Asalaama Alaykum w.w This article appeared in a recent issue of the "Muslim Creed" [Vol. 3 No. 2, February 1995] a free of charge Islamic Magazine meant for the dissemination of the Islamic creed, knowledge and Methodology of Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jama`ah in the light of the Qur'an and the Authentic Sunnah as understood and practiced by the Salaf. It is published by "The Dear of Islamic Heritage". My Dear Sister, Know that you are man's sister and half of humanity. You are a mother, wife, daughter, sister, aunt, grand daughter or grand mother. The Prophet said, what translated means, Women are, indeed, men's partners. [Abu Dawood]. -You are a member of the great nation of Islam, the best nation ever produced for mankind. No other nation on earth has more great men, leaders and conquerors than this nation. It is the nation of guidance and the straight religion, and it leads humanity to righteousness and truth. It transforms people from worshippers of slaves to worshippers of the Lord of slaves, from life's pressures to the pleasures of the Life after, and from the injustice of other religions to the justice of Islam. -Your ancestors, great women of Islam, were one of the main reasons for this great nation to take this great place among all nations. Allah, Who granted Islam to this nation, made a high place for Muslim women, and decreed that they share in the responsibilities of enjoining truth, forbidding evil and raising the flag of Islam. He said, what translated means, The believers, men and women, are loyalists of one another, they enjoin righteousness and forbid evil, they offer their prayers perfectly and give the Zakat, and obey Allah and His Messenger. Allah will leave His Mercy on them. Surely Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise. [9:71] Allah has given Muslim women what they can bare of orders and duties. He is the God Who knows His creation, Should He not know what He created? And He is the Most Kind, All-Aware (of everything). [67:14]. -My dear sister, you are called upon today to truly become an active member of the Muslim nation, strive to establish victory for Allah's Word, implement the Quran and help build the generation of Iman. What Do Your Enemies Want From You? There are those who want to distract you from doing your duty. They want to distract you from meeting your noble obligation, that is, to defend the religion of Allah and raise His Word high. Those enemies use many methods: First: They distract you from what Allah created you to perform of worship, belief and Da'wah (propagating Islam). They use this worldly life as their bate: Jewelry stores, fashions that originate in non-Muslim countries, new models all the time, desires raised, hunger that can never be satisfied, pleasures and competition for them and endless ways for joy. Allah did not create us for this. Indulging in these matters is usually accompanied by wasting time and money and igniting enmity and competition between the rich and the poor. Second: They ignite enmity between you and man. To those sinners, you are a daughter that is put down, a humiliated mother, an abused wife and an oppressed sister! Men are always unjust, hypocrites, dictators, freedom- preventers and suppressers, according to them. There is a fabricated war that those evil ones are starting for no reason other than to direct you to rebel against your father, be arrogant with your brother and disobedient to your husband. They do not call for justice, mercy and unity. They call for hatred, arrogance and destruction. Third: They do not stop at their call for rebellion against parents, brothers and husbands, rather, they plot against Islam. They call upon you to rebel against the obligations of Islam and the decrees of the All-Knowing King. Islam, to them, is unjust and Islamic laws are imperfect and restrictive. They call upon you, day and night, to rebel and insist on the disobedience of this religion. They try to rid you of your religion. They try to rid you of comfort and safety under generous parenthood, happy marriage and good brotherly relations. Those devils portray piety and honor as chains on freedom. To them, Hijab does not cover the head, but also covers the mind; prayer, fasting and Zakat are a waste of time and effort; and obedience to husbands is slavery and a retum to the stone age. They distorted all facts and changed all truths, all to serve their evil goals. Dear Sister, The goals that your enemies and the enemies of your religion are seeking to achieve are well known. They want you to be available for them to fulfill their evil desires whenever they wish. They want you to be a mistress that has no honor. They want you to be found everywhere, on roads and in places of sin, without honor, religion or manners. They seek for you only what they want you to do. The Western world has gone through this all. Women of the West are the part of society that is facing injustice and dishonor. They strive to please men who keep changing partners and seek pleasures but with no responsibility and no consideration of the evil consequences of their sinful actions. -O Muslim sister, read and know about those women who discarded shyness and honor and followed their desires, what was the result of their deeds? Was their end honorable and desirable, or was it a shameful and hated end? Advice For My Sister In Islam -Be proud of your religion and the religion of your ancestors. Be a good example for your sons and daughters and sincere in your belonging to this mighty nation. Know that honor is an honor to all wise people, and that adultery is dishonorable to all nations, even if some called it freedom. Know that adultery is also done with the eyes by seeing, with the ears by listening, and with the mouth by kissing, as was mentioned in a Hadith related by Imam Muslim. Your happiness is in being an obedient and believing daughter, a loyal and generous wife and a pious and merciful mother. Know that prayer is the cornerstone of Islam. Fasting one day, for the sake of Allah, takes your face seventy years away from Hellfire, as the Hadith, related by Al-Bukhari and Muslim, states. Charity is a major cause for gaining forgiveness and for repentance to be accepted. Those women who are showing parts of their bodies to men, will not enter Paradise or smell its fragrance and are cursed, as in the Hadith related by Imam Muslim. Hijab is an honor and protection for you. Hijab must be modest in color and not exotic, wide and thick and not revealing, different from the dress of non-Muslim women and men. My Dear Sister, -These are words from the heart. These are words of good and sincere advice. Beware of the loyalists of Satan who want to lead you astray. Be a slave of Allah, righteous and decendent of righteous women and know your role in building this great nation. Perform your duty and do not be a cause for destruction. Be a maker of righteous generation that will lead mankind, again, to what is right and proper, to the great religion of Islam. May Allah forgive us Aamiin !!!

asalaama alaykum w.w subhana allaah, that's what i wonder brother, may allaah forgive us for our sins, jazaka allaah khair for your reminder.

Asalaama Alaykum w.w hi all of my sis and bro in islam, i got onather usefull article, let me share with you, insha allaah Why a nun can be covered from head to toe and she's respected for devoting herself to God, but when a Muslimah does that, she's considered "oppressed"? Why a Jew can grow a beard and he's just practicing his faith, and when a Muslim does that, he's an extremist? When a western woman stays at home to look after the house and kids she's sacrificing herself and doing good for the household, but when a Muslim woman does so, she "needs to be liberated"? Why is it that when a child dedicates himself to a subject, he has potential, and when a child dedicates himself to Islam, he is hopeless? When a Christian kills someone, religion is not mentioned, (i.e., Ireland and the IRA) but when a Muslim is charged with a crime, it's Islam that goes to trial? But then again, why is it after all that, Islam is still the fastest growing religion in the world? Allahu Akbar!!! Wonder huh! ty4ut=thnk you for your time!

a/c wr wb to my sisters in islam i found this article one of my favorite islamic sites I would like to share with you // BY SAYDOON NISA Women have been generally portrayed as second class citizens. Their plight is being highlighted globally and on a massive scale, daily. Major initiatives are taking place both in Islamic and secular circles to give women their rightful place in society. What is overlooked is the long history of Islam's gender equality and the many examples around the world of how Islam continues to promote women's opportunities. Early Islamic history is replete with famous women jurists and scholars. Muslim women were famous in all fields of knowledge. Shaikha Shudha, known as Fakhr al Nisa, living in the 11th century was well known in literature, rhetoric, poetry, and history. She gave public lectures in mosques in Baghdad attended by many 'ulama' scholars. In the spiritual field, Rabia al Adawiyyah, known as Rabia Basri, a great Sufi of Basra in the 8th century infused the concept of divine love with such intensity that she devoted her whole life to contemplation of Allah. Khadijah, the wife of the Prophet (SAW) was a successful trader. She used her wealth in the way of Islam by helping the poor, in freeing slaves and propagating the message of Islam. Khadijah was one of many women who, at that time, ran their businesses. Aisha bint Abu Bakr, the daughter of the first caliph and wife of the Prophet (SAW), was an authority on the Sunnah - she narrated hundreds of authentic ahadiths. Women were consulted in the conduct of political affairs by the caliphs from the 7th century right to the end of the Ottoman empire. Umar ibn al Khattab, the second caliph, consulted with both Shif bint Abdallah and Samara bint Nuhayk who worked as inspectors in the market of Madinah. Women were among the first Muslims who were forced to leave their homes because of persecution and then spread the message of Islam. Among the martyrs of Islam, Sumayyah, a woman, was the first to lay down her life for the cause of Islam. In the Qur'an, the main source of Islamic teachings, men and women, have absolute parity: "The true believers, both men and women, are friends to each other, they enjoin what is just and forbid what is evil, they attend to their prayers and pay the alms tax and obey Allah and the Prophets." The only characteristic which distinguishes and differentiates between human beings in the Qur'an is piety. "Men and women, we have created you from a male and a female and divided you into nations an tribes that you might get to know one another, the noblest among you in the sight of Allah is he who fears Allah most." Both men and women are encouraged to acquire knowledge. The Prophet (saw) had stated that the quest for knowledge is obligatory for every Muslim - men and women. Women are empowered both in secular law and Islamic law, the examples being South Africa, a secular state,which has women in parliament and institutes of higher learning, and Sudan, where Islamic law is implemented, women are also in parliament and institutes of higher learning. Do we find the high status and equal treatment of women that Islam prescribes? Definitely, yes! The above information is known to all human kind. What is lacking is its implementation!!!

asalaama alaykum w.w ooh! sorry sis, I assumed you are a male :confused: , cause of the pic, thank you for telling me. wa iyyak

Asalama Alaykum W.W thnk you very much All of you much Appreciate.. wasalama Alaykum

asalama alaykum masha alah I like pets realy, specialy, birds, cats, etc,,, but, I'll choose one.. Falcon I had one in back home I realy miss him.. macasalama..

Asalama alaykum again I wana share you this poem .. I had no T I M E.. It was early in the morning at four, When death knocked upon a bedroom door, Who is there? The sleeping one cried. I'm Izrael, let me inside. At once, the man began to shiver, As one sweating in deadly fever, He shouted to his sleeping wife, Don't let him take away my life. Please go away, O Angel of Death! Leave me alone; I'm not ready yet. My family on me depends, Give me a chance, O please prepense! The angel knocked again and again, Friend! I'll take your life without a pain, ‘Tis your soul Allah requires, I come not with my own desire. Bewildered, the man began to cry, O Angel I'm so afraid to die, I'll give you gold and be your slave, Don't send me to the unlit grave. Why are you afraid! Tell me O man, To die according to Allah's plan? Come smile at me, do not be grim, Be Happy to return to Him. O Angel! I bow my head in shame, I had no time to take Allah's Name. From morning till dusk, I made my wealth, Not even caring for my health. Allah's command I never obeyed, Nor five times a day I ever prayed. A Ramadan came and a Ramadan went, But no time had I to repent. The Hajj was already compulsory on me, But I would not part with my money. All charities I did ignore, Taking usury more and more. Sometimes I sipped my favorite wine, With flirting women I sat to dine. O Angel! I appeal to you, Spare my life for a year or two. The Laws of Qur’an I will obey, I'll begin Salat this very day. My Fast and Hajj, I will complete, And keep away from self-conceit. I will refrain from usury, And give all my wealth to charity, Wine and wenches I will detest, Allah's oneness I will attest. We Angels do what Allah demands, We cannot go against His commands. Death is ordained for everyone, Father, mother, daughter or son. I'm afraid this moment is your last, Now be reminded, of your past, I do understand your fears, But it is now too late for tears. You lived in this world, two score and more, Never did you, your offspring adore. Instead of making more Muslims, You made your children non-Muslims. You ignored the Call to Prayer, Nor did you read the Holy Qur’an. Breaking promises all your life, Backbiting friends, and causing strife. From hoarded goods, great profits you made, And your poor workers, you underpaid. Cars and cards were your leisure, Moneymaking was your pleasure. You ate vitamins and grew more fat, With the very sick, you never sat. A pint of blood you never gave, Which could a little baby save. Paradise for you? I cannot tell, Undoubtedly you will dwell in hell. There is no time for you to repent, I'll take your soul for which I am sent. The ending however, is very sad, Eventually the man became mad With a cry, he jumped out of bed, And suddenly, he fell down dead. O Reader! Take moral from here, You never know, your end may be near Change your living and make amends For Paradise, on your deeds depends. you're crying don't you ?

asaaama alaykum wrhmtullahi wbrkatu.. thank you for your replies much appreciated.. May Allah guide us all aamiin..

wow! nice report -lakin qaadka ku badal dikriga ilahey iyo u dagalamida diintada macan, -hesahana ku badalo dhageysiga kalaamka rabbi ee inuugu tala galay inaan ku camal falno, marnaba ha weheshanin acmasha sheydanka, kuna so dhawoow S-O-L.. wadna ku mahadsan tahay salaantaada. baraka allahu fiikum

Intresting.............. Tonight when I am here watching T. V I couldn't pay attention to it, as I usually do. My Mom called me for dinner But I just couldn't eat tonight. My father took me for a walk after dinner. But tonight I wasn't able to enjoy. The wind blew my cufi (prayer cap) away I didn't care to run after it. After all we are going to leave everything here, The only thing we'll take are our good deeds. My friend died last night in his sleep. It could've been me! But am I ready? Ready to meet Allah? Am I ready to face the difficulties of qaber(grave) Will I ever be ready?

oooH! I feel sorry! thank you for sharing with us sis

May Allah guide us all.(ameenn)

Be Thankful! Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire, If you did, what would there be to look forward to? Be thankful when you don't know something For it gives you the opportunity to learn. Be thankful for the difficult times. During those times you grow. Be thankful for your limitations Because they give you opportunities for improvement. Be thankful for each new challenge Because it will build your strength and character. Be thankful for your mistakes They will teach you valuable lessons. Be thankful when you're tired and weary Because it means you've made a difference. It is easy to be thankful for the good things. A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who are also thankful for the setbacks. GRATITUDE can turn a negative into a positive. Find a way to be thankful for your troubles and they can become your blessings. --------May Allah guide us all.(ameen)
