Re: Bismillah [IslamCity] Out of 1000, 999 will go to hell ?
Dear Ahmed, Yes this is an authentic Hadeez and it is better to add a personal note in block Capitals stating that By Allah's grace many will be pardoned and taken to Jennath in order not to dishearten ummah. Laymen will think that what is the use if 999 out of 1000 is going to hell. Am I correct?

Bukhari :: Book 8 :: Volume 76 :: Hadith 536 Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet said, The first man to be called on the Day of Resurrection will be Adam who will be shown his offspring, and it will be said to them, 'This is your father, Adam.' Adam will say (responding to the call), 'Labbaik and Sa'daik' Then Allah will say (to Adam), 'Take out of your offspring, the people of Hell.' Adam will say, 'O Lord, how many should I take out?' Allah will say, 'Take out ninety-nine out of every hundred. They (the Prophet's companions) said, O Allah's Apostle! If ninety-nine out of every one hundred of us are taken away, what will remain out of us? He said, My followers in comparison to the other nations are like a white hair on a black ox. Bukhari :: Book 6 :: Volume 60 :: Hadith 265 Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri: The Prophet said, On the day of Resurrection Allah will say, 'O Adam!' Adam will reply, 'Labbaik our Lord, and Sa'daik ' Then there will be a loud call (saying), Allah orders you to take from among your offspring a mission for the (Hell) Fire.' Adam will say, 'O Lord! Who are the mission for the (Hell) Fire?' Allah will say, 'Out of each thousand, take out 999.' At that time every pregnant female shall drop her load (have a miscarriage) and a child will have grey hair. And you shall see mankind as in a drunken state, yet not drunk, but severe will be the torment of Allah. (22.2) (When the Prophet mentioned this), the people were so distressed (and afraid) that their faces got changed (in color) whereupon the Prophet said, From Gog and Magog nine-hundred ninety-nine will be taken out and one from you. You Muslims (compared to the large number of other people) will be like a black hair on the side of a white ox, or a white hair on the side of a black ox, and I hope that you will be one-fourth of the people of Paradise. On that, we said, Allahu-Akbar! Then he said, I hope that you will be) one-third of the people of Paradise. We again said, Allahu-Akbar! Then he said, (I hope that you will be) one-half of the people of Paradise. So we said, Allahu Akbar. Muslim :: Book 1 : Hadith 430 Abu Sa'id reported: The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: Allah, the High and Glorious, would say: O Adam I and he would say: At Thy service, at thy beck and call, O Lord, and the good is in Thy Hand. Allah would say: Bring forth the group of (the denizens of) Fire. He (Adam) would say: Who are the denizens of Hell? It would be said: They are out of every thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine. He (the Holy Prophet) said: It is at this juncture that every child would become white-haired and every pregnant woman would abort and you would see people in a state of intoxication, and they would not be in fact intoxicated but grievous will be the torment of Allah. He (the narrator) said: This had a very depressing effect upon them (upon the companions of the Holy Prophet) and they said: Messenger of Allah, who amongst us would be (that unfortunate) person (who would be doomed to Hell)? He said: Good tidings for you, Yajuj Majuj would be those thousands (who would be the denizens of Hell) and a person (selected for Paradise) would be amongst you. He (the narrator) further reported that he (the Messenger of Allah) again said: By Him in Whose Hand is thy life, I hope that you would constitute one-fourth of the inhabitants of Paradise. We extolled Allah and we glorified (Him). He (the Holy Prophet) again said: BY Him in Whose Hand is my life, I wish you would constitute one-third of the inhabitants of Paradise. We extolled Allah and Glorified (Him). He (the Holy Prophet) again said: By Him in Whose Hand is my life, I hope that you would constitute half of the inhabitants of Paradise. Your likeness among the people is the likeness of a white hair on the skin of a black ox or a strip on the foreleg of an ass. Muslim recorded in his Sahih that Ya`qub bin `Asim bin `Urwah bin Mas`ud Ath-Thaqafi said, I heard `Abdullah bin `Amr saying to a man who asked him, `What is this Hadith that you are narrating You claim that the Hour will start on such and such date.' He said, `Subhan Allah (glory be to Allah),' or he said, `There is no deity worthy of worship except Allah.' I almost decided to never narrate anything to anyone. I only said, Soon, you will
Re: Bismillah [IslamCity] Sex the Ummah: Innocence Lost
It is a hilarian task to infuse into the young minds, who are corrupted by TV culture, the virtues of Awrath and Islamic modesty. The only way out is to instil into the young minds at very early ages to the blessed status and the enormous reward bestowed by Almighty Allah, of being born as Muslims, living as Muslims and die as Muslims.There is the option of living as a Kafir, dying as a Kafir and earning the wrath of Almighty Allah and enter Jahannam. One is a little bit difficult task but the reward is going to be enormous and eternal the other is easy and the punishment is going to be unbearable and eternal.For an example, Passing the exam in a school examination is a bit diffucult but who wants to fail the exam is an easy task. Similarly we can explain the to cure an ailment we got to take medicine, which is bitter and not tasty. But by taking the medicine only we can be cured. If you do not take the medicine you suffer and die. Once you become or want to live as Muslim you got to forgo some of your so-called freedom for the sake of Alla's pleasure/ commands.. That where you differ from Kafir. The process of mindset towards Islamic teachings should be relentless ,tactful, daily and dynamic- but must be careful to exceed the limits and end up in extremism and confrontational with other communities- thus depriving our chances of a peaceful co-existence and positive interaction.

Walk into the clothing store, and prepubescent girls are already being introduced to tank tops, mini skirts, and items of clothing that were once reserved for mature women. But hey, this is nothing new. Its been around for a while and I think that many of us - including myself! - have become somewhat desensitized to this. There are times that well remember how bad it is, but what usually happens is that we cluck over it for a bit and then get distracted by the many other problems were facing. Now, however, Id like to take the time to address this issue from a couple different angles - both a psychosocial and religious point of view. In Wendy Shalits book Girls Gone Mild, she discusses the culture of hypersexualization: how its being promoted, through both media and consumerism, how its permeated society, and how it has so dangerously affected our lives and mentalities. This article (hat-tip to Nasim Choudhury) makes similar points - the psychosocial ramifications of hypersexualized culture are already evident and recognized even by non-Muslims. Awareness of sexuality is occurring at a much earlier age today, and almost always with a confused or warped understanding of it. Girls and boys are both growing up insensitively exposed to sights and concepts about the human body that were once discovered at a much slower rate that accommodated their level of mental and emotional maturity. It doesnt exist only amongst non-Muslims. Even Muslims are infected with the disease of hypersexualization, and its effects are far-reaching. Girls who wear hijaab still obsess over their weight and their image and try to look older than they are without the maturity or understanding of what older really means. In addition to general psychological and social effects of hypersexualization, as Muslims there is another dimension that makes the issue even more important for us to be aware of. The concept of hayaa - of modesty and shyness - is one that we Muslims should all be aware of, and prize highly, and do our best to cultivate within ourselves. There are many different kinds of hayaa, but in this context well deal specifically with modesty relating to our bodies. In Islam, we have something which we call the awra: the part of our bodies that we try to keep covered as much as possible. In general, although of course it differs with women in respect to the hijaab and so on, the awra can be described as what is between the navel and the knees. Sheikh Hisham al-Awadhi mentions in his series about Children Around the Messenger that sex education and awareness is supposed to begin at an early age for Muslim children - starting with the understanding that there are certain times and places that they cannot enter without permission. Hopefully this is something that Muslim parents are implementing with their children but then theres another kind of sex education that must be addressed. That is, teaching our children how to have respect and modesty regarding their own body, and others. Its not enough to just give kids the birds and the bees talk and to make girls start wearing hijaab - indeed, I find that there are far too many girls out there who wear hijaab without even fully understanding the many wisdoms behind it, including that of respect, modesty,
