A Great Understanding - fight against Satan

One of the early scholars said to his student, “What would you do if Satan entices you to sin?” He said, “I would struggle against him.” “And if he returns?” would struggle against him,” the student repeated. “And if he returns again?” The student again says, “I would struggle against him.” The scholar told him, “This can take forever. What if you are passing by some sheep and their watchdog starts barking at you, preventing you from passing, what would your action be?” The student answers, “I would wear it down by struggle and repel it.” The teacher then says, “This is a lengthy process. If you go instead to the owner of the sheep, he will be able to make the dog desist.“’ This is a great lesson narrated by ibn al-Jauzi and that is that seeking refuge and shelter with Allah is the strongest way to refute Satan and to get far away from him. This is what the mother of Mary did when she said

Lo , I crave your protection for her and for her offspring from Satan the outcast (imran-36)

Some people say, We seek refuge in Allah but we still feel Satan coming to us and urging us to evil or preoccupying us while we are in the prayers.” The reply to this is that seeking refuge in Allah is like a sword that is in the hands of a warrior. If his arm is strong, he is able to penetrate and kill his enemy. If his arm is weak, he may leave no mark at all on his opponent, even if it is a very sharp sword. The same is the case with seeking refuge from Satan. If one is pious and God-fearing, this invocation becomes like a fire that bums Satan If the person is of weak faith, one whose faith is mixed with evil, then this weapon hardly harms Satan whatsoever.

Did Islam spread with sword?/ क्या इस्लाम तलवार से फैलाया गया?

Did Islam spread with sword?/ क्या इस्लाम तलवार से फैलाया गया? “Fanatical Muslims sweeping through the world and forcing Islam at the point of the sword upon conquered races is one of the most fantastically absurd myth that historians have ever repeated”,   says a noted historian De Lacy O’Leary in his book “Islam at the cross road (Page 8)”. And if someone says, that Islam teaches violence and hatred then such a person does not know nothing about Islam. For Islam is based on the association of a human being with the Supreme Being. This bond of love between the created and the Creator is as strong as the one which we have with our parents in general or even stronger. The Supreme Being is a permanent companion and a sure help in emergency, if approached aright. But, men often mistake His help for apparent causes. Islam demands reason and common sense as there no place for mysticism in its teachings.   Despite being strict in its discipline, the living rela...

Jesus came for a Sword? ईसा तलवार के लिए आये थे?

Jesus came for a Sword? ईसा तलवार के लिए आये थे? मनुष्य मूल रूप से शुद्ध बनाया गया था। एक पैग़म्बर की आवश्यकता तब होती है जब कुछ भ्रष्टाचार और पाप होता है, जिससे उसे युद्ध करने के लिए भेजा जाता है। उसके आने का मतलब बहुत परीक्षण और पीड़ा होता है; विशेष रूप से उन लोगों के लिए जो गलत के विरोध उसका साथ देतें हैं। ईसा ( शांती हो उन पर ) जैसे एक शांतिपूर्ण नबी ने भी कहा: "मैं शांति के लिए नहीं बल्कि तलवार के लिए भेजा गया हूँ।" (Matt.x.34) एक पैग़म्बर इसलिए भी आता है कि उन सभी रूहानी रहस्यों के बारे में गवाही दे जो अज्ञानता या अंधविश्वासों से अस्पष्ट हो गए हैं, या सांप्रदायिक विवाद की धूल में खो गए हैं।   वह एक नया धर्म या संप्रदाय स्थापित करने के लिए नहीं आता। वह धर्म सिखाने आता है। वह भगवान के सामने इस पर भी गवाह है कि मनुष्यों ने भगवान का संदेश किस प्रकार लिया। वह खुशखबरी या भगवान की रहमत की अच्छी खबर के वाहक के रूप में आता है। इससे कोई फर्क नहीं पड़ता कि इंसान गुनाह में कितना दूर जा चुका हो या खुद पर कितना ज़ुल्म कर बै...

What is the truth behind Miracles ? The truth may hurt about Ajmer Sharif Dargah ?

In the name of Allah the most merciful and beneficial  WHAT IS MIRACLES OF SAINT - IT'S CONCEPT AND DIFFERENCE BETWEEN  AUTHENTIC  AND FALSE MIRACLES. THE FALSE ABOUT AJMER SHARIF DARGAH. The Miracles (mujizah and karamah) The term Miracle (Mu’jizah) is something that violates the natural phenomena earlier scholars used Karamah as a synonym of Mu’jizah, but later generation of scholars differentiated between the two. Mu’jizah is used for prophet and Karamah is used for the wali (a favorite of Allah), and the result of occurrence for both is contravention of natural phenomena. All the prophets from Adam to Muhammad (peace be upon them all) have been ordered to mention that they no longer have any power over the matters that they do miraculously, except with the help of Allah. ... "while they encompass nothing of His knowledge save what He wills."  (Al Quran 2:255) The Miracle of saints The Miracles (Mu’jizah) of...

PARANORMAL ACTIVITIES JINN OR GHOST

  INTRODUCTION W e can't deny the existence of anything which we have not seen.   Allah   (God) ha s  created creation over creation for example,   we know there is world of oceans and everything in it is not visible ,   varieties of sea creature still unknown to us.   We are unable  to see air, energy, atoms, bacteria, gravitational force, traveling  of light etc.   Similarly we have creation of Allah known as Jinn . . We got this clue from Quran and authentic sayings of prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
