Gay and Lesbian culture that is; homosexuality, has not been permitted in Islam. There are some verses in the Holy Quran in which Allah clearly indicates thoughts about homosexuality. In the Holy Quran (7:80-81) Allah says that

“Do ye commit lewdness such as no people in creation committed before you? For ye practice your lusts on men in preference to women: ye are indeed a people transgressing beyond bounds.”

(26:165-166) “Of all the creatures in the world will ye approach males”. “And leave those whom Allah has created for you to be your mates? Nay ye are a people transgressing.” (11:82-83) “When our decree issued We turned upside down and rained down on them brimstones hard as baked clay spread layer on layer Marked as from thy Lord: Nor are they ever far from those who do wrong!” The final consequences for not surrendering homosexuality were the devastation of whole urban areas.

The Quran denies any sexual association other than after marriage between a lady and a man. A large number of gay men and ladies state that they are conceived with their sexual inclination & they have no option. Even though this focus is truly much in debate in the world of medical science, it has no backing in the Quran. Although a few of the European countries have declared homosexuality being legal and the followers can even marry each other. One cannot decide is it freedom of choice or modernism or what?

Everyone is well aware of the fact that life is some sort of test. And every person has their own test. For instance somebody is blind by birth, but the same person is living in accordance with the law of God. Others are short, poor, weak, having a big nose and so on, but all are the followers of God’s law. Few men or women may not marry in life, or choose to spend their lives without a spouse.

According to the Quran, they have still been living the chaste life by avoiding sexual links outside marriage. They need to subdue their sexual emotions to serve God’s law. This is a big test and not the easiest for anyone. Those who submitted to God will do all things they are able to obey His law. They are well aware that their salvation or endless joy rests in doing so.

If God condemns homosexuality, then we need to think that a lady or a man with homosexual tendencies are anticipated to act similar to any other individual and take God’s law if they really trust in it. They ought subdue their affections, maintain abstention, and utilize all ready sources of assistance in incorporating social, behavioral and medical treatments to help control their conduct and affections.

Media has always been an integral part of our lives. It is not only a source of information, entertainment but also we can learn a lot about a number of things in and about our lives. In old times radio was one of the biggest sources of information and entertainment as well. However, as the time passed by with the invention of television their attention slithered towards this masterpiece. Gradually, with the arrival of new channels people’s attention moved to television and thus became an important part of our lives.

In the present age there are numbers of channels for all age groups. There are channels for ladies, for kids, news channels, historical channels, science and tech related channels, regional channels, food and cooking channels, religious channels and much more. There is a controversy about some of the religious channels especially Islamic channels that they are not portraying true face of Islam to the world.

After 9/11 majority of the world got a negative image of Muslims and unfortunately Islam being a religion of peace was considered to be a religion in favor of terrorism and extremism and thus electronic media started portraying Muslims as terrorists. A wave of hatred all across the world degraded Muslims as a whole. This was the time when Islamic world need to respond especially Islamic channels needed to tell the whole world about the teachings of Islam.

But unfortunately many of the Islamic channels not all, already being involved in creating a negative image of Islam since they are a result of dirty politics and are backed by many anti Islamic unions and countries like Israel  and America and many more. Apart from that there are many channels who are so called Islamic channels but sadly they are not delivering the actual lessons of Islam in Asia and some of them are telecasted all over the globe. Only few of the Islamic channels are unbiased and are trying to tell the whole world that Islam does not favor terrorism and extremist activities at all. It a religion of peace and brotherhood and favors harmony in the whole world.

Many of the Islamic channels are considered valuable for those who want to learn about the teachings of Islam whether they are Muslims or non Muslims. Different informative programs being telecasted are helping a huge number of people to wipe out their doubts and uncertainties about Islam. Different scholars are playing a vital role in helping people to solve their problems in the light of Islam with Quranic and Hadith references. Thus making their statements authentic for them.

Thus if there are some channels giving a picture of Islam to the whole world then on the other hand there are many who are a helping hand and playing their part for Islam to regain its glory and respect as a religion and Muslims as believers of Islam which they lost due to several reasons.

Islamic Channels

 

Disinformation is widespread and has become the topic of the people’s meetings to express their misgivings, jealousy and anger. Those who are indulging in disinformation campaign are oblivious about the fact as they are merely harming themselves. Because on the Resurrection day both wronged and wrongdoer will stand in front of God who will reward his good deeds to the person against whom he dispersed disinformation. Many times we have some information about our business dealings. It is permitted to us to deliver the information to the concerned person. But it is not permitted to hide some important information from that person and include something on your own, this comes under disinformation.

Islam teaches that if the people are being involved in dispersing disinformation in your presence, you ought to defend it. If you neglect the same you will deprive yourself from mercy and help of God. Islam grants the freedom for the expression but with some restrictions and limitations for the purpose of safety and dignity of the individuals. Everyone can enjoy this freedom but within the limit of true information and disallowed the disinformation where this freedom becomes exploitation. The purpose of these limitations and checks is to secure the human freedom but not to deprive him of his rights. For the prevention of exploitation of human, such limits on the freedom of individuals have been placed to eradicate the elements that cause uncertainties and insecurities among the people.

Generally, you should have to follow the determinations and decisions of the Holy prophet (PBUH) who delivered the great message for humanity to not to believe or follow the things except those that are revealed to you. Disinformation is the evil process of today’s modern world that is exercised by the followers of Iblees or satin through which they take advantage for their wrongdoings.

Many anti Islamic groups have been running the disinformation campaign with the name of information for the sake of their revenges. The need is existed to clarify these disinformation campaigns by presenting the facts. The facts that are written in Holy Quran but it is necessary for you to take full information about Islam. In Islam all human beings have equal social rights and no one is superior to another on the basis of background, status, profession or cast. Superiority only deserves to those who are better in character and aptitude. These teachings of Islam clearly indicate that there is no permission for anyone to disperse disinformation in the name of information about anyone who is deprived in status. These fundamental teachings of Islam are now the basis of the modern world human rights criteria and deal with the law named as the law of defamation.

The Nakoula Basseley anti Islam movie is designed to stir trouble, both for Muslims and others who do not agree. It could be called a piece of poison, designed for inflaming hot heads against the Muslim world, and deserves to be treated with contempt for what it sets out to do.

It is a hoax movie which deliberately goes completely against Islam and our last Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (P.B.U.H). The movie titled as Innocence of Muslims created a fine storm in the youth of the Muslim world. The reaction towards disrespect of Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) by the Muslims was a completely disastrous situation. It resulted in the killing of Americans in Libya, as the Americans were killed in Libya by a Muslim group as a reaction to the anti American sentiment.

Part of the aftermath of this film has resulted in the killing of foreigners in Libya - Muslims

Including four Americans and J. Christopher, the American Ambassador. An extremist Muslim group was involved in attacking the embassy for United States of America. They burned down the building of embassy and opened fire on the American staff in embassy in Libya. According to the resources the malicious video had erroneous and evil low level stuff. The film was made in an attempt to ridicule the Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H).

This is yet another blasphemous attack on Muslims and their faith or beliefs. Apropos, the blasphemy law prohibits anyone to spread hate against any religions or be a cause of grief and disrupt between the followers of any religion. However, some the extremist groups of Muslims protested and gave strong reactions against the makers of the movie and actors and whatever that was being shown in the name movie or entertainment.

Their intolerance is obvious and they have started protesting – Muslims

These Muslims, although have all rights to protest and defend their beliefs and religion are accused of spreading terrorism in the region. United States of America protests against the killing of innocent Americans in Libya but at the same time have failed to ban or put an end to such activities by extremist anti Islam groups in America.

Innocence of Muslims by Nakoula Basseley was released on 9th September 2012. With the release of this movie Muslims around the world started showing their reaction and anger. Muslims in Libya burnt American Embassy and killed four Americans. Americans were behind the floating of this anti Islamic movie. Morally and ethically it is very wrong to target a certain religion and its followers. The video has been made with intention to spread hatred for Muslims and Islam. Islam is the religion of peace and does not permit such things and instructs its followers to respect other religions and all the prophets including Jesus and Moses.

In reaction to this disrespectful act and attack on beliefs the Muslim countries have blocked all those websites from their internet servers where this anti Islam movie called Innocence of Muslims was floated in reaction, and probably quite rightly so, to stop any more hatred and distrust being born and to try to stem the disrespect shown towards their religion.

Muslims have boycotted all American brands and chain stores available in their respective countries, again a punishment for innocent people on both sides of the debate. We cannot call it ignorance of Muslims now. They reacted dramatically at the launch of this low quality, immoral and low ethical movie erroneously, when ignoring it would have been a far greater punishment to the makers. Anger, hatred and adversity towards Americans should not be thought of as a symbol of love and respect towards their Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (P.B.U.H).

This was a reaction in result of perceived blasphemy. Muslims love their Allah Almighty and His last Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (P.B.U.H). Disrespect and making fun of any religion by anyone cannot be tolerated and ignored, but there are better ways to do this instead of bloodshed.

The month of Ramadan comes with great blessings for Muslims. It has been referred to as the ‘gift’ of Allah to Muslims, and a month in which Muslims get the opportunity to shun hell fire and straighten the path of their lives. The Holy Prophet (S.A.W) always emphasized on the importance of Ramadan and fasting. The importance of Ramadan can be highlighted from the fact that Ramadan was the month in which the Holy Quran was revealed as an absolute source of guidance for mankind.

Of the twelve months in the lunar year, Ramadan is the only one whose name has appeared in the Holy Quran, and Allah has also mentioned its importance. The days and nights of this holy month carry Allah’s blessings, mercy and forgiveness, and hence, are unparalleled to the days and nights of any other month in the year. (more…)

Most animals are similar in the way their bodies work physically. In all the animals, food is digested in a similar way and air intake occurs through a similar process. Energy generation, movement and all other bodily functions occur in a similar manner.

What makes humans unique as a race is the fact that their minds are much more developed. Scientists have always connected the functioning of human mind to the processes that occur in the human brain. Unlike animal minds, human minds do not just gather information about food, water and shelter and process it accordingly to reach these things. Human mind carries the powers of visualization and reflection. In this article, we will discuss the possible effects of religious fasting on the human brain.

According to researches carried out at the National Institute of Aging in Baltimore, fasting can help people with mental conditions like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Fasting for one or two days per week can even help people with perfectly sound brain operations. Professor Mark Mattson who is a professor of neuroscience at a leading medical school in the U.S was the lead author of this study. A great part of the study was based on the comparison of humans to other animals, and a lot of deductions of the study were drawn from an analysis of the specific effects produced by different actions in the other animals.

The results of the study were striking. Scientists who carried out this study have compared the effects of a cut on human food (energy) intake on the human brain cells as the effects of exercise on the muscle cells. Although most people think that a carefully crafted and properly controlled diet plan that runs throughout the week is a great way of losing weight. This continuous dieting, however, can affect the brain and some hormones in the body adversely. Scientists who carried out this study suggest that intermittent breaks from meals for one or two days per week work better than continuous dieting plans, because these ‘fasting’ plans help improve the functioning of the brain.

In the following, a few positive impacts of fasting on brain are enlisted:

-          Short term fasting induces an increase in neural autophagy

-          Boost in the production of ketones

-          Reduction in risk of trauma, stroke and depression

-          Calorie restriction through intermittent fasting reduces the risks of Alzheimer’s and Huntington’s disease.

In some animals, restriction of calorie intake results evidently in a prolonging of lifespan, and most scientists believe that the same is true for humans. However, no concrete evidence of this has been furnished yet.

Religious fasting may help us to not only become better human beings, but also to improve our physical and mental fitness.
