Hi guys. Is there the belief among Muslim that they are the Final people? This verse makes it clear for me that every people have a time. For example Judaism ended with the Proclamation of Christ and Christianity ended with the Proclamation of Prophet Muhammad. Are Muslims the last people or will something follow? My understanding from this verse is that there is a people to come after. There is also a Hadith which testifieh to this truth:

Surah Al-Hamd says Allah is the master of Day of Judgment. MAALIKI YAWMID DEEN. Master of the Day of Judgment. There is no doubt that Allah is Master of day of judgement. I want to know what is the role of Imam Hassan (A.S) and Imam Hussain (A.S) on the day of Judgement who are master of youth of Paradise? If Allah is solely going to judge us then why they are Master of youth of Paradise. What is their role as a master of youth of paradise.

I know many of us (believers) have been through this, and I personally experienced my boat sinking and I know it is tough getting it back up. But if you won't understand why you have to get back up then you're definitely going to drown. My point of bringing this topic up is not to scare you away by telling you about the torment of hellfire or the agony in the grave, surely I'll do that by the end of our short exchange, but before everything else I want you to know what benefits and positive change prayers can bring to your life! BENEFITS OF PRAYING There are actually a lot; me and you could go on and on about how practicing Islam can benefit you and the people around you, but this once, let me just mention a few of those that I experienced first-hand. Health Prayer can be a source of exercise for most people. It keeps check on your physical fitness. All the obligatory acts in prayers benefit greatly to ones health. For example, going to ruku and sajda and tash'had saves one from back pain and knee-joints pain. Prayer also wards off many illnesses. Down to Earth When you go down in sujood, it gives you a feeling of how small and insignificant you are in front of all the blessings and creations of Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى. He made so much, and still blesses you and showers upon you from good. Prayer kills your ego and brings you closer to Allah and the reality. Focusing on how you're alone in this world, and how only Allah is your supporter and benefactor even in the time of adversity. Strengthens the heart and the belief Prayer gives you the strength that you are lacking when facing adversity. It becomes a driving force when met with a lot of short-comings. It strengthens ones resolve to keep moving forward and facing new challenges while knowing that Allah never burdens a soul more than what it can bear. Closeness to Allah When we recite the verses sent down to us Humans by Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى, we naturally feel close to Him. His words are the reflection upon our own-selves. When we make dua to Him and kneel down to Him, it shows that we are ready to give in our desires for pleasing Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى. And that: He is the only "one" we can turn to in the time of adversity... There's nobody else, is there? Countenance and Spiritual Pleasantness Did you know that prayers make your face and spirit brighter? Who wouldn't want their face glowing with happiness and zeal. This not only allows others to look at you in good light but also brings a smile to their faces (especially your family). And it takes off a lot of tension from their shoulders (for some reason). Keeps you away from sins and keeps sins away form you Now this is note-worthy, because both sound just about the same. So where lies the difference? The difference is that there in you will come a sense of responsibility and a sense of accountability once you start praying. You will become more aware of your performance near Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى, and you'd want to please him more and more. Who wouldn't want beautiful reward from Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى?And alternatively, Allah will keep you away from sins with his authority over you if he finds your actions pleasing. And no doubt, he is the most merciful and the most benevolent. Along with oft-forgiving. Gets rid of laziness and grooms punctuality Most of the time we are extremely lazy when it comes to our responsibilities and obligations. But once we start being punctual in prayers habitually, we (Insha'Allah) will become more aware of the limited time we have and the utilization of it. Prayer somewhat grooms the instinct of time within you. When you start praying five times a day, you'll begin to realize if you're spending the remaining time the right way. You will have thoughts like: Am I fulfilling my religious obligations correctly? Is Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى going to be pleased enough with the current me? Have I been listening to every words my parents say? Have I done the job that I must in time? Sense of Accountability I know I am kinda repeating myself here, but I couldn't just skip this point. Because this one is very significant when it comes to prayers. In our daily life, if we skip a prayer, do you know how many things go wrong then? How many times we attempt sins and bad acts? Have you ever reflected upon them?Prayer gives you a chance of reflection. And in the future it keeps you intact and in-check that you don't fall astray to bad acts from Satan. Keeps you pure and clean Before going to prayer, you remember, that you have to be Tahir (pure from any impurity). Thus this single remembrance can keep you more than enough clean and pure. Also, performing ablution three-to-five or more so times a day, protects you from Satan and his devilish whispers. Takes away nightmares and bad dreams I am sure many of us had nightmares or dreams that were bad, something you wish you'd never seen. But if you sleep after doing a wudu, and with faith that Allah and His angels will protect you from such dreams (that come from Satan), you'll be protected. WHAT DOES THE QURAN SAY ABOUT PRAYERS? I hope this thread will open your eyes to the importance of prayers and will bring you closer to Allah. If I made a mistake somewhere in the text, then it is solely from me. Forgive me, as I am only human. P.s. Thanks to my brothers and sisters here, they gave me confidence enough to post my material here. lol. I have some serious confidence issues. :P Anyways, thanks to everybody for reading and supporting! Jazak Allah Khair. Hope it will be helpful to at least a single soul!

Treatment of Kafirs/Non-believers by Allah
maryamjfr posted a topic in Christianity/Judaism Dialogue
Assalamualaikum everyone, This is my first post on Shiachat so lets see how it goes. Today I spoke to two friends about Islam again. They are both agnostic, one used to be a practising Christian, the other a Buddhist. We talked about religions and Islam and none of us seem to see eye to eye about most of it. What I got stuck on during our discussion is: How are non-believers/kafirs treated in Islam, particularly on Judgement Day? My knowledge is limited but I would like to learn more too about this, as its quite a relevant topic for non-muslims. Personally, I would like to believe that our Lord is omnibenevolent and that non-believers as well as believers of different religions will be judged by Allah according to the good and bad they have done in their lives. I was sent an excerpt from Surah Yunus, 10:4 specifically, saying: those who disbelieved will have a drink of scalding water and a painful punishment for what they used to deny. إِلَيْهِ مَرْجِعُكُمْ جَمِيعًا ۖ وَعْدَ اللَّهِ حَقًّا ۚ إِنَّهُ يَبْدَأُ الْخَلْقَ ثُمَّ يُعِيدُهُ لِيَجْزِيَ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ بِالْقِسْطِ ۚ وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَهُمْ شَرَابٌ مِّنْ حَمِيمٍ وَعَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ بِمَا كَانُوا يَكْفُرُونَ Now this was a Sahih International translation they found online. So, main question repeated is: how will non-believers and theists from other religions be treated and judged by Allah? Thanks- 17 replies

Assalamo aleikom, if this topic has been discussed elsewhere, I apologize in advance for posting. I was reading about the end of the world and Allah (swt) sending Malek Maut to take the lives of the inhabitants of earth. Then He sends him to each of the Heavens to take their lives. And he finally reaches Jibrael until Malek Maut is the last one to become deceased. A few questions I have: 1. who are the inhabitants of the 7 heavens? Is it just jinn and angels? Are there any humans like living prophets there? 2. If we die before then do we miss the calamities of the world's destruction (the first blow of the trumpet etc) or are we raised from the dead in order to experience the destruction of the worlds? 3. Do the people who are in paradise now like the prophets, do they "die" again or did they "skip" this event. (Tnis sort of ties to momens who have died before the last day...and whether they skip this event as well. If there are any interesting reads out there that have answers to some of these questions, I would apreciate links. Thanks. salams. TLH

Theory of Reincarnation – Satanic Trap How many humans have been led astray by the theory of reincarnation? This theory is logically inconsistent and flawed from every angle that you observe it. It does not provide the necessary motivation to do good and it does not encourage sympathy with fellow human beings. This fanciful theory, which emerged many centuries ago, was invented by oppressive high ruling class in order to further their control and oppress the weak and deprived. It was gradually imposed on the poor masses and turned into a religious belief. The followers of this theory believe that the soul returns again and again with the purpose of correcting its deficiencies and perfecting it towards achieving the greatest human qualities.

Muslim Ummah - 5 Groups - Day Of Judgement
raficsulejmanovic posted a topic in Theology and General Religion
I came across this hadeeth which please comment. If it is not authentic / doubtful do comment too. I am just curious to find out more because it is quite weighty. I simplify it in point forms: RasulAllah SAW said the Muslim Ummah will be under five (5) banners in the Day of Judgement:- 1. The first banner, the Pharaoh of this community, and he is Muawiya. 2. The second, the Samiri of this community, and he is Umar Bin Al-A’as. 3. The third, the Catholic of this community, and he is Abu Musa Al-Ashary. 4. And the fourth would be with Abu Al-Awr Al-Salmy. 5. And the fifth would be with you O Ali! ============== Below are just my scanty notes: 1. Muawiyah la is quite well-known. In what way(s) is he alikened to Pharaoh? 2. Umar Bin Al-A’as lived during the time of Muawiyah la, and history recorded him to have conquered Eqypt. Sounds like he is from the Umayyad clan. In what way is he to Samirri? 3. Wiki saya Abu Musa Al-Ashary was at various times governor of Basra and Kufa (during caliphate of Umar & Uthman) and was involved in the early Muslim conquests of Persia. He was from Yemen. A military man. Why is he considered the Catholic of this community? Related useful notes: Info on the Sunnah wal-Jamaah Group: Imams of Fiqh: Imam Abu Hanifa, Imam Malik, Imam Shafii & Imam Ahmad Bin Hanbal Imams of Aqeedah (Ilm al-Kalam): Imam Tahawi, Imam Maturidi, Imam Ashari and Imam Nasafi Is Abu Musa Al-Ashary the Father of Aqeedah to the Sunnis? 4. Abu Al-Awr Al-Salmy was one of the army commander of Muawiya. Malik Ashtar wanted to duel with him but the latter refused. Is he the umbrella to the upcoming Sufyani and the radical, armed Nasibis? 5. Ameerul Mukmineen Imam Ali (as). He is the Straight Path. Denying him (as) and the other Imams (as) entails rejecting the true teachings of Islam. ============== RasulAllah SAW mentioned it during his time. Note that he SAW mentioned Ummah. The Muslims. Not non-Muslims. Thus, current and future 'Muslims' will fall under the 5 banners. My reflection is that the theme revolves the acceptance/ rejection of the Wilayah / Imamate ... whether rejecting the true teachings or harming the Imams (as) and the Shias (True Believers) ... -
Salaams, As many of us know, there is a 'waiting period' between when you die and the Day of Judgement which is called "Barzakh" in which everyone will undergo the squeezing of the grave and other punishments (depending on the severity of your sins obviously). When the Universe is destroyed on the Day of Judgement (after Imam (a.s.) resurrects and builds a government etc and brings peace to the world) will the people who die on that day also undergo Barzakh? Will some be resurrected straight after they die without needing to go to this "middle-realm"? What are your opinions/ideas? (Please correct me if any of my knowledge is wrong :))
