Guidance Of Allah

When one feels pulled to do a particular thing, when one has passion for a certain life path, karma is always involved. In such an instance, when the goal is worthy and makes one happy, one should continue on that same life path. Just because the way you won't cannot carry you anymore doesn't mean you should give up your goal. Continue down the path that makes you feel fulfilled. Those who continue are displaying a lack of trust in life, and Seeking the road they should have taken. 

This is a book (Al Quran) which revealed to you, then let there be no narrowness in the chest so that you may give warning to the book to the heathen, and be a lesson for those who believe.Follow what is revealed unto thee from thy Lord, and do not follow the leaders but Him. Very few you take a lesson from it.How many generations have We destroyed that country, then came the ordeal we happen to its residents at the time they are at night, or at the time they rested at noon.Then there is a complaint at the time they come to their torment us, except to say: 'We are the ones who do wrong. " AL 'ARAAF (HIGHEST PLACE)

Indeed the human being is a complex being! From the beginning of time, when Adam (Peace be upon him) was created , Allah has guided mankind. The very nature of mankind is inclined towards weakness and desires - a combination of the body, mind and spirit that are constantly in conflict. If left to himself, man will certainly destroy all that lies around him. Being prone to greed, pride, aggression and all that is base, if left unguided, the human being descends to the state of being less than an animal. Indeed, animals, like everything else in nature, willingly submit to the laws of nature as provided by Allah. On the other hand, often if left unhindered by environmental or educational influences, the human being, will naturally seek Allah; truth and peace.

Islam is the religion of the natural state of man (fitrah), the religion of reason and thought. Allaah has distinguished the truth from falsehood. He has enjoined all that is good and forbidden all that is evil. He has permitted good things and forbidden evil things. There is no compulsion in religion because the benefits or harms come back upon the created being, not upon the Creator.

The Muslim loves, reveres and respects all the prophets of Islam and makes no distinction between them. The word Islam, does not denote a religion as such, but the way of life prescribed by Allah, the Creator, from the beginning of time. It denotes a state of obedience and submission to Him - something which has occurred on various levels from the time of Adam (peace be upon him), until now.

Guidance is in the hand of Allaah. If Allaah willed, He could guide all of mankind, for there is nothing that He cannot do o­n this earth or in the heavens. Nothing happens in His Dominion except that which He wills.
