Reflecting on Surah al-Jinn - A Unique & Amazing Explanation


The Masajid are for Allah, so do not invoke with Allah anyone. [Surah al:Jinn 18]

Masajid, not just Al-Masjid Al-Haraam! Allah-u-Akbar! What Masajid, O Rabb? There were only two Masajid on the earth (at the time of the revelation of this ayat); Al-Masjid Al-Haraam and Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa. Al-Masjid Al-Haraam was under the authority of the Quraysh, and Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa was under the rule of the Romans, and the Noble Qur'an says, 'O Muhammad, the Masajid are for Allah, all Masajid!'

This is glad tidings from the heart of the critical Makkan situation that you will conquer Al-Masjid Al-Haraam and Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa, O Muhammad! How comforting was this to the heart of Rasulullah sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam! This is something Allah Ta'ala revealed to his Nabi, and Allah knows best.

Iran & Israel: Friends in War

Image
  As we edge closer to Qiyamah, deciphering the events that lead up to it becomes increasingly difficult. The air becomes foggier and the ground becomes more slippery with each step. Understanding the signs of Qiyamah is like Qiyamah itself.   Iran Iran has raised many eyebrows in the recent days. In order to understand the matter, it is essential to look into the history and significance of this place.  Iran has a rich and mixed history. It was conquered in the time of Sayyiduna 'Umar radiyallahu 'anhu and gave birth to some of the most magnificent scholars in the history of Islam.  The hadith of Sayyiduna Muhammad Rasulullah sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam had emphatically declared a short while before this conquest, that there will be no Kisra again after he disrespected the blessed letter of the Rasul of Allah and tore it up. The Kisra was soon killed, then his son consumed poison that his father left for him, and that led to the collapse of the Persian Empire....

I AM A VERY CONCERNED MUSLIM...

Image
  I AM A VERY CONCERNED MUSLIM... 1. For this reason, I see, understand and realize that Islam is under attack. I have closely followed societal trends in the past, but now I feel empty of what I would previously experience from my practices as a Muslim, without the frills and fusses of modernism. I AM A VERY CONCERNED MUSLIM... 2. I understand that what my parents, grandparents, and family did before - also as concerned Muslims - is very different from what the modern Muslim community is doing.   I AM A VERY CONCERNED MUSLIM... 3. I know that Islam teaches modesty and shame, so I shall not engage in free mixing at family functions, nor shall I attend lecture events with mixed audiences, even if the speaker seems very famous. As a concerned man, I shall not attend programs of a woman, and as a woman, I shall not attend the lectures of strange men, except if it is fully in-line with Hijab, with a solid barrier, where I cannot see the speaker, and he cannot see me. I AM A VERY C...

Don't Let your Guard Down: Become Circumspect in the Face of Shia Propaganda

Image
  Alhamdulillah, by and large, around the world, Muslims and non-Muslims have gauged the lies and propaganda that has been spewed by mass media regarding the genocide in Ghazza. In a similar way, the Shia have for years been spewing propaganda under our noses through social media, newspapers, magazines, and books. Shia propaganda is sometimes more difficult to point out and understand, because of the complexities of Taqiyyah and Kitmaan.  It is pointless to respond to each lie and wave of propaganda, because each Shia lie has thousands of attached lies that are all poisonous to a person's faith and one's worldview. If we take the current state of affairs, with the fight between Iran and Israel, we find that under the guise of news and information, a person unwittingly softens with regards to the Shia disbelievers, because the propaganda sent to the back of his or her mind is: 'Iran is the only one standing up.' If Iran is the only one standing up, then why do they not s...
