Atheists in Quran (12) their odd wish

The Atheists requested an odd wish that their punishment be hastened instead of asking that they be given Allah’s guidance and praying for His grace and forgiveness. The Atheists have switched off all the abilities and talents Allah has given to them.

———————————

The Surah No.13 of the Quran discusses the basic issue of faith, namely the revelation of Allah’s book, the Quran, and the truth it contains. This frames the foundation over which all the other issues of faith are built, including those of the oneness of Allah, belief in the hereafter, and the need to do good acts in this life.

All these comes out from the central point of believing that the One who commands us is Allah, and that the Quran is His revelation to the last Prophet Muhammad

The Surah starts with such panoramic scenes from the vast universe, but then speaks of people who remain uninspired by all these signs around them, visible in every aspect of creation. Their hearts and minds remain oblivious to the fact that behind all these marvels lies the great power of the Almighty Creator.

This is because their minds are in chains and their hearts bound.

They cannot contemplate the vast universal scenes around them.

The verses 13:5-6 say:

“But if you are amazed, amazing, too, is their saying:‘What! After we have become dust, shall we be raised [to life] in a new act of creation?’

Who say that? The Atheists who deny their Lord.

They are the ones who:

1. Carry their own manacles around their necks
2. Are ordained for the eternal fire wherein they will abide.

It is quite amazing that after all of Allah’ signs people should wonder:

‘What! After we have become dust, shall we be raised to life in a new act of creation?’

Allah has created the great universe and manages its affairs in meticulous fashion,

Is not He certainly able to resurrect human beings in a new act of creation.

And if you are wondering, because of their statement, then that [statement of theirs] itself is the cause for wonder, since man becomes a new creation in every minute, indeed, the world [itself] becomes a new creation at every moment by the changing of configurations, states, conditions and forms. How can one who has contemplated the world of engenderment and corruption with a heedful eye deny the [reality of] new creation? Those are the ones who, have been veiled from the essential vision of the acts and the self-disclosures of [His] Lordliness, and how much more so [are they veiled] from the self-disclosures of the divine attributes?

However, the Atheists refuse to believe this, lacking faith in their Lord who created them.

You will see their punishment will completed when the Angels throw them in the fire of hell where they will abide forever.

The Atheists have switched off all the abilities and talents Allah has given to man and has honored man on their account.

They have also accepted a low position in this life.

This earns them an even lower life in the hereafter, simply because they have lived their first life making no use of their abilities, talents, feelings and emotions.

Sinful Wrongdoers and odd wish

The Atheists wonder that Allah will bring them back to life after their death, yet it is their being amazed that is indeed amazing.

The Atheists at the time of the Prophet Muhammad ask that their punishment be hastened instead of asking that they be given Allah’s guidance and praying for His grace: “They ask you to hasten evil rather than good.”

Just as they do not look at the universe around them and do not contemplate its multitude of signs, they do not look at the fate of those communities before them.

Those communities adopted the same attitude, precipitating Allah’s punishment, and it came fast upon them, making of them a lesson to any future community:

“They ask you to hasten evil rather than good, although exemplary punishments have indeed come to pass before their time.”

Read the History of all messengers from Noah to Muhammad to know the outcome of the Atheists.

However, the Atheists are unaware even of the fate of the ancient generations that carry an effective lesson for those who wish to learn.

Look how the Quran answered them:

“Your Lord always extends forgiveness to people despite their wrongdoing.”

He bestows His mercy on them even if they commit injustice and wrongdoing, allowing them time to reevaluate and reconsider their position.

Allah allows them a chance to repent so that He will forgive them.

However, those Atheists who persist with their evil and wrongdoing, and remain unwilling to enter through the gate of Allah’s forgiveness, will find that Allah’s punishment is severe indeed.

“Your Lord is certainly severe in retribution.”

It should be emphasized that the verse puts Allah’s forgiveness ahead of His punishment to contrast it with those who pray for punishment rather than Allah’s guidance.

This demonstrates the great distance between the goodness that Allah wants for them and the evil they seek for themselves.

The verse illustrates how misguided, blind and abject the Atheists are.

The verses 13:5-6 in different translations:

QARIB:

5-If you would wonder, then wondrous is their saying: ‘when we are dust, shall we be raised to life again, a new creation? ‘Such are those who disbelieve in their Lord. their necks shall be fettered. They shall be the inhabitants of the fire, in it they shall live forever.

6-They bid you to hasten the evil before the good, yet examples have passed away before them. Your Lord is forgiving to people despite their evildoing; yet your Lord is stern in retribution.

SHAKIR:

5-And if you would wonder, then wondrous is their saying: what! When we are dust, shall we then certainly be in a new creation? These are they, who disbelieve in their Lord, and these have chains on their necks, and they are the inmates of the fire; in it they shall abide

6-And they ask you to hasten on the evil before the good, and indeed there have been exemplary punishments before them; and most surely your Lord is the Lord of forgiveness to people, notwithstanding their injustice; and most surely your Lord is severe in requiting (evil)

PICKTHAL:

5-And if thou wonderest, then wondrous is their saying: when we are dust, are we then forsooth (to be raised) in a new creation? Such are they who disbelieve in their Lord; such have carcans on their necks; such are rightful owners of the fire, they will abide therein.

6-And they bid thee hasten on the evil rather than the good, when exemplary punishments have indeed occurred before them. But lo! Thy Lord is rich in pardon for mankind despite their wrong, and lo! Thy Lord is strong in punishment.

YUSUFALI:

5-If thou dost marvel (at their want of faith), strange is their saying: “when we are (actually) dust, shall we indeed then be in a creation renewed?” they are those who deny their Lord! They are those round whose necks will be yokes (of servitude): they will be companions of the fire, to dwell therein (for aye)!

6-They ask thee to hasten on the evil in preference to the good: yet have come to pass, before them, (many) exemplary punishments! But verily thy Lord is full of forgiveness for mankind for their wrong-doing, and verily thy Lord is (also) strict in punishment.

Angels in Islam (24) every man will see them-C

Either you believe in Allah or you do not, you will undoubtedly see the Angels face to face at the moment of your death. But the important question is how the Angels deal with the believers and the unbelievers and what the Angels will say to each party.

———————————————

The meanings of the verse 8:50-51

And if you could see, O Muhammad, how the Angels deal with the unbelievers at the moment of their death, you would truly have seen a terrible sight’

And if you could see, O Muhammad, when the Angels take away the disbelievers’ souls, beating and smiting their faces and their backs, with hooked iron rods, and,

They say to them: ‘Taste the chastisement of burning, Taste the severe punishment of the Eternal Fire.

That, chastisement, is for what you have done in the life of this world; you have disobeyed Allah’s Law.

And, be aware that Allah is neither unjust nor oppressor to His servants, such that he would never punish them unless they are sinful.

On the other hand, compare the above with how the Angels deal with the believers at the moment of their death (41:30-32)

The meanings of the verse 41:30-32

Truly those who say, ‘Our Lord is Allah!’ and then remain upright, adhering to the affirmation of Allah’s divine Oneness and to whatever else has been enjoined on them, how the Angels deal with them at the moment of their death?

The Angels descend upon them when their souls are taken away saying to them:

• Do not fear death and what will come after it?
• Do not grieve about what you have left behind (any family or children that you have left behind) for we will look after them after you, and
• Rejoice in the good tidings of the paradise which you were promised in the life of the world..
• We are your protecting friends in the life of this world, that is, we will look after you in it, and in the Hereafter, in other words, we will be alongside you thereat until you enter Paradise; and therein you will have whatever your souls desire, and therein you will have whatever you request,
• This is a gift of welcome and hospitality from Allah, the Forgiving (He forgives those who repent) and the Merciful (towards those who die repentant).

 

To sum up, every man will see the Angels when he dies.

But how they look like? Are they beautiful or ugly?

SHAKIR:

50-And had you seen when the Angels will cause to die those who disbelieve, smiting their faces and their backs, and (saying): taste the punishment of burning

51-This is for what your own hands have sent on before, and because Allah is not in the least unjust to the servants;

32-“A hospitable gift from one oft-forgiving, most merciful!”

In Bible vs. Quran, Jesus denied that He is God (11) His prayer

In the Bible, Jesus has prayed to God all night.

In the Quran, Jesus said: Allah has charged me with prayer and charity so long as I remain alive.

On the other hand, the Christians do not know the difference between prayer and supplication.

——————————————

The verse Luke 6:12 says: “And it came to pass in those days that He went out onto a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.” (21st Century King James Version).

 

Accordingly, this article discusses three points:

(1) Why Jesus (peace be upon Him) has prayed to God?

(2) The Christians do not know the difference between prayer and supplication

(3) How Jesus has prayed to God?

 

Let us begin with (2) and (3) then you will find the answer of (1)

The Christians do not know the difference between prayer and supplication.

If you ask, call, request, cry, plead or talk to God, it is but supplication not prayer.

In prayer to God, it is required to stand up and to kneel down (go down on your knees) and to rise up again. During these repeated movements, the one who prays has to read some of the Word of God and to glorify and praise God and Supplicate.

Although both the prayer and supplication are two kinds of worshipping God; however, prayer is superior to supplication because prayer includes supplication in it and not the vice versa.

Nevertheless, Christians think that supplication is prayer!

Attempting to make the difference between prayer and supplication clear, let us see how Jesus has prayed.

The Bible’s writers do not give us the details of how Jesus has prayed; however, you can hardly find few scattered words here and there about His prayer.

Jesus used to kneel down and to rise up (and so do the Muslims in their prayers)

Luke 22:41 says: “and (Jesus) kneeled down and prayed”

Luke 22:45 says: “And when He (Jesus) rose up from prayer”

One may ask: Would God pray to God? or would God pray to Himself?

The smart reader knows the answer and also the writers of Worldwide English (New Testament) which say: “About that time Jesus went out of the city on the hill to talk with God. He talked with God all night.”

Here, the editors of Worldwide English version do not say pray to God and replace it by talk and talked with God to avoid saying pray to God; to avoid answering the question: would God pray to God?  In addition, the editors of Worldwide English version do not know the difference between prayer and supplication?

——————————————

(1) Why Jesus (peace be upon Him) has prayed to God?

You will not find the answer in the Bible but you can find it in the Quran in the verse 19:31. In this verse, Allah has charged Jesus to pray and Jesus obeyed and prayed.

N.B. Allah commanded all Prophets from Noah to John the Baptist to pray.

For more details, read the article:

“In Bible vs. Quran, Jesus denied that He is God? (3) Sender vs. sent (c)”

 

Verse 19:31 in different translations

QARIB:

He (Allah) made me to be blessed wherever I am, and he has charged me with prayer and charity for as long as I shall live.

SHAKIR:

And He (Allah) has made me blessed wherever I may be, and he has enjoined on me prayer and poor-rate so long as I live;

PICKTHAL:

And (Allah) hath made me blessed wheresoever I may be, and hath enjoined upon me prayer and almsgiving so long as I remain alive,

YUSUFALI:

“And He (Allah) hath made me blessed wheresoever I be, and hath enjoined on me prayer and charity as long as I live;

This is Allah (44) Allah Sent Lot to his People Saying: Stop homosexuality

Allah’s Law: the Behinds of Both Men and Women is Prohibited

Have you ever Known or Seen a Homosexual Dog, Cat, Donkey etc?

Are there Other Creatures in Other Planets that Have Sexual Activity Like Man?

Historically, Lot’s Folk was the First Among all of the Creatures Committing Homosexuality

Lot Said: Stop Homosexuality and they Said: Expel this Pure Man from Our City

——————————————-

Many people do not know Allah.

This series is an attempt to help them in order to know and acknowledge their Creator.

Verses 7:80-84 of the Noble Quran talk about:

1) Allah sent Lot to his people saying: stop homosexuality,

2) Allah’s Law: the behinds of both men and women is prohibited,

3) historically, Lot’s folk was the first among all of the creatures committing homosexuality and

——————————————-

The meaning of verse 7:80

The verse mentions Lot and says: Allah sent Lot to his people; and He said to them people, Do you commit abomination, that is penetrating the rears of men, i.e. the homosexuality, such as no creature ever did this act before you?  In other words, such as no one in all the worlds ever committed before you, humans or jinn or any other creature?

This verse indicates that there are other creatures in the worlds which have sexual activity like man. These might include Jinn and other creatures in other planets that we have no idea about them.  Nevertheless, historically, Lot’s folk was the first among all of those creatures committing homosexuality.

Also, as far as I know, there is no homosexuality among the animals like dogs, cats etc.  Have you ever known or seen a homosexual dog, cat etc?

Subsequently, what about the marvel man?

 

The meaning of verse 7:81

indeed you come lustfully to men’s behinds instead of women?

Nay, you are a wanton folk, transgressing the bounds, going from what is lawful to what is unlawful. In other words, you transgress from the lawful to that which is prohibited.

 

The meaning of verse 7:82

And the answer of his people was only that they said mockingly:

“Expel Lot and his followers, from our city, Turn them out

Surely Lot and his followers are folk who would be pure!’, They are folk, forsooth, who keep pure, who avoid the behinds of men and women.”

 

The meaning of verse 7:83

So Allah delivered, rescued, saved Lot and his family, except his wife: she was of those who stayed behind, who remained in the chastisement and was therefore destroyed.

 

The meaning of verse 7:84

And Allah rained a rain upon them. Allah sent down upon them, the homosexuals, stones from heaven and destroyed them.

Consider O Muhammad the nature of the consequence for evil-doers! the end result of the idolaters is destruction. So behold what was the end of the sinners!

——————————————-

Verses 7:80-84 in different English translations of the meanings of Arabic Quran:

QARIB:

80) And lot, who said to his nation: ‘do you commit such indecency (sodomy) in a way that no one has preceded you in the worlds?

81) You approach men lustfully instead of women. truly, you are a nation who exceed (in sin). ‘

82) The only answer of his nation was: ‘expel them from your village. they are people who keep themselves purified. ‘

83) We saved him and all his family, except his wife, who was made to remain,

84) And we rained down upon them a rain. so look how was the end of the evildoers.

 

SHAKIR:

80) And (we sent) lut when he said to his people: what! do you commit an indecency which any one in the world has not done before you?

82) And the answer of his people was no other than that they said: turn them out of your town, surely they are a people who seek to purify (themselves)

83) So we delivered him and his followers, except his wife; she was of those who remained behind

84) And we rained upon them a rain; consider then what was the end of the guilty

 

PICKTHAL:

80) And lot! (remember) when he said unto his folk: will ye commit abomination such as no creature ever did before you?

81) Lo! ye come with lust unto men instead of women. nay, but ye are wanton folk.

82) And the answer of his people was only that they said (one to another): turn them out of your township. they are folk, forsooth, who keep pure.

83) And we rescued him and his household, save his wife, who was of those who stayed behind.

84) And we rained a rain upon them. see now the nature of the consequence of evil-doers!

 

YUSUFALI:

80) We also (sent) lut: he said to his people: “do ye commit lewdness such as no people in creation (ever) committed before you?

81) “For ye practise your lusts on men in preference to women : ye are indeed a people transgressing beyond bounds.”

82) And his people gave no answer but this: they said, “drive them out of your city: these are indeed men who want to be clean and pure!”

83) But we saved him and his family, except his wife: she was of those who legged behind.

84) And we rained down on them a shower (of brimstone): then see what was the end of those who indulged in sin and crime!

The Disbelievers are the Inhabitants of the Eternal Fire in the Hereafter

In the Hereafter, there shall no Fear befall the Believers neither shall they Grieve

The previous articles showed the story of Adam and Satan. 

In the Noble Quran, Allah told Adam that Satan is his manifest enemy. 

Satan made Adam disobeyed Allah and he committed the first sin in the history of mankind.

The previous article talked about Allah Has sent down onto man a garment, and the best is the garment of righteous deeds, Satan loves your nakedness to manifest your shameful parts and Satan and his tribe see you from whence you do not see them,

Then the previous articles showed the harmful effect of Satan on the disbelievers as regards their faith.

 

The meaning of verse 7:34

And every nation, every people that have a religion have its term, an appointed time for its end, and when its term, the time of their end come, they cannot put it off an hour; they are not given reprieve one fraction of a second after their appointed time nor yet advance it; they are not finished before the appointed time, even if it be by one fraction of a second. In short, every community has a term, a limited period of time. When their term comes they shall not delay it a single hour nor bring it forward.

 

The meaning of verse 7:35

O Children of Adam! If messengers from among you, of your own, which are human beings like you come unto you to narrate and recite unto you My revelations, explaining commands and prohibitions, then whosoever refrained from evil, whosoever believes in the Scripture and messenger and amended that which is between him and his Lord; then there shall no fear regarding torment come upon them neither shall they grieve about missing Paradise.

 

The meaning of verse 7:36

Allah loves (3) those who guard against evil

Allah loves those who keep their promise

The Trustworthiness and Treachery of the followers of the Scripture

——————————————————

Verse 3:75 of the Quran talks about the trustworthiness and treachery of the followers of the Scripture, some are honest and the others are dishonest.

Verse 3:76 honors those who keep their promise and says that Allah loves those who guard against evil.

——————————————————

The verse 3:75 means:

In this verse, Allah mentions the trustworthiness and treachery of the people of the Book, saying:

Among the People of the Scripture there is he who, if you trust him with a weight of treasure (with a hundredweight, that is, with much money), will return it to you without any problem, hardship or ever thinking to keep it for himself by declaring it lawful for him to take.

And among them there is he who, if you trust him with a piece of gold, will not return it to you and will declare it lawful for him to take unless you keep standing over him insisting on taking it back and suing him for it.

That treachery and declaring that it is lawful to take other people’s property is because they say: We have no duty to the Gentiles; there is no harm in taking the property of Arabs.

In other words, that refusal to return things, is because they say, ‘we have no duty towards, the Gentiles’, the Arabs; for they considered it lawful to be unjust towards any person of a different religion, and they attributed [the source of] this conviction to God, exalted be He.

They speak a lie concerning Allah knowingly;

They lie about Allah and know that they are lying.

The verse 3:76 means:

Nay, there is a duty incumbent over them in this regard; but whoever fulfills his covenant, the one he has made or the covenant of God, by restoring a trust and other such things, and has fear, of God, by refraining from disobedience and performing deeds of obedience, for truly Allah loves the God-fearing: ‘He loves them’ means that He will reward them in the afterlife.

——————————————————

Verse 3:75-76 in different translations:

QARIB:

75) Among the people of the book there are some, who, if you trust him with a “qintar” (98,841.6 lbs.), will return it to you, and there are others, who, if you trust him with a “dinar” will not hand it back unless you stand over him, for they say: ‘as for the common people, they have no recourse to us. ‘They say lies against Allah while they know.

76) Rather, those who keep their promise and fear Allah; Allah loves the cautious.

SHAKIR:

75) And among the followers of the book there are some such that if you entrust one (of them) with a heap of wealth, he shall pay it back to you; and among them there are some such that if you entrust one (of them) with a “dinar” he shall not pay it back to you except so long as you remain firm in demanding it; this is because they say: there is not upon us in the matter of the unlearned people any way (to reproach); and they tell a lie against Allah while they know

76) Yea, whoever fulfills his promise and guards (against evil) — then surely Allah loves those who guard (against evil)

PICKTHAL:

75) Among the people of the scripture there is he who, if thou trust him with a weight of treasure, will return it to thee. And among them there is he who, if thou trust him with a piece of gold, will not return it to thee unless thou keep standing over him. That is because they say: we have no duty to the gentiles. They speak a lie concerning Allah knowingly.

76) Nay, but (the chosen of Allah is) he who fulfilleth his pledge and wardeth off (evil); for lo! Allah loveth those who ward off (evil).

YUSUFALI:

75) among the people of the book are some who, if entrusted with a hoard of gold, will (readily) pay it back; others, who, if entrusted with a single silver coin, will not repay it unless thou constantly stoodest demanding, because, they say, “there is no call on us (to keep faith) with these ignorant (pagans).” but they tell a lie against Allah, and (well) they know it.

76) Nay – those that keep their plighted faith and act aright,-verily Allah loves those who act aright.
