اللَّهُ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ الْحَيُّ الْقَيُّومُ لاَ تَأْخُذُهُ سِنَةٌ وَلاَ نَوْمٌ لَهُ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الأَرْضِ مَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يَشْفَعُ عِنْدَهُ إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِهِ يَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَمَا خَلْفَهُمْ وَلاَ يُحِيطُونَ بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ عِلْمِهِ إِلاَّ بِمَا شَاءَ وَسِعَ كُرْسِيُّهُ السَّمَاو َاتِ وَالأَرْضَ وَلاَ يَئُودُهُ حِفْظُهُمَا وَهُوَ الْعَلِيُّ الْعَظِيمُ
In the name of Allah (God) the Most Merciful, and Compassionate Allah (God)
There is no god but He,
The Living, the Everlasting,
Slumber seizes Him not, neither sleep,
To Him belongs all that is in the heavens and the earth.
Who is there that can intercede with His, except by His leave?
He knows what lies before them and what is after them,
And they comprehend not anything of His Knowledge save as He wills.
His throne comprises the heavens and the earth,
The preserving of them fatigues Him not,
And He is the All-High, All-Glorious.
[Al-Quran: Surat al-Baqarah, Ayah 255]
whwere in the Quran are the 5 pillars listed (just curious really)
:bump1:
i am not sure what to really say here except i have been feeling drawn of Late to Islam. Christianity is such a huge mess and maze of dogmas and doctrines i cannot stand it. And trying to study "the bible' soo hard with sooo many dofferent versions and internal contradictions even in the clearest word for word translations ....i have felt so lost so long trying to figure out which church is true..which church sigh.. it has been a heart aching journey.
The Quran.... ahh yess the Quran (i have Albdullah Yusuf Ali's 11th edition) Is so pure both from a preservation stand point..but also the reading (even if i dont know arabic..the english text is so soul-filling [dont know if "soul" is a proper word in Islam ])
what i have learned of the Quran helps me soo much
I love S.56 8-38
please share with me any soul-filling...comforting/joying verses that have helped you please...i Love the Quran!!:thumbs_up:'( (happy tears) :happy:
thank you all for good responses...
1.)does the quran have any verses concerning how one can tell what is true? i mean..how can i be certain (besides through having a feeling or the 5 physical senses) can i arrive at the truth of something?
in other words is there a way that is certain that the certainty of truth can be established?
2.) are there any pronounciation guides for the shahada?
I have been feeling more convinced about Islam and have felt more of a desire to say the shahada..i am just wanting to be sure that if i do i will not regret it later.
