1 Interpretation of the Quran- Surat -Al-An am (6)- Lesson (69)- Verse [151]: Unrightfully kill Turning away and Relinquishment. Praise be to Allah, the Lord of Creations, and Peace and blessings be upon our prophet Muhammad, the faithful and the honest. Oh, Allah, w e know nothing but w hat You teach us. You are the All- Know er, the Wise. Oh Allah, teach us w hat is good for us, and benefit us from w hat You taught us, and increase our know ledge. Show us the righteous things as righteous and help us to do them, and show us the bad things as bad and help us to keep aw ay from them. O Allah our Lord, lead us out from the depths of darkness and illusion, unto the lights of erudition and know ledge, and from the muddy shallow s of lusts unto the heavens of Your Vicinity. Three extracted lessons from the verse: Dear brothers, in our 69th. lecture in Surat al An am, versus 151,from w hich three lessons are extracted, the verse: " Say ( O Mohammad-PBUH):Come, I w ill recite w hat your Lord has prohibited you from: join not anything in w orship w ith Him; The First lesson: Polytheism The first lesson learned of this verse w as about the hidden (secret) and obvious polytheism. be good and dutiful to your parents; second lesson: devotion to parents The second lesson w as about devotion to parents. kill not your children because of poverty We provide sustenance for you and for them. The third lesson: children care and upbringing. The third lesson w as about children care and upbringing, and today w e move to the forth lesson learnt of this verse, and Allah -the Al- Mighty saying: come not near to Al-Faw ahish ( shameful sins, illegal sexual intercourse) w hether committed openly or secretly; and kill not any one w hom Allah has forbidden, except for a just cause ( according to Islamic Law ). This He has commanded you that you may understand. Keep a safety margin between you and Al-Fawahish: come not near:

2 Oh brothers, the accurate point is Allah's saying " come not near", definitely it's the w ords of Allah, the creator of universes, the All-Aw are, the All-Know er, the Creator, the Excellence, the conductor, is forbidding us not from implementing Al-Faw ahish, but from coming near Al- Faw ahish. So, if the All-Aw are said: come not near. If a person holds the degree of philosophy in electricity engineering; designed a high pressure cable, he puts signs far from the cable: don't come near, high pressure, as this cable has a draw ing pow er;-as I knew beforew ithin 8meters, so if a person approaches w ithin these 8 meters he'll turn to a black coal. So, the w arning sign should be: it's forbidden to come near to the electrical current.. if an ignorant person w rote: it's forbidden to touch the cable; he's an idiot then as he'll die before even touching it. So, w hen Allah, the creator of universes, the Lord of Heavens and earth, the creator of human beings, the All-Aw are, the All-Know er " come not near" it means a person should leave a safety margin betw een oneself and Al-Faw ahish. These are the limits(set) by Allah, so approach them not. [Al-Baqarah: 187] I assure you that among every thousand person has committed Al-Fahisha, 90 of them had no intention to commit ( shameful sins, illegal sexual intercourse) ; but it happened because they come near to it; this closeness lead to ( shameful sins, illegal sexual intercourse), just as a rock; w ell settled on a mountain, if you w anted to push it to the mountain's dow nhill it w on't be settled except in the valley's bottom. if you say: I'm pushing it to keep it aw ay about 100m. from the mountain's top; it's just none sense, as it'll be settled in the valley's bottom. This is Expert's opinion. Thus, it's been mentioned at Gospel revealed upon Jesus- PBUH &upon our prophet that: not the honest w ho doesn't commit a sin, but w ho gets aw ay from a sin's causes. So, Releasing sight is listed under viles company is listed under and come not near to unlaw ful sex and come not near to unlaw ful sex and come not near to unlaw ful sex secret meetings w ith a stranger w oman is listed under reading pornographic stories is listed under and come not near to unlaw ful sex and come not near to unlaw ful sex w atching sexual series.so, any thing you come near to, this desire is very strong as to attract you. A long detailed speech could be listed under and come not near to unlaw ful sex [Al-Isra: 32] w hich means leave a safety margin betw een you and the ( shameful sins, illegal sexual intercourse) ; the ( shameful sins, illegal sexual intercourse) is a sin. But, some sins are not considered to be a scandal if know n

3 over public, rather it seems that w hen ( shameful sins, illegal sexual intercourse) is considered to be scandals w hen publicized. A scandal is w hat you're ashamed of; pornography, moral degeneration, adultery, marriage infidelity, gaining unlaw ful money, theft,.these are Al-Faw ahish., i.e. w hen publicized turns to a scandal. When Allah explained that some shameful sins have a strong attraction, it's your heroism part to get aw ay from it, and to keep a safety margin betw een you and any of those shameful sins. When mentioning orphan's property ( legacy): And come not near to the orphan's property [Al-Isra: 34] Determination is not in accounts and boxes in w hich money is kept, you must not mix your money w ith an orphan's money, but each money aside, and determine w hen you spend some money for your needs record it in your account, and w hen you spend money for the orphan's needs; then from his ow n account and should also be recorded. A Muslim should pay deep attention to any verse contains a forbidden, as w ith this forbidden order there's a thing that you must come not near to it; w hich means that you should keep a safety margin betw een you and any of this shameful sins. To illustrate; I used to describe the dangerous area; labeled by a red line as to be a terrifying deep river shore, the shore is sloping and slippery, and the river has another shore; safety, non slippery and flat, so, if you w alk on the flat dry shore ; you're in the safe side. on the other hands, you're about to fall dow n if you w alk on the slippery, sloping shore. All in all, some places are not suitable for believers, even if the place w as a restaurant or a canteen, it's just that it doesn't f it for believers as it contains nearly naked w omen, songs, trictrac games, suspicious looks, if you go to these places as if you came near to previous mentioned forbiddens ( shameful sins). So the w ord: come not near to has the meaning of keep betw een you and any shameful sin, specially if it's publicized; a safety margin. If you accompany a vile person, or have secret meetings w ith a stranger w oman, then you broke this forbidden area of safe. So, w e didn't find the direction of: don't commit adultery, rather: This is the first meaning. and come not near to unlaw ful sex These are the limits(set) by Allah, so approach them not. Hidden and obvious Al-Fawahish( Shameful sins): come not near to Al-Faw ahish ( shameful sins, illegal sexual intercourse) w hether committed openly Adultery, theft and drinking w ine are openly shameful sins, so if you w ere sharing your table w ith someone w ho drinks w ine, he may offer you some w ine, a sip maybe, just for pleasure and entertainment. Thus, if you come near to w ine you may slip and drink it. So, heroism is to keep aw ay from causes of guilt and sins., rather keep aw ay from causes of shameful sins

4 w hether committed openly of course some openly committed sins is easily distinguished, and w as forbidden in all revealed law s, Adultery, theft, drinking w ine and robbery.etc. are openly shameful sins. But: " or secretly", there're shameful sins is not less dangerous than the openly committed sins, rather it's more dangerous that the openly committed sins, because the openly committed sins are obvious, you can repent from it. But the secretly committed shameful sins ; just as pride, haughtiness, hatred, arrogance,feeling of superiority or that a person even if rightly guided by Allah- feels that he's the only saved and other people are perished, this feeling is described in the Holy Qura'n and by Allah to be a secret shameful sin, and it's much easier to repent from the openly committed shameful sin than from the secret committed sin, because a person commits secret shameful sins thinks of each as to be integrators, or highness. Leave ( O mankind, all kinds of) sin, open and secret [Al-An'am: 120] Some times you meet a rightly guided person, yet he doesn't mix w ith others, in other w ord, he is arrogant and proud, he believes he's the core of the universe and the rest are inferiors. Other times, w hen a person belongs to a certain party, he projects indescribable integration upon his group or party, any person doesn't belong to his group is scorned. Hence, the more you're disciplined w ith Allah, the more humble you become, as Allah- the Al-Mighty says: come not near to Al-Faw ahish ( shameful sins, illegal sexual intercourse) w hether committed openly or secretly The secretly committed shameful sins are more dangerous, great sins of heart ( soul) is greater than great sins of organs, the openly committed shameful sin is committed by organs( limbs) i.e. the eye commits adultery w hich is looking, the ear commits adultery w hich is listening to prohibited items, the hand commits a shameful sin w hich is touching or beating, the feet commits a shameful sin by w alking to forbidden places, the tongue commits a shameful sin by mentioning others' faults and defects., thus, openly shameful sins are committed by limbs, w hile secretly shameful sins are committed by heart. You may meet a gentle humble person, tolerant, fair, easily admits his mistakes, makes apology, asks for forgiveness, he offers his possessions to others, you feel relaxed w ith him. on the other hand their may be an arrogant person w ho believes of himself to be the centre of the universe, he belittles and scorns any other person, he builds his glory over others' w reck; his w ealth over others' poverty, thus w e seek refuge w ith Allah from the secret shameful sins. The person w ho commits secret shameful sins is unbearable. I alw ays used to say: you may be a father, and according to Islamic culture the father is respectable, but the heroism in fatherhood not just to be a respectable father, rather to be loved by your children. the same is said if you're an institution manager, a head of a school, a hospital director, a dean of a colleague a person w ho has a position, an authority to act; yet he may deal w ith others in a fierce, arrogant and haughty w ay, consequently is not liked by others. So, the heroism is to be liked by others not to be strong, hence, among the most precise description Allah has described Himself: Blessed be the Name of Your Lord (Allah), the Ow ner of Majesty and Honor [Ar-Rahman: 78] As much as He is Generous, He is Majestic, and this is the heroism to be liked as much as to be needed, thus: come not near to Al-Faw ahish ( shameful sins, illegal sexual intercourse) w hether committed openly or secretly

5 People scandals are either sexual or financial: Honestly: all the scandals of people on earth from the time of Adam till the Resurrection Day is the result of one of tw o mistakes: a w rong in earning money as theft, robbery, a faked bill or an unreal amount of money. The other mistake is a sexual scandal, so either a financial or a sexual scandal ; and the heroism of a believer to close the door of any of those mistakes. thus it's very obvious in his considerations. The considerations of every person cause him a great argument. You should make your considerations clear Every thing must be clear: Our prophet-pbuh- the master of all creatures; and Allah's beloved, w ho's above suspicions,yet it w as narrated by Bukhari & Muslim, reported by Safeyah bent Huyay that (( One night w hen the prophet-pbuh- w as devoted isolated in the mosque for w orshipping- I paid a visit to him, after talking to him I intended to leave, so, he came w ith me, w hile he w as w alking me home ; her dw elling w as at Osama bin Zaid house, tw o Ansari men passed by, w hen they saw the prophet-pbuh- they hastened. So, the holy prophet PBUH- said: w ait, she's safeyah bent Huyay. They responded: Glory to Allah O Allah's apostle!! He told them: the Devil runs in the Human beings just as the blood runs in the vessel; and I feared that the Devil may toss badness in your hearts.)) [ narrated by: Bukhari & Muslim] So, you should make your things clear, for example w rite the contract and certify it, record and certify the bill, don't put your self under the mercy of oath. There're now thousands of cases in courts w ithout a stake nor a receipt or w itnesses. If you lent a person, w hose commitment to religion is not strict; a great amount of money; if he sw ear that he didn't take anything from you, then it's- according to the judge- the definite oath. Hence you totally lost your right, thus you should alw ays take a receipt in order to be in the safe side. An illustrating example: the prophet's companion ; Mua'w eyah bin Abi Sufian asked once the greatest Arabic resourceful ; Umr bin Al-A's: w hat is the limit of your cunning? Umr replied: I sw ear Allah that I never made an entrance, how ever I can manage an exit of it. Mua'w eyah replied: you're not a resourceful then. For me, I never made an entrance I needed to made an exit of it. That's the heroism, to have accurate authentic considerations, not to have unclear accounts for instance a great amount of money is classified under the w ord " miscellany", how w ould the miscellany be a great amount of money? Isn't there a receipt? I advice all of you to verify any financial or business relations. An illustrating story: w hen the private learning w as decading- in the past- the private schools' prices decreased; a school w as sold in a very cheap price, a simple amount, tw o persons shares in purchasing it, each one paid an equal little amount of money, and they started their business. After a month or tw o the first one sent the other a few amount of money he w as pleased for it, then an other amount, then a third amount ; the three sent amounts equals his big ( share in school). afterw ards he didn't receive any further amount of money, and the private learning market prospered again and their school valued a great amount of money; then the second person asked his partner about his share in benefit, he ( the first one) replied: I borrow ed that amount from you and I paid it back ; w hile they w ere already partners, yet w ithout a document nor a contract to prove their partnership. Thus the precise point is: come not near to Al-Faw ahish ( shameful sins, illegal sexual intercourse) w hether committed

6 openly or secretly committed secretly: is haughtiness, arrogance, feeling superiority, that you don't make mistakes; but others make, w hoever expresses his disappointment you belittle him. and kill not any one whom Allah has forbidden, except for a just cause ( according to Islamic Law): and kill not any one w hom Allah has forbidden, except for a just cause ( according to Islamic Law ). It w as reported Ibn Omar may Allah be pleased w ith him that the prophet PBUH- said: A believer still has a space in his religion unless he kills according to an unjust cause. [ Narrated: Al-Bukhary] The difference between killing and death: There's a difference betw een killing and death: For instance if you smash the electricity lamp, it turns off; because w hen you smash it you ruined the electrical features as you cut the delicate conductive cable, it's no longer valid to receive electricity this is killing, w hile death is the electricity cut, that's w hy: A believer still has a space in his religion unless he kills according to an unjust cause. The danger of killing and its bad end: And you'll know clearly that every drop of blood over this earth,from Adam till the Resurrection day is some one's burden.a person may bombed a house w here they celebrate a w edding, consequently 125 civilians,have no relation to events died; this w ho did bomb them made a great mistake, yet he might say as w ell: from this place they w ere shooting, so w e bombed it, he covered him self in the press, but Allah w ill settle an account w ith him. the same is said w hen you destruct a house over its inhabitants and they died, w ho made order for bombing w ill bear the burden of every died person. If only w e get through the absol ute justice of Allah, w e'll tremble before smashing an ant; not before killing a human. It w as reported Abu- Hurairah; that the holy prophet- PBUH- said: ((a w oman entered the Hell fire because of a cat, she tied it, neither feed it nor release it to fetch its food, till the cat died of starvation.)) [ narrated Ahmad, Bukhary, Muslim & Ibn Majah] I can't even imagine a person orders to kill innocent civilians, w ho didn't commit any fault; how could he sleep at night? But surely, those people feelings have changed and their nature w as hushed up. and kill not any one the w ord any one means the soul is absolute, some creatures you're not allow ed to kill, others, you are

7 permitted to kill just like the snake, scorpion, only if it gets out of its hiding place, as its place is under the earth and it each has a very accurate mission there; of course talking about animals mission on earth is a long talk indeed, unless these animals there w ouldn't have been planting, as soil ventilation is essential in planting, the mission of such creatures is to dig channels in the soil to cause its ventilation, so you're not permitted to kill such creatures w ithin its natural place, but if it gets out side its place, w hich is permitted by Allah for it, it's a sin committed by such a creature. Thus, killing is not connected only to human, it's generalize upon every creature w hich you're not allow ed to kill, and kill not any one w hom Allah has forbidden, except for a just cause ( according to Islamic Law ). What is meant by " except for a just cause"? w hat is the just cause? The killer is to be killed, w ho shall bear the blood of a killed person according to Islamic Law? Allah- the All-Mighty w ill do so. Thus, w hen the killer is killed according to Islamic Law w ho shall bear his blood? Allah - the All-Mighty, so the Hadeeth: A believer still has a space in his religion unless he kills according to an unjust cause. come not near to Al-Faw ahish ( shameful sins, illegal sexual intercourse) w hether committed openly or secretly Watch over your heart: The secretly or openly matter is very important, the inside you is very dangerous, Omar, the 2nd. Khalifahmay Allah be pleased w ith him- said: w atch over your heart. a person may look very great, terrific, good talker, hand some and sociable, but if his inside w as full of hatred, conspiring, deception, duality and using various standards; he then has secret shameful sins, as toughness is among the secret shameful great sins, and the toughest hearts are the farthest from Allah. And the farthest person from Allah is the tough hearted one. [ narrated Termethy. Reported Ibn Omar] Toughness is the companion of disconnecting to Allah, w hile mercy companions connecting to Allah. there's a verse I consider to be a mathematical formula: And by the mercy of Allah, you dealt w ith them gently. [Al-Imran:159] Which means O Mohammed because of your connection to Allah, We-Allah- bestow you a mercy settled in your heart, this mercy reflects your gentleness, w hich cause people gathering around you, that's the formula: connection, implies to mercy, gentleness, then gathering, w hereas if you w ere disconnected to Us- Allah- your heart w ill be full of toughness, implies coarse, thus people turn aw ay ( leave) you. And by the mercy of Allah, you dealt w ith them gently And if had you been severe and harshhearted, they w ould have broken aw ay from about you; so pass over ( their faults), and ask (Allah's) Forgiveness for them ; and consult them in the affairs. [Al-Imran:159] Connection to Allah and harshness opposes, doesn't meet:

8 Some times you find tw o meters in a car one for velocity and the other for engine's rotations, nearly alw ays both meters w ork together; if the car is stopped and you separated the engine from the tires then you step on the fuel pedal, the meter of the engine w orks alone, other w ise they w ork together. What I w ant to illustrate is that if the belief has a meter and there's another meter for mercy then, they'll w ork together. I can never believe that there's an existence of a connected person to Allah; yet he's harshhearted, or doesn't have mercy. He who has no mercy towards other shall not get it: The holy prophet-pbuh- sent his servant for a certain aim, the servant delayed, and the holy prophet- being a human being- w as very angry, w hen the servant came back he told him: (( If not for the penalty I w ould hurt you using this sew ak)) Sew ak: is a tree branch its diameter doesn't exceed 1cm. is used as a tooth brush- He- PBUH- w as holding sew ak: If not for the penalty I w ould hurt you using this sew ak [Narrated Ibn Sa'd Reported Um Salamah] he has mercy in his heart, those w hom he ordered his companions to kill after the victory of Makkah., he forgave most of them, just because they begged him, and asked for his forgiveness, the believer's sign is mercy. ((He w ho has no mercy tow ards others, shall not get it)) Allah has said in the holy hadeeth- narrated by the prophet -PBUH: (( If you hope for My mercy, then have mercy upon my creatures.)) [Narrated Bukhari & Muslim] [Narrated Abu-Shaikh & Dailami, reported Abu-Baker] (( Show m ercy upon earthly creatures, consequently Allah w ill have m ercy upon you.)) [Narrated Ahmad, Abu-Dawood, Termethy & Hakem, reported Ibn-Omar] What shall I tell you to illustrate this point? Well, you may compel a w oman to teach at a school w ith a monthly salary equals 4000 Lira; a very little amount of money from 6a.m until lately in the after noon, yet she accepts, because she has no choice ; as she needs the job and she needs money, but of course this isn't her right. Her employer didn't have mercy upon her. How could such an employer w oman fulfill her monthly expenses, containing: transportations, electricity consumption, medical cure.etc. yet, after all of this unjust the employer is proud that he pays low salaries for his employees; w ho accept such w ages out of unemployment and their need. Show m ercy upon earthly creatures, consequently Allah w ill have m ercy upon you. You are bestowed your livelihood because of your weak ones:

9 As long as w e're talking about this subject, w e should answ er this inquiry: w hat are w e looking forw ard to having? Till w e become victorious over those haughty proud enemies, w ho have various techniques of humiliation the Palestinians, they destructed the electricity generators in Gaza, this destruction's cost is 150 million US, can you imagine a million person in Gaza w ith no electricity, nor w ater nor fuel; hence all the preserved food w as spoilt, their w orks broke dow n, and all their activities w ere compulsory stopped; the industries, they're already poor, nevertheless they w ere destr ucted, isn't that a severs cruelty? Show m ercy upon earthly creatures, consequently Allah w ill have m ercy upon you. Thus, the holy prophet PBUH-said- pay attention now! " (( You are bestow ed your livelihood because of your w eak ones)) [Narrated Bukhari& Hafez; Abu-Bakr Burqani, reported Mus'ab reported his father] How? It's mentioned in the previous hadeeth that w e're bestow ed victory over our strong haughty enemies ; w ho o wn plenty of recent, lethal weapons. (( You are bestow ed your livelihood because of your w eak ones)) When w e'll be able to gain victory over such enemies? When w e help the w eak, feed him if he is hungry, clothe him w hen he's naked, cure him w hen he is patient, give him a shelter if he is homeless, help him if he is oppressed, educate him if he if ignorant.. so, if you help a w eaker person; and you have the ability to leave his help, or to smash him, yet he can't criticize you. Only w hen you help such a person Allah w ill rew ard you by granting you victory over a stronger enemy, but I sw ear as long as there are oppression in the community, a husband oppressed his w ife in front of her children, or humiliate and beat her brutally, if there's an oppressed w orker, human employee. These w eak people once you help them, the community in strongly united, then is granted victory. Among the meaning of killing: driving people away from their religion: So, respectable brothers " and kill not any one w hom Allah has forbidden, except for a just cause ( according to Islamic Law ). " In other verse of the Holy Qura'n, Allah's said: And Al-Fitnah* is w orse than killing means: polytheism So if you drove aw ay a believer youth from his religion using a film for instance, if you drove aw ay a [Al-Baqarah: 191]

10 w hole com m unity * And Al-Fitnah* is w orse than killing The buried alive female w hen asked ( in the Resurrection Day): and w hen the female ( infant) buried alive ( as the Pagan Arabs used to do) is questioned. For w hat sin w as she killed? [At-Takwir:8-9] A young dead girl is in the Heaven, but killing her is such a great oppression, but if you give your daughter the complete freedom to w ear w hat she w ants, and she w as the reason (of w atching sin) for youth in the street, w hile you -her father- is used to pray continually in the mosque, yet you think you should not push hard over her and let her live her life freely, you're causing her driving aw ay from Islam, which is And Al-Fitnah* is w orse than killing As if he buried her alive she'll go to heaven, but w hen you full liberate her to the limit that she is corrupted and causes corruption to others; she'll go to Hell fire. Thus it w as mentioned that a spoilt girl by her father w ould stand in the Resurrection Day in front of Allah saying: O my lord, I w on't go to hell until my father goes before I do." On the contrary, there're many pure, putting veil believer girls, learners of the Holy Qura'n by heart ; yet their father prevents them from marriage, w hich cause him a great sin. " Except for a just cause ( according to Islamic Law). ": and kill not any one w hom Allah has forbidden, except for a just cause(according to Islamic Law ). Except for a just cause: is that a murderer is to be killed, but in the just cause Allah's permitted sheep meat. But, how w ould you kill it for a just cause? A person slaughtered a goat in front of its sister, w hile the holy prophet w as w atching, instantly he became very angry and told him: w hy didn't you hide it from its sister? Do you w ant to kill the other tw ice? (( and w hen you slaughter, then proficiently; and sharpen your razor and relieve your carcass.)) [Narrated Muslim: reported Abi Ya'la Shadad bin Aws] and kill not any one w hom Allah has forbidden, except for a just cause (according to Islamic Law ). A Muslim is obliged to inquire for permitted and forbidden things: A believer should inquire about permitted and forbidden things, then stick to the permitted things ; as they cause your nearness to Allah, and on the contrary, keep aw ay from the forbidden things, as they blocked you aw ay from Allah.

11 You recognize Allah from the universe, and w orship Him by religion, but w e Muslims- have a problem that most of us imagine that Islam is limited in performing prayers, fasting and giving alms( Zakat) and performing pilgrimage, so he only stick to performance of the previous duties, yet he is totally remote from Islam. We should believe that Islam isn't just limited to these duties, it has 500 thousand item begins from the intimate relation in the bed (betw een a husband and his w ife), gaining your money, dealing w ith others, your loyalty to Muslims and Islam, your utility to Muslims till the international relations. Religion does exist in all aspects of life: You may ow n infant food industry, if you purchase expired ingredients in a low er price and use it in your industry to product infant foods, then gain legendary profits; do you think that you'll not hold responsibility before Allah! No w ay. So religion is not just restricted to mosques, you go to mosque to acquire Allah's directions for your life. To illustrate this thing: a doctor may ask a patient to have 8 kinds of blood analysis, yet the patient needs only one, and the doctor shares half the profit w ith the blood lab. ow ner, do you think that he'll get aw ay w ith this sin w ithout holding responsibility before Allah? A law yer may convince a client that his case is very easy, and that you can delay claims for 8 yrs. at the end of the case the judge aligned to his opponent, w hat w ould you do to him, w ell you may tell him: you didn't pay much. Do you think that he'll get aw ay w ith this sin w ithout holding responsibility before Allah? A teacher may put a test beyond students' abilities, consequently they failed, so he suggests to give them private lessons. do you think that he'll get aw ay w ith this sin w ithout holding responsibility before Allah? A patient may visit a doctor at a public hospital, w here the medicine is free of charge, but the doctor told him: you need another kind of medicine, you must come to my clinic, although the patient is very poor. A doctor may smuggle a medicine to an adjacent country to cost 300 lira w here its real cost is 13 lira, then he'll get aw ay w ith this sin w ithout holding responsibility before Allah? So the religion exists at the clinic, the school, the grocery, in planting; for instants a peasant can use a cancer causing hormone in order to get fast grow th and nice color for the crops, w ould he get aw ay w ith this sin w ithout holding responsibility before Allah? A hepatitis patient; w ho is restaurant w orker, could cause death or disease transferring to the customers if he w ere not careful w ith hygienic standards, w ould he get aw ay w ith this sin w ithout holding responsibility before Allah? So there're plenty of examples to illustrate this article. But w hat w e should know that life is only organized by belief, and our countless problems are due to our w eak feeling of Allah's monitoring for us. To sum up, religion does exist in your daily life entirely, your job, house, your children raising, your truth in dealing w hen you follow the straightforw ard path, w hich the holy prophet-pbuhsummarized by one w ord: (( let your food be good.)) [Narrated Tabarani: reported Ibn Abbas] Do you put much ghee or meat in your food, of course no. so stick to permitted gained earnings according to Islamic Law - and because you stick to straightforw ard dealing, thus the good earnings w hen is used to buy food, it'll be good. To illustrate this fact, I visited a friend's father several years ago ; w ho is dead now, he w as 96 years old, he literally told me: I carried out complete blood and urine counts, they w ere all in the average natural level in the age of 96!- he continued: I never eat a forbidden penny during my w hole life time, and never had I dealt w ith any prohibited thing. So, you should strict to straightforw ard path, and deal honestly w ith others and be sure that Allah w ill never let you dow n, He'll bestow your earning and you'll be comfortable. Hence,

12 come not near to Al-Faw ahish ( shameful sins, illegal sexual intercourse) w hether committed openly or secretly; and kill not any one w hom Allah has forbidden, except for a just cause ( according to Islamic Law ). This He has commanded you that you may understand. One might ask w hy Allah- the Al-Mighty hasn't said these instead of this, as there is more than one direction w as mentioned in this verse, because Allah's curriculum is one. And the w ord that you m ay understand. Means using your mind, and Allah's curriculum is 100 identical w ith human intellect. The curriculum is Allah's revelation and w e w ere bestow ed the mind as a scale, the identification betw een mind and transmitted revelation is definite.
