The Holy Quran – The Word of God (Allah) Revealed to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)

The Holy Quran is the sacred book of the Muslims, it is the word of Allah revealed to the prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) through the angel Jibril. This revelation has lasted 23 years.

The Holy Quran is the heart of Islam, it includes all the teachings and precepts of the religion, for every Muslim, it’s the divine symbol of faith. The Holy Book is also considered a miracle in itself because of its content and scope, which is extended to all possible areas and continues to fascinate scientists for its extraordinary advance over time.

Quran is the best source of inspiration and motivation for all Muslims. We, as a Muslim to be successful in both worlds, should learn and follow Quran Kareem. The following Hadith of Prophet Mohammad (S.A.W.) shows the importance about learning Quran:

Uthman bin Affan (R.A.) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (S.A.W.) said, “The best amongst you is the one who learns the Qur’an and teaches it.” (Sahih al-Bukhari : 5027)

Surah Al Fatiha with Transliteration, English, Urdu Translation | Sura Fatiha | سُورَةُ الْفَاتِحَةِ

Therefore in the light of this Hadith, the best people in the world are not those who have high degrees and positions, nor are those who possess excessive wealth. But the best person on the side of Allah is the person who wants to learn the Holy Quran and teach it to others.

The Quran has 114 chapters called Suras. The first one is called Al Fatiha (the opening). Each sura is composed of phrases or verses called “ayat”. The chapters or surahs are of unequal length; the shortest surah Al-Kawthar has only three verses while the longest sura is the Al Baqara, which has 286 ayas.

A part of the Quran was revealed to the Prophet (peace be upon him) in the city of Mecca and the other in the city of Medina, that is why we find a classification of the surahs in the Quran by Makiya and Madaniya, in fact by place of revelation.

May Allah bless all Muslims with strong Faith, Purity of heart, good manners, good deeds and understanding the true meaning of all teaching of Quran and Hadiths.

6 Kalimas of Islam – English Translation

The 6 Kalimas of Islam (six statements of Faith) are basic Islamic declarations of Islam that are recited by Muslims as a form of worship and as a means of affirming their beliefs. These 6 Kalimas encompass various aspects of Islam and serve as concise statements of faith. Here are the 6 Kalimas:

First Kalima Tayyab:

Laaa Ilaaha Illa-llaahu Muhammadur-Rasoolu-llaah

There is none worthy of worship except Allah and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.

Second Kalima Shahada:

Ash-hadu Al-laaa Ilaaha Illa-llaahu Wahdahoo Laa Shareeka Lahoo Wa-Ash-hadu Anna Muhammadan ‘Abduhoo Wa Rasooluhu.

I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, the One alone, without a partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger.

Third Kalima Tamjeed:

Subhaana-llaahi Walhamdu Lillaahi Walaaa Ilaaha Illa-llaahu Wallaahu Akbar. Walaa Hawla Walaa Quwwata Illaa Billaahi-l ‘Aliyyil ‘Azeem.

Glory be to Allah and all praise be to Allah, there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and Allah is the Greatest. There is no might or power except from Allah, the Exalted, the Great One.

Fourth Kalima Touheed:

Laaa Ilaaha Illa-llaahu Wahdahoo Laa Shareeka-lahoo Lahu-l Mulku Walahu-l Hamdu Yuhyee Wayumeetu Wahuwa Hayyu-l Laa Yamootu Abadan Abada. Dhu-l Jalaali Wal Ikraam. Biyadihil Khair. Wahuwa Alaa Kulli Shai-’in Qadeer.

There is none worthy of worship except Allah. He is alone and has no partner. To Him belongs the Kingdom and for Him is all praise. He gives life and causes death. In His hand is all good and He has power over everything.

Fifth Kalima Astaghfar:

Astaghfiru-llaaha Rabbi Min Kulli Dhambin Adhnabtuhoo ‘Amadan Aw Khata-an Sirran Aw ‘Alaaniyata-wn Wa-atoobu Ilaihi Min-adh Dhambi-l Ladhee A’lamu Wamina-dh Dhambi-l Ladhi Laaa A’lamu Innaka Anta ‘Allaamu-l Ghuyoobi Wasattaaru-l ‘Uyoobi Wa Ghaffaaru-dh Dhunubi Walaa Hawla Walaa Quwwata Illaa Billaahi-l ‘Aliyyil ‘Azeem.

I seek forgiveness from Allah, who is my Creator and Cheriser, from every sin I committed knowingly or unknowingly, secretly or openly. I also seek His forgiveness for all sins which I am aware of or am not aware of. Certainly, You (O Allah!), are the Knower of the hidden and the Concealer of mistakes and the Forgiver of sins. And there is no power and no strength except from Allah, the Most High, the Most Great.

Sixth Kalima Radd-e-Kufar:

Allaa-humma Inneee A’udhu-bika Min An Ushrika Bika Shay-awn Wa-ana A’lamu Bihee Wa- astaghfiruka Limaa Laaa A’lamu Bihee Tubtu ‘Anhu Wata-barraatu Mina-l Kufri Wash-shirki Wal-kidhbi Wal-gheebati Wal-bid’ati Wan-nameemati Wal-fawahishi Wal-buhtaani Wal-m’aasi Kulli-haa Wa-Aslamtu Wa-aqoolu Laaa Ilaaha Illa-llaahu Muhammadu-r Rasoolu-llah.

O Allah! I seek refuge in You from that I should ascribe any partner with You knowingly. I seek Your forgiveness for the sin of which I have no knowledge. I repent from it. And becoming disgusted of disbelief and idolatry, lying and backbiting, innovation and slander, lewdness and abomination, and all other acts of disobedience, I submit to Your will. I believe and I declare that there is none worthy of worship except Allah and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.
