Hills are alive with the sound of ants talking - Miracle from Quran |
 |
 |
These findings were just reported in the journal Science, and coverd by Lewis Smith, Environment Reporter for the "Times". Yet, the
Quran revealed this miracle over 1400 years ago: "At length, when they came to a (lowly) valley of ants, one of the ants
said: "O ye ants, get into your habitations, lest Solomon and his hosts
crush you (under foot) without knowing it. So he smiled, amused at her speech; and he said: "O my Lord! so order
me that I may be grateful for Thy favours, which thou hast bestowed on
me and on my parents, and that I may work the righteousness that will
please Thee: And admit me, by Thy Grace, to the ranks of Thy righteous
Servants." (Quran, 27:18 - 19).

The Forbidden Hunting |
|
|
|
Islam has enjoined upon Muslims the correct relationship with animals. They are asked to treat animals well, and they are not allowed to kill animals except for food. The latter permission has to be carried out in accordance with the shari'ah (Islamic law-code). Only in limited cases some animals are allowed to be killed when they endanger the life of the human.

Shall I not tell you about the man who is kept away from Hell? |
|
|
|
 Once the Prophet (pbuh) was on a journey with his companions and they stopped for rest at a certain place. A bird had laid an egg there. A man took away the egg and the bird began beating her wings in a state of great distress. The Prophet (saw) inquired who had hurt her by taking her egg. When the man admitted that he had done that, the Prophet (pbuh) asked him to return the egg to the nest.
It was also reported
A companion who had some baby birds wrapped in a piece of cloth came to the Prophet. On enquiry, he told Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), "I heard a noise from a bush, went there, saw these chicks, and took them out. When their mother saw what had happened, she began to hover over my head." The Prophet (pbuh) told him to go back and return the chicks.
A'ishah (ra) reported Allah's Messenger (pbuh) as saying, "He who is given his share of gentleness is given from his share of the good of this world and the next, but he who is deprived of his share of gentleness is deprived of his share of the good of this world and the next."
Abdullah Ibn Masud (ra) reported Allah's Messenger (pbuh) as saying, "Shall I not tell you about the man who is kept away from Hell, and from whom Hell is kept away? From the person who is gentle and kind, accessible and of an easy disposition."
