The most belove of companion " Ibn 'Abbas" radiyallahu anhu

Abdullah b. 'Abbas (d. 68/687) is considered to be the most knowledgeable of the Companions in tafsir. [A book entitled tanwir al-miqbas min Tafsir Ibn Abbas (Beirut, n.d.) is a complete tafsir of the Qur'an.

all explanations of which are said to go back to Ibn 'Abbas. On the question of authenticity, see al-Sawwaf, op.cit. p. 140.] He has been called 'tarjuman al-qur'an', the interpreter of the Qur'an.

Since he was related to the Prophet, being his cousin, and his maternal aunt Maimuna being one of the Prophet's wives, he was very close to the Prophet Muhammad and learnt much about the revelation.

It is said that he saw the Angel Gabriel twice. Apart from his detailed knowledge of everything concerning tafsir, he is also given the credit for having emphasised one of the basic principles of 'ilm al-tafsir which has remained important to this day, namely, that the meaning of words, especially of unusual words in the Qur'an ought to be traced back to their usage in the language of pre-Islamic poetry. There is a long list of such explanations quoted by Suyutl. [Itqan 1 pp.120-33.]



Example:

The following is an example of tafsir from a sahabl, namely Ibn 'Abbas, confirmed by 'Umar:

'So celebrate the praises of your Lord, and ask for His forgiveness. Verily! He is the one who accepts the repentance and forgives' (110: 3).

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas: 'Umar used to make me sit with the elderly men who had fought in the battle of Badr. Some of them felt it (did not like that3 and said to 'Umar: 'Why do you bring in this boy to sit with us, while we have sons like him?'

'Umar replied 'Because of what you know of his position' (i.e. his religious knowledge).

One day 'Umar called me and made me sit in the gathering of those people, and I think that he called me just to show them (my religious knowledge). 'Umar then asked them in my presence: 'What do you say about the interpretation of the statement of Allah'.

'When comes help of Allah, and the conquest . . .' (110: 1).

Some of them said: 'We are ordered to praise Allah and ask for His forgiveness, when Allah's help and the conquest (of Makka) comes to us'. Some others kept quiet and did not say anything. On that 'Umar asked me: 'Do you say the same, O Ibn 'Abbas?' I replied: 'No'. He said: 'What do you say then?' I replied: 'That is the sign of the death of Allah's apostle which Allah informed him of. Allah said:

'(O Muhammad) when comes the help of Allah (to you against your enemies) and the conquest (of Makka) (which is the sign of your death) - you should celebrate the praises of your Lord and ask for His forgiveness, and He is the One who accepts the repentance and forgives' (110:1-3). On that 'Umar said: 'I do not know anything about it other than what you have said'. [Bukhari, Vl, No. 494.]

Another short example is:

Narrated 'Ata': When Ibn 'Abbas heard:

'Have you not seen those who have changed the favour of Allah into disbelief?' (14: 28).

He said: 'Those were the disbelieving pagans of Makka. * [Bukhari Vl No. 222.]

Last letter to her boyfriend:

"No matter how much we date each other, we won’t be able to have each other unless Allah wills it. So let’s leave all the Haram ways that guide us to each other and let’s take instead the path leading us to Allah… Wallahi on that path, we would meet if we are destined for each other…

but if we are not, then Allah, our Creator, All-Knower of the unseen and the seen, ...surely knows what is better for us. Let’s fear Allah, let’s trust Him and trust what He already decreed for us. Always remember that “whoever fears Allah, He will make for him a way out [of every difficulty]. And He provides for him from sources he never could imagine. And if anyone puts his trust in Allah, sufficient is Allah for him.” [Qur’an 65:2-3]..

So Allah will surely grant us a way out of this desperation that we may feel now. Our “love” nothing but a whisper of shaitan! It’s not true love! True love last forever but ours will turn to hate on the Judgement day! I don’t want to become your enemy on the day of Judgement! Don’t you know that "Al Akhillaa (friends, lovers who had forbidden relationships…) on that Day will be foes one to another (they will be like enemies) except Al-Muttaqun (the ones who feared Allah) " [al-Zukhruf 43:67] And even if this Haram love turns to Halal one day, there will be no barakah (blessing) on it, because it grew under Allah’s wrath. And what a bad example we would give for our children when they ask us how we met"

I miss you my friend

All those crazy things you said
You left them running through my head
You're always there, you're everywhere
Right now I wish you were here

All those crazy things we did
Didn't think about it, just went with it
You're always there, you're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here

Damn! Damn! Damn!
What I'd do to have you here, here, here
(I wish you were here)
Damn! Damn! Damn!
What I'd do to have you near, near, near
(I wish you were here)


I love, the way you are
It's who I am, don't have to try hard
We always say, say it like it is
And the truth, is that I really miss You Guys !

Don't Let The Duniya Deceive You

"Allah Says In The Quran: Do Not Forget Your Portion Of The Duniya
Imaam Qurtubi Says: That Your Portion Of This Duniya Is Your Kuffan, That The Only Thing You Will Take From This Duniya, Is Your Kuffan, You Know, Everything Else You Leave Behind, Your Car, Your Bank Balances, You Take Nothing, Your Popularity, Your Fancy Scarfs, Your Nice Homes, Everything, Your Nice Garments, Everything Remains Behind, What You Go To In The Grave Is Those 2 Kuffans, Thats It! and This Is A Reality Of The Duniya But We Are Often Decieved By The Duniya, One Of The Most Beautiful Example and I've Given This Example A 100 Times Of The Reality Of The Duniya, Is The Example Given By Imaam Gaazali-Rahimullah, About The Duniya, He Speaks About A Man Who's Walking Through A Jungle and While He's Walking, He Looks Behind and He Sees A Lion Chasing Him, And He Runs and He Comes To A Well and He Jumps Into The Well and While He's Falling, He Manages To Hold On To A Rope, And He Breathes A Sigh Of Relief and Looks Up and He Sees The Lion Hovering Over Him, Waiting For Him And He Looks Down and Beneath Him Is A Large Serpent With His Mouth Open Waiting For Him To Fall, And The Only Support He Has Is The Rope and After A Little While, He Sees A Black Mouse and A White Mouse, Set Upon The Rope and The Begin To Nimble It, Above Is The Lion, Beneath Is The Serpent and The Only Support He Has Is The Rope, And Now That's Being Nibmled At and In Front Of Him, He Sees A Honey Comb and He Looks At This Honey Comb, And Then He Sticks His Finger Into The Honey and He Takes That Honey Upon His Finger and He Places Upon His Tongue And The Sweetness Of The Honey, Momentarily Makes Him Froget The Lion, The Snake and Even The 2 Mice Imaam Gaazali-Rahimullah Says: That The Lion Is Death, Which Is Always Chasing You, The Serpent Is Your Grave, Into Which Every Person Will Fall and If He's A Good Person, It Will Be A Garden From The Paradise, And If He's Evil, It Will Be Pits From Jahannam (Hell) and The Rope Is His Life and The Black Mouse, Denotes The Night and The White Mouse Denotes The Day and They Are Always Nimbling Upon Your Life And The Honey Is The Duniya, A Man Tastes The Sweetness Of The Duniya and He Forgets Death, He Forgets The Grave, He Forgets A Day Will Come That He Will Die and He Will Have To Stand In Front Of His Creator

This Is The Reality Of The Duniya"

The Importance Of Time In Islam

There are among those who believe in the popular saying as "Time is Gold." Time in Islam is more than Gold or any precious material thing in this world. Of all religions, only Islam guides mankind not only to the importance of time but also how to value it. Allah the Almighty and His Messenger, Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), very clearly tell us the value of time, why we must not waste it and how we can make use of our time wisely to increase our Eeman (Faith) and thus attain success, especially eternal success in the life hereafter.

The following are some of the most important duties demanded of Muslims:

Ensuring benefiting from time
Utilizing leisure time
Racing for good deeds
Learning from the passage of time
Seeking the superior times
Planning and organizing time
Fulfillment of time commitments
Necessary awareness of time wasters
Both the Qur'an and the Sunnah enjoin Muslims to be conscious of time. We are reminded that life in this world is nothing but temporary. We never know when death has been appointed for us. We must value time for the satisfaction of Allah the Almighty. For our guidance and success, we must never waste time nor abuse it.

Ibn Abbas narrated that Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) said:

"There are two blessings which many people lose: (They are) health and free time for doing good." (Bukhari 8/421)

Indeed, we displease Allah the Most High when we abuse time. We must remember that time must be spent to fulfill our very purpose in life that is to worship Allah all throughout our lives. Allah makes this very clear in the Qur'an when He says:

I have only created Jinns and Men, that they may serve Me. No Sustenance do I require of them, nor do I require that they should feed Me. For Allah is He Who gives (all) Sustenance, Lord of Power, Steadfast (for ever). Qur'an (51:56-58)

But celebrate the praises of thy Lord, and be of those who prostrate themselves in adoration. And serve thy Lord until there come unto thee the Hour that is certain (i.e., death). Qur'an (15:98-99)

Everything we do in accordance with the Qur'an and the Sunnah is an act of worship. Such worship must be done sincerely for the pleasure of Allah alone. We should make use of our time (which includes our "free time") in doing beneficial things especially those that will make us closer to Allah and earn His Mercy.

We have to make use of our time wisely by knowing more of the Qur'an and the Sunnah. We must have correct knowledge of what Allah and His Messenger Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) have commanded us to do and at the same time to refrain from what they have forbidden us. This is imperative so that we earn Allah's pleasure and reward. Allah the Exalted makes it very clear, when he says:

O ye who believe! Obey Allah, and obey the messenger, and make not vain your deeds! Qur'an (47:33)

Corollary to the above divine commandment, we must ask ourselves: Have we been obeying Allah and His Messenger? To what extent have we used our time learning the Qur'an and the Sunnah in order to have correct Eeman (Faith), to do righteous deeds, to enjoin the Truth or do Da'wah, and be patient and constant? As time passes by, are we sure we are devoting our time for the sincere worship and pleasure of Allah the Most High? Are we taking guidance from the following very enlightening Ayat (Qur'anic verses)?

By (the Token of) Time (through the ages), Verily Man is in loss, Except such as have Faith, and do righteous deeds, and (join together) in the mutual teaching of Truth, and of Patience and Constancy. Qur'an (103:1-3)

In line with the above Qur'anic injunction, we have to discipline ourselves by giving value to the importance of time. We must be prompt in doing good deeds, which will increase our faith and subsequently enable us to gain Allah's pleasure and mercy.

Islam encourages Muslims to care for time, to utilize it wisely and not to waste it and to benefit from it. Besides, it holds them responsible for their time.

We have to remember that on the Day of Judgment we shall be asked how we spent our lives, wealth and knowledge. In other words, we will be questioned on how we spent everything that Allah has given us as implied in the following Hadith:

Narrated Abdullah Bin Mas`ud Allah's Messenger (PBUH) said:

"A man shall be asked concerning five things on the day of resurrection: concerning his life, how he spent it; concerning his youth, how he grew old; concerning his wealth, whence he acquired it, and in what way he spent it; and what was it that he did with the knowledge that he had."

The Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), used to call on Muslims to take the initiative to do good deeds before any obstacles arise. For instance, he said, "Lose no time to do good deeds before you are caught up by one of seven calamities awaiting you: a starvation which may impair your wisdom; a prosperity which may mislead you; an ailment which may damage your health; an old age which may harm your senses; a sudden death; the Dajjal (Antichrist); or Doomsday, which is indeed the hardest and most bitter." (at-Tirmidhi, al-Baihaqi)

The above Hadith urges Muslims to take the initiative, and not to delay good deeds; man's life is not free from impediments, such as those calamities, which can prevent him from accomplishing what could have been done earlier. Wise are those who grab available opportunities before being handicapped by obstacles.

If we are to evaluate ourselves objectively, have we been spending our time wisely for the pleasure of Allah the Almighty? Have we been spending our lives based on the Qur'an and the Sunnah? Have we been practicing Muslims? How many of us are Muminoon (Faithful Muslims) and/or Mutaqqoon (God Fearing Muslims)? How much knowledge of the Qur'an and the Sunnah do we know? Do we practice what we learn and impart the same to others or at least share them to our families and kin? Have we ever enjoined to others what is right and forbid what is wrong?

To be successful, we have to manage our time wisely by making plans for virtuous deeds that please Allah the Almighty. We must spend time learning Islam based on the Qur'an and the Sunnah.

Another Year Passes By and Time Marches On

O ye who believe! Fear Allah, and let every soul look to what (provision) He has sent forth for the morrow. Yea, fear Allah: for Allah is well-acquainted with (all) that ye do. Qur'an (59:18)

Another year has passed; minutes move into hours => into days => into weeks => into months => into years - seemingly faster than ever; yet every moment is a precious component of life and every moment counts.

Time - Use it, do not abuse it

Our attitude towards time indicates our attitude towards the value of the capital of life. If we want to purchase something, we require financial capital; and if we want to do something in life, we require the capital of life, time. That is why the Qur'an exhorts us to value the time we have before life is up. Qur'an (63:10)

Realize that...

Time is the measure of life, time is an amaanah (trust), time is a gift from the Creator and its proper use will determine our outcome for eternity.
We are born in time, live in time and die in time; time is the ambit within which we operate. What we do with time is what we do with our lives.
Each one must realize that every moment that passes by is an opportunity gone, used or abused; never to return. Soon time will be up and we'll have to leave this physical world and give account for our lives.
The more we remind ourselves of the responsibility of the present the better we get at living the moment and the better we live the present moment the better the consequence for the future.
Our attitude towards the future influences our mind-set towards the rest of life. Being positive about life ahead is among life's greatest motivators. Hope is the best attitude one can harbor towards the future; this realistic expectation that something good or better could/will happen if only we continue doing the best we can. Remember that today well-lived makes yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope.

Wise are the words of the one who said ... "I expect to pass through this world but once; any good therefore that I can do, or any kindness that I can show to any fellow creature, let me do it now; let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again."

"O Allah! Make life a means for every dimension of goodness." [Prayer of the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH)]

The Characteristics of Time

We are to bear in mind that time has certain characteristics, among of which are the following:

Time passes quickly.
Time that passes can never return, nor can it be compensated for, for time is irretrievable.
Time is the most precious thing that man possesses.
Muslim's Duty towards Time:

Having all this great value and importance, time is to be duly appreciated and managed. In Islam there is no room for slogans like the so-called "killing time", for in Islam time is really valuable. In fact, wasting time is much more dangerous than squandering property, because unlike property, time cannot be compensated. Free time is a blessing that is overlooked, and not wholly appreciated by many people.

This indicates that it's very important for a Muslim to try his utmost to husband his time and make the best use of it in beneficial things. A Muslim may use portion of his time in making invocations and supplications, celebrating the praises of Allah. The Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), used to supplicate: "O Allah! I seek refuge in You from sorrow and distress, and I seek refuge in You from disability and laziness."

A Muslim should learn how to organize his time, and make a realistic plan for his worldly and religious duties, without any of them overlapping the other. That is to say that one should know how to arrange his priorities: the most important and the most urgent comes first, and carried out according to schedule. Organizing time also includes leaving a place for relaxation and entertainment, for 'all work and no play make Jack a dull boy.'

One of the methods of managing his time properly is for a Muslim to get up early and sleep early, for early hours always yield great blessings. Starting his day with prayer and the supplication of the morning brings the Muslim Allah's grace. A Muslim should always bear in mind that every time has its own task that suits it. Doing tasks in their due times brings about peace of mind and comfort.

Finally, we would like to cite the following Hadith of the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), quoting from the Book of Ibrahim, peace be upon him: "A sane person, unless he is mindless, should have four hours: an hour to invoke to his Lord, an hour to count his own deeds, an hour to contemplate about the creation of Allah and an hour to satisfy his worldly needs."

Verily, time is very important for our success both in this temporary world and the eternal world to come. If we waste time, if we abuse it, then we waste and abuse our lives. In the Life Hereafter we will be among the losers, who will suffer the torments in the Hell Fire, if Allah the Almighty will not forgive us. Therefore, if we really give value to our lives then, we must give due value to the importance of time.

In general, sensible people know the importance of time.
Imagine there is a bank which credits your account each morning with $86,400. It carries over no balance from day to day, allow you to keep no cash balance, and every evening cancels whatever part of the amount you had failed to use during the day.

What would you do? Draw out every cent, of course!

Well, everyone has such a bank. Its name is TIME. Every morning, it credits you with 86,400 seconds. Every night it writes off, as lost, whatever of this you have failed to invest to good purpose.

It carries over no balance. It allows no overdraft. Each day it opens a new account for you. Each night it burns the remains of the day. If you fail to use the day's deposits, the loss is yours.

There is no going back. There is no drawing against the "tomorrow". You must live in the present on today's deposits. Invest it so as to get from it the utmost in health, happiness and success! The clock is running. Make the most of today.

To realize the value of ONE YEAR, ask a student who has failed a grade.
To realize the value of ONE MONTH, ask a mother who has given birth to a pre-mature baby.
To realize the value of ONE WEEK, ask an editor of a weekly newspaper.
To realize the value of ONE DAY, ask a daily wage laborer who has kids to feed.
To realize the value of ONE HOUR, ask the lovers who are waiting to meet.
To realize the value of ONE MINUTE, ask a person who has missed the train.
To realize the value of ONE SECOND, ask a person who has avoided an accident.
To realize the value of ONE MILLI-SECOND, ask the person who has won a silver medal in the Olympics.

Treasure every moment that you have! And treasure it more because you shared it with someone special, special enough to spend your time ... and remember that time waits for no one. . .

Yesterday is history, tomorrow a mystery, today is a gift, that's why it's called the present!

Interesting story

Once there was a very handsome, pious, well educated young man, whose parents emphasised for him to get married. They had seen so many marriage proposals, and he had turned them all down. The parents thought it was becoming a little ridiculous or suspected that he may have someone else in mind.

However every time the parents left the girls house, the young man would always say "she's not the one!" The young man only wanted a girl who was religious and practising. (Which was hard to find). However one evening his mother arranged for him, to meet a girl, who was religious and practising.

On that evening, the young man and girl were left to talk and ask each other question (as one would expect). The young man, being a gentleman that, he was allowed, young lady to ask first.
Young girl asked the young man so many questions. She asked about his life, his education, his friends, his family, his habits, his hobbies, his lifestyle, his enjoyment, his time pass, his experiences, his shoe size and his likes and dislikes. Basically everything!

And the young man replied to all of her questions, without tiring and politely with a smile. Young girl took up nearly all of the time, over an hour and felt bad and asked the young man do you have any questions?

Young man said, yes, only have 3 questions...

Young girl thought, wow, only 3 questions okay, go ahead and shoot.
Young man's first question was, (1) Who do you love the most in the world, someone who's love nothing would ever overcome? She said,this is an easy question! Answer to your question is my mother.


Young man smiled and asked second question, (2) You said that you read a lot of Qur'an, could you tell me which Surahs you know the meaning of? Hearing this she went red and embarrassed and said I do not know the meaning of any yet, but I am hoping to soon Insha Allah I have just been a bit busy.
The third question the young man asked, was (3) I have been approached for my hand in marriage, by girls that are lot more prettier than you, why should I marry you? Hearing this, the young girl was outraged, she stormed off to her parents with fury and said I do not want to marry this man he is insulting my beauty and intelligence.

And the young man and his parents were once again, left without an agreement of marriage. This time, the young man's parentswere really angry and said what did you do to anger that young girl, the family was so nice and pleasant, and they were religious like you wanted. What did you ask the girl? Tell us!
Young man said, firstly I asked her,who do you love the most? She said,her mother. The parents said so, what is wrong with that?
Young man said, "no one, is Muslim, until he loves Allah *Subhana Wa Taala *and his Messenger more than anyone else in the world." If a woman loves Allah *Subhana Wa Taala *and Holy Prophet Muhammad *(Choicest blessing and peace be upon him) more than anyone, she will love me and respect me and stay faithful to me, because of that love and fear for Allah *Subhana Wa Taala . And we can share this love, because this love is greater than lust for beauty.

Young man said, then I asked, you read a lot of Holy Qur'an, can you tell me the meaning of any Surah? And she said no. because I haven't had time yet. So I remembered the saying of Imam Shafi'i, "All humans are dead except those who have knowledge .... And all those who have knowledge are asleep, except those who do good deeds .. And those who do good are deceived, except those who are sincere ... And those who are sincere are always in a state of worry (for others)."

She has lived 20 yearson this earth and not found any time, to seek knowledge, why wouldI marry a woman, who does not know her rights and responsibilities and what will she teach my children, except how to be negligent, because the woman is the Madrasah (school) and the best of teachers. And a woman, who has no time for Allah *Subhana Wa Taala , will not have time for her husband.
The third question I asked her was, that a lot of girls, more prettier than her, had approached me for marriage, why should I choose her? That is why she stormed off, getting angry.

Young man's parentssaid that is a horrible thing to say, why would you do such a thing; we are going back there to apologize. Young man said I said this on purpose, to test whether she could control her anger.

Holy Prophet Muhammad said "Do not get angry, do not get angry, do not get angry" repeatedly when asked how to become pious, because anger is from Satan.
If a woman cannot control her anger with a stranger she just met, do you think she will be able to control it with her husband?

So, the moral of this story is, a marriage is based on: Knowledge not looks, Practice not preaching, Forgiveness not anger, Spiritual love not lust and compromise!

One should look for a person who (1)Has love for Allah *Subhana Wa Taala *and his Messenger(2) Has knowledge of the deen (religion), and can act upon it(3) can control her anger and another important and crucial factor that she be (4)willing to compromise.

And it goes both ways, so women seeking a man, should look for the same things.
May Allah *Subhana Wa Taala *make every marriage a success and let us create Love for Allah and his Messenger so that Allah *Subhana Wa Taala *can bless us, and create love in our lives.

"There is no better structure founded in Islam other than marriage". Holy Prophet Muhammad Salalahu Alaihi wa Salam

Story Of Beautiful Woman Who Wish To Marry Pious Husband

There was this beautiful woman, who wanted to get married, but she wanted a very pious husband, so she said that she’ll marry the man who recites the whole Quran every single day, fasts for the whole year and stays awake and worships Allah all throughout the night. She was a very beautiful woman, and a lot of suitors wanted to marry her, but they knew they couldn’t fulfil the conditions she set.

Until this one man stepped forward and said he could fulfil them. So the Imam got both of them married. After the first night of the marriage, the wife sees that the husband doesn’t recite the whole of the Quran, nor does he fast, nor does he stay awake in the worship of Allah, she decided to let it roll on for a few weeks to see if there were any changes, there weren’t, so she filed a complaint and asked for a divorce.

They are both taken in front of the judge, and the judge asked, ‘What were the conditions of the marriage?’ the man replied ‘They were for me to recite the whole Quran daily, keep fast for the whole year and to worship Allah all throughout the night.’ The Judge asked, ‘ did you fulfil them? The man calmly answered, ‘…yes.’ The judge answers, ‘you lie, your wife has said that you don’t, that’s why she’s asking for a divorce’.

But the man insisted that he had fulfilled the conditions, so the judge asked, ‘did you recite the full Quran everyday?’ The man answered yes. The Judge, baffled asked, ‘how? How can you do that?’ The man coolly answered, ‘I recite Surah Ikhlas three times a day and according to Prophet Muhammad (saw), reciting Surah Ikhlas three times is equivalent to reciting the whole Quran.’ The Judge was intrigued, so he asked, ‘how did you fast the whole year?’ The man answered, ‘ I fasted for the whole month of Ramadan, then kept another six fasts in the month of Shawwal, according to Prophet Muhammad (saw), keeping all of the fast of Ramadan then keeping six fasts in the month of Shawwal, is as if you have fasted for the whole year.’

The Judge remained silent, he couldn’t give a reply saying the man was wrong, so finally he asked, ‘ how did you stay awake all night and worship Allah, when your wife saw you sleeping?’ The Judge thought the man wouldn’t be able to answer this one, but the man, cool as a cucumber answered, ‘I prayed Salatul Isha with jamaat, then the next day prayed Salatul Fajr with jamaat, according to Prophet Muhammad (saw), the one who prays Salatul Isha and Salatul Fajr with jamaat, it is as if he had stayed up all night worshipping Allah.’ The Judge sat there looking at the man; the final verdict was about to be released… He said to the man and his wife, ‘…go, just go, there is nothing wrong with this marriage.


The Pious Husband..

Marriage to him is one half of the deen,
To please Allah (swt) is more than a dream.
He wears his beard for his Lord, to please and obey,
He turns to Allah (swt) for Salah at least five times a day.

He prays in the night and makes sure to wake you,
And strives during daylight to provide and protect you.
He lowers his gaze with firmness because he does not desire,
To displease Allah (swt) and face His just ire,

He asks advice from the ummah, and his wife too,
Before making decisions that he might later rue.
To his wife he is humble and always most kind,
Sharing his burdens with strength and clear mind.

He opens his mouth only to say what is best,
Weighing all options ‘fore denying a request.
He takes care of himself and family too
Knowing that Allah (swt) will see them through.

He is a pleasure from Allah (swt) above
Be thankful to Allah (swt) and His blessings through love

Alhumdulillah

Alhamdulillah (الحمد لله) is an Arabic phrase meaning "Praise to God" or "All praise belongs to God."
It is used by Muslim or Islamic people to say "Thank God" or in terms of saying 'I am good or everything went well'.

oh ALLAH Thank for whatever good and bad happen to me...i am please to bear for it .....

Oh Allah grant me and my family not haram of wealth but the Riski of barakat , whatever is it good or bad for us ,we feel thankful for it ...Alhumdulillah

It is reported that Al-Hasan Al-Basri said:

" It has reached me that when Allah the Mighty and Majestic blesses a people and gives them some good he asks them to be grateful. If they are grateful, He is All-Able to give them more. But if they are ungrateful, He is All-Able to turn His blessings into a punishment. "

{Related by Imam Al-Bayhaqi ih his book, Shu’ab Al-Iman}

Be Thankful ::..

Be thankful for having a home
Many people sleep on the street
Be thankful even if you are alone
You don't know in the future who you will meet

Be thankful even if you feel down
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Be thankful and don't you ever frown
Keep a smile on your face and destroy your anger

Be thankful for having parents who are sweet
Others have parents who are heartless
Be thankful for having them even if they beat
Orphans can tell you how without them they feel helpless

Be thankful for having food
Many people suffer from hunger
Be thankful for having a good mood
Others are depressed and their pain is a strong thunder

Be thankful when you feel pain
It means that you are still alive
Be thankful that you are not insane
Tough life cause insanity to arrive

Be thankful even If you fail
Others don't even have the chance to try
Be thankful for having a brain
That handicaps don't have and die

Be thankful when you make a mistake
Without mistakes you will never learn
Life never stops it's like a lake
And every minute you waste cannot be returned

Be thankful for everything you have
Be thankful for everything you own
Because if you don't
you will regret it when it's all gone

♥ "THANK YOU ALLAH... FOR EVERYTHING YOU HAVE GIVEN ME !!!"

Nine great benefits of reciting the Quran

Indeed to reflect on Allah’s verses is a form of worship that will draw one close to Allah Most High. This reflection is not a reckless and wandering one, rather it includes a study of the classical tafseer of the verses being pondered over, as this would fulfil Ibnul-Qayyim’s great advice, “Such as reflecting over a book which a person has memorised and he expounds it so that he may understand what its author intends by it.”
Indeed the Book of Allah is not a book like any other, it is the timeless Speech of Allah, not a created thing, the study guide for life and death and what comes after. Therefore it deserves a more careful study than anyone else’s speech. It necessitates that its reader return to the early narrations of those who witnessed its revelation and heard its explanation by the one deputed by Allah to rehearse and explain His Words to humanity (sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam). For if one would try to ponder over the meanings of the verses without having done this study, then surely the filth of the time that he lives in and his ignorance of the correct application and understanding that the early Muslims had would cause him to understand some things not intended by Allah Most High, and therefore he would go astray, thinking to be worshipping Allah. So every sincere Muslim who hopes to earn Allah’s Love breciting and reflecting over Allah’s Book, then let him hold tight to the meanings explained by the Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam), and those taught by the companions and their immediate followers, and the early scholars of Islam.

So dear brother and sister Muslim! Know that reciting and pondering over the Book of Allah, devoting your time regularly to its study and implementation has tremendous benefits in this life and the Next, so let us now look to just a few of them to attach ourselves more firmly to Allah’s Majestic Words. Each benefit stands as enough of an encouragement to shun any laziness we have and dedicate ourselves to the Qur’an.

1 - Reading and reflecting over the Qur’an fulfils an Islamic duty.

Indeed the Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) summarised this Religion with his statement: “The Religion is naseehah (sincerity)!” So then Tameem ibn Aws, may Allah be pleased with him, then said, “We asked, ‘To whom?’” He said: “To Allah, HIS BOOK, His Messenger, the leaders of the people, and their common folk.” [Muslim] The sincerity that is due to the Book of Allah includes its regular recitation, learning the rules of tajweed and reciting it beautifully, learning about its tafseer and the reasons for its revelation, affirming that it is the Truth, the perfect Speech of Allah and not part of the creation, honoring it and defending it, abiding by the orders and prohibitions found in it, teaching it and calling to it. [See Jaami’ul-’Uloom wal-Hikam of Ibn Rajab Al-Hambalee] So by reading and reflecting over the Qur’an, one fulfills an obligation and is rewarded for that. Upon fulfilling this obligation, the Qur’an then becomes a proof for him on the Day of Judgment! And that is our second benefit we will take by embracing this Noble Book...

2 - The Qur’an will be a proof for us on the Day of Judgment.

This is due to the statement of the Messenger: “And the Qur’an is a proof for you or against you.” [Muslim] So one of two things will occur with this proof, the Book of Allah. It will either be in your favor, a proof for you on the Day when you will need every single good deed, or it will be something standing against you, the very Speech of your Creator, a proof against you! Who could be saved from the terrors of that Day if Allah’s own Speech is against him?!?! Think carefully, dear Muslim brother or sister, about your position with the Qur’an! Are you neglecting it, contradicting it, being heedless of its orders and prohibitions, are you thinking deeply over it?! Will it be on your side on the Day of Judgment.?! O Allah! We ask you, by Your Glorious Speech and the rest of your beautiful Names and Attributes, to make the Qur’an a proof for us! O Allah! Don’t make the Qur’an a proof against us on that Day, and save us from the hellfire! For if Allah makes the Qur’an a proof in our favour on that Day, then it would also be an intercessor for us, when NO intercession will take place except by His Permission.

3 - The Qur’an will intercede for us on the Day of Judgment.

The proof: Aboo Umaamah relates that the Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said: “Read the Qur’an, for verily it will come on the Day of Standing as an intercessor for its companions.” [Muslim]

4 - Your status in this life will be raised.

In Saheeh Muslim, we find a lovely story, about how a man from the people of Jannah, ‘Umar ibn Al-Khattaab, understood this principle. Some men came to question him during his khilaafah about the leadership of Makkah, they asked, “Who do you use to govern Makkah?” He said, “Ibn Abzaa.” They asked, “And who is Ibn Abzaa?” Umar replied, “A freed slave from those we freed.” They remarked, “You left a freed slave in charge of the people of the Valley (the noble tribes of the Quraysh)!?!?” So he answered them, “Verily he is a reader of the Book of Allah and is knowledgeable about the obligations of the Muslims. Haven’t you heard the statement of your Messenger: “Verily Allah raises some people by this Book and lowers others by it.”

5 - You will be from the best of the people.

‘Uthmaan, may Allah be pleased with him, said that the Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said: “The best of you are the ones who learn the Qur’an and teach it to others” [Al-Bukhari]

6 - There are ten rewards for each letter you recite from the Qur’an.

As an authentic hadith in At-Tirmithee proves: “Whoever reads a letter from the Book of Allah, he will have a reward. And that reward will be multiplied by ten. I am not saying that “Alif, Laam, Meem” is a letter, rather I am saying that “Alif” is a letter, “laam” is a letter and “meem” is a letter.” So increase your recitation of the Qur’an to gain these merits, and to gain the following merit as well.

7 - The reciters of the Qur’an will be in the company of the noble and obedient angels.

‘Aa’ishah, may Allah be pleased with her, relates that the Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) said: “Verily the one who recites the Qur’an beautifully, smoothly, and precisely, he will be in the company of the noble and obedient angels. And as for the one who recites with difficulty, stammering or stumbling through its verses, then he will have TWICE that reward.” [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

So dear brother or sister Muslim, do not let the Shaytaan give you false excuses, such as “I am not an ‘Arab,” or “Its not my language.” This hadith is a firm proof against these whisperings. Dedicate yourself to the Book of Allah, whether you are an ‘Arab or not! The excuses have been eliminated and the pathway has been cleared for you to embrace the Book of Allah without holding back or offering excuses! And surely you will not hesitate to seek a teacher or a study circle for the Qur’an once you hear the last and perhaps greatest benefits of reading and contemplating over the Qur’an...

8 - Your position in Paradise is determined by the amount of Qur’an you memorize in this life!

‘Abdullaah ibn ‘Amr ibn Al-’Aas heard the Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam) saying: “It will be said to the companion of the Qur’an: Read and elevate (through the levels of the Paradise) and beautify your voice as you used to do when you were in the dunyaa! For verily, your position in the Paradise will be at the last verse you recite!” [Aboo Daawood and At-Tirmithee, saheeh]

9 - The Qur’an will lead you to Paradise!

The Prophet said: “The Qur’an is an intercessor, something given permission to intercede, and it is rightfully believed in. Whoever puts it in front of him, it will lead him to Paradise; whoever puts it behind him, it will steer him to the Hellfire.” [An authentic hadith found in At-Tabaraanee, on the authority of ‘Abdullaah ibn Mas’ood]

Know, dear brother or sister, that these nine benefits from the many benefits available can only be attained by a sincere commitment to the Book of Allah, not by a person’s mere statement, “I love the Qur’an, it’s beautiful.” Rather the heart must be sincerely attached to Allah’s Book and the limbs and tongue will follow in this attachment. You must know that we only mentioned a few of the numerous benefits of reading and reflecting over the Qur’an. There are many benefits that await your reading in the Qur’an and books of hadith, like the chapter of the Qur’an that will argue on your behalf in the grave, and that it is a physical healing, a source of rest and relaxation for your heart, among many other things. And Allah knows best. (Taken from Look 4 Islam)

Knowledge (‘Ilm)

Ibn ‘Abbas reported, the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said [to a group of companions]: “When you pass by the meadows of Paradise indulge freely in it! They said: O Messenger of Allah! What are the meadows of Paradise? He said: The circles of Knowledge (‘Ilm).” (At-Tabarani)

change

People change .Feelings change .
It doesn't mean that the love once shared wasn't true and real .It simply just means that sometimes when people grow ,they grow apart .

What is love?

Love is when Khadijah (R.A) spent her entire wealth on this Deen for the Man she loved... Love is when Muhammed (S.A.W) took the glass that Ayesha (R.A) drank from and put his lips on the exact place she put her's and then drank... Love is when Muhammed (S.A.W) had a race with Ayesha (R.A) and teased her when she lost... Love is when Muhammed (S.A.W) would take a bone that Ayesha (R.A) sucked meat from and would put his lips on that same place she chewed the meat from... Love is when Zainab (R.A) would sacrifice her most prized possession, her everything for her Husband... Real Love is not based on romance , candle light dinner and walks along the beach rather it is based On Respect , Compromise , Care And Trust....wake up people

The beautiful Advice from the Messenger of God

Anas Ibn Malik once mentioned that a Bedouin came to the Prophet and greeted him in the mosque. The Messenger of God asked the Bedouin where he was from and the Bedouin answered to the Messenger of God that he came from far away to ask questions on behalf of the Bedouin’s master. The following transpired as reported by Anas Ibn Malik:

I wish to be an intelligent man, what should I do?
The Prophet replied: FEAR ALLAH.

I wish to be a loyal servant to Allah and do what He wants me to do.
The Prophet replied: READ THE QURAN.

I wish to be enlightened and have peace of heart.
The Prophet replied: REMEMBER DEATH.

I wish to be protected against my enemies.
The Prophet replied: TRUST IN ALLAH.

I wish to follow the straight path.
The Prophet replied: DO GOOD TO OTHERS FOR ALLAH’S SAKE.

What should I do so that Allah will not abandon me.
The Prophet replied: DO NOT RESPOND TO THE DESIRES OF YOUR FLESH.

I wish to have a long life.
The Prophet replied: PRAISE AND THANK ALLAH ALWAYS.

I wish for prosperity.
The Prophet replied: BE IN A STATE OF ABLUTION AT ALL TIMES.

How can I save myself from hell fire?
The Prophet replied: PROTECT YOUR EYES AND YOUR TONGUE AND YOUR HANDS AND WHAT IS BELOW YOUR WAISTLINE AGAINST EVIL.

How can I cleanse myself from my sins?
The Prophet replied: SHED TEARS FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE AND REPENT BY UNDOING WHAT YOU HAVE DONE WRONG.

I wish to be a respectable person.
The Prophet replied: THEN DON’T ASK FOR ANYTHING FROM ANYBODY.

I wish to be honorable.
The Prophet replied: THEN DON’T DIVULGE THE WRONG DOINGS OF ANYONE.

What should I do to protect myself from the tortures of the grave?
The Prophet replied: RECITE THE SURAH MULK.

How should I calm my fear of the day of judgment?
The Prophet replied: REMEMBER ALLAH BEFORE YOU EAT ANYTHING AND BEFORE YOU SLEEP.

What should I do to feel the presence of Allah when I make my prayers?
The Prophet replied: GIVE THE UTMOST CARE IN TAKING YOUR ABLUTIONS AND IN BEING CLEAN AND PURE.

人類應該認識的真理

我們今天來談談大自然的一切來源，讓每個人了解人類也是大自然中的一份子，所以我們共同來研究，共同來了解自然界的一切奧妙和真理，以便認識這個世界的造物主---安拉

晝夜分明
天空地球的創造者--安拉(ALLAH)，為了利於人們而創造了白天和夜間，就是讓人們工作與休息，這種有規律的輪轉，可以使人們了解這裡有很多的真理存在，讓人們去參悟。

古蘭經(Quran)第41章第39節上說 : 「白天雨夜晚，太陽與月亮，是安拉(ALLAH)的跡象，你們不要拜太陽和月亮，如果你們敬拜的話，你們就應該敬拜造化了這一切的安拉(ALLAH)」

古蘭經(Quran)第7章第54節上說 :「調養你們的安拉(ALLAH)，在六日裡創造了天空與地面，然後合呼在(阿勒世)第八層天空 他以夜覆晝，並且以夜追逐，祂造化了日月星晨，一切都服從祂(ALLAH)的命令，的確唯有祂(ALLAH)執掌造化和命令，吉慶歸於安拉(ALLAH)，世界的養育者」

自然界的創造者----安拉(ALLAH)為人類創造白天讓人們去勞務生產，找尋人們生活的來源來維持人們的健康，以太陽之光照耀大地，讓人們看清一切，以太陽之光度與熱量照耀要大地的一切生物，使生物長得茂盛，讓人們取出其中的精華，為人們享用。

安拉(ALLAH)以月亮照射出祥和的光度，使人們停止勞動生產，讓人們休息，使人們利用睡眠的時間回復人們的精力，準備第二天從事生產工作，這是安拉(ALLAH)給人類多麼大的恩惠。

安拉(ALLAH)又以星晨，讓人們明白方向，便利人在大地上行走時的指南，這一切的一切都是為了人類的衣、食 、住、 行而著想的，因此人們必須要了解大自然借一切生物的來源，因為自然界的ㄧ切生物並不是生長出來後就完了，而是它的生長過程，攝取營養，結成果實等等都是一種奧妙存在，我們都知道很多很多的生物並沒有得到人們的照顧，而是自生自長，尤其長得特別茂盛，這就說明了安拉的萬能。

Love of ALLAH

LOVE OF ALLAH is everything,,love everything for ALLAH'S sake .
if you love any thing more than HIM you will cry forever!

FIRST Ten Days of Dhul-Hijjah

All praise is due to Allah, Lord of the Worlds. May peace and blessings be upon the Chief of the Messengers, Muhammad.

Indeed it is a great favour and blessing from Allah that He has made for His righteous servants periods of time within which they can increase in good deeds to attain great rewards and one of these opportunistic periods is the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah (the final month of the Islamic Calendar, in which the hajj is performed).

Superiority of the FIRST Ten Days of Dhul-Hijjah

The excellence of these ten days have been mentioned in the Qur’ân and the Sunnah.

1. Allah says in the Qur’ân:

“By the dawn and by the ten nights … “ [Al-Qur'ân 89:1-2]

Ibn Kathîr said that “the ten nights” referred to here are the ten days of Dhul-Hijjah, and this opinion was also held by Ibn Abbâs, Ibn az-Zubair, Mujâhid and others.

2. The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said:

“There are no deeds as excellent as those done in these ten days.” They (the companions listening) said, “Not even Jihâd?” He, peace be upon him, said, “No, not even Jihâd except a man who goes forth endangering his life and wealth and does not return with anything.” [Recorded by al-Imâm al-Bukhârî]

3. Allah says: ” … and remember the name of Allah in the appointed days.” [Al-Qur'ân 2:203]

Ibn Abbâs and Ibn Kathîr said this means in the ten days of Dhul-Hijjah.

4. The Messenger of Allah, upon whom be peace, said:

“There are no other days that are as great as these in the sight of Allah, the Most Sublime. Nor are there any deeds more beloved to Allah then those that are done in these ten days. So increase in tahlîl (to say lâ illaha illallah), takbîr (to say allahu akbar) and tahmîd (to say alhumdulillâh).” [Reported by at-Tabarânî in al-Mu'jum al-Kabîr]

5. With regards to the noble companion Saîd bin Jubair, when the days of Dhul-Hijjah began he would strive to increase in good actions with great intensity until he was unable to increase anymore. [Reported by ad-Dârimî]

6. Ibn Hajar says in Fath al-Bârî:

“The most apparent reason for the ten days of Dhul-Hijjah being distinguished in excellence is due to the assembly of the greatest acts of worship in this period, i.e. salawât (prayers), siyâm (fasting), sadaqah (charity) and the hajj (pilgrimage). In no other periods do these great deeds combine.“

What are the recommended acts in these days?

1. The Prayer – It is highly recommended to perform the obligatory acts at their prescribed times (as early as possible) and to increase oneself in the superogatory acts, for indeed, this is what brings a person closer to their Lord. The Messenger of Allah, upon whom be peace, said:

“Upon you is to increase in your prostration to Allah, for verily you do not prostrate to Allah with even one prostration, except that He raises you in degrees and decreases your sins because of it.” [Reported by Muslim]

2. Fasting – This has been mentioned as one of the acts of righteousness where Hanbada ibn Khâlid reports on the authority of his wife who reports that some of the wives of the Prophet, peace be upon him, said:

The Prophet, upon whom be peace, would fast on the ninth of Dhul-Hijjah, the day of Âshûra and three days in every month. [Recorded by Ahmad, Abu Dâwûd, an-Nisâî and others]

Al-Imâm an-Nawawî said that fasting in these ten days is extremely recommended.



3. Saying allahu akbar; lâ illaha illallah and alhamdulillâh – It is found in the aforementioned narration of Ibn ‘Umar:

“So increase yourselves in saying lâ illaha illallah, allahu akbar and alhamdulillâh.”

Al-Imâm Bukhârî, may Allah have mercy on him, said:

“Ibn ‘Umar and Abû Hurayrah, may Allah be pleased with them both, used to go out to the markets in the ten days saying the takbîr causing the people to follow them in this action.”

He also said:

“Umar ibn al-Khattâb used to say the takbîr in his minaret in Mina, whereupon the people of the mosque hearing ‘Umar, would start to say the takbîr as would the people in the markets until the whole of Mina was locked in glorifying Allah.”

Ibn ‘Umar used to say the takbîr in Mina during these ten days and after prayers, whilst on his bed, in his tent, in his gathering and whilst walking. What is recommended is to say the takbîr aloud due to the fact that ‘Umar ibn al-Khattâb, his son and Abû Hurayrah used to do likewise, may Allah be pleased with them all.

Strive with us O Muslims in reviving this sunnah that has become lost in these times and it was almost forgotten, even amongst the people of righteousness and goodness all of which is unfortunately in opposition to what the best of generations were upon (preserving and maintaining the superogatory acts).

There are a number of ways of making takbîr that have been narrated by the companions and their followers and from these ways is the following:

- Allahu akbar, allahu akbar, allahu akbar kabîrun.

- Allahu akbar, allahu akbar, lâ ilaha illallah, wallahu akbar, wallahu akbar, wa lillahil hamd.

- Allahu akbar, allahu akbar, allahu akbar, lâ ilaha illallah, wallahu akbar, allahu akbar wa lillâhil hamd.


4. Fasting on the day of ‘Arafah – Fasting has been affirmed on the day of ‘Arafah, where it has been confirmed from the Prophet, peace be upon him, that he said regarding fasting on the day of ‘Arafah:

“Be content with the fact that Allah will expiate for you your sins for the year before (the day of ‘Arafah) and the year after (the day of ‘Arafah).” [Reported by Muslim]

However, whoever is at ‘Arafah as a pilgrim then fasting is not expected of him, as the Prophet, peace be upon him, stopped at ‘Arafah to eat.

人生並沒有刪除鍵，請珍惜

人生有許多珍貴的東西，是值得我們一生回憶的；但也有許多值得放棄的東西，是值得我們去刪除的。有人說，人生沒有回頭鍵；也有人說，人生沒有刪除鍵。

　　在人生的旅途中，我們有很多的時間都是在回憶中度過的，盡管回憶讓我們痛苦過，悲傷過，快樂過，幸福過。但更多是讓我們明白了很多的道理，人生沒有後悔藥，人生沒有回頭路，人生沒有刪除鍵。

　　曾經想忘記很多的不愉快，忘記很多的痛苦，忘記很多不值得回憶的事，


忘記很多不值得回憶的人。但心緒總在不定的時間裡想起不定的事，也許是在一剎那，也許只在一秒鐘，也許只在一轉身，也許只在一個眼神裡，也許只在一個笑容裡，所有的記憶就會像風一樣吹過心房，不是你想不想的問題，也不是你愛不愛的問題，它只是一種意念，剎那間的感動，剎那間的凝聚。

　　有人說，過去的就讓它永遠過去吧，希望總在前方。有些事的確是我們應該忘記的，它只能存在於你的心裡，是一種教訓，是一種經驗，亦是一種財富。

　　有人說，在感情的世界裡是沒有刪除鍵的，我很同意這種看法。因為感情這東西，的確讓人歡喜讓人憂。盡管有很多的人都在說，放棄是一種美麗，放棄是一種更深的愛。但我還是想對朋友說：“放棄應該放棄的感情是對自己也是對所愛的人最大的尊重，但同時也是對自己對所愛的人最大的一種傷害。如果為了尊重就放棄，如果為了傷害就不要放棄。”生命是無聲的，但我們的心卻是流動的。感情是強求不到的，也是可遇不可求的一種機遇。

　　在感情的世界裡，有你的快樂，有你的牽掛，有你的思念，有你的聲音，更有你的生命，所以你是幸福的。對一個有生命力的人來說，他永遠都是快樂的，而對一個懦弱的人來說，他永遠是痛苦的；對一個有生命力的人來說，他的生活富有激情和感動，對一個懦弱的人來說，他的生活永遠都沒有太多的色彩。總而言之，樂極生悲不足悲，最可悲的是從來不曾想快樂過，平平淡淡，平平安安是福是禍只有自己心裡最明白。
