Asalam o alaikum warah matullah wabarkatuhu

After observing a lot of "mulsim population" on this forum, I decided to create this thread. If this kind of thread has already been created then please close this and post a link to that other thread.

Feel free to post/ask any questions, ask anything to clarify things and post any relevant material. InshAllah brothers over here will try their best to answer that question. Also, please make sure to include the reference and link if taken from a website when answer any question or posting something.

This thread is open to both muslims and non-muslims so come in and feel free to ask anything.

Since Ramadan is just around the corner, I will start this thread by expressing the importance of this holy month. It is the most blessed month of the year because the revelation of Holy Quran started in this month and also ended in this month, (also mentioned by our brother Abusammad (aka PeterKay or PK) in one of the other thread). I would like to quote a hadith from Prophet (PBUH) which will truly show the importance of this month.

"In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful"

"Kaab Ibn Ujrah (RA) relates that Rasulullah (SAW) said Come near to the mimbar and we came near the mimbar. When He (SAW) climbed the first step of the mimbar, He (SAW) said "Aameen", When He (SAW) ascended the second step, He (SAW) said "Aameen", When He (SAW) climbed the third step, He (SAW) said "Aameen" When He (SAW) came down, We said "O Rasool of Allah (SAW), we have heard from you today something which we never heard before" He (SAW) said When I climbed the first step, the angel Jibraeel (A.S.) appeared before me and said

"Destruction to him who found the blessed month of Ramdhan and let it pass by without gaining forgiveness"

upon that I said 'Aameen'. When I climbed the second step, he said,

"Destruction to him before whom thy name is taken and then he does not make Dua for Allah's blessing on me (by saying, for example SAW)."

I replied 'Aameen'. When I climbed the third step, he said

"Destruction unto him in whose lifetime his parents or either one of them reaches old age, and (through failure to serve them) he is not allowed to enter Jannah".

I said 'Aameen'"
(Hakim, Baihaqi)

May Allah guide us towards taking full advantage of this month ameen sum ameen.

Please do correct me if I am mistaken at any point.

JazakAllah

Peace Be Upon His Soul

a few more sayings of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyzDG8kbsmA


The Farewell Sermon of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)

The Farewell Sermon (Arabic: Khutbatul Wada), also known as the Prophet's (pbuh) final sermon, was delivered on the ninth day of Dhu al-Hijjah, 10 A.H. (632 CE), at the end of his first and final pilgrimage to Makkah.

The Farewell Sermon is mentioned in almost all books of Hadith. Sahih Al-Bukhari refers to the sermon and quotes part of it. Imam Ahmed ibn Hanbal has given the longest and perhaps the most complete version of this sermon in his Musnad.

Muhammad (pbuh) led the Pilgrims from Makkah through the Valley of Mina and up to the Mountain of Arafat and then stopped them in the Valley of Uranah. They stood in front of him silently as he sat on his camel and delivered this sermon. With a crowd of over 120,000 pilgrims, his voice could not reach out to all those who were present. He therefore asked Rab'ah Ibn Umayya Ibn Khalaf, who was known to have a loud voice, to repeat the sermon after him, sentence by sentence so that everyone could hear. The sermon is as follows:

" O People,

Just as you regard this month, this day, this city as sacred, so regard the life and property of every Muslim as a sacred trust. Return the goods entrusted to you to their rightful owners. Hurt no one so that no one may hurt you. Remember that you will indeed meet your Lord, and that He will indeed reckon your deeds. Allah has forbidden you to take usury (interest, Arabic: Riba); therefore all interest obligation shall henceforth be waived. Your capital, however, is yours to keep. You will neither inflict nor suffer any inequity.

Allah has Judged that there shall be no usury (interest) and that all interest due to Abbas Ibn Abd al Muttalib (the Prophet's uncle) shall henceforth be waived.

Beware of Satan for the safety of your religion. He has lost all hope that he will ever be able to lead you astray in big things, so beware of following him in small things.

O People,

It is true that you have certain rights in regard to your women, but they also have rights over you. Remember that you have taken them as your wives, only under Allah's trust and with His permission. If they abide by your right then to them belongs the right to be fed and clothed in kindness. Do treat your women well and be kind to them, for they are your partners and committed helpers. And it is your right that they do not make friends with anyone of whom you do not approve, as well as never to be unchaste.

O People,

Listen to me in earnest, worship Allah, say your five daily prayers (Salah), fast during the month of Ramadan, and give your wealth in Zakat.

Perform Hajj if you can afford to.

All mankind is from Adam and Eve, an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over a black, nor a black has any superiority over a white - except by piety and good action. Learn that every Muslim is a brother to every Muslim and that the Muslims constitute one brotherhood. Nothing shall be legitimate to a Muslim, which belongs to a fellow Muslim unless it was given freely and willingly. Do not therefore, do injustice to yourselves.

Remember one day you will appear before Allah and answer for your deeds. So beware, do not stray from the path of righteousness after I am gone.

O People,

No prophet or apostle will come after me and no new faith will be born. Reason well therefore, O people, and understand words which I convey to you. I leave behind me two things, the Quran and the Sunnah, and if you follow these you will never go astray. All those who listen to me shall pass on my words to others and those to others again; and may the last ones understand my words better than those who listened to me directly.

Be my witness, O Allah, that I have conveyed your message to your people".

As part of this sermon, the Prophet (pbuh) recited them a Revelation from God which he had just received:

This day the disbelievers despair of prevailing against your religion, so fear them not, but fear Me (God)! This day have I perfected for you your religion and fulfilled My favor unto you, and it hath been My good pleasure to choose Islam for you as your religion (Al-Quran 5:3).

Toward the end of his sermon, Muhammad (pbuh) asked:

"O people, have I faithfully delivered unto you my message?"

A powerful murmur of assent "O God, yes!", arose from thousands of pilgrims and the vibrant words "Allahumma na’m" rolled like thunder throughout the valley. Muhammad raised his forefinger and said:

"Be my witness O God, that I have conveyed your message to your people."

JazakAllah Abusamad, a very nice thing to read indeed, not just to read but to understand it as well. This sermon by Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) takes care of many small conflicts that we have in the muslim community these days,

May Allah give you the jaza for this. ameen sum ameen

There is one thing sum1 showed me recently. After reading this article, my heart instantly thanked Allah for all his bounties upon me, for giving me health and everything else. We must thank Allah everyday and every second for everything He has given us.

Please read the article and thanks Allah for giving us health.

Asalam o alaikum warah matullah wabarakatuhu

Jazak Allah to all the brothers (Muslim and non-Muslim) coming over here. We, as a muslim, have a responsibility to spread the true message of Islam and clear all the mis-conceptions that we have. Please feel free to contribute to this thread by asking questions or posting relevant information. All the brothers over here will try their best to answer the question in the most authentic way.

JazakAllah khair Abusamad for those nice clips. Indeed brother zakir naik has done an excellent job in utilizing the modern media and spreading Islam.

Here is a nasheed regarding the rights of wife in islam. Although the nasheed is in arabic, there are some very nice Quranic verses and hadeeth posted here regarding the subject. Also if you click the "more info" located on the right hand side, you will find an english translation of the nasheed.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOGou6UJdmk

And also , it is now official (31st August 2008) that 1st September is the first day of Ramadan. Let us all take full advantage of this blessed month and get our sins forgiven. ameen sum ameen

Wasalam o alaikum warahma tullah wabarakatuhu

@Muhammad Oli thank you very much for the good wishing of this thread. People from all the religion are invited over here

@Bonovox, thank you very much for stopping by . Islam also teaches us to respect all the religions. and that is exactly what we all should do.

Asalam o alaikum warah matullah wabara katuhu

Just came back from taraweeh and it felt so good alhamdolillah

couple of websites that i want to share with you guys

1) GuidedWays
I am sure many of you would have heard of it. For those who havent, it is a very good Islamic website with many diverse Islamic materials. e.g.
* for people living in UK, US and dubai, you can watch peacetv on it. Live
* there are many full hadeth books here in english
* you can find many Islamic softwares for PC and mobile.
* translations and recitation of the Holy Quran

http://www.guidedways.com/index.php

2) Abdur Rehman's authentic Islamic sources
Alhamdolillah we as muslims are in constant strive of learning our religion and living our life according to Quran and Sunnah of Prophet (PBUH). Alhamdolillah this next website contains tons of materials (articles, books) on different topic. So if any one of the brother or sister needs to find an answer to a solution or to just read some articles, I am sure they can do so from this website

http://www.abdurrahman.org/


I am currently searching for a website on which live taraweeh is broadcasted from Makkah and/or Madinah. Since taraweeh over there has ended right now therefore all of the links are off. But inshAllah tomorrow I will find it and post the link. This is to help our brothers who are not living in Makkah or Madinah to feel the atmosphere of those two Holy Places in this month. Alhamdolillah Allah has given me numerous opportunities to visit both Makkah and Madinah and for that I am very very very very very thankful to Allah. May Allah constantly keep on giving me and other brothers an opportunity to visit these two cities ameen sum ameen

Wasalam o alaikum warah matullah wabarakatuhu
