Islam And Worship Essays - Allah, God In Islam, Al-Qalam, Imamate

Islam And Worship In the name of Allah, the beneficent, the merciful. Praise be to Allah lord of the worlds. Some people claim that Muslims worship one of the pagan gods of the Arabs. Allah, according to these people, is only the name of those idols chosen by Muhammad as his god out of 360 idols worshiped by pre-Islamic Arabs. The best answer to these claims comes from the holy quran, the final word of god almighty. According to the Quran Muslims worship the same almighty god of Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad (peace be upon all of them). They submit to the divine being, the creator of the universe. Allah is the proper name of god in Arabic. It simply means the one and only God. Here is how the quran introduces Allah. It refers to the one and only god the almighty, the lord of all creation. He is Allah, the one and only! Allah, the eternally besought of all, he begets not, nor was he begotten and there is none equal to him. May Allah open the hearts and minds of people to return to him alone. Only then can they succeed. Hinduism, what is Hinduism? To worship something that mankind them self-made? Something that can break and then be replaced? Something that can neither talk nor hear? Something that could neither hurt nor curse any one? I am just curious and want to know how can human create something from their own hands and then start to worship it. Then if human made the idols who made Human? Who made the worlds, the earth, heaven, the sky, the moon, the sun, the stars, the animals the plants and who made everything that the earth contains, before the idols were created by men? Did the idols make them? But, how could have the idols that refer to gods in Hinduism make them when humans made the idols after the world was created? How can we make something yesterday and tomorrow start to worship it? Then believe that it's powerful when we our selves the human have the power to create it? I just want to know and research more about the answers to my questions, so if you have any answers please explain to me. Allah! There is no god but he, He is the creator of the worlds, the human, the sun, the moon, stars, heaven, earth and everything that the earth contains, he is the alive, the eternal; neither slumber nor sleep overtakes him. Unto him belongs all that is in heavens and what is on earth. Who is he that intercedes with him except by his leave? He knows that which is before them and that which is after them; while they encompass nothing of his knowledge save according to his will. His chair contains the heavens and the earth; and he is never weary of preserving them, and he is the sublime, the tremendous. (2:255) The quran is one of the books of Allah besides, injil, zabur, tawrat, All these four books are the books of Allah they are the words of Allah himself. Eventhough as the years went by men have changed the words of Allah and made themselves go astray, but Allah has promised humankind that he himself is looking over the quern, (he's last book) so no one can change a dot from it. Allah has kept his promise, until this day not even one word in the quran has been changed or ever will be changed,all the words or even dots in the qurans all over the world are the same. All books of allah had only one message that there is only one god, he is the creator of worlds and everything that is contained in the heavens and earth, but the people changed Allah's words and went astray, not knowing that they belong to Allah and oneday they will return to him. Islam is a religion that teaches Muslims to love one another weather a believer or non believer, we are all the children of Adam and Eve which therefore makes us all brother and sister .We are all the creation of god, god loves us all and only wants the best for us. Like parents whom wants the best for their children so does Allah want for us. Allah (god) has given us so much, he has made the earth like a carpet in order for us to walk on, He has given us sight so that
