DO YOU HAVE ANSWERS FOR THESE QUESTIONS?
While I was cruising a website I came across the following set of questions:
Who are you? Why are you here? What is life really about? Why is your life the way it is? From where you came?
What really comes afterward? How do you sort through all the bullshit? How do you find balance?
What’s the larger context of reality within which we experience? What is behind experience?
What are polarities about? How can I develop the discernment necessary to sort through all the confusion during this important period in history? Why are we being lied constantly?
What are light and dark polarities? How are peace marchers actually feeding the dark side?
How are wrong doers actually feeding the light side?
Why do you still feel unsatified no matter what books you seem to read out there, in your search for self and the meaning of life? What is the larger nature of reality and what are the real factions which grapple for control? Why? What’s the real deal with aliens'?
Why has the population of Earth been consistently thwarted from expansion into space? What’s the agenda? What is incarnation all about? What is the truth behind genderization of bodies?
What does it all mean?
Indeed if a person in faith, for him these questions seem some what funny? But for people without proper religious guidance, these questions are much more vital for them. Yes, people who are deviated from the true path are searching answer for these questions for centuries. But indeed answers are very nearer to them. People in my region used to say a proverb “having butter in his hand, he is searching for gee” if we heat the butter it will melt and it will became gee. Like this having answer to their question in their own hands they are searching for answer in other side with out any result, they never going to find answer from those dark sides. Who can answer their questions for which they are searching?
If we want to know the working mechanism of any unknown, very new object in this world, from where we get the answer? From where? From its creator. In the same way, to know the answer about the universe, time, the day and night, purpose of creation, place from which we came, the place to were we are going to after our death, purpose of life, etc. we need to seek it from the Creator of those.
See what are the answers from the Supreme Creator about His creations and its purpose :
The main question is the origin of Universe. Get the answer.
Al-Quran (2:117) “To Him is due the PRIMAL ORIGIN of the heavens and the earth: When He decreeth a matter, He saith to it: "Be," and it is.”
Al-Quran (21:30) “Do not the Unbelievers see that the heavens and the earth were joined together (as one unit of creation), before we clove them asunder? We made from water every living thing. Will they not then believe?”
Al-Quran (51:47) “With power and skill did We construct the Firmament: for it is We Who create the vastness of space. “
A book which dates fourteen centuries before is answering the questions about the origin of the universes means, what’s the source of that Book?
Get the answer to the source and destination of human like, From where you came? What really comes afterward?
Al-Quran (10:4) “To Him will be your return- of all of you. The promise of Allah is true and sure. It is He Who beginneth the process of creation, and repeateth it, that He may reward with justice those who believe and work righteousness; but those who reject Him will have draughts of boiling fluids, and a penalty grievous, because they did reject Him.”
Al-Quran (22:5) O mankind! if ye have a doubt about the Resurrection, (consider) that We created you out of dust, then out of sperm, then out of a leech-like clot, then out of a morsel of flesh, partly formed and partly unformed, in order that We may manifest (our power) to you; and We cause whom We will to rest in the wombs for an appointed term, then do We bring you out as babes, then (foster you) that ye may reach your age of full strength; and some of you are called to die, and some are sent back to the feeblest old age, so that they know nothing after having known (much), and (further), thou seest the earth barren and lifeless, but when We pour down rain on it, it is stirred (to life), it swells, and it puts forth every kind of beautiful growth (in pairs).
Al-Quran (11:4) “To Allah is your return, and He hath power over all things."
Al-Quran (51:56) “And I (Allah) created not the jinn and mankind except that they should worship Me(alone).”
Al-Quran (49:13) “O mankind! WE CREATED YOU from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise (each other). Verily the most honoured of you in the sight of Allah is (he who is) the most righteous of you. And Allah has full knowledge and is well acquainted (with all things).”
Al-Quran (76:2) “Verily WE CREATED MAN from a drop of mingled sperm, in order to try him: So We gave him (the gifts), of Hearing and Sight.”
Al-Quran (6:94) "And behold! ye come to us bare and alone as We created you for the first time: ye have left behind you all (the favours) which We bestowed on you: We see not with you your intercessors whom ye thought to be partners in your affairs: so now all relations between you have been cut off, and your (pet) fancies have left you in the lurch!"
The above mentioned verses clearly demonstrate about your source and destination.
And get the answer for the question Why are you here? What your purpose of being here? What is life really about? What is behind experience?
If we understand the above mentioned Quranic verses its very easy to get answers for these set of questions.
This world is nothing but a test; it’s just a resting place. Allah tests different people in different ways. He tests somebody with wealth, power somebody with poverty, disease, fear, loss in business, government etc.. Allah says in Quran about this world in this way
Al-Quran (67:2) “He Who created Death and Life, that He may try which of you is best in deed: and He is the Exalted in Might, Oft-Forgiving;-“
Al-Quran (2:155) “Be sure we shall test you with something of fear and hunger, some loss in goods or lives or the fruits (of your toil), but give glad tidings to those who patiently persevere”
Al-Quran (21:35) “Every soul shall have a taste of death: and we test you by evil and by good by way of trial. to Us must ye return.”
Al-Quran (5:48) “…If Allah had so willed, He would have made you a single people, but (His plan is) to test you in what He hath given you: so strive as in a race in all virtues. The goal of you all is to Allah. It is He that will show you the truth of the matters in which ye dispute;”
Al-Quran (18:46) “Wealth and sons are allurements of the life of this world: But the things that endure, good deeds, are best in the sight of thy Lord, as rewards, and best as (the foundation for) hopes.”
Consider the answers for the questions like what are polarities about?
How can I develop the discernment necessary to sort through all the confusion during this important period in history? Why are we being lied constantly? What are light and dark polarities? How are peace marchers actually feeding the dark side? How are wrong doers actually feeding the light side? And regarding the question why are we being lied constantly?
These questions arises because the planet we’re living now are in the hands of followers of saitan, the forerunners of dajjal (see my article forerunner of dajjal http://forums.gawaher.com/index.php?act=...3&t=21412), they are liars by profession. They are dominating the world events for past 2 centuries. They are following their bad intentions inspired by the saitan’s. We are being continuously lied because of this. They are the followers of the saitan the devil. Saitan inspired them to corrupt the world, because he is the sworn enemy of mankind.
Al-Quran (53:23) “They follow nothing but conjecture and what their own souls desire!- Even though there has already come to them Guidance from their Lord!”
Whenever the wrong doers get the upper hand on the earth they will never fail to corrupt the earth.
We should aware of this people who are the advocates of the devil the saitan advocating his teaching in this world continuously. See what the Best Creator says about him:
Al-Quran (35:6) “Verily Satan is an enemy to you: so treat him as an enemy. He only invites his adherents, that they may become Companions of the Blazing Fire.”
Al-Quran (15:39) “(iblis) said: "O my Lord! Because Thou hast put me in the wrong, I will make (wrong) fair-seeming to them on the earth, and I will put them all in the wrong,”
Al-Quran (7:17) "Then will I assault them from before them and behind them, from their right and their left: Nor wilt thou find, in most of them, gratitude (for thy mercies)."
Al-Quran (30:41) “Mischief has appeared on land and sea because of (the meed) that the hands of men have earned, that ((Allah)) may give them a taste of some of their deeds: in order that they may turn back (from Evil).”
And one important thing, if you are trapped in the myth of eternal world, (i.e.) no beginning no end, then every thing is seems like unanswerable, mystical, disguisable and unbeatable. Such a kind of attitude never give you tranquility, peace of mind, happy, braveness, it will only leads you to depression, deep sorrow, misery, engagement in worse habits, and etc…
Using such eternal concept the wrong doers, the powerful personalities, the partners of the sworn enemy saitan will easily deviate you from the truth. Only belief in one God can help you to lead a peaceful and courageous life. What ever may be, it will one day surely will come to light, Allah will surely uncover the all the things which was considered as top secrets, what every may be Allah knows all; He has power over all thing. So such thinking will help you a lot, you will never mind about the mystery, UFOs, Aliens etc... If any body threaten you with such mystery, you will easily overcome it by saying Allah know all, anything neither harm me nor benefit me with out His permission, if you are a true believer. And there is nothing is hidden from the Almighty Allah in the whole universe.
Al-Quran (3:5) “From Allah, verily nothing is hidden on earth or in the heavens.”
Al-Quran (31:16) "O my son! (said Luqman), "If there be (but) the weight of a mustard-seed and it were (hidden) in a rock, or (anywhere) in the heavens or on earth, Allah will bring it forth: for Allah understands the finest mysteries, (and) is well-acquainted (with them).””
Al-Quran (57:6) “….and He has full knowledge of the secrets of (all) hearts.”
Al-Quran (6:3) “And He is Allah in the heavens and on earth. He knoweth what ye hide, and what ye reveal, and He knoweth the (recompense) which ye earn (by your deeds).”
Al-Quran (6:59) “With Him are the keys of the unseen, the treasures that none knoweth but He. He knoweth whatever there is on the earth and in the sea. Not a leaf doth fall but with His knowledge: there is not a grain in the darkness (or depths) of the earth, nor anything fresh or dry (green or withered), but is (inscribed) in a record clear (to those who can read). “
And if you know value of this world you can indeed live a wonderful, fearless life.
Allah says
Al-Quran (3:14) :”Fair in the eyes of men is the love of things they covet: Women and sons; Heaped-up hoards of gold and silver; horses branded (for blood and excellence); and (wealth of) cattle and well-tilled land. Such are the possessions of this world's life; but in nearness to Allah is the best of the goals (To return to).”
Al-Quran (57:20) ”Know ye (all), that the life of this world is but play and amusement, pomp and mutual boasting and multiplying, (in rivalry) among yourselves, riches and children. Here is a similitude: How rain and the growth which it brings forth, delight (the hearts of) the tillers; soon it withers; thou wilt see it grow yellow; then it becomes dry and crumbles away. But in the Hereafter is a Penalty severe (for the devotees of wrong). And Forgiveness from Allah and (His) Good Pleasure (for the devotees of Allah.. And what is the life of this world, but goods and chattels of deception?”
(also see ‘An atomic bomb to arrogance http://forums.gawaher.com/index.php?show...21532&hl=)
And while you see the powerful nations and powerful leaders, who are capable of global domination, causing destruction whoever they wish, never let your heart to give room to have even smaller than an atom amount of fear. On the face of the Earth many number of great nations and powerful person came and wiped out from there because of their arrogance. See what Allah says about this:
Al-Quran (6:6) “See they not how many of those before them We did destroy?- generations We had established on the earth, in strength such as We have not given to you - for whom We poured out rain from the skies in abundance, and gave (fertile) streams flowing beneath their (feet): yet for their sins We destroyed them, and raised in their wake fresh generations (to succeed them).”.
Al-Quran (6:11) “Say: "Travel through the earth and see what was the end of those who rejected Truth."”
So there is no need to worry and feel sad or have fear for any thing. Whatever happens it’s already happened in our destiny.
Everything has a divine purpose created by Almighty Allah. Allah says in His divine book:
Al-Quran (57:22) “No misfortune can happen on earth or in your souls but is recorded in a decree before We bring it into existence: That is truly easy for Allah.”
Al-Quran (57:22) “In order that ye may not despair over matters that pass you by, nor exult over favours bestowed upon you. For Allah loveth not any vainglorious boaster,”
Only a true Mumin (believer) can have such peaceful, fearless, happy life in both the world, because his weapon is two as said by our beloved prophet Muhammed (Peace Be Upon Him).
The Prophet(PBUH) said: "I am leaving you two things and you will never go astray as long as you cling to them -- they are the Book of Allah and my Sunnah." [Reported by Al- Haakim - Sahih].
