Living in accordance with the Quran. 

Living In Accordance With The Qur'an.

The Qur'an is the sole guide for Muslims, being the eternal and unaltered Word of God. It is described in various verses as a guide, a light, a measure, evidence, a miracle, medicine, glad tidings, advice, a reminder, a law, guidance, an explanation, and a warning. Our Prophet was guided solely by the Qur'an, and had no authority to make anything outside of it lawful or unlawful. Through the Qur'an, humanity can read and understand God's unaltered speech, learn how to worship Him, and abide by His commands.

It must be the most important reference for those seeking to be guided, and it is the duty of every Muslim with wisdom, a conscience, and common sense to convey its message to all people.

Allah is the true Friend and Lord of all. He is the Creator and the Provider of everything, and His help and support are always with His believers. He is the only one we can trust with our lives and eternity, and He is the only one who can protect us from all harm. Believers in Allah put their trust in Him as their Lord and Friend, knowing that He is the protector of all who put their trust in Him. Allah has promised that He will guard His faithful believers, providing them with strength and courage, guiding them "with His eye that is always upon them, and saying to them, "Fear not! I am with you, and I will protect you" (Quran 9:40).

Furthermore, He has promised them victory in their trials, and everlasting reward in Paradise. Allah is also aware of our limitations, and will not burden us with anything beyond our capacity. As the Quran states: "Nothing can happen to us except what Allah has ordained for us. He is our Master. It is in Allah that the believers should put their trust". Allah is thus the Lord and Friend of all who put their trust in Him, providing them protection, strength and courage, victory, and the promise of an eternity of paradise.

A person of faith arranges his  whole life according to the Holy Quran, and strives to apply carefully from day to day what he has read and learned from its verses. In everything he does from the moment he gets up in the morning till the time he falls asleep at night, he aims to think, speak and act according to the teachings of the Quran.

How Should One Look at Possessions in Order to Earn Almighty Allah’s Approval and Paradise?

"Design", briefly, means a harmonious assembling of various parts into an orderly form towards a common goal. Going by this definition, one would have no difficulty in guessing that a car is a design. This is because there is a certain goal, which is to transport people and cargo. In realization of this goal various parts such as the engine, tires and body are planned and assembled in the plant.

What is the underlying cause of the way that some people suddenly become infuriated or emotional and start weeping or behave in some unexpected way in the face of day-to-day events? Why is it essential to avoid falling prey to this disorder, which mainly damages the victim himself and is generally described as someone “having a hair trigger?” What must be done to free oneself from the condition?

The aim of life for a believer is solely that of being a servant of Allah. People are not created to fulfil their vain desires and greed, or to pursue their passions; the one and only reason for our creation is to serve Allah. The way to achieve this is by taking the Qur’an as our unique guide. We should give all our attention to applying every decree of the Qur’an. Our target should be to observe every decree of the Qur'an as much as possible.

Conscience is a spiritual quality that bids man good attitude and thought, and helps him think straight and tell right from wrong. One of the important aspects of conscience is that it is common to all people. In other words, what feels right to the conscience of a man also feels right to the conscience of all others provided that the same conditions prevail...
