Individual Reformation vs Collective Reformation



   
We have seen in the article http://secondriseofislam.blogspot.com/2011/04/aqamat-e-deen.html and  http://secondriseofislam.blogspot.com/2015/12/muslim-ummah-and-methodology-of-rising.html that addressee of every responsibility assigned in the Quran, except such  responsibilities which are exclusively assigned to our Nabi (s.a.w.w), has been mentioned in plural form; it means that every responsibility assigned in the Quran is individual as well as collective in its nature. In fact, boththese responsibilities reinforce each other; the execution of individual responsibilities lead us to execute collective responsibilities, and execution of collective responsibilities make us execute individual responsibilities. The first phase of every collective deed is the individual deed; when the individual deeds are institutionalized, collective phase/deed is completed. Similarly when the collective deeds are institutionalized, they make the individuals to execute their individual deeds. The difference between individual and collective deed is that individual deed is compensated individually whereas a collective deed is compensated collectively. In collective deed, contribution of every individual is not essentially required; similarly reward and penalty of collective deed is not confined to individuals which contribute to collective deed.
Though individual deeds and collective deeds reinforce each other, they can be mutually exclusively performed. Though both kinds of deeds have to be performed, individual deeds can be performed without performing collective deeds; similarly, collective deeds can be performed without making every individual perform his/her individual deeds. Actually implications of these two types of deeds are entirely different; individual deeds are to be compensated in the world Hereafter; but collective deeds are to be compensated in this world only. The rise and fall of nations is based on collective deeds of nations; it is not based on individual deeds (for details pls. see http://secondriseofislam.blogspot.com/2015/12/muslim-ummah-and-methodology-of-rising.html).
We can see western civilization is dominating Muslims’ civilization at present, though westerners seem to be no better than us in terms of individual morality. Actually western civilization is dominating Muslims’ civilization due to their social systems which are more Islamic in their color and nature than the social systems adopted by the Muslims; the western nations are dominating Muslim nations due to their collective deeds. As for as Muslims are concerned, they have adopted the same political and economic systems which have been adopted by the western nations- in terms of political and economic systems, Muslims are as bad as are western nations; but the social systems adopted by Muslims are worse than those adopted by the western nations which have adopted such social systems which are closer to Islam than those adopted by the Muslims. The social systems adopted by the western nations ensure there should be justice through judicial system; there should be protection of human rights and human freedoms- e.g. consumers’ rights’ children’s rights, sellers’ rights, old people’s rights, un-employed peoples’s rights, minimum livelihood rights, educational rights, health care rights, freedom of speech  etc. The Muslims would start rising when the collective systems adopted by them would be closer to Islam than the collective systems adopted by the western nations.
In order to rise in the comity of nations, Muslims have to diagnose  correctly the reasons of their downfall. According to one view, the reason of Muslims’ downfall is moral decline at individual level; accordingly the remedy which is suggested is there should be a widespread movement aiming at individual reformation so that such movement may morally reform, if not all people, at least majority of people. As we have discussed above, this diagnosis and suggested remedy are not correct because rise and fall of a nation is based on its collective deeds; it is not based on individual deeds.
Another view is that an armed struggle should be initiated so that the present regime may be overthrown and state apparatus may be captured. Such a view may also not be supported in most of the cases because, in most of the cases, armed struggle to topple down the present regime is not permissible (for details pls. see http://secondriseofislam.blogspot.com/2015/01/enforcement-of-islam-vs-propagation-of_17.html).
Both views mentioned above are extremist views. To say that an Islamic state and society cannot be established without reforming moral character of majority of the people is as much extremist in its nature as is  saying that Islamic state and society may be established, in all cases, through armed struggle. In fact both these views take us away from the goal of establishment of a true Islamic society and state.
A true Islamic state and society may be established by installing Islamic institutions/systems in the society. For the purpose, there is no need to train majority of the people; institution building is a specialized job. So only required number of persons are needed to be trained. Simultaneously social cum political agitation may be launched so that way may be paved for installing Islamic institutions, once the required number of expert persons have become available. It may be appreciated  peoples’ support is required to launch successful social cum political agitation but it is not necessary to participate in the political process for the purpose. People’s support can be obtained peacefully by convincing the people through preaching, education, training, organization and political agitation. It is not necessary to convince the whole society for the purpose; but the required number of people  need to be convinced. Every Muslim society may start the process of installation of Islamic systems gradually in their respective society. If people’s support enables the Muslims in any Muslim society to obtain political power, the process of Islamization of Muslim society may be faster. But an attempt to grab political power without required number of people’s support would lead to such internal conflicts which would ultimately weaken the Muslims society against the non-Muslims; therefore such kind of attempt is not permissible.

It may also be appreciated that mustering peoples’ support is something different from reforming peoples’ moral characters. In the process of gathering peoples’ support, people are required to be convinced to support a cause which suits people’s own interests; this process is different from the process of moral purgation and purification of people. The author is not opposing the idea of individual reformation of people; there is no second opinion that individual reformation facilitates collective reformation, as has been mentioned above. The author is opposing the view that individual reformation-aiming at moral purgation of majority people- is essential for collective reformation. Quran sys:
 That is because Allah would not change a favor which He had bestowed upon a nation until they change what is within them. And indeed, Allah is Hearing and Knowing” (al-anfal-53).
“…Indeed, Allah will not change the condition of a nation until they change what is within them (their deeds). And when Allah intends for a people ill, there is no repelling it. And there is not for them besides Him any patron” (al-ra,d-11) .
In both these above mentioned verses, Allah is stating about conditions of a nation; in other words Allah is stating about collective conditions of people; not individual conditions of people.
According to one hadith, moral character of the people is reflected in the moral character of their ruler. Of course, it is so; but a bad ruler may be forced to undertake good collective deeds without reforming his individual moral character.  Secondly this hadith may also be interpreted as mentioning about collective character of people, instead of individual character of people.
We may conclude that collective reformation of a nation is not necessarily based on individual reformation of people. Both these processes, though reinforce each other, can be undertaken exclusively of each other. The rise and fall of a nation is based on collective conditions/ deeds of a nation; in order to rise in the comity of nations, Muslims have to undertake collective reformation. As collective reformation is reflected through collective systems, Muslims need to install Islamic institutions in their respective societies, instead of pursuing individual’s moral reformation as a first stage. Most importantly, Muslims societies have to strengthen mutual unity so that what Islamization they would have achieved in their respective societies may be protected from foreign adverse interference (for details pls. see http://secondriseofislam.blogspot.com/2014/04/muslim-millat-and-pakistans-role-in.html).

The Relationship between Dark Matter and Time and Space



   
We have already seen in the articles
 http://secondriseofislam.blogspot.com/2013/04/universe-travel-within-mans-life-span.html that contraction/expansion of space actually means contraction/expansion of Dark Matter. In other words gradual contraction of time on earth as we move from 1st sky to upper skies is due to gradual contraction of Dark Matter as we move from the seventh sky to first sky. In other words, gradual expansion of time- as we move from first sky to upper skies- which results in gradually quicker happening of events on earth is due to gradually more expansion of Dark Matter as we move from first sky to upper skies.
This is the special arrangement made by Allah for man to travel through this universe within man’s life span. This special arrangement provides for such paths which run through such a low density Dark Matter space which may reduce (up to 18250000 times) a time required for an event to happen on earth.  Man, treading upon such low density Dark Matter paths, would be able to travel through galaxies within a few years- the galaxies which according to earth time require billions of years to be traversed through.

This relationship between Dark Matter and Time and Space has become more likely to be proved with the discovery of Gravitational Waves a few days back. The scientists say they have detected gravitational waves which impact fabric of Space and Time; these gravitational waves are actually said to be sent through fabric of Space and Time. In other words, these gravitational waves may expand as well as contract Space and Time (just as water waves can expand as well as contract water surface).
In the article http://secondriseofislam.blogspot.com/2013/02/origin-of-universe-and-dark-matter.html and http://secondriseofislam.blogspot.com/2016/02/dark-matter-keeps-everything-alive.html, as has been mentioned above, we have seen that contraction/ expansion of space actually means contraction/expansion of Dark Matter.

This discovery of Gravitational Waves would probably lead to confirmation of relationship between Dark Matter and Time and Space, as has been explained by me in above mentioned articles.

Big Bang is still Continuing



                   
We have already seen in the article http://secondriseofislam.blogspot.com/2013/02/origin-of-universe-and-dark-matter.html that Allah has created ‘darkness’ and ‘the light’. We know that light is a form of matter; this form of matter was released during Big Bang and was gradually solidified into the form of universe as we find it today; this form of matter may be called Luminous Matter; all the rest of matter may be called ‘Dark Matter’ which is spread everywhere in the space since before Big Bang. The matter contained in the celestial bodies/universe-making out of Big Bang- may be called ‘Luminous Matter’, because it is visible; and the matter contained in the space (even before Big Bang) may be called ‘Dark Matter’, because it is invisible.
In the article http://secondriseofislam.blogspot.com/2016/02/dark-matter-keeps-everything-alive.html#links we have seen that gravitational waves are being produced since Big Bang. The explosion which we call Big Bang is not only the eruption of energy which solidified latter in the form of luminous universe, as we find it today, but also eruption of energy which flowed through Dark Matter in the form of gravitational waves. There may be two Big Bangs- the first resulted in sending gravitational waves through Dark Matter, and the second resulted in   formation of luminous matter. These gravitational waves are spread everywhere in the space; they are being constantly produced and passing through every smallest particle and every largest celestial body constantly. By passing through every material entity, these gravitational waves are not only throbbing material entities bur also charging material entities so that material entities can carry out their activities. In nutshell, the gravitational waves make every material thing alive, and gravitational waves keep everything alive.
If these gravitational waves are being constantly produced since Big Bang and are result of Big Bang; and if these gravitational waves- by passing through material things- make every material thing alive, and keep every material thing alive, it means Big Bang is still continuing.

Dark Matter Keeps Everything Alive



                 
Every material entity in this universe is alive. When Allah wills any material thing keep alive, He does so through Dark Matter; when Allah wills any material thing die away, He does so through Dark Matter. Dark matter keeps every living material entity throbbing in this universe; dark matter keeps every material entity alive. When a material entity stops throbbing, it is decomposed/ degenerated by dark matter. In other words, it is dark matter which keeps every material thing alive, and which makes every material thing die away.

We have already seen in the article http://secondriseofislam.blogspot.com/2012/07/law-of-gravity-and-quran.html that, according to Quran, gravity is not something which lies in the mass of a body; rather it is something which is thrown down onto the earth from above the earth. Now this fact has been proved a few days back through discovery of gravitational waves coming from the universe to the earth; this scientific experiment has been explained in the following video:
This video explains that when gravitational waves are sent through fabric of space and time, they cause ripples in the fabric of space and time. When these ripples pass through any material thing, they cause such material thing throbbing, as earth is throbbing in this video. 

As has been earlier mentioned in the article http://secondriseofislam.blogspot.com/2012/07/law-of-gravity-and-quran.html that Einstein tried to explain gravity in terms of curved space which leads everything to fall onto the earth. As a bid to explain why material bodies falling down to earth are accelerated, as they come nearer to the earth, he conceived that it happens so due to distorted fabric of space and time. Now discovery of gravitational waves may better explain accelerated motion of material bodies falling onto the earth.   We may conceive the gravitational waves start charging such falling bodies and consequently the falling bodies are accelerated as they come closer to the earth.
Based on this discovery of gravitational waves, we may conceive throbbing of material bodies when gravitational waves pass through such material bodies is not like to jolt something; rather it is just like throbbing of human heart which expands and contracts. 

We know that space passes through every smallest bit of this universe, and we also know that material bodies entering gravitational sphere of every celestial body fall with accelerated speed onto surface of such celestial body. It means phenomenon of penetrating gravitational waves is common to all celestial bodies. In other words, gravitational waves are spread everywhere in the space; they are being constantly produced and passing through every smallest particle and every largest celestial body constantly. By passing through every material entity, these gravitational waves are not only throbbing material entities bur also charging material entities so that material entities can carry out their activities. In nutshell, the gravitational waves make every material thing alive, and gravitational waves keep everything alive.
One challenging question we are facing is how human heart starts throbbing. We know human brain cannot function without a throbbing heart; when heart throbs, blood is transported to the brain; without supply of blood, human brain cannot function and becomes dead. It means throbbing of human heart has to precede the functioning of human brain. We are told heart has its own electrical system which initiates its throbbing; but the question is how this electrical system automatically starts working. The gravitational waves may be an answer; it may be gravitational waves which start throbbing of human heart. It also explains why human body expires; when heart is working, what does make human body expire. Again the answer may be gravitational waves which keep human body alive through charging it, and when charging is discontinued, human body expires. When human body expires, human conscious/ soul moves to another world for compensation of its deeds. We have seen already human conscious is human soul (for details pls. see  http://secondriseofislam.blogspot.com/2015/10/soul-conscious-and-its-training.html).
Now the question arises what is nature of space and time? If gravitational waves can cause ripples in the fabric of space and time, we are forced to believe that space is not something empty; ripples can be produced only in a material body. We have seen in the articles  http://secondriseofislam.blogspot.com/2013/04/nature-of-space-and-dark-matter.html,  http://secondriseofislam.blogspot.com/2013/04/implications-of-dark-matter.html, and
http://secondriseofislam.blogspot.com/2013/02/origin-of-universe-and-dark-matter.html that space is not empty; it has dark matter. Allah has created ‘darkness’ and ‘the light’. We know that light is a form of matter; this form of matter was released during Big Bang and was gradually solidified into the form of universe as we find it today; this form of matter may be called Luminous Matter; all the rest of matter may be called ‘Dark Matter’ which is spread everywhere in the space since before Big Bang. The matter contained in the celestial bodies/universe-making out of Big Bang- may be called ‘Luminous Matter’, because it is visible; and the matter contained in the space (even before Big Bang) may be called ‘Dark Matter’, because it is invisible. Actually the qualities assigned to space are qualities of Dark Matter. Dark Matter is contained by the space but space is quite different entity from the Dark Matter. Actually Space and Time are Allah’s eternal qualities; whereas Dark Matter is Allah's creation. Space and Time cannot be tinkered with. What we tinker with is not Space and Time; actually it is Dark Matter what we tinker with. (plz see for details  http://secondriseofislam.blogspot.com/2013/10/time-and-space-allahs-eternal-qualities.html). In other words, gravitational ripples which are said to be sent through the space are actually sent through the Dark Matter. Dark Matter is everywhere spread in the Space; where there is Space there is Dark Matter. It means it is Dark Matter which makes everything throbbing; it is Dark Matter which charges everything and makes everything alive. We have seen in the article  http://secondriseofislam.blogspot.com/2013/02/origin-of-universe-and-dark-matter.html that Dark Matter exists since before Big Bang; as the gravitational waves are meant to keep luminous matter alive, it means gravitational waves are being produced since Big Bang (the video mentioned above does not see origin of gravitational waves into Big Bang). The explosion which we call Big Bang is not only the eruption of energy which solidified latter in the form of luminous universe, as we find it today, but also eruption of energy which flowed through Dark Matter in the form of gravitational waves which are meant to keep luminous matter alive; there may be two Big Bangs- the first resulted in sending gravitational waves through Dark Matter, and the second resulted in   formation of luminous matter. 

In short, everything in this universe is alive. Dark Matter makes every material thing alive and keeps every material thing alive; it throbs every material thing and charges every material thing so that every material thing may perform its functions. When Allah wills a material thing alive, He does so through the Dark Matter. Similarly when Allah wills a material thing die away, He does so through dark Matter; when a material thing is intended to be died away or decomposed/degenerated, gravitational charging to such material entity through gravitational waves is discontinued, and the material entity  dies away or is decomposed/degenerated.
