How would you reconcile? / आप अपने आप को कैसे समझाएंगे ? If there is no hereafter (next eternal life), how could you reconcile the inequalities of this world?   Would not the un-believers be right in acting as if all creation and our life is futile? But there is a hereafter and God will not treat the Good and Evil alike. He is just and will fully restore the balance disturbed in this life. The knowledge of the hereafter Revealed through His Messengers is not a mere chance or a haphazard thing. It is a real blessing – among the greatest that God has bestowed on mankind. By believing it, in an earnest spirit, man may learn of himself, and his relation to nature around him and his relation to God – the Author of all. Men of understanding may, by its help, resolve all genuine doubts that may there be in their minds and learn the truth about this life and the next life to come. This would help them to have complete trust in God and tune their will to His Unive...

Are our ancestors our Gods ? / क्या हमारे पूर्वज हमारे भगवान हैं? “Our ancestors knew nothing about Islam , then should we not do as our fathers did?”   If the ancestors had received no revelation of the clear kind which a messenger brings; it should be a reason for welcoming and not rejecting the Truth.   We should feel honored, obliged and rejoice to receive a message from God instead of opposing it.   “The story of inspiration is false; it is merely an invention; we do not believe in inspiration”.   If the messenger who comes with the Spiritual Truths is acknowledged to be a Truthful person in all the other aspects of his life;   why should he be false where his preaching would bring him no gain but much sorrow, sufferings and persecution? When the Truth does work wonders in the hearts of those who accept it, they account for it by saying it is magic. What is magic? – A deception? If it was merely a deception, surly Truth would have proved i...

How to control sexual desires..?? The greatest of the passions given to man is of a woman. Yes, women is man’s one of the greatest temptations. If sexual passion overcomes the intellect then there remains no other aim before a person but to extract pleasures from women; and while in the company of such people possessing devilish attributes, it makes him un-concerned about the Hereafter, over powers his religion and keeps him busy in disapproved acts. If sexual passion gets aggravated, it is difficult to terminate it. Further, up to the extent, that a person does not pay due importance to any religious or worldly affairs before it and this makes him uneasy and disturbed all the time. On the other hand, a person who cools down the fire of passion at the very beginning – by not looking again at what he is not supposed to look at, is like the one who does not want his horse to go inside a door, so whenever it tires to turn him towards that door, he pulls it back by ...

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...
