Who is to be Blamed?

USA and its allies today are infuriated as well as puzzled at the
tantrum thrown at them by the muslim world. With their embassies
burning and their officials getting killed, they now find themselves
in some spot of bother. The muslim ummah has stood rock solid against
the blasphemy of the beloved prophet pbuh. Muslims have taken their
anger onto the streets and many have taken it onto the virtual world
of social networking websites. Everyone is infuriated by the act of
some stupid hell bound people that ventured to materialize and film
such a diabolical idea.
"How can USA support them?", "How dare can they do this?" Are the
common queries that one confronts in the protests of real or virtual
world. And yes the support that the filmmaker got is a matter of
concern in the first place.
But all these protests and ruckus makes one to laugh at such a
dilapidated muslim condition, everyone is concerned with the behavior
that these non muslims are showing toward the beloved prophet pbuh but
if only we introspect ourself, we are the larger criminals!
Allah and his prophet pbuh are little concerned at the courtesy shown
by the non muslims what Allah wishes is the devotion and closeness of
his muslim slave which the latter was entitled only during the holy
month of ramadan!? How many masjids arefilled to their fullest today?
The answer is none! Yes, go to your nearest masjid and seek it for
yourself. How many muslims are holding tightly to the sunnah of our
beloved prophet pbuh?, how many of us busy ourselves in reading the
quran same way as we used to do during the holy month?
These attacks on islam are just mirrors shown by the almighty to
reflect how muslim we are?
And apart from this, the stature ofthe dust that was blown by the
horse of some wali (ra) is far superior than what a human mind can
malign it. When this is the stature of the dust blown from a wali,
just imagine what thestature of wali himself would be like! No you
can't imagine it. Then how can one imagine about the stature of the
sahaba (ra) and tell me how can anyone know the stature of our beloved
prophet pbuh whose stature and magnificence is known by the Allah
alone.
These anti-islam movies don't hurt beloved prophet pbuh but our
attitude towards his teachings do!

Three tips for the last ten nights of Ramazan ul Mubarak:

1- Divide your worship over the 10 nights. For example if you're going
to donate 100 dollars in thelast ten nights. Each night give 10
dollars so that you're guaranteed to catch laylatul qadr. Do the
samething with your salah. Make sure you're praying a certain amount
each not so you don't miss it.

2- Have your list of duas ready to go. Especially this dua' that was
taught to Aisha (RA) by the Prophet (SAW): "Allahumma innaka `afuwwun
tuhibbul `afwa fa`fu `annee" . "O Allah, You are pardoning and You
love to pardon, so pardon me."

3- Try to make 'itikaaf (seclusion) in the masjid. Even if you can't
do the whole 10 nights do 1 night. If you can't do 1 do part of 1. If
you can't do any at all then be the support system of someone that is.
Providing food for them. Checking in on them. Conversing with them and
making the feel enthusiastic and motivated.

Islamic way of Giving and Getting your wife`s love. Read on :

1. Make her feel secure; (sakina- tranquillity) QUIT BEING AGGRESSIVE

2. When you go home say 'Assalamualaikum. ' (Greetings) It kicks the
shaitaan out of your home!

3. Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) described the wife as a
fragile vessel and said to take careof this vessel that's fragile.
Remember that there is goodnessin this vessel so treat it gently.

4. When you advise her, do so in privacy, in a peaceful environment.
NOT IN PUBLIC as it's a type of slandering.

5. Be generous to your wife- it keeps her LOVED

6. Move and let her have your seat.It will warm her heart.

7. AVIOD ANGER. HOW? Keep your wudu at all times. Prophet sallallahu
alaihi wa sallam said if you are angry, sit down, if you're sitting,
then lie down. Follow the sunnah!

8. Look good and smell great for your wife. IT keeps the LOVE!

9. Don't be rigid. It will break you. Prophet Mohammed – sallallahu
alaihi wa sallam (SAW means "May the blessings and the peace of Allah
be upon him" said 'I am the best amongst you and I am the best to my
wife'. Being rigid and harsh will not bring you close to Allah and
neither does it make you more of a man.

10. Listen to your wife-BE a GOOD LISTENER

11. YES to flattering NO to arguing.Arguing is like poison in a marriage.

12. Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam said to call your wives with
the best name, any name she loves to hear. Prophet Mohammed sallallahu
alaihi wa sallam called Aisha 'ya Aish' as an endearment.

13. Give her a pleasant surprise. I.e. if she loves watermelon, bring
her one out of the blue. It will grow the love in her heart.

14. Preserve your tongue! Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam said the
tongue will throw people in the hell fire so watch what you say and
how you say it!

15. All of us have shortcoming. Accept her shortcoming and Allah (swt)
will put barakat in your marriage.

16. TELL her you appreciate her. SHOW her you appreciate her.

17. Encourage her to keep good relation with her relative, her mum and dad etc.

18. Speak with her with a topic of HER interest.

19. In front of her relative praise her. Confirm/ realize that she is
wonderful, and that she is a good person in front of her family.

20. Give each other gifts. You will love each other more. Prophet
sallallahu alaihi wa sallam said gifts increases love.

21. Get rid of the routine once in awhile, surprise her with
something, it will get rid of the rust and polish it!

22. Husn e zan- We have a demand from Allah (swt) that we have to
think good of people. Think good of your spouse.

23. Ignore some of her mistakes- pretend you did not see/hear some of
her small mistakes. It wasa practice of Ali (RA). It's like putting a
hole in your memory. Don't save it in your memory!

24. Increase the drops of patience, especially when she is pregnant or
when she is on her monthly period.

25. Expect and respect her jealousy. Even Aisha (ra) used to get jealous.

26. Be humble. If your profession is good, respect that she is looking
after your children, she is much more than you, she is the leader at
home, her strength is your strength, and her success is your success.

27. Don't put your friends above your wife.

28. Help your wife at home. Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam used
to help his wives at home and he was the best of creation. He used to
sew his own clothes.

29. Help her respect your parents, you can't force her to love them,
but she can be helped to gradually love them.

30. Show your wife she is the ideal wife.

31. Remember your wife in your duaas. It will increase the love andprotect it.

32. Leave the past. It brings nothing but pain and grief. It's not
your business. The past is for Allah (swt).

33. Don't try to show her that you are doing her a favour by doing
something, like buying food for the house, because in reality we are
the courier of sustenance, not the providers, as Allah is the
provider. It's also a way of being humble and thankful to Allah (swt)

34. Shaitaan is your enemy, not your wife. Sometime when husband and
wife are talking a fight breaks out, then shaitaan is present there as
a third person sohe is the real enemy. It is not enough to hate the
shaitaan, but you have to see him as an enemy as Allah has commanded.
Shaitaanloves divorce. HE comes everyday and sits office and asks the
devils what they have done, some say i have made a person steal, or i
have made someone drink etc. And one devil will say i have made a man
divorce his wife, and he is crowned as the one who has done the best
job.

35. Take the food and put it in hermouth. Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa
sallam taught us this. It's a blessing. The food doesn't just go to
her stomach, but straight to her heart. It increases the love and
mercy between you.

36. Have mercy on her weakness. Have mercy when she is weak or strong
as she is the fragile vessel. Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam said
that your wife is a trust in your hand.

Islamic rulings on the various ways of Beautification for Women:

Beautification and embellishment of own self is a natural right of a woman. Every single female wants herself to be good looking. Islam being a humane nature religion, never opposes it. But it only declares some procedures and boundaries. Islam is the complete code of life, so it never misses a slightest point. I have tried to list the basic Islamic rulings on some procedures and new ways of beautification which are in use among women. These basic rules are to be kept in mind, and are common in every type of beautification.

EXHIBITING BEAUTY TO OTHER THAN MEHARAMS IS HARAAM:

All Women other than the western minded have the natural feeling inside to be hidden and safe.Keeping this in mind, Islam restricts the display of the beauty and body only to one man who is her loyal life partner. That is why Allah Swt declared obligation of Hijab and Pardah for every woman. This restriction also includes the use of perfumes infront non-meharams and in public places. It has been Stated in  Hadees: The woman who comes out wearing perfume and passes by the people who smell it, this sin will be regarded as the sin of adultery.(Interpreted,Musnad Ahmad) So women should refrain from these types of sins to please Allah swt.

COPYING MEN IN ANY ASPECT IS HARAAM:

Yes, it is strictly prohibited and a major sin to copy and imitate men in any form. A big warning has been stated in Ahadees regarding those women who copy men in their dressings and costumes.Which includes the different ways of designing too. So wearing men alike clothes, trimming the hair like men or any way that has a masculine feature in it, is Haraam and a sin according to the Islamic rulings.

CHANGING AND ALTERING THE NATURAL APPEARANCE OF PARTS OF BODY IS HARAAM:

Allah swt has created humans in the best form, the shape of eyes, feet, ears and hairs etc. is best formulated and designed by the creator, so making a change in them is considered haraam in Islamic Shariah. The gaping and sharpening of teeth, using of wigs and shaping and designing of eyebrows is prohibited in Islam. 90% of the muslim girls are drowned in these sins especially the third one, shaping of eyebrows. May Allah help to refrain from those sins.

USING OF HARAAM COSMETICS:

The cosmetics which contain haraam formulations such as Alcohol and pig fat are prohibited. All our prayers and salaah become void while wearing these types of make ups and cosmetics.Deodorants, perfumes, Alcoholic creams and lotions are good examples.

USING OF MAKE UPS WHICH HINDER THE REACH OF WATER TO SKIN IS NOT JAIZ.

Some cosmetics stop water to reach the skin. When water doesn't reach to the skin during Ghusul and Wadhu none of our prayers are considered to be valid, until we remove them and repeat thd wadhu or ghusul.

These are the major rulings on this topic.The use of ornaments, mehndi and henna, Islamic cosmetics, creams and lotions just to show the beauty to the meharams or husband is not only allowed but one of silently done good deeds.

(Fatwaas from the book Halal o Haram)

Islam answering every question.(Continued Post)

When I googled about these philosophical questions,I found people
juggling around,and trying to answer the so called toughest questions
in their own way.I listed them and found all the answers already
present in the Quran and Hadees.

1.Who am I ?
You are not what you think,your name is not your real identity,your
body is not yours.You are one of the other numerous creatures having
soul inside,but you have a greater status than them,not because you
can think and talk but because the creator made you in the best form.
"And he created man in the best form"(Surah Teen)
So you are not like other million creatures eating to live and living
to eat.Allah named you 'Insaan' (As the quran states).You are the best
creation of the lord.You are a 'Abd' (Servant of Allah the creator).

2.Why was I created ?
When a creator designs and creates something he has defined purpose
for that,If a creation is purpose less than its system could not be
perfect.But the Human system has the best thought perfection.The whole
body is well designed,well created.
"And I created the Humans and Jinns only for my worship"(
We are created to worship,to bow before Allah swt and no one else.This
was the purpose of your creation.

3.Why were Life and Death created ?
We are living between these two,the only way to enter this world is
the from the mother's womb and the only road which exits you is the
death.
"We created life and death to examine who does the best deeds"
We are in the examination hall every deed of ours is being
examined.When the death knocks,all papers will get collected and we
will head towards the results.

4.What will happen after I die ?
No one other than the dead can answer this,but Alas! they are dumb.You
need a answer from the creator of death and after.
The Quran gives full details about the happenings of after death,The
'Hashr' (Gathering),the 'Pul e Saraat',The Hisab,The Jannah and
Jahannam.

5.What is Good and Evil ?
Good is not what people have made and thought to be good,but good is
what pleases your Lord,what gives eternal peace,what Allah has chosen
to be good.And Evil is what pleases Shaitan,what angers your lord,what
has the Jahannam as its home.

6.What is success ?
Different people define it according to their targets.A student
defines it to pass and top.A businessman defines it as profit and so
on.But the Quran declares a universal law:
"Whoever is removed away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise, he
indeed is successful".

These were some big questions which i came across.If you know or have
some other same topic queries,feel free to ask as in comments,or mail
me at inside.everystuff@gmail.com

Does Islam answer all the Big Philosophical questions about everything ? Find Out:

From the time when this human race came to existence,this small and
limited human mind constructed many questions inside,many creative
thinkers and philosophers always had a curious want in their minds to
deep think over the unsolved questions of life,society,nature,death
and the happenings of after death.Although their hard work on this
matter generated some answers,but they had a level of incorrection in
them.No answer was upto the level where all the curiousness would come
to an end.They answered but still they themselves needed a proper
answer.This was because they had a limited amount of knowledge over
the subject.And to the questions regarding after life no one answered
even one right answer,as no dead would help them out!!.So these
questions remained the same questions.The correct answers could only
come from the creator of these questions Allah swt the Allam ul
Guyub,he only knew Why have we been created ?,What is Life ?,What is
death ? etc.,but to answer all these big questions which also had born
inside the brains of his creation 'Humans',he sent the Prophets (A.S)
to the earth.He gave them all the treasures of knowldges,although they
were humans like us but they were chosen by the lord.And in the end
Allah swt did send Muhammad (S.A.W) the seal of all Prophets and
deens.So the answers to what the so called deep thinkers is only in
the deen Islam and nowhere.The Quran is the treasure of all universal
knowldges.Islam is the only way of compltete humanic life.If you too
are thinking over these questions,Islam Has The Answer.I searched the
net and found some questions which the modern philosophers are
discussing about,but they don't know that islam and deen have already
answered them.I will list these questions and try to answer them in
the Light of Quran and Hadees.So be ready to know.
(I will post them in my another post today inshallah).

Find out the Ruling of Islamic Shariah on Online Text Chat and (Yahoo! Chat,MSN,Google Talk etc.) ?

The human life has changed a lot,gone are the times when our lovely
ancestors used low costed letters to communicate between them.Today we
use emails etc. in the place of these letters.Although these changes
have benefitted us a lot,but muslims are those who practice Islam in
every field of their life.And this is a accepted reality that every
new stuff has its pro and cons in the islamic aspect.Be it the new
mobiles,internet etc. they can be used both rightly or against islam
too.

ISLAMIC RULING ON ONLINE TEXT CHAT:

This is the most common type of chat used online.People enter 'Rooms'
to chat with others.According to the Fatwas issued on this matter,It
is Haraam to chat with a 'non mehram' opposite sex on any type of this
online chat.The Chat Rooms are virtual types of rooms that exist on
the net,but they come under the same definition as of the real rooms
i.e they are both closed places away from others.So chatting inside
these virtual rooms is same as sitting inside a real room an
talking.The prohibition of two opposite sexes to stay alone in a room
or house has been repoted from the Ahadees.That means if a boy(s)
chats with other girl(s) in a open or private chat room it is just
like the accomodation of two lone sexes inside a real room.As the
hadith states the third person with them is the Shaitan.So the chat
with opposite sex non-mehram is a great sin and is haraam,even if the
topic between them is Islamic,clean and non sexual.Haraam is haraam a
it cant be reconstructed into halal by these lame exuses.

BUT,
A chat between same sexes or 'meharam opposite sexes' (mother and
son,father and daughter,brother and sister etc.) only on Islamic or
non sexual clean topics such as business,life,technology,current
affairs,arts etc. is jaiz and halal.If the topics and the
conversations between them are un-islamic,sexual and benefit less then
the chat between them is again na-jaiz and prohibited.Although there
are numerous topics to be discussed upon,but still you will find 80%
of the chat rooms full of those mindless users who don't chat about
other than sex and ridiculous things.So,staying away from these pots
is better than stucking your foot and falling in the hands of
Shaitan.And remember these rulings are a matter of delight for the
believers and true muslims.Those who hate to follow them really need
some serious thinking to strengthn their faith.

USING OF EMOTICONS:
If the simelys and emoticons depict a face,then using them is not
jaiz,You could use those which don't depict a face.

(Fatwaas from Darul Ifta and Mufti Emrahim Desai)
