HADITH/SAYINGS OF MUHAMMAD
(SALLALLAHU ALAYHI WA SALLAM)
 

Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (Peace Be Upon Him) said to Ubayy bin Ka`b (May Allah be pleased with him), "Allah (SWT) has ordered me to recite to you Surat-Al-Baiyyinah (98): `Those who disbelieve ..." Ubayy RA asked, "Did He name me?'' The Messenger of Allah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) replied in the affirmative. Whereupon Ubayy RA began to weep. [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

Commentary: This Hadith highlights the following:
1. The permissibility of crying out of joy when a certain bounty has been bestowed upon one, and out of fear that one fails to show gratefulness to the Bestower of the bounty (i.e., Allah).

2. The superiority of Ubayy bin Ka`b RA and the high position he occupies with regard to his recitation and memorization of the Qur'an.

 
POEM
 
Eternal Seal

by Munaqabah Poet

In this world of havoc and chaos, I may live and strive
As an ummah, this Deen we shall revive.
Sisters in Haijaabs, brothers in thobes
We're human, not mind controlled probes.

It's my religion, my Deen I represent
Walking on the edge, with words of hate, my fate Allah's sent
Women as seen before
not giving in to steam breathing kuffar who roar.

To my destination I don't stand far
In a black sky shines that one star
Our heads down in humility, raising our hands to the sky with sincerity
Proud of my brethren, our religion's past and present

Umar Al-Khattab to Ali ibn Talib
Fighting for our Deen, rising together as a star and crescent.
Queens of Islam forever
Fatimah Zahra - her modest endeavour

It's the time to rise out of our shell
Raised was our Deen with every empire that fell.
Haq- The truth shall forever reveal
This life's not a dream, but a pact - eternal seal

"'n Afrikaanse Moslem Webtuiste en 'n Blog gerig op die Afrikaanssprekende Christen deur S'aad Bekker:

"Ons voel mos nie almal altyd dieselfde nie, is dit nie? Partymaal voel jy goed en ek dalk bietjie af, soos Allah wil. Kliek hier vir die nuutste Dagstukkie om jou aan te moedig. Ons het ook al die Dagstukkies wat ons nou al uitgestuur het saam op een bladsy gesit, juis vir jou gerief. As ek dus 'n Dagstukkie uitstuur en jy voel dis nou nie vandag vir jou bedoel nie, dan kan jy sommer maklik vir jouself al die Dagstukkie-opskrifte gaan deurkyk totdat jy een vind wat jou hart aanraak. Of as iets gebeur wat jou so bietjie van balans af gooi: besoek die Dagstukkies! Jy weet nooit, dalk wil Allah jou juis deur 'n besondere Dagstukkie bemoedig.

E-pos ons by sjbekker@vodamail.co.za as jy die Dagstukkies op jou rekenaar wil ontvang..."

 
THE SMILE
 
Acceptance

The day I knew my in-laws had finally accepted me:

As we pulled into their driveway, my father-in-law was on the phone. "Oh, I have to run," he told the person on the other end. "My daughter-in-law and her husband just arrived."
