Polygamy as per The Holy Quran

Daring to touch sensitive topic, but wanted to share what i saw in The Holy Quran as there are many contradictions about this topic.

Surah 4 An-Nisa, Verse 13:

Marry women of your choice, Two or three or four; but if ye fear that ye shall not be able to deal justly (with them), then only one, or (a captive) that your right hands pos sess, that will be more suitable, to prevent you from doing injustice.

Please note the very important provision here- one should be able to deal justly which even big people miss out.

Also V129 of the same Surah 4 An-Nisa says:

Ye are never able to be fair and just as between women, even if it is your ardent desire: But turn not away (from a woman) altogether, so as to leave her (as it were) hanging (in the air). If ye come to a friendly understanding, and practise se lf- restraint, God is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.

This verse clearly says that its not possible to be fair and deal justly between women.

So guys things are pretty clear from the Quran, just need to explore and use our brains.

Prayer to make us Momin (perfect Muslim)

Rabbana waibAAath feehim rasoolan minhum yatloo AAalayhim ayatika wayuAAallimuhumu alkitaba waalhikmata wayuzakkeehim innaka anta alAAazeezu alhakeemu

"Our Lord! send amongst them an Messenger of their own, who shall rehearse Thy Signs to them and instruct them in scripture and wisdom, and sanctify them: For Thou art the Exalted in Might, the Wise."

Prayer to make us Muslims

Rabbana waijAAalna muslimayni laka wamin thurriyyatina ommatan muslimatan laka waarina manasikana watub AAalayna innaka anta alttawwabu alrraheemu

"Our Lord! make of us Muslims, bowing to Thy (Will), and of our progeny a people Muslim, bowing to Thy (will); and show us our place for the celebration of (due) rites; and turn unto us (in Mercy); for Thou art the Oft-Returning, Most Merciful.

Ref: Surah 2 Al-Baqara V128.

This is very good prayer where Abraham(PBUH) asks Allah to make him/his progeny Muslims to bow in the Will of Allah.

Prayer when u offer service in way of Allah

Rabbana taqabbal minna innaka anta alssameeAAu alAAaleemu.

"Our Lord! Accept (this service) from us: For Thou art the All-Hearing, the All-knowing.

Reference: Surah 2 Al-Baqara V127

Background: This was prayed by Abraham(PBUH) and Ismail(PBUH) when they raised the foundations of the House(Kaaba of Mecca)

Dua regarding Marriage

Waallatheena yaqooloona rabbana hab lana min azwajina wathurriyyatina qurrata aAAyunin waijAAalna lilmuttaqeena imaman

And those who pray, "Our Lord! Grant unto us wives and offspring who will be the comfort of our eyes, and give us (the grace) to lead the righteous."

Reference: Surah 25 Al-Furqan or The Criterion, verse 74

Please go through the beauty of this dua:

1) Islam never distinquishes between sex of a child(so pray for offspring not male of female child)

2) Pray for wife and children to be of such kind to provide comfort to your eyes.(this includes everything which a person expects from a marriage in the world)

3) Also the third part of this prayer asks for leading the life righteous, which tends the person to achieve success in the world and here after.

Prayer by Moses for forgiveness

Qala rabbi innee thalamtu nafsee faighfir lee faghafara lahu innahu huwa alghafooru alrraheemu

He(Moses) prayed: "O my Lord! I have indeed wronged my soul! Do Thou then forgive me!" So ((Allah)) forgave him: for He is the Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

Reference: Surah 28 Al-Qasas or The Narration, Verse 16

More details can be withdrawn form verse 15 of the same surah:

And he(Moses) entered the city at a time when its people were not watching: and he found there two men fighting,--one of his own religion, and the other, of his foes. Now the man of his own religion appealed to him against his foe, and Moses struck him with his fist and made an end of him. He said: "This is a work of Evil (Satan): for he is an enemy that manifestly misleads!"

Quran aayat Verses: 262-271 from Surah 2 Al-Baqara.

The question raised by Mujeeb:

Have gone through the Quran aayat V262 from Surah 2 Al-Baqara. Whats confusing me have marked bold

Not getting clear idea, can you throw more light on this:

***********
262. Those who spend their substance in the cause of God, and follow not up their gifts with reminders of their generosity or with injury,--for them their reward is with their Lord: on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.
