Islam Religion Forum is a place where Muslims and Non Muslims both can post their Religious Topics!
There was a time when Muslims were the masters of the
earth,controller of the destiny, but today they are on a
path of continuous decline. Their Condition is horrible,
they face miserable poverty,illiteracy, malnutrition,
disease and sickness. There is a feeling of
helplessness, hopelessness, and frustration among the
Muslims. They are just living, for the sake of
living ,without any sense of direction. Neither the
rulers, nor the intellectuals of this nation, have any
plan, for this huge mass of suffering humanity. It is
really painful to see them suffer, despite the best lands,
resources,and vast number. It is very important for those,
who are concerned about the future of the Ummah, to ponder
about as to what is the cause of Muslim decline? What if
anything can be done to end this misery?
Here we are discussing the role of husband and wife in the
light of Quran. The perspective of Quran is in this regards
is that wife and husband are taken, particularly as father
and mother, are the two significant pillars upon whom the
entire edifice of the family rests.It is, therefore
essential that their relationship should be cordial
as well as harmonious to achieve happiness and prosperity
of the family so that the home may serve as model for
others in the society.

Since the Quran prescribed fasting specifically in the
month of Ramadan, it is important to know the significance
of this special time. A special feature of the Quran is
that whenever it gives a command for action, it also
provides the wisdom behind it. It tells what the final
result of that action will be in this world, if it is
successfully carried out. In this way the Quran provides a
pragmatic test for people to see whether or not they are
moving toward that desired result. Regarding fasting, the
Quran Surah 2 verse 183 says: Self-control is a
prerequisite both for steadfastness and fortitude in the
battlefield as well as for establishing a just and
equitable socio-economic system. In other words, in case
of a conflict between your physical drives and lofty human
values, you should uphold the latter. Furthermore, you
should habituate yourself to leading a hard and laborious
life. For this purpose fasting has been made obligatory
for you as it was for earlier communities, in order that
you may live according to the Divine Laws and protect
yourself from the pitfalls of life. Fasting is for a
prescribed number of days -as fixation of time itself is
an aid to disciplined life-

The reality is that Islam is not as is commonly believed a religion, in which each one of us can worship the God of our own wishful concepts. Islam is a collective system for life in which we are collectively subservient to the Law of Quran. Islamic republic or system is responsible for legislating and imposing God's Laws and having them implemented in the nation. The first Islamic nation was established by the Messenger Muhammad peace be upon him, the purpose and aim of which was to abide by God's Law. In Quran's terminology it is to follow Allah Almighty and does not mean to follow ones wishful thinking of our own belief. It meant to follow the system that the Messenger Muhammad peace be upon him had established according to God's / Allah Almighty commands, which are present in the Quran.

The correct way is for the Muslims in particular and mankind in general to examine their ideology in the light of the living Book of Allah Almighty the Quran. They should retain what the Book condones. All other notions should be discarded. The focal point of the Quran is the Law of Returns says, that every human action bears a result, sooner or later. That makes Man responsible for his actions.

The governance has nothing to do with the matters pertaining to religion and ethics. The governance is comprehensive and composite, encompasses the entire life of the individual members of the society and is never accountable to anyone for its functions and decisions. It engrails its power from the geographical boundaries for its nationalism.

In Quran it has been said that We have created you all
from one breath of life. But the perception of life as an
organic unity is a slow achievement, and depends for its
growth on a people’s entry into the main current of world-
events. This opportunity was brought to Islam by the rapid
development of a vast empire. No doubt, Christianity, long
before Islam, brought the message of equality to mankind;
but Christian Rome did not rise to the full apprehension
of the idea of humanity as a single organism. As Flint
rightly says, No Christian writer and still less, of
course, any other in the Roman Empire, can be credited
with having had more than a general and abstract
conception of human unity. And since the days of Rome the
idea does not seem to have gained much in depth and root
age in Europe. On the other hand, the growth of
territorial nationalism, with its emphasis on what is
called national characteristics, has tended rather to kill
the broad human element in the art and literature of
Europe. It was quite otherwise with Islam. Here the idea
was neither a concept of philosophy nor a dream of poetry.
As a social movement the aim of Islam was to make the idea
a living factor in the Muslim’s daily life, and thus
silently and imperceptibly to carry it towards fuller
fruition.
Enigma ensnares the human all his Life and they convincingly believe that they are born free! Although they is not! they are born chained in customs, traditions, rituals, and the family traits. They goes to the place of worship because as a child they saw their parents go to the place of worship. They despises others because as a child saw their parents despise others. They assumes themselves to be the most cultured, enlightened, and brave among the men because they thought and behaved like that. The Man remains confounded in the given circumstances. They evolves their ethics and code of conduct to judge the world.

Approach of describing past Muslims achievements is effective in making us, Muslims feel proud. It may even motivate a few of us to excel in science – thanks to the West. But in describing the history of Islam and science, should one stop here? Does this approach provide clues about how past Muslims systematically discovered new knowledge? How they invented so much new scientific knowledge without the modern facilities that we have today? Was this the result of their natural instincts or intellectual aptitude? Were they motivated (like most of us) by wealth, career, or fame? Why did they devote their entire lives seeking knowledge of Allah Almighty's creations even while suffering extreme hardships? Most important of all, what was the driving force behind their constant pursuit in advancing the frontiers of new knowledge? Unless we probe these questions, we will not be able to fully appreciate the achievements of past Muslims or learn from their stories.
If one looks at the general picture of the Muslim world today it is hard to find something positive on the horizon. There is political chaos and regional turmoil all over the Muslim world. Muslims seem to have lost control of their affairs. They feel frustrated and helpless. Many Muslim governments are persecuting their people – in the name of Islam. Can Muslims hope for a better future under these circumstances?
