Functions of The Mountains

The holy Qur'an directs our attention to the important geological function of mountains. And We have placed on the earth firm mountains, lest it should shake with them, and We placed therein broad highways for them to pass through, that they may be guided (Quran Sura Al-Anbiya : 31) As can be seen, it is stated in the verse that mountains work to prevent turbulence in the Earth's surface . This fact was not known by anyone at the time when the Qur'an was revealed. In fact, they have recently been revealed as a result of discoveries of modern geology. According to this invention, the mountains appear as a result of the movement and collisions of massive plates forming the earth's crust. When two plates collide, the stronger plates slipped under the other plate, while the one above the fold and form a plateau and mountains. Bottom layer moves under the surface and form a deep extension downward. This means that the mountain has a part that stuck far down that i...

Egyptian Pharaoh Preserved is one of Proof of God's Existance

One more sign that proves God exists and powerful is was the discovery of the pharaoh's body in the red sea. The Qur'an tells of the prophet Moses and his followers were chased by the pharaoh and his army. By His power , God splits the sea and drowned Pharaoh and his followers. All creatures including sea was submissive and obedient to God. How about we as human beings much more perfect? "This is a book whereof this no doubt a guidance to those who fear their Lord much" (Quran, 2:2) "We brought the tribe of Israel across the sea and Pharaoh and his troops pursued them out of tyranny and enmity. Then when he was on the point of drowning, he (Pharaoh) said, "I believe that there is no god but Him in whom of the tribe of Israel believe. I am one of the Muslims. What, now! When previously you rebelled and were one of the corrupter? To day We will preserve your body so you can be a sign for people who come after you." (Quran, 10:90-92) Surely many peo...

Verses of Holy Quran Appeared on Baby Skin

One more phenomenon which can be witnessed by the human senses as one of the power of God , the verses of Holy Quran appeared on skin of a 9 months old baby in Dagestan Russia. Believe? Not important believe it or not, if it's true, it will appear the following question: How many people do not realize the power of God and the truth of the Qur'an ? but even if it is not true magical event, no problem, because for a Muslim to believe in the power of God and the truth of the Qur'an does not require the wonderful things like that. It is enough faith in the hearts and carry out the commandments of God through the prophets and messengers. This is not only the sign for existence of God , but there have been more signs discovered in nature. As an example, the word "Allah" in Arabic writing has discovered on the skin of several fish, on the skin of a cow, and even inside tomato and on a leaf; therefore we clearly see that almighty Allah reminds the creation to bow down...

Miracle of Allah

We as humans are not difficult to see the power and majesty of God, just by looking and watching the universe we will know how great the creator of all this. Is there any logical proof that man who created all or all of this happens by chance without a creator? A scientist who uses logical thinking skills will certainly deny that humans have created animals, plants , water , earth , let alone created the universe that until now there are still many mysteries that have not been revealed because of the limitations of science. God gives many signs of their authority to the people who among them can be captured by the five senses like trees bowing, the sentence of God in fruits, mountains, fish skin. sentence of God is formed by plants and clouds. Map of the world formed in cow leather, a cluster of bees forming the sentence of God , and many more acts of nature as a sign of God's power . For a Muslim phenomenon like that of course can easily be trusted even if some are deliber...

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...

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 ...

The Power of Allah

R74DWF7T83WN "Oh men! Here is set forth a parable? listen to it! On those whom, besides God, ye call, can not create (even) a fly, if they all met together for the purpose! the fly, and if should Snatch away anything from them, they would have no power to release it from the fly. Feeble are those who petition and those whom they petition!” (Quran 22:73). Have you studied or at least consider how an insect can flap their wings 1000 times per second?, how a flea can leap (jump) a hundred times his size?, have we noticed a butterfly flying forward while flapping their wings up and down?. We can take a simple example of one of the animals mentioned in the Holy Quran, "A Fly" to notice the power of Allah which very large and infinite. For any human strength, height and title of any degree of human education, as much as any man possessed of knowledge, and sophisticated technology owned by any man, no one could make a fly with a variety of advantages even though they all j...

The Earthquakes in Holy Quran

Earth and Mountains   The Scientists know about our beautiful planet more than any other object in the universe and the the earth is mentioned in the Quran about 450 times, the Quran devotes many verses to the signs of God on the earth. Because we live on this planet, we are supposed to look for signs of its Creator. Quran Surah 78, Ayah 6-7 : "Have we not made the earth as a wide expanse, and the mountains as pegs? It means that Allah states that the mountains are similar to pegs or wedges. A peg is used to fasten things so they cannot move. We can imagine the crust of the earth as a carpet, and the mountains as the nails that hold the carpet in place. It is now known that the crust of the earth is much deeper under the mountains, which indicate the existence of a root system under high mountains. Base on recent measurements, the depth of a mountain’s roots reaches 40 miles underground and the highest known mountain reaches only 5.6 miles above ground. The Holy Quran ex...

The Ability to See The Signs of God

Say: "Praise be to God. He will show you His Signs and you will recognize them. Your Lord is not heedless of anything you do." (Surat an-Naml: 93) In today's society, people assess the Qur'an very differently from what is the real purpose of its revelation. In the Islamic world, in general, very few people know the contents of the Qur'an. Some Muslim people often hang the Qur'an on the walls of their houses within a decorative cover and elderly people read it from time to time. They assume that the Qur'an protects those who read it from "misfortune and trouble". According to this superstition, they consider the Qur'an a sort of amulet against misfortunes. The Qur'anic verses, however, inform us that the purpose of the Qur'an's revelation is entirely different from what is mentioned above. For instance, in the 52nd verse of Surah Ibrahim, God states:"This is a communication to be transmitted to mankind so that they can...

Breast Milk Mother

Breast milk is a mixture of God's creation is incredible and unbeatable as a food source for a new born baby, and as substances that enhance the body immunity against disease. Even baby food made with the technology of today can not afford to replace the source of the food is incredible. Each day one new benefit breast milk for babies. One of the facts found that knowledge about breast milk is that breastfeeding a baby for two years after birth is really very useful. (Rex D. Russell, Design in infant Nutrition, http:// www. Icr.org/pubs/imp-259.htm) God tells us this important information about 14 centuries ago, the only known through science recently, in his verse "....split them (babies) in two years ...". "And We have stressed on man concerning his parents, his mother bore him undergoing weakness upon weakness and his weaning takes two years that give thanks to Me and to your parrent. Lastly, the return is towards to Me" (Quran, 31:14). Those are m...

Fresh Water in Ocean Depth

One of the nature of the oceans that scientists recently found have been revealed in one verse of the Holy Quran (QS-Ar-Rahman: 19-20) as follows : He let the two seas flow, both the meet, (but) between them, there is a limit which can not be passed by each. Nature of this sea, namely meet each other, but not mixed with each other at all, just found by expert sea. Because the style of physics called "surface tension", waters in the sea close together will not be mixed. Because of the differences caused by the thickness of water, the voltage prevent the surface ocean are both mixed with each other, as if have thin walls in between them. Interestingly, in the period when people do not have any knowledge physics, surface tension or the ocean experts, this knowledge has been revealed in the Holy Quran. Fresh Water in Ocean Depth By: Ir. H. Bambang Pranggono, MBA. He (Allah) let the two seas (adjoining), who is fresh fresh again and the other salty more bitter, and He...
