Seven Days of Ramadan

Alhamdulillah I'm back to my computer, still I'm not feeling good, Ins sha Allah tomorrow I can start again.
Oh Allah! Guide me the right things to do in my LIFE.
Oh Allah! You are strong in I'm weak, and You are rich in I'm poor, shower us Your Mercy, from Your blessing, and bounty, and forgiveness, and save us from the fire of the hell.

What I am suffering is less than what the Muslim brothers, and sister suffering from Burma, you cannot imagine the way they suffered. May Allah bless them, and remove from any calamities. Amin

Today I'm not able to fast, I thought I cannot get up from my bed, Alhamdulillah I'm here in my site, keep thinking the people who are suffering still able to do their job, mine is just a high fever, throat infection, and headache. I could not think what I need to share, except the hell fire. 

That we heard a terrible sound. Thereupon Allah's  Messenger said:  that is a stone  which was thrown seventy (70) years before in Hell and it has been constantly slipping down and now it has reached its base.
Sahih Muslim (6813)

The fire which the sons of Adam burn is only one seventieth part of the Fire of Hell. His companions said: By Allah, even ordinary fire would have been enough (to burn people). Thereupon he said: It is sixty nine (69) parts in excess of (the heat of fire in this world each of them being equivalent to their heat). (The intensity of the heat of the Fire of Hell compared to fire of the world 70X more).
Sahih Muslim (6811)

Samura b. Jundub reported Allah's Messenger (PBUH) as saying: There would be among them those to whom the fire will reach up to their ankle,s and to some of them the fire would reach their knees, and to some it would reach their waists, and to some it would reach up to their collar-bones.
Sahih Muslim (6816)

I really feel so hot in my body (high fever), so I remember Hell Fire,  I'm trying to share what I learned about the "Hell Fire". I cannot describe or explain according to my understanding, read the above hadith then you try to understand what really meant to you if you believe it or not.

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
The (Day) of noise and Clamour:
What is the (Day) of Noise and Clamour?
And what will explain to thee what the (Day) of Noise and Clamour is?
(It is) a Day whereon men will be like moths scattered about,
And the mountains will be like carded wool.
Then, he whose balance (of good deeds) will be (found) heavy,
Will be in a Life of good pleasure and satisfaction.
But he whose balance (of good deeds) will be (found) light
Will have his home in a (bottomless) Pit.
And what will explain to thee what this is?
(It is) a Fire Blazing fiercely!
Surah Al-Qariah, 101:1-11

Sixth Days of Ramadan

O Allah! for you do we fast, and for you do we break our fast.
All praise is due to You, and we thank you for all the blessing you bestow on us.
Accept our prayer, dua, and fasting in this month of Ramadan.
Erase all our past sins, and help us to become more stronger in our faith, have more taqwa and become better Muslim. Insha Allah.
Alhamdu lil Allah, You make me a Muslim, believing the faith of Islam.

Praise be to Allah, who created (out of nothing)
The heavens and the earth, who made the angels messengers with wings,
Two, or three, or four (pairs); He adds to creation as He pleases:
For Allah has power over all things.
Surah Al-Fatir, 35:1

Allah did create you from dust; then from a sperm drop; then He made you in pairs.
And no female conceives, or lay down (her loads), but with His knowledge.
Nor is a man long-live granted length of days, nor is a part cut off from his life, but is in a Decree 
(ordained). All this is easy for Allah.
Surah Al-Fatir, 35:11

Say: "This is my way I do invite unto Allah on evidence clear as the seeing with one's eyes 
I and whoever  follows me. Glory be to Allah! and never will I join gods with Allah!"
Surah Yusuf, 12:108

Say: "If ye love Allah, follow me, Allah will love you, and forgive you  your sins.
Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful."
Sura Ali Imran, 3:31

"LOVE - is the greatest gift of Allah"

Allah (SWT) He gives His love to all of us, not because I am a Muslim, He love all His creations here on earth as well in heavens. His love is infinite without measure. He is so Merciful to all humanity, that is why we have knowledge, ability to understand what is wrong, and what is right. 

Because of His love toward us, He granted us freedom of will, and action so that we may remain free to choose whatever attitude in life we likes here on earth.

"O mankind! we created you from a single (pairs) of a male and female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise each others). Verily the most honoured of you in the sight of Allah is (he who is) the most righteous of you. And Allah has full knowledge and is well-acquainted (with all things)".
Sura Al Hujurat, 49:13

Fifth Days of Ramadan

This is the place (Maqaam Ibraahem) after the Tawaf being completed the pilgrim should then pray two raka'aahs behind Maqaam Ibraahem, It is advisable to recite the first sura Al Kafirun, then second rakat, sura Al-Iklas.

I remember during my first umra during the month of Ramadan, Alhamdulillah I cannot imagine the happiest of my life to be in the House of Allah, I don't even feel hungry or thirsty Masha Allah, I prayed a lot of DU'AA. 

"Rabbanaa aatina fid dunya hasanatan wa fil-aakhirati hasanatan wa qinaa adhaaban naar".  
"Oh Allah, give us the good of this world that of the hereafter and shield us from the torment of the hell fire"
Sura Al-Baqarah, 2:201

I have set my face towards the originator of the heaven and the earth sincerely (in Islam) and I am not among  the mushier. Indeed my prayer, my sacrifice, my living, and my dying are for Allah, the Lord of the world! No partner has he. Indeed I am Muslim (those who submit to Him). 

O Allah! You are the King, none has the right to be worshiped but You. (You are the most perfect and all praise is for You). You are my Lord and I am your slave, I have wronged myself, and I have acknowledge my sins, so forgive all my sins for no one forgives sins except You.

O Allah! guide me to the best of character to which no one can guide except You, and save me from the worst of characters, from which no one can save me except You. I am here and happy to serve You. All good is in Your hands, and evil is not from You. (The guided one is he who is guided by You). You are blessed and exalted I seek Your forgiveness and repent to You. Amin.

Fourth Days of Ramadan

Today I ask Allah (SWT) a message for me to deliver to all mankind who has heart to understand the truth:
Open your heart as I open mine, let the word of Allah get into your heart with no regret. Alhamdu Lilah! I never regret that I am a Muslim believing the faith of Islam. 

O men! Here is a parable set forth! Listen to it! Those on whom, besides Allah, ye call, cannot create (even) a fly, if they all met together for the purpose! and if the fly should snatch away anything from them, they would  have no power to release it from the fly. Feeble are those who petition and those whom they petition!

No just estimate have they made of Allah: for Allah is He Who is strong and able to carry out His will.

Allah chooses Messengers from angels and from men  for Allah is He Who hears and sees (all things).

He knows what is before them and what is behind them: and to Allah go back all questions (for decision).

O ye who believe! bow down, prostrate yourselves, and adore your lord; and do good; that ye may prosper.

And strive in His cause as ye ought to strive, (with sincerity and under discipline). He has chosen you, and has imposed no difficulties on you in religion; it is the cult of your father Abraham. It is He Who has named you Muslim, both before and in this (Revelation); that the Messenger may be a witnesses for you, and ye be witnesses for mankind! so establish regular Prayer, give regular Charity, and hold fast to Allah! He is your protector- the best to protect and the Best to help!
Sura, Al Hajj, 22:73-78

Third Days of Ramadan

I remember before I embrace Islam, it was almost  Ramadan, I started reading some pamphlets about Islam, watching debate of Sheikh Ahmed Deedat may Allah (SWT) accept him in paradise ameen. This debate with Dr. Floyd Clark, who is a professor emirites at Johnson Bible College USA. If you will follow to listen the whole debate, if you are the good readers of Bible you will be amazed the way Sheikh Ahmed Deedat deliver his debate about WAS JESUS CRUCIFIED? I never knew before that he is a Muslim, until I finish listening the debate, masha Allah I realized that JESUS the son of Virgin Mary was not crucified, and He is the MESSIAH as the Bible say with different gospel.

According to the Quran: Sura Maryam, 19:27-33

At length she brought the (babe) to her people, carrying him (in her arms). 

They said: "O Mary! Truly an amazing thing hast thou brought!

"O sister of Aaron! thy father was not a man of evil, nor thy mother a woman unchaste!"

But she [pointed to the babe. They said: "How can we talk to one who is a child in the cradle?"

He said: "I am indeed a servant of Allah: He hath given me revelation and made me a prophet;

"And He hath made me blessed wheresoever I be, and hath enjoined on me PRAYER and CHARITY as long as I live: He hath made me kind to my mother, and not overbearing or miserable;

"So PEACE is on me the day I was born, the day that I die, and the Day that I shall be raised up to life (again)"

Second Days of Ramadan

Ramadan is a a bounty that Allah (SWT) blessed His servants with, no strengthen their faith, and increase their piety (Taqwa). Allah Said:
"O you who believe! Fasting is prescribed for you as it was prescribed for those before you, that ye may (learn) self-restraint."  (Sura Al-Baqarah, 2:183)

Goals of Fasting
Achieving Taqwa: is one of the most important wisdom of fasting brings on Taqwa as it lessens the desire of the stomach and mutes the sexual appetite. Whoever fasts frequently would overcome these two desires more easily. This deter against committing abominations and sins and assist in controlling life leading to Taqwa.

Strengthening willpower and acquiring patience:
The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam called Ramadan the month of patience as it increases one's will power to control his/her desire and the selfishness of his/her soul. This training allow him/her to be strong in following Allah's commands. "These are the limits set by Allah (SWT)". (Sura Al-Baqarah, 2:187)

Fasting is pure worship:
The fact that he/she is abstaining from food and drink both in public and in secret shows his/her honest faith  and strong love of Allah (SWT),  and his/her knowledge and feeling that Allah is all-knowing of everything. 

Allah (SWT) said in the hadithQudsi:
"Every deed of the son of Adam will be multiplied [ in rewards], the good deed by ten of its like, up to seven hundreds, up to whatever Allah wills, except fasting, it is for ME and I will reward it. He/she abandons his/her desire and his/her food for MY sake".  (Zaadal-Mi'ad 2/29).

May Almighty Allah accept our fasting, and rewards us ten or seven hundreds, up to whatever Allah wills! InshaAllah.. 

DUA
Oh Allah! Separate me from my sins as you have separated the east, and west.
Oh Allah! Cleanse me of my sins as white cloth is cleansed from dirt.
Oh Allah! wash me of my sin with water, ice and snow.
Oh Allah! I ask of You integrity and soundness in my religion, my life, my family and my possessions.
Oh Allah! cover my shame, pacify my fears, guard me from what is in front of me, and behind me, from what is on my right, and on my left, over my head and under my feet.
Oh Allah! grant health to my body.
Oh Allah! grant health to my hearing.
Oh Allah! grant health to my sight.
There is no deity except YOU!

July 21, 2012      (istd/f=vac)

First day of Ramadan

Allah's (SWT) signs are many, and so are His mysteries:
Yet each does point to His Unity, Goodness, Power, and Mercy.
There is none like unto Him. His teaching is one, and men that split up His standard Religion are but following their own lusts.
Ungrateful are they to give part-worship to others, when all worship and praise and glory are due to Him and Him alone, in whom we have our life and being!  

Dear Allah,
Today is my first day of Ramadan!! I want to thank you for all the blessing you have given me.
I'm blessed to wake up every morning to see the beautiful life you bestow on me, that I could stand  and pray to you and I'm thankful for that.

As Prophet Mohammad (SAW) said: When the month of Ramadan starts, the gates of Heaven are opened and the gates of hell are closed and the devil are chained."  (Al - Bukhari)

So please open for me the door that is being closed for me, let me in, and not to look back again! what is my yesterday!! let me continue my journey, and fulfilled my dreams that I left behind. With out your help, I cannot make it, because I don't have any power to conquer the evils! Ameen.

It is You who created us , and put love, and mercy between our hearts, and it is you can remove.
