Jumuah Mubarak. Support New Muslims.

 

Jumuah Mubarak to our dear brothers and sisters! 

Surely your Lord is Allah Who created the heavens and the earth in six Days, then established Himself on the Throne, conducting everyaffair. None can intercede except by His permission. That is Allahyour Lord, so worship Him alone. Will you not then be mindful?

Qur'an 10:3

This divine verse engages our intellect to testify to His Oneness andMajesty.

 

Look at the majesty of His Creation

None can share in His creation and dominion over the universe. He alone brought forth the heavens and the earth in six days*, a span signifying His divine wisdom and boundless power. 

*day=length of time, not the same as an earthly day

Look at the world around us, brimming with beauty and intricate design. The universe as a whole is ready and functional. Every element in creation, from the smallest particle to the vastest galaxy, only serves as a testament to the existence of a Creator andSustainer.

The only logical conclusion is that there is a Being who exercises and embodies absolute power and majesty. Such is the station and degree of His perfect power. He creates instantly, as He wills, without help. SubhanAllah.

The Eiffel Tower, the Great Wall of China, and the Pyramids of Giza, inspire many to traveland marvel at what humans can achieve. But, can you create something out of nothing? What about a single grain of sand? 

It's an impossible feat for any human, but not for Allah, the Exalted, the Eternal. By being mindful, Allah calls humanity to recognize His power and believe in Him.

UltimateSovereignty

Our Lord reigns supreme, unmatched in His control over the cosmos. Unlike other religions that may disperse divine power among multiple entities or idols, Islam calls us to the purest form of monotheism. 

Allah alone orchestrates the affairs of His kingdom with absolute authority. Even the Prophet's intercession on theDay of Judgment is granted solely by His permission, emphasizing His ultimate sovereignty and being the only one deserving of worship.

"You alone do we worship..."

Quran 1:5

Whoever is pleased for Allah to save him from distress on the Day of Resurrection, let him relieve one in hardship or lifthis burden.
