love and peace for all home about us articles on islam basic about islam contact us love and peace for all feeds posts comments islam and science thank you islam october 24 2009 by hidayah centre like many other authors briffault recognizes the immense contribution of muslims to civilization and its influence on the european renaissance unlike most other authors however briffault realizes that this contribution was stimulated motivated and guided by a new spirit insufficient attention however has been given to the source and roots of this new spirit that emerged suddenly and powerfully in the seventh century initially the arabs were not known for having made any significant contribution to science and technology nor was the sandy mostly arid arabia known as a center of learning and research what then could explain the extraordinary transformation of a people from that state into pioneers of progress and apostles of learning in diverse fields of knowledge what happened in the seventh century that suddenly put this transformation into motion there is no viable explanation except for the emergence of islam and its monotheistic concept of allah the source of all bounties this is what we will be examining in what follows qur anic inducements to study and explore the following are a few examples from the qur an which clearly urge research discovery development and improvement of the quality of life and in the earth are tracts diverse though neighboring and gardens of vines and fields sown with corn and palm trees growing out of single roots or otherwise watered with the same water yet some of them we make more excellent than others to eat behold verily in these things are signs for those who understand ar ra d 13 4 see you not that allah sends down rain from the sky and leads it through springs in the earth then he causes to grow therewith produce of various colors then it withers you will see it grow yellow then he makes it dry up and crumble away truly in this is a message of remembrance to persons of understanding az zumar 39 21 it is allah who has subjected the sea to you that ships may sail through it by his command that you may seek of his bounty and that you may be grateful al jathiyah 45 12 it is he who made the sea subject that you may eat thereof flesh that is fresh and tender and that you may extract there from ornaments to wear and you see the ships therein that plough the waves that you may seek thus of the bounty of allah and that you may be grateful an nahl 16 14 and cattle he has created for you from them you derive warmth and numerous benefits and of their meat you eat and you have a sense of pride and beauty in them as you drive them home in the evening and as you lead them forth to pasture in the morning and they carry their heavy loads to lands that you could not otherwise reach except with souls distressed for your lord is indeed most kind most merciful and he has created horses mules and donkeys for you to ride and use for show and he has created other things about which you have no knowledge an nahl 16 5 8 it should be noted that the above quotes deal with the fundamental resources agriculture water fisheries and animal resources in a sweeping statement the qur an indicates that everything on earth and even all that is in the heavens was created for the benefit of mankind it is he who has created for you all things that are on earth moreover his design comprehended the heavens for he gave order and perfection to the seven firmaments and of all things he has perfected knowledge al baqarah 2 29 and he has subjected to you as from him all that is in the heavens and on earth behold in that are signs indeed for those who reflect al jathiyah 45 13 the qur anic exhortations do not limit themselves to physical resources they encourage the study and understanding of natural laws such as the alternation of day and night forecasting rainfall and astronomical phenomena continue

fallot looks as unlike a terrorist suspect as one could possibly imagine a petite and demure white frenchwoman chatting with friends on a cell phone indistinguishable from any other young woman in the café where she sits sipping coffee and that is exactly why european antiterrorist authorities have their eyes on thousands like her across the continent ms fallot is a recent convert to islam in the eyes of the police that makes her potentially dangerous the death of muriel degauque a belgian convert who blew herself up in a suicide attack on us troops in iraq last month has drawn fresh attention to the rising number of islamic converts in europe most of them women continue reading posted in embrace islam leave a comment how to distinguish between god s words and human s words may 16 2009 by hidayah centre god s words as we marvel at the greatness of god s creation of the universe and his other creations it should come to our mind that god s word should be in perfection as the rest of his creations are therefore it is natural to expect of god s words to have the characteristics of being 1 divine no errors the words of god should be in harmony with his divinity i e it should be free from errors allah says in the holy quran will they not then ponder on the holy quran if it had been from other than god they would have found therein much contradiction and incongruity al nisa 4 82 say if all of humanity and the jinn were to gather together to produce the like of this holy quran they could not produce the like of it even if they backed each other with help and support al israa 17 88 perfect guidance if the words of god proposes guidance then that guidance should naturally be perfect in this respect allah says continue reading posted in uncategorized leave a comment what is fitrah may 1 2009 by hidayah centre the definition of fitrah by yasien mohamed extracted with slight modifications from fitrah the islamic concept of human nature 1996 ta ha publishers ltd in attempting a definition of fitrah i give an exposition of its linguistic and religious meaning the religious understanding of fitrah is based on the positive interpretation of fitrah suffice it to say that linguistic and positive religious explanations have one thing in common both define fitrah as an inborn natural predisposition which cannot change and which exists at birth in all human beings what makes our religious understanding positive is that it not only acknowledges fitrah as a natural predisposition but also one which is inclined towards right action and submission to allah the one god after discussing the implications for human responsibility i compare for the benefit of western readers the islamic concept of original goodness with the christian concept of original sin i argue that the doctrine of original sin from an islamic point of view cannot be reconciled with the notion of divine mercy nor the human responsibility since the doctrine of original sin features significantly in the christian concept of human nature and as islam and christianity are the world s largest revealed religions this aspect of their creeds presents an interesting contrast well worth investigating 1 the linguistic meaning of fitrah every new born child is born in a state of fitrah then his parents make him a jew a christian or a magian just as an animal is born intact do you observe any among them that are maimed at birth 1 continue reading posted in about islam leave a comment who is allah may 1 2009 by hidayah centre in arabic allah means literally the one god different languages give the same thing different names in the last decade a growing phenomenon was seen on the internet and in published literature where allah is said to be the moon god that arabs worshiped and the kaaba the muslims holy place at mecca is his temple it is alleged that although islam is a monotheistic religion the muslims only god is simply another idol that muhammad peace be upon him chose or in some versions of the story he made it up this story is nullified by many facts prophet abraham built the kaaba for people to worship god while pagan arabs admitted this fact and even kept the stone where he used to stand to build the kaaba abraham s station they brought idols to the kaaba and worshiped them to get closer to abraham s lord allah god of gods continue reading posted in
