Apa maksud Islam? Apakah yang mesti dilakukan oleh seseorang untuk menjalani realiti Islam hari ini? " Apabila Allah berfirman, "Saya memilih Islam sebagai agama" ini tidak merujuk kepada agama dalam pengertian tradisional. Ini adalah mengenai 'sistem dan perintah' Allah. Allah yang menciptakan sebagaimana Dia kehendaki, telah menciptakan semuanya dengan teratur dan sistematik . Jadi Quran, dan pemberi maklumatnya, Rasulullah (saw), memberi tumpuan kepada dua topik utama. Yang pertama ialah, "Apa yang dirujuk dengan nama Allah?" Apabila kita faham ini maka kita berhadapan dengan soalan kedua, "Apakah hubungan antara 'Allah' dengan kewujudan yang saya sebut sebagai 'diri saya'? " Kita sentiasa berfikir Sufisme adalah aspek yang lebih dalam dari Islam. Tetapi bagaimana boleh lebih mendalam, ketika Islam sudah menjadi penjelasan yang paling mendalam dan paling komprehensif. Sekarang ... Islam pada dasarnya merangk

The Symbol of the Name Allah As known, the  Basmalah , ‘In the Name of Allah…’ denotes that ‘Allah’ is a name. A ‘name’ is a sign that points to the one who is ‘named’. When I say ‘the One denoted by the name Allah’ I try to introduce a different perspective to the topic. This time, I want to take yet another perspective and focus on the original Arabic symbol of the word ‘Allah’. Anyone familiar with the Sufi way will know that existence comprises four worlds: the World of the Absolute Essence, the World of Attributes, the World of Names, and the World of Acts. The return to one’s essence and the acquisition of self-knowledge requires experiencing these worlds. As known, the word ‘Allah’ is written in Arabic with the letter  aleph  (ا), which stands alone and independent from the other letters, followed by two  lām s (ل) and a  he  (ه) in the shape of a circle (or a square in the case of Kufi calligraphy) attached to the second  lām . There is also an invisible  alep

Ilmu tasawuf itu adalah ilmu rohani atau dikatakan juga sebagai ilmu hakikat atau ilmu batin. Mengapa ilmu ini dikatakan ilmu rohani? Karena ilmu tasawuf membahas mengenai roh. Kata tasawuf itu diambil daripada bermacam-macam kata. Salah satunya adalah kata sofa yang berarti bersih atau murni. Tegasnya, ilmu tasawuf itu adalah ilmu bagaimana hendak membersihkan atau memurnikan roh (hati) atau nafsu. Agar dari dorongan hati yang bersih itu dapat membersihkan pula anggota lahir daripada melakukan kemungkaran dan kesalahan. Jadi, ilmu tasawuf itu adalah ilmu mengenai cara-cara membersihkan lahir dan batin daripada dosa dan kesalahan. Bahkan kesalahan lahir ini berasal dari kesalahan batin. Dosa lahir ini berlaku setelah berlakunya dosa batin. Kenapa ilmu tasawuf juga dikatakan ilmu batin? karena roh atau hati memang tidak dapat dilihat oleh mata kepala. Ia adalah makhluk yang tersembunyi. ilmu ini dinamakan ilmu batin karena ia membahaskan tentang hati dan sifat-sifatnya yang meman

The spiritually tasked men known as the “The Men of the Unknown” are of two groups: The administrators The executers The administrators are also known as The Council (Diwan) or The High Council (Diwan al-Kabir). They conduct two types of meetings: Monthly meetings, which occur on the 14 th  night adjoining the 15 th  of every lunar month, at various places. Annual meetings, conducted at the Mount Hira, where the Rasul of Allah (saw) retreated before he was assigned as a Rasul. Most of the members of the High Council are the great saints who have already made their transition to the life after death, while a third of them comprise the high degreed saints who are presently on duty on Earth. The High Council consists of 66 members. Amongst these are the Ghawth, his two assistants, Qutb al-Irshad, and Qutb al-Aqtab, and 4 other Qutbs, who administer 4 elements, all of the 7’s, and 11 others besides the administrative chamber of the Ghawth known as the ‘Mufarridoon’. T

We have become so accustomed to living our lives without contemplating and questioning that we take solace in relating the things we can see to ‘matter’ and the things we can’t see to magic! Some call this magic ‘mother nature’ and some call it ‘God’! It is as though we unwisely insist on not seeing the magnificent mechanism of the body, the cause-and-effect relation and the perfection of the brain, which is the most elevated mechanism of the One denoted by the name ‘Allah’! So-called scholars and their heralds who have no idea about the role of genes in the creation and life of man and its place and function in the brain, console the masses with nonsense ideas such as man being some sort of a hocus-pocus creation of God and all man has to do is deify and worship this God! We are afraid of thinking, questioning and knowing ourselves! Narrators of Quranic verses and hadith have no idea about the modern scientific developments, and most scientists are unaware of the pure knowledge di

Like ivy plants that send runners out searching for something to cling to, the brain’s neurons send out shoots that connect with other neurons throughout the organ. A new digital reconstruction method shows three neurons that branch extensively throughout the brain, including one that wraps around its entire outer layer. The finding may help to explain how the brain creates consciousness. Christof Koch, president of the Allen Institute for Brain Science in Seattle, Washington, explained his group’s new technique at a February 15 meeting of the Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies initiative in Bethesda, Maryland. He showed how the team traced three neurons from a small, thin sheet of cells called the claustrum — an area that Koch believes acts as the seat of consciousness in mice and humans1. Tracing all the branches of a neuron using conventional methods is a massive task. Researchers inject individual cells with a dye, slice the brain into thin sections and

Whatever meaning He wishes to manifest, he shapes an appropriate form in an appropriate dimension, and experiences that meaning through that form. Where? Not within, nor without. The emanation of a form, and the experience of a particular meaning, occurs through the revelation of the inherent meanings of the form. Hence, the meanings and conditions, that become explicit through the form, are what compose the form in the first place. The form’s experience of its meaning is the result of the environment, conditions, and events that cause it to be. All of this is created  within the Knowledge  of the One. Actually, all seemingly animate and inanimate beings are nothing more than names in the realm of His Knowledge. Their apparent  presence  is only of  a hypothetical nature , based on being  ‘acknowledged’  in His Knowledge.

Minutes 00:00 Is there a gene associated to having faith in Allah? Is it a gene that enables one to have faith? 03:05 Sir, we saw the cover for Time in the news, but I believe you want to add to it, or in other words, since you closely follow such research you may want to add your views on it. 06: 09 If there is such a gene, then why doesn't everyone carry it? 09:20 Now the Word 'beginning' needs to be understood well. Im not talking about a fixed time in space, every individual unit has its own beginning, there is no big one-time fixed 'beginning' outside. 11:53 Does prayer have any effect on one's fate? 15:41 Sometimes some people foresee an event that somebody else is to encounter, how does this happen?  Ahmed Hulusi

In other words, all things you think you see outside are things you experience in your brain. Each of us lives in our ‘own’ holographic world. How does this work? In the past the Sufis called this a ‘dream’, they said, ‘the essence of the worlds is a dream; they said ‘it is a dream within a dream’. So it is this ‘secret’ of Sufism that science has deciphered today. I say ‘all brains’ not just the ‘human brain’. We only know that ‘man’ exists, oh and we’ve also read that there are entities referred to as the ‘jinn’.. No! Our brain is a ‘structure’ within that ‘Oneness’, in religious terms it is said “Allah does not accept fragmentation” that is, Allah cannot be divided into parts and is not made up of parts. What we call human ‘consciousness’ and the metaphoric narration of man’s creation and how he was “taught all of the Names” all reference the reality that the Names of Allah are present in you, in fact they comprise your being. Ahmed Hulu

We all use the social media, the pop culture of our time.. I come across so many questions, sometimes as you say, the boundaries are broken, and the questions overflow... usually when I share examples I try to share without deterring from the primary source, the biggest problem of our time, as far as I’m aware, is that we have not properly understood the religion of Islam. The first thing I want to ask is, “What does Islam mean? What must one do in order to live the reality of Islam today?” When Allah says, “I chose Islam as the religion” this is not a reference to a religion in the traditional sense. This is about the ‘system and order’ of Allah. Allah who creates as He wills, has created everything orderly and systematically. So the Quran, and its informer, Rasulullah (saw), focuses on two primary topics. The first is, “What is referred to with the name Allah?” Once we understand this then we are faced with the second question, “What is the relation between ‘Allah’ and t
