In the name of Allah the benificeint, the merciful. (bissmillah-hir-rahman-hir-raheem)
I start this by saying that as long as I have been here the only topics to come up are about pointing fingers and abusive language but never any topic about Allah and his greatness.
We are all muslims and I feel debating about Why we do Matam is totally out of the point instead of differences we should see the similatities(qibla, One God and a rasool)and I know that if we start to bridge the gap we may again become a force to be reconed with so let us strat this new era with love,brotherhood and respect and Of course Allah!!
The Topic I have chosen is About Allah so we all can see that atleast we agree on one thinkg and if we agree we have made a great leap forward and after that I haope there will be no looking back.
So here it goes…
Belief in one God is the cardinal principle of Islam. This is an eternal truth. The idea of the existence of one God is an open secret embodied in every part of the universe around us. Think about the rotation of the day and night, of the changing seasons and the growing crops of fruit, vegetables and flowers, observe the perfectness of the creation of the sun, moon and stars which decorate the sky. All these signs spread around us furnish an everlasting proof of the existence of a Creator who is all-powerful and perfect in Himself. Just as a good piece of art leads us to think of the capability and excellence of the artist, similarly every single item of the universe around us leads us to think of and believe in the existence of a perfect and powerful Creator and Sustainer who is the Master of all creation.
Secondly, it is essential that all these divine attributes and powers must be vested in one Being: it is impossible for two or more personalities having equal powers and attributes to co-exist. They are bound to collide. Therefore, there must be one and only one Supreme Being having control over all others. You cannot think of two governors for the same province or two supreme commanders of the army. Similarly, the distribution of these powers among deities, so that, for instance, one of them is all-knowledge, the other all-providence and still another life giver and each having an independent domain is also unthinkable. The universe is an indivisible whole and each one of such deities will be dependent upon others in the execution of his task. Lack of co-ordination is bound to occur, and if this happened, the world would fall to pieces. These attributes are also untransferable. It is not possible that a certain attribute might be present in a certain deity at one time and at another time be found in another deity. A divine being who is incapable of remaining alive himself cannot give life to others.
The more you reflect on the problem, the firmer will your conviction be that all these divine powers and attributes must exist in one and the same Being alone. Thus, polytheism and atheism are a form of ignorance and cannot stand rational scrutiny. The facts of life and nature do not fit in with them. They automatically bring men to reality, that is ‘THE EXISTENCE OF ONE GOD’.
Belief in One God (ALLAH) is obligatory and the most important article of faith. Without this belief a person can never be considered to be a true Muslim.
Plz everyone read the last sentance and you will see what the differecnce between you and me is. And that difference is almost nothing!
Wa-Salaam and may Allah give his blessings on the Rasool and his progney
