Al-Fil (The Elephant)

Around 571 ac, the Abyssinians organized an army in Yemen to raid Makkah and destroy the Kaaba, God’s holy house. The army included several elephants, which were to be used in combat for the first time in Arabia.

The news left the Arabs of Makkah despondent, totally unprepared to resist such an attack. Many of them took flight to the mountains, leaving the Ka’bah as well as their own homes to their fate. For the Christian Abyssinians, the whole campaign was a misguided and pointless one. There was no justification for it, since they had a cathedral in Sana’a, where they used to worship, and could have left the Arabs to worship at the Ka’bah.

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)
