| | According to the teachings of Islam (Surah 53:42–47), only Allah knows why people are suffering or when they will die, and it is a great sin both to take life and to try to alter God's will. | | | Sexual relations within marriage are believed to have been given to people by God, and are therefore a natural, wholesome part of life not to be suppressed. | | | The death penalty is given for murder or for open attacks on the Islamic faith (Surah 17:33). |

| | Again and again, and in different contexts, the Holy Koran speaks of Muslims as believing in all the prophets of God and not in the Holy Prophet Mohammad alone: "Righteousness is this that one should believe in Allah and the last day and the angels and the books and the prophets" (2:177). | | | The most important chapter of the Qur’an is that of surah 75 Al-Qiyamah, the heart, mind and soul of Islam. | | | She informed the Believers who had gathered to meet Her that in Islam there was a complete surah written about Her. |

| | One thing that should be kept in mind is that this surah was not necessarily revealed because someone had inquired from the Prophet (sws) about the attributes of God; but as is indicated earlier, the very circumstances in which the question of Tawhid had become a burning topic were enough to cause its revelation. | | | The prejudice of their self-carved idols became so intense that they vehemently argued with God and His last Prophet (sws) that until and unless the status of their idols is accepted, they would not acknowledge the rights of God. | | | It is mentioned in Surah Fatihah that God is the sole Cherisher and Sustainer of the worlds and Master of the Day of Judgement, and as such we all must always express our gratitude to Him. |

| | This Surah has been especially addressed to two groups-the people of the Book (the Jews and the Christians) and the followers of Muhammad (Allah's peace be upon him). | | | They have been told here that Muhammad (Allah's peace be, upon him) taught the same right way of life that had been preached by their own Prophets; that it alone was the Right Way, the way of Allah; hence any deviation from it will be wrong even according to their own Scriptures. | | | The Muslims have been warned to learn a lesson from the religious and moral degeneration of the former communities and to refrain from treading in their footsteps. |

He hath, at this time, affirmed from the realm of glory and majesty that there is none other God but Him, the Protector, the Imperishable. | | | The Surah of Sacrifice is similar in style and concerns to other Tablets I have studied that we know to have been revealed around 1866-1867. | | | Note that it appears to be one of a number of Tablets in which Baha'u'llah appoints for Himself special emissaries to the Babi community in Iran; Isma`il "Dhabih" Kashani was just one of these. |
