Environments

Call for Peace

In the Name of Allah,

the Most Gracious, and the Most Merciful

Environments

Brothers and Sisters!

Assalam o Alleyykum

[Peace be Upon You]

Environments are such a factor of life within which human life and life of every creation within earth and skies revolve. In fact not even between earth and skies but beneath the earth and beyond the skies the life of the creations revolves as there is life after deathwhich is beyond the skies.

Brothers and Sisters! Deen e Islam is a Way of Life which has to be followed by mankind within the environmentsof earth and skies. Therefore, it is imperative to find out the nature of environments mankind lives in.

Brothers and Sisters! To find out the nature of environments we have to start from Day One when Hazrat Adam (PBUH) were sent from Heavens to earth to live here for a short time and thereafter the plane of death will bring Him (PBUH) and His (PBUH) offspring above the skies where he will be accountable and will be asked what environments he created in the world i.e. pure and clean environments or dirty environments or pollutedenvironments.

Brothers and Sisters! The circumstantial evidence depicts that before Allah sent Hazrat Adam (PBUH) on earth Allah created Universe which is revealed in the Qur’an:

Surah Al A’raf Verse no 54

Indeed your Lord is Allah Who created heavens and the earth in Six Days, and then He rose over (Istawa) the Arsh (really in a manner that suits His Majesty). He brings the night a cover over the day, seeking it rapidly, and (He created) the sun, the moon, the starssubjected to His command. Surely, His is the Creations and Commandment. Blessed is Allah, the Lord of the Alamin (mankind, jinn, and all that exists).

Brothers and Sisters! It is perfectly safe to assumethat when universe was created the environments were pure and cleanwithin Heavens and the earth as there was no creation e.g. animals, agricultural produces, minerals, sea creature, insects etc. etc.

Brothers and Sisters! Now lets us look at the process how environments emerge and how they are spreadwithin the universe.

Brothers and Sisters! Every creation is combination of matter and soul or spirit and every matter has its properties. In fact soul and spirit are the properties of the matter. Let us look at the literal meaning of these terms:

Soul

The spiritual or immaterial part of a human being

The moral or emotional or intellectual nature of a person

Spirit:

The animating or life giving principle in a person or animal

The intelligent non – physical part of a person

Rational or intelligent being withouta material body

Matter

Physical substance

Physic: that which occupies space and possesses rest mass

Property

An attribute, quality, or characteristic

Brothers and Sisters! In fact it is spirit and property of the creation that matters where the matter itself is of no use because it is destructible and when the spirit and property of the matter is utilized the matter vanishes. For example: Wood. When wood is burnt it provides heat i.e. its heat and burning qualities are utilized and wood becomes non – existent and turn into coal. When coal will be burnt its burning qualities will provide heat and the matter will turn into ashes and so on.

Brothers and Sisters! Therefore, it is safe to assume that it is the invisiblepart of the creation i.e. spirit and property which human mind is after and the not the matter.

Brothers and Sisters! The use of spirit and property is dependent upon soul. In fact soul is Command of Allah.

Brothers and Sisters! To be useful and effective every action needs command. For example: Central Processing Unit is programmed that unless and until it receives command t will not move forward.

Brothers and Sisters! he Prophet Hazrat Mohammed (SAW) were asked by Kuffar about Ruh (Soul). Allah revealed in the Qur’an to the effect that Ruh (soul) is Amr e Rabbi,Command of Allah

Surah Bani Isra’iel Verse no. 85

And they ask you (O Mohammed (SAW)) concerning the Ruh (the soul): Say: “The Ruh is (the soul) Command of my Lord. And of knowledge, you (mankind) have been given only little.

Brothers and Sisters! In view of the context and substance of the above Verse it is clear that spirit and properties cannot act or react unless and until Command of Allah i.e. Ruh (soul) is received y them i.e. spirit and properties of the creation.

DEVELOPMENT OF ENVIRONMENTS

Brothers and Sisters! uestion rises when Hazrat Adam (PBUH) were sent on the earth then how the environments ave developed?

Brothers and Sisters!

The above representations depict that every matter has a spirit and properties. In fact it appears that Allah created spirit and properties which are inflicted are transmitted in a matter

It is natural phenomenon that effects emerge from the spirit of the matter. For example: when water is heated on fire then water boils and the effects emerge in the form of evaporation i.e. a kind of smoke which is steam.
There is air within the atmosphere which spread the effects within the vicinity that lead to development of environmentswithin which human beings and other creations live and the effect and impact of the environments is transmitted within their spirit and properties and in case of human beings in their minds which is reflected in their bodies i.e. matter.

Brothers and Sisters! So the human beings and every creation are living within the environments which are being createdby every creation within the vicinity. Brothers and Sisters! Let us try to understand with an example:

Everyone experiences:

Weather is very cold, body is cold, bed is cold, and blanket is cold.

But when one lies in the bed and covers his body with blanket, after some time the environments within the bed are getting warmand one feels warm and comfortable.

Brothers and Sisters! Question arises when the bed was cold, blanket was cold, and body was cold then how the environments got warm?

Brothers and Sisters! The answer to the question is that it is the body heat which was emerging by the circulation of blood and coming out of the body. The bed and blanket had properties to absorb the heat and when they get warm enough they also start to produce heat which becomes part of the environmentand atmosphere within the bed becomes warm and comfortable.

Brothers and Sisters! In other words the person is living within the environments of heat produced by the body.

Brothers and Sisters! Please remember this point as, with the Grace of Allah, this article is being written that how, initially, every human being and every creation lives within the environments of its owncreation.

Brothers and Sisters! Before we move on to the subject matter let us look at the definitions of environmentsas per Google:

Definitions

The circumstances or conditions that surrounds one: Surroundings

The totality of circumstances surrounding an organism or group of organism, especially:

The combination of external physical conditions that affect and influence the growth, development, and survival of organism

The complex of social and cultural conditions affecting the nature of an individual or community

Computer Science:

The entire set of conditions under which one operates a computer, as it relates to the hardware, operating platform or operating system

An area of a computer’s memory used by the operating system and some programs to store certain variables to which they need frequent access

External conditions or surrounding, especially those in which people live or work

Ecology: the external surroundings in which a plant or animal lives, which tend to influence its development and behaviour

The state of being environed; encirclement

Computing an operating system, program or integrated suite of programs that provides all the facilities necessary for a particular application a word – processing environment

All of the biotic and abiotic factorsthat act on an organism, population, or community and influence its survival and development. Biotic factors include the organism themselves, their food, and their interactions. Abiotic factors include such items as sunlight, soil, air, water, climate, and pollution. Organism respond to changes in their environment by evolutionary adaptations in form and behaviour.

Brothers and Sisters!

The ‘Crux’ of Deen e Islam is

‘Good Deeds’ and ‘Bad Deeds’.

Brothers and Sisters!

If a person does Good Deeds then clean, pious effects emerge and surround him just like when heat emerges by the circulation of the blood i.e. just like the fragrance of park where there are flowers and pleasant atmosphere

If a person does Bad Deed then bad, smelly and dirty effects emerge and surround him just like heat emerges from the body by the circulation of blood i.e. just like atmosphere of a toilet and places of dirty animals.

If a person does Good Deeds and Bad Deeds then the atmosphere become polluted and he is surrounded by polluted environments.

Brothers and Sisters! It is natural phenomenon that when anything emerges it goes or grows upward. For example:

when seedis sown in the land and it flourishes then the matter grows and comes out of the land and keep moving upward and thereafter stem, branches, leaves, flowers, fruit keep on emerging and properties are inflicted in every matter e.g. leaves, flowers, fruits etc.

smoke from the fire moves upward

when water is boiled then steam moves upward

etc. etc.

Brothers and Sisters! Similarly when mankind does Good Deeds and Bad Deeds then the effect emerge and keep moving upwards and even sky is not the limit and these keep moving upward until those reach to the Arsh of Allah. This aspect has revealed in the Qur’an:

Surah Al Hadid Verse no 4

He it is Who created the heavens and the earth in six Days and then rose over (Istawa) the Throne (in a manner that suits His Majesty). He knows what goes on into the earth and what comes forth from it, and what descends from the heavens and what ascends thereto.And He is with you (by His Knowledge) wheresoever you may be. And Allah is the All-Seer of what you do.

Brothers and Sisters! Scholars have deduced from the context and substance of the above Verse of the Qur’an that it is the effects of Deeds of mankind which ascend and reach to Arsh of Allah where decision are determined as per effects of the Deeds.

Brothers and Sisters! The aspect of determination of decisions can be appreciated by an example:

Brothers and Sisters!

Let us assume there are two persons where one is good and other is bad.

Good person does good deeds e.g.

social work

helpspeople in need

adheres to the constitution of the state

innovates which is beneficial to the society

good tempered and high in morals

honest

etc.

. Bad person does bad deedse.g.

commits crime

breaks law

robs and steals

beat or kill people

dishonest

etc.

Brothers and Sisters! When report about the above two persons will be sent to the head of the state then obviously the decision by the head of the state will be determined as per their deeds i.e.

for Good person, he will be appreciated and rewarded and also given amenities of life where he will be loved and respected by other people
for Bad person the decision will be that he is to be punished and deprived of amenities of life where he will be disgracedand humiliated.

Brothers and Sisters! Similarly when the effects of Deeds of people ascend and reach to Allah the decisions are determined as per deeds of the human being.

Brothers and Sisters! When the effects of deed are ascending upward then on the way the environment between earth and sky are either made clean and pure or dirty and polluted. No doubt you will appreciate that it is natural phenomenon that anything which passes that leaves its effect and impact on its way to the destination.

POLLUTION OF ENVIRONMENT BECAUSE OF DIGRESSION FROM RIGHT PATH

Brothers and Sisters!

The question arises why there is

unrest in the whole world?

Brothers and Sisters! The simple answer is mankind has digressed from the Right Path where effects of Bad deeds have warranted the decisions by Allah accordingly.

Brothers and Sisters!

Question arises what are Good Deeds

and what are Bad Deeds?

Brothers and Sisters! In simple terms Good Deeds are Halal (allowed) and Bad Deeds are Haram (disallowed).

Brothers and Sisters!

Question arises who decides to do good deeds and who decides to do bad deeds?

Brothers and Sisters! It is ‘human mind’ which makes decision either to do good deed or bad deed.

Brothers and Sisters! Question arises who inspires to do good deed and bad deed?

Brothers and Sisters! To do good deed is inspiration from Allah and to do bad deed is inspiration by Shaitan.

Brothers and Sisters! There is another element which also inspires to do bad deed and that is ‘Naffas’(Psyche).

Brothers and Sisters! As Allah has sent mankind in this world for a test, therefore to test mankind Allah has inflicted ‘Naffas’ in his Fitrat (disposition).

Brothers and Sisters! When Naffas is satisfied it enjoys pleasure. Therefore Naffas always want it to be satisfied.

Brothers and Sisters! In fact it is the test of Naffas. The test of Naffas is whether it satisfies by Halal means or Haram means. Brothers and Sisters! Let us try to appreciate this aspect by the mandate given by Allah as to how to satisfy Naffas which will attract Allah’s Blessings. Brothers and Sisters! The mandate is Qur’an.

Creation of Mankind

Brothers and Sisters! The question arises why Allah created mankind for test?

Brothers and Sisters! Please consider the following aspects:

Allah was and is Lone Entity and He (SWT) had enormous powers which He (SWT) could not expose.

The circumstantial evidence depict that Initially, Allah created Angels. But they were too obedient. Thereafter Allah created Jinn (Spirits) but they were too mischievous.

As there were too extremes, so Allah created Hazrat Adam (PBUH) and thereafter Hazrat Haw’wa (RTU) and gave them the option to choose between Right and Wrong. They were advised that if they chose ‘Right’ they will be in Peace and if they chose ‘Wrong’, they will be anxious.

For the inhabitance of Hazrat Adam (PBUH) Allah created Paradise and asked them to go there and live where they are freeto go anywhere and eat and drink anything they want.

But as mankind was created for ‘test’ to choose between Right and Wrong, Allah grew atree and asked Hazrat Adam (PBUH) not to go even near that tree.

The circumstantial evidence depict that it was a courtship period for them to know each other well before they embark upon to give rise to their offspring by mating with each other.

But while they were in courtship period Shaitan (devil) made them eat the fruit of the tree where they were even forbidden to go near, so as punishment Allah sent them on earth. Allah advised them that they will give rise to their offspring on earth and if they expended their day to day life as per His (SWT) Guidance then the Plane of Death will bring them above the Heavens where they will be judged that if they deserve to go to Paradise or Hell.

Birth of Offspring

Brothers and Sisters!

Allah devised a system for the birth of offspring where when man and woman will mate the sperms of man will be transfused in the uterusof woman where she will get pregnant and after a period of nine months she will give birth to offspring.

To inspire man and woman to mate for the birth of offspring Allah devised a system that when the sperms of both man and woman will ejaculate they will have pleasure. Had there not been any pleasure then neither man not woman would have interested in mating.

Now here is the test. Before man and woman can mate with each other they have to follow the mandate of Allah in this respect. The Guidance of Allah is that before mating man and woman must enter into ‘Wedlock’. Brothers and Sisters! If man and woman mate after entering into wedlock then the mating is Halal and if they mate without entering into wedlock it is Haram.

Brothers and Sisters! It is natural phenomenons that when man and woman reach the age of puberty the sperms develop and there is urge to ejaculate them to satisfy the lust.

Brothers and Sisters! Sexual urge can be satisfied by masturbating or with a woman without entering into wedlock which is not allowed. Here is test of the Naffas. If one controls this urge then he is following the mandate of Allah and he has passed the test. However, Allah has devised a system that when there is overflowof sperms then while sleeping one has ‘wet dream’ where he is relieved from the sexual urge for some time.

Brothers and Sisters! The mandate of Allah is only man and woman can enter into wedlock. There is no room for homosexuality or lesbianism or same sex as marriages.

Pollution of Environments

Brothers and Sisters! Unfortunately mankind has digressed from the Right Path and as there has been option to choose between right and wrong, so mankind has chosen the ‘wrong’ course where the object of mating has just become to satisfy the lust and not the birth of offspring and for this purpose many methodshave been adopted to stop the birthof offspring. Moreover, the satisfaction of lust has given rise to:

homosexuality

lesbianism

same sex marriages

pedophilia

etc.

Brothers and Sisters! It is effect of illicit intercourse, homosexuality, lesbianism, same sex marriages and pedophilia which are emerging and polluting the environments. When these effects ascend and reach beyond the skies to Arsh of Allahthen decisions descend in accordance with the effects of deedsi.e. effects of illicit intercourse.

TO KEEP BODY AND SOUL TOGETHER

Brothers and Sisters! To keep body and soul together Allah has devised a system of nourishment of the body. To nourish the body and keep it healthy the body requires food and liquid to be consumed.

Brothers and Sisters! Once again there is test for mankind i.e. to choose between Halal and Haram.

Brothers and Sisters! For the nourishment of the body Allah created:

animals: cow, lamb, chicken, fish, etc.

cereals: wheat, rice, barley etc

vegetables: potato, spinach, beans, peas etc.

fruits: mango, orange, banana, apples, pears etc.

water

etc.

Brothers and Sisters! If the body is nourished by Halal food then mental faculties will think and make research on Halal grounds which will inspire to do good deeds and refrain from bad deeds.

POLLUTION OF ENVIRONMENTS

Brothers and Sisters! As mankind has digressed from the Right Path therefore he does not bother to differentiate between Halal
and Haram which has resulted in:

consumption of pig meat which is specifically declared Haram in Qur’an

halal animals are not slaughtered as per the mandate of Allah which fall in Haram category

use of alcohol and intoxicants is on the rise

etc.

Brothers and Sisters! The consumption of Haram food inspire to do bad deeds which then emerge in the form of effects and become part of the environment and then ascend to Arsh of Allah and ask for His (SWT) curseand wrath.

WEALTH Brothers and Sisters! In this age Monetary Units are considered as wealth but this is not the case. In fact Monetary Units are shape or form of wealth.

Brothers and Sisters!

Question arises what is wealth?

Brothers and Sisters! In fact ‘Wealth’ is ILM (knowledge). When Allah sent Hazrat Adam (PBUH) on earth He (PBUH) was taught ILM. Why? Because he will make research upon the creations of the universe where matter e.g. fruit, vegetables, cereals etc. will be grown and those will be tradedwhich will be beneficial for the mankind.

Brothers and Sisters! In other words:

when wealth of ILM was used then form of wealth emerged in the form of fruit, vegetables and cereals

when fruit, vegetable and cereal were traded in exchange for Monetary Units then Monetary Units became form of wealth of ILM.

Brothers and Sisters! Wealth i.e. Monetary Units can be Halal or Haram.

How?

Brothers and Sisters! If Monetary Units have acquired by selling Halal goods and rendering Halal services then the Monetary Units will be Halali.e. Halal earning. For example: sale of fruit and vegetable and rendering services for Halal business.

Brothers and Sisters! But if Monetary Units are acquired by sale of Haram goods or rendering Haram services then the Monetary Units are Haram. For example: sale of pig meat and rendering services for a fraudulent transaction.

POLLUTION OF ENVIRONMENTS

Brothers and Sisters! In this day of age as the mankind has digressed form the Right Path most of the wealth created falls in Haramcategory which has polluted the environments.

DISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH

Brothers and Sisters! Allah has devised a system to run the life span of mankind in trade of goods and rendering of services which constitutes distribution of wealth.

Brothers and Sisters! Goods and services are exchanged in return for Monetary Unitsas Monetary Units are denomination of the state. Therefore, anyone who holds large quantity of Monetary Units he is ‘Wealthy’ because in fact the Monetary Units represent ‘Wealth’ of the state.

Brothers and Sisters! As Monetary Units represent ‘Wealth’ of the state so there has to be equal distribution of wealth. If there is unequal distribution of wealth then although economy will progress on the whole but there shall be only two classes: rich and poor and there will be no middle class.

Brothers and Sisters! In this age economies of the world are based upon ‘Capitalism’. The soul of ‘Capitalism’ is to make as much profit as possible and cut downexpenditure as much as possible.

Brothers and Sisters! In short, because of the ‘capitalism’ there has been Global Recession i.e. every country is in the grip of ‘Recession’ not because there is shortage of goods and services but because of unequal distribution of wealth.

POLLUTION OF ENVIRONMENTS

Brothers and Sisters! When there is unequal distribution of wealth then there is infringement of rights which fall into Haram category. The Haram effects emerge as there has been infringement of rights i.e. because of unequal distribution of wealth, which pollutethe environments.

CONCLUSION

Brothers and Sisters! The conclusion boils down to is, that it is the effects of Bad Deeds in many forms which have polluted the environments which ascend to Arsh of Allah and decisions are determined accordingly which has created unrestin the whole world.

SOLUTION

Brothers and Sisters! The question arises is there solutionto this problem i.e. to cleanse the environments?

Brothers and Sisters! Yes! There is a solution to the problem and for this we have to look at the history.

Brothers and Sisters! History reveals that 1400 years ago it was similar situation i.e. digression from the Right Path had led environments to be polluted all over the world as Deen e Islam got buried under the thick veils of Jahaliah (ignorance). Allah had Mercy upon mankind and commissioned Mohammed Ibne Abdullah (SAW) as the Last Prophet to dig out Deen e Islam from the thick veils of Jahaliah.

Brothers and Sisters! To revive Deen e Islam the requisites were:

Mandate

Brothers and Sisters! The first requisite was Guidance of Allah which was revealed in the form of Qur’an. As the Guidance was fromAllah so it is also termed as Word of Allah.

Tazkiyya e Naffas (Purification of Psyche)

Brothers and Sisters! The second requisite was to purify Naffas as this is the element which digresses human mind from Right Path.

Teaching

Brothers and Sisters! The third requisite was to teach the Guidance of Allah i.e. Verses of the Qur’an.

Hikmah (Prudence)

Brothers and Sisters! The fourth requisite was to expose and exploit the Hikmah (prudence) of the Guidance of Allah as to why human life ought to be upon the teachings of the Qur’an.

Brothers and Sisters! All the above requisites are revealed in the Qur’anby Allah:

Surah Al Baqrah Verse no 151

Similarly (to complete My Blessings on you), We have sent among you a Messenger (Mohammad (SAW)) of your own,

reciting to you Our Verses (the Qur’an) and

purifying you, and

teaching you the Book (the Qur’an) and

the Hikmah(i.e. Sunnah, Islamic laws and Fiqh – jurisprudence), and teaching you that which you used not to know

Brothers and Sisters! Alhamdu’lillah! Khatim ul Anbiyya (SAW) accomplished His (SAW) mission in 23 years and then by the behest of Allah assigned the responsibility to His (SAW) Umaties (followers) to keep promoting the above requisites so that environments get cleansed and remain cleansed where the effects of the deeds will emerge in pure form and ascend to the Arsh of Allah where decisions will be determined which will bring Peace and Harmonyin the world.

PROJECT: Call for Peace

Brothers and Sisters! Alhamdu’lillah! I am humble Umati (follower) of Khatim ul Anbiyya Hazrat Mohammed (SAW). By profession I am accountant. How with the Toffeeq of Allah I embarked upon project: Call for Peace, please browse articles under heading: Profile on any of the websites as below:

www.cfppolitics.co.uk

Brothers and Sisters! Once you will read the profile, it will be gathered that gradually I learnt the theme of Deen e Islam that teachings of Deen e Islam to be applied in practical day to day life in every aspect of life and not simply confined to performance Ibadaahs: Salat, Soam, Hajj, and Zakat with the belief upon Lone Entity of Allah. Brothers and Sisters! These Ibadaahs are the sign of being a Muslim. Iqamat as Salat is to adhere to the Guidance of Allah in day to daylife i.e. Qur’an and Hadith.

Brothers and Sisters! Alhamdu’lillah! Allah gave me Toffeeq to overview the ‘Politics’of the world which led me to write the books and articles in respect of the current issues under the light of Qur’an and Hadith. Please read articles on website: www.callforpeace.org.uk under the option: Articles.

Brothers and Sisters! To highlight the Hikmah (prudence) of ibadaahs, with the Toffeeq of Allah composed the following books in rational manner.

Qaza Namaz Ki Adaiegi

[To offer Qaza Namaz]

 Wadu Namaz Ka Hissa Kayyun Hai?

[Why Wadu is Part of Namaz?]

 Tazkiyya e Naffas Kayyun Lazim Hai?

[Why purification of Naffas is necessary?]

 Namaz Insan Ki Zindigi Ka Hissa Kayyun Hai?

[Why Salat is Part of mankind’s Life?]

 Khatim ul Anbiyya Kay Namoos Ki hifazat Kayyun Ki Jai?

[Why Namoos of Khatim ul Anbiyya be protected]

 Tsunami Tufan Hameen Kia Batla Gia?

[What Tsunami Tufan has told us (seven basic beliefs of Islam)

Brothers and Sisters! The features of the above books can be read on website: www.callforpeace.org.uk
under option: Publications.

Brothers and Sisters! It is duty and responsibility of Muslim heads of state to introduce, revive and promote Deen e Islam. I wrote letters to the Muslim heads of states to sponsorproject: Call for Peace but they did not even acknowledged the letter which led me to write the book:

Kaya Islami Riyastoon Kay Surbrah, Deeni Renuma, Umat e Muslimah, Deen Islam Ka Farog Chahte Hain?

[Do Heads of the Muslim States, Religious leaders, Muslim Ummah Want Promotion of Islam]

Brothers and Sisters! The prime object of publication of the above books is Tazkiyya e Naffas (Purification of Psyche). As Naffas is the basic element which is the root cause of digression from the Right Path, therefore, unless and until Naffas is purified one cannot expect that Good Deeds shall be done which will cleanse the environments and the effects of Good Deeds shall ascend to Arsh of Allah where decisionsare determined by Allah.

PROMOTION OF PROJECT: Call for Peace

Brothers and Sisters! In short, project: Call for Peace has been promoted by writing letters to heads of states, daral ulooms, scholars, religious organizations, friends and relatives. But the environments of digression do not let them read the books or browse website: www.callforpeace.org.uk. However, the name Call for Peace is all over the world which needs to be brought on the scene.

Brothers and Sisters! Allah has given the opportunity to bring project: Call for Peace on the scene through Dr Saleem Farooq Shaukat and his wife Dr Robina Farooq. Please read their profile on the Google.

Brothers and Sisters! I had met Dr Saleem Farooq and his wife at Southall in England where they were studying for PhD and M Phil respectively at Brunel University. Dr Robina Farooq secured her PhD in Environment Engineering from East ChinaUniversity of Science and Technology Shanghai.

Brothers and Sisters! Dr Saleem Farooq heads COMSATS University in Pakistan and Dr Robina Farooq is head of chemical engineering department.

Brothers and Sisters! Recently they visited England and honoured me with their visit.

Brothers and Sisters! In short, I exchanged views about promotion of project: Call for Peace through University COMSATSon the following grounds:-

Universities are institutions from where ILM (knowledge) emerges and taught to students who become masons of the futurein every field.

In fact artistic and scientificeducation is elaboration of Qur’an and Hadith.

How?

Brothers and Sisters! In the Qur’an number of time it is revealed to make research of the universe:

Surah Sad Verse no. 29

(O Mohammed (SAW)) This Blessed Book has been revealed upon you so that people make research on Its Verses (research on the universe) and learned people deduce and learn outcome (properties of the universe) and follow teachings.

Brothers and Sisters! Qur’an is Word of Allah and only source of ILM. Therefore when Allah asks to make research upon the universe then in fact it is research upon the Verses of the Qur’an. In other words, research is elaboration of the Qur’an.

Brothers and Sisters! When Bandah make research upon the Verses of the Qur’an then Allah teaches him i.e. provide answers to his explorationwhich is also revealed in the first five Verses of the Qur’an:

Surah Al Alaq Verse no. 1 – 5

Read! In the Name of your Lord Who has created (all that exists)

He has created man from a clot (a piece of thick coagulated blood)

Read! And your Lord is the Most Generous.

Who has taught (the writing) by the pen.

Who has taught man that which he knew not.

Brothers and Sisters! In view of the above it is perfectly right to deduce that artistic and scientific research is elaboration of the Qur’an and research upon Qur’an is Ibadaah (worship). And this is the object of creation of mankind which is revealed in the Qur’an:

Surah Adh Dhariyat Verse no. 56

And I (Allah) created not the jinn and mankind except that they should submit toMe (Alone).

In this age artistic and scientific education is considered as ‘worldly’ education and is not considered as Ibadaah and this is where man has digressed from the Right Path. Once the teachers and students shall appreciate that their studies in school, colleges, and universities are Ibadaah then road to Right Path is clear.
COMSAT is educational institution and has connection and affiliation with universities of Pakistan and abroad, so the project: Call for Peaceshall be promoted all over the world which is reflection of Message of Allah as it is based upon Qur’an and Hadith.

Brothers and Sisters! Alhamdu’lillah! Dr Saleem Farooq has established a base in COMSAT University for the promotion of project: Call for Peace.

How?

Brothers and Sisters! I went to Pakistan in the year 2005 for the publication of the books. Dr Saleem bought five sets of book for university’s libraryand arranged a lecture to be delivered to his class. Alhamdu’lillah! I have uploaded the lecture on website: www.callforpeace.org.uk under option: Students.

QUR’AN BOOK OF ART AND SCIENCE

Brothers and Sisters!

When Hazrat Adam (PBUH) were sent in this world at that time it was plain field, nothing was grown plus there were mountains, seas and deserts.

Whatever we see in this world is extracted from the Universe.

Moreover:

man has set foot on the moon

modules are sent on Mars

through Hubble telescope creations of the universe have been discovered

space stations have been set up and satellites are installed

information technology made the communication easier

etc.

Brothers and Sisters! How everything came into being? Everything came into being because mankind followed the Guidance of Allah to make research upon the universe i.e. application of art and science.

Brothers and Sisters! Let us look at the definition of Art and Science:

Art

Britannica Online defines ‘Art’ as “the use of skill and imagination in the creation of aesthetic objects, environments, or experiences that can be shared with others.”

Science

Science is systematic enterprise that builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanation and predictions about the Universe.

As per Aristotle scientific knowledge is a body of reliable knowledge that can be logically and rationally explained.

Brothers and Sisters! In simple terms art is ‘theory’ and science is ‘experiment’.

How?

Brothers and Sisters! When a human mind makes research of the creation of the universe then he develops a formula band put it in practice i.e. mixing of many produces in certain ratios. So formation of formula is theory (Art) and implementation of formula is experiment (Science).

CONCLUSION

Brothers and Sisters! So let us see how Qur’an is Book of Art and Science:

Qur’an asked human mind to make research of the universe.

When human mind started making search on the creation of the universe he wanted an answer.

The answers can only be given by the

Creator of the Universe.

Creator of the universe is Allah Who (SWT) is Omnipresent and nearer than the jugular vein where the contact is established between Allah and the human mind.

Brothers and Sisters! When contact is established between Allah and human mind then Allah teaches the human mind which he did not know i.e. Allah has revealed in the first revelation to Khatim ul Anbiyya (SAW) that He (SWT) teaches man which he did not know:

Surah Al Alaq Verse no. 5

Who (Allah) has taught man that which he knew not.

Brothers and Sisters! Alhamdu’lillah! The above rational analysis depicts that Qur’an is Book of Art and Science as well.

SPIRITUALITY

Brothers and Sisters! Spirituality is an element which keeps Allah and man closer to each other where the connection keep on developing and Bandah becomes Vali (Friend) of Allah (Friend of Allah).

Brothers and Sisters! In short, when human mind makes research upon the universe and attributes every aspect of research to Allah, spiritually, the mind keeps on praising Allah and His attributes and qualities which keeps man closer to Allah.

Brothers and Sisters! Praise of Allah is the highest of Ibadaah as Allah the first Verse of the Qur’an asks for to PraiseAllah:

Surah Fatihah Verse no.1

Alhamdu Lillai Rabbil Ala’meen

All the Praises and thanks are to Allah, the Lord of Alamin (mankind, Jinn and all that exists)

Brothers and Sisters! When human mind makes research upon the creation of the universe and its properties are exposed to him then when he speaks out ‘Allah ho Akbar’ he is praising Allah which pleases Allah.

Brothers and Sisters! In fact, scientists should have been Aulia Allah (friends of Allah) should they have attributed their discoveries of the properties of the universe to Allah. But Shaitan let these achievements attribute to themselves and this is what has led mankind to digress from the Right Path.

Brothers and Sisters! However, it is not too late. Universities are in a position to make the scientific world realise that science can get them closer to Allah should they attribute every discovery to Him (SWT) and not consider it as their achievement.

LAST WORD

Brothers and Sisters! Deen e Islam is the Way of Life which was given to Hazrat Adam (PBUH) when he (PBUH) was sent on the earth and completed upon Khatim ul Anbiyya Hazrat Mohammed (SAW). This fact has revealed in the Qur’an:

Surah al Ma’idah Verse no. 3
