Do not underestimate the power!!!Reader comment on item: The Voice of America, Silenced on Radical Islam Submitted by Mansoor (Pakistan), Mar 16, 2009 at 06:54 Power of Allah is beyond all your imaginations!!! This is a universal truth and many deny that due to their ignorance. Today I want to ask many questions to the contributors here. Just tell me, the technology, the media power and the propaganda so vividly propagated all around the world against Islam did any harm to this religion?? No, but infact recent surveys suggest that Islam is the fastest spreading religion of the world!! Why is it so??? http://edition.cnn.com/WORLD/9704/14/egypt.islam/ For Heaven's sake please leave Islam alone!! Or at least try to study Islam without biased approach. I see the remarks of most of the contributors here as misdirected and highly biased. Many of the people over here don't want to know any thing positive about Islam. They are somewhat shaken when they see Islam with the shadow of Taliban. Talibans are actually the followers of Islam who are only following some part of this religion. They have developed their awe on the people of the world through their so called barbaric approach (which is most significantly highlighted by the biased media). The thing which is hiding behind the curtains is their ability to control law and order situation in the areas of their control. It is not possible that you can gather so much support on the basis of heavy arms over your shoulder...try to understand that Talibans have won the support of common people which is deliberately hidden by the media!!. Talibans are mostly illiterate and their improvement and mildness can only be achieved through mediation rather than pounding bombs on them. This is turning them more aggressive. Islam is the religion which does not allow caste system or giving importance to someone on the basis of wealth or due to any political strength. Even the King can be prosecuted under true Islamic Sharia which is ironically not propagated by the West. Quran gives good news about heavenly rewards for those who follow this religon in true spirit. It also declares severe punishment to those who are violating Allah's law. Allah is all powerfull and has all the control over the world. We are failed to understand that!!! Just think that we were nothing, but then we came to this world through a complexed process which is scientifically proven to be natures most precious and delicate system. You must be aware that when male ejaculates semen in woman's womb it actually carries numerous sperms. When it enters the womb at that time out of these numerous sperms only one sperm can get life. Why can't you understand that only you were chosen to life and all other sperms were wasted in this process!!! When you are chosen then you are given a life with a span of considerable period and ability to go through the secrets of nature when you get knowledge through your studies and mostly through scientific studies. You gain knowledge, you raise your family, you live happily and moreover your life becomes steady till the time you start getting older and then losing all the strength and health and eventually the fate becomes a grave which is dark, with loneliness and you would be there lying helpless for a huge period!! My question is that, why we feel ourselves to be so unimportant. We are important that is why we were given life. We were the best among all those sperms that had started the race along with us but lost their lives behind. Why we are so stubborn in not understanding that through such a complex process when we are granted a healthier and prosperous life, did our creator ask any reward from us.??? Can we give any reward to our Lord???? No...we are so miniature when we see the hugeness of our universe, we are nothing, infact we have no value. There are trillions of stars and many galaxies are still out of reach of our eyes...Why can't we understand the greatness of our Creator??? You find it very easy to raise finger over Muslims but just go through the internet and find about the lives spent by renowned saints in Islam. Moreover our Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) who is most deliberately criticized by the anti Islamic forces, did not have a well built house till his demise. He was the sole ruler of newly born empire but he did not have any property, any wealth stockpile or any treasure valut!!! Did any body find the hidden treasure of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). Please understand that we are doing a great sin by penalizing Islam without having perfect knowledge. ... People have been properly warned by the Lord...and those making jokes of it are doing their own loss. With the name of Allah, the All-Merciful, the Very-Merciful. [82:1] When the sky will be cleft asunder, [82:2] and when the stars will disperse, [82:3] and when the seas will be burst forth, [82:4] and when the graves will be overturned, [82:5] then one will know what he sent ahead and what he left behind. [82:6] O man! What has deceived you about your Gracious Lord, [82:7] who created you, then perfected you, then brought you in due proportion? [82:8] He composed you in whichever form He willed. [82:9] Never! (i.e. one should never be heedless towards him.) But you deny the Requital, [82:10] while (appointed) over you there are watchers, [82:11] who are noble, writers (of the deeds), [82:12] who know whatever you do. [82:13] Surely the righteous will be in bliss, [82:14] and the sinners in Hell, [82:15] in which they will enter on the Day of Requital,and they will not (be able to) keep away from it. [82:17] And what may let you know what the Day of Requital is? [82:18] Again, what may let you know what the Day of Requital is? [82:19] A Day when no one will have power to do any thing for another! And command, on that Day, will belong to Allah (alone).
