[1]General: WEEKLY LESSONS 38: 23/6/2003 23/4/1424
One time a scholar asked one of his students, "You have spent a long time with me, what have you learned? He said I learned eight things: First,I looked to the creation. Everyone has a loved one. When he goes to the grave, he leaves his loved one. Therefore, I made my loved one my good deeds; that way, they will be with me in the grave. Second, I looked to the verse, 'But as for him who feared to stand before his Lord and restrained his soul from lust,' and, therefore, I struggled against my desires so I could stay obeying Allah.

[2]Muslimah General: Da`awa 3/3
THE MEANS
Means Serve Objectives
The means of any mission must serve its objectives. So in order to utilise those means, our objectives for Da'wah in the West must be clear and ambitious, but realistic and achievable. Through knowledge and wisdom, Da'ees can pioneer social change, even if it was minor. For their Da'wah to be effective and convincing, their means of Da'wah work requires broad perceptiveness and open channels of communication.
No Justification for un-Islamic Means
The work of Da'wah necessitates the employment of lawful means and the Da'ee must not adopt any mean or instrumentality to achieve his objectives save those allowed by Islam. It is not permissible to make use of any mean that is forbidden in essence as a pretext to convey the Message. It is necessary here to distinguish between means that are forbidden in essence from means that are essentially lawful but are chiefly employed in forbidden tasks or for forbidden purposes.
Today, one can witness how falsehood has had no shame or hesitation in spreading its ideas and advertising its belief. On the contrary, it has done so with sheer arrogance and pride, through the exploitation of women, violence, propaganda, misguiding the masses, violation of treaties and so on. The Da'ee must not engage in such hideous means, but let his motto be the principle of Shari'ah which dictates, 'the mean does not justify the objective.'

[3]Muslimah worship: PARTS OF FAITH(12)
Part Forty-Nine of Faith
Obedience of People Charged with Authority
It is proved by virtue of the Ayah:” O ye who believe obey Allah, and obey the apostle, and those charged with authority among you.” (Quran 4:59)
According to an explanation of the Quran (Tafseer) the term charged with authority is referred to as leaders of army troops. In another meaning, it is taken as the scholars. There is a probability that the Ayah applies for both meanings.
In a hadeeth narrated by Abi Horaira and reported by Muslim and Bukhary that the Messenger of Allah (PAPBUH) said:” One who obeys me then he obeyed Allah, and one who disobeys me then he disobeyed Allah. One who obeys the Amir (one charged with authority) then he obeyed me and one who disobeys the Amir disobeyed me”

[4]Muslimah General: The "Beast" {Dabbatul Arad}
The "Beast" {Dabbatul Arad} in the Quran and the Sunnah,that is to appear
It has been mentioned in the Authentic Sayings of the Prophet, that a time will come when Jesus will descend back on Earth. He will slay the Jewish Anti Christ [ Ad-Dajjal], break the cross, kill the swine and will make Islam prevailant over the entire Earth in so much that there wont be a house where Islam did not enter willingly or unwillingly. His time will witness the destruction of Gog and Magog [Yahjuj wal Majjuj], and the bestowment of unprecedented blessings upon the Earth in so much that everyone will live with peace, material comfort and under justice. Jesus[as] will perform Hajj and after staying on Earth for 40 years, he will pass away and will be buried next to the Prophet, Abu Bakr and Umar in Madinah. After his death many people will revert back to their old religions . Corruption, vice, immorality will once again become dominant. Before the emergence of the wind from the lands of Syria and Yemen, that would take away the soul of every believer, great events will take place on Earth that will indicate that the Day of Judgement is knocking at the door. Of these great Events one will be the emergence of the Beast:
1) The Beast As Mentioned in the Quran:
Allah [swt] says in the Quran:
وَإِذَا وَقَعَ الْقَوْلُ عَلَيْهِم أَخْرَجْنَا لَهُمْ دَآبَّةً مِّنَ الاٌّرْضِ تُكَلِّمُهُمْ
أَنَّ النَّاسَ كَانُوا بِـَايَـتِنَا لاَ يُوقِنُونَ "And when the Word is fulfilled against them (the unjust), We shall produce from the earth a Beast to (face) them: it will speak to them,'"
(al-Naml 27.82)
