MIRAJ

Salih Sabri Yavuz, PhD

Deriving from the root urûc meaning "to ascend, to rise," the word miraj means "a vehicle for ascending." As a term it refers to the Prophet Muhammad's (pbuh) ascension to the heavens and his rise to Allah's presence. Islamic sources generally take up the event of the miraj in two stages. The Prophet's journey in one night from the Masjid-i Haram to the Masjid-i Aqsa is called the isra, and his ascension from there to the heavens is called the miraj.

MIRACLES

Elif Eryarsoy Aydin

Miracle (mujiza in Arabic) means “a wonderous event that can not be imitated and makes people feel powerless.” However, this frequently encountered word is not used in the Quran or in the hadiths (sayings of the Prophet). Instead, the words ayet (sign), ayat (signs), beyyine, delil(proof), delail (proofs) are adopted in the Quran to designate a miracle.

THE HISTORICAL BASIS OF TOLERANCE IN ISLAM

Ali Akyuz

"That which We have revealed to thee of the Book is the Truth, -- confirming what was (revealed) before it: For God is assuredly -- with respect to his servants - well acquainted and fully observant." (Al-Fatir, 31)

"Nothing is said to thee that was not said to the apostles before thee." (Al-Fussilat, 43)

THE MIRACLES OF THE LAST PROPHET

M.Sadik Hamidi-Elif Eryarsoy Aydin

The Holy Quran is neither a poem nor a work of prose with rhymes. It is in its own right an unprecedented and divine text. For this reason, the Arabs were awestruck by the Quran since such a written work was unprecedented; they were left with no other choice but to claim that the Quran was full of magic.

THE CALL OF PROPHET MUHAMMAD WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF HIS EXEMPLARY PERSONALITY

Ibrahim Saricam, PhD

The Quran qualifies Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) as the ‘preacher calling to Allah’ and expresses the duties laid upon him through commands such as ‘to give advice’, ‘to invite’, ‘to declare’ and ‘to warn’.

FAREWELL ADDRESS

Praise be to Allah. We glorify Him; we thank Him. We expect help from Him. We ask to be forgiven by Him and, with repentance, we turn to Him in obedience. We take refuge in Allah against the evil suggestions of our nafs and doing bad acts. Whomever Allah shows the truth, no one can make him stray from the true path.
