By: T. Ansari The real confusion people have today is which religion to follow? All the religions have good managements, whether in the Churches, Temples, Cenigog's. They all are very colorful and very attractive. When anyone goes to those places it feels like they have joined a club, with all the status involved, whoever is rich over there has more respect, and then there is the difference in classes according to status and in some religions status is detrained by family background. What does Islam offer? Whoever is a Muslim, regardless how poor or rich, or of color, looks, family background, and what status he or she has if they are not following the Islamic law which comes from Allah, who is our creator and provider, they will be punished for there wrong deeds, and there good deeds would not be counted until they obey there creator and provider, Allah. As most of the people know, Muslims pray five times a day, with the ablution. The reason behind this is so they can perform there deeds from the morning to the afternoon, and so in the afternoon they can ask for forgiveness, and from the afternoon to the evening they can ask forgiveness, but they cannot make it a practice to perform that sin again and again. Otherwise there prayers will not be counted. Religion comes to this world, so that the person is not scared of the culture, or not to be scared of the local laws, they should only be scared of there Creator. Because from worldly laws, there always is a avenue out to break the law, without being caught. Allah, who is knows what is in our desires, and what we are going to think in the future, and what we are currently doing right now, it is fully controlled by Allah. Who is mighty, unique, which is beyond human comprehension. But, to understand the powers of Allah, we can only see about kilometer, and from a certain distance we can hear, and when we scream it can be heard up to a certain distance. But Allah can see unlimited, and can hear unlimited, regardless of distance, and his order comes to our brain, which cannot be seen, and what is called an "idea", or to "think", by us. The question raises is that where are we actually getting these messages, which helps us decide what to do and what not to do? When one thinks, who is talking to you behind, when you think about something, who is with you always? And if one sees the accuracy of Islam, Islamic laws benefit the soul only, and not to the body Because the body, as we know, it does not matter how beautiful you make it, it is only the soul which feels happy, and the soul has no color. When the soul comes to this world, no one can see it. And when one is enjoying something, people can see your smile, and they figure out that you are happy, but it is only you as an individual who only knows how happy you actually are. And when one is sad, sometimes you won't be crying, but you will still feel sad, it only appears on your facial expressions, and people then would figure out that you are not in a good mood. The conclusion of the talk above, is that the body is only for worldly matters which hare only materialistic things. The soul has nothing to do with the materials, the soul is only traveling in the body to pass its time in this world going towards its destination, where the soul came from originally, the time when the soul came to the baby, it is like one is traveling in a car. What we learned from the talk above, any religion which applies to the label, status, looks, that is a religion man made religion, and not from the creator. Because every religion would fail at a certain point. The laws in those religions, cannot be benefited equally from the poorest to the richest, or from a white, to a black person. Islamic law applies only to the soul. This proves, that only the religion of Islam is the answer for any human problem. And this religion came from Adam to Muhammed (SAW), and all of the prophets had the same message, Moses (Musa) and Jesus (Isa) and Muhammed (SAW), in order to benifit the soul, and not to the label or race. Which can be found commonly in any other religion accept for Islam. Today's Christianity, was not the actual message of Jesus (Isa). Or Judaism was not the actual message of Moses (Musa), why? Can anyone tell us where is the statue that Jesus use to ask from, or where is the statue that Moses use to ask from, they all asked from one Provider, and Sustainer Allah (SWT), who is the unseen and who has unlimited powers. They are so many things which can still be found from the time of Moses (Musa), museum's have something's left from the lifetime of Pharaoh. But one will never find a single stick from Moses, or Jesus. And where is the original cross of Jesus, when he was crucified?
