Abû Hurairah (RA) states that Nabî has said: “The Hajî and one who performs Umrah are the Ambassadors of Allâh. If they beseech Him, He would respond to them, and if they seek His forgiveness He would forgive them.” (‘Ibn Majah)


As the guest of Allâh, a Hajî has the distinguished status of being the ambassador of Allâh. He enjoys the special mercy and forgiveness of Allâh for responding to His invitation. Abû Hurairah (RA) states that Nabî has said: “He who performs Hajj without being vulgar or obscene, returns (home cleansed from all sin) as the day his mother gave birth to him.” (Bukharî & Muslim)


‘Ibn ‘Umâr (RA) states that Nabî has said: “When you meet the Hâjî, greet him, shake his hands and instruct him to seek forgiveness for you before he enters his home, for undoubtedly he is forgiven.” (Ahmed)


Hajj affords the best training grounds for the revival of one’s faith and purity of character. It is the most sublime manifestation of the universal brotherhood of the Muslim Ummah. It is a journey of intensified devotion and discipline. An exercise of spiritual enrichment and moral rearmament.


A Hajî is therefore expected to display:


A dynamic revival of faith and trust in Allâh


A character infused with humility and purity,


A compelling concern for the general well-being of the greater Ummah.


A commitment to fulfill all obligatory observances


A pledge to avoid all prohibited deeds


An understanding of the purpose of life


A conscious endeavour to prepare for the Hereafter


Hajj is not a lifeless display of cold rituals.


Allâh has cautioned us against becoming complacent with the performance of rituals without appreciating the spirit and intent of particular forms of worship. The Holy Qur’ân states: “It is not righteousness that you turn your faces towards East or West; but it is righteousness to believe in Allâh, the Last Day, the Angels, the Books, and the Messengers; to spend of your wealth - in spite of your love for it - on your kin, on the orphans, on the needy, on the wayfarer, on those who ask and for the ransom of slaves. (Righteousness is) to be steadfast in prayer and to give Zakât, to fulfill contracts that you have made; to be firm and patient in pain and adversity, and in all instances of panic. Such are the people of truth, the Allâh conscious.”


The Hajî needs to keep his spirit alive by emulating the following directives of Nabî .


Abû Dharr (RA) narrates that he asked Nabî for advice. He, Nabî said: “I advise you to remain conscious of Allâh for it is the best adornment for all your affairs. I said: “Give me more advice.” He replied: “Commit yourself to the recitation of the Qur’ân and the Zikr of Allâh, for it is a means of extolling your name in the heavens and a light for you on earth.” I said: “Give me more advice.” He went onto say: “Commit yourself to prolonged silence, for it is a means of repelling Shaitân and a will help you in the affair of your Deen. I said: “Give me more advice.” He said: “Speak the truth even though it may be bitter.” I said: “Give me more advice.” He said: “Do not fear the blame of a critic regarding (your duties) towards Allâh.” I said: “Give me more advice.” He said: “What you know of your (evil) self should prevent you from (talking ill) of people.” (Mishkât)


May the Almighty accept your Hajj, make it a source of your salvation in the two worlds [Dunya and Hereafter] and grant you the ability to say “Labbaik” to the call of Allâh at all times. Aameen

THINK(poem)


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Assalamualaykum warahmatullah


Before you think of saying an unkind word


Think of someone who can't speak


Before you complain about the taste of your food


Think of someone who has nothing to eat


Before you complain about your husband or wife


Think of someone who's crying out to God for a companion


Today before you complain about life


Think of someone who went too early to heaven


Before you complain about your children


Think of someone who desires children but they're barren


Before you argue about your dirty house; someone didn't clean or sweep


Think of the people who are living in the streets


Before whining about the distance you drive


Think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet


And when you are tired and complain about your job


Think of the unemployed, the disabled and those who wished they had your job.


But before you think of pointing the finger or condemning another


Remember that not one of us are without sin and we all answer to one maker


And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down


Put a smile on your face and thank God you're alive and still around.


Life is a gift from Allah, fullfil it to the most with the intention of pleasing your Lord.

asslaam-ul-aikum


i was just woundering if anyone could help me. well i recieved the following through an email an i werent sure if it was true so i would like a little help is it true?


Very interesting findings of Dr. Tariq Al Swaidan might grasp your attention:


Dr.Tarig Al Swaidan discovered some verses in the Holy Qur'an


That mention one thing is equal to another, i.e. men are equal to women.


Although this makes sense grammatically, the astonishing fact is that the number of


times the word man appears in the Holy Qur'an is 24 and number of times the word


woman appears is also 24, therefore not only is this phrase correct in


the grammatical sense but also true mathematically, i.e. 24 = 24.


Upon further analysis of various verses,


he discovered that this is consistent throughout the whole Holy Qur'an where it says one thing is like another. See below for astonishing result of the words mentioned number of times in Arabic Holy Qur'an


Dunia (one name for life) 115.


Aakhirat (one name for the life after this world) 115


Malaika (Angels) 88 . Shayteen (Satan) 88


Life 145 ...... Death 145


Benefit 50 . Corrupt 50


People 50 .. Messengers 50


Eblees (king of devils) 11 . Seek refuge from Eblees 11


Museebah (calamity) 75 . Thanks ! 75


Spending (Sadaqah) 73 . Satisfaction 73


People who are mislead 17 .D Dead people 17


Muslimeen 41 .J Jihad 41


Gold 8 .E Easy life 8


Magic 60 .F Fitnah (dissuasion, misleading) ! 60


Zakat (Taxes Muslims pay to the poor) 32 ....


Barakah (Increasing or blessings of wealth) 32


Mind 49 .N Noor 49


Tongue 25 .S Sermon 25


Desite 8 .F Fear 8


Speaking publicly 18 .P Publicising 18


Hardship 114 .... Patience 114


Muhammed(s.a.w) 4 .S Sharee'ah ( Muhammed's(s.a.w) teachings) 4


Man 24. Woman 24


And amazingly enough have a look how many times


the following words appear:


Salat 5, Month 12 , Day 365,


Sea 32, Land 13


Sea + land = 32+ 13= 45


Sea = 32/45*100q.=71.11111111%


Land = 13/45*100 = 28.88888889%


Sea + land 100.00%


Modern science has only recently proven that the water covers


71.111% of the


earth, while the land covers 28.889%.


Is this a coincidence? Question is that


Who taught Prophet Muhammed (PBUH) all this?


Reply automatically comes in mind that


ALMIGHTY ALLAH


taught him.


This as the


Holy Qur'an


also tells us this.


please pass this on to all your friends


Aayah 87 of Suraa (Chapter) Al-Anbia ! < /P>

LA ILAHA ILA ANTA

Teaching arabic in the english schools in britain along with french and german, this is the newest pole going in UK, on BBc news round is the following:


A new report suggests it might be a good idea to teach Arabic as a language in schools alongside French and German.

<b>Kindness surely pays back</b>


One day, a poor boy who was selling goods from door to door to pay his way through school, found he had only one thin dime left, and he was hungry.


He decided he would ask for a meal at the next house. However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, "How much do I owe you?"


"You don't owe me anything," she replied. "Mother has taught us never to accept pay for a kindness." He said..... "Then I thank you from my heart."


Year's later that young woman became critically ill. The local doctors were baffled. They finally sent her to the big city, where they called in a specialist to study her rare disease. After a long struggle, the battle was won. Finally business office pass the final bill to specialist for approval. He looked at it, then wrote something on the edge and the bill was sent back.


When she got the bill, she feared to open it, for she was sure it would take the rest of her life to pay for it all. Finally she looked, and something caught her attention on the side of the bill.


She read these words..... "Paid in full with one glass of milk"


(Signed) Dr. Hasan Amin.


Tears of joy flooded her eyes.
