Preface - Islam A Confession

This paper is a confession, a testimony of an ordinary person who is looking for truth. Then he have found that Islam is the truth. Islam through the Prophet teachings is an attitude to focus on objective, to use best method, to meet the best quality and on time. Who knows all of these? Only God knows. So by surrendering to God, we will be guided. To ensure that we are properly guided, we use Quran and the Prophets teachings.

Quran describes God, the attitude of the whole human being, science, history and so on. It is truly natural that Quran brought by Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him (pbuh) is for the world (earth) since all life events are taking place on Earth. Quran said that the Prophet Muhammad was sent to all humankind as expressed in QS Saba’ chapter 34 verse 28, and to grace the worlds as mentioned in QS Al Anbiya’ chapter 21 verse 107. All because of God compassion to us. QS Al An'aam chapter 6 verse 12: “He has set up His compassion.”

As an ordinary person, who have just use our love to God and lack of understanding have found Islam is the truth. So Islam should uniting the world. If we devide the religion then we will be boner, because according to Quran God called anyone who devide religion into several groups and each group proud to it, then they will be unforgivable by God, as mentioned in QS Ar Ruum chapter 30 verse 32. We should be ashamed when we devide religion. We should also believe to the books before the Quran was revealed (QS Al Baqarah chapter 2 verse 4).  We should enter Islam in its entirety as in QS Al Baqarah chapter 2 verse 208. Realize, that no one was able to explain who God is, only Quran can explain. God’s name is Allah.

Quran is a benefit for the existence of the Earth, therefore with humble and love God is our medium to know God and trying to annihilation. We found that the world should understand Islam.

Quran brought by Prophet Mohammed (pbuh) is to live in the world and in the hereafter for the entire human being. Quran contains the amazing natural science, also his teachings still used until today, the consciousness on earth that should be implemented.

As an ordinary person we have just understand that Quran was composed of more than 16 chapters. Knowing one chapter have made us so proud of.
