Salaamu Aleykum Everyone,

This is my first post.

I emanate from Pakistan but live in the UK. I'm currently an IT consultant but was originally an Electronic Engineer.

I wanted to begin my life here with the Islamic view of how the universe was created by extracting passages from my book called 'Islam - Pure and Simple' which I'm happy to send upon request.

The Creation of the Universe


An extremely long time ago, the only thing that existed was God[1] (the Creator). There was no universe. God begins the creation of the universe from a single particle, which is split apart. The scientific[2] world, refer to this as the “Big Bang Theory”[3], where an energy source created a particle called the primary nebula or primeval atom. The tiny particle has also been referred to as the cosmic egg.

The following verse is the only Qur’anic verse, which refers to the moment of creation of the universe. It is interesting that God talks about the root ingredients at the moment of creation and also that of water as a root ingredient of the creation of all living creatures. This is indeed a verse dealing with God’s ability and power to create.

“Do not the Unbelievers see that the heavens and the earth (meaning the universe) were joined together (ratq) in one piece, then We (meaning God, the Creator) rent them asunder (fataqa) and We got every living thing out of water. Will they then not believe?”
Qur’an - Surah al-Anbiyaa (The Prophets) 21:30 See also 24:45.

[1] Moses (peace be upon him) in Hebrew called Him Eloha, Jesus (peace be upon him) in Aramaic called Him Allaha and Muhammad (peace be upon him) in Arabic called Him Allah. The name Allah is a contraction of the Arabic words ‘Al’ and ‘lah’ meaning The God. The same applies to the names Eloha and Allaha.


[2] Refer to the discoveries of people such as Alexander A. Friedmann (1888 -1925), Monsignor George Henri Lemaitre (1894 -1966), Edwin Powell Hubble (1889 -1953), George A. Gamow (1904 - 1968), Arno A. Penzias (1933 -), Robert Wilson (1936 -), Robert H. Dicke (1916 - 1997), Phillip James E. Peebles (1935 -), etc.


[3] Coined by Fred Hoyle (1915 – 2001) who was not a supporter of the Big Bang theory and called it as a casual remark in 1950.

Looks to me that Islam influenced Hinduism and that's why the same concept appears in the oldest vedic literature.

Well das had a Muslim girl freind.She would have been killed along with her family had they went ahead to mary her off to das after converting her to Sikhism.

So thats the way Women enjoy the liberty over there.

Coming to verse in Holy Kuran.It is our God Akal(Bi Fani or undistructable) and Alaih(un absorbalbe(like other 4 or 5 elements of creation go back to energy)) and Allah(whose bounty and power are never emptied).

That God only did send the Holy verse in form of Suras made up of Ayats to Rasol Akran Sal Al Lahe Salle Wa Wassalam.

As that God wants so do muslim work and so do other work as not leafe can flutter without will fo that God.Our deeds are predifended and alterd by same on the iron plates.

God is nur or visible form of energy(Amit Auj) and that energy is invisible also.

That energy does manifest in form of matter.

By the way had God been creator and not the manfester of the self,the the place where firt mater was created by God,energy which God used to create atom,the place where God stood to create,who created that all?

Good thing ben posted but we are not the unbelivers.Rather what we belive is actualy waht god let us belive.

I'd like to ask you some questions on the creation of Islam in this context: Are you familiar with the history behind the succession of the 12 Imams?
First of all, may I ask which sect you belong to. Reason why I am asking is because it is pointless to further this discussion if my answers given don't favour your particular beliefs. Because I understand that Islam has very many sects and each has its cultural and historical difference from the other sects.

Most of the bloodshed between the sects within Islam has also got to do with differences in places of worship and method of worship and whose is the correct version of the Quran. This bloodshed, I believe, is only in non-South East Asian countries because in Malaysia, such violence is unheard of.
It could be because most muslims (98%) are sunnis.

Well if das has been asked about it.


Dear Friend(Das does not know weather begum is a name or the attribute of sorrow less and Begum in our land means better half but in Sikhism it for some high things).

anyway das is aware that about the 4th Imama there is some problems with Shi's and Sunnis and as per interpetaion of Holy Kuran there are 72 formals and further more sub divisions of code which is basically one Islamic code.

Das belongs to the 73rd sect of Islam called Gurmat or what people say Sikhism.But das(Bande in farsi) has good numbers of brethern from Wahabis,Tablighis,Qadaris,Shi-as and Sunnis freternity and das parys to Allah for unity of all Momins.Amin.

Can you throw some light on the differences of opinion of the 4th Imam between Sunni and Sh'ia sect?
Are you saying that you are a sikh by name and a follower of islam in principle? If not, then what are you saying?
If you cannot clarify in simple words, then I guess I can't take anything you say seriously.

3 Imams are justified by Sunnis while not by Shias.

Coming to das's thing.

Das is Sikh by Faith(born as a Hindu) but Sikhism talks to total surrender(Saran) to God.Surreder means Islam also and one who surrernders the slef to Allah and say all deeds and controls is of Allah and no self ego left is a true Sikh.

Islam anyway talks surrender to Allah and one who does it is a Muslim(Term derived from Islam only in Arebic).

So being Sikh makes das as a Muslim.

Sorry to put things in complex way as das's presentation skills are not very good.

oops you must have got the wrong website, this is SIKH PHILOSOPHY.

So why is there an Interfaith section on this website?

Hinduism is the oldest religion. Islam has influenced hinduism on nothing. what he has written, can be read in The old testament, its nothing new, your religion did not see this, u were influenced by judaism

1. Islam is the oldest religion as the first homosapien Adam (peace be upon him) was a Muslim.

2. Hinduism is FAR removed from Islam. Hence I would not have thought that either of these religions have influenced the other.

3. Judaism was the Islam of that time i.e. submitting your will to the One God. The Torah and the Qur'an (and other scriptures) were given by Allah. However there is no verse in the corrupted version of the Torah of today that tells us of how the universe began. If there is, I'd like to know about it. In fact if there are any other scriptures that tell us how the universe began, post it. I would be interested.

I'm neither Sunni or Shia. These terms were invented after the time of Muhammad (peace be upon him).

Also try to read the tranlitration for Islamic terms.

Fact is both we and you Ie Sikhs and Muslim worship same God and faith is same Sanatan(Akali or eternal faith called Islam or Gurmat.

Just for the sake of fundamentalists ego people tend to fight that yours is Good or mine is good.

How did I do that?

2. Jews were the first to write of adam and eve. True or False!

Not a valid question. TRUE scripture comes from God not people. It was God who wrote the first scripture believed to be given to Ibrahim (peace be upon him). In case you don’t know, Ibrahim (peace be upon him) is a direct ancestor of Muhammad (peace be upon him) from the male line.

your religion wrote it over 500 years AD. True or false.
False. The Qur’an was revealed about 1400 years ago.

Christian and jews believe in adam and eve so what makes it a muslim thing. read it properly and u'll see adam and eve had no religion at that time. Adam werent circumsized was he, if he was who done it for him Eve!!!

Islam began at the time of Adam (peace be upon him). He was the first Muslim and the first Prophet and the first homosapien man. Huwwa (or Eve as you called her) was the first Muslim homosapien woman. Hence you would expect Jews\Christians to believe in Adam & Huwwa as the prophets Moses\Jesus (peace be upon them) were the Muslim prophets at there times. So there is no contradictions as you seem to be seeing them.


Who’s being disrespectful now? You seem to object to non Sikhs entering this forum! If the forum moderators don’t want me to participate, I’m happy to leave.

The order in which the Muslim prophets came and received scripture from God is as follows: -


Prophets of Allah, as Mentioned in the Qur’an

Adam (first prophet of Islam)
Idris (Enoch)
Nuh (Noah)
Hud (Heber - great great grandson of Nuh)
Salih (Shelah)
Ibrahim (Abraham)
[Received the Souhouf (the Scrolls) in Hebrew]
Isma’il (Ishmael – eldest son of Ibrahim)
Is’haq (Isaac – youngest son of Ibrahim)
Lut (Lot – nephew of Ibrahim)
Ya’qub (Jacob – son of Is’haq)
Yusuf (Joseph – second youngest son of Ya’qub)
Shu’aib (Jethro)
Ayub (Job)
Musa (Moses)
[Received the Taurat (the Torah or the Law) & the Ten Commandments both in Hebrew]
Harun (Aaron – elder brother of Musa)
Dhu’l-kifl (Ezekiel)
Dawud (David)
[Received the Zaboor (the Psalms) in Hebrew]
Suliman (Solomon – son of Dawud)
Ilias (Elias)
Al-Yasa (Elisha)
Yunus (Jonah)
Zakariyah (Zechariah)
Yahya (John – son of Zakariyah)
Isa (Jesus – son of Mary)
[Received the Injil, in Aramaic]
Muhammad (the Seal of the Prophets)
[Received the Qur’an, in Arabic]
(Peace and Allah’s blessings be upon them all)

There are some Muslims who say that this version of Holy Kuran is only 1/3rd.Anyway das is more with you that what we have is OK.

Never heard that before. What evidence do you have for that?

have a look.

Vijaydeep Singh where does this come from. Is this from the Sikh scriptures? If so, can you give me a reference or a web page giving only the English version? Thanks.
