Bizler dünyada kaybettiğimiz anda Allah'ı kazanırız. Dünyanın kapılarının kapandığı yerde cennet kapıları açılır. Bütün peygamberler bu hikmeti kendi hayatlarıyla bize göstermişlerdir; kayıp kazancımız, hiçlik sermayemiz, fakr onurumuzdur. Yaşamak zorunda kaldıkları zorlukların zirveye ulaştığı anda Allah'u Teala nebilerini en büyük ilahi ihsanlarıyla mükafatlandırmıştır. Onların sabrı, tahammülü derecesinde yardımını, himayesini yollamıştır. Hz. Yusuf (as) kuyunun karanlığından kurtulmuş ve Mısır'ın azizi olmuştur. Hz. İbrahim (as) ateşten kurtarılmıştır., o ateş ona bir gül bahçesine dönmüş ve kendisi Allah'ın dostu, halili olma makamı ile şereflendirilmiştir. Hz. Yunus (as) balığın karnından kurtarılmıştır, Hz. İsmail (as) bıçakla kurban edilmekten kurtarılmıştır, Hz. Nuh (as) tufandan selamet bulmuş ve gemisiyle karaya oturmuştur.

Boş arayışlar insan ruhunu yıpratır. İnsanları memnun etmek ve onların sevgi, takdir ve onaylarını almak için uğraşan kişi kendini yorar.

Boş vaktimizi beleş zamanlar olarak görüyor, şimdilik bir ödemede bulunmuyoruz, ama bir gün onun için Allah'ın huzurunda ödemede bulunacağız. Bir bedeli var. Bir gün onun için ödemede bulunacağımızın farkında değiliz. He şey kayda geçiriliyor.

Boys will always be boys,’ he said. ‘The relationship obviously wasn’t meant to be.’ He told me I should trust that the break-up was for the best, even if I couldn’t see that yet. As with every form of suffering, heartache brings with it catharsis, and turns us into better human beings. ‘It is like an iron in the furnace that is beaten into shape,’ he said. These bad experiences were ultimately a good sign because God tests the ones He loves. That might be why He has so few friends,’ he added dryly. His words cheered me up a bit.

Bring no harm to the trees, nor burn them with fire, especially those which are fruitful" - Abu Bak's warfare rules, to his army

Budaya ilmu juga bermakna ilmu dituntut dengan berbagai-bagai cara seperti pembacaan dan pendengaran atau pengalaman. Walaupun Islam menekankan kebolehan menulis dan membaca, tetapi dalam masyarakat Islam dahulu buta huruf tidak bermakna buta ilmu.

Business is love made visible, membangun bisnis adalah perwujudan cinta yang sebenarnya; cinta kepada sesama manusia; cinta terhadap alam semesta dan penciptanya. Business profit doesn’t result from what we get, but from what we give. Keuntungan bisnis bukan berasal dari apa yang kita peroleh, tapi dari apa yang telah kita berikan. Ini tak hanya berlaku dalam dunia bisnis, tapi juga merefleksikan sisi terbaik manusia. Ya, seni terindah dari sisi kemanusiaan adalah kedermawaan hati, yang tak menuntut ditilik manusia lain. (244)

But blaming Islam is a simple answer, easier and less controversial than re-examining the core political issues and grievances that resonate in much of the Muslim world: the failures of many Muslim governments and societies, some aspects of U.S. foreign policy representing intervention and dominance, Western support for authoritarian regimes, the invasion and occupation of Iraq, or support for Israel's military battles with Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon. (p. 136-137)

But if you love and must needs have desires, let these be your desires: To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night. To know the pain of too much tenderness. TO be wounded by your own understanding of love; And to bleed willingly and joyfully. To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving. TO rest at the noon hour and meditate on love's ecstacy; To return home at eventide with gratitude; And then to sleep with a prayer for the beloved in your heart and a song of praise upon your lips.

But Khair did not need such proof of her husband's love for her. Over and over again,James had risked everything for her. Most relationships in life can survive - or not - without being put to any really crucial, fundamental test. It was James's fate for his love to be tested not once, but four times....At each stage he could easily have washed his hands off his teenage lover. Each time he chose to remain true to her.That, not the words of any will, was the evidence she could cling onto.

But later that night, as I brush my teeth in the bathroom, I overhear Baba and Thaya Jaan talking in the guest room next door. “ All this music all the time. You shouldn’t let Amina do so much singing and piano,” Thaya Jaan says. I stop brushing and strain to hear every word, trying to follow. “But, Bhai Jaan, she is so talented. Her music teachers say she is really quite gifted.” “Yes, but music is forbidden in Islam. It’s a waste of time and has no benefit. Instead of filling her head with music, she should focus on memorizing Quran.” The toothpaste suddenly tastes bitter. I spit it out and wait to hear what Baba will say. Surely he’ll say the things he’s always told me, like how music makes him feel closer to God and that my talent is a gift from Allah. But all Baba says is, “Yes, Bhai Jaan,” and then he stays quiet. I am numb. Is Thaya Jaan right? Am I doing something wrong?

But what else are secrets for if not discovery? That is their nature. Only time stands between a mystery and its rightful master.

By the time of the arrival of Islam in the early seventeenth century CE, what we now call the Middle East was divided between the Persian and Byzantine empires. But with the spread of this new religion from Arabia, a powerful empire emerged, and with it a flourishing civilization and a glorious golden age. Given how far back it stretches in time, the history of the region -- and even of Iraq itself -- is too big a canvas for me to paint. Instead, what I hope to do in this book is take on the nonetheless ambitious task of sharing with you a remarkable story; one of an age in which great geniuses pushed the frontiers of knowledge to such an extent that their work shaped civilizations to this day.

CAIR is still trying to promote its strange claim that criticism of its ideology is racist....The ridiculous claims that criticism of Islam is an act of bigotry fail to take into account the fact that former Muslims like Bosch, Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Firoozeh Bazrafkan have been some of the sharpest critics of the ideology. Did they also change races?

Can I aske forgiveness for someone else, someone whose already dead? Yes, you can. Of course you can. And you can give charity in their name and you can recite the Qur'an for their sake. All these things will reach them, your prayers will ease the hardship and loneliness of their grave or it will reach them in bright, beautiful gifts. Gifts to unwrap and enjoy and they will know that this gift is from you.

Carilah tiga tipe teman yang harus didekati dan miliki, kegembiraan, ketenangan dan semangat yang tinggi. Tiga musuh yang engkau harus jauhi, yaitu sifat pesimis, bimbang dan putus asa.

Centuries have passed since the wars of religion ceased in Europe, and since men stopped dying in large numbers because of arcane theological disputes. Hence, perhaps, the incredulity and denial with which Westerners have greeted news of the theology and practices of the Islamic State. Many refuse to believe that this group is as devout as it claims to be, or as backward-looking or apocalyptic as its actions and statements suggest. "Their skepticism is comprehensible. In the past, Westerners who accused Muslims of blindly following ancient scriptures came to deserved grief from academics—notably the late Edward Said—who pointed out that calling Muslims 'ancient' was usually just another way to denigrate them. Look instead, these scholars urged, to the conditions in which these ideologies arose—the bad governance, the shifting social mores, the humiliation of living in lands valued only for their oil. "Without acknowledgment of these factors, no explanation of the rise of the Islamic State could be complete. But focusing on them to the exclusion of ideology reflects another kind of Western bias: that if religious ideology doesn’t matter much in Washington or Berlin, surely it must be equally irrelevant in Raqqa or Mosul. When a masked executioner says Allahu akbar while beheading an apostate, sometimes he’s doing so for religious reasons.

Certainly If John moschos where to come back today it is likely that he would find much more than that was familiar and the practices of a modern Muslim Sufi then he would with those of, say, a contemporary American evangelical. Yet the simple truth has been lost by our tendency to think of Christianity as a western religion rather than the Oriental faith it actually is. Moreover the modern demonization of Islam in the west, and the recent growth of Muslim fundamentalism (itself in many ways a reaction to the West's repeated humiliation of the Muslim world), have led to an atmosphere where few are aware of, or indeed wish to be aware of, the profound kinship of Christianity and Islam.

Certainly the shahadah contained an important theological innovation, but that innovation was not monotheism. With this simple profession of faith, Muhammad was declaring to Mecca that the God of the heavens and the earth required no intermediate whatsoever, but could be accessed by anyone.

Ceux qui accusent les dessinateurs de Charlie Hebdo d'islamophobie chaque fois qu'un personnage porte une barbe ne sont pas seulement malhonnête ou de mauvaise foi gratuitement, ils montrent leur soutien à l'islam dit radical. Lorsqu'on dessine un vieux qui commet un acte pédophile, on ne jette pas l'opprobre sur tous les vieux, on ne laisse pas entendre que tous les vieux sont pédophiles (ni l'inverse).

Charles Martel’s victory at the Battle of Tours in 732 is recognised for having prevented the spread of Islam throughout Europe.

Chinese sources suggest that Islam arrived in Canton in about 620, a full dozen years before the death of the Prophet.

Christians today who view the Bible as God's unadulterated and inerrant word are rightly labeled fundamentalists, while Muslims who think the same of the Qur'an are simply considered Muslims.

Civil order mattered. Zoe didn’t know why Farah continued to wear the headscarf, but most Middle-Eastern women wore modest clothing to anchor themselves to a moral order, in an upside-down world. Zoe wore the chador as a protective shell, to erase herself, to avoid thinking, to envelop herself in the complete custody of her adopted Muslim sisters. In their care she would come out healed, able to process the bigotry that caused the murder of her Jewish parents. Then, when she was whole again, she would reclaim her place in the world. Though others couldn’t see it, behind the nameless, shapeless, Middle-Eastern garb, she was healing. The chador cocooned and nurtured her. Dour exteriors meant blossoming interiors . . . to Zoe. Judaism centered her, but Islam shielded her. Both served their purpose . . . for now.

Christians and Jews often taunted the Arabs about their polytheistic beliefs and their lack of an overarching creed and an afterlife. Consequently, a sense of religious inferiority arose among the desert dwellers, along with a pent-up desire for a comprehensive belief system of their own.

Christ attained the ultimate spiritual oneness through prayer and devotion, Moses and Mohammed through prayer, Buddha and all the Indian sages through intense meditation and so did I. And so can you.

Comme le Christianisme, l'Islam enseigne que Jésus n'a pas eu de père humain, qu'il est « Parole de Dieu », qu'il est né d'une Vierge et que lui et cette Vierge-Mère ont le privilège unique de ne pas avoir été « touchés par le diable » au moment de leur naissance, ce qui indique l'Immaculée Conception ; comme il est impossible même au point de vue musulman que tous ces privilèges incomparables n'aient une signification secondaire, qu'ils ne se soient produits qu'« en passant » et sans laisser de traces décisives, les chrétiens se demanderont comment les musulmans peuvent sans contradiction concilier cette sublimité avec la foi en un Prophète subséquent. Pour le comprendre, - tout argument métaphysique mis à part, - il faut tenir compte de ceci: le Monothéisme intégral comporte deux lignées distinctes, israélite l'une et ismaélienne l'autre ; or, alors que dans la lignée israélite Abraham se trouve pour ainsi dire renouvelé ou remplacé par Moïse, - la Révélation sinaïtique étant comme un second commencement du Monothéisme, - Abraham reste toujours le Révélateur primordiale et unique pour les fils d'Ismaël. Le miracle sinaïtique appelait le miracle messianique ou christique : c'est le Christ qui, à un certain point de vue, clôt la lignée mosaïque et clôt la Bible, glorieusement et irrévocablement. Mais ce cycle allant de Moïse à Jésus, ou du Sinaï à l'Ascension, n'englobe précisément pas tout le Monothéisme : la lignée ismaélienne, et toujours abrahamique, se situait en dehors de ce cycle et restait en quelque sorte disponible ; elle appelait à son tour un achèvement glorieux, de caractère non sinaïtique et christique, mais abrahamique et mohammédien, et en un certain sens « désertique » et « nomade »

Colonization of the world, more often than not by robbery and warfare, spread Christianity into the Americas and other corners of the earth, just as Islam was spread throughout Asia and Africa. lt is not a coincidence that the two most widespread religions in the world today are the most warlike and intolerant religions in history. Before the rise of Christianity, religious tolerance, including a large degree of religious freedom, was not only custom but in many ways law under the Roman and Persian empires. They conquered for greed and power, rarely for any declared religious reasons, and actually sought to integrate foreign religions into their civilization, rather than seeking to destroy them. People were generally not killed because they practiced a different religion. Indeed, the Christians were persecuted for denying that the popular gods existed — not for following a different religion. In other words, Christians were persecuted for being intolerant.

Contrary to the invariable translation of the word ikhtiyar by 'choice', we maintain that ikhtyar does not simply mean 'choice'. The word khayr, meaning 'good', which is bound in meaning with ikhtiyar and being derived from the same root, determines that the choice meant is towards what is good. This point is most important when aligned to the philosophical question of freedom. A so-called 'choice' towards what is bad is therefore not a choice. Since we affirm that freedom is to act as our real and true nature demands, only the exercise of that choice which is good can properly be called 'free choice'. A choice for the better is an exercise of freedom. It presupposes knowledge of good and evil. A 'choice' for the worse is not a choice, as it is based upon ignorance and on the instigation of the soul that inclines towards the blameworthy aspects of the animal powers.

Critical to the fight against global terrorism is an ability to move beyond presuppositions and stereotypes in our attitudes and policies and to form partnerships that transcend an "us" and "them" view of the world. (p. 135)

Converts are a favourite pray of fundamentalists they are often isolated, confused and in need of reassurance which radical muslims are only to happy to give.

Contrary to what the West seems to think, it is not poverty that brings people like us so close to God. It's the fact that no one is more curious than we are to learn why we are here on earth and what will happen to us in the next world.

Dalam lawatan itu, saya menyatakan kebimbangan tentang aliran-aliran extremism yang sedang menular di kalangan beberapa kelompok aktivis Islam pada waktu itu. Fazlur Rahman menasihati bahawa intelektual dan pemikir Muslim tidak harus pasif. Harus kerja kuat, menulis dan menjelaskan kepada masyarakat dengan mendalam dan integriti. Tanpa gerakan intelektualisme yang mendalam, kebangkitan Islam akan gagal dan kecewa.

Day and Night The night is long: do not shorten it by sleep. The day is fair: do not darken it with wrongdoing.

Da molto tempo, ai musulmani e ai miei concittadini ripeto che sono di nazionalità svizzera, con una memoria egiziana, di religione musulmana, di cultura europea, universalista per principio, marocchino e mauriziano d'adozione. Non c'è alcun problema: vivo con queste identità e l'una o l'altra può diventare prioritaria a seconda del contesto e della situazione

Dari Profesor Charlotte ia bisa belajar tentang kekuatan fokus. "Sejak masih remaja, ketika teman-temanku lebih suka belajar menyanyi dan menari, aku tidak. Aku tidak ikut-ikutan mereka.

Dapatkah seseorang itu membayangkan bahawa pedang Islam yang patah dapat menakutkan Maharaja Khan yang gagah perkasa itu hingga tunduk kepada agama yang dibawa oleh Rasulullah?

Democracy is in the blood of the Muslims, who look upon complete equality of mankind, and believe in fraternity, equality, and liberty.

Decadence, decadence, he said to himself. They’ve lost everything and gained nothing. The French had merely daubed on the finishing touches at the end of a process which had begun five hundred years ago, at least. Their intuitive moral desires coincided with the ideals embodied in the formulas of their religion, yet they could live in accordance neither with those deepest impulses nor with the precepts of the religion, because society came in between with all the pressure of its tradition. No one could afford to be honest or generous or merciful because every one of them distrusted all the others; often they had more confidence in a Christian they were meeting for the first time than in a Moslem they had known for years.

Dengan segala kehebatannya dalam dunia keilmuan, tengoklah bagaimana sikap 'tahu diri' seorang al-Ghazali. Beliau tetap menempatkan dirinya di bawah mazhab Shafii dalam soal metodologi ushul fiqh. Beliau tidak merasa lebih hebat dari Shafii. Banyak ilmuan besar Islam tetap memelihara sikap adil dan beradab dalam mengkaji dan menyebarkan ilmu kepada masyarakat.

Den Wert von vieren kennen aber nur vier: Den Wert des Lebens kennen nur die Toten; den Wert des Gesunden nur die Kranken; den Wert der Jugendkraft kennen nur die Altersschwachen; und den Wert des Reichtums kennen nur die Armen.

Der geliebte Freund des Freunds des Herrn, Uwais al-Qarani im Lande Jemen. Er lügt niemals, er ißt niemals Verbot'nes, Uwais al-Qarani im Lande Jemen. Er stand früh auf und ging auf seinem Pfade, gedenkend Gottes tausend und ein Male, "Allah, Allah!" sprache er, Kamele leitend, Uwais al-Qarani im Lande Jemen.
