Islam is the most beautiful religion creating ease for mankind and giving the prospect to live a better life. Under this post, we are sharing beautiful things about Islam that penetrate in everyone’s hearts.
1. Allah invites us to have a connection with Him
Almighty Allah is so kind and merciful that he did not keep any intermediaries between Him and His creature. With the Holy Quran and five-time prayers, He gives us a possibility to directly talk with Him and ask about what we want.
Imagine if we want to meet a King of any country, it would not be possible without any appointments or reference. But Almighty Allah invites us to come and meet Him through prayers and Holy Quran.
Allah never gets tired of hearing our talks but He became happy when we call Him and surely He responds to every one of His creatures.
He says:
Call upon Me; I will respond to you.”
[Qur’an 40:60]
And He says:
Say, “What would my Lord care for you if not for your supplication? …”
[Qur’an 25: 77]
And He says:
When My servants ask you [O Prophet] about Me: I am truly near. I respond to one’s prayer when they call upon Me. So let them respond [with obedience] to Me and believe in Me, perhaps they will be guided [to the Right Way].”
[Qur’an 2: 186]
2. Beautiful names of Allah; source of peace in our lives
Almighty Allah is all perfect and He has given us 99 names to attain peace, relief, reassurance, and empowerment in our lives. His all names are perfect and these are the attributes belonging to Allah. Anything you love in life comes from the Creator of life.
You really love life and Allah is the Creator of life. You love beauty in life and Allah is the source of Beauty (Al Jameel). He is the Creator of anything beautiful that exists in the world, He is (Al Khaliq, Al Badee’, Al Mosawer). So as you like power and Almighty Allah is the source of Power (Al Qawwy).
He carries all wisdom and knowledge and some of His names are Al Aleem, Al Hakeem. Likewise, you Love and Allah is all the source of Love The Most Affectionate, The Creator and Bestower of affection (Al-Wadud). You love forgiveness, Allah is the Continuously forgiving, the Acceptor of repentance ( Al Ghafoor, At-Tawab).
You like Majesty, and Allah is The King who never dies, to Him belongs the Kingdom of the Heavens and the Earth. The King of all kings (Al Malek).
A glimpse of Allah’s majesty in Qur’an
He is Allah, other than whom there is no deity, Knower of the unseen and the witnessed. Allah is the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful. He is Allah, other than whom there is no deity, the Sovereign, the Pure, the Perfection, the Bestower of Faith, the Overseer, the Exalted in Might, the Compeller, the Superior. Exalted is Allah above whatever they associate with Him. He is Allah, the Creator, the Inventor, the Fashioner; to Him belong the best names. Whatever is in the heavens and earth is exalting Him. And He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.”
[Qur’an 59: 22-24]
3. Almighty offers forgiveness and rewards for every situation
Allah counts every deed and rewards us more than we can imagine. Allah opens opportunities every time we seek His help. The doors of His mercy and kindness never close for His creatures.
A glimpse of rewards in the light of Hadiths
Allah’s Messenger (PBUH) said,
Allah says, ‘Whosoever intended to perform a good deed but did not do it, then Allah writes it down with Himself as a complete good deed. If he intended to perform it and then did perform it, then Allah writes it down with Himself as from ten good deeds up to seven hundred times, up to many times multiplied. However, if he planned to perform an evil deed, but did not do it, then Allah writes it down with Himself as a complete good deed. And if he intended it [i.e., the evil deed] and then performed it, then Allah writes it down as one evil deed.’
[Al-Bukhari & Muslim]
So this one good deed is equal to 10 to 700 times the reward.
Also, the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said:
The five daily prayers, and from one Friday prayer to the (next), and from Ramadan to Ramadan are expiations for the (sins) committed in between (their intervals); provided the major sins are not committed.”
[Muslim]
Fasting on the day of Ashura is an expiation for the preceding year.”
[Muslim]
4. Islam gives generosity at every step
Indeed, Allah rewards us for our deeds especially on The Night of Decree/Power (Laylatul Qadr), Allah Almighty says:
The Night of Decree is better than a thousand months.”
[Qur’an 97: 3]
In this night of decree, Allah gives rewards equivalent to the worshiping of more than 83 years.
5. Guidance through our Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)
The beauty of Islam revolves around the grace and mercy of our Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). He is the most blessed person and Allah sent Muhammad (PBUH) for the guidance of mankind. At every stage of life, we get to learn kindness and forgiveness. His personality is whole beauty, mercy, and greatness that puts a great impression of humbleness.
What Famous Leaders say about Our Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)?
– George Bernard Shaw says:
“I have studied him – the wonderful man and in my opinion, far from being an anti-Christ, he must be called the Savior of Humanity. […]“
“I believe that if a man like him were to assume the dictatorship of the modern world he would succeed in solving its problems in a way that would bring it the much-needed peace and happiness.“
“Indeed, I have always held the religion of Muhammad in high estimation because of its wonderful vitality. It is the only religion which appears to me to possess that assimilating capacity to the changing phase of existence which can make itself appeal to every age.”
– Also, Reverend Reginald Bosworth Smith says:
“He was Caesar and Pope in one; but he was Pope without Pope’s pretensions, Caesar without the legions of Caesar: without a standing army, without a bodyguard, without a palace, without a fixed revenue; if ever any man had the right to say that he ruled by the right divine, it was Mohammed, for he had all the power without its instruments and without its supports.“
6. Gaining satisfaction and peace through Qur’an
Holy Quran is the greatest miracle that guides humanity in every aspect of life. You can find guidance and peace either you belong from any walk of life ethnicities, cultures, backgrounds. There is not any topic that has not been covered in Holy Qur’an.
Say, ‘If the sea were ink for [writing] the words of my Lord, the sea would be exhausted before the words of my Lord were exhausted, even if We brought the like of it as a supplement.’
[Qur’an: 18:109]
In every aspect, we find beautiful things about Islam. No matter, what stage of life you are going through, you always seek help through Islam either Holy Qur’an, Hadiths or by the study of our Prophet Muhammad’s (PBUH) life. So, Islam is all about getting ease, creating ease and spreading happiness among everyone.
