O Devotee of The Christ!

By Fahad Iqbal
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم O devotee of The Christ! We have question, (1) seeking answer from one with comprehension. ** أَعُبَّادَ المَسِيحِ لَنَا سُؤَالٌ...نُرِيدُ جَوَابَهُ مِمَّنْ وَعَاهُ When God died, by deeds of a nation... they put him to death! What God is this, then? إذا ماتَ الإِلهُ بِصُنْع قومٍ...أمَاتُوهُ فَما هذَا الإِلهُ؟ Did it please him, with him, what they had done? If they did please him, for them is good news, then! وَهَلْ أرضاه ما نَالُوهُ مِنْهُ؟...فبُشْرَاهمْ إذا نالُوا رِضَاهُ And if they displeased him, with what they had done... their might prevailed over his, then?! وَإِنْ سَخِطَ الذِي فَعَلُوهُ فيه...فَقُوَّتُهُمْ إِذًا أوْهَتْ قُوَاهُ The Listener, The Answer-er of invocation... Without God, did continue the creation? وَهَلْ بَقِيَ الوُجُودُ بِلَا إِلهٍ...سَمِيعٍ يَسْتَجِيبُ لِمَنْ دَعَاهُ؟ Did cease...

Belief, Religion and People

By Fahad Iqbal
بسم الله الرحمان الرحيم Belief sets the outlook and approach one would take in course of an action. For example, a person who believes that there is no hope left in life commits suicide. Religion on the other hand, is typically set of beliefs and rituals which define it. It is common for people to ascribe to a religion but not believe in some or all of it's belief. Religion identifies perhaps the pool of people you are likely to interact with, although belief when openly expressed forces stronger identity among its adherents and defines their collective course of action. This emphasizes importance of having correct belief, as it determines the goal a person would pursue, approach one would take and ultimately determine success and failure. Belief which distinguishes people, essentially relates to unseen and the greatest unseen, which none can deny is Allah سبحانه و تعالى, Creator of heavens and the earth; other one being life after death. Correct belief about these caus...

Tolerance, Intolerance and Acceptance

By Fahad Iqbal
بِسْم الله الرحمان الرحيم Tolerance is being patient at things or behaviors that you don't like. For example, my neighbor kept beating drum whole night, but I tolerated it. Intolerance is the opposite - not being patient with a thing or behavior. Like one would say "I cannot tolerate that smell". Acceptance, on the other hand, is to approve of a thing or behavior, without showing any dislike towards it. Each of these can be good or bad depending on situation. Judge being tolerant on a murder is bad, for example. However, when we hear of tolerance between religions or beliefs, people actually expect approval; which would mean essentially, to give up ones stand on a particular topic and agree with other and not show any dislike towards it. If this was the case then there would be no difference between them. Tolerance is to maintain a stance on a subject and disagree with others without losing patience or harming anyone. A Muslim is required to be tolera...
