A human god? What?? Is it really possible???

Many people at some point believe, directly or indirectly, in a philosophy of God becoming a human or taking a human form or the other way round that is, a human getting elevated to the status of God. This philosophy may be referred to as, ‘anthropomorphism’; in which God Almighty is given human characteristics or human beings are presented, portrayed, depicted or considered as God. However, such a philosophy is flawed and Islam rejects such concepts. If God becomes human, who would be looking at the affairs of the universe? And then how can he become God again? Humans are imperfect but God is Perfect. If He becomes a human - how can He be perfect and imperfect, both, at the same time?

Lustful F-law

I might just be one of the last to be writing on the French law (F-law) - which surely is a Flaw - i.e. the banning of 'niqaab' in public places which came into effect early this week. The law was proposed last year and was overwhelming and unanimously approved by the French parliament. France has the highest Muslim population among other European countries and with approximately 5 million adherents; Islam is the second largest religion being practiced in the country.

Marry-go-round!

The topic of marriage is something which is today scarcely discussed. Marriage, its importance and related issues today get very small space and time for discussion. We do not find much literature or material on this topic. Why? Well, I really don’t know! But, the effect of absence of that in ‘theory’ is surely being seen in ‘practice’.

The Meeting

(A short reminder!)

“I am leaving”

“Have your breakfast...”

“No! I’ll get late for the meeting!”

“Oh! You’ll take the bus?”

“No… I can’t wait for the bus, I’ll take the cab. I can’t afford to miss this meeting or even get late!”

Great is Allaah, the Sovereign Lord.

Great is Allaah, the Sovereign Lord,

He is One and Only, there is no other god.

Indeed it is of His Mercy that he Made us all,

Great are His Bounties of Which He Blessed us all.
