Mu' meneen Brothers and Sisters,

As Salaam Aleikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh.  (May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)

one of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:

Dear brother in Islaam,

Assalaamualekum.
Refering to the mail of one brother, who is wirried of social life of his own, I would like to ask him is he believing in Quraan & it's light or he believs in man made society, where every thing is controled by man.

I find your forum is not only for Bohras, it is for every true Muslim . I read your mail regularly &feel that you are doing the work of  one of the scholers of Islaam, who is presently teaching same philosophy through his books & monthly magazine  Al' Risaala. I am proud of you & your work.   God Bless you & your mission.       By the way, I am not a Bohra Muslim,  My wife is, but I do not find any better way of following Is laam or better social life among Bohras or worst. Both Non Bohras And Bohras, Snni & shias all are equally responsible for their own Deeds. No leader or any ordinery person can promiss for Jannat.       Keep up with your work & God will reward you Jazaa.

Answer:

This forum is for Muslims

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and who-ever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is no one (no idol, no person, no grave, no prophet, no imam, no dai, nobody!) worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

All Praise is due to Allah Alone, Who has guided us to the deen of Islam. We sincerely thank you for your kind words and supplications to Allah, and pray that Allah keep you and us all on this deen of Islam until our very last breath. May He guide us to do deeds that are pleasing to Him, may He accept our humble and weak-efforts in the propagation of his deen of Truth, may He forgive us our sins and short-comings and save us from the torment of the Hell Fire. Ameen.

We encourage you to ask us any questions pertaining to Islam, and we will endevour to answer them by giving evidence from the Holy Quran and the authentic traditions of the Prophet (saws), Insha Allah. We ask for no reward and no appreciation for our service; we do this only for the pleasure of our Lord, and look towards Him Alone for all our needs.

My beloved brother in Islam, we humbly invite you to help in this cause and mission that Allah has made a duty unto every believer: To invite mankind to this beautiful deen of Islam. We humbly urge you to invite your family, your relatives, your friends, and whomever you know to the clear guidance and teachings of the Holy Quran. It will be huge source of earning reward from Allah when you ultimately meet with your Creator, and Insha Allah, we pray that He will be pleased with you and us all on that Inevitable Day.

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 66 Surah Tahreem verse 6:O you who have believed, save yourselves and your families from a Fire whose fuel shall be men and stones; over which shall be appointed fierce and stern angels, who never disobey Allah’s Command, and they only do as they are commanded!

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 3 Surah Ale Imran verse 110:You (muslims) are the best community which has been raised for the guidance of mankind. You enjoin what is right, and forbid what is evil and you all believe in Allah Alone.

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 49 Surah Hujaraat verses 10:The believers are the brothers of one another; so set the relations right between your brethren and fear Allah. It is expected that you will be shown Mercy.

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 58 Surah Mujadalah verse 22:They (the believers) are of the party of Allah. Truly it is the Party of Allah which will achieve True Success.

May Allah reward you and us with contentment in this world, and honor you and us all with His Mercy, Grace, and Forgiveness in the Hereafter. Ameen.

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

Your brother and well wisher in Islam,

Burhan
