Secrets Of Quran Miracles

Why We Study Scientific Miracle?



There are some question about the importance of Scientific Miracle in the Holy Quran. We attempt to answer and explain….

New articles have been recently issued as their writers are wondering: if these cosmic and scientific facts existed in the Qur'an 1400 years ago, then why were you waiting for the West scientists to discover them and you say that the Qur'an has preceded them in the speech about these facts? Moreover, you bear on the Qur'anic text what it cannot bear of interpretation and explanation?

The answer of these questions is found in the same verses that spoke about the coincidence between the science and the Qur'an. That is because these verses are basically directed for the disbelievers who do not believe in the Qur'an. Allah (Exalted is He) has directed those verses towards them because they who will see the cosmic facts and they who ill discover them.

Therefore, we find the divine eloquence addressing them while saying: "We will soon show them Our signs in the horizons and in themselves until it is evident to them that it is the Truth. And does it not suffice as to your Lord that He is The Ever-Present Witness over everything?" Surat Fussilat (Expounded) verse no.53

This clear verse is addressing those who suspect the Qur'an. It says that Allah will guide them to see His signs and miracles to realize and know foe certainty that the Qur'an is the truth and it is the book of Allah (Exalted is He). He is also addressing and calling them while saying: Will they not then contemplate the Qur’an? And if it had been from (any where) other than the Providence of Allah, indeed they would have found in it many difference (s). ‍Surat An-Nisa (Women) verse no.82

Thus if the Qur'an has been sent by a humanbeing i.e. by anyone rather than Allah, we will see in it the differences and the contrasts. But if we see it agreeing and coinciding with the new science and doesn’t contradict with it, then this is a scientific evidence that it is coming from Allah (Exalted and Blessed is He) Who is the Creator of the universe and the revelator of the Qur'an.

This is the aim of the scientific miracle, to see in the Qur'an this symmetry in every thing and not to find any disturbance, mistake or contrast. That is because those are the characteristics of the book of Allah (Exalted is He). Whereas the books written by people however their writers write them perfectly, they still have contrast, disturbance or mistake.

The greatest evidence of the truth of this qur'anic fact is that the scientists started to change their cosmic terms, for example they change the term “space” to “building”. Thus they have discovered that they are mistaken in using this term so they left it and used what is more accurate and correct after their discovery of the dark matter.

But the Qur'an, which is descended by Allah Who knows the secrets of Heavens and Earth, has given us the accurate expression directly. Thus Allah has described his book saying: "Untruth does not come up to it before (Literally: between its two hands) it nor from behind it; a successive sending down from (One) Ever-Wise, Ever-Praiseworthy". Surat Fussilat (Expounded) verse no.42

Therefore if these discoveries have been done by believers who would then say that they are beforehandedly mentioned in the Qur'an, the disbelievers would deny their truthfulness. The miracle happens when you find that the person who denies the Qur'an unconsciously repeats it words. Here, the miraculous nature becomes greater than it when the discoveries would be done by the believers.

If we follow the qur'anic verses speaking about the cosmos, we’ll find that they are addressing the disbelievers who are far from the book of Allah and who are denying His words (Exalted and Blessed is He). As the believer believes all what is descended by Allah (Exalted and Glorified is He) and these scientific facts increase his certainty and faith in Allah, the Creator and Inventor, of this universe, Who says about the uniqueness of His creation what follows: "And you see the mountains, that you reckon inert, and (really) they pass by like clouds- the handiwork of Allah, Who has consummated everything; surely He is Ever-Cognizant of whatever you perform." S‍û ‍rat An-Naml (The Ant) verse no.88

Concerning the disbeliever, who denies the Qur'an and disbelieves the message of Islam, he should look and contemplate to reach convincingly to the faith of Islam and to realize from these facts the truthfulness of this religion and the truthfulness of the Seal of the Prophets i.e. Mohammad (May the best prayers and peace be upon him).

Taking Many Steps to the Mosques



“The people who will receive the greatest reward for prayer are those who walk the furthest distance to come and pray, then those who walk the next farthest.” ….

All the new medical studies assure the importance of walking in treating many diseases such as those relating to blood pressure, heart problems, and diabetes. Walking everyday for half an hour helps improve and systematize how the heart works. It also assists in recovering the humans’ psyche, activates the muscles, and helps in getting rid of daily pressures, worries, and depression. One of prophet Muhameds’ (peace be upon him) mercies for believers is his recommendation for walking to Mosques, and his promise of gaining a great reward. He said: “The people who will receive the greatest reward for prayer are those who walk the furthest distance to come and pray, then those who walk the next farthest.” Narrated by Muslim, 662.

Seven Scientific Facts Testify that Mohamed is Sincere



In this research we will demonstrate some scientific facts which had been mentioned in the prophet sayings (Hadith), as modern science proved that these facts are true ….

The most beautiful moments in the life of the believer when he see a miracle in the sayings of the prophet (Peace be upon him), we are in the era of science and scientific explorations, so we have to make some searching in his sayings to realize these scientific signs which testify that prophet Mohamed (Peace be upon him) is sincere. This research may make a good contribution to correct west vision about that illiterate prophet (Peace be upon him).

First Fact

Prophet Mohamed says to his companions this subject will reach all places the same as night and day) which means that Islam will spread to reach all places the same as night and day reach every place on earth . Indeed, today statistics says that religion of Islam is in every place in the world!! As these statistics says that by the year 2025 , Islam will be the first religion all over the world according to number of followers , this is not an exaggerated saying with no doubt these numbers are real , as these figures came from non Muslim scientists.

Statistical experts confirm that Islam is the fastest growing religion and there are Muslims in all countries all over the world but with different ratios. The question, isn’t this the same as what prophet Mohamed said to his companions 1400 years ago?

Second Fact

The prophet said (ground was made for me as a place to prayer and also a method to be pure) [Narrated by Muslim]. in a new research scientists discovered that there are Antibiotics in the soil of earth , these Antibiotics can clean up and kill the most obstinate kind of bacteria , which prove that soil is a Disinfectant. In a new study scientists said that there are some kinds of soil which can remove the most obstinate kind of bacteria. Today, scientists are looking for manufacturing a killer for the most obstinate kind of bacteria extracted from soil. After many tests in laboratory they found that during 24 hour soil can remove an entire colony of bacteria but the same colony had multiplied 45 times without mud.

Scientists discovered that soil contains antibiotics, and without this feature life would not continue because of viruses and bacteria that may reach human and may eliminate his life and destroy him, but god with his mercy put the cleansing feature to ensure the continuation of our life. We have to thank god for this blessing.

Third Fact

Prophet Mohamed spoke very carefully about a scientific fact realized by scientists few years ago. He said ( God will not held day of resurrection unless Arab land returns greens and rivers again ) [Narrated by Muslim.] scientifically, it was proved that one day the Arabian peninsula was full of greens and rivers as satellite photos confirm that there are buried rivers under the sand of Arab land , one of the great scientists of the American space agency (NASA) says that the taken photos for the desert had shown that one day this area was covered with rivers and lakes like Europe and one day in the future it will back again like the past.

NASA scientists confirms that one day desert of Rub ' Al Khali and the Arabian Peninsula was covered with rivers, forests and animals and they confirm that this land will back again like the past , as referenced by the prophetic Hadith.

Fourth Fact

The Prophetic Hadith about the straight way in Day of Resurrection is considered to be one of the scientific miracles in the prophetic Sunnah. In this Hadith the prophet says don't you see that the lightning comes and back in an eye blink) [Narrated by Muslim] .there is complete identification between our prophet saying and the most recent discovery concerning the lightning flash as scientists had found that the lightning flash happens when a ray of lightning get out of the cloud toward the ground and back again to the cloud! In that Hadith a sign that prophet

Mohamed (Peace be upon him) talked very carefully about phases of the lightning, and also he determined the time as it is the time of an eye blink!

Scientists had found that lightning has many phases and the most important phases are going down phase and going back phase. Time of the lightning flash is 25 Fraction of a second and this is the same as time of eye blink, isn't this the same as what prophet Mohamed said 1400 years ago?

Fifth fact

Recently, scientists had discovered that forelock area (upper and front of the brain) controls right decisions making, so as long as this are is active and efficient ,the taken decisions would be more accurate and wise .prophet Mohamed (Peace be upon him) says in his supplication (oh god, my forelock is between your hand) [Narrated by Ahmed].in this supplication there is a full submission from the prophet to his god be he exalted as god is controlling however he wants and is predetermining whatever he wants . Also scientists discovered that forelock area plays a vital role in realizing, steering, problem solving and creation. So that prophet Mohamed had submitted this area for his god.

After long studies for brain activities, scientists had discovered that the most important area is the forelock (forepart of the head ) as this area is responsible for creation and steering operations so prophet Mohamed (Peace be upon him) confirms that this area is so important , and this is a miracle which testify that the prophet is sincere . How could he know about that issue in a time when no one knows anything about it? God taught him all of that as god says: (and taught you that which you knew not. And Ever Great is the Grace of Allah unto you) (An-Nisa'- verse 113)

Sixth Fact

Prophet Mohamed (Peace be upon him) said: (one of the signs of day of resurrection is the sudden death) [Narrated by AlTabarani]. Certainly, in this Hadith there is a scientific miracle concerning a medical fact which considered being a testimony that Mohamed is god's prophet. United Nations statistics confirms that phenomenon of sudden death appeared in recent days and is increasing despite all preventive procedures.

Heart doctors confirm that phenomenon of sudden death spread considerably in the last few years, despite the development in medicine and number of dead people by this phenomenon are increasing. Isn't this the same as what was indicated in the prophetic Hadith?

Seventh Fact

Most of scientists confirm that Senility is the best natural end for human, and any attempt to prolong life above certain limit will cause many effects, one of these effects is cancer. "Lee silver" from Princeton, the American University says:" any attempt to reach immortality is an opposite way against nature". So, it was useless to spend money to treat senility as the spent money was about millions of Dollars. this is the same as what prophet Mohamed (Peace be upon him) said oh you ,slaves of God you have to treat yourselves from ills , as each ill has a treatment except Senility , it has no treatment.) [Narrated by Ahmed]

So science gives us some new facts to verify and prove the truthfulness of the prophet and message of Islam.

The Secrets of Answering the Supplication to Allah



A question I have always thought about it: why doesn’t ALLAH answer our supplications although ALLAH almighty had promised to answer them? Then, my journey of reading and comprehending the Holy Quranic verses started.….
ALLAH Almighty speaks to his beloved Muhamed “peace be upon him” in his Holy Quran: (and when my slaves ask you (O Muhamed) concerning me, then (answer them), I am indeed near (to them by My knowledge). I respond to the invocations of the supplicant when he calls on Me( without any mediator or intercessor). So let them obey Me and believe in Me, so that they may be led aright) [Al-baqarah: 186]. This is a proof that ALLAH almighty is close to us, hears and responds to our invocations. What has caught my attention is that ALLAH the majesty responds to our supplications, but how can we respond to him (When he calls on Me), and does he need our answers?

From here we can realize that ALLAH calls us to do things and we should reply to him. If we answer his call, he will answer ours. What are the things that we must perform in order to have our supplications answered? If we consider the prophet’s invocations and invocations of the righteous in the Quran, we notice that ALLAH answered all of their supplications, and he didn’t disregard any of his slaves. What is the secret? Let’s read the Al-Anbiya chapter and understand the supplications of the prophets “peace are upon them.”

Here, for example, our prophet Nuh (Noah) “peace be upon him” prays to his Lord to protect him from his community’s oppression, ALLAH almighty says: (and (remember) Nuh (Noah), when he cried (to Us) aforetime. We answered to his invocation and saved him and his family from the great distress) [Al-Anbiya].Then the chapter mentions our prophet Ayyub (Job) “peace be upon him” when his disease distressed him and he asked ALLAH to cure him. ALLAH almighty says: (and (remember) Ayyub (Job), when he cried to his Lord: “Verily, distress has seized me, and You are the Most Merciful of all those who show mercy” (83) So We answered his call, and We removed the distress that was on him, and We restored his family to him (that he had lost) and the like thereof along with them as a mercy from Ourselves and a reminder for all those who worship Us).

[Al-Anbiya:[83-84]. The supplication then moves to a difficult stage when our prophet Yunus (Jonah) was inside the whale’s stomach! So what did he do, how did he pray to ALLAH, and did ALLAH almighty answer his prayer? ALLAH says: (and (remember) Dhun-Nun (Jonah), when he went off in anger, and imagined that We shall not punish him, but he cried through the darkness (saying): La ilaha illa Anta [none has the right to be worshiped but You (O ALLAH], Glorified (and Exalted] be You [above all that (evil) they associate with You]! Truly, I have been of the wrongdoers (87) So We answered his call, and delivered him from the distress. And thus We do deliver the believers)[Al-Anbiya:87-88]. Thus, the response has come to save our prophet Yunus from this difficult distress while he is in darkness within darkness: the darkness of the deep sea, the darkness of the whale’s stomach, and the darkness of the night. However, our prophet Zachariah’s (Zakariyya) supplication was different; he didn’t comprise a disease, distress or oppression. Instead, he wished for a son to soothe his eye. He asked ALLAH: (and (remember) Zakariyya when he cried to his Lord: “O My Lord! Leave me not single (childless), though You re the Best of the inheritors”(89) So WE answered his call, and We bestowed upon him Yahya(John), and cured his wife)[Al-Anbiya:89-90].

After ALLAH almighty has mentioned his prophets’ supplications and responded to them, he said: (Verily, they used to hasten on to do good deeds, and they used to call on Us with hope and fear, and used to humble themselves before Us) [Al-Anbiya:90]. Glory is to ALLAH! How easy we can answer any question. Only if we comprehend the Quran, we will find answers for everything we need. From this blessed verse, we can conclude that the secret of answering the supplication is that these prophets have achieved three conditions:

1- Hasten in doing good deed

The first step to achieve the way of answering the supplications is rushing in doing a good deed: (Verily, they used to hasten on to do good deeds): they don’t wait for someone to call them to do a good action, instead, they used to go themselves rushing in doing the good deed. This wording format (hasten) is a proof to show how speedy they were in doing anything to please ALLAH almighty, and Glory is to ALLAH, where are we compared to the prophets? How many of the believers have moneys, never the less, we rarely find one of them goes rushing to a poor or needy person, but wait until they approach him. He still may give the needy person some money or not- except whom ALLAH have mercy on him. And how many of the preachers of ALLAH need a small amount of money to spend in their way of preaching, and you hardly find who supports them or gives them some.

ALLAH almighty calls us all and says: (who is he that will lend to ALLAH a goodly loan so that He may multiply it to him many times? And it is ALLAH that decreases or increases (your provisions), and unto Him, you shall return)[Al-baqarah:245]. Let each of us ask himself a question: how many times in my life did I go harrying when I knew that someone needed my assistance, and I helped him with all I can afford? How many times did I go rushing to a human who went astray from ALLAH’s path, and I warned him, and preached him to pray or to leave the dreadful deeds? How many times in my life did I leave this worldly life and its demanding, and sit with ALLAH’s book reciting it and trying to memorize it? If you didn’t give something, how would ALLAH provide you what you desire? Hence, doing a good deed is more important than the supplication itself because ALLAH almighty mentioned hastening in doing good deeds before mentioning the supplication. He said: (Verily, they used to hasten on to do good deeds, and they used to call on Us)

2- Praying in hope and fear

The second step is the supplication, but how do we pray: (and they used to call on Us with hope and fear)? Hope means eagerness for ALLAH’s delights. And fear is being terrified from ALLAH’s almighty punishment. Therefore, our invocations must be asked in a way of intense hope and intense fear. From here, ask yourself dear reader: when you ask ALLAH almighty, do you notice that your heart is intended for ALLAH, and that you are being careful in pleasing him no matter what the result would be? Or is your heart directed only toward your request that you are asking for? This is another secret of answering the supplication.

When we pray to ALLAH almighty and seek something from him, do we remember the paradise and the fire for example? Do we remember during the prayer that ALLAH is proficient in answering our supplication and that nothing disables him neither in the earth nor in the sky? Do we keep in mind while asking ALLAH something, that He is greater than that thing, or do we fully focus on the thing we need and request from ALLAH? That’s why we don’t find any of the prophets seeking something from ALLAH except that they remember ALLAH’s power, mercy and his greatness during the situation. For instance, our prophet Ayyub (Job) said after asking ALLAH to heal him: (and You are the Most Merciful of all those who show mercy).

And our prophet Yunus(Jonah) which the Quran has described him as (Dhun-Nun); Dhu refers to “The” and Nun refers to “whale”. The strange thing in this noble prophet “peace be upon him” is that he didn’t seek anything from ALLAH! Instead, all he did is admitting two things. First, declaring about ALLAH’s oneness and greatness. He said: (La ilaha illa Anta [none has the right to be worshiped but You (O ALLAH], Glorified (and Exalted] be You [above all that (evil) they associate with You]!). Second, declaring that he was a wrongdoer when he left his people and went off in anger to the ship without seeking ALLAH’s permission for that action, so he admitted to ALLAH sayingTruly, I have been of the wrongdoers).

The thing all the prophets did is that they all directed their supplication to ALLAH and remembered ALLAH’s greatness and ability, and they remembered their sins and weakness in front of ALLAH almighty.

3- Being humble to ALLAH almighty

The third and most important condition for answering the supplication is to be lowly and humble in front of ALLAH while performing invocation. Be humble while fearing ALLAH. ALLAH said: (and used to humble themselves before Us). The more humble you are while doing a supplication, the more chance it will be answered. Being humble does not only have to be when performing invocation. You should ask yourself: are you humble when performing your obligated prayers? Do you fear ALLAH while getting your sustenance and stay away from collecting sinful money? We realize why our noble prophet Muhamed “peace be upon him” assured the believer to acquire permissible food and drink so that his supplication might be answered. Did you ever think about forgiving a person who harmed you? Did you ever consider being patient for the sake of ALLAH toward someone who hurt you?

Or, did you ever ask yourself what are the things that ALLAH loves so you can do them to get closer to ALLAH and be one of his humbled slaves? These are questions we must point out and think about, and work on to be closer to ALLAH and to make sure that all our deeds, movements, and our senses are for the sake of ALLAH. That nothing we need from this life except to please ALLAH almighty. Is there a thing in this life more beautiful than to be pleased by ALLAH?

Lastly my dear brothers and sisters:

Are you going to hurry in doing good deeds? Are you going to sincerely direct your supplication to ALLAH? Asking him while recognizing that he is going to answer you? Praying in hope of his delights and fearing his punishment? Is your heart going to be frightened in front of ALLAH’s almighty words, while performing supplication, are you going to fear ALLAH in all your deeds?

If you decided from now on to practice this lesson, I want to tell you and assure you that ALLAH will answer your supplication, and this saying is based on experience I went through before you. One of its consequences is that ALLAH gave me more than I asked of him. And finally you should know that if a supplication was not answered in this life, then, ALLAH is either going to answer it for you in the judgment day when you need anything desperately in that day. Or that ALLAH will remove a distress, misfortune or suffering that might come along with answering the supplication.

Let’s pray to ALLAH with the righteous believers’ supplications that the Quran has told us about them: (Our Lord! Verily, we have heard the call of one (Muhamed) calling to faith: ‘believe in your Lord,’ and we have believed. Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and expiate from us our evil deeds, and make us die along with Al-Abrar( the pious believers of Islamic Monotheism(193) Our Lord! Grant us what you promised unto us through Your Messengers and disgrace us not on the Day of Resurrection, for You never break(Your)promise) Al-Imran:[193-194].

Quran And Human Personality



Definitely! Quran has a great influence on human personality, human’s development and It helps achieve success, happiness, and comfortable life.….

Three are many questions about the effects of the Holy Quran:

• What is the relationship between someone’s connection to the Quran and the success of his life?
• Does the bond and connection to the Quran influence someone’s accomplishment in this life?
• What is the Quran ruling in altering someone’s personality and building a flourishing character?
• What is the Quran ruling in treating complicated psychological diseases?

I would say that the finest effort ever that a person can do is to recite the Quran and to follow what ALLAH has commanded and to stay away from what ALLAH has forbidden. And from my personal experience with the Quran for over twenty years, I became convinced that the Quran has a great deal of influence on the human personality.

When you read some books concerning programming neurological ********s or reading books regarding managing the time efficiently or socializing with others effectively, the author would tell you; reading this book can change your life. This means that anything a person reads might influence his behavior and his personality and that is because personality is a consequence of the persons’ knowledge, his experiences and what he reads, hears and sees.

Of course, these humankind books would leave a very limited influence. However, when talking about the book of ALLAH almighty who created humans and who knows what’s inside a person’s soul and how to fix it, it is natural to find that this great book contains all the information the humankind will need in this life and the hereafter. Quran is the light, the healing, and the gaudiness... throughout it we find the past and the future. It is the book of ALLAH who said about it: (Falsehood cannot come to it from before it or behind it (it is) sent down by the All-Wise, Worthy of all praise) [Fussilat: 42].

I can guarantee you my dear brothers and sisters that every verse you read, comprehend and memorize can modify your life! Imagine who reads and memorizes the Quran in his heart? No doubt that reciting Quranic verses, understanding them and listening to them in conscious will alter and rebuild a new personality. That’s because the Quran contains the foundations and the bases to build a personality.
I want to tell you a simple experience about how effective the Quran can be on someone’s personality; even the influence of just one verse! I read once the verse: (and it may be that you dislike a thing which is good for you and that you like a thing which is bad for you. ALLAH knows but you do not know) [Al-Baqarah: 216].
And I have said that this verse must contain a verdict that brings happiness for who follows it in his life.
Before I read this verse, I used to become sad because of losing something, experiencing a misfortune, or become frightened from the future predicting that something wrong will occur, or to go through stress and worry waiting for something I need to accomplish and other things that would cause my personality to be apprehensive sometimes.
After I read and glanced at this verse, and comprehended it for a long time, I found that ALLAH Almighty has put fate for everything, and that nothing will occur without his commands. And that ALLAH will not choose for me except what is good for me because he knows the future, but I don’t. Hence, I changed into looking at everything while being optimistic rather than being pessimistic.
ALLAH Almighty wrote for me everything that would take place in my life since I was 42 days old, why should I get upset? And since ALLAH is there for us, near us, sees and hears us, and controls this universe, why should I be miserable, worried, or depressed?? And since this is a fate ALLAH wrote it and chose it for me, it must be good and contains advantages and happiness.
That’s how my personality became altered and I became optimistic and happy and I avoided many problems that could have happened except that what ALLAH blessed me with understanding the verse and be able to practice it in my life.
And now dear brothers and sisters, lets picture with me the adjustment that would happen to one of us if you read the whole Quran and realize its meaning and practice it! There will be such a huge changes; your personality would be modified into 180 degrees towards the better.
In conclusion, connecting and holding on to the Quran will influence the human personality positively, increase his immune system response, prevents psychological diseases, and help him to achieve success and to select the right choices. The Quran is your way of accomplishment, Triumph, success, and happiness.

New Proof From "Mary" Chapter



One of the scientists, who converted to Islam, noticed something about this Surah after a long time thinking and processing..….

Dr Millar, one of the mathematics scientists who converted to Islam, amazed me with his observation when he tried to read the Quran expecting that he would read things concerning the Prophet’s wife, his companions or a story about his life. Instead, he found a whole Surah talking about Marian

This scientist was astonished. While the four bibles didn’t specify a chapter for Miriam “peace be upon her”, neither her name was mentioned two nor three times, he found that Miriam's name was repeated in the Quran 34 times. Moreover, there was positive reception and admiration about Miriam “peace be upon her” in all the verses that her named was mentioned in. If Muhammad “peace be upon him” was the one who wrote the Quran, why did he specify a large space to talk about the Christ and his mother…. And forget about his wife Khadija for example?

Eisa’s name (Jesus) was mentioned 25 times in the Quran, and the Christ’s name was mentioned 11 times. However, Muhammad's name was mentioned 4 times only! If we glanced at all the Quran verses, we find that they come from a God source. More often, the speech comes in the glorifying (plural) format, for example: (Verily, We, it is we who have sent down the Dhikr (i.e. the Quran) and surely, We will guard it (from corruption) [ Al-Hijr:9].(Verily, We will inherit the earth and whatsoever is thereon. And to Us they all shall be returned) [Miriam: 40]. (Verily, We give life to the dead, and We record that which they send before (them), and their traces and all things We have recorded with numbers (as a record) in a Clear Book) [Ya-sin: 12]. (Verily, We it is Who give life and cause death; and to Us is the final return) [Qaf: 43]. (Verily, it is We Who have sent down the Quran to you (O Muhammad) by stages) [A-Insan: 23].

Lets look momentarily to the format these verses were revealed in which couldn’t be written by Muhammad peace be upon him. If the prophet is the one who came up with the Quran, why does it speak to people in the plural format (Verily, We); why it did not say (I)? The reason is very simple; the one who revealed the Quran is ALLAH almighty. He who created the universe, he who gives life and causes death. Glorified (and exalted) be He above all that they associate with him.

In this Surah, the Christ and his mother “peace be upon them” were mentioned, and the Quran corrected the lies that the Jews made up for this great woman. It purified her from polytheism and disbelief and chose her above the women of mankind and jinn.

Here we ask the question: what does Muhammad “peace be upon him” benefit from correcting these lies. Why are all the prophets, in the Quran, mentioned in great honor, compared to Torah which claims that Allah's prophets had committed adultery, drinking, lying, and cheating…… why does this prophet (Muhammad peace be upon him) do these corrections and where does he bring this information from?

The answer is very simple; the one who taught the prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) is ALLAH almighty who knows the truths about everything. That is why this Surah witnesses the truth about the Quran, not as they claimed, that Muhammad took the information from the Torah and the Bible.

If that argument was true, we should have seen either a replication of the bible tale, or denying it. However, the Quran came with the true story which makes sense logically and scientifically.

It befits not the Majesty of ALLAH who created the universe, that he should beget a son. What does he need a son for? What is the profession of that son? Is he a God or what does he do? That is why we find that even a young child accepts the oneness of the lordship of ALLAH which is a proof that the humankind was created believing and witnessing that ALLAH is the one and the only God.

The Survival of Pharaoh



Allah All Mighty said to Pharaoh, "This day shall We save thee in the body" … And today we can see his body...

Pharaoh was the tyrant of his time… Allah Almighty recounts the story of Pharaoh, his tyranny and end: (And Pharaoh said: "O Chiefs! no god do I know for you but myself: therefore, O Haman! light me a (kiln to bake bricks) out of clay, and build me a lofty palace, that I may mount up to the god of Moses: but as far as I am concerned, I think (Moses) is a liar!" - And he (Pharaoh) was arrogant and insolent in the land, beyond reason,- He and his hosts: they thought that they would not have to return to Us! - So We seized him and his hosts, and We flung them into the sea: Now behold what was the end of those who did wrong!) [Al Qasas: 38 – 40].

Allah willed that Pharaoh drawn and that only his body survives so that the people after him can witness that phenomenon that scientists marvel at. The body of Pharaoh was found intact. The scientists who participated in the autopsy of the corpse were astonished how his body survived and recovered intact despite him drowning to such depths. This is what we were told in the Quran, as Allah Almighty says “This day shall We save thee in the body, that thou mayest be a sign to those who come after thee! but verily, many among mankind are heedless of Our Signs!" [Yunus: 92].

We can not say but, Subhana Allah!

Charity And Happiness

A great text had drew my attention in God’s book be he blessed and exalted….
A great text had drew my attention in God’s book be he blessed and exalted which confirms on the importance of expenditure and charity with a little amount of money to poor, and god confirms in this noble text that who expend his money for the sake of god will not be afraid or sad, so he will be happy, god be he blessed and exalted says: (The likeness of those who spend their wealth in the Way of Allah, is as the likeness of a grain (of corn); it grows seven ears, and each ear has a hundred grains. Allah gives manifold increase to whom He wills. And Allah is All-Sufficient for His creatures’ needs, All-Knower.(261) Those who spend their wealth in the Cause of Allah, and do not follow up their gifts with reminders of their generosity or with injury, their reward is with their Lord. On them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve. (262)) verses 261-262(ALBAKARA).
There are many verses that links between charity and human happiness in the world and in the hereafter, but a recent research had been issued and published by magazine of sciences confirm on this Quranic reality!!! This scientific news was published on the website of the BBC that the researchers had found a relation between expenditure and happiness, so I would like to transfer the exact text from the website with a comment with a verse or Hadith on each part of it:
“Canadian researches says that earning huge amounts of money don’t bring happiness to human, but expending money on the others makes human happy. a team of researchers in British Colombia university says that expending any amount of money on others even a five dollars makes psyche happy.
They confirm that the expenditure is essential even with a little amount, isn’t the same with what our prophet confirmed when he said: (avoid the fire even with half a date)!! Also it was confirmed by Quran as god be he exalted said Let the rich man spend according to his means; and the man whose resources are restricted, let him spend according to what Allah has given him. Allah puts no burden on any person beyond what He has given him. Allah will grant after hardship, ease. ) Verse 7 (ALTALAAK).
Also it was stated in the published research in the magazine of sciences that employees who spent part of their earned incentives were happier than others who didn’t do the same. Researchers had made studies on 630 person as they asked them to estimate their happiness, their annul income and details about their monthly expenditures which includes paying bills, what they buy for themselves and gifts for others. Head of the team professor Elizabeth Dan says" we wanted to examine our theory that the importance of how people spend their money is equally to how they earn that money” also she says regardless the earned income people who spent money on others were more happier than who spent it on themselves.
That is the results of their researches, and that what god told us when he link between expending and getting rid of fear and sadness which is earning the happiness Those who spend their wealth (in Allah’s Cause) by night and day, in secret and in public, they shall have their reward with their Lord. On them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.) Verse 274(ALBAKARA) and says Is there any reward for good other than good?) Verse 60(ALRAHMAN).
After that the team started to evaluate degree of happiness of 16 workers in an organization in Boston before and after receiving incentives (between $3000 and $8000). From the results it seemed that it wasn’t important amount of incentive but the important was how people spent that incentive. As those who spent or donate with a big portion of their incentive on others said they got benefits more than people who spent their incentive on their needs.
This result made us believes that when people spend money, they will not lose and money will not be decreased but it increases!! Wasn’t that confirmed by our prophet peace be upon him when he said spent money in charity doesn’t decrease)? So whatever you spend form that money it will not decrease but it increases as this spending gives a feeling of happiness which allow people to think correctly to get money in a better way.
So, god undertakes to double the spent money, god says: (Who is he that will lend to Allah a goodly loan so that He may multiply it to him many times? And it is Allah that decreases or increases (your provisions), and unto Him you shall return) verse 245(ALBAKARA). We read about Bill Gates the richest man in the world that he decided to donate with a big portion of his wealth which is about tens of billions because he felt that it is essential to do this to feel with happiness!!!
In another experiment researchers gave each person of a group of 46 persons 5$ or 20$ and they asked them to spend it by the evening of the same day at five o’clock, and they asked half of participants to spend the money on themselves and the others to spend it on other people.
People who spent money on others said they feel happy more than people who spent the money on themselves, regardless the value of money they spent. Dan says: this study gives an initial indication that the way people spend their money has the same importance as how much they earn.
Here we remember our prophet peace be upon him when Aisha gave a sheep as an alms but she kept the shoulder to the prophet because he like to eat it, so she said: the sheep was gone but the shoulder was remained, so he said: don’t say that but say shoulder was gone and rest of the sheep was remained !!as he likes to spend more than to keep, and this is one of the secrets of happiness that discovered by scientists.
Today researchers confirm that one of earning money reasons is to spend part of it on those who need it. Which means that spending is a reason of Livelihood reasons and that was confirmed in the Quran in the linking between spending and generous Livelihood, god be he exalted says Who perform As-Salât (Iqâmat-as-Salât) and spend out of that we have provided them. (3) It is they who are the believers in truth. For them are grades of dignity with their Lord, and Forgiveness and a generous provision (Paradise). (4)) verse 3, 4(ALANFAL).
Professor Elizabeth says:” spending money on others could be an efficient way to achieve happiness more than spending money on the person himself”. And Doctor George Feldman the Psychology Specialist in the new Buckingham University says:” donating for charity works makes you feels better because you are in a group. Also it makes people looks at you as if you prefer others on yourself. So if I gave you anything it will reduce the probability of attacking me by you and increase the probability of treating me well by you."
They put an abbreviated advice in says: “don’t hoard money” here we remember the Divine warningO you who believe! Verily, there are many of the (Jewish) rabbis and the (Christian) monks who devour the wealth of mankind in falsehood, and hinder (them) from the Way of Allah (i.e. Allah’s religion of Islamic Monotheism). And those who hoard up gold and silver [Al-Kanz: the money, the Zakât of which has not been paid] and spend them not in the Way of Allah, announce unto them a painful torment.(34) On the Day when that (Al-Kanz: money, gold and silver the Zakât of which has not been paid) will be heated in the Fire of Hell and with it will be branded their foreheads, their flanks, and their backs, (and it will be said unto them): "This is the treasure which you hoarded for yourselves. Now taste of what you used to hoard." (35))Verses 34, 35 (ALTAWBA).
God imposed (Zakât), because he wants us to be happy, and he warned us to not to hoard money by non spending in welfare and science fields, and may be the best kind of spending is to spend on correcting the west perspective about Islam, through spending on the Quranic researches that aim to show the grandeur of Islam and our prophet peace be upon him, and look at this marvelous verse: (Say: "Truly, my Lord enlarges the provision for whom He wills of His slaves, and (also) restricts (it) for him, and whatsoever you spend of anything (in Allah’s Cause), He will ******* it. And He is the Best of providers.”) Verse 39 (SABAA).

The Speediest Spreading Religion

The western statistics confirm that Islam is the speediest spreading religion in the world, particularly in western countries. Therefore, what are the indicators? Is there any prophetic or Qur’anic miracle? Let’s read….
"Fast-growing Islam winning converts in Western world", report published by CNN site, admits that an amazing number of people is increasingly and rapidly embracing each year in the western world. More 1200 mosques have been built in the United States within 12 years (average of hundred mosques per year). The most astonishing fact is that majority of Americans embracing Islam become Islamic preacher after that they marvelously respect and apply the observance!
In spite of lack of accurate statistics, majority of researchers confirm that, after the 11 sep. events, more than 20 thousands American are embracing Islam each year. Contrary to all expectations, saying that the number of new Muslims is getting down, the news studies have shown (indicated) that the number of adopting Islam has considerably increased after the 11 sep. events! But why?
In my point of view, he who reads about Islam will soon realize that this is the true religion. In this context, ALLAH told us about Pharaoh Nation that realized Islam is the true religion but denied it. The Almighty says: ‘’Then as soon as Our signs came to them, a beholding, (i.e., as a proof from Allah) they said,"This is evident sorcery."And they repudiated them, and their selves had (inner) certitude of them, out of injustice and exaltation. So look into how was the end of the corruptors.’’ (TMQ, Sû ‍rat An-Naml (The Ant):13-14)
Hence, American experts explain that America has never witnessed such high rate of people embracing Islam like it happened after the 11 sep. events! Buying Islamic books in a wide way after these events, this enables people to have better acquaintance with Islam from its sources. Therefore, they could redress their idea about Islam and easily embrace it.
The most amazing
The most amazing for researches today, is that these new Muslims are becoming Islamic preachers. You find the new Muslim calling his wife, his children, his parents. Then, he starts with his friends and neighbors and so on. Thus, Islam completely changes in the personality of the adopters. The person gives up drinking wine after being accustomed years long, adultery and all what offend Allah. His only care is that Allah the Almighty be satisfied, and here is the glorification of Islam.
What are the reasons?
If we consider the stories of those adopting Islam, we find that most of them haven’t adopted Islam because of science or math miracle, but because he read about Islam and found it a convincing religion that satisfies his desires and fulfils his ambitions. Thus, the real factor is the need to this religion because they find their need in it.
Here, dears, I would like to say if just we do our duty as Muslims in spreading miracles of Qur’an, the number of people who embrace Islam will be incredibly huge!!! Because miracle is a very strong weapon and it is also the weapon of prophets facing atheists and doubtful people. Thus, we should be interested by this science, ei; the miracle science, and find out all means that make it available for non-Muslims.

This show represents the biggest gathering in all over the world, more than 3 million Muslims meet in one place to express how they love and they are fond of this true religion. The most fantastic thing in Islam is the strength of its instructions and their continuity and the wonderful effect on adopters. This proves that it is the true religion, and everything else is vain. The latest statistics reveal that Islam will be the first religion in the world in terms of number within few years!!
What did they find in Islam?
‘’What did you find in Islam?’’, this is a frequently asked question to new Muslims. The answer is often that this person found the reality he has been looking for in Islam. They confirm they found that Islam is the natural religion with no difficulties, no contradictions. Glorified be Allah, it occurs to me the noble verse in which Allah told us about this:"So set your face upright to the religion, unswervingly upright; (this religion is) the original disposition from Allah upon which He originated (Literally: constituted) mankind. There is no exchange for the creation of Allah. That is the most upright religion, but most of mankind do not know.”(TMQ, Surat Ar-Rû‍m (The Romans):30)
Islam is the religion of natural disposition and this has been confirmed by the greatest Prophet (All Prayers and Peace of Allah be upon him) saying: ‘’everyone is born on his nature disposition’’. This is what an adopter can feel when he embraces Islam. Because Islam is the religion of simplicity, religion of natural disposition, the religion you feel close to you.
Then, if ask you anyone having recently embraced Islam about his opinion on the new religion he will soon respond that he doesn’t feel any change from religion to another, but he came back to the natural religion of people, that is Islam. One of new Islam adopters has been asked what pleased him in Islam he said it is totally normal to like Islam, because it is the only religion that address mind and soul all together.
The biggest rate goes to women!
The latest statistics indicate that the rate of women embracing Islam is huge in Europe and America, as confirmed by the researcher Karin van Nieuwkerk in her new book: women embracing Islam, saying that woman finds in Islam fairness, dignity and respect from man.
Today, west woman is suffering from man humiliation, used as interest-tool; publicity, advertising, gain-machine, pleasure tool only. Whereas Islam has put her in very high position being mother and educator. Prophet (All Prayers and Peace of Allah be upon him) said: ‘’ Treat women in a good way’’. As far as Qur’an is concerned, she has been treated as ‘’abundant good’’ that no one can hate her or mistreat her. For this Allah the Almighty says:"And consort with them with beneficence; so in case you hate them, then it is possible you may hate something, and Allah sets in it much charity (i.e. benefit)."(TMQ, An-Nisa (Women): 19).
So where can you find such testament in today’s world laws?! Every woman hears this verse should respect Islam and adopt it soon. The problem is not in Islam neither in its instructions but in means that distorted its image and is still doing so.
The story that has drawn my attention
I have always admired reading stories of those that Allah guided to the straight path of Islam. Therefore, I have always been following those stories and influenced by them, and have been astonished about the big effect of Islam on those people.
There is a very nice story about a British university student who read about Islam and decided to embrace this true religion.
However, a friend of him told him that Islam is the religion of killing, terrorism, oppression!! He answered him that he has read about Islam and he is quite convinced by this mission. Then his friend asked him to give him just one month and he will prove that Islam is the religion of legends.
Then, he went searching in Islamic books and reading Qur’an in order to find things that are in contradiction with the new science. Nevertheless, he was very surprised when he found that Qur’an mentions a lot of accurate scientific realities that he could not imagine. He came back to his friend embracing Islam before him!!
His friend was very astonished and said: I thought you come to convince me not to embrace Islam, but you are doing it before me!!! He answered him: I found that Islam is the true religion, but the western medias have distorted the image of Islam. Thus, I advise you to embrace this religion soon. Because Qur’an is the only book that conforms to the new science!
Hence, brothers, any person studies Qur’an would soon recognize that there is no contradiction neither disagreement in it. This is why Allah recommended us to examine the Qur’an:"Will they not then contemplate the Qur’an? And if it had been from (any where) other than the Providence of Allah, indeed they would have found in it many difference (s).’’ (TMQ, An-Nisa (Women): 82).
Facts from the Book and the Sunnah (Tradition of the Prophet)
Calling to Islam has started since 1400 years by one man, who is Mohamed (All Prayers and Peace of Allah be upon him), and has reached today more than 1400 million Muslims!! But in the beginning, believers were few, and within this weakness and smallness the greatest Prophet spoke about Islam huge spread and that Muslims will be existing all over the world!!
In the beginning of their calling to Allah, Muslims suffered a lot from polytheists’ injustice, evil and being a group of few numbers. What did the compassionate, the merciful Prophet Mohamed (All Prayers and Peace of Allah be upon him)? How did he announced them the good news about what is happening in the future, and how did he raise them somebody spirits,? Words that nobody can say in such circumstances in the beginning, no one can predict about the future of Islam at that time unless a prophet receiving revelation.
The Prophet (All Prayers and Peace of Allah be upon him) says to his companions: ‘’This will reach what reached the night and the day’’. That is to say that Islam will spread wherever there is night and day all over the earth. Indeed, western statistical studies say that today Islam exists everywhere on earth!!
This has been confirmed by Qur’an in a noble verse that this religion will spread all over the world and will prevail over all the other religions: ‘’He is (The One) Who has sent His Messenger with the guidance and the religion of the Truth, that He (would) make it topmost above all religion; and Allah suffices as an Ever-Present Witness.’’ (TMQ,Al-Fateh (the Conquest):28).
And in this verse, isn’t there a miracle that witness the truth of this religion?! Islam spread we witness today and the western confession that Islam is the speediest and the largest spread religion?

Miracle of Islam Spread



There are 1.5 Billion Muslims over the world, and after few years, the Islam will be the first religion….

Here is a new prophecy, in this prophecy prophet Mohummed predicted the swift spreading of Islam and that Islam would cover the whole of the earth. We will get to know this through this modern statistics regarding the number of Moslems all over the world .

Islam has begun with just one person; he was prophet Mohummed . The number of Moslems has become more than one thousand and four hundred million Moslems now !! what is the reason behind this astounding swift spread of the number of Moslems and what do the international statistics says about the number of Moslems nowadays ?

There are more than 4200 religions all over the world (1)and the statistics says the Islam is the most widely –spread religion as in 1999 the number of Moslems reached 1200 million Moslems (2), Nowadays the number of Moslems is growing increasingly in the six known continents as follows 3)

• In Asia, the total number of Moslems has reached 780 Millions .
• In Africa, the total number of Moslems has reached 308 Millions .
• In Europe, the total number of Moslems has reached 32 Millions .
• In America, the total number of Moslems has reached 7 Millions .
• In Australia, the total number of Moslems has reached 358 thousands .

The number of Moslems was less than the number of Christians in 1900 ,but the number of the Moslems will be more than the number of the Christians because of the great growth the Islamic religion .(4)

• In 1900 the number of Moslems went as far as 12.4% while the number of Christians went as far as 26.9%.
• In 1980 the number of Moslems all over the world went as far as 16.5% while the number of Christians went as far as 30%.
• In 2000 the number of Moslems went as far as 19.2% while the number of Christians went as far as 29.8%.
• But in 2025 the number of the Moslems will go as far as 30% but the number of Christians will go as far as 25%.
• And now we come to the conclusion that Islam is increasing at the rate of 2.9%
• a year and this is the highest rate of growth in the world .(5)

Through an astounding prophetical miracle , our great prophet showed that Islam will cover the whole of the earth , prophet Mohummed said " Islam will go as far as day and night go" and this means that Islam will reach every part in the earth that day and the night reach and this what happened because in every country now you can find Moslems , and if we remember that prophet Mohummed said these words when the Moslems were very few in number, in addition to their weakness , also they were in conditions that were so hard that no one could expect that Islam would spread to reach each corner of the earth , we will understand the greatness of this miracle . This hadith to Moslems - was a consolation over their weakness and their being few in number , if Mohummed hadn't been a prophet sent from God , he would not have dared to tell his companions that Islam would stretch to every corner in the earth – how could he be sure of that ?!

Only God, who knows the Unseen told Mohummed of this fact so as to tell his companions about it more than 1400 years ago and also to be a true sign of his prophethood .

Also one of the indications of this miracle is that prophet Mohummed associated the spread of Islam with day and nigh ,and as you know that day and night reach every point in the earth , Islam does that too. This was something that could not be imagined at that time . Another important scientific miracle is latent in the above mentioned words of prophet Mohummed is that no one – at that time –knew how far day and night go at that time , and no one knew at that time that the earth is round in shape and no one dared to imagine that Islam would stretch to every corner in the earth .

God says in the holy Qu'ran: " Fain would they put out the light of Allah with their mouths, but Allah disdaineth (aught) save that He shall perfect His light, however much the disbelievers are averse. . He it is who hath sent His messenger with the guidance and the Religion of Truth, that He may cause it to prevail over all religion, however much the idolaters may be averse. " [9/32-33].

After you contemplate about this verse" He may cause it to prevail over all religion," don't you think that it is a sign that Islam will be the most widely -spread religion all over the world ? and this what will happen soon , God willing ! Statistics says that Islam will be the most widely- spread religion in number in the year 2025 and this fact is accurate and not an overstatement.
