From its inception during the lifetime of Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him), Islamic doctrine was documented simultaneously and given priority to the preservation of the scripture. As a result, one of the earliest expressions of religiosity focused on studying, reciting, and writing down the scripture. When Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) died, the preservation of the scripture was also a conscious concern among his companions and successors. Early historical sources refer to immediate efforts undertaken by successors of Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) to collect the chapters of the Qur’an, which were written down by His various companions. And this preservation and protection is the promise of God towards His last religion and guidance of people. Allah said in the Quran:

What is shirck (polytheism)?

Shirck (Polytheism) is to worship other than Almighty Allah (God), which is a very major mistake to leave the Creator and worship creation.                                                         

Belief in the existence of many gods, unfortunately, it has been widespread in human cultures, past and present, and has taken many forms. Natural forces and objects—celestial, atmospheric, and earthly (such as stars, stones, people, rain, mountains, and fire)—have often been identified with divinities.

Reflect upon the story of Mary, the great mother of Jesus Christ. The narration in Surat Maryam (one chapter from the Noble Qur’an named after her name) that discussed her affair is indeed mesmerizing. No book in the history of the world provides a more beautiful feeling about the greatness of the Virgin Mary than the Noble Qur’an, the Last Revelation of the One True God that He entrusted to His last messenger and prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Who else can provide a more beautiful narration than the only God who is most Powerful of all! He is all Aware with Complete Knowledge. Any reader, whether Muslim or Christian, with all certainty will not doubt the honor bestowed by the Almighty Creator (Allaah) to Mary - the woman that came from the descendants of prophets.

The Islamic view of Jesus lies between two extremes. The Jews, who rejected Jesus as a prophet of God, called him an impostor and the modern day Christians who consider him to be the Son of God and worship him as if he is the Creator of the Heavens and the Earth. Islam considers Jesus to be one of the great prophets of God. Muslims hold Jesus in very high esteem, as well as all of the prophets of God, including Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Muhammad to name a few. This is in conformity with the Islamic view of the oneness of God, the oneness of divine guidance, and the complementary role of the subsequent mission of God’s messengers.

Praise be to Allaah, and blessings and peace be upon the Messenger of Allaah, who said:
“Allaah has shared out your attitudes among you just as He has shared out your provisions. Allaah gives worldly provision to those whom He loves and those whom He does not love, but He gives religion only to those whom He loves. So whoever is given religion, Allaah loves him…” (Narrated by Ahmad, 3490; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in al-Silsilah al-Saheehah, 714). Based on this hadeeth, you should praise Allaah a great deal for this blessing which He has bestowed upon you by enabling you to adhere to His religion. Note that trials are the nature of this world which is the world of tests and trials.

1. Our Knowledge: Wasted by not taking action with it
2. Our Actions: Wasted by committing them without sincerity.
3. Our Wealth: Wasted by using on things that will not bring us ajr (reward from Allah). We waste our money, our status, our authority, on things which have no benefit in this life or in akhirah (hereafter).

“Eid” is an Arabic word referring to something habitual that returns and is repeated. Eids or festivals are symbols to be found in every nation, including those that are based on revealed scriptures and those that are idolatrous, as well as others, because celebrating festivals is something that is an instinctive part of human nature. All people like to have special occasions to celebrate, where they can come together and express their joy and happiness.

Places in which men and women dance together are totally at odds with the ethos of Muslim society and the Shari'ah does not tolerate the participation of Muslim men and women in this activity because it may so easily prove the first step towards greater evils such as adultery and fornication.

MORAL values, such as honesty, trustworthiness, justice and chastity, are originally innate values which Allah planted in the hearts of mankind; then He sent His messengers with a system of life in accord with this innate disposition to affirm it.
