Preface
the real Lord of the worlds and who will send rain from
the sky and grown grains from the earth which you eat as
your food. In the sky, the sun and the moon are all under
His control and power. In the whole world, His kingdom
is there, and He is a king in it, and you should not
worship the sun and the moon, but worship Allah alone
and who made all of them for you. If you worship any
others, so they are not your gods, and they are also
slaves of Allah, and for them in the earth and in the sky,
there is no little kingdom of them, nor are they partners
in the kingdom of the earth and the sky of Allah, and who
will give you life and give you sustenance, and who will
also give you life after death? Then how and why are you
wondering where it is not known? And why are you not
accepting Him as your Sustainer and God, and why are
you not accepting His religion of Islam.?“
The religion of Islam is not a new religion, but it is a very
old religion, and for it all the prophets of Allah have given
its teachings that worship only Allah and nobody is not a
partner in His worship.
If you think that your god and goddess are only your
lords, then for them present proof and any old research
book or such knowledge that proves it. Otherwise, you
should worship such a personality who created you, and
Allah also created the people before you. And who laid

Allah that was given life to the man with a drop of sperm
and then whether He could not give rebirth the man,
indeed, He can give life again to mankind in the other
world.
The man wants continuous changes in his life, and he
needs to adopt the latest new methods and ways. If his
forefathers and ancestors used to wear shirts and
pajamas, then now he will wear shirts and trousers, and
if his forefathers and ancestors used to walk by foot or
used to travel with horses, but now he used to travel by
using the car or on the scooter. But in the name of
religion, Satan will deceive the man into believing that
the religion of the forefathers and ancestors, which will
be even older, and even it will not be understood, so do
not leave it. Because our forefathers and ancestors were
in this religion. Allah said, “In the past time there came
many messengers of Allah in the world and who said to
the persons you should worship Allah and who is alone
and follow His religion of Islam, which is liked by Him.”
And they replied, “Whether we should worship only
Allah, and it means gods and goddesses to whom our
forefathers and ancestors used to worship them, and we
should leave them upon your saying.” The Messenger
and prophets of Allah told them is there any proof or
certification is there and which is available to you, and

The End.
