Universal Brotherhood in Islam

 Title: Concept of Universal Brotherhood in Islam in the Light of Glorious Qur'an & Last Sermon of the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) Introduction: Universal Brotherhood is a fundamental principle in Islam, emphasizing the unity of humanity regardless of race, ethnicity, or social status. This concept is deeply rooted in the teachings of the Glorious Qur'an and exemplified in the Last Sermon of Prophet Muhammad (SAW). Actually, Islam clearly rejects all sorts of differences based on caste, colour, creed, ethnicity, wealth, riches, region, and country.

It is pertinent to mention here that the Glorious Qur'an clearly forbids any kind of division and...

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DEEN & RELIGION

Introduction In this blog article, I have tried to make you understand in detail the significant difference between "Deen" and "Religion" in the context of Islam . However, before describing the significant difference  between "Deen" and "Religion", it is quite pertinent to understand first what is Deen and what is Religion? So, let's define and understand these terms separately and later on compare and contrast these terms jointly. What is Deen in Islam?  The Arabic word "Deen"  (دين)  has three main meanings: religion, custom, and judgment. The term refers to the way of life Muslims must live in order to follow divine law, which includes their beliefs, character, and actions. The term is used 98 times in the Quran, each time with a different meaning.  Although the word "Deen" can be found in as many as 79 verses of the Qur'an, its precise definition has been the subject of some misunderstanding and disagreement due...

ISLAM IN SUBCONTINENT; ITS UNDERSTANDING AND PRACTICABILITY

Islam in Subcontinent  Background & Synopsis of Islam Islam is the Deen of harmony and peace that provides us with a comprehensive code of conduct. In the glorious Qur'an, Allah the Almighty declares it to be the best religion and the only one that is right for its adherents. Islam has been around as long as humans have existed.  From Adam (AS) to Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him), the last of the Prophets, Islam is the one and only Deen. It comes directly from Allah the Mighty, who revealed it to us through the Angel Jibra'el (AS) from heaven (Arsh-e-Azeem). It was never a human doctrine or school of thought that the Prophets of Islam were not permitted to modify it in any way.  Even though it is commonly held that various books and booklets (Sahifas) about various Islamic prophets, such as Prophet David (Dawood AS), Prophet Moses (Moosa AS), and Prophet Jesus Christ (Essa AS), were revealed, these books were thought to be distinct from one another.  However, this ...
