Despite the fact that earth scientists understand the mechanism by which earthquakes can take place, they are losing faith in their ability to predict such disasters.

Glorious Qur'an emphasizes the fact that nothing happens in the universe without the knowledge, will and wisdom of the Creator. Earthquakes - like many other natural disasters - are part and parcel of the Divine plan for punishing the ill - doers trying the pious ones, and teaching the saved individuals the lesson of their lives. Unless taken in this context, human beings will never learn from their own mistakes or even from the mistakes of others. Understanding the mechanisms by which earthquakes take place and measuring both their intensities and magnitudes cannot help in their prediction. The only way of avoiding this and other disasters is heeding the Creator and living according to His guidance.

The word "earthquake" is mentioned twice in the Glorious Qur'an, indicating "The Last Hour Quake" which is much more devastating than all the earthquakes that have affected and will affect our plant throughout its long history. The Glorious Qur'an reads:

"O mankind! Fear your Lord and be dutiful to Him! Verily, the earthquake of the Hour (of Judgment) is a terrible thing. The Day you see it, every nursing mother will forget her nursling, and every pregnant one will drop her load, and you shall see mankind as in a drunken state, yet they will not be drunken, but severe will be the Torment of Allah. "

(Surat Al-Hajj (The Pilgrimage) :1-2)

In the same context, the Glorious Qur'an also reads:

"When the earth is shaken with its (final) earthquake. And when the earth throws out its burdens. And man will say:" What is the matter with it? "That Day it will declare its information (about all that happened over it of good or evil). Because your Lord will inspire it. That Day mankind will proceed in scattered groups that they may be shown their deeds. So whosoever does good equal to the weight of an atom (or a small ant) shall see it. And whosoever does evil equal to the weight of an atom (or a small ant) shall see it. "

(Surat Az-Zalzalah (The Earthquake) :1-8)

Present-day earthquakes are mentioned in the Glorious Qur'an as forces that destroy foundations of buildings and hence cause their destruction, or cause rifting of the earth and swallowing the rifted part with its inhabitants. The Qur'an reads:

"Those before them indeed plotted, but Allah struck at the foundation of their building, and then the roof fell down upon them, from above them, and the torment overtook them from directions they did not perceive."

(Surat An-Nahl (The Bees): 26)

I can not find a more precise description for earthquakes than the above mentioned verse, which outlines the reason behind it simply as plotting and contriving against the will and the way of the Creator.

And in the same chapter we read an emphasis on this conclusion as the Qur'an reads:

"Do then those who devise evil plots feel secure that Allah will not sink them into the earth, or that the torment will not seize them from directions they perceive not?"

(Surat An-Nahl (The Bees): 45)

From the previous two verses we can see clearly that the main reason behind punishment with earthquakes is plotting against the way of Allah and devising evil deeds against individuals or against humanity at large. The Glorious Qur'an repeatedly emphasizes the fact that earthquakes, rifting, tsunamis, Hurricanes, (or Typhoons), Cyclones Tropical Storms, Tropical Depressions and other natural disasters were and still are ways of expressing the wrath of the Creator against ill-doers of His creation. If innocent individuals are caught in the middle of this way of punishment, Allah will resurrect them according to their intentions and will reward them amply. The Inimitable Qur'an reads:

"Do you then feel secure that He will not cause a side of the land to swallow you up, or that He will not send against you a violent sand-storm? Then, you shall find no Wakil (guardian - one to guard you from the torment). "

(Surat Al-Isra (The Journey by Nights): 68)

The Qur'an emphasizes the fact that earthquakes were among other forms of punishment of previous deviators and ill-doers by saying:

"So We punished each (of them) for his sins; of them were some on whom We sent Hasib (a violent wind with shower of stones) (as the people of Lut (Lot)), and of them were some who were overtaken by As-Saihah (torment - awful cry. (as Thamud or Shu'aib's people)), and of them were some whom We caused the earth to swallow (as Qar'an (Korah)), and of them were some whom We drowned (as the people of Nuh (Noah), or Fir'aun (Pharaoh) and his people). It was not Allah Who wronged them, but they wronged themselves. "

(Surat Al-'Ankabut (The Spider): 40)

The Glorious Qur'an also makes earthquakes together with other natural disasters a constant threat to those who commit evil deeds and persistently violate the Divine guidance by saying:

"Or do you feel secure that He, Who is over the heaven (Allah), will not send against you a violent whirlwind? Then you shall know how (terrible) has been My Warning? And indeed those before them belied (the Messengers of Allah), then how terrible was My denial (punishment)? ".

(Surat Al-Mulk (Dominion) :17-18)

Geologically speaking, rifting is a process by which a long, narrow continental through that is bounded by normal faults is formed. It is a grabbed of regional extent, and marks a zone of the Earth's surface along which the entire thickness of the lithosphere has ruptured under extension.

Indeed, the attempt to understand the mechanisms by which an earthquake takes place and the different types of seismic waves accompanying them, to classify earthquakes and to produce schemes for measuring both their intensities and magnitudes is a wonderful exercise. And what is more wonderful are the procedures of trying to predict earthquakes, and the necessary precautions taken during and after the earthquake in order to avoid or minimize its dangers wherever possible. Studies towards reinforcing buildings, bridges, expressways, utility lines and other disasters engineering related projects are highly valued.

Nevertheless, this does not defy the fact that nothing happens in the universe without the knowledge, will and wisdom of the Creator. Hence, if we want to avoid earthquakes we have to follow His guidance and avoid His displeasure as much as possible.

In Islam why Sunni and Shiite are fighting each other? aren't you united by faith?

What kind of a merciful creator uses an earthquake as a punitive measure for his wayward creatures?? Sounds like an evil dictator to me!!! Teachings of all three Abrahamic Religions are the same - Judaism, Christian and Islam - We are all created by an omnipotent being/commander whom we must worship and fear or else run the risk of getting beaten and tortured for eternity in the depths of a place filled with endless lakes of fire!!!!

I believe in a God that is a truly benevolent being who neither demands nor compels us, his creations, to give him praise, but instead gives us never ending unconditional love no matter what as evidenced by the amazing and intelligent designs he established in the universe.

Learn and know the real God who is worthy of our praise and worship....

Read God versus the Bible by John Armstrong!!!

Tests for people
Of the ways of God
Cosmic fatalism
God says in the Quran(155. And certainly, We shall test you with something of fear, hunger, loss of wealth, lives and fruits, but give glad tidings to As-Sabirin (the patient ones, etc.).

156. Who, when afflicted with calamity, say: "Truly! To Allah we belong and truly, to Him we shall return.")

For the believer and the infidel
The believer
Relieve him of punishment in the afterlife
. Or expiate sins or raise grades
Or to test his faith and patience
. And the infidel is penalty
Because of hisInfidel
And disobedience

Good topic

All of you believe in GOD but competes that your religion is better than the other,thats why islams recruites christians,christian recruites islams or vice versa or everyone convinces people that your religion is better that the other...WHY it this thing happening? very ironic but all of you professess to be a GOD believer.... this is all madness....All we need is to believe in our self and respect humanity....Regardless of belief...all human being regardless of color,gender,culture,religion knows what is the meaning of love, pain, misery, happiness,sadness, death, sickness, wealth, suffering,etc....how about, we will focus on our commonality rather than what we believe in and thinks that you are far more superior because in reality we are all the same...we are born, will grow old, needs basic human needs, get sick, eventually die....Focus on yourself... First LOVE yourself!!!! examine what you really wanted to do in your life???(dreams-GoaL-Objectives), Then work on that to realized it....

To deny God is to deny the objective moral values since there will be no independent higher authority that will set the moral standards applicable for all men at all times.

happzz · « **Reply #11 on:** Jul 01, 2012, 11:29 PM »

GOD did not set moral values?

Its human who sets this values and not all moral values applies to all mankind....It varies from countries to countries, culture to culture....If you deny GOD it doesn't equate to denying the objective moral values....
