For You from My Heart.
All those who read shall pass on my words to others and those to others again; O Allah, be my witness, that I have conveyed your message to your people.
The Teaching about Protecting The right of Individuals or Minority.
Human Right.
Old interpretation; Often we hear that Government of Saudi Arabia, Iran, Taliban, Hamas and extremist Muslim treat people unfairly against minorities group such as; Jews, Christian,Shian, Atheist, gay-lesbian etc.
Modern Interpretation based on Al Quran, Government have to protect the right of individual or minority.
Allah commanded His prophets to protect the right of individuals or minority. Human Right is based on God’s laws.
As Allah said;
FROM TAURAT.
Speak up for people who can not speak for themselves. Protect the rights of all who are helpless.speak for them and be a righteous judge.protect the right of the poor and needy. Proverb 31:8.
FROM AL QURAN.
"And why should ye not fight in the cause of Allah and of those who, being weak, are ill-treated (and oppressed)? Men, women, and children, whose cry is: "Our Lord! rescue us from this town, whose people are oppressors; and raise for us from thee one who will protect; and raise for us from thee one who will help.QS. 4:75.
And do not incline towards the wrongdoers, lest the Fire should catch you, and you have no supporters other than Allah, then you should not be helped. QS 11;113.
God judges favor of the oppressed and gives them their rights.He revealed His plans to Moses and let the people of Israel see His mighty deeds. God is merciful and loving.Psalm 103 ;6.
Government should protect the right of minority according Allah's Law above:
President Obama with his power, help to gain the right of the oppressed Gay-Lesbian community in America as well as Mathin Luther King gained the right of the oppressed black Amarica in 1960.
The Teaching about Human Rights
The definition of Human Right is that everyone has the freedom of religion, expression and travel. There is no compulsion or Government has no right to impose their beliefs to others.Allah never ask His prophets to impose His laws to people.
God judge favour of oppressed and give their right. Paslm 103;6.
In studying the Secret of GOD in the Qur'an , it turns out that Human Rights are sourced from Al Quran and the Bible .
In many occasion we often hear from our religious teachers that the Human Rights it is a creation of the West . It said that those who follow the West is Haram and they are not Prophet Muhammad’s followers, but are enemy of Islam.
Indeed , Saudi Arabia , Jordan , Syeria , Iraq , Sudan , Iran , Afghanistan Pakistan refuse tha law of Human righ
They were anti- Democracy , anti Secular and Human Rights , because the King wanted a never-ending power that replaced with his or her family line .
These countries do not want to change the rules and regulation . These rules are human creation which is influenced by Satan. The system of Government is like what you see in the countries that are mostly atheist like in China, North Korea and Cuba. There is no freedom of religion, and expression, there is only the oppressive government which are not elected by people, but by force with threat.
They actually have misled Muslims around the world . They accused the system of democratic secular are come from the west.
Verily Westerners diligently seek knowledge from anywhere and including from Al Quran.
The Teaching about Women's right such as;
1. Equal right between man and women: Salary, inheritance, job opportunity, voting, right to be an imam in a mosque, right to be a leader in a society.
2. Equal right between man and women within the family and allow Muslim women to marry non-Muslims.
3. Equal right between man and women for traveling, women do not need to get permission from man.( except from parent )
4. Equal right between men and women to choose her husband.
The teaching about The Religious right.
1. Everyone has the right to choose his belief and not belief at all (atheist).
2. Everyone has freedom to worship his belief.
3. No one has the right to punish someone for their sin as we all are sinner.
4. Everyone has the right to interpret God's Books.
5. Everyone has the right to convert / revert . Such as from Islam to other religions, or vise-versa.
The right of expression.
1. Everyone has the right of freedom of speech, dressing, and freedom to express arts etc.
2. Everyone has the right of peaceful protest,
Most of Muslim Countries like Middle East, the ruler or government reject to protect the right of minorities like; Jews, Christian, Shia, Ahmadiyah, Hindu, Atheist, gay-Lesbian, and Women.
Westerner found the root of Human Right come from Bible and Al Quran as verses below;
Please readers ponder the following verse of GOD ;
The Teaching about The Freedom to choose whatever you want.
You were born with the freedom of choice
Freedom and rights are granted by this constitution to every person in this world and may not be suspended, diluted, or obstructed.
Verily we have honoured the children of Adam. We carry them on the land and the sea, and have made provision of good things for them, and have preferred them above many of those whom We created with a marked preferment. QS 17;70.
And showed him the two ways? QS 90’10,(Every one free to choose his life )
Also as ALLAH said to the Messenger of Moses;
Today I am giving you a choice between good and evil, or between a blessing and a curse, between live and death. (Deuteronomy 30; 1,15).
(You were born with the freedom of choice)
Allah had allowed Satan to deceive people until the end the day.
The Teaching about The Freedom Of Speech
All people have the right of free speech, freedom of the press, the right to assemble, the right to protest peacefully, the right to establish unions, and the right to establish political parties.
We sent Nuh 1 to his people (and said to him): “Warn your people before a painful punishment comes to them.” (1) He said, “O my people, I openly warn you (2) That you must worship Allah, and fear Him, and obey me, (3) And Allah will forgive you your sins, and will respite you to an appointed term. Indeed when Allah’s term comes, it is not deferred, if you only know!” (4) He said, “My Lord, I have called my people night and day, (5) But my call added only to their flight (from the truth). (6) Whenever I called them, so that You might forgive them, they put their fingers into their ears, and wrapped their clothes around themselves, and grew obstinate, and waxed proud in extreme arrogance. (7) Then I called them loudly, (8) And then I spoke to them in public and spoke to them in private. (Quran 71:1-9 )
The Teaching about The Freedom Of Faith
All people have the right to believe in any faith or religion they may see fit. The freedom of faith includes the establishment of temples, mosques, synagogues, churches and any other constructs used for such purpose.
There is no compulsion in Faith. The correct way has become distinct from the erroneous. Now, whoever rejects the and believes in Allah has a firm grasp on the strongest ring that never breaks. Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing. QS 2;256.
And showed him the two ways? QS 90;10.( God's way, and evil's way.)
And say, “The truth is from your Lord. Now, whoever so wills may believe and whoever so wills may deny.” QS 18;29.
And had your Lord willed, those on earth would have believed, all of them together. So, will you (O Muhammad SAW) then compel mankind, until they become believers. QS 10;99.
The Teaching about The Freedom Of Movement.
All people may travel freely throughout the public lands of the republic and exit its borders with no hindrance, restriction, or delay. Such right extends to include the movement of goods.
O My servants who believe, surely My earth is vast.QS 29;56
O mankind, We have created you from a male and a female, and made you into races and tribes, so that you may identify one another. Surely the noblest of you, in Allah’s sight, is the one who is most pious of you. Surely Allah is All-Knowing, All-Aware.QS 49;13.
The Teaching about The Right To Privacy
All people have the right to privacy against spying, trespassing, entering homes without the owner’s permission, obtaining, and/or sharing private information.
O you who believe, do not enter any houses, other than your own houses unless you seek permission and greet their inmates with Salam . That is good for you, so that you may be heedful. QS 24;27.
O you who believe, abstain from many of the suspicions. Some suspicions are sins. 5 And do not be curious (to find out faults of others), and do not backbite one another. Does one of you like that he eats the flesh of his dead brother? You would abhor it. 6 And fear Allah. Surely Allah is Most-Relenting, Very-Merciful. QS 49;12.
The Teaching about The Right To Possess Wealth
All people have the right to possess wealth, and/or land, and/or to engage in trade, development, and/or commerce.
And look what God has given to you (happiness) in the Hereafter, you must not forget from worldly pleasures and do good to others as I have done good to you. QS 28:77.
It has been made attractive for people to love the desired things; that is, women, children, hoarded heaps of gold and silver, branded horses, cattle and tillage. That is an enjoyment of the worldly life; but with Allah lies the beauty of the final resort. QS 3;14.
The teaching about the Right of Welfare
The Government is obligated to provide food, shelter and medical services to those in need. All people have the right to be granted security, education, and equal employment opportunities within the ability of the republic.
Recall) when Ibrahim said, “My Lord, make this a city of peace, and provide its people with fruits - those of them who believe in Allah and the Last Day.” He (Allah) said, “As for the one who disbelieves, I shall let him enjoy a little, then I shall drag him to the punishment of the Fire. How evil an end it is! QS 2;126.
Take sadaqah (obligatory alms) out of their wealth through which you may cleanse and purify them, and pray for them. Indeed, your prayer is a source of peace for them. And Allah is (All-) Hearing, (All-) Knowing.
QS 9;(103)
The teaching about The Equality’s right for all people
All men and women are granted equal rights and opportunities irrespective of race, colour, faith, or any other discrimination.
O mankind, We have created you from a male and a female, and made you into races and tribes, so that you may identify one another. Surely the noblest of you, in Allah’s sight, is the one who is most pious of you. Surely Allah is All-Knowing, All-Aware. QS 49;13.
The Teaching about the Right to Seek Justice
All people and/or entities have the right to demand justice against any discrimination, wrongdoing or crime that befalls them without obstruction or undue delay.
O ye who believe! stand out firmly for justice, as witnesses to Allah, even as against yourselves, or your parents, or your kin, and whether it be (against) rich or poor: for Allah can best protect both. Follow not the lusts (of your hearts), lest ye swerve, and if ye distort (justice) or decline to do justice, verily Allah is well-acquainted with all that ye do. (QS. 4; 135.
Allah enjoins to do justice and to adopt good behavior and to give relatives (their due rights), and forbids shameful acts, evil deeds and oppressive attitude. He exhorts you, so that you may be mindful.
QS 16;(90)
Allah does not like the evil words to be said openly except from anyone wronged. Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing. QS 4;148..
Allah does not forbid you as regards those who did not fight you on account of faith, and did not expel you from your homes, that you do good to them, and deal justly with them. Surely Allah loves those who maintain justice. QS 60;8
O you who believe, be steadfast for (obeying the commands of) Allah, (and) witnesses for justice. Malice against a people should not prompt you to avoid doing justice. Do justice. That is nearer to Taqwa. Fear Allah. Surely, Allah is All-Aware of what you do. QS 5;8.
The Teaching about The quality’s right between man and woman.
Old interpretation according the early state of Islam or slavery era, women received ½ inheritance than men.Because most of women stay home along day to take care her children. Women are not allowed to go out side of the house, so women can not go to work at outside of the house.
Modern Interpretation man and women receive equal inheritance.
At Prophet Muhammad (saw) time, 1400 year ago, Allah sent down to Prophet Muhammad (saw) regarding inheritance, woman will get ½ that man get it. At that time women were prohibited to go outside of her house, prohibited to go school, and women always stay at home,
Today, women and man can go to work and school. Man and women has the same as responsibility to raise their children. Therefore the rule of Allah can be adjusted
According to the rule of Allah, that man and woman are equal before Allah and law. As Allah and Prophet Muhammad said in Al Quran;
Surely, Muslim men and Muslim women, believing men and believing women, devout men and devout women, truthful men and truthful women, patient men and patient women, humble men and humble women, and the men who give sadaqah (charity) and the women who give sadaqah, and the men who fast and the women who fast, and the men who guard their private parts (against evil acts) and the women who guard (theirs), and the men who remember Allah much and the women who remember (Him) - for them, Allah has prepared forgiveness and a great reward. QS. 33:35.
So Allah punisheth hypocritical men and hypocritical women, and idolatrous men and idolatrous women. But Allah pardoneth believing men and believing women, and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. QS 33; 73.
As to the thief, male or female, cut off his or her hands: a retribution for their deed and exemplary punishment from Allah amd Allah is Exalted in Power, full of Wisdom. QS 5;38.
According to Allah’s rules above, man and woman are equal before law.
There is no discrimination of Islamic teaching. Discrimination of act is unlawful.
The Teaching about the right of wife.
Ancient interpretation; Often we hear from extremist clerics that want to uphold the ancient Arab tradition, or pre-islamic tradition in which they are proud to follow their ancient Arab tradition from one generation to next generation. They do not want to change their view about woman. Ancient Arab tradition, we find women treated as second class citizen, poverty, women were treated as slave, and a girl child were assumed to bring unlucky to family, therefore her parents kill their child.
This backward time are still continuing till now in some Arab countries.
Modern interpretation; Husband and wife has the same right in bed. Husband and wife has the right to reject to do sexual if he/she does not want to do so. There is no force. This verse QS 4;34 is not valid anymore in 21st century. Because man and woman has same opportunity to get education now. Woman is not necessary to stay home all day, she can go to work as a man. The same as the rule of inheritance, where woman will get half from a her brother. Since woman has opportunity to go to work, man and woman will receive inheritance same as a man.
Allah said.
As to those women on whose part ye fear disloyalty and ill-conduct, admonish them (first), (next), refuse to share their, beds (and last) beat them ); but if they return to obedience, seek not against them means (of annoyance): for Allah is Most High, Great (above you all).
QS 4;34
From my understanding , Prophet Muhammad never beat his wife, if the wife does not want to have sex. Prophet is tolerant and forgiving. I believe that there is an error in interpreting a word of the verse.
The best way to solve this problem is husband have to be pacient and may live separately for awhile until she feel good again. There is no force in Islam, Islam is peaceful religion.
The Teaching about the right of Gay-Lesbian or Homosexual.
Ancient interpretation; We have heard from Media that Extremist clerics from Jews, Christian and Muslim against Home sexual acts, gay-lesbian marriage and adopt children. They insult, and discriminate against Gay and Lesbian community. Even Extremist Muslim Clerics punish and kill them, in Muslim countries. Why?
They said according ancient interpretation of God’s revelation that God condemn the act of Homosexuality, and Marriage only between a man and a woman.
Modern interpretation; Based on al Quran, Allah condemned all kind of sins, from a small sins to the biggest sins. The biggest sin is not the act of homosexuality, but those who worship beside God alone. Allah never asked His prophets to ban and to punish those who makes sins, Allah asked His prophets to punish those who make crime. We all are sinner,including the scholars who know religion and including the rulers. No one is allowed to judge and to punish anybody for his sins. If any body punish anyone who made sins, it will be a war or conflict . Allah does not want His people kill one another. Allah wants all His people live in peace and harmony.
All people are sinner,
There is no one in this earth who does what is right all the time and never makes a mistake.Ecc.7:20
There is no compulsion and force in God’s religion.
Otherwise God said; love all people as God love you all.
From Bible.
Today I am giving you a choice between good and evil, or between a blessing and a curse, between life and death. (Deuteronomy 30; 1,15)
He who is unjust, let him unjust still.
He who is filthy, let him be filthy still
He who is righteous, let him be righteous still.
He who is holy,let him be holy still.(Rev;22:11).
From Al Quran.
There is no compulsion in God’s religion.QS 2;256.
And showed him the two ways? QS 90;10.( God's way, and evil's way.)
And say, “The truth is from your Lord. Now, whoever so wills may believe and whoever so wills may deny.” QS 18;29.
Whoever goes right, then he goes right only for the benefit of his ownself. And whoever goes astray, then he goes astray to his own loss. No one laden with burdens can bear another's burden.QS 17;15
And had your Lord willed, those on earth would have believed, all of them together. So, will you (O Muhammad SAW) then compel mankind, until they become believers. QS 10;99
The duty of Muhammad saw is to convey the message to people.
”your(Muhammad(saw) duty is only to convey (the Message) and on Us is the reckoning”. QS 13:40.
So based on God’s laws above, that God have given people the freedom to choose his own way of life. No one can force anybody to obey God’s law, even Government has no right to punish those who make sins, as we are all sinner.
God create people and provide the law for people. Only God has the right to judge, punish His People. All people are equal before God.
We have to distinguish between sinful act and criminal act.
Sexuality between man and man or woman and woman is not criminal act. They do based on love each other. Therefore, government has no right to punish them.
What is done by extremist clerics of various religions insulting and punishing the gay and lesbian is wrong act, evil act and misleading.
President Obama with his power, help to gain the right of the oppressed Gay-Lesbian community in America as well as Matin Luther King who gained the right of the oppressed black Amarica in 1960.
The teaching about Usury or Riba.
Ancient interpretation; Often we hear that Muslim clerics forbid non-Islamic banks. The reason is non Islamic Bank provides interest or usury. Riba or usury is prohibited by GOD. Old interpretation of Islam is wrong. Western Bank is not usury or riba according to Allah’s law in Taurat.
O ye who believe! Devour not usury, doubled and multiplied; but fear Allah; that ye may (really) prosper QS.3:130.
Those who charge usury are in the same position as those controlled by the devil's influence. This is because they claim that usury is the same as commerce. However, GOD permits commerce, and prohibits usury. Thus, whoever heeds this commandment from his Lord, and refrains from usury, he may keep his past earnings, and his judgment rests with GOD. As for those who persist in usury, they incur Hell, wherein they abide forever. [QS.2:275]
And for practicing usury, which was forbidden, and for consuming the people's money illicitly. We have prepared for the disbelievers among them painful retribution. [QS.4:161]
(Interest granted by the borrower doubled, outrageous, this is usury as forbidden by GOD Almighty)
Ancient Interpretation of Islamic Clerics is wrong and mislead Muslim all of the world.
Modern interpretation;
According to Allah’s law written in Taurat as follow;
1. If you lend money to one of my people among you who is needy, do not be like a moneylender charge him no interest.Exodus 22:21
From the above verse we can conclude that lending to someone in need (such as the poor, the sick who can not afford to pay, to pay school fees or marriage etc) but not for trade, it is prohibited to provide interest. The statute is haram
If someone borrows money for commercial purposes, for profit, then allow give interest. it is not haram. Because it will benefit both parties and beneficial to society.
The teaching about Dog and Saliva of Dog
Ancient interpretation; Often we hear from extremist Muslim clerics that people have to cleanse the saliva of dog with soil 7 times a time of Prophet Muhammad 1400 year ago. At that time, there were no soap available to cleanse the saliva of dog. Now soap and sanitizer are available in market. Do you think Allah will not allow us to use soap as cleaner?
Modern interpretation bases on Al Quran below, that we believe that we can uses soap to cleanse saliva of dog from our skin, instead of soil 7 times, and also Muslim can have dog, as long as that dog healthy.
A young man from Saudi Arabia studied at University of America near my house, one day Pet dog lick her hand, she directly went out of the house looking for soil / ground to wash the skin several times.
I ask: Why do not you wash it with soap or sanitizer in the bathroom is clean and fast. He silently laughing small, the Prophet (Hadith) told like that.
Then I interrupted and asked; not a Hadith also forbid learning to the heathen ( unbeliever), as you study at American University? He smiled and could not answer it.
A hadith explains that if our skin licked by dogs, then let the soil washed 7 times. At the time of the Messenger of Allah there is no soap or liquid chemical that can kill bacteria. The truth is washing with soap is much better and cleaner.
Likewise dog at the time of the Prophet there is no vet. At the time a dog is very dangerous and forbidden. With the development of veterinary science, dog health can be maintained well as human health.
It's funny that maintaining a healthy and well-trained dogs are prohibited. Dogs are very smart and helpful to help the police, the blind and keep the house etc.
A Quran verses explaining that the meat / animal catches a trained dog is eaten halal. Look GOD commands, at QS.5 ; 4
From 'A'ishah that the Prophet said Jibreel as pda waiting time has been determined. But Gabriel did not come in time, so the prophet throw a stick out of his hand and said, "God does not reneged on his promise, as well as the apostles." Then he turned around and found SAW dog under his bed. "O Aisha, since when anjingi it in here?" Aisha replied, "I do not know." Then he ordered that the dog SAW was issued. Then Gabriel came to the Prophet and asked, "You have an appointment and I have sat down to wait, but you do not come, why?" He replied, "The dog in the house that has stopped me. Surely we do not fit into the existing house and the dog picture." (Muslim)
Why scholars forbid dogs as guard houses, and helping the blind and help the police etc..
Even Hadith also prohibits dogs hanging pictures in homes, scholars say that angels will not enter into the house. (Meaning GOD's grace does not come into the house)
Dog on top of that are looking for prohibited items, very clever.
If the cleric is still banned dog, the cleric does not have the correct knowledge.
Students are still fanatics follow the hadith of Arab culture which is not Islamic law. Hadith of the Arab culture is not Islamic law. Muslims are fanatics like him, millions in number in the world.
The teaching about cigarette
Old interpretation; Often we hear that extremist clerics said that cigarette is not forbidden in Islam, even they do know that who smoke cigarette will fall into the dangerous disease such as lung cancer and other disease.
Modern interpretation according to guidance from Al Quran and Science that every thing that hurt and harm people is forbidden.
According to medical science that cigarettes contain a kind of poison that can damage human lungs. And easy to get cancer.
Prophet Muhammad (saw) allows them as lawful what is good and prohibits them from what is bad QS 7;157.
and do not put yourselves into destruction, and do good. Of course, Allah loves those who do good. QS 2;195
The teaching about Alcohol and pig (Halal Food )
Ancient interpretation; Often we hear that from extremist clerics that all foods are contained with alcohol and meat of pig are prohibited according their interpretation of Islam a time of Prophet Muhammad 1400 year ago. At that time, there were no science and technology available to check out animal health.
Therefore, Allah and Prophet forbid to eat the meat of pig and forbid to drink alcohol.
Ancient Muslim clerics stressed however, that Muslims should be careful not to eat in dishes previously used for serving pork or alcohol.
They ask you about intoxicants and gambling: say, "In them there is a gross sin, and some benefits for the people. But their sinfulness far outweighs their benefit." They also ask you what to give to charity: say, "The excess." GOD thus clarifies the revelations for you, that you may reflect.
He only prohibits for you the eating of animals that die of themselves (without human interference), blood, the meat of pigs, and animals dedicated to other than GOD. If one is forced (to eat these), without being malicious or deliberate, he incurs no sin. GOD is Forgiver, Most Merciful. [QS.2:173] [QS.5:3]
Verily, all meat of animals and all kind of drinks that harm health of people is forbidden by Allah’s law. Even though, government has no right to forbid people from eating the meat of pig and drinking from alcohol.
How ever, even the meat of pig and alcohol are forbidden in Islam, but Allah never asked Prophet Muhammad to punish those who still eat the meat of pig and those who drink alcohol.
All Allah's law are just warning, not compulsion. As Allah said clearly in Bible and Al Quran;
From Bible.
Today I am giving you a choice between good and evil, or between a blessing and a curse, between life and death. (Deuteronomy 30; 1,15)
He who is unjust, let him unjust still.
He who is filthy, let him be filthy still
He who is righteous, let him be righteous still.
He who is holy,let him be holy still.(Rev;22:11).
From Al Quran.
There is no compulsion in God’s religion.QS 2;256.
And showed him the two ways? QS 90;10.( God's way, and evil's way.)
.
And say, “The truth is from your Lord. Now, whoever so wills may believe and whoever so wills may deny.” QS 18;29.
Whoever goes right, then he goes right only for the benefit of his ownself. And whoever goes astray, then he goes astray to his own loss. No one laden with burdens can bear another's burden.QS 17;15
And had your Lord willed, those on earth would have believed, all of them together. So, will you (O Muhammad SAW) then compel mankind, until they become believers. QS 10;99
”your(Muhammad(saw) duty is only to convey (the Message) and on Us is the reckoning”. QS 13:40.
Modern interpretation; Based on God’s laws above, that God have given people the freedom to choose his own way of life, their own food. No one can force anybody to obey God’s law, even Government has no right to punish those who make sins, as we are all sinner.
If you want to drink alcohol for health will be fine, not sinful. It will be sinful if you get drunk and harm your health. As same as eat pig’s meat.
God create people and provide the law for people. Only God has the right to judge, punish His People. All people are equal before God.
If every Muslim and everybody follow Allah’s laws as above, people will deserve live in peace,harmony, love, respect one and other and accept the different though, ideas, and beliefs.
We site these examples for people, but no one understands them except the knowledgeable ones. QS 29;(43)
Surely, Allah does not change the condition of a people unless they change themselves.QS 13;11
The Teaching about Music.
Old interpretationl; We hear that Muslim Scholars forbid woman sing song at TV, and publick place and Muslim use Music instrument, based on a false Hadits;
"Soon there will be some people from my Ummah who justify fornication, silk, liquor and musical (Hr Bukhari )
Modern interpretation; based on Al Quran, as long as Allah do not forbid woman sing a song at TV or public palce, woman can sing a song and use music instrument even though Prophet (Pbuh) and his wives did not do it.
Progressive Islamic scholars justify / encouraging women to sing in public , on TV etc. Just as long as the lyrics are sung in the " do not " make people become bad manners .
If the lyrics are delivered it is a poem that invites to deeds of kindness , compassion , peace , moral message and the message is very nice. Even though Prophet and his wife did not do in the olden times .
Lots of enthusiasts who want to listen to good singers and renowned for entertainment and inspiration that changed the course of his life better and happier .
Can also be challenged does not exist lyrics destructive morality and lust aroused , it is such a sin .
GOD giving talent to an individual woman or man with a melodious voice and good cheer to the sick and those who stressful etc.
So singing in public or on TV is very rewarding . Each is created by GOD and useful for many people to their community should be distributed so that people can be changed the inspiration that a better fate . That is the purpose of life is a noble person who intends to improve the lives of others for the better .
May GOD bless singer who has a special talent to sing a song to people
Consider some of the video below , in which the singer has a special talent and a melodious voice and a good one , so many people are inspired with the lyrics being sung , including me personally .
Therefore, I will post some of the best singing video so that visitors can also inspirational and wise pesan2 noble of them , amen .
MUSIC can provide entertainment .
MUSIC can provide relief
MUSIC can provide inspiration / education
MUSIC can spread love GOD .
MUSIC can be changed the way a person's life better .
Melodious voice is a gift or a gift that needs to be thankful for GOD .
Therefore man enjoys listening to music from the beginning until today.
It never ceases to put out a new song .
Wonder and funny when scholars forbid women singing in public .
Does Islam forbid dancing?
Old interpretation; Often we hear from Muslim Clerics that Music is forbidden, woman is forbidden shake hand with a man, woman is forbidden go out side of her house without her brother , women and man can not walk side by side etc.
The ultra extremist Muslim like Taliban in Afghanistan shocked the world this week (Aug. 27) when they beheaded 17 people, allegedly for the crime of dancing at a mixed-gender gathering.
This is not Syarian Law, not come from God’s laws but come from ancient Arab culture.
Modern interpretation in 21st century, based on Al Quran as primary sorce of the true guidance from God, there is no mention of dancing in the Quran.
There is a story about dancing, Music in the hadith,(Muslim and Bukhari) or collected stories about Islam’s Prophet Muhammad, which are the second-most important source of guidance for Muslims. Those who believe a man (Muslim and Bukhari) than Al Quran or Allah’s laws they will go astray and fall into sinful syirik.
As long as Music and dance is conducted in good manner, make a good friendship, spread Islamic teaching, God’s words, love, compassion and a good voice will be benefits for religion and society.
Indeed, Allah enjoins justice, and the doing of good to others; and giving like kindred; and forbids indecency, and manifest evil, and wrongful transgression. He admonished you that you may take heed. (Al Quran 16:90)
Are music and dance a bad deed? No. Music and dance is a good deed.
The teaching about Coffin
Ancient interpretation; Often we hear from Muslim Clerics those who die to day should be buried today. There is no base in Al Quran, Muslim clerics follow the ancient tradition of culture. Not only Arab tradition, also other nations. Why ? because at a Muhammad’s time, there was no chemical that can keep the death people 1 to 5 day at home. The death people will smell if the death do not be buried soon as possible.
Old Muslim clerics do not have the broad knowledge yet or science.
Modern interpretation based on Al Quran, as long as Allah do not forbid to keep the death people for few day and also has some chemical that can keep the death people safely with Coffin at home will be OK. Therefore, all families and friends can pay the last respect to his / her beloved one.
We site these examples for people, but no one understands them except the knowledgeable ones. QS 29;43
Surely, Allah does not change the condition of a people unless they change themselves. QS 13;11
The teaching about prohibited using Gold for man.
Old interpretation; Often we hear from Clerics that Muslim are forbidden to use Gold-ring.
Modern interpretation; based on Al Quran a man is allowd to wear gold ring. As Allah said;
"Say, "Who prohibited the nice things ( Jewely, Gold, silver, etc.) God has created for His creatures, and the good provisions ?" Say,"such provisions are to be enjoyed in THIS life by those who BELIEVE. Moreover, the good provisions will be exclusively theirs on the Day of resurrection." We thus explain the revelations for people who know." QS 7:32
Therefore as long as Allah never forbid His people to wear gold, it means gold ring is allowed to wear it, even prophet Muhammad (saw) did not wear it.
The teaching about killing innocent people.
Old interpretation allowed to kill innocent people such as infidel, heresy, gay-lesbian, apostasy etc. as we see now in this 21st century.
Such as ; 11/9 2001 3000 innocent people died at New York,USA, and thousands Muslim Children,women died with suicide bomb in Bali, Pakistan,Iraq, London, Spain, and other countries every year.
Modern Interpretation based on Al Quran prohibited to kill innocent people even they do not share your beliefs such as heresy, atheist, gay-lesbian etc.
Ultra Extremist Muslim kill innocent people,children and women
and shouted the name of Allah; “Allahu Akbar”
WHEREAS, Allah and Prophet Muhammad Prohibited to kill innocent people and prohibited to shout the name of Allah.
if anyone slew a person―unless it be for murder or for spreading mischief in the land― it would be as if he slew the whole people: and if anyone saved a life it would be as if he saved the life of the whole people.QS 5;32
Do not used my name ( Allahu Akbar ) for evil purposes, for I, the lord your God, will punish anyone who misuses my name.(Exodus 20:7)
In fact, Allah has been punishing those who use “Allahu Akbar” to kill innocent people and children in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, 11/9 , Chen Chen, Pakistan and Egypt. Nauzubillah.
The teaching about haram woman shake hand with a man.
Ancient interpretation. Often we hear from Old scholars that woman is prohibited to shake hand with a man, just like a False Hadits below.
There is a Hadith from Ma'qil ibn Yasar, saying;
The Prophet (Peace and blessings be upon him) said, "It is better for you to be stabbed in the head with an iron needle than to touch the hand of a woman who is not permissible to you."
Mored interpretation, base on Al Quran that woman can shake hand with a man as long as he a good man, not enemy, not at a war time.
There is no a verse from Allah that explain a woman is prohibited to shake hand with a man. That Hadits is a false Hadits or an ancient Arab tradition Hadits. Ancient Arab tradition Hadits is not God’s laws.
The teaching about prohibited using the word of “Allahu Akbar” to commit violence.
Ancient interpretation; Often we hear that some extremist Muslim often utter Allahu Akbar when they commit violence and kill innocent people with bomb., or those who commit suicide to kill other people.
Modren interpretation based on Allah’s laws that written in Taurat as following;.
Do not used my name for evil purposes, for I, the lord your God, will punish anyone who misuses my name.(Exodus 20:7)
It is very clear that Allah will condemn and will punish extremist Muslim who utter loudly “ Allahu Akbar” when they commit violence.
The teaching about Polygamy.
Ancient interpretation; Often we hear that Muslim Clerics urge or allow a man to have wife more than one as Prophet Muhammad did.
Modern interpretation based on al Quran that a man should not marry woman more that one, because a husband can not be fair and will create conflict among families. Why did a man at Prophet Muhammad time a man had wife more than one?
Because of conflict and civil war among Arab tribes, many men got killed, women were not allowed to work outside of her house, women have no education, and then population of women are more than men. Therefore Allah allowed man have 4 wives. Before that a man could marry women more than 4 wives. At early state of Islam, slavery time, women were not allowed to leave her house, not allowed to work .
At 21st century, woman is allowed to get a good education, and then she is allowed to get a good job as a man.
If you fear that you will not do justice to the orphans, then, marry the women you like, in twos, in threes and in fours. But, if you fear that you will not maintain equity, then (keep to) one woman, or bondwoman you own. It will be closer to abstaining from injustice. QS 4;3.
You shall never be able to maintain real equality between wives, even though you are eager to.QS 4;129
Nowaday, if a man wants to have 4 wives, it means this husband wants to rob the happiness of children and his first wife. No woman want her husband to have two wife. No children want their father to have another woman beside their mom. To have wife more than one is not popular, not proper, and not wise any more, except his wife has died.
Therefore, Allah suggested if you can not be fair. Be better to have one wife.
I believe that according above verse QS 4;3, is that Muslim is forbidden to marry woman more than one, because no man or husband can treat his wives and children fairly. Then God warned man, if you can not treat your wives fairly, just marry one ! It is better for you.
The teaching about who made division of Islam.
Surely, those who have made divisions in their religion and turned into factions, you have nothing to do with them. Their case rests with Allah alone; then He will tell them what they have been doing. QS 6:(159)
Verily your Lord knows best who has strayed from his way, and He is well aware of those who are on the right path. QS 6:(7)
Do not you say what you do not do it?
O you who believe, why do you say what you do not do? 1 (2It is severely hateful in Allah’s sight that you say what you do not do.QS 61 (3)
