Your Message: Smilies [get more]	[quote="Muslimah" pid='22182' dateline='1159733717'] "Those (Muslim rulers) who, if We give them power in the land, (they) order for the [five compulsory, congregational] prayers, to pay the Zakat and they enjoin the good, and forbid evil. And with Allah rests the end of (all) matters (of creatures)." (Quran 22:41) Sobhan Allah, the power in the land as per this Ayah, is not restricted only on physical land. But when Allah Gives power in any given domain, field, area, a Muslim must be up to the trust. Must establish prayer, and pay Zakat. And establishing prayer entails more than just the performing our salat on time. Paying zakat invloves close observance of the source of income, looking for the eligible category etc. The last duty with which one is charged, is to enjoin good and forbid evil. This duty strechtes beyond merely what is commonly percieved. It includes even helping others to learn, gain knowledge, improve. It invovles more than merely admonishing one another. It invovles helping one another for instance to overcome egoistic inspiration. sobhan Allah, this verse moved me so much and I felt i must share it with all of u here. [/quote]
