Bismillah [IslamCity] Irma la Douce

2009-02-28 Thread raja chemayel


 

The real Irma la Douce
 
 
 
It seems that Tizpi Livni was once a secret agent.
a spy , working for the Mossad .
 
She was allegedly active in tracing those terrorists
living and operating in Europe and especially in France.
 
This would explain her recent instant
sympathy with Nicolas Sarkozy.
 
He might have worked for her ,
because there is a rumour
that Sarkozy himself was once 
on the payroll of the Mossad.
 
 
I see it in front of me , as in a film ,
Tizpi walking down the streets of Pigalle
with a small dog, wearing the same outfit
as Irma la Douce...
and Nicolas Sarkozy in a French-police-uniform
collecting bribes and protection-money.
 
 
They meet , and a romance starts ,
she does not know that he is a
corrupt-public-servant
and his love to Irma makes Nicolas blind
to the fact that Livni  is a Prostitute
 
 
Stop !! Cut !!
 
Is that now a film ?. or a reality ??
 
Is Israel's next prime minister an ex-prostitute ,
or was she just pretending it ??
 
Was Sarkozy a corrupt person ?
or he just did it for the money ???
 
Do films show the reality ,
or does real life resemble the films ??
 
And then,  
what is wrong with an ex-prostitute
becoming an Israeli-Prime-Minister ??
 
All her predecessors were worse !!
they were generals !!!

Bismillah [IslamCity] FW: Attack On A Library By Students : Take Action Against Them

2009-02-28 Thread S A Hannan
 
 
- Editorial
 
 
Attack On A Library By Students : Take Action Against Them
A major Bangla daily has reported about attack of some persons of Chatra
League ( Student League ) on a mobile library ( a library which is on a
transport and moves from place to place to provide books for reading to
common people without charge ) of Isami bank Foundation , a major social
service organization, probably the biggest in the private sector.The
news reads in part as followsQuote  Chatra league workers of Alia
Madrasah have attaked the mobile library of Islami Bank
Foundation..Police , without taking action against them have sent the
librarian of the mobile library to jail..The police has seized all books
of the  mobile library.DC of Police has said that as there is a
comtroversy we have resorted to legal course.Sources have informes that
the mobile library started opearating after its inauguaration on 15th
February.The chief guest of the operation ceremony was Justice Abdur
Rouf, former Justice of the Appellate Division of the Supreme
Court.After inauguration the two mobile libraries are going from place
to place and providing  books and making members of those who want to
read .In this process, on Monday, one mobile library went near Alia
Madrasah area where some undisciplined workers of Chatra League (
student group connected with ruling government ) attacked the library
.They ransacked the library, forcefully took the driver, helper and
librarian to inside the Alia Madrasah hall ( students dormitory) and
beat them Unquote
The report also said that police came and instead of taking action the
attacking student , took the driver, helper of the transport and
librarian to Lalbagh police station .DC of the police said that they
have some confusion , so they have decided to send the books to court.
 
We feel that the whole thing has been mis-handled by the police.Why
they did not arrest the attacking Chatra League workers? They clearly
found that the place of occurance is near the Alia Madrasah and they
found the three persons of the library in a hostage-likecondion in a
hall of that institution. It is un-imaginable that they have sent
librarian of a very small mobile library to custody .We are perturbed
over the incident.Police apparently acted in a partisan manner because
the attackers are from students League. We ask the government and higher
police authorities and take action against the student attackers and the
over-zealous police functionaries. The government should ensure that the
police does not act in a partisan manner and not be cowed down by the
people connected with the present regime.
 


Bismillah [IslamCity] Ruling on hating the Sahaabah

2009-02-28 Thread Mohammed A
Undoubtedly it is a sign of great misfortune and misguidance if a person’s 
faith is based on slandering the companions of the best of mankind (peace and 
blessings of Allaah be upon him) or arguing about the disputes that arose among 
them, instead of occupying himself with doing that which will benefit him in 
both his worldly and spiritual affairs.

No one should have any reason to slander or hate or bear grudges against the 
companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). Their 
virtues are many, for they are the ones who supported Islam and spread the 
faith; they are the ones who fought the mushrikeen; they are the ones who 
transmitted the Qur’aan, Sunnah and rulings. They sacrificed themselves, their 
blood and their wealth for the sake of Allaah. Allaah chose them to be the 
companions of His Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), so no 
one slanders them or hates them except a hypocrite whose does not love Islam or 
believe in it.

It was narrated that al-Bara’ (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: I heard 
the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) say: “The Ansaar: no 
one loves them but a believer and no one hates them but a hypocrite. Whoever 
loves them, Allaah will love him, and whoever hates them, Allaah will hate him.”

Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 3672; Muslim, 75.

If a man who hates the Ansaar cannot be a believer and that makes him a 
hypocrite, then how about one who hates the Ansaar and Muhaajireen and those 
who followed them in truth, and slanders them, curses them and denounces them 
and those who love them as kaafirs – as the Raafidis do? Undoubtedly they 
deserve more to be regarded as kaafirs and hypocrites, and of not being 
believers.

Al-Tahhaawi said, discussing the beliefs of Ahl al-Sunnah wa’l-Jamaa’ah:

We love the companions of the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of 
Allaah be upon him) and we do not neglect to love any one of them, nor do we 
disavow any one of them. We hate those who hate them and who criticize them, 
and we only mention them in good terms. Loving them is part of religious 
commitment, faith and ihsaan, and hating them is kufr, hypocrisy and wrongdoing.

Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan said:

The way of Ahl al-Sunnah wa’l-Jamaa’ah is to love the family (ahl al-bayt) of 
the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him).

The Naasibis love the Sahaabah but hate the family of the Prophet (peace and 
blessings of Allaah be upon him), hence they were called Naasibis because they 
set themselves up (nasb) as enemies of the family of the Prophet (peace and 
blessings of Allaah be upon him).

The Raafidis are the opposite: they love the Prophet’s family (ahl al-bayt) – 
or so they claim, but they hate the Sahaabah, whom they curse, denounce as 
kaafirs and criticize.

Whoever hates the Sahaabah hates Islam, because they are the bearers of Islam 
and the followers of the Chosen Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon 
him). So whoever hates them hates Islam, and this indicates that there is no 
faith in the hearts of such people and that they do not love Islam.

This is an important basic principle which the Muslims should understand, 
namely loving and respecting the Sahaabah, because that is part of faith. 
Hating them or hating one of them is kufr and hypocrisy, because loving them is 
part of loving the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and 
hating them is part of hating the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be 
upon him).

Sharh al-‘Aqeedah al-Waasitiyyah.

Abu Zar’ah al-Raazi said: If you see a man criticizing one of the companions of 
the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), then know 
that he is a heretic.

Imam Ahmad said: If you see a man mentioning one of the companions of the 
Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) in a bad way, 
then call his Islam into question.

Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah said:

If a person slanders them in a way that does not impugn their good character or 
religious commitment, such as describing one of them as being stingy or 
cowardly or lacking in knowledge or not being an ascetic and so on, then he 
deserves to be rebuked and disciplined, but we do not rule him to be a kaafir 
because of that. This is how the words of those who were not regarded as 
kaafirs by the scholars are to be understood.

If a person curses them and slanders them in general terms, this is an area of 
scholarly dispute, depending on whether this cursing is motivated by mere 
feelings or religious doctrines. If a person goes beyond that and claims that 
they apostatized after the death of the Messenger of Allaah (peace and 
blessings of Allaah be upon him), apart from a small group of no more than ten 
or so individuals, or that most of them rebelled and did evil, then there is no 
doubt that such a person is a kaafir, because he has denied what is stated in 
more than one place in the Qur’aan, that Allaah was

day,Signs for men of understanding,Those who remember Allah 
standing,sitting,lying down on their sides  think deeply about the creation of 
heavens  earth,Believers saying not without purpose is the creation 
created,Glory to Allah,Supplication of believers,Give us salvation from 
fire,Disgraced is one who gets punishment of fire,No helpers for 
evildoers,Believers affirming call of Muhammad salla lahu alaihi wa 
sallam,Supplication of believers,Believers seeking forgiveness,Remittance of 
evil deeds,Dying in state of righteousness with the righteous,Grant believers 
promise of Allah through messengers,Disgrace us not on judgement day,Allah 
never breaks his promise,Allah accepted supplication,No good work goes vain of 
male or female,men  women are equal in gaining reward,Emigrants ,Driven out of
 homes,Suffered harm in Allah’s cause,Fought  were killed,Allah will remit 
evil deeds,Allah will admit them into gardens under which rivers flow,A reward

throughout land deceive you,A brief enjoyment for disbelievers,Untimate abode 
of disbelievers is hell,Hell is worst place for rest,God fearing will have

lord,Allah is swift in taking account,Believers endure  be more patient,Guard

 Fear Allah to be successful?
 
3:190. Verily! In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the 
alternation of night and day, there are indeed signs for men of understanding.
 
191. Those who remember Allâh (always, and in prayers) standing, sitting, and 
lying down on their sides, and think deeply about the creation of the heavens 
and the earth, (saying): Our Lord! You have not created (all) this without 
purpose, glory to You! (Exalted be You above all that they associate with You 
as partners). Give us salvation from the torment of the Fire.
 
192. Our Lord! Verily, whom You admit to the Fire, indeed, You have disgraced 
him, and never will the Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong-doers) find any helpers.
 
193. Our Lord! Verily, we have heard the call of one (Muhammad SAW) calling to 
Faith: 'Believe in your Lord,' and we have believed. Our Lord! Forgive us our 
sins and remit from us our evil deeds, and make us die in the state of 
righteousness along with Al-Abrâr (those who are obedient to Allâh and follow 
strictly His Orders).
 
194. Our Lord! Grant us what You promised unto us through Your Messengers and 
disgrace us not on the Day of Resurrection, for You never break (Your) Promise.
 
195. So their Lord accepted of them (their supplication and answered them), 
Never will I allow to be lost the work of any of you, be he male or female. 
You are (members) one of another, so those who emigrated and were driven out 
from their homes, and suffered harm in My Cause, and who fought, and were 
killed (in My Cause), verily, I will remit from them their evil deeds and admit 
them into Gardens under which rivers flow (in Paradise); a reward from Allâh, 
and with Allâh is the best of rewards.
 
196. Let not the free disposal (and affluence) of the disbelievers throughout 
the land deceive you.
 
197. A brief enjoyment; then, their ultimate abode is Hell; and worst indeed is 
that place for rest.
 
198. But, for those who fear their Lord, are Gardens under which rivers flow 
(in Paradise); therein are they to dwell (for ever), an entertainment from 
Allâh; and that which is with Allâh is the Best for Al­Abrâr (those who are 
obedient to Allâh and follow strictly His Orders).
 
199. And there are, certainly, among the people of the Scripture (Jews and 
Christians), those who believe in Allâh and in that which has been revealed to 
you, and in that which has been revealed to them, humbling themselves before 
Allâh. They do not sell the Verses of Allâh for a little price, for them is a 
reward with their Lord. Surely, Allâh is Swift in account.
 
200. O you who believe! Endure and be more patient (than your enemy), and guard 
your territory by stationing army units permanently at the places from where 
the enemy can attack you, and fear Allâh, so that you may be successful.

'Iran good example for African nations'

Iran's President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (R) and Comoran President, Ahmed Abdallah 
Sambi  
 Comoros says Iran can set a good example for those African nations which are 
seeking to safeguard their sovereignty.
 
 Comoros wants Iran to come to her assistance and strengthen self-belief in 
the country so it can go along the path to improvement, Comoro's President, 
Ahmed Abdallah Sambi said on Wednesday in a meeting with his Iranian 
counterpart, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
 
 He added that even with billions of dollars of assets frozen by Washington 
following Iran's Islamic Revolution in 1979, the Islamic Republic could manage 
to advance and represent itself as a shining example for world nations.
 
 A few months ago, the news of Iran sending a satellite into orbit hit 
headlines worldwide and won great acclaim. The entire Iranian achievements are 
anchored in attempts made by both the Iranian nation and authorities, the 
Comoran leader added.
 
 For his part, President Ahmadinejad said, Colonial powers over hundreds of 
years plundered African nations and deprived them of their wealth through 
coercion and deception in order to retard such nations.
 
 He added that bullying powers sought to build their own countries with African 
assets.
 
 President Ahmadinejad meanwhile expressed Tehran's support for Comoros and 
voiced Iran's preparedness to transfer its expertise in various scopes to the 
African state.

Every man has a fixed period of life given to him when he is born.  We do not 
live longer or shorter than this fixed period of life.  Soon we will be 
transferred from this worldly life to the graves.  In it we will be alone with 
our deeds only.  If they are good, we will be in a state of well being, and if 
they are not, we will be in torment until the Day of Resurrection.  The DAY, 
when records and ledgers of deeds will be unveiled.  At that time, the scales 
will be placed and people’s deeds will be measured.  Whoever had done an atom’s 
weight of good shall see it, and whoever had done an atom’s weight of evil 
shall see it. 
 
On that DAY, the sun will descent upon people until it is only a mile away, 
People will be sweating according to their deeds.  Some will sweat up to their 
ankles, some up to their knees, some up to their waists, and some will be 
submerged in sweat completely.  On that DAY a bridge extended over Hell will be 
set over the Infernal Fire.  It will be thinner than a strand of hair and 
sharper than a sword.  Trust and ties of kinship will be sent forth and will 
stand on both sides, right and left.  People will pass on it according to their 
deeds.  Some will pass like lighting, some will pass crawling and some will be 
in between the fast and the slow. On that DAY people will be divided into two 
groups, one in Paradise and others in the Hell Fire.
 
We still have time to re-check our faith  belief since it is duty of each and 
every one of us to find out truth and follow it.  We must check the 
authenticity of what we are following.  Are we following the true religion or 
we just following the elders and religious leaders with closed eyes.  We must 
not see the followers of any particular religion and decide rather we must see 
the sacred scriptures and compare it with our belief. We should take advantage 
of the time we have on Earth as an opportunity to prepare ourselves for death 
and all that comes after it.  God has told us in the Holy Quran how we can 
decrease the horrors that come after death.
 
Let us ask our creator O’ Allah, Creator of the Heavens and the Earth, Knower 
of the unseen and the seen, we ask You for true repentance and to make us 
witness that You are ALLAH and that there is no true deity but You Alone, the 
Eternal.  The One who begets not, nor was begotten and that there is none 
co-equal or comparable unto to You; You have the Majesty and Bounty, You are 
the Ever-Living, the Eternal Guardian.  Ease for us the horrors of that Day and 
make us among the happy ones and join us with the righteous, O Allah, the 
Sustainer of all that exists show us the right path and guide us towards 
accepting and following the true religion ISLAM………..Ameen.

I was watching the common press conference
done in Cairo today between Hamas and Fatah.
 
Sitting near me was my 13 years old son
and he was curious to know what is happening.
 
I was explaining to him what was happening
lately between those Palestinian-faction-parties.
 
He was astonished  to see how much details
I knew and how many people I could recognise
on that panel sitting and facing the reporters.
 
My son , asked me how I could know who is Hamas
and who is Fatah ??
 
I replied to him that it is very elementarily simple :
Those with a tie , well shaved and a nice suit
above 700 Dollars are from Fatah..
and those with a beard , no tie and a cheap suit
are from Hamas.
 
My son asked me also if the the Hamas delegates
used the Tunnels of Gaza , to reach Cairo,
and if Fatah people flew in a private jet ?? .
( I think that in a couple of years from now,
my son will start also writing)
 
I smiled , and told him that he is starting to understand
the difference between a Militant-party

Bismillah [IslamCity] canada: Mosque targeted with hate messages

2009-02-28 Thread Shahid
Mosque targeted with hate messages

The words and symbols are hateful and chilling.

Codiac RCMP are attempting to link a series of spray-painted messages, 
including swastikas and racist declarations, at five different Moncton 
locations during the last 48 hours.

RCMP Cpl. Mike Gaudet said graffiti is common in Metro Moncton, but most 
messages are harmless messages, such as some that have popped up promoting the 
class of 2008. These latest examples, however, are disturbing and police are 
taking them seriously.

We don't know if we are dealing with an organized group or an individual who 
has taken it upon himself to leave these terrible messages, the officer said.

We're looking for anyone in the community who has more information. Someone 
has to step forward and tell us more.

Two large swastikas and racist messages were spray-painted on the side of 
Moncton's two-year-old mosque on High Street. One swastika was painted in 
black, while the other and the message were painted in red.

Why? asked worshipper Abdullah Delancey as he attempted to scrub the thick 
paint off the vinyl siding during yesterday afternoon's heat wave.

It scares our kids. In fact, it scares a lot of our members. That's probably 
why I am the only one here working on this. Some of our members are afraid to 
come back.

Other offensive messages were found during the last two days at the Tiferes 
Israel Synagogue on Steadman Street, the Mapleton Road Shell station and 
Beaverbrook School and St. Hubert restaurant, both on Mountain Road.

Our criminal intelligence unit is working on these crimes and we're taking 
this matter very seriously, Gaudet said.

Our investigation is in the preliminary stages and we are gathering as much 
information as we can. We're going to need some help from the community.

At the mosque, Delancey, who also serves as a volunteer chaplain at The Moncton 
Hospital and is the father of seven and nine-year-old children, was confused by 
the hate crimes.

It's sad because people come here to pray and it is a place of peace, the 
38-year-old Monctonian said. In the past, we've had people throw rocks through 
the front window and now we have this.

Most of the people who come here are professional people, like doctors and 
professors. We also have students and people from the general population. They 
come here to pray and worship then they go home to their families or go to work 
-- just like everyone else.

We've always gotten along with everyone in this community. This is a place of 
peaceful worship and I think the people in this community like having us here.

Delancey said Moncton is home to between 200 and 400 Muslims. They spent more 
than $400,000 two years ago to refurbish the former Foresters' Hall and build 
the mosque, which is open every day for prayers.

It's upsetting to read these messages, he said. We will talk to anyone. If 
someone has a problem with is being here, come talk to us. We will talk to 
anyone peacefully.

You must be nicer to Muslims, Britain is told by UN human rights chiefs
6/25/2008



Britain was told yesterday by a United Nations committee to take firm action to 
combat 'negative public attitudes' towards Muslims.



The nine-member human rights committee also criticised some of the UK's 
antiterror measures.



The body, which is composed of legal experts, said it was concerned ' negative 
public attitudes towards Muslim members of society' continued to develop in 
Britain.



The Government 'should take energetic measures to eliminate this phenomenon and 
ensure that authors of such acts of discrimination on the basis of religion are 
adequately deterred and sanctioned'.



The committee expressed concern over the Government's plans to extend pre-trial 
detention of terrorist suspects from 28 to 42 days. Suspects should be brought 
to court 'within a reasonable period of time, or released'.



Those suspected of being involved in terrorism and subject to control orders 
and curfews limiting their movements should be 'promptly charged with a 
criminal offence' and their lawyers given access to the evidence against them, 
it added.



The committee also called on the Irish Republic to open up its largely Roman 
Catholic primary school system to secular-education. It said Dublin 'should 
take measures to help women avoid unwanted pregnancies so that they do not have 
to resort to illegal or unsafe abortions'.



The committee made its comments in response to reports from the UK and Ireland 
on how they were carrying out their obligations under the International 
Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.



The committee has members from Britain, Ireland, Australia, Benin, Colombia, 
Ecuador, Egypt, Mauritius and Sweden. They are expected to be independent of 
their governments.

Russia sees no concern over nuclear Iran
 Wed, 25 Feb 2009 16:19:10 GMT

http://www.presstv.ir/detail.aspx?id=86762sectionid=351020104 
Russian Atomic Agency Chief Sergei Kiriyenko (centre right) and Iranian Vice 
President Gholamreza Aqazadeh (center left)   
 There is no room for Western concern over Russia's nuclear cooperation with 
Iran, says the head of the Rosatom State Atomic Corporation.
 
 Sergei Kiriyenko, in a joint Wednesday press conference with head of Iran's 
Atomic Energy Organization (AEO) Gholam-Reza Aqazadeh in Bushehr, addressed 
Western opposition to Moscow's nuclear cooperation with Tehran.
 
 Cooperation between Iran and Russia is based on international norms and 
conventions and it should be said that nothing is being done outside the 
non-proliferation framework, explained the Russian nuclear official in 
response to a question by Press TV's correspondent Gisoo Misha Ahmadi.
 
 Kiriyenko added that those who seek to make excuses to hinder the Iranian 
nuclear program should lose all hope as they witness the level of progress at 
the Bushehr power plant.
 
 Russia's cooperation with Iran in building the Bushehr power plant is not 
subject to any political games, he stressed.
 
 The remarks came after Iran's Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki, in an 
interview with RIA Novosti, suggested the West had launched a misinformation 
campaign against the Iranian nuclear program to force an end to Russia's 
nuclear presence in Iran for competitive reasons.
 
 Certain powers have sought to question the nature of Tehran-Moscow nuclear 
cooperation. It should be noted that their objective is to vie with Russia for 
Iran's nuclear market, Mottaki said in early February.
 
 The West argues that Iran has sufficient oil and gas reserves for power 
generation and that it therefore needs no nuclear reactors.
 
 However, Kiriyenko said Russia believes that under the supervision of the UN 
nuclear watchdog and while observing the non-proliferation rules any country 
can avail itself of the peaceful use of nuclear energy.
 
 We believe that the structure in the Bushehr plant itself is in total 
conformity with the Non-Proliferation, said the Russian official.
 
 He added that Russia's cooperation in building the Bushehr plant removes every 
doubt about Iran's nuclear intentions, as the whole project is transparent in 
its entirety.
 
 Anyone who thinks this project can be used for the proliferation of nuclear 
weapons can come here and see for themselves.
 
 The start-up of the Bushehr plant is considered as a leap forward in Iran's 
efforts in developing nuclear technology, which the country insists it intends 
to use for peaceful purposes.
 
 On the first day of the test run of the plant in the southwestern city of 
Bushehr Aqazadeh said the power plant would become operational in nearly seven 
months.
 
 Without providing an exact timetable, the Iranian official said if the test 
stage goes smoothly, the plant would become operational sooner.

Bismillah [IslamCity] MATHEMATICS

2009-02-28 Thread Zaras Kitchen
*One*
One Day a person came to Ali (A.S.), thinking that since Ali thinks he is
too smart, I'll ask him such a tough question that he won't be able to
answer it and I'll have the chance to embarrass him in front of all the
Arabs. He asked 'Ali (A.S.), tell me a number, that if we divide it by any
number from 1-10 the answer will always come in the form of a whole number
and not as a fraction.' Hazrat Ali (A.S.) Looked back at him and said, 'Take
the number of days in a year and multiply it with the number of days in a
week and you will have your answer.'
The person got astonished but as he was a Mushrik he still didn't believe
Ali (A.S.). He calculated the answer Ali (A.S.) gave him. To his amazement
he came across the following results:
The number of Days in a Year = 360 (in Arabic Calendar)
The Number of Days in a Week = 7
The product of the two numbers = 2520
2520 divide by 1 = 2520
2520 divide by 2 = 1260
2520 divide by 3 = 840
2520 divide by 4 = 630
2520 divide by 5 = 504
2520 divide by 6 = 420
2520 divide by 7 = 360
2520 divide by 8 = 315
2520 divide by 9 = 280
2520 divide by 10= 252

*Second*
One day a person came to Ali (A.S.). He was planning to ask Ali (A.S.) such
a question which would take Ali (A.S.) a long time to answer and because of
that his Maghrib Prayers would be delayed. He asked, 'Ali you say you know
everything in the world, then tell me which animals lay eggs and which
animals give birth to their young ones Hazrat Ali (A.S.) looked back at him
smiled and said, 'The animals who have their 'EARS' outside their body give
birth to their young ones and the animals who have their 'EARS' inside their
body lay eggs.'

*Third*
A person was about to die, and before dying he wrote his Will which went as
follows 'I have 17 Camels, and I have three sons. Divide my Camels in such a
way that My eldest son gets half of them, the second one gets 1/3rd of the
total and my youngest son gets 1/9th of the total number of Camels'  After
his death when the relatives read his will they got extremely perplexed and
said to each other that how can we divide 17 camels like this? So after a
long hard thought they decided that there was only one man in Arabia who
could help them: 'Ali Ibne Abi Taalib.' So they all came to the door of Ali
(A.S.) and put forward their problem.
Hazrat Ali (A.S.) said, 'Ok. I will divide the camels as per the man's
will.'
He said, 'I will lend one of my camels to the total which makes it 18
(17+1=18), now lets divide as per his will'
The Eldest gets 1/2 of 18 = 9
The second one gets 1/3 of 18 = 6
and The Youngest gets 1/9 of 18 = 2
Now the total number of camels = 17
Then Hazrat Ali (A.S.) said, 'Now I will take my Camel back.'
This was the genius that Hazrat Ali was in his time.

location. I called and seems that there are some errors on the mosque location… 
but still a great tool… esp. once fixed.

Bismillah [IslamCity] Allah will make him enter Jannah

2009-02-28 Thread ***hajikhan***
 






 
Ubadah bin As-Samit (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said,
 
He who bears witness that there is no true god except Allah,
alone having no partner with Him,
that Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)
is His slave and His Messenger,
that `Isa (Jesus) is His slave and Messenger and he (Jesus) is His Word which
He communicated to Maryam (Mary) and His spirit which He sent to her,
that Jannah is true and Hell is true;
 
Allah will make him enter Jannah
accepting whatever deeds he accomplished .  
 
[Al-Bukhari].

11. Chapter: On Striving (Mujahada)
 
Allah Almighty says, As for those do jihad in Our Way, We will guide them to 
Our paths. Truly Allah is with the good-doers, (29:69) and the Almighty says, 
And worship your Lord until whay is Certain comes to you. (15:99) The 
Almighty says, Remember the Name of your Lord, and devote yourself to Him 
completely, (73:7) and the Almighty says, Whoever does an atom's weight of 
good will see it (W99:8; H99:7) The Almighty says, Whatever good you send 
ahead for your yourselves, you will find it with Allah as something better and 
as a greater reward. (W73;18; H73:20) The Almighty says, Whatever good you 
give away, be Allah knows it. (W2:272; H2:273)
 
97. Ibn 'Abbas said that the Messenger of Allah, (PBUH), said, There are two 
blessings which deceive many people: health and free time. [al-Bukhari]
98. 'A'isha reported that the Prophet, (PBUH), used to pray at night until his 
feet became cracked. I said to him, 'Why do you do this. Messenger of Allah, 
when Allah has forgiven you all your past and future wrong actions?' He said, 
'Do I not want to be a grateful slave?' [Agreed upon. This is the variant of 
al-Bukhari]
