Two Kinds of sustenance

Actually there are two kinds of sustenance. The first as ibtilaa (trials) and the second as ishthifa (optional).

Sustenance of a temptation is sustenance that does not exist any relationship with God. Even the sustenance of this one make people further away from God, until finally he lost. Toward this, Allah Ta'ala has hinted:

"Laa tulhikum amwaalukum"
property you do not get to kill you. (Al-Munaafiqun: 10)

Sustenance as ishthifa is reserved for God's sustenance. God will be protective for people like that. And everything that is on them, they regard as belonging to God alone. And that they prove their deeds of charity.

Look at the condition of the Companions of the Prophet when the trial comes, and all things that exist in one of them, all delivered in the way of Allah ta'ala. Abu Bakr ra was the most first-come, wearing a cloth hand over all his property. And Allah ta'ala has replied to the reward for the cloth, ie was he who first became caliph.

In summary to be filled by a true beauty, goodness and spiritual delights, a treasure that can be useful is a treasure that is spent in Allah's way.

Chasing Heaven with Terror?

It is not lawful for a Muslim to frighten another Muslim "(Hadith of the Prophet, Abu Dawud).

"... That if anyone slew a person unless it be (kill) another person, or for spreading mischief in the land, then as if he had killed all mankind. And those who preserve the life of a human being, then as if he has maintained all of human life ... ".
(Al-Ma'idah-32)


Reason Jihad becomes a justification for terrorist groups to conduct terror of bombing. The shadows want to go to heaven seems to be a strong driving force despite his own and others' lives at stake.
Although the aim to combat the extreme dominance of a distinguished American occupation of Muslim countries like Iraq and Afghanistan, but because it did not Penteror region of the war, the world condemned their actions. Moreover, who became the victims were people who had nothing to do with problems that they mean.

O Brother which involved acts of terror, to speak of heaven do you expect to do suicide or perform jihad terror, then there is no guarantee you go to heaven. God's grace is who will decide. And the grace of God is near to those who do good.

Islam is a simple principle; the doctrine of monotheism and Doing good to fellow humans.

With terror, then this is certainly far from the teachings of doing good. Moreover, to kill. Suicide is forbidden, let alone kill the soul of many people. This course precedes the right of Allah Owner all animate beings.

Al-Quran describes killing of innocent people just like killing all mankind. So what if his responsibility to kill tens or even hundreds of innocent people?

Snap! Realize! the terrorists, God is giving forgiveness.

islamic spirituality and others

Voice of America

Many Muslims worry that the terrorist attacks committed in the name of Islam created the false impression that faith is the nature of violence. A group of American Muslims have launched a campaign in Times Square to counter that impression.

Amid the lights in Times Square in New York City are advertising various goods and services - from restaurants to theaters, from medicine to the New York Yankees baseball team.
This holiday season, there are also 15 second video which was sponsored by the people of Islam for Peace , which followed a group of peace in Islamic tradition. It promotes the message of Islam, fidelity in love and peace.

Unfortunately Muslims are sometimes being labeled as terrorism, or are not loyal to the country (America), but we are a very fundamental doctrine, which must be in love with the country where he lived.

He said the campaign "Muslims for Peace" is encouraged as a response to the terrorist bombing attempt in Times Square in May last year ". We decided that we did not want to just sit back and condemn the terrorism of our seats, but we really want to come out and show to people that we are a peaceful Muslim. " he said again.

Along with videos of which the activities in Times Square and across America is handing out leaflets to passersby.

This is to explain that the campaign "Muslims for Peace" is part of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, an Islamic group that organized more than a century ago. Its founder, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad of India, urged his followers to defend Islam by the sword, but with a pen (writing). Ahmadiyya Muslims claimed more than 15,000 mosques and tens of millions of followers.

Among those who received the brochure Joe Coyle, a commercial real estate agent from New Jersey. "I've traveled throughout the United States. We are here just get together and build our country to make great things here. I support all the good things being done. I have many friends from many religions and how it should be. I wish them luck today and for them to reach out and learn their message, may God bless, "he said.

  1. Never in doubt if you will give the name of the baby , especially a baby name of Islam.
  2. Intend in your heart that will give the best baby name for your baby, start by reading Bismillah.
  3. Nothing wrong with making a list the names of your choice at least 10 names of choice.
  4. Negotiate with your family, if necessary with your close relatives, because I'm sure some people will differ from the assessment of the baby names. This was done lest you think the name is good, it is considered not good for your brother.
  5. Specify baby's name at least one week before your baby's birth
  6. Do not forget to have two baby name of Islam, of course, men and women, because in my experience 100% inaccurate physician estimates of the sex of your baby in the estimate, especially if your baby is female.
