Earthquakes that are happening these days are among the signs which Allaah uses to frighten His slaves. All the earthquakes and other things which happen and cause harm and injury to people are because of shirk and sins, as Allaah says (interpretation of the meanings):

“And whatever of misfortune befalls you, it is because of what your hands have earned. And He pardons much” [al-Shoora 42:30]

“Whatever of good reaches you, is from Allaah, but whatever of evil befalls you, is from yourself” [al-Nisaa’ 4:79]


“And We sent not the signs except to warn” [al-Israa’ 17:59]

“We will show them Our Signs in the universe, and in their own selves, until it becomes manifest to them that this (the Qur’aan) is the truth. Is it not sufficient in regard to your Lord that He is a Witness over all things?” [Fussilat 41:53]

“Say: ‘He has power to send torment on you from above or from under your feet, or to cover you with confusion in party strife, and make you to taste the violence of one another.’” [al-An’aam 6:65]

Al-Bukhaari narrated in his Saheeh from Jaabir ibn ‘Abd-Allaah (may Allaah be pleased with him) that when the aayah (interpretation of the meaning) “Say: ‘He has power to send torment on you from above” was revealed, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, “A’oodhu bi wajhika (I seek refuge in Your Face”; “or from under your feet”, he said, “A’oodhu bi wajhika (I seek refuge in Your Face).” (Saheeh al-Bukhaari, 5/193).

(Abu’l-Shaykh al-Isbahaani narrated from Mujaahid concerning the Tafseer of this aayah, “Say: ‘He has power to send torment on you from above”: (this means) al-Sayhah (the shout or tumult), stones and strong wind; “or from under your feet”, (means) earthquakes and being swallowed up by the earth.)
 
Allah only afflicts people with they deserve and what they can bare, if they cant bare it they either die or the affliction is removed :)

PEACE
 
if the person sincerely repents from his sins and goes back to the right path i.e. back to the true religion then Allah is oft forgiving and most merciful.

You think that the people of Iran brought this on themselves? Right down to the children who will have died?

Besides you said "Allah only afflicts people with they deserve and what they can bare, if they cant bare it they either die or the affliction is removed"

Which is meaningless because it leaves no other options. Either they can bear it or they can't. If they can't either they die or it is lifted. What option is left? It is not untrue, it is just trite in the sense that it is a statement of the obvious.
 
hhhmmmm,

Interesting replies. But then if Islam is the way why is it not the West that he targets? Let's face it Islam don't exactly adore the Western culture and if we look at Islamic morality then surely the west are the worse sinners (according to islam).......

Why does he seem to inflict death to children within cultures that are striving to be as Islamic as thay can yet the West could not care 2 monkeys about it, yet are left to enjoy such fruits?............

lol i've faced this fact ages ago! i as a muslim cant stand the western culture. Due to the women i cant look anywhere apart from the floor, i avoid so many shops due to the music, you cant get on a bus wivout seeing a dirty poster sumwhere its disgusting. This civilization is slowly losing all its morals. aah ur question is very good, let me explain how it works.

The ignorant are left to enjoy there so called "fruits". They dwelve deeper and deeper till one day Allah takes it away and leaves them in despair. Do you kno why he allowed them to dwelve? So they may repent, its basically giving them a chance, when he see's that they are so ignorant that they are just lost thats when he strikes. Now lets think about all the people who have lost there so called "love" and all the people who are suffering... im sure even you root have some experience of what im talking about. Thinking ur happy doing that which is clearly wrong but then one day having it taken away... this is whats happening to the west. Its a slow process, but it happens! As for the third world countries and such they are in the same predicament, every1 has there own unique way of life, but certainly its all evaluated on an equal level.

Peace :)

I am glad you mentioned morals:

Quote from a new UK study - The Sex and the City image of women seeking casual encounters for pleasure does not quite fit the latest research. Nine out of 10 women interviewed in-depth about their views said they thought one night stands were immoral.

I am proud of the West and what has been achieved.
 
^ btw the things i mentioned above are about "individuals". Indivuals will hav there ecstacy and hav it removed. It doesnt always happen to a huge group of people together.

:peace:

Hmmm, isn't it a Muslim position that not a feather drops from a bird's wing without it being God's will? Are there any natural phenomena in Islamic science?

You might think that is a silly question but I have read changes to "Islamify" Pakistan's science curriculum.
