Hadith Regarding Seeking Forgiveness from Allah Almighty

On the authority of Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:

"I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: Allah the Almighty said: O son of Adam, so long as you call upon Me and ask of Me, I shall forgive you for what you have done, and I shall not mind. O son of Adam, were your sins to reach the clouds of the sky and were you then to ask forgiveness of Me, I would forgive you. O son of Adam, were you to come to Me with sins nearly as great as the earth and were you then to face Me, ascribing no partner to Me, I would bring you forgiveness nearly as great as it. It was related by at-Tirmidhi (also by Ahmad ibn Hanbal). Its chain of authorities is sound." [40 Hadith Qudsi, Hadith no.34]

Six are the rights of a Muslim over another Muslim. It was said to him: Allah's Messenger, what are these? Thereupon he said: When you meet him, offer him greetings;when he invites you to a feast accept it. when he seeks your council give him, and when he sneezes and says:" All praise is due to Allah," you say Yarhamuk Allah (may Allah show mercy to you) ; and when he falls ill visit him; and when he dies follow his bier(attending his funeral). [Sahih Muslim 2162b]

Views on Current Political Situation of the Ummah

     As you all know that the situation in Palestine particularly in Gaza is worsening with each passing day. Israel has also arrested all the peaceful activists of the Sumud Flotilla which were aiming to go to Gaza to transport aid and in hopes to finish the Israeli siege imposed on Gaza. While all this is happening there have been discussions about a peace deal in Gaza that was proposed by Trump after talks with 8 Muslim countries. This peace deal is nothing but a death warrant that Trump, Netanyahu and the Muslims rulers who are slaves of the West are forcing Hamas to sign as this article was written a couple of days ago so I might not be aware of the current updates. Hamas has agreed to some of the proposals which I will discuss later in this article. The first one to appreciate Trump on this deal was Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif who proved his loyalty to Trump showing how good of a slave he is. After the backlash on Social Media regarding this deal many of the 8 Muslim countries including Pakistan's Foreign Minister and Qatar's Prime Minister have backed off from this deal clarifying that this was not a deal that was signed by them with Trump. How stupid and naive our rulers are that they thought that the US and Israel will keep there word. Aren't they aware that the US and Israel have a history of breaking agreements with others as it is in there nature to sting like scorpions. At the beginning of this year Israel signed a ceasefire deal with Hamas in exchange for hostages but that didn't stop them from murdering more Palestine while they were also bombing Lebanon. Israel is already in a ceasefire deal with Hezbollah but time and again they break that deal and conduct airstrikes in Lebanon. Similarly back in June the US lured Iran into negotiating a nuclear deal but Israel murdered the very Iranian officials who were negotiating with the US. In all of these deals that were signed by the US and Israel with Hamas and Hezbollah were broken by the US and Israel while Hamas and Hezbollah kept there word. Similarly the US has signed multiple peace deals with Ansarallah as well but still continues to support Israel in bombing Yemen to target Ansarallah. The list of this betrayal by the US and Israel is long but our Muslim rulers are slaves to there worldly desires and unfortunately fear the US more than Allah. 

    Muslim rulers especially the gulf countries who have got tremendous amount of wealth and resources can spend them in buying lavish cars and properties around the world but can not use this wealth to fund the resistance against Israel or any other genocidal regime which kills Muslims. Infact UAE is directly involved in supporting gangs who are committing war crimes in Sudan. Similarly Azerbaijan is still selling Oil to Israel which is then used in tanks and aircrafts that bomb Gaza. This oil is exported to Israel via pipeline that passes through Türkiye. I do appreciate Erdoğan and Türkiye because they have done a lot better than other Muslim rulers who have done nothing for Palestine but it is still not enough. Erdoğan has got the ability and the courage to do lot better than what he has done so far for Palestine. I do acknowledge that he is better than rest of the Muslim leaders and that is the reason that he has disappointed the most. Yes he often calls Israel a terrorist state which is very bold of him but this is just rhetoric and Erdoğan has done nothing beyond this to help Hamas. He often calls Hamas a resistance movement but if he really believes so than he should at least supply Hamas with Turkish drones and weapons. Erdoğan can force Azerbaijan which has deep ties with Turkiye to stop supplying oil to Israel if he doesn't do any of this than this is nothing but hypocrisy. Another thing which I will mention here is that it took Türkiye about an year and a half to stop trade with Israel. While all this time Palestinians were being martyred by Isreal the trade between the two countries kept on increasing. Similarly Pakistan which did so well in there war against India in May and proved how compatible there army is but they can not do anything to train Hamas. They have tarnished the reputation that they gained after winning the war against India due there selfishness and lack of adequate action to liberate Palestine. The same goes for Saudi Arabia which champions itself as the custodian of Hejaz but they have banned the Imams of the two Holy Mosques from praying for Palestine. Infact Sheikh Al Sudais who is the chief imam of Masjid Al Haram called Gaza a fitnah and refrained people from talking about it. The reality is that it is the Muslim rulers and there puppet scholars who are a fitnah for the Ummah. It is not like most of these rulers can not do anything but the problem is that they choose not do because most of them as I said before are either cowards or slaves of there worldly desires or the West or may be they really are stupid. If our rulers really have any of these shortcomings then I ask the brave people of the Ummah do they deserve to be our rulers? Even Hamas has got more political wisdom and courage then most of the puppet rulers of the Ummah. Hamas has agreed on some of the proposals of Trump's peace plan. It has appreciated the Arab, Islamic, and international efforts, as well as those of US President Donald Trump to resolve the conflict. Hamas has also agreed to release hostages under the provision of right field conditions but it has denied Trump's proposal to disarm. Hamas has also asked for the complete withdrawal of Israel from Gaza. They have also denied the establishment of a International transitional government which was to be led by Tony Blair. Tony Blair was British Prime Minister back in 2003 during the American led invasion of Iraq. He is the one who lied to the world and to the British people and launched an unjustified war on Iraq on false claims of Iraq harbouring 'weapons of mass destruction' which was just a lie orchestrated by the United States and its allies to kill Iraqis and steal Iraq's mineral resources. Instead Hamas has agreed on handing over the government to Palestinian technocrats with Islamic and Arab support. Even Trump has appreciated Hamas's positive response and he has also asked Israel to stop bombing Gaza. Regarding the issue of the rights of the Palestinians Hamas has said that this should be decided on the basis of a consensus between various Palestinian factions including Hamas. Regarding rest of the proposals they have said that they require clarity and more negotiations. They haven't said anything about disarming. These were the counter proposals that Hamas has proposed so far. It has shifted the pressure back on Israel. It shows that Hamas possesses more political intellect then all of the Muslim rulers combined. It is still quite unsure whether Israel or the US will act on this agreement or not but let's pray to Allah that this is helpful for Palestine and for the Ummah.

     It is so shameful that the World leaders especially the Muslim leaders were silent when Israel was prosecuting a genocide in Gaza. There have been large scale crackdown around the world against Pro Palestine protestors which shows how much the West cares about freedom of expression and also shows how hypocrite and coward most Muslim governments are. Everyone is forcing Hamas to accept the proposals and threatening them with consequences but no one is threatening Israel if it continues to kill Palestinians. It has been two years since this genocide started but the entire world watched and failed humanity and the Palestinians. This is more shameful for the Ummah and its leaders in particular because Palestinians have a much more stronger bond with the Muslims then they have with the rest of the World. According to a Hadith of a Prophet Muhammad SAW all the believers are like brothers to each other and should help each other if they are in trouble. All the children that were killed by Isreal were infact our children and all the men who were killed were like our fathers, brothers and sons. It means that all the women that were raped, tortured or murdered by Isreal in Palestine were like our Mothers, Sisters or Daughters. Would you allow something like this to happen to your son, father, mother or sister? Obviously not. We are all Muslims and Allah and his messenger have ordered us to help the oppressed. People of Palestine are the ones who are being oppressed so we as Muslims need to help them. Yes it is true that most of the rulers of the Ummah are greedy of power and wealth or are afraid to stand up to the West or are just selfish but it doesn't mean Muslims should be silent for the atrocities that are happening against Muslims around the world but rather we should put as much pressure as we can on our rulers to break the shackles of slavery. Yes it is true that most of the Muslim rulers are oppressive dictators sponsored by the West who can not tolerate you questioning there cowardice or protesting against them. They might arrest you or even kill you to crush your voice but remember no matter how much tyranny they impose on you it would still be nothing compared to the atrocities that the Palestinians and other oppressed Muslims around the world have gone through. According to a Hadith of Prophet Muhammad saying a word of Justice to an oppressive ruler is the best form of Jihad a believer can do. Indeed if you push your rulers to take action to help your Muslim brothers and sisters than it is also a Jihad and if you are killed than you will be a martyr. Remember that Allah will surely question our rulers for there wrong doings and there silence when Muslims were being oppressed around the world but Allah will question you as well for not raising your voice for your Muslim brothers and sisters. Our Muslim brothers and sisters are being oppressed in Palestine, Kashmir, East Turkistan, India and elsewhere and we as Muslims need to raise our voices for them so that they can know that they are not alone and they can firmly resist the tyranny they are going through. O Allah guide our rulers and bless them courage and intellect. O Allah help those people around the world who are fighting for Islam and who are fighting for there dignity. O Allah keep them steadfast against the enemies of Islam. O Allah give us the strength and courage to stand up against our rulers to question there hypocrisy, greed and incompetence.

Relativistic time mentioned in the Quran

    In this blog, I have written about the verse of the Holy Quran in which Allah Almighty talks about the relativity of time.

Translation of verse 5 of Surah As-Sajdah

He conducts(governs) everything from the heavens to the earth, and then everything ascends to him on a day whose length by your reckoning is a thousand years.

Explanation 

            The above-mentioned verse of the Holy Quran talks about a very famous concept in physics, which is the relativity of time, also known as time dilation. Late 19th and early 20th century scientists such as Lorentz, Emil Kuhn, Hermann Minkowski, Albert Einstein and many others theorized this concept, but Einstein made the greatest contribution. Time dilation deals with the fact that time is not absolute but relative. In general, time dilation is defined as how fast or how slow time will pass depending on the reference frame (accelerating/moving or non-accelerating/at rest or speeds much slower than the speed of light). Time is also affected by the pull of gravity on an object. This means that time will pass more slowly for someone moving at or near the speed of light than for someone moving at normal speed or not moving at all. For example, after spending 6 months on the International Space Station (ISS), orbiting the Earth at a speed of about 7,700 m/s, an astronaut's lifespan would be about 0.005 seconds less than that on Earth. This also means that time is also affected by gravity. The greater the gravity, the slower the time. For example, if someone is on the moon, their clock ticks faster because time passes faster for them than for someone on Earth. This is because the Earth's gravity is stronger than the Moon's gravity. In addition to this time could also slow. Down near massive objects such as supermassive blackhole etc. The reason for this is because masaive or heavy object have more gravitational pull which can slow down time.


     Now, if we move back to the verse, in the first part of the verse, there is a mention of Allah conducting every matter from heavens to Earth. These matters refer to the commands of Allah who govern this and all the heavens. Without His command, not even a particle of dust or a leaf can move by itself. It is his command which governs each and everything which is happening around us. With his command, we breathe and live our lives. It is his command with which we come into this world, and with his command, one day we will die as well. This is the glory of Allah. Then in the next part of the verse, it is mentioned that 'all this ascends to him on a day whose length is a thousand years of our reckoning.' The last part of this verse falls under the category of Relativistic time or Time dilation. A thousand years, by our reckoning,, could mean that a thousand years in our frame of reference is equal to one day in Allah's frame of reference. Time could be slower in Allah's frame of reference due to various factors that slow time, which I have mentioned above, such as gravity, mass and size of the throne and Qursi of Allah, and there could be some other factors involved in this as well, and Allah knows best. This verse is one of the many verses of the Holy Qur'an which describe scientific facts so accurately that 1400 years ago when people of that time could not even imagine such a thing. This is clear proof that the Holy Quran is the book of Allah and it has been sent to guide us. One thing to note is that this verse and all other scientific verses of the Quran do not make the Quran a book of science. This is a book of 'signs'. The mention of such signs or such verses is only so that we can ponder upon the greatness and wisdom of Allah Almighty.

      One thing to keep in mind is that there can be various others explanations of this verse and only Allah Almighty knows what is the correct explanation.

Views of Al-Kindi on Relativistic Time

     Al-Kindi (801-873AD) was a famous Muslim scientist who lived during the Islamic Golden Age. He was one of the most esteemed scholars of his time. He worked extensively in fields like medicine, astronomy, physics, mathematics, optics, etc. He was also a pioneer of cryptography and scientific methodology. Al-Kandi is said to have proposed an unproven theory of relativity 1,100 years before Einstein.

     Al-Kindi argued in his book al-Falsafa al-Aula that a person sees an object whose size is small or large according to the vertical movement between the earth and the sky. If a person moves towards the sky, he will see the trees getting smaller and if he moves towards the earth, he will see the trees getting bigger. According to al-Kindi, objects, time, motion and space are not only relative to each other but also to other objects and observers who observe them. He viewed it as an essence of the law of existence.

I am near to the thought of My servant as he thinks about Me, and I am with him as he remembers Me. And if he remembers Me in his heart, I also remember him in My Heart, and if he remembers Me in assembly I remember him in assembly, better than his (remembrance), and if he draws near Me by the span of a palm, I draw near him by the cubit, and if he draws near Me by the cubit I draw near him by the space (covered by) two hands. And if he walks towards Me, I rush towards him. [Sahih Muslim 2675 a]
