Does evil exist?

Did GOD Create EVIL?

Did God create everything that exists?
Does evil exist?
Did God create evil?

A University professor at a well known institution of higher learning challenged his students with this question. “Did God create everything that exists?” A student bravely replied, “Yes he did!”

“God created everything?” The professor asked. “Yes sir, he certainly did,” the student replied. The professor answered, “If God created everything; then God created evil. And, since evil exists, and according to the principal that our works define who we are, then we can assume God is evil.”

The student became quiet and did not respond to the professor’s hypothetical definition. The professor, quite pleased with himself, boasted to the students that he had proven once more that religion was a myth.

Another student raised his hand and said, “May I ask you a question, professor?”

“Of course”, replied the professor. The student stood up and asked, “ Professor, does cold exist?”

“What kind of question is this? Of course it exists. Have you never been cold?” The other students snickered at the young man’s question.The young man replied, “In fact sir, cold does not exist. According to the laws of physics, what we consider cold is in reality the absence of heat. Everybody or every object is susceptible to study when it has or transmits energy, and heat is what makes a body or matter have or transmit energy. Absolute zero (-460 F) is the total absence of heat; and all matter becomes inert and incapable of reaction at that temperature. Cold does not exist. We have created this word to describe how we feel if we have no heat.”

The student continued, “ Professor, does darkness exist?” The professor responded, “Of course it does.” The student replied, “Once again you are wrong sir, darkness does not exist either. Darkness is in reality the absence of light. Light we can study, but not darkness. In fact, we can use Newton’s prism to break white light into many colors and study the various wavelengths of each color. You cannot measure darkness. A simple ray of light can break into a world of darkness and illuminate it. How can you know how dark a certain space is? You measure the amount of light present. Isn’t this correct? Darkness is a term used by man to describe what happens when there is no light present.”

Finally the young man asked the professor, “Sir, does evil exist?” Now uncertain, the professor responded, “Of course, as I have already said. We see it everyday. It is in the daily examples of man’s inhumanity to man. It is in the multitude of crime and violence everywhere in the world. These manifestations are nothing else but evil.

To this the student replied, “Evil does not exist, sir, or at least it does not exist unto itself. Evil is simply the absence of God. It is just like darkness and cold, a word that man has created to describe the absence of God. God did not create evil. Evil is the result of what happens when man does not have God’s love present in his heart. It’s like the cold that comes when there is no heat, or the darkness that comes when there is no light.” The professor sat down.

Say (O Muhammad): “If you love Allah, then follow me: Allah will love you and forgive you your sins, verily. Allah is forgiving merciful."

Unity

where would all the super "power" hide if the Muslim ummah becomes united.Respect people,human, your war is against yourself,you will loss not us.Take the oil, we keep our love for god. we will not change the world in one day ,but we must start by our own reformation using information from he who created knowlege.

Hurt not me

Sometime we care so much about not hurting our surrounding ,but we are hurting our soul by not feeding it with the love of Allah.

"Modesty is a part of Imaan (Faith)."

Instinct

Human instinct is such that no sooner does a strange man and woman meet in privacy that a sensation of mutual attraction develops from stage to stage, from mere affection to uncontrollable passion and ultimately into the irreversible stage, where it is almost impossible to control the nafs, and finally the shameful deed of zina is perpetrated.

Thus Allah has made easy upon us the beautiful pathway to chastity, purity and piety (taqwa), by declaring unlawful all those factors that contribute to the commission of zina. The solution is simple; marriage, a fortress against all evils of the loins.

Just an affair

A sage advises that, an illicit love affair is in reality an affliction and calamity from Allah, as a result of which the rooh (soul) becomes greatly agitated and tormented, sleep becomes haraam, the thought of the beloved constantly haunts the mind and a state between life and death prevails over the heart - a condition that can veritably be compared to that of the people of Jahannam.

Gift gift gift gift gift gift

Ponder over the fact that Allah Ta’ala has blessed us with the gift of sight, hearing, health, wealth, and so much else – and has also granted us the gift of respect. However, what He gives, He can also take away. He has explicitly stated that ingratitude for His Gifts will draw very severe punishment. So is sin not abuse and ingratitude for the gifts of sight, of heart, of mind, of limbs ?

hi

Trying to drop some nice words, Enjoy RAMADAN

Rumi

when we are dead seek not our tomb in the earth,but find it in the heart of men.

hey dude

Hey traveler dont be afraid the guide is here. The student of the guide.

born angels

test will come else we would be born angels and be in jannat.Occupy your mind with zikr.temptation will take us to trouble.As soon as bad idea come ,think of something good. Think of Madina.

Anything you lose

“Don't grieve. Anything you lose comes round in another form. that the plan of allah is all wise. know that behind all our problems there is hidden good in it.like the mother giving a slap to her child,does it mean she doesnt love her.

advise me

Ash-Shafi’ said, "The one who admonishes his brother secretly, he has advised sincerely and has honored him. If he does it outwardly (among others) then he has dishonored and shamed him." so we must think a lot to stop a bad thing, it may be in funny way you can tell your friend what is good and what is wrong.

who is better

You should imagine everyone whom you see as better than yourself, even though someone may be obedient and someone else disobedient, since it might be that the obedience of the former is the last of his acts of obedience while the sinfulness of the latter is the last of his sinful acts.

friendship

Anyone who criticises you cares about your friendship.
Anyone who makes light of your faults cares nothing about you.

who really loves you,who gave the friend light to see fault.what if the friend himself is in fault. we must seek the company of the righteous. Stop with the triangle of love, love for the sake of allah.how can people be proud with an illicit beloved,be proud of sins is worst sins. make it the right way allah will ease the way. the rain of mercy will fall ,oh my friends.may allah give me ,give you tawfiq to make amal

Generosity

Allah's Generosity is connected to gratitude, and gratitude is linked to increase in His generosity. The generosity of Allah will not stop increasing unless the gratitude of the servant ceases. [Ali ibn Abu Talib]

inward

When the inward is good the outward is also inevitably so, for the outward always follows the inward, whether for good or evil.

love Prophet

It is confirmed with people
that I am a passionate lover,
although they do not know
the object of my passion.

who is satisfied?

people will never find what you do as good, so we just dont care what they say if allah has commanded us to do then its good. we pray Allah not people. so who cares? if Allah cares all is won.so do everything for the pleasure of allah.dont let the evil self the ego control you, dont let him take the command else you will end in hell, here on earth itself. people wonder how is hell. here itself when we disobey allah we get the taste. So we must take time to thank allah for all the favours upon us each second of our life, the life he gave to us.

just for a soul

Allah can change a whole concept just for one person

flash

playing with animation

Too obvious

Allah is present everywhere, that we fail to witness. When the bounty and mercy are reduce, People start to pray. Then its not “reduction” it is only mercy and gift in a disguise form. Why not see god in his manifestation, the beauty of the creation. So how wise the creator must be.sit and ponder other nature and waste your precious time.

Beware of your ego

Beware of your ego, and trust not its mischief;
The ego is worse than seventy devils.

Watch your habits; they become character.
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.

6. If you have a penny and I have a penny and we exchange pennies, you
Still have one cent and I still have one cent. But if you have an idea
And I have an idea and we exchange ideas, you now have two ideas and I
Now have two ideas.Good ideas are inspired from Allah.

7. If you think you are beaten, you are. If you think you dare not, you
Don’t. If you like to win but think you can’t, It’s almost certain that

Give everyone a smile,a pure one with good intention.its is an act of charity and great reward.
Spend so much time improving yourself that you have no time left to
Criticize others.

9. The only place you find success before work is in the dictionary.work then put all
your trust in Allah and follow the way of the Prophet peace be upon him.

If you never searched for truth

If you never searched for truth
come with us
and you will become a seeker.
If you were never a musician
come with us
and you will find your voice.
You may posses immense wealth
come with us
and you will become love's beggar.
You may think yourself a master
come with us
and love will turn you into a slave.
If you've lost your spirit,
come with us
take off your silk coverings,
put on our rough cloak
and we will bring you back to life.

A Poem

A Poem
Farewell greetings to her who enslaved me through her elegance,
The splendour of her cheeks, and the furtive glances of her eyes.
A charming young maiden captivated me and filled me with love.
Imagination is confounded in describing her(charms).
But I said to her: "Leave me and excuse me, for indeed
I have become enamored with knowledge and its unveiling.
And for me seeking knowledge, learning, and reverence of God
suffices me over the songs of singing maidens and their perfume."
Excerpt from Imam Zarnuji's Instruction of the Student:Method of Learning

invitation

Come, come, whoever you are.
Wanderer, worshipper, lover of leaving.
It doesn’t matter.
Ours is a caravan of love.
Come, even if you have broken your vow
a hundred times.
Come, yet again, come, come.
