Islam is a religion of kindness and mercy, it is a religion of ease and tolerance. It is regarded as the vital aspect of 5 pillars of Islam and consists of almost seventy branches. When Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) was asked: �What is Emaan�.

He replied:

�Emaan is patience and tolerance�.

From the above mentioned hadith, it means that both patience and tolerance are regarded as the integral part of belief of Muslims and they are from the best aspects of Eemaan, which declares the fact that there is no God but Allah. Tolerance and patience are regarded as the traits of every Muslim and are also a part of Eemaan in Islam. It acknowledges the unparallel sovereignty of one and only true Creator, Allah.

Eemaan(Faith) is regarded is the core and heart of Islam and is the heart and core of faith. Any piece of knowledge or deed that does not make the faith is not considered normal and faith that does not urges to perform the good deed is also abnormal. When a thing is part of such important aspect of Islam, the Eemaan is not just the part, instead from the best of various branches of Eemaan, you will be able to understand the value and its significance in the life of a Muslim. Attacking and Degrading of religion is not at all easy. The religion that makes it as a vital part of faith for being tolerant is not attacked by some modernists who claim that Islam is not the intolerant religion.

You need to understand that people who deviate from the basic teachings of any religion cannot be taken as the perfect examples of that religion. Ina similar manner, if any person calls himself as a Muslim, it shows the intolerance where he must not harm any other person whether he is a Muslim or a non-Muslim without any valid reason. Tolerance is Islam is not just a fairytale phrase, instead all Muslims live in it. Islam also urges all mankind to be tolerant and forgiving to others. This is mentioned in both Sunnah and the Quran. You will never find a believer except for the one who has hope and fear in his heart.

I believe marriage is recommended because God cares about our happiness in this life, as well as the next. I do not believe He will punish someone who cannot find a suitable spouse. "Deen" means path, even Kufar have a path (as mentioned in the Quran). There is no such thing as half a path. If you can marry, good for you. If not, have patience, Insha-Allah God will provide the means for you.

Marriage is not a fard but prophet Muhammad S.A.W(pbuh) ones said that marriage is my sunnah and those who refrain from it will not be one of me,this shows marriage is important,prophet also said that those who have means to marry should marry,In Surah Al Baqarah ch 2 v 187-Allah says about husband and wife,they are the garments of one another means both are protector of each other.

assalamalaikum dear brothers and sisters
Just recently I have come to know that marriage in islam is not farz and its sunnah and it completes the deen of a person (whose deen remains half otherwise). This is not my first post regarding marriage but i have no other way to ask anyone freely as i can do here so please can any one say what is the ruling in islam about staying unmarried?(if its not by one's own wish but when even after repeated attempts things dont turn out to be favourable for marriage, can that person finally decide to stay unmarried?)
Thanks in advance, kindly answer

Why many muslims are so eager to prove Islam with this method? Let see what he says in fragmant since there is no clip available:

in it there is evidence that on Earth --- on a huge area -- the islamic testimony of faith is written down.

I assume he means the Shahadah.

also, you can see that planet Earth has got faces -- and they pray exactly the same way as we pray in islam,

I have no idea what that means. But trying to prove Islam this way is not good idea. Become better person is the ultimate proof and much better idea.

General Islamic Matter : Understanding The Bonds Of Brotherhood In Islam

There are various verses that give the relevant and important lessons about brotherhood. The first command comes from Almighty Allah (SWT) for the believers. This �Bond of Allah� is regarded as the religion of Islam and they also love one another. It is this unity and the brotherhood between the believers.

This ayah is the first one to come to my mind:

And hold fast, all together, by the rope which Allah, and be not divided among yourselves; And remember with gratitude Allah's favour on you; for ye were enemies and He joined your hearts in love, so that by His Grace, ye became brethren; and ye were on the brink of the pit of Fire, and He saved you from it. Thus doth Allah make His Signs clear to you: That ye may be guided (3:103)

Allah in Surah Al Hujurat ch 49 v 13 says that he has created us from single pair and has divided us in different regions and colours so that we can recognise and develop harmony among ourselves,the best among others is the one who is closer to Allah,pious,does good deeds.
