Sickness washes away the dirt of sins like soap, and cleanses. It
is established in an authenticated hadith that illnesses are
expiation for sins. It says, "As ripe fruits fall from the tree
when it is shaken, so the sins of a believer fall away with the
shaking during illness".
God has, within His universal and all-inclusive rules, special
favours and help, as well as particular manifestations, that
encourage every being to turn to Him at any time and ask Him to
meet any of its needs. Also, in order to make His Existence and
Unity evident, He opened windows on himself from all apartments,
all levels of creation and worlds, all groups of existence and
individuals, and all things. He left a phone in every heart.
The books in "Humanitys Encounter with the Divine" Series
illuminate and reassure your mind, heart, soul, and conscience
Books from the Risale-i Nur collection offer a modern Quranic
commentary, addressing the needs and understanding of our age.
This book is adapted from the Risale-I Nur collection and covers
very fundamental topics discussed in the first chapters of The
Words. These include the importance of phrase In the Name of God
and how it is manifested upon the face of entire creation, the
necessity of religion, and the wisdom behind different prayer
times.
This index lists all the topics in the "Risale-i Nur", the author's
great multi-volume commentary on the Qur'an, and provides an
outline for the later, more famous and massive treatise. Now
available in English, it offers an overview of the material treated
in the "Risale-i Nur" and an opportunity to browse through brief
entries such as "Flower", "Spark" and "Whiff" each of which is a
keyword linked to a passage in the Qur'an or a figure of speech in
a theological argument.
The Staff of Moses is a collection of Nursi's writings concerning
worship, youth, life after death, belief in the Hereafter and their
relation with happiness in this world and the next.
Through the light of the Quran, I saw that both for myself and
everyone else this world is a temporary market place set up on the
road for the passers-by to shop in, a guest-house which every day
filled and emptied...O respected elderly men and women who feel
their old age as I do! We are leaving; there is no use in deceiving
ourselves. Even if we close our eyes to it, we will not be allowed
to remain here. There is mobilisation. The land of the Intermediate
Realm of the grave, which appears to us as dark and as the land of
eternal separation because of the delusions that arise from
heedlessness and in part from the people of misguidance, is the
meeting place of friends. It is the realm where we will meet with,
foremost, Gods Beloved, upon him be peace and blessings, and with
all our friends.
The Letters consists of the most important letters, and those
having the most general interest, written by Bediuzzaman Said Nursi
to his students between 1926 and 1932. The letters, arranged by the
author, were written in response to his student's questions and to
reply to those who had adopted anti-Islamic viewpoints and ideas.
The author discusses, among many other subjects, life, Paradise and
Hell, how the Qur'an and science view nature, divine unity,
knowledge and love of God; and the advantages and risks of
following a spiritual order.
Prepare yourselves. You will go to another and permanent realm, a
realm that will make this one seem like a dungeon. You will go to
the seat of our king's rule, and receive his compassion and bounty,
if you heed and obey this edict. If you rebel and disobey it, you
will be cast into awesome dungeons.
You should pursue Gods good pleasure in your actions. If He is
pleased with you, even if the whole world is displeased, it is of
no consequence. If He approves, it has no effect even if all others
reject your ideas or actions. When He is pleased and approves, even
if you do not seek the approval of others, should He will it to be
so and His Wisdom requires it, He will make other others accept it
and be pleased with you. For this reason, it is absolutely
necessary to aim at God Almightys good pleasure in the service of
the Quran and belief.
Discussions and Comparisons vividly demonstrates the true natures
of and difference between belief and unbelief through both concrete
and rational arguments and producing the human conscience and basic
nature as witnesses, especially through comparisons of belief and
unbelief, of right guidance and misguidance. Using easily
understood stories, comparisons, and explanations, the author
produces categorical proofs, showing that modern scientific
discoveries actually support and reinforce the truths of faith.
Nursi uses the Qur'anic methodology of addressing each person's
intellect, and other inner and outer faculties, to encourage people
to study the universe and its functioning in order to understand
creation's true nature and purposes, which will, in turn, lead to
learning the Attributes of the One and only Creator as well as
their own duties as God's servants.
"The Rays" is one of the key volumes of the Risale-i Nur
Collection. In this volume, Bediuzzaman Said Nursi offers his
insight on matters of belief with convincing arguments he puts
forward in essays like The Supreme Sign. For Bediuzzaman,
affirmation of faith is much easier than denial, for a single
indication is enough for the former whereas an exhaustive
investigation of the entire cosmos and throughout all times is
necessary for the latter. He affirms that matters concerning what
is sacred and spiritual require certainty and advancement in
spiritual work; so denial based on evidence from material sphere
and restricted only to what our eyes can see is unworthy of
consideration. Belief is knowledge and a manifestation of being,
and convictions underlying unbelief are ignorance and absence of
judgement.
Thirty treatises written by this influential Islamic scholar
address key issues of humanity, as discussed in the Qur'an, that
are equally applicable to modern society. Essays of this title
include expositions on nature and its impossibility without the
existence of God, the concept of sincerity and why it is a crucial
part of Islamic practice, and suggested ways for the elderly and
sick to treat their ailments while staying true to their religion.
The book includes selections from the Risale-i Nur on the unity and
existence of God as evidenced by the universe. Selected treatises
show Bediuzzaman's effective use of the Book of Universe to provide
evidences pointing to one and imnipresent God.
Written by a celebrated Islamic scholar to his students in Turkey
after his political exile in 1925, these letters follow the
long-established traditions of correspondence between spiritual
masters and their students in remote lands. Both expressions of
friendship and long-distance tutorials on points of scholarly
debate, most of the letters are answers to questions about theology
and hold forth on such matters as the nature of hell, the suffering
of innocents, the miracles of Prophet Muhammad, and the divine
purpose of the universe.
