PERSONALITY

HAKIM BIN HAZAM RA

History has recorded that he is the only person who was born inside the Kabah itself. Together with a group of friends, his mother had gone inside this ancient House of Allah to inspect it. On that particular day it was open because of a festive occasion. She was pregnant and labour pains suddenly gripped her. She was unable to leave the Kabah. A leather mat was brought to her and she gave birth on it. The child was named Hakim. His father was Hazm who was the son of Khuwaylid. Hakim was therefore the nephew of the Lady Khadijah RA, the daughter of Khuwaylid. Hakim grew up in a wealthy and noble family which enjoyed a high status in Makkan society. He was also an intelligent and well-mannered person who was well respected by his people. He was held in such esteem that he was given the responsibility of the Rifadah which involved giving assistance to the needy and those who had lost their property during the season of pilgrimage. He took this responsibility seriously and would even help needy pilgrims from his own resources.

Hakim was a very close friend of the Prophet, peace be on him, before the latter’s call to prophet hood. Even though he was five years older than the Prophet Sallallahu Alyhi Wa Sallam, he used to spend much time talking to him and enjoying hours of pleasant companionship. Muhammad Sallallahu Alyhi Wa Sallam in his turn felt great affection for Hakim. Their relationship was further strengthened when the Prophet Sallallahu Alyhi Wa Sallam married his aunt, Khadijah bint Khuwaylid RA. What is truly amazing is that in spite of the close friendship between Hakim and the Prophet Sallallahu Alyhi Wa Sallam, Hakim did not become a Muslim until the conquest of Makkah, more than twenty years after the start of the Prophet’s mission. read more

POEM

A moment's reflection,
and nothing more greater comes to mind, than mother's hands folded in Dua.
How I miss those days,
when the morning sun felt shy to creep in through the curtain, Just so he would not disturb her Duas.
How many times I knelt before her,
and kissed those tender hands.
And she would smile.
Special moments....
A moment's reflection,
and nothing more greater comes to mind, than mother's hands folded in Dua.

(Nashreen Kassim)

THE SMILE

The telephone rings in the principal's office at a school.

"Hello, this is Dunn Elementary," answers the principal.
"Hi. Jimmy won't be able to come to school all next week," replies the voice.
"Well, what seems to be the problem with him?"
We are all going on a family vacation," says the voice,
"I hope it is all right."
"I guess that would be fine," says the principal. "May I ask who is calling?"
"Sure. This is my father!"
