10 Shawwal, 1433

Assalamo Alaikum! my Dear Sister's and Brother's in Islam, and to all the readers! Insha Allah you will benefits some of my blog.  Today! I would like to share about a woman in Islam, how we are being treated in our family as a wife, in society as a woman. 

In Islam a woman is recognized as a full and equal partner of man in the procreation of humankind. He is the father, she is the mother, and both are essential for life. By this partnership as a wife has equal share in every aspect; we are entitled with equal rights; and responsibilities. Allah says:
O mankind! Truly We have created you from a single (pair) of a male and female, and made you peoples and tribes that you may know each other..
Surah Al-Hujurat, 49:13

We are equal to man in bearing individual and shared responsibilities and in receiving rewards for our deeds.
Allah says:
And their Lord has accepted (their prayers) and answered them (saying): 'Never will I cause to be lost the work of any of you, be it male or female; you are members, one of another.'
Surah Al'i Imran, 3:195

We are equal to man in the pursuit to education and knowledge, and entitled to freedom of expression as much as man. Allah said:
Allah has indeed heard (and accepted) the statement of the woman who pleads with thee concerning her husband and carries her complaint (in prayer) to Allah: and Allah (always) hears the arguments between both sides among you: for Allah hears ans sees (all things).
If any men among you divorce their wives by zihar (calling them mothers), they cannot be their mothers: none can be their mothers except those who gave them birth. And in fact they use words (both) iniquitous and false: truly Allah is One that blots out (sins), and forgives (again and again). 
But for those who divorce their wives by zihar, then wish to go back on the words they uttered- (it is ordained that  such as a one) should free a slave before they touch each others: this are ye admonished to perform: and Allah is well-acquinted with (all) that ye do. And if any has not (the wherewithal), he should fast for two months consecutively before they touch each other. But if any is unable to do so, he should feed sixty indigent ones. This, that ye may show your faith in Allah and His Messenger, those are limits (set By) Allah. For those who reject (Him), there is a grievous Penalty.
Surah Al-Mujadilah, 58:1-4

"Whoever fasts Ramadan and follows it with six days of Shawwal, it will be as if he fasted for a lifetime."
Narrated by Muslim, Abu Dawood, al-Tirmidhi, al-Nisaa'i and Ibn Maajah

All Praise is due to Allah the Creator and Sustainer of the universe Who fully knows the inner-most and hidden thoughts and motives in the hearts of all and Who created mankind so that they might know and purposefully Obey Him. Allah (SWT) said:

"I have only created Jinn and humankind only that they might worship Me"
Surah Al Dhariyat, 51:56 

Behold! Allah took the covenant of the Prophets saying: "I give you a Book and Wisdom; then comes to you a Messenger, confirming what is with you; do you believe in him and render him help."
Allah said: "Do ye agree, and take this my Covenant as binding on your?" They said: "We agree." 
He said: "Then bear witness, and I am with you among the witnesses."
If any turn back after this, they are perverted transgressors.
Do they seek for other than the Religion of Allah? while all creatures in the heavens and on earth have, willing or unwilling. bowed to His Will (accepted Islam), and to Him shall they all be brought back.
Say: "We believe in Allah, and in what has been revealed to us and what was revealed to Abraham, Ismail; Isaac, Jacob, and the tribes, and in (the Books) given to Moses, Jesus, and the Prophets, from their Lord: we make no distinction between one and another among them, and to Allah do we bow our will (In Islam)
If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (submission to Allah), never will it be accepted of Him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (all spiritual good).
How shall Allah guide those who reject faith after they accepted it and bore witness that the Apostle was true and that Clear Signs had come unto them? But Allah guides not a people unjust.
Surah Ali 'Imran, 3:81-86

8 Shawwal, 1433

Alhamdulillah! Allah (SWT), because of His mercy, He give us chance to fasts after Ramadan, and the reward as though he has fasted for the full life. 



"Anyone who fasts in the month of Ramadan and follows it with 6 Days of fasting in the month of Shawwal, it is as though he has fasted for the full life, fast perpetually of fasted for 1 year, the Arabic word is Dahar, it means perpetually or full life.
Sahih Muslim Vlol. no. 2, Hadith no. 2614

As I read the holy Quran today, I would love to share to everyone:
O mankind! there hath come to you a direction from your Lord and a healing for the (diseases) in your hearts, and for those who believe, a Guidance and a Mercy. 
Say: "In the Bounty of Allah, and His Mercy, in that is better than the (wealth) they hoard.
Surah Yunus, 10:57-58

Behold! Verily to Allah belong all creatures, in the heavens and on earth, what do they follow who worship as His "partners" other than Allah? They follow nothing but fancy, and they do nothing but lie.
He it is that hath made you the Night that ye may rest therein, and the Day to make things visible (to you). Verily in this are Signs for those who listen (to His Message). 
Surah Yunus, 10:66-67

3 Shawwal, 1433

Alhamdulillah! As Allah (SWT) promise to all the believers, whoever completed the fasting during the month of Ramadan, out of his/her piety ("taqwa"), If Allah (SWT) accepted his/her intention all his/her sins are forgiven. Insha Allah. 

Action or deeds, as Allah's Messenger (SAW) said: Practices that are well documented and authenticated
"But those who have faith and work righteousness, they are companions of the Garden" Therein shall they abide (forever). 
Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:82

"Oh Allah! Verily You are the Oft-Pardoning, You love to pardon, so pardon me"
At-Tirmithee, and others

"The righteous (will be) amid Garden and fountains (of clear-flowing water)."
Surah Al-Hijr, 15:45

"Be quick in the race for forgiveness from your Lord, and for a Garden whose width is that (of the whole) of the heavens and of the earth, is prepared for the righteous. 
Surah Ali-Imran, 3:133

But give glad tidings to those who believe and work righteousness, that their portion is Gardens, beneath which rivers flows. Every time they are fed with fruits therefrom, they say: "Why, this is what we were fed with before," for they are given things in similitude; and they have therein companions pure (and holy); and they abide therein (forever).
Surah al-Baqarah, 225

Alhamdulillah! Ramadan is over, Insha Allah! whatever you did not accomplish to do during the month of Ramadan, from now you can start preparing for next Ramadan, and ask Allah (SWT) a guidance.
He who Allah guides, He will not go astray, He whom Allah misguides surely he will be in the Hell-fire.
Oh ye who believe to Allah should fear to Him, and die in Islam. The best hadith is a book of Allah, best guidance is the Way of Life of the Prophet Mohammad (SAW). 

Allah (SWT) says:
"Oh ye who believe! shall I lead you to a bargain that will save you from a grievous Penalty?" "That ye believe in Allah and His Messenger, and that ye strive (your utmost) in the Cause of Allah, with your property and your persons: That will be best for you, if ye but knew!"
Surah Al-Saff, 61:10-11  

Prophet (SAW) said:
"The majority of people who enter Jannah, enter it based on two essential elements: Piety, righteousness and God-fearing, and good morals. On the other hand, the majority of people of the Hell-fire, enter it based on the (crimes of) their mouth and private parts."
Reported by Tirmithee, Ibn Majah and Iman Ahmed verified in Hadith Sahih series, Hadith No. 977. 

O ye who believe! avoid suspicion as much (as possible): for suspicion in some cases is a sin: and spy not on each other, nor speak ill of each other behind their backs. Would any of you like to eat the flesh of his dead brother? Nay, ye would abhor it....But fear Allah: for Allah is Oft-Returning, Most Merciful.
Surah Al-Hujurat, 49:12

O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (Not that ye may despise each other). Verily the most honored 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).
Surah Al-Hujurat, 49:13

Eid Mubarak

It is sunnah to attend the Eid Prayer. Women and children should go to attend Salatul' Eid. The Prophet used to wear his most beautiful clothes for the two Eids.
The Prophet (SAW) said: "Oh' Abu Bakar every people have a festival and this is our festival." 
Sahih Al-Bukhari, and Muslim


Masjid King Fahad

Alhamdulillah! The month of Ramadan was ended but not our fasting, for those who still to fast to pay for what they missed, they can fast after the Eid. If you are going to fast six (6) consecutive days or with in the month after Eid, as if you fast the whole year. Insha Allah.

It is prohibited to fast during the day of Eid. Umar testifies: "The Prophet (SAW) has forbidden fasting on these two days concerning the Eid of breaking the fast, it is for you to break your fast of Ramadan. On the Eid of sacrifice, you should eat from what you sacrifice." 
SAhih Al-Bukhari, and Muslim

Prophet Mohammad (SAW) advice to observe  (do) 3 things:
  1. To Fast 3 days a month.
  2. To Pray 2 rakat of duha prayer.
  3. To Pray Witr before sleeping.
One of the most important principles of Islam is that all things belong to God, and the wealth is therefore held by human beings in trust. The word zakat means both purification and growth our possessions are purified by setting aside a proportion for those in need, and like the pruning of plants, this cutting back balances and encourages new growth.

Each Muslim calculates his or her own zakat individually. For most purposes this involves the payment each year of two and a half percent of one capital.

A pious person may also give as much as he or she pleases as sadaqa, and does so preferably in secret. Although this word can be translated as 'voluntary charity it has a wider meaning.

The Prophet (SAW) said: Charity is a necessity for every Muslim. 
He was asked! What if a person has nothing? 
The Prophet (SAW) said:  He should work with his own hands for his benefit and then give something out of such earnings in charity.'
The companion asked! What if he is not able to work?
The Prophet (SAW) said: He should help poor and needy persons!
The companion further asked! 'What if he cannot do even that? 
The Prophet (SAW) said: He should urge others to do good. 
The companion said: What if he lack that also? 
The Prophet (SAW) said: He should check himself from doing evil, that is also charity.

Thirty Days of Ramadan


Indeed! Today is the last day of fasting, Alhamdullillah! Birubil Alameen. Ya  Allah accept all my Dua's, Prayer. As we know, You are the Enricher, the Prohibitor, the Profiter, the Distresser, the Light, the Guide, the Maker, the Everlasting, the Inheritor, the Guide to the Right Path, the Most Patient, the King of the Universe, the Lord of Splendid Glory and Majesty.

Continuation from yesterday:

Accordingly, He made arrangements for the guidance of mankind and appointed His Messenger from among the people themselves and bestowed upon them the knowledge of the truth and the Right Way of Life. They were charge with mission to invite people to the Right Way from which they had strayed.

The Messenger themselves believed in Allah, and acted in accordance with the Guidance they received from Him. They were raised from different nations in different countries, and thousand of them were sent during thousand of years. They all had one, and the same religion which was based on the UNITY of GOD, and accountability in the hereafter.

They all taught the same Way of Life, that was taught to the first man at the very start of his life in this world. They all followed the same Guidance, that is, those fundamental, and eternal principles of morality, and culture which were prescribed for the first man from the very first day of his life. They all had the same mission to invite all human beings to the same Guidance, and to organized them into One Community (Mulim).

During their respective terms, these Messenger fulfilled their mission admirably well. But it is a pity that the majority of the people were not inclined to accept their invitations and even those who joined their community gradually became corrupt. So that some of the communities totally loss that Guidance and others tampered with the commandments of Allah and mixed them up with false things.

Please take note all the non believers, or christian! According to your Bible, 1 Kings, 9:5-8. 
I will establish your throne of sovereignty over Israel forever, as I promised your father David when I said, 'You shall always have someone from your line on the throne of Israel.' 
But if you and your descendants stop following me, disobey the law, and commands I have given you, and worship other God then I will remove my people Israel from the land I have given them, and I will also abandon this temple which I have consecrated as the place where I am to be worship.

God said to Moses and his people: Ten Commandments: Exodus, 20:1-6
I, the Lord, am your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that place of slavery. You shall not carve idols for yourselves in the shape of anything in the sky above or on the earth below or in the waters beneath the earth; you shall not bow down before them or worship them. 
For I, the Lord, your God, am a jealous God, inflicting punishment for their fathers' wickedness on the children of those who hate me, down to the third and fourth generation; but bestowing mercy down to the thousandth generation, on the children of those who love me and keep my commandments.

My Dear readers, Open your breast, and understand the message of Allah (SWT), He invited you all to the truth, and to worship Him alone! He is the ONLY ONE GOD, the Most Glorious, and the Most Merciful, and the reward is Paradise to dwell therein forever.
