Book excerpt: Life is a journey. Every one of us is gifted a set amount of time on this earth, and we all must make the best of it before that time is up. While none of us knows exactly how long we have, what is amazing is that per unit time, we all get the exact same amount every unit. We all get different total amounts, but no one's hour is discernibly different from another person's hour. Yet, that is the only real similarity, as some people simply waste entire decades away, while others perform deeds in a few hours or even minutes that last for all of eternity! Some people live life so unremarkably that their existence and non-existence is almost the same to others; while some literally change the course of history. This book is meant to inspire us all on this journey of life so that we make the best use of our time. Each topic is chosen to be a quick, easy read with a message that is useful to people at any stage of this journey. These topics were all chosen and selected from khutbahs and talks that I've given over the last almost three decades of public speaking, with ex-tensive editing for content, along with the necessary stylistic editing and footnotes that a written work deserves

Download or read book In the Company of the Quran an Explanation of S rah Al Kahf written by Furhan Zubairi and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-01-08 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are a few narrations from the Prophet ﷺ that encourage Muslims to recite Sūrah al-Kahf on a weekly basis. That is why it is a common practice across the world to recite Sūrah al-Kahf on Fridays. This is a beautiful practice that helps strengthen one's relationship with the Quran and builds a culture of recitation. However, more important than simply reciting the Sūrah as a ritual is connecting with it emotionally, intellectually, spiritually, and trying our best to understand its message and apply its guidance into our daily lives. This work explores the meanings, lessons, reminders, benefits, morals, and guidance of Sūrah al-Kahf based on classical and contemporary sources.

Download or read book Pearls from Surah Al Kahf written by Yasir Qadhi and published by Pearls from the Qur'an. This book was released on 2020-03-04 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Qur'an is full of parables. Each one, when its meaning is unpacked and understood, offers wisdom and guidance. Surah Kahf, chapter 18 from the Qur'an, is particularly thought provoking, and Muslims are advised to read it at least once a week. But why? And what can we gain from it? In this book Yasir Qadhi leads us through Surah Kahf, unfolding the lines, stories and symbols that have inspired people for over a thousand years: the people of the cave, Prophet Musa's momentous encounter with Khidr, the two men and their gardens, and Gog and Magog. And surely We have explained matters in people in the Qur'an in diverse ways, using all manners of parables. (Qur'an 18:54) Through Yasir Qadhi's unmistakeable voice, modern Muslims may glimpse some of the Qur'an's profound meaning. Say: "If the sea were to become ink to record the Words of my Lord, indeed the sea would all be used up before the Words of my Lord are exhausted..." (Qur'an 18:109)

Download or read book A Thirteenth eighteenth Century Quranic Commentary on the Chapters of The All merciful The Event and Iron from The Immense Ocean written by Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad Ibn ʻAjībah and published by Fons Vitae Quranic Commentarie. This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing commentary on three oft-recited chapters of the Holy Qur'an, this excerpt of the monumental discourse by 18th-century mystic and scholar Ahmad ibn 'Ajiba presents both an example of Islamic erudition based on traditional sources as well as insight into his own personal journey of discovery. Each verse is expounded upon with an exoteric explanation as well as related with an esoteric commentary to the mystic path of Islam, Sufism. As one of the few scholarly translations of traditional Qur'anic exegesis, this volume affords the previously unacquainted access not only to how educated Muslims have understood the dominant themes of these three chapters since the earliest days of Islam but also to how traditional Sufic sources have viewed the same themes in respect to the microcosm of the soul and the journey towards God.

Download or read book Surah Al Kahf written by Authenticate Ulama's Organization and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-08-17 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surah al Kahf (kahf meaning cave) is a Makkan surah, and consists of one hundred and ten verses arranged in twelve sections. The surah has been named kahf due to a major theme therein describing the ordeal of some youths who were forced to flee into a cave to escape the persecution of their pagan village and leader. The surah then narrates the story of the Ashab al-Kahf (companions of the Cave). These companions were a group of youths who had faith in Allah Ta'ala at a time when all around them did not believe in Him. Allah Ta'ala protected them by giving them sanctuary from the oppressive rule of the king in a cave. Allah Ta'ala then made their ordeal a lesson for eternity by putting them to sleep for a period of three hundred years, to escape the tyranny of their time to awake in a time where their example would serve to strengthen the faith of the living. The surah then describes a dialogue between two people. One was arrogant, and the other was God-fearing. Through the dialogue the surah establishes the absurdity of unfounded hopes in this world, simply because there is no guarantee in man getting his way - as he does not possess the power to make anything happen. The former boasts of his wealth and gardens, and he believes that his wealth and power is everlasting, and even the Day of Judgment "if it ever comes", will not deprive him of his wealth and possessions. Allah Ta'ala makes it clear that the things of this world are perishable and only faith and good deeds will survive to be profitable. The surah then narrates the Story of the Prophet Musa A.S. (Moses) and the mysterious servant of Allah, Khidr. The incident highlights the limitations of man's knowledge, especially in regard to what is beyond his sight, whether it be in distance or in the time that is yet to pass. The surah concludes with Allah's Ta'ala command to the Messenger PBUH to declare that he is a human being and that when he proclaims Allah's unity, he does so because this knowledge has been revealed to him by Allah Ta'ala. and he who seeks success in the hereafter should do good deeds and not ascribe any partner to Allah Ta'ala.

But with the legacy of her mother's love, her family's support, and the guidance of her faith, she manages to overcome the searing pain and use her newfound strength to bring joy to the lives of others, showing them that after death wings can expand.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the war on Islam intensifies, and as the day approaches when the imposter Euro-Jewish State of Israel wouldmake its bid to become the ruling State in the world, and the false Messiah (i.e., Dājjal) would rule the world from Jerusalem and declare that he is the true Messiah, I fear that there would be many, particularly governments whichdeclare their friendship for USA and hence for Israel, who would want to ban books on the Qur'ān.I therefore pray most humbly, and ask my gentle readers to also kindly join in the prayer, that Allah Most Highmight protect books (such as this humble quartet of books on Sūrah al-Kahf) that use the blessed Qur'ān to explain, toexpose and to challenge those in the godless modern age who are waging wicked war on Islam.

Ifany such books have already been written and published, they must be very few indeed.

Download or read book The Miracle of the Qur an written by Yasir Qadhi and published by Tertib Publishing. This book was released on 2020-01-06 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Qur'an is the greatest miracle of God (Allah) and the Qur'an is the proof of the truthfulness of Islam. It is the standing and everlasting miracle, but very rarely, have we heard how is it a miracle? The Qur'an is the ultimate miracle of our Prophet Muhammad (Sallahualaihi wassalam - S.A.W). It is such a miracle that all the other miracles are considered trivial and inconsequential compared to the Qur'an. This is because the Qur'an is so powerful, so bright and blinding that no matter how bright the other miracles are; when you have the sun, the stars become useless. In this book, Dr. Yasir Qadhi discussed on the miracles of the Qur'an that we either have never acknowledge or we often overlooked. The miracles of the Qur'an are endless and the points are abundance to be mentioned.

Amīn!As war on Islam intensifies and the time approaches when theimposter Euro-Jewish State of Israel makes its bid to become theruling State in the world, and Dajjāl the false Messiah would rule theworld from Jerusalem and declare that he is the true Messiah, I fearthat there would be many who would ban books on the Qur'ān. Itherefore pray most humbly, and ask my gentle readers to also kindlyjoin in the prayer, that Allah Most High might protect books (such asthis humble quartet of books on Sūrah al-Kahf) that employ theblessed Qur'ān to expose those in the godless modern age who arewaging unjust war on Islam and Muslims. Āmīn.A mysterious Euro-world-order with a Jewish-Christian alliancewages war on Islam on behalf of the Euro-Jewish State of Israel. Ifthere is any merit at all in this book it can, perhaps, be located in itsrole as a very humble pioneering work that might possibly inspireothers, more competent than this writer, to a more comprehensiveeffort in using this Sūrah of the Qur'ān to explain that world today.

Download or read book Hearts Turn written by Michael Sugich and published by 978-0-9893640-0-3. This book was released on 2019-01-29 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Hearts Turn' is a singular and gripping exploration of the act of 'tawba', a Qur'anic term commonly translated as repentance. In English, repentance is a forbidding word that suggests a puritanical finality. But in Arabic the term 'tawba' is dynamic, meaning to 'turn' or 'return'. 'At-Tawwab' is one of the Names of God, the Oft-Returning or Ever-Relenting. It is an active constant, an ongoing, compassionate reality that renews every moment we are alive. The process of purification is a process of continuous turning. In 'Hearts Turn' Michael Sugich, author of 'Signs on the Horizons', tells stories that are harrowing and hilarious, heartrending and bizarre, profane and transcendent, and altogether full of hope, showing how men and women from many parts of the world and many walks of life have turned themselves around and taken a fork in the road toward a higher reality. "This book is a declaration of mercy and certainty. Formed of a collection of stories I've experienced, read or heard, about how malleable the human heart can be and how wrongdoing, remorse, need, and yearning intersect with Divine Compassion, Forgiveness and Guidance. It is also about the sudden transitions from confusion to clarity, from sin to virtue, from sleep to wakefulness, from ignorance to knowledge, from foolishness to wisdom. And finally it is about the path of our lives, which leads us gradually, and for those who God favors, inexorably to salvation." From the introduction to 'Hearts Turn'"Magnificent!...Interlacing ancient and modern experiences of the unexpected presence of God, this unique anthology of conversion stories reminds us of the ongoing spiritual power of Islamic faith." Dr. Timothy Winter (Shaykh Abdal Hakim Murad) Dean of Cambridge Muslim College"Michael Sugich is a master storyteller as he demonstrated in 'Signs on the Horizons'. 'Hearts Turn' is a brilliantly written reminder that God's Mercy is always open to each of us, no matter our position in life. This book has the power to leave the reader wanting to turn to God and to His Mercy. I loved this book." Sami Yusuf Singer, Composer, Humanitarian"A really heartwarming book...for a generation of young Muslims and converts who face inner doubts and in need of a few smart lessons from Michael's journeybook, told through many voices and his own unique spiritual history. It is a relief to know I am not alone." Yusuf Islam (Cat Stevens)
