Quran And The Egyptian History (Part 1)

One of the many miracles of Quran is the historical facts described in it. Many archaeological findings are discovered just recently and they were mentioned 1400 years ago in Quran.

The story of Musa (A.S) and Pharaoh is mentioned in Quran, where Allah mentioned that He will save the body of Pharaoh as a sign for future generations. (Quran And The Cities Of Sodom And Gomorrah (Part 2)

"Today, we will preserve your body, to set you up as a lesson for future generations." Unfortunately, many people are totally oblivious to our signs.” The Holy Quran, Chapter 10, Verse 92. After 3000 years the body of Pharaoh was found in the interval of 1881-1898. There are many historical miracles in Quran like:

"HAMAN" AND ANCIENT EGYPT MONUMENTS

Haman is mentioned six times in Quran as one of the closest allies to the pharaoh. The condemnation of many non-Muslims vanished after the Egyptian hieroglyphic script was deciphered some 200 years ago. The name Haman is mentioned in that ancient script.

THE TROUBLES WHICH AFFLICTED PHARAOH AND THOSE AROUND HIM

The arrogance of pharaoh and the people close to him who said to Prophet Musa that they may not believe even if He may bring signs. They said, "No matter what kind of Sign you bring us to bewitch us, we will not believe in you." The Holy Quran, Chapter 7, Verse 132

Because of their proud attitude Allah sent to them afflictions, which are described as signs. As mentioned in Quran: “We seized Pharaoh's people with years of drought and scarcity of fruits so that hopefully they would pay heed.” The Holy Quran, Chapter 7, Verse 130

In the early 19^th century a document dated back to the time of Prophet Musa (A.S) was found. It’s clearly mentioned in detail, the calamities and afflictions that struck the people of pharaoh. The calamities are also mentioned in Quran and the document confirms it.

Right Of Women To Wear Burqa

(All praise is due to Allah, Lord of the Realms; and Prayers and Peace of Allah be upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon all his family and companions)

Everyone has the right to express his point of view and to practice religions. Some of the non-Muslim countries don’t seem to believe in it. One of the examples is France banning the burqa for the Muslims.

This is found out to be a great issue as burqa is the part of the lives of Muslim women. All the non-Muslims out there in UK don’t agree with the decision of the French government.

Some of us in UK think that they would not do any harm to the women by restricting their right to express and practice there believes. This is not true.  Well being a religious intellectual it is true that the word burqa is not written in the Quran or Sunnah, Islam in Holy Quran.

Thus many of us consider it to have cultural importance and not a religious one. Even if we consider it to be a cultural thing why is the government of the one the most developed countries opposing a freedom to express and practice?

We can see a large number of Muslims residing in France suffering from the idea of banning burqa in France.

If any other entity of the community is free to express why this large number of women in France not allowed doing so?

The word “parda” might mean different to different people but in short it is not inequality between men and women rather it shows the respect for women in Islam. We as Muslims all agree that a woman is not a commodity to exploit and disgrace rather she is a symbol of respect and honor.
