What's the shortest surah in the Quran?

I was discussing Saudi Arabia's human rights abuses and its similarities with the Soviet Union. They both have terrible records in regards to religious freedom. Obviously the Ottomans were far more tolerant, although the Wahhabis found issue with that, hence their waging war on the Ottomons.

But it is a good example of indicating the difference. If you want more exaples, Muslims are allowed to become citizens in France. However, as the US Department of State indicates quite clearly, "Islam is the official religion, and the law requires that all citizens be Muslims." So we are comparing a country which allows Muslims to become citizens, with a country that doesn't allowed non-Muslims to become citizens. In France, there also exists a freedom to change your religion. In Saudi Arabia, leaving Islam is a punishable crime.
...
And I did just that. I was criticising both Saudi Arabia and the Soviet Union. I am an atheist, and I criticised a state that enforced atheism. But it seems near impossible to get some Muslims to criticise Saudi Arabia's abuses of religious freedom.

SubhanAllah verse of the day :

ٱﻟﻠَّﻪُ ﻻَٓ ﺇِﻟَٰﻪَ ﺇِﻻَّ ﻫُﻮَ ٱﻟْﺤَﻰُّ ٱﻟْﻘَﻴُّﻮﻡُ ۚ ﻻَ ﺗَﺄْﺧُﺬُﻩُۥ ﺳِﻨَﺔٌ ﻭَﻻَ ﻧَﻮْﻡٌ ۚ ﻟَّﻪُۥ ﻣَﺎ ﻓِﻰ ٱﻟﺴَّﻤَٰﻮَٰﺕِ ﻭَﻣَﺎ ﻓِﻰ ٱﻷَْﺭْﺽِ ۗ ﻣَﻦ ﺫَا ٱﻟَّﺬِﻯ ﻳَﺸْﻔَﻊُ ﻋِﻨﺪَﻩُۥٓ ﺇِﻻَّ ﺑِﺈِﺫْﻧِﻪِۦ ۚ ﻳَﻌْﻠَﻢُ ﻣَﺎ ﺑَﻴْﻦَ ﺃَﻳْﺪِﻳﻬِﻢْ ﻭَﻣَﺎ ﺧَﻠْﻔَﻬُﻢْ ۖ ﻭَﻻَ ﻳُﺤِﻴﻄُﻮﻥَ ﺑِﺸَﻰْءٍ ﻣِّﻦْ ﻋِﻠْﻤِﻪِۦٓ ﺇِﻻَّ ﺑِﻤَﺎ ﺷَﺎٓءَ ۚ ﻭَﺳِﻊَ ﻛُﺮْﺳِﻴُّﻪُ ٱﻟﺴَّﻤَٰﻮَٰﺕِ ﻭَٱﻷَْﺭْﺽَ ۖ ﻭَﻻَ ﻳَـُٔﻮﺩُﻩُۥ ﺣِﻔْﻈُﻬُﻤَﺎ ۚ ﻭَﻫُﻮَ ٱﻟْﻌَﻠِﻰُّ ٱﻟْﻌَﻈِﻴﻢُ

Allahu la ilaha illa huwa alhayyu alqayyoomu la takhuthuhu sinatun wala nawmun lahu ma fee alssamawati wama fee alardi man tha allathee yashfaAAu AAindahu illa biithnihi yaAAlamu ma bayna aydeehim wama khalfahum wala yuheetoona bishayin min AAilmihi illa bima shaa wasiAAa kursiyyuhu alssamawati waalarda wala yaooduhu hifthuhuma wahuwa alAAaliyyu alAAatheemu

Allah! There is no god but He,-the Living, the Self-subsisting, Eternal. No slumber can seize Him nor sleep. His are all things in the heavens and on earth. Who is there can intercede in His presence except as He permitteth? He knoweth what (appeareth to His creatures as) before or after or behind them. Nor shall they compass aught of His knowledge except as He willeth. His Throne doth extend over the heavens and the earth, and He feeleth no fatigue in guarding and preserving them for He is the Most High, the Supreme (in glory).


May Allah bless his mercy on all of us, guide us and keep us on the right path, increase our imaan throughout life and grant us Jannah. Ameen 😌

Ameen to all duas

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَآمِنُوا بِرَسُولِهِ يُؤْتِكُمْ كِفْلَيْنِ مِنْ رَحْمَتِهِ وَيَجْعَلْ لَكُمْ نُورًا تَمْشُونَ بِهِ وَيَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ ۚ وَاللَّهُ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ

O ye that believe! Fear Allah, and believe in His Messenger, and He will bestow on you a double portion of His Mercy: He will provide for you a Light by which ye shall walk (straight in your path), and He will forgive you (your past): for Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

(Sura 57, Aya 28)

I have three questions - True story

There was once a man who was an enemy to Islam. He had three famous questions that no person could answer. No Islamic scholar in Baghdad could answer his three questions...thus he made fun of Islam in public. He constantly ridiculed Islam and the Muslims. One day a small boy, who`s age was 10, came along and heard the man yelling and screaming at Muslims in the street. He was challenging people openly to answer the three questions.

The boy stood quietly and watched. He then decided that he would challenge the man. He walked up and told the man, "I will accept your challenge".

The man laughed at the boy and ridiculed the Muslims even more by saying, "A ten year old boy challenges me. Is this all you people have to offer!"

But the boy patiently reiterated his stance. He would challenge the man, and with Allah`s help and guidance, he would put this to an end. The man finally accepted.

The entire city gathered around a small "hill" where open addresses were usually made. The man climbed to the top, and in a loud voice asked his first question.

"What is your God doing right now?"

The small boy thought for a little while and then told the man to climb down the hill and to allow him to go up in order to address the question.

The man says "What? You want me to come down?"The boy says, "Yes. I need to reply, right?"The man made his way down and the small boy, age 10, with his little feet made his way up.

This small child`s reply was "Oh Allah Almighty! You be my witness in front of all these people. You have just willed that a Kafir be brought down to a low level, and that a Muslim be brought to a high level!"

The crowd cheered and screamed "Takbir"...."Allah-hu-akbar!!!"

The man was humiliated, but he boldly asked his Second question... "What existed before your God?"

The small child thought and thought.

Then he asked the man to count backwards. "Count from 10 backwards."The man counted..."10, 9 ,8 , 7 , 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1,0"The boy asked, "What comes before 0 ? "The man: "I don`t know...nothing".

The boy: "Exactly. Nothing was before Allah, for He is eternal and absolute.

"The crowd cheered again...."Takbir!"...."Allah-hu-akbar!!!!"

The man, now completely frustrated, asked his final question. "In which direction is your Allah facing?"The boy thought and thought.

He then asked for a candle. A candle was brought to him. The blessed child handed it to the man and asked him to light it.The man did so and remarked, "What is this supposed to prove?"

The young boy asked, "In which direction is light from the candle going?" The man responded, "It is going in all directions."The boy: "You have answered your own question. Allah`s light (noor) goes in all directions. He is everywhere. There is no where that He cannot be found."

"The crowd cheered again...."Takbir!"...."Allah-hu-akbar!!!"

The man was so impressed and so moved by the boy`s knowledge and spirituality, that he embraced Islam and became a student of the young boy.So ended the debate.

Who was the young boy?

The young boy was one of our leaders and one of the greatest scholars, Imam Abu Hanîfa (May Allah bless him).
