1. Respect and honor all human beings irrespective of their religion, color, race, sex, language, status, property, birth, profession/job and so on
[Quran translation:17/70]
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.
“O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of
a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes,
that ye may know each other not that ye may despise
(each other). Verily the most honored of you in the sight
of Allah is (he who is) the most righteous of you. And
Allah has full knowledge and is well acquainted
(with all things).” (Quran 49:13) (Translation)
The Miracle and Challenge of the Qur'an
Muslims are taught that throughout the ages, Allah Almighty has sent a prophet to every nation as a warner and a bearer of glad tidings.
"Verily! We have sent you (O Muhammad) with the Truth, a bearer of glad tidings and a warner; and there is not a nation but a warner has passed among them."
[Qur'an, 35 :24]
"Verily, this Quran guides (humanity) to that which is most just."
[Noble Quran 17:9]
"Verily, I revealed the Dhikr and verily I will preserve it."
[Noble Quran 15:9]
"By Time, Indeed, mankind is in loss, Except for those who have believed and done righteous deeds and advised each other to truth and advised each other to patience."
[Qur'an, Al-Asr 103]
"Do they not then consider the Qur'an carefully? Had it been from other than Allah, they would surely have found therein much contradiction and error."
[Qur'an, An-Nisa 4:82]
"We shall show them Our signs on the horizons and within themselves until it will become clear to them that it is the Truth. Does it not suffice that your Lord is Witness over all things?"
Qur'an:41:53.

God is not Jesus, and Jesus is not God.2 Even Jesus himself rejected this. God has said in the Quran:
Indeed, they have disbelieved who have said, “God is the Messiah (Jesus), son of Mary.” The Messiah said, “Children of Israel, worship God, my Lord and your Lord. Whoever associates partners in worship with God, then God has forbidden Paradise for him, and his home is the Fire (Hell). For the wrongdoers,3 there will be no helpers.”
(Quran, 5:72)
God is not a trinity. God has said in the Quran:
Indeed, they disbelieve who say, “God is the third of three (in a trinity),” when there is no god but one God. If they desist not from what they say, truly, a painful punishment will befall the disbelievers among them. Would they not rather repent to God and ask His forgiveness? For God is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. The Messiah (Jesus), son of Mary, was no more than a messenger...

Say: O People of the Scripture! Come to an agreement between us and you: that we shall worship none but Allah, and that we shall ascribe no partner unto Him, and that none of us shall take others for lords beside Allah. And if they turn away, then say: Bear witness that we are they who have surrendered (unto Him).
Quran Translation:3:64
Say (O Muslims), "We believe in Allah and that which has been sent down to us and that which has been sent down to Ibrahim (Abraham), Isma'il (Ishmael), Ishaq (Isaac), Ya'qub (Jacob), and to Al-Asbat [the offspring of the twelve sons of Ya'qub (Jacob)], and that which has been given to Musa (Moses) and 'Îsa (Jesus), and that which has been given to the Prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and to Him we have submitted
Hadhith
All mankind is from Adam and Eve, an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over black nor a black has any superiority over white except by piety and good action.
O People, it is true that you have certain rights with regard to your women, but they also have rights over you. Remember that you have taken them as your wives only under Allah’s trust and with His permission. If they abide by your right then to them belongs the right to be fed and clothed in kindness. Do treat your women well and be kind to them for they are your partners and committed helpers.

Prophet Muhammad (SAWS)last sermon[English Translation]
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
All the praises and thanks be to Allah, the Lord of the Alamin (mankind, jinn and all that exists).
The Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

Quran With Hindi Translation - Recitation by Sheikh Abdur Rehman Al Sudes : Hindi Voice By Younus Khan
The Five Pillars of Islam
The Five Pillars of Islam
1. TESTIMONY (Shahadah), the first basic foundation,
“La ilaha illa Allah, Muhammadur rasoolu Allah.” This saying means “There is no true god (deity) but God (Allah),1 and Muhammad is the Messenger (Prophet) of God.”
This declaration is the basis of all actions in Islam, and the other basic duties follow this affirmation.
Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him) said:
'Forgive him who wrongs you. Join him who cuts you off
Do good to him who does evil to you and
speak the truth even if it be against yourself.'
Invite (all) to the Way of thy Lord with wisdom and beautiful preaching; and argue with them in ways that are best and most gracious: for thy Lord knoweth best, who have strayed from His Path, and who receive guidance.
[Soorat-un-Nahi aya 125].
They only are the (true) believers whose hearts feel fear when Allah is mentioned, and when His revelations are recited unto them they increase their faith, and who trust in their Lord;
Who establish worship and spend of that We have bestowed on them.
Those are they who are in truth believers. For them are grades (of honour) with their Lord, and pardon, and a bountiful provision.
Q8: 2 to 4
This (Qur'an) is a clear insight and evidence for mankind, and a guidance and a mercy for people who have Faith with certainty.
Quran Translation 45:20
أشهد أن لا إله إلاَّ الله و أشهد أن محمد رسول الله
"ašhadu an lā ilāha illā-llāh, wa ašhadu anna muammadan abduhu wa rasūlu-llāh".
"I bear witness that there is no deity (none truly to be worshipped) but, Allah, and I bear witness that Mohammad is his slave and messenger"
"... and take a provision (with you) for the journey (to Hajj), but the best of provisions is right conduct. So fear Me, o ye that are wise. " Qur'an 2:197
http://www.islamicity.com/mosque/hajj/
"The month of Ramadan is the one in which the Quran was sent down, a guidance for mankind, clear proofs for the guidance, the Criterion; so whoever amongst you witnesses this month, let him fast it." (cf. Surah al-Baqarah 2:185)
"They ask you (O Mohammed) what they should spend in charity. Say,'Whatever you spend with a good heart, giving it to relatives, orphans, the helpless and travellers in need. Whatever good you do, God is aware of it.'"
[Al-Qur'an 2:215]
Remember, the prophet’s food intake was very light and he (saws) said: “The son of Adam does not fill any vessel worse than his stomach. It is sufficient for the son of Adam to eat a few mouthfuls, to keep him going. If he must do that (fill his stomach), then let him fill one third with food, one third with drink and one third with air.” Narrated by al-Tirmidhi (1381), Ibn Maajah (3349); classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in al-Silsilah al-Saheehah (2265).”
bn 'Abbas narrates "that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) was the most generous person, and he would be at his most generous in Ramadan because Jibril would come to him every night and he would rehearse the Qur'an with him." (Sahih al-Bukhari, Eng. trans. 6/486)

2. COMPULSORY PRAYER (Salah)
Muslims perform five prayers a day. Each prayer does not take more than a few minutes to perform. Prayer in Islam is a direct link between the worshipper and God. There are no intermediaries between God and the worshipper.
http://www.iqrasense.com/islamic-topics/achieving-khushu-and-a-positive-state-of-mind.html
Quran (interpretation of the meaning),
“Successful indeed are the believers, those who offer their salah (prayers) with all solemnity and full submissiveness” [Surah al-Mu’minoon 23:1-2]”.

3. CHARITY (Zakah) is a compulsory payment from a Muslim's annual savings. It can only be spent on helping the poor, the needy, and the oppressed, and for the general upliftment of society. Zakah is one of the fundamental principles of Islamic economy, which ensures an equitable society where everyone has a right to contribute and share.
4. FASTING (Sawm) is the annual obligatory fasting during each day of the month of Ramadan - the ninth month of the Islamic calendar. One must refrain from eating, drinking, smoking, and sex, from dawn to sunset. Sawm develops a believer's moral and spiritual standard and keeps them away from selfishness, greed, extravagance and other vices. Sawm is an annual training program that increases a Muslim's determination to fulfill their obligation to the Almighty Lord.
5. PILGRIMAGE (Hajj) is an annual event, obligatory on those Muslims who can afford to undertake it, at least once in their lifetime. It is a pilgrimage (journey) to the "House of Allah" (Al-Ka'bah) in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, in the twelfth month of the Islamic calendar. Hajj symbolizes the unity of humankind; Muslims from every race and nationality assemble together in equality and fraternity to worship their Lord.
Say, “He is God, the One.
God, to Whom the creatures turn for their needs.
He begets not, nor was He begotten,
and there is none like Him.” (Quran, 112:1-4)
No one has the right to be invoked, supplicated, prayed to, or shown any act of worship, but God alone.
God alone is the Almighty, the Creator, the Sovereign, and the Sustainer of everything in the whole universe. He manages all affairs. He stands in need of none of His creatures, and all His creatures depend on Him for all that they need. He is the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing, and the All-Knowing. In a perfect manner, His knowledge encompasses all things, the open and the secret, and the public and the private. He knows what has happened, what will happen, and how it will happen. No affair occurs in the whole world except by His will. Whatever He wills is, and whatever He does not will is not and will never be. His will is above the will of all the creatures. He has power over all things, and He is able to do everything. He is the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, and the Most Beneficent. In one of the sayings of the Prophet Muhammad
, we are told that God is more merciful to His creatures than a mother to her child.1 God is far removed from injustice and tyranny. He is All-Wise in all of His actions and decrees. If someone wants something from God, he or she can ask God directly without asking anyone else to intercede with God for him or her.
God is not Jesus, and Jesus is not God.2 Even Jesus himself rejected this. God has said in the Quran:
Indeed, they have disbelieved who have said, “God is the Messiah (Jesus), son of Mary.” The Messiah said, “Children of Israel, worship God, my Lord and your Lord. Whoever associates partners in worship with God, then God has forbidden Paradise for him, and his home is the Fire (Hell). For the wrongdoers,3 there will be no helpers.”
(Quran, 5:72)
God is not a trinity. God has said in the Quran:
Indeed, they disbelieve who say, “God is the third of three (in a trinity),” when there is no god but one God. If they desist not from what they say, truly, a painful punishment will befall the disbelievers among them. Would they not rather repent to God and ask His forgiveness? For God is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. The Messiah (Jesus), son of Mary, was no more than a messenger...

Allah (SWT) says:
"Therefore remember Me (by praying, glorifying), I will remember you, and be grateful to Me (for My countless Favours on you) and never be ungrateful to Me."
"O you who believe! Seek help in patience and As-Salat (the prayer). Truly! Allah is with As-Sabirun (the patient)."
Quran Translation 2:152,153.
And your Ilah (God) is One Ilah (God - Allah), La ilaha illa Huwa (there is none who has the right to be worshipped but He), the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
Quran 2:163
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
All Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds,
The Beneficent, the Merciful.
Master of the Day of Judgment,
Thee (alone) we worship; Thee (alone) we ask for help.
Show us the straight path,
Quran Tran., sursh Fatia
The path of those whom Thou hast favoured;
Not the (path) of those who earn Thine anger
nor of those who go astray.
Allah! There is no deity save Him, the Alive, the Eternal. Neither slumber nor sleep overtaketh Him. Unto Him belongeth whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is in the earth. Who is he that intercedeth with Him save by His leave? He knoweth that which is in front of them and that which is behind them, while they encompass nothing of His knowledge save what He will. His throne includeth the heavens and the earth, and He is never weary of preserving them. He is the Sublime, the Tremendous.
Quran Tran., 2:256
He is Allah, than Whom there is no other Allah, the Knower of the Invisible and the Visible. He is the Beneficent, Merciful.
He is Allah, than Whom there is no other Allah, the Sovereign Lord, the Holy One, Peace, the Keeper of Faith, the Guardian, the Majestic, the Compeller, the Superb. Glorified be Allah from all that they ascribe as partner (unto Him).
He is Allah, the Creator, the Shaper out of naught, the Fashioner. His are the most beautiful names. All that is in the heavens and the earth glorifieth Him, and He is the Mighty, the Wise.

TASAWWUF
THE NATURE OF TASAWWUF
The department of the Shari'at relating to A'maal-e Baatini (esoteric acts or states of the heart) is called Tasawwuf and Sulook; and, the department of the Shari'at relating to A'maal-e Zaahiri (exoteric acts or physical acts) is called Fiqh. The subject matter dealt with by Tasawwuf is Tahzeeb-e Akhlaaq or the adornment of character while the motive of this branch of the Shari'at is the attainment of Divine Pleasure. The method of acquisition of this Divine Pleasure is total obedience to the commands of the Shari'at.
Tasawwuf in fact is the rooh (soul) and state of perfection of the Deen. Its function is to purify the Baatin (the heart) of man from the lowly bestial attributes of lust, calamities of the tongue, anger, malice, jealousy, love of the world, love for fame, niggardliness, greed, ostentation, vanity, deception, etc. At the same time it (Tasawwuf) aims at the adornment of the heart with the lofty attributes of repentance, perseverance, gratefulness, fear of Allah, hope, abstention, Tauheed, trust, love sincerity, truth, meditation, reckoning, contemplation, etc. In this way, attention towards Allah Ta'ala is inculcated in man. This is in fact the purpose of life. Tasawwuf orTareeqat is therefore not at all negatory of the Deen and Shari'at. On the contrary it is incumbent for every Muslim to become a Sufi(one who follows the path of Tasawwuf). Minus Tasawwuf, a Muslim cannot truly be described as a perfect Muslim.
"ašhadu an lā ilāha illā-llāh, wa ašhadu anna muammadan abduhu wa rasūlu-llāh".
"I bear witness that there is no deity (none truly to be worshipped) but, Allah, and I bear witness that Mohammad is his slave and messenger"

Bok 73, Number 8:
Narrated Anas bin Malik:
Allah's Apostle (saw) mentioned the greatest sins or he was asked
about the greatest sins.
He (saw)said, "To join partners in worship with Allah;
to kill a soul which Allah has forbidden to kill; and to be undutiful
or unkind to one's parents." The Prophet (saw) added,
"Shall I inform you of the biggest of the great sins?
That is the forged statement or the false witness.
" Shu'ba (the sub-narrator) states that most probably the Prophet (saw) said,
"the false witness."

What is Islam ?
Islam is not a new religion, but the same truth that God revealed through
all His prophets to every people.For a fifth of the world's population,
Islam is both a religion and a complete way of life. Muslims follow
a religion of peace, mercy, and forgiveness, and the majority have nothing
to do with the extremely grave events which have come to be associated
with their faith.
Who are the Muslims?
Who are the Muslims?
One billion people from a vast range of races, nationalities and cultures across
the globe - from the southern Philippines to Nigeria - are united by their common
Islamic faith. About 18% live in the Arab world; the world's largest Muslim
community is in Indonesia; substantial parts of Asia and most of Africa are Muslim,
while significant minorities are to be found
in the Soviet Union, China, North and South America, and Europe.

What do Muslims believe?
What do Muslims believe?
Muslims believe in One, Unique, Incomparable God;
in the Angels created by Him; in the prophets through whom His
revelations were brought to mankind; in the Day of Judgement
and individual accountability for actions; in God's complete authority
over human destiny and in life after death. Muslims believe in a chain
of prophets starting with Adam and including Noah, Abraham, Ishmael,
Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Job, Moses, Aaron, David, Solomon, Elias, Jonah,
John the Baptist, and Jesus, peace be upon them. But God's final message
to man, a reconfirmation of the eternal message and a summing-up of
all that has gone before was revealed to
the Prophet Muhammad through Gabriel.

How does someone become a Muslim?
How does someone become a Muslim?
Simply by saying 'there is no god apart from God,
and Muhammad is the Messenger of God.
' By this declaration the believer announces his or her faith in
all God's messengers, and the scriptures they brought.
· What does 'Islam' mean?
· What does 'Islam' mean?
The Arabic word 'Islam' simply means 'submission',
and derives from a word meaning 'peace'.
In a religious context it means complete submission to the will of God.
'Mohammedanism' is thus a misnomer because it suggests
that Muslims worship Muhammad rather than
God. 'Allah' is the Arabic name for God, which is used by
Arab Muslims and Christians alike.
· Do Islam and Christianity have different origins?
· Do Islam and Christianity have different origins?
No. Together with Judaism, they go back to the prophet and patriarch
Abraham, and their three prophets are directly descended from his sons,
Muhammad from the eldest, Ishmael, and Moses and Jesus from Isaac.
Abraham established the settlement which today is the city of Makkah,
and built the Ka'ba towards which
all Muslims turn when they pray.
· What is the Ka'ba?
· What is the Ka'ba?
The Ka'ba is the place of worship which God commanded Abraham
and Ishmael to build over four thousand years ago. The building was
constructed of stone on what many believe was the original site of
a sanctuary established by Adam. God commanded Abraham to summon
all mankind to visit this place, and when pilgrims go there today they say
'At Thy service, O Lord', in response to Abraham's summons.

What is the Quran?
The Quran is a record of the exact words revealed by God through
the Angel Gabriel to the Prophet Muhammad. It was memorized
by Muhammad and then dictated to his Companions, and written down
by scribes, who cross-checked it during his lifetime.
Not one word of its 114 chapters, Suras, has been changed over
the centuries, so that the Quran is in every detail the unique and miraculous
text which was revealed to Muhammad fourteen centuries ago.

The Quran, the last revealed Word of God, is the prime source of every

it provides guidelines for a just society, proper human conduct and an
equitable economic system.

Some Basic Islamic Beliefs
Some Basic Islamic Beliefs
1) Belief in God:
1) Belief in God:
Muslims believe in one, unique, incomparable God, Who has no son nor partner, and that none has the right to be worshipped but Him alone. He is the true God, and every other deity is false. He has the most magnificent names and sublime perfect attributes. No one shares His divinity, nor His attributes. In the Quran, God describes Himself:
Say, “He is God, the One. God, to Whom the creatures turn for their needs. He begets not, nor was He begotten, and there is none like Him.”
(Quran, 112:1-4)
No one has the right to be invoked, supplicated, prayed to, or shown any act of worship, but God alone.
God alone is the Almighty, the Creator, the Sovereign, and the Sustainer of everything in the whole universe. He manages all affairs. He stands in need of none of His creatures, and all His creatures depend on Him for all that they need. He is the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing, and the All-Knowing. In a perfect manner, His knowledge encompasses all things, the open and the secret, and the public and the private. He knows what has happened, what will happen, and how it will happen. No affair occurs in the whole world except by His will. Whatever He wills is, and whatever He does not will is not and will never be. His will is above the will of all the creatures. He has power over all things, and He is able to do everything. He is the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, and the Most Beneficent. In one of the sayings of the Prophet Muhammad
, we are told that God is more merciful to His creatures than a mother to her child.1 God is far removed from injustice and tyranny. He is All-Wise in all of His actions and decrees. If someone wants something from God, he or she can ask God directly without asking anyone else to intercede with God for him or her.
God is not Jesus, and Jesus is not God.2 Even Jesus himself rejected this. God has said in the Quran:
Indeed, they have disbelieved who have said, “God is the Messiah (Jesus), son of Mary.” The Messiah said, “Children of Israel, worship God, my Lord and your Lord. Whoever associates partners in worship with God, then God has forbidden Paradise for him, and his home is the Fire (Hell). For the wrongdoers,3 there will be no helpers.”
(Quran, 5:72)
God is not a trinity. God has said in the Quran:
Indeed, they disbelieve who say, “God is the third of three (in a trinity),” when there is no god but one God. If they desist not from what they say, truly, a painful punishment will befall the disbelievers among them. Would they not rather repent to God and ask His forgiveness? For God is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. The Messiah (Jesus), son of Mary, was no more than a messenger...
(Quran, 5:73-75)
Islam rejects that God rested on the seventh day of the creation, that He wrestled with one of His angels, that He is an envious plotter against mankind, or that He is incarnate in any human being. Islam also rejects the attribution of any human form to God. All of these are considered blasphemous. God is the Exalted. He is far removed from every imperfection. He never becomes weary. He does not become drowsy nor does he sleep.
The Arabic word Allah means God (the one and only true God who created the whole universe). This wordAllah is a name for God, which is used by Arabic speakers, both Arab Muslims and Arab Christians. This word cannot be used to designate anything other than the one true God. The Arabic word Allah occurs in the Quran about 2700 times. In Aramaic, a language related closely to Arabic and the language that Jesus habitually spoke,4 God is also referred to as Allah.
2) Belief in the Angels:
2) Belief in the Angels:
Muslims believe in the existence of the angels and that they are honored creatures. The angels worship God alone, obey Him, and act only by His command. Among the angels is Gabriel, who brought down the Quran to Muhammad
.
3) Belief in God’s Revealed Books:
3) Belief in God’s Revealed Books:
Muslims believe that God revealed books to His messengers as proof for mankind and as guidance for them. Among these books is the Quran, which God revealed to the Prophet Muhammad
God has guaranteed the Quran’s protection from any corruption or distortion. God has said:
Indeed, We have sent down the Quran, and surely We will guard it (from corruption). (Quran, 15:9)
4) Belief in the Prophets and Messengers of God:
4) Belief in the Prophets and Messengers of God:
Muslims believe in the prophets and messengers of God, starting with Adam, including Noah, Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, and Jesus (peace be upon them). But God’s final message to man, a reconfirmation of the eternal message, was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad
. Muslims believe that Muhammad is the last prophet sent by God, as God has said:
Muhammad is not the father of any one of your men, but he is the Messenger of God and the last of the prophets...
(Quran, 33:40)
Muslims believe that all the prophets and messengers were created human beings who had none of the divine qualities of God.
5) Belief in the Day of Judgment:
5) Belief in the Day of Judgment:
Muslims believe in the Day of Judgment (the Day of Resurrection) when all people will be resurrected for God’s judgment according to their beliefs and deeds.
6) Belief in Al-Qadar:
6) Belief in Al-Qadar:
Muslims believe in Al-Qadar, which is Divine Predestination, but this belief in Divine Predestination does not mean that human beings do not have freewill. Rather, Muslims believe that God has given human beings freewill. This means that they can choose right or wrong and that they are responsible for their choices.
The belief in Divine Predestination includes belief in four things: 1) God knows everything. He knows what has happened and what will happen. 2) God has recorded all that has happened and all that will happen. 3) Whatever God wills to happen happens, and whatever He wills not to happen does not happen. 4) God is the Creator of everything.
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.[22] Allah is He, than Whom there is no other god; Who knows (all things) both secret and open; He, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.[23] Allah is He, than Whom there is no other god; the Sovereign, the Holy One, the Source of Peace (and Perfection), the Guardian of Faith, the Preserver of Safety, the Exalted in Might, the Irresistible, the Supreme: Glory to Allah! (High is He) above the partners they attribute to Him.[24] He is Allah, the Creator, the Evolver, the Bestower of Forms (or Colours). To Him belong the Most Beautiful Names: whatever is in the heavens and on earth,doth declare His Praises and Glory; and He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.

‘Violent Reaction has no place in Islam’,The Holy Quran clearly declares that killing an innocent person is equivalent to killing the whole humanity.
http://www.ummid.com/malegaon/malegaon_islam_rejects_reaction_theory.htm
As long as Islam is concerned it has nothing to do with violence or any kind of terrorist activities and it has been reiterated ample number of times. The Holy Quran clearly declares that killing an innocent person is equivalent to killing the whole humanity. Then how can anyone term Islam as the religion that promote or encourage violence or extremism?
Even if someone with Muslim identities indulges in any kind of violent activities that harm the innocents, their acts are against the principles of Islam there certainly no doubt in this. While committing the crimes they are not following Islam. Far from representing Islam, the moment they resort to violence that kills innocent lives they cease to be a Muslim.
Most Muslim jurists agree on the principal objectives of sharia: the protection and promotion of life, religion, intellect, property, family and dignity.
For centuries, most Islamic scholars around the world have agreed that Muslims must follow the laws of the land in which they live. This principle was established by the prophet Muhammad in A.D. 614-615, when he sent some of his followers to be protected by the Christian king of Abyssinia, where they co-existed peacefully.
Suicide is forbidden.
Allah (swt) says in the Quran:
" if anyone saves a life, it shall be as though he had saved the lives of all mankind." (5:32)
"O ye who believe!... [do not] kill yourselves, for truly Allah has been to you Most Merciful. If any do that in rancour and injustice, soon shall We cast him into the Fire..." (Qur'an 4:29-30).
"O ye who believe! Remain steadfast for Allah, bearing witness to justice. Do not allow your hatred for others make you swerve to wrongdoing and turn you away from justice. Be just; that is closer to true piety."- Qur'an, Surah al-Maidah (5:8)
"And fight in the way of Allah those who fight you. But do not transgress limits. Truly Allah loves not the transgressors."- Qur'an, Surah Al-Baqarah (2:190)
In Islam, several things are clear:
· Suicide is forbidden. "O ye who believe!... [do not] kill yourselves, for truly Allah has been to you Most Merciful. If any do that in rancour and injustice, soon shall We cast him into the Fire..." (Qur'an 4:29-30).
· The taking of life is allowed only by way of justice (i.e. the death penalty for murder), but even then, forgiveness is better. "Nor take life - which Allah has made sacred - except for just cause..." (17:33).
· In pre-Islamic Arabia, retaliation and mass murder was commonplace. If someone was killed, the victim's tribe would retaliate against the murderer's entire tribe. This practice was directly forbidden in the Qur'an (2:178-179). Following this statement of law, the Qur'an says, "After this, whoever exceeds the limits shall be in grave chastisement" (2:178). No matter what wrong we perceive as being done against us, we may not lash out against an entire population of people.
· The Qur'an admonishes those who oppress others and transgress beyond the bounds of what is right and just. "The blame is only against those who oppress men with wrongdoing and insolently transgress beyond bounds through the land, defying right and justice. For such there will be a chastisement grievous (in the Hereafter)" (42:42).
· Harming innocent bystanders, even in times of war, was forbidden by the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). This includes women, children, noncombatant bystanders, and even trees and crops. Nothing is to be harmed unless the person or thing is actively engaged in an assault against Muslims.
The predominant theme in the Qur'an is forgiveness and peace. Allah (God) is Merciful and Forgiving, and seeks that in His followers. Indeed, most people who spend time on a personal level with ordinary Muslims have found them to be peaceful, honest, hard-working, civic-minded people.
In the fight against terrorism of all forms, it is important to understand who or what is our enemy. We can only fight against this horror if we understand its causes and motivations. What motivates a person to lash out in this violent, inhumane way? As the points out, researchers conclude that religion neither causes nor explains suicide terrorism. The true motivation of such attacks is something that all of us -- mental health professionals, politicians, and common people -- need to understand, so that we can address the issues more honestly, prevent more violence, and find ways to work towards lasting peace.

The Signs of the Age of Fitnah (Trials)
http://www.as-sidq.org/fitnah.html
All praise is for Allah. We praise Him and seek His help and seek His forgiveness and believe in Him and rely on Him. We seek refuge with Him from the evils of our souls and from the vices of our deeds. There is none to misguide him whom He guides and there is none to guide him whom He lets go astray. We bear witness that there is no god but Allah the One Who has no partner. We also bear witness that our sire, and ours authority and our Prophet and our Master, Muhammad (saw)
is His servant and His Messenger. May Almighty Allah have mercy on him, his household and bless and salute them all in great abundance.
The Holy Prophet was commissioned as a Prophet for all peoples of the world the Day of Judgment To day I want to say something briefly about such a theme of the teachings of the Holy Prophet as is very necessary today but is generally overlooked. Almighty Allah sent the Holy Prophet to this world as the last of the Prophets , thus finalizing with him the chain of Prophet hood. Another distinction which Allah bestowed upon him over other Prophets, is that the latter Prophets were sent to some particular people residing in a particular land in a particular age. Their teachings and preaching were-confined to territory. For example, Sayyidn'a Moosa (Moses)
sent to the Children of Israel, living in Egypt, his prophet hood was limited only to this community and this territory As against this, the Holy Prophet was sent to the entire world and entire humanity and for all times till the Day of Judgment. The Holy Qu’ran bears witness to this fact:
And We have not sent you (O Muhammad) but as a bringer of good tidings and as a Warner to all mankind..(34:28 )
The words of all mankind' imply all human wherever and in whatever age they are living. This clearly that his prophet hood was not confined only to Arabian Peninsulas nor to any particular age. His prophethood encompassed all periods and ages till Day of Judgment.
His teachings and injunctions shall remain valid, effective and in force till Judgment. As already pointed out his
teaching are not confined to any particular age and apply to every walk of life. These teachings consist of two aspects (1) prescribes the rules of the Shari 'ah concerning lawful, unlawful, desirable, permissible, and other aspect (2) predicts the events which will confront the Ummah in the times to come, and how the Ummah should tackle these events.
Prediction about future events
This second aspect is also a very important part of the teachings of the Holy Prophet in which, peeping into the future through the light of his Prophethood, he has informed his Ummah (all human being including his followers) of many future events and the ways how the members of his Ummah should tackle these events, so as to remain on the right path of Deen. Today I want to say something on this second aspect of the Prophet's teachings.
Anxiety for the salvation of the Ummah
The Holy Prophet always remained concerned about the good of his Ummah. It occurs in a narrative:
The Holy Prophet always remained drowned deep in some worry, grief.
What was the cause of this anxiety and grief? it was indeed not about collecting worldly resources, nor about improving his own honor and status among his community. The grief under which he was pining was about how to save from Hell-Fire the people to whom he had been sent; how to divert them from the path of error and to guide them to the straight path of right guidance. Finding His Prophet
drowned in such grief Allah has frequently revealed verses to advise the Prophet to give up such pining and fretting. Thus, Allah has said:
It may be that you will torment your soul that they do not become believers. (18:6)
This verse indicates how concerned the Holy Prophet was about the right guidance of his Ummah on to the path of Eeman (Faith). He is reported to have said in a Hadith (his saying or action) :
My example is like that man who kindles fires and seeing the fire, the moths begin to fall on the flames. The man tries to keep the moths away from the flames to save them from being burnt in the flames. In the same way I am
trying to save you from Hell-Fire by holding you back by your waists, but you are rushing into the Fire.
So concerned did the Holy Prophet feel about the right guidance of his Ummah, including also those who were yet to come to the world !
What Trials and Tribulations are expected to break out in the future?
The Holy Prophet has, therefore, informed the future generations of the events that shall occur in their times. Accordingly all books of Ahadith contain permanent chapters on Trials. In the Chapters all such Ahadith have been collated in which the Holy Prophet
has informed of, and warned the people against, the tribulations expected to occur in the future. The Holy Prophet has said in a Hadith:
In the future trials will fall down into your houses like the falling down of the drops of rain water.
These trials have been compared to the drops of rain water because the trials will fall down on your houses in an unbroken succession one after another.
The Holy Prophet has said in another Hadith:
Very soon trials and tribulations will appear which will be like dark nights.
In other words, just as a man is not able to find his way in dark nights in the same way during these blinding trials people will not know what to do and where to go Those trials will encompass the entire society, leaving no place of shelter for the people. The Holy Prophet
also taught the people a supplication to find refuge with Allah from these trials:
O Allah, we seek refuge with You from these apparent or hidden trials. This supplication was included in the Prophet's daily routine.
What is a Trial?
We should now try to understand the meaning of (Trial). we should also try to find out the teachings of the Holy Prophet for all of us to obey in order to remain safe from the harms of these trials. We are not aware of the real implications of this term, although we use it from morning till evening. This word has also been used in the Holy Qur'an many times. It has been mentioned in the Holy Qur'an at one place meaning that:
"... The creation of a trial is more grievous sin than murder...."
The meaning of Trial
The word (fitna or fitnah ) is an Arabic word the dictionary meaning of which is to find out the purity or impurity of precious metals like gold or silver by melting it on fire. Melting the metal on fire discloses the reality. For the same reason, it is also used to mean testing and examining something. Thus, a second meaning of this word is "trial". When hardships and misfortunes descend on a man his real worth and character are tested by his conduct and behavior under these trying situations. It is observed whether he bears these trying hours, days with patience makes a fuss and raises hues and cries. this testing is also called (Trial).
The word (Trial) as used in the Ahadith
The word d (Trial) has been used in the Ahadith to express a situation at any time. When the truth is obscure and it becomes very difficult to distinguish between good and bad, right and wrong and truth and falsehood. When such a situation arises, it is said that it is a time of trial. It is also a time of trial when sins, crimes and disobedience become rampant. In the same way to regard falsehood as truth and truth as falsehood and to put forward something as a proof which is not proof; these are forms of (Trial). For example, if you tell a person that such an act is unlawful and strictly prohibited, the person shall reply that the entire society, the whole world including Saudi Arabia is doing this act. In our times it has become a common practice that when an objection is raised to any act, the doer at once replies that he has seen the same act being done in the Saudi Arabia. This is also a (trial) to put forward some act or practice as a proof which is not at all a proof. In the same way we find that many groups and parties have sprung up in the city, each with its slogan and tenet and it is difficult to decide which is on the right path and which is on the wrong path. Truth and falsehood have thus become mixed up. All these fall within the definition of (Trial).
A quarrel between two parties is a (Trial)
It is also a case of trial when two Muslims or two Muslim groups fall out with each other so violently that they are ready to shed blood and commit murder and it is not known which of the two is right and which is wrong.
The Holy Prophet is reported to have said in a Hadith
When two Muslims begin to fight With each other with their swords, the murderer as well as the murdered will both enter Hell-Fire.
One of the Companions said to the Holy Prophet O Messenger of Allah It is understandable that the murderer shall go to Hell for murdering a Muslim, but why shall the murdered shall enter Hell? The Holy Prophet replied, saying: The murdered will enter Hell because he too had come out to fight with the intention of murdering his opponent but he did not succeed in his intention but his opponent succeeded in his intention. None of the two was fighting in the cause of Allah, but worldly benefit in the form of money or some political benefit. Both will, therefore, enter Hell.
Killing and robbing are Trial
The Holy Prophet said in another Hadith:
A time will come upon the people when there will be a great deal of a (confusion/disturbance). on being asked about he answered: It is killing and robbing, i.e., in those days these crimes will increase by leaps and bounds and human life will become meaner than that of mosquitoes and flies.
The Holy Prophet has said in another Hadith:
A time will come upon the people in which the killer will not know why he killed the victim nor will the victim killed know why he was killed.
Look at the conditions obtaining today in the society which fully confirms the truth of the Holy Prophet's prediction. This is as if the Holy Prophet was seeing these conditions with his own eyes.
In the olden days it was not known who was the killer, but it could be known why the victim was killed, i.e., he was killed by robbers for robbing the victim of his money? or by enemies. Anyway, the cause of the murder became known. What is happening now-a-days? A man is sitting or standing in front of his door, he has no enemies, he is not involved in politics yet some hooligan shoots at him and kills him without any apparent cause. The Holy Prophet
has predicted all these events in clear words:
A Hadith about the Holy City of Makkah
It is narrated by Sayyidn'a Abdullah bin Umar that the Holy Propeht said:
Until recently the people were not able to understand the real meaning of this Hadith, but now the meaning has become quite clear to them. The hadith may be translated as under:
When the belly of Makkah will be cleft open and through it will be dug out river-like passage (i.e. tunnels) and the buildings of the Holy City of Makkah will rise higher than its mountains when you observe these signs, then understand that the time of ? (Trial) is near at hand.
The cleaving asunder of the belly of the Holy City of Makkah
This Hadith has continued on records of the last fourteen centuries. The commentators of the Hadith felt baffled, while explaining this Hadith as they could not understand how belly of' the Holy City of Makkah could be cleft asunder nor could they understand the meaning of digging out river like passages. It was really very difficult to imagine the sense of all these predictions. But by seeing today's Makkah one feels that the Holy Prophet
made these predictions, as if he e was actually seeing with his own eyes today's Makkahtul-Mukarramah. Previously the commentators (Muhaddithin) interpreted this Hadith by saying that in their times Makkah was a dry and mountainous city, but in some future age Allah may cause rivers and canals to flow in that city. However today one feels by seeing these (underground) tunnels how the belly of Makkah has been cleft asunder:
Rising of building higher than mountains
The other sentence which the Holy Prophet spoke out in this Hadith is that the buildings of the Holy City of Makkah will rise higher than its mountains. A few years ago none could imagine that buildings would be built in Makkah which would rise higher than its mountains, as the city was surrounded by mountains on all sides. But go to Makkah and see for yourself how (high-rise) buildings higher than mountains have been built there.
It appears from this Hadith, as if fourteen centuries ago the Holy Prophet
had seen these changes and conditions with his own eyes. All these things had been shown to him clearly through revelations and light of Prophetic knowledge which Allah had granted him The Holy Prophet has clearly mentioned one by one what trials and tribulations the Muslims will have to face in the times to come. He has also mentioned simultaneously what the Muslims should do at such a time.
The present era in the light of the Ahadith
Every Muslim should keep in view those Ahadith in which the Holy Prophet a has predicted the future events. Maulana Muhammad Yusuf Ludhyanawi Sahib(Rh)has compiled a book titled "The Present Era in the Light of the Ahadith" He has tried to gather together in this book all the ahadith about the Trials. He has included in this book a Hadith in which the Holy Prophet
has mentioned seventy-two events which will occur during the Era of the Trials. I advise you to read them one by one and see how these events exactly agree to those taking place in our times and in our environments.

Lo! in the difference of day and night and all that Allah hath created in the heavens and the earth are portents, verily, for folk who ward off (evil).
10:6
And He it is Who giveth life and causeth death, and His is the difference of night and day. Have ye then no sense?
23:80
And He it is Who hath appointed night and day in succession, for him who desireth to remember, or desireth thankfulness.
25:62
Unto Allah belongeth whatsoever is in the heavens and the earth. Lo! Allah, He is the Absolute, the Owner of Praise.
31:26
He hath created the heavens and the earth with truth. He maketh night to succeed day, and He maketh day to succeed night, and He constraineth the sun and the moon to give service, each running on for an appointed term. Is not He the Mighty, the Forgiver?
39:5
Have ye observed the water which ye drink?
Is it ye who shed it from the raincloud, or are We the Shedder?
If We willed We verily could make it bitter. Why then, give ye not thanks?
Have ye observed the fire which ye strike out;
Was it ye who made the tree thereof to grow, or were We the grower?
We, even We, appointed it a memorial and a comfort for the dwellers in
the wilderness.
Therefor (O Muhammad), praise the name of thy Lord, the Tremendous.

O My servants, if the first and the last of you and the human and the jinn of you were to gather together on [the same sector] of land and all asked Me and if I were to give everyone of them what he asked, that would not decrease what I have any more than a needle decreases what is in the ocean when it is put into it. O My servants, it is but your deeds that I reckon for you. Then I recompense you for them. The one who finds good is to give praises to Allah. The one who finds other than that should not blame anyone but himself.”

Even when Allah (swt) punishes somebody, He (swt) does it out of His Justice, based on the deeds of the people. It is not Allah (swt) that wrongs people, they wrong themselves. So it is clear that Allah (swt) has never, and will never, commit any form of wrong doing. Therefore scholars such as Ibn Taymiyah have understood the statement, “I have forbidden wrongdoing for Myself”, to mean that wrongdoing is something that couldtheoretically be possible for Allah, but that He (swt) has had forbidden it from Himself and removed it as a possibility. And Allah knows best.

There is one type of dhulm or wrongdoing that will not be forgiven by Allah (swt), and that is shirk, ascribing partners with Allah (swt). Dhulm in which one wrongs oneself Allah (swt) may forgive, or He may punish us for. The dhulm that will not be overlooked unless reconciled in this life or the next, is wrongdoing towards other humans. This kind of wrongdoing cannot be left unresolved. One must either seek forgiveness from the wronged person or suffer punishment in this life or the Hereafter. The Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) said:

And if he has no good deeds, the sins of the oppressed person will be loaded on him.”

When we think that even saying something about someone that they would not like to hear is a punishable form of wrongdoing, how many of us can truly say that we have nothing to fear on the Day of Resurrection? Take heed and watch your tongue, for nothing leads us to Hellfire like the sins of the tongue.

We can strive to keep ourselves from committing dhulm against ourselves, Allah (swt) and others, by having taqwa of Allah and remembering His blessings. We should also try to develop humility, which is the opposite of pride and arrogance which lead many people to dhulm. We should strive to be just and righteous, and to free ourselves from envy. And we should turn to Allah (swt) and sincerely ask him to guide us and purify our souls.

Allah Most High has said:
Say: Praise be to Allah and peace on His servants whom He has chosen: is Allah better, or what they associate (with Him)? [27:59]
And He gives you of all that you ask Him; and if you count Allah's favors, you will not be able to number them; most surely man is very unjust, very ungrateful.
[14:34]
"Of the blessings of your Lord, speak out," [93:11]
Even as We have sent among you an Apostle from among you who recites to you Our communications and purifies you and teaches you the Book and the wisdom and teaches you that which you did not know.
Therefore remember Me, I will remember you, and be thankful to Me, and do not be ungrateful to Me.
O you who believe! seek assistance through patience and prayer; surely Allah is with the patient.( 2:151 to 153)

The Qur'an calls upon Muslims to look around them and study the physical world, so that they might appreciate the majesty of Allah's creation
"Behold! in the creation of the heavens and the earth; in the alternation of the night and the day; in the sailing of the ships through the ocean for the benefit of mankind; in the rain which Allah Sends down from the skies, and the life which He gives therewith to an earth that is dead; in the beasts of all kinds that He scatters through the earth; in the change of the winds, and the clouds which they trail like their slaves between the sky and the earth -- (Here) indeed are Signs for a people that are wise." (Surah Al-Baqarah 2:164)
Baqarah 2:164)
And the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) told Muslims to "seek knowledge, even if it be in China." (Meaning 'seek knowledge wherever it may be found.')
Throughout Islamic history, that is exactly what Muslims have done. Particularly in the 7th-13th centuries C.E., the Islamic world was in the midst of its "Golden Age," paving the way for the growth of modern sciences. Rather than stifling science, the religion of Islam encouraged its study. Scientific inquiry was widespread, and some of the greatest scholars and scientists of the world made wondrous discoveries and inventions. Muslims led the world in the study of medicine, astronomy, mathematics, geography, chemistry, botany, and physics. They transmitted their studies to the West, where their work was built upon and further disseminated.

There is no good in much of their secret conferences save (in) him who enjoineth almsgiving and kindnessand peace-making among the people. Whoso doeth that, seeking the good pleasure of Allah, We shall bestow on him a vast reward.

Why Islam ?
http://www.islamformankind.com/why.htm
I believe all mankind believes in God , their inner soul agrees that there is God or some kind of supernatural power .This world can not come to existence by chance. Once you believe in God you must agree that he has provided us everything we need - Air, Water , Food ,Fuel and all sorts of energy required . So how do you disbelieve that God has not shown us path to live in this world without any guidance ?
Islam is the Divine guidance from the beginning of creation of mankind on this earth - Messengers of God :
Nuh, Abraham ,Moses , Jesus , Mohammed were came to renew the same old message of submitting to will of God. That is Islam .Islam is the Call to eternal progress, individual and communal, spiritual and social, political and economic.It is in essence a Call to revolution. A revolution against corruption, falsehood, greed, ignorance . A revolution against wrong or evil behavior .
First let us look at the objectives of Islam. What is it that our Creator and Sustainer wishes of His creatures? The purpose of Creation?
