Reading Heavily from an Unwritten Book of Faith Logic.

Have you noticed that we are reading heavily from an unwritten Book of Faith Logic? Not being corrected and aligning to the Kalimat of Allah (swt) is a loss to one's own self. 3 examples of reading heavily from an unwritten Book of Faith Logic (I'll add more as I remember Insha Allah.):

1. Don't tell or suggest to the poor to continue to be poor. But suggest to the rich the virtues of giving to the poor. Do we go to the poor and tell them to remain poor? This, the former, is what all of the major Prophets of God (epbut) have done and encouraged.

2. You cannot follow Nabi Muhammad (epbuh) into Heaven if you do not follow Nabi Muhammad (saws).

You cannot follow Nabi Isa Al Masihu ibn Maryam (epbuh) into Heaven if you do not follow Nabi Isa (as).

You cannot follow Anbiya Musa Wa Harun (epbut) into Heaven if you do not follow Anbiya Musa Wa Harun (as).

Following any of the Anbiya is predicated on, at the human pace, Aligning oneself to the Corrections in the Holy Words of God's Covenant. This was observed because there are the type that will follow you even to the Gates of Heaven but have no interest or desire in the Orders, Ordinances, Laws, Boundaries or Ancient Boundary Markers of one or another of those 3 Faith Groups. But are only thinking about their own agenda to mine or derive from the subjects or worshippers for the spirit rather than God and His Holy Spirit as the only Sources of the Spirit.

3. Unjustly or Injustice (Zalim) in assigning or cursing another innocent Muslim with a Shaitan via a controversial Hadith is a "Departure from the Oath of Service". The purpose of the Service to Allah is to encourage and help the listener, sitting in the Congregational Service of Jumuah Salaat, to place and keep Allah (swt) in their lives and homes. Not Shaitan. We are only advised to warn against Shaitan (Aoudhubillahi). Not empower, strengthen, ransom other believers to it, nor give a miltitude of licenses to it. But rather you've to restrict, banish, boycott, warn (and in some cases need to bind) and ostracize the Hell on the Shaitan. Aoudhubillahi minal shaitanir rajeem.

The Quran did not say that future generations of believers should ask for Maidah on Earth. Rather it was a Solemn Festival and a Sign.

May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon Nabi Muhammad (epbuh). Ameen.

I was thinking about the Maidah (Passover, Feast from Heaven, Last Supper) that Al Hawariyun (the Disciples) asked the Al Masihu ibn Maryam (epbut) to ask Allah (swt) to send down to them.
I was asking myself what was the reason that they gave the Messiah for making this request. (I'll add my previous 2 blog post reflections on Maidah) at the bottom of this post.
The reasons that they gave the Messiah were 4:
"[5:113]
They said: "We only wish to eat thereof and satisfy our hearts, and to know that thou hast indeed told us the truth; and that we ourselves may be witnesses to the miracle.""
1. We only wish to eat thereof, and
2. Satisfy our hearts, and
3. To know that thou hast indeed told us the Truth, and
4. That we ourselves may be witnesses to the Miracle.

No other Scriptures (in the Kitab (Bible)) informs us of these 4 things. The Quran is very important. Current translations from NLT do not contain the words "Last Supper" nor "Feast from Heaven". So, the concept that it actually came from Heaven may be foreign to some readers of the Kitab. I did not check other translations.

So, I know you are probably thinking, "Yes, brother we already read this information so what is your point?" Ok my point is that in that list of 4 things that Al Hawariyun gave the Nabi Isa (as) for asking for the Feast from Heaven was not mentioned a 5th, "That future generations of believers will also ask for the Maidah from Jannah on a daily basis."

When we deal and communicate with each other in Islam we have to be careful of implying that the fellow believer should virtually request the Maidah from Jannah on a daily basis. Yes, to say to your brother, to quote a previous point, "[We sometimes get responses like, "When you ask, then ask Allah (swt) for what you need." This is true. Or we might get, "Be patient brother. Allah is with those who are patient." This is true. We'll also get, "You are too worried about the Dunya brother and not the Deen and the Akhira. Renounce the Dunya dear brother." It is true that this can be a blindspot in our thinking as humans on Earth.]"
But the Quran did not say that future generations of believers should ask for Maidah on Earth or "a bag of money from Heaven to fall out of the sky" as I mentioned previously along that quote above. So that combined with Asceticism (rigorous self-denial to obtain a higher spirituality) combined with making prayers like a Maidah from Heaven has to manifest on a daily basis can be a bit "isolating" as a concept. We have to work, study, help, store, etc. Not ask for a Maidah every day and we can't subconsciously tell others to do that. We should direct others to rely more on duas but also make plans to help themselves to improve themselves. This is balanced, reasonable, realistic, logical, and rational. Also, many people say things like, "It doesn't get any better than this." "This is Heaven on Earth.", etc. Earth is Earth. Heaven is Heaven. What Allah gives us of a semblance of Jannah on Earth is just a semblance not the actual thing.

Jazakum Allah Khayran. Please see these other related blog posts:

The Holy Quran on "Command" paired with Nabi Muhammed on "Usurping land".

Bismi Allahi Al Rahmani Al Raheemi
ASA WR WB to believing Muslim friends:

Command is best paired with Justice. Command is not best paired with Injustice.
Allah (swt) renders a Judgment against Zalimun when he says in Ayat 2:124,
"And remember that Abraham was tried by his Lord with certain commands, which he fulfilled: He said: "I will make thee an Imam to the Nations." He pleaded: "And also (Imams) from my offspring!" He answered: "But My Promise is not within the reach of Zalimun (evil-doers)."  [In stripping them of leadership (Imamat) Allah is also stripping Zalimun of command (Amarat). It seems to give no power to leadership or command being used for injustice]

and 2:258,
"Hast thou not Turned thy vision to one who disputed with Abraham About his Lord, because Allah had granted him power? Abraham said: "My Lord is He Who Giveth life and death." He said: "I give life and death". Said Abraham: "But it is Allah that causeth the sun to rise from the east: Do thou then cause him to rise from the West." Thus was he confounded who (in arrogance) rejected faith. Nor doth Allah Give guidance to Zalimun (a people unjust)."
[Allah strips Zalimun of guidance.]

and 3:57,
"As to those who believe and work righteousness, Allah will pay them (in full) their reward; but Allah loveth not Zalimun (those who do wrong)."
[He strips Zalimun of love from Himself (swt)]

Command in the Injeel is explained in the example of the Mulberry Tree. So if someone uses Command, to move a tree of Injustice in the Spirit to increase Injustice, then that is what Allah (swt) wants to prevent from happening.
at Luke 17:6 New International Version,
"He replied, "If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, 'Be uprooted and planted in the sea,' and it will obey you."

So if Command has been lost it would either be because of incompetence, being a Zalimun or being usurped (which may sometimes include intentionally causing incompetency or diminished health (mental, psych, emotional, etc. via curses, spells, etc.). Also the Messiah (epbuh) does make it possible for Command to be lost for holding a grudge. Command is not something that is obvioulsy always used for a crowd of people, it may be necessary to, with the Spirit, move a tree or an injustice in your life, and if someone has stolen it from a person of faith and they can no longer Command an Injustice to move, then that is a hellish situation

Nabi Muhammed (saws) said that if the land (assets, property, etc.) of someone is unjustly usurped then the ones that took it will on the Day of Judgement have that which they unjustly usurped encircled around their necks and be plummeted down the 7 Earths. We understand that the Holy Quran did not mention 7 Earths, however it did mention 7 Zones of the Earth. "33. O ye assembly of Jinns and men! If it be ye can pass beyond the zones of the heavens and the earth, pass ye! Not without authority shall ye be able to pass!" So there are 7 Gates of Heaven; 7 Zones of the Earth and 7 Gates of Hellfire. Father Adam and Mother Eve (as) were expelled from the 7 Gates of Heaven. They lost clearances to all 7 Gates and were made to descend to the 1st Zone of the Earth closest to the Lowest Heaven or Gate 1. May consider it Zone 7 of the Earth that they descended to, but either way the Zone that is closest to the Lowest Heaven.

So the question then becomes if the ones who unjustly usurp the property of others of Faith in Al-Islam are on the Day of Judgement made to have those things encircled around their necks and are plummeted down 7 Zones, or they receive 7 Expulsions, then what if the usurption in a case takes place in Zone 4 of the Earth? Then 7 Expulsions would mean they would land in the 4th Gate of Hellfire.
