"Al-Amal" Organized Cultural-Educational Action for Women

On April, 26th, in the Donetsk Islamic Cultural Centre the female department of Organization "Al-Amal" held for all willing thematic lectures.

The first lecture was devoted to the history of the Palestinian question. The Holy Land, pain in the eyes of old men and children. Belief and unity of Islamic Ummah is a core which protected for many centuries not only souls of Muslims, but also their lands. When we allowed contention to divide us, it led to bitter and irreparable consequences. History of Palestine is a history of grief and sadness. Could we learn to avoid the same errors, not to yield to provocations and not to destroy ourselves from within? In this the basic sense consists.

Interesting for the present was the lecture about the names of Allah. Allah is just one of Names of the Only God – the Creator of everything. One of the bases of Muslim monotheism is recognition of names and qualities of the Supreme which are mentioned in the Holy Quran and Sunnah. At the same time the Quranic language of description of Allah always stays in analogy sphere, trying to keep together similarity and dissimilarity to the world simultaneously. The reason of it is that people have no other way of natural knowledge of Allah, except as reflexions over existing in the universe things.

The last from the considered themes about the meaning of life gave the ground for understanding that the sense is some kind of the vital program reached by means of purposes, and the purposes by the ways to sense achievement. The person wishes to realize, what great sense his present life has for the future. The concept of meaning of life for everyone is identified with the higher degree of clemency, i.e. to what it would be necessary to aspire. Proceeding from that can be understood all human activity: the person lives and works for the good of himself and for creation of worthy conditions of existence on this earth.
