Footprints


"Just in the same way, whenever We sent a Warner before thee to any people, the wealthy ones among them said "We found our fathers following a certain religion, and we will certainly follow in their footsteps". He said "What! Even if I brought you better guidance than that which ye found your fathers following?" They said "For us, we deny that ye (prophets) are sent (on a mission at all)" (QS 43:23-24)

A Friend's Leg


Narrated al-Mughira: "The Prophet used to stand (in the prayer) or pray till both his feet and legs swelled. He as asked why (he offered such unbearable prayer) and he said 'should I not be a thankful slave". ( HR al Bukhari V2B21N230)

For a friend who lost his leg due to an accident this month. I pray for God to give him His blessing and exchange it with His forgiveness and exchange it with with something far more better than that only He can give. He has everything to give and He will always be together with someone who have patience and acceptence. InnalillAhi wa inna iLaihi raji'uun.

"Of the Jews there are those who displace words from their (right) places, and say;'We hear and we disobey'; and 'Hear, may you not hear,' and 'Ra'ina'; with a twist of their tongues and slander to Faith. If only they had said:'We hear and we obey'; and 'Do hear' and 'Do look at us'; it would have been better for them, and more proper; but God hath cursed them for their Unbelief; but few of them will believe."

Ramadhan, the Blessed month



"Ramadhan is the (month) in which was sent down the Qur'an, as a guide to mankind, also clear (Signs) for guidance and judgement (between right and wrong), So every one of you who is present (at his home) during that month should spend it fasting, but if any one is ill, or on a journey, the prescribed period (should be made up) by days later, God intends every facility for you; He does not want to put to difficulties, (He wants you) to complete the prescribed period, and to glorify Him in that He has guided you; and perchance ye shall be grateful" (QS 2:185)

Hope this ramadhan we could make a better person out of ourselves, attained God blessing and forgiveness and more importantly be a faithful servant to Allah.

May God guide us All

Three but Not One



"O People of the Book! Commit no excesses in your religion; Nor say of God aught but the truth. Christ Jesus the son of Mary was (no more than) a Messenger of God, and His Word, which He bestowed on Mary, and a Spirit proceeding from Him: so believe in God and His Messengers. Say not 'Trinity'; desist; it will be better for you; for God is One God; Glory be to Him; (far exalted is He) above having son. To Him belong all things in the heavens and on earth; And enough is God as a Disposer of affairs" (QS 4:171)

Allah's Apostle said, "Every child is born with a true faith of Islam (i.e. to worship none but Allah Alone) but his parents convert him to Judaism, Christianity or Magainism, as an animal delivers a perfect baby animal. Do you find it mutilated?" Then Abu Huraira recited the holy verses: "The pure Allah's Islamic nature (true faith of Islam) (i.e. worshipping none but Allah) with which He has created human beings. No change let there be in the religion of Allah (i.e. joining none in worship with Allah). That is the straight religion (Islam) but most of men know, not." (30.30) (HR Bukhari)
