Prophet Noah in Holy Quran

Ark of Noah
In the Quran, the Prophet Noah as one of the five greatest prophets has a very special role to do what is commanded by God through revelation. God sent Noah to warn people to repent and stop worshiping idols, and must immediately return to the rule of God because if not, God will give the punishment as punishment for their behavior.

After all this time Noah tried constantly warned them to repent, then God ordered Noah to build an ark to save himself and his Umat (people) and each pair of animals. Those who are saved are the people who were given the correct rights through good behavior, but one of Noah's son did not get that right and left. (Photo from : AnswerInGenesis)

In confronting the various insults and contumely, prophet Noah completed building an ark on the mountain. Soon after building the, Allah created the great flood that inundated the entire country, so no one can be saved except those who have been on the ark

It happened because of Noah's generation who worship the statues that they called gods. They believed that the gods will bring good for them, protect them from evil and provide all their needs. They give names for their idols such as devout people who have died before then they perpetuate by making these sculptures.

Ibn Abbas explained: "After the death of the righteous, the devil whispered to his people to build statues in places where they used to sit They're doing this. But this does not worship the statue until the coming generations deviated from the true path from life. Then they worship them as their idols. "

Distrust Allah is a big tragedy that not only the loss of freedom, which reached a serious effect and destroy the human mind as well. Allah Almighty created man and his mind with the goals set at the most important achievement is the knowledge that God alone is the Creator and all the rest are slaves. Therefore, disbelief in Allah, or polytheism, will result in the loss of freedom, the destruction of the mind, and the absence of noble goals in life.

Remember, Allah will give punishment to rebellious people in that environment even though there are those who obey, But He (Allah) always gives warning first through his Prophet and Rosul. Now those warnings can be clearly we know through the Holy Qur'an.

Hopefully we do not include people who are rebellious. Amin

A Moving Leaf

When we travel to a forest, mountain, or a village there are still a lot of trees, of course we will not loose sight of trees, grass, leaves, and other natural phenomena. The following story is a true story witnessed by Ustadz Sharif Suhendar and Saeful Rohman (Master SAE) when traveling to one location in Rancaupas Bandung West Java Indonesia. They watched a leaf that does not stop moving even though there was no wind. This is different from other leaves that only move when there was a breeze that touches the leaves. The leaf could also be held for a while, but after being released, the leaf is moving back to normal (moving on without stopping). Although no direct research on this incident but based on modern science, it can certainly be a normal phenomenon just like the theory of aero dynamics. A Muslim may claim that it is (a moving leaf) is one of power and miracles of God , but only within reasonable limits as a form of self-introspection of obedience to Allah . Do not let thi...

Concept of God (Part II)

Dr. Zakir Abdul-Karim Naik - President, IRF ( http://irf.net ) Unity of God Some polytheists argue by saying that the existence of more than one God is not illogical. Let us point out to them that if there were more than one God, they would dispute with one another, each god trying to fulfill his will against the will of the other gods. This can be seen in the mythology of the polytheistic and pantheistic religions. If a ‘God’ is defeated or unable to defeat the others, he is surely not the one true God. Also popular among polytheistic religions is the idea of many Gods, each having different responsibilities. Each one would be responsible for a part of man’s existence e.g. a Sun-God, a Rain-God, etc. This indicates that one ‘God’ is incompetent of certain acts and moreover he is also ignorant of the other Gods’ powers , duties, functions and responsibilities. There cannot be an ignorant and incapable God. If there were more than one God it would surely lead to co...
