Immediate Boss...not a loss

In my childhood, I used to fear my father before making any mischief. When I grew up the same fear appeared in the form of my teacher. Now days, this fear is the possession of my manager.
The important thing to note here is that; I feared from my father rather than my grandfather then I feared from my teacher rather than the principal of the school and now, I fear from my manager rather than the managing director of my company.

Although the MD of my company, the principal of the school and my grandfather have more authorities, yet I always felt fear from my “immediate bosses”. The reason behind is that we always take the pressure of our immediate boss, to whom we are answerable. The fear of “ultimate boss” remains somewhere in the back store of our mind; it is there, but not effecting our actions.

What we need to do being a Muslim is to realize that Allah is not only our Ultimate Boss; but is also our Immediate Boss and so we have to fear Him all the time.

Which Religion?

It is a matter of common sense that only one President is suitable on a nation for a specific period of time. There cannot be more than one president.

Similarly, there is only one principal or ordering authority of any school at a time. More than one principal will result in system collapse.

Same is the case with religion. We have to check all the religions to find out which one of them speaks about the commanding authority of Only One GOD.

And also which shows us the properties and qualities of a True Organizer, Who can organize the whole universe and all beyond it.

Creator cannot be like His creations; neither physically and mentally nor habitually and situationally. He must be the Most Powerful and the Most Sensible of all. Only the teachings of that religion must be accepted.

"This is the Book (Quran), whereof there is no doubt, a guidance to those who fear Allah (abstain from all which He has forbidden)." (Quran;Ch-41:V-53)

"Soon We will show them Our Signs in the universe, and in their own selves, until it becomes manifest to them that this is the Truth. Is it not sufficient in regard to your Lord that He is a Witness over all things?" (Quran; Ch-41: V-53)

Why Religion?

Religion means the rules, regulations and ethics to follow in this life which will take us to glory in the Hereafter.

The Day of Judgment is meant for the evaluation of our deeds, whether good or bad, and the decision to send us in the Heaven or the Hell.

The religion comes from the Almighty GOD, the One and Only, and compels us to obey His orders and worship Him in the way He wants.

Any Government Law is not sufficient at all to satisfy and grant justice to every human being. Because, only the Creator knows the best, how to deal with His creations, how His creations will react and how they will deviate from His teachings.

"Verily, in the creation of heavens and the earth, and in the alternation of night and day, there are indeed signs for men of understanding." (Quran; Ch-3:V-190)

"Soon We will show them Our Signs in the universe, and in their own selves, until it becomes manifest to them that this is the Truth. Is it not sufficient in regard to your Lord that He is a Witness over all things?" (Quran; Ch-41: V-53)

Does GOD Exist?

Today Science tells us that everything has an origin or source. But there must be Someone who does not belong to any source. Who is the Originator of all origins!

This Originator is the GOD; One and Only, neither born nor created; But the Creator of all, the Strongest of all, the Lord of entire universe and beyond all of it.
The One Who has told us all the laws and facts 1400 years ago, that science is telling us today.

Those who think that there is no GOD are actually misguided by someone whom they have consulted about GOD.

Or they do not believe in GOD because they might have seen the worshipers of GOD indulged in bad habits; which is, of course, not enough to justify the non-existence of the Almighty.

"It is He Who shows you the lightning, as a fear (for some) and as a hope (for others). And it is He Who brings up (originates) the clouds, heavy (with water)." (Quran; Ch-13: V-12)

"Soon We will show them Our Signs in the universe, and in their own selves, until it becomes manifest to them that this is the Truth. Is it not sufficient in regard to your Lord that He is a Witness over all things?" (Quran; Ch-41: V-53)

"...So, whosoever accepts the guidance, it is only for his own self; and whosoever goes astray, he goes astray only to his (own) loss...." (Quran; Ch-39: V-41)

Sorry for Inconvenience

Once I was in a strange area looking for someone to talk with. There were few houses in that street. I knocked at each door but there was no response from inside. I kept on knocking again and again but disappointed. It became sure to me that either there was no one inside or even if there was, he/she was not interested in opening the door on my call. So I finally decided to try some other door. Isn’t it logical?

I know that I have been mailing to you great people since last year and amongst all of you there are many who are totally strangers to me, as I am to them. So I realized that I must have been annoying, a lot from you, with these messages and I really feel regretful of myself for that. Please forgive me and accept my apologies if I hurt anyone of you or your feelings. My intention was never to do so. I was just trying to somehow share with you the change came in my life since last year. Anyways, who am I to interrupt between the relation of you and Allah? Who am I to guide you about your religion? I never tried to make you change your life, what I struggled for was to make you realize the importance of reading and understanding the Quran and that’s all. Even then I apologies for each and every bad feeling came into your heart about my intentions.

What I tried to remind you (only remind, not force or compel), was;

“Is it not Allah, the Lord of all lords?” (Ch-94, V-8)

And when Allah says that,

“O you who believe! Enter into Islam completely (whole heartily) and don’t follow the footsteps of Satin, surely he is your open enemy” (Ch-2; V-208)

Then why we become doubtful about it?

I have been very grateful to all of you for letting “in” my mails in your inbox and will remain grateful for that. Please reply this mail privately if you want me to stop disturbing you with these messages (ofcourse the reply will be dealt confidentially). Who am I to mind or feel bad for doing so? My messages have got no importance at all. The important thing is Quran. If you have got the guidance from it, there is no need of my mails, tell your other friends about Quran and its importance. And I will be grateful not mailing to those who are not interested in reading to them. Please feel free to response

Once again I apologies for annoying anyone of you and I ask forgiveness from Allah for that. For those who don’t want to receive my mails anymore; my final message will be

Please go to Quran and read it in the language you understand the best (atleast once).
I am sure Allah will guide us all to the right. Inshahallah.
