Sahifah al-Sadiqah: The First Book of Hadith

In the Name of Allah---the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. Sahifah al-Sadiqah: The First Book of Hadith by Sajid Mahmood Ansari During the early stages of the revelation of the Qur'an, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) took measures to ensure that his words, known as hadith, were not recorded alongside the Qur'an. This decision was made to prevent any potential confusion between the divine scripture, the Qur'an, and the sayings or actions of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). The primary reason for this distinction was to safeguard the Qur'an's unique status as the direct word of God, as Muslims believe it was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) through the angel Gabriel. The Qur'an is considered the ultimate and unalterable source of guidance for Muslims, containing the teachings, principles, and laws that form the foundation of the Islamic faith and practice. Narrated by Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri that the Messenger of All

History of the Spiral Universe

In the Name of Allah---the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. History of the Spiral Universe Author: Sajid Mahmood Anasri We discussed the structure of the universe in our previous article titled The Spiral Universe .  We concluded that the universe is spinning on its axis like a giant spiral galaxy. We drew this conclusion on the basis of the Prophetic narrative and observational data. Now, this paper aims to give a brief history of the universe again with the help of observational data. In our paper Basics of the Muslim Cosmology , we spotted the light on the faith in creation in Islam and how the scientific theories progressed towards a universe that had an origin in the remote past. However, this paper aims to give an updated history of the spiral universe, from origin to present, based on Muslim Cosmology. Divine Programming Allah Almighty says:             “Glorify the name of your Lord, the Exalted, Who created, then evolved. And Who programmed then guided.” [1]

Signs of Almighty God in Photosynthesis

In the Name of Allah---the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. Signs of Almighty God in Photosynthesis Photosynthesis is the amazing process by which plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to create food and oxygen. Just like we need food to survive, plants need it too, but they make their food themselves. It's like they have their own kitchen inside their leaves! Here's how it works: Plants have a special substance called chlorophyll that gives them their green color. When sunlight shines on the leaves, the chlorophyll captures its energy. This energy helps the plant combine carbon dioxide from the air and water from the ground to create a sugary substance called glucose. Think of glucose as the plant's food. It's like a yummy energy snack for them! But that's not all. As a byproduct of making food, plants release something very important for us: oxygen! This is the same oxygen we breathe in to stay alive. Photosynthesis in Lab? It is no

The Secrets Revealed | Unit 1 | Ritual Purification | Section 3

In the Name of Allah---the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. The Impure Water Imam ibn Qudamah al-Maqdisi al-Hanbali said: If the impurity is removed by the water while it is still undergoing a change (i.e., the properties of the water are still altered), or before the impurity ceases to exist, then the water is considered impure. However, if the water separates from its location without causing any change in its properties after the impurity ceases to exist, then the water is considered pure if the location is on the ground. If the location is not on the ground, then the water is considered pure according to the more valid of the two opinions. Is it considered purifying? There are two opinions on this matter. If a woman utilizes the water for ritual purification alone, then it remains purifying. However, it is not permissible for a man to perform ritual purification with it, according to the apparent view in the madhab. The third category: Impure water. This refers to water

In the Name of Allah---the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. Divine Programming and Organic Evolution Organic evolution, often referred to simply as evolution, is the process of change and diversification of life forms over generations. It is a fundamental concept in biology that explains the patterns and mechanisms by which species arise, adapt, and become extinct. Organic evolution might be referred to as Divine Programming for the diversity of life on Earth. What is Speciation? Speciation is the process by which new species arise from existing ones. It is a fundamental concept in evolutionary biology, explaining how the incredible diversity of life on Earth has emerged over millions of years. Biologists believe that new species arise through natural selection. Speciation is the process by which new species arise from existing ones. It is a fundamental concept in evolutionary biology, explaining how the incredible diversity of life on Earth has emerged over million

اعوذ باللہ من الشیطٰن الرجیم

بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
The Holy Qur'an is the Sacred Book of the Muslims unanimously, that was revealed to the Last Messenger Muhammad (May Allah shower His blessings and peace on him). This blog is dedicated to deliver the Message of the Qur'an to the modern world in the English language. Every translation and interpretation shows the understandings of the text that the translator or interpreter concludes from his study of the Qur'an. This is also true for the translation and interpretation, that is presented on this blog Qur'anic Academics. On this blog Sajid Mahmood Ansari is translating and interpreting the Quranic narratives in the light of the best interpretation of the Qur'an---Authentic Hadiths (Prophetic Traditions) through a rationalist approach. The Holy Qur'an demands a rationalist approach to comprehend its meanings. Allah Almighty says:
"And those who, when reminded of the Ayat (verses) of their Lord, do not fall upon them deaf and blind."[25:73]
Then do they not reflect upon the Qur'an, or are there locks upon [their] hearts? [47:24]
Though he has focused on exoteric meanings generally, however, esoteric meanings are also mentioned if necessary.

Qiraat Sab'ah (Seven Canonical Recitations of the Holy Qur'an) have been transmitted through numerous successive chains and considered Mutawatir by the Muslim scholarship. However, there are slight differences of eloquence,short and long vowel sounds, stress and softness of the consonants. These differences in Qiraat cause slight and tolerable differences in meanings as well.On, this page, the Qiraat transmitted through Ali bin Abi Talib (peace be upon him) has been adopted.  For conforming with standard English in translation, Sajid Mahmood Ansari has adopted the syntax of Muhammad Asad's translation, that is considered an exceptional work in the West. Muhammad Asad (ex Leopold Weiss) [12 July 1900 – 20 February 1992] was an Austro-Hungarian-born Muslim journalist and scholar, who converted to Islam from Judaism in 1926. His famous best selling autobiography 'The Road to Makkah' won great fame for him. 

However, Asad's translation has not been copied here as it is, instead, on many places certain amendments have been induced to conform with Ali's Qirat and authentic Hadiths. 
We seek refuge in Allah Almighty from Satanic inspirations and ask for His help to complete this translation. Ameen
We request all the scholars to oversee this translation and notes carefully and guide me if they find any mistake please!
