Waves under ocean

The holy Qur’an referred to a new scientific discovery that is in the deep of oceans there are waves and dark, let us read …

Scientists discovered that in the deep of oceans there are deep waves which are different from surface waves. Allah Almighty makes the parable of deeds of atheists and disbelievers as a man who lives in the deep of the sea where he is covered by a layer of deep waves that is covered by a layer of surface waves which is covered by darkness, this likeningis to demonstrate how those atheists by their deeds are far from the light of Allah (following principles and orders of Islam).

 

Allah Almighty says “ (Or [the state of a disbeliever] is like the darkness in a vast deep sea, overwhelmed with a great wave topped by a great wave, topped by dark clouds, darkness, one above another, if a man stretches out his hand, he can hardly see it! And he for whom Allah has not appointed light, for him there is no light.){Sûrat An-Nûr -The Light –verse 40}.

Glory to Allah, recent scientists found that discovery in 2007 and they didn’t expect that finding. Who told prophet Mohamed peace be upon him about the deep waves? Allah is the teller who says about Himself: ((He Alone) the All-Knower of the Gha'ib (unseen), and He reveals to none His Gha'ib (unseen).*Except to a Messenger (from mankind) whom He has chosen (He informs him of unseen as much as He likes)){Sûrat Al-Jinn -The Jinn -verse26-27}.

New miracle: No one year has more rain than another one,

Allah stated in Glorious Quran, sura al-Hijr [Stone land, Rock City] 15:21, ‘And there is not a thing but its (sources and) treasures (inexhaustible) are with Us; but We only send down thereof in due and ascertainable measures.’ Commentators of the Glorious Quran say: ‘There is no more rain in one year or less than other years. But, some people get rain while others are deprived.’ This interpretation was the opinion of our scholars more than seven centuries ago at a time when Europe was rich in myths and superstition. Our scholars have understood the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of His Messenger PBUH, to learn that the amount of rainfall every year is fixed and does not change. This is what the scientists in the twentieth century discovered. Our question to those skeptics who believe that the Qur'an is an ordinary book: ‘Where did Ibn Katheer [the renowned scholar of interpretation of Quran] who lived in the sixth century AH brought such information from? The answer is simply, from the Quran and Sunnah of the Prophet PBUH, who is reported to have said, ‘There is no specific year that has more rainfall than another, but rather Allah, the Almighty distributes it [i.e. the rainfall].’ [This Hadith is reported by AlHakim] Research has proven that the rainfall average is fixed on annual basis.

Scientists have discovered that the celestial bodies in this universe all move within an intended path or orbit. That is, the sun rotates along its own orbit, and so do the Earth, moon, stars and planets: all travel along a carefully calculated and precise orbit. Even if we take this observation down to atomic level, we find that electrons travel in a defined orbit around the atom’s nucleus, in a manner which resembles the orbital movements found in the solar system! Interestingly, the Qur’an eloquently describes this perfect universal harmony: {Each swims along in (its own) orbit (according to Law).} [Yaasin, 36:40].

Cupping: Effective Medical Treatment

Photo: Cupping: Effective Medical Treatment


By: Dr. / Zaghloul El-Naggar 

Jabir Ibn 'Abdullah (A.S.) narrated "the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said:


"If there is any effective remedy amongst your medical treatments, they are in cupping, drinking honey, and cauterization with the help of fire, but I do not like cauterization (in another narration, "and I prohibit my nation from cauterization.)."


Explanation of the Hadith


Cupping is a form of medical treatment that depends on creating a vacuum on the sick parts, or on certain predetermined zones of the body. Special suction cups, with two openings are used, as air is sucked from one opening, and the other is placed on the determined zone. The skin surface, to which the cup is attached, gets congested with blood through the negative pressure. Very small and superficial incisions are made in this congested skin, the length of which should not exceed 3 centimeters and no more than 1.5 mm in depth and blood is sucked through these incisions.


Cupping was used in many ancient civilizations, including Arabs before Islam. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) approved such use, and later it was transferred to Europe through Muslims in Andalusia, and still used up till today. The Prophet (PBUH) recommended the use of cupping in cases of a severe headache, which leads to an increase in blood pressure. It is also useful in cases of unilateral and migraine, severely twisted joints and generally speaking in cases of severe pain, all of which have been proved through medical research.


Cupping is similar in a way to acupuncture or certain massage techniques, as it stimulates the part suffering from pain to send pulses to the sensory and involuntary control centers in the brain, calling out for help. Immediately as the pulses or signals reach these centers, large amounts of chemicals and hormones are released from the affected part, and are sent to central areas in the brain. The brain sends its orders to various systems, which are responsible for the biological operations in the body, giving them orders to save the affected part. Medical research proved that the best treatment is that which the body performs by itself.


That is why the Prophet (PBUH) said:


"The cupper is a good servant (of Allah), as cupping release blood, relieves the spinal cord and enhances vision."


The fact that the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) recommended cupping as an effective way of treatment means the necessity of treating all diseases with all available scientific procedures. The Prophet (PBUH) said:


"There is healing for every illness, so if the right treatment is used, the patient is cured by the Will of Allah,"


And said:


"Take medicine (or treatment) O slaves of Allah! Allah the Almighty has made a cure for every disease, except for death."


Jabir Ibn 'Abdullah narrated that the Prophet (PBUH) was cupped on his thigh because of a severe twisting in his joint.


Anas Ibn Malik narrated that the Prophet (PBUH) was cupped on the back of his foot, while in a state of Ihram, because of a pain he was suffering in his foot. Ibn 'Abbas, moreover, narrated that the Prophet (PBUH) was cupped on his head while, in a state of Ihram, when he suffered from migraine.


Cupping was scientifically proved to be very effective in all the cases described by the Prophet (PBUH).

Housefly Falls into One's Drink

By: Dr. / Zaghloul El-Naggar


Abu Hurayrah ÑÖì Çááå Úäå narrated, "The Prophet (pbuh) said,


"If a housefly falls into the drink of anyone of you, he should immerse it completely in the liquid, then remove it, for one of its wings has the disease and the other has the cure."


Explanation of the Hadith


This Hadith means that the fly carries on one of its wings a disease, and on the other a cure from the same disease. When a fly falls into a container (of food or drink), it puts forward the wing carrying the microbe, as a self-defense. Imam Ibn Hajar said in his commentary on the hadith that one of the scholars observed that the fly protects itself with its left wing, so it can be deduced that it carries the cure or the antidote on the right wing. So if the fly is immersed in whatever it falls on, the antidote will destroy the venom or the microbe with the will of Allah.   Some people are not pleased with the idea of immersing a fly in one's food or drink. However, this can be only applied in cases of emergency. When, for example, someone is in a desert, having only little water or drink. Such a person has no choice but to do as the Prophet recommended. Otherwise, he will die from thirst or infection. If someone disdains eating that food or drink, he does not have to do so, but he does not have the right to disclaim the authenticity of the hadith. The hadith is strongly authentic, as it is narrated by Imam al-Bukhari.


  Flies are very common on earth. They are almost 87000 species. It has been scientifically proved that they feed on garbage and waste organic matter of the vast numbers of bacteria, viruses and other various microbes and germs.


  Bacteria are very small living organisms. They live in billions in one gram of agricultural land and in millions in one drop of saliva. The effect of bacteria on the biological life on earth is unlimited, without it no crops could grow, and without crops there would be no life for man and animals on earth. Most of the bacteria are harmless, but some cause several diseases.


  Viruses are, in fact, nucleic acids (either DNA or RNA). Allah the Almighty gave them the ability to enclose themselves by a protein coat, to form separate units called the "virion". The virus particle or the "virion" has the ability to invade living cells (host cell), inciting them to produce more viruses or destroying the tissues of this host cell. That is why viruses are responsible for many diseases, which affect plants, animals and man.


There is a type of virus, which infects, bacteria cells, known as "Bacteriophage." The killing type of these viruses is known as "Virulent Bacteriophage", while the non-killing type is known as "Temperate Bacteriophage". It is of the Divine Ability of Allah, Glorified be He, to create everything in this universe in pairs, so that, it is only Allah, Who is the One, Who has no partner. Thus, Allah created male and female, day and night, positive and negative, as He created the bacteria and the "Bacteriophage." It is only Allah, Who is the One, Who has no partner.


  Allah, the Almighty, gave the fly the ability to carry the germ on one wing and its antidote on the other. Otherwise the fly species would have perished by now, exposed to all these germs. However, they still exist in more than 87000 species.


  The fly carries the viruses of many diseases, which are consequently transferred to man's food, drink and body. Of these viral diseases are common flu, measles, mumps, chickenpox, warts, yellow fever, infectious liver diseases, some cases of paralysis, some types of cancer, and some chronic diseases of the central nervous system including multiple sclerosis.


 Viruses also cause many diseases, which effect cattle, sheep and birds. Some of these diseases are encephalitis, aphthous fever (foot and mouth diseases) and duck plague, which could be transferred to man through the infected animal. Some crops such as potatoes, tomatoes, bananas and sugarcane can also be destroyed by viral infections.


  "The virulent Bacteriophage" kills the bacterial cell that it invades in a very short time. While the "Temperate Bacteriophage" keeps the bacterial cell that it invades alive. It acquires a kind of immunity against the same virus or produce similar viruses. This explains why the fly carries pathogen on one wing and its antidote on the other.


   A group of Muslim researchers in Egypt and Saudi Arabia carried several experiments on containers of water, honey and different juices. They exposed them to the flies. Then they immersed some flies in some of these containers. The microscopic examination showed that the liquids in which no flies were immersed were full of bacteria and viruses, while the others where the flies were totally immersed had none.


  It was discovered that there are antidotes for pathogens, and that there are various types of bacteria and "Bacteriophages", only in the last decades of the 20th century.      


The Prophet Õáì Çááå Úáíå æ Óáã  alluded to these 1400 years ago, when humans knew almost nothing of the facts of modern science. But given this type of information with such accuracy, that one wing carries the antidote to the pathogen carried by the other, could only be of the Divine Revelation taught to the Prophet Õáì Çááå Úáíå æ Óáã  by Allah the Almighty

The Darkness under Sea



The Darkness under Sea

The holy verse:

God be he exalted says: (Or [the state of a disbeliever] is like the darkness in a vast deep sea, overwhelmed with waves topped by waves, topped by dark clouds, (layers of) darkness upon darkness: if a man stretches out his hand, he can hardly see it! And he for whom Allah has not appointed light, for him there is no light.) [Surat An-Nur, verse: 40].

Too Much Emphasis on the Fear of Death

Too Much Emphasis on the Fear of Death

The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “Whoever loves to meet Allah, Allah loves to meet them as well. Whoever hates to meet Allah, Allah hates to meet them.” 

When `Ā’ishah heard this, she said: “Is this because they hate death? We all hate death.”
