The Furqan

Surah Al-A'la
Recently, I heard the mosque reciting the Fajr prayer. & I clearly overheard these verses:

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
[إن هذا لفي الصحف الأولى [18] صحف إبراهيم وموسى [19
Indeed, this is in the former scriptures.
The scriptures of Abraham and Moses.
[Holy Quran 87:18-19]

Wow. How is it that I, who can't speak much arabic, actually recognize these verses. سنقرئك فلا تنسى الا ماشاء الله [Q87:6-7] (◠v◠) So I was wondering what surah it was from. Then, I randomly open the Quran. & it's exactly the surah for the verses! Surah Al-A'la (The Most High). The Quran states that Rasulullah ﷺ recited this surah for the two Eid prayers. ماشاء الله

What's more, now I keep randomly opening Surah An-Najm. It also has:

[أم لم ينبأ بما في صحف موسى [36] وإبراهيم الذي وفى [37
Or has he not been informed of what was in the scriptures of Moses.
And (of) Abraham, who fulfilled (his obligations). [Holy Quran 53:36-37]

The scriptures of Abraham & Moses. It shares the same message as the Quran. [QA Torah] So much so, that the Torah is called the Furqan (الفرقان : separator of right & wrong) - just like the Quran. [Q2:53, Q2:185]

Agreeably, both Abraham & Moses are believed by jews, christians & muslims. But somehow, not Jesus & Muhammad, even though they too deliver the same message. ومصدقا لما بين يدي من التوراة [Q3:50], نزل عليك الكتاب بالحق مصدقا لما بين يديه وأنزل التوراة والإنجيل [Q3:3]

Still, even if the faiths differed, both Abraham & Moses advised that the Hereafter is better and more enduring. That we can have nothing but what we do. & our efforts will be shown to us for recompense.

[39] ألا تزر وازرة وزر أخرى [38] وأن ليس للإنسان إلا ما سعى
[41] وأن سعيه سوف يرى [40] ثم يجزاه الجزاء الأوفى That no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another. And that there is not for man except that for which he strives. And that his effort is going to be seen. Then he will be recompensed for it with the fullest recompense. [Holy Quran 53:38-41]

Abraham preceded both Judaism & Christianity, yet his faith is still purely about surrendering in peace to the One Allah. & this is what defines a muslim. أسلمت لرب العالمين [Q2:131-132]

Ohh isn't nativity plays amusing. (◠v◠)v

Baby hair shaving for muslims (◠v◠)
I'm tempted to give my views on some issues. But it is Ramadhan, and it is the month of restrain. Perhaps this is not the time? Or is it? والله أعلم. Yes, I prefer if I can go to my Hira Cave (قلم qalam) and contemplate fully before saying. So foremostly, I'm sorry if ever. (◠-◠)v

Well ... The news is reporting about teenage pregnancies. And you know, the teaching of birds & bees. If anybody cares (ha ha, yeah I have to say that) - for me - my education is from the Quran & Hadith. Believe it or not, it's there, sweetheart. E.g: the Quran revealed you're from a sperm burst forth. ألم يك نطفة من مني يمنى [Q75:37], أفرأيتم ما تمنون [Q56:58] I can imagine the hilarity of "Mommy, what is semen burst forth." (◠v◠)

The male sperm, female egg, fertilization, fetal development in the womb, birth ... way to the death. The afterlife. It's all stated in the Quran & Hadith. [QA Body | Man]

So yeah. Muslim kids should've known their body.

And when I was a child, my ustazah (teacher) did told us about puberty. It's an age when deeds start to be recorded. The sign is women has menses & men has the dream: وإذا بلغ الأطفال منكم الحلم [Q24:59] ... الحلم is "dream", right? And when you reach that age, you are accountable.


..................................    mitzvah    ..................................

الزاني لا ينكح
إلا زانية أو مشركة
والزانية لا ينكحها
إلا زان أو مشرك
وحرم ذلك على المؤمنين
[Q24:3]

لا يزني الزاني حين
يزني وهو مؤمن
[SB8.81.773]

the light marks
the believer (إيمان)

So yes. The Quran & Hadith do teach the birds & the bees. & the Laws.

We simply abide. Intimacy outside of marriage is wrong, even going near it is wrong. ولا تقربوا الزنا إنه كان فاحشة وساء سبيلا [Q17:32], والذين هم لفروجهم حافظون [Q70:29] Just follow it, simple as that. I read people say abstinence doesn't work - but how do a sperm meets an egg if you abstain? For assault cases - it is a crime - preventing it requires more than education, it needs a strong justice system.

OK. So yeah do I sound like the religious zealot? Of course, muslims do have intimacy. In marriage - full of love, families & blessing. فاظفر بذات الدين [SB7.62.27 | spirit] This is the right way. The wedding, gifts, celebrations. Then when the wife gave birth, her baby will be held by the father. & he will recite the azan & iqamat (call of prayer) to her/his ears. The grandparents will bumble in joyousness, "come everybody I'm giving aqiqah!" & everybody cuts strands of the baby's hair lovingly, the weight of his hair in silver is given to charity. Blessed ... .:(◠v◠):. الحمد لله

Please note
Muslims have laws even in regards to the body. E.g: if one has an intimate discharge, he must bath the whole body (ghusl) before performing the daily prayers. وإن كنتم جنبا فاطهروا [Q5:6], إن الصلاة تنهى عن الفحشاء و المنكر [Q29:45] Thus ever since puberty, even as a teen, there is an envelope of purity - this is faith when its delight enters the hearts بشاشته القلوب and mixes with them completely.

Under Allah's Care, may we be pure just as Prophet Joseph.

Surah An Noor (The Light) which revealed about intimacies - also revealed about light brightening the darkness. Prophet Joseph did fear he'll be among the ignorant if he succumbed. وإلا تصرف عني كيدهن أصب إليهن وأكن من الجاهلين [Q12:33] ❤ the light must conquer the heart

اعوذب لله من الشيطان الرجيم
[2] إذا الشمس كورت [1] وإذا النجوم انكدرت
When the sun is wrapped up. And when the stars fall dispersing.
[Al-Quran 81:1-2]

I hope I understand the Arabic well. So, these verses mean the sun (الشمس) will be wrapped up (كورت) and fall dispersing. Imagine saying that 1,400 years ago - doesn't it sound insane. [Q81:22] But yes, our sun will be wrapped up & fall dispersing. ماشاء الله


The life cycle of a star
Basically, the sun is a star & stars are a ball of fire. The nature of fire is - it soars up. So, after a star is born, its fire soars up. But gravity pulls it down to the core - so in its lifetime, the fiery star exists in a constant battle against gravity. When both forces are equal, the star exists in balance & retains its shape (main sequence star). [photo] But stars exists by burning it's fuel. As it ends its lifetime, it will exhaust its fuel & gravity will win. Gravity will pull the dying star & the star will fall back to its core.

Our sun will share the same fate. If I understand it right, the sun will grow into a red giant, then the dispersing dust & gas will eventually wrap itself - enveloping it as a planetary nebulae - and finally falls to its core as a dwarf. [video | NASA] ماشاء الله

An even more massive star will burst into a supernova [ref] - briefly outshining the entire galaxy. & if it overthrows its neutrons, it will fall to its core so completely it forms a black hole. It's an object so dense that even light cannot escape it's gravity. Which means, if you're there, you cannot escape it's gravity even at the speed of light.

This escape velocity is the speed that you need to throw an object upwards without it falling back because of gravity. In comparison, rockets escape the earth's gravity at ~25,000 mph. [ref]

Learning the reality. I don't know how to ignore it. (^v^)

I seek refuge from errors. Only Allah Knows Best. والله أعلم
