The Night Jour­ney : The Mir­a­cle of Isra’ and Mi’raj

By

The verse of Isra’ in the Qur’an is clear not liable to hes­i­ta­tion or reluc­tance in say­ing that Allah had caused His ser­vant to trav­el by night from Al-Masjid Al-Haram to Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa like you say ; I trav­eled by night from such and such place to such and such place. So, there is no room for hes­i­ta­tion and ask­ing whether this was with body or spir­it, or awake or dur­ing sleep. Also, it is inap­pro­pri­ate to dis­agree regard­ing the mean­ing of this night jour­ney or regard­ing the word ​‘Abd, i.e., ser­vant, and whether it refers to the spir­it, to the body or to both, as it has hap­pened between those claim­ing bod­i­ly Isra and oth­ers claim­ing spir­i­tu­al Isra.

Respond­ing To Banal Mis­sion­ary ​“Log­ic”: Can There Be A Son With­out A Moth­er Or Father ?

By

Unfor­tu­nate­ly for the mis­sion­ary, an under­stand­ing can be reached if a lit­tle more thought can be put into their argu­ment. The mis­sion­ary has tak­en the under­stand­ing of these vers­es out of its intend­ed con­text and is con­fus­ing Mary’s nature (since she is only human, and hence pro­cre­ates) as a cre­ation of the Almighty, with God Him­self who is the Uncre­at­ed. Cer­tain­ly, God Almighty could have tak­en a ​“wife” and have ​“chil­dren” or have ​“chil­dren” with­out any con­sort what­so­ev­er (nau’zu­bil­lahi min zaa­lik).

Con­text and Rel­e­vance : Sūra At-Taw­bah Reexamined

By

This arti­cle delves into Sura At-Taw­bah, one of the Qur’an’s piv­otal chap­ters, reex­am­in­ing its his­tor­i­cal con­text, inter­pre­ta­tions, and ongo­ing rel­e­vance. We explore how this Sura address­es issues of jus­tice, peace, and the com­plex­i­ties of treaty oblig­a­tions, offer­ing insights into its teach­ings and their impli­ca­tions for con­tem­po­rary understanding.
