Quality Prayer - Consumption of Lawful Things

In my last article I have said that the condition for having a quality prayer is when you enter a prayer in a happy state. But this is not an easy task for a beginner. It is only easy for the pious. I began to search for a simple solution for getting that happiness in prayer.

Today is Friday and I got the answer from the imam (the person who leads the prayer in a congregational prayer). He said that inorder for us to perform our religious duty base requirement is that as a muslim we have to be careful on what we eat. He said that Allah swt said in Chaper 5 verse 3 of the Al Quran as follows:

Forbidden to you is that which is already dead, and the blood, and the meat of pig, and what was sacrificed to other than God, and that which has been strangled, and that which has been beaten to death, and that which has fallen from a height, and that which has been gored, and that which the wild animals have eaten from except what you managed to rescue, and what has been slaughtered on alters, and what you divide by the arrows of chance. This is all vile. Today the rejecters have given up from your system, so do not fear them, but fear Me. Today I have perfected your religion (system) for you, and completed My blessings upon you, and I have chosen Islam (submission) as the religion for you. So, whoever is forced by severe hunger and not seeking sin, then God is Forgiving, Merciful.

As the fat amount in pigs are high, producers of livestock sell this pig lard to food producers to be used as an emulsifying agent. You may wish to see this site for all the codes of lawful emulsifier. ... [Part 4]

The Key of the Treasures of the Heavens and the Earth

W hen I wrote the post of my visit to see the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) , you may be wondering how that can be? To tell you the truth I felt the same way. But it is a norm for great learned people of the past to have experience of dreaming the great Prophet. I think it all decided by Allah swt to have a glimpse of the sweetness of faith. It is all about our intention in this life. What we actually want in the inner recesses of our hearts. What you want is what you get. I will also like to give some information of what I do in my daily life. 12 years ago I got the opportunity of a book on Islam. Therein I found a story of the Holy Prophet Muhammad saw. It is reported that ‘ Uthman ibn Affan, may Allah be pleased with him, requested further information about Allah’s injunction of the Keys of the Treasure of the Heavens and the Earth (mentioned several times in the Quran). The Prophet saws said to him “You have inquired of me something which nobody has ever asked me befo...

Is Time Travelling possible

⚘️It' Friday again. May Allah swt bless and give us goodness in this world and in the hereafter, and grant us Jannathul Firdous.🤲 On the day of Judgement the Prophet will lodge the following complaint. "Then the Messenger will say: "O my Lord! Truly my people took this Qur'an for just foolish nonsense." May Allah swt protect us from this and enable us to read, understand and follow the Quran only. An interesting part in this century is time travelling. We have seen it in movies, you tube and many other social media dramatising this phenomenon. Is time travel possible? Are there any references from the Reading (Quran)? The classic example of going into the future is depicted in 18:25. Its about the seven youth who wanted to safeguard their faith. A notorious King wanted everyone to acknowledge him as god. To this the seven youth ran away and sought God's help in a cave. To protect their faith! "they said: "Our Lord, bring us a mercy from Your...

Gazzali's Jinn - Introduction

Introduction Initially I was about to write something that can be readily appreciated by the masses, which is economics. Endless wants but limited means. Economics theories like the subject on Jinn, is equally filed in the comfort slot and collecting dust. Economics is useful in daily lives of people but needed a different perspective and change to make them most practical. During a recession, it is economics norm to cut interest rates to stimulate borrowing and spur on production, consumption and give a boost to the economy. In boom times, the rate is raised to restrain business investment and consumer borrowing to level off excess optimism and prices. But business firms borrow when they can make money and not because interest rates are low. Against conventional wisdom that consumer is king, firms decide what to make and then persuade people to buy it through advertising. Like economics, religion does play an important part in my life-in fact in most people’s lives. Economics is real...
