Ch 6: Science

Science:

Islam is known as the religion of the science for there are no conflicts between the science and the religion. This means that Islam does not prohibit the path of knowledge and science, but it rather imposes on Muslims to seek the Lore so as to be in high levels in the paradise.

 {{ .. Say: "Are those who know equal to those who know not?" It is only men of understanding who will remember}},( Holly Qur’an 39: 9).

Furthermore, the scholars are the best people to know the greatness and glory of Allah Almighty to the extent to fear Him. This is utterly furthered in the Holy Qur'an,

{{ It is only those who have knowledge among His slaves that fear Allâh. Verily, Allâh is All­Mighty, Oft ­Forgiving. }},( Holly Qur’an 35:28).

To boot, one has to add that the messenger of Allah Muhammad peace be upon him used to urge the Muslims to seek the path of knowledge. He used to say," Whoever has sought the path to knowledge, Allah Almighty will pave the path to him to get to paradise". ( Abo dawod 3645).

The necessity of science in Islam is based on knowing the ultimate truth about the world to decipher the codes of oneself, the surroundings, the others, and the universe. This substantial truth will enable the person to know one's creator so as to praise His Almighty and to pray to Him as He only wants us to do.

Ch 1: The Creator

Chapter One The Creator. The name Allah (God) in Islam is the personal name of God. The most concise definition of God in Islam is given in four verses of Surah Al- Ikhlaas in the Holy Qur'an : {{1. Say (O Muhammad): "He is Allâh , (the) One. 2. " Allâh-us-Samad (The Self-Sufficient Master, Whom all creatures need, He neither eats nor drinks). 3. "He begetteth not not , nor is He begotten; 4 . " And there is none Like unto Him.}} (Holy Qur'an 112: 1-4). To Muslims, this four-line definition of Almighty God serves as the touchstone of the study of God. Any candidate to divinity must be subjected to this ‘acid test' and since the attributes of The Creator given in this chapter are unique, false gods and pretenders to divinity can be easily dismissed using these verses.  i ) The first criterion is «"Say, He is Allah, one and only". » Can there be more than one god? This verse tells us that The Creator is the ...

Why was this religion named Islam?

Why was this religion named Islam? Adherents of various religions all over the ‎ world have named their religions, either with the name of a man or a particular ‎ race like Christianity, which was named after Jesus Christ; and Buddhism was ‎ named after its founder Buddha; and Zoroastrianism was named after its founder ‎ and flag banner, Zoroaster. Judaism had also emerged among the tribe of Judah ‎ and so on. The All-Mighty Allah Himself called it Islam when He said,   {{Truly, the religion with Allâh is Islâm . ( submission to His Will)}},(Holy Qur'an 3:1) It is only Islam that is not attributed to any particular man or ‎ nation. Its name indicates a special characteristic that the meaning of Islam ‎ denotes. It is evident in this name that no man has any role in bringing this ‎ religion into existence and that it is not peculiar with any nation to the ‎ exclusion of others. Its only goal is to make all people of the earth have ‎ characteristics of Islam...
