Some shots of the beauty of Islam

I was reading a book by a convert, he was talking about how he found that the bible was saying that people should pray without ceasing. And he wondered how can someone prays without ceasing. Until he was introduces to Islam and he found that through Islam, we can pray without ceasing. Through working, smiling, talking, praying, eating, sneezing, buying and selling,drinking and so many other things.

ElhamdAllah, it is another bless that I recognized that Islam actually gives us the chance to worship God all the time without ceasing. How Generous is God to us, by setting from our usuall daily practices a means and a way by which we take with rewards. Allah is most merciful. He gives us the guide to every little detail in our lives. He rewards us for every little good deed we do till the extent that we take reward for smiling in each other's faces. By saying the truth. By praying Him and asking Him for His help and support. Sunhan Allah, His mercy extends that we take reward for asking Him for our needs, for His protect and for His forgiveeness when we misled His way.

ElhamdAllah, thanks God for everything

Miracle of Quran

Since I got aware, I knew that Quran is itself a miracle. As for each prophet (PBUH) has a miracle. And the miracles end with the prophets' death like Prophet's Mousse's (PBUH ) stick. After his death, the stick turned to be a normal stick found in a museum at the Istanbul. But when God wanted it to be a miracle, the stick turned to a snake with a command fom Allah and then returned to its nature state afterwards. But the Quran's miracle is everlasting ISA. Its words don't change a bit for more than 1400 years. No one ever managed to change a word into it. God had protected it. As it was sent for all the mankinds all over the world. Each prophet (peace be upon them) used to address his people, except for prophet Mohamed prayers and peace be upon him was sent mercy for all the humankinds.

I started to realize when I grew up by reading the beauty of Quran itslef and its literary beauty. I can easily distinguish the difference when I hear Quran that this is Quran even if I didn't recognize the verses or the chapter.. but the feeling that I get is uthe same, that it is from God.

" The prophet Mohamed (PBUH)did not how to read or write. Yet the Quran which was being revealed to him was (and still is )the highest pinnacle of literary beauty and excellence in the Arabic language. It was beyond the ability of the prophet to produce such this book. And God declares that it is beyond the ability of all of humankind and spirit -kind to produce a book like the Quran." taken from Common questions people ask about Islam, Shabbir Ally.

God challened the humankinds four times in the Quarn to produce such a book , and they couldn't do it. Then the challenge was reduced to a chapter , and they couldn't do it. and at that time his people were excelled in literary , but yet they couldn't do it.

" Say: If the whole of mankind and Jinns were to gather together to produce the like of this Quran they could not produce the like thereof, even if they backed up each other with help and support." (QURAN: 17:88)
