The Call of Ibrahim AS

The journey of Hajj begins long before a pilgrim boards a plane or enters the sacred city of Makkah. It begins with a call — a divine call issued thousands of years ago by Nabi Ibrahim عليه السلام. This year, as we reflect on our theme, “Answering the Call of Allah, One Action at a Time,” we are reminded that every act of obedience begins with responding to Allah’s invitation...read more

POEM
Pampoen

Pampoen was a fiesty and energetic cat,
He was, of course, one of those Gingers,
One minute he's here and the next gone,
He's favorite was biting my fingers!

One day he was just out of sorts,
Not eating and just lying about,
Sleeping around every corner,
What would be the turnout?

Leukemia was depleting his little body,
Not a chance of getting better,
The hardest decision I ever had to make,
For my little rambunctious Go-Getter.

You didn't even know, Little One,
While I was stroking your orange fur,
That you would not be here tomorrow,
Never again would I hear your sweet purr.

O Allah, forgive our living and our dead, those present and those absent, our young and our old, our males and our females. O Allah, whom amongst us You keep alive, then let such a life be upon Islam, and whom amongst us You take unto Yourself, then let such a death be upon faith. O Allah, do not deprive us of his reward and do not let us stray after him. [Sunan Abi Dawud] (Aameen)
