A TRIAL FOR PROPHET IBRAHIM

A TRIAL FOR PROPHET IBRAHIM (ABRAHAM)


                     
                                

Tomb of Prophet Ibrahim - in Kudus,Palestine


In a trial, Allah granted Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) -alaihissalam- a huge flock of sheep. Allah said to Archengel (leader of angels) Jibril -alaihissalam- : "Go to Ibrahim and see his generosity!"

The Archangel Jibril -alaihissalam- came to him "with a man appearance" and asked:

-Whose flock is this? Can you sell me one of them?

Ibrahim (a.s) answered:

-The flock belongs to my Lord. It has been given to me as a trust. If you mention His name (Allah), you can take one third of it; but if you mention His name three times, you can take all of it!

The Archengel Jibril (a.s) said:

- Glorified and beyond all shortcomings is our Lord, the Lord of all angels and of all souls.

Ibrahim (a.s) responded:

- Take the entire flock with you and go.

The Archangel Jibril (a.s) said in return:

- I am not a man, I am an angel. So I cannot take them.

Ibrahim (a.s) said:

- If you are an angel, I am the Khalil (i.e the intimate friend of Allah, choice man), so I cannot take back what I have given for His sake.

Ibrahim (a.s) sold the entire flock and spent the earnings in the path of Allah as charity.  

Ibrahim alaihissalam was put through difficult trials in which he was tested with his life, his property, and his children. In each case, he maintained his loyalty and his submission to his Lord. Thus, he rose to the zenith of service to Allah. He abandoned form and climbed to the level of being Khalilullah, the intimate friend of Allah.

P.S. (a.s) : alaihissalam (salutation for him)

5 COİNS WHICH CHANGE 250 MILLION PEOPLE !

5 COİNS WHICH CHANGE 250 MILLION PEOPLE !

         Indonesia

  

He was a quiet merchant. One day, he loaded his fabric goods to a ship and moved to Indonesia. He ran his business there. The fabric goods he was selling, was high quality stuff, everyone was looking for.  He was also a contented man; he thought his profit should not necessarily be high, but should be halal.

One day he was late to his business. The worker had made quite some money at his absense. He was curious and asked:

-What kind of fabric did you sell?
-These ones.
-"How come?" he said with surprise. "How can you sell the fabric prized for 5 coins for 10? This is not fair! If you see the customer again can you recognize him?" 

The worker left and brought the customer back. The owner presented the extra money back to the customer and asked for his pardon. The customer was surprised. Quickly the story spread around and before long the king heard of it as well. Finally, the King summoned the merchant to his palace and asked:

-"We have neither heard nor seen anything like this! What is the origin of your kind manner?"
 
-"I am a muslim." the merchant said. "Islam rules this way. I would have mistakenly seized his right. I only fixed that mistake."

King started questions like "What is Islam, what is muslimhood?". The merchant responded his questions one by one. This was the first time the King was hearing about this religion. Before long he converted to Islam. Later on the public became muslim as well. The mystery behind Indonesia's becoming muslim is this fabric goods worth 5 coins!

If you research the Indonesia's conversion to Islam, you will most likely come across this story.
