Understanding the Talbiyah – Part 2

Our theme this year, “Answering the Call of Allah, One Action at a Time,” beautifully captures the essence of Hajj and the journey of every believer. At the heart of Hajj is a powerful declaration recited by millions of pilgrims — the Talbiyah: “Labbayk Allahumma Labbayk.” These are not merely words repeated during a journey; they are a believer’s response to the call of Allah. The Talbiyah is a proclamation of obedience, devotion, humility, and love for the Creator.

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)

RECIPE

Pistachio Lemon cake loaf ( Safeera Kaka)

Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cooking Time: 60 minutes | Total Time: 75 minutes

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup shelled pistachios, finely chopped
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 large eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon pistachio extract
Zest of 1 lemon

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a loaf pan. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, chopped pistachios, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add the vegetable oil, yogurt, milk, vanilla extract, pistachio extract and lemon zest. Mix until well combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. For the glaze, whisk together 1 cup powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons lemon juice until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled loaf and sprinkle with additional chopped pistachios.

A man called 911 and spoke frantically into the phone, "My wife is pregnant and she is only two minutes apart!"

"No, you idiot!" the man shouted.
"This is her husband!"
