The maternal compassion and the example of the self-sacrifice in the octopus



In the cold waters of the Pacific Ocean, the giant octopus – their length exceeds
four metres- live. The octopus searches for a shelter in order to be safe and when they find the shelter they live there until the end of their lives.

This shelter is a place where the octopus will give birth to the baby octopi safely. As soon as the mother octopus settles down, it starts to lay eggs. After giving birth to about 100,000 baby octopi , it won’t breed again.

The mother octopus takes care of its babies with great self-devotion during six months. In order to keep the babies alive the nest should be moist. To do this, the octopus checks the eggs frequently. To cater to the oxygen of the eggs, the octopus splashes water continuously on the eggs.

The mother octopus is so busy taking care of the eggs that it doesn’t spend time on eating anything. Although it could easily die from starvation, it endeavors without stopping to take care of its eggs until they hatch safely and easily until it breaths its last.

In the end, young and fully-formed babies hatch from the eggs...

However, the mother octopus which is a caretaker, compassionate and merciful is dead.

Of course, He is Allah Who creates the octopus with compassion, mercy and devotion, and He has the infinite mercy and compassion, as He is the Creator and maintainer of all living things. Allah is most Benefcent, the most Merciful.

(2) ALLAH, Most Gracious, Most Merciful


The kaafirs whom the Muslims fight and inflict harm and loss upon are the kaafirs who fight the Muslims and drive them out of their homes, or help to drive them out of their homes and punish and mistreat them, and who stand in the way of calling people to Islam and prevent people from following the path of Allaah, and prevent the spread of Islam.

Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): “It is only as regards those who fought against you on account of religion, and have driven you out of your homes, and helped to drive you out, that Allaah FORBIDS you to befriend them. And whosoever will befriend them, then such are the Zaalimoon (wrongdoers those who disobey Allaah).”[al-Mumtahinah 60:9]

Such people are to be fought against when [the Muslims] have the power to do so, and when fighting them and declaring jihad against them is more likely to serve a purpose. But when you can achieve your purpose with gentleness and kindness, it is not righ
t to resort to violence and force.

Muslims should only use force when they are compelled to, and as a last resort. They should not initiate fighting, unless there is some cause on the part of the kaafirs, such as their fighting the Muslims, or helping other enemies of the Muslims, or preventing them from following the path of Allaah and establishing the law of Allaah in the land.

We should also remind these kaafirs of the massacres which have been carried out and are still being carried out against Muslims in all parts of the world, in Bosnia, Kosova, Chechnya, Palestine and Kashmir, which are being supported by Jews, Christians and others. Is the blood of the Muslims cheaper than the blood of others? Should there be mourners for non-Muslims who are killed and not for Muslims who are killed?

Moreover, when the Orthodox Christians carried out massacres in Bosnia and Kosova, in which the numbers of those killed exceeded 200,000, apart from those who were wounded or raped, and the economic losses that resulted, did the Muslims in the Arab and Islamic countries launch attacks against the Orthodox Christians who live in their countries, or kill any of them, or open fire against their churches and subject them to terror?! What does this tell you?

It is very important for Muslims to explain these things to non-Muslims, in order to establish proof against the kuffaar.
