The following is a translation from the book:  Mafaheem Islaamiyah Al-Juz’u-l-Awwal,  Islamic concepts – Volume One by  Muhammad Hussein Abdullah published in  1994. The Gharaa’iz (instincts), the Haajat Al-‘Udwiyah (organic needs) and At-Tafkeer (thinking ) رَبُّنَا الَّذِي أَعْطَى كُلَّ شَيْءٍ خَلْقَهُ ثُمَّ هَدَى Our Lord is He who gave each thing its form of creation and then guided its aright (Ta Ha 50). The human being is matter and Allah Ta’Aalaa has placed within him the Rooh, the secret of life, and He also provided man with a Taaqah Hayyawiyah (A vital energy) that is represented within the follow specific human attributes: The Gharaa’iz (instincts), organic needs and At-Tafkeer (thought).

The Saudi ambassador to the United States, Adel al-Jubair, announced on Thursday morning, 26/03/2015, the beginning of a military offensive against the Houthis comprising of air-strikes launched by a ten-state coalition, including all the Gulf states, except Oman. He mentioned that Saudi Arabia had consulted with the United States before taking this step. The Egyptian Foreign Minister announced the participation of Egypt and that four Egyptian naval warships were on their way to the Gulf of Aden. For his part, the Sudanese army spokesperson said,  "Sudan will participate based on our Islamic responsibility. We will not remain idle while the Muslim's Qibla and the land of Revelation is facing danger." The jets and battleship of these rulers have mobilized to invade Yemen, instead of attacking the Jewish entity, even though it is closer to them! The worst of their justifications is that this attack is to protect the Qibla of the Muslims, whilst it is has not been invad...

Several Gulf States, led by Saudi Arabia declared war on the Houthis in Yemen and their allies in the military operation dubbed "al-Hazm Storm", Operation Decisive Storm. The operation began Thursday 26/03/2015 CE after midnight, and then other Arab countries announced their support and willingness to participate in this operation; including Egypt, Morocco, Sudan and Jordan, as well as Pakistan. The Gulf states - with the exception of Oman - led by Saudi Arabia, have justified this operation as a response to a request from the Yemeni President Abed Rabbo Hadi, to protect Yemen and its people from the constant aggression by al-Houthi, who meddle with the security of the region and the international peace and security, as well as to assist Yemen in the face of terrorist organizations like al-Qaeda and ISIS - that it is guaranteed based on the principle of self-defense enshrined in Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations and in accord with the Charter of the Arab Leag...

A translation from the archives. 5th Muharram 1389 23/3/1969 The basis of Islaam is the Yaqeen Al-Qat’iy (decisive certainty) in the existence of Allah, the definite certainty in that the Qur’aan is the Kalaam (speech) of Allah and the Yaqeen Al-Qat’iy that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. This Yaqeen Al-Qat’iy in these three together represents the basis of Islaam and from them all of the Aqaa’id (beliefs) of Islaam and its Ahkaam (rulings) branch out. The Yaqeen (certainty) in the existence of the Sillah (connection) of the person with Allah with the meaning that there are spiritual things in accordance to this meaning branches from the Yaqeen in the existence of Allah. If there is Yaqeen in the existence of Allah then there must also exist a realisation of the Sillah (connection/relationship) of the human with Allah. There must therefore exist a spiritual aspect within the Muslim whilst making it control over his him in respect to his speech, actions and all of his beh...
