You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that's why you'll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with?

Prayers on A Rainy Ashura...

Rain...a sign of blessing from God...

To cool off & wash away the rages & madness that's been goin on for the past few days?

For a new leadership to lead its people without being looked upon as a terrorist nation?

On tis special day, where so many miracles, forgiveness & happiness happened for the past prophets, i pray & hope somethin special & beautiful happen for us too...

Let us...reflect upon the Prophet's supplication in Taif.

This is the dua he recited with shoes full of blood, wounds all over his body and after having been insulted, ridiculed and abused by the people of Taif to whom he had taken recourse seeking a place of refuge. Moreover, this occurs after three years of suffering a boycott at the hands of the Quraysh as a result of which Muslims were reduced to eating grass and leaves off of trees.

The Prophet (s) as he walks out of Taif:

"O Allah! I complain to You of my weakness, my scarcity of resources and the humiliation I have been subjected to by the people. O Most Merciful of those who are merciful. O Lord of the weak and my Lord too. To whom have you entrusted me? To a distant person who receives me with hostility? Or to an enemy to whom you have granted authority over my affair? So long as You are not angry with me, I do not care. Your favour is of a more expansive relief to me. I seek refuge in the light of Your Face by which all darkness is dispelled and every affair of this world and the next is set right, lest Your anger or Your displeasure descend upon me. I desire Your pleasure and satisfaction until You are pleased. There is no power and no might except by You."

If those who claim to love the Prophet(s) so much that they are willing to infringe upon prophetic conduct with their blind rage and fury would reflect upon this prayer, it would be a guiding light for them and a clear instruction as to how a Muslim should respond to our current situation. It is also the only salve by which troubled hearts and souls will find peace. It will not be found on pickets and demonstrations - not that these should not be useful in making clear our reverence for the sacred and the divine and our indignation at the injustice and double standards of the European press.

Let us...intensify our responsibility to share the beautiful and merciful message of the Deen especially now that the Prophet (s) is headline news.

Let the Prophet's prayer of Taif be printed in European newspapers as the example of his supreme magnanimity and patience. Do circulate the Prayer of Taif at this time as an antidote to all of the madness and poison of rage, violence and emotional maelstroms. May Allah guide us to that which is right and grant us the tremendous fortune of seeing our enemies as our close friends (see Qur’an 41:34-36) to whom we have the duty of conveying the reverence and love of Allah and his Prophet(s). 

Let us...stand united, seek protection & guidance for the Light of Islam to shine through these troubled times.

Recite the DU'A AR-RABITAH FOR UNITY AMONGST US BROTHERS AND SISTERS

"O ALLAH! You know that these hearts have come together in loving YOU, met together in YOUR obedience, united for YOUR Message and entered together into a covenant to support YOUR Way. O ALLAH! Strengthen the bond between these hearts, Make permanent the affection between them, Guide them to their Paths, Fill them with YOUR Light that never diminishes, Comfort their hearts with abundance of Faith in YOU and complete trust in YOU, Keep them alive with knowledge of YOU and Give them their death in martyrdom for YOU. Truly, YOU Are the Best Protector and the best to give victory, O ALLAH." 

Amiin amiin ya Rabbal Alamiin...

Historical Significance of Ashura

Hey...i actually have no idea what Ashura is all abt until a couple of weeks ago. Here's y 10th Muharram is a SPECIAL day:

Ashura is a day of great historical significance.

• On this day: Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) accepted the repentance of Prophet Adam ('Alaihis-Salaam) after his exile from Paradise;


• Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) saved Prophet Nuh aka Noah ('Alaihis-Salaam) and his companions in the ark;


• Allah extinguished the fire in which Prophet Ibrahim aka Abraham('Alaihis-Salaam) was thrown by Nimrod;


• And Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) spoke directly to Prophet Musa aka Moses ('Alaihis-Salaam) and gave him the Commandments.


• Prophet Ayyub ('Alaihis-Salaam) was restored to health (from leprosy);


• Prophet Yusuf aka Joseph ('Alaihis-Salaam) was reunited with his father Ya’qub ('Alaihis-Salaam);


• Prophet Yunus ('Alaihis-Salaam) was taken out from the belly of the fish;


• and the sea was divided as the nation of israel was delivered from captivity and Pharoah’s army was destroyed.


• ‘Ashura is also the day when Prophet Dawud aka David ('Alaihis-Salaam) was forgiven; the kingdom of Sulaiman aka Solomon ('Alaihis-Salaam) was restored; Prophet Isa aka Jesus ('Alaihis-Salaam) was raised to Heaven and Sayyidina al-Husayn (Radiyallahu 'anh) (the Holy Prophet’s, Sallallahu ‘alayhi wa Sallam, grandson) achieved the honor of Martyrdom.1

Worship Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) as much as you can on ‘Ashura. Whoever fasts on this day is like one who fasts all his life. Whoever clothes a naked person Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) will release him from a painful punishment. He who visits a sick person, Allah will grant him a reward that will not be decreased. Whoever places his hand on an orphan’s head, or feeds a hungry person or gives water to a thirsty man, Allah will feed him a feast from Paradise and will quench his thirst with Salsabil (a wine that does not intoxicate). And who ever takes a Ghusl on this day will enjoy excellent health and freedom from sickness and indolence. Whoever provides generously for his family on this day, Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) will be generous to him throughout this year. And whoever applies Kuhl to his eyes will never suffer from eye-sore again, inSha’Allah al-Aziz.

2. O’ Allah! Bless us to perform good deeds and gain their reward on ‘Ashura. Make the new year one of unity, cooperation and success for Muslims in this city and around the world. Ameen.

Freedom of Expression?

*drawing/cartoon has ben removed but contents of entry is not changed*

How stooopid can one be?

Tis drawing caused much uproar among Muslims almost everywhere in the world. Tis could even spark a war! Why of all people must he potray Prophet Muhammad saw in such light? U can take Saddam or Osama and pull tis shit and people will laugh but not the Prophet, alrite? Either u have not known how noble the Prophet was or u are such an attention-seeker or simply u have low morals to use tis as a mean to show Freedom of Expression!

If blasphemy is what u seek as a fredom of expression, why don't u draw this man in this picture ass-fucking ur own mother, mr cartoonist? Isn't that even more sensational? U'd probably win some prize for creativity AND blasphemy! tsk!

So how do u expect Muslims to befriend with u Kafirs for doin such a thing to someone who we have so much respect for? Do u think tis will make the Hamas accept Israel's existence? Or maybe stop the suicide bombers from taking innocent people's lives? What a stooopid move, man! 

But fear not people, I am not here to instigate hatred against Non-Muslims. If u think i'm gonna call up all my Muslim friends and family to burn flags of countries that are involved in tis whole cartoon brouhaha, I'M NOT! In fact, despite the lil anger inside my burnin heart, i'm juz gonna laugh at how distorted people can be. How superficial & fickle tis world is. And we can see how some people out there think little of us Muslims that they dare toy with things like this.

So many times, Islam has been perverted and insulted, and so many times we have to tolerate. If the people in times of Muhammad saw could tolerate the physical abuse and violence hurled at them, we the Muslims in the modern world should be able to handle this with no lesser patience, tolerance and benelovence, the true spirit of Islam.

P.S. btw i thot the "Muhammad" in the drawin looks more like a Sikh than Arab lah! Heh
