Be careful with this book

The new AMERICAN Quran: a dangerous trick.
A new Quran is being distributed in Kuwait , titled 'The True Furqan'.
It is being described as the ayats of the Shaytan and Al-Furqan weekly
magazine has found out that the two American printing Companies;
'Omega 2001' and 'Wine Press' are involved in the publishing of 'The True Furqan',
a book which has also been titled 'The 21st Century Quran'!
It has over 366 pages and is in both the Arabic and English languages...it is being
distributed to our children in Kuwait in the private English schools! The book contains 77 Surats,
which include Al-Fatiha, Al-Jana and Al-Injil. Instead of Bismillah, each Surat begins with a
longer vesion of this incorporating the Christian belief of the three spirits.

And this so called Quran opposes many Islamic beliefs. in one of its ayats it describes
having more than one wife as fornication, divorce being non-permissible and it uses
a new system for the sharing out of the will, opposing the current one. It states that
Jihad is HARAAM.

This book even goes as far as attacking Allah, Subhanahu wa Tahala!

All this is poisoning our children at approx. price of US $3.

Faith in God

A girl went to her friends house and she ended up staying longer than
planned, and had to walk home alone. She wasn't afraid because it was a small COMMUNITY and she lived only a few blocks away..

As she walked along under the bike trail Amina asked ALLAH to keep her safe from harm and danger.

When she reached the alley, which was a short cut to her house, she decided to take it. However, halfway down the alley she noticed a man standing at the end as though he were waiting for her.

She became uneasy and began to recite a dua, asking for ALLAH's protection Instantly a comforting feeling of quietness and security wrapped round her, she felt as though someone was walking with her.

When she reached the end of the alley, she walked right past the man and arrived home safely.

The following day, she read in the newspaper that a young girl had been raped in the same alley just twenty minutes after she had been there.

Feeling overwhelmed by this tragedy and the fact that it could have been her, she began to weep.

Thanking ALLAH for her safety and to help this young woman who was raped, she decided to go to the police station.

She felt she could recognize the man, so she told them her story.

The police asked her if she would be willing to look at a lineup to see if she could identify him..

She agreed and immediately pointed out the man she had seen in the alley the night before.

When the man was told he had been identified, he immediately broke down and confessed.

The officer thanked Amina for her bravery and asked if there was anything they could do for her.

She asked if they would ask the man one question. Amina was curious as to why he had not attacked her.

When the policeman asked him, he answered, 'Because she wasn't alone. She had two tall men walking on either side of her.....'

Amazingly, whether you believe or not, you're not alone. People will not stand up for ALLAH........

ALLAH is always there in your heart and loves you no matter what.

'If you deny me in front of your friends, I shall deny you on the day of Judgement'

AT TIME OF IFTAAR...

Once Moosa (AS) asked Allah Ta'ala: O Allah! You have granted me the honor and privilege of talking to you directly, Have you given this privilege to any other person? Allah Ta'ala replied, O!! Moosa during the last period I am going to send an ummat, who will be the Ummat of Mohammed (SAW) with dry lips, parched tongues, emaciated body with eyes sunken deep into their sockets, with livers dry and stomachs suffering the pangs of hunger- will call out to me (in dua) they will be much closer to me than you O Moosa! while you speak to me there are 70000 veils between you and me but at the time of iftaar there will not be a single veil between me and the fasting Ummati of Mohammed (SAW) O!! Moosa I have taken upon myself the responsibility that at the time of iftaar I will never refuse the dua of a fasting person!

Sub'hanallah! !

How to Handle a Rumor: The Test of Three

Keep this philosophy in mind the next time you either hear or are about to repeat a rumor.
In ancient Greece (469 - 399 BC), Socrates was widely lauded for his wisdom. One day the great philosopher came upon an acquaintance who ran up to him excitedly and said, "Socrates, do you know what I just heard about one of your students?"
"Wait a moment," Socrates replied. "Before you tell me, I'd like you to pass a little test. It's called the Test of Three."

"Three?"
"That's right, Socrates continued. "Before you talk to me about my student let's take a moment to test what you're going to say. The first test is Truth. Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about to tell me is true?"
No," the man said, "actually I just heard about it."
"All right," said Socrates. "So you don't really know if it's True or not."
"Now let's try the second test, the test of Goodness. Is what you are about to tell me about my student something good?"
"No, on the contrary..."
"So," Socrates continued, "you want to tell me something bad about him even though you're not certain it's true?"
The man shrugged, a little embarrassed.
Socrates continued. "You may still pass though, because there is a third test - the filter of Usefulness. Is what you want to tell me about my student going to be Useful to me?"
"No, not really..."
"Well," concluded Socrates, "if what you want to tell me is neither True nor Good nor even Useful, why tell it to me at all?"
The man was defeated and ashamed. This was the reason Socrates was a great philosopher and held in such high esteem.

Of course, it also may explain why Socrates never found out that Plato was cavorting with his wife ;)

AAMEEN!!!!!! !
------------ --------- --------- --------- -------
THOSE WHO DO NOT SAY THEIR PRAYERS OF:
FAJR : the glow of their face is taken away.
ZUHR : the blessing of their income is taken away.
ASR : the strength of their body is taken away.
MAGHRIB : they are not benefited by their children.
'ISHA : the peace of their sleep is taken away.

THE HOLY QUR'AN:
'Say Your Prayers Before Prayers For You Are Said'.

Prophet MUHAMMAD (s.a.w) Said

"If the people knew the reward for the Dhuhur prayer in its early time, they would race for it. If they knew the reward for "Isha" and the "Fajr" prayers in congregation, they would join them even if they had to crawl.

If they knew the reward for the first row, they would draw lots for it". (Sahih AL-Bukkhari vol. 1: no.688)".

Three important and beneficial things, Hazrat Muhammad(s.a.w.) says that "if a person recite:

1. " Ayatal Kursi" after every Fardh Namaz (Salaah) then there will be nothing between him and Heaven except Death"

2) There is a Hadith that says "La Haula Wala Quwwata illa billahil aliyil adheem" is such a great medicine that it cures every disease and the most minor disease it cures is "Sorrow"

3) Another Hadith says "if a person recite surah ikhlaas, (Khul huwallahu ahad.. ) 10 times in a day then Allah build a palace for him in the Heaven. (Subhaan Allah)"

New Islam

Are you ready for ramadan

Before embarking on a journey, most travellers will prepare for it either physically or mentally. Since Ramadan is just around the corner, here is a quick checklist to better prepare ourselves for this journey of test…..Let’s start from head to toe:-

1. Head (Brain)

Are our minds clear on what are we expected or required to do and why?

a. YES. (it’s the third pillar of ISLAM and to seek ALLAH’s mercy and love).
b. NO.. (check again..!! This is not a joke!).

2. Eyes

Are we ready to even lower our gazes further?..

a. YES.. (Hopefully, our eyes will be “shut” to anything “haram” even more than our normal days)…
b. NO… (please get hold of a blindfold!)..

3. Ears

Are we ready not to listen to anything but only good such AL QURAN recital, religious speeches etc.?

a. YES.. (All radio and television programmes are tuned to ISLAMIC channels).
b. NO… (Earplug anybody?).

4. Mouth

Are we going to blabber unnecessarily?

a. YES.. (Silence is golden applied here).
b. NO… (Allhumdulilah, only Quranic verses will come out from the mouth this Ramadan!..SURE?..TRY no harm trying, Insha’Allah).

5. Heart

Are we doing it for the sake of ALLAH SWT alone or are we doing it to loose weight?..

a. YES… (Only ALLAH will know our true “niat” (our intentions) and feeling).
b. NO…. (Throw that weighing scale, diet manual, exercise machine…clean your heart and focus)..

6. Hands

Are we going to give alms, zakat and be helpful (lending a hand)..?

a. YES.. (Allhumdulilah, make sure what the right hand gives the left hand does not know).
b) NO… (Cut your hand..(KIDDING)..ISLAM is not cruel! Just do not do any harm to others with your hands).

7. Private Part (Sex)

Lets keep this very private..however for those who are married please exercise restrain? Those who are not married …DON’T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT (period!)..

a. YES.. (Allhumdulilah fasting is not only avoiding eating or drinking but to curb our other lusts too).
b. NO… (I do not know what to say….will chastity belts for both men and women do?)..

8. Legs

Are we going an extra mile to make sure our legs are going to ferry us to and fro the mosque?

a. YES.. (Every step to the mosque is a blessing for us).
b. NO… (get ready the chain..?).

Now if your answers are all YES (except for question 4) then you are ready to embark on this “tough” 30 days journey…..If not please go to your nearest convenient store and do a restocking fast!!

I wish all Muslims the best of IMAN and happy travelling. Rasulullah saw ever mentioned that there are some who fast but gain nothing, only hunger and thirst..we do not want to be in these category.

Shape of the Earth

وَالْأَرْضَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ دَحَاهَا 79:30
“And the earth, moreover, hath He made egg shaped.”
(Al Quran Chapter 79 Verses 30)
In early times, people believed that the earth was flat. For centuries, men were afraid to venture out too far, for fear of falling off the edge
It was only in 1597 when Sir Francis Drake sailed around the earth and proved that the earth is spherical in shape.
But The Quran had already told the exact spherical shape of the Earth about a 1000 Years earlier than that.
The word used in above verse DAHAH literary means an egg and it is specifically referred to the Egg of an Ostrich.
That resembles the exact shape of the Earth.
WAS IT KNOWN 1400 YEARS AGO WHEN QURAN WAS REVEALED, NO!
