Revelation : How Allah The Almighty communicate With The Prophet
In religion and theology, revelation is the revealing or disclosing, through active or passive communication with a supernatural or a divine entity(s). Some religions have religious texts which they view as divinely or supernaturally revealed or inspired.
It is believed by some that revelation can originate directly from a GOD in this case Allah The Almighty, or through an agent, such as an angel. One who has experienced such contact with or communication from the divine is often called a prophet.
Abrahamic religions, including Judaism, Christianity and Islam, take it as a matter of faith that God exists, and in some way can reveal his will to people.
Divine revelation plays a very important role in the Islamic faith. While religious books of most faiths acknowledge their human author's contribution to the divine text, the Quran have been revealed word by word and letter by letter.
As a Muslims we must believe that God revealed his final message to humanity through Muhammad (c. 570 - July 6, 632) via the angel Gabriel. Muhammad is the last law-bearing prophet. Muhammad's revelations form the holy book of Islam, the Quran. The Quran is the flawless final revelation of God to humanity, valid until the Last Day.
The Quran was revealed to Prophet Muhammad through the agency of the Angel Gabriel for 22 years 2 months 22 days. In the process of revelation, there are several ways to convey the revelation to the Prophet Muhammad, including:- Angel Gabriel's revelation enter into the heart of the Prophet. In this case, the Prophet did not see anything, just felt that the revelation was already in his heart. On this, the Prophet said: Purest Spirit into my soul revealed.
- The angel appeared to the Prophet himself into a man who uttered these words to him that the Prophet knows and can memorize the words.
- Revelation came to the Prophet such as jingling sound of bells. This method is felt most heavily for the Prophet. Sometimes on his forehead sweating, despite the revelation in the winter. Sometimes the camel of the Prophet was forced to stop and sit down because he felt the weight when the revelation down when the Prophet was riding a camel.
- The angel appeared to the Prophet himself, not the form of a man, but really as a way originally
- Through Dreams. Revelation of the Almighty down to the Prophet in a dream. Namely, the true dream (ru'ya shadiqah). With a sudden the Prophet slept, he dreamed of a sudden. And, the dream was true. Regarding the revelation delivered through a dream. Ve also experienced by Prophet Ibrahim. When Abraham received the order to kill the Prophet Isma `il as.
