Islam, The Middle straight path and something remarkable !

Tweet

Islam is a religion of the Middle Way, which is and was always against terrorism and extremism, There is no justification in Islam for extremism or terrorism, the Holy Quran designates Muslims as the "ummatan wasata" which means the middle community. The Fact That Mulims were appointed as a Middle Nation can be found in the Verse: [002:143] Thus We have appointed you a middle nation, that ye may be witnesses against mankind, and that the messenger may be a witness against you. And We appointed the qiblah which ye formerly observed only that We might know him who followeth the messenger, from him who turneth on his heels. In truth it was a hard (test) save for those whom Allah guided. But it was not Allah's purpose that your faith should be in vain, for Allah is Full of Pity, Merciful toward mankind. after reading the Verse here is something Interesting to know; This verse is From Chapter 2 and this chapter Contains 286 Verses and The verse stated that Muslims are appointed a MIDDLE nation ! 286 divided by 2 = 143 The Verse number is 143 That Means the verse that Talk about Islam being the middle way is Itself in the Middle of the Chapter !! Isn't it remarkable ?
