Re: Bismillah [IslamCity] Children in the Saff
You should stand next to the child whether he is in the front saff or the rear one This is according to you. Fiqh-us-Sunnah Fiqh 2.63a The positioning of the young and the women The Messenger of Allah placed the men in front of the young boys and the women behind the young boys. This is related by Ahmad and Abu Dawud. - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: eGroup For Muslims Around The World Sent: Sunday, January 13, 2008 7:31 PM Subject: Bismillah [IslamCity] Children in the Saff Children in the Saff Masâil related to children standing in the saff for salâh Moulana Mufti Abdur Raûf Sahib Sakkharwi Categories of Children There are three categories of children: (1) The first type are those who are innocent and young. They neither understand the etiquette of the masjid nor do they know anything about salâh. They do not have the understanding that the masjid is a place for worshipping Allâh. There is also the danger that they urinate in the masjid or play therein and violate its sanctity. Children of five to six years fall in this category. The ruling for such children is that it is not permissible to bring them to the masjid. It is the responsibility of the parents to see that they do not bring such children to the masjid. If they do so and the children violate the sanctity of Allâh's house, the parents will be sinful because the children themselves are innocent. The masjid trustees can also prohibit such children from entering the masjid. There is a limit for every act in Shari'ah. These limits are what we call Dîn and we all have to abide by these limits. (2) The second category is those children who are slightly elder. They are between seven to eleven years old. Such children understand the status of a masjid and respect it to a certain degree. However, due to lack of a complete understanding, they do not respect it fully. It is permissible to bring such children to the masjid but it is better not to do so. (3) The third category of children is those who are close to maturity. Their ages range from twelve to fourteen. However, a fifteen-year-old child is considered mature even if he does not have any signs of puberty. The ruling for this category is that they should be brought to the masjid in order to inculcate the habit of salâh with congregation because salâh becomes obligatory on them the moment they reach the age of puberty. It is obligatory on them to attend the masjid for salâh with congregation. If this habit is not inculcated before puberty, it will take time after puberty as a result of which they will forgo their salâhs with congregation. Thus it is imperative to bring the youngsters to the masjid while guiding them at home to respect the masjid. They should be taught not to make a noise in the masjid as it is a sanctified place where the name of Allâh is taken. The Position of the Children's Saff The children's saff should be made after the men's saff has been completed. This is the sunnah way. After the salâh has begun, those who arrive later should join the children's saff on the right and left side. Moving the children Some latecomers move the children further back when seeing them in the saff. Some people hold the child by the ears and drag him to the back. If the child resists, he is carried to the back. Whoever comes late does this. This occurs in many of the masjids. If the child was in the first saff at the beginning of salâh, he reaches the last saff at the end of salâh. This is because most people come late for salâh nowadays. Whoever enters the masjid, does this thinking that it is not permissible to perform salâh next to children. This is completely wrong. One should free one's mind of such a thought. You should stand next to the child whether he is in the front saff or the rear one. You may stand on his right-hand side or his left-hand side. This does not affect the salâh of the adults. All late comers should stand at the back next to the children. It is not permissible to shunt the children further back. Such an act is sinful By doing this, we are nullifying their salâh and thereby placing that sin on our shoulders. Standing in the adults' saff If the children that attend the masjid for salâh are not well disciplined and they run around in the masjid, play fools, laugh and talk, then the ruling for such children is that they should be separated and made to stand among the adults. A separate saff should not be made for them. This will prevent them from disturbing others in their salâh. If there are only one or two children, then it is permissible to make them stand with the adults without any karâhat [abomination]. Discipline We should also remember the way shown to us by Nabî Sallallâhu alaihi wasallam when dealing with children.

(Muslim) 'Aishah reported: Umm Habibah and Umm Salamah mentioned to Allah's Messenger, peace be upon him, a church in which they saw drawings while in Abyssinia, whereupon he said: 'Those people used to build a place of worship over the grave of a righteous man among them when he died and make such drawings in it.These will be the worst of people in the sight of Allah on the Day of Resurrection.'' (Bukhari and Muslim) encourages adoration of graves similar in spirit to the adoration of idols. Because of this report it is not pemmissible to build mosques over graves. Besides, the Prophet, peace be upon him, said, May Allah curse the Jews who tumed the graves of their prophets into places of worship, in order to wam others against pursuing a similar course. (Muslim and Bukhari) 'Aishah said: The only reason the grave of Allah's Messenger, peace be upon him, was not made prominent was to stop people from tuming it into a mosque. Designating certain graves as places of prayers is similar to adoring idols and seeking their pleasure. The worship of idols started with the adoration of the dead, making images of them, touching them, and offering prayers at their graves. (The commentator on this said: It points to what Bukhari narrated from Ibn Abbas conceming the reason why the people of Noah worshipped idols. They were known as Wadd, Sawa', Yaghuth, Ya'uq, and Nasr. These were pious people of whom they made images in order to remember them after their death and imitate them. Due to the lack of knowledge that became prevalent among the people, Satan made it appear beautiful to worship their images and likenesses, and to honor them, wipe over them, and approach them. Wiping them is passing one's hand over them to invoke their blessing and intercession. The same was done to the graves of nghteous people. This practice was initiated by idolaters, and then passed on to Jews and Christians and then to Muslims. Such objects are equivalent to idols.)

Graves! If you commit 'shirk' all your works will be rendered vain and you will be among the losers. Therefore, you should worship Allah Alone, and be among His grateful servants. All the Prophets of Allah who were ever sent warned the believers to beware of this heinous sin of 'shirk', which renders all the deeds of man worthless in the sight of Allah Subhanah. Thus it becomes our duty to recognize and be aware of 'shirk' and all the manifestations of this horrendous and grave sin. Allow me to just give you an example of what constitutes 'shirk': 1. Bowing down to anybody or anything other than Allah is shirk. 2. Bowing down to the Syedna is shirk. 3. Bowing down to the graves of his ancestors is shirk. 4. Bowing down to the graves of even the Prophet (saws), Hadrat Ali (saws), Hadrat Fatema (saws), etc. is shirk. 5. Believing that the dead people in their graves can hear and answer our duas is shirk. 6. Believing that anybody other than Allah can do us any harm is shirk. 7. Believing that anybody other than Allah can bring us some good is shirk. 8. Believing that anybody other than Allah knows everything is shirk. 9. Believing that anybody other than Allah sees everything is shirk. 10. Believing that anybody other than Allah listens to our prayers is shirk. 11. Believing that anybody other than Allah can help us is shirk. 12. Believing that anybody other than Allah can guide us is shirk. 13. Believing that anybody can influence Allah to give us health is shirk. 14. Believing that anybody can influence Allah to give us wealth is shirk. 15. Believing that anybody can influence Allah to give us children is shirk. 16. Believing that anybody can influence Allah to help us is shirk. 17. Believing that anybody has any power with Allah is shirk. 18. Believing that anybody has any power with Allah to take us out of the fire of Hell is shirk. 19. Believing that anybody has any power with Allah on the Day of Judgement is shirk. 20. Believing that anybody has any power to change the decision of Allah is shirk. 21. To worship anybody with Allah is shirk. 22. To invoke anybody with Allah is shirk. 23. To raise anybody to the rank of Allah is shirk. 24. To give any of Allah's attributes to anybody else is shirk. 25. To believe that anybody has the power to bring about any miracles on his own is shirk. 26. To go to somebody to take our message or supplication to Allah is shirk. To associate other beings or things with Allah is 'shirk'! To share any of the noble Attributes of Allah with anyone is 'shirk'!To invoke or worship anyone or anything with Allah is 'shirk'! The Glorious Quran is the Book which absolutely details each and every manifestation of shirk and makes the readers aware of what exactly is this most hated of crimes in the sight of Allah. It also details on how one has to avoid all the acts of shirk, and believe and invoke and worship the Lord of the Worlds, Allah Subhanah Alone. May Allah swt Guide us all towards the right path.

KAUST a Dream Come True: King Siraj Wahab, Arab News [] [] [] Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah lays the cornerstone for King Abdullah University of Science and Technology in a symbolic ceremony at Thuwal on Sunday. (AN photo by Marwan Al-Johani) [] [] THUWAL, 22 October 2007 This small village on the Red Sea coast to the north of Jeddah yesterday served as the setting for the realization of a great vision when Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah launched a project that he has been dreaming of for the last quarter of a century. The groundbreaking ceremony for a world-class coeducational research university brought together a number of learned men and women of all faiths from around the globe to Saudi Arabia. Speaking at the ceremony for the establishment of the SR10 billion King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST), the king exuded optimism, saying the new university would serve as a bridge between cultures and nations and a lighthouse of knowledge. Inspired by the eternal teachings of Islam that call for seeking knowledge, engaging in development works and promoting better understanding between peoples, we hereby announce the establishment of KAUST, the king said. The establishment of this university has been a living idea in my mind for more than 25 years and I thank God for helping us to realize it. The king said KAUST would help Saudi Arabia have a world-class independent scientific research center. It would, he said, act as a scientific base as well as a driving force for the national economy. As a new Bayt Al-Hekma (House of Wisdom), KAUST will be a beacon of hope and reconciliation and will serve the people of the Kingdom and benefit all the peoples of the world in keeping with the teachings of the Holy Quran, which explains that God created mankind in order for us to come to know each other, the king said. King Abdullah expressed the hope that KAUSTs benefits would be enjoyed by all of humanity. We hope that the university carries out its noble humanitarian message in a pure and clean atmosphere, taking the help of God and then that of enlightened intellectuals all over the world, without any bias or discrimination, he said. King Abdullah said an endowment was set up following a system that was prevalent in the golden age of Islam. By doing this work, we seek only the happiness of God and then the benefit of citizens of this great country, the birthplace of Islam and for the benefit of all humanity, he said. Crown Prince Sultan, Prince Miteb, minister of municipal and rural affairs, Makkah Gov. Prince Khaled Al-Faisal and senior Cabinet members as well as foreign dignitaries including chancellors of international universities from Asia, Europe and the United States were present. Although Thuwals beautiful beach provided the fantastic backdrop for the groundbreaking ceremony, once the international dignitaries and press entered the pavilion set up for the event, the atmosphere put everyone on notice that Saudi education had entered a phase in which technology would be the primary enabler. Within the pavilion, a high-tech multimedia presentation wrapped the audience in a world of imagination. The goal of the impressive event was to show not only the strong foundation that the governments public policies have built for this nation, but also to provide a vision of the future of higher education in Saudi Arabia. The entire production left the audience speechless, but no response was required King Abdullahs delighted and beaming smile was a statement in itself. Dr. Frank H.T. Rhodes, president emeritus, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York, who is also a member of KAUSTs International Advisory Council, set the pavilion abuzz with excitement with his excellent and highly articulate speech. This is a great occasion, he said. A memorable event in the history not only of the Kingdom but also the region and the world. It is also a significant event in the long history of higher education. A new chapter is being opened and written today. We celebrate the educational groundbreaking which represents a new vision for this university of the 21st century. We celebrate today the visionary purpose that KAUST represents. This day is memorable for the vision itself which King Abdullah has cherished for more than a quarter of a century. That of recreating in this place of such spiritual and cultural significance a Bayt Al-Hekma, a new house of wisdom where people can come together in partnership in the quest for knowledge and the search for understanding. Dr. Rhodes said the occasion was memorable because of the generosity of the endowment that makes this vision a reality. This university aspires to place itself among the leading international universities that exist in the world today, ancient and modern, not just another university or another college. Most
Re: Boycott Israel [IslamCity] Time magazine has named Khaled among the top 100 most influential people worldwide
Seeing his photograph what strikes me is this:- that he is sporting a thick moustache, and that he is not having a beard. Ibn `Umar related that the Messenger of Allah (saws) said: Differ from the polytheists: let your beards (grow), and shave your moustache. Related by al-Bukhari and Muslim. True love demands that you do everything, as your beloved would like to see it. To please Allah and His beloved Rasulullah an earnest and sincere effort must be made to carry out as much as possible of the revealed teachings, and not follow the whims, fancies and fantasies of misguided men, and misleading Shaytaan. Importance of the Beard in the words of Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam): (1) Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) said I have no connection wth one who shaves, shouts and tears his clothing eg. in grief or affication. - Reported by Abu Darda (R.A.) in Muslim, Hadith no. 501 Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) says: Trim closely the moustache, and let the beard flow (Grow). - Narrated Ibn Umar (R.A.) in Muslim, Hadith no. 498 T At 09:50 PM 5/26/2007, you wrote: He made it on Time .. The skyrocketing popularity of young preacher Amr Khaled has ranked him among the world's top 100 most influential people -- and, ironically, the most controversial back home. Gihan Shahine explores the two sides of the coin Amr Khaled When you look at the reach of what he is doing, and when you look at the millions he is touching, I don't know another single individual in the region who is having the impact that Amr Khaled is having. Thus said Rick Little, a US adviser on youth issues to the UN who has worked with the popular 39-year-old preacher on job creation schemes in the Middle East, to the Independent. That testimony on the part of an American activist may partly explain why Time magazine has named Khaled among the top 100 most influential people worldwide. The magazine said that although the lay preacher is not a household name in the West he is still a rock star for a segment of the Islamic world and a needed voice for moderation from within the Islamic world. The magazine praised his programme Life Makers because it encourages Muslims to implement plans to transform their lives and communities through Islam. It also urges them to get along peacefully with the West. Time further said, what really put Khaled on the world stage was his decision to host an interfaith conference in Copenhagen in March 2006, after the controversies over the Danish cartoons mocking the Prophet Muhammad. Muslim clerics criticised him for extending an olive branch to the Danes. But Khaled did not back down. Khaled was not chosen solely by Time. The US magazine names more than 100 individuals, leaving the rest to the public to choose. Muslim youths living in the US voted for Khaled, who ultimately ranked 13th among the heroes and pioneers. The fact that Khaled was the only Egyptian chosen among the 100 list has made the superstar preacher even more intriguing and, perhaps just as controversial. Many wonder why a US magazine like Time would name Khaled in the first place and whether that had anything to do with recent US and generally Western attempts to establish dialogue with moderate Islamic voices, as is currently the case with the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood. Why isn't Khaled as appreciated in his homeland where he could be equally used to counter extremist thoughts? And would Khaled lose part of his credibility for dialoguing with the West, sometimes considered a stigma in the eyes of conservatives? Al-Ahram 's prominent columnist Fahmy Howeidy told Al-Ahram Weekly, there might be more than one reason why Khaled was selected... But not that the West is extending dialogue with Khaled, which according to Howeidy, would only happen with groups like the Brotherhood, and definitely not a single individual. Instead, Howeidy speculates that the West welcomes the talented preacher on the grounds that his discourse promotes dialogue and rallies masses of youth through the barrier-breaking satellite channels and the Internet. The fact that Khaled is not bearded was an extra asset in the eyes of the West, according to Howeidy. A State Department official recently told The New York Times that Khaled's message was very much in sync with what we want to say to the Muslim world, which is that we have no problem with Islam and no problem with conservative Islam. The Independent similarly revealed how the British government has been happy to support Khaled's efforts. According to the Independent, Foreign Office Minister Kim Howells sent a message of support to Khaled praising him for his courage and strength in attempting to bring cultures together. The paper also wrote that the British cabinet has been suggesting ways of strengthening the hand of moderate Muslim leaders, including young Muslims with future leadership potential and that leaked British cabinet papers named Khaled as a figure worth promoting as a

Muhammad) repeatedly replies I can't read.
Isaiah's Vision: He saw Jesus riding a donkey and Muhammad riding a camel.
He also saw the destruction of Babylon (i.e. Iraq today) and its idol gods,

But the other group, whichis a minority, always creates a division and disunity within the communityand follows Saudi Arabia (or its own mother country) in starting and endingtheir observation of the holy month. For the sake of the unity, don't youthink the Muslim community should unite and start and end fasting on thesame day? Which opinion do you strongly prefer? To stick with your localcommunity or to follow another country that is far from you? Jazakum Allahkhayran.Date 10/Oct/2004MuftiSheikh Yusuf Al-QaradawiAnswerWa `alaykum As-Salamu wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh.In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.All praise and thanks are due to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon HisMessenger.Dear brother in Islam, we would like to thank you for the great confidenceyou place in us, and we implore Allah Almighty to help us serve His causeand render our work for His Sake. May Allah reward you abundantly for yourinterest in knowing the teachings of your religion, Islam!First of all, we'd like to state that Muslims should strive and do theirbest to achieve their unity in all aspects, not only in the beginning andend of Ramadan and celebrating the `Eids. It is against the spirit of Islamto see Muslims in the same country divided in their rituals and theirIslamic dates and events. The Islamic spirit is against division anddisunity. That is why Muslims are not allowed to hold two congregationalPrayers in one mosque at the same time.Muslim scholars have differed regarding the following issue: if the newmoonis sighted in one region or country, ought the people of other regions tofollow this sighting or follow their own sighting? The preferable view isthat Muslims in other regions and countries are to follow this sighting aslong as these countries share one part of the night.However, if this unity cannot be achieved nowadays, then Muslims in eachcountry must be united and start fasting on the same day. The dilemma ofMuslims in the West is that they are divided between their locality andtheir countries of origin. Some are inclined to follow their countries oforigin or major Muslim centers like Saudi Arabia. This, in fact, causesdivision among Muslims living in the West and they fail to achieve theleastlevel of unity regarding their Islamic dates and events. Moreover, thiscauses Muslims problems with the authorities in these countries anddeprivesthem from some of their rights. For instance, Muslims cannot demand the dayof `Eid as a day off if they do not agree on a certain day.In this regard, the eminent Muslim scholar, Sheikh Yusuf Al-Qaradawi,states:We should be keen and strive to achieve the unity of Muslims regarding thebeginning and end of fasting and all other rituals. We should not lose hopein achieving this goal or removing the obstacles in its way.However, it is to be stressed that anyhow if we fail to achieve the unityofthe whole Muslim nation, we should at least be keen to achieve the unity ofMuslims in each country. It is not acceptable at all that Muslims of theonecountry or city be divided among themselves and differ regarding thebeginning of the fast so that some of them start fasting on one day whilethe others do not observe the fast on that day.It is agreed upon that the decision of the ruler or the people in authorityand charge of Muslims affairs lifts the differences in disputable matters.Therefore, if the authority in charge of ascertaining the sighting of themoon in a given country (such as Dar al-Iftaa [House of Fatwa], SupremeCourt, or Presidency of Religious Affairs) announces the sighting of thenewmoon, then Muslims in such region should follow its decisions, as it isobedience in goodness even if the decision differs with other countries.In light of the above mentioned facts, Muslims are to achieve unity amongthemselves. They are to follow their own recognized authorities
Re: Boycott Israel [IslamCity] Fw: IslamiCity Recommendation
he right place to say
such something so chauvinistic - just curious - women in general are
disorderly so they must be collectively "disciplined"? I thought
Islam brought rights to women? Doesn't that include the right to respect
and fair treatment? This attitude treats women as if they are
just to be tolerated. What happened to respecting women? Treating
women as God's creations? Were we just created to cook, clean and raise
children? This way of thinking is what is wrong with the Muslim Ummah -
go to Surah Nuh and read what the Muslim Ummah needs. We need
forgiveness and repentance - not pushing women to the back as if they are
subclass species of the human race - look at the Seerah and see how Prophet
Muhammed pbuh dealt with the women in his life. What happened to the
women warriors of Islam? What role did women play in spreading
Islam? If Prophet Muhammed said "my mother, my mother, my mother"
indicating the respect that must be shown to mothers, then don't you need to
show the same respect to all the women who make the effort to come to the
masjid and pray? Are you telling me that men are not disorderly?
I've heard that some of the men in the masjid are more than disorderly.
You should be ashamed of yourself - honestly - shame on you! Step back
and ask yourself what would our beloved Prophet PBUH say about
this?
Salams,
Angie

Hope this is the right place to say this.
I found the women are running amok inside the ka'bah.Very
disorderly, and they could only be disciplined by such regulations as
proposed.
The rule is: Let them pray behind the men, and behind them the
children.

http://www.newstatesman.com/200608210022
Despatches: The real threat we face is Blair ColumnistsJohn PilgerMonday 21st August 2006
If the alleged plot to attack airliners flying from London is true - remember the lies that led to the invasion of Iraq, and to the raid on a "terrorist cell" in east London - then one person ultimately is to blame, as he was on 7 July last year. They were Blair's bombs then; who doesn't believe that 52 Londoners would be alive today had the Prime Minister refused to join Bush in his piratical attack on Iraq? A parliamentary committee has said as much, as have MI5, the Foreign Office, Chatham House and the polls. A senior Metropolitan Police officer, Paul Stephenson, claims the Heathrow plot "was intended to be mass murder on an unimaginable scale". The most reliable independent surveys put civilian deaths in Iraq, as a result of the invasion by Bush and Blair, above 100,000. The difference between the Heathrow scare and Iraq is that mass murder on an unimaginable scale has actually happened in Iraq. By any measure of international law, from Nuremberg to the Geneva accords, Blair is a major prima facie war criminal. The charges against him grow. The latest is his collusion with the Israeli state in its deliberate, criminal attacks on civilians. While Lebanese children were being buried beneath Israeli bombs, he refused to condemn their killers or even to call on them to desist. That a ceasefire was negotiated owed nothing to him, except its disgraceful delay. Not only is it clear that Blair knew about Israel's plans but he alluded approvingly to the ultimate goal: an attack on Iran. Read his neurotic speech in Los Angeles, in which he described an "arc of extremism",stretching from Hezbollah to Iran. He gave not a hint of the arc of injustice and lawlessness of Israel's occupation of Palestine and its devastation of Lebanon. Neither did he attempt to counter the bigotry now directed at all Arabs by the west and by the racist regime in Tel Aviv. His references to "values" are code for a crusade against Islam. Blair's extremism, like Bush's, is rooted in the righteous violence of rampant Messianic power. It is completely at odds with modern, multi cultural, secular Britain. He shames this society. Not so much distrusted these days as reviled, he endangers and betrays us in his vassal's affair with the religious fanatic in Washington and the Biblo-ethnic cleansers in Israel. Unlike him, the Israelis at least are honest. "We must use terror, assassination, intimidation, land confiscation and the cutting of all social services to rid the Galilee of its Arab population," said Israel's founding prime minister, David Ben-Gurion. Half a century later, Ariel Sharon said, "It is the duty of Israeli leaders to explain to public opinion . . . that there can be no Zionism, colonisation or Jewish state without the eviction of the Arabs and the expropriation of their lands." The current prime minister, Ehud Olmert, told the US Congress: "I believe in our people's eternal and historic right to this entire land [his emphasis]." Blair has backed this barbarism enthusiastically. In 2001, the Israeli press disclosed that he had secretly given the "green light" to Sharon's bloody invasion of the West Bank, whose advance plans he was shown. Palestine, Iraq, Leba non - is it any wonder the attacks of 7 July and this month's Heathrow scare happened? The CIA calls this "blowback". On 12 August, the Guardian published an editorial ("The challenge for us all"), which waffled about how "a significant number of young people have been alienated from the [Muslim] culture", but spent not a word on how Blair's Middle East disaster was the source of their alienation. A polite pretence is always preferred in describing British policy, elevating "misguided" and "inappropriate" and suppressing criminal behaviour. Go into Muslim areas and you will be struck by a fear reminiscent of the anti-Semitic nightmare of the Jews in the 1930s, and by an anger generated almost entirely by "a perceived double standard in the foreign policy of western governments", as the Home Office admits. This is felt deeply by many young Asians who, far from being "alienated from their culture", believe they are defending it. How much longer are we all prepared to put up with the threat to our security coming from Downing Street? Or do we wait for the "unimaginable"? [http://www.johnpilger.com]

Boycott Israel [IslamCity] Satan
This is a wake-up call.
We are being deceived by the Satan with his seductive voice - that makes the worse appear the better part.
Tangible fruits are dangled before our eyes, and leading us to destruction.
RESOLVE now straight away and rid yourself of all satanic influences and reform before the punishment of Allah descends.
17:63 - Allah said: "Go thy way; if any of them follow thee verily Hell will be the recompense of you (all) an ample recompense.
17: 64 - "Lead to destruction those whom thou canst among them with thy (seductive) voice; make assaults on them with thy cavalry and thy infantry; mutually share with them wealth and children;
and make promises to them. But Satan promises them nothing but deceit.
Note: 2255 - Evil has many snares for mankind. The one that is put in the foreground is the voice, the seductive personal appeal , that makes the worse appear the better part.
Note: 2256 The forcible assault of evil is next mentioned under the metaphor of cavalry and infantry. It is when cajolery and tempting fair-seeming, seem to fail that an attack is made in force with weapons of violence, of all kinds, like the different arms in an organized army.
Note 2257 If the first assaults are resisted Evil has other weapons in its armoury. Tangible fruits are dangled before the eyes, ill gotten gains and children of sin that follow from certain very alluring methods of indulgence in passions. Or it may be children dedicated to sin or worldly gains, etc;, and then there are all kinds of promises for the future.
17:65 - As for My servants no authority shalt thou have over them." Enough is thy Lord for a Disposer of affairs.

Re: Boycott Israel [IslamCity] Dajjal
n spite of all the armed might that they have thrown into South Vietnam Further, her internal white-negro riots are the consequence of the curse of Allah for the establishment of Israel as foretold. The more the U.S.A. is going to support Israel, the more she is going to suffer! The Holy Bible goes further to state as read earlier, that Britain, America and the remaining eight nation European Economic Community will be annihilated, so completely by Communist power that only the names of these nations will be left in the pages of history (Ch.XXV:BtoG) Shah Neamutullah has explicitly stated (CH:II:H) that such total destruction of England and America and their allies will be in punishment for their refusal to surrender to the will of Allah i.e. Islam.

Hello a786bid,
"sit down on Sunday evening and pray in congregation. " You
suggested.!
I wish to know
whetherthis is in the Quran or in the Sunnah ?
What did Prophet (sal) do at
times of any calamities ?
Why dont you look into
correct approaches in these matters without misleading the
ummah.
May I quote one
incident for your information.
Sahih Al Bukhari Hadith -
Narrated AsimI asked Anas bin Malik about the Qunut. Anas
replied, "Definitely it was (recited)". I asked, "Before bowing
or after it?" Anas replied, "Before bowing." I added, "So and
so has told me that you had informed him that it had been after
bowing." Anas said, "He told an untruth (i.e. "was mistaken,"
according to the Hijazi dialect). Allah's Apostle
recited Qunut after bowing for a period of one month." Anas
added, "The Prophet sent about seventy men (who knew the
Quran by heart) towards the pagans (of Najd) who were less than they
in number and there was a peace treaty between them and
Allah's Apostles (but the Pagans broke the treaty and killed
the seventy men). So Allah's Apostle recited Qunut for a perio! d of
one month asking Allah to punish
them."abdeen
If you are a Muslim, you should follow the Sunnah
atleast without resorting to your whims and fancies.
All the troulble in this world is due to our
mistaken notions.
May Allah guide us correct.

Urgent DUA REQUEST FOR LEBANONAssalaam akakum wr wb -
All Muslims should devote Sunday evening, July 30th for du'a and
prayers that Allah give victory to Mujahideens in Lebanon. Every
Muslim is obligated to make du'a for them. Let us spend part of that
night praying for them and its freedom fighters who are practicing
the best form of jihad against the worst forces of evil, namely
Israel. We all know that Du'a is the strongest weapon which Allah
has given us. It is made easy for all of us in any language in any
form wherever we are. This is why I am calling all brothers and
sisters around the world to spread this message and to encourage
everyone to sit down on Sunday evening and pray in congregation.
Let us pray that Allah grant them speedy victory and that Allah
sustain the mujahideen with extra strength and power to defeat their

What did Prophet (sal) do at times of any calamities ?
Why dont you look into correct approaches in these matters without misleading the ummah.
May I quote one incident for your information.
Sahih Al Bukhari Hadith - Narrated AsimI asked Anas bin Malik about the Qunut. Anas replied, "Definitely it was (recited)". I asked, "Before bowing or after it?" Anas replied, "Before bowing." I added, "So and so has told me that you had informed him that it had been after bowing." Anas said, "He told an untruth (i.e. "was mistaken," according to the Hijazi dialect). Allah's Apostle recited Qunut after bowing for a period of one month." Anas added, "The Prophet sent about seventy men (who knew the Quran by heart) towards the pagans (of Najd) who were less than they in number and there was a peace treaty between them and Allah's Apostles (but the Pagans broke the treaty and killed the seventy men). So Allah's Apostle recited Qunut for a period of one month asking Allah to punish them."abdeen
If you are a Muslim, you should follow the Sunnah atleast without resorting to your whims and fancies.

Every Muslim is obligated to make du'a for them. Let us spend part of that night praying for them and its freedom fighters who are practicing the best form of jihad against the worst forces of evil, namely Israel.

This is why I am calling all brothers and sisters around the world to spread this message and to encourage everyone to sit down on Sunday evening and pray in congregation. Let us pray that Allah grant them speedy victory and that Allah sustain the mujahideen with extra strength and power to defeat their enemies and liberate the Blessed land of Palestine. Every Imam in his masjid is recommended to make a special session of Du'a after `isha prayer on Sunday.

Boycott Israel [IslamCity] Qunut
We should follow Hadithand pray to Allah for success.
Sheik Nasarullah's request to recite surah Fatah at this time
of calamity is not in any Hadith - hence we should not try to do
things which may amount to innovations.
Recite Qunut. Why feel shy to follow this sunnah of the
prophet (sal) ?
Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith Narrated Salim Abu An Nadr
The freed slave of Umar bin Ubaidullah who was Umar's clerk: Abdullah bin Abi Aufa wrote him (i.e. Umar) a letter that contained the following: "Once Allah's Apostle (during a holy battle), waited till the sun had declined and then he got up among the people and said, "O people! Do not wish to face the enemy (in a battle) and ask Allah to save you (from calamities) but if you should face the enemy, then be patient and let it be known to you that Paradise is under the shades of swords." He then said, "O Allah! The Revealer of the (Holy) Book, the Mover of the clouds, and Defeater of Al-Ahzab (i.e. the clans of infidels), defeat them infidels and bestow victory upon us."
Sunan of Abu Dawood -Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas
The Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) recited the supplication (Qunut) daily for a month at the noon, afternoon, sunset, night and morning prayers. When he said: "Allah listens to him who praises Him" in the last rak'ah, invoking a curse on some clans of Banu Sulaym, Ri'l, Dhakwan and Usayyah, and those who were standing behind him said: Amen.
Sahih Al Bukhari Hadith - Narrated Asim
I asked Anas bin Malik about the Qunut. Anas replied, "Definitely it was (recited)". I asked, "Before bowing or after it?" Anas replied, "Before bowing."

Re: Boycott Israel [IslamCity] Some of the Miracles of Prophet Muhammad
Now the Muslims are looking for Miracles for their survival - when Allah is the Best of Planners, Best to Help, Best to Forgive, Best to give success, -! [Yusufali 8:64] O Prophet! sufficient unto thee is Allah,- (unto thee) and unto those who follow thee among the Believers. - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: eGroup For Muslims Around The World Sent: Sunday, July 30, 2006 9:55 PM Subject: Boycott Israel [IslamCity] Some of the Miracles of Prophet Muhammad SOME OF THE MIRACLES OF PROPHET MUHAMMAD A number of miracles were bestowed upon and performed by the Prophet Muhammad(SallAllaho Alaihi Wasallam) to establish the proof of his prophethood. The greatest miracle bestowed upon him was the revelation of the Qur'an. The Qur'an is miraculous in a number of aspects: Its linguistic perfection and inimitability, its validation by recent historical, archaeological, and scientific discoveries, its prophecies and so on. Unlike the miracles of other prophets before him, the miracle of the Qur'an is eternal. Prophet Muhammad (SallAllaho Alaihi Wasallam)also provided us with a number of true prophecies.Below are accounts of the some of the other miracles of Prophet Muhammad (SallAllaho Alaihi Wasallam). Before reading these, it helps to know someth! ing about the Science of Traditions (Arabic: Ahadith), an exacting and comprehensive system developed by early Muslim scholars to verify the chain of transmission of these accounts, as well as investigating the trustworthiness and capability of every narrator at every level of the chain. This thorough authentication process ensures that these accounts are real, validated narrations of the sayings, actions, and tacit approvals of the Prophet Muhammad (SallAllaho Alaihi Wasallam). The Traditions mentioned below are all from Sahih al-Bukhari, the most authentic collection. Splitting of the Moon Food Multiplication Water Multiplication Supplication for Rain Lights to guide Companions Crying of the stem of the Date-palm Tree Glorification of Allah by the Prophet's meals The explusion of a Christian liar's corpse by the Earth The Speech of the Wolf The Prophet's Night Journey to Jerusalem and Ascent to the Heavens Splitting of the Moon - "The Hour has drawn near, and the moon has been cleft asunder" [Qur'an 54:1]Volume 6, Book 60, Number 388: Narrated Abdullah: The moon was cleft asunder while we were in the company of the Prophet, and it became two parts. The Prophet said, Witness, witness (this miracle)." Food MultiplicationVolume 4, Book 56, Number 780: Narrated Jabir: My father had died in debt. So I came to the Prophet and said, "My father (died) leaving unpaid debts, and I have nothing except the yield of his date palms; and their yield for many years will not cover his debts. So please come with me, so that the creditors may not misbehave with me." The Prophet went round one of the heaps of dates and invoked (Allah), and then did the same with another heap and sat on it and said, "Measure (for them)." He paid them their rights and what remained was as much as had been paid to them. Water MultiplicationVolume 4, Book 56, Number 779: Narrated 'Abdullah: We used to consider miracles as Allah's Blessings, but you people consider them to be a warning. Once we were with Allah's Apostle on a journey, and we ran short of water. He said, "Bring the water remaining with you." The people brought a utensil containing a little water. He placed his hand in it and said, "Come to the blessed water, and the Blessing is from Allah." I saw the water flowing from among the fingers of Allah's Apostle , and no doubt, we heard the meal glorifying Allah, when it was being eaten (by him). Volume 4, Book 56, Number 777: Narrated Al-Bara: We were one-thousand-and-four-hundred persons on the day of Al-Hudaibiya (Treaty), and (at) Al-Hudaibiya (there) was a well. We drew out its water not leaving even a single drop. The Prophet sat at the edge of the well and asked! for some water with which he rinsed his mouth and then he threw it out into the well. We stayed for a short while and then drew water from the well and quenched our thirst, and even our riding animals drank water to their satisfaction. Volume 1, Book 7, Number 340: Narrated 'Imran: Once we were traveling with the Prophet and we carried on traveling till the last part of the night and then we (halted at a place) and slept (deeply). There is nothing sweeter than sleep for a traveler in the last part of the night. So it was only the heat of the sun that made us to wake up and the first to wake up was so and so, then so and so and then so and so (the narrator 'Auf said that Abu Raja' had told him their names but he had forgotten them) and the fourth person to wake up was 'Umar bin Al-Khattab.
Re: Boycott Israel [IslamCity] OIC efforts to help put an end to the Israeli assault on Lebanon
amounts to war crimes
If so - should go before the Courts.
Any possibility ?
Press Release
OIC efforts to help put an end to the Israeli assault on Lebanon
In view of the unrelenting Israeli assault on Gaza and Lebanon, Prof. Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, Secretary-General of the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC), has reiterated his strong condemnation and denunciation of the ruthless Israeli operations being perpetrated against Lebanon. Ihsanoglu lambasted the latest series of aggressions saying, They have defied all norms and flouted international laws and conventions. What they are doing amounts to war crimes that target innocent civilians, killing hundreds of people and utterly destroying the basic infrastructure of both the Lebanese State and the Palestinian State.
The OIC Secretary-General announced he has made several contacts to secure a ceasefire with many of the Lebanese officials, including Prime Minister Fouad Siniora as well as other influential Muslim and international leaders. He said he also exhorted the United Nations Secretary-General to put his weight behind these efforts to bring the relentless attacks to an end.
The Secretary-General emphasized that the first priority was to ensure the independence, sovereignty, and territorial integrity of Lebanon. He said UN Resolution No. 1559 was one resolution among so many taken by the UN Security Council. He underlined that other important UN Security Council resolution s have failed to get implemented or enforced, whereas these resolutions of international legitimacy constitute an integral and indivisible whole which should be implemented as a whole and not on a selective basis. Ihsanoglu therefore called for a comprehensive approach to the solution of the problems of the Middle East in order to root out the causes of tension provoked by the Israeli occupation of some territories of Arab and Palestinian countries, which has brought the Middle East to a boiling point, making it one of the worlds most volatile places and fertile grounds for extremists to act out their violence.
Ihsanoglu said it was absolutely imperative to secure an immediate ceasefire followed by an exchange of prisoners and a process of disengagement through an international force supervised by the United Nations. He emphasized the urgent need to lend our support to the Lebanese national dialogue so as to give the Lebanese people the opportunity to make their unconditionally free choice of whatever political arrangements suit their situation, away from any external interference or pressures.
At the same time, the OIC Secretary-General emphasised the crucial necessity of making an all-out effort in favour of the reconstruction of Lebanon and providing urgently-needed assistance to help the displaced and wounded people in Lebanon. He reiterated that the OIC was currently fully engaged in efforts to achieve these objectives, announcing that 180 tons of food stuffs and medicines supplied by the OIC Humanitarian Foruma Turkish Non-Governmental Organization affiliated to the OICwas presently on its way to Lebanon.

My brother and sister shia's , This is not a hate campaign to malign or hurt your feeling in anyway, rather this is a awareness campaign to educate all shias about thier direction in life and hereafter.
As we have posted lot of information about the shias and its history and origin taken from the shia's authentic souces (Usool ul kafi is to shias what bukhari is to sunnis).
We are sorry if ithurt your feelings , but believe me we want you all to join the main stream islam and revert back to the original teaching of Islam.
If you keep following shiaism it really is taking you away from the Allah and his rasool and deen and Islam. I request you all to read all the articles carefully without a biased mind and ponder over it, take your time to think and pray to allah that he guides you all to understand the treachery done to islam in the name of shiaism.
Allah knows best

[IslamCity] Muslims - the current scenario
THE CURRENT SCENARIO
1)"THE PLIGHT OF MUSLIMS: Muslims throughout the world are
suffering in various forms and degrees of oppression and hardship. Many hundreds of thousands of Muslims have died as a result of being innocent bystanders in military conflict. Furthermore, many millions of Muslims throughout the world are suffering from sanctions, boycotts, starvation a slow death."
You said this very rightly.But this is going on from ancient times todate.
See below what transpired even after Prophet
Noah's preaching for his people for almost a 1000
years.!
[Yusufali 71:1] We sent Noah to his People (with the Command): "Do thou warn thy People before there comes to them a grievous Penalty."71:2 He said: "O my People! I am to you a Warner, clear and open:71:3] "That ye should worship Allah, fear Him and obey me:71:5] He said: "O my Lord! I have called to my People night and day:
71:6] "But my call only increases (their) flight (from the Right).71:7] "And every time I have called to them, that Thou mightest forgive them, they have (only) thrust their fingers into their ears, covered themselves up with their garments, grown obstinate, and given themselves up to arrogance.71:8] "So I have called to them aloud;71:9] "Further I have spoken to them in public and secretly in private,71:10] "Saying, 'Ask forgiveness from your Lord; for He is Oft-Forgiving;71:11] "'He will send rain to you in abundance;71:12] "'Give you increase in wealth and sons; and bestow on you gardens and bestow on you rivers (of flowing water).71:21] Noah said: "O my Lord! They have disobeyed me, but they follow (men) whose wealth and children give them no increase but only Loss.71:22 "And they have devised a tremendous Plot.71:24] "They have already misled many; and grant Thou no increase to the wrong-doers but in straying (from their mark)."
71:25 Because of their sins they were drowned (in the flood), and were made to enter the Fire (of Punishment): and they found- in lieu of Allah- none to help them.
71:26] And Noah, said: "O my Lord! Leave not of the Unbelievers, a single one on earth!
71:27] "For, if Thou dost leave (any of) them, they will but mislead Thy devotees, and they will breed none but wicked ungrateful ones.

Re: [IslamCity] Is it permissible to offer prayers in Imam-Bara (shia mosque) during traveling?
Saba Khan, assalamualaikum.
I am trying to get a reply for the following mail.
Can you help?
abdeen
Assalamualaikum Mufti Ebrahim Desai,
Jinns.?
Can they help human beings in solving many ailments even those that require real medication.
This is happening in a remote village in Sri Lanka by a person, who is an alim, thousands are flocking to consult on fixed days and thereafter treatment on some other days especially after 5pm till early mornings.
A notice is put up" believe in Allah" and leave the rest to Him .
The subject male or female, believer or nonbeliever, taken into a room, laid to rest, covered with a cloth and in darkness, the subject feels something being drawn along the line of pain etc., and feelings of an operation is also felt and all this is done within 20 minutes and the patient is released thereafter having given herbal decoctions, with honey and to return after 2 months.The patient feels a definite improvement.
The belief is that the Jinns are at work and helping.
Is it proper to command and enrol help of jinns for such purposes.
If this is deception, thousands would not be rushing there.
A nominal fee of Rs2000/- is paid.
Please reply whether this is permitted.
Wassalam
abdeen

Subject: [IslamCity] Is it permissible to offer prayers in Imam-Bara (shia mosque) during traveling?
Question Is it permissible to offer prayers in Imam-Bara(shia mosque) during traveling? One of my colleagues was out of country on a businesstrip. It was time of Maghrib when he left his office;he searched for mosque but unfortunately there wasntany Masjid nearby. There was only an Imam-Bara in thatarea. Hed two choices: - either delay the Maghrib Salat (Qadha) - or offer Maghrib in Shia-mosque He opted 2nd option and offered maghrib prayer inshia-mosque. Ive two questions: - Does he need to repeat his prayer? - What should one do in such situations next time? Answer Rasulullah () said "Allah has made the entire eartha Musjid for me". This is the specialty of this Ummahthat we may pray where ever possible. Previous nationshad to pray in designated areas and were not allowedto pray anywhere. Performing Salaah in a Shia or imamBara does not affect the validity of the Salaah. TheSalaah performed was valid and there is no need torepeat the Salaah. To delay the Salaah without a validreason is a sin. If you are faced in a similarsituation some other time, you should perform yourSalaah wherever. It is important to note that the above ruling was ifyou had performed your Salaah individually. However,if you had followed an imam, and his Aqeeda (belief)is not according to the beliefs of Ahlus Sunnah WalJamaaah, it is not be permissible to follow thatimam.

Re: [IslamCity] Hijab to be banned in Oslo's schools
Quote:
"We have been having a discussion about whether you should wear the Niqab or not,"
Wakeup brothers and sisters.
We create all this problem by wearing niqab when it is really not necessary.
By this, you are inviting such draconian laws.

Hijab to be banned in Oslos schools
6/22/2006 12:00:00 PM GMT
Joining a number of European states, the Norwegian government plans to ban female Muslim students from wearing the Islamic headscarf, or Hijab, in Oslos public schools, All Headline News reported.Lawyers of the Norwegian ministry of Education told Oslos city council that the Hijab ban wouldnt be illegal un! der the countrys laws.According to Reuters, Oslo wants to ban female Muslim teachers from wearing the Burqa or Niqab, which covers the whole body and the face, claiming that teachers cannot do their job properly without seeing their students."We will introduce a ban after the summer holidays at the end of August, said Toerger Odegaard, the head of the citys education department.The news sparked Muslim anger in Norway, where many Muslims of Pakistani and Somali origin live, mainly in Oslo.Muslim leaders argue that the Hijab ban violates womens rights and restricts their personal freedoms."We have been having a discussion about whether you should wear the Niqab or not, but making laws which ban it is just going too far," said Fakhra Salimi, the head of MiRA a partly state-sponsored group that helps female immigrants in Norway.She added that women over the age of 16 should be free to decide whether to wear the Niqab or not.The Hijab is meant to protect Muslim women from the eyes of men outside her family. It has been the subject of heated debate in several European countries for more than a decade.In 2004, a Hijab ban was enforced on all female Muslim teachers and students in all state schools in France, where Muslims make up about 8% of the population.In Germany, home to about 5 million Muslims, eight states banned public school teachers from wearing the Islamic headscarf. And in the capital, Berlin, all civil servants are banned from wearing the Hijab.Last December, the Dutch parliament voted to ban Burqas, which are already banned in the Belgian town of Maaseik.

Re: [IslamCity] MANY MUSLIMS ARE NO LONGER FOOLED BY FBI
MANY MUSLIMS ARE NO LONGER FOOLED BY FBIsaid jumadaaloola From my point of view- Muslims are being fooled by Muslims -who are vain glorious boasters, idle talkers, hypocrites, false mongers, saint worshippers, anti-hadidists etc., etc. ( atleast some) If they remained real Muslims without distorting the religion, the FBI, the MR5, Bush or Blair- would not have even dreamed of fooling them, but on the contrary would have joined them.

The UC Irvine sophomorethinks the fact that she's Muslim is the reason she's been singled outfor searches at airports and been scrutinized by police at anti-wardemonstrations.She's also distrustful of the FBI, uncertain whether the agency istelling the complete story of whether its employees are monitoringOrange County's Muslim community.Her doubts loom a week after Muslim leaders and an FBI senior agentshook hands and patted each other on the back, concluding a meetingthat addressed conflicting reports as to whether the community isbeing watched.Los Angeles FBI Assistant Director Stephen Tidwell adamantly deniedthat his agents were monitoring Orange County's Muslim community."The Muslim community is not of concern to us," he told more than 200people at the Islamic Center of Irvine.Bangee called the meeting a "good start to a relationship.""But I do not think we accomplished anything as yet," she said.The issue arose May 24, when Pat Rose, head of FBI's Orange Countyal-Qaida squad, said during a meeting of the Pacific Club that "thereare a lot of individuals of interest." Asked whether citizens shouldbe worried about activist Muslim students at UCI, she said it was"another tough question to answer."The FBI hasn't said who is being monitored, but Rose admitted thatelectronic surveillance is being used in Orange County.Robert J. Cristiano of Newport Beach, who attended the Pacific Clubmeeting, said some are misinterpreting Rose's comments."I think it's much ado about nothing," said Cristiano, a club memberwho was speaking only for himself. "What I heard her say was that nocommunity is immune. I took it as she stated it. No group is singledout. No group is immune (from surveillance)."Bangee's skepticism of exactly what is going on may be warranted, saidan Arab-American civil-rights activist and a former FBI agent. Theycite several instances of agents asking people which mosque theyattend and whom they visited during family vacations to the Middle East.The Muslim community and the FBI are like two ships passing in thenight, said James Wedick, a 35-year FBI agent who owns aninvestigations agency in a Sacramento suburb."The bureau has yet to honestly deal with how to communicate with theArab and Muslim community and the Arab community distrusts thembecause of good reason because of paid informants getting sent intothe community for less than legitimate reasons," he said.The FBI community is upset by Rose's statements, he said."She was probably being more candid than Tidwell would want you tobelieve," said Wedick, whose wife works for the agency. "Now they'retrying to repair the damage that they've done."Ban Al-Wardi, an activist in the Arab-American community and animmigration lawyer, said the FBI typically denies monitoring a group.She said she's worked cases in Orange County and elsewhere in SouthernCalifornia in which agents monitored board meetings and the financialtransactions of Arab-American organizations. In addition, she said,agents have asked college students questions about their mosque andwhat the iman preaches.She said the FBI tries to gain the community's trust on the pretext ofprotecting Muslims from hate crimes and backlash.Another question is whether monitoring is legal and protected by

[IslamCity] Traits of Hypocrites
HYPOCRITES traits Signs and Traits of the hypocrites as is described in The Quran Translated by Yahya Adel Ibrahim * Traits: Causing Corruption and Mischief upon the earth And when it is said to them: Make not mischief on the earth, they say: We are only peacemakers. Verily! They are the ones who make mischief, but they perceive not. Al-Baqarah 2:11,12 * Trait: Inspiring one another with evil words And so We have appointed for every Prophet enemies - Shayâtin (devils) among mankind and jinns, inspiring one another with adorned speech as a delusion (or by way of deception). If your Lord had so willed, they would not have done it, so leave them alone with their fabrications. Al-Anâm 6:112 * Traits: Deception and Mendacity They (think to) deceive Allâh and those who believe, while they only deceive themselves, and perceive (it) not! al-Baqarah 2:9 * Traits: Mocking the believers And when they meet those who believe, they say: We believe, but when they are alone with their Shayâtin (devils - polytheists, hypocrites, etc.), they say: Truly, we are with you; verily, we were but mocking. Al-Baqarah 2:14 * Traits: Laziness, heedlessness and forgetfulness of Allâh Verily, the hypocrites seek to deceive Allâh, but it is He Who deceives them. And when they stand up for As-Salât (the prayer), they stand with laziness and to be seen of men, and they do not remember Allâh but little. An-Nisâ (4:142) * Trait: Squandering their mental faculties to use in sin They are deaf, dumb, and blind, so they return not (to the Right Path). Al-Baqarah 2:18 * Traits: They lay in wait to chastise and defame the believers Those (hyprocrites) who wait and watch about you; if you gain a victory from Allâh, they say: Were we not with you, but if the disbelievers gain a success, they say (to them): Did we not gain mastery over you and did we not protect you from the believers? Allâh will judge between you (all) on the Day of Resurrection. And never will Allâh grant to the disbelievers a way (to triumph) over the believers. An-Nisâ 4:141 * Trait: Rejection of the Hukm (rulings) of Allah and His Prophet. And when it is said to them: Come to what Allâh has sent down and to the Messenger (Muhammad SAW), you (Muhammad SAW) see the hypocrites turn away from you (Muhammad SAW) with aversion. An-Nisâ 4:61 * Traits: Seeking to rationalize and explain their sinful deeds when they are confronted with the evilness of their actions. They seek to conceal their evil intentions by swearing that their sinful deeds were unintentional How then, when a catastrophe befalls them because of what their hands have sent forth, they come to you swearing by Allâh, We meant no more than goodwill and conciliation! an-Nisâ 4:62 They have made their oaths a screen (for their evil actions). Thus they hinder (men) from the Path of Allâh, so they shall have a humiliating torment. Al-Mujadilah 58:16 * Traits: Focusing on the visible ornaments and beautifications. They are eloquent speakers who do not act upon their many words. They weave mirages of sensibility and grandeur. And when you look at them, their bodies please you; and when they speak, you listen to their words. They are as blocks of wood propped up. They think that every cry is against them. They are the enemies, so beware of them. May Allâh curse them! How are they denying (or deviating from) the Right Path. Al-Munafiqûn 63:4 * Trait: They rejoice at the misfortune and sadness of the believers. If good befalls you (O Muhammad SAW), it grieves them, but if a calamity overtakes you, they say: We took our precaution beforehand, and they turn away rejoicing. At-Taubah 9:50 * Trait: Seeking to please humanity at the expense of displeasing Allah. They (the hypocrites) swear to you (Muslims) that you may be pleased with them, but if you are pleased with them, certainly Allâh is not pleased with the people who are Al-Fâsiqûn (rebellious, disobedient to Allâh). At-Taubah 9:96 * Trait: Mocking and defaming the believers Those who defame such of the believers who give charity (in Allâh's Cause) voluntarily, and those who could not find to give charity (in Allâh's Cause) except what is available to them, so they mock at them (believers), Allâh will throw back their mockery on them, and they shallhave a painful torment. At-Taubah 9:79 * Trait: They discourage the believers from fighting the disbelievers. They seek to cause discord and Fitnah in the ranks of the believers and spread corruption and mischief throughout the earth. As such Allah ordained upon them that they not join the believers in the battles (out of their own fears). And if they had intended to march out, certainly, they would have made some preparation for it, but Allâh was averse to their being sent forth, so He made them lag behind, and it was said (to them), Sit you among those who sit (at home). Had they marched out with you, they would have added to you nothing except disorder, and they would have hurried about in
[IslamCity] Man's personal religion depends upon many things.
man's- personal religion depends upon many things.
His personal psychology,
The background of his life,
His hidden or repressed feelings,
Tendencies, or history ( which psychoanalysis tries to unravel),
His hereditary dispositions or antipathies,
And all the subtle influences of his education and his environment.
THE TASK FBEFORE THE MAN OF ALLAH IS :-
to use any of these which can subserve the higher ends;
to purify such as has been misused,
to introduce new ideas and modes of looking at things,
combat what is wrong and cannot be mended-
All for the purpose of leading to the truth and gradually letting in spiritual light where there was darkness before.
If that is not done with discretion and the skill of a spiritual teacher, there may be not only a reaction of obstinacy, but an unseemly show of dishonour to the true God and His Truth., and doubts would spread among the weaker brethren whose faith is shallow and inform.
What happens to individuals is true collectively of nations or groups of people. They think in their self obsession that their own ideas are right. Allah in His infinite compassion bears with them and asks those who have purer ideas of faith, not to vilify the weaknesses of their neighbours, lest the neighbours in their turn vilify the real truth and make matters even worse than before. Insofar as there are mistakes, Allah will forgive and send His Grace for helping ignorance and folly. Insofar as there is active evil, He will deal with it in His own Way.
Of course the righteous man must not hide his light under a bushel ; or compromise with evil, or refuse to establish right living where he has the power to do. (yusuf Ali)
6:108 -
Revile not ye those whom they call upon besides Allah lest they out of
spite revile Allah in their ignorance. Thus have We made alluring to each people its own doings. In the end will they return to their Lord and We shall then tell them the truth of all that they did.is infinite compassionH

[IslamCity] the rib and the women
The Rib and the Women,
Narrated Abu Huraira
548-Sahih Al-Bukhari hadith
Allah 's Apostle said, Treat women nicely, for a women
is created from a rib, and the most curved portion of
the rib is its upper portion, so, if you should try to
straighten it, it will break, but if you leave it as it is, it
will remain crooked. So treat women nicely.
Narrated Abu Huraira
7114- Sahih Al-Bukhari hadith
The Prophet said, Whoever believes in Allah and the
Last Day should not hurt (trouble) his neighbor. And I
advise you to take care of the women, for they are
created from a rib and the most crooked portion of the
rib is its upper part; if you try to straighten it, it will
break, and if you leave it, it will remain crooked, so I
urge you to take care of the women.
Shahih Muslim 31
Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar
The Messenger of Allah observed: O women, you
should give charity and ask for much forgiveness for I
saw you in bulk amongst the dwellers of Hell. A wise
lady among them said: Why is it, Messenger of Allah,
that our folk is in bulk in Hell? Upon this the Holy
Prophet observed: You curse too much and are
ungrateful to your spouses. I have seen none lacking in
common sense and failing in religion but (at the same
time) robbing the wisdom of the wise, besides you.
Upon this the woman remarked: What is wrong with our
common sense and with religion? He (the Holy prophet)
observed: Your lack of common sense (can be well
judged from the fact) that the evidence of two women
is equal to that of one man, that is a proof of the lack of
common sense, and you spend some nights (and days)
in which you do not offer prayer and in the month of
Ramadan (during the days) you do not observe fast,
that is a failing in religion. This hadith has been
narrated on the authority of AbuTahir with this chain of
transmitters.

[IslamCity] Muslim Beard
The Blessed Beard... Grow it, what's so hard to understand? Commentary by Islam.tc Muslims are overcome with western influence in their lives and it's easy to forget, nay, neglect the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him). Little do these Muslims realize the magnitude of their actions in imitating Kufaar (see Hadith section). Hopefully the information presented herein will enlighten those. And then there are others who claim that the matters concerning beards is a "little" issue not worthy of mention nor practice. To them I say get off the denial bandwagon, you're a Muslim! Follow the Prophet (Peace be upon him) in all aspects of life, for he was the best of examples. I couldn't tell you how many times I've mistaken a Muslim brother (outside of the Masjid) for a kaafir on account of his clean-shaven, well oiled, face. How can I say "Assalaamu Alaikum Brother!" when I do not know if he is a Muslim. Yet that very brother then wonders why he was ignored! Sure, he can tell if others are Muslim on account of their beard, but what about himself? From one brother to another, I say: "Grow a beard, then, since it also promotes Brotherhood in the real world. Stand with your Brothers, be one. We know you are handsome without it (a beard), but who cares? What matters is how Allah (S.W.T.) sees you. And when you do grow a beard, don't mock the Sunnah, please grow it correctly, i.e. FIST LENGTH. That is the prescribed length and no shorter (see Hadeeth section)..." Peace. DEFINITION OF A BEARD: (Another version) Shaykh ibn Uthaymeen (may Allah preserve him) said: The definition of the beard as stated by the scholars of (Arabic) language is: the hair of the face, jawbone and cheeks, in the sense that all the hair on the cheeks, jawbone and chin is part of the beard and removing any of it is counted as a sin, because the Messenger (peace aand blessings of Allah b e upon him) said: Let your beards grow, Leave your beards alone, Let your beards increase. , Let your beards be full,. This indicates that it is not permissible to remove anything from the beard. But the sin may vary in degree shaving the beard is worse than shortening it, because it is a more obvious contradiction of the Sunnah. And Allah knows best. 50:24 - (The sentence will be:) "Throw throw into Hell every contumacious Rejector (of Allah)! 4960 50:25 - "Who forbade what was good transgressed all bounds cast doubts and suspicions; 51:10 - Woe to the falsehood-mongers 51:11- Those who (flounder) heedless in a flood of confusion: 4996 51:54 - So turn away from them: not thine is the blame. 5031 51:50 Hasten ye then (at once) to Allah:I am from Him a warner to you clear and open! When an adulterer is committing adultery , he is not a Muslim (believer) The Mashaaikh have explained that at the time of adultery the noor of imaan is separated from the adulterer. After he has finished this sinful act the Imaan returns into a Muslim. The shaving of the Beard is such an act that it is continuous, and is exhibited all the time. When performing salaat too, this sin remains with him. Similarly during Sown (fast) Hajj and all ;other ibaadaat this sinful act accompanies him. Ibn Asaakir and others have reported that Hassan relates that Rasulullah Peace be upon him said: There were ten such habits amongst the people of Loot A.S. which were the cause of their destruction. Amongst these habits is listed the shaving of the Beard and the lengthening of the Mousta. After death in the grave we will first be shown the countenance of Rasulullah Peace be upon him. Those will be moments of regret and utter hopelessness Allah forbid, if at such a time of need, and with hope that Rasulullah Peace be upon him intercede on ones behalf, he sees a face and an appearance that is not according to his Sunnat , and he turns his face away ! How unfortunate this will be ? Hadith No:3 How severe is this warning. Those with long moustaches regard themselves as members of the elite and register themselves as Muslims in official records, but Rasulullah Peace be upon him refuses to accept them as members of his group. Wasthila R.A. relates that Rasulullah Peace be upon him said: Whoever does not cut his moustache is not of us. The Hadith categorically states that the beard should be lengthened and the moustache cut. This is related both in Bukhari and Muslim. Rasulullah Peace be upon him has sternly commanded this to his followers. Wherever Rasulullah Peace be upon him - gives a command then that act becomes compulsory ( Waajib) , and to neglect this Waajib command is totally prohibited, (Haram) . Thus it is forbidden (Haraam) to shave the beard and keep long moustaches. This is further elaborated in another Hadith in which Rasulullah Peace be upon him - has said whosoever does not cut his moustache is not of our group. This has been related by Ahmad, Tirmizi and Nasaee. In Ibn Dawood it is mentioned thus: We used to allow our

Subject: [IslamCity] rafa yadain in salah
according to some school of thoughts Rafa Yadain is compulsory while offering SALAH. However, as per the interpretation of Hanfi school of thought, the approach is some how different
I would like to have your say about one of the issue which I face while offering the prayers (Nimaz). It would be very kind of you if a detailed clarification could be given about the above mentioned issue as to what method should be adopted that is also best supported by Sunnah / Hadith.
Answer 16597
2006-03-24
The issue of Raf-ul yadayn is not of permissibility and non-permissibiliy. It is an issue of Afzaliyyah (more virtuous). One Hadith states: Ibn Masood [radhiallaahu anhu] says, I shall show you how Nabi [sallallaahu alayhi wasallam] performed Salaat and he only made Raf-ul yadayn in the beginning of Salaat. (Sunan al-Tirmidhi Hadith257) Based on this, Imaam Abu Hanifa and Imaam Maalik [ra] preferred this view that one should only raise his hands in the beginning of Salaat at the Takbeer Tahrima. (Naylul Awtaar vol.2 pg.185; Ilmiyah) Another Hadith states: Ibn Umar [radhiallaahu anhu] mentions that Nabi [sallallaahu alayhi wasallam] used to raise his hands when he commenced Salaat, at the time of going into Ruku and when he came up from Ruku. (Bukhari). Based on this Hadith, Imaam al-Shaafiee and Imaam Ahmad ibn Hanbal [ra] preferred Raf-ul- yadayn in other postures as well. However, all the Imaams consider both views to life the hands in all postures or only in the beginning as permissible. According to Imaam Abu Hanifa and Imaam Maalik, it is also permissible to lift the hands in all postures. According to Imaam al-Shaafiee and Imaam Ahmad ibn Hanbal, it is not compulsory to lift the hands in all postures. and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best Mufti Ebrahim Desai

Re: [IslamCity] Muslim World: Morocco - Women Islamic Preachers deployed for First Time
Any web site in this connection ? ---Original Message--- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 05/03/06 16:51:40 To: eGroup For Muslims Around The World Subject: [IslamCity] Muslim World: Morocco - Women Islamic Preachers deployed for First Time Women preachers: Morocco's new weapon against Islamic extremism Fri Apr 28, 2:17 AM ET RABAT (AFP) - In a project unknown in Islam, Morocco has just graduated its first team of women preachers to be deployed as a vanguard in the kingdom's fight against any slide towards Islamic extremism. ADVERTISEMENT "This is a rare experiment in the Muslim world," proudly stated Mohamed Mahfoud, director of the center attached to the Islamic affairs ministry that trained this first class of 50 women. Ministry spokesman Hamid Rono said it was the "first (of its kind) in the Islamic world". This pioneer group of Morchidat, or guides, who finished a 12-month course in early April, were trained to "accompany and orient" Muslim faithful, notably in prisons, hospitals and schools, said Mahfoud. They will earn a salary of 5,000 dirhams (450 euros, 560 dollars) per month. Short and plump, a scarf knotted around her head to cover her hair in line with religious custom, a smiling Samira Marzouk, in her 30s like most of the others, exclaims how "proud" she is to be part of this first group. She sees their mission as one to "fill in the gaps that prevent a solid framework for religion". "We are going to teach a tolerant Islam by focussing on the underprivileged classes," she added. They will notably work with women and children in poor ghettoes seen as fertile ground for extremist recruiters. The idea of the Morchidat, spearheaded by King Mohammed VI and the government, took off after Islamic extremist attacks in the Moroccan economic capital Casablanca on May 16, 2003 claimed 45 lives -- including the 12 bombers -- and left dozens of others wounded. The King -- who is a descendant of Islam's founder, the Prophet Mohamed, and enjoys wide powers -- had already started reshaping religious structures to rein in any extremist drift in his North African country, which borders Algeria where violence between government forces and armed Islamic extremists has caused more than 150,000 deaths since 1992. But the synchronized suicide bomb attacks that hit Jewish and foreign targets gave new urgency to the initiative. More than 2,000 people were arrested in vast police sweeps after the May bombings as the king vowed the attacks would be the last to rock Morocco. Investigators concluded that those behind the incident had indeed sought recruits in the teeming slums around Casablanca, Morocco's biggest city. Marzouk, a young married woman with a diploma in Arab literature who said she knows the Koran by heart, was quick to specify she is "not going to take the place of an imam". "The imamate in Islam is restricted solely to men who are apt at leading prayers, notably those on Friday," the Islamic holy day, she said. "The Morchidat will be in charge of leading religious discussions, give courses in Islam, give moral support to people in difficulty and guide the faithful towards a tolerant Islam," she added. Another graduate, Leila Fares, a lively young woman who holds a degree in Islamic studies, said she saw the Morchidat's role as promoting "the true face of Islam". "We will help attenuate any drift towards Islamic extremism," she said, stressing that "an overall approach is needed to dealing with radical Islam". During the year-long course, the curriculum ranged from Islamic studies to psychology, sociology, computer skills, economy, law and business management. "Sports was the only subject dropped from the women preachers' training because the schedule was just too tight," regretted Mahfoud, who hopes to include it for the second batch of Morchidate trainees, whose applications are now being accepted. For the Islamic affairs minister, Ahmed Taoufiq, the Morchidat will also "instruct women on their basis religious duties". He said religious radicalism was not part of Morocco's culture "but you can never prevent evil one hundred percent". Morocco's Islamic fundamentalists are divided over the inititive. For one, Islamist deputy Mustapha Ramid with the Islamist Justice and Development party (PJD), the main opposition group with 43 seats in the 325-member parliament, the Morchidat is a "positive" development. "I see nothing more to say about this initiative because in Islam, men and women are equal," he said, pointing to Egypt which has "eminent women scholars of Islam". But the head of the youth group in Morocco's most radical Islamic fundamentalist association, Al-Adl Wal-Ihssane (Justice and Welfare), forecast it would have no effect on the ground. "The power behind this initiative is the same as the one that commits acts contrary to Islam, notably degrading moral values," said Hassan Bennajeh, whose group is part of an Islamist movement that preaches

Re: [IslamCity] Verse of the day
May I add:-
" best of creatures" Al-Quran(98:7)
No doubt- Best of all creatures.FAITH:
Faith: When, in spite of all the efforts of the Prophets
of Allah, people do not accept Truth, and evil
seems to flourish for a time, we must wait and
be patient, but at the same time we must not give
up hope or persevering effort. For thus only can
we carry out our part in the Plan of Allah. (10.109)
Excess in religion to be avoided.
Sunan of Abu-DawoodHadith 538 Narrated byAbdullah ibn Umar
Mujahid reported: I was in the company of Ibn Umar. A person invited the people for the noon or afternoon prayer (after the adhan had been called). He said: Go out with us (from this mosque) because this is an innovation (in religion).

From: Mahmudul Hasan [EMAIL PROTECTED]Date: Fri, 24 Mar 2006 04:24:35 -0500 (EST)Subject: French Coach Troussier Reverts to Islam French Coach Troussier Reverts to Islam "I want to keep my feelings for myself," said Troussier. RABAT, March 24, 2006 (IslamOnline.net News Agencies) Famed French soccer coach Philippe Troussier and his wife Dominique have reverted to Islam in the Moroccan capital where they live, sources close to the couple confirmed Thursday, March 23. "Troussier is no longer Philippe, he has taken the name Omar and his wife is no longer Dominique but Amina," the French-Moroccan daily L'Opinion reported Thursday. A source close to the couple confirmed the reversion to Agence France-Presse (AFP), adding that the ceremony took place last Friday. The widely-travelled Troussier, 51, is former coach of the Moroccan national team and French club Marseille. He also had spells in charge of South Africa, Nigeria, Ivory Coast, Burkina Faso, Qatar and Japan, whom he guided to the second round of the 2002 World Cup. "Wonderful Surprise" L'Opinion hailed the reversion as "a magnificent and wonderful surprise." "Welcome Omar and Amina to the Kingdom of the All Powerful, the Kingdom of the Truth," it wrote. "As Muslims we are happy to see such a strong and well recognized personality as Philippe Troussier become part of this religion of peace and tolerance." The newspaper added that when contacted Troussier said he "did not want to elaborate too much on the subject." "I want to keep my feelings for myself," Troussier was quoted as saying, adding: "as you see things evolve ..." The Moroccan Evening newspaper reported that the couple have adopted two local girls Selma and Mariam. Thousands of French revert to Islam every year in France, but not all of them declare their new faith outright, fearing discrimination at home or work and a stereotypical view that reverts tilt towards extremism, according to recent studies and surveys. Anelka, who played for Paris Saint-Germain, Arsenal, Real Madrid, Liverpool and Manchester City, eventually had to leave for the Turkish league after increasing harassment. Some imams in France have ruled that it was permissible for new reverts to conceal their faith if they feared rejection from family members and colleagues or security harassment. Many Arabs and Muslims were even forced to change their names and hide their roots to spare themselves police and employers' discrimination. A Sorbonne research released earlier in the year by the French Observatory Against Racism found that Arab names and dark complexion represent an obstacle to jobseekers. France is home to some six to seven Muslims, the largest Muslim minority in Europe. http://www.islamonline.net/English/News/2006-03/24/article01.shtml (24 March 06) -ABDUL WAHID OSMAN BELAL

Muslims - take note.
Biographies of CompanionsUbayy ibn Kab
One of Ubayy's major fears for the Muslim ummah was that a day would come when there would be severe strife among Muslims. He often became overwhelmed with emotion when he read or heard the verse of the Quran." "Say: He (Allah) has power to send calamities on you, from above and below, or to cover you with confusion in party strife, giving you a taste of mutual vengeance, each from the other."

Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) said: The influence of an evil eyes is a fact; if anything would precede the destiny it would be the influence of an evil eye, and when you are asked to take bath (as a cure) from the influence of an evil eye, you should take bath.

Assalamu alaikum rahmatu Allah wa barakatu. Recently I have been having a big problem. I was wondering if someone could give me advice on this. I am scared to go out of my home. Maybe it sounds stupid but I have been getting the evil eye so bad I almost get like a panic. Just the other day I was walking my baby in the stroller with my friend when a man driving by in a car yelled a rude comment to me. People give me aweful looks and are rude to me. Alhomdulilah I wear hijab. My husband tells me "I don't want to hear it" when I tell him about it. I just don't know what to. I live in the U.S. I can't just stay in the house all the time, but what should I do? You brothers wouldn't believe the way we sisters get treated sometimes. Subhana Allah. Assalamu alaikum rahmatu Allah wa barakatu.

[IslamCity] Remembrance
Remembrance !
[Yusufali 40:60] And your Lord says: "Call on Me; I will answer your (Prayer): but those who are too arrogant to serve Me will surely find themselves in Hell - in humiliation!"
ALLAH will hear us, Forgive us, Guide us, and make our path smooth if we pray to Him and seek His Grace with patience, and confess our human frailities by humbly approaching Him in earnest and in private feeling a tremor in our hearts in giving Him sincere devotion and invoke with sure conviction that it will be granted with a full attentive mind with absolute surrender to the ALMIGHTY for His help. The hands raised up towards Allah in humble submission are not generally returned empty !
ABU HURAIRAH reported that the Apostle of Allah said:-
ALLAH BECOMES DISPLEASED WITH ONE WHO DOES NOT INVOKE HIM Tirmizi
SALMAN AL-FARESI reported that the Apostle of Allah said:-
YOUR LORD IS ASHMED TO TURN AWAY EMPTY THE HANDS OF HIS SERVANT WHEN HE RAISES THEM UP BEFORE HIM. Tirmizi, AbuDaud, Baihagi
.

LET EVERYONE OF YOU IMPLORE HIS LORD FOR ALL THAT HE NEEDS EVEN FOR THE THONG OF HIS SHOES WHEN IT IS TORN. Tirmizi.

Re: [IslamCity] SHOULD WE CELEBRATE VALENTINE'S DAY?
Definition of imitation. Imitation (tashabbuh in Arabic) means resembling. If we say that someone imitates someone else, we mean that he looks like him and acts like him. Likening a thing to something else (tashbeeh) means saying that it is like it. The word tashabbuh has many counterparts in Arabic which carry meanings such as being like, imitating, looking like, following, agreeing with, taking as an example, copying, etc. They all have shades of meaning of their own, but they also overlap with the meaning of tashabbuh. In terms of the terminology of Fiqh, al-Ghuzzi al-Shaafai defined tashabbuh as describing a persons attempt to be like the one whom he is imitating, in appearance, characteristics, equalities and / or attributes. It implies making an effort to achieve this and deliberately taking action for that purpose. The ruling on imitating the kuffaar One of the most important basic principles of our religion is that of al-walaa wal-baraa, loyalty (walaa) to Islam and its people, and diavowal (baraa) of kufr and its people. One of the essential features of this disavowal of kufr and its people is that the Muslim should be distinct from the people of kufr, and he should feel proud of his religion and of being a Muslim, no matter how strong and advanced and civilized the kuffaar may appear to be, and no matter how weak and backward and divided the Muslims may appear to be. It is not permissible under any circumstances to take the strength of the kuffaar and the weakness of the Muslims as an excuse for imitating and resembling them, as some hypocrites and defeatist Muslims claim. The texts which forbid imitating the kuffaar do not make any distinction between whether Muslims are strong or weak, because the Muslim can be distinct in his religion and be proud of being Muslim even when he is in a weak position. Allaah calls us to be proud of Islam, and considers this to be the best of speech and the best kind of pride, as He says (interpretation of the meaning): And who is better in speech than he who [says: My Lord is Allah (believes in His Oneness), and then stands firm (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allahs (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: I am one of the Muslims.

True LoveLove - one of the strongest emotions known to mankind-a power thatcan ruin or redeem a life- that can bring joy orpainful heartbreak.Today as the world celebrates this emotion onValentine's Day, wesee hearts of all sizes and shapes all around, heartsof chocolateand satin. O Yes! It's Valentines! The day of hearts,red roses,poetry, candies and above all - Love! Where did Valentine's Day come from?There are many traditions about its origin, but themost authenticseems to be the one from Encyclopedia Britannica thatsays that thisday has nothing to do with Saint Valentine, instead itis related tothe Roman pagan festival of their god, Lupercalia.It was celebrated on 15th February and in honour ofthe goddess JunoFebruata, the names of girls were placed in an urn andthe men woulddraw out the name of a girl at random who would thenbecome theirdate for the remaining festival.When Christianity came to Rome, they tried toChristianize thisobscene yet popular festival by replacing the names ofgirls bythose of saints. The men were then supposed to emulatethe saint,whose name they drew, for the rest of the year.However this attemptproved unsuccessful and the use of girls' namesreturned.Many associated it with Cupid (the virtually naked godof love), whois the central character of Valentine's Dayparaphernalia, whoshoots people with his arrows to make them fall inlove. His motheris said to be Venus (goddess of love) and apparentlythe rose washer favourite flower.Another tradition speaks of a Saint Valentine who waskilled on 14thFeb. by Emperor Claudius for secretly arranging themarriages of hissoldiers whom he had banned from marriage. The Bishopis said tohave fallen in love with the jailer's daughter duringhisimprisonment and wrote her a letter signed `YourValentine', whichbecame a tradition for people to come. In 496 PopeGelasiusofficially replaced the pagan festival of 15th Febwith StValentine's Day on14th Feb.Valentine's Day TodayWhatever the origin of this day, today it seems tohave returned toits pagan, vulgar roots with the child-god cupid andopen datingbeing very much a part of it. It is celebrated in manyparts of theworld in different ways. For instance, in France, agirl befriendsthe first boy she sees in the morning and if thisrelationship lastsfor a year, they end up getting engaged on the nextValentine's Day.The Valentine lottery caused severe problems in Franceand wasbanned completely in 1776. Later Italy, Hungary,Austria and Germanyalso rid themselves of this obscene custom.

Re: [IslamCity] THE VIRTUES OF ALLAH'S SACRED MONTH OF MUHARRAM - PART 1
Which day is Aashooraa?
Al-Nawawi (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: Aashooraa and Taasooaa are two elongated names [the vowels are elongated] as is stated in books on the Arabic language. Our companions said: Aashooraa is the tenth day of Muharram and Taasooaa is the ninth day. This is our opinion, and that of the majority of scholars. This is the apparent meaning of the ahaadeeth and is what we understand from the general wording. It is also what is usually understood by scholars of the language. (al-Majmoo)
Al-Shaafa'i and his companions, Ahmad, Ishaaq and others said: It is mustahabb to fast on both the ninth and tenth days, because the Prophet (Sal) fasted on the tenth, and intended to fast on the ninth.
On this basis it may be said that there are varying degrees of fasting Aashooraa, the least of which is to fast only on the tenth and the best of which is to fast the ninth as well. The more one fasts in Muharram, the better it is.
Muharram on 31.1.06.?

THE VIRTUES OF ALLAHS SACRED MONTH OF MUHARRAM ANDFASTING ON AASHOORAAPraise be to Allaah, the Lord of the Worlds, and peace and blessings beupon our Prophet Muhammad, the Seal of the Prophetsand Chief of the Messengers, and upon all his familyand companions.Allahs sacred month of Muharram is a blessed andimportant month. It is the first month of the Hijricalendar and is one of the four sacred monthsconcerning which Allaah says (interpretation of themeaning):Verily, the number of months with Allaah is twelvemonths (in a year), so it was ordained by Allaah onthe Day when He created the heavens and the earth; ofthem, four are sacred. That is the right religion, sowrong not yourselves therein
[al-Tawbah 9:36]Abu Bakrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) reportedthat the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah beupon him) said: The year is twelve months of whichfour are sacred, the three consecutive months ofDhul-Qadah, Dhul-Hijjah and Muharram, and RajabMudar which comes between Jumaada and Shabaan.(Reported by al-Bukhaari, 2958).Muharram is so called because it is a sacred(muharram) month and to confirm its sanctity.Allaahs words (interpretation of the meaning): sowrong not yourselves therein
mean do not wrongyourselves in these sacred months, because sin inthese months is worse than in other months.It was reported that Ibn Abbaas said that this phrase(so wrong not yourselves therein
) referred to all themonths, then these four were singled out and madesacred, so that sin in these months is more seriousand good deeds bring a greater reward.Qutaadah said concerning this phrase (so wrong notyourselves therein
) that wrongdoing during the sacredmonths is more serious and more sinful that wrongdoingat any other time. Wrongdoing at any time is a seriousmatter, but Allaah gives more weight to whichever ofHis commands He will. Allaah has chosen certain onesof His creation. He has chosen from among the angelsMessengers and from among mankind Messengers. He chosefrom among speech the remembrance of Him (dhikr). Hechose from among the earth the mosques, from among themonths Ramadaan and the sacred months, from among thedays Friday and from among the nights Laylat al-Qadr,so venerate that which Allaah has told us to venerate.People of understanding and wisdom venerate the thingsthat Allaah has told us to venerate.

Allah will establish in strength those who believe, with the word

ASA, Man yall sho can be cold on poor ole mike, haha. Of course I too condemn what he has admitted, that as a grown azz man, he was sleeping in bed with other peoples children overnight. However, I have to respect the court's decision that he was not proven guilty of molesting any of them. And as a Muslim, we are taught to give people the benefit of the doubt. So I am hoping Mike has learned his lesson, and that his interest in converting to Islam is sincere, and based on his true belief that Allah is the One and Only God, and that Prophet Muhammad is his servant and messenger. Until he does something that is inconsistent with Islamic principle, I can only admire him for turning his focus to the religious realm. I am not predicting that he is going to do wrong, or judge his motives and/or intentions, because those can not be proved or defended. I wll observe reports on his behavior, to witness whether they are within or outside of the boundaries of Islamic principle.

He said, "Adhere to the group of Muslims and their Chief." I asked, "If there is neither a group (of Muslims) nor a chief (what shall I do)?"

Subject: [IslamCity] Weak Determination
Weak Determination It may be described thus - a person accepts the call of a mission with earnestness. In the beginning, he shows much passion towards it. But his interest fades with the passage of time. He then shows no sign of interest in that mission nor retains any sincere attachment with the group engaged in the mission; which he had joined willingly. The first sign of weak determination is the attitude of dodging work. One tries to escape from taking up responsibilities. He begins to avoid the employment of his time, labour and money in the way of his mission, and begins to give preference to every other worldly inte! rest in comparison to the cause he had adopted as aim of life. It is not a serious matter if a person gets lazy in due course and becomes inactive, but once a weakness gets the upper hand, other faults begin to show themselves. The person invents different pretexts for this inaction and comes up with lame excuses. This sets the stage of moral degradation for the person. The person finds fault with the attitude of others only to hide his own drawbacks. This betrays moral bankruptcy. Every individual and group taking up the mission of reform and reconstruction should remain aware of the danger of weakness of determination and get ready for its eradication as soon as initial signs of the vice appear.

Re: [IslamCity] Face Veil Banned at Imperial College
Brother Khan Zahid
Laments:
The niqab has been banned at Imperial College, London! A recent dress code policy, passed by the Management Board of Imperial College on 21st October, states, employees and students should refrain from wearing clothing which obscures the face such as a full or half veil.
My comments:
The Management of this college, is doing the right thing in this regard.
What the Muslims fail to adopt ( or correct) or overdo things in excess of what is actually required, Allahs Mercy steps in to correct the situation in ways which we cannot understand.
When the rule is: not obligatory to cover the face, or the hands below the writs, in contravention, we do something else, and this is the result.!
What is the ruling for wearing the 'Niqaab' (face-veil) these days, and gloves? And further, if she feelsthere is a chance of 'fitnah' so she wants to wear this,but the parents refuse to let her, then what should shedo?Shaykh Muhammad Naasir ad-Deen al-Albaani
Ans. If their refusal only refers to her not covering her face and hands, then she has to obey her parents in that,but if their refusal includes more than that, then,"There is no obedience to the creation in disobedience to the Creator." Since covering the body except for the face and hands is obligatory for the Muslim woman, andcovering her face and hands is not obligatory but'mustahabb' (recommended). So if the parents do not wanther to cover her face and hands, then there is no harm inher obeying them and no sin in it, as opposed to whatwould be the case if they wished her to uncover otherthan that, in which case she owes no obedience to themsince that is a sin.
May sanity prevail.

Face Veil Banned at Imperial College
Issue Date: 2005-12-10
BACKGROUND
The niqab has been banned at Imperial College, London! A recent dress code policy, passed by the Management Board of Imperial College on 21st October, states, employees and students should refrain from wearing clothing which obscures the face such as a full or half veil. While the policy also states that religious reasons will be considered, thi! s will not be of any comfort to any Sisters who are continuously stoped to reveal their face, and will have to walk around campus with an air of suspicion surrounding them.Furthermore, Muslim student and staff have had their regular location for Jummah taken away from them, without a permanent alternative being provided. FOSIS has already been made aware of other universities who are taking steps to remove prayer rooms from campuses.
ACTION PLAN
We strongly urge you to take the appropriate steps to stop these actions against Muslim students. Please write to Imperial College London (contact details below) urging the university to revoke these policies which are a direct violation of the values and beliefs of this country and will only lead to further isolation and discontentment within communities. Also state that it is imperative that Muslims ! are given somewhere to carry out their religious obligations. Please sign the online petition which will be sent to the University. This is available at http://new.petitiononline.com/mal2034/petition.html. Make dua for the Brothers and Sisters at Imperial College.Contact details:Rector: Sir Richard Sykes (Chair of Management board)Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Telephone: +44 (0)20 7594 5001Deputy Rector: Professor Sir Leszek BorysiewiczEmail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Telephone: +44 (0)20 7594 5005Press Officer: Abigail SmithEmail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Telephone: +44 (0)20 7594 6701It is imperative that we act now.

Assalam o Alaikum
I address here to all Muslim brothers who shave their beards. Grow beards as it is the Sunnah of Prophet Mohammad (SalAllaho Alaihi Wasallam) and is like in Islam. Sisters are also advised to ask the gents of their families to grow beards. Dont be lost in mak! ing yourself attractive to Na-Mehram women. It is a sin. Why do you waste your time early morning by starting your day with shave! Many of you neglect even Qaza (late) Salat-e-Fajr (morning prayer) but you do not miss shaving your beards! Shaving beards is the practice of Pagans. Your appearance should look like a Muslim man! Make your appearance such that no one should ask you what your religion is? Today many people grow French beards just for prevailing fashion. This kind of beard does not fulfill the requirement of beard and is equal to shaving.
Narrated Nafi': Ibn Umar said, The Prophet said, 'Do the opposite of what the pagans do. Keep the beards and cut the moustaches short.' Whenever Ibn 'Umar performed the Hajj or 'Umra, he used to hold his beard with his hand and cut whatever moustaches. Ibn Umar used to cut his moustache so short that the whiteness of his skin (above the ! upper lip) was visible, and he used to cut (the hair) between his moustaches and his beard. (Book #72, Hadith #780)
Narrated Ibn 'Umar: Allah's Apostle said, "Cut the moustaches short and leave the beard (as it is)." (Book #72, Hadith #781)
Prophet Mohammad (SalAllaho Alaihi Wasallam) has warned us about the Fitna which will rise from the East. They will be the people who shave their beards, by neglecting the way of the Prophet!
Narrated Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri: The Prophet said, "There will emerge from the East some people who will recite the Quran but it will not exceed their throats and who will go out of (renounce) the religion (Islam) as an arrow passes through the game, and t! hey will never come back to it unless the arrow, comes back to the middle of the bow (by itself) (i.e., impossible). The people asked, "What will their signs be?" He said, "Their sign will be the habit of shaving (of their beards). (Fateh Al-Bari, Page 322, Vol. 17th) (Book #93, Hadith #651)
Wake up Muslim men ! Where are you lost? Angel Izraeel is following you to take away your soul! Grow your beards before meeting Allah!

[IslamCity] Trust in Allah
TRUST IN ALLAH
This is the magical word to make ones life smooth.
As you get paid for your work, so Allah rewards you for all your efforts and endeavours. How much sincere effort is there in such deeds, so will be your rewards which will be very much more than what you deserve.
So strive towards Him , seek His Help with the full hope that His Bounties are sure to reach you, but this will be in ways that you would not know when and how this comes.
Be constant, and adopt a system of life devoting a set time especially in the early mornings in prayers and reading the Quran and understanding this.
But to achieve all this, one has to believe in Him and His Prophet
6:59 - With Him are the keys of the Unseen the treasures that none knoweth but He. He knoweth whatever there is on the earth and in the sea. Not a leaf doth fall but with His knowledge: there is not a grain in the darkness (or depths) of the earth nor anything fresh or dry (green or withered) but is (inscribed) in a Record Clear (to those who can read).

Re: [IslamCity] Blogs Updated
How difficult you made it to join your blogs.Yet you turn down over and over again.
Make things easy and simple .
Anyway, this is my comments on Salem's story:-
Touching story no doubt.About Jumu'ah - points to note:1. Children are exempted from attending Jumu'ah- but good to attend.2. Salem went late to Masjid for Jumu'ah with his father. So they should have taken the rear seat instead of searching for the front row. I doing so they would have had to cross over the shoulders of so many. This is prohibited. 3. Children attending Jumu'ah should be placed behind the elders and behind them would be (any females).

Students' fury at ban on hoodies and Islam veilsNovember 24, 2005LAURA CLARK and STEPHANIE CONDRON24 November 2005A leading university has banned students from wearing Islamic headscarves and hooded tops in a security clampdown.Imperial College London has ruled that 'hoodies' and veils which obscure the face pose a threat in the wake of the London bombings.Guards have been ordered to challenge 'unrecognisable individuals' and remove them from campus if they refuse to expose their faces.All staff and students at the university, which has a large Muslim population, have been told they must wear photo identity cards, and security staff must be able to compare their face to the picture.But angry students are claiming the new code is an attack on their freedom.Is security a valid excuse for banning veils? Tell us using the reader comments link at the bottom of the page...The code stipulates: "Clothing that obscures an individual's face is not allowed on any of the college's campuses."Employees and students should refrain from wearing clothing which obscures the face, such as a full or half veil, or hooded tops or scarves worn across the face."It adds that the university will 'sympathetically consider' any student's complaint that the rules conflict with their religious belief.Clamp down on extremistsThe code has been introduced at Imperial following an order from Education Secretary Ruth Kelly that all universities clamp down on student extremists following the July terror attacks.Muslim leaders were also asked to help 'identify and isolate' potential extremists on campuses.Earlier this year, an academic report named Imperial College as one of 31 universities which has harboured terrorists.The study, by security experts at Brunel University, claimed the institution provided a base for extreme Islamic organisations.But Sarah Khatib, deputy president of Imperial's student union, said members are unhappy with the code."We all understand that the college wants to identify people, so we're trying to find a middle way," she said."People have happily accepted the fact that there is increased security and they have to wear their swipe cards."But they aren't happy about the hoodies. People like wearing them and when it's cold the hoods are necessary. They feel it is an infringement on freedom."'Civil rights issue'Inayat Bunglawala, spokesman for the Muslim Council of Britain, said it would be unfortunate if women who wear the burka out of religious conviction were penalised.He said: "We hope the university would work out some sort of arrangement so if a student does believe part of their faith requirement is to wear one they can continue with their studies."In today's world we understand there has to be security, but measures should not be so drastic as to prevent Muslim women taking up higher education, especially as they are being encouraged to do so."Imperial, one of the most prestigious universities in the country, is known for its maths and science degrees.On campus yesterday, environmental technology student Nanna Baldvinsdottir said: "I think it's a civil rights issue."Even if it affects just three people, I think they have the right to go their own way, whatever their background."Its nobody's business. It's very imperialist to tell people what they can wear."Earlier this year, a Muslim girl took her school to court after being told she could not wear traditional Islamic dress.Court of Appeal judges ruled that the school had unlawfully excluded her, denying her the right to practise her religion or provide her with an education.Source: The Daily Mail

LIFE MUST GO ON By: Muhammad Kamran RifatMore than six weeks have passed. But still I have not been able to overcome the shocks and surprise which I under went with in a short period of few minutes.On the fateful morning of 8th October I was enjoying a deep peaceful sleep of ignorance after having Sehri. Nothing seemed to wake me up. But suddenly my bed of roses started to wobble like anything. I thought some one is using third degree in an attempt to wake me up, thinking so I opened my eyes clumsily. To my utter dismay no one was around my bed, in reality not even in my room. At that point I heard sound of get up and come outside it is an earthquake of grave nature. The jolts continued and continued as seconds turned into minutes one after another. I could sense and see the walls vacillating as if they are dancing to some tunes. Later on I was glued to television to know more about the earthquake and the disaster it caused. Panic crept in; people started mourning calling their friends and relatives to enquire about their safety. The earthquake quavered Islamabad and devastated a belt of NWFP and Azad Kashmir. The margalla towers in Islamabad and number of houses, school, hospitals and government offices in the NWFP and Azad Kashmir were razed to the ground. The enormity of the disaster caused by the earthquake was not known let alone the magnitude, until the late afternoon. The first report came of the margalla towers and then of the two buildings in Lahore, which were left to debris only. Then much later came the news of the devastation in NWFP and Azad Kashmir.People started rushing towards Islamabad and NWFP to know about their dear ones from all parts of Pakistan. There were hues and cries all around. Amidst those hues and cries the people started stated removing the debris to find their near and dear ones. The government and official sources took some time to mobilize the resources, some time was lost but as the saying goes better late than never, the sources did came late but they did a wonderful job and still doing. The earthquake left hundreds of thousand of people dead, wounded and homeless. Suddenly there was a need of gigantic relief and rehabilitation operation to be surfaced as early as possible. The nation woke up for good and responded to the call efficiently and effectively. On the late afternoon of 9th October the first truck carrying the relief goods reached Chaklala airbase, a thumping contribution and effort on the part of University of Engineering and Technology. Kudos and accolades to all the students. Relief camps were set up virtually in every part of the country and the major relief and rehabilitation activity was on the move. The nation stood united to the cause and contributed in every possible way. Volunteers started rushing towards the affected areas along with doctors and Non Government Organizations, not to forget the relief goods. The media was not far behind and their contribution in wakening up the spirit in the nation is vital and unforgettable. Everyone from students to celebrities got involved in the relief and rehabilitation activity. The nation really stood united for this noble cause. I have never seen such a unity and gargantuan relief effort in my 27 years of life. Kudos to the whole nation, but the unity and the contributions must not end as it is only he beginning and we have long distance to cover in terms of relief, recovery and rehabilitation.It would be unfair on my part if I do not mention here the donations which came and are still pouring in from the rest of the world including the expatriates. The relief goods, doctors, cash and kind, helicopters, rescue teams, you name it and it is there. Much has been said and written about the relief and rehabilitation activities the good and the short comings, lack of disaster management and etc, so I will not be concentrating on them but would like to mention few unfortunate incidents and tell people what they are afraid of knowing. Many people whom I know went there and they had praises for the relief work which is going on there and also some unfortunate incidents to tell. One such is worth mentioning in which people

Subject: [IslamCity] Q: What is POP3 Email?
[image: Computers 101]*Q:What is POP3 Email? **A:*POP3 means "post office protocol, version 3". It is a protocol for gettinge-mail off of a web server. If you use Outlook Express, Outlook, NetscapeMail, or Eudora you're using POP3.Some web-based e-mail accounts use this protocol as well. I know thatHotmail and Yahoo (for a price) allow you to get your mail via POP3. AOLdoes not.DewaN[image: Tip of the Day]*Organize Your Documents*Do you dump every file you create into your My Documents folder? Is it thedigital equivalent to a messy 7-year-old's room? Well, never fear, thecomputer cleaner is here! (And I can't believe I just said that, much lessgoing to publish it.)Anyhow, the best way to keep things organized is not to create any documentsin the first place. Think about it. No docs, no mess. After all, you onlygot a computer so you could read this newsletter right? Right??OK since that probably won't work for ya, let's go with the second best way.Try setting up sub-folders inside the My Documents folder. Make one for each"category" of document that you have.For example, you could have a folder for letters, one for invoices, anotherfor sales letters, and so on. It makes keeping track of stuff much easier.Here's how to set it up:1. Click the *Start button, Documents, My Documents* (XP users, hit the *Start* button, *My Documents*). This should open your *My Documents* folder.2. Create a new folder with an appropriate name (right-click any blank areaand select New, Folder from the resulting menu).3. Finally, drag any documents that belong in that folder to it. That's it.You can create as many of these little sub-folders under the *MyDocuments*folder as you need.Oh, one final suggestion: you may want to make yearly folders, too. Forexample, at the end of this year, make a folder called *2005 Docs*. Thenmove everything you've made, folders and all, into that folder. Gives you afresh start for the new year. OK, it's the Windows equivalent of shovingtoys under the bed, but who cares? It works!Now, if only I could apply this technique to my daughter's room!DewaNName:Dewan RazibCall :+880192012620SMS:+880192012620Email:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Brothers and sisters, its very essential to understand the whole concept of Ramadhan. The main purpose of Ramadhan is to increase our worship to Allah and to ask Allah swt for forgiveness. Within this framework we must help each other in times of need, help the poor , keep away from haraam activities, to completely refrain from backbiting and ask for forgiveness to anyone whowe have hurt intentionally or unintentionally. If Allah swt has given you so much, can you please spend your wealth wisely? In this month, many families have invited friends to Iftari dinner and in essence the amount spent on making dinner can accumulate to around £100. SubhanAllah...An Iftari Feast. Iftari is not suppose to be afeast ! where there are around 8-10 different dishes made combined with desert and then your stomach is so stuffed that you consider to oversight the Taraweeh prayers!Its not a matter of producing8 different dishes and spending so much money on feeding your guests! Open your eyes! Look around you.Alhumdulilah, mostMuslims in the UK mashAllah have enoughneeds to open our fastand satisfy our hunger. Observe the reports on TV very closely and look at how other Muslims are suffering. How can you entertain guests and spend over £100 on preparing food for them when there are beautiful innocent young kids who have lost their whole family within seconds? They are sitting , crying and hungry. We sit here in the UK and spend so much in the grocery shops to feed our guests who already have so much as it is ! Where has your shame gone? How can you even think of spending so much on feeding a family who already have Allahs blessings and there are Muslims starving in other countries? Where is YOUR SHAME? Today a child is sitting alone with no family and his body requires essential nutrients and food to survive. Instead of spending £100 on feeding your guests for an Iftari feast, can you please spend the money where it IS needed and gain Allah swts reward? After all the natural disasters that have happened this year throughout the world, its essential for us to think how we are going to spend our wealth. Please stop these Iftarifeasts and think about that child who has lost his/her parents and is so so hungry. How would you like it if your child was sitting hungry today , clothes torn , scared stiff and crying his heart out. ? Tell me please ?? Please stop being cruel and quit having expensive Iftaribanquets where you are inviting each other for huge dinner events.The moneycan be spent much more wisely. Please think carefully how you intend to spend your money. I am attaching a few pictures in this email. Have a close look at these people who are looking for help. They need our money now.

Something to think about :
Sunan of Abu-DawoodHadith 4329 Narrated byAbdullah ibn Amr ibn al-'As
When we were around the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him), he mentioned the period of commotion (fitnah) saying: When you see the people that their covenants have been impaired, (the fulfilling of) the guarantees becomes rare, and they become thus (interwining his fingers). I then got up and said: What should I do at that time, may Allah make me ransom for you? He replied: Keep to your house, control your tongue, accept what you approve, abandon what you disapprove, attend to your own affairs, and leave alone the affairs of the generality.
Sunan of Abu-DawoodHadith 4251 Narrated byAbuHurayrah
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: There will be civil strife (fitnah) which will render people deaf, dumb and blind regarding what is right. Those who contemplate it will be drawn by it, and giving rein to the tongue during it will be like smiting with the sword.

In the name of Allah most gracious most merciful,
Assalaamuaalikum wa rahmatuallahi wa barakatuhu,
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith 7.128Narrated byIbn Umar
The Prophet said, "All of you are guardians and are responsible for your wards. The ruler is a guardian and the man is a guardian of his family; the lady is a guardian and is responsible for her husband's house and his offspring; and so all of you are guardians and are responsible for your wards."
5:35O ye who believe! do your duty to Allah seek the means of approach unto Him and strive with might and main in His cause: that ye may prosper.
24:54Say: "Obey Allah and obey the Apostle: but if ye turn away he is only responsible for the duty placed on him and ye for that placed on you. If ye obey him ye shall be on right guidance. The Apostle's duty is only to preach the clear (Message)."
3:147All that they said was: "Our Lord! forgive us our sins and anything we may have done that transgressed our duty; establish our feet firmly and help us against those that resist faith."148And Allah gave them a reward in this world and the excellent reward of the Hereafter. For Allah loveth those who do good.

Shah Abdul Hannan - Original Message - From: "maskamalbd" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 05, 2005 7:12 PM Subject: Re: ZAKAT Dear Brother/Sisters, Assalamualikum. Could you please explain me why Zakat is catagorized as 'Wajib' in this mail. Also I found the same in different articles. We donot say Salat is 'Wajib', although most of the cases both came in the same verses in Al-Quran. So what is the basic difference between 'Wajib' and 'Fard'? Actually, I was asked the same from someone. But I could not answer him. Waassalam Kamal Kyushu University, Fukuoka, Japan Value of Shariah Rules (Hukm Sharii) Hukm Sharii is the communication from the lawgiver (Allah and the Prophet[SM] on the authority of Allah) concerning the conduct of Mukallaf (on whom law is applicable, that is, a sane and adult person) which may be in the form of a demand or an option or only as an enactment. When the communication is made in the form of a demand or option, the Hukm is called "Al-Hukm al-taklifi (defining law). If the communication is made in the form of an enactment of a Cause or condition only, it is called al-Hukm al Wadi (declaratory law) [see explanation below ]. Al-Hukm al- taklifi (defining law) maybe in the form of Fard, Wajib, Mandub, Mubah, Makruh and Haram.According to majority, Fard and wazib are synonymous.If there is binding demand from the lawgiver to do something, it is wazib. However, the Hanafi's consider the demand Fard when both text and the meaning are definitive (qati) and wazib when either the text or meaning is speculative (Zanni - because liable to interpretation of meaning or investigation of authenticity). Difference between Fard and Wazib has important consequence. Denial of binding nature of a command established by definitive proof (Fard by Qati evidence) leads to unbelief. However, denial of Wazib (according to Hanafi's) or 2nd category of Fard (according to the majority) lead to transgression (Fisq).Wazib (and Fard) has been variously classified into the following : a)Wazib ayni (personal obligation of all Mukallaf) and Wazib Kafai (collective obligation, performance of some of the community would suffice). b)Wazib Muwaqqat (Wazib contingent on time-limit such as Salah and Siam) and Wazib Mutlaq (absolute wazib which is free from time limit - such as Hajj). c)Wazib Muhaddad (quantified Wazib, such as Zakah and Salah) and Wazib Ghair Muhaddad (unquantified Wazib such as charity to poor, paying Mohr to wife). A consequence of distinction between quantified wazib and unquantified wazib is that quantified wazib becomes a liability on the person who has not paid it in proper time. Mandub (recommended) denotes a demand not binding on the Mukallaf. Compliance earns spiritual reward but no punishment is inflicted for failure. This is the difference between Wazib and Mandub.Examples of Mandub are creation of charitable endowment (Waqf) giving alms to the poor and attending to sick.Mandub is also called Sunnah, Nafl and Mustahab. Sunnah (Mandub) has been clasified into (a) emphatic sunnah (Sunnah-al Muakkadah (examples are adhan, attending congregational prayer) and (b) Supererogatory Sunnah (Sunnah Ghair al-Muakkadah). Examples are Nafl prayers and non-obligatory charity. Neglect of sunnah al-Muakkadah is blameworthy but not punishable. Neglect of Sunnah Gair al-Muakkadah is neither blameworthy nor punishable.Examples of Mandub in the Quran can be seen in verses 2:282, 24:3. Haram (also known as Mahzur) is a binding demand of lawgiver to abandon something. The level of proof required to establish prohibition is the same as Fard (as explained by early Hanafi Ulama) and of Wazib (as explained by the majority Ulama of Usul). The texual evidence for Haram may occur in various forms such as : a) It may start with "Hurrimat alaykum" (forbidden to you). [Quran - 5:3]. b) It may be conveyed in negative terms such as "la taqtulu" (do not kill), "la takulu (do not eat or take).[Quran - 5:90; 2:188]. c)It may be in the form of a command to avoid (Quran - 5:90,to avoid wine-drinking and gambling). d) It may be stated that it is not permissible (La yahilla lakum,Quran - 4:19) e)Prohibition may be proved by punishment provided for a conduct (Quran - verses on hadd penalties and also verses mentioning punishment of fire in the hereafter, Prohibition has also been classified into : a)Haram li-dhatih (which is forbidden for its own sake (such as wine, gambling) and b)Haram li Ghayrih (which is

Will they be in Hell forever ? After sometime in hell, will they be sent to heaven, after the torments. Intercession for whom.? wassalam abdeen ---Original Message--- From: Muhammad Abdul-Rahman Date: 10/10/05 01:02:08 To: islamcity@yahoogroups.com Subject: [IslamCity] The people of Hell will abide therein forever The people of Hell will abide therein forever Question: Will the torment of the people of Hell in Hell be neverending, or will there come a time when it will end?. Answer: Praise be to Allaah. The people of Hell will remain in Hell being tormented without end. This is indicated by a great deal of evidence from the Qur'aan and Sunnah. Shaykh Ibn `Uthaymeen was asked: Is Hell eternal or will it come to an end? He replied: What is definite is that it is eternal, and no other view is known among the salaf. Hence the scholars made this one of their tenets of faith, so that we believe that Hell is eternal and will last forever. This is a matter concerning which there is no doubt, because Allaah has mentioned the eternal nature of Hell in three places in the Qur'aan: 1 _ In Soorat al-Nisa, where He says (interpretation of the meaning): "Verily, those who disbelieve and did wrong [by concealing the truth about Prophet Muhammad and his message of true Islamic Monotheism written in the Tawraatt (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel) with them]; Allaah will not forgive them, nor will He guide them to any way. Except the way of Hell, to dwell therein forever" [al-Nisa' 4:168-169] 2 _ In Soorat al-Ahzaab, where He says (interpretation of the meaning): "Verily, Allaah has cursed the disbelievers, and has prepared for them a flaming Fire (Hell) Wherein they will abide for ever" [al-Ahzaab 33:64] 3 _ In Soorat al-Jinn, where He says (interpretation of the meaning): "and whosoever disobeys Allaah and His Messenger, then verily, for him is the fire of Hell, he shall dwell therein forever" [al-Jinn 72:23] If Allaah had mentioned the eternal nature of Hell in one place, that would have been sufficient, so how about if He has mentioned it in three places? It is strange that a group of scholars are of the view that Hell will cease to exist, based on false arguments which go against what is indicated by the Qur'aan and Sunnah, and they misinterpreted the meanings of the Qur'aan and Sunnah and said that the words "dwell therein forever" mean for as long as it exists. How can this be correct? If they are to dwell therein forever, that means that Hell itself must last forever, as they will be in it. If a person is to dwell in some place forever, then the place where he will be must last forever as well, because if that place will cease to exist then he cannot dwell forever. The verse is very clear, and the arguments which go against the text are to be rejected. This difference of opinion which was narrated from a few scholars is to be rejected, because it goes against the clear text which every believer must believe in. Whoever goes against it because of some argument that he comes up with may be excused before Allaah. But whoever studies the texts of the Qur'aan and Sunnah will know that the view that Hell will last forever is the truth which cannot be ignored. Majmoo' Fataawa Ibn `Uthaymeen, 2/55-56 It says in Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa'imah: There is a great deal of evidence in the Qur'aan and Sunnah to show that Hell will never cease to exist, and that the kaafireen will abide in Hell forever and will never come out of it. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): "This, because you took the Revelations of Allaah (this Qur'aan) in mockery, and the life of the world deceived you. So this Day, they shall not be taken out from there (Hell), nor shall they be returned to the worldly life (so that they repent to Allaah, and beg His Pardon for their sins)" [al-Jaathiyah 45:35] "Surely, those who disbelieved in Our Ayaat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.), We shall burn them in Fire. As often as their skins are roasted through, We shall change them for other skins that they may taste the punishment" [al-Nisa' 4:56] "but he whom He sends astray, for such you will find no Awliyaa' (helpers and protectors) besides Him, and We shall gather them together on the Day of Resurrection on their faces, blind, dumb and deaf; their abode will be Hell; whenever it abates, We shall increase for them the fierceness of the Fire. That is their recompense, because they denied Our Ayaat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revela

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 10/06/05 02:40:32 To: islamcity@yahoogroups.com Subject: [Norton AntiSpam] Re: [IslamCity] Women : Covering the face (veil) Assalamualaikum brother Irfanullah FROM: Shaykh Muhammad Naasir ad-Deen al-Albaani What is the ruling for wearing the 'Niqaab' (face- veil) these days, and gloves? And further, if she feels there is a chance of 'fitnah' so she wants to wear this, but the parents refuse to let her, then what should she do? Ans. If their refusal only refers to her not covering her face and hands, then she has to obey her parents in that, but if their refusal includes more than that, then, There is no obedience to the creation in disobedience to the Creator. Since covering the body except for the face and hands is obligatory for the Muslim woman, and covering her face and hands is not obligatory but 'mustahabb' (recommended). So if the parents do not want her to cover her face and hands, then there is no harm in her obeying them and no sin in it, as opposed to what would be the case if they wished her to uncover other than that, in which case she owes no obedience to them since that is a sin. What is the ruling regarding a woman's wearing a scarf on her head? Ans. That is not enough - she has to wear a 'khimaar' which covers the head and chest. The scarf is not loose fitting and does not cover enough. Should not the shoulders also be covered by it? Yes, that is the 'khimaar'. It is a wide cover covering the head and shoulders. When we say that it covers the chest, then it covers the shoulders since it is wide. But as regards the head-scarf we often see a woman wearing it revealing a part of the neck due to it, but the 'khimaar' covers the neck and shoulder, and Allaah ta'aala orders that saying: WALYADRIBNA BIKHUMURIHINNA 'ALAA JUYOOBIHINNA The head-scarf is as they say these days a compromise, and there is no such thing in Islaam! Many people hold that the khimaar' is a covering for the face. Ans. That is ignorance with regard to the language. The 'khimaar' is a covering for the head and the man also wears the khimaar - putting it upon his head - the same as for the woman. He ta'aala said: WALYADRIBNA BIKHUMURIHINNA 'ALAA JUYOOBIHINNA If the khimaar covered the face then He ta'aala would not say WALYADRIBNA meaning pull/draw together, but he would have said let fall [ using the verb 'sadala' ]. This is ignorance regarding the language NOTE: Whoever intends to marry a woman should look at her. She is allowed to pray with the face uncovered, but must cover the head. If she prays with her head uncovered, then she must repeat such prayers. The awrah of the free woman is her whole body except the face and the two hands upto the wrist. Prophet (Sal) forbade the woman in IHRAM to put on the face veil or gloves She may need to uncover them for such day to day matters as buying, selling, giving, taking, etc. It is Al-Nur 24:31 which deals with the rule of covering the Muslim womans awrah. Ibn Jarir explains the phrase Beyond what may decently be apparent thereof on Nur 24:31 means that they should not reveal their adornments except to people who are their mahram (those who are not allowed for them in marriage) the hidden ones the anklet, the two bracelets, the two ear-rings and the necklace which can be seen only by the husbands.,and the clothes this can be seen by anyone. (Ibn Masud) Maliki and Hanafi say that the apparent ornaments are the face and hand. Hanbali say that every part of the woman is awrah.

Re: [IslamCity] Taraweeh Salaat and ramadhan
Number of rakahs of qiyaam The number of rakahs is eleven, and it is preferable in our opinion not to exceed this number, following the practice of the Messenger of Allaah (Sal) because he never did more than that in his life. Aaishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) was asked about how he prayed in Ramadaan. She said, "The Messenger of Allaah never prayed more than eleven rakahs (of qiyaam), whether during Ramadaan or any other time. He would pray four, and dont ask me how beautiful or how long they were. Then he would pray four, and dont ask me how beautiful or how long they were. Then he would pray three." (Reported by al-Bukhaari, Muslim and others). Women can pray qiyaam in congregation Women can attend the prayers too, as is stated in the hadeeth of Abu Dharr referred to above. Indeed, it is permissible to appoint an imaam just for them, apart from the imaam of the men. It was proven that when Umar (Ral) gathered the people to pray qiyaam, he appointed Ubayy ibn Kab to lead the men and Sulaymaan ibn Abi Hathmah to lead the women. Arfajah al-Thaqafi said: " Ali ibn Abi Taalib (Ral) used to command the people to pray during the night in Ramadaan, and he would appoint an imaam for the men and an imaam for the women. I was the imaam for the women." I say: this is fine in my view so long as the mosque is big enough so that they will not disturb one another. However, is a person is praying qiyaam by himself, he can make it as long as he wishes; if others agree with the imaam, he may also make it as long as he wishes. The longer it is, the better, but a person should not go to extremes and spend the whole night in qiyaam, except on rare occasions, following the example of the Prophet (Sal) who said: "The best guidance is the guidance of Muhammad." If a person is praying as an imaam, he should make it only as long as is easy for the people behind him, because the Prophet (Sal) said: "If any of you leads the people in prayer, let him make it short, because among them are the young and the old, the weak, and those who have pressing needs. But if he is praying alone, let him make it as long as he likes."abdeen ---Original Message--- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 09/26/05 23:59:35 To: islamcity@yahoogroups.com Subject: [Norton AntiSpam] [IslamCity] Taraweeh Salaat and ramadhan JAMIATUL ULAMA (KZN) ISLAMIC WEBSITECouncil of Muslim Theologians Taraweeh Salaat In this belated day and age, every morn heralds a new fitna that strikes at the very root of Imaan and amal. For the past fourteen hundred years, the Ummah has been performing twenty rakaats of Taraweeh without question. However a sect now claims that Taraweeh is ONLY eight rakaats, which implies that for fourteen hundred years the Ummah had deviated from the Sunnah of Nabi (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) and had performed twenty rakaats without any Shari proof. The Virtue of Taraweeh Abdullah Bin Ammar (R.A.) states that Nabi (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) said: The fast and the Quraan will both plead on behalf of the bondsmen who keeps fast in the day and recites or listens attentively to the recitation of the Quraan at night standing in the presence of Allah (in Taraweeh). The fast will say O my Lord, I had held him back from food, drink and sexual gratification, accept my intercession for him today and treat him with mercy and forgiveness. The Quraan will say, I had held him back from taking rest and sleep at night, O MY lord, accept my intercession for him today and treat him with mercy and forgiveness. The intercession of both the fast and Quraan will be accepted and he will be treated with exceptional kindness. (Baihaqi). Sayyidina Abu Saeed Al-Khudree (R.A.) narrates that Sayyidina Rasoolullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam said : When the first night of Ramadhaan dawns (comes), the doors of the skies are opened, and none of its doors are then closed until the last night of Ramadhaan. No mumin servant ( of Allah) performs salaah during its night (any night of Ramadhaan), but Allah will record for him one thousand five hundred hasanah (rewards) for every sajdah that he makes. And Allah will build a home for him in Jannah made out of red ruby, which will have sixty thousand doors, each of its doors having (interlinked to, leading to) a palace made out of gold, ornamented (beautified and decorated) with rubies. Thus, when he (the mumin) fasts on the first day of Ramadhaan, all his past sins are pardoned, and seventy thousand malaaika make istighfar for him, daily, from the time of the fajr salaah, until the sun sets. And for every sajdah that he makes during Ramadhaan, either by day or by night, there will be for him a tree, (in Jannah, so huge that) a person on horseback will ride in its shade for five hundred years.

Re: [IslamCity] Selam!
Brother Serhan,
Your concern is understandable.
Pray - you say, - in this way, we have to be praying all the time for all the countries in this world wherethere is calamity, but they are NOT praying for themselves.!
SEE:-
6:164 - Say: "Shall I seek for (my) Cherisher other than Allah when He is the Cherisher of all things (that exist)?" Every soul draws the meed of its acts on none but itself: no bearer of burdens can bear the burden of another. Your goal in the end is toward Allah: He will tell you the truth of the things wherein ye disputed. 987
987 The doctrine of personal responsiblility again. We are fully responsible for our acts ourselves: we cannot transfer the consequences to someone else. Nor can anyone vicariously atone for our sins. If people have honest doubts or differences about important questions of religion, they should not start futile disputes. All will be clear in the end. Our duty here is to maintain unity and discipline, and do the duty that comes to us. (6.164)
There is no other remedy for these ailments, what is required is to follow the Quran and the Sunnah to one's best of ability and seek Allah's help.
29:6 - And if any strive (with might and main) they do so for their own souls:
Adhere strictly to the Sunnah and follow not vainglorious boasters.
Even in the matter of Greetings - try to do this in the correct way, otherwise it becomes useless.
Assalamualaikum - and not salamun Alaykum
May Allah lead us on the straightpath.

These days the only thing we as muslims are doing is to
watch what is going on in Gazze with enormous bombs
and armies on one side and the weak resistance on the
other side. We surely knew that the Ýsrail didnot step
back from Gazze for peacefull purposes and now it is
quite clear what they are trying to do.It is almost
Ramadan, the holiest month, but things do not seem
to get better in Filistin.
At least we must pray for our brothers and sisters there.

[IslamCity] Response to questions, enquiries etc., ignoring !
Ref. the subject matter - why members ignore and fail to respond to questions - may be due to the following Hadith. ?
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith 2.45 Narrated byAmr bin Taghlib
Some property or something was brought to Allah's Apostle and he distributed it. He gave to some men and ignored the others. Later he got the news of his being admonished by those whom he had ignored. So he glorified and praised Allah and said, "Amma ba'du. By Allah, I may give to a man and ignore another, although the one whom I ignore is more beloved to me than the one whom I give. But I give to some people as I feel that they have no patience and no contentment in their hearts and I leave those who are patient and self-content with the goodness and wealth which Allah has put into their hearts and 'Amr bin Taghlib is one of them." Amr added, By Allah! Those words of Allah's Apostle are more beloved to me than the best red camels.

1326 Cf. vii. 51. and n. 1029. They ignore Allah: and Allah will ignore them. (9.67

Re: [IslamCity] Women : Covering the face (veil)
At Hajj - over 2 millions Muslim men and women. ( all strangers)! Here the women should not cover their faces in performing Hajj. But some say they should cover their faces at other times after Hajj? any comments? ---Original Message--- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 09/24/05 05:14:04 To: islamcity@yahoogroups.com Subject: [Norton AntiSpam] [IslamCity] Women : Covering the face (veil) Is it necessary for a woman to cover her face in the presence of strangers (who are not her designated Mahaarim) according to Shariáh? Answer 15617 2005-09-07 This question is answered in this article in the context of the claim that the veil or Niqaab is primarily a social requirement and custom according to the environment and custom and according to the environment and customs of a particular country. In endeavouring to answer the question, we will confine ourselves to a brief examination of the relevant Qurãnic verses. Surah An-Nur, Verses 30 and 31 And Say to the believing women to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts) and not to show off their adornment except only that which is apparent (like both eyes for necessity to see the way, or outer palms of hands or one eye or dress like veil, gloves, head-cover, apron), and to draw their veils all over Juyubihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bossoms) and not to reveal their adornment except to their husbands, or their fathers, or their husbands f! athers, or their sons, or their husbands sons, or their brothers or their brothers sons, or their sisters sons, or their (Muslim women) (i.e. sisters in Islam), or the (female) slaves whom their right hands possess, or old male servants who lack vigour, or small children who have no sense of feminine sex. And let them not stamp their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment. And all of you beg Allah to forgive you all, O believers, that you may be successful It is apparent that upon a plain reading the purpose of the verse is to eradicate promiscuity, fornication and adultery and all the preliminary steps that lead directly to the commission of such shameful acts. The references to lowering their gaze, drawing their veils over their bosoms and striking their feet to draw attention indicate that all acts or omissions which, in the ordinary course leads directly to sexual promiscuity and FITNAH are forbidden. In order to totally eradicate sexual promiscuity and FITNAH, the verse goes on to say that a woman is not permitted to display her beauty and charms except in degrees to her husband, father and the other classes of person specified in the verse. The exempt class would constitute the MAHAARIM, and any other would qualify as strangers or GHAIR MAHRAM. The principle fixed by the verse is, therefore, that a woman cannot display her beauty to any male person other than the persons exempted by the verse. It goes without saying that the face is the focal-point of a womans beauty, and the main source of attraction. Hence, the face of a woman cannot be displayed or shown to a stranger in normal circumstances whether in public or private according to the general principle fixed by the verse as stated above. She is permitted to display her beauty to the exempt class (the MAHAARIM) for obvious reasons of close contact, and because of the considerably lesser danger of sexual promiscuity and FITNAH within that class. (Zama! khshari) The Shariáh, however, is practical, dynamic and takes into account the real situations of life. A woman may - in the case of genuine need - be forced to expose her face in the presence of strangers. For example, when she appears in court to give witness, etc. It is against this background that the preceding portion of the verse they should not display their beauty and charms except what must ordinarily appear unavoidable falls into proper perspective. The words Illaa maa dhahara minhaa are in context an exception to the general rule, and cover those cases of genuine need and necessity when a woman is forced to expose her face in the presence of a stranger. That is how the great commentators of the Noble Qurãn have interpreted the verse. Take the following two examples, Women must not display any part of their beauty and charms to strangers except what cannot possibly be concealed. (Ibn Katheer) Why is the woman permitted to di! splay her external beauty and charms? Because to conceal that would cause her inconvenience. A woman is forced to deal in commodities with her own hands. She is compelled by genuine need to expose her face especially at the times of giving evidence, litigating in court and marriage. She is compelled to walk the streets and expose her feet, especially poor women. This is the meaning of illaa maa dhahara min haa that is except what the situations of ordinary life compel her to expose. (Zamakhshari) A further point is the

Our Wahabi brothers are doing it for the Americans! The Destruction Of Mecca Saudi Hardliners Wiping Out Their Own Heritage By Daniel Howden The Independent - UK8-5-5 Historic Mecca, the cradle of Islam, is being buried in an unprecedented onslaught by religious zealots. Almost all of the rich and multi-layered history of the holy city is gone. The Washington-based Gulf Institute estimates that 95 per cent of millennium-old buildings have been demolished in the past two decades. Now the actual birthplace of the Prophet Mohamed is facing the bulldozers, with the connivance of Saudi religious authorities whose hardline interpretation of Islam is compelling them to wipe out their own heritage. It is the same oil-rich orthodoxy that pumped money into the Taliban as they prepared to detonate the Bamiyan buddhas in 2000. And the same doctrine - violently opposed to all forms of idolatry - that this week decreed that the Saudis' own king be buried in an unmarked desert grave. A Saudi architect, Sami Angawi, who is an acknowledged specialist on the region's Islamic architecture, told The Independent that the final farewell to Mecca is imminent: "What we are witnessing are the last days of Mecca and Medina." According to Dr Angawi - who has dedicated his life to preserving Islam's two holiest cities - as few as 20 structures are left that date back to the lifetime of the Prophet 1,400 years ago and those that remain could be bulldozed at any time. "This is the end of history in Mecca and Medina and the end of their future," said Dr Angawi. Mecca is the most visited pilgrimage site in the world. It is home to the Grand Mosque and, along with the nearby city of Medina which houses the Prophet's tomb, receives four million people annually as they undertake the Islamic duty of the Haj and Umra pilgrimages. The driving force behind the demolition campaign that has transformed these cities is Wahhabism. This, the austere state faith of Saudi Arabia, was imported by the al-Saud tribal chieftains when they conquered the region in the 1920s. The motive behind the destruction is the Wahhabists' fanatical fear that places of historical and religious interest could give rise to idolatry or polytheism, the worship of multiple and potentially equal gods. The practice of idolatry in Saudi Arabia remains, in principle at least, punishable by beheading. This same literalism mandates that advertising posters can and need to be altered. The walls of Jeddah are adorned with ads featuring people deliberately missing an eye or with a foot painted over. These contrived imperfections are the most glaring sign of an orthodoxy that tolerates nothing which fosters adulation of the graven image. Nothing can, or can be seen to, interfere with a person's devotion to Allah. "At the root of the problem is Wahhabism," says Dr Angawi. "They have a big complex about idolatry and anything that relates to the Prophet." The Wahhabists now have the birthplace of the Prophet in their sights. The site survived redevelopment early in the reign of King Abdul al-Aziz ibn Saud 50 years ago when the architect for a library there persuaded the absolute ruler to allow him to keep the remains under the new structure. That concession is under threat after Saudi authorities approved plans to "update" the library with a new structure that would concrete over the existing foundations and their priceless remains. Dr Angawi is the descendant of a respected merchant family in Jeddah and a leading figure in the Hijaz - a swath of the kingdom that includes the holy cities and runs from the mountains bordering Yemen in the south to the northern shores of the Red Sea and the frontier with Jordan. He established the Haj Research Centre two decades ago to preserve the rich history of Mecca and Medina. Yet it has largely been a doomed effort. He says that the bulldozers could come "at any time" and the Prophet's birthplace would be gone in a single night. He is not alone in his concerns. The Gulf Institute, an independent news-gathering group, has publicised what it says is a fatwa, issued by the senior Sa

Subject: [IslamCity] PRACTICES ON THE DAY OF JUMU'AH
PRACTICES ON THE DAY OF JUMU'AHTHE FOLLOWING MA'MOOLAAT (PRACTICES) WERE MENTIONED BY SHAFIIQUL UMMAH, HADHRAT MOULANA MUHAMMAD FAAROUQ SAHEB, IN A LECTURE DELIVERED AT THE GLENEARN ROAD MASJID, DURBAN ON THURSDAY, OCTOBER 10 1996 AFTER ESHA SALAAT
Jumu'ah is from sunset on Thursday to sunset on Friday ===
These Ma'moolaat should be observed during this period.
(1)On Thursday night recite any Surah beginning with a "S'een" (Kanzul Ummaal). The Shortest of such Surahs is Suratul A'ala (Qur'an 87)
By reading this, ones previous sins are forgiven.
(2)Recite Surah Kahf (Qur'an 15:16) before or after the Jumu'ah Salaat.
It is states in the Hadith the a connection of Noor (which lasts till the following Friday) is established between the heart of the one who reads this Surah and the Ka'bah Shareef in Makkah Mukarramah. Another Hadith states that this connection is established from the heart of the reciter to the Arsh (Throne) of Allah, until the next Friday.
(3)Go to the Masjid early for the Jumu'ah Salaat. Try to be in the Masjid before the first Adhaan is called, or at least upon the commencement of the Adhaan.
The benefit of this practice is that for the following week all your affairs will be accomplished quickly and easily. Coming in the Masjid late for Jumu'ah Salaat delays worldly matters during the coming week. (Targhib)
(4)Upon entering the Masjid offer two Rakaats Tahiyyatul Masjid. (Targhib)
(5)Perform the Salaatut-Tasbeeh before or after the Friday Salaat.(Kabeeri)
(6)Make Du'a a few moments before sunset on Friday. This time is indeed sacred and extremely efficacious in the acceptance of Du'a.
Hadhrat Faatima (Radhiallaahu Anha) had instructed her maid to remind her of these moments on Friday. She would then engage in Du'a and would recite the following Du'a repeatedly, without stopping her household work. (Tahtaawi)
(7)After Asr Salaat on Friday, remain seated on your place and recite the following Durood Shareef Eighty (80) times.
The reward for this is equal to eighty (80) years of worship, and forgiveness for eighty (80) years of sins. (Fazaail-e-Durood)
(8)Recite Durood Shareef One Thousand times on Friday.
Imaam Jalaaluddin Suyyuti (Rahmatullaahi Alayhi) narrates that one who recites a thousand Durood on Friday will not die until he is shown his place in Jannat (in a dream). (Targhib)
The shortest and simplest form of Durood is:
(9)== THE FOLLOWING ARE THE ADVICE OF HADHRAT MOULANA ASHRAF ALI THANWI (RAHMATULLAAHI ALAYHI) ==
Recite Aayatul Kursi seventy (70) times
Recite seventy (70) times:
Recite seventy (70) times:
Through the blessing of this Du'a, Allah Ta'ala makes the Rizq (sustenance) and other worldly affairs of the reciter easy for the entire week ahead.

About Qunoot: "If a calamity (naazilah) befalls the Muslims, it is prescribed to say Duaa al-Qunoot after standing up from rukoo in the last rakah of each of the five daily obligatory prayers, until Allaah relieves the Muslims of that calamity" It is prescribed in Witr prayer after the rukoo (bowing), according to the more correct of the two scholarly opinions. May Allah, Praised and Exalted be He, guide us to His Way, and may He, Praised and Exalted be He, make us eligible for His pleasure, and may He, Praised and Exalted be He, make us worthy of carrying the message of His religion, and worthy of being the followers of His Prophet Mohammed, Peace and Blessing be upon him.abdeen ---Original Message--- From: "Servant of Allah-swt"@slt12.lk Date: 07/12/05 07:51:44 To: islamcity@yahoogroups.com Subject: [IslamCity] Advice to the Muslim Women in UK Advice to the Muslim Women in UK ...Following the Bombings in London Following the London bombings this morning the blame will almost inevitably fall upon portions of the Muslims community. In fact, the media frenzy has already started to whip up anxieties and fears in the British public and this could dangerously escalate towards a climate of hostility and aggression towards Muslims. Even though the perpetrators of the London Bombings have still to be identified, Tony Blair and his comrades at the G8 have already begun to use language that is usually referenced at Muslims globally. Such premature use of potentially explosive language will not to help to calm the situation, nor will it any way aid community relationships, that urgently require to be defused. The Team at unifiedummah appeal for calm amongst Muslims and call upon all religious leaders to behave responsibly in their dealings with local communities and the wider Media. It is not easy to forget the backlash that Muslim minorities in the UK suffered immediately after the attacks of the Twin Towers in America. With this still fresh in our minds, we remind all Muslims that it is our duty to protect and guard ourselves as well as one another in these testing times. Allah (swt) says: "The believers, men and women, are protectors, one of another: they enjoin what is just, and forbid what is evil, they observe regular prayers, practise regular charity, and obey Allah and His Messenger. On them will Allah pour His Mercy: for Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise" (Quran 9:71). Allah (swt) commands the Muslims to have a genuine concern for one another, to advise, assist and protect, and to safeguard one another's life, wealth and honour. In order for our Muslim brothers and sisters to avoid being in a bad predicament, we thus list the following precautions which should be observed in this difficult time. Put utmost trust in Allah. Nothing ever happens without the permission of Allah (swt), and what happens is a test and trial for us. We should therefore rely on Allah, having firm faith and conviction in Him. Call upon Allah for aid and assistance. Muhammad (saw) was of course slandered against, taunted at, abused and even fought. His companions endured similar treatment. The Prophet (saw) taught his companions to call upon Allah to relieve the suffering and protect them. He taught us some supplications for protection: BISMILAAHI-LAZEE LAA YADURRU MA'ASMIHI SHAY'UN FIL-'ARDI WA LAA FIS-SAMAA' WA HUWAS-SAMEE'UL 'ALEEM (To be recited three times in the morning and evening) BISMILLAHI TAWAKKALTU A'LALLAHI LAA HOWLA WA LAA QUWWATA ILLA BILLAH . (When leaving the house) "And when you recite the Quran, We put between you and those who believe not in the Hereafter, an invisible veil." (17:45) To be read in Arabic The Ayat ul Kursi and the last two ayahs of Surah al-Baqarah (to be recited in the evening) Taking precautions. Allah says: ' O you who believe! Take your precautions...(4:71). Islam demands that we use wisdom in dealing with such a crisis. Sisters are encouraged not to leave their homes except in cases of emergency. Volatile situations such as these can erupt at any time, and many a time sisters are deemed the easy prey and target for those who are intent on stirring up hatred for Muslims. The Prophet (saw) taught us that " A believer is not bitten from the same hole twice." (Bukhari, Muslim) We should learn from the repercussions following the events of 911; many sisters were physically attacked and abused. Arrangements should be made with the brothers in the homes to cater for shopping or other activities that sisters do. If sisters must leave their homes, they should not do so alone, but preferably with a brother/s or a group of sisters. Sisters should wear flat-soled shoes in order escape or evade any attack. Sisters should avoid areas that are known to be security 'black-spots'. Sisters should always remain contactable either through mobile phone or any other means. Sisters should always remain vigilant and know who and
Re: [IslamCity] Prayer Without Ablution Due to a Medical Condition
ABLUTION-(WIND TROUBLE) If this is frequent but not continuous a person who choose the time when it stops and proceed to make his ablution and offer his prayer. If he releases wind in the meantime either during his prayer or during ablution, then he must repeat both ablution and prayer. If on the other hand the wind does not stop for any length of time, which is sufficient to have ablution and offer prayers, the person is deemed to be in the same condition as a woman who continues to bleed beyond her normal menstrual period. The Property (Sal) has taught us what to do in any such conditions including continuous wind or drips of urine etc. Wait until it is time for prayer when he should have ablution and pray. If it is dripping of urine which he suffers from, he should use a polythene bag and tissues or cotton to make sure that the impurity does not fall on his clothes. Just before he starts his ablution, he removes it and uses a new clean one. He proceeds with the ablution and prayer paying no regard to what he may discharge of wind or drips of urine or blood. He should take ablution only when the prayer is due and proceed immediately to the mosque and offer his prayer. He may also wait a few minutes for the congregation to start, but he must not busy himself with something other than what is relevant to prayer. If he does make such a separation he is required to have the ablution anew.

Therefore, he attends the prayer, without doing the ablution, and then goes home, where he performs ablution and then performs the prayer again. Is he doing right? Answer It is not permissible to perform prayers without first performing the ablution. The prayer will not be valid. So, what this person does by going to the mosque and praying with the congregation without ablution is not valid. His later prayer at home, with ablution, is valid, God willing. Therefore, he does not need to do anything concerning the past. It is clear that the man has a medical condition, for which there may be some sort of treatment and cure. He should consult a doctor about this. From the Islamic point of view, if someone has a problem of this sort, like incontinence, making it practically impossible for him to maintain his ablution, he can still attend the congregational prayer and his prayer will be valid. What he needs to do is as follows: He should perform his ablution as close to the congregational prayer (jamaah) as possible, either at home or at the mosque, but certainly after the adhan is called, not before it. He should also intend that this ablution is for the prayer he is about to offer, resolving within himself that he will keep his ablution intact until the prayer is finished. When he has done that, he proceeds to join the congregation. When the prayer is called he joins it, even if he feels that a wind discharge has taken place. The point is that this is an illness, not a normal situation. He should continue with the prayer until he has finished. If he needs to offer Sunnah afterward, he can do so. It is all valid, God willing. Every time he needs to go to the mosque for congregational prayer, he should to do the same, starting always with a fresh ablution, afte r the adhan has been called. As I have said, the problem may have a medical solution, but he needs to attend to that. On the other hand, it may be partly due to some tension in his mind, which is always causing him to be tense, fearing that he may discharge wind and invalidate his prayer. If he follows the steps I have indicated, he will find that the situation will improve as a result of the decrease of his tension. In some cases, such tension develops into a case of obsession which gives the person a great deal of trouble, making him imagine that he has discharged wind or urine when he has not. The best answer to such obsession is to go directly against it, telling oneself that the obsession, whatever it is, is not true. If the obsession is with having released drops of urine, then no urine has dropped; if it is with wind, then no wind has been discharged. One should act on this basis, offering ones p rayer normally, dispelling any thought of the need to re-do it. Within a few days, the situation will improve, God willing, and the obsession will begin to wear out.

Refutation of those who excuse homosexuals on the grounds that this is the way they were created
Question:
Salaam. I'm not gay but I'm just wondering from a moral standpoint that since homosexuality is forbidden under Islam, what would happen to gay or lesbian individuals? A lot of gay and lesbians say that their sexual orientation is natural and they are born gay. Assuming that they are correct since straight people don't know, if homosexuality is outlawed in Islam then why would Allah make them that way so that their existence is a tortured and sexually frustrated way?
Answer:
Praise be to Allaah.
We do not agree with their claim that their sexual orientation is natural; rather it is a distortion of nature. Allaah counted their deed as wrongdoing and immoral, and He sent upon the people of Lut a punishment the like of which no other nation had seen. He also tells us that this punishment is not ever far from the wrongdoers.
Their claim that their orientation is natural serves only to propagate and spread immorality, and it is just an excuse for them. Many of them change their appearance so as to look odd, so how can we say that this is how they were created?
Allaah does not create anyone just to punish or torture them. He created mankind to worship Him, but He may try His slaves with hardship as a test of their faith, to expiate for their sins and to raise their status. Allaah is too Just to force a person to commit sin and then punish him. On the contrary, people commit sins by their own free choice _ like these perverted people _ and it is for this that they deserve to be punished. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
"and your Lord treats no one with injustice"

Subject: [IslamCity] Why Women Should Wear the Veil?
JAMIATUL ULAMA (KZN) ISLAMIC WEBSITECouncil of Muslim Theologians
Why Women Should Wear the Veil?
Women throughout the world spend millions of Dollars on facial beauty. Companies manufacturing 'beauty' products make a colossal figure in sales. It would be nothing short saying that the products used on the face far exceed other products. This in itself proves that humans are particularly possessive of their looks - facial _expression_. People especially women take great pride and time in making up their faces.
Allah Ta'ala has placed the beauty of man and woman in the face. Perhaps the busiest part of the body is the face - used extensively in communication. The face communicates the person's mood and facial expressions and expresses the character and mannerism.
Because so much of identification is assembled by the face, least to mention the beauty of women, Muslim women are required to hide away their beauty. The veil forms part of their concealment.
The Noble Qur'an declares:"Oh Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks (veils) all over their bodies (i.e. screen themselves completely except the eyes or one eye to see the way). That will be better, that they should be known (as free respectable women so as not to be annoyed." (Ahzaab 59)
Furthermore, the Noble Qur'an declares in Sura Nur verse 31, that the believing women 'should not display their beauty and ornamentation' except to their husbands and immediate family (Mahrams).
Allah Ta'ala says clearly that a woman's body should be covered by loose-fitting, non-transparent clothing so that the shape of her body is not revealed. The Hijaab hides the beauty of the woman's form.
No one can dispute that a woman's primary focus of beauty is her face. Therefore, if Allah Ta'ala places so much of emphasis on hiding the beauty of a woman's body, it's only logical that the centre of greater attraction - the face - should without a doubt also be covered.
Referring to the wives (Radhiallaahu Anhunna) of Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) warns the men:
"And when you ask (His ladies) for anything you want, ask them from behind a curtain: that makes for greater purity for your hearts and theirs." (Ahzaab 33:53)
If Allah Ta'ala expects the prophet's wives to be so guarded then surely none of the believing women can claim greater purity of heart and consequently exemption from the directive to hide their beauty.
Hadhrat Aaisha (Radhiyallaahu Anha) says, '(during Hajj in the state of Ihraam) when the male should walk in front of us while in the company of Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam), then we would drop our veils from the head over the face.'
This Hadith emphatically shows the manner adopted by the honoured wives of Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam). They have exemplified an extremely dignified way of life for the women of the Ummah.

Women: Covering Their Face
Question
My wife and I have recently become Muslims. On visiting Madinah recently, my wife was told by a door attendant at the Prophet's Mosque that she must cover her face. He quoted the Qur'anic verse which may be rendered in translation; "Prophet, tell your wives and daughters and believing women to wear their outer garments over themselves [Added: some Ulema in the Indo-Pak have translated as 'over their faces'.] " He told us that it was obligatory for a woman to cover her face. However, we read in a translation of a book written by M. N. Albani that for a woman to cover her face is preferable but not obligatory. Please comment.
Answer
Sheikh Albani is one of the leading authorities on Hadith in the Muslim world today. I know him personally and I can assure you that he does not hesitate to say what he believes to be the truth and to support it with evidence from the Qur'an and Hadith. Like every human being, he may make mistakes. In this particular instance, he is certainly right. He has written a book on the type of dress a Muslim woman should wear in particular. The book is well researched and the style is clear and easily understood.
As for what the door attendant told you, I am afraid he has given the Qur'anic verse, he quoted to you, a meaning to fit his own view. I have no doubt that he means well, and that he does not recognize his mistake. The verse he quotes demands Muslim women to lengthen their dresses so that they are distinguished from other women. The type of dress with which it is concerned is the normal dress a woman wears. That dress cannot be made to cover her head, her face and her body. What the Qur'anic verse tells Muslim women is not to have their dresses short. They should lengthen them so as to cover their legs right down to their ankles. I have often quoted the Hadith which states that Asma', the Prophet's sister-in-law, once entered his home wearing a dress made of transparent material. The Prophet said to her: "Asma' when a women attains puberty, nothing should be seen of her bo dy except this and this ( pointing to his face and forearms)." The way this Hadith is phrased means that the face and forearms of a woman may be seen by others. This clearly means that it is not at all obligatory for Muslim women to cover their faces. No one may force a Muslim, woman or man, to do something Allah has not imposed.

Qadianis Their Twisted Logic
Question
What is Qadiyanism or Ahmadiya? How is it different from Islam?
Answer
Qadiyanism is a movement started in a town called Qadiyan in India by a man called Mirza Ghulam Ahmad. It later split into two factions, one of which called itself after the founder, hence the name Ahmadiya. Both, however, share the same deviant beliefs which ascribe the status of Prophethood to their man. It is well known that Qur'an makes it clear that Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, is the last in the line of prophets. This is stated clearly in Verse 40 of Surah 33, entitled Al-Ahzab or the Confederates [or the Clan]. In this verse God describes Muhammad as "God's messenger and the last of all prophets."
The Ahmadis and Qadiyanis claim to be Muslims, alleging that their movement is the second mission of the message of Islam and their man, Ghulam Ahmad, is God's messenger.
They try to reconcile this with the above quoted Qur'anic verse by saying that the Arabic word denoting 'last,' in the above verse means 'seal,' which means that Muhammad serves as the seal which endorses every new message. This is twisted logic, by a person who has tried to justify his false claims by giving a special meaning to the words of a language he did not speak. The Arabic word does have the connotations of a 'seal' but in the sense of 'putting an end to something, or bringing it to completeness that admits of no additions.' It is like a letter that has been signed and put in an envelope which is then sealed. You cannot add anything to that letter unless you break its seal.
The origins of the Ahmadiya go back to the day of the British rule in India, when the British colonial power sought to counter the notion of jihad among Muslims. This is the basic difference that the Ahmadiya brought.
The assigning of Prophethood to Mirza and the removal of the notion of jihad, which is a basic principle of the faith of Islam, takes them out of Islam altogether. They are not considered Muslims by any Muslim country or any Islamic authority. However, they are very active in preaching their falsehood and they have followers in different countries, particularly in Africa. They have gathered a momentum of their own and they are dedicated to their falsehood in a way which makes one sorry for them. Had they shown similar dedication in promoting the message of Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, without trying to alter or distort it, they should have achieved much. In their misguided enthusiasm, they only turn people away from the truth and they earn God's displeasure.

Stoning !
Al-Muwatta Hadith
Hadith
41.2
Stoning
Malik related to
me from Yahya ibn Said from Said ibn al-Musayyab that a man from the Aslam
tribe came to Abu Bakr as-Siddiq and said to him, "I have committed
adultery." Abu Bakr said to him, "Have you mentioned this to anyone else?"
He said, "No." Abu Bakr said to him, "Then cover it up with the veil of
Allah. Allah accepts tawba from his slaves." His self was still unsettled,
so he went to Umar ibn al-Khattab. He told him the same as he had said to
Abu Bakr, and Umar told him the same as Abu Bakr had said to him. His self
was still not settled so he went to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, and said to him, "I have committed
adultery," insistently. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, turned away from him three times. Each time the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, turned away from him until it became too
much. The
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, questioned
his family, "Does he have an illness which affects his mind, or is
he mad?" They said, "Messenger of Allah, by Allah, he is well."
The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said,
"Unmarried or married?" They said, "Married, Messenger of Allah." The
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, gave the
order and he was stoned.

Muslim League Youth Fronts
ACUMLYF Condemns
Threats Against the Al Aqsa Mosque
The All Ceylon Union of
Muslim League Youth Fronts [ACUMLYF] strongly condemns
the growing threats by extremist Zionist groups against the Al Aqsa
Mosque.
Since the start of
its illegal occupation of Jerusalem, Zionist Israel has
sought to change the religious composition and demographic character of
the city in contravention of United Nations Security Council Resolution
267.
In August 1969 they
set fire to the mosque and caused extensive damage. In recent months, Jewish extremists have
intensified their threats against the compound, which houses the Dome of
the Rock [Omar Mosque] and Al Aqsa Mosque, the third holiest site in
Islam.
The Al Aqsa Mosque is not only important to
Palestinians, but is revered by the Muslims everywhere.
Recently, a private Israeli television station
screened a video showing far right-Jewish extremists, including rabbis,
discussing ways of occupying the site in a bid to sabotage
Israel's planned withdrawal from
Gaza.
While the world awaits the final phase of the
Middle East Roadmap and settlement to begin, Israeli hard-line groups are
evidently trying to derail peace process by provoking Palestinians to
defend themselves.
Hence we urge the Government of Sri Lanka,
as a government that supports a Ceasefire Agreement and pursues the path
of a negotiated settlement to the internal conflict, to issue an immediate
notice warning the Israeli authorities of the consequences of any sabotage
or harm to the Al Aqsa Mosque, which may derail the sensitive Roadmap and
affect the stability in the Middle East.

Namaz-e-Istaghfar is two rakats. In each rakat after Surah Hamd recite Surah Qadr once and then say Astaghfirullaah 15 times. Then go into the ruku and after the recitation of the ruku say Astaghfirullaah 10 times. Rise up from the ruku and again say it 10 times. Go into the first Sajdah and after the recitation of the Sajdah say Astaghfirullaah 10 times. Arise from the first Sajdah and again say Astaghfirullaah 10 times. Go into the second Sajdah and repeat like the first Sajdah. Get up from the second Sajdah and say Astaghfirullaah 10 times. In the similar manner complete the second rakat and conclude the prayer. Insha Allah everything would be all right. Namaz-e-Istaghfar - 2 This is four rakat prayer. In the first rakat after Surah Hamd recite Ayatul Kursi once. In the second rakat after Surah Hamd recite Surah Tawheed once. In the third rakat after Surah Hamd recite Surah Falaq once. In the fourth rakat after Surah Hamd recite Surah Naas once. After concluding the prayer recite the Istaghfar ten times. The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.) said: If one recites this prayer on Saturday before noon the Almighty Allah forgives all his sins. Namaz-e-Istaghfar - 3 The easiest Namaz-e-Istaghfar is two rakats. In each rakat after Surah Hamd recite Surah Tawheed sixty times. Insha Allah the sins would be forgiven. Namaz-e-Istaghfar - 4 The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.) said: If one desires that his sins are forgiven he should pray two rakat Namaz on Tuesday eve. In the first rakat after Surah Hamd recite Surah Qadr once and in the second rakat after Surah Hamd recite Surah Tawheed seven times. After concluding the prayer recite Istaghfar. Insha Allah the Almighty Allah would forgive the sins. Namaz-e-Istaghfar - 5 The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.) said: If one recites 10 rakats prayer on Tuesday in the following way that in every rakat after Surah Hamd he recites Ayatul Kursi once and Surah Tawheed seven times; the Almighty Allah shall forgive the sins of all his life. Namaz-e-Istaghfar - 6 Recite two rakats prayer. In the first rakat after Surah Hamd recite Surah Qadr thrice and in the second rakat after Surah Hamd recite Surah Zilzaal thrice. After concluding the prayer recite 100 times: Astaghfirullaah Rabbi wa atoobo ilaihe. Namaz-e-Tawbah The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.) emerged from his house on Sunday the 2nd of Zilqad and said: O people! Who among you intends to perform Tawbah? The people replied: All of us would like to do Tawbah. The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.) said: Perform the Ghusl (bath) and Wuzu (ablution) and recite four rakats prayer. In each rakat after Surah Hamd recite Surah Tawheed thrice and Surah Falaq and Surah Naas once each and after the prayer do Istaghfar and then say: Laa hawla wa laa quwwata illa billaahil a'liyyil a'zeem. Then say: Yaa A'zeezo yaa ghaffooro ighfirli zunoobi wa zunooba Jamee'il mo-mineena wal mo-minaate. Fa innahu laa yaghfiro illa ant. And the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said: No servant of my Ummat performs this prayer that a caller does not calls out from the sky: O slave of Allah! This deed has been elevated and your repentance (Tawbah) has been accepted and your sins are forgiven. An angel will call out beneath the heavens: O slave of Allah! Congratulations to you and your family members. An angel would call out: Your enemy would be satisfied with you on the day of Judgment. Another angel would call out: O slave of Allah! You would leave this world with faith. You would not be arrested. Your grave shall be expansive and illuminated. Another angel would call out: O slave of Allah! Your parents are happy with you though

What is now happening:-
Both parents agree and fix the wedding+ nikah.
While the bride is elsewhere, the groom with
the 2 witness etc., and the Muslim registrar of
marriages perform the nikah ceremony:
He recites something from the Quran and then fill up
the forms and get the 2 witnesses to sign and the
guardian of the bride holds the hand of the groom
and repeat in Arabic what is said by the registrar
that he (the groom)accepts so and so as his legal wife
followed by a short du'ah.

Ceremony
Assalaamu ^Alaykum
Ok, hld on now. The basic conditions for an Islamic marriage
contract to be valid are to have a Muslim man, a Muslim, christian or
jewish woman, and two reliable Muslim male witnesses. The only time there
MUST be another person involved is if the contract is being performed
according to Imam ash-Shafa^iyy, when there must be a person of a certain
religious status (Shaykh), or if the girl is under age, and she must have
a Waliyy to give her in marriage. If these conditions are not met, then
the contract is not valid.
A woman can give herself in marriage, but men must officiate and
witness the contract.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
A Woman Performing a Wedding (Nikah)
Ceremony
Question:
At a recent wedding, a woman performed the nikah (i.e. doing the
khutbah and presiding over the ceremony). Are there any specific rules
to a person officiating a nikah, or is it simply a contract which anyone
can perform?
Answer:
In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful and Compassionate
There is nothing legally wrong with a Muslim woman performing a
wedding (nikah) ceremony. Women have full legal agency in the Shariah,
and have the right to initiate their own marriages, to act as agents
(wakeel) for others to marry, and to oversee the marriage of
others.
A nikah does not actually legally require a religious figure
(an imam or shaykh or mawlana) to conduct it. Rather, its obligatory
elements--as detailed more thoroughly in related answers--are: a valid
offer from one side and a valid corresponding acceptance from the other;
and witnesses who hear this offer and acceptance while knowing that what
is happening is a marriage.
However, it is recommended to have someone of learning, wisdom, and
piety involved in this process, in order to ensure that the marriage is
legally sound, pleasing to Allah (by not falling into errors of social
or religious judgement), and blessed.
And Allah alone gives success.

authentic are hadees one cites on the question of dogs

Re: [IslamCity] Muslim women step into whole new aquatic world
Some wear swimsuits while others feel more comfortable in long shorts and a T-shirt. YWCA = young women's christian association. ?

The door is locked, as the YWCA is closed Sundays, but Zainab Al-Baaj comes running to pop it open for the women and young girls waiting outside. They giggle, saying hello to one another and switching between speaking Arabic and English as quickly as they walk through the lobby. The lobby is where this group of Muslim women, ranging from toddlers to age 60, transitions from the world outside the YWCA to the world offered to them on the second floor at the swimming pool. In the lobby, long colored scarves, or hijab, are draped over their heads and their bodies are covered with loose, unfitted clothing. Their Islamic faith and culture instructs them to be modest in their dress, showing as little skin as possible when in public or in the presence of men. At the pool, away from windows, cameras a nd men, they can strip off their layers of clothing, put on colorful swimsuits and enjoy the warm pool water free of cost for two hours. They talk about their lives, families and the challenges they face everyday. Once I enter the YWCA door, its my time, said Al-Baaj, a native of Iraq. Its not my husbands time or my childrens time. Its my time. Thats why we cant wait until its Sunday we just cant wait. When Al-Baaj first organized swimming sessions last September with the assistance of the YWCA staff and the funding of a community endowment, she had never gone swimming before. Then, on her first Sunday, she was so excited to get into the water that she kicked off her shoes, rolled up her pants and ran into the pool, screaming with excitement. In those early weeks she was too scared to leave the security of the shallow end and the safety of holding the wall. But now, the young mother of three is able to take an elegant dive into the deep e nd and swim the length of the YWCA pool. Those first few weeks, I was really afraid of the water, she said. But the instructor was right there beside me. Now, eight months later, the program still is one of the only of its kind in the country, although Al-Baaj said she has talked with women in Tennessee and Michigan who are interested in starting up their own lessons. The scarcity of pools friendly to Muslim women is the main reason Ohood Hakim attends the swim sessions. Hakim, a nutrition and health sciences graduate student at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, said she hadnt been swimming since she moved from Saudi Arabia, where there are many private swim clubs, seven years ago. Since the UNL Campus Recreation Center doesnt offer accommodations for Muslim women, Hakim said she has to search for places to exercise on her own. We dont really have a place that understands our religion and culture, she said. Hakim works out at Curves, a female-only gym in Lincoln, and on Sundays between 1 and 3 p.m. she swims and does water aerobics with 40 to 60 other Muslim women at YWCA. In May, Hakim will be returning to Saudi Arabia with her husband of seven years and her two sons, as her education will be completed and her visa will be up. She will miss the swimming group, which helped her conquer her fear of water common among Muslim women because of inexperience with swimming and gave her a new sense of confidence. I understand myself more, she said. I can do things I never thought I could learn to do. Hakim said she would also miss the diverse group of women she met. Although the women all speak Arabic languages, the group is a hodgepodge of different cultures.Some wear swimsuits while others feel more comfortable in long shorts and a T-shirt. The women speak seven dialects of Arabic, and many dont know English. Most attend worship services at one of Lincol ns two mosques every Saturday, but dont always agree on matters of faith. The women come from 12 different countries, including Morocco, Jordan, Palestine,

AntiSpam] [IslamCity] The One who did Sajdah to Allah
The One who did Sajdah to
Allah
The following incident was mentioned by
brother Aslam Nakhuda during a lecture that he gave on 24/1/2004. Brother
Aslam is an Imam of Jame Masjid Brampton in Canada.He said that
three years back a group of eight brothers, including him, set out to
Texas, USA for dawah. They spent sometime there to remind the residents
about the reality of this life. On their way back, they stopped by a
service station beside a highway to perform the Magrib prayer. One of the
brothers gave the Adhan (Call to prayer). Two Non Muslim men were passing
by when the Adhan was being called. Being curious, they came to the
brothers and asked them who they were, where do they come from and what
they were doing. The brothers told them that they are Muslims who are
coming from Toronto, Canada with the glad tidings of Islam. A scholar, who
was with them, discussed about Islam with the non-Muslim men for 2 or 3
minutes. Then the brothers prepared to offer the salah. The non Muslims
who were standing by asked what they should be doing now. The brothers
told them to join the prayer and just follow along. The two men decided to
join the prayer. The imam recited Surah Fatiha and another surah after it.
Then he went to Ruku' and both the Non Muslims did the same. When time for
sajdah (prostration on the ground) came, the Non Muslims started
hesitating and didn't know whether they should also prostrate on the
ground as they never did this before. One of them decided not to do so and
he left the prayer. However, the other one just went to sajdah. After the
prayer, this person who agreed to prostrate to Allah was blessed with
iman. He accepted Islam from the brothers.Dear readers, this is
what we have to do. We have to submit to the will of Allah and in return
He will bless us with iman. On the other hand, a person who is arrogant
and decide not to submit to the will of Allah may just be deprived of
iman.
