1) Lawh Al-Mahfooz & the Realm That Lies Beyond Human Perception
Q: Could you please explain whether Bayt Al-Izzah and Al-Bayt Al-Ma’moor are one and the same thing? Where is Al-Lawh Al-Mahfooz located?
A: Al-Bayt Al-Ma’moor is referred to in this name in Verse 4 of Surah 52 “At-Tur”. It means The Much Frequented House. Some scholars say that it refers to the Ka’abah, suggesting that it is always visited for worship. Other scholars say that it refers to the house of worship in heaven, which is attended by angels. Whichever view is taken, the description is apt.
Bayt Al-Izzah, on the other hand, is not a name mentioned in the Qur'an. It refers to a place where God wills whatever He may choose, but then this is figurative, because God is not limited to any place or time. Al-Lawh Al-Mahfooz, or the Preserved Tablet, refers to a tablet in which God’s revelations and His will and decrees are recorded.
The last two, and the first one as well if we take it to mean the angels’ place of worship, refers to matters that belong to the realm that lies beyond the reach of human perception [or Ghayb]. We take everything that belongs to this realm as it is stated without going into its details, because God has chosen not to make them known to us. The fact that we do not know them does not affect our ability to fulfil our duty in this life. Therefore, we do not try to find out about them more than what God has chosen to tell us.
2) ALLAH MADE RELIGION EASY
[Quran - 22:78] "And strive hard in the way of Allah (for the establishment of peace and human dignity,) such a striving as is due to Him. He has chosen you, and has not laid upon you any hardship or constriction (in the matter of) Din (Religion). This is the Din (Religion) of your father Ibrahim (Abraham). He (Allah) has named you Muslims in the previous (Books) as well as in this (Holy Qur’an) so that this (final) Messenger may be a witness over you and you be witnesses over mankind. So, (to sustain this status) establish the Prayer, pay Zakat (the Alms-due) and hold fast to (the embrace of) Allah. He (alone) is your Helper (i.e., Patron). So what an excellent Patron and what an excellent Helper is He!"
The Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) has said : [Bukhari, Book 78, Hadith 152] Narrated Anas bin Malik: "The Prophet (pbuh) said, "Make things easy for the people, and do not make it difficult for them, and make them calm (with glad tidings) and do not repulse (them )."
[Sunan Abi Dawud, Book 42, Hadith 4817] "ABU MUSA reported the apostle of Allah(MAY PEACE BE UPON HIM) as saying :
GLADDEN PEOPLE AND DO NOT SCARE THEM; MAKE THINGS EASY AND DO NOT MAKE THEM DIFFICULT."
