Dreams in the Scale of Islam
by Sh Su’ood Ash-Shuraym
----------------------------

O people! The son of Aadam has a great desire and an enflamed interest regarding the unseen, whether it is related to the past or the future, and refusing to accept that such a phenomenon exists, is ignoring a fact of life. People’s obsession with such phenomena is related to how close they are to the Sunnah of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam and Qur’aan which firmly addressed this subject and clarified it, as Allaah says, which means, “(He is) Knower of the unseen, and He does not disclose His (knowledge of the) unseen, Except whom He has approved of as messengers, and indeed, He sends before him (i.e. each messenger) and behind him observers” (Al-Jinn: 26-27).

It is no wonder that the further people are from the time of prophet hood, the more confused they become and mix facts regarding the issue of the unseen, and the more eager people with weak souls become to know the unseen. Some believe in illusions as facts, others accept what fortune-tellers say, and others guess and speak about the unseen during all times while the verses from the Qur’aan are recited before them day and night, like the saying of Allaah, which means, “Say, ' None in the heavens and earth knows the unseen except Allah and they do not perceive when they will be resurrected.'” (An-Naml: 65) as well as the sayings of the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam, like the Hadeeth where he said, “Five things only Allaah knows, and he recited the verse (the meaning of which is) “Indeed, Allaah (alone) has knowledge of the hour and sends down the rain and knows what is in the wombs. And no soul perceives what it will earn tomorrow and no soul perceives in what land it will die. Indeed, Allaah is Knowing and Acquainted” (Luqmaan: 34) read more

"'n Afrikaanse Moslem Webtuiste en 'n Blog gerig op die Afrikaanssprekende Christen:

Terwyl die Teoloë en Akademici van ons land se Christelike Kerke, soos Allah wil, al meer skryf oor die feit dat die vergoddeliking van Jesus oor 'n tydperk van jare onstaan het, is die gewone Kerklidmate salig onbewus daarvan dat hulle "saligmaker" toe nou nie so 'n betroubare waarborg tot die Hemel is nie. Die vraag wat Moslems hulleself moet afvra is: "Wat doen ek om te help om my Christen vriende en -kliënte van hierdie tragedie bewus te maak.

Wel, hoekom verwys jy nie net jou vriende na hierdie Webtuiste en Blog toe nie? Mens weet nooit, soos Allah wil...: www.koraninafrikaans.com en: www.letterdash.com/saad"
