But unfortunately, modern life that it only applies to worldly affairs only. As for matters of religion, some Muslims, this time it is still very primitive. They still embrace a religion and beliefs in precisely the same beliefs jaahiliyyah people who lived hundreds of years ago. Among the beliefs jaahiliyyah that they follow and they still maintain to this day is the belief that certain inanimate objects have the strength and supernatural powers, so that could be used as a talisman.

Trust in amulets

Most people we still maintain the trust of inanimate objects. They assume that certain inanimate objects have the power, supernatural power, or privilege which is very strong, that could be used as amulets, weapons, or the other. In fact, this belief is derived from superstition, delusion, and hallucinations alone.

Beliefs like this are still ingrained in most of the Muslims in our country. Of course we are not familiar with the term “agate”, which some people have a supernatural power or a certain supernatural power that can be worn as amulets or magic weapons. In fact we find the dealers who sell amulets this model in certain areas. Or the belief that some people like a royal heritage heirloom kris, spears, or train the king has a mystical power that can provide supernatural protection to the owner.

This is the reality of our society. In the midst of modernization sparkling life of this world, there are people who are dependent on inanimate objects (read: fetish) and ingrained in his life. To the extent that when someone’s trying to straighten out his conviction, he would be shocked and stunned by the “new understanding” which contrary to what he believed so far.

According to Shari’a Law talisman

Ironically, in addition to trust fetish, they also claim to embrace the teachings of Islam. Though the noble teachings of Islam, which is sourced from the Qur’an and Sunnah has been so clearly explained to his people about the prohibition to use talismans.

Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam had clearly pronounced it as one form of kesyirikan, the greatest sin in the sight of Allah Ta’ala. Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam said, “Anyone who hung amulets, then indeed he has committed shirk.” [1]

Hence, the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam ordered his companions to cut the amulets that hung around the neck of cattle. Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam said to his companions, “Do not necklace made of rope (amulet) is left hanging on the neck of a camel, but should be cut.” [2]

In another occasion, the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam ugliness even pray for those who wear talismans. Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam said, “Those who depend amulet, may Allah does not grant the goal he wants. And those who rely wada’ah (a type of talisman), may Allah not make himself calm. “[3]

Wearing amulets Legal Details

The arguments in the above-and many more other propositions that really confirms that wearing amulets including kesyirikan form. The scholars then give details about the legal use of this talisman. Shaykh Muhammad bin Salih Al-’Utsaimin rahimahullah said, “Wearing amulets and the like, if people who use it believe that the amulet was influential on its own without (taqdir) Allah, then he is doing shirk akbar rububiyyah in monotheism. Because he believes that there is a creator besides Allah Ta’ala. If the wearer only amulets believed that as the cause, not effect by itself, then he is doing shirk ashghar. Because he has to believe something as a cause (means), but not the cause. So he has been associating partners with God in deciding something as a cause, but God does not make something as a cause. “[4]

Look in the case of this amulet. Any intelligent person would know that of course no connection between the hang amulets on the corner of the house so secure from thieves and robbers. Or between hang amulets on the neck to avoid distress. She hung herself and her business to something that in essence is not to cause any effect. Even save himself too, talismans that would not be able. Therefore, the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam preach about the dissolution of Allaah help for people who wear talismans. Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam said, “Anyone who hang something, then he will hang the thing.” [5]

“Evidence, Prophet Moses was Wearing amulets!”

Unfortunately, despite clear arguments from the Quran and the Sunnah of kesyirikan use of amulets, talismans worshipers that postulate (more precisely: argue) with a stick of Prophet Moses’ alaihis salaam who have supernatural powers that can be used to divide seas . As mentioned in the word of Allah, the Exalted, which means, “Then We inspired Moses, ‘Strike the sea with thy rod!” The sea was split, and each hemisphere as a big mountain. “(Surat ash-Syu’ara [26 ]: 63)

So we tell them, “Do the worshipers of amulets was ordered by Allah Ta’ala to wear them as amulets, talismans Allaah commanded Moses to use his wand?” And if they answered “Yes”, meaning they have been rejected so many propositions that very clearly Shari’ah prohibits the use of amulets.

However, if they answered “No”, it means that their analogy on the use of amulets with a rod of Moses is clearly a false analogy and a big mistake, because both are very much different conditions. Therefore, under the pretext of fetish worshipers are essentially just a pretext and subterfuge arguments are used to counter the arguments that have been set by the shari’ah.

So their claim that force is in amulet comes from Allah, the Exalted Prophet Moses-as-a stick so it does not matter for us to use it, is to claim falsely in the name of Allah, the Exalted. Because the amulet-amulet are inanimate objects that do not have the strength and magic as they imagined all this. If that’s true amulet has the power, then it is not from Allah Ta’ala. However, from the devil who revered and worshiped by the makers and users of amulet that, as the reciprocal of worship that man did to the devil. [6]

Confidence As It Has Been Removed by the Prophet

Trust superstition of fetish-which originated from ancient jaahiliyyah society-in fact have been removed with the coming of Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam. Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam said when he berkhutbah on Farewell Pilgrimage’, ‘You know, the whole case jaahiliyyah buried under the soles of my feet. “[7]

An-Nawawi rahimahullah said, “The perkatan he sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam,’ (Buried) under the soles of my feet ‘, (this) is a sign of deleting the case.” [8]

Thus, the characteristics jaahiliyyah has been removed by the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam, was replaced by his teachings that pivot on the doctrine of monotheism. That is worship by purifying obedience only to God Almighty, just ask for help and protection to Allaah alone, and no partner for Him, Essence of the All-mighty, all-power over all seuatu. Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam said to Ibn’ Abbas radi ‘anhuma, “If you ask, ask Allah. And if you ask for help, ask for help to God. “[9] May Allah save us from sin kesyirikan.

History shows us as in Europe and around the world the woman was despised, he was not giving any importance to scholars and philosophers argued about it, if he has a soul or not, and if you have soul would it be human or animal ? and assuming that if you have a human soul, then his status as the man, what is the position of slaves, or slightly higher than them?

In other civilizations like the Roman Empire covered nearly ten centuries, years 500 BC to 476 AD, the woman was in a permanent guardianship of her father or her husband, she could not without the aid or consent guardian before you choose your future husband or marriage, could not dispose of their property, test or engage in any activity.

This situation of women continued for a long time without there being any practical change, until about 1900, a woman had hardly any right, the worst catastrophe that has affected women, came with the Industrial Revolution, they were exploited because as workers cheaper than men.

Major achievements in the emancipation of women was the law of 1882, through which decreed that henceforth the women of Britain would have the unprecedented privilege of keeping the money they earned.

In our times we see women, meaning through thousands of scams and fraud by auditory, visual, psychological, sensory, aesthetic, artistic and banal existence used to persuade consumers to buy unnecessary products, tarnishing his honor and dignity. We like naked in calendars, magazines, beauty pageants, billboards, on television and in brothels in general. Women within the current social environment, has fallen into disrespect that he was only looking from a material standpoint, we see a person invited a friend home and this at the earliest opportunity disrespectful to her daughters, his wife or his mother.

WOMEN AND THEIR VALUES IN ISLAM

Some people who do not know the reality of Islam, or that we know and then intentionally try to hide just enough torque to divert people’s knowledge of Islam, they say that Islam is the enemy of women, which degrades the dignity and humiliates her pride, and leaves even closer to the state level purely animal, which is only a sensual pleasure for men and a tool to generate, in such a way that women are in a position inferior to men and dominated by him. There is nothing but false and unrealistic that this statement, which says it totally ignores the Islamic rules. Almighty God in Islam for more than 14 centuries, through the Holy Quran states the equality of men and women in life, honor, dignity and society in general, respect the property of both (men and women) God tells us that the assets of all persons are sacred and therefore forbidden impair directly or indirectly, all these rights are common to men and women without distinction.

In the Quran, God Almighty tells us that equality between men and women, not only because we ordered in a clear manner, but also because in many Ayas God relates to both women and men in their rights and obligations without distinction.

Let the Sura 33, Aya 35: “God has prepared forgiveness and great reward for Muslims and Muslim believers and believers, the faithful and devout, sincere and honest, patient and patient, humble and the humble, and those who give alms, and those who fast, the chaste and castes, and those who remember God much. ” Also in the Quran God devoted an entire chapter (Sura) the number 4, giving the name “The Women.” It would take volumes to analyze all the benefits and rights that God has given women in Islam for more than 14 centuries and are written in the Quran and Hadith of the Prophet peace and blessings of Allah be with him.

MARRIAGE

It is important to note that the woman before the revelation of the Quran, he had the right to choose her future husband, her parents were those who chose and she should accept and not to your liking, but since the revelation of Holy Quran (1.413 years ago.) The woman is one who chooses or rejects the man that wants to be your home (this right was won by women in other societies long after).

Islam considers marriage a very serious commitment, so the couple should strive for an understanding partner and overall stability is not allowed in Islam marriage test, fixed term, the Prophet (peace and blessings of God be always with him) said condemning the men and women who have frequently changing spouse, couples who enjoy for a while, and then exchange it for another, then a third and so on. It is also extremely serious and reprehensible in the eyes of God and men, adultery or fornication, so the Muslim never done such an act and devotes his life to his home and his wife, always remembering the consequences of this act brings the family disintegration, venereal disease, immorality and crime.

FAMILY LIFE

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) came to say that the best Muslim is one who behaves best with your family, and that the greatest and most blessed joy in life is in a good and upright wife , so the Muslim is dedicated to his wife and follow the instructions of the Holy Quran and the Sunnah of the Prophet (peace and blessings of God be upon him) ordered the kindness with his wife, is a must harmonize with your husband wife in an equitable and friendly, fulfilling the divine mandate, is the entire responsibility for the maintenance of women to be complied happily without reproach, insult or condescension. This maintenance involves giving shelter, clothe, feed, give attention and general welfare according to their means and lifestyle.

Moreover, the Muslim should treat his wife with justice, respect their feelings, make it the object of kindness and consideration. Women should not receive any animosity by her husband, nor be subject to anxieties and uncertainties. The Muslim also remembers the last sermon of the Prophet (peace and blessings of God be always with him) when the pilgrimage said among other things: “You! You have rights to your wife and your wife have right over you. Treat your wife with love and kindness. It is true the you have taken as a trust from God and have made lawful by the word of God. Always be faithful to the mandate entrusted to you and avoid sins. “

DIVORCE

In addition to the previous brief, the meaning of marriage in Islam, we emphasize that it is solemn, sacred, in which God intervenes as the first witness and first hand, is executed in its name, in obedience to God and according with their mandates. Therefore there is a simple civil or commercial contract which assesses material benefits and obligations conflicting with each other.

A Muslim from the time of the house, known to be a permanent and continuous harmony not only between men and women, but also between them and God. Divorce is the last resort for the couple to go if there are serious obstacles that prevent reconciliation the Prophet (peace and blessings of God be upon him), described as the most damning thing of all legitimate means God’s eyes. To get to divorce the man and woman must meet the following steps:

1. The two parties concerned should try to resolve their disputes with each other, treating the subject in the best way.

2. If they fail, should be responsible two referees, one of the husband’s family and another family of a wife who will try to make peace between them and settle their differences, if that fails is the 3rd. step.

3. Applies for a divorce. Islamic law requires to be accepted by both parties, granted with dignity and with due respect.

The more you expose a child to a community that looks and professes the religion, the easier it is for that child understand and accept the religion and spiritualism throughout his life. There is evidence that children who grow up in a spiritual environment most likely to establish good relationships with their parents (Nursi, 2002). Islam teaches that children are gifts from God, the Compassionate and Generous. We should love them and care for them with perfect compassion and tenderness to ensure their healthy growth.

The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of God be upon him), who was referred by his wife Aisa as a “Living Quran” is a prime example to understand the Islamic concept of how to teach the spirituality of children. As in other aspects of his life, Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) served here as an example of how to raise our children.

In many of his teachings, the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) emphasized the importance of showing kindness and compassion to children. Because children are weak and helpless, their spirits grow safe and healthy when they come to know and experience for themselves to their Creator and Almighty Merciful. Through trust in God and complete surrender to His guidance, children will be able to face fears and challenges throughout his life.

A child needs to feel safe, and the best way to give this feeling is to teach that God is Most Merciful and the Most Merciful and that He protects you from all evil. A child, weak and needy, can feel secure in life only through this belief. In addition, teaching a child to be grateful for everything he has and get is another important aspect of proper spiritual development. A child should be conscious of everything that is given is ultimately comes from God. Thus, a child will become a grateful and appreciative person.

Be gracious and affectionate with children has a special place in the teachings (peace and blessings be upon him) the Prophet Muhammad. To emphasize the importance of mercy in the spiritual development of children, the Prophet said, “Whoever is not merciful to their children is not one of us [Muslim].” So the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) taught that children should approach with piety, love, respect and trust, and particularly Islamic teachings emphasize compassion and love. Aisa his wife gave the following example:

One day a Bedouin came to the Prophet Muhammad and said, “You besáis children but we do not kiss as our traditions. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “What I can do for you if God has stripped of compassion?” (Sahih al-Bukhari, “Adab,” 18; Muslim, “Fadaa’il” , 64)

Abu Huraira reported:

One day the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) was in Bani Qainuqa Bazaar. She left the market and myself. He returned to the tent of Fatima and asked: “Is the small (Hasan) there?” Then he said: “Call Hasan.” Not much time had passed when (Hasan) came running with a beaded necklace placed around the neck. The Messenger of God spread his arms and so did Hasan. The Messenger of God embraced him and said, ‘Oh God, I love you, please love him and loves those who love him “from the Messenger of God said that nothing and no one has been more dear to me that Hasan. (Bukhari, “Libas” 58:5545)

It is important to mention, however, that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) was biased in its approach to the education of children. He was compassionate and loving towards children, but he also acted with resolution in his teaching. Fethullah Gülen notes the following of Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him):

The Messenger was completely balanced by educating their children. The much loved them and their grandchildren and gave them love. However, never let his love abused. None of them deliberately tried to do anything wrong. If they commit an inadvertent error, the Messenger’s protection prevented them to keep away from the straight path. He did so by protecting them with love and an aura of dignity. For example, Hasan and Husayn once tried to eat a date had been given for distribution among the poor as alms. The Messenger immediately took it from his hand and said: “It is forbidden to take anything given as alms.” To educate established a very important principle of education when they were young to be sensitive about forbidden things. (M. Fethullah Gulen, the Messenger of God, Muhammad, 2005, pág.182)

He never made any distinction between their sons and daughters, saying “What a beautiful little girl is a compassionate, helpful, peaceful, blessed, and full of motherly feelings.” The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) did not limit their love and devotion and was gracious and kind to children of different religions. He taught Muslims to treat their neighbors of different faiths and their closest relatives. For example, he visited the children of a Jewish neighbor when he was ill.

The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of God be upon him) gave special importance to play with the children. Encouraged parents to play with their children, and said that anyone who had small children in their care should behave like a child and play with them in turn. Once, the Prophet and some of his students were invited to dinner. Along the way, they found her grandson Husayn, who was a young boy, who was playing with some other children. When the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) saw the children, came forward and extended his arms to embrace, and children started running game around him. The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) pursued Husayn to grab to participate in their game. When I grabbed Husayn, he put his hand under his chin and one hand behind his neck and kissed him.

Children are keen observers, look around carefully, and his spiritual life is under the influence of his surroundings. It is crucial to realize that the closest relatives at home, the whole family, the school environment, and friends, all alike, can influence the spiritual development of a child. The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of God be upon him) said that every child is born endowed with a capacity of close to God, but its environment may make him or let it take another path away from l.

Islam: rezandoTodo child that surrounds a child has an effect on your soul. Therefore it is necessary that the environment that the child is exposed should be chosen with care. Islamic scholars declare that the imperfections that a child can absorb harmful environments leave a black spot in his heart. For example, is the spiritual duty of all parents protect their children from indecent images or sounds, and people with immoral thoughts, feelings, immoral and sinful eyes. With this in mind, the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said that the first words a child should have to be heard “La ilaha illallah” (There is no deity but God). The entire spiritual knowledge of a child will be based on these first words.

According to Islam, spirituality comes into life with daily religious practice. Prayer (salat) is one of the five main pillars of Islam. The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Prayer is the pillar that supports religion.” Moreover, the Prophet also declared that a person experiences the closest proximity to God prostrating in prayer. Thus, we understand that the highest level of spirituality is experienced through prayer. Therefore, the sentence in absolute concentration is important. To achieve this concentration, most people prefer quiet environments.

Although the presence of children in places of worship can do to lose concentration and affect the gathering of the faithful, the teachings of Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) clearly indicate that he did not leave children places of worship. It is reported that, even when he led the prayer in congregation, insisted that children leave the place of worship. The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) stood by its decision to the extent that the children could go through his legs playing while completing the sentence. Sometimes the children playing jumped on his back while he was prostrate. In one case, a boy got on his back while he was lying, and though he was leading the prayer, he remained in that position until the child had fallen.

The Prophet also allowed the babies were present in places of worship. Shortened the prayers for the mothers were able to meet the needs of their babies. The Prophet said: “When I start the prayer, I have the intention to extend it, but hearing the cries of a child, as I do not like to worry about the child’s mother, interrupting the prayer.”

In some cases, he with his arms around the children to keep them in places of worship while he prayed. Embraced them as he stood and carefully placed his hand while prostrating. In this case, the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) made no distinction between boys and girls. It is reported that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of God be upon him) came to the mosque carrying his granddaughter Umama, and on shoulders. The Prophet Muhammad led the prayer to keep it on his shoulders. The left her side and took her bow again to sit on his shoulders and continued to do until after the prayer.

Neither the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) tried to remove children from the congregation while preaching at the mosque. One of his students said: “I saw our Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to give a sermon. His grandson Hasan sat on his lap. During his speech, occasionally bent and kissed the child, saying: “I love you ‘.”

The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) not only allowed children to enter the mosque, but also assigned a special place for them to participate in prayers. Keep children close for daily prayers is very important, because the child will benefit from the spiritual environment. We learn from these lessons that instead of making children leave the places of worship, we should try to concentrate during prayer in the presence of children.

The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is a perfect example of how humans can ascend to the spiritual stations. Following his example, Muslims are required to be transparent with their thoughts. That is, a Muslim should not think one way and act in a different, and it is important to be consistent with the children. The presence of an inconsistency between what adults say and do can cause deep wounds in the spirituality of a child.

For example, a person may be spiritually healthy in every way, but if he is a miser, it could contaminate your perfect spirit. Therefore, it is important to teach a child to share and have compassion for the needy and unfortunate. The suggested mode of teaching is done through an example: if the parents are merciful to the needy and share their wealth with them, a boy sure to capture the importance of this behavior.

If parents want their child to read as they have to pray in the presence of children in the most sincere and inspiring ways. See their parents in a state of blissful joy during a devout prayer can open the soul of a child and can ask questions and learn about prayer that are praying. Explain the spiritual pleasures of prayers and rituals at that time without any difficulty penetrate the depths of the soul of the child. Trying to explain the experience of a spiritually satisfying ritual that never would have experienced a similar effect on the child’s inner world.

We conclude from these verses that the prophet has to be sent by God should have the following three characteristics:

1) He will be like Moses.

2) He will come from the brothers of the Israelites, ie the Ishmaelites.

3) That God will put His words into the mouth of this prophet and that he will declare what God commands him.

Consider the three further features:
1) A prophet like unto Moses

There were hardly any two prophets who were so much alike as Moses and Muhammad. Both were given a comprehensive law and code of life. Both encountered their enemies and were victorious in miraculous ways. Both were accepted as prophets and statesmen.

Both migrated following conspiracies to assassinate them. Analogies between Moses and Jesus overlook not only the aforementioned similarities but other crucial contemplate.

These include the natural birth, family life and death of Moses and Muhammad but not of Jesus. Moreover Jesus was regarded by his followers as the Son of God and not exclusively as a prophet of God, as Moses and Muhammad were and as Muslims believe Jesus was. So, this prophecy refers to the Prophet Muhammad, not Jesus, because Muhammad is like Moses than Jesus, in relation to the above points.
Also, one notices from the Gospel of John that the Jews were waiting for the fulfillment of three distinct prophecies. The first was the coming of Christ. The second was the coming of Elijah. The third was the coming of the Prophet.

This is obvious from the three questions were posed to John the Baptist: “… The Jews of Jerusalem sent priests and Levites John to ask him,” Who are you? “. John agree to tell and not deny it. He said: “I am not the Christ.” They said, “Then who are you,” Elijah? “He replied:” I am not Elijah. “

He said: “Are you the Prophet?”. Answered “No” (John 1:19-21) If we have a Bible we find references in the footnotes to the Prophet’s words in John 1:21, referring to the prophecy of Deuteronomy 18:15 and 18:18.2 We conclude from this that the prophecy of Deuteronomy 18:18 does not refer to Jesus but to Muhammad.
2) Of the “brothers” of the Israelites:

Abraham had two sons, Ishmael and Isaac (Genesis 21). Ishmael became the father of the Arab nation, and Isaac became the father of the Jewish nation. The prophet spoken of in Deuteronomy does not come from among the Jews themselves, but from among their brothers, ie the Ishmaelites. Muhammad, a descendant of Ishmael, is indeed this prophet.

Also, Isaiah 42:1-13 speaks of the servant of God, His “Servant” and “Chosen” who will bring a law. “Do not falter or be discouraged till he establishes justice on earth, and his law expect the costs” (Isaiah 42:4 KJV).

Verse 11, connects that awaited one with the descendants of Kedar. Who is Cedar? According to Genesis 25:13, Kedar was the second son of Ishmael, the ancestor of the Prophet Muhammad.
3) God put His words in the mouth of the prophet:

The words of God (the Quran) were truly put into Muhammad’s mouth. God sent the Angel Gabriel to teach Muhammad the exact words of God (the Quran) and ordered him to dictate to people as he heard them. Words are not, therefore, yours.

They did not come of their own thoughts, but were put into his mouth by the angel. During the life of Muhammad, and under his supervision, these words were memorized and written by their peers.

Also, this prophecy in Deuteronomy mentioned that this prophet will speak the words of God in the name of God. If we look to the Holy Qur’an, we find that all its chapters, except Chapter 9, are preceded or begin with the phrase, “In the name of God the Merciful, the Compassionate.”

Another indication (other than the prophecy in Deuteronomy) is that Isaiah ties the messenger connected with Kedar with a new song (a scripture in a new language) to be sung to the Lord (Isaiah 42:10-11). This is mentioned clearly in the prophecy of Isaiah: “and another tongue, will speak to this people” (Isaiah 28:11 KJV).

Another related point is that the Quran was revealed in different places and over a span of 23 years.

It is interesting to compare this with Isaiah 28 which speaks about the same thing, “For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, a little there, a little there.” (Isaiah 28:10 RVR 1960).

Note that God said in the previous verse to the prophecy in Deuteronomy 18:18, “And whoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it.” (Deuteronomy 18:19 RVR 1960). This means that anyone who believes the Bible must believe in what this prophet says, and this prophet is Muhammad.

Dear brothers and sisters, the subject of today’s khutbah, is related to the earthquake that affected us a few days ago:

Almost a week ago we faced a great tragedy, in which Allah warned us of something even greater and more terrible still. The earthquake occurred early Saturday was a warning from Allah for all His servants open your eyes and stay tuned for that day, Pay Day, the Day of the Surrender Account, the Day of Regret, the Day of Resurrection The Day when the Trumpet will be blown on the Day of Meeting, the day when the man flee from his brother, his mother and father, his wife and their children. That day everyone will be concerned only about himself.

This earthquake was only a glimpse of Qiyamah Day. The strong shaking of the earth, large ocean waves, noise, screams, were a just a foretaste of Qiyamah. This powerful experience that we lived, was a day intended especially for the believers in Allah, to reflect and to change our lives. All these disasters, be they earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, etc. are warnings from Allah to His servants, so that we are aware of that day in which we stand before our Creator.

So we must be very grateful and be happy that Allah has given us another day with faith, with magnets, to take advantage of every moment, we open our eyes and live our lives to please Allah. Let us be grateful to Allah, not only with words, if not also with actions. Allah says: “If ye are grateful, I will give you even more” (Surah Ibrahim [14], ayah 7).

Almighty Allah describes the scene in Qiyamah Quran: “O mankind! Fear your Lord. Verily, the earthquake will come when the Hour (of Judgement) will be something tremendous. The day arrives, every nursing mother will abandon her baby, every pregnant aborted (by the terror of that day), and you’ll see men as drunk, but not be drunk but suffer the severe punishment of Allah “(Surah Al Hajj [ 22], Ayat 1 and 2), and the Almighty also says: “When the earth is shaken by his own trembling. And when the earth expel his weight in his breast. And the man says: What about it? That day will know what because your Lord will inspire you. That day the men will come in groups to see their works, And that has made the weight of a blade of good shall see it, and that has made the weight of a blade of evil shall see it “(Surah Az-Zalzalah [ 99]).

These disasters such as earthquakes or floods are not new. Allah sent these disasters on several previous nations, to warn and to make them understand Who is God and Who is the real driver of this universe. For example, the history of the nation of Prophet Nuh (‘alaihis Salaam) and how they were drowned by the flood. Thamud the nation was hit by a cry and through icy and stormy winds. There is also an example of how the earth swallowed Qarun with their treasures and worldly goods. And as the sea swallowed Fira’ûn. Allah explains this in the Quran: “Every one will punish them for their faults. A few will send a wind, others picked up the cry, others made it to swallow the earth and others drowned. Allah did not wrong them in any way but were themselves the unjust “(Surah Al ‘Ankabût [29], Ayah 40). Through these events, God manifests His power, His greatness, His Majesty, and shows the weakness and vulnerability of human beings.

When these calamities and disasters take place, to find the reason and cause, immediately seek answers in science and we all came to the conclusion that due to natural sources or “mother nature”, but as we know, is Allah only, the Almighty, the King of kings, the Creator of all, the controller of everything. It is by His order of occurrence of earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, etc.

These catastrophes happen to wake us, and to prepare and turn to Allah. Allah says in the Quran: “And the more punishment they will test the immediate punishment if they could turn back” (Surah As-Sajdah [32], ayah 21) and also says: “When I forgot what they had pointed out, we open the doors of all things, and they were happy with what we had been, suddenly grabbed them and were desperate “(Surah Al An’aam [6], Ayah 44).

Anas Ibn Malik (radiAllahu ‘anhu) narrated: “Once I went with someone else where’ Aishah (radiAllahu ‘anha), my companion said:” O Mother of the Believers Explain the reason for the occurrence of earthquakes. ” She replied: “When people start saying that adultery is permissible, and when taken in excess alcohol and music will prevail. Allah is angry at the heavens and the earth says “Shake it!. If they repent and turn away from what they were doing, let them. But if they repent not, destroy them. ” The man asked: “Is it a punishment for them?”. ‘Aishah (radiAllahu’ anha) said: “It will be a council and a mercy for believers and punishment and wrath upon the unbelievers.”

The frequent occurrence of earthquakes is also a sign of Qiyamah. In these times we must also exercise our patience, because everyone, no matter how it was affected by this disaster. Whether physical, mental or spiritual or worldly suffering losses. Exercising patience we approach Allah, and that all conditions come from Allah.

In relation to the patient, Allah says: “And rest assured that we will test you with fear, hunger, loss of wealth, people and fruit. But give glad tidings to the patient. Those that when something terrible happens to them say: “We are Allah and to Him we return” Blessings of your Lord and mercy will be poured over them. Are those who are guided. “(Surah Al Baqarah [2], Ayat 155 to 157).

Yahia Abu Suhaib (radiAllahu ‘anhu) narrated that the Prophet Muhammad (sallallaahu’ alaihi wa sallam) said: “It is admirable the case of the believer! Well, all matter contains a right for him and this does not happen other than Christian. Well, if it comes easily and is grateful to Allah, there is a good for him. And if you have patience in adversity, get a good for him. ” In another Hadith it is narrated from Abu Sa’id and Abu Hurairah (radiAllahu ‘Anhumas) that Rasulullah (sallallaahu’ alaihi wa sallam) said: “Whatever the misfortune that happened to a Muslim: tiredness, sickness, sadness, hurt, grief, sorrow or even a thorn that is nailed, so that Allah would purify their faults. “

Right now what we do as believers to draw Rahmah, the Mercy of Allah? If we study the life of Prophet Muhammad (sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) and the Sahabah (radiAllahu’ anhum) we see that when they touched the difficulties they asked for the Mercy of Allah by going all the way to their Lord, giving Al Salah, repentance , asking for forgiveness, constantly raising and giving charity appeals. These are values that are within reach of every one of us, making it very easy for us to imitate the behavior of those about whom Allah said in the Quran to be pleased with them. In addition to this, we must be steadfast in instilling in our lives and our families the certainty and confidence in Allah and good conduct and decency.

We must also remember that God expects us not forget the victims of the earthquake, whether Muslim or not, are nonetheless human beings who are suffering. Allah says in the Quran: “You are the best community that has emerged in the good of men. Enjoin what is recognized, impedís dishonor and you believe in Allah “(Surah Ali ‘Imran [3], ayah 110). We ask Allah to give us the possibility, if only to visit, to bring something to comfort them, because they are also part of the ummah of Muhammad (sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam), and we have compassion for them because Rasulullah (Sallallahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said: “Have mercy on those who are on earth. Thus, those who are in heaven have mercy on you. “

Whatever happens, we should not lose hope in the Mercy of Allah Ta’ala. Allah loves that we pray, we turn to him, and Allah is Most Forgiving, the doors of Allah is always open. Allah says in the Quran: “Say: My servants that I have transgressed against yourselves, do not despair of the mercy of Allah is true that Allah forgives all sins, for He is the Forgiving, the Merciful” ( Surah Az-Zumar [39], Ayah 53). Said the Prophet Muhammad (sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) “Whoever it is customary to ask forgiveness, Allah seeks a way out of trouble for every situation, a comfort for every sorrow, and provisioned from where you least expect it.”

We thank Allah for giving us an opportunity to continue with life and health, for deposit in the heart of our brothers and sisters around the world, concern and pain to learn that his brothers and sisters in Chile may be suffering. We thank them their prayers, greetings, your help, your concern, your messages of support and sympathy. And thank God for teaching us through His Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) that: “The example of believers in their mutual love, tenderness and collaboration is how the human body, which if it hurts a body, resents the rest of the body through the mouth and insomnia. “

Brothers and sisters, we pray to Allah to forgive us, accept our repentance, lift His punishment, let us go completely to Him, accept our prayers and those who suffer most. We pray also for alleviating the pain of those who mourn lost lives, homes. Let us ask the Most Merciful that provides sustenance to the hungry, thirsty and cold. Give Your comfort those who suffer from anxiety and fear of facing the Force and Power of Allah. We give everyone the capacity and ability to extend our hand who need to be raised. And especially we pray to Allah, the Almighty, to give His Divine Guidance to many more people and allow them to get closer to Allah and place in their hearts the light of Your Guide to Islam by falling completely. Amin.

“Prophet will arise from among their brethren, like unto thee, and put words in his mouth, and he will tell them everything I command him.

If anyone does not listen to my words which he shall speak in my name, I would require it “(Deuteronomio18 :18-19)

3:84 In the Holy Qur’an we read that Jesus (p and b) is in a prophetic succession, and the text of the Bible we read the Old Testament (OT) of Deuteronomy (Deut.) 18:18-19

We read that God will raise up a prophet from the midst of Israel, and since Moses (p and b) we see the prophets that God was raised to preach the true monotheism. Then we see that this passage is cited in another context in the book of Acts of the Apostles at where people keep talking about raising a prophet, and also a prophetic succession,

Well this prophet that God would raise, is said to be Jesus (p and b). It says in Acts that is a covenant that God made. If God made with mankind to make known its message. But the point I want to discuss in this paper is to see Jesus (p and b) as the prophet of God.

Why it seems so important to talk about this issue?,

Because the Quran and presents Jesus (p and b), and this is how God presented in the Bible. In the Gospel of Luke chapter 7 in the beginning of this we see that Jesus (p and b) makes a miracle to resurrect a person, and in verse 16, we see that all were afraid, and glorified God and said “A great prophet risen up among us “…

Look at this passage carefully. After the resurrection, people do not glorify Jesus (p and b) but Allah, Allah (swt), and saw Jesus (p and b) as a prophet. In the Gospel of John chapter 6 we see that after a few miracles of Allah (swt), people read:

“This is indeed the prophet who has come into the world.” Too many passages where we read these things about Jesus (p and b), but more curious or the great deception is that those who had the understanding darkened, associated prophetic of Jesus (p and b) to be equal with God, when we can see in all the Bible that many prophets of God did miracles, the prophet Mohammad (p and b), also based his prophetic life miracles with the permission of Allah (swt).

Miracles do not glorify that makes them but Allah (. Swt) because they are to confirm the message and to confirm the messenger.

The prophetic ministry of Jesus (p and b) no different from the character of which met the prophets of the Old Testament. Always, Allah (swt), spoke through the prophets. But those who wanted to change the truth of Allah (swt), recognize that since ancient times God spoke through prophets or spokesmen, but wrong to say that God now speaks in the person of Jesus (p and b) there are worshiping the messenger Allah (swt), there are doing as idolaters, changing the glory of God and put it on who comes to bring his message and miracles the glory of Allah (swt).

In every dispensation the prophet is a messenger that Allah (swt) sent to his people: establish the truth and to encourage humanity in times of apostasy and idolatry turn to Allah (swt) the true monotheism.

Jesus (p and b) did not differ from this action as a prophet, Jesus (p and b) speaking the message of Allah (swt), but not God.

Now in general terms we see that is a prophet in the Bible:

“He who speaks in the name of God: cf Exo 4:15, 7:1

“God promises Israel prophets, Deut. 18:14-22 “…

“- The office of the prophets was to teach, admonish, to console the people, Isa. 6:8-13 Jer. 1:4-19; “….

“- Sometimes they were commanded to preach to the people with their way of life: Jer 16:1-21;
Eze. 4:1-5, 17, 12:3, 21:6, Hosea 1:2;

and sometimes wore a special habit: 2 Kings. 1:8, Zech 13:4
(Cf Mat.3: 4) “

“The prophets had a trade practice to play. It was part of their commission

show the people of God ‘their rebellion and the house of Jacob their sins’ (ISA

58:1, EZE 22:2, 43:10, Mic 3:8).

They were, therefore, pastors and warning the people of God. It was his duty

admonish and reprove, denounce the prevailing sins, admonish the people with the dread of Divine Judgement, and call to repentance.

.
They also brought the message of consolation and forgiveness. a message of comfort and peace

(Isa 40:1-2) “

Definition of the Word Prophet: The Prophet from the Greek word προφήτης

(Prophet), whose etymological meaning is to “speak for” be “spokesman” for another.

Given the above, completed the note, seeing Jesus (p and b) Isa in the Quran:

‘Isa, son of Mary. ” This refers to Jesus (p and b) in the Quran. The first mention of Isa.

In the Quran we read:

“And we reveal to Moses the Book and sent messengers after him and we gave Jesus the son of Mary, clear evidence and strengthened him with the Holy Spirit (the angel Gabriel). Is it that whenever I had a Messenger who did not satisfy your wishes you ensoberbecíais and belied by one, and others matabais? “(Sura 2-87). The third chapter of the Quran is entirely devoted to his grandparents’ Imran (Joaquin), and Ana Maria’s parents, under the title The family of Imran.

The Quran deals with the story of Isa even before birth, and that Islam “placed” Jesus (p and b) at an intermediate point between Judaism that identifies with a false Messiah and Christianity, which considers God made flesh.

If the third chapter of the Quran describes the birth of Mary, Mother of Jesus (p and b) as part of the divine plan to prepare for the arrival of the prophet Isaiah, chapter 19 is devoted entirely to his person and the birth of Jesus (p and b) “She was pregnant and she retired with him to a distant place … And the pains of childbirth drove her to the trunk of the tree. She said: ‘I wish I had died and I had completely forgotten this before. ” But underneath it he called to him: ‘Do not worry! Your Lord has laid at your feet a stream. And shake towards thyself the trunk of the palm, and it will drop on you fresh ripe dates! So eat, drink and be still! And if you saw any mortal, say: I have vowed a fast to the Merciful. Do not speak thus to any man today. ” Returned with him (Jesus) to the people taking it in her arms, and they said, ‘Mary, you’ve probably done something suspicious. Sister of Aaron, thy father was not a wicked man nor was thy mother a harlot. ” She (Mary) pointed to the child, but they said: ‘How can we talk to one who is in the cradle a child? “He said,’ I am the servant of God: God has given me the Scripture and I has made a prophet. Has blessed me wherever I am and I am commanded to do the prayer and give zakat (charity or alms) while alive. Be kind to my mother. Has not made me arrogant or miserable. Peace be with me the day I was born, the day I die and the day I shall be raised to life ‘. ” (19:22 21)

The above snippet is essential to understand the rift between Islam and Christianity. For us Muslims to Jesus (p and b) never called himself Son of God, much less God incarnate. The Qur’an says in Surah of Mary: “They said: ‘The Merciful has taken a son.” Certainly, you have uttered a terrible blasphemy. The heavens almost tear therefore the earth to open and the mountains fall in ruins, because they have been attributed to the Merciful a son. No need for the Merciful has a child and no one in heaven or on earth that does not come to the Merciful but as His servant. ” (19:88 91.)
