Understanding time perception

During afterlife, time does not the same dimensions we have in our today’s life…

Let's know some truth about time mentioned in Qur'an:

• Resurrection Day is equal to 50 000 years :

Surah Al Maarij/Quran Chapter 70

In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.

1. A questioner asked for a punishment bound to happen.

2. For the unbelievers, there is none to avert it.

3. From God, the Lord of the ascending pathways.

4. The angels and the Spirit ascend unto Him, on a Day that spans fifty thousand years.

5. So, be patient with a beautiful patience.

6. They perceive it as far off.

7. But We see it as near.

8. On that Day, the sky will resemble molten copper.

• A Day with our Lord is like 1000 years

Sourat 22-47. They challenge you to hasten the punishment, but God will never fail in His promise. A day with your Lord is like a thousand years by your calculations.

Sourat 32- 5. He directs the affairs from the heavens to the earth; then it ascends to Him, in a Day the measure of which is a thousand years according to your calculations.

Besides Allah gives some examples for reflecting :

Death and sleeping time perception

• We have to know that we loose perception of time once we sleep or once we die…….
• Sourat 39-42. God takes the souls at the time of their death and those that haven’t died in their sleep. He retains those for whom death was decreed, and He sends the others back until their appointed time. In this are signs for those who reflect.

Sleeping time perception

• Sourat 18-9. Do you consider the people of the Cave and the Inscription as among Our extraordinary miracles?

10. When they sought sanctuary in the cave, they prayed, “Our Lord, shower us with Your mercy, and arrange our affairs with wisdom.”

11. Then We sealed their ears in the cave for some years.

12. Then We awakened them, to determine which of the two groups could best estimate the duration of their stay.

• We need to know that sleeping duration of the people of the cave had been for 309 years, yet once they wake up they felt as if they slept one night:

Sourat 18-19. We then awakened them, prompting them to question each other. One of them asked, “How long did you stay?” They answered, “We stayed a day or part of a day.” They concluded, “Only your Lord knows the duration of your stay.” “Send one of you with your money to the city, and let him find the best sustenance and bring it back to us. He must be discreet and not draw any attention to you.”

25. They remained in their cave for three hundred years, and nine more.

Death time perception:

• Sourat 2-259. Consider the man who came upon a ruined village and wondered, “How can God revive this after its death?” Then God caused him to die for a century and then resurrected him. He asked, “How long did you remain?” He replied, “I remained for a day or part of a day.” He said, “No, you remained for a hundred years. Look at your food and drink; they haven’t spoiled. And look at your donkey. We will make you a sign for people. Look at the bones, how We reconstruct them and then clothe them with flesh.” When it was made clear to him, he said, “I know that God is capable of everything.”

The inhabitants of Paradise—they are the victorious.

This life is a test, for a true believer , the Quran is the final Devine message for humanity, and it's so explicit:

* So for a believer, life is s competition to get a huge reward, so he prefers to be ready to be successful, wants to be wise, works to follow Devine commandments, he knows that this life is short so he does his best to be on the right path and deserve Paradise
* As for an unbeliever there's no test, our life is just fun and then nothing, we just go, no God, angels, prophets, devine, scriptures and no judgement... He just don't care about Devine warnings... although, for sure, the challenge is so high, and a severe punishment is awaiting those who took this life as only amusement, and didn't pay attention for the devine warnings, ...when death comes they will see the unexpected!
Quran
Chapter 59
20. Not equal are the inhabitants of the Fire and the inhabitants of Paradise. The inhabitants of Paradise—they are the victorious.

21. If We had revealed this Quran upon a mountain, you would’ve seen it humbled, shattered from fear of God. We present these parables to people, so they may reflect.

22. He is God, besides whom there is no god, the Knower of the invisible and the visible. He is the Gracious, the Merciful.

23. He is God, other than whom there is no deity, the Sovereign, the Sacred, the Source of Peace, the Giver of Faith, the Overseer, the Mighty, the Compeller, the Majestic. Glory be to God, far beyond what they associate with Him.

24. He is God, the Creator, the Inventor, the Designer. To Him belong the most beautiful names. All that’s in the heavens and the earth declares His glory. He is the Almighty, the All-Wise.

Tolerance in Islam

There are five divine guidelines that the Qur’an clearly presents to Muslims for building tolerance and understanding among differing religions.

• Everyone’s God-given human dignity must be respected, regardless of his or her faith, race, ethnic origin, gender, or social status (ref. Qur’an, 17:70).

70. We honored the Children of Adam, transported them on land and sea, provided them with good things, and gave them preference over many of those We created.

Because everyone is created by God Almighty, the Maker of all, humans must treat one another with full honor, respect, and loving-kindness.

• Islam teaches it is by Divine Will that God’s human creation follows different religions, or no religion at all — no religion is nevertheless a faith, or belief-system (ref. Qur’an, 10:99).

99. If your Lord had willed, everyone on earth would have believed. Would you then compel people to become believers?

But God Almighty is not pleased when some humans choose not to believe. (ref. Qur’an, 39:7)

7. If you are ungrateful, God doesn’t need you. Yet, He doesn’t approve of ingratitude from His beings. If you are grateful, He is pleased with you. No bearer of burdens can bear the burdens of another. Ultimately, your return is to your Lord, who will inform you of everything you did. He knows the secrets within the hearts.

• The Qur’an states clearly that freedom of religion is a God-given right. (ref. Qur’an, 2:256)

256. There is no coercion in matters of faith; the right way has become distinct from the erroneous one. Whoever rejects evil and believes in God has grasped the firmest handhold, which never breaks. God is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.

• The final judgment of all humanity lies in the hands of God, the One Almighty, their Creator, to whom we all ultimately return. (ref. Qur’an, 22:68-69 and 42:15)

22:68. If they argue with you, say, “God knows best about what you’re doing.”

69. On the Day of Resurrection, God will judge between you, resolving all your disputes.

---

42: 15. So, invite to this, and be upright as you’re commanded, and don’t follow their desires. And say, “I believe in whatever Scripture God revealed. And I am commanded to judge justly among you. God is our Lord and your Lord. We have our deeds, and you have yours. There is no contention between us and you. God will bring us together, and to Him is the final return.”

• God loves justice and those who strive to practice it, especially toward people who are different from them in any way, including in matters of religious belief. (ref. Qur’an, 5:8 and 60:8)

5: 8. O you who have faith, stand out firmly for God, and bear witness with justice. Don’t let your animosity towards a people provoke you into not acting justly. Always be just, for it is closer to piety. Be conscious of God; God is fully aware of what you do.

---

60: 8. God doesn’t prohibit you from being kind and just towards those who don’t fight you because of religion or expel you from your homes. God loves those who act justly.

Our Grandfather is Adam

Some evidence you will learn from this research:

* Adam born in Africa since nearly 60 000 years

* Our Ancestors have no genetic link to monks or any kind of other creature species.

So we are all African...

Holy Quran - Chapter 27

13. What’s the matter with you, that you don’t attribute to God due grandeur.

14. When He created you in stages.

15. Don’t you see how God created seven heavens in perfect harmony?

16. And He made the moon a luminary in them, and He made the sun a glowing lamp.

17. And God germinated you from the earth like plants.

18. Then He will return you to it, and He will extract you once again.

19. And God made the earth a spread for you.

20. So you may move along its wide roads.’

Investing in Good Deeds: A Path to Eternal Success

In the hustle and bustle of life, it's easy to get lost in the mundane routines and forget the ultimate purpose behind our existence. However, for those who have faith in Allah, every moment presents an opportunity to invest in deeds that can lead to eternal success.

Life is a test—a fleeting journey filled with trials and tribulations. With this understanding, it becomes imperative to make the most of our time on earth by engaging in actions that please Allah and contribute positively to society.

In the Qur'an, Allah repeatedly emphasizes the importance of good deeds and righteous actions. 

Surah Al-Baqarah (2:25) reminds believers that the rewards of paradise are reserved for those who do good in this world.

This serves as a constant reminder that our actions have consequences not only in this life but also in the Hereafter.

Faith in Allah entails recognizing the brevity of life and understanding that every moment is precious. Instead of squandering our time on trivial pursuits, we should channel our energy into activities that align with the teachings of Islam and contribute to our spiritual growth.

Investing in good deeds is not only about securing a place in paradise but also about living a fulfilling and purposeful life. Acts of kindness, charity, honesty, and compassion not only benefit others but also elevate our own souls and draw us closer to Allah.

Moreover, the concept of 'Barakah' (blessings) teaches us that when we invest our time and resources in activities that please Allah, He amplifies the impact of our efforts, leading to greater rewards in this life and the Hereafter.

Ultimately, the pursuit of Jannah (paradise) should be the driving force behind our actions. As the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, "The world is but a provision, and the best provision of the world is a pious woman" (Muslim). 

This serves as a reminder that our focus should not solely be on worldly gains but on investing in deeds that will benefit us in the Hereafter.

In conclusion, faith in Allah calls upon us to be mindful of how we spend our time on earth. By investing in good deeds and striving to please Allah, we not only secure a place in paradise but also lead a life filled with purpose, fulfillment, and spiritual growth. Let us not waste our precious time in futility but instead strive to make every moment count in our journey towards eternal success.

How will be the ending of Israel

In holy Qur'an, we have a prediction about the ending of Is.rael, especially in Sourate Al Israa , regarding their corruption, we surely are living the second and last corruption…

In the verse 7 it's explained how it will end in 3 steps:

“Then, when the second warning was fulfilled, they disfigured your faces, entered the temple as they had entered it the first time, and utterly ravaged all that they overran.”

• Disfigurement of the Sionists face , meaning that they will appear in front of the whole world with their true face: greatest corruptors, criminals, hypocrites and liers in the world…We are leaving this phase during this period
• Entering the Al Aksa in Jerusalem, meaning the war will be won by Palestinians who will enter and allow all Muslims to access this Holy mosque
• Utterly ravaging all that the Sionists overran meaning that all their conspiracy, plots will be vain, they won't have any state anywhere in the world.

In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.

1. Blessed is He who journeyed His servant by night from the Sacred Mosque to the Farthest Mosque, the precincts We’ve blessed, to show him some of Our wonders. He is the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing.

2. We gave Moses the Scripture and made it a guide for the Children of Israel: “Take no protector other than Me.”

3. The descendants of those We carried with Noah; a thankful servant he was.

4. We forewarned the Children of Israel in the Scripture: “Twice you will spread corruption on earth, and you will ascend to a great height.”

5. When the first of these prophecies came to pass, We sent against you Our servants of formidable might, they ravaged through the homes, and it was a fulfilled warning.

6. Then, We gave you victory over them, reinforced you with wealth and children, and made you more numerous in human resources.

7. If you do good, it’s for yourself. If you do evil, it’s against yourselves. Then, when the second warning was fulfilled, they disfigured your faces, entered the temple as they had entered it the first time, and utterly ravaged all that they overran.

8. Perhaps your Lord will have mercy on you. If you revert, We will revert. We made Hell a prison for the disbelievers.

9. This Quran guides to what’s most upright and gives good news to the believers who do good deeds, that they’ll have a great reward
