Here are some basics of Islam presented by The Muslim Students Association. Islam Means Peace Islam in Arabic means peace, purity, obedience and submission, and in the religious sense, Islam is sub­ mission to the will of God. Muslim is one who accepts His sovereignty and completely surrenders himself to His law. A Muslim believes in the unit of God, all His messengers, all His messages or Books, His angels as His creatures and functionaries, the Day of Judgment, man's accountability for his deeds and actions, and life after death. Word of God Qur'an is the last revealed work of God and the basic source of Islamic injunctions and laws. Qur'an deals witli the bases of Creeds, morality, history and humanity, worship, knowledge, wisdom, God-man relationship, and man-to-man relationships in all its spheres. Com­ prehensive basis on which sound systems of social justice, economi~s, politics! legi~lation, jurisdiction and law and mternat10nal relationships can be built, are the important contents of Qur'an. Muhammad himself was a simple unlettered man Islam's ideals who could not read or write. Yet, Qur'an was committed to memory and reflect spirit of writing by his followers. Qur'an is still available in the complete and original Arabic (the language in I nternatl week which it was revealed) .

  • Utah History Encyclopedia
    CANYONLANDS NATIONAL PARK Angel Arch, Canyonlands National Park Canyonlands National Park is located in southeastern Utah with the confluence of the Green and Colorado rivers located near the center of the park. The area had been promoted during the 1930s for inclusion into the park system as part of a much larger Escalante National Monument. However, that effort did not succeed, and in 1961 Utah Senator Frank Moss introduced legislation in the United States Senate calling for the establishment of Canyonlands National Park. After considerable opposition within the state, the legislation was passed and on 12 September 1964 President Lyndon Johnson signed the act making Canyonlands the thirty-second national park. The park is the largest of Utah′s five national parks, with a total of 337,258 acres. It is known for its rivers, canyons, mesas, pillars, standing rocks, grabens, and arches. All the rocks in Canyonlands are sedimentary. Canyonlands was home to the Fremont people and the Anasazi. The Fremont people left records in the form of pictographs and petroglyphs in Horseshoe Canyon and Salt Canyon. The Anasazi built several granaries, like Keyhole Ruin, probably in the twelfth century. Ute and Navajo Indians subsequently occupied the canyons until the late 1800s. They were eventually pushed out of the area by cattlemen. In 1869 and 1871 John Wesley Powell explored the Green and Colorado rivers as they traveled through Canyonlands. Today, the park is divided into three districts, Island in the Sky, Needles, and Maze-Standing Rock. Island in the Sky is the northernmost district. It is a high and extensive mesa located in the area between the Green and Colorado rivers.

  • The Mormon Congressman and the Line Between Church and State H
    ROUNDTABLE: The Church and Collective Bargaining/121 THE MORMON CONGRESSMAN AND THE LINE BETWEEN CHURCH AND STATE H. George Frederickson and Alden J. Stevens We gratefully acknowledge the skillful editing of Mary Frederickson and the assistance of Georgia B. Smith, Garth L. Mangum, and Dean E. Mann who kindly read and commented on the manuscript. We are in an era of significant problems relative to Church-State relations. Federal aid to education, civil rights legislation, prayer in public schools, and a host of other contemporary issues are closely connected with both religious philosophy and the practice of organized religion. This is especially true of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints because it has a comparatively well-developed body of doctrine, some of which has to do with secular and semi-secular matters, and because of its long tradition of both self-government and involvement in general government. Because recent Congressional con- sideration of legislation regarding Federal aid to education, civil rights, prayer in public schools, and labor legislation has concerned Church leadership, the whole issue of Church-State relations is of immense current importance. L.D.S. Church members tend to have strong views about a host of govern- ment programs and questions. The strength of their views of government sometimes approaches the strength of their testimony of the Gospel. While there is generally agreement between members on basic Gospel doctrine, there is frequently pronounced disagreement regarding the "goodness" or "badness" of government programs and legislation. And, not infrequently, one's testi- mony of the Gospel and one's views of government activity are equated, with resulting passionate disagreement between Church members on secular ques- tions.
