About the Blog

Assalaamualaikum (May peace be on you all).

The main purpose of writing this blog is nothing but to spread Love & Truth. If we want to make this world a better place to live in, then the truth must prevail over falsehood and love should be spread instead of hatred. This is only possible when falsehood is rejected and truth is accepted. Now the big question is how do we accertain what is truth and what is faslehood? How do we judge between right and wrong because everybody claims to be following the truth, including me?

It is also very important to mention here that if some lie is propogated as a truth over and over again , it does not become a truth. It stays what it is, that is a lie, but unfortunately, it comes to be accepted as truth. Allah has blessed every man with a heart and a mind to differentiate between right and wrong. Fro example, if someone tells me that your so and so friend says that you are a big lier. Now, if I have little sense, I will not believe him and utter any bad word for my friend till I have found out from my friend whether did he really say so, If yes, then why? No matter, if the whole world comes and tells me that your friend has said such a thing, I should not believe it till I have finally spoken to him and ascertained the truth. But in our times, we do not have time to find the truth. We are too busy earning and eating! That's the be all and end all of all our activities. If this is our way of life then I am very sorry to say that there is no difference between an animal and a human. That was not the purpose of creation of man. In fact man is God's best creation. Everything has been created for man and man has been created for God, meaning to worship none but Him and follow His Commands that came to us through His messengers, so that we may lead a happy and peaceful life and be successful. Now if this best of God's creation stoops down before lifeless idols, stones, trees and what not, besides his Master and Creator, then its really pity.

Some of us form opinions based on our experiences and knowledge and some amazingly on just hearsay. The latter seems to be leading the way, which is a very dangerous sign for entire humanity. There no doubt knowledge and experience help us a great deal, but if the knowledge that we gain has not come from authentic source, then this is very dangerous. For example, why is it that we worship different things and objects, but yet we proclaim that our God is one? Some say that just as a light passes through a prism it manifests different colours, in the same way God is one but He manifests Himself in different forms and shapes. Sounds very convincing and great, but is that really true? If so, then why is it that when the so called God takes the form of human, as some people believe (though they do not have any proof) becomes so weak and feeble? He is driven and punished by His own slaves. Whereas, what we know about God is that He has power over all things.

In the same way, when any unfortunate incidence takes place, we form our opinions based on the infromation we are fed upon by media. Whereas we all are very well aware that revealing the truth is no more the purpose of media. It has become a thorough profession. There are many unfortunate incidences which happened in the recent past and changed the complexion of the world we live in forever. Had the media stood up and brought forth the truth, the situation would not have become so bad as it is now. On the contrary, it potrayed the criminals and mischief mongers as heroes.

Therefore, the main purpose of writing this blog is to propogate the truth, be it about God or about the current world scenario. But my top priority is to bring man closer to God and make him realise that he will be made accountable for his each and every deed. He will not go unaccounted for. God is all watching. When this belief is instilled in man, inshaAllah he will be able to safeguard himself from activities which are harmful both for himself and the society.

As far as propagating the truth about God is concerned, I have totally relied upon the uncorrputed Book of God, that is Qur'aan. And for bringing truth to the fore concerning the incidences which totally changed our outlook towards one another for worst, I have used unbiased investigations made by honest people. It is totally up to the readers to judge and form their opinions.

In the end, I humbly request the respected readers to read this blog without any prejudice and pre concieved notions. InshaAllah, Allah will guide us all to the truth to make this world a better place to live in, both for ourselves and for the generation to come.

Assalaamualaikum bhai,

Thanks for the comments Nazar bhai.

1. The word verification is there to thwart any spam.

2. As for making blog short, bhai I would have loved to do so as people do not have time because they are too busy gaining perfect 10 by making a perfect dive straight into the hell (Diving is a sport in which athlete dives f rom a spring board from a certain height into the pool of water. If he makes minimum splash while hitting the water, he gets 10/10).

Anyways, I will inshaAllah try to make my messages short. You have also inspired me to write few lines on this.

Jazakumullah (May Allah reward you for this).
