Issues
That Concern Us All |
Islam
Tomorrow Now Has On-Line Issues of Interest: |
|
| Our
Project's called "ISLAM
TOMORROW" for a reason.
It
is our intent, if Allah will accept it, to present the true
meanings and understanding of the real Islam in light of
modern technology, science and world conditions.
It
is our firm belief that Islam and ONLY ISLAM is the absolute
and perfect answer to all of the ailments of the problems
of living in today's world.
To
a Muslim, each and every action in his or her regular daily
life can be considered as worship to Almighty Allah, provided
that the intentions are pure and righteous.
But
it is important to focus NOT on cultures, ethnic backgrounds
and ancient traditions which are not substantiated by the
Quran and teachings of the Prophet, peace be upon him, but
rather on workable applications and solutions to real difficulties
in the real world.
As
such, this portion of our web site is for dealing with these
day to day issues for everyone who is interested in knowing
the workable solutions of Islam in daily living for all
times.
Most important is to have input from our readers at this
stage to participate by writing, emailing and providing
ideas and questions necessary to provide continued direction
of the dialogs.

What
Does Allah Say About Everything? |
|
Allah The Almighty,
has said in His Final Revelation to mankind that He is with
those who persevere, remain steadfast and are patient in
the trials, calamities and tests of this life. He has told
us in His Book, that He will test us. After all, that is
why He put us on this earth in the first place. The close
meaning to one of the most simple yet, startling verses
in the Holy Quran, says that Allah created us all only for
worship to Him Alone Likewise, He tells us that He has perfected
our way of life (through Islam) and has ordained for us
to live in the Way of Islam (submission to Him).
Additionally,
He says that He will never test anyone beyond the scope
of their limits and capabilities. And that after each hardship,
He will make it twice as easy for us.
While
at the same time, He is clear on the subject of those who
knowingly reject His message and those whom He has sent
as messengers (prophets). Their end will be misery and punishment
and they will regret not having followed this wonderful
solution to mankind's worse aliment, his own self-destructive
greed.
Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, said: The entire material
world is cursed and all that is in it is cursed, except
for these things:
- The
remembering and thinking of Allah and those things that
cause you to remember Allah.
- A
knowledgeable person and one seeking knowledge.

And he also said:
This
worldly, materialistic life is real prison to the true believer,
while it is a paradise to the disbeliever.
Islam
teaches us how to be worshippers of Allah the Almighty in
all that we do throughout our entire lives, so much so that
even smiling to each other can be considered as an act of
charity and removing a piece of trash out of the path of
the believers is considered an act of worship. Honesty and
fairness in our mutual dealings with each other is a must.
Most
important of all, Islam teaches that by surrendering our
free will to the WILL of ALMIGHTY, submitting and obeying
His terms and conditions only for His sake is in fact the
single biggest way to achieve success of this life and in
the Next Life.
