I-Religion

In this page, i will tel you what is religion according what i study as a moslem in Indonesia and based on Koran. So, Islam is one of few religions in this earth. Have you ever asked yourself what is the meaning of religion?

        "Religion is the guidence, base line, or  reference for human to be with God"

 In the past, before the holybook was available like nowadays, religion were meant to be doing every good things in every time. Until the era of Jew whom Musa the messenger or Moses stood the holybook of Taurat was created. After that, the era was continued into Daud the meesenger or David whom introduced the religion with Zabur Holybook. Then, it comes Isa Almasih the messenger or we known as Jesus Christ who informed the religion witb Injil holybook, or known as Bible. And finally the Mecca came with a very cadastrophic condition that time. Until the Prophet Mohammad was on duty to brought the last holybook which is Koran for enlightning all of human race (3:138). As a moslem there is one of six beliefs guidence which is faith in God's holybooks. This mean, as a moslem we should learn religions from every aspect because the God messages and messenger stories which weshould learn is written in Zabur, Taurat, Injil, and Koran.

Now, what is islam and moslem means?

"Islam means safe and prosper and moslem means surrender themself for the islam"

In this definition, it can be explained that the group who claim to be moslem but make some people feel unsafe, therefore they cannot be said they doin what is moslem should have doin. Here, we can state that, not all every person can state they are a good moslem if the habit, ego, behaviour, and attitude was not good. Now, in Indonesia which country has the most molem in the world is asked with so many questions i think.

First, how we can read koran which is written in arabic? Since childhood, usually we got extra class outside public or private school to learn reading arabic. It called Taman Pendidikan Quran or Koran Education School. Usually we learned about twice a week with 2 hours a day in the class. The difficulty to read arabic is gradual until we can read the arabic which is written in koran in the end.

Second, so if you can read koran, do you exactly know the meaning of the arabic letters? Unfortunately no, we as indonesian using bahasa in our daily life and the letter we use is romaji. Therefore we cannot translate directly from arabic into Bahasa.

Third, so why koran was written in Arabic? This happened because the prophet Muhammad was born in Mecca where they using arabic letter to be written.  It will be very awkward if the Koran was created with english or french languange, they must be not understand (12:1-2) and (41:44).

44. Had We made it a Quran in a foreign language, they would have said, “If only its verses were made clear.” Non-Arabic and an Arab? Say, “For those who believe, it is guidance and healing. But as for those who do not believe: there is heaviness in their ears, and it is blindness for them. These are being called from a distant place.”

Fourth, then what exactly can you get with reading koran if ypu do not kmow what it means? Actually we can learn from its translation in Bahasa therefore it will make us easier to get explanation from Koran. (44:58).
