This book was released on 2020-09 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Life After Death (Barzakh) In Islam Based from The Holy Quran Bilingual Edition In English and Germany Languange Hardcover Version. Barzakh is an Arabic word meaning "obstacle", "hindrance", "separation", or "barrier" designates a place separating the living from the hereafter; a veil between the dead and their return to world of the living, but also to a phase happening between death and resurrection. Barzakh may, according to Ghazali, also be the place for those, who go neither to hell or to heaven. According to Ibn Hazm, Barzakh is also the place for the unborn souls, existing in the lowest heaven, where an angel blows the soul into wombs. Mentioned only three times in The Holy Quran, and just once specifically as the barrier between the corporeal and ethereal, Barzakh is portrayed as a place in which, after death, the spirit is separated from the body - freed to contemplate the wrongdoing of its former life. Despite the gain of recognizance, it cannot utilize action. The other two occurrences refer to Barzakh as an impenetrable barrier between fresh and salt water. While fresh and salt water may intermingle, an ocean remains distinct from a river. In hadith, Ibn al-Qayyim cites that, albeit not mentioned in the Quran, souls in Al-Barzakh would be grouped with others matching in purity or impurity. In Islam, the soul and the body are independent of each other. This is significant in Barzakh, because only a person's soul goes to Barzakh and not their physical body. Since one's soul is divorced from their body in Barzakh, the belief is that no progress or improvements to one's past life can be made. If a person experienced a life of sin and worldly pleasures, one cannot try to perform good deeds in order to reach Jannah Paradise. In Sufism the Barzakh or Alam-e-Araf is not only where the human soul resides after death but it is also a place that the soul can visit during sleep and meditation.
Download or read book Description of Afterlife the Quran written by Farooq Mirza and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-04-11 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Quran is a unique book, and unlike most other books, it does not have a beginning, middle, or end. It is not arranged according to different topics or subject matter. The traditional Quran is arranged in accordance with the inner requirements of its message as a whole and not in the chronological order in which the individual passages were revealed. The seemingly abrupt transition from one subject to another is also in accord with the Quranic principle of deliberately interweaving moral exhortation with practical legislation. This in pursuance of the teaching that man's life-spiritual and physical, individual and social-is one integral whole, and therefore requires simultaneous consideration of all its aspects if the concept of the good life is to be realized. In accordance with the system prevailing throughout the Quran, a lengthy passage dealing with purely moral or ethical questions is usually followed by verses relating to social legislation and this with a view to bringing out the intimate connection between man's spiritual life and his social behavior. Rearrangement according to the Subject Matter The Quran as written was meant for the common people to read in its original order and to immerse themselves in it. But for scholars, lawyers, and anyone who needs to study a particular issue, it would be handy to have it arranged by subject matter. For example, the subject of divorce is discussed in the Quran in chapters 2, 33, 58, 60, and 65. Compiling all the verses about divorce in one place gives the reader a quick reference.The Quran for the Western ReadersThe Quran in its original format is likely to be confusing to a Western reader. Thomas Carlyle's a renowned Orientalist described the Quran as "a wearisome confused jumble, crude, incondite; endless iterations, long-windedness, entanglement; most crude, incondite [sic]; - insupportable stupidity, in short!" Carlyle was by no means an Islamophobe; as a matter of fact, his essay "The Hero as Prophet" was a rare objective analysis of Muhammad's life. A discussion of varying subjects within the same chapter appear unconnected and may cause confusion and misunderstanding, especially for those not familiar with the uniqueness of the Quran. For the Western readers, the Quran according to the subject matter will be much easier to read and understand. Al-ghaybThis Divine Writ-let there be no doubt about it-is [meant to be] guidance for all the God-conscious who believe in [the existence of] that which is beyond the reach of human perception. (2:2-3) Al-ghayb, commonly and erroneously translated as "the Unseen," is used in the Quran to denote all those sectors or hidden realities that lie beyond the range of human perception and cannot, therefore, be proven or disproven by scientific observation or even adequately addressed within the accepted categories of speculative thought. The concept of the existence of a realm that is beyond the reach of human perception, constitutes the fundamental premise for understanding the call of the Quran. It is, indeed, a basic principle of almost every religion, for God Himself belongs to the realm of al-ghayb. All truly religious cognition arises from the fact that only a small segment of reality is open to man's perception and imagination, and by far the larger part of it escapes his comprehension altogether. For instance, metaphysical subjects such as God's attributes, the ultimate meaning of time and eternity, the resurrection of the dead, the Day of Judgment, paradise and hell, the nature of the beings or forces described as angels and Jinn, and so forth, all fall into the category of al-ghayb. Only a person who is convinced that the ultimate reality comprises far more than our observable environment can attain a belief in God and, thus, to a belief that life has meaning and purpose.

Download or read book Human Souls Journey After Death In Islam written by Muhammad Vandestra and published by Blurb. This book was released on 2019-05-22 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine yourself at the moment of your death. What thoughts cross your mind? Memories of family and friends? Panic? Regrets? Remembrance of Allah? What is death? What happens to us after we die? What is life in the Hereafter like, this new and strange world after death? Do we lose consciousness of this life? Where does our soul go? Do we feel and think the same? The ineffable feeling of crossing the boundary between this world and the next cannot be described in words, nor imagined in the mind, but can be understood only through divine revealation and inspiration. Let us for the next few moments seek an understanding of this, death, the only certainty in life. Sometimes we may not want to know about the processes that occur after we die because we are afraid or don't want to think about it. However, this is not the attitude of a Muslim. We should be foremost in learning and understanding death, so we can live our lives accordingly. The prophet (saw) said, "Live in this world as though you are a stranger or a traveler (passing through it)." [Muslim] We are on a journey and should know about the whole journey's itinerary, not just one part. Death is inevitable. It is the one thing that we can be certain about in life. We are born to die. Every soul shall have a taste of death no matter who they are. This is confirmed for us many times in the Quran: "Every soul shall have a taste of death: and only on the Day of Judgement shall you be paid your full recompense." (Quran 3:185) "Every soul shall have a taste of death: and We test you by evil and by good, by way of trial. To Us must you return." (21:35) "Every soul shall have a taste of death: In the end to Us shall you be brought back." (29:57) Death is not pure annihilation, but rather both the living and dead are aware, but there is a difference that can't be compared. Death is merely movement from one world to another. It can be described as a journey through a wormhole to a separate dimension of existence.
Download or read book Contemporary Bioethics written by Mohammed Ali Al-Bar and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-05-27 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the common principles of morality and ethics derived from divinely endowed intuitive reason through the creation of al-fitr' a (nature) and human intellect (al-‘aql). Biomedical topics are presented and ethical issues related to topics such as genetic testing, assisted reproduction and organ transplantation are discussed. Whereas these natural sources are God’s special gifts to human beings, God’s revelation as given to the prophets is the supernatural source of divine guidance through which human communities have been guided at all times through history. The second part of the book concentrates on the objectives of Islamic religious practice – the maqa' sid – which include: Preservation of Faith, Preservation of Life, Preservation of Mind (intellect and reason), Preservation of Progeny (al-nasl) and Preservation of Property. Lastly, the third part of the book discusses selected topical issues, including abortion, assisted reproduction devices, genetics, organ transplantation, brain death and end-of-life aspects. For each topic, the current medical evidence is followed by a detailed discussion of the ethical issues involved.

Since one's soul is divorced from their body in Barzakh, the belief is that no progress or improvements to one's past life can be made. If a person experienced a life of sin and worldly pleasures, one cannot try to perform good deeds in order to reach Jannah Paradise. Whatever one does in his or her lifetime is final and cannot be changed or altered in Barzakh. However, there is belief that the fire which represents the own bad deeds can already be seen in Barzakh, and that the spiritual pain caused by this can lead to purification of the soul. In Sufism the Barzakh or Alam-e-Araf is not only where the human soul resides after death but it is also a place that the soul can visit during sleep and meditation. Barzakh ist ein arabisches Wort, das "Hindernis", "Hemmnis", "Trennung" oder "Barriere" bedeutet und einen Ort bezeichnet, der die Lebenden vom Jenseits trennt; ein Schleier zwischen den Toten und ihrer Rückkehr in die Welt der Lebenden, aber auch zu einer Phase, die sich zwischen Tod und Auferstehung abspielt. Barzakh kann, so Ghazali, auch der Ort für diejenigen sein, die weder in die Hölle noch in den Himmel kommen. Nach Ibn Hazm ist Barzakh auch der Ort für die ungeborenen Seelen, die im untersten Himmel existieren, wo ein Engel die Seele in den Leib bläst. Im Koran wird Barzakh nur dreimal erwähnt, und nur einmal ausdrücklich als die Barriere zwischen dem Körperlichen und dem Ätherischen. Barzakh wird als ein Ort dargestellt, an dem der Geist nach dem Tod vom Körper getrennt wird - befreit, um über das Fehlverhalten seines früheren Lebens nachzudenken. Trotz des Zugewinns an Anerkennung kann er sich keine Handlung zunutze machen. Die beiden anderen Vorkommnisse beziehen sich auf Barzakh als undurchdringliche Barriere zwischen Süß- und Salzwasser. Während Süß- und Salzwasser sich vermischen können, bleibt ein Ozean von einem Fluss getrennt.
Download or read book Life After Death written by Alan Segal and published by Image. This book was released on 2010-06-23 with total page 882 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A magisterial work of social history, Life After Death illuminates the many different ways ancient civilizations grappled with the question of what exactly happens to us after we die. In a masterful exploration of how Western civilizations have defined the afterlife, Alan F. Segal weaves together biblical and literary scholarship, sociology, history, and philosophy. A renowned scholar, Segal examines the maps of the afterlife found in Western religious texts and reveals not only what various cultures believed but how their notions reflected their societies’ realities and ideals, and why those beliefs changed over time. He maintains that the afterlife is the mirror in which a society arranges its concept of the self. The composition process for Judaism, Christianity, and Islam begins in grief and ends in the victory of the self over death. Arguing that in every religious tradition the afterlife represents the ultimate reward for the good, Segal combines historical and anthropological data with insights gleaned from religious and philosophical writings to explain the following mysteries: why the Egyptians insisted on an afterlife in heaven, while the body was embalmed in a tomb on earth; why the Babylonians viewed the dead as living in underground prisons; why the Hebrews remained silent about life after death during the period of the First Temple, yet embraced it in the Second Temple period (534 B.C.E. –70 C.E.); and why Christianity placed the afterlife in the center of its belief system. He discusses the inner dialogues and arguments within Judaism and Christianity, showing the underlying dynamic behind them, as well as the ideas that mark the differences between the two religions. In a thoughtful examination of the influence of biblical views of heaven and martyrdom on Islamic beliefs, he offers a fascinating perspective on the current troubling rise of Islamic fundamentalism. In tracing the organic, historical relationships between sacred texts and communities of belief and comparing the visions of life after death that have emerged throughout history, Segal sheds a bright, revealing light on the intimate connections between notions of the afterlife, the societies that produced them, and the individual’s search for the ultimate meaning of life on earth.
