Alaikoam Salam

Well look at it this way Allah had His Angels bow down to Us so He must have meant for Us to be good people because no Angel would Bow to an evil person would they unless forced of course.

015.026
YUSUFALI: We created man from sounding clay, from mud moulded into shape;
PICKTHAL: Verily We created man of potter's clay of black mud altered,
SHAKIR: And certainly We created man of clay that gives forth sound, of black mud fashioned in shape.

015.027
YUSUFALI: And the Jinn race, We had created before, from the fire of a scorching wind.
PICKTHAL: And the jinn did We create aforetime of essential fire.
SHAKIR: And the jinn We created before, of intensely hot fire.

015.028
YUSUFALI: Behold! thy Lord said to the angels: "I am about to create man, from sounding clay from mud moulded into shape;
PICKTHAL: And (remember) when thy Lord said unto the angels: Lo! I am creating a mortal out of potter's clay of black mud altered,
SHAKIR: And when your Lord said to the angels: Surely I am going to create a mortal of the essence of black mud fashioned in shape.

015.029
YUSUFALI: "When I have fashioned him (in due proportion) and breathed into him of My spirit, fall ye down in obeisance unto him."
PICKTHAL: So, when I have made him and have breathed into him of My Spirit, do ye fall down, prostrating yourselves unto him.
SHAKIR: So when I have made him complete and breathed into him of My spirit, fall down making obeisance to him.

015.030
YUSUFALI: So the angels prostrated themselves, all of them together:
PICKTHAL: So the angels fell prostrate, all of them together
SHAKIR: So the angels made obeisance, all of them together,

 

007.011
YUSUFALI: It is We Who created you and gave you shape; then We bade the angels prostrate to Adam, and they prostrate; not so Iblis; He refused to be of those who prostrate.

 

002.129
YUSUFALI: "Our Lord! send amongst them a Messenger of their own, who shall rehearse Thy Signs to them and instruct them in scripture and wisdom, and sanctify them: For Thou art the Exalted in Might, the Wise."

******

Basically Brother Allah created us all to be His Messengers and the health and well being of all and the environment must be our focus and goal.

This challenge has ten Billion plus stories and still counting of everyones struggles and challenges and in struggling together for the common good and well being will be a Great wonder and a Great series of stories indeed.

Inshallah may you understand the significance of this and the importance of everyones story being a story of over coming challenges in a positive, productive and caring manner that empowers everyone to be their best and set aside differences and nmake that personal sacride journey to self and see where they/we need guidance, education, training, counseling or consulting on any issues we may be faced with so as a community, family approach to healing one another and Nations and the World.

A child of any age deserves respect and caring and has needs and desires that can be met in dignified ways that make their light bright instead of shadowed with anger, hate and revenge.

Revenge is just a poor excuse not to remained focused on working on the positive and making this positive movement grow and flourish so in time when ever anyone has a challenge there are resources availble to resolve the challenge before crisis happens.

I believe in Mankinds ability to Arise to the Call whether you call it Islam or Life it does not matter however everyone needs to be called again to the table and be debriefed on their challenges and strategies for coping and meeting their challenges given and support staff or teams set in place so if they feel weak they have a friend or someone they can call.

This is the day Brother, this is the day....

Crisis can be averted around the world saving lives, families, communities, Nations and the World including the environment.

I am just doing my share with what I am able, may each of us remain positive and optomistic for a brighter future and a People who are Peaceful, Loving, Caring, Generous and Forgiving and A World where there is enough for all with respect to limits and boundaries.

Annie, again I must say that your comments concerning mankind are indeed inspiring but again let me say that nothing which you've posted is consistent with your premise on saying that all of God's creation are prophet's messengers. Now concering the creation of mankind I believe that the verses imply the significance of mankind yes, but the obsience of the Angels has nothing to do with the ethical nature of mankind it had something to do with the obedience of Angels.

Adam which the Qur'an exclaims is the first man Angels bowed before in obedience to God. This allegorical part of the Qur'an has nothing to do with what you were discussing.

002.129
YUSUFALI: "Our Lord! send amongst them a Messenger of their own, who shall rehearse Thy Signs to them and instruct them in scripture and wisdom, and sanctify them: For Thou art the Exalted in Might, the Wise."

Annie notice the first part of the verse where it says "Our Lord! Send amongst them." If in fact we are indeed prophet why does God have to send a prophet amongst prophets? If we in fact do contain the same capabilities as other prophets of old why did God in the times of old send a prophet? This is the part in which I challenge you to answer Annie.

As I mentioned before we all contain the same mechanisms as prophets but doesn't mean that God activates those capabilities in every human. God chooses whom he wills to lead humankind so I challenge you to answer my first inquiry.

Alaikoam Salam

I believe I have answered your questioned however will attempt further references as soon as I can find them again.

It is true we are all leaders, teachers, followers and students and with each moment we step up to the plate in a different capacity and of course when we are doing bad or negative behaiors there is no sense in following that though it may appear appealing at first glance possibly due to our lack of education, counseling, or consulting or our basic ability to comprhend and process information.

Will have to explore the Hadeath too so this may take an evening to complete.

Though I bet if all Mankind agreed with me one would think about it twice before discounting the importance of it.

Some of the research I have done already...

 

Messiah Support Writings Part One

Quotes and verses where my inspiration came from....

You are the light of the world.  A city built on a hill cannot be hid.  No one after lighting a lamp puts it under a bushel basket, but on a lamp stand, and it gives light to all in the house.  In the same way, let your light shine before others, so they may see your good works and give glory to your father in heaven.

Jesus Mathew 5, verse 14

***

Celebrate and be happy this day has risen for it is evident in it�s wonder!  The Creator has set within you integrity and in your heart has set a brilliant star, verily it�s radiance shall light the whole world.

Inspired By

The writings of Bahaullah

***

In the last days, God says,
I will pour out my Spirit on all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
your young men will see visions,
your old men will dream dreams.
Even on my servants, both men and women,
I will pour out my Spirit in those days,
and they will prophesy.

Acts 2, 17-18

***

`So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Then God blessed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth..."

Genesis 1 :26

 

****

Be as I am; for I am as ye are:

Jesus Galations 4:12

***

And the King will answer and say to them, "Assuredly, I say to you, in as much as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.'

Mathew 25:40

****

See the home of God is among mortals, He will dwell with them as their God; they will be his/her people. And God himself will be with them; he will wipe every tear from their eyes...

Revelations 21. 1-4

***

Mankind manifests all the glory of God.  He is a Talisman.  Lacking education, counseling, consultation and cooperation man is but a rag doll who is blown around like leaves in the wind to fall where they may.  Give this same man an education, some counseling and consultation and cooperation and he will achieve personal peace, then peace in the family, then peace amongst friends, then peace amongst the community, then peace amongst the Nation and finally World peace.

28. 4-5

Inspired From Bahaullah�s Teachings on Spiritual Reality

Messiah Support Part Two

 Behold! Thy Lord said to the angels: ...I am about to create man, from sounding clay from mud molded into shape: ...When I have fashioned him in (due proportion ) and breathed into him of My spirit. Fall ye down in obeisance unto him....

Quran Surah 15 Ayah 28 & 29

*****

We gave Moses the Book and followed him up with a succession of Messengers; we gave Jesus the son of Mary clear (Signs) and strengthened him with the holy spirit. Is it that when ever there comes to you a Messenger with what ye yourselves desire not. Ye are puffed up with pride? Some ye call impostors, and others ye slay.

Quran Surah 2 Ayat 87

***

Glory to God creator of all things; imprinted on the heart of Man is the mysteries of his preexistence.  Of these mysteries he understood little.  We created illuminated verses for those who can comprehend and are willing to submitted to him.  Thus he brought everything into existence for our comfort and  pleasure.  With one word he sent forth another ardent soul as his Messenger.  This was for the sake of Mankind and the world and the establishment of Heaven in many important and diverse realms.

 Salam Alaikoam

In using these research sources I feel they are expressions of Islam and it's evolution.

Though I believe Jesus PBUH said it well when he said be as I am, ie a Prophet, a Messenger and speak the truth so that truth may be told among you in all of your days not just a few of them.

One person can make a difference but they cannot heal all the world all on their own, however they can heal their inner world, the world of their family, the world of their community, Nation and World by doing their part, their share and carrying a portion of the burden of Messenger and Prophet.

The burden and challenge is too important and vital to be left in the hands or minds of just one person no it is something to be shared eqwually and according to ability but in the end it is or should be on equal footing for all not just some of the people.

Though this sounds big it is, however if we begin with a Prophecy for ourselves and commit to becoming healthier and happier, more caring and compassionate with ourselves others and the environment we will see the world unfold in a more vibrant and delightful ways.

Then the burdens now shared by a few will be more evenly distributed and each person will know where they stand and what their purpose is.

That purpose is to Know and Love Allah, God , the Creator in themselves, others and the Environment.

Our Spiritual Environments and Economies depend on this.

There is hope, we are it.

Please note for a number of years I worked at being a Bahai but when I started on the Messiah, Prophethood project of my own undertaking I step down from the Bahai Faith and began learning about Islam for it says in the Bahai writing to explore Islam so we understand our own religion.

I was given a Quran about fifteen years ago and began to study it and what Islam meant to me.

My research reflects my spiritual insight and journey.

I do not have all the answers however I believe I have the ability to inspire humnaity to it's Great Station and Nobility and it's true purpose in existing here, though greatfully the task is not mine alone.

Inshallah may you be patient with me and consider carefully what I have shared before making a judgement on the Message.

Salam Alaikoam

Peace be with you!
