PALESTINE (AL- AQSA): TOMORROW WILL BE FREE. 3 OF 5

Finally, although the Muslims around the world nowadays are in a position of weakness and humiliation – because they have turned away from the pristine Islam – and are unable to fight the Jews, take back their stolen lands and impose the rule of Islamic sharee’ah in Palestine, this does not mean that this will always be the case until the end of the world. Things have to change, and one of the indications of this is the hadeeth of the Prophet, who informed us of some things that are to happen in the future. He was supported by Revelation from his Lord; he did not speak of his own whims and desires, but of that which was revealed to him. He said: “You will fight the Jews and will prevail over them, so that a rock will say, ‘O Muslim! There is Jew behind me, kill him!’” (Bukhaari).

“By the star when it descends, Your companion [Muhammad] has not strayed, nor has he erred, Nor does he speak from [his own] inclination, It is not but a revelation revealed, Taught to him by one intense in strength (Angel jibril) – One of soundness. And he rose to [his] true form. Q 53: 1-6

THE IMPORTANCE & VIRTUES OF BAYT AL-MAQDIS (JERUSALEM) ARE MANY:

BLESSED: “Glorified (and Exalted) be He (Allaah) Who took His slave (Muhammad) for a journey by night from Al-Masjid Al-Haraam (at Makkah) to Al-Masjid Al-Aqsaa (in Jerusalem), the neighbourhood whereof We have blessed…” [al-Israa’ 17:1]. Al-Quds is part of the neighbourhood surrounding the mosque and hence it is blessed. “[Moosa said:] O my people! Enter the holy land (Palestine) which Allaah has assigned to you…” [5:21]
The Messenger said: One prayer in my mosque is better than four prayers there, but it is still a good place of prayer. Soon there will come a time when if a man has a spot of land as big as his horse’s rope from which he can see Bayt al-Maqdis, that will be better for him than the whole world. (al-Silsilah al-Saheehah, at the end of the discussion of hadeeth no. 2902).
One prayer in al-Masjid al-Nabawi is equivalent to 1000 prayers elsewhere, so one prayer in al-Masjid al-Aqsaa is equivalent to 250 prayers elsewhere.
The one-eyed Dajjaal (“Antichrist”) will not enter it, because of the hadeeth, “He will prevail over all the earth, apart from al-Haram [in Makkah] and Bayt al-Maqdis.” (Ahmad, saheeh).
The Dajjaal will be killed close to al-Quds. He will be killed by the Messiah ‘Eesa ibn Maryam (alehim salam), as was stated in the hadeeth: “The son of Maryam will kill the Dajjaal at the gates of Ludd.” (Muslim). Ludd (Lod) is a place near Bayt al-Maqdis.
It (al-Quds) was the first qiblah of the Muslims, as was reported by al-Baraa’: the Messenger of Allaah (saw) prayed in the direction of Bayt al-Maqdis for sixteen or seventeen months. (Bukhaari, Muslim).
It is the place where Wahy (Revelation) came down, and it is the homeland of the Prophets. This is well known. It is one of the mosques to which people may travel. Abu Hurayrah (ra) reported that the Prophet said: “No journey should be made except to three mosques, al-Masjid al-Haraam, Masjid al-Rasool & Masjid al-Aqsaa.” (Bukhaari,Muslim). It is not permissible to travel to any spot on earth for the purpose of worshipping there, except these three mosques. The journeys made by misguided people shias to Karbala, Sufis to Ajmeer shareef is kufr.
The Messenger (saw) led the Prophets in one prayer in al-Aqsaa, in the lengthy hadeeth: “… Then the time for prayer came, and I led them in prayer.”( Muslim).

The fact that Ya’qoob (alehim salaam) built al-Masjid al-Aqsaa does not mean that the Jews have more right to the mosque than the Muslims, because Ya’qoob was a monotheist and the Jews are mushrikeen. He built it for all the true worshippers of Allah. The fact that their father Ya’qoob built the mosque does not mean that it belongs to them. He built it for the monotheists to worship in it, even if they were not his children, and he did not allow the mushrikeen to enter it, even if they were his children, because the call of the Prophets has nothing to do with race; it is based on taqwaa (piety, awareness of Allaah). Just like Ibrahim built the Kaabah for the entire mankind who are true monotheists irrespective of racial or other differences.

The Prophet led the previous Prophets in prayer to signify the unity of the message and all divine revelations is correct from the point of view of the origin of the religion and ‘aqeedah (belief) of the Prophets. All of the Prophets received their Message from one source, which was the Wahy (Revelation), and they all had the same ‘aqeedah, which was the belief in Tawheed (absolute unity of Allaah) and the worship of Allaah Alone, even though there were differences in the details of their laws. This was confirmed by our Prophet when he said: “I am the closest of mankind to ‘Eesaa ibn Maryam in this world and in the Hereafter. The Prophets are brothers although they have different mothers, and their religion is one.” (Bukhaari).
The phrase “brothers although they have different mothers” means brothers who have the same father but different mothers, i.e., they are the children of co-wives.

Here we would caution readers against believing that the Jews, Christians and Muslims are following the same principles nowadays, because the Jews have changed the religion of their Prophet. Indeed, part of the religion of their Prophet is that they should follow our Prophet and not reject him, but they disbelieve in the Prophet hood of Muhammad (saw) and associate others in worship with Allah. Muhammad in the bible https://islamqa.info/en/10116.

The Jews deviated from monotheism by creating a color- biased & Racist God who they claim will only admit to paradise only people born of Jewish mothers & others will be condemned to hell however submissive to Allah & pious they may be. AMAZING

And they say, “None will enter Paradise except one who is a Jew or a Christian.” That is [merely] their wishful thinking, Say, “Produce your proof, if you should be truthful.” 2 vs 111

The Jews do not have any stake in al-Quds, because even though they may have lived in the land previously AFTER THE CANANITES that land now belongs to the Muslims from two points of view:

1. The Jews disbelieved and are no longer following the religion of the believers among the Children of Israel who followed and supported Moosa and ‘Eesaa (peace be upon them).

2. We Muslims have more right to it than them, because land does not belong to the people who lived there first, otherwise, those who lived there before the Jews e.g. the cananites etc should be called the rightful owners, but to those who establish the laws of Allaah therein. Allaah created the land, and He created people to worship Allaah in the land and to establish therein the religion, laws and rulings of Allaah. “… Verily, the earth is Allaah’s. He gives it as a heritage to whom He wills of His slaves; and the (blessed) end is for the Muttaqoon (the pious).” [7:128]

Hence if some Arabs came who were not followers of Islam and they ruled the holy land with kufr, they would have to be fought until they submit to the rule of Islam or were killed. It is not the matter of race or ethnicity; it is the matter of Tawheed & Islam.

PALESTINE (AL- AQSA): TOMORROW WILL BE FREE. 5 OF 5

HOW TO FREE PALESTINE & MASJID AL-AQSA

1- You have to make du’aa’ (supplication), and recite du’a’ al-qunoot (special supplication during formal prayers) in your salaah (prayer).

2- Collect charity and send it through trustworthy channels.

3- Support the weak and oppressed in all ways, including the media and the internet.

4- Get scholars, daa’iyahs (Islamic workers), khateebs (orators) and writers to explain the oppression that is happening and the negligence on the part of the ummah (global Muslim community), and to mobilize the ummah to defend the holy places.

5- Check on one’s own intentions with regard to fighting for the sake of Allaah, and see whether he is applying the hadeeth of the Prophet (saw): “Whoever dies without having fought for the sake of Allaah or having had the intention of doing so, has died following one of the branches of hypocrisy.” (Saheeh Muslim)

6- Pursuing all the means of building up material and moral strength, in preparation for meeting the enemy (in battle).

7- Reminding oneself and others of the virtues of martyrdom for the sake of Allaah and studying the rulings on jihad (battle for the sake of Allah), and not having an attachment to this world.

8- Doing as much damage as possible to the enemies who are in a state of war with us, by boycotting their products, attacking them with truth verbally and in writing to humiliate and annoy them, and to point out their kufr (disbelief) and shirk (polytheism), and their insults to Allaah, His Messenger and the believers, publishing as much as possible on the internet, in the audio-visual and print media about this serious topic whilst also connecting that to Islamic belief and the words of Allaah and His Messenger, and using all effective and Islamically-acceptable means of doing so.

However, these should not include activities that contradict Islam e.g. demonstrations involving women going out without proper hijab, wearing adornment and make-up; using music in the demonstration; shouting slogans that are incorrect, such as “al-Quds (Jerusalem) is Arab and will remain Arab” (in fact, al-Quds is Islamic and is not for the Arabs only); stopping the demonstration in front of a kaafir’s tomb and placing bouquets of flowers on his grave; begging the kaafirs for help by using phrases that are humiliating to the Muslims; holding up pictures or effigies of people; doing wrong to others such as blocking the road or preventing people from passing by; using slanderous and insulting words that are not permitted in sharee’ah; men and women mixing during the demonstration; imitating the kuffaar in any of their unique characteristics such as clothing or symbols that the demonstrators may wear; committing acts of aggression against the lives & properties of innocent people, such as destroying their shops or breaking their windows, or starting fires in public facilities, and other haraam actions.

We ask Allaah to rid Bayt al-Maqdis of them sooner rather than later, for He is Able to do that and He is Most Generous in answering.

We ask Allaah to hasten the Muslims’ return to their religion and to grant them the means of victory. May He grant us the joy of seeing His religion prevail and His enemies humiliated, and may He raise the status of those who are persecuted, tortured or killed for His sake. “O you who believe! If you help (in the cause of) Allaah, He will help you, and make your foothold firm”[47:7].

PALESTINE (AL- AQSA): TOMORROW WILL BE FREE. 2 OF 5

There is no doubt that the Prophet of Allaah Ibraaheem (Abraham) was a pure monotheist, and he was not among the polytheists and disbelievers. Although the Jews are among the offspring of Ibraaheem (peace be upon him), they went against his way by associating partners in worship with Allaah and claiming that ‘Uzayr (Ezra) was a “son of God.” They said that God is miserly and that His hand is “tied up”, and they said, “He is poor and we are rich.” …….They also said that when God created the heavens and the earth in six days, He got tired, so He rested on the Sabbath day……… – exalted be Allaah far above all that they say about Him. They also likened the attributes of God to human attributes (anthropomorphism) and killed the Prophets, etc.

Once this distinction and contrast is made clear, there can be no brotherhood between a monotheistic believer and a polytheistic disbeliever, as Allaah says in the Qur’aan “Indeed there has been an excellent example for you in Ibraaheem and those with him, when they said to their people, ‘Verily, we are free from you and whatever you worship besides Allaah. We have rejected you, and there has started between us and you, hostility and hatred forever, – until you believe in Allaah Alone,’ – except the saying of Ibraaheem to his father: ‘Verily, I will ask for forgiveness (from Allaah) for you, but I have no power to do anything for you before Allaah.’ Our Lord! In You (Alone) we put our trust, and to You (Alone) we turn in repentance, and to You (Alone) is (our) final Return, – … Certainly, there has been in them an excellent example for you to follow, – for those who look forward to (the Meeting with) Allaah – (for the reward from Him) and the Last Day. And whosoever turn away, then verily, Allaah is Rich (Free of all wants), Worthy of all Praise.” [60:4,6]

Once this separation & enmity is clear, it is unavoidable that there will be hostility and disavowal and the resulting struggle against the enemies of Allaah. So long as the laws and wisdom of Allaah dictate that there should be the distinction between believers and disbelievers, there has to be this clearly-stated enmity? There can be no change to the laws of Allaah.

There cannot be harmony between Jews – who are usurpers and aggressors, who have oppressed and persecuted others, and who are known for their treachery and corruption throughout the world, historically and in the present age – and the purely monotheistic Muslim owners of the land, whose menfolk the Jews have killed, and imprisoned their sons, and destroyed their homes, and taken possession of their lands by force, and prevented them from earning a proper living, and carried out chemical and radiational experiments on their prisoners, and taken organs from them for transplant into Jewish patients… and all other kinds of persecutions & atrocities.

In addition to this, the Jews are people of treachery and betrayal; it is not possible to trust them at all. Their previous & current conducts bear this out: is there any treaty or agreement signed by them that they have actually fulfilled? This is no big surprise for the Muslims, who know what Allaah has said in His Book about the Jews : “Is it not (the case) that every time they make a covenant, some party among them throws it aside? Nay! The truth is most of them believe not.” [al-Baqarah 2:100].

Moreover, if the Muslims agreed to live in peace with the Jews, who would be in charge? One of the basic principles of Islam is that Islam should prevail, not be prevailed over. One of the conditions for People of the Book (Jews and Christians) living with Muslims in a Muslim country is that they should live under certain conditions (shuroot ahl al-dhimmah) in return for the security and protection afforded them by the Muslims. One of the most important of these conditions is that they should not openly display their shirk and kufr (polytheistic disbelief) in the Muslim lands, whether by word or deed.

As the Muslims and Jews are enemies residing in opposing religious and doctrinal camps, it is not possible for them to be brought together unless one is made to submit to the other by force. Indeed, the Jews now are not allowing the Muslims to remain in their homes, even if there was no provocative action on the part of the Muslims; they are seizing the Muslims’ property by force, building their settlements on the Muslims’ lands and expelling the Muslims by any means. They have expelled millions to the neighboring countries, which have accommodated them in the so-called Palestinian refugee camps.

“History tells us that the first people to settle in Palestine were the Canaanites, 6000 years BCE. They were an Arab tribe who came to Palestine from the Arabian Peninsula, and after their arrival, Palestine was named after them [i.e., Canaan].”(al-Suhyooniyyah, Nash’atuhaa, Tanzeemaatuhaa, Inshitatuhaa, by Ahmad al-‘Awadi, p. 7).

“As for the Jews, the first time they entered Palestine was about 600yrs years after Ibraheem (as) had entered the land, i.e., they entered it approximately 1400 years BCE. So the Canaanites entered Palestine & lived there approximately 4500 years before the Jews.”(Ibid., p. 8).Hence it is clear that the Jews have no right to the land, whether according to religious law or in terms of who lived there first & possessed the land. Undoubtedly, what is happening to the Muslims in the Holy Land of hardship, torture, expulsion, killing & harm is a matter which causes sorrow to every Muslim, indeed to every non-Muslim who is reasonable, fair-minded & compassionate, when they see the blatant persecution inflicted upon innocent people, with the intention of driving them out of their homes so that the enemy can take their place, which is an enemy that possesses the most advanced weapons, with which they attack unarmed people who are deprived of the means of defending themselves. Allah does not forbid you from those who do not fight you because of religion and do not expel you from your homes – from being righteous toward them and acting justly toward them. Indeed, Allah loves those who act justly. (Q60:8)

They have endured for about 60-years, facing unending Zionist arrogance & aggression, which pays no heed to human dignity or any covenant or treaty, or any law, except that to which their own whims and desires make them inclined & in which their evil rabbis & warlords encourage them.

The outcome of that is well known to Muslims as well as Jews, which is that the consequences will be in favour of the pious and the party of God will be the victors. The wrongdoer will never enjoy security, stability and prosperity, rather he will be faced with fear, anxiety, grief and shame, until the day comes when the Muslims come back to their religion and are governed by the sharee’ah of their Lord, then they will meet the Jews in battle, where the two sides will face one another, and victory will go to the people of faith.

Bukhaari & Muslim : Abu Hurayrah (ra) :the Messenger of Allaah : “The Hour will not begin until the Muslims fight the Jews and kill them, until a Jew will be hiding behind a rock or a tree, and the rock or tree will say, ‘O Muslim, O slave of Allaah, here is a Jew behind me, come and kill him!’ except for the box-thorn (al-gharqad), for it is one of the trees of the Jews.”

The Palestinian issue is an ISLAMIC ISSUE NOT AN ARAB NATIONALISTIC ISSUE, first and last, but the enemies of Islam are striving their utmost to remove it from the Islamic map and make the non-Arab Muslims think that it is an Arab issue that does not concern the non-Arabs. Islam prohibits Nationalism, Racism, tribalism etc. https://islamqa.info/en/97732

A solution cannot be reached in this matter unless it is regarded as an Islamic issue and the Muslims world over (individuals, groups neighboring or far nations) cooperate to find an Islamic solution, and wage the True Islamic jihad against the Jews, for it is upon this alone, Allaah has made victory dependent.

So, the land is given back to its people and the Jewish immigrants go back to the countries from which they came, and the original Jewish inhabitants stay in their towns under Islamic rule, not communist or secular rule. In this manner truth will prevail and falsehood will be defeated, and the people whose land it is will return to their land under Islamic rule and none other.

RACISM: THE WORLD CAN’T BREATHE 2 of 2

https://blacklivesmatter.com/

This is what changed the heart of a racist Malcolm X when he performed Hajj in Makkah, brought Muhammad Ali to Islam, still attracts the untouchables of India towards Islam. This convinced historian Professor A.J. Toynbee in 1948 to say : “The extinction of race consciousness as between Muslims is one of the outstanding achievements of Islam, and in the contemporary world there is, as it happens, a crying need for the propagation of this Islamic virtue.”

“Thereof (the earth) We created you, and into it We shall return you, and from it We shall bring you out once again” [Q20:55].

Abu Moosa al-Ash’ari : “I heard the Messenger of Allah (saw) : ‘Allah created Adam from a handful that He gathered from the entire earth, so the sons of Adam come like the earth. Some of them are red, some are white, some are black and some are in between. Some of them are easy, some of them are difficult, some are evil and some are good.”(al-Tirmidhi).

Nationalism & Xenophobia are completely alien and forbidden ideologies in Islam because the Prophet Mohammad (saw) said: “ ….. Leave it, It is Rotten ” (Bukhari).

It is narrated by Abu Daud that the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, “He is not one us who calls for `Asabiyah, (nationalism/tribalism/xenophobia, racism) or who fights for `Asabiyah or who dies for `Asabiyah.”

” …People should give up their pride in nations because this is a coal from the coals of hell-fire. If they do not give this up Allah (swt) will consider them lower than a lowly worm which pushes itself through khur (feaces).” [Tirmidhi]. Nationalism, xenophobia, racism, tribalism always have arrogant undertone. Abdullah ibn Mas’ud : Prophet (saw) said: “No one who has an atom’s-weight of arrogance in his heart will enter Paradise.” A man said, “O Messenger of Allaah, what if a man likes his clothes and his shoes to look good?” He said, “Allah is Beautiful and loves beauty. ARROGANCE MEANS REJECTING THE TRUTH AND LOOKING DOWN ON PEOPLE.” (Muslim).

Jabir ibn `Abd Allah al Ansari, narrated : “We were on a raid when one of the Muhajirun kicked one of the Ansar. The Ansar said, `O Ansar! Help me! (Calling his tribe) and the Muhajir said, `O Muhajirun! Help me! (Calling his tribe). The Messenger of Allah (saw) heard them and said, “Why are you stirring up something which belongs to Jahilliyah?”

The Messenger of Allah (saw) also said, “The believers, in their love, mutual kindness, and close ties, are like one body; when any part complains, the whole body responds to it with wakefulness and fever.” [Muslim]. “Every Muslim is a brother to a Muslim, neither wronging him nor allowing him to be wronged. And if anyone helps his brother in need, Allah will help him in his own need; and if anyone removes a calamity from [another] Muslim, Allah will remove from him some of the calamities of the Day of Resurrection; and if anyone shields [another] Muslim from disgrace, Allah will shield him from the disgrace on the Day of Resurrection.” [Al-Bukhari ].

Meaning that the Muslims, whether they are of Chinese, African, European or Asian origin, are one Ummah and they cannot be separated from each other. No nationalistic, xenophobic nor tribalistic ties should ever break their unity. “And hold fast, all of you together, to the Rope of Allâh (i.e. this Qur’ân), and be not divided among yourselves,” Q3:103. “If anyone proudly asserts his descent in the manner of the pre-Islamic people, tell him to bite his father’s penis, and do not use a euphemism”. (Sahih)

Let’s ask ourselves if the Muslim Ummah today, in its individual & collective behaviour is striving to adopt and promote these Islamic ideals?. Amazing to see some ignorant people who claim to be Muslims & Non-racial while performing Hajj & while doing worldly businesses with other Muslims; suddenly become racists when their children opt to marry upright Muslims from other tribes & races. Real Muslims & real human beings are colour, nationality, ethnicity & race blind. The feeling of superiority or inferiority over race, tribe, wealth, height, stature or colour is a sign of ingratitude & refusal of the decree of Allah because we have no control over the colour of our skin, race or tribe we are born into, it is the decree of the creator.

IMAM AL ALBAANI (RH) SAID A WHITE MAN WHO MAKES FUN OF A BLACK MAN OR VICE VERSA , THEY BOTH MAKE FUN (INSULTING ALLAH) WHO CREATED THEM BOTH.

RACISM: THE WORLD CAN’T BREATHE 1 OF 2.

https://blacklivesmatter.com/

Racism has been called the social cancer of our time. It gnaws away slowly and insidiously until it invades the whole organism of society and erupts in violence and death. Racism is an innate belief in superiority in oneself over another or the practice of treating a person or group of people differently on the basis of their race, colour, ethnicity etc. This mainly occurs in groups who have difference in colour, also arises with difference in traditions. It existed from time immemorial. A Racist is one who is lesser than a non-living thing in status because he/she deliberately suppresses his/her intellectual & emotional intelligence or maturity & sees life only through the telescopes of skin, eye, hair colour/ texture, tribe, lineage, man-made geographical borders. Darwinism is the foundation of its modern form. However, neither anthropology, nor biology nor for that matter any science offers the slightest justification for racist dogmas, which are based on discredited scientific notions or emotional irrationalism. The full facts still need to be placed before every person so that the social cancer of racism may one day be eradicated. Pristine Islam is the only effective therapy to this sickness.

From generations of thousands of racists/killers from time immemorial around the world, up to the latest of them; Derek Chauvin and his co-killers of George Floyd; a fellow human being simply because of his skin or race we say to them “…. Whoever kills a soul unless for a soul or for corruption [done] in the land – it is as if he had slain mankind entirely, and whoever saves one – it is as if he had saved mankind entirely….”Quran 5 :32.

“Nor take life — which Allah has made sacred — except for just cause. And if anyone is slain wrongfully, we have given his heir authority (to demand retaliation or to forgive): but let him not exceed bounds in the matter of taking life, for he is helped (by the Law).” [Quran 17:33]. “And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell to abide therein, and the Wrath and the Curse of Allah are upon him, and a great punishment is prepared for him”. [Q 4:93].

Racists are less than non-living things in status they therefore deserve a minimum sentence of an equivalent brutal style of death and a maximum sentence of eternity in hellfire on the day of judgement because for every human being they kill, they kill the entire mankind unless they sincerely repent.

The perfection of Allah’s divine creative attribute is partly expressed in the diversity of color, race, ethnicity etc. The beauty of the human race is also reflected in this diversity of color, race etc. If you still don’t understand, compare a single & a multi-coloured flower bouquet, Which is more beautiful?

O people, Remember that your Lord is One. An Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a black has no superiority over white, nor a white has any superiority over black, except by piety and good action (Taqwa). Indeed the best among you is the one with the best character (Taqwa). Listen to me. Did I convey this to you properly? People responded, Yes. O messenger of God, The Prophet then said, then each one of you who is there must convey this to everyone not present. (Excerpt Prophet’s Last Sermon)

For those who are still colour & race enslaved, Allah has given us a few reminder signs in Albinism, Vitiligo & Down syndrome . All ABINOS have a similar skin colour irrespective of the colour, race, ethnicity of the family from which they were born. If race & colour are indeed factors to determine superiority , then which albino will be considered to be superior; that born from a black family, that from a white family or that from any other shades of black or white, races & nationalities.

Many, if not all people with DOWN SYNDROME have almond-shaped eyes, short stature etc. This common features give a general physical similarity to all down syndromes. It is not related to colour, race, nationality, religion or socio economic status but genetic make up common to all children of Adam. If colour & race are indeed signs of superiority or inferiority. How superior or inferior are the people from all races & colours who have a condition called vitiligo: in which the dark pigment (melanin) previously present is lost from areas of the skin, causing whitish patches, often with no clear cause.

Whatever scientific explanations we give through the knowledge Allah has bestowed on us as the underlying cause; does not change the fact that it is Allah that is responsible for such chromosomal or genetic differences that brought about the display of the divine creative power as seen in Albinism, Down syndrome & Vitiligo. They further confirm the irrelevance of racial difference in the sight of God as expressed in the Quran.

“And among His Signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the difference of your languages and colours. Verily, in that are indeed signs for men of sound knowledge.” [Q 30:22].

“O Men, We created you from male and female and made you peoples and tribes that you may KNOW one another (NOT THAT YOU MAY DESPISE EACH OTHER).”Q.49:13

So, Allah the Almighty did not create dark or light skin as a tool of discrimination but as a sign to realise His creative might & to appreciate the beauty in diversity of His creation.

Abu Dharr reproached Bilal about his mother, saying, “O son of a black woman!” Bilal went to the Messenger of Allah, (saw), and he told him what he said. The Prophet became angry and then Abu Dharr came, although he was unaware of what Bilal told him. The Prophet turned away from him and Abu Dharr asked, “O Messenger of Allah, have you turned away because of something you have been told?” The Prophet said, “Have you reproached Bilal about his mother? By the one who revealed the Book to Muhammad, none is more virtuous over another except by righteous deeds. You have none but an insignificant amount.” Sahih This rebuke had a profound effect on Abu Dharr, who then put his head on the ground swearing that he would not raise it until Bilal had put his foot over it. Among the companions were Salman (Persian), Suhayb (Roman /Greek). The Prophet said: You should listen to and obey your ruler even if he was an Ethiopian slave whose head looked like a raisin (Bukhari). These incidents demonstrate that tribal ties have no place in Islam. Muslims are commanded to stick together and not to disassociate themselves from each other just because they come from different tribes or races.

8 – Preparing some authentic Islamic books which can be read at home or given to the imam of the mosque to read to the people during Ramadaan.

9 – Fasting some of the month of Sha’baan in preparation for fasting Ramadaan.

‘Aa’ishah (radiallahuaniah) said: The Messenger (sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) ……… And I never saw the Messenger (sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) complete a month of fasting except Ramadaan, and I never saw him fast more in any month than in Sha’baan. Bukhaari.

Usaamah ibn Zayd said: I said: O Messenger of Allaah, I do not see you fasting in any month as you fast in Sha’baan? He said: “That is a month that people neglect between Rajab and Ramadaan, but it is a month in which people’s deeds are taken up to the Lord of the Worlds and I would like my deeds to be taken up when I am fasting.” Saheeh al-Nasaa’i.

10 – Reading Qur’aan

Salamah ibn Kuhayl said: It was said that Sha’baan was the month of the Qur’aan readers.

When Sha’baan began, ‘Amr ibn Qays would close his shop and free his time for reading Qur’aan. Abu Bakr al-Balkhi said: The month of Rajab is the month for planting, the month of Sha’baan is the month of irrigating the crops, and the month of Ramadaan is the month of harvesting the crops. He also said: The likeness of the month of Rajab is that of the wind, the likeness of Sha’baan is that of the clouds and the likeness of Ramadaan is that of the rain; whoever does not plant and sow in Rajab, and does not irrigate in Sha’baan, how can he reap in Ramadaan? This is how our Prophet and the early generations of the ummah were in this blessed month.

PREPARING FOR BLESSINGS 1 of 2/2 of 2.

PREPARING FOR BLESSINGS 1 of 2.

Many people misunderstand the true nature of fasting, and they make it an occasion for eating & drinking, making special sweets and staying up late at night & watching shows on satellite TV. They make preparations for that long before Ramadhan, lest they miss out on some food or prices go up. They prepare by buying food, preparing drinks and looking at the satellite TV guide so they can choose which shows to follow and which to ignore. They are truly unaware of the real nature of fasting in Ramadhan; they take worship and piety out of the month and make it just for their bellies & their eyes. Others are aware of the real nature of fasting in the month of Ramadaan, so they start to prepare from Sha’baan, and some of them even start before that. Among the best ways of preparing for the month of Ramadaan are:

1 –SINCERE REPENTANCE

This is obligatory at all times, but because of the approach of a great and blessed month, it is even more important to hasten to repent from sins between you and your Lord, and between you and other people by giving them their rights, so that when the blessed month begins you may busy yourself with acts of worship with a clean heart and peace of mind. Allaah says :

“And all of you beg Allaah to forgive you all, O believers, that you may be successful”. [24:31]

Al-Agharr ibn Yasaar (radiallahuanihu) ;Prophet (sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “O people, repent to Allaah for I repent to Him one hundred times each day.” Muslim.

2 –DU’AA’ (SUPPLICATION)

It was narrated from some of the salaf that they used to pray to Allaah for six months that they would live until Ramadaan, then they would pray for five months afterwards that He would accept it from them. The Muslim should ask his Lord to let him live until Ramadaan with a strong religious commitment & good physical health, and he should ask Him to help him obey Him during the month, and ask Him to accept his good deeds from Him.

3 – REJOICING AT THE APPROACH OF THE BLESSED MONTH

The arrival of Ramadaan is one of the great blessings that Allaah bestows upon His Muslim slave, because Ramadaan is one of the occasions of good in which the gates of Paradise are opened and the gates of Hell are closed. It is the month of the Qur’aan and of decisive battles in the history of our religion.

“Say: ‘In the Bounty of Allaah, and in His Mercy (i.e. Islam and the Qur’aan); —therein let them rejoice.’ That is better than what (the wealth) they amass” [10:58]

4 – DISCHARGING THE DUTY OF ANY OUTSTANDING OBLIGATORY FASTS

Abu Salamah said: I heard ‘Aa’ishah (radiallahuaniah) say: I would owe fasts from the previous Ramadaan and I would not be able to make them up except in Sha’baan. Bukhaari.

Al-Haafiz Ibn Hajar (rahimahullah) said: From her keenness to do that in Sha’baan it may be understood that it is not permissible to delay making them up until another Ramadaan begins.
