WASHING ONES HANDS FOR MEALS

Salmaan Radiayallahu Anhu narrates: I read in the Taurah that the blessings of food lies in the washing of hands after meals. I mentioned this to Nabi Sallallahu alaihi Wa Sallam and informed Him of what I read in the Taurah. Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam then said: "The blessings (Barakah) of food lies in the washing of hands before and after meals." (Shamaail Tirmizi Pg 12)

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)

Impatient to turn in his term paper, one restless student kept clicking the "Print" command.

The printer started to churn out copy after copy of the kid's ten-page report.

The topic?

"Save Our Trees."
