Our Goal: Best of Everything for Everyone [Quote of the Day - 344]

Sat, 04 Feb 2012 14:25:35 +0000

"What do we want? Simple!

We want every human being to have the best of everything – in this world as well as in the next world.

And we want that for all human beings, everywhere and for all time: Muslim as well as non-Muslim; male as well as female; old as well as young; White, Black as well as all other.

As a result, we want every human being to be the best human being they can be. And we want every human being to have the opportunity to know Islam, try Islam and be able to give Islam a chance in their life.

That is because Islam is all good; and because Islam is from God Almighty; and because Islam is not a concoction of human contriving, sacred or secular.

At the same time, we also want every Muslim – those who are already Muslim as well as those who from now on will become Muslim – to be the best human beings and the best Muslims they can be.

That is our most fervent wish; our most ardent prayer; and our most sincere and dedicated effort.

How can anyone possibly go wrong with something like that?" (Dr. Pasha)

Reader Reaction to the Book Islam: New Frontiers [Quote of the Day - 342]

Thu, 02 Feb 2012 17:15:24 +0000

"Dear Dr. Pasha: Thank you so much for this book. What an inspiring reading....

The book gave me so much reasons why I've chosen to embrace Islam as a way of life.

As a new convert, this book is an epiphany for me; you've absolutely encapsulated everything I do read from the meaning of the Koran, and the book epitomises Islam with tremendous sincerity, and this is what I believe Islam is all about.

Thanks again for this valuable work and Allah bless you for this good work."

Author’s Reaction to a Reader of the book Islam: New Frontiers [Quote of the Day - 343]

Thu, 02 Feb 2012 17:18:32 +0000

"It was Allah's blessing to write it. It is Allah's blessing to have you read it. It is Allah's blessing that we were all guided to the Qur'an in one way or another. May Allah make his blessings last on us forever.

And may Allah bless you for reading and reacting to it in such a wonderful manner.

And may Allah bless all those who in any form or fashion helped with the editing, printing, promoting and distribution of this book.

May Allah grant it acceptance and open the hearts and minds of people for it and to his Haqq -- Truth -- through it." (Dr. Pasha)

Muslims Abusing the Qur’an

Tue, 31 Jan 2012 16:45:52 +0000

It was several decades ago when the late Maherul Qadri wrote his beautiful and evocative poem he called Qur’an ki Faryaad.

Paraphrase: “Complaint of the Qur’an.”

The basic theme of the poem was something like this:

They love me and they kiss me;

They honor me and they revere me;

And in silken mantles do they bundle me;

But they wait for death to strike them,

Before they ever read me.

Oh, how long on the shelf do they forget me,

To gather dust, as if they never ever see me; [...]

Muhammad: The Living Miracle of Peace and Blessings – Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam!

Sun, 22 Feb 2009 02:12:11 +0000

Did Prophet Muhammad, Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam, perform any miracles of his own - like many of the other major prophets from earlier times, God bless them all?

Yes, he did. Of course he did. Absolutely, positively he did. And below I list a few of them. [...]

Remembering the Prophet, Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam!

Fri, 15 Sep 2006 03:22:12 +0000

Muslims should be remembering him every moment of their life, because their success in this world, as well as their salvation in the next world, is tied to it. Says the Prophet, Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam: "No one can claim to be a believer unless they love me more than everything and everyone in this world, including themselves" (paraphrase). [...]

What Other Options Do Humans Have?

Fri, 27 Jan 2012 04:35:15 +0000

Faith is a risk either way. Whether you believe in God or you don’t believe in him, the final outcome is always uncertain.

That is so, no matter how much True Believers deny it is so. [...]

Acknowledging and Thanking God

Wed, 25 Jan 2012 01:23:50 +0000

If you realize that everything you have is a gift to you from God Almighty, then, every time you open your mouth, what right do you have to say anything other than Alhamdulillah – meaning, “Thank You, Thank You, Thank You, God, Thank You!”?

And do so, not only with your mouth and with the bottom of your heart, but with every cell, sinew and pore in your body? [...]

It Is Your Heart You Know! [Quote of the Day - 341]

Tue, 24 Jan 2012 16:16:23 +0000

"You must try to keep your heart as clean and polished as possible all the time. For, a rusted mirror does not reflect the light (Nur) that God shines on it." (Dr. Pasha)

Islam Is Simple, Islam Is for All, and Islam Is All Good [Quote of the Day - 340]

Sat, 21 Jan 2012 23:07:37 +0000

"Islam is simple, clear, uncomplicated. People, both Muslims and non-Muslims, make it sound hard, confusing and complicated.

Islam is from God and Islam is all good.

What is more, Islam is for all, and not just for Muslims.

What Muslims owe the world, and what the world owes itself, and which is a clear directive from God, is introduce the world to Islam – to make the world interface with Islam.

At one time, that was the mission of the messengers and Prophets that God sent into the world.

Now, in our own time, and forever, that remains the purpose and central focus of the life of Muslims in this world." (Dr. Pasha)

How Muhammad, Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam, Changed the World

Thu, 19 Jan 2012 04:38:40 +0000

Prophet Muhammad, Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam, came into this world in the 7^th Century. He changed that world, from the way it was to pretty much the way it is today.

That means a lot of the things that you see in the world today, and you think they are all good, and you like them, chances are many of them are traceable to the teachings and legacy of Prophet, Muhammad, Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam.

What I am about to say here is not an expression of my faith as a Muslim, but a simple statement of empirical truth. That means anyone anywhere can take any of what I am saying here and subject it to a Truth-Test of their own. [...]

Calling the Muslims Called “Islamists”

Tue, 17 Jan 2012 02:15:29 +0000

“Islamist” is just another racial, ideological and political slur that the enemies of God use to insult Islam and Muslims.

They must make sure their official websites respect the integrity of the term “Muslim” and abstain from referring to themselves and other Islam-loving Muslims as “Islamists.” [...]

Islam Means Getting the Word Out [Quote of the Day - 339]

Thu, 12 Jan 2012 16:31:01 +0000

"The responsibility to take Allah's word to every home and heart is not other people's. It is ours.

And that means yours and mine.

And it is also work that must be done today and cannot be left till tomorrow.

That is why God Almighty created us and placed us in this world -- all of us.

And that is also what it means to be a Muslim.

If only every one of us realized that, what a beautiful world this would be." (Dr. Pasha)

Seeking the Wellbeing of Others: That Is Islam [Quote of the Day - 338]

Tue, 10 Jan 2012 20:31:34 +0000

"So many people say so many foolish, wicked and baseless things about Islam and Muslims.

Poor Muslims, most of them have neither the sophistication to know what is going on.

Nor do they possess the skills to address what is going on in any meaningful way and respond to it effectively.

If truth be told, as it always must be, here is a key element that goes, as it should, into shaping what you might call the Islamic character: Every Muslim must perpetually seek the wellbeing of this world and all its occupants – from human to non-human; and from Muslim to non-Muslim.

How much clearer can anyone make it?

Listen to this Hadith of Sayyidina (our leader and our master) Muhammad, Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam, and you will know:

Addeenu annaseehah, said the Prophet, Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam.

And in paraphrase it means: Deen (this Islamic faith business, if you will) is to work tirelessly, and forever, to enhance the wellbeing of others.

Now is it fair to ask: Who’s got what to match or trump it?" (Dr. Pasha)

Education without End: Part of Muslim Job Description [Quote of the Day - 337]

Tue, 10 Jan 2012 20:28:36 +0000

"Those of us who really love God, and care about his creation, we should all be always keenly aware of how to move all those we come in contact with from where we find them to a higher stage of sincerity and commitment to Allah, and to Allah's work, and to love and service to Allah's creation.

That is part of our Job Description as Muslims.

And it doesn't matter who these people are we are talking about: whether they are Jews or Christians; whether they are Hindus or Muslims; whether they are believers or unbelievers; whether they are rich or poor; and whether they are from this or that race or nation or society.

That is a sacred trust we hold in our hands from God as Muslims. And on the Day of Judgment we shall be required to render account for it before God.

Wa kaana 'ahdullahi mas-oolaa, says God Almighty in the Qur'an, which in paraphrase means: "And there shall be accountability before God concerning his covenant."" (Dr. Pasha)

Time to Talk Shari’ah: A Biblical Judaeo-Christian Tradition

Sun, 08 Jan 2012 18:54:31 +0000

Much water has flown down many a river in the so-called Middle East since a cowardly and spineless Ben Ali of Tunis stole the wealth of the Tunisian People and ran away to hide in a rent-free mansion in Jiddah nearly a year ago.

The expectation was he would do the needful: run tanks over the protestors and turn Tunis into a vast Golgotha, full of Muslim gore and crushed bones. Like the Algerian military and its foreign Colonial Masters had done in the 1990s with the innocent Algerian Muslim masses. [...]

Islam Is All about Speaking the Truth

Sun, 08 Jan 2012 13:58:41 +0000

In this world, there is truth and there is falsehood. One is from God; the other is from the Devil.

God not only speaks the truth, he is the truth. He is, in the language of the Qur’an, Al-Haqq: The Truth.

Also, in the language of the Qur’an, truth is Haqq and falsehood is Baatil.

This is eternally etched in heaven and earth – and on the face of every grain of sand, blade of grass and molecule of water.

On earth, this equation was spelled out most crystally 1400 years ago and never left it since.

Hence the way of the “righteous,” the good people, then, is truth: speaking the truth and acting on it.

The way of the wicked, on the other hand, is falsehood. It is the way of the Devil. [...]

Islam Is All about Health and Wellbeing

Sun, 08 Jan 2012 01:35:39 +0000

Humanity was sick, Islam came to heal it.

Humanity is back to being sick again. It needs Islam, once again, to make it well and whole.

It needs the Qur’an.

Allahu Akbar, should that alone not wake up human beings today to the truth of Islam – to the fact that this Islam could only be from Allah?

And that this system of Islam could not by any stretch of the imagination be a human concoction?
