Download here: http://al-masumeen.com/lectures/dr-shomali/islam-and-sexuality.html A discussion on Sexual Morals in Islam between Dr. Shomali and the host of the Talk show 'Minbar' on PressTV. Dr. Shomali is an esteemed intellectual in Islamic Ideology, especially in the fields of Theology. Dr. Shomali talks on the following points: -Sex is not evil, it is only the person, the agent, the soul, which may bring different desires together and with a miscalculation, or misdirection may come off with some tendency towards the evil -We, as Humans have two types of desires, one type of desires we share with animals, for example the desires for food, sex, rest. These desires are not neccessarily moral, it is up to US to satisfy these desires in either a moral or immoral way -However, we, as Humans have other desires which are not shared with animals, the desire for knowledge, serving others, beauty, devotion to God -All desires provide moral impact int our life - Either these desires are all neutral, which we share with animals, or they are all certainly moral -Islam teaches that all desires are created by the Almighty God -The desire for sex, relationship with the opposite gender, is not bad and is something which is needed, however this is not moral by itself, it is neutral. The intention of this sexual desire makes it either moral or immoral -The attitude towards the sexual desire can either make it moral, spiritual or on the other hand something purely immoral and lower than animals -This desire is something God has put in the 'design' of running human life -If the desire of sex is used to maintain family, becomes sacred, as the Prophet of Islam has said 'Marriage is the most sacred construction' -Islam recommends and promotes marriage -When sexual relations are done within the framework of the 'family' it becomes a spiritual method to get closer to God -The intellect must control the sexual desire, otherwise the desire would be satisfied in ways which are immoral -The Youth should be prepared as to how to control and channel this desire -Islam disapproves of open displays of sexuality and promotes sexuality which occurs inside the framework of marital relationships -The pressure of the sexual desire which is left without guidance and direction is like that of a river with fast flowing water, if you dont control the current of this water, it may go and flood houses and kill children who cannot cope with the pressure of the current, but if you control the water and direct the water towards a dam, then you can use this energy for making many good things out of it, so instead of being harmful, you can make it beneficial -If this strong and powerful sexual desire is directed towards the family relations, then like the river, it is so powerful that it can mantain families and save them from collapse, can bring love, mercy and passion to the family, but if we leave it, and don't direct it, then this desire damages the society and the family -Islam is very much in favor of sexuality that is guided towards the benefit and interest of human beings -Islam tells the men to lower the gaze when looking at women in order to respect and maintain her modesty and dignity -In Islam both man and women have equal say in marriage, parents cannot force marriages -'Islamic' countries are failing their duty in educating their people on marital relationships Sexual Ethics in Islam and in the West, by Shaheed Mutahheri (ra): http://www.al-islam.org/sexualethics/1.htm Marriage and Morals in Islam: http://al-islam.org/m_morals/index.htm

The Minbar of Saleh ud-Din Ayyubi

Minbar of Salah ud-Din Ayyubi

Babylon 5 War Collections- Minbari Civil War The Minbari are a very religious people. The Minbari religion does not have a central god figure, nor does it have a pantheon of gods, though on one confusing instance in an early episode Delenn did speak of "The gods." The Minbari have a belief that the universe itself is sentient, and that the universe has the ability to break itself into many pieces and invests itself in every form of life. Consequently, every being is a projection of a part of the universal soul. They believe that the universe uses the perspective of individual sentient beings in a process of self-examination and a search for meaning (similar to the real-life belief of pantheism). Valen is a central figure in Minbari religion.[2] However, Valen is not considered a deity. He was a "Minbari not born of Minbar". About AD 1260, a fortress suddenly appeared in Minbari space, on which resided Valen flanked by Vorlons, who then led the Minbari people against the Shadows. After the war, Valen helped restructure Minbari society, organizing the Grey Council to lead it. These nine individuals came from each of the three castes. This form of government remained stable for a thousand years until the next Shadow War. Valen knew the Shadows would return and wrote prophecies to warn the Minbari when the next war was starting.[3] After these tasks were completed, Valen left Minbar; the remainder of his life and eventual fate is still a mystery, though it has since been kept a secret by the Grey Council that he did have a wife and children in self-imposed exile, most of whom returned to Minbari society in secret, had families of their own, and added human DNA to the Minbari gene pool. Minbari with human DNA are consequently called "children of Valen". Delenn will eventually learn she is herself a "child of Valen". Minbari people believe in reincarnation. They feel that after an individual has died, the soul of the individual joins with all the other departed Minbari souls. The souls then all meld together becoming one. Then the souls are reborn into the next generation of Minbari. Thus Minbari do not welcome Soul Hunters—their gathering of souls interferes with the reincarnation process.[4] This was the central reason behind the Minbari stopping their war with the humans, as they had found "that Minbari souls were reborn in human bodies" as well as the fact that the Minbari have some human DNA.[5] [edit] True Seekers Minbari respect the role of "true seekers", which Delenn explains are those who follow the calling of their hearts. Even when such a seeker's task appears to be folly, other Minbari -- especially religious caste -- will provide what assistance they can. This was showcased in Grail, an episode during which a human boarded Babylon 5 searching for the holy grail and Delenn aided him in his quest.[6]

http://www.artehistoria.com/civilizaciones/videos/471.htm Según la tradición islámica, el profeta Mahoma debió emigrar o huir de La Meca junto con sus seguidores en el año 622, refugiándose en Medina. El oasis de Yatrib, la actual Medina, era una amplia extensión de palmeras y árboles frutales, entre los que se alzaban campamentos de tiendas y casas. La casa de Mahoma era un edificio rudimentario, construido con piedras y ladrillos de adobe sin cocer. Una serie de habitaciones daban a un patio rectangular, cercado por una tapia. Cuando la casa fue adaptada como lugar de oración, al patio se le añadió un pórtico a lo largo de la parte norte del muro. Este muro o quibla, orientado hacia Jerusalén, indicaba el punto hacia el que dirigir las plegarias. En el patio pasaba Mahoma la mayor parte del tiempo. Allí recibía a las delegaciones de las tribus árabes y, sobre todo, se rezaba la oración común. Subido a un púlpito de madera, precedente del minbar de las mezquitas, Mahoma realizaba la predicación a los fieles. Tras el regreso de Mahoma a La Meca, ésta se convirtió en la ciudad santa del Islam, por lo que las oraciones debieron dirigirse hacia allí. Por esta razón, se construyó un segundo pórtico en el lado sur. La casa de Mahoma en Medina, por su simplicidad, servirá como inspiración para la construcción de muchas mezquitas.

The muezzin (in Arabic: مؤذن mu'adhdhin) is a chosen person at the mosque who leads the call (adhan) to Friday service and the five daily prayers (also known as the salat) from one of the mosque's minarets (in most modern mosques, electronic amplification aids the muezzins). The professional muezzin is chosen to serve at the mosque for his good character, voice and skills. When calling to prayer, the muezzin faces the Qiblah (direction of the Ka'bah in Mecca) while he cries out the adhan. During the prayer, the muezzin in some mosques stand on a special platform (called the müezzin mahfili in Turkish), opposite the minbar in the mosque and answer the Imam's sermons. The institution of muezzin has existed since the time of Muhammad. The first muezzin was Bilal ibn Ribah, who walked the streets to call the believers to come to prayer. Although large parts of the custom was undecided by the death of Muhammad: Which way one should choose for the calling, where it should be performed, etc., trumpets, flags and lamps were all elements during the adhan in the place of the muezzin. The first muezzins used the roof of the mosque, or the adjacent streets, to call the followers. It is believed that the institution of the muezzin — the public crier — existed in pre-Islamic Arab culture. The acts of the muezzin are also considered an art form, reflected in the melodious chanting of the adhan.

The Minbar of Saleh ud-Din Ayyubi

Wahhabis Oppose True Salaf in The Islamic Beliefs ولتكن منكم أمة يدعون الى الخير و يأمرون بالمعروف و ينهون عن المنكر Wahhabis Refuted by Ahlus-Sunnah Scholars. Wahhabis are a sect that emerged 250 years ago. This sect claims to follow Salaf, but that is not true. Imam Abu Ja^far at-Tahawiyy as-Salafi said: "Allah is supremely clear of all boundaries, extremes, sides, organs and instruments. The six directions do not contain Him--these are attributed to all created things." Can they abide by that? Ibn Taymiah when he looked into philosophy he strayed from the path of Ahlus-Sunnah. That's why 4 judges from the four schools confronted him and imprisoned him because of his misguidance! Imam al-Mujtahid As-Subkiy refuted him and declared him as a kafir clearly because he opposed in over 60 issues of ijma^. That's why Ibn Taymiah died in prison and was buried outside of the Muslim cemetery. Amongst his misguidance is his claim that hellfire terminates and the torture stops on the kafir (even the wahhabi leader Albani said: We wish he never said that!). He claimed that the world is eternal (Azaliy) along with Allah! He claims that Allah sits on the throne and seats Muhammad by him!! (as mentioned in his book Majmoo^ al-Fatawa s4,p374)! And once he descended off the minbar and said Allah descends like I did!! He breached the Ijma^ and opposed al-Qur'an, and wahhabis follow blindly. One must WARN and BE WARNED from Ibn Taymiah's books and the misguided khawarij of our era, the wahhabi sect that declare all Muslims as kuffar namely all Muslims who visit the Prophet's grave or ask Allah by the Prophet or seek blessings from his traces.. they consider them all as Mushriks. We must warn from wahhabis.
