Women in Hijab Say It Completes Their Identity

A thin blond woman with a sharp face is shouting across the aisle in the southbound University line subway car.

Three hijab-clad girls sitting across from the angry woman look puzzled as they lean forward to hear her. They cannot make out what she is saying, “but I do not think it is polite,” one of the girls whispers.

This is what the woman is saying: “You need to challenge the men in your religion, and the imams, to respect women.”

A True Muslim Leader

Once Umar (Radhiyallaho Anho), during his caliphate, was going on his usual rounds towards Harrah (a suburb of Madinah) with his slave Aslam, when he saw a distant fire in the desert. He said, “There seems to be a camp. Perhaps, it is a caravan that could not enter the town due to night fall. Let’s go and look after them and arrange for their protection during the night.”

When he reached there, he found a woman and some children. The children were crying. The woman had a pan of water over the fire. Umar (Radhiyallaho Anho) greeted her with salaam and, with her permission, went near her. (The woman didn’t recognize that it was Umar).

Grandpa Uthman And His Grandson

As soon as Idrees got home from school, he ran to his grandfather to ask him about something that was on his mind.

“Grandpa,” he said, “I want to ask you something.”

“What is it, Idrees?” asked Grandpa Uthman.

“Grandpa, on the bus, a lady was telling her friend how important patience is, and how true patience should be as it is described in the Qur’an. Can you tell me what that means, Grandpa?”

Dont Forget to Do Zikr :)

THINK TWICE BEFORE SAYING SOMETHING; ANGELS ARE RECORDING EVERYTHING AND YOUR WORDS WILL BE HELD AGAINST YOU ON THE DAY OF JUDGEMENT. ON THAT DAY, OUR BODY PARTS WILL SPEAK AGAINST US. TAKE THIS DAY, THIS VERY HOUR TO REPENT AND LEAVE THAT WHICH DOES NOT CONCERN YOU AND YOUR GOALS.

Ralph Waldo Emerson said that..

TO LAUGH OFTEN AND MUCH; TO WIN THE RESPECT OF INTELLIGENT PEOPLE AND THE AFFECTION OF CHILDREN; TO EARN THE APPRECIATION OF HONEST CRITICS AND TO ENDURE THE BETRAYAL OF FALSE FRIENDS. TO APPRECIATE BEAUTY; TO FIND THE BEST IN OTHERS; TO LEAVE THE WORLD A BIT BETTER WHETHER BY A HEALTHY CHILD, A GARDEN PATCH, OR A REDEEMED SOCIAL CONDITION; TO KNOW THAT EVEN ONE LIFE HAS BREATHED EASIER BECAUSE YOU HAVE LIVED. THIS IS TO HAVE SUCCEEDED.

Shaykh Abul-Fadl said that..

DON’T EVER UNDERESTIMATE DU’A. WHAT IS THE VALUE OF DU’A? THAT YOU ARE TRANSFERRING A SITUATION FROM YOUR POWER AND ABILITY TO THE POWER AND ABILITY OF ALLAH. YOU ARE MOVING OBSTACLES FROM YOURSELF TO THE ONE WHO HAS NO OBSTACLES…
