THE MESSAGE
WHAT TO DO ABOUT EGYPT?

Recent civilian massacres in Egypt following the early July military coup, ousting the country’s first democratically elected president, Mohamed Morsi asks for us to go beyond gasping in horror or weeping out of sheer helplessness. Blow by blow analytics aside we need to retain a more intelligent and less emotional response to the reasons an all Merciful Lord would allow for such carnage of innocents.

As a point of reference it bears remembering the opening verses (1-4) of Surah 55, Ar-Rahman - The Most Gracious. When Allah Almighty describes Himself as The Merciful, in verse one He qualifies it not as one who prevents death or suffering, rather as follows -- (because He) taught the Quran; created man; & taught man to distinguish. These three determinants encapsulated by the term (al Rahmaan) here indicate that graciousness and merciful isn’t one who will prevent death, hunger, or indiscriminate killing, rather One who has taught man to think judiciously, articulate those very thoughts and act judiciously. Emotional outbursts based on burning bodies and human corpses should therefore play less of a role in our collective responses for it devalues human life to a macabre competitive interplay. read more

FIQH
WUDHU - Ablution

One should not close one's eyes and mouth very tightly. All these things are Makruh and prohibited. The reason for this is that if the mouth and eyes are shut so tightly to the extent that the lips or eye lashes remain dry, then the Wudhu will not be regarded as complete.
