THE FRIDAY KHUTBAH (SERMON)
MANKIND'S NEED FOR ISLAM
by Imâm al-Haram Husayn ibn 'Abdul 'Azîz Aal Sheikh
-------------------------------------------------
All praise is due to Allâh, Lord of all the worlds, may peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allâh, his household and companions.

Fellow Muslims! Fear Allâh in your words and deeds, for “Whoever fears Allâh, and keeps his duty to Him, He will provide him a way out (of every difficulty), and He will provide him from sources he could never imagine.” (At-Talâq 65: 2-3)

Dear Muslims! The greatest blessing that Allâh bestowed on mankind is His sending of Muhammad – peace and blessings be on him – with a pure religion that brings all good to mankind and protects them from all that is evil through its principles of justice, brotherhood, freedom and peace.

Brothers in Islâm! The faith that the Prophet established its pillars is the source of all good and felicity for those who follow its guidance. This faith is the pure tree with ripe and everlasting fruits.

Allâh says, “See you not how Allâh set forth a parable? – A goodly word as a goodly tree, whose root is firmly fixed and its branches (reach) to the sky. Giving its fruits at all times by the leave of its Lord…” (Ibrâheem 14: 24)

Islâm is the treasure of all good for mankind without which they will go astray and live in misery and loss. read more

 
DUA/PRAYER

Subhaanallah wa bi hamdihi laa quwwata illaa billaah maa shaa'allah kaana wa maa lam yasha'a lam yakun a'alamu annallah alaa kulli shayin qadeer wa annallah qad ahaata bikulli shayin ilmaa –

Allah is pure and only from him is all praise. There is no power and force but with his will. Whatever Allah wished has happened and whatever he wishes will surely happen. I have conviction that Allah has power over everything. Verily, Allah's knowledge includes and encompasses everything.

VIRTUE: ONE WILL REMAIN SAFE FROM DIFICULTIES THROUGHOUT THE DAY.

NEWS

A military jury has sentenced the former driver of Osama bin Laden, the al-Qaeda leader, to five and a half years in prison for supporting terrorism. However, the US government has previously argued that it has the right to continue to hold Guantanamo detainees as "enemy combatants".

Police in Mauritania have fired tear gas on about 100 demonstrators calling for the reinstatement of the country's toppled president, Sidi Mohamed Ould Cheikh Abdallahi. The president was taken into custody by members of the military who declared a coup d'etat.

The Indian government is reportedly ready to negotiate in an attempt to quell rising tension in the state of Jammu and Kashmir. The Kashmir valley is currently facing shortages of food, fuel and medicine due to rising Hindu-Muslim tensions, local residents say.

Pakistan's ruling coalition has announced it will begin impeachment proceedings against Pervez Musharraf, the Pakistani president. Asif Ali Zardari, the leader of Pakistan's ruling coalition, made the announcement at a news conference in Islamabad.

The Mail and Guardian has named the person who provided the information alleging that President Thabo Mbeki took a 30 million rand bribe from a German arms compnay. Corruption-busting ex-spy Mhleli "Paul" Madaka was the source. Madaka died in a car accident after speaking out.

RECIPE
ALL BRAN RUSKS
-----------------
Ingredients

2 ½ cups all bran flakes - 1 cup sour milk - ¾ cup sugar – brown or white - 1 tsp baking powder - 500g self raising flour - 250gr butter - 1 egg beaten - 1 tsp salt.

Method
On low heat melt butter and sugar. Beat eggs and sour milk adding sugar. Add to dry ingredients. Pat in oven tray and slice. Bake at 180c for 35 mins. Remove from oven and slice into bars. Return to oven and bake at 100c to dry out.

 
COOKING TIP
When you bake a cake you are instructed to flour the cake pan so the cake won't stick. Instead of doing that save some of the dry cake mix and use that to flour the bottom of the pan. You won't have that white mess on the bottom of your cakes.

A THOUGHT

THE SAGE AND THE PEACOCK
------------------------------------
A sage went out to till his field and saw a peacock busily engaged in destroying his own plumage with his beak. At seeing this insane self-destruction, the sage could not refrain himself and cried out to the peacock to forbear from mutilating himself and spoiling his beauty in so wanton a manner. The peacock then explained to him that the bright plumage which he admired so much was a fruitful source of danger to its unfortunate owner, as it led to his being constantly pursued by hunters, whom he had no strength to contend against. Accordingly decided on ridding himself of it with his own beak, and making himself so ugly that no hunter would in future care to molest him.

The poet proceeds to point out that worldly cleverness and accomplishments and wealth endanger man's spiritual life, like the peacock's plumage. But, nevertheless, they are appointed for our probation, and without such trials there can be no virtue.

THE SMILE

OOPS! I BLEW THAT ONE!
----------------------------

A lawyer defending a man accused of burglary tried this creative defense: "My client merely inserted his arm into the window and removed a few trifling articles. His arm is not himself, and I fail to see how you can punish the whole individual for an offense committed by his limb."

"Well put," the judge replied. "Using your logic, I sentence the defendant's arm to one year's imprisonment. He can accompany it or not, as he chooses."

The defendant smiled. With his lawyer's assistance he detached his artificial limb, laid it on the bench, and walked out.
