Subject: [Masjid Tucson] Submission weekly reminder

In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Peace be upon you,

Do you want to be a king or queen who makes a positive difference in the world, by God's leave?

Don't think you can? God willing, you can, and right now. To get the job you only need to sincerely tell the Lord of the universe that you want to serve Him in making a difference.

     God's Promise Kings and Queens on Earth
[Quran 24:55] GOD promises those among you who believe and lead a righteous life, that He will make them sovereigns on earth, as He did for those before them, and will establish for them the religion He has chosen for them, and will substitute peace and security for them in place of fear. All this because they worship Me alone; they never set up any idols beside Me. Those who disbelieve after this are the truly wicked.


Remember, a submitter is the only kind of sovereign who can help bring real happiness to people. Real change comes by choice from within, not from forcing anyone. You invite people to God's path (Quran 16:125) keeping in mind that eventually only God guides. God is the One who will bring throngs to embrace His religion (Quran 110:1-3). We can either be part of that process, or we can watch it happen without us.

     How to Spread God's Message
[Quran 16:125] You shall invite to the path of your Lord with wisdom and kind enlightenment, and debate with them in the best possible manner. Your Lord knows best who has strayed from His path, and He knows best who are the guided ones.

[Quran 110:1-3] When triumph comes from GOD, and victory.
 You will see the people embracing GOD's religion in throngs.
 You shall glorify and praise your Lord, and implore Him for forgiveness. He is the Redeemer.
*110:1-3 This last sura, chronologically, consists of 19 Arabic words (see 96:1), and the first verse consists of 19 letters. This indicates that this generation of believers shall attain the promised victory. Submission (true Islam) will prevail throughout the world (48:28).


It can begin with a small step forward. God gave us the computer (Quran 27:82) and the technology to reach all corners of the world. Can we use these resources to inform the world of God's greatness, His mercy, His generosity, and fantastic system of happiness and eternal life in a loving, peaceful, non-threatening way?
