Los afluentes de la fe: ¿qué es la fe?

La espiritualidad musulmana es una dimensión fundamental del Islam sin embargo muy desconocida para muchos. La espiritualidad es una parte esencial de la fe por eso es necesario preguntarse qué es la fe y qué es la espiritualidad. La espiritualidad es la ciencia motor del ser humano y aporta a este un propósito tanto individual como colectivo, esto, a su vez, le aporta significado.  Dado el estado actual del mundo y de los musulmanes la espiritualidad es una ciencia necesaria, puesto que es a través del cambio de las personas como puede cambiar el mundo que nos rodea, y no al contrario. Esto lo dice claramente Allah en el Corán: Cierto que Allah no cambia lo que una gente tiene hasta que ellos no han cambiado lo que hay en sí mismos. Corán, 13:11 Por esto decimos que el objetivo del desarrollo espiritual es el cambio de uno mismo para  cambiar el mundo que nos rodea. Este es el tema central de la creencia y la espiritualidad islámica.  El Corán te ab...

Troublée Par Le Coran? Je l’étais un jour!

Une Eductation Strictement Catholique J’ai été élevée par une mère profondément catholique. Elle m’a mis pendant 9 ans dans une école catholique. Aussi, elle m’a fait adhérer aux classes extrascolaires de la Confraternité de la Doctrine Chrétienne. Je me levais, m’agenouillais et m’asseyais à l’église chaque dimanche et souvent les vendredis. Ainsi, au début de ma cnversion vers l’islam, j’étais beaucoup plus familière avec la Bible qu’avec le Coran. A présent, je ne le suis plus autant. La Bible Et Moi Certes, j’ai toujours trouvé que la Bible était troublante. Elle n’a aucune structure reconnaissable ni chronologie. Elle ne s’apparente non plus ni à une biographie ni à une autobiographie. Elle ne ressemble ni à un manuel, ni à aucun type de livre ou de notice. Cependant, compte tenu de l’éducation religieuse que j’avais reçue, je savais certaines choses. Le Coran Et Moi Comment Connaître Notre Seigneur? Mais en tant qu’adulte qui s’est convertie durant la période som...

One Powerful Reason the Quran is Divine

In their attempts to discredit the divine origin of the Quran, critics for centuries have claimed that the Prophet Muhammad authored the Quran. 5 Things Bring Inner Peace and Tranquility One historical fact, however, is sufficient to debunk that theory: the Prophet’s living conditions were unfavorable for him to have authored an impeccable masterpiece. Not Enough Resources In the 23-year period of prophethood, the Prophet Muhammad did not have the adequate equipment to conclude all the facts that are stated in the Quran. Take, for instance, the Quran’s statement on the expanding universe : We have built the universe with power, and indeed We are expanding it. (Quran 51:47 ) With the telescope reportedly invented in the 17th century, over 1000 years after the Prophet Muhammad, it would have been difficult for him to have discovered this fact on his own. The Prophet Muhammad was not a philosopher, researcher, or a scientist. He was unable to read or write, and no evid...

Q&A: Why Can’t We See Allah?

Some may ask why can’t we see Allah? Believers are asked to believe without seeing Allah’s face, but rather to see and feel Him through all his creations, his book the Quran and his Prophets. In today’s society where all can be seen due to Internet, the numerous technologies and social platforms; it is difficult for many people to believe that Allah exists. Why can’t we see Him? Why is He hidden from us? And what if we could? Wouldn’t it nullify the purpose of our tests?  How  free  would we be, knowing that the one we are suppose to obey to, is as visible as anyone around us? In this video: In this video Dr. Shabir Ally answers 3 main notions: 1-     Anatomically : our inability to see the infinite: whether it is something microscopic or simply where the universe starts and ends. What does the Quran or other holy books are saying about that matter. 2-     Mentally : since there were no messenger sent after Prophet ...

Al-Madinah: Names and History

Taibah, Yathreb and Dar Al-Hijrah are different names to one city, Al-Madinah. Al-Madinah (Arabic for the city ) was so called as it received Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him when he fled Makkah in 622 CE. It is also known by the name Taibah derived from the Arabic word meaning kindness. Another name it goes by is Dar Al-Hijra (Arabic for Land of Migration ) because it is where the Prophet had migrated to. The tribes of Banu Matraweel and Banu Hauf  were the first settlers to inhabit and cultivate the oasis of Madinah. Both tribes descended from the lineage of Shem, the son of Prophet Noah. Many years later, the Yemeni tribes of Banu Aus and Banu Khazraj arrived at Madinah. In 622 CE, when Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) immigrated to Madinah he introduced the Madinah Charter, which is in fact the first ever written constitution in the history of humankind .

¿Por qué nadie me ha hablado antes sobre el Islam?

Greta tiene más de setenta años. Creció en una familia católica romana de inmigrantes italianos a los Estados Unidos. Se convirtió al Islam a través de su hija hace unos años. Su único lamento es que nadie le hablase antes sobre el Islam. Esta es su historia. Explorar diferentes iglesias Consejos para incrementar nuestro amor por lo Divino He sido una persona piadosa. Fui criada como católica y mis padres eran muy tradicionales. Íbamos a la iglesia y rezabamos en casa. Sin embargo, me casé con un hombre que era luterano, lo cual molestó mucho a mis padres. No es que abandonara la iglesia católica romana, pero también comencé a asistir con mi esposo a su iglesia. Me gustaba la forma alegre de la iglesia luterana, pero tampoco nunca me sentí allí como en casa. Cuando mi esposo dejó de asistir de forma regular para al servicio dominical en su iglesia, comencé a explorar otras iglesias y denominaciones cristianas diferentes. A mi esposo no le importó. Y mis padres no lo sabí...

Comment Ne Pas Aimer Allah ?

Nous sommes constamment confrontés à des opportunités qui nous poussent à nous comparer à autrui et à rechercher leur validation. En parcourant un site de médias sociaux ou en parlant avec un groupe d’amis, nous voyons le succès selon l’optique du monde. De plus, nous combattons le désir inné de voir comment nous pouvons être à la hauteur. 5 Raisons Inspirantes D'être Content Ce Qui Compte Le Plus Au fur et à mesure que nous vérifions notre place selon l’opinion de tout le monde, nous risquons d’oublier que ce qui compte le plus, c’est notre relation personnelle avec Allah . C’est cela qui devrait déterminer notre sentiment de réussite et notre estime de soi. C’est l’opinion d’ Allah sur nous qui devrait être la plus importante. Nous y arrivons en centrant nos vies sur Allah et sur Son plan pour nous. Nous, en tant que musulmans, ressentirons certainement un plus grand sentiment d’accomplissement dans notre vie quotidienne. Croyez-le ou non, il est beaucoup plus f...
