The Prophets And the Clear Message
It’s fair enough for a manufacturer to offer clear manuals explaining what he created. Yet, a “Loving” manufacturer also sends with those manuals teachers who deal with kindness and patience to clarify the purpose of what he created.
This is the example of the books and the prophets sent by God.
The prophets are indeed great examples of people who experienced true love with all their hearts.
Guess what makes a man like Abraham ready to slaughter his son except for love?!
Or what makes Moses go to advise a super cruel murderer like Pharaoh?!
It’s the power of love that filled the hearts of those PROPHETS.
The Prophets Chapter in Qur’an
“The Prophets” is the name of a chapter in the last message sent by God to his creation, the Qur’an.
I decided to reflect on it with you as I believe it contains answers to lots of our thoughts and questions.
It starts with a warning message to all people:
[The time of] their account has approached for the people, while they are in heedlessness turning away.”[Quran 21:1] (1)
No mention comes to them anew from their Lord except that they listen to it while they are at play.” [Quran 21:2] (2)
With their hearts distracted. And those who do wrong conceal their private conversation, [saying], “Is this [Prophet] except a human being like you?” [Quran 21:3] (3)
This is the case of many people, they don’t want to listen, and if they listen, their hearts are distracted!
Yes, God knows that and knows your thoughts right now.
He (The Prophet) said : ‘ My Lord knows whatever is said throughout the heaven and earth, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing’.” [Quran 21:4] (4)
Why don’t you turn to Him alone and ask Him sincerely for guidance?!
This book is sent to you! This book is mentioning you, your doubts, thoughts, sorrows, and hopes.
These are not my words; these are God’s words in verse 10.
We have certainly sent down to you a Book in which is your mention. Then will you not reason?” [Quran 21:10] (5)
And look at verse 16 which directly replies to you when you wonder about the purpose of your creation and your life; when you think it’s all for fun and pastime.
God replies:
And We did not create heaven and earth and that between them in play.” [Quran 21:16] (6)
Had We intended to take a diversion, We could have taken it from [what is] with Us – if [indeed] We were to do so.” [Quran 21:17] (7)
That Is Powerful, Isn’t It?
These are the words of God, the Powerful over all creation.
To Him belongs whoever is in the heavens and the earth. And those near Him are not prevented by arrogance from His worship, nor do they tire.” [Quran 21:19] (8)
They exalt [Him] night and day [and] do not slacken.” [Quran 21:20] (9)
So, indeed He doesn’t need your worship, but you and every single creature need Him.
However, He is sending you messages out of Love and Care. His messages can’t be denied.
Genuine Messages from True God
Or have they taken gods besides Him? Say, [O Muhammad], ‘Produce your proof. This [Qur’an] is the message for those with me and the message of those before me.’ But most of them do not know the truth, so they are turning away.” [Quran 21:24] (10)
How could there be other Gods besides Him?
How could there be more than one creator?!
How could there be more than one, unique, powerful, and self-sufficient God?!
Those who worship other gods, can you produce proof?!
And Now, It’s Your Turn
I can guess now that you ask yourself:
but why especially the Qur’an?
Why Islam in specific?
I believe in God, isn’t it enough?!
Here, He replies in the next verse:
And We sent not before you any messenger except that We revealed to him that, ‘There is no deity except Me, so worship Me.”
[Quran 21:25] (11)
See, the message is one by all the Prophets.
It’s the universal message to all people at all times.
And they say, ‘The Most Merciful has taken a son.’ Exalted is He! Rather, they are [but] honored servants; They said that, not God! Exalted is He.”
[Quran 21:26] (12)
How about Atheists?
Are they mentioned here in the chapter?
Indeed 🙂
Have those who disbelieved not considered that the heavens and the earth were a joined entity, and We separated them and made from water every living thing? Then will they not believe?”
[Quran 21:30] (13)
After God confirms His oneness and His exaltation to have a son, He talks to people who totally deny Him by evidence from their recent discoveries 🙂
Don’t you say that the heavens and earth were one entity, like smoke, and there was a big bang that made the universe?
God says I AM THE ONE who separated them!
Don’t you say that water is the source of every living thing?
Look, God revealed that, more than 1440 years ago, through his illiterate prophet who lived in the desert! Peace be upon Him and upon all the Prophets 🙂
So, won’t you believe it?!
Conclusion
This is the Prophets Chapter. It clarifies the manual of the “Loving” Manufacturer through genuine messages speaking about God’s oneness, scientific evidence, and some practical examples for the Prophets. Won’t you follow THE PROPHETS?
Is There a Trustworthy Love with No Pain?
We all search for love, true love. We believe that Love is the greatest feeling ever!
I know, I’ve searched too and I found Him, finally.
I understand how you, me, and all of us are searching for a perfect relationship. That’s why I decided to share my experience.
My True Love Story
First, I would like to confess that I feel love like never before; Truly He is “The Most Loving” for all.
He confirms that His Compassion for me will exceed my mom’s. I am sure that He’d never hurt me and He’d accept me the way I am.
He told me several times that He will always stay near, stay the closest to me. That’s why I call Him my “Ever close” too.
He never lets me down when I need Him.
Moreover, He always responds to me; He is always kind. He is never busy to listen, despite all His concerns.
Every time, I can ask, complain, cry and request, and never return futile.
To Him and only Him, my tears are so precious.
More about His Attributes
Strangely, He’s always pleased when I ask for His help and gets angry when I stop asking Him!
Yeah! Unlike all others, He likes to listen to my voice every time and at any time.
His love is special; He declares His love for me and tells others to love me too.
He protects me saying: I am your sight, I am your hearing, I am your hands; I will be protecting you forever.
Yeah, He’s taking care of me like no one else; I can’t do anything without His support.
Oh, I love being totally dependent on Him; He is Sufficient for me.
He’s extremely rich and extremely generous to everyone.
Although He doesn’t need me, He’s Thankful for everything I do to please Him and never neglects or forgets a single deed.
Forgiving is so easy for Him. His Kindness and Patience are incredible, even with sinning people; He never gets bored of forgiveness!
He never stopped taking care of me when I slip up. But what dazzles me is how quickly He accepts me when I regret and even loves me more than before and gives me more and more.
He is so Strong; I love the way He defends me when I feel oppressed.
He promised to defend my rights and never be unjust, even as much as an atom’s weight.
Yeah! How much I feel safe in such a relationship.
Breaking my heart means a lot to Him; backbiting about me, abusing me, and betraying me are such horrible crimes for which He may severely punish their doers.
Frankly, I can’t remember how many times I was totally broken and He perfectly healed me; He is my only Healer. He is sufficient for me as a Guardian and Supporter.
Finally, He never changed, never broke His promises, and never stopped His care over years and years.
I know you might have got who my words are referring to, and most probably you don’t really believe this.
But all that you read is true and authentic, and there is much more.
This is not a dreamy legend and I’m not going to ask you to believe a complicated story with illogical incidents to achieve such a relationship.
I’m just calling for your innate nature and the pure sensation inside your heart.
This doesn’t mean I can’t talk to your mind; I can amaze you by a mind-to-mind purely scientific conversation. But as I understand my and your need for such a relationship, I decided to share it first with you ☺
I believe that there is only one relationship that can define our self-worth, and there is only one source where we can seek our ultimate happiness, fulfillment, and security.
God says in the Qur’an:
So whoever disbelieves in Taghut [false masters] and believes in Allah has grasped the most trustworthy handhold with no break in it.” [Quran 2:256] (1)
Conclusion
To conclude there is no exaggeration in my speech, it is how the relationship should be with the Creator from the Islamic point of view, and these are truly the beautiful attributes and names of Allah, and how He describes Himself to all mankind.
In Islam, the hearts are connected to God, the Most Loving. The most powerful feeling is Love, and it is intended to last in this life and the hereafter; unlike fear, for its purpose is to stop the deviation from the right path, and it will disappear in the afterlife.
Allah says,
Unquestionably, [for] the allies of Allah there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve” [Quran 10:62] (2)
And only this true love shall last ever after. Want to know more about Islam and why to be a Muslim? Read this!
