Last post by Wakas - August 25, 2025, 07:09:43 PMpeace,
One of my favourties:
41:53
We will show them Our signs/aayat in the horizons, and within themselves, until it becomes clear to them that it is the truth. Is it not enough that your Lord is witness over all things?
This is powerful to me because it is basically saying everywhere you look, study, search, from the inner to the outer world, it all points to the truth, as explained in Quran. This means pursuit of knowledge, of nature, science etc it all leads to one realisation. The Quran is not a book afraid of man's intellect. It asks us hundreds of questions, which is quite incredible, it's challenging us, its asking us to reflect, to wonder, and when you look around you realise its ayat/signs are everywhere.

Islamic Duties / The Blessings of Surah Yaseen ...
Last post by Ume Haider - August 20, 2025, 10:39:18 PMThere's a beautiful story narrated about a group of companions who once sat with the Prophet ﷺ and asked about the special chapters of the Qur'an. The Prophet ﷺ mentioned Surah Yaseen and said:
"Indeed, everything has a heart, and the heart of the Qur'an is Yaseen. Whoever recites Yaseen, Allah will record for him the reward of reciting the Qur'an ten times."
— (Tirmidhi, 2887)
When I first came across this narration, it struck me deeply. Imagine — one Surah, recited with sincerity, carrying the reward of reciting the entire Qur'an multiple times. That's why so many Muslims turn to Surah Yaseen not only for daily recitation but also in times of hardship, illness, and even at the final moments of life.
Let's talk about some of the well-known benefits together:
1. Ease at the Time of Death
The Prophet ﷺ advised: "Recite Yaseen over your dying ones." (Abu Dawood, 3121).
This shows that Surah Yaseen comforts the soul and makes the journey to the Hereafter easier. Many families recite it near their loved ones in their final moments.
2. Relief from Hardships
Ask anyone who has turned to Surah Yaseen during tough times, and they'll tell you how much peace it brings. Reciting it with sincerity can calm the heart and remind us of Allah's mercy when life feels overwhelming.
3. Immense Rewards
Because it's called the "heart of the Qur'an", reciting it carries multiplied rewards. It's a way to gain closeness to Allah without even realizing how much reward is piling up in your book of deeds.
4. Barakah in Daily Life
Many Muslims have the habit of starting their mornings with Surah Yaseen. They believe it fills the day with blessings, makes tasks easier, and protects from unexpected hardships.
Final Thought
Surah Yaseen isn't just a chapter we recite — it's like a spiritual companion. Whether it's for seeking Allah's forgiveness, finding calm in distress, or helping someone ease into the next life, its blessings are countless.
So the next time you open the Qur'an, maybe begin with Surah Yaseen. Recite it slowly, with Tajweed, and let its words sink into your heart.

Last post by shahrukhkhan - August 20, 2025, 10:17:26 PMAs-salāmu ʿalaikum,
The Qur'an is full of guidance, wisdom, and comfort. I'm curious to know from the respected members here:
Which verse gives you the most strength or inspiration in your daily life?
And why does it resonate with you?
Would love to hear your reflections.

Last post by miracle114 - August 02, 2025, 05:40:29 PMSalaam,
A timeless book of guidance cannot be restricted by history in fact it may limit the intended wisdom. The Qur'an needs no support or aide. It unravels itself when Allah's command comes.
Also,a "jihadi" following the Qur'an is not the same as a righteous pious person who follows the book sincerely.
Throughout the Qur'an, we see Allah's examples to mankind about how he relates the truth of past events that are of any concern and relevance since Allah is The All Witnessing and therefore testifies to All Truth.
May Allah guide us all to his Approval and eternal presence.

Last post by shahrukhkhan - July 31, 2025, 12:57:39 AMSalam all,
I've been reflecting on verses like Surah Ar-Ra'd 13:11 – "Indeed, Allah will not change the condition of a people until they change what is in themselves."
This seems to highlight personal responsibility and self-driven transformation. But I'm curious:
How far does the Qur'an encourage ongoing self-reform, even after one believes?
Is there a Qur'anic basis for the idea that faith requires constant re-evaluation and internal purification?
Appreciate your insights and Qur'anic references if possible.

Q&As with Joseph Islam - Information Only / Guidance, and succuor
Last post by fireheart47 - June 12, 2025, 11:08:13 AMDear Joseph Islam,
Could you please give me advice, your opinion, or any scripture in reference to the following questions?
How do we manage hatred towards others, even for seemingly just reasons or because of past grievances?
How do we continue to believe when it feels like Allah is not with us?
In your experience or stories of others, can people heal from sicknesses? How do we get there? Or how do we accept our situation?
Thank you,
Fireheart47

Last post by fireheart47 - May 17, 2025, 05:03:52 AMDear QM Forum,
Part of the reason why I had the courage and faith to look deeper into the Qur'an is because of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Years after I met a muslim and began to practice calligraphy, I asked questions about Hebrew-Arabic cognates and if Muslim theologians had written about certain topics like the use of the word "muhammed" as an adjective rather than a name.
I used AI chat bot at https://chat.chatgptdemo.net/ , which requires an ad blocker. I've also benefited from other technologies, like Root Search in Islamicity (https://www.islamicity.org/quransearch/?q=#), searchable Qur'an (https://qurano.com/ , requires ad blocker). I was recommended by a Catholic person with Jewish ancestry the ad blocker add-on for Firefox Browser uBlock Origin. After I made these posts, I also used Llama 3.0 at https://duck.ai to learn about other topics.
Strangely, I thought of the idea, where the angel Gabriel could be described as the strength of time, on my own, while I used Llama 3.0. Yet, I didn't ask it a question. Most often I tell it my beliefs, and through that process I think of new things that I didn't think of before. It is strange and frustrating, because I know some people will not believe or understand the nuanced truth. I am ashamed that I gained knowledge from AI, and want you to know how much it has influenced my thinking, because I want to be honest.
Most of the information I've shared was observed without the help of AI chatbot. Yet, without the AI chatbot, who knows if I would've been capable of making the next step. Who knows if I would've had faith strong enough to encourage me to search in the Qur'an and believe that the similarities between these religions are valid.
I feel ashamed that I write sloppily, and don't give as much attention to my forum posts as other works of text. The Qur'an is important, and it deserves the order and detail, which Joseph Islam demonstrates so well.
Allah knows. May we all be protected from dogmatic violent people, who would hurt or kill for religious reasons. May we repent and be forgiven, and be given the life Allah wants to build for us. May we be guided to prevent our sins, so we don't suffer more. May we see the bigger picture, so each other's sins become smaller and forgivable. May we receive succor from Allah, may we be comforted by Allah, may we find people who can do the will of Allah and give comforting words and compassion.
May we find peace where we live, and see the positive things about the world around us. May those words encourage each other to do good deeds and not destructive vengeance. May this all make sense in the future, so we can find peace.
Sincerely,
Fireheart47
