...far from a feminist movement, but the Quran does have specific outlines regarding the rights and limitations of how females should be treated in an Islamic cultures. The timeline that surrounded revelation of the Surah An Nisa was not explicitly defined, but it is believed that after the Battle of Uhd there was a need for some guidance on the care of the widows and orphans that followed the conflict. Knowing that the prophet Mohammed was an orphan himself, and had four daughters, it is natural to believe that the role and statute of women were raised as a result of his influence. The Quran discusses several facets of the rights of women. The fact that women can be in line for any inheritance is a revelation to most. Passage 4:7 describes that a daughter can be in line to receive inheritance from her parents. A husband can pass an inheritance along to his wife, and in 4:176 is states that a woman can receive inheritance from her brother, if has no children. The ownership of property, wealth and the distribution of wealth is discussed at more length when it comes to the dowry that a man pays for the hand of a maiden in marriage. Verse 4:4 highlights that the dowry be willingly given to the woman with no expectation of a return. Her decision to share a portion of that dowry with her husband is a decision that is reserved for her. The civil rights of women in the realm of marriage and divorce are mentions in the Niqa and the Quran. Women cannot be married without their...

...Miracles in Al Quran Prophet Mohammed (Sal), as per the expressions in the Quran was an “Ummi”, that mean that he didn’t know how to read or to write. 1400 years ago, there were no advanced computers, which could organize hundreds of thousands of words and create equal number of words on the fundamental concepts. If you think about the fact that the revelations came during the last days of his life and he didn’t know when the Quran could be completed, then it can be seen that the Quran has been designed by a divine force. The word Devil and Angel, which represents two opposite sides of good and bad in spiritual realm, are repeated 88 times in the Quran. The Afterlife is the reflection of Earth. These two fundamental words of religion in the Quran are repeated 115 times each. The word HOT is repeated 4 times in the Quran. The word COLD is repeated 4 times in the Quran. The word GOOD PEOPLE is repeated 6 times in the Quran. It is interesting to note that the word GOOD PEOPLE has been repeated twice as more as compared to BAD PEOPLE in order symbolize that the mercifulness of Allah is more than his wrath. The word BAD PEOPLE is repeated for 3 times in the Quran. In the Quran, it is stated that there are 7 gates to Hell. In the Hadiths, it is stated that there are 8 gates to Heaven. The single digit difference will also show its wisdom in number of words. In Quran, the word Heaven is repeated 78 times, while the word Hell is repeated 77 times. In the Quran, the word “RASUL”...

...Journal 1: Islam “ Is He not closer than the vein of your neck? You need not raise your voice, for he knows the secret whisper, and what is yet more hidden… He knows what is in the land and in the sea; no leaf falls but he knows it’ nor is there a grain in the darkness under the earth, nor a thing, green or sere, but it is recorded (Smith 238).” In this part of the book smith is showing how Muslims view their God Allah. Showing that he is omnipotent and everywhere at the same time. Also, to not show disrespect to Allah by raising your voice. I found this very surprising at how similar it is to Christianity. To find out that they viewed Jesus as a prophet as well simply blew my mind. Seemed like from the outside growing up the Muslims were so different from Christians yet our religion is intertwined with theirs. Muslims believe in one God as do Christians. They even believe that Jesus lived and died unlike Christians though they just view Jesus as a prophet and not the son of God. Yet Christians and Muslims are portrayed as hating one another in main stream media yet our views on life are very similar. Even the teachings of not stealing and killing another man are agreed upon. So strange that two religions so intertwined hate each other so much. Espically when Muslims think that Christians are going to heaven as well. Unlike Christians who believe that Muslims are incorrect. Seems that if people would only broaden their horizon when it comes to informing themselves...

...Comparison of Book of John versus Quran – Chapter 4, Al Nisa, Women The purpose of this paper is to provide my layman’s comparison of The Book of John from the Bible and Chapter 4, Al Nisa, Women of the Quran. My primary impression of the two books are that they are vastly different in how they read. The Book of John reads like a story, a narrative per say while Chapter 4 of the Quran reads much like a legal document or contract. The two books are very different and deliver very different messages to the reader. The Quran, Chapter 4 focus’ on women, it outlines their rights and their obligations. This chapter covers subjects such as a woman’s rights, how orphans are to be treated, inheritance, their obligations, modesty, behavior, tremendous and unparalleled sins, ethical issues, weapons, polygamy and men’s superiority over them. Female orphans can marry their guardian, if they wish. She is entitled to her fair dower. However, if she has poor relatives then they should be present at the time her inheritance is disbursed so that they may claim a share of it, that way they are not disappointed. If a woman is not an orphan and inherits from a family members death there is a very distinct division of property. Women (daughters) are entitled to a one-sixth share. A man (sons) would receive the equivalent of two sisters, or one-third. If an adult child dies and has no heirs then the parents inherit their property, one-third to the mother, two-thirds to the father. There are...

...Islam Islam is a monotheistic religious tradition that developed in the Middle East in the 7th century C.E. Islam, which literally means "surrender" or "submission," was founded on the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad as an expression of surrender to the will of Allah, the creator and sustainer of the world. The Quran, the sacred text of Islam, contains the teachings of the Prophet that were revealed to him from Allah. The second-largest religion in existence (behind Christianity) and the dominant religion in more than twenty countries, Islam is believed to be practiced by over one fifth of the world’s population. The Islamic teaching is that Islam as a religion has been practiced by the righteous since the creation of mankind and that all the prophets of God preached the same message. Many prophets were given scriptures to guide their nations and communities. Muslims believe in the scriptures that were revealed to the prophets before Prophet Mohammad, particularly, The Psalms of David, The Torah and The Bible. However Muslims believe that the last revealed scripture is The Holy Quran, and it is the only revealed scripture that has not been changed by human additions or deletions since its revelation 1400 years ago. The Absolute: Like Jews and Christians, Muslims also believe in one God. The belief in the existence of One God is the first article of Muslim’s faith. Muslims called god “ALLAH”. Allah (God) is the most High and Exalted, the Creator and the Sustainer of all...

...The Burning of a Quran The burning of the Quran on March 22, 2011 was “an act of extreme intolerance and bigotry”. This is how Barak Obama labeled the act after violent rioting in Afghanistan. What took place was a horrible tragedy, which left 24 people dead. Six of which were U.N. workers. That was one incident that was the result of the Koran burning. In this conflict with a whole culture, the disrespect of their religion should not be a tactic by anyone who would like to see it end in peace. *The Quran Burning was wrong and should not have happened. The mock trial that was conducted was wrong because it was opinion based. The Pastor who conducted the trial and said that the Quran was found guilty, by of people all over Florida. Who were these people? How were they selected to give their opinion? If such a grave decision was to be put to opinions, then a Face book page dedicated to stopping the act should have been taken into consideration. The result was in direct correlation with the act. After the act was condemned by President Karzai, the Afghan president, protestors took the streets after prayers. The protest began peacefully but became violent preacher expounded on the frequency of Quran burning. *The burning was justified and did not cause the violence A “jury” of people from all over Florida, who debated the radicalism of Islam, deemed the religion of Islam a violent religion.

...texts in the Islamic religion these are the Quran, The Sunna, and the Sufi. The Quran is the holy book of the Muslims. It literally means the recitation (Zwemer 2002). It is the most holy text of the religion and central to the faith. It is also the best-known sacred text of Islam. The Muslims claimed that Allah handed down the words of the Quran to Mohammed through an angel named Jibril (Zwemer 2002). It was composed for a period of approximately 20 years sometime in 610 CE to 630 CE. Quran literally means recitation. The Muslims considered this text as a miracle and a proof of Mohammed’s prophethood. The Muslim believed that the Quran is the final authority when it comes to matters of faith and doctrine. It is considered divine and sacred. However, although the Quran is the most holy and sacred text of the Islamic religion it is not the sole source of inspired message and tradition among the Muslim. The Muslim as of equal importance to the faith also views the Sunna. Sunna means a clear path. The Muslim considered the Sunna as the record of what the prophet had said, done, condoned or condemned (Zwemer 2002). In other words, the Sunna is the complete biography of the prophet. Here, it discussed the Mohammed’s customs, practices teachings and sayings. The Sunna give the Muslim believer an idea on how Mohammed live on earth and how he followed the teachings of the Quran. It is a guide to all Muslim as they apply the principles of Quran in their life. The Muslims believe that...
