Eid Mubarak 2012

Eid Mubarak 2012

Muslims around the world welcome the day of Eid victory (Eid al-Fitr) with joy after carrying out a full month of religious fasting in the holy month of Ramadan as a Muslim duty. In the month Muslims are trained to work hard to practice their religion sincerely. Not only learning of hunger and thirst, but also trained to always control their emotions.

Muslims who had reached the point of victory in the month of Shawwal (Eid al-Fitr) are that they are capable of implementing positive habits as well as in the month of Ramadan as the fourth pillar of Islam to be applied to other months. Such as performing prayers at night, reading the Qur'an and dhikr expect ridlo and forgiveness of God.

Fasting (Shaum) in Islam has rules adapted to human nature and does not intend to trouble or torment humans. Muslims are required to fast before dawn meal (eat in the morning) before the Fajr prayer, and they have to break the fast at Maghrib prayer. Muslims are forbidden to fast without break (no food or drink).

Before the Eid prayer, Muslims are required to issue a tithe (Zakat Fitrah) to be distributed to the poor in order to help others and to clean up property owned before God someday.

May this Eid 2012 make us clean from all sins and mistakes we have done in the past. May God always gives the right and forgive our sins. Amin.

The Roles and Duties of Human Beings in the World According to the Qur’an

Introduction Human beings were not created without a purpose. The Qur’an makes it clear that our existence on earth is deeply meaningful.

According to Islamic teachings, human life is not just about survival or pleasure, but about fulfilling specific roles assigned by Allah. The Qur’an outlines three primary roles for mankind: Servant of Allah (‘abdullah) Vicegerent (khalifah) on earth Bearer of the trust (amanah) These roles define the duties and responsibilities of humans in the world and serve as guidance for a purposeful life. 1. Human as Servant of Allah The most fundamental role of a human being is to worship Allah. Worship is the central purpose of creation, as explicitly stated in the Qur’an: “And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me.” (Surah Adh-Dhariyat [51]: 56) In Islam, worship is not confined to ritual acts like prayer, fasting, or pilgrimag...

Concept of God (Part. I)

Dr. Zakir Abdul-Karim Naik - President, IRF The Most Concise Definition of God "Say: He is Allah, The One and Only. "Allah, the Eternal, Absolute. "He begets not, nor is He begotten. And there is none like unto Him." [ Al-Qur’an 112:1-4 ] The word ‘Assamad’ is difficult to translate. It means ‘absolute existence’, which can be attributed only to Allah (swt), all other existence being temporal or conditional. It also means that Allah (swt) is not dependent on any person or thing, but all persons and things are dependent on Him. Surah Ikhlas - the touchstone of theology : Surah Ikhlas (Chapter 112) of the Glorious Qur’an , is the touchstone of theology. ‘Theo’ in Greek means God and ‘logy’ means study. Thus Theology means study of God and 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’. Since the attributes of Allah given in this chapter ...
