CHARACTERISTICS OF THE HOLY QUR'AN: The Holy Quran is pure and the greatest gift of Allah to humanity. It's prospect is to guide human being to the right path, to arouse mankind conscience and to illuminate the human mind. It's instructions are aimed at the general welfare of human beings. Allah speaks of the Quran as a radiant light which His servants flow be on right path and never go apart from their Lord, Allah. He says: "…..but We have made the (Quran) a light, where with we guide such Our servants as We will…." It is the actual word of Allah and it is beyond human imagination to produce anything like it. Some of the Holy Prophet's (Peace be upon Him) contemporaries were the greatest masters of Arabic language, but they could not produce anything like the Quran either in content or in style. The Quran says: "If the whole of mankind and Jinns were to gather together to produce the like of this Quran, they could not produce the like thereof, even if they backed up each other with help and support."

Before Islam, women had no identity and no individuality among the people. She was believed like something to be used and trashed afterward. Children or even slaves had better position than women. She did not have any human rights at all. Various cultures still consider a woman as a less than ordinary person and do not give her diverse essential rights what men own. In many parts, women extremely dislike this discrimination. They have decided to struggle for getting equality for themselves which regrettably yet get them away from their basic rights. Islam is the first religion who greatly respects women and acknowledges their equality with men in several aspects. With Islam, women have a position never acknowledged before. The Holy Quran has many teachings for men and women in a similar way. Islam indisputably propagates the ethical, religious and financial equality of men and women. When it comes to the divine rule of the relationship between a man and woman, Islam has given a place of dignity and respect to woman. The rules are vital for harmony, soothe, pleasure, persistence of the varieties and development. The Holy Quran highlights that ALLAH has made all creatures in couples, and so men and women have been made of the identical creatures. As it is mentioned in the Holy Quran: "He made you from an only being; then of the similar kind made its companion." (39:7) "He has made for you companions of your same kind." (42:12) Women have equal rights and responsibilities in regard of education as Prophet Muhammad PBUH said: "It is mandatory all Muslims to seek knowledge."

Islam is an all-embracing way of life. It shows us how to conduct all human activities in a sound and wholesome manner. It does not allow a hierarchy of priests or intermediaries between Allah and human beings, no far-fetched abstractions and no complicated rites and rituals. Everybody can readily understand the Quran and follow in the footsteps of the Prophet, to the best of his or her ability, assured by Allah that He will accept the deeds that each soul has the ability to offer. "On no soul does Allah place a burden greater than it can bear." [Quran 2:286] When we read the Quran or the prophetic traditions, we find instructions regarding all aspects of life: political, social, economical, material, ethical, national and international. These instructions provide us with all the details needed to perform a certain act.

The Quran itself is the biggest miracle, there is no word incompetence with the word of Quran. More than 1400 years have passed since this book came on earth.

Quran is the last heavenly revelation, it has all what we need and desire. It is indeed the complete book because it is the book of GOD (Allah).

The Muslim Culture has become a very important way of life in the lives of many. It is a life that some even live up to without realizing it is a part of their lives. Living up to the Muslim way of life involves a number of aspects in ones life; this involves the way that one eats, talks, and even dress. It is more than just the religious aspect of the religion. The Muslim society is guided by the same principles thus it cannot be said that specific standards apply to a certain area and the standards are different in another area. The book that governs their laws is one, which is the Quran. When one gets to learn Muslim culture, they will only find small traits to vary from an area to another according to the local customs of the region. The Muslim community has grown to spread all over the world. There are now the communities that speak different languages but what unites the Muslim community together is the language that they share which is the religion. It is for this that the principles that they stick to as the culture is one.

"I bear witness that there is no god (deity) but Allah and I bear witness that Muhammad is the Servant and Apostle of Allah." This is kalima that is said and believed by the Muslims. Muslims believe in the existence and attribute of Allah almighty. He believes that Allah has power and control over everything in the universe. He created the universe made creatures to fill it up. Then test was placed for the creatures till the time they were on earth. Then he sent messengers to guide the mankind.

Islam is one of the largest religions of the world. It believes in one God "Allah", the life after death, resurrection and the Prophet Muhammad as the last Prophet. The teachings of Islam had been revealed to various Prophets starting with Adams, but it was made perfect and complete over Prophet Muhammad through the revelation of the Holy Quran. Islam is a peaceful universal religion as it preaches the message of peace and brotherhood. However, unfortunately, today Islam is known as the religion of terrorism around the western world, especially in USA and Europe. The question that should be posed, here, is who is to blame for portraying such a bad image of the religion Islam? There is no doubt that Al-Qaeda and Taliban; these so-called Muslims are among the main reasons behind smearing the reputation of Islam. They are settled in the area of Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan. These terrorists kill many innocent people every day. They launch many suicidal attacks in the name of Jihad, killing thousands of innocent people.

Islam strictly prohibited hoarding and discourages hoarding.Allah Almighty clearly mention in Holy Quran ; 9.35. On that day, it (that hoarded wealth) will be heated in the fire of Hell and, therewith, their foreheads and their sides and their backs will be branded (and they will hear): "This is the treasure which you hoarded up for yourselves; taste now what you were busy hoarding!" يَوْمَ يُحْمَى عَلَيْهَا فِي نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ فَتُكْوَى بِهَا جِبَاهُهُمْ وَجُنوبُهُمْ وَظُهُورُهُمْ هَـذَا مَا كَنَزْتُمْ لأَنفُسِكُمْ فَذُوقُواْ مَا كُنتُمْ تَكْنِزُونَ 35. On that day, it (that hoarded wealth) will be heated in the fire of Hell and, therewith, their foreheads and their sides and their backs will be branded (and they will hear): "This is the treasure which you hoarded up for yourselves; taste now what you were busy hoarding!

Isa sa mga aral ng Islam na kailangan gawin ay ang pagmimisyon, na ito ay ang buhay ng mga apostol at mga alagad. Magturo ng pagkakaroon ng tiwala sa sariling kakayanan at tiwala sa mga turo ng Islam sa pamamagitan ng pagpapahayag, na naghahangad ang maiangat ang pananampalataya ng Muslim. kaakibat ng pagbabago ng mundo, nagkakaroon ng mas maraming daan upang tayo ay pamahagian ng mga Muslim, sa pamamagitan ng mga telepono, internet at iba pa. alinsunod sa turo ng Islam, ang isang misyonero ay nagnanais para sa lahat ng mga Muslim na mas makilala ang Diyos. Maraming rason ang maaaring magtulak sa mga Muslim sa pagtungong da'wah, tulad ng daan ng pamumuhay ng mga apostol at ng mga disipolo, da'wah na paguugali ng mga mapalad na nilalang na pamantayan ng pagiging mahusay, at pag-uugali sa buahy-pananampalataya. Sa Islam isinasaad na ang bawat Muslim ay maaaring maging tagapamahayag kung lubos niyang nauunawaan at naisasabuhay ang mga aral ng Quran, mabuti siya sa kapwa niya at hindi mapagmataas.

One of the Pillars of Islam is prayer and this is what will enable you to keep ion having faith in God. According to the Islamic faith, every Muslim from all over the globe needs to practice the prayer rituals every day. They need to pray five times a day during the listed times. The five prayers are different and one needs to know the procedure they will use when they are praying. Before one starts to pray, they are required to do the religious cleansing with water, place the mat in the direction facing Mecca and they will start the prayers. Some people do it at home and others in the office and some in the mosque. You need to find the right place that you will use to conduct these prayers. It is important for each Muslim to honor and practice these praying rituals. Another of the Pillars of Islam is the declaration of the fait. This is the strongest of all the Pillars of Islam and it all starts with the decoration that you are a Muslim. If you do not declare that you are a Muslim, it means that you are not a believers. On the other hand, all these who declare that they are Muslims need to follow the teachings of Allah and this is indicated in the Quran. Every Muslim needs to testify that they believe in Allah and they will honor the deeds and the virtues of the Islamic faith. It all starts with believe and then one will end up honoring the other Pillars of Islam.

Muslims believe that the Qu'ran was revelaed to Muhammad on a tajweed way, that is perfectly and without error. Islam history explains that the prophet was not able to read, and has to memorize the entire Qu'ran message as revealed by an angel called Jibreel. Later on, he revealed it in the same way to his close friends, and thereafter, to all those who were coverted to Islam at the time. Therefore, Islam perpetuated a tradition of oral learning of the Qu'ran. This rule is generally recommended when it comes to learn tajweed nowadays: the oral learning is a must for all muslim fellows. However, this rule is not applicable within some muslim communities for two or three reasons.
