As Salamu Alaikum
Sorry for being late to respond your PM, full of hopes . Unable to manage things properly around me.-- Insha Allah, shall sort out soon and be regular here.
Anyways, i had notes about the attribute of Allah - Al-Azeez
Bismillah Allah azza wa jal says in surah Fussilat ayah 41: وَإِنَّهُ لَكِتَابٌ عَزِيزٌ And verily, it is surely an �Azeez Book Allah ta�ala emphasizes twice in this ayah to show that this Book is �Azeez. �Inna� in the beginning and the �laam� infront of �Kitaab�. This Book is �Azeez in three ways:
1-Qadr -it is a respectable and honorable Book. 2- Ghalbah- a Book that is mighty. It is ghaalib (overpowering) with regards to its proof. It overpowers everything else. 3- Imtina�aa- Imtina�aa is to not let anything harm you. It is a strong and firm Book. Allah ta�ala explains in the next ayah how the Qur�an is �Azeez: لَّا يَأْتِيهِ الْبَاطِلُ مِن بَيْنِ يَدَيْهِ وَلَا مِنْ خَلْفِهِ Falsehood cannot come to it from before it or behind it. (41:42) From before and behind means baatil cannot approach or enter it. Baatil refers to: 1- that which is not part of the Qur�an cannot enter it and that which is in the Qur�an cannot be taken out. 2- According to Qatadah, Baatil refers to Shaytan. Shaytan cannot alter it or change its wahy (revelation). 3- taktheeb: denial. Taktheeb coming from front of it means a book from the past that contradicts it. There is no scripture from the past that contradicts it. Taktheeb coming from behind it means no book in the future can refute, abrogate or nullify it. Baatil cannot approach it because it is: تَنزِيلٌ مِّنْ حَكِيمٍ حَمِيدٍ (it is) sent down by the All-Wise, Worthy of all praise. (41:42) It is a book from Allah azza wa jal. Tanzeel is a gradual revelation. He is: Hakeem: He ta�ala has made the Book in such a style, with such meanings, evidence and examples that no baatil cannot enter it. Hameed: He ta�ala is Praiseworthy because He revealed such a book. Only He could reveal a Book that is applicable in every era, for every time and for everyone. Despite many efforts to change the Qur�an since its revelation, nothing can be altered or added to it because it is revealed from Al Hakeem Al Hameed. |

Asslamu Alaikum sisters I wonder about something and hope you can answer me. Is it right the Christians do not say Allah??? They say only God? Is not Allah is God in their believes? please reply about this part. I have heard about it but not sure. If it is true, then we all have to use only Allah to differ from them.

Bisillahi ArRahman Al-Raheem Hadith #1"Actions are but by intentions"'Umar b. al-Khattab narrated that the Prophet (S) said: Deeds are [a result] only of the intentions [of the actor], and an individual is [rewarded] only according to that which he intends. Therefore, whosoever has emigrated for the sake of Allah and His messenger, then his emigration was for Allah and His messenger. Whosoever emigrated for the sake of worldly gain, or a woman [whom he desires] to marry, then his emigration is for the sake of that which [moved him] to emigrate." Narrated by Bukhari and Muslim.Al-Shafi'i said that it comprises a third of all religious knowledge. Ahmad b. Hanbal said that the principles axes of Islam, in terms of hadith, are three: the hadith of 'Umar that "deeds are judged only by intention,....." The first sentence of the hadith, "innama al-a'mal bi-l-niyyat," is a declaration that the voluntary actions of a person are a consequence only of that person's purpose to perform the act or bring it into existence ("la taqa' illa 'an qasd min al-'amil huwa sabab 'amaliha wa wujudiha.").? The second sentence, "wa innama li-kulli imri` ma nawa,"is a declaration of religion's judgment of the act in question ("ikbar 'an al-hukm al-shar'i").? Thus, if the intention motivating an act is good, then performance of the act is good and the person receives its reward.. As for the corrupt intention, the action it motivates is corrupt, and the person receives punishment. If the intention motivating the act is permissible, then the action is permissible, and the actor receives neither reward nor punishment. Therefore, acts in themselves, their goodness, foulness or neutrality, from the perspective of religion, are judged according to the actor's intention that caused their existence. Despite the
importance of having a good niyya, and its centrality to Islam, it is among
the most difficult things to achieve. Thus, Sufyan al-Thawri is reported to have said, "Nothing is more difficult for me to treat than my intention (niyya) for indeed it turns on me!."? Yusuf b. Asbat said, "Purifying one's intention from corruption is more difficult for persons than lengthy exertion (ijtihad).".. ________________________________________________________ An act that is not done sincerely for the sake of Allah may be divided into parts: The first is that which is solely for display (riya) such that its sole motivation is to be seen by others in order to
achieve a goal in the profane world, as was the case of the Hypocrites in
their performance of prayer, where Allah described them as "When they join
prayer, they go lazily [with the purpose] of displaying [themselves] to the
people." Imam Ahmad reports that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "When Allah gathers the first [of His creation] and the last [of His creation] for that Day for which there is no doubt, a crier will call out, 'Whosoever associated with Me another in his actions let him seek his reward from other than Allah, for Allah is the most independent of any association (fa-inna allaha aghna al-sharaka` 'an al-shirk)." Al-Nasa`i reported that a man asked the Prophet (peace be upon him), "What is your opinion of one who fights [in the way of Allah] seeking fame [in the profane world] and reward [from Allah]?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) replied, "He receives nothing [by way of reward from Allah'." The Prophet (peace be upon him) repeated this three times and then said, "Allah accepts no deeds other than those that are performed solely for His sake and by which His face is sought." In conclusion, the saying of Sahl b. 'Abd Allah is most beautiful in this regard: Nothing is more difficult on a person than sincerity because the person gains no share of that [act]. Ibn 'Uyayna said that Mutarrif b. 'Abdallah would repeat the following prayer,
"O Allah! I seek Your forgiveness for that which I sought your repentance but
to which I subsequently returned; I seek Your forgiveness from that which I
rendered to You from my self, but then, I was not able to
maintain faithfully; and, I seek Your forgiveness from that by which I
claimed I desired your Face but my heart became corrupted with that which
I did." Ibn Rajab's Commentary on Imam Nawawi's Forty Hadith

Just wanted to "drop a post" to say I'm back - inshAllah.
I agree with Sis Seeks, My Protestant Christian friend in Pakistan uses the same word "Allah" when she refers to God. She doesnt say "God" or "Jesus" or anyother thing. |
