Lesson from revelation of Surah Anam

All of Saudia is like this, desert, plain sand filled valleys and screeching sun. It was just the same in Prophet’s time in year 622. People were attacking him. All followers of Islam were either abominated or secluded. Their trade routes were cut off. Painters among them were not finding paper. Teachers in them were not finding students. Brothers were missing sisters and children were made to die without milk. Difficult, hard and tough.

What do you do when you are isolated and death is imminent?

You find hope. Love. Vision. Purpose. Something that makes the death colorful. Dying easier. Worst just. It was only Quran that could bring these people out of misery. Allah made it happen direct, literal and physical. Allah physically gave us Quran with 70,000 angels bringing down 165 heavy verses of Surah Al Anam.

I will not tell you the story of revelation. I am not a mufti, a mullah or a scholar. I am not intelligent and not smart. I am big bold Zero. I just speak truth and take Quran literally. You can read scholarly words here.

Quran is the only creation that one can bank upon. Rest it is all variable. Nothing is in our control. We are vulnerable to our roots. One molecule missing its path to lungs will cause instant death. One spark of neuron will create joy. If it had not been Quran, in year 622, Muslims would have surrendered. They would have given up. Because, we humans are breakable and bendable. It was a bigger cause and purpose, that made our brothers and sisters back then, invincible.

Revelation of this Surah, was an affirmation to muslims. It was an acknowledgement and direction.

Conclusion

Quran is a combination of these surahs. If one surah in Meccan period can bring us victory, why Quran today can not bring us victory. Why do we believe it is just a book of verses and poetry. Why we do not act upon it.

Read history. Brothers, this is scientifically the most successful formula to conquering all of good hearts. Proven. Logical. Systematic.

Zakatlists is my name. Brothers in Ramadanmakers, Facebook, Techshek, Twitter, zakatlists is just a name.I do not want your money. Burn it. Destroy it. I want you all just get closer because you all are muslims. Just get closer and begin awkward discussions to connect. Let us break our barrier of comfort and unite on Quran’s pillar.

I am so annoyed. So angust. And so sad. Prophet PBUH died, almost. His followers died. They died for us. That we paint, write, speak on stage and defend Islam. That we make our content accessible. That we become youtubers, freelancers and fighters of fear. That we paint this world with bright colors. That we take bold, blunt and ruthless initiatives.
