Some Benefits of Islam part{4}


The Fourth and Last
(4)Forgiveness for All Previous SinsWhen someone converts to Islam, God forgives all of his previous sins and evil deeds. A man called Amr came to the Prophet Muhammad and said, “Give me your right hand so that I may give you my pledge of loyalty.” The Prophet stretched out his right hand. Amr withdrew his hand. The Prophet said: {What has happened to you, O Amr?} He replied, “I intend to lay down a condition.” The Prophet asked: {What condition do you intend to put forward?} Amr said, “That God forgive my sins.” The Prophet said: {Didn’t you know that converting to Islam erases all previous sins?} AllahAfter converting to Islam, the person will be rewarded for his or her good and bad deeds according to the following saying of the Prophet Muhammad : {Your Lord, Who is blessed and exalted, is most merciful. If someone intends to do a good deed but does not do it, a good deed will be recorded for him. And if he does do it, (a reward of) ten to seven hundred or many more times (the reward of the good deed), will be recorded for him. And if someone intends to do a bad deed but does not do it, a good deed will be recorded for him. And if he does do it, a bad deed will be recorded against him or God will wipe it out.} Subhaana Allah

Some Benefits of Islam part{3}

The Third Point
(3)Real Happiness and Inner PeaceReal happiness and peace can be found in submitting to the commands of the Creator and the Sustainer of this world. God has said in the QuranTruly, in remembering God do hearts find rest.Quran, 13:28On the other hand, the one who turns away from the Quran will have a life of hardship in this world. God has saidBut whoever turns away from the Quran he will have a hard life, and We will raise him up blind on the Day of JudgmentQuran, 20:124This may explain why some people commit suicide while they enjoy the material comfort money can buy. For example, look at Cat Stevens (now Yusuf Islam), formerly a famous pop singer who used to earn sometimes more than $150,000 a night. After he converted to Islam, he found true happiness and peace, which he had not found in material success

The Second Point

(2)Salvation from Hellfire: God has said in the QuranThose who have disbelieved and died in disbelief, the earth full of gold would not be accepted from any of them if one offered it as a ransom. They will have a painful punishment, and they will have no helpers.Quran, 3:91So, this life is our only chance to win Paradise and to escape from Hellfire, because if someone dies in disbelief, he will not have another chance to come back to this world to believe. As God has said in the Quran about what is going to happen for the unbelievers on the Day of JudgmentIf you could but see when they are set before the Fire (Hell) and say, “Would that we might return (to the world)! Then we would not reject the verses of our Lord, but we would be of the believers!” Quran, 6:27.But no one will have this second opportunityThe Prophet Muhammad said: {The happiest man in the world of those doomed to the Fire (Hell) on the Day of Judgment will be dipped in the Fire once. Then he will be asked, “Son of Adam, did you ever see any good? Did you ever experience any blessing?” So he will say, “No, by God, O Lord!”}

Also, the Prophet Muhammad said: {A space in Paradise *****alent to the size of a foot would be better than the world and what is in it.} He also said: {In Paradise there are things which no eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no human mind has thought of.} He also said: {The most miserable man in the world of those meant for Paradise will be dipped once in Paradise.

I never faced any misery, and I never experienced any hardship.”} Allah without sickness, pain, sadness, or death; God will be pleased with you; and you will live there forever. God has said in the QuranBut those who believe and do good deeds, We will admit them to gardens (Paradise) in which rivers flow, lasting in them forever.... Quran, 4:570

About Islam

Human Rights and Justice in Islam
Islam provides many human rights for the individual.
The following are some of these human rights that Islam protects
The life and property of all citizens in an Islamic state are considered sacred,
whether a person is Muslim or not.
Islam also protects honor. So, in Islam, insulting others or making fun of them is not allowed. The Prophet Muhammad said: {Truly your blood, your property, and your honor are inviolable}
yes

Racism is not allowed in Islam, for the Quran speaks of human equality in the following terms
O mankind , we have created you from a male and a female and have made you into nations and tribes for you to know one another. Truly the noblest of you with God is the most pious. Truly, God is All0Knowind , All-Aware ...Quran 49 : 13
Islam rejects certain individuals or nations being favored because of their wealth, power, or race. God created human beings as equals who are to be distinguished from each other only on the basis of their faith and piety. The Prophet Muhammad said: {O people! Your God is one and your forefather (Adam) is one. An Arab is not better than a non-Arab and a non-Arab is not better than an Arab, and a red (i.e. white tinged with red) person is not better than a black person and a black person is not better than a red person,except in piety.} subhaanu

One of the major problems facing mankind today is racism. The developed world can send a man to the moon but cannot stop man from hating and fighting his fellow man. Ever since the days of the Prophet Muhammad , Islam has provided a vivid example of how racism can be ended. The annual pilgrimage (Hajj) to Makkah shows the real Islamic brotherhood of all races and nations, when about two million Muslims from all over the world come to Makkah to perform the pilgrimage

Islam is a religion of justice. God has said
Truly God commands you to give back trusts to those to whom they are due, and when you judge between people, to judge with justice.... (Quran, 4:58)Allah And He has said
...And act justly. Truly, God loves those who are just. Quran, 49:9 We should even be just with those who we hate, as God has said

...And let not the hatred of others make you avoid justice. Be just: that is nearer to piety.... Quran, 5:8The Prophet Muhammad said: {People, beware of injustice, for injustice shall be darkness on the Day of Judgment
And those who have not gotten their rights (i.e. what they have a just claim to) in this life will receive them on the Day of Judgment, as the Prophet said: {On the Day of Judgment, rights will be given to those to whom they are due (and wrongs will be redressed)...} ya Allah
