Zoroastrian Priest son Rozbeh known as Salman Farsi


With time, knowledge, and repeated curiosity, new avenues of life opened. Step by step, change and development took place, creating a ladder by which humanity continued to climb toward higher levels of understanding. Practices of the primitive age gradually transformed into new philosophies of human awakening, linked to the growth and refinement of the human mind.
Humanity also passed through ages in which many gods were worshipped. Then came messengers who called people back to the worship of One God. Among them were Moses, greatly revered in Judaism, and Jesus, greatly revered in Christianity. They renewed the call to divine unity and moral responsibility.
Through these stages of spiritual history, the world finally reached Muhammad (peace be upon him), regarded in Islam as the Seal of the Prophets, who completed and confirmed the chain of earlier revelation.
In this journey of seeking truth, Salman al-Farsi, whose earlier name is commonly given in tradition as Ruzbeh (also rendered as Roozbeh or Rouzbeh), appeared. He is said to have been the son of a Zoroastrian priest from Isfahan. Driven by a deep desire to discover the true path, he searched through different traditions and lands.
During this quest, he learned that Muhammad had appeared in Arabia, receiving the first revelation around 610 CE. So he traveled there to meet him, and in that meeting found the truth he had long been seeking.

Salman Farsi (born Ruzbeh Khoshnudan; Persian: سلمان فارسی; Arabic: سَلْمَان ٱلْفَارِسِيّ) was a Persian religious scholar and one of the companions of Prophet Muhammad. As a practicing Zoroastrian, he dedicated much of his early life to studying to become a magus, after which he began travelling extensively throughout Western Asia to engage in constructive dialogue with non-Zoroastrian groups. His quests eventually led to his conversion to Christianity, and later, to his conversion to Islam, which occurred after he met and befriended the Prophet Muhammad in the city of Medina. He was a prominent non-Arab companion and one of Prophet Muhammad's closest friends; Prophet Muhammad had once stated to a gathering of his followers that he regarded Salman as a part of his family.[4] In meetings with the other companions, he was often referred to by the kunya Abu ʿAbdullah.

WHY A CREATOR 🕋 & WHAT AM I?

Image
Allah, the Creator and Lord of all worlds, has already conveyed His message, complete and flawless, through His chosen one, Muhammad (peace be upon him and his family). He fashioned the human being in perfect balance, a mirror to reflect His attributes. The message is before us, whether we embody it in living action or let it wither into hollow ritual is our trial. Know that a practice empty of spirit is like an untilled field: weeds overrun it, choking its purpose the grain of life. The field must be ploughed, its soil turned upside down, its weeds uprooted, its cavities opened to receive air and water, so that true growth may take root. Likewise, hearts must be turned, cleansed, and nourished, lest the truth be buried beneath neglect. Islam is not a stagnant creed bound in lifeless forms, it is a living force. If the hearts of men fail to plough the soil of their souls with faith and action, Islam does not perish; it seeks its own openings. It flows into the cracks of wor...

If a Woman’s Stand for Equal Marital Rights.

Image
Women claim equal rights for Multiple Marriages: Man may leap at any time, in any state, while woman is bound by the rhythm of her nature, especially in the sacred state of bearing life. Yet know this: without woman, humanity ceases to exist; without man, her path through life becomes burdensome. They are not rivals but partners, each completing the other, like two strands of the same rope, bound together in the journey of life, strength flowing from their unity. When a woman seeks to take on the same responsibilities and roles as a man, particularly in matters such as multiple marriages, it may unsettle the natural order and harmony set within family life. Each has been granted unique strengths and roles by divine wisdom, and disrupting that balance can lead to confusion and discord. Imam Ali's Perspective and the Issue of woman's Multiple Marriages If someone argues for a woman to have multiple marriages at one time in the name of equality, matching the male's...

نازک شیش محل - The Fragile Crystal Palace

نہ معاہدہ نبھانے کا   گلا رہا Na moahida nibhanay ka  gila raha You had no complaint that I broke the vow, no pain to show somehow. نہ وعدے میں محبت کا جلا رہا Na waaday mein mohabbat ka jala raha Nor did the flame of love in promise glow or grow. جوانی مجھ سے جدا ہوئی نہ عمر نے میرا ساتھ دیا Jawani mujh se juda hui na umar ne mera saath diya Youth slipped away, and age too refused to stand by me that day. غیر  تو غیر ہی تھے، اپنوں نے نہ ساتھ دیا Ghair tow ghair hi thay, apnon ne na saath diya Strangers were strangers, as they should be, but my own gave up on me. جو ساتھ تھے میری شادی میں،  وہ  کیوں  خاموش بیٹھے ہیں  Jo saath thay meri shaadi mein  woh kuin khamosh betein hein Those who cheered my wedding bell—today, why silent, who can tell? جو یار تھے وہ تماشائی ہیں،  وہ  کیوں  نہ فراموش  بیٹھے ہیں  Jo yaar thay woh tamashai hain, woh kuin na faramosh betein hein My friends are now spectators c...
