(Part 1 The Base)
A lot of persons seek their happiness in the realization of their desires. Whereas the desires of the ego are endless; to try continuously to satisfy these desires of the ego is fit for nothing except making the human an insatiable monster who thinks nothing except his own self. Being sought the happiness in satisfaction of the desires of his ego by human is with the reason of not enough knowing his self and his God. The serenity and quietness of the human is in being subject to his Creator. The eternal happiness of the human becomes real only with his going into the circle of Islam, with his knowing his Creator and with his submission to the will of his Creator. The Creator (Allah Taala) is fair. He doesn't persecute anybody. He is the enemy of all cruel persons. He is the most gracious and most compassionate over all His creatures, and He is also the closest friend of the human. If a person obeys his Creator's desires, he comes always face to face with beneficences, goodnesses and favors. But if a person obeys the rubbishy desires of his ego, he also encounters ever with troubles, botherations and difficulties. He can not get rid of being in tribulations. Everybody find the counterpart of that whatever he has done, in the world and the afterlife. My honorable brother, don't be unaware of your God. This unawareness takes away you to perish in the world and beyond. Try to remember your God and to behave according to your God's desires every moment. If you can't conform to all, at least, try to conform to majority of them. If a tribulation occures and you encounter with troubles, don't seek the reasons of these troubles at other places, search them within your self behaviours, your self mistakes and defects. If you come face to face with various beneficences and favors, don't be conceited with the reason of these benefactions which you don't know it is good or bad for you. Your mind and your attention must be on your God who is the true possession of these benefactions, but not on these favors. Be grateful for these favors to your God. If you behave suchlike, you will be within the peace and soundness in the world and also beyond. The behaviours of the tactless persons existing around you must not make you perplexed. Don't become consternated by looking at the reasons, the means, and the forces of atrocious persons. Giver and taker, booster and reducer is Allah Taala. A feather can not move from its place without His volition. Every event has got also a metaphysical reason as it has a physical reason. You can't see these metaphysical reasons before your belief becomes an absolute faith. See the consequences of the events, not only the fore of them. My very dear brother, I had stated that "submission to the will of Creator produces always goodness, but being subject to the own ego's desires creates always botherations and troubles." What does our God want from us?? All of them are totally 110 items. I've left the faith principles out of them. Because the faith is the pith and marrow of the matter. Neither the divine education nor God's compassion and favor never become reality without faith. For this reason, you must firstly fix your faith. Basics of Faith The commandments of our God about the principles of faith are:
My dear brother, These are the terms of the Islamic belief. A person doesn't become a true believer without believing these. Don't attempt pondering over these belief principles with the mind criterion. The mind is a weighing machine that it can measure only the physical world's values. It hasn't been created within power so that it can weigh out the metaphysical world's values. You have to accept these so how almighty Allah has notified to you. The base of the religion is not intellect, but is the transferred knowledges by prophets. To be subject to mind by leaving these tranferred knowledges means, in fact, to be subject to desires of the ego and to build a new religion according to ego. The others except the belief principles are given below. Don't forget; these are the golden rules of the universal and eternal happiness. Who conform to these rules, they attain the salvation. Also those not being subject to them live its botherations in the world and the afterlife. Don't suppose that it will not be given an account for things you did. The poetic justice calls you to account for everything on the day of judgement. Take a glance at these rules every day. Every day, try to increase the number of those you could fulfill. Apologize to your God for those you couldn't fulfill, and be from the persons trying not to do once again. Especially, try to stay away from deadly sins. To commit these sins is the perish of human. Repent also for sins that you had committed until now. Your God possesses the endless mercy. Basics of Worship The commandments of our God about the principles of worship are:
In some Islamic literature, it is said that these are the terms of Islam. If these were terms, it was necessary to go out Islam when these had been left. But a person doesn't go out Islam without losing his belief. These are the pillars of Islam. A man destroys his religion if he leaves them. For this reason, don't think that no one of them is unimportant, my dear brother. The Cardinal Sins The following actions are the acts forbidden by Allah Taala, that each one of them is deadly sin. Must be stood aloof from them. If commit, must repent, must plead for mercy; if exists, must be paid its expiation; and that sins must not be committed again.
Been given above are notified as the deadly sins in various Islamic sources. (Now some media presents these deadly sins to the humans such as they are normal and simple events. The believers should not be deceived, and must stand aloof from these sins. Who stay away from them, he is in the salvation.) (be continued) |
