Warrior of Light Posted October 9, 2005 Excellent qualities. The problem is when you do come across such characters instead of people appreciating his moral uprighteousness they question him, Is he for REAL??? *Living in crazy times * My prayers for all the Muslims who strive hard to change their moral character to be better role models of Islam.

Haneefah Posted October 11, 2005 I believe striving for the characteristics of the ideal Muslim/Muslimah is the Jihad every Muslim faces, and by far the most challenging. JZK for sharing the list bro. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Muhammad Posted October 15, 2005 Salaams Abdul-Ladiif, this book has been on my wish list for a while, I almost ordered one from online now, then I remembered I saw it on the maktaba on 24, so I may as well get it tomorrow. Insha'Allah. JZK bro, waxay ila tahay, dee waa inaynu mid mid u garaynaa. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Abdulladiif Al-Fiqih Posted October 16, 2005 Yes WOL, such men will be indeed ridiculed and be told that they are living in the past, are close-minded and back-warded. However, they should not be dis-couraged and distracted by such spiteful and unpleasant remarks but be steady fast and please their maker. Patience and preverence And be steadfast in patience, for verily Allah will not suffer the reward of the righteous to perish." (11:115 “Islam started out strange and will go back to being strange, but GOOD TIDINGS to the strangers who rectify what the people have corrupted†or kamaa qaal. Islam goes 3 stages and we are in the final one I believe. Abrar, I believe striving for the characteristics of the ideal Muslim/Muslimah is the Jihad every Muslim faces, and by far the most challenging So true, I wholeheartly agree with that! Muhammad, I actually read the book Ideal Muslimah at the same Maktabah (it become a hang out place for me lately..iskeen nooh). I meant to buy the Ideal Muslim but never got around to it. I will do that idam Allah. Haa sxb waa inaynu mid mid u [check] garaynaa oon listigga dhinac uridnaa Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Muhammad Posted October 17, 2005 Abdulladiif, sheekadaasi waxay i xasuusisay nin aan beri meel ka akhriyey. waxay sheekadu ka dhactay maraykan, nin homeless ah baa waxa uu la adkaysan waayay qabowga winterka, markaas uu wuxuu bilaabay inuu library-ga galo oo dhaxanta kaga dhuunto. taasi waxay ku ka liftay inuu buuwaagta akhristo, waayo reer magaalnimaa loo baahan yahay. dee yaan sheekada ku dheeraan ee wuxuu ninkii bilaabay inuu isagu wax is baro oo maskaxdana barafka ka xoqo. ninkii wuxuu akhristay buwaagta self-development/help, oo wuxuu ka dibna akhriyey buwaagta business ka. wuxuu dabadeedna noqday ninkii millionare! waana true story! taasiba waxay ku tusin sida maskaxda loo maalo!
