Why i love islam...


What I love about Islam is that any practice that it teaches has hikma (wisdom) and such a clear purpose behind it and so many benefits. Today I was waiting outside a supermarket In Brooklyn, and this black kid walked pass me about 15 years old. He saw me dressed in Islamic clothing kind of like a tobe and he said.
“Yo it’s your holiday right?”.
I replied “na not yet but we are fasting for 30 days”.
then he said “werd, that means ya can’t eat right”.
I said “Yup from sunrise to sunset”. Then he said "yo how you be doing that?".
I told him "people die all the time around the world because they don’t have food, and plus it makes us stronger”.
Then he said “Yo i feel you man”, “Waalaikumusalam”. I was happy to hear him say that in his Brooklyn accent, which i also possess as you can see.
But anyhow what I wanted to say was that anytime a person questions what we are doing because we are Muslim, so many thoughts automatically come into our head, that can make them think why Islam is so official. Especially when they question our prayers.
My first answer is that you can compare praying to taking a bath except it cleans our hearts and brings us back to our purpose in life, but on top of that, what other religion prays to God 5 times a day, this is why Islam is the truth, and when we are praying and we go into sajdah, we are bowing down and that is the highest level of Submission to Allah.
Another thing which I love about Islam is the brotherhood. The other day i was speaking to a non Muslim about Islam, an African American. I first told him that Islam was the first Religion to Eliminate Racism (Mashallah the same day he took shahadah, Inshallah Allah guide him), and in a beautiful Hadith our Prophet Muhammad said:
"There is no superiority for an Arab over a non-Arab, nor for a non-Arab over an Arab. Neither is the white superior over the black, nor is the black superior over the white -- except by piety."
Rasulullah SAW words in his final sermon
Especially in Brooklyn, if you enter a mosque, at least around my way, you see all types of brothers, Black, White, Arab, Desi, Spanish, and Islam came with this gift, and there is no person in history that came before Our Prophet with this teaching of equality.
So what im saying is be yourself, be Muslim, today i saw so many Jews wearing yamachas whatever that’s called, and it made me think I should wear a kufi, its my religious symbol, and if we do follow our Beloved Prophet Muhammad more and more we will see the significant change in our life’s. Just by doing little things, Non Muslims will question our practices as the kid did today, and Alhumduillah as a result I was able to open his mind up.
So Inshallah let’s Keep it Real and Remember that first and foremost we our Muslims, We all Submit To the Will of Allah. We can make such a big difference by reviving the sunnah in any way we can and this is another reason why i love Islam, anyone hating on Muslims, Stop watching the News, Go pick up some real books and read, read and learn why this Religion is so beautiful.
Inshallah Allah helps us all in this life, Ameennn

PLEASE TAKE TIME TO READ THIS INSHALLAH YOU WILL RECTIFY YOUR MISTAKES FROM THIS...

He remembered his grandmother' s warning about praying on time:
'My son, you shouldn't leave prayer to this late time'.
His grandmother' s age was 70 but, whenever she heard the Adhan, she got up like an arrow and performed the Solat.
He, however could never win over his ego to get up and pray.
Whatever he did, his Solat was always the last to be offered and he prayed it quickly to get it in on time.
Thinking of this, he got up and realized that there were only 15 minutes left before Salat-ul Isha'.
He quickly made Wudhu and performed Salat-ul Maghrib.
While making Tasbih, he again remembered his grandmother and was embarrassed by how he had prayed.
His grandmother prayed with such tranquillity and peace.
He began making Dua and went down to make Sajdah and stayed like that for a while.
He had been at work all day and was tired, very tired.
He awoke abruptly to the sound of noise and shouting.
He was sweating profusely. He looked around. It was very crowded.
Every direction he looked in was filled with people.
Some stood frozen looking around, some were running left and right and some were on their knees with their heads in their hands just waiting.
Pure fear and apprehension filled him as he realized where he was. His heart was about to burst.
It was the Day of Judgment.
When he was alive, he had heard many things about the questioning on the Day of Judgment, but that seemed so long ago.
Could this be something his mind made up?
No, the wait and the fear were so great that he could not have imagined this.
The interrogation was still going on.
He began moving frantically from people to people to ask if his name had been called. No one could answer him.
All of a sudden his name was called and the crowd split into two and made a passageway for him.
Two angels grabbed his arms and led him forward. He walked with unknowing eyes through the crowd. The angels brought him to the centre and left him there.
His head was bent down and his whole life was passing in front of his eyes like a movie.
He opened his eyes but saw only another world.
The people were all helping others.
He saw his father running from one lecture to the other, spending his wealth in the way of Islam.
His mother invited guests to their house and one table was being set while the other was being cleared.
He pleaded his case, 'I too was always on this path. I helped others. I spread the word of Allah. I performed my Salah. I fasted in the month of Ramadhan.'
'Whatever Allah ordered us to do, I did.'
'Whatever he ordered us not to do, I did not.'
He began to cry and think about how much he loved Allah.
He knew that whatever he had done in life would be less than what Allah deserved and his only protector was Allah He was sweating like never before and was shaking all over.
His eyes were fixed on the scale, waiting for the final decision. At last, the decision was made.
The two angels with sheets of paper in their hands, turned to the crowd.
His legs felt like they were going to collapse. He closed his eyes as they began
To read the names of those people who were to enter Jahannam.
His name was read first.
He fell on his knees and yelled that this couldn't be,
'How could I go to Jahannam? I served others all my life, I spread the word of Allah
to others.'
His eyes had become blurry and he was shaking with sweat.
The two angels took him by the arms.
As his feet dragged, they went through the crowd and advanced toward
the blazing flames of Jahannam.
He was yelling and wondered if there was any person who was going to help him.
He was yelling of all the good deeds he had done, how he had helped his father, his fasts, prayers, the Noble Qur'an that he read, he was asking if none of them would help him.
The Jahannam angels continued to drag him.
They had gotten closer to the Hellfire.
He looked back and these were his last pleas.
Had not Rasulullah [PBUH] said, 'How clean would a person be who bathes in a river five times a day, so too does the Salah performed five times cleanse someone of their sins?'
He began yelling, 'My prayers? My prayers? My prayers?'
The two angels did not stop, and they came to the edge of the abyss of Jahannam.
The flames of the fire were burning his face.
He looked back one last time, but his eyes were dry of hope and he had nothing left in him.
One of the angels pushed him in.
He found himself in the air and falling towards the flames.
He had just fallen five or six feet when a hand grabbed him by the arm and pulled him back.
He lifted his head and saw an old man with a long white beard.
He wiped some dust off himself and asked him, 'Who are you?'
The old man replied, 'I am your prayers.'
'Why are you so late?! I was almost in the Fire! You rescued me at the
last minute before I fell in.'
The old man smiled and shook his head, 'You always performed me at the
last minute, did you forget?'
At that instant, he blinked and lifted his head from Sajdah. He was in a sweat. He listened to the voices coming from outside.
He heard the Adhan for Salat-ul Isha.
He got up quickly and went to perform Wudhu.
Pass this on to your friends and family......
Maybe, you can help someone open their eyes.
And who knows?
Maybe, this is a good deed that can help you during The Day of Judgment. INSHA-ALLAH

فَإِذَا قَضَيۡتُمُ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ فَٱذۡڪُرُواْ ٱللَّهَ قِيَـٰمً۬ا وَقُعُودً۬ا وَعَلَىٰ جُنُوبِڪُمۡ‌ۚ فَإِذَا ٱطۡمَأۡنَنتُمۡ فَأَقِيمُواْ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ‌ۚ إِنَّ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ كَانَتۡ عَلَى ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ كِتَـٰبً۬ا مَّوۡقُوتً۬ا
"When ye have performed the act of worship, remember Allah, standing, sitting and reclining. And when ye are in safety, observe proper worship. Worship at fixed times hath been enjoined on the believers."[An-Nisa':103]

Fall in love



And one of His signs is that He created mates for you from yourselves that you may find rest in them, and He put between you love and compassion; most surely there are signs in this for a people who reflect. (Surah Al-Ruum, 30:21)
I read in an article today about the feeling of love serving as a pain-killer, even as good as morphine. These results were based on a study on a group of men and women and how they responded to images of their beloved.
One vital piece of information taken from the original article here is:
‘The scientists recruited Stanford students who were in the first nine months of a romantic relationship.
“We intentionally focused on this early phase of passionate love,” said Dr Mackey.
“We specifically were not looking for longer-lasting, more mature phases of the relationship.
“We wanted subjects who were feeling euphoric, energetic, obsessively thinking about their beloved, craving their presence.” ‘

I had always known that spouses were created for men and women both to find equilibrium within themselves. Allah ‘azza wa jall has told us in His own words. Frankly, I’m glad that the rest of the world other than our Ummah is catching on to the things we already know because of our faith.
As Muslimahs, we experience the feeling of courtship after marriage. As I read this article I asked myself, “What would be the first step towards feeling this love, everyday as a wife, bi’thnillah?”
Thinking of myself and the obvious contributing factor towards the happiness in my marriage, I can tell you that by Allah’s grace my life turned around the day I realized the importance of gratitude. You must, you absolutely must focus on all the things that your husband gets right. Start immediately. Grab a piece of paper and write down 6 things that you appreciate about him. The first 6 things that come to your mind, and only make sense to you, is the answer. It could be him respecting your hijab, or being good to your parents or children, anything. Write them down now.
Here lies the clincher. Thank Allah ‘azza wa jall for each of these things in your next salah. Thank Him and he will increase you in all that you appreciate.
For each time you do not want to think of your husband’s good qualities, make that list again, thinking of new factors to add to it. Increase your thanks, and let your husband know the things you are grateful for when he does them next.
You will fall in love with your husband everyday, the more you write what you appreciate, the more you will want to celebrate your marriage with him.
Marriage is not a chore, or a task. However it is a commitment that you make, regardless of who else is involved and how much he puts in. Honor your commitment by thanking Allah for all that you have, and other sisters might want as well.
Make du’a for the sisters who come to mind as you read this post. May Allah give all of us spouses to grow with as better Muslims for this world and the next, Ameen.

"Orang yang sombong adalah orang yang di beri penghidupan tapi tidak mahu sujud pada yang menjadikan kehidupan itu iaitu Allah Rabbul Alaamin, Tuhan sekelian alam. Maka bertasbihlah segala apa yang ada di bumi dan langit pada TuhanNya kecuali jin dan manusia yang sombong diri & Orang yang telah mati hatinya adalah orang yang diberi petunjuk melalui ayat-ayat Qur'an, Hadith dan cerita2 kebaikan namun merasa tidak ada apa2 kesan di dalam jiwa untuk bertaubat & orang yang mempunyai akal adalah orang-orang yang menghuni syurga kelak kerana telah mengunakan akal sewaktu di dunia untuk menghindari siksa neraka ".

Renungan Bersama...

Daripada Abu Hurairah r.a,daripada Nabi S.A.W bahawa baginda bersabda:
“Jibril telah datang kepadaku pada malam Nisfu Sya’ban(15 Sya’ban)dan berkata:
“Wahai Muhammad pada malam ini dibuka pintu langit dan pintu-pintu Rahmat,oleh itu bangunlah dan kerjakanlah solat serta angkatlah kepalamu dan dua tanganmu ke langit(ke atas)”
Baginda bertanya:
“Apakah ertinya malam ini??”
Jibril menjawab”
“Malam ini dibukakan 300 ratus pintu Rahmat dan pintu Keampunan.Allah mengampunkan dosa sekalian orang yang tidak menyekutukan-Nya dengan sesuatu kecuali ahli sihir,kahin(tukang tilik),orang yang suka bermusuhan,peminum arak,orang yang terus-menerus melakukan zina,pemakan harta riba,derhaka terhadap kedua Ibu Bapa,yang suka mengadu-adu dan yang memutuskan tali Silaturrahim.”Kesemua mereka itu tidak diampunkan Allah sehingga mereka bertaubat serta meninggalkan amalan-amalan yang salah itu.

Nabi S.A.W pun keluar kemudian mengerjakan solat.Baginda menangis ketika sujud,baginda berdoa maksudnya:
“Aku berlindung kepada-Mu ya Allah daripada siksaan dan kemurkaan-Mu.Aku tidak dapat menghitung pujian untuk-Mu sebagaimana Engkau memuji Zat-Mu sendiri.Segala puji untuk-Mu sehingga Engkau redha”(Zubdah al-Majalis)

Daripada Abdulah Bin Umar r.a daripada Nabi S.A.W sabdanya yang bermaksud:
“Lima waktu tidak ditolak sesuatu do’a itu,iaitu malam Jumaat,malam 10 Muharram,malam Nisfu Sya’ban,malam Aidil Fitri dan malam Aidil Adha”

ujian


Kadang kala Dia memberi sebelum si hamba sempat menadah tangan untuk meminta. Kerana
dia sangat mengerti keperluan hambaNya. Dia yang menjadikan si hamba dan Dia jugalah yang
mengatur liku-liku perjalanan hidup hambaNya. Apabila permintaan si hamba tidak
diperkenankan, itu bukanlah kerana Dia 'tuli' dan tidak mendengar rintihan serta pengaduan
hambaNya. Ada hamba-hamba yang dikasihiNya, yang dibiarkan menderita dan bersedih,
dibiarkan terlantar kesakitan, dibiarkan susah dan miskin, kerana begitulah caranya Dia
mendidik si hamba; diberi ujian-ujian yang akan menambahdekatkan si hamba denga Nya dan
melebar lorong buat si hamba dalam kembara di dunia menuju ke syurga yang abadi.

Hamba yang menderita dan bersedih pasti akan mengadukan halnya kepada Dia. Hamba yang terlantar dan kesakitan pasti akan merintih memohon keringanan dariNya. Bumi ini milik-Nya, lalu
selayaknyalah kita sebagai penghuni yang kerdil ini selalu mengadu kepadaNya. Agar kita tahu
bersyukur jika diberi rezeki yang melimpah ruah dengan cara membahagi-bahagikannya pula
kepada penghuni yang lain. Juga supaya kita tahu bersabar jika diberi rezeki yang sedikit,
kerana kesabaran itu sendiri yang menjadi makanan hati. Sama ada kita bersyukur atau
bersabar, di situ Dia menjadikan ganjaran pahala sebagai bonus untuk menempah istirehat di
syurga.

Adakalanya Allah memberi di saat seorang hamba itu sudah hampir putus harapan. Waku itu
hatinya hanya diserahkan kepada Tuhan. Apa hendak jadi pun, jadilah.. kerana Dia yang
mengatur ketentuan. Apa jua masalah, apa jua musibah yang menimpa, itulah pengaturan Tuhan. Hikmah di sebaliknya harus digali di samping jangan lupa terus bermohon, solat hajat, bermunajat serta memperbanyakkan taubat. Jika masalah masih berpanjangan dan sudah putus ikhtiar kita, maka
selaku hamba wajarlah kita kembali padaNya.

Terimalah hakikat bahawa itulah ujian untuk kita, agar diberi-Nya pahala sabar dan sebagai ingatan kepada kita supaya tahu bersyukur dengan nikmat pemberiannya. Untungnya orang mukmin..semakin banyak masalah semakin mustajab doanya. Bukan perjuangan tanpa kesulitan tapi dalam kesulitan ada ketenangan & kekuatan. Kita tidak bersendirian kerana Allah pasti akan bersama!
