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

Living Dead



"It is God Who causeth the seed-grain and the date-stone to split and sprout, He causeth the living to issue from the dead, and He is the One to cause the dead to issue from the living, That is God; then how are ye deluded away from the truth" (QS 6:95)

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)

High Above



"Wherever ye are, death will find you out, even if ye are in the towers built up strong and high!' If some good befalls them, they say 'This is from God'; but if evil, they say 'This is from thee' (O Prophet) Say 'All things are from God' But what hath come to these people, that they fail to understand a single fact?" (QS 4:78)

Deep



Narrated Abu Said: The Prophet said "You will follow the wrong ways, of your predecessors so completely and literally that if they should go into the hole of a mastigure, you will go there" We said "O Allah Apostle! Do you mean the Jews and the Christians?" He replied "Whom else?" (Meaning of course the Jews and the Christians). (HR Bukhari V4B56N662)

Welcome





"When thy Lord drew forth from the Children of Adam - from the loins - their descendents, and made them testify concerning themselves, (saying): 'Am I not your Lord (who cherishes and sustains you)?' They said: 'Yea! We do testify' (This), lest ye should say on the Day of Judgement: 'Of this we were never mindful" (QS 7:172)
