Qur'Anic Thoughts : Volume I In The Qur'An Unchained Series

Qur'anic Thoughts are 99 chapters of various topics by the author that reveal Qur'anic truths. The Qur'an is used to judge what Muslims are supposed to believe as opposed to what they have been taught, indoctrinated to believe. 5:49 So judge between them by what God has revealed. And do not follow their vain desires. Beware of them, lest they divert you from some of what God has revealed to you. If they turn away from the truth, be assured that God has decided to chastise them for some of their crimes. A great many people drift away from the right path. We read in the Qur'an: 2:8 And of mankind there are those who claim, "We believe in God and the Last Day," while they are not believers. [Their actions that speak louder than words, contradict their claim. 4:136, 49:15] 2:9 They wish to deceive God and those who have attained belief. But they deceive none but themselves and realize it not. [They are living in a state of denial. Since reason is a prime human quality that must to be used and they have forsaken it, they are little aware of what opportunity of personal development they are missing] 2:10 (This negative attitude) is a disease in their hearts, and God (His laws) increases their disease. And for them is a painful suffering, for, they lie to themselves. [Their attitude reinforces itself according to the laws of Cause and Effect. The conflict between one's word and action amounts to self-deception that has dire consequences] 2:18 Deaf, dumb and blind of reason! They will not return to journey in the right direction (unless they use reason. 8:22, 16:76, 17:36). We must look within ourselves to see what is wrong but as we see, we think we are right when we are wrong. We must fully acknowledge that there is One God, Allah, and He has given us Guidance to live our lives and, as noted, this is not lip service, blind recitation of the Qur'an back to the One Who gave this to us, but careful study, understanding and then implementation of all its teachings. 39:23 God has now revealed the best Hadith, a Book fully consistent within itself. It marks out both ways (to success and failure) repeating its messages in diverse forms. Herewith shiver the skins of those who have some idea of the glory of their Lord, and then, their skins and their hearts soften at remembrance of God. This is the Guidance of God, and with it He guides one who seeks guidance. Whereas one who follows a path that God has declared to be wrong, goes astray and he cannot find a guide. [4:88, 15:87. Hadith = Narration] Unchain the Qur'an and the Qur'an will set you free.
