Sayings and Preachings of Hazrat Ali (as)

While the warp of society is the individual person and the woof is social order, the unit of
the design is the family. Families in which mutual understanding, sincerity and tenderness
reign, form details of a harmonious pattern. But a family in confusion and disarray
distorts and mars the pattern.
The instinct for survival is innate in human beings. Producing children is the expression of
one urge of this instinct, for a child seems like an extension of one's own personality, and a
guarantee of the continuance of the same life-force. The primary origin of the urge to
found families is sought by many thinkers in this instinct for survival.
The need to feed and support a family incites a man to industrial productivity.
Other thinkers hold that the primary urge towards family-founding was merely the sex
instinct; others favour the gregarious instinct; others regard wedlock as a mere
commercial transaction between families entered into for the profit of both.
In fact, communal living in society requires families as its units of construction. To
degrade the pure love between husband and wife merely to sex, profit or protection, is to
deny human nature at its highest.
Some say that, since in the inchoate days of human living the woman as a weaker being
could not exist except under a man's protection, family life is merely a feminine institution
imposed on man. This is manifest nonsense: for it ignores a man's need of woman, which
may be different from woman's need of man, but is just as deeply and inextricably a part of
his nature. True, man has to be the breadwinner in most cases. But he needs his mate as a
partner in happiness, in joy and in sound living. In marriage is the end of loneliness. Each
sex needs the other. This is why "male and female made He them."
God implanted the sex instinct. God created sex differences. He created the survival
instinct, the security instinct and the society instinct of gregariousness. All these were part
of His providence in preparing mankind to be His joyful family Sociologists give each
instinct its due weight in the scheme. They say that the exact role of each instinct varies
with the changes in social structure. In primitive society the need to find food and housing
is of primary importance. In the ancient agricultural community the need for children
became paramount since many hands make light work. Today the sex urge has come very
much to the fore, since humanity has devised means to achieve adequate food, satisfactory
housing and machines to do the work. But over and above the instincts, the urge to love
and the need to be loved are amongst the highest attributes of human nature.
Islam answers the call of nature affirmatively, with its insistence on the family as the best
safeguard of public virtue, and its asseveration that it is the only right and legitimate way.
It is written in the Sura XVI: Nahl- "The Bee" verse 72: "God has made mates for you of
your own nature and made for you of them children and grandchildren and posterity, and
provided for you sustenance of the best. Are they then going to believe in vain things and
not be grateful for God's favours?"
Islam sets out to protect young people from being led astray by the strength of the Godimplanted
sexual urge in the years before their character and conscience have matured
and their will is governed by discretion. That is why it lays on parents the responsibility of I
admonishing youth, and of imparting rules of. life and guidelines of prudence which will
lead to godliness and the natural use of the power of procreation. It also holds parents
responsible for arranging early I marriages for those who are mature enough to wed.
Young people not yet I economically capable of supporting a family may find the thrust of
the sex urge so strong that, without the guiding hand of their parents on the 1 reins, the
horses of nature may run away with them and carry them into danger or into the trap of
illicit sex. Parents must steer the life-force into I its God-given legitimate channels where
peace of mind and calm of conscience accompany the happiness of a shared life.
The Prophet is reported to have preached thus from the pulpit of the mosque: "O Muslim
community! Your daughters are like ripe fruit on a tree. Fruit must be picked at its
optimum moment; otherwise the sun or other agencies will rot or spoil it.

Islam and the Family

Stunning scientific facts that the Noble Qur’an and the illustrious Prophetic Hadeeth informed us of over 1400 years ago, at a time when no one had even the slightest knowledge of such facts. Then comes modern scientific discoveries confirming their accuracy and authenticity, thereupon becoming one of the testaments and proofs of that Muhammad (salutations peace of Allah be upon him) was a prophet and messenger.

Islam and the Discoveries of Modern Science

Introduction
The Qur'an has been without doubt the most influential book in the history of mankind, in the same way as the great Prophet to whom it was revealed has been the most influential of men. Together they have heralded a new and ultimate era in the history of mankind. This influence is bound to increase with the development of man's awareness of the higher dimensions of human existence and with the removal of the obstacles that bar humanity from its Godward journey. Neither prose nor poetry, it surpasses all human composition with the celestial music of its rhythms,
the profundity of its meanings, its universality of appeal, its wonderful clarity, eloquence, sublime rhetoric, and above all its deep and passionate concern for the good of all human beings, which permeates all its chapters and verses. The beauty and sublimity of the Qur'anic discourse is something which has to be discovered directly by everyone to the extent of his capacity and effort, for the richness of the Qur'an is inexhaustible.
Unlike other masterpieces of world literature and scriptures, whose interest and appeal is limited to an audience with a particular literary taste or some religious creed, the Qur'an is the book of the ordinary human being, and meant for each and every human being. It addresses every human individual qua human being and creature of God.
Since the first century of Hijrah, continuous efforts have been made by Muslims to make the meanings of the Qur'an accessible to non-Arab communities. There have also been several unfortunate attempts to translate the Qur'an with a hostile intent or deviant purpose. In such cases, the great healer, the Qur'an, has only aggravated the sickness of those who approached it with a malicious motive, and this great spring of spiritual life has had the effect of the deadliest of poisons.
Despite the enormous amount of effort that has been made during the past centuries and notwithstanding the numerous translations that have appeared in many languages of the world and the new ones that continue to appear almost every year, an error free translation of the Qur'an in any language - including Persian and Urdu which have been closest to the Qur'anic culture-still remains an unfulfilled dream. Apart from matters pertaining to literary expertise in classical Arabic and the target language,
familiarity with the vast field of Qur'anic sciences and especially with the hermeneutic tradition of the past 14 centuries and the works of major exegetes is essential for the translator of the Qur'an.
The Qur'an is the book of life meant to last until the Day of Judgment. Its meanings and concerns are perennial and everlasting. Its roots are firm, and its branches are in heaven; it gives its produce every season by the leave of its Lord (14:25). It is an exhaustible source of meaning, meeting the needs of changing times, though its words and diction remain fixed and unchangeable. Thus the human effort to extract its meanings is an unending task of interpreting and understanding the Qur'an, an understanding that links the eternal to the temporal, the terrestrial to the celestial, the mundane to the transcendent, and the relative to the Absolute.
Hence in every era efforts have to be made to translate the Book in the language of the day and to interpret it in the light of accumulated human knowledge and Qur'anic scholarship. In view of this perpetual necessity, there is the need to develop a sound and systematic methodology for translating and interpreting the Qur'an in different languages of humankind, for to translate the Qur'an is to interpret it.
For the purposes of such a project it might be essential to undertake a study of the existing translations and to evaluate them from the viewpoint of literary strength, loyalty to the meanings of the original, propriety and precision of the words and expressions used in the translation, and, above all, the translator's degree of familiarity with the exegetical tradition and the corpus of hadith narrated from the Prophet (S) and the Imam's of the Prophetic Household (a).
They are the interpreters of the Qur'an par excellence, for it is they who are the first addressees of the Qur'an, and to them one must refer for settling questions relating to Qur'anic hermeneutics as well as for authoritative interpretation in cases of disagreement in interpreting Qur'anic verses al1d determining the Qur'anic viewpoint concerning various issues.
That which could be very useful in this regard is some kind of a manual that might offer almost a verse to verse guidance to the translator, especially if the translation is being done from existing translations and the relavant works are not accessible to the translator.

The Qur'an and its Translators

Spiritual Science from Dhua-e-Qoomail and Sahifa-i-Kamilah; Almost all the educated persons, who do not believe in GOD are psychic and spiritually ill. They have imaginary or real fear complex. In their hearts and minds, there is unrest. Whether they take tranquilizers or any other pills or remedies, the doctors of medicines have no cure for them. Here comes Allah Kareem's Verses and Duas that create peace in human heart.

Hajj (pilgrimage) means visiting the House of Allah (Ka‟bah), and performing acts which are called „Manasik‟ (those worshipful acts which have been ordered to be performed there), and it is obligatory on a person once in his lifetime, provided that he fulfills the following conditions:
1- He/She should be Baligh.
2- He/She should be sane and free.
3- Because of proceeding to Makkah for Hajj, he/she should not be compelled to forsake an obligatory act which is more important than Hajj, nor should he/she be obliged to commit a haraam act, avoidance of which is more important than Hajj.
4- He/She should be capable of performing Hajj, and this depends upon number of factors:

Hajj Rituals

Although Muslims nowadays, especially youth, claim that they love their Messenger ; their deeds contradict their claims, may be because they do not know how really to love him!In Modern life, all things have mixed up, and evil prevailed . Therefore, young people and youth always say :"we cannot find a good example to be followed ". Instead of searching for a good example , they take prominent thinkers , actors , players or singers as their examples!!

Thus, they replace something high with a low alternative!Accordingly, there is an urgent need for reminding ourselves, our children, and youth of the correct way to be a good example, and of the right person ,who deserves to be followed and taken as an example!The few coming lines are an attempt to reformulate the picture of being an ideal example-that deserves to be followed-and to implant this picture from childhood to create a generation of good youth who can, themselves , be good examples for others.

During her preparation of this booklet , the author hoped that Allah may help her to be endowed with some of the characteristics of the Messenger (PBUH) … and now she hopes the same for her readers.
