:: Sis Sofia's experiences with 'unseen' ::

Assalam Alaikum,

A highly recommended video to watch!

Sis Sofia talked about her experiences with the jinns... Jinns in human form, in animal form... Some in places of worships, funerals.. and even Jinns doing salat!

Narrated 'Aisha: Some people asked Allah's Apostle about the fore-tellers He said. ' They are nothing" They said, 'O Allah's Apostle! Sometimes they tell us of a thing which turns out to be true." Allah's Apostle said, "A jinn snatches that true word and pours it Into the ear of his friend (the fore-teller) (as one puts something into a bottle) The foreteller then mixes with that word one hundred lies."
(Sahih Bukhari Book #71, Hadith #657)

I have only created jinns and men, that they may serve Me.

( سورة الذاريات , Adh-Dhariyat, Chapter #51, Verse #56)

Allahu Akhbar!

:: Thy Guardian-Lord hath not forsaken thee ::

By the Glorious Morning Light,

And by the Night when it is still,-

Thy Guardian-Lord hath not forsaken thee, nor is He displeased.

And verily the Hereafter will be better for thee than the present.

And soon will thy Guardian-Lord give thee (that wherewith) thou shalt be well-pleased.

Did He not find thee an orphan and give thee shelter (and care)?

And He found thee wandering, and He gave thee guidance.

And He found thee in need, and made thee independent.

Therefore, treat not the orphan with harshness,

Nor repulse the petitioner (unheard);

But the bounty of the Lord - rehearse and proclaim!

( سورة الضحى , Ad-Dhuha, Chapter #93)

:: Never give up Hope ::

Assalam Alaikum,

A short lecture on hope which gives an individual an enormous amount of strength~ Shaykh Abdul Nasir Jangda also provides some examples of how one should not give up hope, especially towards other people, for we do not know their life journey and only Allah, Subhana Wa Ta'ala, knows~

Personally, I believe in the power of the word 'Insha'Allah'~ There's also a great amount of hope in this word... To live in hope and placing high hopes, is to believe in the power of Allah, Subhana Wa Ta'ala, superseding all other creations~

Enjoy!

:: Umrah understood ::

:: 中国穆斯林 Muslims in China ::

:: Funeral rituals ::

Assalam Alaikum,

This was a discussion about the process of funeral in various traditions; such as in Islam, people in laos, Qinghai, India, Eskimos, the vikings. 

In the beginning of the video, Ustaz Ishaq Ma, from the Taipei Mosque, led the discussion by explaining the islamic funeral rituals and its meaning behind. Others started sharing what they observed while they were on holidays abroad.

Towards the end, Mr. Zhou gave further explanation and in the time 13:20, he spoke out for Islam being interpreted by the American media as the media is controlled by the 'jews'...

May Allah subhana wa ta'ala, gives him hidayat~ Ameen~

Enjoy the video!

:: Allah will provide ::

:: The Reality of a Man ::

Assalam Alaikum,

What is the reason behind why we arrive this Earth as a helpless baby, then we are fed to be strong, and eventually back to be helpless old person? In the state that we are strong, we have forgotten that we were once helpless and eventually return to being helpless... 

Not everyone will be a rich man, not everyone will be a powerful man but one thing for sure, everyone arrives on this Earth with no money/power and will depart with no money/power~ 

So, what is the real purpose of all the time on this Earth when eventually we come to the same original spot of being helpless?

Something to ponder about~

:: Abdurraheem Green's dad's Shahadah ::

Assalam Alaikum,

For the last 20 years, Abdurraheem Green's father rejected his invitation to Islam... In September 2011, his father passes away... 

10 days before he died, something remarkable happened... Abdurraheem Green speaks about the process of inviting his dad into Islam~

It's for us to share the beauty, Allah, Subhana'Allah Wa Ta'ala, to guide~ Don't give up on giving the message, Someday somehow, Allah swt guides them back~

May Allah, Subhana'Allah Wa Ta'ala,  gives us the last breath to say the shahadah on our death bed~ Ameen!

:: Where's the fear? ::

Where's the Fear?

O children of the book have you forgotten your agreement

Your covenant with your Lord, you're resembling the heathens

Where is your fear? Because clearly no one can see it,

And it's not a matter of just wanting my friends; you must want to need it

You God worshipping, devil hating, creations

Haitians, Asians, brown skinned, Caucasian

Arab-African, son or daughter of a son and a daughter,

Mostly made from water, tell me where is your fear?

Surely God has made his message easy for remembrance,

But is there anyone of you that will actually remember?

Despite your gender, age, colour or class

Those who fight fire with fire usually end up with ash

You're young and dumb and dumb because you're young

Not ready for commitment, you just wanna have fun

Insh'Allah you say, you'll change your ways one day

The only problem is, we're supposed to praise like we have no more days

You who came from this faith, you who pray every other day

You part time Muslims, working for minimum wage

Masha'Allah you are very brave, have you no fear?

You say Iman is in your heart, but is your heart sincere?

What if you were a hypocrite and didn't even know it?

Scared of being scared so your pride won't let you show it

Your friends think it's funny that your sisters wear a hijab

Or that for a month every year you decide to fast

Halas, you just wanna blend in, so you decide to hang out

Accustom to sin, like the dessert is to draughts

But you shouldn't be scared of what your friends might say

You should be scared to death of the Judgment day

So lose those friends, like fools do their wealth,

Cause you hang with 9 idiots, you're probably the 10th

We plot and dream about things that don't count

As if money and fame mean anything in the next life

It's a shame we can't come through on the things we claim

Guard your tongue from praise as you have guarded it from blame

To whom is your fear aimed? You wouldn't disrespect your mother

But yet you would disrespect the actual creator of all things?

So who do you choose to fear? Who deserves your nerves?

Don't curve your words, for Allah has already heard,

All your truths, your secrets worst dreams,

Surely the creator of all, sees and knows all things

So who are you lying to except yourself?

A Branch from a dead tree, please release yourself

Troubled teens; ask your Lord to guide you to the dean

Iyyāka na'budu wa iyyāka nasta'īn

You alone we worship, and You alone we ask for help

Ya Allah please have mercy on those who do not have mercy on themselves

This country of Kaffir, makes our faith that much harder

So please forgive our parents for their failing sons and daughters

I am your martyr, so please bring me to your safety

I'm black and Muslim, everywhere I go someone hates me

So please protect me and the rest of this ummah

Provide us with fear, allow us to live sunnah

The way of the Rasoul, sallallahou alayhi wasallam

The way of your messenger, May peace be upon him

Help us to practice the words of your holy text,

Because who cares about this life, I'm worried about the next

So don't let them get you down, ask Allah for some better days

Because when the world pushes you to your knees,

You are in the perfect position to pray.
