O Lord, how long shall I cry,
And You will not hear?
Even cry out to You, “Violence!”
And You will not save. Habakkuk 1:2
If God did NOT allow violence, the blood of Christ’s Cross could not have been sacrificed for our sins.
This is a time that Muslims spend in study and prayer. Some will spend the whole night in prayer or in reciting the Qur’an.
Lailat al Qadr is a good time to ask for forgiveness.
Whoever establishes the prayers on the night of Qadr out of sincere faith and hoping to attain Allah’s rewards (not to show off) then all his past sins will be forgiven. Hadith, Bukhari Vol 1, Book 2:34
IF this is a time for prayer and fasting in Islam, why must God use Mosques as morgues?
God allows violence. Every nation is a nation of sinners. My nation, the United States is also a nation of sinners. Every man is a sinner. Every woman is a sinner.
Sin against God Almighty will be judged. Sin of false prophets will be judged. Sin of godless religious and national leaders will be judged. Sin of godless men will be judged.
No night or month or years of prayer can attain the forgiveness of sin.
Only the blood of Christ shed on the Cross is sufficient before God our Father to grant the mercy we do NOT deserve – the wonderful grace of our Father God’s love.
Does that mean we should not pray? Of course not. Prayer to God our Father is answered in His time. Do not pray to idols or angels or men who are dead. We pray by the grace of the Blood of Christ Jesus. Our Father loves us and listens to our prayers.
“Therefore pray for the people of Egypt. We pray for you in the Name of Christ Jesus, who shed His Blood on the Cross also for you.
