the country will get better,

Its about we the youth and Nigerians in general to change our orientation,and avoid being used as thug because of our financial needs,

Lets stand up and save the country

National Open University will soon solve the problem of examination soon with the introduction of the e-examination,

with the e-examination system, student can log on to the school site and write exam at any time, the student will determine how many years he or she spend in studying,


this will solve the problem and also answer the question must people ask about now like how many years do i take a degree course, some people even say it take 8 years to complete a course, but with d e-exams, no more question because u can write ur exam at any time u wish and u see ur result immidiately to know if u passed or fail a course

The e-examination system has been set but still undergoing some test to make sure its okay,

for now, student can only take a practice exam online, this is a way to practice and get familier with the e exam system,

hey guys.


i just fall in d romance section today after a long time,

i dey rep federal housing maitama,

hola

secondly, i will say it doesn't require a live debate to explain to him that d so called rashid is nothin but a lier,

usisky, i am a muslim just like u, but for u can be accepted to be a muslim, u must practice the sunnah of the prophet,

from definition, Sunnah means the way of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). It includes everything he said, did, and approved of. We know the Sunnah from the statements called Hadiths that have been handed down from the Companions of the Prophet.

Islamic Law is taken from the Qur’an and Sunnah. The Sunnah in this sense both explains the Qur’an, and also gives additional rules and guidance. The Qur’an in many places tells us to obey the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and thus it is wrong—as some deviant sects claim—that the Qur’an is sufficient and that we do not need the Sunnah.

from d explanation above, it is easy to ask usisky and others like him this question

U said u want to use the Qur'an alone, good

so

tell me without the sunnah how do u perform salat?

d Qur'an only told us to perform salat without really telling how, it is from the sunnah that d Prophet (peace be unto him) demonstrated and explain how salat should be done,

this is just an example among many more, so how do u explain this if u shouldn't follow the sunnah?

please seek d truth

u do it

@lagosboy

u have really done a great work here,

But i must make something clear here,

D truth is clear for those who truly seek it, if usisky truly seek d truth, he shall see it,

but note that, this is a complicated matter,

i will urge u 2 leave this guy alone. and when ever he his ready to open his heart to the truth, then give it to him,

You'll find the most disastrous campaigns by Jews, Qadianis, Shia, and other enemies of Islam who say, "Just hold fast to Qur'an and don't follow Hadiths because Hadiths aren't reliable." Sayyidina Rasulullah ((may Peace Be Upon Him)) forewarns Muslims Beware of the time when people sitting on cushions, relaxing, say 'just follow Qur'an and don't follow Hadiths'. In addition to the groups named above there is a wave of pro-Zionists propagating a false religion, but trying to use the name of Islam. These people may have Arabic (or Urdu/Farsi) names, dress half-way like Muslims, and use some Arabic terminology, but they are NOT Muslims, nor are they anywhere close to being Muslim! These shayateen are members of an international cult that calls itself "The Submitters," founded by a dajjal named Dr. Rashad Khalifa, Ph.D. The mission of this Zionist-backed organization is to wage an unholy war against Hadith and the Sunnah of Sayyidina wa Mawlana Muhammad ((may Peace Be Upon Him)) while professing to follow nothing but the Holy Qur'an.

Many Muslims have heard the name "Rashad Khalifa," but few know the true identity of this wretch. The most interesting fact about this dajjal is that he was NEVER Muslim. Rashad Khalifa was a Coptic Christian from Egypt His real name was Richard Kalif and he was registered as Richard both in Egypt and in America, but at no point in his cursed life did he ever become Muslim. In order to establish a cult in America and gain flexibility, the Zionists funded him to establish his following in Tucson, Arizona. He was paid by the Jews not only to spread his cult in America, but to produce his own (uneducated and fully opinionated) "commentary" of the Holy Qur'an, with the intent of levying an attack against Hadith & Sunnah and branding those Muslims who follow the Sunnah of Sayyidina Rasulullah (may peace of God be upon him) as being "false Muslims" and heretics.

Many Muslims have heard the name "Rashad Khalifa," but few know the true identity of this wretch. The most interesting fact about this dajjal is that he was NEVER Muslim. Rashad Khalifa was a Coptic Christian from Egypt Such an example of this is found on page 94 of his commentary, titled Quran: The Final Scripture, where he wrote:

"When they grow up in an environment that equates goodness with belief in God and the Hereafter, consequently this person may profess belief in God and the Hereafter; and in order to be good while in fact, his innermost convictions are contrary. [he then makes reference to the Holy Qur'an, referring to ayats unrelated to his feeble point] God teaches us in these verses that the invention of Hadith and/or Sunnah was designed to distinguish the true Muslims from the false Muslims. The true Muslims upheld the Qur'an, the whole Qur'an, and nothing but the Qur'an."

Of course, he means the "false Muslims" uphold the Sunnah of Sayyidina wa Mawlana Muhammad ((may Peace Be Upon Him)). Keep in mind, Richard, alias "Rashad Khalifa" was a Coptic Christian.

In his own arrogance and filth, Richard claimed to be a Messanger of God, in the same manner the dajjal by the name Ghulam Ahmad Qadian did. In his retarded claim to Messengerhood, he declared himself to be receptive of revelation (revelation, which is specifically for the Prophets of Allah) and that Allah has revealed to him a "new Sunnah," asserting that the Sunnah of Sayyidina Rasulullah ((may Peace Be Upon Him)) was invented by Shaytan. May Allah give that Coptic wretch what he deserves! The most popular of the claims of this false prophet is the fitnah of the "miracle" of the number 19. Though a very absurd and ridiculous claim the "Submitters" make, Muslims should be well aware that the "number 19 phenomena" of Mr. Richard and his "mathematical scheme of Qur'an" is purely his freemason insertions into religion. It is important to know that most of his statistics were totally false. Yes, like so many other cults, the Submitters are heavily tied into Masonic orders. In a very wasteful effort he and his cult followers produced many books in their pathetic attempt to support his ideologies with contorted "Islamic history" which is "coincidentally" written by Zionists whose aims are to defame and desecrate the name of al-Islam.

His cult now assumes new names in order to disguise their program. They now go by the following names:

1. The Submitters (most commonly used name by them as they replace ISLAM with "Submission." Since they know very well that REAL Muslims will undergo hardship and many trials due to the fact that they are Muslim, they don't call themselves MUSLIM, but call themselves Submitters.)
2. International Community of Submitters
3. The Submission
4. Qur'anic Islam Movement (an offshoot of Mr. Richard's group from Pakistan)

As previously stated, the mission of these kuffar is to attack one of the basic structures of Islam, which is the Sunnah of The Holy Last Messenger ((may Peace Be Upon Him)). There are numerous beliefs and assertions these shayateen make which clearly expose their anti-Islamic agenda and pagan beliefs. For example, 1.) They believe that Sayyidina Muhammad ((may Peace Be Upon Him)) wrote the Holy Qur'an himself. 2.) They disbelieve the Kalimah's second half, which is MUHAMMAD is the Messanger of Allah. 3.) They reject many verses of the Holy Qur'an. Bear in mind that there is no difference between their beliefs and that of Iblis (Satan), because Iblis accepts the first half of the Kalimah (Laa ilaaha illallah), but rejects the second half.

No matter what state Sayyidina Muhammad ((may Peace Be Upon Him)) was in, his blessed words were either revelation or in the light of revelation, and the Almighty Allah proves it to all of mankind in Surat an-Najm were He says:

"And he (Muhammad) does not say anything from his own hawaa (desires, wishes). Indeed he says what is revelation or in light of revelation."

Anyone who disbelieves in this doesn't believe in Holy Qur'an.

The followers of Mr. Richard Kalif, alias Rashad Khalifa (may Allah give that wretch what he deserves, no matter what name he assumed), are neither Muslim nor are they to be regarded as Islamic in any shape or form, for their only motive is to rebel against Islam via attacking Hadith, Sunnah, and the blessed personality of Sayyidina wa Mawlana Muhammad ((may Peace Be Upon Him)). They come in the guise of people who strongly attack non-Muslim religions, but Allah exposes them for who they are by their own words, as they slide in attacks against common sense Shari'ah issues, such as eating pork or haram meat, etc. May Allah protect Muslims from the satanic rhetoric of this cult and other Zionist organizations bent on destroying al-Islam from the inside as well as the outside. Aameen.
