Muslims are a barbaric

The religion of Islam was revealed for all societies and all times and so it accommodates widely differing social requirements. Circumstances may warrant the taking of another wife, but the right is granted, according to the Qur’an only on condition that the husband is scrupulously fair. No woman can be forced into this kind of marriage if they do not wish it.



Polygamy is neither mandatory, nor encouraged, but merely permitted. Images of “sheikhs with harems” are not consistent with Islam, as a man is only allowed at most four wives only if he can fulfill the stringent conditions of treating each fairly and providing each with separate housing etc. Permission to practice polygamy is not associated with mere satisfaction of passion. It is rather associated with compassion toward widows and orphans. It was the Qur’an that limited and put conditions on the practice of polygamy among the Arabs, who had as many as ten or more wives and considered them “property”. It is both honest and accurate to say that it is Islam which regulated this practice, limited it, made it more humane and instituted equal rights and status for all wives. What the Qur’anic decrees amount to, taken together is discouragement of polygamy unless necessity for it exists. It is also evident that the general trend in Islam is monogamy and not polygamy. It is a very small percentage of Muslims that practice polygamy over the world. However, permission to practice limited polygamy is only consistent with Islam’s realistic view of the nature of man and woman and of various social needs, problems and cultural variations. It also is the frank and straightforward approach of Islam in dealing with practical problems. Rather than requiring hypocritical and superficial compliance, Islam delves deeper into the problems of individuals and societies, and provides for legitimate and clean solutions which are far more beneficial than would be the case if they were ignored. There is no doubt that the second wife legally married and treated kindly is better off than a mistress without any legal rights or expermanence.





Misconceptions: Muslims are a barbaric, backwards people



Among the reasons for the rapid and peaceful spread of Islam was the simplicity of its doctrine -Islam calls for faith in only one God worthy of worship. It also repeatedly instructs man to use his powers of intelligence and observation. Within a few years of the spread of Islam, great civilizations and universities were flourishing, for “according to the Prophet (pbuh), ’seeking knowledge is an obligation for every Muslim man and woman’. ”



The synthesis of Eastern and Western ideas and of new thought with old, brought about great advances in medicine, mathematics, physics, astronomy, geography, architecture, art, literature and history. Many crucial systems such as algebra, the Arabic numerals, and also the concept of the zero (vital to the advancement of mathematics), were transmitted to medieval Europe from Islam. Sophisticated instruments were developed which were to make possible the European voyages of discovery, including the astrolabe, the quadrant and good navigational maps.





Misconceptions: Muhammad was the founder of Islam and Muslims worship him



Muslims only worshio the one true God and believe that Muhammad (peace be upon him) was the last messenger sent by God to the world. Muhammad PBUH was a most noble man and beloved prophet, yet Muslims certainly donot worship him, or any other created being.



Muhammad PBUH was born in Mecca in the year 570. Since his father died before his birth and his mother shortly afterwards, he was raised by his uncle from the respected tribe of Quraysh. As he grew up, he became known for his truthfulness, generosity and sincerity, so that he was sought after for his ability to arbitrate in disputes. The historians describe him as calm and meditative. Muhammad PBUHwas of a deeply religious nature, and had long detested the decadence of his society.



It became his habit to meditate from time to time in the Cave of Hira near Mecca. At the age of 40, while engaged in a meditative retreat, Muhammad PBUH received his first revelation from God, through the Angel Gabriel. This revelation, which continued for 23 years, is known as the Qur’an. As soon as he began to recite the words he heard from Gabriel and to preach the truth which God had revealed to him, he and his small group of followers suffered bitter persecution, which grew so fierce that in the year 622 God gave them the command to emigrate.



This event, the Hijra ‘migration’, in which they left Mecca for the city of Medina, marks the beginning of the Muslim calendar. After several years, the Prophet and his followers were able to return to Mecca, where they forgave their enemies and established Islam definitively. Before the Prophet PBUHdied at the age of 63, the greater part of Arabia was Muslim, and within a century of his death Islam had spread to Spain in the West and as far East as China. 

ムスリムとは誰ですか？

Q：クルアーンに科学的および医学的事実があるのは本当ですか？

A：はい、そうです。しかし、覚えておいてください、クルアーンは科学的な本ではありません。コーランは、全能者からすべての人類への神聖なメッセージと指導を運びます。このメッセージは、科学的および医学的側面を含む人間の生活のあらゆる側面に触れています。人々がイスラム教を受け入れたとき、それはクルアーンがもたらした科学的事実のためではなく、一つの全能者を信じる神のメッセージのためでした。イスラームは賢明で人間の本能と調和する単純な宗教であるため、人々はイスラームを受け入れました。イスラームは、すべての人類の公正、平等、そして純粋さに基づいた完全な生き方です。



Q：さまざまなイスラム教派に気づきました！それらをリストしてくれませんか？

A：イスラム教徒の約84％がスンニ派です。スンニという言葉は、アラビア語であるスンナという言葉に基づいており、預言者の伝統を意味します。スンニ派は、アッラーを1人の創造主と信じており、モハマドは彼の最後の最後の使者です。また、スンニ派はクルアーンとスンナをイスラム教の2つの主要な情報源と信じています。しかし、シーア派、バハイ派、スーフィー派、アフマディヤ派など、イスラム教の正しい道から外れたイスラム教徒の束があります。ですから、あなたが誰を扱っているかを知ることに注意してください。



Q：世界中のイスラム教徒の総数は何人ですか？

A：1997年の統計によると、人口は17億8千万人のイスラム教徒です。



Q：イスラム教徒はなぜそんなに多くのことを祈っているのですか？アッラーへの信仰は十分ではありませんか？

A：全能者からの戒めであるという事実に加えて、祈り（サラ）はイスラム教徒にとって継続的かつ毎日のしつけであると考えられています。確かに、私たちは心に一つの神とその使者モハマド（彼に平安あれ）を抱いているという信念を持っていますが、初期のイスラム教徒と同様に、神は私たちが遵守し守るべき法律と戒めを定めています。私たちは祈るとき、神の真の言葉と指示があるクルアーンを暗唱します。私たちはまた、神に賛美と祝福を提供します。イスラム教徒と神の間のコミュニケーションのラインは決して遅くなることはありません。祈り（サラ）自体は全能者への賛美と見なされます。それが私たちが神とのつながりを作り、彼を毎日思い出す方法です。それは私たちが自分自身を霊的に高めながら、自分自身を接地する方法です。



Q：私は霊的に混乱しています！私は何をすべきか？

A：真実を探すのはあなた自身の責任であり、真実を探す正直な意図があれば、神はあなたの努力を助けるでしょう。イスラームについての詳細を読み、選択肢を比較検討してください。神の初期の啓示と使者についての詳細を読み、彼らが当時彼らの人々に伝えていた彼らの法と指導を理解し、そして現在のすべての宗教を比較し、どれが初期の啓示と一致するかを見てください。



Q：しかし、私は自分の信念に満足しています。それで、そもそもなぜ他の宗教を追求する必要があるのですか？

A：人類は彼が望むものは何でもする自由な意志を持っていることを忘れないでください。あなたが自分の宗教に満足しているなら、あなたは自分の行動と信念に対して単独で責任を負い、他の誰にも責任を負いません。



Q：どうすればムスリムになれますか？

A：他の宗教とは異なり、イスラム教には、宗教団体や個人による特定の儀式や洗礼はありません。あなたがする必要があるのは、証言（Shahadatan）を宣言することです。証言は：「私はアッラー以外に神はなく、モハマドはアッラーの使徒であることを証言します。」 ’この純粋な信念を心に確立したら、イスラム教の残りの柱に進むことができます。多くのイスラム財団とモスクは、イスラムについて学び始めるのを助けることができるでしょう…









イスラームとは？



「イスラム教」という言葉はアラビア語で「全能の神にあなたの意志を委ねる」という意味です。この言葉はアラビア語の「サラーム」と同じ語根に由来し、平和を意味します。仏教、ヒンドゥー教、キリスト教など、他の宗教で使用されている名前とは異なり、「イスラム教」という名前はどちらも神によって明らかにされ、聖書-クルアーンで明示的に言及されました。イスラム教は深い精神的な意味を持っています-全能の神に自分の意志を提出することによってのみ、この人生とこれからの人生の両方で真の平和を得ることができます。イスラム教は、すべての宗教はもともと同じ本質的なメッセージを持っていたと教えています-それは神の意志に心を込めて提出し、彼と彼だけを崇拝することでした。このため、イスラム教は新しい宗教ではありませんが、神がノア、アブラハム、モーセ、イエスを含むすべての預言者に明らかにした神聖に明らかにされた究極の真理です（それらすべてに平安あれ）。



ムスリムとは誰ですか？



アラビア語の「ムスリム」は文字通り「神の御心に従う者」を意味します。イスラームのメッセージは全世界に向けられており、このメッセージを受け入れる人は誰でもムスリムになります。一部の人々は、イスラム教はアラブ人にとって単なる宗教であると誤って信じていますが、実際には世界のイスラム教徒の80％以上がアラブ人ではないため、真実からそれ以上のものはありません！ほとんどのアラブ人はイスラム教徒ですが、クリスチャンであるアラブ人がいます

Who is Allah?

Q: Is it true the Qur’an has scientific and medical facts?

A: Yes it is. But remember though, the Qur’an is not a scientific book. The Qur’an carries a divine message and guidance from the Almighty to all mankind. This message touches upon all aspects of human’s life including science and medical aspects. When people embraced Islam, it wasn’t because of the scientific facts the Qur’an brought forward, but rather because of the divine message in the belief of the One, the Almighty. People embraced Islam because Islam is a simple religion that is sensible and harmonize with the human instinct. Islam is a complete way of life that is based on fairness, equality, and purity amongst all mankind.



Q: I noticed various Islamic Sects! Could you list them for me?

A: About 84 % of Muslims are Sunni. The word Sunni is based on the word Sunnah which is an Arabic word means the Prophet’s tradition. Sunnis believe in Allah as the One Creator and Mohammad is His last and final Messenger. Also, Sunnis believe in the Qur’an and Sunnah as the two main sources of Islam. There are, however, Muslim bunches who deviated from the right path of Islam such as: Shia, Baha’i, Sufi, Ahmadiya, etc. So be cautious in knowing whom you are dealing with.



Q: What is the total number of Muslims around the world?

A: 1997 Statistics shows a population of 1.78 Billion Muslim.



Q: Why do Muslims pray so much, you know, 5 times a day! Isn’t belief in Allah enough?

A: Besides the fact it’s a Commandment from the Almighty, the prayer (Salah) is considered to be a continuous and daily discipline for Muslims. It’s true we have the belief in One God and His messenger Mohammad (peace be upon him) embedded in our hearts, but like earlier Muslims, God has prescribed Laws and Commandments for us to observe and adhere to. When we pray, we recite the Qur’an that has God’s genuine words and directions. We also offer supplications and blessings to God. The line of communication between Muslims and God never slows down ever. The prayer (Salah) itself is considered a supplication to the Almighty. It is how we make our connection to God and remember him everyday. It is how we ground ourselves while at the same time elevating ourselves spiritually.



Q: I am spiritually confused! What should I do?

A: You owe it to yourself to search for the truth, and I am sure if you have an honest intention searching for the truth, God will aid you in your endeavor. Read more about Islam and weigh your options. Read more about the early revelations & messengers of God and comprehend their law & guidance that they had conveyed to their people at that time, then compare all present religions and see which one coincide with the early revelations.



Q: But I am satisfied with my own belief, so why should I pursue other religion in the first place?

A: Remember, mankind has a free will to do whatever he desires, and we are all held accountable for what we do. If you are content with your religion, then you are solely responsible for your actions & belief and no one else.



Q: How do I become a Muslim?

A: Unlike other religions, Islam doesn’t have certain rituals or baptism by religious groups or individuals. All you need to do is to declare the Testimony (Shahadatan). The Testimony is: ‘”I testify that there is no God but Allah, and Mohammad is the Messenger of Allah”. ’Once you establish this pure belief in your heart, then you can proceed unto the rest of the pillars of Islam. Many Islamic foundations and mosques will be able to help you getting started learning about Islam…









What is Islam?



The word “Islam” is an Arabic word that means “submitting and surrendering your will to Almighty God”. The word comes from the same root as the Arabic word “salam”, which means peace. Unlike the names used for other religions, such as Buddhism, Hinduism and Christianity, the name “Islam” was both revealed by God and mentioned explicitly in the Holy Scripture – The Qur’an. Islam carries a deep spiritual meaning — only by submitting one’s will to Almighty God can one obtain true peace both in this life and in the life hereafter. Islam teaches that all religions originally had the same essential message — which was to submit whole-heartedly to the will of God and to worship Him and Him alone. For this reason, Islam is not a new religion but is the same divinely revealed Ultimate Truth that God revealed to all prophets, including Noah, Abraham, Moses and Jesus (peace be upon them all).



Who are Muslims?



The Arabic word “Muslim” literally means “someone who submits to the will of God”. The message of Islam is meant for the entire world and anyone who accepts this message becomes a Muslim. Some people mistakenly believe that Islam is just a religion for Arabs, but nothing could be further from the truth, since in actuality over 80% of the world’s Muslims are not Arabs! Even though most Arabs are Muslims, there are Arabs who are Christians, Jews and atheists. If one just takes a look at the various peoples who live in the Muslim World — from Nigeria to Bosnia and from Morocco to Indonesia — it is easy enough to see that Muslims come from all different races, ethnic groups and nationalities. From the very beginning, Islam had a universal message for all people. This can be seen in the fact that some of the early companions of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) were not only Arabs, but also Persians, Africans and Byzantine Romans. Being a Muslim entails complete acceptance and active obedience to the revealed will of Almighty God. A Muslim is a person who freely accepts to base his beliefs, values and faith on the will of Almighty God. In the past (even though you don’t see it as much today), the word “Mohammedans” was often used as a label for Muslims. This label is a misnomer and is the result of either willful distortion or sheer ignorance. One of the reasons for the misconception is that Europeans were taught for centuries that Muslims worshipped the Prophet Muhammad in the same way that Christians worship Jesus. This is absolutely not true since a Muslim is not permitted to worship anyone or anything besides Almighty God.



Who is Allah?



Very often one will hear the Arabic word “Allah” being used in regards to Islam. The word “Allah” is simply the Arabic word for Almighty God, and is the same word used by Arabic speaking Christians and Jews. If one were to pick up an Arabic translation of the Bible, one would see the word “Allah” being use where the word “God” is used in English. Actually, the Arabic word for Almighty God, “Allah”, is quite similar to the word for God in other Semitic languages — for example, the Hebrew word for God is “Elah”. For various reasons, some non-Muslims mistakenly believe that Muslims worship a different God than Jews and Christians. This is certainly not the case, since the Pure Monotheism of Islam calls all people to the worship of the God of Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and all of the other prophets (peace be upon them). However, even though Jews, Christians and Muslims worship the same God — since there is only one true God — their concepts concerning Him differ in some significant ways.



Who is Muhammad?



The last and final prophet that God sent to humanity was the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Muhammad explained, interpreted and lived the teachings of Islam. The Prophet Muhammad is the greatest of all prophets for many reasons, but mainly because the results of his mission have brought more people into the pure belief in One God than any other prophet. Even though other religious communities claimed to believe in One God, over time they had corrupted their beliefs by taking their prophets and saints as intercessors with Almighty God. Some religions believe their prophets to be manifestations of God, “God Incarnate” or the “Son of God”. All of these false ideas lead to the creation being worshipped instead of the Creator, which contributed to the idolatrous practice of believing that Almighty God can be approached through intermediaries. In order to guard against these falsehoods, the Prophet Muhammad always emphasized that he was only a human being tasked with the preaching of God’s message. He taught Muslims to refer to him as “the Messenger of God and His Slave”. To Muslims, Muhammad is the supreme example for all people — he was the exemplary prophet, statesman, military leader, ruler, teacher, neighbour husband, father and friend. Unlike other prophets and messengers, the Prophet Muhammad lived in the full light of history. Muslims don’t need to have “faith” that he existed and that his teachings are preserved — they know it to be a fact. Even when his followers only numbered a few dozen, Almighty God informed Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) that he had be sent as a mercy to all of mankind. Because people had distorted or forgotten God’s messages from previous prophets, God took it upon Himself to protect the message revealed to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). This was because Almighty God promised not to send another messenger after him. Since all of God’s messengers have preached the message of Islam — i.e. submission to the will of God and the worship of God alone — Muhammad is actually the last prophet of Islam, not the first.



What are the Teachings of Islam?



The foundation of the Islamic faith is belief in the Unity of God. This means to believe that there is only one Creator and Sustainer of everything in the Universe, and that nothing is divine or worthy of being worshipped except for Him.

Truly believing in the Unity of God means much more than simply believing that there is “One God” — as opposed to two, three or four. There are a number of religions that claim belief in “One God” and believe that ultimately there is only one Creator and Sustainer of the Universe. Islam, however, not only insists on this, but also rejects using such words as “Lord” and “Savior” for anyone besides Almighty God. Islam also rejects the use of all intermediaries between God and Man, and insists that people approach God directly and reserve all worship for Him alone. Muslims believe that Almighty God is Compassionate, Loving and Merciful. The essence of falsehood is the claim that God cannot deal with and forgive His creatures directly. By over-emphasizing the burden of sin, as well as claiming that God cannot forgive you directly, other religions seek to get people to despair of the Mercy of God. Once they are convinced that they cannot approach God directly, people can be mislead into turning to false gods for help. These “false gods” can take various forms, such as saints, angels, or someone who is believed to be the “Son of God” or “God Incarnate”.

In almost all cases, people who worship, pray to or seek help from a false god don’t consider it to be, or call it, a “god”. They claim belief in One Supreme God, but claim that they pray to and worship others beside God only to get closer to Him. In Islam, there is a clear distinction between the Creator and the created. There is no ambiguity in divinity — anything that is created is not deserving of worship and only the Creator is worthy of being worshipped. Some religions falsely believe that God has become part of His creation, and this has led people to believe that they can worship something created in order to reach their Creator.

Muslims believe that even though God is Unique and beyond comprehension — He has no “Son”, partners or associates. According to Muslim belief, Almighty God “does not beget nor was He begotten” — neither literally, allegorically, metaphorically, physically or metaphysically — He is Absolutely Unique and Eternal. He is in control of everything and is perfectly capable of bestowing His infinite Mercy and Forgiveness to whomever He chooses. That is why is called the All-Powerful and Most-Merciful. Almighty God has created the Universe for man, and as such wants the best for all human beings. Muslims see everything in the Universe as a sign of the Creatorship and Benevolence of Almighty God. Also, the belief in the Unity of God is not merely a metaphysical concept. It is a dynamic belief that affects ones view of humanity, society and all aspects of life. As a logical corollary to the Islamic belief in the Oneness of God, is its belief in the oneness of mankind and humanity.



What is the Qur’an?



It is the final revelation of the will of Almighty God’s to all of mankind, which was conveyed through the Angel Gabriel, in Arabic, to the Prophet Muhammad in its sounds, words and meanings. The Qur’an (sometimes spelled Koran), was relayed to the Prophet’s companions, which they memorized verbatim, and which has been publicly and continually recited by them and their successors until the present day. In short, the Qur’an is the book of guidance from God par excellence. The Qur’an is still memorized and taught by millions of people. The language of the Qur’an, Arabic, is still a living language to millions of people, so unlike the scriptures of other religions, the Qur’an is still read in its original language by countless millions of people. The Qur’an is a living miracle in the Arabic language; and is know to be inimitable in its style, form and spiritual impact. God’s final revelation to mankind, the Qur’an, was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad over a period of 23 years. The Qur’an, in contrast to many other religious books, was always thought to be the Word of God by those who believed in it, i.e. it wasn’t something decreed by a religious council many years after being written. Also, the Qur’an was recited publicly in front of both the Muslim and non-Muslim communities during the life of the Prophet Muhammad. The entire Qur’an was also completely written down in lifetime of the Prophet, and numerous companions of the Prophet memorized the entire Qur’an word-for-word as it was revealed. So unlike other scriptures, the Qur’an was always in the hands of the common believers, it was always thought to be God’s word and, due to wide spread memorization, it was perfectly preserved. In regards to the teachings of the Qur’an - it is a universal scripture, and it is addressed to all of mankind, and not to a particular tribe or “chosen people”. The message that it brings is nothing new, but the same message of all of the prophets - submit to Almighty God and worship Him alone. As such, God’s revelation in the Qur’an focuses on teaching human beings the importance of believing in the Unity of God and framing their lives around the guidance which He has sent. Additionally, the Qur’an contains the stories of the previous prophets, such as Abraham, Noah, Moses and Jesus; as well as many commands and prohibitions from God. In modern times in which so many people are caught up in doubt, spiritual despair and “political correctness”, the Qur’anic teachings offer solutions to the emptiness of our lives and the turmoil that is gripping the world today.



How Do Muslims View the Nature of Man, the Purpose of Life and the Life Hereafter?



In the Holy Qur’an, God teaches human beings that they were created in order to worship Him, and that the basis of all true worship is God-consciousness/piety. Since the teachings of Islam encompass all aspects of life and ethics, God-consciousness is encouraged in all human affairs. Islam makes it clear that all human acts are acts of worship if they are done for God alone and in accordance to His Divine Law. As such, worship in Islam is not limited to religious rituals. The teachings of Islam act as a mercy and a healing for the human soul, and such qualities as humility, sincerity, patience and charity are strongly encouraged. Additionally, Islam condemns pride and self-righteousness, since Almighty God is the only judge of human righteousness. The Islamic view of the nature of man is also realistic and well balanced. Human beings are not believed to be inherently sinful, but are seen as equally capable of both good and evil.

Islam also teaches that faith and action go hand-in-hand. God has given people free will, and the measure of one’s faith is one’s deeds and actions. However, human beings have also been created weak and regularly fall into sin. This is the nature of the human being as created by God in His Wisdom, and it is not inherently “corrupt” or in need of repair. This is because the avenue of repentance is always open to all human beings, and Almighty God loves the repentant sinner more than one who does not sin at all. The true balance of an Islamic life is established by having a healthy fear of God as well as a sincere belief in His infinite Mercy. A life without fear of God leads to sin and disobedience, while believing that we have sinned so much that God will not possibly forgive us only leads to despair. In light of this, Islam teaches that: only the misguided despair of the Mercy of their Lord. Additionally, the Holy Qur’an, which was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad, contains a great deal of teachings about the life hereafter and the Day of Judgment. Due to this, Muslims believe that all human beings will ultimately be judged by God for their beliefs and actions in their earthly lives. In judging human beings, Almighty God will be both Merciful and Just, and people will only be judged for what they were capable of. Suffice it to say that Islam teaches that life is a test, and that all human beings will be accountable before God. A sincere belief in the life hereafter is the key to leading a well-balanced life and moral. Otherwise, life is viewed as an end in itself, which causes human beings to become more selfish, materialistic and immoral.

Muslims believe that even though God is Unique and beyond comprehension — He has no “Son”, partners or associates. According to Muslim belief, Almighty God “does not beget nor was He begotten” — neither literally, allegorically, metaphorically, physically or metaphysically — He is Absolutely Unique and Eternal. He is in control of everything and is perfectly capable of bestowing His infinite Mercy and Forgiveness to whomever He chooses. That is why is called the All-Powerful and Most-Merciful. Almighty God has created the Universe for man, and as such wants the best for all human beings. Muslims see everything in the Universe as a sign of the Creatorship and Benevolence of Almighty God. Also, the belief in the Unity of God is not merely a metaphysical concept. It is a dynamic belief that affects ones view of humanity, society and all aspects of life. As a logical corollary to the Islamic belief in the Oneness of God, is its belief in the oneness of mankind and humanity.



What is the Qur’an?



It is the final revelation of the will of Almighty God’s to all of mankind, which was conveyed through the Angel Gabriel, in Arabic, to the Prophet Muhammad in its sounds, words and meanings. The Qur’an (sometimes spelled Koran), was relayed to the Prophet’s companions, which they memorized verbatim, and which has been publicly and continually recited by them and their successors until the present day. In short, the Qur’an is the book of guidance from God par excellence. The Qur’an is still memorized and taught by millions of people. The language of the Qur’an, Arabic, is still a living language to millions of people, so unlike the scriptures of other religions, the Qur’an is still read in its original language by countless millions of people. The Qur’an is a living miracle in the Arabic language; and is know to be inimitable in its style, form and spiritual impact. God’s final revelation to mankind, the Qur’an, was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad over a period of 23 years. The Qur’an, in contrast to many other religious books, was always thought to be the Word of God by those who believed in it, i.e. it wasn’t something decreed by a religious council many years after being written. Also, the Qur’an was recited publicly in front of both the Muslim and non-Muslim communities during the life of the Prophet Muhammad. The entire Qur’an was also completely written down in lifetime of the Prophet, and numerous companions of the Prophet memorized the entire Qur’an word-for-word as it was revealed. So unlike other scriptures, the Qur’an was always in the hands of the common believers, it was always thought to be God’s word and, due to wide spread memorization, it was perfectly preserved. In regards to the teachings of the Qur’an - it is a universal scripture, and it is addressed to all of mankind, and not to a particular tribe or “chosen people”. The message that it brings is nothing new, but the same message of all of the prophets - submit to Almighty God and worship Him alone. As such, God’s revelation in the Qur’an focuses on teaching human beings the importance of believing in the Unity of God and framing their lives around the guidance which He has sent. Additionally, the Qur’an contains the stories of the previous prophets, such as Abraham, Noah, Moses and Jesus; as well as many commands and prohibitions from God. In modern times in which so many people are caught up in doubt, spiritual despair and “political correctness”, the Qur’anic teachings offer solutions to the emptiness of our lives and the turmoil that is gripping the world today.



How Do Muslims View the Nature of Man, the Purpose of Life and the Life Hereafter?



In the Holy Qur’an, God teaches human beings that they were created in order to worship Him, and that the basis of all true worship is God-consciousness/piety. Since the teachings of Islam encompass all aspects of life and ethics, God-consciousness is encouraged in all human affairs. Islam makes it clear that all human acts are acts of worship if they are done for God alone and in accordance to His Divine Law. As such, worship in Islam is not limited to religious rituals. The teachings of Islam act as a mercy and a healing for the human soul, and such qualities as humility, sincerity, patience and charity are strongly encouraged. Additionally, Islam condemns pride and self-righteousness, since Almighty God is the only judge of human righteousness. The Islamic view of the nature of man is also realistic and well balanced. Human beings are not believed to be inherently sinful, but are seen as equally capable of both good and evil.

Islam also teaches that faith and action go hand-in-hand. God has given people free will, and the measure of one’s faith is one’s deeds and actions. However, human beings have also been created weak and regularly fall into sin. This is the nature of the human being as created by God in His Wisdom, and it is not inherently “corrupt” or in need of repair. This is because the avenue of repentance is always open to all human beings, and Almighty God loves the repentant sinner more than one who does not sin at all. The true balance of an Islamic life is established by having a healthy fear of God as well as a sincere belief in His infinite Mercy. A life without fear of God leads to sin and disobedience, while believing that we have sinned so much that God will not possibly forgive us only leads to despair. In light of this, Islam teaches that: only the misguided despair of the Mercy of their Lord. Additionally, the Holy Qur’an, which was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad, contains a great deal of teachings about the life hereafter and the Day of Judgment. Due to this, Muslims believe that all human beings will ultimately be judged by God for their beliefs and actions in their earthly lives. In judging human beings, Almighty God will be both Merciful and Just, and people will only be judged for what they were capable of. Suffice it to say that Islam teaches that life is a test, and that all human beings will be accountable before God. A sincere belief in the life hereafter is the key to leading a well-balanced life and moral. Otherwise, life is viewed as an end in itself, which causes human beings to become more selfish, materialistic and immoral.

Q：アッラーとは誰ですか？彼は神と同じですか？

イスラム教についての質問と回答



Q：アッラーとは誰ですか？彼は神と同じですか？

A：イスラム教徒が神について話すとき、彼らは自動的にアッラーのことを考えます。アッラーはアラビア語で「一つの真の神」を意味します。彼は全能者であり、宇宙、人類、その他すべての生命体を創造した創造主です。アッラーは、生命の維持者であり、宇宙で起こるすべてのことを規制する人です。これらの質問全体を通して、私は神をアッラーと呼んでいます。

Q：ムハンマドとは誰ですか？

A：Mohammad（彼に平安あれ）は、メッカ570 CEで生まれました。 40歳で彼はアッラーに選ばれ、人類にメッセージを伝えました。メッセージは、アッラーを単独で崇拝することであり、パートナーを神に崇拝することではありません。モハマド（彼に平安あれ）は、生涯の最後の23年間を費やし、神のメッセージをすべての人々に伝えました。預言者モハマド（彼に平安あれ）は63歳で亡くなり、彼の休息場所はサウジアラビアのメディナ市にあります。彼はアッラーの人類にとって最後の使者です。

預言者モハマド（彼に平安あれ）は、アダム、ノア、アブラハム、モーセ、そしてイエス（彼らに平安あれ）の宗教であるイスラム教を再建するために来ました。次の予言は、アラビアからのモハマドの到来に関する聖書から得られます。 HABAKKUK 3：3「神（イエス）はテマンから、聖人はパラン山から来ました。セラ。彼の栄光は天を覆い、地球は彼の賞賛に満ちていました。テマンの場所はパレスチナの南東に位置する地域であり、パランはサウジアラビアのメッカの地域であり、聖者（モハマドの平和が彼にかかっている）の出身地です。



Q：「モハマディーン」、「ムハンマダニズム」、またはイスラム教のモハメダンという用語との取り決めは何ですか？

A：そのような用語はまったくありません。他の宗教はその創設者やその宗教が栄えたコミュニティにちなんで名付けられました。たとえば、キリスト教はキリストにちなんで名付けられました。ユダの部族の後のユダヤ教、そして仏の後の仏教。西洋人は、モハメッド（彼に平安あれ）の後にイスラムに「ムハンマダニズム」または「モハマディーン」という名前を誤って与え、また彼の追随者を「モハメダン」とも呼んだ。しかし、「イスラム教」と「イスラム教徒」という用語は、実際にはアッラーの最後の啓示であるクルアーンで使用されています。 （「27:31」を参照）、（「3:19」）および（「22:78」）。



Q：サタンとは誰で、アラビア語で彼の名前は何ですか？

A：サタンは邪悪な存在であり、アッラーの宗教から人類を誘惑して誤解させることに焦点を当てています。アラビア語での彼の名前はイブリスであり、「悪魔」を意味する「Shaytaan」の名前でもあります。彼は「ジン」として知られている、または英語で「スピリッツ」として一般的に知られている創造から来ています。



Q：サタンはなぜ人間を軽蔑し、破壊を望んでいるのですか？

A：サタンはアッラーのしもべである強力で際立った生き物でした。しかしアッラーがアダムを創造したとき、アッラーは天使とサタンに礼拝のしるしではなく敬意のしるしとしてアダムにひれ伏すように命じることで彼に敬意を表した。彼らのすべては、自由意志で作成され、アッラーに背くことを決定したサタンを除いて、アダムにひれ伏しました。アッラーは彼に尋ねました、「なぜあなたはアダムにひれ伏し、私の戒めに従わなかったのですか？」サタンは答えた、「私はアダムよりも優れています。あなたは彼を粘土から作成し、私を火から作成しました。」アッラーはサタンを呪い、サタンはアダムとその子孫を永遠に滅ぼすと誓いました。



Q：私はまだ混乱しています、サタンはガブリエルのような天使であり、神を崇拝する以外に自由意志はないと思いましたか？

A：誤りです。サタンが天使だったら、私たちは彼と何の問題もないでしょう。天使はアッラーの特別な創造物です。彼は神の光から天使を作成しました、そして、事をする自由意志はありませんが、神を崇拝し、彼の戒めに従います。一方、サタンはジンであり、人類と同様に、サタンと「ジンキンド」は彼らの行動に自由意志を持っています
