12. islam promotes honour killings
•
0 likes•343 views
An honour killing is when a family member murders another family member because they believe the victim brought dishonour upon the family, usually females but sometimes males. The Quran highly values life and only permits taking a life in very limited circumstances of murder or large-scale corruption. Nowhere does the Quran allow taking the law into one's own hands or acting as judge, jury, and executioner. The only acts punishable by death mentioned are murder and widespread corruption, not sex without marriage or compromising family honor. The Quran stresses equivalence in punishment and forgiveness.

Grace, Common and Effectual
1) Salvation is a free gift of God's grace and cannot be earned through good works. Grace declares that salvation is initiated by God, not by human questing after God.
2) All of life's gifts, including faith itself, are aspects of grace that are given freely by God without being deserved. Grace is universal and brings spiritual transformation through Christ's work.
3) There are two types of grace: common grace, which includes God's general blessings to all people, and efficacious grace, which is the Holy Spirit's work to effectually call some to faith in Christ through the Word of God. Our response to God's grace should be humility, motivation to serve God, and liberation knowing God
Effectual Grace Continued
This document discusses the doctrine of efficacious grace, which holds that God's grace enables some people to believe in Christ through no work or merit of their own. It notes several key points about efficacious grace: it declares that salvation is initiated by God, not by human questing; God chose believers before the foundation of the world; and no one can come to Christ unless drawn by God. Common objections are addressed, asserting that efficacious grace does not violate free will or make humans passive. The document concludes that efficacious grace should make believers more dependent on and desirous to be used by God, while also maintaining human responsibility.

Man's Nature and Destiny
The document presents an alternative view of man's nature and destiny to the popular Christian belief. It argues that God created humans as mortal souls from dust, not immortal souls placed in mortal bodies. When people die, they cease to exist until potentially being resurrected. Eternal life and salvation are future conditional gifts through obedience, faith and enduring to the end, rather than guaranteed possessions upon death. The document examines biblical texts to support its interpretation.
Human Rights in Islam
The document discusses Islamic principles of human rights and equality. It states that all humans are equal under God and deserve dignity. It outlines several rights guaranteed in Islam, including the right to life and security of person and property, freedom of belief, protection from imprisonment without cause, equality before the law, and the right of the oppressed to demand help. It provides Quranic verses and quotes from the Prophet to support these rights.
the holy al quran
The document discusses various topics from the Holy Quran related to social, economic and political aspects of human life. It provides verses from the Quran on topics like individual conduct, family relationships, societal obligations, economic transactions, political leadership and justice. The verses emphasize being kind, obeying parents, serving communities, prohibiting usury and gambling, consulting leaders, upholding justice and unity among believers.
Islam and Christianity Common Teachings
The document discusses how major world religions teach that diversity and differences between people are natural and accepted by God. It provides passages from the Bible, Quran, and Hadith that promote principles of diversity, impartial justice, religious tolerance, and kind treatment of all people regardless of beliefs. The teachings emphasize that while religious and cultural differences exist, the greatest commandments of loving God and others are shared across faiths. Overall, the document argues that recognizing and respecting diversity is a common message in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.
Repentance the Way to God's Mercy
This document discusses Islamic teachings on sin and repentance. It provides verses from the Quran indicating that all humans are born pure and sin is an acquisition rather than an inheritance. Each person is responsible for their own actions. True repentance requires sincerely intending not to repeat sins, seeking forgiveness from those wronged, and feeling guilt. Allah is close to those who call on Him for forgiveness with a sincere heart. The most superior form of repentance involves acknowledging Allah's blessings and asking forgiveness for sins.

Sources of Islamic Law, O Level Islamiyat by Jawaid Aurangzaib
This document provides an overview of the sources of Islamic law according to the syllabus of Jawaid Aurangzaib for O Level Islamiyat. It discusses the primary sources of Islamic law as the Quran and Sunnah. The Quran is considered the most fundamental source as it contains laws directly from God. Specific laws from the Quran are mentioned regarding topics like theft, adultery, abortion, usury, inheritance, food, divorce, dower, and murder. The importance of the Quran as the primary source is that its laws were revealed by God who has perfect knowledge of human nature and society.
The sin in Abrahamic (monotheistic) religions
God created humans with free will to choose between obedience and sin. While worldly desires are natural, following them without restraint leads to corruption of the soul over time. Sin violates God's instructions and harms not just the sinner, but others through corrupted actions. However, God is also merciful - forgiving all sins if one repents sincerely and strives to purify themselves. As long as we are alive, God gives opportunity to repent from past mistakes and change our ways going forward.

Death, Judgment and Eternity
The document discusses Catholic teachings on death, judgment, heaven, hell, and eternal life. It provides biblical support for the beliefs that:
1) Upon death, the soul is separated from the body and awaits reunion with the glorified body in the afterlife.
2) All people will face particular and general judgment after death, where they will receive eternal rewards or punishments.
3) The righteous will attain eternal life and communion with God in heaven, while those who reject God will face eternal damnation in hell.

100 fabricatedhadith
This is a document listing 100 fabricated hadith. While hadith are important Islamic religious texts, some hadith have been fabricated and are not authentic sayings of the Prophet Muhammad. This document appears to be cataloging 100 such fabricated hadith that Muslims should be aware are not true.
19 questions for muslim scholars
The document poses 19 questions to Muslim scholars regarding hadith (sayings and traditions of the Prophet Muhammad) and their relationship to the Quran. The questions challenge hadith that contradict the Quran or promote un-Islamic ideas. Examples of problematic hadith provided include ones allowing harm to women and non-Muslims. The document asserts that the Quran alone should be the source of guidance, as God guaranteed its preservation but not hadith. It argues Muslim scholars have made the same mistake as Jews in elevating fallible human sources over God's perfect word.
19 questions for chritian clergies
This document contains 19 questions directed at Christian clergy. It begins with an introduction explaining that discussing religious faith logically is difficult because most believers inherit their religion and defenses involve claims that God is incomprehensible. It notes that questioning traditions creates tension. The document discusses the doctrine of the Trinity, noting that it was formulated centuries after Jesus and is not found in the Old Testament or explicitly taught by Jesus. It questions whether Jesus ever claimed to be God.
30. quran orders to cut off hands of thief
1) Verse 5:38 from the Quran discussing punishment for thieves has commonly been interpreted to mean physically cutting off a thief's hand, but this is only one possible interpretation.
2) The verse and others suggest repentance and making amends is acceptable to God, so no punishment would be administered in that case.
3) The Arabic words used could also mean cutting ties/means of stealing or marking/cutting hands as a deterrent rather than physical removal.
4) Following the example from the story of Joseph in the Quran, detention and forced labor until repayment is made is another possible interpretation of the punishment.
27. quran says women must cover up fully
The document discusses women's dress code in Islam based on Quranic verses. It makes three main points:
1) The Quran emphasizes modesty and covering the body with garments but does not specify a particular style of dress.
2) Verses mentioning covering the chest and distinguishing beauty refer to specific body parts and situations, not a universal mandatory dress code.
3) Hadith and rulings have led to disagreement over women's dress beyond the basic Quranic principles of modesty and covering with flexible guidance.
33. quran is in oppose to democracy
The document summarizes how the Quran supports principles of democracy and democratic leadership through group consultation, representation, and social justice. It provides examples from the Quran showing that leaders should lead through consultation and example, prioritize the public good, promote social harmony and justice for all, and resolve issues peacefully through wisdom and good instruction. The Quran establishes that a just political system requires mutual accountability and protecting the rights and property of all.
32. islam is a religion
This document discusses the meaning of the word "Islam" and seeks to clarify common misconceptions. It explains that Islam primarily refers to a state of surrender to God, rather than a religious title, and that this concept of surrender is inherent in all things. The document also summarizes some key beliefs discussed in the Quran, such as monotheism and the unity of all faiths, and encourages reading the Quran with an open mind to gain a better understanding.
31. all muslims hold same view
The document summarizes that there are differing views among Muslims, just as there are among other large faiths. It notes that the two main sects of Islam are Sunni and Shia, but that there are other sects as well and interpretations can vary even within sects. While Muslims accept the Quran as divine revelation, the document highlights passages from the Quran emphasizing unity over division and condemning those who split faiths into sects. It concludes that religious opinions are not binding on all and there are examples of differences in views among Muslims.
29. quran promotes racism
The document discusses that Islam is not racist or biased towards any race or ethnicity. It summarizes several Quranic verses that emphasize righteousness over race or ethnicity, including that the most honorable people are those who are most righteous, not based on outward attributes. It also notes that the Quran portrays Arabs as having both good and bad people.
28. husband can divorce his wife immediately
The document discusses Islamic rules regarding divorce based on passages from the Quran. It states that a Muslim husband cannot instantly divorce his wife by simply saying "I want a divorce" three times, as there must be a waiting period. The Quran mandates a four month waiting period if the couple wishes to reconcile, and an arbitration process if they fear separation. Even after the waiting period is fulfilled, divorce should be handled equitably with witnesses before finalizing.
26. quran prohibits dog as a pet
Some believe that Muslims are not allowed to keep dogs, but the Quran narrates a story about righteous people accompanied by a dog and allows the use of hunting dogs. While some later narrations attributed to Muhammad and his companions contain both positive and negative information about dogs, the Quran itself contains no negativity about having a dog. Any confusion likely results from these later narrations, so the Quran should be followed in matters of confusion.
25. quran prohibits adoption
The Quran allows for adoption but advises retaining the adopted child's original identity by using their birth name. Adopted children should not be claimed as biological children but rather be considered as brethren, friends, or fellows. Adopted children are to be cared for and treated with the same affection as one's own children.
24. quran promotes polygamy
The Quran promotes monogamy as the basis for normal relationships, allowing polygamy only in exceptional circumstances to care for orphans. Polygamy is permitted to marry the mothers of fatherless children or widows after war to provide for them, with a maximum of four wives. However, the Quran emphasizes being fair and just to all wives, and that monogamy is preferred if fairness cannot be guaranteed in a polygamous marriage. It was revealed in a society where polygamy was common but sets restrictions to reduce it.
23. quran promotes slavery
The document summarizes Islam's position on slavery by making three key points:
1) When the Quran was revealed, slavery was a widespread practice, so it took a gradual psychological approach of emphasizing human dignity and equality to encourage freeing slaves, rather than an immediate ban that could cause economic issues.
2) The Quran lists freeing slaves as a penalty for misdemeanors and implies it as a type of charity, showing its preference for abolishing slavery.
3) Prisoners of war could only be kept temporarily until ransomed or released, prohibiting permanent enslavement - all of which was meant to gradually reduce and eventually abolish slavery.
22. quran promotes jihad and holywar
The document discusses the term "jihad" and how it is commonly misunderstood to mean only "holy war". The document explains that in the Quran, jihad is used in different contexts and can refer to any struggle or effort exerted in the cause of God, which may or may not include fighting. Some examples provided show jihad referring to parents' efforts to change their children's beliefs and striving against those who deny the truth with the message of truth. The document aims to clarify that jihad does not have an exclusive meaning of holy war or fighting as assumed by some.
21. islam banns gold silver and silk
The document discusses Islamic rules regarding wearing and owning gold, silver, and silk. It notes that the Quran allows enjoyment of gold and silver in this life and mentions their wearing in descriptions of heaven. While adornments are mentioned, there are no specific prohibitions against wearing gold or silver. The ban on men wearing silk is also not found in the Quran. The Quran says not to forbid things unless specifically prohibited by God.
19. 2 female equals to 1 male witness
The document discusses the context and interpretation of verses in the Quran relating to the testimony of men and women. It makes three key points:
1) The rule of a male witness equating to two female witnesses only applies to financial/business transactions, not all cases.
2) Other reasons for this rule could include men generally having more experience in financial matters and protecting women from pressure in disputes.
3) In other situations like accusations of infidelity or where witnesses are required, the Quran does not differentiate between male and female testimony.
17. islam was spread by sword
While some claim that Islam spread by the sword through war and force, the document provides evidence that this was not the case. The Quran explicitly states there is no compulsion in religion. It also instructs Muslims to invite others with wisdom and good instruction. Islam spread peacefully to many lands like Indonesia without Muslim armies. Even where Muslim empires ruled for centuries in places like India and Spain, religious minorities survived and practiced freely. History shows Islam grew without the use of force or swords.
14. islam allows forced marriages
The document discusses marriage in Islam according to the Quran. It states that forced marriages are unacceptable in the Quran and that marriage requires mutual agreement and consent between partners. It provides examples from the Quran showing marriages were entered by mutual decision making and consultation between partners.
13. allah is the god of muslims only
Allah is the Arabic word for God and refers to the same singular God as the God described in Judaism and Christianity. Arabic is a Semitic language like Aramaic and Hebrew, and the word used to describe God in those languages is similar to the word "Allah" in Arabic, which literally means "The God" in English.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can

12. islam promotes honour killings
- 2. • An honour killing is when a family member is murdered by one or more fellow family members, when they believe the victim to have brought dishonour upon the family. The victims are usually female but can also be male.
- 3. • The Quran has a very high regard for a person's life and only accepts the taking of a life in very limited circumstances: • It is because of this that We have decreed for the Children of Israel: “Anyone who kills a person who has not committed murder, or who has not committed corruption in the land; then it is as if he has killed all of mankind! And whoever spares a life, then it is as if he has given life to all the people.”... [5:32]
- 4. • ...and do not kill the soul which God has forbidden, except in justice... [6:151] • And whoever kills a believer intentionally, then his reward shall be Hell, eternally abiding therein, and God will be angry with him, and curse him, and for him is prepared a great retribution. [4:93]
- 5. • It should be noted that nowhere in The Quran is a person allowed to take the law into their own hands and act as judge, jury and executioner. "Justice" here refers to a court of law. Also, the only acts punishable by death in The Quran are for murder and causing corruption in the land (i.e. done on a large scale), as shown above. • Sometimes an honour killing is carried out due to sex without marriage, but the punishment for this in The Quran is not death [see 24:2].
- 6. • The recurring theme of equivalence in The Quran must be taken into account when deciding upon the punishment for any crime: • And those who, when gross injustice befalls them, they seek justice. The recompense for a crime shall be its equivalence, but whoever forgives and makes right, then his reward is upon God. He does not like the wrongdoers. [42:39-40] • Thus, the equivalent punishment for having one's honour or family honour compromised can never be murder.
