(1)*(AYAH OF THE WEEK [Verse from the Qur'an])
Allah Subhanu Wata’ala said in His Book the Qur’an:
Say (to them): “Allah gives you life, then causes you to die, then He will assemble you on the Day of Resurrection about which there is no doubt. But most of mankind know not.” (Al-Jathiya 45:26)
***********************************************************
(2)*(HADITH OF THE WEEK [saying By the Prophet, SAW])
Abdullah ibn Abbas (RAA) said: The Prophet (SAW) said:
“He who satiates himself, while his immediate neighbors are hungry, is not a true believer.”
***********************************************************
(3)*(DU`A’ OF THE WEEK [supplication])
Dua-e-Qunoot (read in Witr):
O Allah! We beg help from You alone; ask forgiveness from You alone, and turn towards You and praise You for all the good things and are grateful to You and are not ungrateful to You and we part and break off with all those who are disobedient to you. O Allah! You alone do we worship and pray exclusively to You and bow before You alone and we hasten eagerly towards You and we fear Your severe punishment and hope for Your Mercy as your severe punishment is surely to be meted out to the unbelievers.

(8)*(DR. ROBERT GOLDSTEIN ONLY GETS 12 ½ YEARS)
Case # 03CR116-T-30-MAP Robert Goldstein
According to the Pinellas County Sheriff’s deputies:
Goldstein carried in his home light-armor rockets,
Goldstein carried in his home hand grenades,
Goldstein carried in his home machine guns,
Goldstein carried in his home sniper rifles,
Goldstein carried in his home more than 30 homemade bombs and not the least
Goldstein carried in his home 25,000 rounds of ammunition.
Authorities soon found the list of mosques, a meticulous plan of attack and the stated objective: "Kill all `rags' at this Islamic Education Center -- ZERO residual presence -- maximum effect."
Goldstein created a diagram with instructions to storm the main building and "shred" Muslims with a submachine gun, to detonate bombs to kill survivors, and to set trip wires to explode if anyone escaped to the parking lot. Other trip wires would deter arriving police cars.
First, we would like to thank God and then the authorities in the Pinellas County for their great job. We thank them for saving the thousands of lives Goldstein was planning to kill. And the Islamic Centers Goldstein was planning to terrorize.
We consider Dr. Robert Goldstein is considered a professional terrorist. He was planning major terrorist attacks on the American civilian men, women and children in the area of Florida, USA.
Today and after the light sentence Goldstein got, we ask the Governor of Florida and the authorities who are in charge of our safety and security to consider him as a terrorist and to take him to the court of justice for a fair trail.

(12)*(NEWS FROM THE MUSLIM WORLD)
No crucial differences between Sunni and Shi’a, says Mufti
Cairo, Rabi Thani 16/Jun 16 IINA) – The Mufti of Egypt, Dr. Ahmed Al-Tayyib, has said that the differences between
the Sunni and the Shi’a are just like differences between any other schools of thought, and added that the Holy Qur’an that is being read by the Shi’a is exactly the same as that read by the Sunni, without an iota of difference.
He said the Shi’as believe in all the articles of the Islamic faith, just like anyone else, added that whoever claims that they have a different type of the Qur’an is just telling lies. The Mufti said that those who say that the Shi’a are dissenters is also telling a lie, and is only serving the aims and whims of the enemies of the Muslim Ummah.
The Mufti said that the Sunnis and the Shi’a have differences of opinion on the Imamate, but these are not differences that would justify ostracizing them from the fold of Islam. He said the Shi’a might not be doing the right thing in observing the ritual of inflicting pain on themselves when they commemorate the death of their ancestral leader, but this is something that should be reconsidered by them.
