Quran and the Egyptian History

One of the many miracles of Quran is the historical facts present in it. Many archaeological finds are discovered just recently and they were mentioned 1400 years ago in Quran. The story of Musa (A.S) and Pharaoh is mentioned in Quran, where Allah mentioned that He will save the body of Pharaoh as a sign for future generations.

"Today, we will preserve your body, to set you up as a lesson for future generations." Unfortunately, many people are totally oblivious to our signs.

The Holy Quran, Chapter 10, Verse 92

Importance of understanding Quran

Muslims believe Quran to be the word of Allah. the most important reason to read and understand Quran with meaning is that it’s the word and guidance from Allah to mankind. When we work in a office we have to follow the rules and regulations of the company, same is the case with Quran. We are the creation and we must follow the rules and regulations laid down by the Creator.

Purpose of creation of mankind according to Quran

Muslims believe Quran to be the final word of ALLAH. Whoever studies Quran with intellect and logical reasoning will come to the conclusion that Quran is a divine revelation. there comes a time in life of every human when he/she thinks the reason for the purpose of the creation. why are we born on planet earth and Who is controlling everything? On this quest to search for truth and purpose almost everyone ends up reverting to Islam. Quran has answers to every question that a human mind is unable to answer. ALLAH says in Quran:

"I have created the jinn and humankind only for My worship" 

The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 51, Verse 56

The essential purpose for which the mankind is created is to worship one God, the creator of mankind and universe. Every creation in this world and universe has needs . In islam each and every action of a person can become worship if it is done in accordance with the commands laid doing by ALLAH in Quran or authentic Sunnah. In chapter al-An'aam, ALLAH says:

"Say: 'Surely my prayer, my sacrifice, my living and my dying are for ALLAH, the Lord of all the worlds.' " The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 6, Verse 162

Without the knowledge of the purpose of creation, human beings wander aimlessly. We see that even the most developed nations like Japan, America and Europe have the highest number of suicides. As they don’t have proper satisfaction and answers to the purpose of creation and what will happen after death. Islam is and has the solution for all problems of the world.

Holy Quran and the people with intellect

One may feel after understanding the Holy Quran, it invites people to ponder on the signs that there is a Divine existence. On numerous occasions in Quran Allah has addressed those with intellect, and called them to ponder on different things. Allah says in Quran:

"But none will grasp the message except the men of intellect."

The Holy Quran, Chapter 2, Verse 269

How Quran was revealed to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)

One of the oldest Quran

Quran is the final word of God to Mankind and it was revealed to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). In order to have a better understanding of Quran it is important to study how it was revealed and in context it was revealed. Quran was revealed in a period of 23 years, it was not revealed all at once rather it was received by Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) on different occasions and incidents.

Has Paris Hilton Converted to Islam: truth or hoax?

There are so many rumors spreading that Paris Hilton has converted to Islam and has left her previous obscene and vulgar lifestyle full of materialism. All the websites that are reporting this are highly doubtful news are quoting from one website as the wordings are same in all the sources that are spreading this rumor. Apparently she has said

"Forget Scientology or Kaballah. This is the religion to be in now. I'm not going to be wearing a piece of red string on my wrist or walk around like a robot talking to Xenu. Islam is the new must-have religion. And I'm going to spread the word of the Quran to everyone," an excited Paris Hilton said.

Poorly edited Paris picture

First of all this does not seem to be the tone of a Muslim sister who reverted to Islam in search for peace. There are many many famous personalities in the past that have reverted to Islam because they were searching for peace of mind and soul. Reading this statement alone gives a solid proof that this is hoax and a big lie while she is busy in her trip in Middle East. Let us suppose even if this is true, even then she is taking this as a new trend, fashion or something new to experience for a while. 

The report is poorly written and the picture is poorly photoshoped, but its spreading fast just because people love rumors and talk about others ups and down. Having said this in the end I would like to pray that May ALLAH guide her if she seeks for peace and truth.

Perfection of Quran from literary aspect

Quran

The superiority and dominance of Quran on ones intellect is so strong that even if they are not Muslims they regard it in high esteem. Quran is a Divine revelation and there is not a single error or flaw in it, the authority of this book can easily be judged by reading it. If Quran gives references of history then they are authentic, accurate and even proved by the modern archeologists. When Quran refers to science they have been established facts in this technological era. Predictions mentioned in Quran 1400 years ago have been fulfilled in different times for example, the prophecy of  Pharaohs dead body to be made sign for others.
