Q1: Most ulema say that Only Muslims will be rewarded heaven and no non-Muslim will go to heaven because what virtue they did, were awarded accordingly in this world and has therefore No reward in hereafter. What are your views about them? |
|
A: There is no doubt that almighty Allah does not accept any religion but Islam. Almighty Allah said:” And whoso seeks as religion other than Islam it will not be accepted from him, and he will be a loser in the Hereafter". Sura 3, Verse 35. |
|
Q2: I am wondering what happened if someone convert from Islam to Christianity what happened to him? I was born in the west and no one teach me |
|
A: Almighty Allah has sent prophets to mankind to guide people to believe in Him. The last amongst them and their seal is the master of prophets and messengers Mohamed, the son of Abdullah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny). Clear evidence to this prophecy is the holy Quran. It has great characters that prove its revelation from God.
"And whose seek as religion other than Islam it will not be accepted from him, and he will be a loser in the Hereafter" Sura 3, Verse 85. |
|
Q3: Are Faraedh and Wajebaat one and the same thing or is there some difference between the two? |
|
A: It has been reported in some of the texts narrated by the Imams
of the Ahlulbyte that the term "Faraedah" refers to what almighty Allah has
obligated in the holy Book and the term "wajib" refers to all obligations -
in general - including those derived from the narrations of the prophet and the imams (peace be upon them). |
|
Q4: Does Islam reject violence? |
|
A: Yes, Islam stressed on guarding the values of morality, wisdom and dialogue. Almighty Allah said: “Call unto the way of thy Lord with wisdom and fair exhortation, and reason with them in the better way”. The Prophet (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) said: “leniency is not used with anything and not made it better, and is not striped from anything and made it worse”. And he also said: “Islam enchains betrayal. So a believer does not betray”. The teachings of Islam stressed on guarding lives and protecting innocent t people and to avoid criminal actions and unjustified violence. |
|
Q5: How do you see the relations of the Islamic world with the west? |
|
A: Presumably, there should be a review to the backgrounds of the past positions and start a new era of relations and sensible dialogue that reserve the legitimate rights and participate in world peace and security away from any extremism and prepotency that used to govern the relations in the past.
We encourage Muslims to present the real Islam and its humane concepts that coordinate with human nature without adopting the actions of the Muslim rulers in the past centuries since those rulers – in general – were like all rulers who care about their own welfare and did not mind using Islam and distorting its image to protect their rule.
We can see the true Islam clearly in the biography of the prophet and the Imams of the Ahlulbyte (peace be upon them) through the many incidents in history. Imam Ali (peace be upon him) although he was the legitimate leader, he refused to use force with those who refused his authority and gave them the chance to express their peaceful opposition. In all his wars, he was not the one to start the fight. The same can be said about Imam Hussein (peace be upon him). Although he rose to reform, but he did not start the fight with the advance guards of the Umayyad army that was sent by the ruler of Kufa, bin zyad when Imam was advised by his own companions to do so. Rather, he insisted that he will not be the one to start the fight. Indeed, it was Umayyad army that started the fight against him. |
