Hey You!
Assalam Alikom wa rahmat ALLAH
Peace and Blessings be upon you
Hello Everybody
This post is somehow different, because it’ll take us in a small journey outside planet Earth, something like a Zoom Out to the whole universe, however it’ll have to Zoom In back so don’t worry you’ll be back safely to Earth.
Okay, the story is very simple: I was visiting Nabeel’s blog - Nabeel’s Cosmos - and his last post was about a video from NASA. I’d commented there, however I’d like to place it here again in a wider perspective.
Let’s start. In a previous post last year, I posted the latest images from Hubble telescope regarding the whole universe, and those images clearly define Earth in relative to the whole universe; almost a spot or smaller.
I’m not willing to discuss wither there are other creatures outside Earth or not, however I see that it’s ridiculous that Man think he’s the owner of the universe. Man will be stupid if he think so as only the owner is ALLAH (swt) - GOD - therefore everything is possible.
I’m willing to mention that it’s ridiculous how Humankind is not trying to solve their problems of misunderstanding between each other on our blue planet, Mother Earth as we study in school. I know it was from 100 years or something when we were in school [ 
]
Anyway, you may wonder what’s the relation? Very Simple: I think that one day in the future - maybe the near future - humankind will be able to live on other planets, however I wonder how we will survive their, if we still didn’t learn how to respect each other on Earth at 1st.
I’d mentioned in many articles via I-MAG Magazine before that ALLAH (swt) had created people in order that they understand each other, cooperate with each other, for the sake of welfare of Humanity via urbanising Earth, and that was the real mission Islam came with via Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) whom we call him The Teacher, and whom the Holy Qur’an described him as: Mercy upon Mankind.
Therefore, I think we should try our best to improve the situation human live today on this planet; simply because at last we are all humans, whom had been created via One and Only one, the Creator, ALLAH (swt) - or GOD as in Latin language.
On the other hand, I really don’t like this attitude which deals with judging the intentions of others from the faith point of view. In fact, this is something totally between the person and ALLAH (swt). You, me, He, She, Them, are only humans therefore it is not our mission to judge people’s intentions; rather ALLAH (swt) will judge everyone at the Day of Judgement.
Please don’t get confused between judging people according faith and judging them according to their acts + words - together - which is the only way to understand people and deal with them.
We are in the 21st century, which means humankind had survived on Earth since 2,100 year ago + 5,000 years before we start using the dates - wither Georgian or Hijri, however we are still facing major problems like Poverty, Misunderstanding, forcing applied from some Nations against the others.
Then what do you want?
I don’t think about Utopia, I know very well that it will never exist on Earth; simply because we are Humans who had the good part and the evil part. So I’m not laughing about you and say its heaven or hell; no it is just Earth. Therefore, what I’m calling for real justice to take place as much as we can, and humans try to cooperate better.
You know what? I wonder if some aliens visit Earth and see how we deal with each other, I think they will laugh at us, and then start illustrating humans in a series of comics - not necessarily 12 - about how humankind live and interact on this spot, somewhere in the universe called Earth. May be they will - or are currently? - do so. I wonder how those cartoons will looks like. [*think*]
Dreaming? Maybe, however everything had start with a dream. Hey Humanity! Wake up! It’s time to deal with our problems.
I think humanity deserves better than this, because we are supposed to be civilised, or not? Shall we wait for aliens to answer this question?

MAY PEACE BE UPON YOUR SOUL, HEART, MIND, AND BODY…ANEN.
Praise the Lord Almighty! Just yesterday, a li’l kid asked me, do you think there would be other Aliens living in the outer space? Do you think they are living the way we’re living? (i kept quiet and watched him continue…) Why is everyone disliking everyone?Will you always love me the way you do??????????????
SubhanAllah.
Well, I have been thinking about this whole thing for quiet sometime…
Is it to that limit that we don’t care?
It has to start somewhere
It has to start somehow
What better place than here
What better time than now
Humanity needs us. God help us all…
When will we start going back to our instinctive “THING”?! Life won’t go on like this… And that is for sure.
“I love to relate to the process of creation as much as the creation itself. And against popular belief, I think we live in a beautiful world only if we choose to. And this world is a very deceptive prelude to a much, much bigger after-world. And I like to think ahead.”
And talking about “the thing”, there is this brother who had this blog(http://notfa.blogspot.com/), and dissappeared all of a sudden…
HE TAUGHT ME A LOT TALKING ABOUT “THE THING”.(http://www.blogger.com/profile/15551786)
“- How big is the universe?
– Infinite.
- How do you know?
– I know because all the data indicates it’s infinite.
- But it hasn’t been proven yet.
– No. - You haven’t seen it.
–No. - How do you know for sure?
– I don’t, I just believe it.
- It’s the same with love I guess.”
–BEAUTIFUL MIND–
TALKING ABOUT “US” BROTHER MOHAMED SAID:
“People show their personality, some others show layers and layers on top of their personalities which they made in response to all the externalities (outer events) around us. Personalities as simple as I see them are the outer interface that people see you through; All Personalities are a reflection of the “self”. For how well you develop your own ”self “ means how well you can learn lessons from the externalities around you. This is why some people might go through the same tragedy and hate the world and others go through the same tragedy and love the world for it.The human “self” has tendencies to be evil or to grow more enlightened and pass beyond angels. For ones own”self” to reach high above Angels is to have your “Soul” to dominate over your own “self”. What I’ve said is there is this chain that makes a single human being. Soul?Self?Personality We know Souls are what our creator talked to and asked “2alasto Brabbekom? Fakalo Bala” souls are the only part of us that knows this answer; souls are what make all humans equal, and they all testified saying “yes” to HIM…no one said NO.For this very reason when your soul takes over your own self (in the struggle that lasts as long as you live) you become enlightened and your personality becomes a reflection of this victory of soul over self. Our own self is not constant and it struggles back, eventually for those of us struggle long enough and well enough it weakens and surrenders to the light shining throw the soul. This is the entire quest for us, who are “made of Clay to become better persons”. ?
…. We are all made of Clay. The road is long, seems impossible with all the “selves” and “personalities” running the world, some of which are close some a very faraway, just remember always to speak to the Souls, for that 1400 years ago it seemed as impossible to the single man who believed in this. Peace be upon you, and May your soul shine today, and on “the day” “

well .. I am not sure either whether there are creatures outside the earth .. I’m going to be posting something about this soon .. God created three beings, angels, humans and the Jinns .. the question is if those creates are one of them .. But also God never mentions that he didn’t create other beings.
Worst times are yet to come in human cooperation and better living standards .. Jesus will come, fight of the dajjal and then there will be peace but humans will mess up things again and hence the judgement day
it’s not justice that we need .. its mercy and forgiveness that we need.
Great post !!!

Sara & Nabeel - Guys I agree with you and I want to comment about what you both said.
I like the “layers” idea. In fact for every person we find collective layers that act together to show the final figure to the world, therefore people should understand this, and don’t deal with each other according to one layer (i.e. one perspective) only.
I also agree about this part “we live in a beautiful world only if we choose to”. In fact, even if we see bad things in the world, I think that we still live in a beautiful world because the majority of people are not bad, or are not evil. Evil is there, and good is their, however it’s our responsibility to overcome the evil side of humanity as much as we can.
Evil didn’t seem to be successful because it’s powerful; rather because the majority of good people do nothing for the welfare of humanity.
Doing a “good thing” varries from one person to another, however I believe that all of us can be useful for humanity, even if we share with small actions. That’s my concept which I’d placed as description of this blog.
On the other hand, I didn’t mean by justice that people revenge from each other; rather I mean by justice that man should understand he is not alone in this world - I mean Earth. When people understand this, I think we’ll see more cooperation between nations, and this will lead to real mercy and forgivness between people.
Simply, It’s all a matter of understanding, and we should know that Evil is very week when people cooperate. [vice versa for sure]

Salams,
For some reason, I always have believed in Aliens. I guess it was an escape from the idea that there are better beings out there than people on earth. The funny thing is that I thought I was one of them stuck here on earth. Hehehe…
I just find human nature the most complex thing on earth… It’s all from Allah and it’s there for a reason. I guess balance but I guess like a boat on an ocean, the natures swayes back and forth from good to evil and barely calm.
May Allah just enlighten all of us humans to the rightous path…
March 5th, 2006 18:35
Stellar - I agree with you. Human Nature is very complex, and this can be figured out from how everyone behave.
Every person living on Earth from those 6 billion plus - untill now in 2006 - has his/her unique personality; which is directly based on the surronding context plus his/her own way to perceive the world.
Anyway, even if we are so different from each other - or unique - however i believe that in the same time we have what I called meeting poitns; where humans can meet and interact for the welfare of Humanity.
That should be normal because we are all created by the Creator, ALLAH (swt), however we didn’t understand this yet.
Therefore, we should understand that we are unique, and respect each other, and find ways to interact.
Aliens: - I can’t say they are there and can’t deny it too, however; why not?!
