THE QURAN

I open the pages of that Book and read with my hurting heart.
I see things making sense in this world we rip apart.
I read those words aloud to let my soul hear well.
I read about the consequence of lies and about the pits of hell.
I read about the rivers that flow with honey, milk and wine.
I read about the gifts of heaven and how the insides shine.
I read about the rights to man and read about the signs.
I read about the miracles and how nothing is unrefined.
I see the truth through words that sing
Read about every cure, every little thing.
I read of how I'm protected with examples from the past.
I read of how I'm meant to pray, and how I'm meant to fast.
My soul is reassured of what it has to do.
A guide Book for my life, a guide book thats for you!
''No compulsion in religion'' is what the Book does say,
Warnings not to be unjust in times of war or pay.
Even the simplest things no man can jot from head.
Like how the pharaoh died and what battles blood was shed.
Like how mountains are pegged into the earth and the
fetus forms inside the womb.
Like how honey is a cure and how we can prevent
pain from satins nasty doom.
Like the way the word year is mentioned 365 times in this book....
If you don't believe that, take a careful close up look!
Like the way it talks about planets floating in an orbit high.
With seven skies and thunder is the angel's praising cry.
It tells us about the black hole that sweeps everything in its way.
Only discovered recently by scientist and nothing that they say...
Nothing that they've said has not been mentioned in this Book.
If you don't believe that, then take a careful close up look!
Like the way my heart feels when I've read a couple lines.
How my chin is lifted and my heart and soul shines.
There's so much more I'd be here all day.
Proof this Book is not a mere eloquent play
This Book, all the education of today
This Book, see what it has to say.
What would you lose by reading a page?
Your sure to feel no hatred, no anger nor mans cruel rage.
Open your eyes for this Book is made ''for those who understand!''
I quote that from the Book itself
It's time you had a look to see if you can READ....
It's time you gave your soul a chance, see it for yourself.

its a reality after all....

as it say that:....... ^_^

you talk about what will we receive if we avoid every sin who will bring us to hell, you describe about human future after dead according to Al Qur`an...nice poem you got there....and that was true if we read Al-Qur`an it makes our self feel so peace...it erase every hatred you got and somehow we will feel so comfort....not only when we read it but also when we hear someone read it with Quro/Qori`ah....right?
I love your poem

wow......thats a comment I never expected......hehehe

thank soooo much for commenting so kindly....I really thought I would get negetive responses from the site but your words are encouraging....thanks again. peace.

Quran: All we need

The Qur’an: unique among Scriptures
The Qur’an is the most often-read book in the world. Revealed by God to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in the 7th century, and revered by Muslims as being God’s final Scripture and Testament, its words have been lovingly recited, memorized, and implemented by Muslims of every nationality ever since. The faithful are inspired, consoled often moved to tears by its eloquence and poetic imagery, especially when recited aloud. And yet, the Qur’an is unique in being the only Scripture that is free of scientific inaccuracies, whose historical authenticity can be verified, and whose text has been so carefully preserved that just one authorized version (in Arabic) exists. Approximately the length of the New Testament, the Qur’an is also the only holy book that can be memorized in its entirety by people of all ages and intellectual abilities – including non-Arabic speakers – which Muslims consider to be one of its miracles. We invite you to take a few minutes to learn something about a book that is the foundation of the world-view and culture of almost one-fourth of the people on this planet.

Although no translation of the Qur’an can faithfully capture its Arabic meaning (and all Muslims are encouraged to learn Arabic), the following excerpt illustrates these points beautifully:

‘Recite to them the story of Abraham,
When he asked his father and his people, ‘What do you worship?’
‘We worship idols,’ they replied, ‘and we are ever devoted to them.’
He said, ‘Do they hear you when you cry?
Or do they benefit or harm you in any way?’
They said, ‘No, but this is what we found our forefathers doing.’
He said, ‘Do you see, then, what you and your forefathers have been worshipping?
Truly, they are all my enemies, except the Lord of the Worlds,
Who created me, and Who guides me,
And Who feeds me and gives me to drink,
And when I am ill, He heals me,
And Who will cause me to die, and give me life again;
And Who, I ardently hope, will forgive me my sins on the Day of Judgement.
O Lord, grant me wisdom, and unite me with the righteous,
And grant that I may be remembered well in future generations,
And make me one of the inheritors of the Garden of Delight;
And forgive my father, for he is one of those who is lost;
And do not disgrace me on the Day when all will be resurrected,
The Day that wealth and children will not avail anyone,
Except one who brings to God a clean heart.’
(The Qur’an, Chapter of ‘The Poets’, 26:69–89)

sadaq Allahul 'adheem.....

thank you,you chose one of my favorate verses to post on here.....and if people who read that do not feel the power of the words shake their hearts then my heart too will hurt as I fear that the End is very near....
like the prophet (pbuh) once said......mankind will know when the end is near and one of the signs will be that Islam will be as difficult to hold as it would be to hold molten rocks in the palm of your hand.when Islam becomes a stranger to the world in the end as it did when it began....this is when we know that people cannot turn to God by mere talk but that God will choose who HE wills to be with the mighty army on the day when the Antichrist fights us with the jews by his side.when the christians and muslims will unite as one and defeat them....only then will they ever know......I pray they know sooner.

Just thought I'd ask

...I have tried to find God many times. Christianity happens to be all the States pretty much have. Christianity and all of its hundreds and hundreds of divided churches. if one was wanting to know more about the beauty of which you speak. to where would I go and what must I read. findng a copy of the bible is as easy as finding racists and rapists in my own city. i ask about the Qu'ran and where to find it. if this makes any since what so ever.
For all it's worth...

peace my brother....I feel you are already a believer.....

You searched for God many times? well let me tell you what Allah says.....Allah says......he who has hardships in this life shall be rewarded in the next and not a prick from a thorn that causes the most minor pain shall go unanswered.......with every struggle and hardship and every pain we feel emotionaly or other wise......Allah will wipe sins from behind us and He says that we should rather struggle in this life than the next.
Allah tests those who He loves and guides who He wills.....
and for the enemy of Allah and the follower of satin,.....Allah will place before a
screen so that he cannot believe and cannot see,his comprehension is low and his soul a perfect target for shaytan [satin] who will snigger with pride and laugh at how weak mankind is. And Allah leaves him as a lesson for the people who can see,the people He loves........Alot of people say they have always believed in Islam....but never knew it was ''islam''......I feel you will benefit from the mighty Book,as not anyone can Read with full comprehension.....its not designed for closed hearts and minds but designed for intellegent and fearful minds who care for their souls and their children and their eternal fate.
One thing you will soon come to know while reading this Book....is that there are no flaws......thats what gets up scientists noses.....In the Quran....Allah challenges man to find a flaw in His Book,a contradiction or unbenificial verse.
I challenge you as God does....you try to bring me one,just one flaw and if you do I will become a jew![thats how confident I am!]
brother Virtue,you can find all the answers you have yearned for,all the rights you ever wanted,all the freedom,all the pride,all the PEACE,you can regain your want to trust in Him and you can learn things that will amaze you for the rest of your life.....you want proof?.....its all there ,I hope you were one of the many chosen to enter this brotherhood that will protect your beliefs to the end..........you can find your peace[quran] in any islamic centre or mosque,never be weary upon entering a mosque...all are welcome and will be treated with great respect and hospitality....all you do is ask.....may I have a copy of the quran? .....and nobody will turn you away.....also.....you can read the holy Quran online.......its very easy,just search for Quran translation.
also you dont need to worry bout looking up 700 different versions.....there is only one Quran...that is a fact.what you will read is what I have read.....sorry for the super long reply,hehehe.....you take care and peace
p.s :anything else you wanna know ,dont you hesitate.......lifes much too short!

No judgment from the beautiful

Thank you for your help. I will make no promises at this point as to what I will do with this "want" to believe, but Never will I pass up the oppertunity to gain knowledge from this world. many have told me that life has a purpose, whether we choose to believe it or not and that things "happen for a reason." I have closed my eyes to this and have tried to find "happiness" in the ways of the flesh. wheter or not you believe that or if it is in your Book, I am unsure, but all my attempts to end this life of mine have failed. which happens to be one of the main reasons I have turned away from God. For the only things I want seem to laugh in my face and mock me, pushing me even further away from any desire to live. Though, if what you say is true and infallable, I will Read and Read and Read to my hearts content. Thank you.
For all it's worth...

your welcome.....

You dont need to make any promises to me brother, I will not benefit from you seeing the truth, Im already there ,Ive seen it all.......the bibles,the torah, phalms of David....and many many more......It gave me such pleasure to see how the Book I love so dearly kept on proving every other scripture wrong....
and I really read every book with an open mind.
you say that you have closed your eyes to the fact that everything happens 4 a reason........and thats partly why you have turned away from God.....
this happens to alot of people who have seen Gods contradictions through only what they have seen in their life,thats why I always say that God makes those whose hearts are hard, blind to the truth,and only with their hope and His will, will the screen be lifted from before their eyes....its Gods promise.
I hope you can find what you are searching for and I pray that Allah lets you into our world......Islam is not a part of a persons life....it is their life and without it we are guaranteed unhappiness and a feeling of emptiness inside.
like I said before,I dont preach to anyone[although I probably should]
but I just feel that you are the typical type of person who gets chosen to enter this peace.....for those who struggle without answers are those whome search for guidance,and those who search for the truth Allah will guide and bring them peace.
you say that :
For the only things I want seem to laugh in my face and mock me, pushing me even further away from any desire to live.
maybe God was saving you from becoming lost in your desires....if you had everything you ever wanted in life you would never feel unhappy,therefore you would never doubt nor wonder nor ask nor seek who gave you all this pleasure....Allah let you live like that so that you may find him,as much as it hurt and as much as you think that its unfair....Allah never leaves a pain unanswered or unrewarded......enjoy your Guide book...peace.
