Stories long and short of Islam with some explanations
I have made this section for you my brothers and sisters tso that within these stories you may learn valuable lessons from. I hope you enjoy them.
There was once a father who was talking to his son about Islam. The father several times mentioned God(Allah).
At one point the son stopped his father and said
"Dad. How do we know Allah exists?"
At this point the father was stuck. he did not know what to say. So, the father said
"Son lets go for a walk"
Both father and son where going walking together when they came across 2 pathways. The father decided to take the first one but as he was about to, the son said
"Dad don`t go that way there is camels. Look down father can you see the marks of the hoofs."
At this point the father said to his son
"Son you have answered your question. u remember when you asked how do we know God (Allah) exists, well. I have the answer. Just as you recognised the cals where on the first pathway by looking at the hoofs we know that God (Allah) exists by looking at the marks God (Allah) has left behind. These are the Earth, Sun, Moon, Prophets who where bringing the message os Islam to this Earth and most importantly the Quraan. Son this is how we can tell"
This answered the son`s question in one go and I hope it has confirmed any doubts you may have had in your hearts.
How do we know God (Allah) exists?
THE STORY OF ANGEL HARQUAIL
Allah created an Angel by the name of  Harquail with eighteen thousand wings. this Angel wanted to encircle the Divine Throne, so Allah granted him a further eighteen thousand wings, then Harquail was commanded by the Lord to take first flight. The flight lasted for three thousand years, the Angel became weary and rested. The Angel was Commanded by the Lord to fly again, he flew for a second time three thousand years berfore resting. After this rest he was commanded by the Lord to fly and he took flight for third period of three thousand years before becoming completely exhausted. After this he asked humbly how many times did he encircle the Majestic Throne?  The Lord of the Worlds replied; "O Harquail you have flown for nine thousand years and yet you have not reached the first pillar at the base of the Throne, do not speak of having encircled the entire KURSI". The Angel further told that even if it was given a life span until the last day flying continuously, it would still not even reach the first pillar of the Throne.

This report attempts to describe Allah's (God's) creation. The greatness of His Majesty is such that only He and He alone can have the complete knowledge of the universe and its contents.
The effect of haraam
Brothers and sisters the effects of haraam are very big indeed. Sometimes when we go out we guy a sweet or crisps and when we realise it is haraam, many of us think, well its okay once I have finished this packed I won`t buy again.

Then there are 3 things that may happen afterwards:

-You forget and go into the shop and buy the same thing unknowingly and half way though eating it remember, yes this is haraam and do the same as last time.

-Never buy that product again and inform other muslim brothers and sisters

-See another muslim eating/drinking that product (If you see another muslim devouring the haraam thing then you must inform that muslim right away.

I would like to say that being laxed over haraam is not right. The above shows that the person realises the sweet is haraam half way through but continues to eat it and think to himself/herself i won`t buy it again. The thing to go it to throw straight away and never touch that product again.

Fod and drink is not just haraam because it is from Pig ect. But it is also haraam if bought with haraam wealth. The story below explains and also shows how strong the effects of haraam are.

There was once an old pious man who was invited to dinner at a family home. The pious man sat down ready to eat the food. As soon as the pious man ate one spoonful of the food he stopped.
The pious man asked
"What work do u do?" to the home owner.
The man replied with a haraam job.
This meant the money earned was also haraam causing the food purchased with the haraam money to become haraam.
The pious man went on to say a month later when he returned to that house THAT THE 1 SPOON OF HARAAM THAT HE ATE MADE HIM WANT TO DO BAD (EVIL) FOR 1 MONTH.


Brothers and sisters think about the terrible effects haraam is having. Is this why Muslims are do apart from each other. Many of us like me like in a kufir country meaning we don`t know that many of the things we eat are haraam. One worldwide example is coca cola as no onw knows the actual content of it but people still drink it. Why? Because they think its okay to drink it because another muslim is drinking it. They dismiss they fact either of them could be wrong. Why drink something that you don`t know the content of ?
Brothers and sisters this is yes a long article but It is very worth reading and understanding as it contains much that we NEED to know to help us in our lifes. Please click the below to see the following topics
