Today was prophesied !

Just watch this video brothers and sisters. We do have to do more than what we are doing. Our responsibility does not end with a simple dua. Dua is what every Muslim should do but apart from that we have to prepare something for future, a better future. No don't get me wrong, a future not in this world but the aakhira. Start planning, get prepared, know your responsibilities, be aware and yes always keep yourselves on the hands of Allah because he is the one who is going to show you the "siratul mustaqeem (the right path)"

Muslims calling for Shariyat in Tunisia

Subhanallah!!!!! Allah hu Akbar!!!!! The scenes will definitely give you goosebumps. Spare some time for this video.

How it all started - Palestinian oppression

Following is the extract from the Yasir Arafat's address to the UN General Assembly (November 13, 1974)

The roots of the Palestine question reach back in the closing years of the 19th century, in other words, to that period which we call the era of colonialism and settlement as we know it today. This is precisely the period which Zionism as a scheme was born; its aim was the conquest of Palestine by European immigrants, just as settlers colonized and indeed raided most of Africa. Just as colonialism and its demagogues dignified their conquests, their plunder and limitless attacks upon the natives of Africa with appeals to a "civilizing and modernizing" mission, so too did waves of Zionists immigrants disguise their purposes as they conquered Palestine. Just as colonialism as a system and colonialists as its instrument used religion, color, race and language to justify the African's exploitation and its cruel subjugation by terror and discrimination, so too were these methods employed as Palestine was usurped and its people hounded from their national homeland.

The Jewish invasion of Palestine began in 1881. Before the first large wave of immigrants started arriving, Palestine had a population of half a million: most of the population was either Muslims or Christian and only 20,000 Jewish. Every segment of the population enjoyed the religious tolerance characteristic of our civilization  Between 1882 and 1917 the Zionist Movement settled approximately 50,000 European Jews in our homeland. To do that it resorted to trickery and deceit in order to implant them in our midst.
Its success in getting Britain to issue Balfour Declaration once again demonstrated the alliance between Zionism and imperialism. Furthermore by promising to Zionist movement what was not hers to give, Britain showed how oppressive the rule of imperialism was. In the wake of Balfour Declaration and over a period of 30 years, the Zionist movement succeeded, in collaboration with its imperialist ally, in settling more European Jews on the land thus usurping the properties of Palestine Arabs.

By 1947 the number of Jews had reached 600,00: they owned about 6 percent of Palestinian Arab land. The figure should be compared to the population of Palestine which at that time was 1,250,000.

As a result of the collusion between the mandatory Power and the Zionist movement and with the support of some countries , this general Assembly early in its history approved a recommendation to partition our Palestinian homeland. This took place in an atmosphere poisoned with questionable actions and strong pressure. The General Assembly partitioned our what it had no right to divide an indivisible homeland. They waged a war on being granted 54 % of land and hence they occupied 81% of the land uprooting millions of Arabs. They occupied 524 Arab towns and villages of which they destroyed 385.

With support from imperialist and colonialist Powers, it managed to get itself accepted as a United Nations member. It further succeeded in getting the Palestine question deleted from the agenda of the UN and deceiving world public opinion by presenting the cause as a problem of refugees in need either of charity from do-gooders or settlement in a land not theirs.

In addition to the many instances of aggression committed by this entity against the Arab States, it has launched two large-scales wars, in 1956 and 1967, thus endangering the world peace and security.
Why should Arab Palestinian people be responsible for the Jewish immigration, if such problems exist in the minds of some people? Why do not the supporters of these problems open their own countries, which can absorb help these immigrants?

Those who call us terrorist wish to prevent world public opinion from discovering the truth about us and from seeing the justice. They seek to hide terrorism and tyranny of their acts, and our own posture of self-defense.
The difference between revolutionary and the terrorist lies in the reason for which they fight. For whoever stands by a just cause and fights for freedom and liberation and his land from the invaders, the settlers and the colonialists, cannot possibly be called terrorist; otherwise the American people in their struggle for liberation from the British colonialist would have been terrorist, the European resistance against the Nazis would be terrorism, the struggle for Asian, African and Latin American peoples would also be terrorism.
Zionist terrorism  which was waged against the Palestine people to evict it from its country and usurp its land is registered in our official documents Houses, towns, villages were destroyed and people were forced to leave their homeland at the gun-point.
Their terrorism fed on hatred and this hatred was even directed against the olive tree in the country. They see in the olive tree and in the child and enemy that should be exterminated. Their terrorism even reached the sacred place like Jerusalem.

I must mention the fire in the Al- Aqsa mosque and the dis figuration of many of the monuments, which are both historic and religious in character.

The small number of Palestinian Arabs who were not uprooted by the Zionists in 1948 are at present refugees in their own homeland. Israeli laws treat them as second class citizens and even third class citizens

The parable of the pencil

In the beginning the pencil maker took the pencil aside just before putting into the box saying, “There are five things you need to know,” he told the pencil, “before I send you out into the world. Always remember them and never forget, and you will become the best pencil you can be.

ONE: You will be able to do many great things, but only if you allow yourself to be held in Someone's hand.
TWO: You will experience a painful sharpening from time to time, but you'll need it to become a better pencil.
THREE: You will be able to correct any mistakes you might make.
FOUR: The most important part of you will always be what's inside.
AND FIVE: On every surface you are used on, you must leave your mark. No matter what the condition, you must continue to write.”
The pencil understood and promised to remember, and went into the box with purpose in its heart.
Now replacing the place of the pencil with you; always remember them and never forget, and you will become the best person you can be.

ONE: You will be able to do many great things, but only if you allow yourself to be held in Allah's hand. And allow other human beings to access you for the many gifts you possess.
TWO: You will experience a painful sharpening from time to time, by going through various problems, but you'll need it to become a stronger person.
THREE: You will be able to correct any mistakes you might make.
FOUR: The most important part of you will always be what's on the inside.
AND FIVE: On every surface you walk through, you must leave your mark. No matter what the situation, you must continue to do your duties. By understanding and remembering, let us proceed with our life on this earth having a meaningful purpose in our heart. - Author Unknown.

Allah's Zikr always

It really surprises me when people who doesn't know the meaning of Mashallah and Inshallah try to say that in public. My belief is if you don't know don't say it.(Read the post fully to form your opinion)

The other day I was walking down the street when I overheard someone talking on the phone, "Mashallah, I will be there in 5 minutes"

FYI: the meaning of those two words are given below:

Mashallah = it is used as an expression of apprecia...

tion/thanks/respect, while at the same time serving as a reminder that all accomplishments are so achieved by the will of Allah. It is generally said upon hearing good news.

Inshallah = Inshallah means Allah willing. Nothing happens beyond the will of Allah. If he wills he can make anything happen from the splitting of the moon and river to raising if dead to even the fluttering of leaves.

But then I realised that there's no harm in doing that. ALLAH's zikr whenever you do and on whatever topic you do, you'll get rewarded.

So apologiges from myself......! 

The more you say Allah's name the more benefited you will be...

"Verily, the Muslims (those who submit to Allah in Islam) men and women... (up to)... And the men and the women who remember Allah much with their hearts and tongues. Allah has prepared for them forgiveness and a great reward (i.e., Jannah).'' (Quran - 33:35)

The difference between the one who makes Zikr and the one who does not is well explained in this Hadith. Abu Musa Al-Ash`ari (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet said, "The similitude of one who remembers his Lord and one who does not remember Him, is like that of the living and the dead.'' (Al-Bukhari and Muslim). 

Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah said, "He who recites after every prayer: Subhan Allah (Allah is free from imperfection) 33 times; Alhamdu lillah (praise be to Allah) 33 times; Allahu Akbar (Allah is Greatest) 33 times; and completes the hundred with: La ilaha illallahu, wahdahu la sharika lahu, lahul-mulku wa lahul-hamdu, wa Huwa `ala kulli shai'in Qadir (there is no true god except Allah. He is One and He has no partner with Him. His is the sovereignty and His is the praise, and He is Omnipotent), will have all his sins pardoned even if they may be as large as the foam on the surface of the sea.'' (Muslim). 

So, next time you're waiting for a bus or walking to school, remember to think about the greatness of Allah. "And remember Allah much, that you may be successful.'' (62:10).
