Your Way To Islam
Look at everything that is around you on earth; the plants, animals, and insects; the birds and the fishes. Look at what is above you in space; the sun, moons, planets and stars; the clouds, rain and wind. Aren't they all functioning properly and accurately? What about your own body? Your many organs and sophisticated systems, all precisely functioning to promote you with a healthy life. Did you ever stop to think, who created all of this? The creator is One, if there were more than one there would have been confusion in the heavens and earth. Our creator gifted us with freedom and intellect, and with that it is upon us to choose and understand the right path.
Choice is in our hands, what are we going to choose?
There are many choices and many paths, but only one is the correct path. A path of faith, deeds, and utterance. A path that is open to all, disregarding origin, race, sex, and economic or social status. A religion chosen to aid its followers in all kinds of disasters, through faith and guidance. A religion shouldn't only hold faith. Faith alone cannot guide humans through life. There must be rules and laws for the humans to abide by, and for those followers to remember the rules there must be a deed. Usually the dee
One path is Islam. Islam is a religion of Monotheism. It denies the Dualism of the Magians and the Trinity of Christians. It is a religion composed of three main areas: faith, utterance, and deeds Faith is to believe in Allah, the angels, the Heavenly Scriptures, the Prophets and the Last Day. Muslims believe that Allah is One God and the Lord of everything. He is the Creator of all. All others than him, like the angels and prophets are created as mastered servants and share nothing with Allah. Among them are Jesus and Mohammed (Peace be Upon Them); none have a divine and god-like characteristic. Allah is Eternal, the First with out a beginning and the last with out and end. He has created us in best form, and given us graces. Thus we are permitted to direct our prayers to Him and only Him. "Say! He is Allah, the One. He is the Most Unique, the Eternal, The Absolute. He neither gives birth, nor is He born. And there is none like unto Him." [ Al-Qur'an 112]. Although Islam is mainly based on the Holy Qur'an, Muslims must have faith in the books that have been sent before. Among them are The Sheets of Abraham, the Taurat which was reveled to Moses (Peace be Upon Him), the Az-Zabour or the Psalms revealed through David (Peace be Upon Him), the Injeel or Gospel that was revealed through Jesus (Peace be Upon Him), and lastly but not least the Qur'an which was sent down to Mohammed (Peace be Upon Him). The Qur'an is the last book, and is guarded from corruption. It confirms the truth in the previous Books and guards them. Utterance is to say th
انظر إلى ما حولك على الأرض، من جماد ونبات وحيوانات وطيور وحشرات وأسماك… 2لست ترى أن هناك نظماً دقيقة تحكم حياتها وتوجهها؟
انظر إلى كل ما فوقك في الفضاء: الشمس والقمر والكواكب والنجوم والسحب والرياح…
أليست تسير كلها بانتظام ودقة، وتؤدي خدمات جليلة لحياتنا على الأرض؟
فكر في نفسك: في أعضائك وأنظمة جسمك العديدة الرائعة، كيف تعمل في تعاون، لتحفظ لك حياة مفعمة بالصحة!؟
من خلق كل هذه العجائب؟
من وضع نظمها المحكمة؟
من يهيمن على كل هذا الكون الهائل المعقد؟6 لم يجرؤ أحد على ادعاء أنه خلق شيئاً من هذا، أو أنه قادر على أن يخلق أي شيء، ولو شعرة!!
إن مُوجِدَ كل هذه المخلوقات والقائم بأمرها واحد فقط. إذ لو كان هناك معه غيره لفسد نظام الكون والسماء. وذلك الواحد هو (الإله الحق ).
من المنطقي إذن أن نسلم بهذه الحقيقة. وأن نعرف خالقنا وربنا. وأن نقر له بالنعمة.
وأن نسلم أنفسنا وحياتنا لهديه الفياض بالحكمة والرحمة.
منحنا خالقنا عقلاً لنفهم به، وحرية نختار بها الصراط المستقيم.
الله لنا الصراط المستقيم. على يد رسله الذين ختموا بالرسول محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم. وفي كتبه التي خُتِمت بالقرآن الكريم.
فأمامنا الآن طريقان: أحدهما يؤدي إلى النعيم في الدنيا وفي الآخرة، ذلك هو الإسلام.
أما الآخر فيؤدي إلى الشقاء والخسران في الدنيا، والعذاب المقيم في الآخرة. وهو عدم الدخول في الإسلام.
والخياربين أيدينا، فماذا سنختار؟ لا شكل أن العاقل يختار الإسلام. هدانا الله إلى سواء السبيل!
