The Qur'an And The Computer - Sheikh Ahmed Deedat

The Qur'an And The Computer - Sheikh Ahmed Deedat
This lecture was delivered to the students of the Natal Computer College at Gandhi Hall on 26/04/91.
Sheikh Ahmed Deedat:
In 1986, the King Faisal Foundation awarded the King Faisal International Prize for SERVICE TO ISLAM, to a South African who is more or better known than many dignitaries in their own countries. This was the first time that this prestigious award has been awarded to a South African. The recipient of this award was a man totally dedicated to his faith and its propagation and who was not afraid to challenge any one to a debate to settle once and for all the matter, who has the good news right? He was none other than Sheikh Ahmed Deedat, reverently known and called UNCLE by those who hold him in high esteem and admiration.
The award came after a lifetime of struggle to propagate Islam and to defend Islam against the onslaught of the missionaries. Finally, he was given recognition by the international Muslim community that he deserved and focused more sharply the attention of the Muslim world on the most important aspect of his work, the challenge to propagate Islam. This was his life long ambition to focus the Muslim world's attention and resources on the propagation of Islam, and at last he succeeded. What a moment of jubilation, achievement and personal gratification for Sheikh Deedat the award was, a turning point in his life.
Sheikh Deedat did not have much formal schooling, but he was self-taught through experience and a penchant for reading, debating, discussion, and a profound sense of commitment to a mission and goal. He was driven and goal oriented. He was focused and never let up until the job was done. He was sharp, perceptive, forthright, fiery, and daring in his challenge of those whom he debated, particularly against those who equal his missionary zeal and sense of audacity. Formal schooling did not destroy his creative prowess, his tenacity, ambition, drive, and sheer daring to swim upstream.
Sheikh Deedat was more a scholar of the Bible than the Qur'an, and was more familiar and adroit with its teachings. He had an insight and perspective of the Bible which made many Christians he came into contact with rethink and re-examine their faith, particularly those aspects of the Bible and the Qur'an that deal with the divine mission and life of Prophet Jesus.
On May 3, 1996, Sheikh Ahmed Deedat suffered a stroke which left him paralyzed from the neck down, and also meant that he could no longer speak or swallow. He was flown to a hospital in Riyadh, where he was taught to communicate through a series of eye-movements. He spent the last nine years of his life in a bed in his home in Verulam, South Africa, encouraging people to engage in da'wah. He continued to receive hundreds of letters of support from around the world. During these years, rumors spread throughout the Internet that he was already dead, and even some websites that contained his pamphlets mentioned as early as 2002 that he was dead.
On August 8, 2005, Ahmed Deedat finally succumbed to his prolonged illness and died at his home in Trevennen Road, Verulam in the province of KwaZulu Natal.

For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.[Matthew 5:20] And when you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against any: that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.[Mark 11:25] And he said unto him, Why do you call me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if you will enter into life, keep the commandments.[Matthew 19:17]

since You Worship the Creation and the Creator,Brother Honestly You Can't Prove the Definition of Christianity, How in the World You Can define Islam Can Be False? Uh Yea Sure Your Own Lie Maybe. May GOD Almighty Show You The Right way,Amen

[@obeq3q4pz0]

Hmmm..Quoran and computer - how interesting. Has Allah got a twitter amount, e-mail address or a face page? Is he computer literate? What about MO?

[@marifnoor]

God almighty has given people free will, so that he can read, research and then justify his own decision, for which he will be questioned on the day of the judgement. Out of ignorance, arrogance and prejudice, some people still don’t bother and remain misguided. Before blaming Deedat, Zakir Naik or anybody else, and becoming an Islamophobic, you should read the Quran for yourself with an open mind from cover to cover in context and ask for a friendly dialogue with some practicing Muslims to learn more if you’ve any further questions. A genuine Muslim will always be there to answer your questions and help you understand better. Hostility and hatred will only cause you the wrath of the almighty and you will be the looser at the end and end up in hell fire but if you choose the righteous path, you’ll be guided by the will of the God almighty Allah and enter the ever lasting paradise. Choice is yours to make my brother! Relax and ponder upon your deluded actions in this world, which will decide your ultimate destination in the life after death. But if you’re an atheist or an agnostic, then have a dialogue with believers and find out the reasons why you should worship the God instead of your desire, scientists, or celebrities! The knowledge and information are available for people who search for the truth but for the ignorants, it’s only humiliation and shameful ending!

One thing that Muslim Moon God can not do is to curtail the freedom of expression that Computer and the Internet give to the ordinary people. Computer and the Internet has the power to challenge against religious oppression, hypocrisy, bigotry, and Sharia Law.

[@irfanullah007]

anoile asetytowe Computer and inter has no power to challenge anything on its self but its the data and software to produce out put , loaded by a man (Can be either good man or an evil).

[@08halit]

Moon god is from christianity.. i bet you dont know what sharia means,,can you explain it without looking it upp on your computer.

Given a choice between the Quoran and the Computer, I prefer the computer. Quorun is an outdated 7th century invention. The computer is modern, and looks towards the future. Just the opposite of what Quorun does.

[@mohammedyaseen9419]

Even though the Quran was revealed 1400 years ago it has many signs for the people it speaks about gravity , the bigbang ,the spherical shape of earth , different stages of embryo,about the two different types of seas ,it speaks about the deep roots of mountains ,and on and on which science has discovered recently . It is much forward than science

[@abed7922]

Computer work with algorithms or Sheikh Al-khawaris. He is the Muslim who his invention is named after him also inspired by the science of the Quran. You are the product of islam you just don’t know it
