RAMADAN 2005 The 25th Day



Ayat of the Day


(Surah Hud: 123)


  Hadith of the Day:  






  Miracles of the Qur’an:  




The King said, ‘Bring him to me straight away!'… (Surah Yusuf: 50)


The use of the word "Pharaoh" in Egyptian history belongs only to the late period. This particular title began to be employed in the 14th century B.C., during the reign of Amenhotep IV. Prophet Yusuf (as) lived at least 200 years before that time.




In papyruses from the time of Pharaoh, Prophet Musa (as) is regularly referred to as a magician. (The papyruses in question are held in the British Museum.) Despite all the best efforts of Pharaoh and his supporters, they were never able to get the better of Prophet Musa (as) in their all-out war against him and the Children of Israel.


The reference to Prophet Musa (as), and the "magician" accusations hurled at him, can be found in the following verses:


They said, "No matter what kind of sign you bring us to bewitch us, we will not believe in you." (Surat al-A‘raf: 7:132)

  Wonders of Creation:  

The Jumping Spider


The spider makes this amazing leap by its eight feet that work on hydraulic pressure principles, and all of a sudden it descends on its prey and inserts its powerful jaws in it. This leap usually takes place in a convoluted environment of plants. The spider must calculate the most appropriate angle for a successful leap, and consider the speed and direction of its prey.






  Lives of the Prophets:  


On Mount Sinai, Allah gave Musa (as) the good tidings that He would grant him his brother Harun as a companion. Then, Allah reminded Musa (as) the blessings He previously granted to him:


These verses reveal the mystery of destiny, of which many people are unaware or can hardly understand. From his babyhood to the time he was chosen as a messenger, Musa (as) spent every moment of his life in line with what was predestined for him in the eternal past. Within this destiny is nothing but the fulfillment of the will of Allah. For instance, as stated earlier, thousands of minute details ordained by Allah in Musa's (as) destiny rendered possible the arrival of the chest to the family of Pharaoh.

It is also possible to see the extent to which the latter stages of Musa's (as) life were within the confines of his destiny. Musa (as) became involved in a fight and fled from the city to Midian, where he encountered two women. These women could not water their flocks because they avoided shepherds. Upon this situation, Musa (as) offered help. Musa (as) earned the trust of these women, and in return for his kindness, started a new life in Midian upon the proposal of their old father. When the appointed time came, Musa (as) left Midian with his family. On his way back, he saw a fire where he was addressed by Allah and chosen to be Allah's Messenger.

The chest carrying the baby Musa (as) floating randomly down the Nile, his being picked up by Pharaoh's family, his being raised in the palace, the unintentional murder he committed, his flight from Egypt, his encounter with the two women, the many years spent with the old man, the way he started a family, the journey back to Egypt, Allah's address to him, and countless other details which are not referred to in the Qur'an, all happened according to Musa's (as) destiny, already ordained before his birth. Not a single one of these events could have been omitted or have occurred differently. Because, our lives are similar to a film recorded in a video-cassette; it is impossible to remove even a single scene in one's destiny, just as how it cannot be done with a scene on a filmstrip. The destiny of a man, with each and every moment in it, is an intact whole.

Also in the verses quoted above, there is mention of the fact that Musa's (as) journey to the holy valley of Tuwa was in conformity with his destiny:

…Then you arrived at the pre-ordained time, Musa! (Surah Ta Ha: 40)

This matter needs to be given special attention. The destiny referred here is not peculiar to Musa (as) only. Giving birth to Musa (as) was part of the destiny of Musa's (as) mother. That she would give birth to Musa (as) at a certain day, and even at a certain hour, was also part of her destiny. But the mother of Musa (as) had parents as well. It was the destiny of the mother of Musa's (as) mother to give birth to her. This line of thought also holds true for Musa's (as) father and for the rest of his family.

The carpenter who made the chest which carried Musa (as) down the river also constructed it because he was predestined so in his destiny. His building of that chest was predestined for him even before he was born. The parents of this carpenter also led their lives in compliance with a certain destiny.

Let us consider the fight Musa (as) was involved in. This fight took place on just the moment Musa (as) happened to be there. From a simplistic point of view, one could say, "if it was to happen at a different time Musa (as) would not have been there and events could have taken a much different course." However this would be an incorrect evaluation. The fight took place just at the moment it was supposed to occur and evolved in the way it had to evolve. The reason being, this fight was also predestined by Allah. The same rule of destiny also holds true for the other parties involved in the fight, the reasons which led to the fight, as well as the man who advised Musa (as) to flee from the city, advising him that people were conspiring against him. Ultimately, the shepherds near the Midian river, as well as the two women Musa (as) encountered, had all constituted indispensable parts of this destiny.

It is Allah's prophets who best understood the fact that everything takes place within the decree predetermined by Allah. The Prophet Muhammad (saas), in whom there is an excellent example for all believers, said:

If any adversity comes to you, do not say: "If I had only acted in such-and-such a way, it would have been such-and-such;" but instead, say: "Allah has decreed  [it] and what He willed, He has done," for verily, the [word][if]  opens the way for the work of Satan." (Muslim)

When all these points are considered together, it becomes clear that, not only Musa (as), but also everything about his life, formed part of his destiny. A deeper and more detailed consideration would allow us to understand that we are all parts of the same destiny. In our own lives, we are also exposed to events predetermined in the eternal past by the all-mighty Allah. We were all bound by a destiny ordained for us. The moment of our death will also be a part of the same destiny. Destiny is, in reality, a divine knowledge encompassing the whole of existence. Just as how all the details of Musa's (as) life, including his becoming a messenger, were predestined for him, all the details pertaining to the lives of all mankind, as well as your own lives, are all predestined. Destiny is an entirety in itself and covers everything. Immune to the will of any being other than of Allah, destiny is only determined by Him.(For more information please refer to Timelessness and the Reality of Fate and Eternity Has Already Begun by the same author).

  Evolution Deceit:  

The Theory of Evolution:
A Unique Deception in the History of the World - I

The way that for 150 years certain people have been devoted to such an extraordinarily illogical belief as the theory of evolution is a great miracle created by Allah by making use of Satan. Those with good sense and faith in Allah and who are aware of this miracle have been waiting for 150 years to see just when evolutionists would become aware of this deception of Satan's, and have been using various means of suggestion, employing scientific and rational methods, to awaken them.








  Quick Grasp of Faith:  

What are the characteristics that earn Allah’s good pleasure?

Prophet Shu`ayb’s (as) words, "Ask your Lord for forgiveness and then repent to Him. My Lord is Most Merciful, Most Loving," (Surah Hud: 90) informs us that he reminds his people of Allah’s love. Anyone who believes in Allah, stands in awe of Him, meticulously fulfills the Qur’an’s commands, and strives for the Hereafter with all due respect may expect to earn His love and good pleasure. Some of the verses that inform us of whom Allah loves are as follows:

"... And do good: Allah loves good-doers." (Surat al-Baqara: 195)

"… And be even-handed. Allah loves those who are even-handed." (Surat al-Hujurat: 9)

"No, the truth is if people honor their contracts and are in awe of Him, Allah loves those who guard against evil." (Surah Al `Imran: 76)

"… Allah loves the steadfast." (Surah Al `Imran: 146)

"… Allah loves those who put their trust in Him." (Surah Al `Imran: 159)

"… Allah loves those who purify themselves." (Surat at-Tawba: 108)

"… Allah loves the righteous." (Surat at-Tawba: 7)

"Allah loves those who fight in His way in ranks like well-built walls." (Surat as-Saff: 4)

  Book Review:  


Fourteen centuries ago, Allah revealed the Qur'an, the guide to truth for mankind, and summoned all humanity to seek salvation by following the commandments of this Book. From the day it was first revealed until Judgment Day, this final holy Book will remain the sole guide for humanity. The unprecedented style and the superior wisdom inherent in the Qur'an is conclusive evidence confirming that it is the Word of Allah. Apart from this, there are a number of miracles verifying the fact that the Qur'an is the revelation of Allah, one of them being that, 1,400 years ago, it declared a number of scientific facts that have only been established thanks to the technological breakthroughs of the 20th century. In this book, in addition to the scientific miracles of the Qur'an, you will also find messages regarding the future and examples of its "mathematical miracle."...>>
