Concept Of Religion And Mankind (Part 2)

Allah promises both groups, the Mu’minoon and Muhsinoon, Gardens of Bliss. They are promised the highest support that the righteous can attain: the assertion that Allah is with them. This is indicated in Allah’s words: “Truly, Allah is with those who fear Him (keep their duty unto Him) and those who are Muhsinun (good-doers).” (Surah An-Nahl: 128)

On the other hand, the wrongdoers are expected to face punishment in this world and in the Hereafter; their account is up to Allah. The wrongdoers cannot escape from the punishment of Allah. This is indicated in Allah’s words: ‘Say: “Tell me, if the punishment of Allah comes to you suddenly (during the night) or openly (during the day), will any be destroyed except the Zalimun (polytheists and wrongdoing people)?”‘ (9 Surat Al-Anam: 47)

Concept Of Religion And Mankind (Part 1)

All mankind descended from Adam (AS), and Adam has a position of honor with Allah. All mankind is created to worship Him and Him alone. Being slaves of Allah constitutes the essence of mankind. Man cannot therefore attain to his true humanity and acquire peace of mind unless he realizes this aim for which he was created. From the beginning, when Allah created the heavens and the earth as well as Jinns and human beings, he clarified the wisdom of this creation by saying: ‘And I (Allah) created not the Jinns and the men except they should worship Me (Alone)’. (Surat Adh Dhatyat: 56)

Then Allah illustrated that whoever follows this Guidance shall never fear nor shall grieve, and whoever disobeys His commands indeed will be astray. Thus, when the first human being to be created (Adam: AS)

Drinking Alcohol (Part 2)

Drinking Alcohol (Part 1)

Wine is forbidden as a medicine. Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) related, “Once, one of my daughters was ill, so I made wine in a container for her. Then, the Prophet (peace be upon him) entered while it was boiling. He asked, “What is this, Umm Salamah (radi Allahu anha)?” She replied, “It is just a medicine for my daughter.” The Prophet (peace be upon him) then said, “Allah has not made a cure for you in what He has

Drinking Alcohol (Part 1)

Allah, Most High says, {O ye who believe! Intoxicants and gambling, sacrificing to stones and (divination by) arrows, is an abomination, of Satan’s handiwork: Eschew such (abomination) that ye may prosper. Satan’s plan is (but) to excite enmity and hatred between you, with intoxicants and gambling, and hinder you from the remembrance of Allah, and from Prayer: will ye not then abstain?} (Al-Ma’idah: 90-91)

Thus, Allah the Exalted forbids wine and warns us of approaching it.

The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “A void wine, it is the mother of abomination. ” (It is a part of a hadith reported by Ad-Darqutni, An-Nasa’i, and AI-Baihaqi)

Quraysh

Some commentators view this surah as complementary to, or a continuation of, Surah al-Fil, which precedes it.

Being strategically situated astride Europe and Asia, the Arabian Peninsula has, since early times, been a vital trade route between these two continents. As renowned traders, the sixth-century Arabs formed an important link between the Romans to their north and the Indians to their east and south. Regular trade caravans would cross the peninsula in both directions, carrying all manner of goods and merchandise.

The Quraysh people of Makkah and its surrounding towns were to benefit greatly from this most fortuitous situation. For the good and protection of the Quraysh in their winter and summer journeys, they should worship the Lord of this House [the Ka’bah] who has provided them with food to satisfy their hunger, and security from all danger. (1–4)

Peace and security are a prerequisite for prosperity and political and economic freedom. With their strong and tenacious character, the Arabs truly epitomized a free spirit, which, in turn, made them most suitable candidates for shouldering the message of Islam and passing it on to the rest of humanity.
