Quranul Karim. A wonderful wave of ideas, language, exuberance, ideals. The recitation of which creates a spiritual revolution in the human mind. Every person who comes to the Qur'an is motivated to change his goals, objectives, programs and thoughts as well as his whole life. Which is not possible in the context of any other book. The great teaching of the Qur'an awakens the love of God in the human mind and faith is strong. The greed of the world cannot attract him. Even the harshest and harshest oppression, oppression and torture cannot deprive him of the presence of Allah even for a moment. The Companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) have set innumerable examples of this. An example of the enlightened faith of Islam is given: Hazrat Abdullah bin Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with him) was the commander of the campaign against the Roman Empire during the reign of Hazrat Omar (may Allah be pleased with him), the second caliph of Islam. Incidentally, they were all captured by the enemy in the Roman Empire. They were brought before the emperor. The emperor offered a tempting and terrible punishment to the general of Islam, saying that if you leave Islam and convert to Christianity, I will share with you in my kingdom. The emperor's idea was that the desert general would be persuaded by his greed for wealth, influence, power, and strength. It is not possible to move away from Islam in exchange for the whole world. Hazrat Abdullah Ibn Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with him) rejected the emperor's proposal out of sheer hatred. The emperor issued a decree to hang him and destroy him by throwing rain at him. He was brought to the gallows as per instructions. Death was dancing in front of him. What a surprise! There is not the slightest sign of fear, restlessness, anxiety and worry in the eyes of the companions of this guava servant of Allah. Which surprised and insulted the emperor. So the emperor decided that it would not be right to give him a simple punishment like hanging. It was ordered to bring him from the gallows. The emperor issued a new edict, heating water in a large pot. One of his companions was thrown into the boiling water in front of Hazrat Abdullah. It was seen that immediately the flesh fell from the bones of his body. The emperor then said to the commander of Islam, "If you do not renounce your religion and convert to Christianity, you will also have to suffer this punishment." He replied bluntly, ‘I am ready to die by being thrown into boiling water. But it is not possible for me to leave Islam. The emperor's soldiers tied his hands and feet and took him to a pot of boiling water. In fact, he remembered a saying of the emperor. The emperor stopped the soldiers and asked, "Why are you smiling and why are there tears in your eyes?" The commander of Islam said, "It is very unfortunate that I have only one soul. If I had a hundred souls, I would have sacrificed every soul in the way of Allah. 'The emperor was astonished at this astonishing answer. He thought that the punishment of such a person was not 'death' at all, but it was better to keep you alive. The emperor said to him, 'You kiss my head. I will set you free. 'Hazrat Ibn Hudhayfah said,' Not only me, but if you release all my companions, then I agree to your proposal. ' When he came, he informed Hazrat Omar of all the narrations. Hazrat Omar (may Allah be pleased with him) kissed the head of Hazrat Abdullah bin Huzaifa, the Muslim general enlightened by the light of the Qur'an. This is the wonderful inspiration of the Qur'an and faith. Which overcomes violence and harshness and enlightens a person in the light of faith. May Allah grant us all the Tawfiq to be enlightened in the light of the Qur'an. Donate tawfiq to study the Qur'an. Amen.
It's a nice story about standing your faith and religion. Though I don't share yours I find this a good story.
