Can
we find an explanation of the great universe? Is there any convincing
interpretation of the secret of existence? We realize that no family can
function properly without a responsible head, that no city can
prosperously exist without sound administration, and that no state can
survive without a leader of some kind. We also realize that nothing
comes into being on its own. Moreover, we observe that the universe
exists and functions in the most orderly manner, and that it has
survived for hundreds of thousand of years. Can we then say that all
this is accidental and haphazard? Can we attribute the existence of man
and the whole world to mere chance.
Man
represents only a very small portion of the great universe. And if he
can make plans and appreciate the merits of planning, then his own
existence and the survival of the universe must also be a planned
policy. This means that there is an extraordinary power to bring things
into being and keep them moving in order.
In
the world then must be a great force in action to keep everything in
order. In the beautiful nature there must be a Great creator who creates
the most charming pieces of art produces every thing for a special
purpose in life. The deeply enlightened people recognize this creator
and call him Allah "God". He is not a man because no man can create or
make another man. He is not an animal, nor he is a plant. He is neither
an Idol nor is He a statue of any kind because non of these things can
make itself or create anything else. He is different from all these
things because he is the maker and keeper of them all. The maker of
anything must be different from and greater than things which he makes.
There
are various ways to know God "ALLAH'' and there are many things to tell
about him. The great wonders and impressive marvels of the world are
like open books in which we can read about God. Besides, God Himself
comes to our aid through the many Messengers and revelations He has sent
down to man. These Messengers and revelations tell us everything we
need to know about God.
The
complete acceptance of the teachings and guidance of God 'Allah' as
revealed to His Messengers Muhammad is the religion of Islam. Islam
enjoins faith in the oneness and sovereignty of Allah, which makes man
aware of meaningfulness of the Universe and of his place in it. This
belief frees him from all fears and superstitions by making him
conscious of the presence of the Almighty Allah and of man's obligations
towards Him. This faith must be expressed and tested in actions, faith
alone is not enough. Belief in one God requires that we look upon all
humanity as one family under the universal Omnipotence of God the
Creator and Nourisher of all. Islam rejects the idea of chosen people,
making belief in God and good actions the only way to heaven. Thus, a
direct relationship in established with God, without any intercessor.

is not a new religion. It is, in essence, the same message and guidance
which Allah revealed to all Prophets. Adam, Noah, Abraham, Ismael,
David, Moses and Jesus (PBUT). But the message which was revealed to
Prophet Mohammed (PBUT) is Islam in its comprehensive, complete and
final form.
The
Quran is the last revealed word of Allah and the basic source of
Islamic teachings and laws. The Quran deals with the basis of creeds,
morality, history of humanity, worship, knowledge, wisdom, God-man
relationship, and human relationship in all aspects. Comprehensive
teaching on which, can be built sound systems of social justice,
economics, politics, legislation, jurisprudence, law and international
relations, are important contents of the Quran. Hadith, the teachings,
sayings and actions of Prophet Mohammed (PBUT), meticulously reported
and collected by his devoted companions. Explained and elaborated the
Quranic verses.
