			<description><![CDATA[When hardships intensify, it often signals their impending end. Difficulties are followed by ease, and those who hold fast to faith in God find relief swiftly because relief is in God's hands alone. History and life are filled with stories of adversity giving way to ease, whether for prophets or righteous individuals. While hardships can last for extended periods, the eventual relief compensates for the moments of sorrow and distress.<br />
<br />
Stories of the Prophets on Relief After Hardship<br />
<br />
The prophets faced severe trials with patience and faith, and relief came to them from God. Here are some stories illustrating this:<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">- Prophet Jacob (Yaqub)</span><br />
  Jacob faced the trial of losing his son, Joseph (Yusuf), for many years. His grief led him to lose his sight from excessive weeping. Eventually, God restored both his son and his sight, bringing relief when all hope seemed lost.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">- Prophet Job (Ayub)</span><br />
  Job was tested with severe illness and the loss of all his children. His situation became so dire that his wife sold her hair to feed them. Job called upon God, and God responded, restoring his health and blessing him with more children and wealth than he had lost.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">- Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)</span><br />
  The Prophet Muhammad endured significant hardship in his mission. He was besieged in the Valley of Abu Talib for three years, during which he and his followers survived on leaves and animal hides due to the oppression by Quraysh. Relief came when a termite ate the oppressive agreement against them. During the Battle of the Trench, various tribes allied against him, causing fear and hardship for the Muslims. Yet, God sent a strong wind that scattered the enemies' camps, bringing relief to the believers.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Stories of the Righteous on Relief After Hardship</span><br />
<br />
Many righteous individuals turned to God in their distress and received relief:<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">- Imam Bukhari</span><br />
  Imam Bukhari, famous for compiling the authentic sayings of the Prophet, lost his sight in childhood. His mother, in her grief, prayed fervently for his sight to be restored. One night, she dreamt of Prophet Abraham (Ibrahim) telling her that her son's sight would be returned due to her prayers. The next morning, his sight was restored by God's grace.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">- Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal</span><br />
  During the ordeal of the "createdness" of the Quran, Imam Ahmad refused to say that the Quran was created, as it is God's word. He endured severe torture for his stance. Despite attempts to coerce him, he remained steadfast. When tensions rose against the Caliph in Tartus, the Caliph planned to kill Imam Ahmad. However, while Ahmad prayed not to meet the Caliph, the Caliph died suddenly, granting Ahmad relief.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Your Way to Islam </span><br />
Authored by: Dr. Mohammad Suleiman Al-Ashqar  <br />
Translated into English by: Dr. Abdul-Waris Saeed  <br />
Revised Edition with Additions 1415  <br />
J. D. C. Series on Islam No. 11<br />
<br />
 <br />
Introduction<br />
<br />
This book serves as a valuable resource for new Muslims and those interested in learning more about Islam. Written by the esteemed scholar Dr. Mohammad Suleiman Al-Ashqar and translated by Dr. Abdul-Waris Saeed, it provides a comprehensive introduction to the fundamental beliefs and practices of Islam.<br />
<br />
 <br />
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful  <br />
<br />
“O you people, adore your Lord who created you and those who came before you, that you may have the chance to be righteous.” (Qur’an 2:21)<br />
<br />
 <br />
Overview<br />
<br />
"Your Way to Islam" is an invitation to everyone to join the faithful in their journey toward Allah's blessings. As the Qur’an states: <br />
<br />
“Those who obey Allah and His Messenger are in the Company of those who are blessed by Allah, The Prophets, The Sincere (faithful), the Witnesses (Martyrs), and the Righteous (who do good), and what a beautiful fellowship!” (Qur’an 4:69).<br />
<br />
Chapter 1: Preface<br />
<br />
Reflect on everything around you on Earth: the objects, plants, insects, animals, birds, and fish. Observe how they all have precise systems that govern and guide their existence. Look above you at the sun, moon, planets, stars, clouds, and winds, all functioning accurately and serving life on Earth.<br />
<br />
Consider yourself, your organs, and your intricate body systems working together to ensure your well-being. Who created all these marvelous things and established their precise systems? The Creator and Sustainer of all these creatures is One: Allah, the only true God. <br />
<br />
It is logical to acknowledge this fact, recognize our Creator and Provider, be grateful to Him, and submit ourselves to His wise and merciful guidance. Our Creator has endowed us with intellect to understand and the freedom to choose the right path.<br />
<br />
Allah has shown us the right path through His messengers, with the final messenger being Muhammad and His Books, culminating in the Qur’an. We have two choices before us: one leading to bliss in this life and the Hereafter—Islam, and the other leading to misery in this world and eternal punishment in the Hereafter. The choice is ours. May Allah guide us to the Right Path! Aameen.<br />

   In ayat 8 of Surat Tahreem of the Holy Qur'an (66:8), Allah Ta'ala says:--<br />
<br />
           <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">''O you who believe, truly turn to Allah with sincere repentance</span><br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">           [Taubatun Nasooha]: in the hope that your Lord will remove from you your ills..''</span><br />
<br />
What is sincere repentance?  Sayyadi Abdullah Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, said that sincere repentance means that a person's heart is ashamed, his tongue seeks forgiveness and he resolves never to repeat the sin he or she committed.<br />
<br />
 And a certain wise man has mentioned that Allah's acceptance of Tauba (Repentance) can be recognized by 4 signs as follows:--<br />
<br />
 (1) A person guards his tongue from futile talk, lying and backbiting.<br />
<br />
 (2) He habours no jealousy or enmity for anyone.<br />
<br />
(3) He forsakes evil company.<br />
<br />
(4) He prepares for death, is always remorseful, always repenting and always obedient to Allah's Orders.<br />
<br />

  Just as when a piece of iron when exposed and immersed in tremendous heat of fire annihilates its own identity and become lost in the color and quality of fire, similarly the Noble Messenger of Allah, Prophet Muhammad, <span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i">Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, </span>lost his own self-hood in the fire of Divine Love, and attained his highest degree of Khilafat or ambassador and thus through him, the Attributes of Allah Ta'ala were made manifest.<br />
<br />
 Thus his seeing, hearing, and speaking is/are that of the Divine's. That is why Allah, <span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i">Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, </span>says about the Prophet:--<br />
<br />
     <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">''You did not slay them, but Allah slayed them; and in no way did you</span><br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">       throw when you threw, but Allah threw.''  </span>(8:17)<br />
<br />
      <span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i"><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">"The Prophet doesn't speak out of his own volition, his speech is</span></span><br />
<span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i"><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">        revelation revealed.'' </span></span>(53:3)<br />
<br />
Through the Prophet, alaihi salaat was-salaam, Allah's Beautiful Names and Attributes were manifested fully, that is why following the Prophet is made equivalent of following Allah, where the Qur'an declares:--<br />
<br />
       <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b"><span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i">''He who obeys the Messenger has obeyed Allah.'' </span></span>(4:80)<br />
<br />
Also. by the bestowal of Almighty Allah, the Prophet, <span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i">Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, </span>had within himself manifest the Divine Attributes which are supernatural from ordinary human standard... for example, he said:--<br />
<br />
      ''Allah has folded the entire earth in front of me. So I can simultaneously observe everything<br />
       from its east to its west.''  (Sahih Muslim) and..<br />
<br />
      ''Allah has placed this worldly manifestation in such a mysterious way in front of my eyes that<br />
       whatever will be created until the Day of Judgement, I can see as if they are right on top of my palm.'' (Tabarani)<br />
<br />
From this, we deduce that from the subtlety of his <span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i"><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">haqiqat, </span></span>space and time boundaries are made null and void... everything is made present simultaneously. Allah's mystical manifestation (Tajalli) to His Prophet was in his power of <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">hearing and seeing. </span>That is why he said: <span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i"><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">''I can see what you cannot see, I can hear what you cannot hear.''  </span></span>(Ahmad and Tirmidhi).]]></description>

<br />
1. Sleeping on Wudoo'. The Prophet, sallallahu 'alayhi wa salam told al-Baraa' bin ’Aazib, radiallahu 'anh, If you go to your bed, then do your wudoo' (ablution) as you would do it for prayer, then lie on your right" [Agreed upon, No. 6311.]<br />
<br />
2. Reading Soorat al-Ikhlaas, al-Falaq and an-Naas before sleeping: From 'Aishah<br />
radiallahu 'anha, the Messenger, sallallahu 'alayhi wa salam used to recite "Qul huwallahu ahad", "Qul a'oothu birrabilfalaq" and "Qul a'oothu birrabinnaas" every night when he went to sleep, then wiped his face and whatever he was able from his body, beginning with his head and face, and what faces him from his body, three times". [al-Bukhaari: 5017]<br />
<br />
3. Doing takbeer and tasbeeh when going to sleep: 'AN, radiallahu 'anh narrates that the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu 'alayhi wa salam said when Faatimah asked him for a servant, "Shall I not lead you to that which is better for you than a servant? If you go to your mattresses, or rest to sleep, then say Allahu Akbarth\rtj-four times, and say subhaan Allah thirty-three times, and say alhamdulilah thirty-three times, for they are better for you than having a servant" [Agreed upon: 6318 8i 6915]<br />
<br />
4. Supplicating when awoken from sleep: 'Ubaadah bin as-Saamit, radiallahu 'anh narrates that the Prophet, sallallahu 'alayhi wa salam said: "Anyone awoken in the night and says: Laa Haha ilia Allah, wahdatu laa shareeka lah, lahul-mulku walahul hamd, wa huwa 'ala kulli shay 'in qadeer, alhamdulilah was-subhaan Allah, wallahu akbar, wa laa hawla wa laa quwata ilia billah, then said, Allahumma aghfirli or invoked Allah, he will be answered, and if he does ablution and prays, his prayer will be accepted" [al-Bukhaari: 1154]<br />
<br />
5. Supplicating once awake with the following supplication: Alhamdulilah alathee ahyaanaa ba'da maa amatana, wa Hayhin-nushoor (Praise be to Allah Who granted us life after death, and to Flim we will be ressurected) [al-Bukhaari, 6312, from Fluthayfah bin al-Yamaan, radiallahu 'anh\]]></description>
