HADITH/SAYINGS OF MUHAMMAD
(SALLALLAHU ALAYHI WA SALLAM)
 

Ubadah bin As-Samit (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (Peace Be Upon Him) said, "He who bears witness that there is no true god except Allah, alone having no partner with Him, that Muhammad is His servant and His Messenger, that `Isa (Jesus) is His servant and Messenger and he (Jesus) is His Word which He communicated to Maryam (Mary) and His spirit which He sent to her, that Jannah is true and Hell is true; Allah will make him enter Jannah accepting whatever deeds he accomplished". [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

Another narration in Muslim is: the Messenger of Allah (Peace Be Upon Him) said, "Whosoever testifies that there is no true god except Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, Allah (SWT) saves him from the Fire (of Hell)".

Commentary: This Hadith confirms that all Prophets of Allah were human and thus refutes those who attribute divinity to them and exclude them from the category of human or regard them a part of Allah. This Hadith tells us that the belief that Prophets were men constitutes part of Faith and denial of it is the denial of a part of Faith and amounts to evasion from Tauhid - Oneness of Allah.

Prophet Esa (Jesus, Peace Be Upon Him) has been referred in the Qur'an as "Kalimatullah" (the Word of Allah) (4:171). Meaning is that he was born without being fathered by anyone, only on the express fiat of Allah.

This Hadith shows that a major sin does not cast a Muslim out of the fold of Islam, as is believed by certain deviant sects. Such a person does remain a Muslim and his eligibility for admission into Jannah also remains intact but his admission entirely depends on the pleasure of Allah. He may forgive a sinful Muslim and send him to Jannah even in the initial stage or keep him in Hell for sometime and then send him to Jannah. Thus, when it is said that Muslims are protected against Hell, it means that they will not abide in Hell for ever. It will be a temporary phase varying with his sins. When that punishment comes to an end, or even before it, when Almighty, Allah, wills, he will be removed from Hell to Jannah.

 

"Ek was absoluut verbaas en aangegryp toe ek in Hoofstuk 99 van die Koran sien hoe groot my geloof en goeie dade regtig hoef te wees om vir genade en beloning in aanmerking te kom! Kliek net bietjie hier onder en dan gaan lees jy op die nuwe Afrikaanse Moslem Webtuiste hoe klink dit in die heerlike nuwe vertaling van ons geliefde Koran, getiteld: "Die Boodskap van die Koran." Alle Lof kom Allah toe!

En o ja, kyk ook sommer by: "Wat glo Moslems?": die eerste helfte is al klaar. Onthou om vir al jou Afrikaanse vriende van hierdie Webtuiste te sê: ook die wat nie Moslems is nie en selfs vir hulle wat glad nie meer glo nie... onthou dit is daar vir jou en vir hulle en vir die Plesier van Allah: www.koraninafrikaans.com"

POEM
 

Allah, In Your Love
by Umara Saleem
----------------

I travelled on hand and knee
Upon the scorching unconquerable deserts

When I had my head turned away from You
The famine in my soul, unquenched,
Remained with Your every bounty

There was a ripping of my soul
With my descent away from You
Like the Moon loses a part of itself
As it leaves its rightful place

The sweet Winds carried your name to my body
Falling upon my self made deaf ears

I was Ignorance
A hollow reed

I tried to stomp my connection
But my ever faithful soul
Escaped my treacherous body
And flew to Your keep
My every cell cried Your love

My heart was senseless
Without Your presence

Still, life reverberated in me
Held up by inescapable threads
That will always bind me to You

With Your infinite touch
My thirsty eyes drink sunrises, sunsets
Captured, enraptured by Your beauty

My smiles pay homage to Your greatness
My ears are ever alert
Seeking threads of Your praises
Spoken by Your lovers
Both Man and Nature

 
THE SMILE

Binba replies: "Ja Inba, in uver days we did not have internet, fax, telephone, e-mail, she-mail and all. We used pigeons. Me and Pelu should communicate with pigeons".
Confused Inba asks, "how did you use pigeons Binba?"
"You see Inba", responds Binba,
"I should tie a message to the pigeon's leg and then I fly the pigeon to Pelu's house. But one day I did not tie a message and when the pigeon came to Pelu's house he see no message. Pelu come here very angry and ask me what I think I'm doing. I say Pelu, I give you miss call".
