      <video:title><![CDATA[Muslims Celebrating Christmas]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[As Muslims our faith teaches us to respect all individuals no matter what their faith and beliefs be. We are commanded to treat every individual with kindness and compassion, and never to belittle the beliefs of another nor the deities that they worship.At the same time, as Muslims we are dedicated and sincere towards our theology &amp; creed and we do not associate or mix our beliefs &amp; celebrations with that of other religions. Hence, as Muslims we do not celebrate the Christian celebration of Christmas.What if our children or non-Muslim neighbours ask us why we don't celebrate Christmas? Or what our beliefs are about Jesus Christ?&nbsp;In this talk, delivered as the second half of a khutbah during the school holidays of the Christmas season, Shaykh Dr. Yasir Qadhi explains the Islamic beliefs regarding Isa b. Maryam (Jesus Christ), and why Muslims should not celebrate the holy days of other faiths.SHARE in the reward by SHARING this video with others, Jazākum Allāh khayr!Can Muslims celebrate Christmas Day? | Can Muslims wish Merry Christmas to the Christians? | Islamic Perspective on Jesus (pbuh) | Status of Mary (pbuh) | Muslim &amp; Christian Unity | People of the Book | Jesus Christ (pbuh)Recorded 27th December 2013]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Why an American Military Christian Who Hated Islam Became Muslim]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[ATHEIST TO BORN-AGAIN CHRISTIAN TO ISLAM
He was Born and raised in the US as a Christian and later converted to Islam after studying religion and searching for the truth.
Growing up in America there are subtle and inherited aspects of Christianity in society but religion is not a major factor in many people&rsquo;s daily life. Since I was very young my grandmother would bring me to church on the weekends and there would be the regular Bible studies as well as summer camps. As I got older I was less involved in church and spent more time with school, sports and so on. I was always in advanced math and sciences courses throughout my school year and had a high interest in them.
During high school I left religion altogether and became an Atheist, especially after discussing some matters with a particular teacher who was a staunch Atheist. I later joined the military when I turned 17 and was still in high school. It was around this time that I renewed my faith and became a born-again Christian. Through reviewing the actual arguments of the Atheists one can see that the argument against belief in God is shallow and while the claim that belief is illogical one sees that it is the only true conclusion for one who reflects on science, nature and reality. It was after this experience that I began reading the Bible daily, praying actively and really being religious.
Then after that summer 9/11 happened. Every where in the news and at every social gathering people were discussing how Muslims believe that the more disbelievers they kill the better their place in Heaven will be and other beliefs that would make one never even want to take an interest in knowing such a &ldquo;savage&rdquo; religion. Many people stop there and develop a blind hate for Islam and I did as well. I was your average white American in the military who had a strong hate against Islam and Muslims. For many months this only became further hardened by the non-stop media coverage of everything evil about Islam.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Jesus was a Muslim Sent by God]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[The Beauty of Islam is that in Islam Muslims don't deny any of the Messengers that God had sent to guide humanity with nor do we make any of them into a God or a part of God. God Almighty is alone Worthy of Worship without any partners or associates.
In Islam you don't need a middle man between you and your Maker, it's a direct dial up to your Creator with no secretary to put you on hold, and that's why Islam continues to be the fastest growing way of life in the world because the more you learn about it the more it makes sense, and Islam provides all the evidence to you the sceptic to prove that it is the truth from God.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Honest Israeli Jew Tells the Real Truth]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Miko Peled was born in Jerusalem into a famous and influential Israeli Zionist family. His father was a famous General in the Israeli Army, of which Miko also served his time. When Miko's niece was killed by Palestinian suicide bombers, you may have expected the family to put Palestinians at fault, but surprisingly they blamed the state of Israel, and their violent torturing and persecution for driving people to such sadness that they would take their own lives.
Through his father's deep knowledge of the Israeli war of terror, together with his own research, Miko Peled ruins the myths surrounding the Israel and Palestine situation, and delivers a truth so damning that many Jews and Israel supporters will not be able to bear it. He reveals facts such as the original expelled Jews are not the ones returning, and they are not their descendants either, covers the double standards regarding the right of return, which doesn't apply to Palestinians, and dispels the myth that there has been a conflict for ages by producing proof that it was peaceful up until 1947 when Israel launched their illegal attacks.
It is a true eye-opener for anyone who has for too long been blinded by the fake misinformation given by the mainstream media, and the truths come straight from the heartland where he has spent many years documenting the real story.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[MUHAMMAD ﷺ AND MADINAH IN THE BIBLE]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[The main proof of Muhammad&rsquo;s ﷺ Prophethood, peace and blessings be upon him, is and forever will be the Miraculous Qur&rsquo;an which was revealed by God to him through the Angel Gabriel. God Almighty, out of His mercy for the Jews and Christians (respectfully referred to in the Qur&rsquo;an as the People of the Book) also provided an additional proof to mankind of his Prophethood. This can be found in their very own scriptures, the Torah and Gospels.
This video discusses the 42nd chapter of the Old Testament Book of Isaiah which clearly foretells the coming of an Arabian Prophet, specifically Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.

      <video:title><![CDATA[If Prophet Muhammad Was Here Today]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Sometimes it's good just to take it back to the basics. How did the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) preach Islam? There is no doubt that mercy and compassion were two of his greatest tools to spread Islam.
In this conversation with Hamza Tzortzis we talk about the mercy Muhammad (pbuh) had for the people around him, whether they were Muslim or not. Truly these examples are plain evidence that the prophet was a mercy to mankind.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[The American Dream & The Purpose of Life]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[The great American dream, in fact the dream of just about everyone among mankind is to live a richer and fuller life of personal happiness and material comfort. A life filled with wealth and pleasures following every desire of the body that the mind can imagine and the heart can yearn, always wanting more to satisfy one's physical needs whilst totally neglecting any aspect of spirituality and closeness to the Creator. ​
Allah (swt) gives a parable of such people in the Qur'an: ​"...he adhered to the earth and followed his own desire. So his example is like that of the dog: if you chase him, he pants, or if you leave him, he (still) pants. That is the example of the people who denied Our signs." ~ [Surat Al-'A`rāf, verse 176]
Indeed, there is no greater humiliation than being enslaved to our own bodily desires like a lowly animal, and there is no greater honour than being a humble worshipper and slave of Allah - the Creator of the Heavens and the earth.
In this thought-provoking and soul-awakening talk Shaykh Dr. Yasir Qadhi enlightens us on having higher goals and rising above our bodily desires.
A talk not to be missed for those seeking higher goals and meaning to life!
This talk was recorded on 24th May 2014 in Detroit, MI]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Michael Decero is from Philadelphia Pennsylvania. he was born into a Sicilian family in South Philadelphia. Born a Roman Catholic Christian.
From the age of 13-17 my life consisted of very few things. Women, Alcohol, Marijuana, crime, and money. I quickly fell into a life of worldly pleasures and comforts. I quit school in the 9th grade and got a full time job doing landscaping. I moved out of my house at 15 years old to live with a friend of mine who I got in trouble with, and we worked together and lived together. I really don't remember a lot of my teenage years because I was always so intoxicated and high. But then right when I would turn 17 something happened!

      <video:title><![CDATA[Forgiveness vs. Retaliation in Islam]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[In one of the most powerful Khutbas of the year, Shaykh Dr. Yasir Qadhi discusses the concept of "An eye for an eye" (ie, retaliation) versus "Turning the other cheek" (ie, forgiveness) in Islam. Dr. Qadhi provides Quranic verses and examples from the life of the Prophet Muhammad pbuh which should help every Muslim take the right course of action.
This is a Khutbah and topic which impacts every single human being dealing with strangers along with loved ones (such as Parents, Spouses, Siblings and children) almost daily. Be sure to LIKE &amp; SHARE.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Jesus Christ - Son of God? The Meaning of "Son of God"]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Jesus Christ - Son of God? (part 1 of 2): The Meaning of &ldquo;Son of God&rdquo;
Description: An examination of the concept that Jesus is the son of God from Christian sources. The meaning of the term &ldquo;Son of God&rdquo; in the Old and New Testament.
By Laurence B. Brown, MD
&ldquo;One of the most striking differences between a cat and a lie is that a cat has only nine lives.&rdquo;
&mdash;Mark Twain, Pudd&rsquo;nhead Wilson&rsquo;s Calendar
Son of God, son of David, or son of Man? Jesus is identified as &ldquo;son of David&rdquo; fourteen times in the New Testament, starting with the very first verse (Matthew 1:1). The Gospel of Luke documents forty-one generations between Jesus and David, while Matthew lists twenty-six. Jesus, a distant descendant, can only wear the &ldquo;son of David&rdquo; title metaphorically. But how then should we understand the title, &ldquo;son of God?&rdquo;
The &ldquo;Trilemma,&rdquo; a common proposal of Christian missionaries, states that &ldquo;Jesus was either a lunatic, a liar, or the Son of God, as he claimed to be.&rdquo; For the sake of argument, let&rsquo;s agree that Jesus was neither a lunatic nor a liar. Let&rsquo;s also agree he was precisely what he claimed to be. But what, exactly, was that? Jesus called himself &ldquo;Son of Man&rdquo; frequently, consistently, perhaps even emphatically, but where did he call himself &ldquo;Son of God?&rdquo;
Let&rsquo;s back up. What does &ldquo;Son of God&rdquo; mean in the first place? No legitimate Christian sect suggests that God took a wife and had a child, and most certainly none conceive that God fathered a child through a human motheroutside of marriage. Furthermore, to suggest that God physically mated with an element of His creation is so far beyond the limits of religious tolerance as to plummet down the sheer cliff of blasphemy, chasing the mythology of the Greeks.
With no rational explanation available within the tenets of Christian doctrine, the only avenue for closure is to claim yet one more doctrinal ...]]></video:description>

He then decided after meeting a Muslim and being so impressed with the Muslims kindness, character and humility that he would look into ISLAM. After looking into Islam he loved the clear and simple concept of only Worshiping the Creator alone and not any of His creations and it's simple message of how to attain peace and purpose in life. He also loved that Islam was fact based and provided so much authentic evidence to prove that it was the truth.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Arch-Priest Speaking About the Muslims Kindness]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Arch-priest speaking about the Muslims kindness towards Christians and their sincere devotion to God.&nbsp;
MOSCOW &ndash; Russia&rsquo;s Orthodox archpriest Dmitri Smirnov has told congregants in his last Sunday sermon that the future belongs to Muslims, praising them for offering help to the needy without repay, unlike the Christians in this land. ( Note:This is what the Christian Archpriest said our intention is in no way to hurt the feelings of any Christian or anyone else we are just reporting the story).
&ldquo;In fact, during their [Muslim] festivals, the people are scared to enter their areas (in Moscow) because tens of thousands of young Muslim men fall down on their knees and worship God,&rdquo; World Bulletin quoted the archpriest on Wednesday, September 10.
&ldquo;Where have you seen that many Orthodox men? You cannot see them anywhere at any time,' he added.
Islam in Russia
The archpriest comments came as he was recalling an experience shared with him by an elderly woman in his congregation.
According to the woman, Muslim drivers never took money when taking her to church, whereas Christian drivers were only interested in making money.
&ldquo;A child doesn't take money from his mother, especially if she is going to pray,&rdquo; the Archpriest said, quoting Muslim drivers, adding that Christian drivers would say &ldquo;This is my job.&rdquo;
&ldquo;A Muslim bringing you to Easter or anything else is closer to the Messiah (Jesus Christ) than a Christian who wants money,&rdquo; Smirnov told his congregation, &ldquo;because the Christian driver has no mercy, pity or kindness in his heart.&rdquo;
&ldquo;A Muslim is not interested in gaining benefit from the old woman. Rather, the Muslim offers to take her around, take her to the landrette, pay her bills, take her to the market, carry her bags up to her floor or to her elevator (if she has one),&rdquo; he said.
Smirnov went on to say: &ldquo;For this reason, the future will belong to the Muslims. The future is theirs. They will plough this land, because...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Shaykh Yasir Qadhi represents a new generation of Muslim scholars and leaders. However, they face many of the same challenges that have vexed an earlier generation of Muslim activists and intellectuals. Foremost among these, perhaps, is how to harness the tremendous potential of the Muslim youth for positive action. In this lecture, Sh. Qadhi addresses this issue touching on topics ranging from building faith in the hearts of those youth who have strayed away from the community, to entering compassion into the hearts of those who are attracted to calls for nihilistic violence.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Extremism in Islam: Kharijism to ISIS - A Brief Historical Analysis]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[The Islamic Caliphate of ISIS - a rightly guided Islamic leadership or a heretical group of misguided individuals?
They claim to stand up in the face of oppression and defend the Muslims &amp; the values of Islam, yet many believe they do more harm to Islam by killing innocent civilians, and are reminiscent of the 'Kharijites' of old whom the Prophet (SAW) predicted would arise from the Muslim Ummah, interpreting their own version of Islam and taking things to an extreme.
In this critical historical analysis, Shaykh Dr. Yasir Qadhi looks through the lens of the past glancing into the future to observe the birth of extremism in Islam in our times, analyzing the characteristics and fanatical interpretation of the text by extremist groups to justify destruction and killings.
This Friday sermon is an absolute *must* to listen to for every Muslim in light of today's sensitive circumstances.
Recorded on 22nd August 2014]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[The "Kill Them Where You Find Them" Verse Explained]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Surah al-Baqarah 2:191-193
191. And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah is worse than killing. And fight not with them at Al-Masjid-al-Haram (the sanctuary at Makkah), unless they (first) fight you there. But if they attack you, then kill them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers.
192. But if they cease, then Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
193. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and worshiping of others along with Allah) and (all and every kind of) worship is for Allah (Alone). But if they cease, let there be no transgression except against Az-Zalimun (the polytheists, and wrong-doers, etc.)]]></video:description>

16. And indeed We have created man, and We know what his ownself whispers to him. And We are nearer to him than his jugular vein (by Our Knowledge).
17. (Remember!) that the two receivers (recording angels) receive (each human being after he or she has attained the age of puberty), one sitting on the right and one on the left (to note his or her actions) .
18. Not a word does he (or she) utter, but there is a watcher by him ready (to record it).
19. And the stupor of death will come in truth: "This is what you have been avoiding!"
20. And the Trumpet will be blown, that will be the Day whereof warning (had been given) (i.e. the Day of Resurrection).
21. And every person will come forth along with an (angel) to drive (him), and an (angel) to bear witness.
22. (It will be said to the sinners): "Indeed you were heedless of this, now We have removed your covering, and sharp is your sight this Day!"
23. And his companion (angel) will say: "Here is (this Record) ready with me!"
24. (And it will be said): "Both of you throw (Order from Allah to the two angels) into Hell, every stubborn disbeliever (in the Oneness of Allah, in His Messengers, etc.).
25. "Hinderer of good, transgressor, doubter,
26. "Who set up another ilah (god) with Allah, then (both of you) cast him in the severe torment."
27. His companion (Satan devil)] will say: "Our Lord! I did not push him to transgress, (in disbelief, oppression, and evil deeds) but he was himself in error far astray."
28. Allah will say: "Dispute not in front of Me, I had already, in advance, sent you the threat.
29. The Sentence that comes from Me cannot be changed, and I am not unjust (to the least) to the slaves."
30. On the Day when We will say to Hell: "Are you filled?" It will say: "Are there any more (to come)?"
31. And Paradise will be brought near to the Muttaqun (pious - see V.2:2) not far off.

      <video:title><![CDATA[Problematic Trends in Regards to Seeking Marriage in Islam]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[A very huge problem today is that a great number of Muslims have been Affected by the dating, boy-friend/girl-friend test drive epidemic.
We know that this has become the normal thing in today's society but as Muslims we strive to hold on to a higher level of morality and purity and we look to make all of our affairs pleasing to our Creator and Marriage in ISLAM is a completion of half your Deen so Muslims should be very serious about staying away from the evil pitfalls that lead to a broken society which mainly steams from the evil of "Zina"( Immorality,fornication,screwing around, adultery).
In this weeks show we will be discussing some of the obstacles Muslims face when they finally get serious and are on a Mission to get Married. Some of the points covered are:
1. Problematic Trends in regards to seeking marriage
2. Parents forcing young mature adults to wait too long, and they end up missing out on good opportunities. They sometimes focus on everything other than Deen &amp; character.
3. Women - sometimes want to finish their studies and career and then get married, but pass their prime in the process. They sometimes have very high demands and an unrealistic romantic picture from the movies which is impractical.
4. Men - sometimes are ready, but shy away from the responsibility of marriage, and want to lead an independent life, and wait too long. Sometimes men keep shopping forever, trying to make sure they don't commit to one girl too quickly, only to find someone better later, and having regrets.
All of this and more on this weeks exciting show.]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[From the 20th century many Jihadist movements have evolved. Movements such as Al-Gamat al-Islamiya, Jamaat Al-Takfir Wa'l-Hijrah, Al-Qaeda, Al-Shabaab, Boko Haram, ISIL / ISIS, Jabhat al-Nusra and many more. We have heard the names Osama bin Laden, Anwar al-Awlaki, Ayman al-Zawahiri, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, but who are these people? From the western media we hear them being called terrorists. From some Muslims we hear them being called the true Mujahideen. But other Muslims call them extremists and followers of the sect called Khawarij. Join Shaykh Dr. Yasir Qadhi in this amazing lecture and find out about The Jihadist Movements of the 20th Century.]]></video:description>

Here are some tips to make your Eid beneficial:On this joyous occasion of the coming of Eid, lets not forget that as we celebrate, we worship. Eid is a day of prayer, remembrance, and establishing the ties of kinship/friendship. Its also a day of reflection. So here are a few tips to make your Eid a spiritually enriching experience:1. Make it a point to get to the prayer on time2. Make it a point to listen to the khutbah (especially if you're coming to the salah in Garland so you don't distract me3. Remember Allah on the way to the Eid prayer with the takbeerat of Eid. Try to encourage your family to do the same. It is simply awesome to have a car rumbling with takbeerat on the way to Eid and the kids will love having a halal excuse to scream.4. Go home using a different route as per the sunnah. This is a reflection of you coming in to Ramadan and leaving as a new person.5. Take some sweets to your neighbors and explain to them why you&rsquo;re celebrating. This is a crucial dawah opportunity as well as a means of fulfilling their essential rights upon us as neighbors which is a form of worship.6. Don&rsquo;t spoil your Ramadan by celebrating Eid in impermissible ways. Consider deeply the things that you wear, the parties you go to, etc. It would be a travesty to incur the anger of Allah upon us right after the month of forgiveness.7.

      <video:title><![CDATA[Son of the General]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[As an Israeli that was raised on the Zionist ideal of a Jewish state, I know how hard it is for many Jews and Palestinians to let go of the dream of having a state that is exclusively &ldquo;our own.&rdquo; The articles, the stories and the pictures in this blog are meant to make a single point: For the good of both nations, the Separation Wall must come down, the Israeli control over the lives of Palestinians must be defied so that a secular democracy where all Israelis and Palestinian live as equals be established in our shared homeland.
The State of Israel today is governed in a way that cannot be sustained, where the two nations it governs, Israelis and
Palestinians are used and abused and it is a state of affairs that should not be tolerated: Half of the population is governed by a radical Zionist regime that sees the struggle for control over the land as a zero sum game, and the other half of the population is governed by the security forces of this Zionist regime; one nation ruling over another while controlling of the land and its resources. It is a reality where half of the population lives in what it thinks is a Western democracy while keeping the other half imprisoned by a ruthless defense apparatus that is becoming more violent by the day.
In my book, &ldquo;The General&rsquo;s Son, Journey of an Israeli in Palestine&rdquo; I show how it is that the son of an Israeli General and a staunch Zionist came to these realizations. Realizing that your side of the story is not the only side to the story, and then accepting rather than fighting this realization and in the end finding that the story upon which I was raised, was a lie &ndash; now that is an interesting journey.]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah. Al-Masjid al-Aqsa (in Jerusalem) was the first of the two qiblahs, and is one of the three mosques to which people may travel for the purpose of worship. And it was said that it was built by Sulaymaan (peace be upon him), as stated in Sunan al-Nasaa&rsquo;i (693) and classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Nasaa&rsquo;i. And it was said that it existed before Sulaymaan (peace be upon him) and that Sulaymaan rebuilt it; this is based on the evidence narrated in al-Saheehayn from Abu Dharr (may Allaah be pleased with him) who said: &ldquo;I said, &lsquo;O Messenger of Allaah, which mosque was built on earth first?&rsquo; He said, &lsquo;Al-Masjid al-Haraam [in Makkah].&rsquo; I said, &lsquo;Then which?&rsquo; He said, &lsquo;Al-Masjid al-Aqsa.&rsquo; I said, &lsquo;How much time was there between them?&rsquo; He said, &lsquo;Forty years. So wherever you are when the time for prayer comes, pray, for that is the best thing to do.&rsquo;&rdquo;
Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 3366; Muslim, 520.
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) was taken on the Night Journey (isra&rsquo;) to Bayt al-Maqdis (Jerusalem), where he led the Prophets in prayer in this blessed mosque.
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Glorified (and Exalted) be He (Allaah) [above all that (evil) they associate with Him]
Who took His slave (Muhammad) for a journey by night from Al-Masjid Al-Haraam (at Makkah) to Al-Masjid Al-Aqsaa (in Jerusalem), the neighbourhood whereof We have blessed, in order that We might show him (Muhammad) of Our Ayaat (proofs, evidences, lessons, signs, etc.). Verily, He is the All-Hearer, the All-Seer&rdquo;
[al-Isra&rsquo; 17:1]
The Dome of the Rock was built by the caliph &lsquo;Abd al-Malik ibn Marwaan in 72 AH.
It says in al-Mawsoo&rsquo;ah al-Filasteeniyyah (4/203): &ldquo;The name al-Masjid al-Aqsa was historically applied to the entire sanctuary (al-Haram al-Shareef) and the buildings in it, the most important of which is the Dome of the Rock which was built by &ls...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)
In addition, Islam is the only religion prevailing over all other religions. Allah states in the Holy Qur&rsquo;an :
&ldquo;To thee We sent the Scripture in the truth, confirming the scripture that came be...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Ultimate Dua (The Ramadhan Witr Dua)]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Please I need duaae qunoot which is read in the witr prayer.Praise be to Allaah. Firstly:
Du&rsquo;a&rsquo; al-Qunoot is recited in the last rak&rsquo;ah of Witr prayer, after bowing, but if one recites it before bowing it doesn&rsquo;t matter. But reciting it after bowing is better.
Shaykh al-Islam [Ibn Taymiyah] said in Majmoo&rsquo; al-Fataawa (23/100):
With regard to qunoot: there are two extreme views and one middle (or moderate) view. Some say that qunoot should only be recited before bowing and some say that it should only be recited after bowing. The fuqaha&rsquo; among the scholars of hadeeth, such as Ahmad and others, say that both are allowed, because both are mentioned in the saheeh Sunnah, but they preferred reciting qunoot after bowing because this is mentioned more often.
Raising the hands is mentioned in a saheeh report from &lsquo;Umar (may Allaah be pleased with him), as was narrated by al-Bayhaqi in a report which he classed as saheeh (2/210).
The worshipper should raise his hands to chest height and no more, because this du&rsquo;aa&rsquo; is not a du&rsquo;aa&rsquo; of supplication in which a person needs to raise his hands high. Rather it is a du&rsquo;aa&rsquo; of hope in which a person holds out his palms towards heaven&hellip; The apparent meaning of the scholar&rsquo;s words is that the worshipper should hold his hands close together like a beggar who asks someone else to give him something.
It is better not to recite qunoot in witr all the time, rather it should be done sometimes, because there is no evidence that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) did it all the time. But he taught al-Hasan ibn &lsquo;Ali (may Allaah be pleased with him) a du&rsquo;aa&rsquo; to recite in qunoot al-witr, as will be quoted below.
Secondly:
The du&rsquo;aa&rsquo; of qunoot was narrated by Abu Dawood (1425), al-Tirmidhi (464), and al-Nasaa&rsquo;i (1746) from al-Hasan ibn &lsquo;Ali (may Allaah be pleased with him) who said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and ble...]]></video:description>

61. Blessed be He Who has placed in the heaven big stars, and has placed therein a great lamp (sun), and a moon giving light.
62. And He it is Who has put the night and the day in succession, for such who desires to remember or desires to show his gratitude.
63. And the slaves of the Most Beneficent (Allah) are those who walk on the earth in humility and sedateness, and when the foolish address them (with bad words) they reply back with mild words of gentleness.
64. And those who spend the night before their Lord, prostrate and standing.
65. And those who say: "Our Lord! Avert from us the torment of Hell. Verily! Its torment is ever an inseparable, permanent punishment."
66. Evil indeed it (Hell) is as an abode and as a place to dwell.
67. And those, who, when they spend, are neither extravagant nor niggardly, but hold a medium (way) between those (extremes).
68. And those who invoke not any other ilah (god) along with Allah, nor kill such life as Allah has forbidden, except for just cause, nor commit illegal sexual intercourse and whoever does this shall receive the punishment.
69. The torment will be doubled to him on the Day of Resurrection, and he will abide therein in disgrace;
70. Except those who repent and believe (in Islamic Monotheism), and do righteous deeds, for those, Allah will change their sins into good deeds, and Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Ramadhan Moon Sighting Differences]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Why are the Muslims not united in their fasting even though there is only one new moon for Ramadaan? In the past there was the excuse of there being no media or means of communication.Praise be to Allaah.Firstly:
The most likely reason for the differences in the start of the fast from one country to another is the difference in sighting the new moon. Such differences are well known and it makes sense that there are such differences.
Based on this, it is not possible to expect all the Muslims to start fasting at the same time, because this would mean that some of them were starting to fast before the new moon had been sighted and even before it had appeared.
Shaykh Ibn &lsquo;Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) was asked about those who call for the ummah to be united in fasting and for the moon sighting to be based on its sighting in Makkah. He said:
This is impossible from an astronomical point of view, because the sighting of the new moon, as Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah said, differs, according to the scientists who are well-versed in this field. Because it differs, then each country should have its own ruling, according to the reports and according to science.
The evidence from reports is the verse in which Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;So whoever of you sights (the crescent on the first night of) the month (of Ramadan i.e. is present at his home), he must observe Sawm (fasts) that month&rdquo;
[al-Baqarah 2:185]
If it so happens that people in a remote region of the world do not see the new moon whereas the people of Makkah do see it, then how can the words of this verse apply to those who have not seen the new moon? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Fast when you see it and stop fasting when you see it.&rdquo; (Agreed upon). So if the people of Makkah, for example, see it, then how can we expect the people of Pakistan and countries further east to start fasting, when we know that that the new moon has not yet appeared in their region, and the ...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[The Gift Of Gratitude - Emotional]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Is it permissible for me to say: All praise and thanks be to Allah, and thanks to my parents. According to Allah&rsquo;s verse: &ldquo;Show gratitude to Me and to thy parents: to Me is (thy final) goal&rdquo;.Praise be to AllahHonouring one&rsquo;s parents is one of the greatest means of drawing close to Allah and one of the best acts of obedience. It is an important right that they are given in Islamic sharee&rsquo;ah (law), so much so that Allah has mentioned obedience to parents alongside obedience to Him, and their rights alongside His rights, in more than one place.
Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And We have enjoined on man (to be dutiful and good) to his parents. His mother bore him in weakness and hardship upon weakness and hardship, and his weaning is in two years - give thanks to Me and to your parents. Unto Me is the final destination.&rdquo; [31:14].
Al-Qurtubi (may Allah have mercy on him) said in his Tafseer (exegesis): The scholars said: Those who are most deserving of gratitude, kindness, honour and obedience after the Creator are those whom Allah mentions kindness towards alongside worship, obedience and gratitude to Him; namely one&rsquo;s parents. Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Give thanks to Me and to your parents.&rdquo; [31:14].
It was narrated that &lsquo;Abd-Allah ibn &lsquo;Amr ibn al-&lsquo;As (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: &ldquo;The Lord is pleased when the parents are pleased and He is angry when the parents are angry.&rdquo; Al-Albani said: It is hasan li ghayrihi (sound because of corroborating evidence).
Clearly expressing gratitude to the parents and acknowledging their virtue is undoubtedly included in the meaning of the verse, but the verse should not be understood as meaning this only, rather what is meant by giving thanks here is more general than that: a person should fulfil the rights that his Lord has over him in his heart and his words as well as his phy...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Cesar Accepts Islam at the World Cup!]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[In Sao Paulo, Cesar, who was very interested in Islam had been coming to speak to us at the dawah table every day during the world cup.
He accepted all the teachings of Islam, that there is a Creator and He is One. That this Creator has sent us guidance on how to live our lives in accordance with His will and that that guidance is the Qur'an. That the Prophet Muhammed upon whom be peace is the last and final prophet who was sent as a guide, a messenger to bring all people to worship God alone, the same message of all the prophets of the past, Abraham, Moses, Jesus.
Cesar then took that decision to embrace Islam, to be one who submits himself to God, to be Muslim.]]></video:description>

Islam means submission to the Creator alone. Islam is the belief that there is only One God, whose proper name is Allah, which means the God.
Islam is the same message given to all the prophets, from Adam, Noah, Moses, Abraham, Jesus, and finally to the Prophet Muhammad, the last messenger (peace and blessings be upon them). They all brought the same message: worship only God, and stop worshiping human beings and their ideas.
Allah is the name of God in Arabic, Arab Christians use the word Allah.
Become a Muslim(Any Peaceful person who submits to the Creator alone) Now
If you believe there is only One God who should be worshiped, and no one/nothing else has that right but Him, and you believe Muhammad, peace be upon him, was a messenger who brought the same message as all the prophets before him, then you are basically a Muslim.
Islam means submission to the Creator alone. Islam is the belief that there is only One God, whose proper name is Allah, which means the God.

      <video:title><![CDATA[How to Give Dawah]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[How should we call people to Islam?
Praise be to Allaah.
Allaah created man and caused him to dwell on this earth, but He did not forsake him. Rather He gave him what he needs of food, drink and clothing, and revealed to him throughout the ages a path to follow and be guided by. The interests and happiness of mankind at every time and in every place depend upon following the path of Allaah and rejecting all others:
&ldquo;And verily, this (i.e. Allaah&rsquo;s Commandments mentioned in the above two Verses 151 and 152) is My straight path, so follow it, and follow not (other) paths, for they will separate you away from His path. This He has ordained for you that you may become Al-Muttaqoon (the pious)&rdquo;[al-An&rsquo;aam 6:153 &ndash; interpretation of the meaning]
Islam is the last of the heavenly religions and the Qur&rsquo;aan is the last of the heavenly Books. Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) is the last of the Prophets and Messengers. Allaah commanded him to convey this religion to all of mankind:
&ldquo;this Qur&rsquo;aan has been revealed to me that I may therewith warn you and whomsoever it may reach&rdquo;[al-An&rsquo;aam 6:18]
Allaah sent His Messenger Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) with Islam to all of mankind, as Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Say (O Muhammad): &lsquo;O mankind! Verily, I am sent to you all as the Messenger of Allaah&rsquo;&rdquo;[al-A&rsquo;raaf 7:158]
Da&rsquo;wah or calling others to Islam is the best of deeds, because it involves guiding people to the Straight Path and to that which will bring them happiness in this world and in the Hereafter:
&ldquo;And who is better in speech than he who [says: &lsquo;My Lord is Allaah (believes in His Oneness),&rsquo; and then stands firm (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allaah&rsquo;s (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: &lsquo;I am one of the Muslims.&rsquo;&rdquo;[Fussilat 41:33 &ndash; interpretation of the meaning]

      <video:title><![CDATA[How To Focus In Salah]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah. Evil whispers during prayer and at other times come from the Shaytaan, who is keen to misguide the Muslim and deprive him of good and keep it far away from him. One of the Sahaabah complained to the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) about waswaas during prayer, and he said: &ldquo;The Shaytaan comes between me and my prayers and my recitation, confusing me therein.&rdquo; The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;That is a devil called Khanzab. If he affects you seek refuge in Allah from him and spit drily to your left three times.&rdquo; He [the Sahaabi] said, I did that and Allaah took him away from me.
(Narrated by Muslim, 2203)
Proper focus (khushoo&rsquo;) is the essence of prayer. Prayer without proper focus is like a body without a soul. The following are two of the things that help one to develop the proper focus:
1 &ndash; Striving to think about what you are saying and doing, pondering the meanings of the Qur&rsquo;aan, dhikr (words of remembrance) and du&rsquo;aa&rsquo;s (supplications) that you are reciting; bearing in mind that you are conversing with Allaah as if you can see Him. For when the worshipper stands to pray, he is speaking to his Lord, and ihsaan means worshipping Allaah as if you are seeing Him, and knowing that even though you cannot see Him, He sees you. Every time a person experiences the sweetness of prayer, he will be more inclined to do it. This depends of the strength of one's faith &ndash; and there are many means of strengthening one&rsquo;s faith. Hence the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, &ldquo;Of the things of your world, women and perfume have been made dear to me, and my joy is in prayer.&rdquo; According to another hadeeth he said, &ldquo;Let us relax, O Bilal, with prayer,&rdquo; and he did not say, Give us a break from it.
2 &ndash; Striving to ward off the things that may distract you during prayer, namely thinking about things that are irrelevant or di...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Is There Racism In Islam?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What does Islam say about racial discrimination?Praise be to Allaah.
All people are the descendants of one man and one woman, believer and kaafir, black and white, Arab and non-Arab, rich and poor, noble and lowly.
Islam does not pay attention to differences in colour, race or lineage. All people come from Adam, and Adam was created from dust. In Islam, differentiation between people is based on faith (eemaan) and piety (taqwaa), by doing that which Allaah has enjoined and avoiding that which Allaah has prohibited. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;O mankind! We have created you from a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that you may know one another. Verily, the most honourable of you with Allaah is that (believer) who has At-Taqwa [i.e. he is one of the Muttaqoon (the pious)]. Verily, Allaah is All-Knowing, All Aware&rdquo;
[al-Hujuraat 49:13]
Islam regards all people as equal as far as rights and duties are concerned People are equal before the law (sharee&rsquo;ah), as Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Whoever works righteousness &mdash; whether male or female &mdash; while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to him We will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and We shall pay them certainly a reward in proportion to the best of what they used to do (i.e. Paradise in the Hereafter)&rdquo; [al-Nahl 16:97]
Faith, truthfulness and piety all lead to Paradise, which is the right of the one who acquires these attributes, even if he is one of the weakest or lowliest of people. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And whosoever believes in Allaah and performs righteous good deeds, He will admit him into Gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise) to dwell therein forever. Allaah has indeed granted for him an excellent provision&rdquo; [al-Talaaq 65:11]
Kufr, arrogance and oppression all lead to Hell, even if the one who does these things is one of the richest or noblest of p...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Put it to the test! The Quran is the verbatim speech of the Creator of mankind and there has never been any book like this book "The Quran". The Quran is a Living Miracle and the only way that you'll truly come to know this is if you sincerely put it to the test.
If you say that it's not than take up the challenge because talk is cheap.
Very important points:
1. The Quran explicitly says it's from your Creator and the Creator of all of mankind and the universe and everything in it.
2. There is no other book around that the Creator is speaking directly to human-beings and is making these types of Bold claims.
3. There is no other book around that claims it's from the Creator as the Quran does and than challenges you to try and disprove it if you think other wise. It also tells you what you can do to try and disprove it, what you can do to put it to the test!.
What are you waiting for, Put it to the test!!! Open your heart and mind and give it a try, you have nothing to lose (except your hereafter) but everything to gain!]]></video:description>

ISLAM will not only bring peace and happiness into their lives for it is the truth from God but it would also support them by allowing them to express their natural feelings in a legal and moral way and still be right with God.
Islam would allow them to have a bigger family and it wouldn't restrict or force them into Monogamy something that most likely they can never live up to that's why we end up seeing all of them having mistresses, girl friends and prostitutes on the side, which then results in broken homes, broken families and eventually broken societies. We'll be discussing all this and more on this weeks Show.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Porn Will Violate Your Soul]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[I have a friend who uses the internet and goes to pornographic websites. What is the shar&rsquo;i ruling on that, and how can I help him to keep away from such things?.Praise be to Allaah. It is not permissible to look at pornographic pictures that show the charms of women, either on internet web sites or in newspapers or magazines etc. That is because looking at them is a means of enjoying them and knowing the beauty of the woman in the picture.
This may also be a means that leads to something haraam, so it is also regarded as haraam, because the means come under the same rulings as the ends.
Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa&rsquo;imah, 2424.
Many people take the matter of looking at pictures of non-mahram women lightly, on the grounds that these are just pictures and are not real. But this is a very serious matter, because it inevitably tempts a man to try to look at the woman directly. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Tell the believing men to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts). That is purer for them&rdquo;
[al-Noor 24:30]
Majmoo&rsquo; Fataawa wa Rasaa&rsquo;il Ibn &lsquo;Uthaymeen, 1/268 You can help your friend to keep away from these things by always advising him and making him fear Allaah, and reminding him that Allaah is always watching him and that nothing is hidden from Him. And remind him of the blessings that Allaah has bestowed upon him, such as giving him eyes with which to see things that will benefit him, and He has forbidden him to use them to look at things that He has forbidden. Remind him that Allaah will question him about that, hence Allaah concludes the verse referred to above with the words (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Verily, Allaah is All-Aware of what they do&rdquo;
[al-Noor 24:30]
And Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Verily, the hearing, and the sight, and the heart of each of those ones will be questioned (by Allaah)&rdquo;
[al-Isra&rsquo; 17:36]
If a wise man thi...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Don't Judge Me - How to Give Advice]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What advice can you give to the Muslims in the west in the current situation in which the Muslim ummah finds itself? How can we fulfil our Islamic duties and please Allaah?.Praise be to Allaah. 1- Our advice to our Muslim brothers who are living in the west &ndash; now &ndash; is the same as the advice that Allaah gave to the first and the last, which is to fear Allaah and to do that which is enjoined by Allaah and His Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), and to avoid that which is forbidden by Allaah and His Messenger.
2- Do not stay there, except for those of you who are forced to stay or who need to do so, because they have no other place to go, or because they are sick and need treatment, or they are active in da&rsquo;wah, calling people to Islam; or if you are natives of that land and can practise your religion openly. You know your situation better than we do and you have seen for yourselves how the west has shown its true colours with regard to so-called religious freedom and freedom of self-expression. That has become permissible for all religions except Islam, and for all people except the Muslims; the heads of some of these states have even dared to issue laws forbidding Muslim women to wear hijab in public schools.
3- If you have no alternative but to stay in those countries, then strive not to raise your children there; send them to a Muslim country, to their families or to Islamic centres that will take care of them and educate them. No matter how great the corruption in Muslim countries, it cannot compare to the kufr and permissiveness that exists in the west, except in a few rare cases.
4- You have to present a correct image of Islam by adhering to its rituals, morals and ways. Many countries were won over by Muslim merchants who dealt in a good and kind manner with people, so that the gave a good image of Islam and countries became Muslim at their hands whose inhabitants number in the tens of millions.
5- It is not permissible for you to look for ward to dilute the ruling...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)
In addition, Islam is the only religion prevailing over all other religions. Allah states in the Holy Qur&rsquo;an :
&ldquo;To thee We sent the Scripture in the truth, confirming the scripture that came be...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA["Ayyoob (عليه السلام&lrm;)...Ayyoob (عليه السلام&lrm;), he had 14 children...and he had great health and wealth, everybody loved him. One day, after 80 years, Allah (سبحانه و تعالى) took away all of his 14 children...one by one...then He took away his wealth...then He took away his health until the narration says that his skin used to fall off his body until you could see his muscles and his bones, and he is still alive, breathing. Not only that, the people began to say if this man was a good person, Allah wouldn't have done this to him...and so he lost his close friends. One day, his wife came and said: "Ya Ayyoob (عليه السلام&lrm;)! Isn't it enough now?! Can't you ask Allah to get rid of this? It's enough! We've gone through too much!" Ayyoob (عليه السلام&lrm;) then said: "My wife, how long did Allah (سبحانه و تعالى) give me blessings for?" She said: "80 years or so." He said: "I'm too shy to ask Allah (سبحانه و تعالى) to cure me, yet, until 80 years of this time has gone as well. He has given me so much." It was after 7 years, however, when he saw his wife resorted to taking from her hair and selling it. Then he said: "Rabbi..." Even look at the way the Prophet (عليه السلام&lrm;), he asked Allah (سبحانه و تعالى) to cure him. He didn't say, "O Allah! Cure me! O Allah! You have harmed me! O Allah! You brought the sickness! Take it away from me!" No! No! No!...He said: "O my Lord! Harm has afflicted me." He didn't even attribute it to Allah (سبحانه و تعالى)...because when harm comes to a Muslim, and Allah (سبحانه و تعالى) afflicts you with some kind of hardship, it's actually good for you...I'm gonna say the hadith in a minute...وَأَنتَ أَرْحَمُ الرَّاحِمِين - "Wa Anta Arhamurrahimeen!" "And You are the Most Merciful!" Allah says: فَاسْتَجَبْنَا لَهُ فَكَشَفْنَا مَا بِهِ مِن ضُرٍّ ۖ وَآتَيْنَاهُ أَهْلَ...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[The Boy and the Jinn]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Who are the jinn? How did Allaah create them?Praise be to Allaah.
The jinn are part of the creation of Allaah. He created them from fire before He created Adam, as Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And indeed, We created man from dried (sounding) clay of altered mud.
And the jinn, We created aforetime from the smokeless flame of fire&rdquo;
[al-Hijr 15:26-27]
Just as Adam had descendents, so Iblees had descendents too, as Allaah says of Iblees (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Will you then take him (Iblees) and his offspring as protectors and helpers rather than Me while they are enemies to you? What an evil is the exchange for the Zaalimoon (polytheists, and wrongdoers, etc)&rdquo;
[al-Kahf 18:50]
Allaah created the jinn and mankind to worship Him. Whoever obeys Him will enter Paradise and whoever disobeys Him will enter Hell:
&ldquo;And I (Allaah) created not the jinn and mankind except that they should worship Me (Alone).
I seek not any provision from them (i.e. provision for themselves or for My creatures) nor do I ask that they should feed Me (i.e. feed themselves or My creatures).
Verily, Allaah is the All Provider, Owner of Power, the Most Strong&rdquo;
[al-Dhaariyaat 51:56 &ndash; interpretation]
All of the jinn, like mankind, are accountable. Among them there are believers and kaafirs, those who obey Allaah and those who disobey Him, as Allaah tells us that they said:
&ldquo;&lsquo;There are among us some that are righteous, and some the contrary; we are groups having different ways (religious sects)&rsquo;&rdquo;
[al-Jinn 72:11 &ndash; interpretation of the meaning]
The jinn will be rewarded or punished in the Hereafter just like mankind. Allaah tells us that they said:
&ldquo;&lsquo;And of us some are Muslims (who have submitted to Allaah, after listening to this Qur&rsquo;aan), and of us some are Al-Qaasitoon (disbelievers those who have deviated from the Right Path)&rsquo;. And whosoever has embraced Islam (i.e. has become a Muslim by submitting to Allaah)...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Islam and Homosexuality]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Could you please tell me that why is a homosexuality a sin in islam? I know it&rsquo;s a great sin but my question is why? I haven't able to find the real reason why? So، if you could can you also tell me that what Allah has says in Quran or in hadith about it. Please let me know as soon as possible.Praise be to Allaah. The Muslim should not doubt, even for an instant, that what Allaah has prescribed is wise. He should know that there is great wisdom in what Allaah has commanded and what He has forbidden; it is the straight path and is the only way in which man can be safe and at peace, protecting his honour, his mind and his health, in accordance with the natural disposition (fitrah) with which Allaah has created man.
Some heretics have tried to attack Islam and its rulings; they have denounced divorce and plural marriage and permitted alcohol. Those who look at the state of their societies will see the state of misery which those societies have reached.
When they rejected divorce, murder took its place. When they rejected plural marriage, men started to take mistresses instead. When they allowed alcohol, all kinds of shameful and immoral actions became widespread.
They (gays and lesbians) both go against the natural disposition (fitrah) which Allaah has created in mankind &ndash; and also in animals &ndash; whereby the male is inclined towards the female, and vice versa.Whoever goes against that goes against the natural disposition of mankind, the fitrah.
The spread of homosexuality has caused man diseases which neither the east nor the west can deny exist because of them. Even if the only result of this perversion was AIDS &ndash; which attacks the immune system in humans &ndash; that would be enough.
It also causes the breakup of the family and leads people to give up their work and study because they are preoccupied with these perversions.
Since the prohibition has come from his Lord, the Muslim should not wait until medicine proves that harm befalls the one who does that which Allaah has forbidden. Rath...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)
In addition, Islam is the only religion prevailing over all other religions. Allah states in the Holy Qur&rsquo;an :
&ldquo;To thee We sent the Scripture in the truth, confirming the scripture that came be...]]></video:description>

"The first matter that the slave will be brought to account for on the Day of Judgment is the prayer. If it is sound, then the rest of his deeds will be sound. And if it is bad, then the rest of his deeds will be bad" (Al-Tabarani).
Umar radi Allahu anhu once stood on the pulpit and addressed the community with a loud powerful voice saying, "A man may grow old in Islam and never have completed for Allah a single salah!" They said, "How is this?" He said, "He does not perfect his concentration, nor his humbleness, nor his focus on Allah 'azza wa jall."]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Why Is Life So Hard? ᴴᴰ - by Ustadh Majed Mahmoud
Is there any doctor that would make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year without going through any kind of MCAT's , PCAT's, DAT's, chemistry, biology, whatever class, where he or she has to be examined and take the test?
Can anyone join the basketball team or the soccer team without going through some tests and tryouts?
Can anyone take their driver's license without taking a driving test?
And now when Allah (subahaanahu wa ta'ala) says...
Do you guys think out of your mind that you will be saying, 'I believe!' and you will not be tested?
Allah is telling you that, you will be left alone saying I believe and no test.
SubhaanAllah!
Allah (subahaanahu wa ta'ala) says...
And you think you will enter paradise just like that?
And you will not face what the people in the past have faced?
They faced sicknesses, poverty, calamities and they were shaken...out of test and trials.You think you will just say I believe and enter Jannah?
You think you would just go with life so smoothly and you will go to Jannah where you have a mansion .
Where you go around and all kind of food is around.
You will go to Jannah and you will never ever in your life be sad or depressed.
You will go to Jannah and enjoy every beautiful scene around you.
You think you will go to Jannah where in that place you will never be sick, you will never sneeze except beauty, you will never have any sweat and if you had sweat...when you have sweat it will be musk and beautiful smell.
When you go to Jannah your house will be made of bricks of gold and silver...all that in Jannah just like that?!
And when you go to Jannah and you enjoy the most beautiful thing in the world - the most beautiful thing which you will ever experience, which is seeing Allah (subahaanahu wa ta'ala).
You seeing Allah (subahaanahu wa ta'ala) is the most beautiful thing in the world.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[How the Day of Judgement Will Begin]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[There are various sites regarding prophesies on the last days . The sites give very precise locations and happenings before the last day. Are they true ? . However in Quran there are prophesies but it does not mention the places. If there are any clear indications in Quran or in Hadith about Last Days, can you kindly tell.Praise be to Allaah.
The Signs of the Hour are the signs that will precede Yawm al-Qiyaamah (the Day of Judgement) and indicate that it is nigh.The Hour (al-Saa'ah) means the time of reckoning, and is either:1. Saa'ah sughra (the lesser hour), which is a person's death, whereupon his reckoning starts when he leaves this world and passes into the Hereafter;2. Or Saa'ah kubraa (the greater Hour), which is when mankind will be resurrected from their graves to be judged and rewarded or punished accordingly.When the word al-saa'ah is used on its own in the Qur'aan, it refers to the greater reckoning (the Day of Judgement), as in the aayah (interpretation of the meaning): "People ask you concerning the Hour&hellip;" [al-Ahzaab 33:63]The Signs of the Hour (i.e., the Day of Judgement) are of two types:1. Ashraat al-Saa'ah al-Sughra (Minor signs of the Hour) These are signs that will appear a long time before the Hour approaches, such as the decline of knowledge, the spread of ignorance, drinking of wine or alcohol, competition in the construction of tall buildings, and many others. The scholars have listed almost sixty signs, some of which will accompany the major signs, or will appear afterwards.2. Ashraat al-Saa'ah al-Kubraa (Major Signs of the Hour)These are major signs that will appear shortly before the Day of Judgement comes. These extraordinary events will be:(1) The appearance of the Mahdi. At the end of time, a man from the descendents of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) will appear, and Allaah will help him to make His religion prevail. He will take control of the land (or the earth) and fill it with justice just as it had previously been filled with wrongdoing and op...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[I would like to know what the ruling on Honor killings would be and how it should be punished acording to the Laws of the Shariat.Praise be to Allaah.Killing a Muslim unlawfully is a serious matter and a grave crime. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell to abide therein; and the Wrath and the Curse of Allaah are upon him, and a great punishment is prepared for him&rdquo;
[al-Nisa&rsquo; 4:93]
al-Bukhaari (6355) narrated from Ibn &lsquo;Umar (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;The believer will continue to be encompassed by the mercy of Allaah so long as he does not shed blood that it is forbidden to shed.&rdquo;
&nbsp;
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) has explained to us the reasons for which it becomes permissible to shed this blood. He said: &ldquo;It is not permissible to shed the blood of a Muslim who bears witness that there is no god but Allaah and that I am the Messenger of Allaah except in three cases: a life for a life (murder), zina of one of who is previously-married (adultery), and the one who changes his religion and forsakes the jamaa&rsquo;ah.&rdquo; Narrated by al-Bukhaari (6370) and Muslim (3175). From this it is clear that zina on the part of one who is married is one of the reasons that make it permissible to kill a person, but the zaani (adulterer) cannot be killed unless two conditions are met:
-1-
He should be previously-married. The scholars have explained what is meant by previously-married in this case. Zakariya al-Ansaari (may Allaah have mercy on him) said in Asna&rsquo;l-Mataalib (4/128): The previously-married person, whether male or female, is any adult of sound mind who has previously had intercourse within a valid marriage. End quote. Shaykh Ibn &lsquo;Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) said in al-Sharh al-Zaad (6/120): There are five conditions for (being described as) previously-...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Have Patience and Faith In Allah]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[When will help and victory from Allah come? What are the means of attaining it?Praise be to Allah.
Firstly:
Allah&rsquo;s help to the Muslims against their disbelieving enemies who wage war on them is something real and true. Allah, may He be exalted, has promised that to the believers, and has told them that it is near, and that He only delays it for certain significant reasons. The one who has strong faith and true certainty will realise that it is indeed near as the Lord, may He be exalted, has told us.
Allah, may He be exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Or think you that you will enter Paradise without such (trials) as came to those who passed away before you? They were afflicted with severe poverty and ailments and were so shaken that even the Messenger and those who believed along with him said, &lsquo;When (will come) the Help of Allah?&rsquo; Yes! Certainly, the Help of Allah is near!&rdquo;
[al-Baqarah 2:214].
Imam Ibn Jareer at-Tabari (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
What this means is: Or do you think that you, O believers in Allah and His Messenger, will enter Paradise without anything befalling you like that which befell those who came before you among the followers of the Prophets and Messengers, of hardship, trials and tests? You will be tested as they were tested, with &ldquo;severe poverty&rdquo;, which is severe hardship and want, and &ldquo;ailments&rdquo;, which is pain and sickness. But you have not yet been shaken as they were shaken, i.e., you have not yet suffered extreme fear and terror at the hands of your enemy, so that you think that the help of Allah is slow in coming and you say &ldquo;When will Allah help us?&rdquo; Then Allah told them that His help was near to them, and that He would cause them to prevail over the enemy and defeat them. Then He fulfilled what He had promised them, and made their word supreme, and extinguished the flames of war lit by those who disbelieved.

      <video:title><![CDATA[Beautiful Girl - Emotional Reminder]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[This a true story that happened with a caller to Islam from Egypt called Amr Khalid, he said three days ago I received an e mail from a young lady from Australia, and the e mail reads as follows: and I quote: I am a young Lebanese lady that has a Muslim father and a Christian mother, for the first ten years of my life I lived in Lebanon then we migrated to Australia which brought an end to my relationship to my connection with the Middle East.
I am currently 22 years of age and after migrating to Australia, my association with my religion also ended completely. The only thing I know is that I am a muslimah, thats it.
I dont know what the Quran looks like, I dont know how to pray and the religion plays no significance in my life. My mother and father separated each one re marrying another person. I entered university, my mother and father left Australia living me behind alone with no family, no brothers and sisters, I know nothing about my ancestry in Lebanon, I lived alone and I had to work to spend on myself, I attended university in the morning and worked at the bar in the evening, I have a boyfriend and have not left out any haram except having done it without any shame. I am fully westernised, I know a little bit of Arabic and because I am extremely beautiful, I joined the beauty competition in New Zealand and won in this competition, I am planning to join a beer competition in New Zealand and I am currently modelling for magazines. During this time I used to visit a Lebanese family residing in Australia and I sow a Ramadan episode on television talking about modesty, the episode had its web addressed displayed. I went through a nervous breakdown; it was as though this episode was addressing me directly.
I am sending you this e mail to ask, is it possible for Allah to accept me, in other words forgive me? And this is where Sarahs e mail ends. Subhanallah!

When you do what Allah wants you to do your physical and spiritual lives will flourish and when you turn away from what Allah wants you to do your physical and spiritual lives will both wither away and die.
Of the worst diseases that a person can be afflicted with is the hardening of the hearts where both the physical and spiritual lives suffer.
In this soul awakening talk Shaykh Dr. Yasir Qadhi discusses being swamped in sins and the symptoms of a hard heart.

      <video:description><![CDATA[Which is a greater sin: Atheism or polytheism?.


Praise be to Allaah.
&nbsp;
Atheism, in modern terminology, means denying the Creator altogether, denying that He exists and not acknowledging Him, may He be glorified and exalted. The universe and everything in it, according to their claims, came about purely by chance. This is a strange view which is contrary to sound human nature, reason and logic, and is contrary to simple logic and indisputable facts. &nbsp;
As for shirk (polytheism or associating others with Allah), it implies belief in Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, and affirmation of Him, but it also includes belief in a partner to Allah in His creation, who creates or grants provision or brings benefit or wards off harm. This is shirk al-ruboobiyyah (ascribing partners to Allah in His Lordship). Or it means belief in a partner to whom some kind of worship is devoted as an act of love and veneration, as it is devoted to that person or thing as it should to devoted to Allah, may He be glorified and exalted. This is shirk al-&lsquo;ibaadah (associating others with Allah in worship). By studying these two deviations, we may see that each of them involves sin and evil which tells us that they are bad and we see how Allah described them as being like dumb animals.&nbsp;
Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Have you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) seen him who has taken as his ilaah (god) his own vain desire? Would you then be a Wakeel (a disposer of his affairs or a watcher) over him?
44.&nbsp;Or do you think that most of them hear or understand? They are only like cattle&nbsp;nay, they are even farther astray from the Path (i.e. even worse than cattle)&rdquo;
[al-Furqaan 25:43-44]&nbsp;
&ldquo;And surely, We have created many of the jinn and mankind for Hell. They have hearts wherewith they understand not, and they have eyes wherewith they see not, and they have ears wherewith they hear not (the truth). They are like cattle, nay even more astray; those! They are the hee...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[How I Came Back to Islam]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)
In addition, Islam is the only religion prevailing over all other religions. Allah states in the Holy Qur&rsquo;an :
&ldquo;To thee We sent the Scripture in the truth, confirming the scripture that came be...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Most Certainly There is a God]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[A non Muslim friend of mine asked how I could prove the existence of God and why He has given us life, and what its purpose is. My answer did not satisfy him, please tell me what I should tell him?Praise be to Allah
My dear Muslim brother, your efforts to call people to Allah and explain the reality of Allah&rsquo;s existence make us very happy. Finding out about Allah is in tune with the sound fitrah (natural inclinations of man) and with sound reasoning. How many there are who, once the truth becomes clear to them, they hasten to submit to Allah (enter Islam). If each one of us was to do his duty towards his religion, a great deal of good would be achieved. So we congratulate you, our brother, for undertaking the mission of the Prophets and Messengers, and we give you glad tidings of the great reward which you are promised, as your Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: &ldquo;If Allah were to guide one man at your hands, that would be better for you than red camels.&rdquo; (al-Bukhaari,Muslim). &ldquo;Red camels&rdquo; are the best kind of camels.
Secondly:
With regard to proof of the existence of Allah, it is obvious to anyone who ponders the matter, and there is no need for a lengthy discussion. When we ponder the matter, we find that it is divided into three categories: instinctive evidence, tangible evidence and shar&rsquo;i (revelatory) evidence. We will explain this to you further, insha Allah.
1 &ndash; Instinctive evidence:
Al-Shaykh Ibn &lsquo;Uthaymeen said:
The instinctive evidence that God exists is the strongest of all evidence for those who are not led astray by the devils. Hence Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;So set you (O Muhammad) your face towards the religion (of pure Islamic Monotheism) Haneef (worship none but Allah Alone). Allah&rsquo;s Fitrah (i.e. Allah&rsquo;s Islamic Monotheism) with which He has created mankind.&rdquo; [30:30]
Man&rsquo;s sound nature (fitrah) testifies to the existence of God and man cannot turn away from this unless ...]]></video:description>

We have established a well organized network of local youth groups that we call NeighborNets (which means network of neighbors) across the United States and Canada.

By providing the youth with an Islamic atmosphere where they can form bonds of brotherhood with their peers, they become comfortable with Islam and its teachings.

      <video:description><![CDATA[When You Decide To Change Yourself ᴴᴰ - by Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan
Maybe you were a person that wasn't very religious at all, and you were living life like the rest of your extended family. But something came in your heart and you said, 'you know what, I'm gonna take this guidance seriously.' I don't know how it happened. Maybe Allah made it happen through some YouTube video or a friend or... However it happened, But you decided to make a change for better in your life. And when you start changing the behavior in your life, the first people to see a change in you will be your own family. They will notice it! They will notice that you are not the same anymore. You don't talk the same, you don't act the same, you don't go to the same place, you don't even have the same friends anymore. And this necessarily happens. When you take a turn towards Islam necessarily you start losing friends because your old friends used to do pretty bad things, and now you can't do those things with them anymore, so you suffer a loss of friends. And at the same time your family starts saying you are acting a little too weird. And for the young man the family might say, 'what's that thing on your face? You forgot to shave? What happened to you?' And the girls starts wearing hijab and the family might even be in shock, and this is a Muslim family, mind you. They'll say, 'take that thing off your head! You're gonna go out to the wedding looking like that? I can't sit in the car with you like that. What do you think we are? Who do you...all of a sudden you are the Islamic role model? Who died and made you sheikh? That all of a sudden we should be looking up to you. Remember what you were like last year, man. You were the party animal. Now you're gonna go make Salaah? Yeah, seriously, please! We know what you're really like.'
In other words, every chance they get they say something to you. And you're in the middle of all of this and it becomes hard to hold on to your religion in the middle of all of this. It becomes hard. Because it's ...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[The Confused Muslims]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Why do we have to follow the sunnah of the prophet Muhammad and not just follow the quraan ?Why do we have to follow a specific Mathab?



Praise be to Allaah.
The first question may appear strange and somewhat surprising to committed, practising Muslims. How can something which is so obviously one of the bases of Islaam become a matter for discussion and debate? But since the question has been asked, we will present, with the help of Allaah, the principles and bases of the importance of the Sunnah, the obligation to follow it and the ruling concerning those who reject it. By so doing, we will also refute the doubters and the misguided group who call themselves &ldquo;Qur&rsquo;aaniyyeen&rdquo; (the Qur&rsquo;aan has nothing to do with them!) In sha Allaah this discussion will be of benefit to everyone who wants to understand the truth of the matter.
Proof of the importance of the Sunnah
(1) The Qur&rsquo;aan speaks of the importance of the Sunnah, for example:
(a) Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): &ldquo;He who obeys the Messenger has indeed obeyed Allaah . . .&rdquo; [al-Nisaa&rsquo; 4:80] Allaah described obedience to the Prophet (peace be upon him) as being a part of obedience to Him. Then He made a connection between obedience to Him and obedience to the Prophet (peace be upon him): &ldquo;O you who believe! Obey Allaah and obey the Messenger . . .&rdquo; [al-Nisaa&rsquo; 4:59]
(b) Allaah warns us not to go against the Prophet (peace be upon him), and states that whoever disobeys him will be doomed to eternal Hell. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): &ldquo;. . . And let those who oppose the Messenger&rsquo;s commandment beware, lest some&nbsp;fitnah&nbsp;(trial, affliction, etc.) befall them or a painful torment be inflicted on them.&rdquo; [al-Nur 24:63]
(c) Allaah has made obedience to His Prophet a religious duty; resisting or opposing it is a sign of hypocrisy: &ldquo;&rdquo;But no, by your Lord, they can have no Faith, until they make you [Muhammad] judge in all disputes between ...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Inspiring Reminder to Get Through Difficult Times]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What are the best ways a Muslim can thank Allah for all the blessings He has bestowed on us.


Praise be to Allaah.
&nbsp;
Firstly:&nbsp;
Thanks or gratitude means reciprocating kindness and giving praise to the one who has done good and kind things. The one who is most deserving of thanks and praise from people is Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, because of the great favours and blessings that He has bestowed upon His slaves in both spiritual and worldly terms. Allah has commanded us to give thanks to Him for those blessings, and not to deny them. He says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Therefore remember Me (by praying, glorifying). I will remember you, and be grateful to Me (for My countless favours on you) and never be ungrateful to Me&rdquo; [2:152]&nbsp;
Secondly:&nbsp;
The greatest ones who obeyed this command, and gave thanks to their Lord until they deserved to be described as shaakir and shakoor (thankful) are the Prophets and Messengers (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him).&nbsp;
Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):&nbsp;
&ldquo;Verily, Ibrahim was an Ummah (a leader having all the good righteous qualities), or a nation, obedient to Allah, Haneef (i.e. to worship none but Allah), and he was not one of those who were Al‑Mushrikoon (polytheists, idolaters, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah, and those who joined partners with Allah).
121.&nbsp;(He was) thankful for His (Allah&rsquo;s) favours. He (Allah) chose him (as an intimate friend) and guided him to a Straight Path (Islamic Monotheism &mdash; neither Judaism nor Christianity)&rdquo; [16:120, 121]
&ldquo;O offspring of those whom We carried (in the ship) with N&ucirc;h (Noah)! Verily, he was a grateful slave&rdquo; [17:3]&nbsp;
Thirdly:&nbsp;
Allah has mentioned some of the blessings that He has bestowed upon His slaves, and has commanded them to be grateful for them, and has told us that few of His slaves give thanks to Him:&nbsp;
Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):&nbsp;
1.

      <video:title><![CDATA[Secret Sins of a Believer]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[I heard from our Friday khutbah that a person will not be forgiven if he has bragged and boasted to his friends about his sin while Allah had hidden it, and he quoted a hadeeth to support his claim. Is this true ? I thought Allah forgives all sins! I am really in despair now.Praise be to Allaah.
With regard to the idea that Allaah forgives all sins: this is correct, because Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Say: &ldquo;O &lsquo;Ibaadi (My slaves) who have transgressed against themselves (by committing evil deeds and sins)! Despair not of the Mercy of Allaah, verily, Allaah forgives all sins. Truly, He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful&rdquo; [al-Zumar 39:53].Minor sins (saghaa&rsquo;ir) are expiated for by doing acts of worship and by avoiding major sins (kabaa&rsquo;ir), because of the following evidence (daleel):Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;If you avoid the great sins which you are forbidden to do, We shall expiate from you your (small) sins, and admit you to a Noble Entrance (i.e. Paradise)&rdquo; [al-Nisaa&rsquo; 4:31]
It was reported from Ibn Mas&rsquo;ood that a man kissed a woman, then he came to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and told him about it. Then Allaah revealed the words (interpretation of the meaning): &ldquo;And perform As-Salaah (Iqaamat-as- Salaah), at the two ends of the day and in some hours of the night [i.e. the five compulsory Salaah (prayers)]. Verily, the good deeds remove the evil deeds (i.e. small sins).&rdquo; [Hood 11:114]. The man said, O Messenger of Allaah, is this just for me? He said, &ldquo;It is for all of my Ummah.&rdquo; (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 503; Muslim, 2763)
It was reported from Abu Hurayrah that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;The five prayers and Jumu&rsquo;ah are an expiation from one week to the next, so long as you do not commit major sins.&rdquo; (Narrated by Muslim, 233).
There are many things that expiate for minor sins, such as fasting, qiyaam,...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[What does Islam teach about the family and the roles of men , women and Children?


Praise be to Allaah. &nbsp;
&nbsp;
Before we find out about the role of Islam in organizing and protecting the family, we should first find out what the situation of the family was before Islam, and what it is in the West in modern times.&nbsp;
Before Islam, the family was based on mistreatment and oppression. All affairs were controlled only by men or in other words, the males, and women and girls were oppressed and humiliated. An example of that is that if a man died and left behind a wife, his son by another wife had the right to marry her and control her life, or to prevent her from getting married. Men were the only ones who could inherit; women and children had no share. They viewed women, whether they were mothers, daughters or sisters, as a source of shame, because they could be taken as prisoners, thus bringing shame upon the family. Hence a man would bury his infant daughter alive, as is referred to in the Qur&rsquo;aan, where Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):&nbsp;
&ldquo;And when the news of (the birth of) a female (child) is brought to any of them, his face becomes dark, and he is filled with inward grief!
He hides himself from the people because of the evil of that whereof he has been informed. Shall he keep her with dishonour or bury her in the earth? Certainly, evil is their decision&rdquo;
[al-Nahl 16:58]&nbsp;
The family in the broader sense, i.e., the tribe, was based on supporting one another in all things, even in wrongdoing.&nbsp;
When Islam came, it did away with all that and established justice, giving each person his or her rights, even nursing infants, and even the miscarried foetus who was to be respected and prayed for (i.e., given a proper funeral).&nbsp;
When you examine the family in the West today you will find that families are disintegrating and the parents cannot control their children, whether intellectually or morally. The son has the right to go wherever he wants and do whatever ...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Taweez - Amulets: An Expression Of Shirk ᴴᴰ - by Ustadh Gabriel Al Romaani
Too many times Muslims put their trust in other than Allah Subhanahu ta'ala. Muslims think that there are other than Allah Subhanhu ta'ala to take care of them, to protect them from harm, from magic, from whatever evil there might be out there. Minal jinnati wannas! (From Jinn and from mankind) Muslims, by doing this they are committing a form of Shirk. You are giving to something, someone else other than Allah Subhanahu ta'ala, the power, as you think, to protect you. You think that this person, this amulet, that this taweez, whatever it is, this thing will protect you from the harm that might come to you or for anything else but the Qadrr of Allah Subhanhu ta'ala. Muslims have been put into this corner of ignorance where they are being given all kinds of things and they are putting their trust on these things because they are so desperate! And they think that these things (amulets) will help them. They don't realize that the first and foremost problem is that they themselves are far away from Islam. That they themselves are not praying properly. That they themselves are not doing the ibadaat (acts of worship) properly. That they themselves are not in a connection, in a proper connection with Allah Subhanahu ta'ala!
So I wanna share this with you. Today I went and met a brother, he was in the store. And I said to him, when I saw him wearing a...what we call a taweez or taweez as people say. I saw him wearing this taweez, and I told him, 'brother I don't want to upset you, but do you mind if we opened this because this is not good.' I can guarantee you that 90% of time, this is not good. It has squares and it has numbers in them and so many other things scribbled that might not make sense. So I said, 'Please man! Do you believe in Allah?' (He said) 'Yes!' I said Bismillah and cut it! We said Bismillah and cut, then we opened it. Bismillah we open it. We made the duas. And many other duas that we know. And the dua's......many many du...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[The Third Ticket - Powerful Islamic Reminder]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[The Third Ticket
The life of this world has three parts. It's like getting on a train. And you got three stops to make. So your ticket has three parts. When you start out, you are given a ticket. The ticket has three parts. So while you are in the womb of your mother with no consciousness at all, this is one part of your trip. And when you are born, you enter the world, so one part of your ticket is torn off and thrown away! You will never get that ticket again. No refunds! That ticket is gone! That part of the journey is over! You will not go back to womb! It's a one-way trip! One ticket, one part of the ticket, GONE! Then you are in the life, from a child till you are an adolescent, teenager, young adult, mature adult, middle age, others among you more than that...until we meet the grave! Death and the grave! So when you die, the moment that you die and all of you will die, another part of the trip is over! And that part of the ticket is torn off and it's gone! You will not return back to this life!
At the moment of death, you'll see Malak ul-Maut (the angel of death). And you will be like, 'Oh my God! Who is this coming to me? Who is this? Somebody stop this one! Wait a minute! You guys can't hear me anymore! Hello! Hello! Hello!' But now your hands aren't moving and he is coming! Coming! Nothing you can do! And when he takes the ruh (soul) from the body the soul coming out, for the one who was evil it is so excruciating, it's the worst imaginable pain in the world! The pain of being born is remembered by the mother! The pain of dying is remembered by the son! Now what will you do? But for the one, for the one who was good, the one who obeyed Allah, believed in Allah, did 'amalussaalihaat (good deeds) - for him it will be easy! No more than just like you get stuck with a pin. Easy!
So these are two totally different ways to end your life. There are many different ways to live your life, you can live your life however you want! To each is own as they say! Eat, drink and be merry! Enjoy it while you got it! Y...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)
In addition, Islam is the only religion prevailing over all other religions. Allah states in the Holy Qur&rsquo;an :

      <video:title><![CDATA[Animal Rights in Islam]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Islam not only has laid down the rights for humans regardless of race, color, language and riches, but has also laid down the rights for animals. Animals, like humans are one of the creations of Allah(swt). Prophet Muhammad(saw) was not only sent as a mercy to Mankind but as a blessing to all creatures as the Quran testifies:
We sent thee not, but as a Mercy for all creatures. -- [Quran 21:107]
It is encouraged for Muslim to let Animals eat of the plants that they have planted. Prophet Muhammad(saw) is reported to have said: Narated By Anas bin Malik: The Prophet said, "If any Muslim plants any plant and a human being or an animal eats of it, he will be rewarded as if he had given that much in charity." -- [Bukhari Vol. 8, Book 73, #41] Even if an animal eats from a plant which has been planted by man, the person will receive rewards for it. Moreover, another hadith is as follows:
Narated By Abu Huraira: Allah's Apostle said, "While a man was walking on a road. he became very thirsty. Then he came across a well, got down into it, drank (of its water) and then came out. Meanwhile he saw a dog panting and licking mud because of excessive thirst. The man said to himself "This dog is suffering from the same state of thirst as I did." So he went down the well (again) and filled his shoe (with water) and held it in his mouth and watered the dog. Allah thanked him for that deed and forgave him." The people asked, "O Allah's Apostle! Is there a reward for us in serving the animals?" He said, "(Yes) There is a reward for serving any animate (living being)." -- [Bukhari Vol. 8, Book 73, #38] &amp; [Muslim Book 26, Chapter 39, # 5577] Prophet Muhammad(saw) taught people to be kind to animals. Allah(swt) rewarded the act of the person who quenched the thirst of a thirsty dog. While men were accustomed to be cruel to the animals, Prophet Muhammad(saw) by the command of Allah(swt) taught Mankind to be merciful and kind to all living things. Not only were humans given their rights, the animals too were given theirs. Islam is...]]></video:description>

What doesn't really seem to add up is that even though Islam seems to be the least appealing way of life for women, more and more intelligent, educated, independent women are actually choosing to become Muslim. Now why would they want to do that?]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Never Give Up! ᴴᴰ - by Shaykh Mufti Ismail Menk
Assalaamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakaathuhu
My beloved brothers &amp; sisters, it's great to be talking to you and as you know we all have examinations in life different, type of examinations and each one has to try very hard. As you know in a set up where there is a school or a university at the end of every semester, trimester or term you would have some examinations to in order qualify you to get to the next level and as you progress in life the examinations become more and more difficult and you would know with out working we don't achieve! We know the common saying "mann jadaah wa jadahau' Whoever works very hard will definitely see the fruit of that particular working. So just like we have people who fail because they did not work hard or they did not understand that the examination become more and more difficult as time passes. We also have the issue with the deen where as we progress in life we have more and more tests and they become more &amp; more difficult until we meet with Allah subhanawaa taa'ala .
And this is why the prophet sallahau alaihi wasallam was told 'worship your rabb until death overtakes you!.' Right up to the end keep on worshipping continues, do not stop, do not pause, .do not loose hope in fact progress and become stronger and stronger. If you take a look at some of the other verses of Quran Allah subhanawaataa'ala makes mention of " fa izaa faraqta fansab ......wa ila rabbika farghab" You know Muhammad sallahau alihi wasallam deleivering the message was not easy, it was difficult, he faced so many challenges he continued he persevered, 23 whole years of nabuaah. And Allah subhanwaataa'la says when you have! Subhanallah! Subhanallah! You know the achievement that Allah subhanwataa'ala granted him! Allah subhanawataa'al will grant each person achievement according to his will obviously but also connected to the effort that the particular person makes. If we were to give up suddenly, we would never be able to achieve even ...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[I have a friend who uses the internet and goes to pornographic websites. What is the shar&rsquo;i ruling on that, and how can I help him to keep away from such things?.Praise be to Allaah. It is not permissible to look at pornographic pictures that show the charms of women, either on internet web sites or in newspapers or magazines etc. That is because looking at them is a means of enjoying them and knowing the beauty of the woman in the picture.
This may also be a means that leads to something haraam, so it is also regarded as haraam, because the means come under the same rulings as the ends.
Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa&rsquo;imah, 2424.
Many people take the matter of looking at pictures of non-mahram women lightly, on the grounds that these are just pictures and are not real. But this is a very serious matter, because it inevitably tempts a man to try to look at the woman directly. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Tell the believing men to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts). That is purer for them&rdquo;
[al-Noor 24:30]
Majmoo&rsquo; Fataawa wa Rasaa&rsquo;il Ibn &lsquo;Uthaymeen, 1/268 You can help your friend to keep away from these things by always advising him and making him fear Allaah, and reminding him that Allaah is always watching him and that nothing is hidden from Him. And remind him of the blessings that Allaah has bestowed upon him, such as giving him eyes with which to see things that will benefit him, and He has forbidden him to use them to look at things that He has forbidden. Remind him that Allaah will question him about that, hence Allaah concludes the verse referred to above with the words (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Verily, Allaah is All-Aware of what they do&rdquo;
[al-Noor 24:30]
And Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Verily, the hearing, and the sight, and the heart of each of those ones will be questioned (by Allaah)&rdquo;
[al-Isra&rsquo; 17:36]
If a wise man thi...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[The Oppression of Women]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What does Islam teach about the family and the roles of men , women and Children?Praise be to Allaah. Before we find out about the role of Islam in organizing and protecting the family, we should first find out what the situation of the family was before Islam, and what it is in the West in modern times.
Before Islam, the family was based on mistreatment and oppression. All affairs were controlled only by men or in other words, the males, and women and girls were oppressed and humiliated. An example of that is that if a man died and left behind a wife, his son by another wife had the right to marry her and control her life, or to prevent her from getting married. Men were the only ones who could inherit; women and children had no share. They viewed women, whether they were mothers, daughters or sisters, as a source of shame, because they could be taken as prisoners, thus bringing shame upon the family. Hence a man would bury his infant daughter alive, as is referred to in the Qur&rsquo;aan, where Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And when the news of (the birth of) a female (child) is brought to any of them, his face becomes dark, and he is filled with inward grief!
He hides himself from the people because of the evil of that whereof he has been informed. Shall he keep her with dishonour or bury her in the earth? Certainly, evil is their decision&rdquo;
[al-Nahl 16:58]
The family in the broader sense, i.e., the tribe, was based on supporting one another in all things, even in wrongdoing.
When Islam came, it did away with all that and established justice, giving each person his or her rights, even nursing infants, and even the miscarried foetus who was to be respected and prayed for (i.e., given a proper funeral).
When you examine the family in the West today you will find that families are disintegrating and the parents cannot control their children, whether intellectually or morally. The son has the right to go wherever he wants and do whatever he wants; the daughter has the right to sit wit...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Do You Know Who Are the Best of Sinners?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[I have committed a great sin and I prayed to Allaah and asked Him to forgive me. Will my repentance from that sin be accepted? I feel that my repentance has not been accepted and that Allaah is angry with me. Are there any indications that repentance has been accepted?.Praise be to Allaah. Firstly: Making mistakes and falling short are undoubtedly part of human nature and no one will be free of shortcomings in his obedience to Allaah, or free of mistakes or forgetfulness or sins. All of us fall short, commit sins, and make mistakes. Sometimes we turn to Allaah and sometimes we turn away from Him. Sometimes we remember that Allaah is watching and sometimes we become negligent. None of us is free of sin, and we will inevitably make mistakes. We are not infallible. Hence the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;By the One in Whose hand is my soul, if you did not commit sin Allaah would do away with you and bring people who would commit sin then pray for forgiveness.&rdquo; Narrated by Muslim, 2749. And he (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Every son of Adam sins, and the best of those who sin are those who repent.&rdquo; Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 2499; classed as hasan by al-Albaani.
By His mercy towards weak man, Allaah has opened the gate of repentance to him, and has commanded him to turn to Him, every time sin overwhelms him. Were it not for that, man would suffer a great deal of hardship and would not have the drive to draw closer to his Lord; he would lose all hope of His forgiveness and pardon. Repentance is something that is necessary as a result of man&rsquo;s shortcomings and human failings.
Allaah has enjoined repentance on all kinds of people in this ummah: those who are foremost in good deeds, those who follow a middle course, and those who wrong their own selves by doing haraam things (cf. Faatir 35:32).
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And all of you beg Allaah to forgive you all, O believers, that you may be successful&rdquo;

      <video:title><![CDATA[Men Are Not Equal To Women]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Is there a mention of the equality of women in the qur'an?Praise be to Allaah. Firstly:
This word &ndash; equality &ndash; which many thinkers in both the east and the west advocate in various fields of life is a word which is based on deviation and a lack of understanding, especially when the speaker attributes this idea of equality to the Qur&rsquo;aan and to Islam.
One of the things that people misunderstand is when they say that &ldquo;Islam is the religion of equality&rdquo;. What they should say is that Islam is the religion of justice.
Shaykh Ibn &lsquo;Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
&ldquo;Here we should note that there are some people who speak of equality instead of justice, and this is a mistake. We should not say equality, because equality implies no differentiation between the two. Because of this unjust call for equality, they started to ask, what is the difference between male and female?&rsquo; So they made males and females the same, and then the communists said, &lsquo;What difference is there between ruler and subject? No one has any authority over anyone else, not even fathers and sons; the father has no authority over his son,&rsquo; and so on.
But if we say justice, which means giving each one that to which he or she is entitled, this misunderstanding no longer applies, and the word used is correct. Hence it does not say in the Qur&rsquo;aan that Allaah enjoins equality, rather it says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Verily, Allaah enjoins Al‑&lsquo;Adl (i.e. justice)&rdquo;
[al-Nahl 16:90]
&ldquo;and that when you judge between men, you judge with justice&rdquo;
[al-Nisa&rsquo; 4:58]
Those who say that Islam is the religion of equality are lying against Islam. Rather Islam is the religion of justice which means treating equally those who are equal and differentiating between those who are different.
No one who knows the religion of Islam would say that it is the religion of equality. Rather what shows you that this principle is false is the fact that most of wha...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Be Productive Muslims - Reminder]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What does one need to become a scholar of Islam?You have asked about a serious matter, but it is easy for the one whom Allaah enables to do it. Knowledge is a sign of guidance. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;If Allaah wants to do good to a person, He gives him understanding of the religion.&rdquo; This is understood to mean that whoever Allaah does not wish good for, He does not give him understanding of the religion.
Al-Bukhaari (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: &ldquo;Chapter: it is essential to know a thing first before saying or acting upon it, according to the aayah (interpretation of the meaning):
&lsquo;So know (O Muhammad) that Laa ilaaha ill-Allaah (none has the right to be worshipped but Allaah),&rsquo;
[Muhammad 47:19]
So one should start with knowledge. The scholars are the heirs of the Prophets, i.e., they inherit knowledge. Whoever gains knowledge has gained great good fortune, and whoever follows a path to seek knowledge, Allaah will make easy for him the path to Paradise. Allaah said (interpretation of the meaning):
&lsquo;It is only those who have knowledge among His slaves that fear Allaah&rsquo;
[Faatir 35:28]
And Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&lsquo;but none will understand them except those who have knowledge&rsquo;
[al-&lsquo;Ankaboot 29:43]
&lsquo;And they will say: &ldquo;Had we but listened or used our intelligence, we would not have been among the dwellers of the blazing Fire!&rdquo;&rsquo;
[al-Mulk 67:10]
And He said:
&lsquo;Are those who know equal to those who know not?&rsquo;
[al-Zumar 39:9]
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Knowledge is gained by striving for it.&rdquo;
Ibn &lsquo;Abbaas said: &lsquo;Be faithful slaves to your Lord, patient and learned.&rsquo; And it is said that the good instructor is the one who starts teaching people simple matters of knowledge before more difficult ones.&rdquo;
It was narrated that Qays ibn Katheer said: &ldquo;A man came from Madeenah to Abu&rsquo;l-Da...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Discussing the 4 commonly asked questions - God of hate, Barbaric Sharia, Intolerance &amp; Oppressive to Women.
Kamal El Mekki discusses the misconception of Allah being the God of hate, and discusses the need for balance, and the proofs of the love the Allah bestows upon mankind. He explains that Allah loves all those who follow certain rules and behaviours, and that this is shown through the teachings in the Quran, and the behavior of the prophet Muhammed peace be upon him.
He further discusses the balance of the Sharia, the need for an understanding of the beautiful nature of the essence of the sharia, and the good that it prescribes. He mentions that the boundaries have strict rulings and punishments, but illustrates how impossible it can be to actually extract a punishment, and the way that this was witnessed historically.
Kamal El Mekki proves that Islam is a tolerant way of life, and uses both examples from the Quran and from the reality of life to demonstrate the repeated tolerance of Islam to other communities and he uses ration to explain the unfair view of oppression in Islam, and the double standards that are used as a way of attacking the way of life. Sheikh Kamal asks the viewer to ponder about the questions posed, and to ask the questioner to use ration, intellect and fairness to bring about a just answer.]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Both East and West belong to Allah, so wherever you turn, the Face of Allah is there. Allah is All-Encompassing, All-Knowing. (Surat al-Baqara, 115)
Allah, there is no god but Him, the Living, the Self-Sustaining. He is not subject to drowsiness or sleep. Everything in the heavens and the earth belongs to Him. Who can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is before them and what is behind them but they cannot grasp any of His knowledge save what He wills. His Footstool encompasses the heavens and the earth and their preservation does not tire Him. He is the Most High, the Magnificent. (Surat al-Baqara, 255)
There is no one in the heavens and earth who will not come to the All-Merciful as a slave. He has counted them and numbered them precisely. (Surah Maryam, 93-94)]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Story of the Devil Iblis and the Jinn]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[In Islam, the Devil is known as ʾIblīs (Arabic: إبليس&lrm;, plural: ابالسة ʾAbālisa) or Shayṭān (Arabic: شيطان&lrm;, plural: شياطين Shayāṭīn). According to the Quran, God created Iblis out of "smokeless fire or from the pure flame of fire" (along with all of the other jinn) and created man out of clay. The primary characteristic of the Devil, is that he has the power to cast evil suggestions into the heart of men, women, and jinn.
Iblis was proud and arrogant and considered himself superior to Adam, since Adam was made from clay and Iblis from smokeless fire. For this act of disobedience, God cursed him to Hell for eternity, but gave him respite until the Day of Judgment (Qiyāmah), after Iblis requested it. Iblis obtained permission from God and vowed that he would use this time to lead all human men and women astray to Hell as a way of revenge against them. By refusing to obey God's order he was thrown out of Paradise and thereafter he was called "Shaytan".]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[A Moment with Allah]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Are there degrees of Islam, and what are they?.Praise be to Allaah. Yes, there are three degrees of Islam, which are: Islam, eemaan and ihsaan. Each of them has a meaning and certain pillars or essential parts.
1 &ndash; Islam, which in Arabic means submission. In sharee&rsquo;ah terminology its meaning varies according to usage, and it may mean one of two things:
(i) When the word is used on its own and is not accompanied by the word eemaan (faith, belief), it refers to the religion as a whole, including both major and minor issues of belief, words and deeds, as in the verses where Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Truly, the religion with Allaah is Islam&rdquo;
[Aal &lsquo;Imraan 3:19]
&ldquo;and have chosen for you Islam as your religion&rdquo;
[al-Maa&rsquo;idah 5:3]
&ldquo;And whoever seeks a religion other than Islam, it will never be accepted of him&rdquo;
[Aal &lsquo;Imraan 3:85]
hence some of the scholars defined it as meaning: Submitting to Allaah by affirming that He is One (Tawheed) and submitting to Him by obeying Him and disavowing shirk and its people.
(ii) When it is used in conjunction with the word eemaan (faith, belief), in which case it refers to outward deeds and words, as in the verses where Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;The bedouins say: &lsquo;We believe.&rsquo; Say: &lsquo;You believe not but you only say, &ldquo;We have surrendered (in Islam),&rdquo;for Faith has not yet entered your hearts&rsquo;&hellip;&rdquo;
[al-Hujuraat 49:14]
In Saheeh al-Bukhaari (27) and Saheeh Muslim (150) it is narrated from Sa&rsquo;d ibn Abi Waqqaas that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) distributed (Zakaah) amongst (a group of) people while Sa&rsquo;d was sitting there. Sa&rsquo;d said: But the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) left a man who I thought the best of them all, and did not give him anything. I said, &ldquo;O Messenger of Allaah, why did you leave out So and so? By Allaah I regard him as a f...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Sinning and Wearing Hijab]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Does it matter if somebody wears hijab if they're committing all these other sins?
A person may look at their life and see they commit all these other sins and they may say to themselves, "Does it really matter if I wear hijab or not?
This is a trick from Shaytan.
What shaytan wants you to do is give up on this one good deed that you are doing. There is no doubt that wearing hijab is indeed very hard. And, this is why Shaytan will usually attack from that door.
He will constantly be on your back and remind you of how hard hijab is. Or, if you don't wear hijab, then Shaytan will constantly remind you that it is indeed very hard, and that your life is going to change when you wear hijab.
That may be true.
But, remember that even if you just wearing hijab and don't do any other good deeds and commit all these other sins, the wearing of that hijab is still a good deed. And, you are still in obedience of Allah subhana wa ta3la (The only one worthy of worship, most glorified and most high).
So, never give up on that hijab.
Allah knows best. Until next time!
Asalaamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu May peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah be upon you.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[How to Cure Cavities]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[A&nbsp;Miswak&nbsp;or Siwak, the twig a majority of people from Muslim countries use daily to brush their teeth, is an alien thing to most people in the Western world. Although it might sound outdated to use twigs from trees to clean one&rsquo;s mouth and teeth, studies conducted on the Miswak prove otherwise, inferring that the Miswak is better than toothpaste for preventing gum disease.
The Miswak, referred to at times as a chewing stick by Westerners, is also an alternative form of medicine. Let&rsquo;s analyze this &ldquo;wonder twig,&rdquo; keeping documented scientific studies as proofs.
But, first of all, why would anyone think of using a tree twig to clean their teeth? The fact is that ancient man did not have the facility of the modern day toothbrush; hence, many cultures have used the Miswak for oral hygiene. The reason for common use of the Miswak by Muslims can be attributed to religious beliefs. The Last Messenger sent to mankind Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), used the Miswak frequently and instructed his followers to do the same.
&nbsp;The Miswak is obtained from the twigs of the Arak, or Peelu tree. Many others varieties are in common use, including walnut and olive.&nbsp;
There are 70 benefits of Miswak as known through ancient Islamic literature. Scientists of today have not yet attempted the study of some of these boons, while others have been proven by labs effective as stated. The benefits of the Miswak range widely; however, the main ones we are examining concern oral health.
A few important benefits of Miswak
&middot; Kills bacteria that causes gum-disease.
&middot; Fights plaque effectively.
&middot; Fights against cavities.
&middot; Removes bad breath and odors from the mouth.
&middot; Creates a pleasant fragrance in the mouth.
&middot; Effectively cleans between teeth due to its bristles being parallel to the handle, rather than perpendicular, which results in effective cleaning between the teeth.
&middot; Increases salivation, thereby inhibiting dry mouth (Xerostomi...]]></video:description>

I originally was going to ignore her video based on the prophetic and quranic tradition to ignore the ignorant. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ (pbuh) doesn't need to be defended either as Allah has already honoured him beyond a level of any other creation - but then I realised that this is a perfect opportunity to insha'Allah highlight the perfect attributes of Muhammad pbuh and his beautiful characteristics.
These videos cannot beautify Muhammad pbuh - rather his name is what beautifies these videos. May Allah make us of those who truly love the Final Messenger of Allah - Muhammad pbuh.]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Umar Abdullah aka "L" Debois, was born and raised outside of Philadelphia. He began singing around age 3. In his teenage years he became a multi instrumentalist playing just about anything he could pick up. In Los Angeles, Cali, he signed with "Island DefJam Records" but later parted due to differences. He later signed to "Val's Artist Management" for commercial jingles landing spots for Slimfast, Coke, Cricket, and Dell to name a few.
In 2007 Umar embraced Islam and has since shared the stage with Zain Bhikha, Native Dean, Baba Ali, Allah made me Funny, and Khalil. He seeks to master the art of creating nasheeds with Voice and Drum combinations. Bridging the gap between entertainment and knowledge is essential to his mission.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[The Jinn Race and Devils]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[In Islam, the Devil is known as ʾIblīs (Arabic: إبليس&lrm;, plural: ابالسة ʾAbālisa) or Shayṭān (Arabic: شيطان&lrm;, plural: شياطين Shayāṭīn). According to the Quran, God created Iblis out of "smokeless fire or from the pure flame of fire" (along with all of the other jinn) and created man out of clay. The primary characteristic of the Devil, is that he has the power to cast evil suggestions into the heart of men, women, and jinn.
Iblis was proud and arrogant and considered himself superior to Adam, since Adam was made from clay and Iblis from smokeless fire. For this act of disobedience, God cursed him to Hell for eternity, but gave him respite until the Day of Judgment (Qiyāmah), after Iblis requested it. Iblis obtained permission from God and vowed that he would use this time to lead all human men and women astray to Hell as a way of revenge against them. By refusing to obey God's order he was thrown out of Paradise and thereafter he was called "Shaytan".]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[When Life Flashes Before Your Eyes ᴴᴰ - by Ustadh Ahmed Sidky
Brothers and sisters you might have heard people tell you, when people die...they see a flashback of their whole life in front of them. That is true by the Hadith of the Prophet (ﷺ). Where the Prophet (ﷺ) told the companions one day...he said, 'whoever loves to meet Allah - Allah will love to meet them. And whoever hates to meet Allah - Allah will hate to meet them.' Do you wanna hate to meet Allah? So the companions got a little worried. And they said, 'O Messenger of Allah, but we are all afraid of death.' Isn't that what you are talking about? And the Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'No, that's not what I am talking about. What I am talking about is this, at the moment of death...all your deeds are revealed to you. Your whole life, you will see it in front of you. So if you have good deeds, you will love to meet Allah and if you have bad deeds, then you will hate to meet Allah.' Brothers and sisters, I am going to try to make this as real as possible. So I need you to do something for me. Everyone close your eyes right now. We are gonna try an exercise. Just, while you are sitting down, just close your eyes. Everyone...
I want you to think of yesterday...just yesterday. Try to think of everything you did yesterday, everything good, everything bad. As if someone was recording your whole day yesterday, and you are watching that movie...just yesterday. Two days...so yesterday and the day before. What about last week?

      <video:title><![CDATA[Do You Want Your Dua's To Be Accepted?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What are the times, places and situations where du&rsquo;aa&rsquo; is answered? And what is meant by the words of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) &ldquo;Dabr al-salawaat al-maktoobah (following the prescribed prayers)&rdquo;? Is the prayer of a father for his child answered, or is it a prayer against him that is answered? I hope you can explain all these matters.Praise be to Allaah. There are many times and places where du&rsquo;aa&rsquo; is answered. There follows a summary thereof:
1 &ndash; Laylat al-Qadar. It was narrated that &lsquo;Aa&rsquo;ishah asked the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): &ldquo;If I know what night is Laylat al-Qadar, what should I say during it?&rdquo; He said: &ldquo;Say: Allaahumma innaka &lsquo;afuwwan tuhibb ul-&lsquo;afwa fa&rsquo;fu &lsquo;anni (O Allaah, You are forgiving and love forgiveness, so forgive me).&rdquo;
2 &ndash; Du&rsquo;aa&rsquo; in the depths of the night, the time before dawn, the time when Allaah descends to bestow His bounty upon His slaves, to meet their needs and to relieve their distress, when He says: &ldquo;Who will call upon Me, that I may answer Him? Who will ask of Me, that I may give him? Who will seek My forgiveness, that I may forgive him?&rdquo; narrated by al-Bukhaari, 1145.
3 &ndash; Following the prescribed prayers. According to the hadeeth of Abu Umaamah, it was said: &ldquo;O Messenger of Allaah, which du&rsquo;aa&rsquo; is heard?&rdquo; He said: &ldquo;In the last third of the night, and following the prescribed prayers.&rdquo; Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 3499; classed as hasan by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Tirmidhi.
There was some difference of scholarly opinion concerning the phrase dabr al-salawaat al-maktoobah (&ldquo;following the prescribed prayers&rdquo;) &ndash; does it mean before the salaam or afterwards?
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah and his student Ibn al-Qayyim were of the view that it is before the salaam. Ibn Taymiyah said: &ldquo;The word dabr refers to something that is part of a thing, li...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Is Shisha Haraam?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Is shisha [water pipe, also known as hookah or hubble-bubble] haraam? What if a person does not use any kind of tobacco; rather he uses rosewater? Is it still haraam?.Praise be to Allaah.Firstly:
There is no doubt that smoking is one of the worst poisons that many people are very keen to consume, not caring about the diseases that it causes, which lead to death in many cases. The World Health Organisation stated, in its 2008 report, that smoking tobacco kills 5.4 million people every year, i.e., approximately 14,000 people every day. Unless urgent measures are taken, tobacco will kill ten million people annually by the year 2020.
In the answer to questions no. 7432 and 10922, we have explained that it is haraam to cultivate, deal in and consume this evil plant.
Secondly:
The tobacco &ndash; as well as jiraak (something similar to tobacco) and mu&lsquo;assal (mild, flavoured tobacco) &ndash; which are smoked in the shisha are no different from regular cigarette tobacco that is rolled up in papers; in fact it contains bad ingredients that are not found in cigarettes. It says on the website of the Bahrain Anti-Smoking Society:
Components of shisha:
These components are no different from the components of cigarette tobacco and its smoke, as it contains no less than four thousand toxic substances, the most significant of which are: nicotine, carbon monoxide, tar, heavy metals, radioactive substances, carcinogens, agricultural chemicals, insecticides and many other toxic substances.
Some tobacco companies claim that all or most of the tar is removed from shisha tobacco. A number of flavouring substances, the components of which are not known, are also added to shisha tobacco, the extent of the harmful effects of which we do not know. What is said about smoking by means of the shisha or narghileh with tobacco or jiraak or mu&lsquo;assal being free of danger is not true at all. A four-year study in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has proven that mu&lsquo;assal is in fact pure tobacco with a large amount of dyes, colours a...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Age of Consent in European &amp; American&nbsp;Historyby&nbsp;DISCOVER THE TRUTH&nbsp;&bull; SEPTEMBER 9, 2013What was the &lsquo;Age of Consent&rsquo; in European and American history, prior to the 20th century? In this article, I shall bring forth evidences which demonstrate that the &lsquo;Age of consent&rsquo; was indeed, very young, even by today&rsquo;s standards. I will provide academic sources which show that girls were allowed to be married at the age of 10 years old and sometimes times, as young as 7 years old, legally. It was norm just over 100 years ago to see girls being married off at very young ages. In most cultures, the marriage would have been consummated at the onset of puberty.1. Professor of history Margaret Wade Labarge
&ldquo;It needs to be remembered that many Medieval widows were not old, Important heiresses were&nbsp;often married between the ages of 5 and 10 and might find themselves widowed while still in their teens.&rdquo;&nbsp;[1]
2. Professor Richard Wortley and Professor Stephen Smallbone, both of whom state that prior to the 1900s girls married very young,
&ldquo;In Medieval and early modern European societies, the age of marriage remained low,&nbsp;with documented cases of brides as young as seven years, although marriages were typically not consummated until the girl reached puberty&nbsp;(Bullough 2004). Shakespeare&rsquo;s Juliet was just 13, and there is no hint in the play that this was considered to be exceptional. The situation was similar on the other side of the Atlantic; Bullough reports the case in 1689 of a nine-year-old bride in Virginia. At the start of the&nbsp;nineteenth century in England, it was legal to have sex with a 10 year-old girl.&rdquo;&nbsp;[2]
3. In the book, &lsquo;Sex and Society&rsquo;,
&ldquo;Until the late 20th century U.S. age of consent laws specifically names males as perpetrators and females as victims. Following English law, in which the age was set at 12 in 1275 and lowered to 10 in 1576, ages of consent in the American colonies were gene...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Strong is the One Who Forgives]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[I am asking about some du&lsquo;as, such as &ldquo;O Allah, forgive the Muslims, men and women&rdquo; and &ldquo;O Allah, forgive us all.&rdquo; Is it permissible to say such du&lsquo;as when the fulfilment thereof is contrary to the will of Allah? How can we respond to the one who doubts such du&lsquo;as when they are said at the times when du&lsquo;as are answered?Praise be to Allah.Firstly:
There is nothing wrong with praying for forgiveness for the Muslims, men and women, in general terms. There is evidence to the effect that it is permissible, such as the following:
1.
The verse in which Allah, may He be exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;So know (O Muhammad &ndash; peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that La ilaha ill-Allah (none has the right to be worshipped but Allah), and ask forgiveness for your sin, and also for (the sin of) believing men and believing women.&rdquo;
[Muhammad 47:19].
It was narrated from &lsquo;Asim al-Ahwal that &lsquo;Abdullah ibn Sarjis said: I saw the Prophet (peace an blessings of Allah be upon him) and I ate bread and meat with him &ndash; or he said: thareed. He (the narrator) said: I said to him: Did the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) pray for forgiveness for you? He said: Yes, and for you. Then he recited this verse: &ldquo;And ask forgiveness for your sin, and also for (the sin of) believing men and believing women&rdquo; [Muhammad 47:19].
Narrated by Muslim, 2346.
There are several opinions concerning the meaning of the phrase &ldquo;and ask forgiveness for your sin&rdquo;. One of these opinions is that this shows that it is obligatory to pray for forgiveness for all the Muslims.
Al-Qurtubi (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
It was said that this is addressed to him (the Prophet - peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)), but is meant for the ummah. According to this opinion, this verse obliges the individual to pray for forgiveness for all of the Muslims.
Tafseer al-Qurtubi, 16/242
It was narrated that Ibn Jurayj said: I s...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Celebrating Prophet's Birthday]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Why some people accept and some unaccept the celebration of the prophet ( )? What is your opinion?Praise be to Allaah.
There is nothing in the Qur&rsquo;aan to say that we should celebrate the Mawlid or birthday of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). The Prophet himself (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) did not do this or command anyone to do it, either during his lifetime or after his death. Indeed, he told them not to exaggerate about him as the Christians had exaggerated about Jesus (upon whom be peace). He said: &ldquo;Do not exaggerate about me as the Christians exaggerated about the son of Maryam. I am only a slave, so say, &lsquo;The slave of Allaah and His Messenger.&rsquo;&rdquo; (Reported by al-Bukhaari). What has been reported is that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) made the day of his birth a day of worship, which is different to celebration. He was asked about fasting on Mondays, and he said: &ldquo;That is the day on which I was born and the day on which I was entrusted with the Mission or when I was first given Revelation.&rdquo; (Reported by Muslim, al-Nisaa&rsquo;i and Abu Dawood).
Moreover, we know that the Sahaabah (may Allaah be pleased with them) were the people who loved the Prophet most. Was it reported that Abu Bakr, who was the closest of people to him and the one who loved him the most, celebrated the birthday of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)? Was it reported that &lsquo;Umar, who ruled for twelve years, or &lsquo;Uthmaan, did this? Was it reported that &lsquo;Ali, his relative and foster son, did this? Was it reported that any of the Sahaabah did this? No, by Allaah! Is it because they were not aware of its importance, or did they not truly love the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)? No one would say such a thing except one who has gone astray and is leading others astray.
Did any of the imaams &ndash; Abu Haneefah, Maalik, al-Shaafi&rsquo;i, Ahmad, al-Hasan al-Basri, Ibn Seereen &ndash...]]></video:description>

1.Preserved in Arabic word-for-word, without any alterations for over 1400 years, as revealed to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
2.Memorized cover-to-cover in Arabic by MILLIONS, whether they know Arabic or not.
3.Most read, studied and recited ancient text.
4.Directly revealed from God, via Angel Gabriel, to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
5.Only ancient religious text where the language of its revelation (Arabic), including the dialect, is still used today.
6.Only religious text, other than the Bible, that makes it an article of faith to believe in Jesus as the messiah.
7.Only text that has a melodious message.
8.Only religious text in which God speaks in first person.
9.The original ancient manuscript still remains today.
10.The only religious text that allows you to test its authenticity, if you doubt that it is from God, by challenging anyone to produce anything equal to it. Until today, no Muslim or non-Muslim Arab has been able to meet this challenge. (Get a copy of the Qur'an and see for yourself. call today 1-800-662-4752
Islam means submission to the Creator alone. Islam is the belief that there is only One God, whose proper name is Allah, which means the God.
Islam is the same message given to all the prophets, from Adam, Noah, Moses, Abraham, Jesus, and finally to the Prophet Muhammad, the last messenger (peace and blessings be upon them). They all brought the same message: worship only God, and stop worshiping human beings and their ideas.
Allah is the name of God in Arabic, Arab Christians use the word Allah.
Become a Muslim(Any Peaceful person who submits to the Creator alone) Now
If you believe there is only One God who should be worshiped, and no one/nothing else has that right but Him, and you believe Muhammad, peace be upon him, was a messenger who brought the same message as all the prophets before him, then you are basically a Muslim.]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[The Heart ᴴᴰ - by Ustadh Ismail Bullock
Assalaamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakaathuhu
This is your brother Ismail Bullock here for the Daily Reminder.
Now today I want to discuss about the heart. We always spend our time caring about our parents, caring about our health, which is good, but that's what we focus on. We spend a lot of time trying to be healthy, making sure we look our best...but what about our hearts?
This is where everything comes from. This is where our faith is from -- the hearts.This is where our true belief comes from the heart. And, Allah mentions that not only is it where our belief is, it's where we can get pure and true satisfaction and content from.
Allah tells us in the Quran, referring to this remembrance, this dhikr of Allah. This remembrance of Allah and the effect it has on the heart, when he says...
'Indeed with the remembrance of Allah do the hearts feel content, satisfied.'
So this is showing us the benefits of this dhikr. But how many of us, we don't spend our time on the dhikr. We forget these kind of basic azkaar in the morning, the dua's in the morning and the evening, the reading of the Quran when we can, the smallest dua's that we are supposed to do in things we do on a daily basis -- we forget them. All of these come under dhikr. And we know the best dhikr is the Quran, how many of us, we don't even spend five or ten minutes reading the Quran. Five or ten minutes! But we spend hours and hours on Facebook or watching T.V, or whatever it may be. And Allah describes those people who constantly remember him...constantly think and ponder and remember Allah. When he says in the Quran...
Allah says, 'Those who remember Allah when they are standing, when they are sitting, and when they are lying down, and they ponder and reflect upon the creations of the heavens and the earth, and they say, 'Oh our Lord! Surely you did not create this for no purpose. Glory be to you and save us from the punishment of the fire.''
So this shows us the status of those and should encourage us...]]></video:description>

Islam means submission to the Creator alone. Islam is the belief that there is only One God, whose proper name is Allah, which means the God.
Islam is the same message given to all the prophets, from Adam, Noah, Moses, Abraham, Jesus, and finally to the Prophet Muhammad, the last messenger (peace and blessings be upon them). They all brought the same message: worship only God, and stop worshiping human beings and their ideas.
Allah is the name of God in Arabic, Arab Christians use the word Allah.
Become a Muslim(Any Peaceful person who submits to the Creator alone) Now
If you believe there is only One God who should be worshiped, and no one/nothing else has that right but Him, and you believe Muhammad, peace be upon him, was a messenger who brought the same message as all the prophets before him, then you are basically a Muslim.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Choosing the Right Spouse]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What are the most important factors for a woman in choosing a husband? If she rejects a righteous man for some worldly reasons, will she be punished by Allaah?Praise be to Allaah.
The most important factors for a woman in choosing a husband are his attitude/behaviour and his commitment to religion. Wealth and lineage are secondary matters. The most important thing is that the potential husband should be religious and have a good attitude, because if a man has religious commitment and a good attitude, a woman has nothing to lose: if he keeps her (remains married to her), he will keep her on a reasonable basis, and if he divorces her, he will set her free on a reasonable basis. Moreover, a man who is religious and has a good attitude will be a blessing to her and her children, for they will learn good manners and religion from him. But if the prospective husband is not like that (is not religious), she should keep away from him, especially those who take the matter of prayer lightly or who are known to drink alcohol. We seek refuge with Allaah.
As for those who do not pray at all, they are kuffaar and it is not permissible for them to marry believing women. It is important for the woman to focus on the matter of attitude and religious commitment. With regard to the matter of lineage, this is a bonus. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;If there comes to you (to propose marriage to your daughter etc.) a man with whose religious commitment and attitude you are pleased, then marry (your daughter) to him.&rdquo;
But if you can manage to ensure compatibility (in terms of lineage and socio-economic status, etc.) as well, then this is better.
From the Fataawa of Shaykh Ibn &lsquo;Uthaymeen, from the book Fataawa al-Mar&rsquo;ah]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[A Patient Mother - A Woman of Jannah]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Could you tell me some of the verses and ahaadeeth that speak of the virtue of patience?.Praise be to Allaah.Allaah has made patience like a horse that never gets tired, an army that can never be defeated and a strong fortress that can never be breached. Patience and victory are twin brothers, for victory comes with patience, relief comes with distress and ease comes with hardship. Patience is of more help to the one who has it than men, as it helps without any need for equipment or numbers and its relationship to victory is like that of the head to the body.
In the Qur&rsquo;aan, Allaah has guaranteed those who are patient that He will give them reward without measure.
He tells them that He is with them by guiding and supporting them and granting them a clear victory. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Surely, Allaah is with those who are As‑Saabiroon (the patient)&rdquo;
[al-Anfaal 6:46]
Allaah has made leadership in terms of religion conditional upon patience and certain faith, as He says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And We made from among them (Children of Israel), leaders, giving guidance under Our Command, when they were patient and used to believe with certainty in Our Ayaat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.)&rdquo;
[al-Sajdah 32:34]
Allaah tells us that patience is better for those who are patient, as He says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;But if you endure patiently, verily, it is better for As‑Saabiroon (the patient)&rdquo;
[al-Nahl 16:126]
Allaah tells us if we are patient and pious, the plot of the enemy cannot do any harm, even if he is powerful, as He says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;But if you remain patient and become Al-Muttaqoon (the pious), not the least harm will their cunning do to you. Surely, Allaah surrounds all that they do&rdquo;
[Aal &lsquo;Imraan 3:120]
Allaah tells us that the patience and piety of his Prophet Yoosuf brought him to a position of power and strength, as He says (interpretation of the mea...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Definition of Islam]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Are there degrees of Islam, and what are they?.Praise be to Allaah. Yes, there are three degrees of Islam, which are: Islam, eemaan and ihsaan. Each of them has a meaning and certain pillars or essential parts.
1 &ndash; Islam, which in Arabic means submission. In sharee&rsquo;ah terminology its meaning varies according to usage, and it may mean one of two things:
(i) When the word is used on its own and is not accompanied by the word eemaan (faith, belief), it refers to the religion as a whole, including both major and minor issues of belief, words and deeds, as in the verses where Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Truly, the religion with Allaah is Islam&rdquo;
[Aal &lsquo;Imraan 3:19]
&ldquo;and have chosen for you Islam as your religion&rdquo;
[al-Maa&rsquo;idah 5:3]
&ldquo;And whoever seeks a religion other than Islam, it will never be accepted of him&rdquo;
[Aal &lsquo;Imraan 3:85]
hence some of the scholars defined it as meaning: Submitting to Allaah by affirming that He is One (Tawheed) and submitting to Him by obeying Him and disavowing shirk and its people.
(ii) When it is used in conjunction with the word eemaan (faith, belief), in which case it refers to outward deeds and words, as in the verses where Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;The bedouins say: &lsquo;We believe.&rsquo; Say: &lsquo;You believe not but you only say, &ldquo;We have surrendered (in Islam),&rdquo;for Faith has not yet entered your hearts&rsquo;&hellip;&rdquo;
[al-Hujuraat 49:14]
In Saheeh al-Bukhaari (27) and Saheeh Muslim (150) it is narrated from Sa&rsquo;d ibn Abi Waqqaas that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) distributed (Zakaah) amongst (a group of) people while Sa&rsquo;d was sitting there. Sa&rsquo;d said: But the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) left a man who I thought the best of them all, and did not give him anything. I said, &ldquo;O Messenger of Allaah, why did you leave out So and so? By Allaah I regard him as a f...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[In the event of what has happened in Kenya today, and has happened in many other countries, how can Islam be called a peaceful religion?Praise be to Allah.Islam is a peaceful religion because Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, has called Himself as-Salaam (the One Free from all defects; this word also means &lsquo;peace&rsquo;), and Islam is His religion that He has approved of for mankind. Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;He is Allah than Whom there is La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He) the King, the Holy, the One Free from all defects, the Giver of security, the Watcher over His creatures, the All-Mighty, the Compeller, the Supreme. Glory be to Allah! (High is He) above all that they associate as partners with Him&rdquo;
[al-Hashr 59:23].
Islam is a peaceful religion because it forbids mischief on earth. Allah, may He be glorified, says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;and do good as Allah has been good to you, and seek not mischief in the land. Verily, Allah likes not the Mufsidoon (those who commit great crimes and sins, oppressors, tyrants, mischief-makers, corrupt)&rdquo;
[al-Qasas 28:77]
&ldquo;Verily, Allah enjoins Al-Adl (i.e. justice and worshipping none but Allah Alone - Islamic Monotheism) and Al-Ihsan (i.e. to be patient in performing your duties to Allah, totally for Allahs sake and in accordance with the Sunnah (legal ways) of the Prophet SAW in a perfect manner), and giving (help) to kith and kin (i.e. all that Allah has ordered you to give them e.g., wealth, visiting, looking after them, or any other kind of help, etc.): and forbids Al-Fahsha (i.e all evil deeds, e.g. illegal sexual acts, disobedience of parents, polytheism, to tell lies, to give false witness, to kill a life without right, etc.), and Al-Munkar (i.e all that is prohibited by Islamic law: polytheism of every kind, disbelief and every kind of evil deeds, etc.), and Al-Baghy (i.e. all kinds of oppression), He admonishes you, that yo...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Interview with ex-pastor Jo&atilde;o de Deus Cabral, aka Ibrahim de Deus. Regarding his choice of Islam as a religion, following the steps of Jesus, who was a Muslim.
Islam means submission to the Creator alone. Islam is the belief that there is only One God, whose proper name is Allah, which means the God.&nbsp;
Islam is the same message given to all the prophets, from Adam, Noah, Moses, Abraham, Jesus, and finally to the Prophet Muhammad, the last messenger (peace and blessings be upon them). They all brought the same message: worship only God, and stop worshipping human beings and their ideas.
Allah is the name of God in Arabic, Arab Christians use the word Allah.
Become a Muslim (Any Peaceful person who submits to the Creator alone) Now.
If you believe there is only One God who should be worshiped, and no one/nothing else has that right but Him, and you believe Muhammad, peace be upon him, was a messenger who brought the same message as all the prophets before him, then you are basically a Muslim.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[The Six Rights of a Muslim Upon Another Muslim]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah.The rights that one Muslim has over another are many, some of which are individual obligations that are required of each person, and if he fails to do them he is sinning. Others are communal obligations; if some people do them, the burden of sin is waived for the rest. And some are mustahabb (encouraged) but not obligatory, so the Muslim is not sinning if he does not do them.
Al-Bukhaari (1240) and Muslim (2162) narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) say: &ldquo;The rights of one Muslim over another are five: returning the greeting of salaam, visiting the sick, attending funerals, accepting invitations, and saying yarhamuk Allah (may Allah have mercy on you) to one who sneezes.&rdquo;
And Muslim (2162) narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: &ldquo;The rights of one Muslim over another are six.&rdquo; It was said: What are they, O Messenger of Allaah? He said: &ldquo;If you meet him, greet him with salaam; if he invites you, accept the invitation; if he asks for advice, give him sincere advice; if he sneezes and praises Allaah, say Yarhamuk Allaah (may Allaah have mercy on you); if he falls sick, visit him; and if he dies, attend his funeral.&rdquo;
Ash-Shawkaani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: What is meant by the words &ldquo;The rights of the Muslim&rdquo; is that they should not be omitted and doing them is either obligatory, or recommended to such an extent that it is very similar to being obligatory and should not be omitted. The word &ldquo;right&rdquo; (haqq) may be used in the sense of obligatory, as was mentioned by Ibn al-A&lsquo;raabi.
End quote from Nayl al-Awtaar, 4/21
1.
Returning the greeting of salaam is obligatory if the greeting is given to one person. If it is given to a group, then it is obligatory upon the group (fard kifaayah or communal obligation; if one of the group re...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[They Will Neglect the Prayer]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[If you do not pray salat out of laziness on purpose, are you a kafir or just a bad Muslim? Please answer.Praise be to Allaah.
Imaam Ahmad said that the one who does not pray because of laziness is a kaafir. This is the more correct view and is that indicated by the evidence of the Book of Allaah and the Sunnah of His Messenger, and by the words of the Salaf and the proper understanding. (Al-Sharh al-Mumti&rsquo; &lsquo;ala Zaad al-Mustanqi&rsquo;, 2/26).
Anyone who examines the texts of the Qur&rsquo;aan and Sunnah will see that they indicate that the one who neglects the prayer is guilty of Kufr Akbar (major kufr) which puts him beyond the pale of Islam.
Among the evidence to be found in the Qur&rsquo;aan is:
The aayah (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;But if they repent [by rejecting Shirk (polytheism) and accept Islamic Monotheism], perform As-Salaat (Iqaamat-as-Salaat) and give Zakaat, then they are your brethren in religion.&rdquo; [al-Tawbah 9:11]
The evidence derived from this aayah is that Allaah defined three things that the Mushrikeen have to do in order to eliminate the differences between them us: they should repent from shirk, they should perform prayer, and they should pay zakaah. If they repent from shirk but they do not perform the prayer or pay zakaah, then they are not our brethren in faith; if they perform the prayer but do not pay zakaah, then they are not our brethren in faith. Brotherhood in religion cannot be effaced except when a person goes out of the religion completely; it cannot be effaced by fisq (immoral conduct) or lesser types of kufr.
Allaah also says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Then, there has succeeded them a posterity who have given up As-Salaat (the prayers) [i.e. made their Salaat (prayers) to be lost, either by not offering them or by not offering them perfectly or by not offering them in their proper fixed times] and have followed lusts. So they will be thrown in Hell. Except those who repent and believe (in the Oneness of Allaah and His Messenger Muham...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[A Trick of Shaithaan]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[A Trick Of Shaithaan ᴴᴰ - by Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan I want to tell you about a trick of Shaitaan.
When you go late to work and you're late, and your boss is angry because you are late, and lots of people work at your office, you know what you do? You avoid eye contact and sneak into your cubicle. You don't want to face him. When you have a bad report card, and you go home to family in 6-7 grade and you got bad a report card, you sneak into the house. There's no, "Salam Alaikum, I'm home!" You sneak in and kind of go and you pass out, you go to sleep. "What happened in school?" "Nothing!"
When you disappoint someone you avoid contact, it is natural. In this faith when do something shameless, when we wrong ourselves, who have we disappointed? Allah azzawajal. You've disappointed Allah. So naturally, Shaitaan takes advantage of this. He comes to you and says: "You're going to pray now, you hypocrite. You do this shameless thing, you do this and that, and now you wanna go attend a class! Now you wanna go to do ibadah? You're such a two faced person." So the person says to himself: "Yeah, I shouldn't pray because I'm two faced." Shaitaan takes advantage. He distances you from Allah and he is embarrassed to go in front of Allah azzawajal. But the true muttaq, he does something wrong, and immediately what does he do? - He remembers Allah. "Zakarullah" (remembering Allah) There not even no "fa" "thu'umma"(then, after) nothing. Zakarullah, immediately!
"Fastaghfaru li zunoobi him." Then they ask Allah to forgive for their sins. And the word for sins here, zunoob, comes from zanab actually, meaning a tail. That which you're not proud of. That which humiliates you. Something you did that you're not proud of. And they ask Allah to forgive those embarrassing things that they did. " Wa ma'ii yaghfiruz zunoob illallah"- who's gonna forgive sins if not Allah. Who are you gonna go to? Where else you got to? Who knows the thing that you and I have done wrong except ourselves and Allah. There's a lot of things in our closet ...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[ICNA Convention 2011 Question and Answer SessionOBL Killing vs. Burial by Sh. Omar Suleiman----------------------------------------&shy;----------------------------------------&shy;-----------------ICNA's Statement on Killing of Osama bin Laden&mdash;FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE&mdash;
JAMAICA, New York (May 2, 2011) -- The Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA) issued a press release this morning on the killing of Osama bin Laden by a US military operation outside Abbottabad, Pakistan yesterday.
"Osama bin Laden posed a serious threat to the security of America and the world, and the removal of this threat is a significant turning point in the post-9/11 global War on Terror.
"Our thoughts are first and foremost with the families of those killed on 9/11 and the countless innocent men, women and children who have died in the ensuing wars. We pray this news brings closure to these families and ultimately ushers in a new chapter of peace and understanding in America's history.
"ICNA hopes that the Obama administration will use this pivotal moment as an opportunity to rapidly end the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and ensure the safe return of our troops.
"We reiterate President Obama's statement that America is not at war with Islam and Osama bin Laden was not representative of Muslims. We must remember with conviction the unity that brought us out of the devastation of September 11, 2001, and work to preserve that unity in coming days."
The Islamic Circle of North America is a leading American Muslim organization dedicated to the betterment of society through the promotion of Islamic values. Since 1968, ICNA has worked to build relations between communities by devoting itself to education, outreach, social services and relief efforts.

      <video:description><![CDATA[Allah? Jesus? Or Eminem? ᴴᴰ ┇ Muslim Spoken Word ┇ by Kamal Saleh ┇ The Daily Reminder ┇&nbsp;Assalaamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakaathuhu'One of the biggest issues leaving society confused today is not knowing who God is. This is mainly due to the amount of corrupt definitions of God available in the public, from Thor, to Zeus, to both Kanye West and Eminem labelling themselves as "Gods", many of us have either given up on God completely or are left with a misconstrued understanding of who God is.I present to you God in the most logical and rational sense yet. Ten minutes of your time that would only benefit you if you were truly sincere to find out the truth.SPECIAL THANKS to Hamza Tzortzis more information from his essay available here:http://www.hamzatzortzis.com/essays-a...Online Quran available at www.quran.com'"Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)

      <video:title><![CDATA[Paul Walker - Famous Celebrity Actor from the 'Fast and the Furious']]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Paul Walker (Famous celebrity actor from the 'Fast and the Furious' movie) passed away a few weeks ago and this was the state of the car that he died in.&nbsp;
When ever a life is lost it is sad. What we want to do is draw some lessons from this sad incident and use it as a great reminder so that it will help us to remember the ultimate realty of Death and hopefully it will motivate some of us to search for the true meaning of life and to ponder deeply about our very existence, why have we been created and where are we going when we die.
Paul Walker like many of us was looking forward to the future to the release of his new 'Fast and the Furious' film next year, without thinking he may be dead by then.&nbsp;
Most of us do the same thing, we think about the future and ignore the fact that we may pass away before our plans ever become a reality.&nbsp;
Only Allah(The Creator) knows how long we have left in this world. Many of us may not be alive to see tomorrow, next week, or next year and that is the honest truth and the ultimate reality that the majority of us are ignoring.
We should use this reminder to make the most out of every minute we have in this world and do as much as we can for our Akhirah(HereAfter) by obeying the Creator and doing good deeds because as you can see from the picture's, all it takes is a wrong turn of the steering wheel and you are gone.
Start today by asking your Maker to guide you to the true Purpose of life and to a life that is pleasing to him.
Put aside time to research the different religions that are making the claims that they are the truth and start a process of elimination all the way until you find the one that is organized not by human beings but by the Creator of human beings.&nbsp;
The truth is out there the question is are you earnestly, sincerely seeking it. This reminder of death should motivate you to take some actions towards the most important question in life...
The Purpose of life?]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Now Is the Time!]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Is it one of the signs of the hour that days will pass quickly and will become short?.Praise be to Allaah. Perhaps the questioner is referring to the hadeeth narrated by al-Bukhaari (1036) from Abu Hurayrah who said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;The Hour will not begin until knowledge is taken away, earthquakes increase, time passes quickly, tribulations appear, and there is a lot of haraj, which is killing, killing, and until there will be a lot of wealth among you and it will become abundant.&rdquo;
And Ahmad narrated (10560) that Abu Hurayrah said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;The Hour will not begin until time passes quickly, so a year will be like a month, and a month will be like a week, and a week will be like a day, and a day will be like an hour, and an hour will be like the burning of a braid of palm leaves.&rdquo;
Ibn Katheer said: Its isnaad is (saheeh) according to the conditions of Muslim. And it was classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Jaami&rsquo;, 7422.
These two ahaadeeth indicate that one of the signs of the Hour is that time will pass more quickly.
The scholars differed concerning the meaning of the phrase taqaarub al-zamaan (time passing more quickly). There are many views, the strongest of which is:
That the phrase taqaarub al-zamaan (time passing quickly) may be interpreted literally or metaphorically.
The metaphorical meaning is that barakah (blessing) will disappear from time, which is something that started a long time ago.
This was the view favoured by al-Qaadi &lsquo;Iyaad, al-Nawawi and al-Haafiz ibn Hajar (may Allaah have mercy on them).
Al-Nawawi said: what is meant by its becoming short is that there will be no barakah in it, and that the benefit that a person gets from one day, for example, will be the equivalent of the benefit that he used to get in a single hour.
Al-Haafiz said: The fact of the matter is that what it means is that barakah will disappear from everything, even fr...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Advice for Non -Hijabi Sisters]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Could u please supply me with some qoutes from the Hadith and Quran on the importance of hijab for women.Praise be to Allaah. Verses that have to do with hijab:
1 &ndash; Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And tell the believing women to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts) and not to show off their adornment except only that which is apparent (like both eyes for necessity to see the way, or outer palms of hands or one eye or dress like veil, gloves, headcover, apron), and to draw their veils all over Juyoobihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms) and not to reveal their adornment except to their husbands, or their fathers, or their husband&rsquo;s fathers, or their sons, or their husband&rsquo;s sons, or their brothers or their brother&rsquo;s sons, or their sister&rsquo;s sons, or their (Muslim) women (i.e. their sisters in Islam), or the (female) slaves whom their right hands possess, or old male servants who lack vigour, or small children who have no sense of feminine sex. And let them not stamp their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment. And all of you beg Allaah to forgive you all, O believers, that you may be successful&rdquo;
[al-Noor 24:31]
2 &ndash; Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And as for women past childbearing who do not expect wedlock, it is no sin on them if they discard their (outer) clothing in such a way as not to show their adornment. But to refrain (i.e. not to discard their outer clothing) is better for them. And Allaah is All‑Hearer, All‑Knower&rdquo;
[al-Noor 24:60]
&ldquo;Women past childbearing&rdquo; are those who no longer menstruate, so they can no longer get pregnant or bear children.
We shall see below the words of Hafsah bint Sireen and the way in which she interpreted this verse.
3 &ndash; Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

      <video:title><![CDATA[Such is Jannah]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What is the description of al-hoor al-iyn as stated in the Qur'aan and Sunnah? If a wife is righteous in this world, what will her form or attributes be in Paradise if Allaah wills that she should enter Paradise?.Praise be to Allaah.Firstly:
Pleasing the most Merciful and entering Paradise are the ultimate aim that believing men and women should wish for. If a person departs this world having won the pleasure of Allaah, then he will have the glad tidings of all that is good after that. When he enters Paradise he will have delights and pleasures such as no eye has seen, no ear has heard and it has not entered the mind of any man. He will have all that he wishes for in the best ways. Everything that he asks for will be granted, and everything that he longs for he will get. He will never find anything to upset or disturb him, because he is in the care of the Most Merciful, as Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Therein you shall have (all) that your inner‑selves desire, and therein you shall have (all) for which you ask.
32. An entertainment from (Allaah), the Oft‑Forgiving, Most Merciful&rdquo;
[Fussilat 41:31-32]
One of the best things that people long for in the Hereafter is, for men, the women of Paradise, namely al-hoor al-&lsquo;iyn, and for women there is an equivalent delight. By His great wisdom, Allaah has not mentioned what the women will have as the equivalent of al-hoor al-&lsquo;iyn for men, and that is due to modesty and shyness. How can He encourage them to seek Paradise by mentioning something that they are too shy and modest to mention or speak about themselves? So He has simply hinted at it, as in the verse (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Therein you shall have (all) that your inner‑selves desire
[Fussilat 41:31-32]
The description of al-hoor al-&lsquo;iyn is mentioned in more than one place in the Book of Allaah, such as the following:
1 &ndash; Allaah says, describing the reward of the people of Paradise (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And (there will be)...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Can Boys and Girls Be Friends?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Many young girls correspond with boys, and they write in their letters things that I would not dare to write or mention to you. This phenomenon is widespread in this society. Hence we earnestly hope that you can do us the favour of writing to us a letter in which you tell us the answer to this problem, with evidence (daleel) and proof. I have told many of them about how serious this matter is, but I cannot do much and I do not have deep knowledge, so I failed to convince them despite my repeated attempts.Praise be to Allaah.
One of the essential aims of sharee&rsquo;ah is to protect people&rsquo;s lineage and honour. For this reason, Allaah has forbidden zinaa and ordered that it be punished by whipping or stoning. And He has forbidden the means that may lead to zinaa, such as a man being alone with a non-mahram woman, sinful looks, and women travelling without a mahram or going out of their homes wearing perfume and make-up, clothed yet naked, seeking thus to attract young men and provoke their desires and tempt them away from their religious commitment. This also includes a man speaking to a woman in a deceitful manner, and her speaking to him in a soft voice so as to tempt him and provoke his desire, so that he will fall in her trap &ndash; whether this is done in person, over the phone, via correspondence or in some other manner. For this reason, Allaah forbade the wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), even though they were good and pure, to make a display of themselves in the manner of the first Jaahiliyyah, or to speak in soft voices so as to provoke the desire of those in whose hearts was a disease; and He commanded them to speak in a manner that was honourable. Allaah said (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;O wives of the Prophet! You are not like any other women. If you keep your duty (to All&acirc;h), then be not soft in speech, lest he in whose heart is a disease (of hypocrisy, or evil desire for adultery) should be moved with desire, but speak in an honourable manne...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA["Nice Legs" (Funny)]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah.This hadeeth was narrated by al-Bukhaari (4802) and Muslim (1466) from Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) who said: &ldquo;A woman may be married for four things: her wealth, her lineage, her beauty and her religious commitment. Seek the one who is religiously-committed, may your hands be rubbed with dust (i.e., may you prosper).&rdquo;
There is nothing in this hadeeth to suggest that it is enjoined or encouraged to marry a woman for her beauty, lineage or wealth. Rather what it means is that these are things that people look for in marriage. Some look for a wife who is beautiful, some look for a wife who is descended from a noble family, some look for a wealthy wife, and some look for a wife who is religiously-committed &ndash; and this last is what the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) encouraged when he said: &ldquo;Seek the one who is religiously-committed, may your hands be rubbed with dust (i.e., may you prosper).&rdquo;
Al-Nawawi (may Allaah have mercy on him) said in Sharh Muslim:
The correct view concerning the meaning of this hadeeth is that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) spoke of what people usually do, for they seek these four characteristics, the last of which in their view is religious commitment, but you who are seeking to follow the right way should seek the one who is religiously committed. This is not a command to do so&hellip; This hadeeth encourages us to seek the company of religiously-committed people in all things, because the one who keeps company with them will benefit from their good attitude and good ways, and will be safe from any bad influence from them.
Al-Mubaarakfoori said in Tuhfat al-Ahwadhi:
Al-Qaadi (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: It is the people&rsquo;s custom to seek certain characteristics in women and to choose a wife for a certain quality. It befits those who are religiously-committed to base their actions on religious guidance, es...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[90 Verses That Say: Jesus is Not God Nor the Literal Son of God]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[90 Verses says: Jesus is not God
Compiled by Adenino Otari
All four Gospels record Jesus as saying, "Blessed are the peace-makers; they will be called sons of God."
The word &lsquo;son&rsquo; cannot be accepted literally because in the Bible, God apparently addresses many of his chosen servants as &lsquo;son&rsquo; and &lsquo;sons.&rsquo; The Hebrews believed God is One, and had neither wife nor children in any literal sense. Therefore, it is obvious the expression &lsquo;son of God&rsquo; merely meant &lsquo;Servant of God&rsquo;; one who, because of faithful service, was close and dear to God as a son is to his father.
Christians who came from a Greek or Roman background, later misused this term. In their heritage, &lsquo;son of God&rsquo; signified an incarnation of a god or someone born of a physical union between male and female gods. This can be seen in Acts 14: 11-13, where we read that when Paul and Barnabas preached in a city of Turkey, pagans claimed they were gods incarnate. They called Barnabas the Roman god Zeus, and Paul the Roman god Hermes.
Furthermore, the New Testament Greek word translated as &lsquo;son&rsquo; are &lsquo;pias&rsquo; and &lsquo;paida&rsquo; which mean &lsquo;servant,&rsquo; or &lsquo;son in the sense of servant.&rsquo; These are translated to &lsquo;son&rsquo; in reference to Jesus and &lsquo;servant&rsquo; in reference to all others in some translations of the Bible. So, consistent with other verses, Jesus was merely saying that he is God&rsquo;s servant.
Additional problems with Trinity
To a christian, God had to take human form to understand temptation and human suffering, but the concept is not based on any clear words of Jesus. In contrast, God does not need to be tempted and suffer in order to be able to understand and forgive man&rsquo;s sins, for He is the all knowing Creator of man. This is expressed in the verse:
&lsquo;And the Lord said: &lsquo;I have surely seen the affliction of My people that are in Egypt, and I have heard their cry because of their task...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Understanding Islam]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Are there degrees of Islam, and what are they?.Praise be to Allaah. Yes, there are three degrees of Islam, which are: Islam, eemaan and ihsaan. Each of them has a meaning and certain pillars or essential parts.
1 &ndash; Islam, which in Arabic means submission. In sharee&rsquo;ah terminology its meaning varies according to usage, and it may mean one of two things:
(i) When the word is used on its own and is not accompanied by the word eemaan (faith, belief), it refers to the religion as a whole, including both major and minor issues of belief, words and deeds, as in the verses where Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Truly, the religion with Allaah is Islam&rdquo;
[Aal &lsquo;Imraan 3:19]
&ldquo;and have chosen for you Islam as your religion&rdquo;
[al-Maa&rsquo;idah 5:3]
&ldquo;And whoever seeks a religion other than Islam, it will never be accepted of him&rdquo;
[Aal &lsquo;Imraan 3:85]
hence some of the scholars defined it as meaning: Submitting to Allaah by affirming that He is One (Tawheed) and submitting to Him by obeying Him and disavowing shirk and its people.
(ii) When it is used in conjunction with the word eemaan (faith, belief), in which case it refers to outward deeds and words, as in the verses where Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;The bedouins say: &lsquo;We believe.&rsquo; Say: &lsquo;You believe not but you only say, &ldquo;We have surrendered (in Islam),&rdquo;for Faith has not yet entered your hearts&rsquo;&hellip;&rdquo;
[al-Hujuraat 49:14]
In Saheeh al-Bukhaari (27) and Saheeh Muslim (150) it is narrated from Sa&rsquo;d ibn Abi Waqqaas that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) distributed (Zakaah) amongst (a group of) people while Sa&rsquo;d was sitting there. Sa&rsquo;d said: But the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) left a man who I thought the best of them all, and did not give him anything. I said, &ldquo;O Messenger of Allaah, why did you leave out So and so? By Allaah I regard him as a f...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah. It is proven in the Qur&rsquo;aan and Sunnah that when a person dies, he will be called to account for every major and minor action he did in this world, whether it was good or bad. He will be rewarded for his good deeds and punished for his bad deeds. The first stage of that reckoning is in the grave. In the grave the first thing a person will be asked will be: Who was your Lord? What is your religion? Who is this man who was sent amongst you? &ndash; as was narrated in the hadeeth of al-Baraa&rsquo; ibn &lsquo;Aazib (may Allaah be pleased with him), which was narrated by Abu Dawood in his Sunan (4753) and classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh Abi Dawood, 2979.
Then on the Day of Resurrection he will be brought to account for every major and minor action, even though he has already been brought to account for that in the grave. The first thing for which he will be brought to account for then will be his prayer.
It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;The first thing among their deeds for which the people will be brought to account on the Day of Resurrection will be prayer. Our Lord will say to His angels, although He knows best, &lsquo;Look at My slave&rsquo;s prayer, is it complete or lacking?&rsquo; If it is complete, it will be recorded as complete, but if it is lacking, He will say, &lsquo;Look and see whether my slave did any voluntary (naafil) prayers.&rsquo; If he had done voluntary prayers, He will say, &lsquo;Complete the obligatory prayers of My slave from his voluntary prayers.&rsquo; Then the rest of his deeds will be examined in a similar manner.&rdquo;
(Narrated by Abu Dawood, 864; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh Abi Dawood, 770).
On the Day of Resurrection, people will be asked about other matters, including the following:
It was narrated from Ibn Mas&rsquo;ood (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;The son of Adam will not be...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah. Istikhaarah prayer is a Sunnah which the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) prescribed for anyone who wants to do an action but is hesitant about it. Discussion of Istikhaarah prayer covers eight points:
1- Definition
2- Ruling
3- The wisdom behind prescribing it
4- Reasons for it
5- When Istikhaarah should be started
6- Consulting people before praying istikhaarah
7- What should be recited in istikhaarah
8- When should the du&rsquo;aa&rsquo; be recited?
1 &ndash; Definition
Istikhaarah in Arabic means seeking guidance to make a decision concerning something. It is said in Arabic Istakhir Allaaha yakhir laka (Seek guidance from Allaah and He will guide you (to the right decision)). In sharee&rsquo;ah terminology, Istikhaarah means seeking guidance (to the right decision), i.e., seeking guidance as to what Allaah knows is the best and most appropriate choice, by means of prayer or the du&rsquo;aa&rsquo; narrated concerning Istikhaarah.
2 &ndash; Ruling
The scholars are unanimously agreed that Istikhaarah is Sunnah. The evidence that it is prescribed is the hadeeth narrated by al-Bukhaari from Jaabir (may Allaah be pleased with him) who said:
&ldquo;The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to teach his companions to make istikhaarah in all matters, just as he used to teach them soorahs from the Qur&rsquo;aan. He said: &lsquo;If any one of you is deliberating about a decision he has to make, then let him pray two rak&rsquo;ahs of non-obligatory prayer, then say: Allaahumma inni astakheeruka bi &lsquo;ilmika wa astaqdiruka bi qudratika wa as&rsquo;aluka min fadlika, fa innaka taqdiru wa laa aqdir, wa ta&rsquo;lamu wa laa a&rsquo;lam, wa anta &lsquo;allaam al-ghuyoob. Allaahumma fa in kunta ta&rsquo;lamu haadha&rsquo;l-amra (then the matter should be mentioned by name) khayran li fi &lsquo;aajil amri wa aajilihi (or: fi deeni wa ma&rsquo;aashi wa &lsquo;aaqibati amri) faqdurhu li wa yassirhu li thumma baarik li fihi.

      <video:title><![CDATA[4 Advices For All Sinners]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Once a man came to Ibrahim ibn Adham (may Allah be pleased with him) and said him that I am very depressed. He asked him that why you are depressed, he said that I am not able to control myself please give me something to help me with it.After hearing his story Ibrahim ibn Adham advised him that if you accept five conditions and put them into your practice then your disobedience will cause no harm to you.
The man said that tell me what those conditions are. First condition Ibrahim ibn Adham told him was that when you want to disobey Allah you do not eat anything He provides. The man said that everything in the world is created by ALLAH then how will I get anything to eat. Ibrahim said, &ldquo;Is it right to eat his provision and disobey him at the same time. He said that no it is not right&rdquo;
He then asked the second condition. Ibrahim ibn Adham said: &ldquo;When you want to disobey him, moves away His land.&rdquo;He said thisit is even more difficult. &ldquo;In that case where will I live?&rdquo;Ibrahim ibn Adham said that is it right to eat his provision and to live on His land and at the same time disobey Him? &ldquo;He said. &ldquo;No, it is not right.&rdquo;
The man then asked the third condition?&rdquo; Ibrahim said that when you want to disobey Him in spite of eating His provision and living on His land, find a place where He will not see you and disobey Him there.&rdquo;
The man said that what do you mean, Ibrahim? He knows each and every thing in fact he knows what is hidden and what is not. Ibrahim said: &ldquo;So is it right to disobey Him when you eat His provision and live on His land and when you know that He can see everything you do? The man replied that it certainly is not!&rdquo;
He asked Ibrahim ibn Adham, "Tell me the fourth condition.&rdquo; Ibrahim said: &ldquo;when the Angel of Death arrives to take your soul, you say to him, &lsquo;Give me a reprieve so that I can repent and act righteously for Allah. The man said but he would not listen to me!&rdquo; &ldquo;Then if you cannot ward ...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Women in Islam]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What are the woman&rsquo;s rights like under Islam/ and how have they changed since Islam&rsquo;s golden age (from mid 8th century until 12th century) - if they have changed?.Praise be to Allaah.Islam honours women greatly. It honours women as mothers who must be respected, obeyed and treated with kindness. Pleasing one's mother is regarded as part of pleasing Allaah. Islam tells us that Paradise lies at the mother&rsquo;s feet, i.e. that the best way to reach Paradise is through one's mother. And Islam forbids disobeying one&rsquo;s mother or making her angry, even by saying a mild word of disrespect. The mother&rsquo;s rights are greater than those of the father, and the duty to take care of her grows greater as the mother grows older and weaker. All of that is mentioned in many texts of the Qur'aan and Sunnah Prophetic traditions).
For example, Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And We have enjoined on man to be dutiful and kind to his parents&rdquo;
[al-Ahqaaf 46:15]
&ldquo;And your Lord has decreed that you wor`ship none but Him. And that you be dutiful to your parents. If one of them or both of them attain old age in your life, say not to them a word of disrespect, nor shout at them but address them in terms of honour.
And lower unto them the wing of submission and humility through mercy, and say: &lsquo;My Lord! Bestow on them Your Mercy as they did bring me up when I was young&rsquo;&rdquo;
[al-Isra&rsquo; 17:23, 24]
Ibn Maajah (2781) narrated that Mu&rsquo;aawiyah ibn Jaahimiah al-Sulami (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: I came to the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allaah, I want to go for jihad (battle) with you, seeking thereby the Face of Allaah and the Hereafter. He said, &ldquo;Woe to you! Is your mother still alive?&rdquo; I said, Yes. He said, &ldquo;Go back and honour her.&rdquo; Then I approached him from the other side and said: O Messenger of Allaah, I want to go for jihad with you, seeking thereby the Fa...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Too Much Money, Too Little Time]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Is it one of the signs of the hour that days will pass quickly and will become short?.Praise be to Allaah. Perhaps the questioner is referring to the hadeeth narrated by al-Bukhaari (1036) from Abu Hurayrah who said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;The Hour will not begin until knowledge is taken away, earthquakes increase, time passes quickly, tribulations appear, and there is a lot of haraj, which is killing, killing, and until there will be a lot of wealth among you and it will become abundant.&rdquo;
And Ahmad narrated (10560) that Abu Hurayrah said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;The Hour will not begin until time passes quickly, so a year will be like a month, and a month will be like a week, and a week will be like a day, and a day will be like an hour, and an hour will be like the burning of a braid of palm leaves.&rdquo;
Ibn Katheer said: Its isnaad is (saheeh) according to the conditions of Muslim. And it was classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Jaami&rsquo;, 7422.
These two ahaadeeth indicate that one of the signs of the Hour is that time will pass more quickly.
The scholars differed concerning the meaning of the phrase taqaarub al-zamaan (time passing more quickly). There are many views, the strongest of which is:
That the phrase taqaarub al-zamaan (time passing quickly) may be interpreted literally or metaphorically.
The metaphorical meaning is that barakah (blessing) will disappear from time, which is something that started a long time ago.
This was the view favoured by al-Qaadi &lsquo;Iyaad, al-Nawawi and al-Haafiz ibn Hajar (may Allaah have mercy on them).
Al-Nawawi said: what is meant by its becoming short is that there will be no barakah in it, and that the benefit that a person gets from one day, for example, will be the equivalent of the benefit that he used to get in a single hour.
Al-Haafiz said: The fact of the matter is that what it means is that barakah will disappear from everything, even fr...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Belief in Prophets]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[877-Why-Islam presents the 4th pillar of faith (iman) - belief in Messengers. Muslims must believe that God chose the finest amongst humankind to be Messengers whom He sent to His creation with specific legislations; to worship and obey one God. They come with glad-tidings and warnings to guide humanity to only worship the One that deserves to be worshiped. There are many Prophets and Messengers; no one knows their exact number except God. Muslims must believe in all of them and that they were human; they were not supernatural beings. They do not have any attributes resembling God's. They can neither extend benefit, nor cause harm. They have no control over the universe, nor can they do with it as they please. Muhammad (peace be upon him) was the last and final Messenger; no Messenger will come after him till the Day of Judgement.]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[In the event of what has happened in Kenya today, and has happened in many other countries, how can Islam be called a peaceful religion?Praise be to Allah.Islam is a peaceful religion because Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, has called Himself as-Salaam (the One Free from all defects; this word also means &lsquo;peace&rsquo;), and Islam is His religion that He has approved of for mankind. Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;He is Allah than Whom there is La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He) the King, the Holy, the One Free from all defects, the Giver of security, the Watcher over His creatures, the All-Mighty, the Compeller, the Supreme. Glory be to Allah! (High is He) above all that they associate as partners with Him&rdquo;
[al-Hashr 59:23].
Islam is a peaceful religion because it forbids mischief on earth. Allah, may He be glorified, says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;and do good as Allah has been good to you, and seek not mischief in the land. Verily, Allah likes not the Mufsidoon (those who commit great crimes and sins, oppressors, tyrants, mischief-makers, corrupt)&rdquo;
[al-Qasas 28:77]
&ldquo;Verily, Allah enjoins Al-Adl (i.e. justice and worshipping none but Allah Alone - Islamic Monotheism) and Al-Ihsan (i.e. to be patient in performing your duties to Allah, totally for Allahs sake and in accordance with the Sunnah (legal ways) of the Prophet SAW in a perfect manner), and giving (help) to kith and kin (i.e. all that Allah has ordered you to give them e.g., wealth, visiting, looking after them, or any other kind of help, etc.): and forbids Al-Fahsha (i.e all evil deeds, e.g. illegal sexual acts, disobedience of parents, polytheism, to tell lies, to give false witness, to kill a life without right, etc.), and Al-Munkar (i.e all that is prohibited by Islamic law: polytheism of every kind, disbelief and every kind of evil deeds, etc.), and Al-Baghy (i.e. all kinds of oppression), He admonishes you, that you may ...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)
In addition, Islam is the only religion prevailing over all other religions. Allah states in the Holy Qur&rsquo;an :
&ldquo;To thee We sent the Scripture in the truth, confirming the scripture that came be...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Scientific Facts for the Atheists to Know Islam is the Truth]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Now a days more and more people are leaving religion all together because intelligent people are discovering Major contradictions between Science and Religion.
This is surely not the case with Islam as we will prove in this Show. Any sincere person who is seeking the truth and who puts his prejudices to the side will be amazed by all the Miracles that are mentioned in the Quran and Islam.
Islam means submission to the Creator alone. Islam is the belief that there is only Creator, whose proper name is Allah, which means the one God. Islam is the same message given to all the prophets, from Adam, Noah, Moses, Abraham, Jesus, and finally to the Prophet Muhammad, the last messenger (peace and blessings be upon them). They all brought the same message: worship only God, and stop worshipping human beings and their ideas.

      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)
In addition, Islam is the only religion prevailing over all other religions. Allah states in the Holy Qur&rsquo;an :
&ldquo;To thee We sent the Scripture in the truth, confirming the scripture that came be...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Pastor Arrested After Attacking Qur'an and Islam]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[We know that Christians who adhere to the verses below on love would never preach or be a part of or agree with such hate and intolerance as did this Crazy Pastor in the Video.
"But I say to you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you".Matthew: 5:43
"Master, which is the great commandment in the law? Jesus said unto him, To love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.This is the first and great commandment. And the second is, You shall love your neighbor as yourself. Matthew 22:36
Muslims(Any peaceful persons who has submitted to the Creator alone) and Christians should work together to develop a better understanding of each other and should work towards peace and tolerance and that good work is only made harder to achieve when hate is fostered and promoted.
May the Creator God Almighty the one God the God of Abraham,Noah,Moses,Jesus and Muhammad peace be upon them all guide us all to what is pleasing to him and help us tocome to common terms:
Say: "O People of the Book, come to common terms as between us and you: That we worship none but God; that we associate no partners with him; that we erect not, from among ourselves, Lords and patrons other than God." If then they turn back, then say: "Bear witness that we are Muslims (bowing to God's Will). Quran 3:64
Islam means submission to God. Islam is the belief that there is only One God, whose proper name is Allah, which means the God. Islam is the same message given to all the prophets, from Adam, Noah, Moses, Abraham, Jesus, and finally to the Prophet Muhammad, the last messenger (peace and blessings be upon them). They all brought the same message: worship only God, and stop worshipping human beings and their ideas.

      <video:description><![CDATA[[ And Sulaim&acirc;n (Solomon) inherited (the knowledge of) Daw&ucirc;d (David). He said: "O mankind! We have been taught the language of birds, and on us have been bestowed all things. This, verily, is an evident grace (from All&acirc;h)."] (27:18)
Today Science is answering the ignorant Christians:
Quote "Further analysis of this noise showed that it was a simplified version of the more complex adult sound. It was as if the mature pupae were saying, "Help!" while the adults were saying "Hey, I'm over here! Please come help! It's your friend!". "
http://news.sciencemag.org/sciencenow/2013/02/shhh-the-ants-are-talking.html
One miracle of these Miracles is enough to make you embrace Islam - Ants speak - Pharaoh's Body - Iron - Developmental Stages of The Human Being - Forelock - Byzantine (Roman) Empire's Victory - The Expanding Universe - Fingertips ....... and the miracles never stop, wait for more Will you be bold to step this step towards the truth? or your arrogance will stop you? It's your choice and Allah has gave each one of us the will to choose what we want, It's part of our freedom.
I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Satan.
Say: "Tell me, if it (the Qur'&acirc;n) is from All&acirc;h, and you disbelieve in it, who is more astray than one who is in opposition far away (from All&acirc;h's Right Path and His obedience). (52)
We will show them Our Signs in the universe, and in their own selves, until it becomes manifest to them that this (the Qur'&acirc;n) is the truth. Is it not sufficient in regard to your Lord that He is a Witness over all things? (53)
Verily, they are in doubt concerning the Meeting with their Lord? (i.e. Resurrection after their death, and their return to their Lord).
Verily! He it is Who is surrounding all things! (54)

As Ramadan begins, more than 100 hunger-strikers in Guant&aacute;namo Bay continue their protest. More than 40 of them are being force-fed. A leaked document sets out the military instructions, or standard operating procedure, for force-feeding detainees. In this four-minute film made by Human Rights organisation Reprieve and Bafta award-winning director Asif Kapadia, US actor and rapper Yasiin Bey (formerly known as Mos Def), experiences the procedure.
Warning: some viewers may find these images distressing.

      <video:description><![CDATA[Could you please write me something inspirational that will lift my iman. I do the basics required by me pray fast, make dua, read islamic literature be good to my parents, give sadaqa but I just don't feel like I'm doing anything extra, or striving and making jihad. Please help me.Praise be to Allaah. On this site there is an essay entitled &ldquo;Weakness of Faith, which gives a detailed description of the weakness of faith that many people suffer, and explains the causes and the remedy. We advise you to read it. Here is the link:
[http://63.175.194.25/books/dofuleeman/english.html].
There follow two pieces of advice from major scholars, in addition to the above, summing up what is required on your part:
1 &ndash; We advise you to read Qur&rsquo;aan a great deal, listen to its recitation and ponder the meanings of what you read and listen to, as much as you can. If you find anything difficult to understand then ask the scholars in your country or write to other Sunni scholars for advice.
We also advise you to remember Allaah a great deal (dhikr) with the dhikrs narrated in the saheeh ahaadeeth, such as &ldquo;Laa ilaaha ill-Allaah (there is no god except Allaah)&rdquo;, &ldquo;Subhaan-Allaah wa&rsquo;l-hamdu Lillaah wa laa ilaaha ill-Allaah wa Allaahu akbar (Glory be to Allaah, praise be to Allaah, there is no god except Allaah and Allaah is Most Great)&rdquo;, and so on. For more information on this see al-Kalim al-Tayyib by Ibn Taymiyah; al-Waabil al-Sayyib by Ibn al-Qayyim; Riyaadh al-Saaliheen [available in English]; al-Adhkaar al-Nawawiyyah by Imaam al-Nawawi, and so on.
Remembering Allaah (dhikr) increases faith and brings peace of mind. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;verily, in the remembrance of Allaah do hearts find rest&rdquo;
[al-Ra&rsquo;d 13:28]
Regularly perform acts of worship such as prayer, fasting and the other pillars of Islam, whilst hoping for the mercy of Allaah and putting your trust in Him in all your affairs. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

      <video:description><![CDATA[877-Why-Islam presents the story of Sr. Zainab Ismail, nicknamed the Sheikha of the health and fitness industry. She is a fitness and nutrition expert who has had many celebrities from Hollywood and sports as her clients. But a series of events over a few years, brought her to Islam by the Mercy of Allah SWT. Her yearning for the closeness to Allah led her to accept Islam not once but twice. She shares the importance of supporting new Muslims and accommodating them in our communities.

According to WhyIslam's 2012 annual report, 19 percent of the some 3,000 converts it assisted in 2011 were Latinos, and more than half of those (55 percent) were women.&nbsp;]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Secrets of a Muslim Woman - #UnveilTheMystery]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[When people see a Muslim woman on the street, covered from head to toe, exposing nothing but her eyes or her face and hands, all sorts of thoughts enter their minds. Their feelings range from curiosity and pity, to complete horror at what looks like a religion that oppresses women.
What doesn't really seem to add up is that even though Islam seems to be the least appealing way of life for women, more and more intelligent, educated, independent women are actually choosing to become Muslim.
Now why would they want to do that?]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[The Purpose of Life]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Why was mankind created?Praise be to Allaah.Firstly:
One of the greatest attributes of Allaah is wisdom, and one of His greatest names is al-Hakeem (the most Wise). It should be noted that He has not created anything in vain; exalted be Allaah far above such a thing. Rather He creates things for great and wise reasons, and for sublime purposes. Those who know them know them and those who do not know them do not know them. Allaah has stated that in His Holy Book, where He says that He has not created mankind in vain, and He has not created the heavens and the earth in vain. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Did you think that We had created you in play (without any purpose), and that you would not be brought back to Us?&rdquo;
So Exalted be Allaah, the True King: Laa ilaaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), the Lord of the Supreme Throne!&rdquo;
[al-Mu&rsquo;minoon 23:115, 116]
&ldquo;We created not the heavens and the earth and all that is between them for a (mere) play&rdquo;
[al-Anbiya&rsquo; 21:16]
&ldquo;And We created not the heavens and the earth, and all that is between them, for mere play.
We created them not except with truth (i.e. to examine and test those who are obedient and those who are disobedient and then reward the obedient ones and punish the disobedient ones), but most of them know not&rdquo;
[al-Dukhaan 44:38]
&ldquo;HaaMeem.
[These letters are one of the miracles of the Qur&rsquo;aan, and none but Allaah (Alone) knows their meanings.]
The revelation of the Book (this Qur&rsquo;aan) is from Allaah, the AllMighty, the AllWise.
We created not the heavens and the earth and all that is between them except with truth, and for an appointed term. But those who disbelieve, turn away from that whereof they are warned&rdquo;
[al-Ahqaaf 46:1-3]
Just as it is proven that there is wisdom behind the creation of man from the standpoint of sharee&rsquo;ah (Islamic law), it is also proven from the standpoint of reason. The wise man cannot but accept that things have b...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Amazing Dream That Transformed a Denominational Pastor]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.

&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)

      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.

      <video:description><![CDATA[A wonderful Q&amp;A session with Nouman Ali Khan on TheDeenShow.
What is the meaning of belief in al-Qadar (the divine will and decree)?.Praise be to Allaah. Qadar means that Allaah has decreed everything that happens in the universe according to His prior knowledge and the dictates of His wisdom.
Belief in al-Qadar includes four things:
1 &ndash; The belief that Allaah knows all things, in general and in detail, from eternity to eternity, whether that has to do with His actions or the actions of His slaves.
2 &ndash; The belief that Allaah has written that in al-Lawh al-Mahfooz (the Book of Decrees).
Concerning these two matters Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Know you not that Allaah knows all that is in the heaven and on the earth? Verily, it is (all) in the Book (Al‑Lawh Al‑Mahfooz). Verily, that is easy for Allaah&rdquo;[al-Hajj 22:70]
In Saheeh Muslim (2653) it is narrated that &lsquo;Abd-Allaah ibn &lsquo;Amr ibn al-&lsquo;Aas (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: I heard the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) say: &ldquo;Allaah wrote down the decrees of creation fifty thousand years before He created the heavens and the earth.&rdquo;
And the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;The first thing that Allaah created was the Pen, and He said to it, &lsquo;Write!&rsquo; It said, &lsquo;O Lord, what should I write?&rsquo; He said: &lsquo;Write down the decrees of all things until the Hour begins.&rdquo; Narrated by Abu Dawood, 4700; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh Abi Dawood.
3 &ndash; The belief that whatever happens only happens by the will of Allaah &ndash; whether that has to do with His actions or the actions of created beings.
Allaah says concerning His actions (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And your Lord creates whatsoever He wills and chooses&rdquo;
[al-Qasas 28:68]
&ldquo;and Allaah does what He wills&rdquo;
[Ibraaheem 14:27]
&ldquo;He it is Who shapes you in the wombs as He wills&rdqu...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[The Qur'an on Human Embryonic Development]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[The miracle of embryonic development is mentioned in the Quran in such minute detail, much of which was unknown to scientists until only recently. It mentions the first stages of life after conception, the second stage of life after conception, and witnesses of scientists about these scientific facts of the Quran.

In the Holy Quran, God speaks about the stages of man&rsquo;s embryonic development:

&ldquo;We created man from an extract of clay. Then We made him as a drop in a place of settlement, firmly fixed. Then We made the drop into an alaqah (leech, suspended thing, and blood clot), then We made the alaqah into a mudghah(chewed substance)&hellip;&rdquo; (Quran 23:12-14)

 Literally, the Arabic word alaqah has three meanings: (1) leech, (2) suspended thing, and (3) blood clot.

In comparing a leech to an embryo in the alaqah stage, we find similarity between the two as we can see in figure 1. Also, the embryo at this stage obtains nourishment from the blood of the mother, similar to the leech, which feeds on the blood of others.



Figure 1: Drawings illustrating the similarities in appearance between a leech and a human embryo at the alaqah stage. (Leech drawing from Human Development as Described in the Quran and Sunnah, Moore and others, p. 37, modified from Integrated Principles of Zoology, Hickman and others. Embryo drawing from The Developing Human, Moore and Persaud, 5th ed., p. 73.)&nbsp;

The second meaning of the word alaqah is &ldquo;suspended thing.&rdquo; This is what we can see in figures 2 and 3, the suspension of the embryo, during the alaqahstage, in the womb of the mother.



Figure 2: We can see in this diagram the suspension of an embryo during the alaqahstage in the womb (uterus) of the mother. (The Developing Human, Moore and Persaud, 5th ed., p. 66.)



Figure 3: In this photomicrograph, we can see the suspension of an embryo (marked B) during the alaqah stage (about 15 days old) in the womb of the mother. The actual size of the embryo is about 0.6 mm. (The Developing Human, Moore, ...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Divorce in Islam and How to Avoid It]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[what are a wife's rights on her husband according the Quran and Sunnah? or what are a husbands duties to his wife and viceversa?Praise be to Allaah.
Islam has enjoined upon the husband duties towards his wife, and vice versa, and among these duties are some which are shared by both husband and wife.
We will mention &ndash; by the help of Allaah &ndash; some of the texts of the Qur&rsquo;aan and Sunnah which have to do with the duties of the spouses towards one another, quoting also from the commentaries and views of the scholars.
Firstly:
The rights of the wife which are hers alone:
The wife has financial rights over her husband, which are the mahr (dowry), spending and accommodation.
And she has non-financial rights, such as fair division between co-wives, being treated in a decent and reasonable manner, and not being treated in a harmful way by her husband.
1. Financial rights
(a) The mahr (dowry). This is the money to which the wife is entitled from her husband when the marriage contract is completed or when the marriage is consummated. It is a right which the man is obliged to pay to the woman. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And give to the women (whom you marry) their Mahr (obligatory bridal-money given by the husband to his wife at the time of marriage) with a good heart&rdquo; [al-Nisaa&rsquo; 4:4]
The prescription of the mahr demonstrates the seriousness and importance of the marriage-contract, and is a token of respect and honour to the woman.
The mahr is not a condition or essential part of the marriage-contract, according to the majority of fuqahaa&rsquo;; rather it is one of the consequences of the contract. If the marriage-contract is done without any mention of the mahr, it is still valid, according to the consensus of the majority, because Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;There is no sin on you, if you divorce women while yet you have not touched (had sexual relation with) them, nor appointed unto them their Mahr (bridal-money given by the husb...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[The War Within Our Hearts]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[I have always heard that music, singing and dancing are haram in Islam. I went to this other site for the first time,XXX, and typed in music and all of these articles appeared which said music,dancing, and singing in Islam is halal??? They said "as long as the 2 sexes are not close together and their is no drinking going on" etc. and they even have hadiths that try to prove our Prophet Muhammed s.a.w was ok with this??? I am very confused now... Could you PLEASE give a full, detailed explanation about the Islamic ruling on music, singing and dancing and when it is allowed, if it is even allowed at all.Praise be to Allaah.
Ma&rsquo;aazif is the plural of mi&rsquo;zafah, and refers to musical instruments (Fath al-Baari, 10/55), instruments which are played (al-Majmoo&rsquo;, 11/577). Al-Qurtubi (may Allaah have mercy on him) narrated from al-Jawhari (may Allaah have mercy on him) that ma&rsquo;aazif means singing. In his Sihaah it says that it means musical instruments. It was also said that it refers to the sound of the instruments. In al-Hawaashi by al-Dimyaati (may Allaah have mercy on him) it says: ma&rsquo;aazif means drums (dufoof, sing. daff) and other instruments which are struck or beaten (Fath al-Baari, 10/55).
Evidence of prohibition in the Qur&rsquo;aan and Sunnah:
Allaah says in Soorat Luqmaan (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And of mankind is he who purchases idle talks (i.e. music, singing) to mislead (men) from the path of Allaah&hellip;&rdquo; [Luqmaan 31:6]
The scholar of the ummah, Ibn &lsquo;Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: this means singing. Mujaahid (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: this means playing the drum (tabl). (Tafseer al-Tabari, 21/40).
Al-Hasan al-Basri (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: this aayah was revealed concerning singing and musical instruments (lit. woodwind instruments). (Tafseer Ibn Katheer, 3/451).
Al-Sa&rsquo;di (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: this includes all manner of haraam speech, all idle talk and falsehood, and all nonsens...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[New images have been found revealing amazing truths behind verses in the Quran that depict the embryonic development. The Quran is said to be the word of God ( Allah ) and such miraculous phenomena are used to authenticate this statement. The Quran claims that the embryo is a "Alaqah" which means either a blood clot, suspended or leech like structure. We put this statement to the test."To see any detail in it as is described in the Qur'an, I need an instrument that wasn't developed until the 1700s" Dr. E Marshall JohnsonFor further reading please visit:http://www.onereason.org/wp-content/u...http://islampapers.com/2012/02/09/ala...References&nbsp;[1] Moore, K.L., A Scientist's Interpretation of References to Embryology in the Qur'an, Journal of the Islamic Medical Association of North America, Vol. 18, No. 1-2, 1986, p. 16.[2] Mary J.

      <video:title><![CDATA[Boston Bombing Official Response]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[In view of the critical situation which we Muslims are now facing in America, with aggression &ndash; which may reach the point of killing &ndash; shots being fired at mosques, women with hijaab being harassed in the streets, assaults against Muslim students in schools and universities, persecution of some Muslim employees in their workplaces, all because of the recent events in which some Muslim persons are being accused of causing explosions in the capital and elsewhere, we want to ask whether it is permissible for us to forego praying in jamaa&rsquo;ah or praying Jumu&rsquo;ah in the mosque? And what about our women&rsquo;s hijaab? And what is the ruling on us foregoing Islamic dress?Praise be to Allaah and blessings and peace be upon the Messenger of Allaah.
What we have heard about what our Muslim brothers are going through in kaafir countries in the north and the south, where they are being harassed and persecuted for something in which they did not take part and in which they played no role, is not strange, given the wrongdoing and hatred of the kuffaar, even though they claim to be the people of justice, fairness and freedom. What is the crime of a Muslim woman who walks down the street in her hijaab? What is the crime of a Muslim who leaves his home to go and pray, not to spread mischief in the land? What is the crime of a Muslim employee who goes to his company or a student who goes to his university or a schoolgirl who is walking to her school, not going out to bomb and destroy? If the western man in the street was fair-minded &ndash; at least with himself &ndash; he would go and take revenge on the people who plotted and took part in harming him. But one who does not fear God could do anything, and the very least that the Muslims will be faced with is curses and insults. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;and you shall certainly hear much that will grieve you from those who received the Scripture before you (Jews and Christians) and from those who ascribe partners to Allaah; but ...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Girls Beware: How Boys "Manufacture" Plans]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[I am deeply in love with a Muslim man and want to marry him. I know that Allah forbids girlfriend-boyfriend relationships, and feel very sorry in my heart for our relationship. I feel that because we have been in this relationship which is abhorred by Allah, he will never marry me because he has lost respect for me. What does the Quaran say about this?Praise be to Allaah.
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;&hellip; Wed them with the permission of their own folk and give them their mahr (dowry) according to what is reasonable; they should be chaste, not adulterous, nor taking boyfriends&hellip;&rdquo; [al-Nisaa&rsquo; 4:25]
In his commentary on this aayah, Ibn Katheer (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
&ldquo;Muhsanaat [translated as &ldquo;chaste&rdquo;] means that they should be pure, not indulging in zinaa (unlawful sexual conduct), hence they are described as not being musaafihaat, which means promiscuous women who do not refuse anyone who wants to commit immoral acts with them. Regarding the phrase wa laa muttakhidhaati akhdaan (&lsquo;nor taking boyfriends&rsquo;), Ibn &lsquo;Abbaas said: &lsquo;al-musaafihaat means those who are known to commit zinaa, meaning those who will not refuse anyone who wants to commit immoral acts with them.&rsquo; Ibn &lsquo;Abbaas also said: &lsquo;muttakhidhaati akhdaan means lovers.&rsquo; A similar interpretation was narrated from Abu Hurayrah, Mujaahid, al-Sha&rsquo;bi, al-Dahhaak, &lsquo;Ataa&rsquo; al-Khurasaani, Yahyaa ibn Abi Katheer, Muqaatil ibn Hayyaan and al-Saddi. They said: (it means) lovers. Al-Hasan al-Basri said: &lsquo;It means a (male) friend.&rsquo; Al-Dahhaak also said: &lsquo;wa laa muttakhidhaati akhdaan also means a woman who has just one boyfriend or lover with whom she is happy. Allaah has also forbidden this, meaning marrying her so long as she is in that situation&hellip;&rsquo;&rdquo;
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Made lawful to you this day are al-tayyibaat [all kinds of halaal (lawful) foods&hellip;...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)
In addition, Islam is the only religion prevailing over all other religions. Allah states in the Holy Qur&rsquo;an :

      <video:description><![CDATA[I would like to no if it is haram to go to the sydney royal easter show. although it is called the easter show it really has nothing to d with easter. i like to go for the craft, fruit, animal shows, they all hav nothing to do with easter.Praise be to Allaah.It is not permissible for a Muslim to take part in the festivals and innovated celebrations of the kuffaar, such as Easter, Christmas and so on, because taking part and attending is helping in this evil, and increasing their numbers, and imitating them, all of which is not allowed. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Help you one another in Al‑Birr and At‑Taqwa (virtue, righteousness and piety); but do not help one another in sin and transgression. And fear Allaah. Verily, Allaah is Severe in punishment&rdquo;
[al-Maa&rsquo;idah 5:2]
And the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Whoever imitates a people is one of them.&rdquo; Narrated by Abu Dawood (4031); classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Irwa&rsquo; al-Ghaleel (5/109).
Ibn al-Qayyim said:
It is not permissible for the Muslims to attend the festivals of the mushrikeen, according to the consensus of the scholars whose words carry weight. The fuqaha&rsquo; who follow the four schools of thought have stated this clearly in their books&hellip; Al-Bayhaqi narrated with a saheeh isnaad from &lsquo;Umar ibn al-Khattaab that he said: &ldquo;Do not enter upon the mushrikeen in their churches on the day of their festival, for divine wrath is descending upon them.&rdquo; And &lsquo;Umar also said: &ldquo;Avoid the enemies of Allaah on their festivals.&rdquo; Al-Bayhaqi narrated with a jayyid isnaad from &lsquo;Abd-Allaah ibn &lsquo;Amr that he said: &ldquo;Whoever settles in the land of the non-Arabs and celebrates their new year and festival and imitates them until he dies in that state, will be gathered with them on the Day of Resurrection.&rdquo; (Ahkaam Ahl al-Dhimmah, 1/723-724)

      <video:title><![CDATA[Replacements - Lesson From Surah AL-Ikhlas]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah.
Firstly, the better-known names and numbers of the soorahs about which you ask are as follows:
Soorah al-hamdu is Soorat al-Faatihah (the Opening), soorah #1
Soorah Innaa fatahnaa is Soorat al-Fath (the Victory), soorah #48
Allaahu&rsquo;s-Samad is Soorat al-Ikhlaas (the Purity), soorah #112
&lsquo;Amma yatasaa&rsquo;aloon is Soorat al-Naba&rsquo; (the Great News), soorah #78
The aayah &ldquo;La ilaaha illa anta subhaanaka innee kuntu min al-zaalimeen (None has the right to be worshipped except You [O Allaah]. Glorified (and Exalted) are You. Truly, I have been of the wrong-doers)&rdquo; is from Soorat al-Anbiyaa&rsquo;, Soorah 21, aayah 87.
A word of warning: The book Dalaa&rsquo;il al-Khayraat contains da&rsquo;eef (weak) and fabricated ahaadeeth, and prescribes things that are contrary to the truth, so it is not right for anyone to rely on this book.
Secondly, a translation of the Qur&rsquo;aan in English or any other language is not counted as Qur&rsquo;aan itself, and the rulings that apply to Qur&rsquo;aan do not apply to it. The Qur&rsquo;aan is the Word of Allaah which was revealed in the Arabic tongue.
Thirdly, al-Ahad (the One) and al-Samad (the Self-Sufficient) are two of the great Names of Allaah.
Fourthly, stating that Soorat al-Ikhlaas should be recited 500 times, and that the aayah (interpretation of the meaning) &ldquo;La ilaaha illa anta subhaanaka innee kuntu min al-zaalimeen (None has the right to be worshipped except You [O Allaah]. Glorified (and Exalted) are You. Truly, I have been of the wrong-doers)&rdquo; [al-Anbiyaa&rsquo; 21:87] should be recited 100 times is a practice that has no basis whatsoever in the Qur&rsquo;aan or the Sunnah of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), so it is not right to adhere to these numbers. You should act upon the sound ahaadeeth that describe the virtues of this soorah and this aayah. These reports include the following:
From Qutaadah ibn al-Nu&rsquo;maan (may Allaah be pleased with him) who said that a man stayed ...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Too Lazy To Pray Salah?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What is Description of the Prophet&rsquo;s prayer ?.Praise be to Allah1 &ndash; Facing the direction of the Ka&rsquo;bah
1- When you stand up to pray, face the direction of the Ka&rsquo;bah wherever you are, in both fard (obligatory) and naafil (supererogatory) prayers. This is one of the pillars of prayer, without which prayer is not valid.
2- The obligation of facing the direction of prayer does not apply to one who is engaged in warfare, when he prays the fear prayer (salaat al-khawf) or is engaged in heavy fighting. It also does not apply to those who are unable to do it, such as one who is sick, or one who is traveling on a ship, in a car or on a plane, if they fear that the time of the prayer will elapse (before they reach a place where they can find the correct direction). And it does not apply to one who is praying a naafil prayer or witr prayer whilst riding on a riding-animal etc., but it is mustahabb for him to face the qiblah if he is able to do so when pronouncing the takbeer of ihraam (at the beginning of the prayer), then he may face whatever direction he is facing.
3- Everyone who can see the Ka&rsquo;bah must face it; those who cannot see it must face its direction.
Ruling on not facing the Ka&rsquo;bah in prayer by mistake:
4- If a person prays not facing the qiblah, because of clouds [preventing him from working out the direction from the position of the sun] or some other reason, after he did his best to work out the right direction, his prayer is valid and he does not have to repeat it.
5- If someone whom he trusts comes &ndash; whilst he is praying &ndash; and tells him of the right direction, then he must hasten to turn that way, and his prayer is valid.
2 &ndash; Qiyaam (standing in prayer)
6- It is obligatory to pray standing. This is a pillar (essential part of prayer), except for the one who is praying the fear prayer or at times of intense fighting, when it is permitted to pray whilst riding; for the one who is sick and unable to stand, who should pray sitting if he is able, otherwi...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Important Advice for Those New to the Deen]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[My questions involves many things. I am a very new convert and at first I was praying all prayers as best I could (I dont know Arabic) Someone told me I should only speak in Arabic, so in the end I have stopped praying. I think of Allah many times in the day and follow the teachings but some things I know are wrong i cannot stop. Since Allah called me, I have improved my life immensely and am happier than i have been in a very long time. I used to be drunk every day but now I almost don&rsquo;t drink at all. I used to gamble all my money but now I almost don&rsquo;t gamble at all when I do these wrong things I can feel it is wrong and don&rsquo;t want to go back to my old ways. I can feel Allah is guiding me in ways I don&rsquo;t understand. I dont feel guilty I just feel why am I doing this. I have asked a few Muslim people I work with and even a person I met online to teach me to pray properly and help me in other ways but because I am Australian they don&rsquo;t feel I am being serious about being Muslim so they have been reluctant I am not a good person I think but I am much better than I have been and with His help an guidance I know I will succeed. There are many things for me to learn.Please give me your advise; should I keep trying by myself,or continue to seek help from other Muslims even though they seem not to want to.Praise be to Allaah. Praise be to Allaah first and last, and thanks be to Him always. He blesses whomsoever He will with guidance, and deprives whomsoever He will of happiness. He saves His slave from misguidance and supports His close friends until the Hour begins.
My dear Muslim brother, congratulations on your being blessed with guidance. We ask Allaah to make you steadfast until death.
It was a great achievement when you decided to embrace Islam and give up the misguidance in which you had grown up and the shirk [association of others with Allaah] which is forbidden. We welcome you as a new brother in Islam and we welcome you as a visitor to this site.
First of all, we would rem...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[With regard to Islam, what is the soul? For instance, who created the soul, and what limitations does it have?Praise be to Allaah.
Allaah is the Creator of all things, and the soul is something that has been created just like everything else. The knowledge about its true essence is something that belongs exclusively to Allaah, may He be glorified and exalted. Allaah has kept this knowledge exclusively to Himself, as is stated in the hadeeth of &lsquo;Abd-Allaah ibn Mas&rsquo;ood (may Allaah be pleased with him), who said: &ldquo;Whilst I was with the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) on a farm, and he was resting on a palm branch stripped of its leaves, the Jews passed by, and some of them said to others, &lsquo;Ask him about the soul.&rsquo; Some of them said, &lsquo;What urges you to ask him about it?&rsquo; Others of them said, &lsquo;Don&rsquo;t ask him in case he says something you dislike.&rsquo; But they said, &lsquo;Ask him,&rsquo; so they asked him about the soul. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) kept quiet and did not respond to them, and I knew that he was receiving Revelation, so I stayed where I was. When the Revelation of the aayah was complete, he said (interpretation of the meaning): &lsquo;And they ask you [O Muhammad] concerning the rooh [the spirit]. Say: &lsquo;The rooh: it is one of the things, the knowledge of which is only with my Lord. And of knowledge, you (mankind) have been given only a little.&rsquo; [al-Isra&rsquo; 17:85]&rdquo; (Reported by al-Bukhaari). The rooh (soul or spirit) has been described by Allaah in His Book and by the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) in his Sunnah, and various verbs and adjectives have been used in conjunction with the word &lsquo;rooh&rsquo;, such as seizing or grasping, taking (as in death), it may be fettered or shrouded, it comes and goes, it goes up and comes down, it may be pulled out like a hair being pulled out of dough&hellip; It is obligatory (in Islam) to believe in these attrib...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Jummah Khutbah "Does Allah Love?" by Abu Mussab Wajdi Akkari
_____________________
ABOUT THE SPEAKER -
Abu Mussab Wajdi Akkari was born in Lebanon in a Muslim family, at the age of 18 he moved to the United States. He joined a underground rap group called "Scums of the Earth" who were all Buddhists so he also became a Buddhists.
After around 5 years of leading a life of problems he decided to make some changes in his life so he started work with a Muslim brother this is when he first came into proper contact with Islam and from this time onwards his love for Islam grow more and more.
His life started to change slowly and he eventually met a brother who studies at Madinah Islamic University thereby guiding him to the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah exalt his mention. He would spend time with Abu Mussab teaching him the basics and giving him all kinds of authentic Islamic books. Before he returned to Madinah after the summer vacation, he led Abu Mussab to a Masjid where Sheikh Abu Mujaahid Fareed Abdullaah, who graduated from Imam University in Riyadh, was the Imam. It is there where Abu Mussab learned the sound Aqeedah, Fiqh, Traditional Arabic and other Islamic sciences.
Eventually Abu Mussab decided to migrate to Saudi with his wife and children and Allah facilitated that by His Grace and Mercy. When he came here to Jeddah, he got involved in the Da'wah Center and eventually worked for them full-time thus providing him with the time and means to enhance his Da'wah skills and further his knowledge in the Deen. This is besides the classes and the lectures he attend here conducted by various Shuyookh upon the Sunnah.

      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)
In addition, Islam is the only religion prevailing over all other religions. Allah states in the Holy Qur&rsquo;an :
&ldquo;To thee We sent the Scripture in the truth, confirming the scripture that came be...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[How to can one obtain success and prosperity in this world and the hereafterHereafter.What kind of success or prosperity that does iIslam want the ummah iIslamto gain in this world.Praise be to Allah.Peace of mind, contentment, happiness and freedom from worries and anxiety&hellip; these are what everyone wants, and these are the ways in which people can have a good life and find complete happiness and joy. There are religious means of achieving this, and natural and practical means, but no one can combine all of them except the believers; although other people may achieve some of them, they will miss out on others.
Here follows a summary of the means of achieving this aim for which everyone is striving. In some cases, those who achieve many of them will live a joyful life and a good life; in other cases, those who fail to achieve all of them will live a life of misery and hardship. And there are others which are in between, according to the means they are able to attain. These means include the following:
1 &ndash; Faith and righteous deeds:
This is the greatest and most fundamental of means. Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Whoever works righteousness &mdash; whether male or female &mdash; while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to him We will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and We shall pay them certainly a reward in proportion to the best of what they used to do (i.e. Paradise in the Hereafter).&rdquo;
[al-Nahl 16:97]
Allah tells us and promises us that whoever combines faith with righteous deeds will have a good life and a good reward in this world and in the Hereafter.
The reason for this is clear: those who believe in Allah &ndash; with sincere faith that motivates them to do righteous deeds that change hearts and attitudes and guides them to the straight path in this world and the Hereafter &ndash; follow principles and guidelines by means of which they deal with everything that happens to them, be it the ca...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)
In addition, Islam is the only religion prevailing over all other religions. Allah states in the Holy Qur&rsquo;an :
&ldquo;To thee We sent the Scripture in the truth, confirming the scripture that came be...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Focusing On the Pleasure of Your Creator]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What are the indications of Allah&rsquo;s love for his worshippers and how can we achieve it.Praise be to Allah.Almighty Allah said (what means): &ldquo;Say (O Muhammad): &ldquo;if you (really) love Allah then follow me (i.e. accept Islamic monotheism, follow the Quran and Sunnah), Allah will love you and forgive you your sins. And Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.&rdquo; [3:31].
Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: &lsquo;if Allah loves a person, He calls Jibrael saying, &rsquo;Allah loves so and so; O Jibrael love him.&rsquo; And make an announcement amongst the inhabitants of the heaven: &ldquo;Allah loves so and so therefore you should love him also, and so all the inhabitants of the heaven would love him, and then he is granted the pleasures of the people on the earth.&rdquo; [Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that Allah&rsquo;s Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said that Allah said: &ldquo;I will declare war against him who shows hostility to a pious worshipper of mine. And the most beloved things with which My slave comes nearer to Me, is what I have enjoined upon him; and My worshipper keeps on coming close to Me through performing Nawafil (praying or doing extra deeds besides what is obligatory) till I love him, then I become his sense of hearing with which he hears, and his sense of sight with which he sees, and his hands with which he grips, and his legs with which he walks; and if he asks Me, I will give him, and if he asks My protection (refuge), I will protect him.&rdquo; [Al-Bukhari].
A-The Excellence of Reciting the Quran
1. Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that he heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) saying: &ldquo;Read the Quran (regularly) for it will act as an intercessor for its readers on the Day of Resurrection.&rdquo; [ Muslim].

      <video:title><![CDATA[Dog's Rights in Islam]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Keeping a dog is najis &amp; - If a muslim man keep dog just to guard the house, outside the house - put the dog at the end of the compound, how should he cleans himself, what if he cannot find any earth or mud to clean himself, is there other alternative way of cleaning himself? [sometime, he take the dog for jogging, pat the dog, kiss the dog etc] .Praise be to Allaah.Firstly:
Islam forbids Muslims to keep dogs, and the punishment for that is that the one who does that loses one or two qiraats from his hasanaat (good deeds) each day. An exception has been made in the case of keeping dogs for hunting, guarding livestock and guarding crops.
It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Whoever keeps a dog, except a dog for herding, hunting or farming, one qiraat will be deducted from his reward each day.&rdquo; Narrated by Muslim, 1575.
It was narrated that &lsquo;Abd-Allaah ibn &lsquo;Umar (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Whoever keeps a dog, except a dog for herding livestock or a dog that is trained for hunting, two qiraats will be deducted from his reward each day.&rdquo; Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 5163; Muslim, 1574.
Is it permissible to keep a dog to guard houses?
Al-Nawawi said:
There is a difference of opinion as to whether it is permissible to keep dogs for purposes other than these three, such as for guarding houses and roads. The most correct view is that it is permissible, by analogy with these three and based on the reason that is to be understood from the hadeeth, which is necessity. End quote.
Sharh Muslim, 10/236
Shaykh Ibn &lsquo;Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
Based on this, if a house is in the middle of the city there is no need to keep a dog to guard it, so keeping a dog for this purpose in such situations is haraam and is not permitted, and it detracts one or two qiraats from a person&rsquo;s rewa...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Growing Up Muslim in the West (Part 1)]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What advice can you give to the Muslims in the west in the current situation in which the Muslim ummah finds itself? How can we fulfil our Islamic duties and please Allaah?.Praise be to Allaah. 1- Our advice to our Muslim brothers who are living in the west &ndash; now &ndash; is the same as the advice that Allaah gave to the first and the last, which is to fear Allaah and to do that which is enjoined by Allaah and His Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), and to avoid that which is forbidden by Allaah and His Messenger.
2- Do not stay there, except for those of you who are forced to stay or who need to do so, because they have no other place to go, or because they are sick and need treatment, or they are active in da&rsquo;wah, calling people to Islam; or if you are natives of that land and can practise your religion openly. You know your situation better than we do and you have seen for yourselves how the west has shown its true colours with regard to so-called religious freedom and freedom of self-expression. That has become permissible for all religions except Islam, and for all people except the Muslims; the heads of some of these states have even dared to issue laws forbidding Muslim women to wear hijab in public schools.
3- If you have no alternative but to stay in those countries, then strive not to raise your children there; send them to a Muslim country, to their families or to Islamic centres that will take care of them and educate them. No matter how great the corruption in Muslim countries, it cannot compare to the kufr and permissiveness that exists in the west, except in a few rare cases.
4- You have to present a correct image of Islam by adhering to its rituals, morals and ways. Many countries were won over by Muslim merchants who dealt in a good and kind manner with people, so that the gave a good image of Islam and countries became Muslim at their hands whose inhabitants number in the tens of millions.

___________________
ABOUT THE SPEAKER -
Abdur Raheem Green was born in Dar-es-salaam in Tanzania. His father was a colonial administrator in the then extant British Empire. By the time he was walking the old colonies were getting their independence, and his family moved back to the UK. He was sent to a Roman Catholic Monastic boarding school, Gilling Castle and then onto Ampleforth College. It was there that he really started to question what life was all about and how much sense the traditions he was being brought up with really made.
It was while he was working in the City (London) that his delving into every aspect of spirituality, philosophy and psychology came to a head. It was then when he picked up a copy of the Quran and upon reading it he was convinced that it was revelation from God, and thus started his journey into Islam. This was in 1987. Since that time he has been involved in letting others know about Islam.
He is well known for his efforts at the renowned "Speaker's Corner" in London's Hyde Park. Currently, he is engaged in different activities including media work (Peace TV and Islam Channel)

      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)
In addition, Islam is the only religion prevailing over all other religions. Allah states in the Holy Qur&rsquo;an :

&nbsp;
Praise be to Allaah Who has made good dear to you; we ask Him to increase you in guidance and faith, and to guide your parents to practise Islam and adhere to its rulings.&nbsp;
With regard to the Quraan and the proof that it is the word of Allaah, these are specious arguments which were put forward out of stubbornness and arrogance by the first kaafirs to whom the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) was sent. Allaah refuted what they said in many ways, proving their words to be false and pointing out what was wrong with it. For example:&nbsp;
1- This Quraan is challenge from Allaah to mankind and the jinn to produce anything like it, but they were unable to. Then He challenged them to produce only ten soorahs like it, and they were unable to. Then He challenged them to produce something like the shortest soorah in the Quraan, and they could not do it, even though those who were being challenged were the most eloquent and well-spoken of mankind, and the Quraan was revealed in their language. Yet despite that they stated that they were completely incapable of doing that. This challenge has remained down throughout history, but not one person has been able to produce anything like it. If this were the word of a human being, some people would have been able to produce something like it or close to it. There is a great deal of evidence for this challenge in the Quraan, for example, the aayah (interpretation of the meaning):&nbsp;
Say: If the mankind and the jinn were together to produce the like of this Quraan, they could not produce the like thereof, even if they helped one another ;
[al-Israa 17:88]&nbsp;
Allaah says, challenging them to produce just ten soorahs:&nbsp;
Or they say, He (Prophet Muhammad) forged it (the Quraan). Say: Bring you then ten forged Soorah (chapters) like unto it, and call whomsoever you can, other than Allaah (to your help), if you speak the truth!
[Hood 11:13 interpretation of the meaning]&nbsp;
Allaah says, challenging them ...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Separating Islam from the cultures of the people is very important as many people have linked some of these barbaric Cultural practices to Islam such as Honour killings, acid attacks, forced marriages, abuse of basic human rights. As a result some have left Islam because of these Cultural practises not to mention the propaganda from the media.
Dr Bilal Philips talks about the impact of culture on our practice of Islam and the importance of putting Islamic values before cultural values.
"It is He (Allah) Who sent among the unlettered ones a Messenger (Muhammad peace be upon him) from among themselves, reciting to them His Verses, purifying them (from the filth of disbelief and polytheism) and teaching them the Book (this Quran, Islamic laws and Islamic jurisprudence) and Al-Hikmah (As-Sunnah: legal ways, orders, acts of worship or the Prophet). And verily, they had been before in manifest error" (Surah Al-Jumaah 62:2)

___________
ABOUT THE SPEAKER -
Abdur Raheem Green was born in Dar-es-salaam in Tanzania. His father was a colonial administrator in the then extant British Empire. By the time he was walking the old colonies were getting their independence, and his family moved back to the UK. He was sent to a Roman Catholic Monastic boarding school, Gilling Castle and then onto Ampleforth College. It was there that he really started to question what life was all about and how much sense the traditions he was being brought up with really made.
It was while he was working in the City (London) that his delving into every aspect of spirituality, philosophy and psychology came to a head. It was then when he picked up a copy of the Quran and upon reading it he was convinced that it was revelation from God, and thus started his journey into Islam. This was in 1987. Since that time he has been involved in letting others know about Islam.
He is well known for his efforts at the renowned "Speaker's Corner" in London's Hyde Park. Currently, he is engaged in different activities including media work (Peace TV and Islam Channel)

      <video:description><![CDATA[My brother after returning from a trip starting acting very strange. He would say weird things and now doesn't talk to anyone at all. He has been sitting outside for 2 months now. He has even spit on our mother. At first we thought there was something psychologically wrong with him. However when we took him to a mental doctor he talks as if he is fine. We think he is either possessed by a Jinn or some magic was done to him. How can you tell if someone is possessed or if magic was done to them? How do you remove it? My mother is getting very sick over this.Praise be to Allaah
People who have had experience with such situations have related that the following are among the signs of a person who is possessed by jinn (or Satan):
Strong repulsion when hearing Qur&rsquo;aan or Aathaan (call for prayers).
Episodes of losing consciousness and/or epileptic attacks, especially when Qur&rsquo;aan is recited for the possessed person.
Frequent nightmares during sleep.
Tendency to avoid people accompanied by out-of-the-norm behavior.
The jinn who possesses him might speak when Qur&rsquo;aan is recited for the possessed person.
Madness, as stated in the Qur&rsquo;aan (interpretation of the meaning): "Those who devour usury will not stand except as stands one whom Satan by his touch hath driven to [epileptic] madness&hellip;"2:275
As for a person struck by magic he might experience the following:
Dislike of one&rsquo;s spouse, as indicated in the Qur&rsquo;aan by the following verse (interpretation of the meaning): "And from these (angels) people learn that by which they cause separation between a man and his wife..." (Al-Baqarah, 2:102).
Different attitude in the house from that which is outside the house. For example, a person will feel that he is missing his family when is outside the house but when he goes home, love changes quickly to extreme hatred.
Inability to have sexual intercourse with one&rsquo;s spouse.
Frequent miscarriage for pregnant women.
Sudden change in behavior without obvious reason.

      <video:title><![CDATA[Muslims in Islam Taking Action]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Can evil be changed with one&rsquo;s hand (by taking action)? Who should change evil with his hand?.Praise be to Allaah. Allaah has described the believers as denouncing evil and as enjoining what is good. He says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;The believers, men and women, are Awliyaa&rsquo; (helpers, supporters, friends, protectors) of one another; they enjoin (on the people) Al‑Ma&lsquo;roof (i.e. Islamic Monotheism and all that Islam orders one to do), and forbid (people) from Al‑Munkar (i.e. polytheism and disbelief of all kinds, and all that Islam has forbidden)&rdquo;
[al-Tawbah 9:71]
&ldquo;Let there arise out of you a group of people inviting to all that is good (Islam), enjoining Al-Ma&lsquo;roof (i.e. Islamic Monotheism and all that Islam orders one to do) and forbidding Al-Munkar (polytheism and disbelief and all that Islam has forbidden)&rdquo;
[Aal &lsquo;Imraan 3:104]
&ldquo;You (true believers in Islamic Monotheism, and real followers of Prophet Muhammad and his Sunnah) are the best of peoples ever raised up for mankind; you enjoin Al-Ma&lsquo;roof (i.e. Islamic Monotheism and all that Islam has ordained) and forbid Al‑Munkar (polytheism, disbelief and all that Islam has forbidden)&rdquo;
[Aal &lsquo;Imraan 3:110]
There are many verses which speak of enjoining what is good and forbidding what is evil; that is because of the importance of this issue and the great need that exists for it.
According to a saheeh hadeeth, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Whoever among you sees an evil action, let him change it with his hand [by taking action]; if he cannot, then with his tongue [by speaking out]; and if he cannot, then with his heart [by at least hating it and believing that it is wrong], and that is the weakest of faith.&rdquo; Narrated by Muslim in his Saheeh.
Changing evil by one's hand should be done by those who are able to do that, such as those in positions of authority and the bodies in charge of such matters in the areas over which...]]></video:description>

And those who, when they commit an immorality or wrong themselves [by transgression], remember Allah and seek forgiveness for their sins - and who can forgive sins except Allah? - and [who] do not persist in what they have done while they know. (3:135) Aale Emraan

I have just seen many videos on YouTube that were not grabbing people's attention when I tried to tell them about Islam. So I decided to make a channel to promote to anybody and everybody! The videos will be as simple as possible so a child could understand. I will limit the Arabic language to a minimum so most people can know what I'm speaking about. I will also have different speakers from time to time as well from many different cultures to show the diversity of how Islam is not just meant for the middle east but for the whole world!Any future videos I release will be no more than 5 minutes long for brief topics concerning this Way Of Life (Islam).]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[I see the word fitnah repeated often in the Qur&rsquo;aan in several soorahs and aayahs. Is there a difference in the meanings of this word, and what are its various meanings?Praise be to Allaah. Definition of fitnah:
1 &ndash; The word fitnah from a linguistic point of view:
Al-Azhari said: &ldquo;The Arabic word fitnah includes meanings of testing and trial. The root is taken from the phrase fatantu al-fiddah wa&rsquo;l-dhahab (I assayed (tested the quality of) the silver and gold), meaning I melted the metals to separate the bad from the good. Similarly, Allaah says in the Qur&rsquo;aan (interpretation of the meaning): &lsquo;(It will be) a Day when they will be tried [yuftanoona] (punished, i.e. burnt) over the Fire!&rsquo; [al-Dhaariyaat 51:13], meaning, burning them with fire.&rdquo; (Tahdheeb al-Lughah, 14/196).
Ibn Faaris said: &ldquo;Fa-ta-na is a sound root which indicates testing or trial.&rdquo; (Maqaayees al-Lughah, 4/472). This is the basic meaning of the word fitnah in Arabic.
Ibn al-Atheer said: &ldquo;Fitnah: trial or test&hellip; The word is often used to describe tests in which something disliked is eliminated. Later it was also often used in the sense of sin, kufr (disbelief), fighting, burning, removing and diverting.&rdquo; (al-Nihaayah, 3/410. Ibn Hajar said something similar in al-Fath, 13/3).
Ibn al-A&rsquo;raabi summed up the meanings of fitnah when he said: &ldquo;Fitnah means testing, fitnah means trial, fitnah means wealth, fitnah means children, fitnah means kufr, fitnah means differences of opinion among people, fitnah means burning with fire.&rdquo; (Lisaan al-&lsquo;Arab by Ibn Manzoor).
2 &ndash; Meanings of the word fitnah in the Qur&rsquo;aan and Sunnah:
1- Testing and trial, as in the aayah (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Do people think that they will be left alone because they say: &lsquo;We believe, and will not be tested [la yuftanoon]&rdquo; [al-&lsquo;Ankaboot 29:2]
i.e., that they will not be subjected to trial, as Ibn Jareer said.
2- Blocking the way and tur...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Proof Jesus Didn't Die For You]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Why is it so difficult for the Muslims to believe that Jesus is the only son of God, when it says in the gospel that he is the son of God and he says of God &ldquo;My Father&rdquo;?.Praise be to Allaah.We have previously explained that the Gospel in which we believe, and no one's Islam is valid unless he believes in it, is not the gospels that are in the hands of the Christians nowadays. Rather the Gospel in which we believe is that which was brought by &lsquo;Eesa (Jesus &ndash; peace be upon him) from Allaah. As for that which is in the hands of the Christians today, it is something else, and they themselves do not claim that Jesus is the one who brought it or wrote it. See question no. 47516.
As that is the case, what the Christians claim about the Gospels stating that Jesus is the son of God and that God is his father &ndash;exalted be Allaah above having a son or a wife &ndash; does not count as any kind of proof against us, because we believe that that is something that was fabricated by human beings, and it is not part of the religion of Jesus (peace be upon him) or the religion of any other Messenger.
We believe that the Gospels that are in people&rsquo;s hands today, in which the Christians believe, have been tampered with and changed, and are still being tampered with from time to time, so that there is nothing left in the form in which the Gospel was revealed from Allaah. Here we would point out that the Gospel which speaks most of the belief in the trinity and the divinity of the Messiah (peace be upon him), so that it has become a reference-point for the Christians in their arguments in support of this falsehood, is the Gospel of John. This Gospel is subject to doubts about its authorship even among some Christian scholars themselves, as is not the case with the other Gospels in which they believe. This is an ancient doubt which goes back to the second century CE according to their own history.
Professor Stadlin says: The entire Gospel of John was written by one of the students of the Alexandri...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)
In addition, Islam is the only religion prevailing over all other religions. Allah states in the Holy Qur&rsquo;an :
&ldquo;To thee We sent the Scripture in the truth, confirming the scripture that came be...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Malcolm X - Advice to Muslim Women]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[A short segment from one of Malcolm X's speeches in the early 1960s. He advises women to seek education/knowledge (be it secondary school or even reading a book) so to add nourishment to their lives and think more intellectually. Kind of like saying, there's more to your life than being a mother/wife..
Remember the historical context if you feel offended. The main thing he's addressing in the video is education/knowledge. Keep in mind, he HAD to address women at this gathering because it was uncommon for women (especially black women) to study back in the 1960s, only a small number of women were educated back then.
If you listen closely you'll notice he's not attacking women, but he's straightforwardly telling everyone to seek to become intellectual. It's not about gender, it's more about the topic. If Malcolm X was alive today I'm sure he would say this lecture can go both ways .
When he says "you talk trash", he's referring to those women who backbite - which he also discourages.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Deaf Muslim American Makes Umrah 2013]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[I want to know about &lsquo;Umrah in detail.Praise be to Allaah. An act of worship cannot be accepted unless it meets two conditions:
1 &ndash; Sincerity towards Allaah alone, i.e., it is done to seek the Countenance of Allaah and the Hereafter, and is not done to show off, to enhance one&rsquo;s reputation or for worldly gain.
2 &ndash; Following the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) in word and deed. Following the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) can only be achieved by knowing his Sunnah
Hence the one who wants to worship Allaah by doing any act of worship &ndash; Hajj or anything else &ndash; has to learn the teachings of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) concerning it, so that his actions will be in accordance with the Sunnah.
We will sum up in these few lines the description of &lsquo;Umrah as narrated in the Sunnah.
&lsquo;Umrah is composed of four things, namely: ihraam, circumambulation of the Sacred House (tawaaf), saa&rsquo;i between al-Safa and al-Marwah, and shaving the head or cutting the hair.
1 &ndash; Ihraam.
Ihraam means having the intention of starting the rituals of Hajj or &lsquo;Umrah.
When the pilgrim wants to enter ihraam, he should change his clothes and do ghusl like the ghusl done to cleanse oneself of janaabah (impurity following sexual activity). Then he should apply whatever perfume is available, musk or whatever, to his head and beard. It does not matter if traces of that perfume remain after he enters ihraam, because of the hadeeth narrated in al-Saheehayn from &lsquo;Aa&rsquo;ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) who said: When the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) wanted to enter ihraam, he would perfume himself with the best perfume he could find, then I would see shining traces of that musk on his head and beard after that.&rdquo; Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 271; Muslim, 1190.
Doing ghusl when entering ihraam is Sunnah for both men and women, even women who are bleeding following childbirth or menstru...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[(NEW YORK, N.Y., 12/29/12) --- The nation's largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization today repeated its call for America's political and religious leaders to speak out forcefully against growing anti-Muslim hate in our society after a New York woman was arrested for allegedly pushing a man to his death on the tracks of a subway station because she thought he was Muslim.The New York chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-NY) said the alleged killer, who has been charged with second-degree murder as a hate crime, told police the attack was "an act against Muslims" and cited the 9/11 terror attacks as a motive for her actions. Her alleged victim was reportedly Hindu, not Muslim.SEE: Woman Accused of Hate-Crime Murder in Subway Push (NY Times)http://tinyurl.com/cll5a8m"We again urge our nation's leaders to speak out forcefully against the rising level of anti-Muslim hate in American society that is being fueled and exploited by a vocal minority of Islamophobes," said CAIR-NY Executive Director Muneer Awad.&nbsp;Awad cited other recent hate incidents targeting Muslims or Islam:* A designated hate group headed by blogger Pamela Geller is placing Islamophobic advertisements in transit systems nationwide, including in New York subway stations.

      <video:title><![CDATA[Amazing Prophecies for Atheist and Christians to Think About to Know Islam is the Truth]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Are there any prophecies made in the Noble Qur'an that have already come true?Praise be to Allaah. Yes, there are some things which Allaah mentioned in the Qur&rsquo;aan which were yet to come, and which did in fact happen. These include the following :
1 &ndash; The defeat of the Persians by the Romans within a number of years.
Allaah said:
&ldquo;The Romans have been defeated.
In the nearest land (Syria, Iraq, Jordan, and Palestine), and they, after their defeat, will be victorious.
Within three to nine years. The decision of the matter, before and after (these events) is only with Allaah, (before the defeat of the Romans by the Persians, and after the defeat of the Persians by the Romans). And on that day, the believers (i.e. Muslims) will rejoice (at the victory given by Allaah to the Romans against the Persians)&rdquo;
[al-Room 30:2-4]
Al-Shawkaani said:
The scholars of Tafseer said: the Persians defeated the Romans, and the kuffaar of Makkah rejoiced because of that and said, &ldquo;Those who do not have a Book have defeated those who do have a Book,&rdquo; and they gloated over the Muslims and said, &ldquo;We will also defeat you as the Persians defeated the Romans.&rdquo; The Muslims wanted the Romans to prevail over the Persians because they were People of the Book&hellip; &ldquo;and they, after their defeat, will be victorious&rdquo; means that the Romans, after having been defeated by the Persians, would defeat the people of Persia.
Al-Zajjaaj said: This is one of the verses that prove that the Qur&rsquo;aan is from Allaah, because it is foretelling something that was yet to come, and this is something which no one could know except Allaah.
Fath al-Qadeer, 4/214
2 &ndash; Enmity among the Christian sects until the Day of Resurrection:
Allaah said:
&ldquo;And from those who call themselves Christians, We took their covenant, but they have abandoned a good part of the Message that was sent to them. So We planted amongst them enmity and hatred till the Day of Resurrection (when they discar...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[A beautiful nasheed sung by a young Tunisian brother in on live TV. The lyrics of the poem are as follows:The first thing I'll start my words with saying is Bismillah;I'll start with the kalima of tahweed: La ilaaha illa Allah.We'll start by sending blessings on As Sadiq, Al Amin (Rasool Allah);We'll start by sending blessings on the best of the Messengers.&nbsp;Listen to me, my brother, so that I may tell you a story;I am a Tunisian Arab and my deen is Islam.You told me I was ignorant; you told me I was backward;You told me I was an oppressor, that I was an "ikhwani"!Can you now tell me what is my fault?For keeping the Qur'an and sunnah as a guide between my eyes?You like to propagate the "modern Islam";&nbsp;the Islam of sagging trousers and the Islam of miniskirts.&nbsp;55 years we lived under a secular regime!You killed, stole and looted; and kept the people in suffering.I am a Sunni Muslim; not a Jew or a Christian;So do not tell me that tale about "separating politics" from my religion!One word that we have said is that the Qur'an is our constitution;&nbsp;One word that we have said is that the Prophet is our role model;One word that we have said is that the way of the Salaf is our way;&nbsp;One word that we have said is that the return of the Khilafah is a promise of Allah!May Allah reward him, and keep him steadfast!!]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Statement of Muslim Community at Newtown, Conn., Interfaith Service with President Obama]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Jason Graves, Al Hedaya Islamic Center
In the name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
The Muslim community of the Al Hedaya Islamic Center in Newtown, in Connecticut and throughout the nation joins with our fellow Americans in grieving for those who died in this senseless tragedy and praying for them and their families.
We ask God to grant those lost a special place in paradise and we ask their families to be granted the strength to endure the unendurable.
It is in such times of almost unbearable loss that we seek comfort with our Creator and that artificial divisions of faith fall away to reveal a nation of mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters, sons and daughters, all united in a desire to bring healing and renewed hope.
The Quran, Islam's revealed text, tells us that God's mercy and compassion are without limit and always available for those who ask. God says: "When my servants question you about Me, tell them that I am near. I answer the prayer of every person who calls on Me." (2:186)
In the Quran, God also says: "Give glad tidings to those who endure with patience; who, when afflicted with calamity, say: 'We belong to God and to Him we shall return.' Such are the people on whom there are blessings and Mercy from God." (2:155-157)
So let us all, of every faith, of every background, pray for God's comfort at this time of heartbreaking tragedy.
"Verily, with every difficulty there is ease. Verily, with every difficulty there is ease." (94:5-6)

      <video:title><![CDATA[Islam: The True Religion of God?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[My peace and blessing of Allah be upon you I am writting in hope that you will be able to help me dissolve my dilema. I am a practicing muslim woman ( 20 years old). I 'v moved to XXX 5 years ago. My parents were never praticing muslims, but i've been thought about Islam from my grandmother. I've always been a believer in Allah . Until recently I did not know how to perform prayers, however I decided that there is nobody here to teach me so I had to do it myself. With the help of Allah I learned how to perform them, also I started wearing hijab. The problem I am writing with is that I've been seeing this guy with whom I feel in love with. Unfortunately he is not a muslim, but also he does not belong in any faith. He does believe in God I've been trying to convince him to join Islam and become part of the only true religion, otherwise I cannot marry him. ( we've been together for 3 years). What I cannot convince him is that Muhammad ( pbuh) is the messenger of Allah. He keeps asking me questions like " How do you know that this is a word of God?, What if Muhammad just made it up as if it is a word from God.Please tell me how to convince him that Qur'an is a true word from none other but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger. Please help He keeps saying that if we were to get married he would not have a problem with me continuing to practice my religion. He is quite proud of me for starting to wear hijab in society where it is not common.( I might be one of the only people waaring hijab in this town, the beliefe in Allah gave me the strenght to do it)I know that he would not have a problem with me practicing my faith, but I would still like him to be a muslim. Even though he is a great person and does not do anything bad. It really hurts when I think that we cannot be together. Is it a major sin for me to get married to him? There is a lot of people who do it. Especially when there is no muslims around where I alive at all. There is a lot of muslim women that do it. Would I be terribly punished if I were to d...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Do Good People Go to Hell?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[I have heard in certain lectures given by the shaikhs here in America who consider themselves Salafee, say things like this: My mother is a kafira and I KNOW she is going to hell. Saying that they know for sure that a certain person is going to hell. Is this permissible in Islam? Can we say that a certain person is going to Jahannam because of their religion?Praise be to Allaah.
According to Ahl al-Sunnah wa&rsquo;l-Jamaa&rsquo;ah, the basic principle is that the issue of who will go to Paradise and who will go to Hell is the matter of &lsquo;aqeedah based on what is said in the Qur&rsquo;aan and Sunnah, and there is no room for reasoning or ijtihaad in this matter.
If the Qur&rsquo;aan or Sunnah says that a specific person will be in Paradise or Hell, we bear witness to that. At the same time we hope that those who do good will go to Paradise and fear that those who do bad will go to Hell, but Allaah knows best how people will end up.
The issue of saying who will go to Paradise or Hell may be divided into two categories:
General statements, which have to do with people&rsquo;s qualities, such as saying, &ldquo;Whoever associates anything with Allaah in an act of major shirk is a kaafir who is beyond the pale of Islam, and will be in Hell.&rdquo;
Similarly we say that whoever fasts Ramadaan out of faith and in the hope of receiving reward will be forgiven his previous and future sins, and that an acceptable Hajj has no other reward but Paradise. There are many such statements in the Qur&rsquo;aan and saheeh Sunnah.
If a person asks, &ldquo;Will the one who calls on anything other than Allaah and seeks the help of anyone but Allaah be in Paradise or Hell?&rdquo; we would say that he is a kaafir who will be in Hell, if he is shown clear evidence that he is wrong but he stills persists and dies believing that.
If it were said, Whoever does Hajj then does not commit any obscene or immoral act, and dies after his Hajj, for example, what will his fate be? We would say that he is in Paradise. Or the person whose last...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Islam Orders Every Muslim to Invite Mankind to the Purpose of Life]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[How should we call people to Islam?Praise be to Allaah. Allaah created man and caused him to dwell on this earth, but He did not forsake him. Rather He gave him what he needs of food, drink and clothing, and revealed to him throughout the ages a path to follow and be guided by. The interests and happiness of mankind at every time and in every place depend upon following the path of Allaah and rejecting all others: &ldquo;And verily, this (i.e. Allaah&rsquo;s Commandments mentioned in the above two Verses 151 and 152) is My straight path, so follow it, and follow not (other) paths, for they will separate you away from His path. This He has ordained for you that you may become Al-Muttaqoon (the pious)&rdquo;[al-An&rsquo;aam 6:153 &ndash; interpretation of the meaning] Islam is the last of the heavenly religions and the Qur&rsquo;aan is the last of the heavenly Books. Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) is the last of the Prophets and Messengers. Allaah commanded him to convey this religion to all of mankind: &ldquo;this Qur&rsquo;aan has been revealed to me that I may therewith warn you and whomsoever it may reach&rdquo;[al-An&rsquo;aam 6:18] Allaah sent His Messenger Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) with Islam to all of mankind, as Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): &ldquo;Say (O Muhammad): &lsquo;O mankind! Verily, I am sent to you all as the Messenger of Allaah&rsquo;&rdquo;[al-A&rsquo;raaf 7:158] Da&rsquo;wah or calling others to Islam is the best of deeds, because it involves guiding people to the Straight Path and to that which will bring them happiness in this world and in the Hereafter: &ldquo;And who is better in speech than he who [says: &lsquo;My Lord is Allaah (believes in His Oneness),&rsquo; and then stands firm (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allaah&rsquo;s (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: &lsquo;I am one of the Muslims.&rsquo;&rdquo;[Fussilat 41:33 &ndash; interpretation of the meaning] Calling others to Islam is...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)
In addition, Islam is the only religion prevailing over all other religions. Allah states in the Holy Qur&rsquo;an :
&ldquo;To thee We sent the Scripture in the truth, confirming the scripture that came be...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)
In addition, Islam is the only religion prevailing over all other religions. Allah states in the Holy Qur&rsquo;an :
&ldquo;To thee We sent the Scripture in the truth, confirming the scripture that came be...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Could you please tell me that why is a homosexuality a sin in islam? I know it&rsquo;s a great sin but my question is why? I haven't able to find the real reason why? So، if you could can you also tell me that what Allah has says in Quran or in hadith about it. Please let me know as soon as possible.Praise be to Allaah. The Muslim should not doubt, even for an instant, that what Allaah has prescribed is wise. He should know that there is great wisdom in what Allaah has commanded and what He has forbidden; it is the straight path and is the only way in which man can be safe and at peace, protecting his honour, his mind and his health, in accordance with the natural disposition (fitrah) with which Allaah has created man.
Some heretics have tried to attack Islam and its rulings; they have denounced divorce and plural marriage and permitted alcohol. Those who look at the state of their societies will see the state of misery which those societies have reached.
When they rejected divorce, murder took its place. When they rejected plural marriage, men started to take mistresses instead. When they allowed alcohol, all kinds of shameful and immoral actions became widespread.
They (gays and lesbians) both go against the natural disposition (fitrah) which Allaah has created in mankind &ndash; and also in animals &ndash; whereby the male is inclined towards the female, and vice versa.Whoever goes against that goes against the natural disposition of mankind, the fitrah.
The spread of homosexuality has caused man diseases which neither the east nor the west can deny exist because of them. Even if the only result of this perversion was AIDS &ndash; which attacks the immune system in humans &ndash; that would be enough.
It also causes the breakup of the family and leads people to give up their work and study because they are preoccupied with these perversions.

      <video:description><![CDATA[How the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) did his marriages. How it was done. How did he (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) consummated the marriage, offered feasts, what he offerred as mahr(bridal money)in detailPraise be to Allaah.The guidance of the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) with regard to marriage was that he encouraged making it easy, announcing it and proclaiming it openly, and expressing joy and happiness on this occasion; making a wedding feast (waleemah) and inviting people to it; enjoining those who are invited to attend, and even if a person is fasting he should attend and offer du&rsquo;aa&rsquo; for the host of the feast, but he does not have to eat.
Then he enjoined treating the wife with kindness and trying one's best to achieve that.
This is in general terms. There follows a detailed discussion:
Firstly: Affordable dowry (mahr)
Al-Bayhaqi (14721) narrated that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;The best of dowries is that which is most affordable.&rdquo; It was narrated by Abu Dawood (2117) with the wording: &ldquo;The best of marriages is that which is most affordable.&rdquo; This was classed as saheeh by al-Albaani.
It says in &lsquo;Awn al-Ma&rsquo;bood:
i.e., the easiest for the man by making the dowry and so on easy. Al-&lsquo;Allaamah al-Shaykh al-&lsquo;Azeezi said: i.e., the lowest dowry or the easiest in accepting the proposal.
Ahmad (23957) and Ibn Maajah (4095) narrated from &lsquo;Aa&rsquo;ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allaah (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;One of the signs of a woman being blessed is that the process of proposing to her is made easy and the dowry is made affordable and she bears children easily.&rdquo; Classed as hasan by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Jaami&rsquo; (2235).
Al-Tirmidhi (1114) narrated that &lsquo;Umar ibn al-Khattaab (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: Do not go to extremes with regard to women's dowries. If that...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Seerah of Prophet Muhammad 15]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[The 7 reasons...
We go with Version 1 and not Versions 2 and 3 for the following 7 reasons:
1. Claiming that Iblis can inspire RasulAllah sall Allahu 'alayhi wa sallam (even though iT explained it in a way) interferes with the process of wahy and Allah has guaranteed the process of wahy in SO MANY verses. It would argue that the revelation was not falsified and here we know what is true from what is false
2. There is no authentic version of the qisaat'l-gharaneek. Every version in Tabari and Wahadi is weak and none goes back to RasulAllah sAaws. The strongest goes back to a tabi'i. Even ibn Hajar and ibn Taymiyyah admit this.
3. Even if we forget the isnad analysis, look at the story itself: there are so many versions of it. Another version is that RasulAllah sAaws was sleepy and he messed up. Another version says that RasulAllah sAaws was in salah at the ka'bah when reciting. And another version says that he was sitting in the gathering, reciting.
4. No authentic book of hadith mentions this incident - not even ibn Hisham and ibn Ishaq (the authentic books of seerah). They are found in the tertiary sources.
5. (This point is the biggest for YQ!) Contextual analysis of the verses. Verses 19-20 show that what will follow will be criticism because of the istifham qaari (derogatory questioning). Even in English, you do not speak like this when speaking of something to be honoured. Then comes the verse after ("unjust division"). If the satanic verses are inserted, the story makes no sense. From criticism to praise to criticism, it doesn't work linguistically or contextually!
6. (Pointed out by Muhammad Abdu - mufti of Egypt d. 1905 CE) Even linguistically it makes no sense because the word gharaneek has never been used in pre-Islamic poetry to refer to the idols. This would be the only time it is found - in this story. If Shaytaan really wanted to fool the pagans, he would choose a word that they recognized.
7. We have the authentic story of Bukhaari with a good enough explanation and the power of the Qur'an and e...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Dealing with Depression or Suicidal Thoughts]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What is the ruling on committing suicide in the case of severe depression in which the sick person is not aware of the consequences of what he does? Will Allaah forgive him for this action? Is it possible that the suffering that the sick person goes through because of this disease is an expiation for his sins?.Praise be to Allaah.Firstly:
Suicide is a major sin, and the one who does that is faced with a warning of eternity in the Fire of Hell, where Allaah will punish him with the means that he used to commit suicide. It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Whoever throws himself down from a mountain and kills himself will be throwing himself down in the Fire of Hell for ever and ever. Whoever drinks poison and kills himself will be sipping it in the Fire of Hell for ever and ever. Whoever kills himself with a piece of iron will have that iron in his hand, thrusting it into his belly in the Fire of Hell for ever and ever.&rdquo; Narrated by al-Bukhaari (5442) and Muslim (109),
It was narrated from Thaabit ibn Dahhaak (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allaah (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Whoever kills himself with something will be punished with it on the Day of Resurrection.&rdquo; Narrated by al-Bukhaari (5700) and Muslim (110).
It was narrated that Jundub ibn &lsquo;Abd-Allaah (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;A man among those who came before you was wounded. He panicked and took a knife and cut his hand, and the bleeding did not stop until he died. Allaah, may He be glorified and exalted, said: &lsquo;My slave hastened his death; I have forbidden Paradise to him.&rdquo; Narrated by al-Bukhaari (3276) and Muslim (113).
The believer has to be patient and to seek the help of Allaah, may He be exalted, and understand that no matter what hardship befalls him in this world -- n...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Why Men and Women Can't Be Friends]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[I know keeping girlfriend will destroy the family and so on but what if we were just friends secretly were no one knew. this way we will we will stay togethr until marraige and we can garentee we wont perform any zinna. are there any cases in the old times of love .Praise be to Allaah. Firstly:
Taking a girlfriend does not only destroy the family, it destroys society, and those who do this are threatened with the punishment and wrath of Allaah. Love is a sickness that destroys the heart and leads to evil and immorality. The Shaytaan will keep tempting them and pushing them until they commit immoral actions and thus each gets what he or she wants from the other.
There are many forbidden matters associated with this, such as transgressing against the honour of others, betraying trust, being alone with a member of the opposite sex, touching, kissing, speaking immoral words, then the greater evil which occurs at the end, which is the sin of zina.
The fact that the questioner says &ldquo;no one knows about us&rdquo; is strange. How can he forget about his Lord Who knows what is secret and what is yet more hidden, and who knows the fraud of the eyes and all that the hearts conceal. (cf. Ghaafir 40:19).
Our advice to you, as you are still young, is to discipline yourself to obey Allaah and always remember that He is watching; fear Allaah concerning people&rsquo;s honour; strive for the Day when you will meet your Lord with your deeds; remember the scandal that may happen in this world and the Hereafter. Remember that you have sisters and will have a wife and daughters, so would you like for one of them what you are doing with the daughters of the Muslims? The answer is that you would certainly not like it, and other people do not like it either. Remember that you may see the results of your sin in some of your family members as a punishment to you from your Lord.
You have to look for righteous friends, and you have to keep yourself busy doing that which Allaah loves and is pleased with. Pay attention to the best and ...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)

All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.

For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.

Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.

The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :

In addition, Islam is the only religion prevailing over all other religions. Allah states in the Holy Qur&rsquo;an :
&ldquo;To thee We sent the Scripture in the truth, confirming the scripture that came be...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[#YOLT - You Only Live Twice - Muslim Short Film]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[http://www.facebook.com/IslamicEvent http://twitter.com/#!/BigIslamicEvent http://islamicevent.com.au TWEET #YOLT
An Epic Muslim Short Film on the true nature of what happens after your death. Is death really the end? Do we ever come back? Every soul shall taste death.
This film was shown at the Final Destination event for Islamic Events ( IE )
Special thanks to our friends at http://www.purematrimony.com/ for their continued support. Islamic marriages that are shariah compliant and approved by the Sheikhs.
So as not to confuse anyone " YOLT - You only live twice" is referring to Dunya (Our present life) v Akhira (the afterlife). Although there are more processes in the journey of our soul, we have chosen YOLT as it is a simple way of grasping the concept of our reality that there is a next life.
The final verse "Read your book", is referring to the final day of judgement when we return to Allah to be judged. Our book will be presented to us on this day. Our book will be a record of all our deeds in this life, the big, the small, the bad, the good. On the day of judgement, we will be held accountable for all these deeds. May Allah have mercy on us.

It is performed five times a day by all Muslims. Salah is a precise worship, different from praying on the inspiration of the moment. Muslims pray or, perhaps more correctly, worship five times throughout the day:  &middot; Between first light and sunrise.  &middot; After the sun has passed the middle of the sky.  &middot; Between mid-afternoon and sunset.  &middot; Between sunset and the last light of the day.  &middot; Between darkness and midnight. Each prayer may take at least 5 minutes, but it may be lengthened as a person wishes.

      <video:title><![CDATA[Beautiful Women]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[I have read your Article No. 22 on ( Rulings on Marriage ) I particularly did not understand the following phrase. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: (Women may be married for four things: wealth, beauty, lineage or religious commitment) Does this mean the woman has to be wealthy, beautiful, come from a good ancestral family and be religiously committed? The final one on religious commitment is very clear to me and I too firmly believe in it; but the others arent. Please clarify. .Praise be to Allaah.This hadeeth was narrated by al-Bukhaari (4802) and Muslim (1466) from Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) who said: &ldquo;A woman may be married for four things: her wealth, her lineage, her beauty and her religious commitment. Seek the one who is religiously-committed, may your hands be rubbed with dust (i.e., may you prosper).&rdquo;
There is nothing in this hadeeth to suggest that it is enjoined or encouraged to marry a woman for her beauty, lineage or wealth. Rather what it means is that these are things that people look for in marriage. Some look for a wife who is beautiful, some look for a wife who is descended from a noble family, some look for a wealthy wife, and some look for a wife who is religiously-committed &ndash; and this last is what the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) encouraged when he said: &ldquo;Seek the one who is religiously-committed, may your hands be rubbed with dust (i.e., may you prosper).&rdquo;
Al-Nawawi (may Allaah have mercy on him) said in Sharh Muslim:
The correct view concerning the meaning of this hadeeth is that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) spoke of what people usually do, for they seek these four characteristics, the last of which in their view is religious commitment, but you who are seeking to follow the right way should seek the one who is religiously committed. This is not a command to do so&hellip; This hadeeth encourages us to...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Can a Muslim Have Islam Without the Prayer?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[If you do not pray salat out of laziness on purpose, are you a kafir or just a bad Muslim? Please answer.Praise be to Allaah.
Imaam Ahmad said that the one who does not pray because of laziness is a kaafir. This is the more correct view and is that indicated by the evidence of the Book of Allaah and the Sunnah of His Messenger, and by the words of the Salaf and the proper understanding. (Al-Sharh al-Mumti&rsquo; &lsquo;ala Zaad al-Mustanqi&rsquo;, 2/26).
Anyone who examines the texts of the Qur&rsquo;aan and Sunnah will see that they indicate that the one who neglects the prayer is guilty of Kufr Akbar (major kufr) which puts him beyond the pale of Islam.
Among the evidence to be found in the Qur&rsquo;aan is:
The aayah (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;But if they repent [by rejecting Shirk (polytheism) and accept Islamic Monotheism], perform As-Salaat (Iqaamat-as-Salaat) and give Zakaat, then they are your brethren in religion.&rdquo; [al-Tawbah 9:11]
The evidence derived from this aayah is that Allaah defined three things that the Mushrikeen have to do in order to eliminate the differences between them us: they should repent from shirk, they should perform prayer, and they should pay zakaah. If they repent from shirk but they do not perform the prayer or pay zakaah, then they are not our brethren in faith; if they perform the prayer but do not pay zakaah, then they are not our brethren in faith. Brotherhood in religion cannot be effaced except when a person goes out of the religion completely; it cannot be effaced by fisq (immoral conduct) or lesser types of kufr.
Allaah also says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Then, there has succeeded them a posterity who have given up As-Salaat (the prayers) [i.e. made their Salaat (prayers) to be lost, either by not offering them or by not offering them perfectly or by not offering them in their proper fixed times] and have followed lusts. So they will be thrown in Hell. Except those who repent and believe (in the Oneness of Allaah and His Messeng...]]></video:description>

Islam Q&amp;A
All praises be to Allah, the Lord of the Universe. May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon Muhammad, His last messenger.
The objective of this handout is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people face difficulties on the basis of their mistaken belief that entering into the Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or sheikhs, or reporting this act to the courts or other authorities. It is also thought that the act of accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that the whole matter is very easy and that none of the above conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, the Almighty is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who wish to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate many matters for them including the possibility of performing Hajj and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a Muslim and has the full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah (SWT) for all human beings, he should pronounce the "Shahada" (testimony of faith) without further delay. The Holy Qur'an is explicit in this...]]></video:description>

It is also thought that the act of accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that the whole matter is very easy and that none of the above conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, the Almighty is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who wish to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate many matters for them including the possibility of performing Hajj and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a Muslim and has the full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah (SWT) for all human beings, he should pronounce the "Shahada" (testimony of faith) without further delay. The Holy Qur'an is explicit in this...]]></video:description>

But there is no God, none who has the right to be worshipped, but One (God &mdash;Allaah). And if they cease not from what they say, verily, a painful torment will befall on the disbelievers among them" [al-Maa'idah 5:73] To my dear respected Muslim and Non-Muslim guests and visitors greetings of peace and welcome to ISCIAE. I ask ALLAH, that is your creator + sustainer that He open your hearts and minds and allow you to be objective. Certainly all Praise is due to ALLAH, alone. We praise Him and seek His help and ask for His forgiveness, alone, and May His peace and blessings always and continuously be upon His final Messenger MUHAMMAD , whom there is no later Prophet, salla Allahu 'alayhi wassalaam, His family and followers and callers to Allah and truth until the Day of Judgment.]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Could u please supply me with some qoutes from the Hadith and Quran on the importance of hijab for women.Praise be to Allaah. Verses that have to do with hijab:
1 &ndash; Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And tell the believing women to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts) and not to show off their adornment except only that which is apparent (like both eyes for necessity to see the way, or outer palms of hands or one eye or dress like veil, gloves, headcover, apron), and to draw their veils all over Juyoobihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms) and not to reveal their adornment except to their husbands, or their fathers, or their husband&rsquo;s fathers, or their sons, or their husband&rsquo;s sons, or their brothers or their brother&rsquo;s sons, or their sister&rsquo;s sons, or their (Muslim) women (i.e. their sisters in Islam), or the (female) slaves whom their right hands possess, or old male servants who lack vigour, or small children who have no sense of feminine sex. And let them not stamp their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment. And all of you beg Allaah to forgive you all, O believers, that you may be successful&rdquo;
[al-Noor 24:31]
2 &ndash; Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And as for women past childbearing who do not expect wedlock, it is no sin on them if they discard their (outer) clothing in such a way as not to show their adornment. But to refrain (i.e. not to discard their outer clothing) is better for them. And Allaah is All‑Hearer, All‑Knower&rdquo;
[al-Noor 24:60]
&ldquo;Women past childbearing&rdquo; are those who no longer menstruate, so they can no longer get pregnant or bear children.
We shall see below the words of Hafsah bint Sireen and the way in which she interpreted this verse.

      <video:title><![CDATA[Sins of the Tongue]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[A. What is the ruling on accusing somebody of having a loose tongue? B. Do you have to tell them what they have said and to whom? This is a matter that has arisen and instead of the person being told what they are supposed to have said and to whom. They are being told that the ones telling them they have a loose tongue, that they have it on good authority that they do not have to say any more than "you have a loose tongue" C. How can a person be accused of something they might not have said without telling them? The person could be innocent and their reputation is now in pieces. I ask you to please provide all the relevant Islamic rulings on this matter to Inshallah stop all the slandering and backbiting that is happening to the person accused of having a loose tongue.Praise be to Allah.Firstly:
The Muslim has to guard his tongue and avoid things that have been forbidden. Among these forbidden things which people often take lightly are gheebah (backbiting), buhtan (slander) and nameemah (malicious gossip).
Gheebah or backbiting means speaking about a Muslim in his absence and saying things that he would not like to have spread around or mentioned. Buhtan or slander means saying things about a Muslim that are not true, or in other words telling lies about him. Nameemah or malicious gossip means telling one person what another said in order to cause trouble between them.
There is a great deal of evidence to show that these actions are haram (impermissible). It will suffice for us to mention just a few of them in order to demonstrate that they are haram.
Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;neither backbite one another. Would one of you like to eat the flesh of his dead brother? You would hate it (so hate backbiting). And fear Allah. Verily, Allah is the One Who forgives and accepts repentance, Most Merciful&rdquo; [49:12]
It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Do you know what gheebah (bac...]]></video:description>

Young Muslims is a pioneering national youth organization that has been on the youth scene since the early 90's. We have established a well organized network of local youth groups that we call NeighborNets (which means network of neighbors) across the United States and Canada. Each NeighborNet is a dynamic youth group which attempts to build a solid understanding of the principles of Islam amongst its members by helping them put these principles into practice. By providing the youth with an Islamic atmosphere where they can form bonds of brotherhood with their peers, they become comfortable with Islam and its teachings. We stress the importance of knowing, understanding, and fulfilling our individual and collective obligations as Muslims.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Defending the Prophet Against Orientalist Critique]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[We have heard about the Westerners making fun of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and mocking him. What should our attitude be towards that? How should we defend the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)?.Praise be to Allaah.Firstly:
We and every Muslim who feels pride in his religion is grieved by what these fools and criminals have done by mocking our Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) who is the best man who ever walked on this earth, and he is the leader of the earlier and later generations, may the blessings and peace of my Lord be upon him.
This insolence is nothing strange on their part, rather it is to be expected of them.
Moreover this crime &ndash; although it breaks our hearts and fills them with anger, and we are prepared to sacrifice our lives in defence of the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) &ndash; is nevertheless something which brings us glad tidings of their doom, and tells us that the end of their supremacy is at hand. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Truly, We will suffice you against the scoffers&rdquo;
[al-Hijr 15:95]
Allaah will suffice His Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) against the criminals who mock him. He says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;For he who hates you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم), he will be cut off (from posterity and every good thing in this world and in the Hereafter)&rdquo;
[al-Kawthar 108:3]
i.e., he is scorned and humiliated and cut off from all that is good.
When the Muslims besieged a stronghold and its people resisted, then they heard them mocking and reviling the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), they would sense that victory was at hand, and it would only be a short time before Allaah granted them victory, to avenge His Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him).
Al-Saarim al-Maslool (p. 116-117).
There are many historical cases where those who mocked the Prophet (peace and ...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Anger Management Advice]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[I have a bad temper, if I get mad or upset, I move away from the situation, when I was standing I would sit down, when I was sitting I would lie down, and I have recited the "darood" and "laholawallah kuwatta", but to no avail. How does one control their temper then?Praise be to Allaah.
Anger is one of the evil whispers of Shaytaan, which leads to so many evils and tragedies, of which only Allaah knows their full extent. For this reason Islam has a great deal to say about this bad characteristic, and the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) described cures for this "disease" and ways to limit its effects, among which are the following:
(1) Seeking refuge with Allaah from the Shaytaan:
Sulayman ibn Sard said: "I was sitting with the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), and two men were slandering one another. One of them was red in the face, and the veins on his neck were standing out. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, &lsquo;I know a word which, if he were to say it, what he feels would go away. If he said "I seek refuge with Allaah from the Shaytaan," what he feels (i.e., his anger) would go away.&rsquo;" (Reported by al-Bukhaari, al-Fath, 6/337)
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "If a man gets angry and says, &lsquo;I seek refuge with Allaah,&rsquo; his anger will go away." (Saheeh al-Jaami&rsquo; al-Sagheer, no. 695)
(2) Keeping silent:
The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "If any of you becomes angry, let him keep silent." (Reported by Imaam Ahmad, al-Musnad, 1/329; see also Saheeh al-Jaami&rsquo;, 693, 4027).
This is because in most cases, the angry person loses self control and could utter words of kufr/disbelief (from which we seek refuge with Allaah), or curses, or the word of divorce (talaaq) which would destroy his home, or words of slander which would bring him the enmity and hatred of others. So, in short, keeping silent is the solution which helps one to avoid all that.

      <video:title><![CDATA[Why Islam? Is There a God?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[A non Muslim friend of mine asked how I could prove the existence of God and why He has given us life, and what its purpose is. My answer did not satisfy him, please tell me what I should tell him?Praise be to Allah
My dear Muslim brother, your efforts to call people to Allah and explain the reality of Allah&rsquo;s existence make us very happy. Finding out about Allah is in tune with the sound fitrah (natural inclinations of man) and with sound reasoning. How many there are who, once the truth becomes clear to them, they hasten to submit to Allah (enter Islam). If each one of us was to do his duty towards his religion, a great deal of good would be achieved. So we congratulate you, our brother, for undertaking the mission of the Prophets and Messengers, and we give you glad tidings of the great reward which you are promised, as your Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: &ldquo;If Allah were to guide one man at your hands, that would be better for you than red camels.&rdquo; (al-Bukhaari,Muslim). &ldquo;Red camels&rdquo; are the best kind of camels.
Secondly:
With regard to proof of the existence of Allah, it is obvious to anyone who ponders the matter, and there is no need for a lengthy discussion. When we ponder the matter, we find that it is divided into three categories: instinctive evidence, tangible evidence and shar&rsquo;i (revelatory) evidence. We will explain this to you further, insha Allah.
1 &ndash; Instinctive evidence:
Al-Shaykh Ibn &lsquo;Uthaymeen said:
The instinctive evidence that God exists is the strongest of all evidence for those who are not led astray by the devils. Hence Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;So set you (O Muhammad) your face towards the religion (of pure Islamic Monotheism) Haneef (worship none but Allah Alone). Allah&rsquo;s Fitrah (i.e. Allah&rsquo;s Islamic Monotheism) with which He has created mankind.&rdquo; [30:30]
Man&rsquo;s sound nature (fitrah) testifies to the existence of God and man cannot turn away from this unless the devi...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[The Message - Muhammad Prophet of God Documentary Film]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[The Message - A documentary film about the truth of Islam and the Prophet Muhammad(pbuh)
The makers of this film honor the Islamic tradition which holds that the impersonation of the Prophet offends against the spirituality of his message. Therefore, the person of Mohammad will not be shown (or heard).
A Quote from the director Moustapha Akkad from a 1976 interview: "I did the film because it is a personal thing for me. Besides its production values as a film, it has its story, its intrigue, its drama. Besides all this I think there was something personal, being a Muslim myself who lived in the west I felt that it was my obligation my duty to tell the truth about Islam. It is a religion that has a 700 million following, yet it's so little known about which surprised me. I thought I should tell the story that will bring this bridge, this gap to the west."]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[How to can one obtain success and prosperity in this world and the hereafterHereafter.What kind of success or prosperity that does iIslam want the ummah iIslamto gain in this world.Praise be to Allah.Peace of mind, contentment, happiness and freedom from worries and anxiety&hellip; these are what everyone wants, and these are the ways in which people can have a good life and find complete happiness and joy. There are religious means of achieving this, and natural and practical means, but no one can combine all of them except the believers; although other people may achieve some of them, they will miss out on others.
Here follows a summary of the means of achieving this aim for which everyone is striving. In some cases, those who achieve many of them will live a joyful life and a good life; in other cases, those who fail to achieve all of them will live a life of misery and hardship. And there are others which are in between, according to the means they are able to attain. These means include the following:
1 &ndash; Faith and righteous deeds:
This is the greatest and most fundamental of means. Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Whoever works righteousness &mdash; whether male or female &mdash; while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to him We will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and We shall pay them certainly a reward in proportion to the best of what they used to do (i.e. Paradise in the Hereafter).&rdquo;
[al-Nahl 16:97]
Allah tells us and promises us that whoever combines faith with righteous deeds will have a good life and a good reward in this world and in the Hereafter.
The reason for this is clear: those who believe in Allah &ndash; with sincere faith that motivates them to do righteous deeds that change hearts and attitudes and guides them to the straight path in this world and the Hereafter &ndash; follow principles and guidelines by means of which they deal with everything that happens to them, be it the ca...]]></video:description>

Rather He gave him what he needs of food, drink and clothing, and revealed to him throughout the ages a path to follow and be guided by. The interests and happiness of mankind at every time and in every place depend upon following the path of Allaah and rejecting all others: &ldquo;And verily, this (i.e. Allaah&rsquo;s Commandments mentioned in the above two Verses 151 and 152) is My straight path, so follow it, and follow not (other) paths, for they will separate you away from His path. This He has ordained for you that you may become Al-Muttaqoon (the pious)&rdquo;[al-An&rsquo;aam 6:153 &ndash; interpretation of the meaning] Islam is the last of the heavenly religions and the Qur&rsquo;aan is the last of the heavenly Books. Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) is the last of the Prophets and Messengers. Allaah commanded him to convey this religion to all of mankind: &ldquo;this Qur&rsquo;aan has been revealed to me that I may therewith warn you and whomsoever it may reach&rdquo;[al-An&rsquo;aam 6:18] Allaah sent His Messenger Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) with Islam to all of mankind, as Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): &ldquo;Say (O Muhammad): &lsquo;O mankind! Verily, I am sent to you all as the Messenger of Allaah&rsquo;&rdquo;[al-A&rsquo;raaf 7:158] Da&rsquo;wah or calling others to Islam is the best of deeds, because it involves guiding people to the Straight Path and to that which will bring them happiness in this world and in the Hereafter: &ldquo;And who is better in speech than he who [says: &lsquo;My Lord is Allaah (believes in His Oneness),&rsquo; and then stands firm (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allaah&rsquo;s (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: &lsquo;I am one of the Muslims.&rsquo;&rdquo;[Fussilat 41:33 &ndash; interpretation of the meaning] Calling others to Islam is...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Definition of Tawheed]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Shaykh Yasir Qadhi academically explains the definition of Tawheed (Islamic Monotheism) from the knowledge of Qur'an and Sunnah; the authentic traditions of Prophet Muhammed (peace be upon him)
Filmed in London in February 2009 at the AlMaghrib Seminar - Light of Guidance: Fundamentals of Faith.
Before a student of knowledge masters the complexities of Arabic grammar, the intricacies of fiqh, or the details of hadeeth criticism, he or she must have firm knowledge and belief in the fundamentals of our deen. Our 'aqeedah is the pillar by which our deen stands firm, the fertile land from which all of our actions blossom, and it is the foundation from which all other Islamic sciences grow.
'Aqeedah is linguistically derived from the term 'aqadah' - a verb which means "to hold fast to" or "to establish". According to our scholars, 'aqeedah is the firm creed and beliefs that one's heart is fixed upon without any wavering or doubt. Are we certain about these beliefs to which our hearts should be tied? How well do we know the fundamental tenets of Islam, relating to our eman in Allah (swt), in the prophets, the books, the angels, the Last day and Qadr [fate]?]]></video:description>

_________________
ABOUT THE SPEAKER -
Abdur Raheem Green was born in Dar-es-salaam in Tanzania. His father was a colonial administrator in the then extant British Empire. By the time he was walking the old colonies were getting their independence, and his family moved back to the UK. He was sent to a Roman Catholic Monastic boarding school, Gilling Castle and then onto Ampleforth College. It was there that he really started to question what life was all about and how much sense the traditions he was being brought up with really made.
It was while he was working in the City (London) that his delving into every aspect of spirituality, philosophy and psychology came to a head. It was then when he picked up a copy of the Quran and upon reading it he was convinced that it was revelation from God, and thus started his journey into Islam. This was in 1987. Since that time he has been involved in letting others know about Islam.
He is well known for his efforts at the renowned "Speaker's Corner" in London's Hyde Park. Currently, he is engaged in different activities including media work (Peace TV and Islam Channel)

      <video:title><![CDATA[Forgiving Others]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[A short reminder titled "Forgiving others" by Sheikh Zahir Mahmood [apologies for the loud nasheed in the background].  Just as it is important to believe in the mercy and forgiveness of Allah, it is also necessary to base human relations on forgiveness. We cannot expect Allah's forgiveness unless we also forgive those who do wrong to us. Forgiving each other, even forgiving one's enemies is one of the most important Islamic teachings. In the Qur'an Allah has described the Believers as "those who avoid major sins and acts of indecencies and when they are angry they forgive." (ash-Shura 42: 37) Later in the same Surah Allah says, "The reward of the evil is the evil thereof, but whosoever forgives and makes amends, his reward is upon Allah." (al-Shura 42: 40) In another place the Qur'an says, "If you punish, then punish with the like of that wherewith you were afflicted. But if you endure patiently, indeed it is better for the patient. Endure you patiently. Your patience is not except through the help of Allah." (an-Nahl:126-127)  In one Hadith, the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said that Allah has commanded him about nine things; one of them he mentioned was "that I forgive those who do wrong to me."  The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, was the most forgiving person. He was ever ready to forgive his enemies. When he went to Ta'if to call the people to Islam, its people mistreated him. They abused him and hit him with stones.  He left the city humiliated and wounded. When he took shelter under a tree, the angel of Allah visited him and told him that Allah sent him to destroy the people of Ta'if because of their sin of mistreating their Prophet. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, prayed to Allah to save the people of Taif, because what they did was out of their ignorance. He said, "O Allah, guide these people, because they did not know what they were doing."  "Let not those among you who are endued with grace and amplitude of means resolve by oath against helping their kinsmen, th...]]></video:description>

إذا ما قال لي ربي .. أما استحييت تعصيني وتخفي الذنب عن خلقي .. وبالعصيان تأتيني If my Lord asks me "Have you no shame in disobeying me? You hide your faults from my creationyet full of sin you come to Me"
فكيف أجيب يا ويحي .. ومن ذا سوف يحميني So what will I answer? O' Woe to me, and who shall protect me do you see?
أسلي النفس بالآمال .. من حين إلى حين I keep forestalling my soul with thoughts of hope from time to time
وأنسى ما وراء الموت .. ماذا بعد تكفيني And forgetting what is to come after death, and after I am warped in the sheets of the dead
كاني قد ضمنت العيش .. ليس الموت يأتيني As if I have guaranteed living forever, and that death will not overcome me
وجاءت سكرة الموت الشديدة من سيحميني Then the harsh drunkenness of death overtakes me, who now will be able to protect me?
نظرت إلى الوجوه أليس منهم من سيفديني I looked at the faces, is there not from amongst them who will ransom me?
سأسأل ما الذي قدمت في دنياي ينجيني I will be asked what have I put forth in my life to save myself
فكيف إجابتي من بعد ما فرطت في ديني So what will I answer, after I've been neglectful regarding my Deen
ويا ويحي ألم أسمع كلام الله يدعوني O' woe to me, did I not hear the Speech of Allah calling out to me??
ألم أسمع لما قد جاء في ق و يس Did I not hear what has come in Qaaf'n, wa Yaseen'i
ألم أسمع بيوم الحشر يوم الجمع والدين Did i not hear of the day the crowds will be summoned, the day we will be collected, and the day of al-Deen'i
ألم أسمع منادي الموت يدعوني يناديني...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[What is the commentary on the verse in which Allah, may He be exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning): &ldquo;Proceeding from between the back-bone [as-sulb] and the ribs [at-taraa&rsquo;ib]&rdquo; [at-Taariq 86:6-7]?.Praise be to Allaah.Firstly:
What the verse means is a reminder to man of his origin and that he was created from a water gushing forth, and that the One Who created him by means of His power and might is able to recreate him for the Reckoning. Az-Zamakhshari said: If you say: what is the connection between the words &ldquo;So let man see&hellip;&rdquo; [v. 5] and the verse that comes before it (&ldquo;There is no human being but has a watcher over him&rdquo;-- v. 4)? I would say: The connection is that when He said that over every human being there is a watcher, He followed that by advising man to think of his starting point in the first creation, so that he may know that the One Who created him is able to recreate him and recompense him, so let him strive for the Day of resurrection and recompense, and let him not cause his watcher to record anything but that which will make him happy in the Hereafter.
End quote from Tafseer al-Kashshaaf.
The sulb (translated above as backbone) is the back, according to the consensus of the commentators. As for the taraa&rsquo;ib (translated above as ribs), the scholars differed as to what it is and where it is located.
Imam at-Tabari (may Allah have mercy on him) said: The commentators differed as to what is meant by at-taraa&rsquo;ib and where they are located. Some said that the word at-taraa&rsquo;ib refers to the place where the necklace goes on a woman&rsquo;s chest. This was narrated from Ibn &lsquo;Abbaas, &lsquo;Ikrimah and others.
Others said that the taraa&rsquo;ib is the area between the shoulders and the chest. This was narrated from Mujaahid and others among the early generation.
Yet others said that what is meant is that it emerges from between a man&rsquo;s back and upper chest. This was narrated from Qataadah.
And there were other opinion...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[What is the duty of a Muslim towards a non-Muslim, whether he is a dhimmi in a Muslim country or in his own country, and the Muslim is living in the land of that non-Muslim? The duty I would like to have clarified is interactions of all kinds, starting with greeting and ending with celebrating the non-Muslim&rsquo;s festivals with him. Is it permissible to take him as a friend at work only? Please advise us, may Allah reward you.Praise be to Allaah.The duty of the Muslim towards a non-Muslim includes a number of things:
Firstly:
Da&lsquo;wah or calling him to Allah, may He be glorified and exalted. He should call him to Allah and explain to him the reality of Islam when possible, with regard to whatever issues he has knowledge about, because this is the greatest kindness that he can give to his fellow-citizens and to those whom he meets of Jews, Christians and others who may be mushrikeen (polytheists), because the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: &ldquo;The one who guides others to goodness will have a reward like that of the one who does it.&rdquo; And he (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said to &lsquo;Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), when he sent him to Khaybar and instructed him to call the Jews to Islam: &ldquo;By Allah, if Allah were to guide one man through you, that would be better for you than having red camels (the best kind).&rdquo; And he (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Whoever calls others to right guidance will have a reward like that of those who follow him, without that detracting from their reward in the slightest.&rdquo;
So calling him (the non-Muslim) to Islam, conveying Islam to him and being sincere towards him in that are among the best means of drawing close to Allah.
Secondly:
He should not wrong him, with regard to his physical wellbeing, his wealth or his honour. If he is a dhimmi (non-Muslim living under Muslim rule), musta&rsquo;man (one who is granted security in a Muslim land) or mu&lsquo;aahid (one with whose coun...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Ramadan Muslims]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What is RAMADAN ?.Praise be to Allaah. Ramadaan is one of the twelve Arabic months. It is a month which is venerated in the Islamic religion, and it is distinguished from the other months by a number of characteristics and virtues, including the following:
1 &ndash; Allaah has made fasting this month the fourth pillar of Islam, as He says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;The month of Ramadan in which was revealed the Qur&rsquo;aan, a guidance for mankind and clear proofs for the guidance and the criterion (between right and wrong). So whoever of you sights (the crescent on the first night of) the month (of Ramadan i.e. is present at his home), he must observe Sawm (fasts) that month&hellip;&rdquo;
[al-Baqarah 2:185]
and it was narrated in al-Saheehayn (al-Bukhaari, 8; Muslim, 16) from the hadeeth of Ibn &lsquo;Umar that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Islam is built on five (pillars): the testimony that there is no god except Allaah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allaah; establishing prayer; paying zakaah; fasting Ramadaan; and Hajj to the House (the Ka&rsquo;bah).&rdquo;
2 &ndash; Allaah revealed the Qur&rsquo;aan in this month, as He says in the verse quoted above (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;The month of Ramadan in which was revealed the Qur&rsquo;aan, a guidance for mankind and clear proofs for the guidance and the criterion (between right and wrong)&hellip;&rdquo;
[al-Baqarah 2:185]
And Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Verily, We have sent it (this Qur&rsquo;aan) down in the Night of Al-Qadr (Decree).&rdquo;
[al-Qadr 97:1]
3 &ndash; Allaah has made Laylat al-Qadr in this month, which is better than a thousand months, as Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Verily, We have sent it (this Qur&rsquo;aan) down in the Night of Al-Qadr (Decree).
And what will make you know what the Night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is?
The Night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is better than a thousand months (i.e. worshipping Allaah in that night is bet...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[To Veil or Not to Veil]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Could u please supply me with some qoutes from the Hadith and Quran on the importance of hijab for women.Praise be to Allaah. Verses that have to do with hijab:
1 &ndash; Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And tell the believing women to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts) and not to show off their adornment except only that which is apparent (like both eyes for necessity to see the way, or outer palms of hands or one eye or dress like veil, gloves, headcover, apron), and to draw their veils all over Juyoobihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms) and not to reveal their adornment except to their husbands, or their fathers, or their husband&rsquo;s fathers, or their sons, or their husband&rsquo;s sons, or their brothers or their brother&rsquo;s sons, or their sister&rsquo;s sons, or their (Muslim) women (i.e. their sisters in Islam), or the (female) slaves whom their right hands possess, or old male servants who lack vigour, or small children who have no sense of feminine sex. And let them not stamp their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment. And all of you beg Allaah to forgive you all, O believers, that you may be successful&rdquo;
[al-Noor 24:31]
2 &ndash; Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And as for women past childbearing who do not expect wedlock, it is no sin on them if they discard their (outer) clothing in such a way as not to show their adornment. But to refrain (i.e. not to discard their outer clothing) is better for them. And Allaah is All‑Hearer, All‑Knower&rdquo;
[al-Noor 24:60]
&ldquo;Women past childbearing&rdquo; are those who no longer menstruate, so they can no longer get pregnant or bear children.
We shall see below the words of Hafsah bint Sireen and the way in which she interpreted this verse.

      <video:title><![CDATA[Can I Work as a Cashier in a Bank?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What is the definition of riba? If we take into account the fact that in most countries the economy is based on the principle of the circulation of capital, which includes lending, is accepting payment in that particular currency for any work regarded as an action that supports the riba-based system ? Is using the currency of a state that is based on riba regarded as contributing to the usurious economy? Undoubtedly the employee in a riba-based bank plays a part in riba-based transactions one way or another, even if he is a security guard for the bank. Could you offer him a better job if you have anything to offer?Praise be to Allah.Riba means an increase in a particular item. The word is derived from a root meaning increase or growth. Allah, may He be exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning): &ldquo;Whatever you pay as interest so that it may increase (li yarbu) the wealth of people does not increase (fa la yarbu) in the sight of Allah&rdquo; [ar-Room 30:39]., i.e., it does not increase or rise in status before Allah.
Riba originated among the people of the Jaahiliyyah; if a debt became due, they would say to him (the borrower): Give us one hundred (that is due, now), or increase it to one hundred and fifty (and pay later). Then when the one hundred and fifty became due, they would say: Give us one hundred and fifty (now), or increase it to two hundred (and pay later) -- and so on.
Islam also forbade another kind of riba, namely riba al-fadl, which means adding to the amount when exchanging one item for another of the same type. So if gold is sold for gold, that is not permissible except like for like, hand to hand. Islam stipulated that the exchange should be done hand to hand and that the items or goods should be of the same quality. Whoever gives more or asks for more has engaged in riba. If he sells a saa&lsquo; of wheat for two saa&lsquo;s (of the same commodity), even if it is hand to hand, he has engaged in riba.
The principle of the circulation of capital exists in both the Muslim world and the n...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[I Committed Zina; Will Allah Forgive Me?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Three or four years ago I committed the sin of zina during the day in Ramadan (I ask Allah for forgiveness). Please note that I was not praying or fasting; I only fasted in front of people and I only prayed when I had no option but to pray in the presence of people who are older than me. I am single and, praise be to Allah, I have repented to Allah, may He be exalted, the Most Merciful, the Forgiving, the Oft-Forgiving, may He be glorified. Do I have to offer expiation for the sin of zina during the day in Ramadan?Praise be to Allah.We praise Allah, may He be exalted, for having guided you to repent from this grave sin. Whoever violates the sanctity of the sacred month by committing the sin of zina, repentance is a blessing from Allah, may He be exalted, that calls for gratitude and appreciation. The greatest act of gratitude for it is to adhere to it and persist in it, to continually ask for forgiveness and to regret what has happened in the past, as well as asking Allah, may He be exalted, in all places and at all times when supplication is answered, for pardon and forgiveness, in the hope that Allah will accept his repentance and forgive what has happened in the past. Allah, may He be exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;O you who believe! Turn to Allah with sincere repentance! It may be that your Lord will remit from you your sins, and admit you into Gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise) the Day that Allah will not disgrace the Prophet (Muhammad SAW) and those who believe with him, their Light will run forward before them and with (their Records Books of deeds) in their right hands they will say: "Our Lord! Keep perfect our Light for us (and do not put it off till we cross over the Sirat (a slippery bridge over Hell) safely) and grant us forgiveness. Verily, You are Able to do all things&rdquo;
[at-Tahreem 66:8].
With regard to expiation, it is obligatory for you, according to the consensus of the fuqaha&rsquo; of the four madhhabs. They have stated that expiation for intercourse duri...]]></video:description>

"And those who disbelieved will be driven to Hell in groups until, when they reach it, its gates are opened and its keepers will say: 'Did there not come to you messengers from yourselves, reciting to you the verses of your Lord and warning you of the meeting of this Day of yours?'

      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)
In addition, Islam is the only religion prevailing over all other religions. Allah states in the Holy Qur&rsquo;an :
&ldquo;To thee We sent the Scripture in the truth, confirming the scripture that came be...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Importance of the Wali]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Is it valid for the maternal uncle to be the wali in the marriage contract of his sister&rsquo;s daughter and to do the marriage contract for her?.Praise be to Allaah.It is confirmed that guardianship in the case of marriage belongs to the &lsquo;asbah, who are the male relatives on the father&rsquo;s side, such as the father, grandfather, son, brother, and paternal uncle.
With regard to the relatives on the mother&rsquo;s side, they are not among the &lsquo;asbah and there is no proof that they have the right of guardianship with regard to marriage.
We have previously discussed the &lsquo;asbah and their order of precedence with regard to guardianship in marriage in the answer to question number 99696.
But there are some cases in which it is valid for the maternal uncle to assume guardianship with regard to the marriage contract. They are:
1. When he has been appointed as a guardian by the father or the guardian who has the authority to do the marriage contract.
The scholars of the Standing Committee for Issuing Fatwas said:
If a person has the authority to do the marriage contract for a woman when one who is closer to her than him has given it up to him, or the rightful guardian has instructed that he should do the marriage contract for the woman under his guardianship, then it is permissible for him to do the marriage contract and that marriage is valid, because it is a right that was given to the one who was appointed and acted in his stead. End quote.

Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa&rsquo;imah, 18/174, 175
2. If he is the wali (guardian) when there are no male relatives on the father&rsquo;s side.
This is the view of some of the scholars, such as Imam Abu Haneefah (may Allah have mercy on him). But the majority of the scholars are of the view that the Muslim qaadi should be given precedence over him.
This has been discussed recently in t...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[The Ultimate Pleasure]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[It was narrated from Suhayb ar-Roomi (may Allah be pleased with him), from the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) that he said: &ldquo;When the people of Paradise enter Paradise, Allah &ndash; may He be blessed and exalted &ndash; will say: &lsquo;Do you want anything more?&rsquo; They will say: Have You not made our faces bright? Have You not admitted us to Paradise and saved us from Hell?&rsquo; Then the veil will be removed and they will not be given anything more beloved to them than looking at their Lord, may He be glorified and exalted.&rdquo; Narrated by Muslim. According to this hadeeth, will the believers&rsquo; seeing Allah after entering Paradise happen only once, or will the people of Paradise see Allah all the time and at any time, or will it be once every Friday, as I have heard before?Praise be to AllahPart of the belief of Ahl as-Sunnah wa&rsquo;l-Jamaa&lsquo;ah is that the believers will see their Lord, may He be glorified, on the Day of Resurrection and in Paradise, because Allah, may He be exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Some faces that Day shall be Nadirah (shining and radiant).
Looking at their Lord (Allah).&rdquo;
[al-Qiyaamah :22-23].
And there is other evidence to that effect.
This is the greatest blessing that He, may He be glorified, will bestow upon them.
See also the answers to questions no. 14525 and 116644.
Secondly:
The people of Paradise will have a gathering with their Lord every Friday on which they will have the blessing of gazing upon His noble Countenance.
At-Tabaraani narrated in al-Mu&lsquo;jam al-Kabeer (6717) that Anas ibn Maalik said: The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Jibreel came to me with something like a white mirror in his hand, on which there was a black spot. I said: &lsquo;What is this, O Jibreel?&rsquo; He said: &lsquo;This is Jumu&lsquo;ah (Friday); it is the master of days and we call it Yawm al-Mazeed (the day of more &ndash; cf. &ldquo;There they will have all that they desi...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Salah Prayer in Street]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What is Description of the Prophet&rsquo;s prayer ?.Praise be to Allah1 &ndash; Facing the direction of the Ka&rsquo;bah
1- When you stand up to pray, face the direction of the Ka&rsquo;bah wherever you are, in both fard (obligatory) and naafil (supererogatory) prayers. This is one of the pillars of prayer, without which prayer is not valid.
2- The obligation of facing the direction of prayer does not apply to one who is engaged in warfare, when he prays the fear prayer (salaat al-khawf) or is engaged in heavy fighting. It also does not apply to those who are unable to do it, such as one who is sick, or one who is traveling on a ship, in a car or on a plane, if they fear that the time of the prayer will elapse (before they reach a place where they can find the correct direction). And it does not apply to one who is praying a naafil prayer or witr prayer whilst riding on a riding-animal etc., but it is mustahabb for him to face the qiblah if he is able to do so when pronouncing the takbeer of ihraam (at the beginning of the prayer), then he may face whatever direction he is facing.
3- Everyone who can see the Ka&rsquo;bah must face it; those who cannot see it must face its direction.
Ruling on not facing the Ka&rsquo;bah in prayer by mistake:
4- If a person prays not facing the qiblah, because of clouds [preventing him from working out the direction from the position of the sun] or some other reason, after he did his best to work out the right direction, his prayer is valid and he does not have to repeat it.
5- If someone whom he trusts comes &ndash; whilst he is praying &ndash; and tells him of the right direction, then he must hasten to turn that way, and his prayer is valid.
2 &ndash; Qiyaam (standing in prayer)
6- It is obligatory to pray standing. This is a pillar (essential part of prayer), except for the one who is praying the fear prayer or at times of intense fighting, when it is permitted to pray whilst riding; for the one who is sick and unable to stand, who should pray sitting if he is able, otherwi...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Success Through the Qur'an]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[How to can one obtain success and prosperity in this world and the hereafterHereafter.What kind of success or prosperity that does iIslam want the ummah iIslamto gain in this world.Praise be to Allah.Peace of mind, contentment, happiness and freedom from worries and anxiety&hellip; these are what everyone wants, and these are the ways in which people can have a good life and find complete happiness and joy. There are religious means of achieving this, and natural and practical means, but no one can combine all of them except the believers; although other people may achieve some of them, they will miss out on others.
Here follows a summary of the means of achieving this aim for which everyone is striving. In some cases, those who achieve many of them will live a joyful life and a good life; in other cases, those who fail to achieve all of them will live a life of misery and hardship. And there are others which are in between, according to the means they are able to attain. These means include the following:
1 &ndash; Faith and righteous deeds:
This is the greatest and most fundamental of means. Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Whoever works righteousness &mdash; whether male or female &mdash; while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to him We will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and We shall pay them certainly a reward in proportion to the best of what they used to do (i.e. Paradise in the Hereafter).&rdquo;
[al-Nahl 16:97]
Allah tells us and promises us that whoever combines faith with righteous deeds will have a good life and a good reward in this world and in the Hereafter.
The reason for this is clear: those who believe in Allah &ndash; with sincere faith that motivates them to do righteous deeds that change hearts and attitudes and guides them to the straight path in this world and the Hereafter &ndash; follow principles and guidelines by means of which they deal with everything that happens to them, be it the ca...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Hypocrisy - Two Faces]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What is hypocrisy and how dangerous is it for the Muslims?Praise be to Allaah.
Hypocrisy is a serious sickness and a great crime. It means making an outward display of Islam whilst inwardly concealing kufr. Hypocrisy is more dangerous than kufr (disbelief) and the punishment for it is more severe, because it is kufr mixed with Islam and its harmful effects are greater. Hence Allaah will put the hypocrites in the lowest level of Hell, as He says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Verily, the hypocrites will be in the lowest depth (grade) of the Fire; no helper will you find for them[al-Nisaa&rsquo; 4:145]
The hypocrites are always confused, always planning deceit and plots. Although outwardly they appear to be with the believers, inwardly they are with the kaafireen. So sometimes they are inclined towards the believers and sometimes they are inclined towards the kaafireen.
&ldquo;(They are) swaying between this and that, belonging neither to these nor to those; and he whom Allaah sends astray, you will not find for him a way (to the truth &mdash; Islam)&rdquo;[al-Nisaa&rsquo; 4:143 &ndash; interpretation of the meaning]
Because of the corruption of their hearts, the hypocrites are the most averse of mankind to the religion of Allaah, as Allaah tells us about them (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And when it is said to them: &lsquo;Come to what Allaah has sent down and to the Messenger (Muhammad),&rsquo; you (Muhammad) see the hypocrites turn away from you (Muhammad) with aversion&rdquo;
[al-Nisaa&rsquo; 4:61]
The dealings of the hypocrites revolve around their own interests. When they meet the believers, they make a show of belief and loyalty, in order to deceive the believers and as an action of dissimulation, hoping for whatever good and war-booty they have. But when they meet their masters and chiefs, they say, we are with you in your shirk and kufr. Allaah says concerning them (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And when they meet those who believe, they say: &ldquo;We believe,&rdquo; but wh...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[SubhanAllah this is one of the most amazing stories I have ever heard. There are many lessons one can learn from it.  This story has everything in it - sadness, joy, optimism, laughter and tears. It revolves around an irresponsible married man in his early 30s who is shocked to find out his first child is born blind. He fails to show any sort of love to him, but soon after is deeply affected by him.  The speaker is Khalid Rashid.  Also, the nasheed in the background does not have music if it may sound like it does to any of you.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[The Right Husband]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What are the most important factors for a woman in choosing a husband? If she rejects a righteous man for some worldly reasons, will she be punished by Allaah?



Praise be to Allaah.
The most important factors for a woman in choosing a husband are his attitude/behaviour and his commitment to religion. Wealth and lineage are secondary matters. The most important thing is that the potential husband should be religious and have a good attitude, because if a man has religious commitment and a good attitude, a woman has nothing to lose: if he keeps her (remains married to her), he will keep her on a reasonable basis, and if he divorces her, he will set her free on a reasonable basis. Moreover, a man who is religious and has a good attitude will be a blessing to her and her children, for they will learn good manners and religion from him. But if the prospective husband is not like that (is not religious), she should keep away from him, especially those who take the matter of prayer lightly or who are known to drink alcohol. We seek refuge with Allaah.
As for those who do not pray at all, they are kuffaar and it is not permissible for them to marry believing women. It is important for the woman to focus on the matter of attitude and religious commitment. With regard to the matter of lineage, this is a bonus. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;If there comes to you (to propose marriage to your daughter etc.) a man with whose religious commitment and attitude you are pleased, then marry (your daughter) to him.&rdquo;
But if you can manage to ensure compatibility (in terms of lineage and socio-economic status, etc.) as well, then this is better.


From the Fataawa of Shaykh Ibn &lsquo;Uthaymeen, from the book Fataawa al-Mar&rsquo;ah]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA["Holding a grudge is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die." Sh. Omar reminds us that, by holding grudges against others, we will only harm and frustrate ourselves. Instead of complaining to others, wouldn't you rather complain to Allah? And instead of making dua against the one who hurt you, wouldn't you rather make dua for yourself?]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Surah al-Furqan (The Criterion)
1. Blessed be He Who sent down the criterion (of right and wrong, i.e. this Qur'an) to His slave (Muhammad ) that he may be a warner to the 'Alamin (mankind and jinns).
2. He to Whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, and Who has begotten no son (children or offspring) and for Whom there is no partner in the dominion. He has created everything, and has measured it exactly according to its due measurements.
3. Yet they have taken besides Him other aliha (gods) that created nothing but are themselves created, and possess neither hurt nor benefit for themselves, and possess no power (of causing) death, nor (of giving) life, nor of raising the dead.
4. Those who disbelieve say: "This (the Qur'an) is nothing but a lie that he (Muhammad ) has invented, and others have helped him at it, so that they have produced an unjust wrong (thing) and a lie."
5. And they say: "Tales of the ancients, which he has written down, and they are dictated to him morning and afternoon."
6. Say: "It (this Qur'an) has been sent down by Him (Allah) (the Real Lord of the heavens and earth) Who knows the secret of the heavens and the earth. Truly, He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful."
7. And they say: "Why does this Messenger (Muhammad ) eat food, and walk about in the markets (like ourselves). Why is not an angel sent down to him to be a warner with him?
8. "Or (why) has not a treasure been granted to him, or why has he not a garden whereof he may eat?" And the Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers, etc.) say: "You follow none but a man bewitched."
9. See how they coin similitudes for you, so they have gone astray, and they cannot find a (Right) Path.
10. Blessed be He Who, if He will, will assign you better than (all) that, - Gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise) and will assign you palaces (i.e. in Paradise).
11. Nay, they deny the Hour (the Day of Resurrection), and for those who deny the Hour, We have prepared a flaming Fire (i.e. Hell).

      <video:title><![CDATA[The Power of Dua]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Dua (Supplication), something that carries so much power, yet has been neglected by many muslims around the world.&nbsp;What should one do to have his or her dua accepted -1. Sincerity in making du'aa'. This is the most important condition. Allaah has commanded us to be sincere when making du'aa', as He says (interpretation of the meaning):"So, call you (O Muhammad and the believers) upon (or invoke) Allaah making (your) worship pure for Him (Alone) (by worshipping none but Him and by doing religious deeds sincerely for Allaah's sake only and not to show off and not to set up rivals with Him in worship)" [Ghaafir40:14].Sincerity in du'aa' means having the firm belief that the One upon Whom you are calling -- Allaah, may He be glorified and exalted -- is alone Able to meet your need, and it also means avoiding any kind of showing off in your du'aa'.2. Repentance and turning back to Allaah. Sin is one of the main reasons why du'aa's are not answered, so the person who is making du'aa' should hasten to repent and seek forgiveness before he makes du'aa'. Allaah tells us that Nooh (peace be upon him) said:"I said (to them): 'Ask forgiveness from your Lord, verily, He is Oft-Forgiving; He will send rain to you in abundance, And give you increase in wealth and children, and bestow on you gardens and bestow on you rivers.' " [Nooh 71:10-12]3. Beseeching, humbling oneself, hoping for Allaah's reward and fearing His punishment. This is the spirit, essence and purpose of du'aa'. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): "Invoke your Lord with humility and in secret. He likes not the aggressors" [al-A'raaf&nbsp;7:55].4. Urgently beseeching and repeating the du'aa', without getting exasperated or bored; this is achieved by repeating the du'aa' two or three times. Restricting it to three times is preferable, in accordance with the Sunnah of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). Ibn Mas'ood (may Allaah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) liked to sa...]]></video:description>

Ibn Faaris said in Mu&rsquo;jam Maqaayees al-Lughah (4/307):
Ghayn and daad indicate restraining, as in the phrase ghadd al-basr (lowering the gaze)&hellip; End quote.
Ibn al-Manzoor said in Lisaan al-&lsquo;Arab (7/196):
Lowering the gaze (ghadd al-basr) means restraining it. End quote.
Secondly:
In Islamic terminology it refers to a number of things:
1 &ndash; Refraining from looking at people&rsquo;s &lsquo;awrahs, which includes the beauty of a non-mahram woman.
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allaah have mercy on him) said in Majmoo&rsquo; al-Fataawa (15/414):
Allaah, may He be glorified and exalted, has enjoined us in His Book to lower the gaze, which is of two types: refraining from looking at &lsquo;awrahs and refraining from looking at the site of desire.
The former refers to a man refraining from looking at the &lsquo;awrah of another person.
The second refers to looking at uncovered parts of a non-mahram woman. This is more serious than the former, just as alcohol is more serious than dead meat and blood and pork, and the hadd punishment should be carried out on the one who drinks it, because these haraam things are not as desirable as alcohol may be. End quote.
2 &ndash; Refraining from looking into people&rsquo;s houses and things that are behind closed doors
Ibn Taymiyah says in Majmoo&rsquo; al-Fataawa (15/379):
Just as lowering the gaze includes not looking at the &lsquo;awrahs of other people and other haraam things, it also includes refraining from looking into people&rsquo;s houses. A man&rsquo;s house conceals his body just as his garments conceal him. Allaah has mentioned lowering the gaze and guarding one&rsquo;s private parts after the verse about asking for permission to enter, because the house covers a person just as the clothes on his body do. End quote.
Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allaah have mercy on him) said i...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[The Fortunate Muslim Family]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What does Islam teach about the family and the roles of men , women and Children?Praise be to Allaah. Before we find out about the role of Islam in organizing and protecting the family, we should first find out what the situation of the family was before Islam, and what it is in the West in modern times.
Before Islam, the family was based on mistreatment and oppression. All affairs were controlled only by men or in other words, the males, and women and girls were oppressed and humiliated. An example of that is that if a man died and left behind a wife, his son by another wife had the right to marry her and control her life, or to prevent her from getting married. Men were the only ones who could inherit; women and children had no share. They viewed women, whether they were mothers, daughters or sisters, as a source of shame, because they could be taken as prisoners, thus bringing shame upon the family. Hence a man would bury his infant daughter alive, as is referred to in the Qur&rsquo;aan, where Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And when the news of (the birth of) a female (child) is brought to any of them, his face becomes dark, and he is filled with inward grief!
He hides himself from the people because of the evil of that whereof he has been informed. Shall he keep her with dishonour or bury her in the earth? Certainly, evil is their decision&rdquo;
[al-Nahl 16:58]
The family in the broader sense, i.e., the tribe, was based on supporting one another in all things, even in wrongdoing.
When Islam came, it did away with all that and established justice, giving each person his or her rights, even nursing infants, and even the miscarried foetus who was to be respected and prayed for (i.e., given a proper funeral).
When you examine the family in the West today you will find that families are disintegrating and the parents cannot control their children, whether intellectually or morally. The son has the right to go wherever he wants and do whatever he wants; the daughter has the right to sit wit...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[What should we say to the Muslims on the occasion of the beginning of Ramadaan?.Praise be to Allaah. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;The month of Ramadan in which was revealed the Qur&rsquo;aan, a guidance for mankind and clear proofs for the guidance and the criterion (between right and wrong). So whoever of you sights (the crescent on the first night of) the month (of Ramadan i.e. is present at his home), he must observe Sawm (fasts) that month, and whoever is ill or on a journey, the same number [of days which one did not observe Sawm (fasts) must be made up] from other days. Allaah intends for you ease, and He does not want to make things difficult for you. (He wants that you) must complete the same number (of days), and that you must magnify Allaah [i.e. to say Takbeer (Allaahu Akbar: Allaah is the Most Great)] for having guided you so that you may be grateful to Him.&rdquo;
[al-Baqarah 2:185]
This blessed month is a great opportunity for goodness, barakah (blessing), worship and obedience towards Allaah.
It is a great month, a noble season, a month in which hasanaat (rewards for good deeds) are multiplied and in which committing sayi&rsquo;aat (bad deeds) is more serious than at other times. The gates of Paradise are opened and the gates of Hell are shut, and the sinners&rsquo; repentance to Allaah is accepted.
So give thanks to Him for the season of goodness and blessing that He has bestowed upon you, and for the means of bounty and various kinds of great blessings for which He has singled you out. Make the most of this blessed time by filling it with acts of worship and forsaking haraam things, so that you may attain a good life in this world and happiness after death.
For the sincere believer, every month is an occasion for worship and his whole life is spent in obeying Allaah, but in the month of Ramadaan he has even more motives to do good and his heart is even more focused on worship, and he turns even more to his Lord. By His grace, our generous Lord bestows His bounty upon the...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Could u please supply me with some qoutes from the Hadith and Quran on the importance of hijab for women.Praise be to Allaah. Verses that have to do with hijab:
1 &ndash; Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And tell the believing women to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts) and not to show off their adornment except only that which is apparent (like both eyes for necessity to see the way, or outer palms of hands or one eye or dress like veil, gloves, headcover, apron), and to draw their veils all over Juyoobihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms) and not to reveal their adornment except to their husbands, or their fathers, or their husband&rsquo;s fathers, or their sons, or their husband&rsquo;s sons, or their brothers or their brother&rsquo;s sons, or their sister&rsquo;s sons, or their (Muslim) women (i.e. their sisters in Islam), or the (female) slaves whom their right hands possess, or old male servants who lack vigour, or small children who have no sense of feminine sex. And let them not stamp their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment. And all of you beg Allaah to forgive you all, O believers, that you may be successful&rdquo;
[al-Noor 24:31]
2 &ndash; Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And as for women past childbearing who do not expect wedlock, it is no sin on them if they discard their (outer) clothing in such a way as not to show their adornment. But to refrain (i.e. not to discard their outer clothing) is better for them. And Allaah is All‑Hearer, All‑Knower&rdquo;
[al-Noor 24:60]
&ldquo;Women past childbearing&rdquo; are those who no longer menstruate, so they can no longer get pregnant or bear children.
We shall see below the words of Hafsah bint Sireen and the way in which she interpreted this verse.
3 &ndash; Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)
In addition, Islam is the only religion prevailing over all other religions. Allah states in the Holy Qur&rsquo;an :
&ldquo;To thee We sent the Scripture in the truth, confirming the scripture that came be...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[What is the Proof for Judgement Day?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Where is Allah?Can we meet Allah in last judgement day?Praise be to Allaah.
Evidence in the Qur&rsquo;aan and Sunnah points to the fact that Allaah is above the heavens, seated on the Throne in a manner that befits His Majesty and Greatness. Allaah says in the Qur&rsquo;aan (interpretation of the meaning):
"The Most Beneficent istawaa (rose over) the (Mighty) Throne (in a manner that suits His majesty)." [Ta-Ha 20:5] (For more information, please see question #992 ).
As for meeting Allaah and seeing Him: meeting Him occurs after death and on the Day of Judgement; seeing Him will occur only on the Day of Judgement. Concerning the meeting with Allaah after death, Imaam al-Bukhaari (may Allaah have mercy on him) reported in his Saheeh, in the chapter on "whoever loves to meet Allaah, Allaah loves to meet him":
From &lsquo;Ubaadah ibn al-Saamit, from the Prophet (Peace &amp; Blessings of Allaah be upon Him) who said: "Whoever loves to meet Allaah, Allaah will love to meet him, and whoever hates to meet Allaah, Allaah will hate to meet him." &lsquo;Aa&rsquo;ishah or one of his wives said: "But we all dislike the idea of death." He said, "It is not what you are thinking. When death approaches the believer and he is given the news of Allaah&rsquo;s pleasure and honour, nothing will be more dear to him than what lies ahead of him, so he will love to meet Allaah and Allaah will love to meet him. But when death approaches the disbeliever and he is given the news of Allaah&rsquo;s wrath and punishment, nothing will be more disliked by him that what lies ahead of him, so he will hate to meet Allaah and Allaah will hate to meet him." (Saheeh al-Bukhaari, 6026).
The words "nothing will be more dear to him than what lies ahead of him" refer to what he will go through after death. Muslim and al-Nisaa&rsquo;i report that Shurayh ibn Haani&rsquo; said: "I said to &lsquo;Aa&rsquo;ishah: &lsquo;I have heard a hadeeth which, if it is as I heard it, means that we are doomed. The hadeeth says: "There is not one of us who does not di...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Where is Dajjal?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Who is the Dajjaal and what are his attributes?Praise be to Allaah. Meaning of the word Maseeh (Messiah)
There are over fifty scholarly comments on the meaning of the word Maseeh (Messiah). They said that this word is applied both to the Truthful One [True Messiah, i.e., &lsquo;Eesa (Jesus)] and to the misleading liar [the &ldquo;antichrist&rdquo; or Dajjaal]. The Messiah is the Truthful One, &lsquo;Eesa ibn Maryam (Jesus the son of Mary), the Messiah of guidance, who healed those who were born blind and lepers, and brought the dead to life by Allaah&rsquo;s Leave.
The false messiah (al-maseeh al-dajjaal) is the liar who leads people astray, the messiah of misguidance who will tempt people by means of the signs that he is given, such as bringing down rain, reviving the earth to bring forth vegetation, and other &ldquo;miracles.&rdquo;
So Allaah has created two messiahs, who are opposites of one another.
The scholars said that the reason why the Dajjaal is called maseeh (a &ldquo;messiah&rdquo;) is because one of his eyes is mamsooh (lit. &ldquo;wiped&rdquo;; smooth or abraded, i.e., he will be blind or defective in one eye). Or it was said that it is because he will survey or travel throughout the earth (yamsah) in forty days&hellip; The former view is more correct, because of what was said in the hadeeth narrated by Muslim (no. 5221) from Anas ibn Maalik, who said: &ldquo;The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &lsquo;The Dajjaal will be blind (mamsooh) in one eye, and between his eyes will be written &lsquo;kaafir&rsquo;&hellip;&rsquo;&rdquo;.
Meaning of the word Dajjaal
The word Dajjaal is taken from the expression &ldquo;Dajjala al-ba&rsquo;eer (he smeared the camel)&rdquo;, referring to when they covered it with tar.
The root dajala means to mix. The word dajala is used to mean deliberately confusing matters and being vague and ambiguous, The Dajjaal is the one who speaks in vagaries, who tells many lies and deceives many people.
The word &ldquo;Dajjaal&rdquo; became a ti...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[NFL players Hamza and Husain Abdullah will be making the Islamic Institute of Orange County the first masjid they visit for their "30 for 30 Abdullah Brothers Ramadan Tour" across America
http://www.abdullahbros.com
______________________
ABOUT THE TALK -
Advise from the NFL players Hamza and Husain Abdullah on ramadan.
____________
NFL players Hamza and Husain Abdullah might be best known for training while still observing a pillar of their Islamic Faith, fasting during the month of Ramadan, which coincides with the NFL training camp each year.
This year, the Muslim brothers will put their NFL careers on hold to observe another pillar of their faith, the pilgrimage to Mecca (Hajj) taking place during the 2012 NFL Season.
In preparation of their pilgrimage, the Abdullah brothers have arranged a "30 Mosques in 30 Days" tour to take place during Ramadan, which begins on or about July 20. During Ramadan, Hamza and Husain will travel across North America to promote interfaith dialogue and to deconstruct the negative connotations often associated with Islam.
In this interview with CNN, Minnesota Vikings' Husain Abdullah explains how he trains during Ramadan, while fasting from sunrise until sunset.
The brothers plan to have "Iftar," the Ramadan fast-breaking meal, in a different mosque every night during the month. They will also speak about fasting and its impact on athletes -- focusing on the importance of hydration and nutrition during Ramadan. They will also reach out to people of other faiths to challenge misconceptions about Islam.
Following their nationwide tour, the Abdullah brothers will travel to Mecca to participate in the Hajj.
When asked about their decision to postpone their NFL careers to fulfill their religious obligations, Hamza stated "It has been a blessing to play in the NFL for both Husain and I, but we would be remiss if we didn't give thanks to the One who made it all possible."
Husain echoed his brother's statement, "I visited Makkah, Saudi Arabia in March and a strong sense of urgency overc...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[How To Become a Muslim ?Praise be to Allaah.
All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)
In addition, Islam is the only religion prevailing over all other religions. Allah states in the Holy Qur&rsquo;an :
&ldquo;To thee We sent the Scripture in the truth, confirming the scripture that came be...]]></video:description>

Verily, I am sent to you all as the Messenger of Allaah&rsquo;&rdquo;[al-A&rsquo;raaf 7:158] Da&rsquo;wah or calling others to Islam is the best of deeds, because it involves guiding people to the Straight Path and to that which will bring them happiness in this world and in the Hereafter: &ldquo;And who is better in speech than he who [says: &lsquo;My Lord is Allaah (believes in His Oneness),&rsquo; and then stands firm (acts upon His Order), and] invites (men) to Allaah&rsquo;s (Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds, and says: &lsquo;I am one of the Muslims.&rsquo;&rdquo;[Fussilat 41:33 &ndash; interpretation of the meaning] Calling others to Islam is...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Good Character]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[How can I acquire good characteristics?.Praise be to Allaah.Firstly:
A good attitude is the characteristic of the best of the Messengers and is the best action of the righteous. It is &ndash; no doubt &ndash; half of religion, the fruit of the efforts of the pious and the practice of the devoted worshipper. Bad characteristics are lethal poison and lead to shameful consequences.
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;I have only been sent to perfect good characteristics.&rdquo; Narrated by al-Bukhaari in al-Adab al-Mufrad (273) and classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in al-Silsilah al-Saheehah (45).
It was narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) was asked about that which will admit most people to Paradise. He said: &ldquo;Fear of Allaah and a good attitude.&rdquo;
Narrated by al-Tirmidhi (2004); he said it is saheeh ghareeb. It was classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Tirmidhi.
Hence Islam paid a great deal of attention to laying down guidelines for treating diseases of the heart (i.e., spiritual diseases) and ways of acquiring good characteristics, which is regarded as one of the most important duties, because no heart will be free of sicknesses. If the heart is neglected, sicknesses will accumulate. No soul is free of inclinatons which, if they are given free rein, will lead it to doom in this world and in the Hereafter.
This kind of medicine requires profound knowledge of reasons and causes, then it needs hard work to remedy it and set things straight, in order to reach a successful outcome. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Indeed he succeeds who purifies his ownself&rdquo;
[al-Shams 91:9]
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to pray for a good attitude, saying, &ldquo;O Allaah, You have made my outward form beautiful so make my attitude good too.&rdquo; Narrated by Ibn Hibbaan in his Saheeh (3/239) and classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in ...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Allah's Command: Not a Joking Matter]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What are the conditions for joking to be permissible?Praise be to Allaah. 1 &ndash; It not should not involve any element of making fun of Islam.
That is one of the things that nullify a person&rsquo;s Islam. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;If you ask them (about this), they declare: &lsquo;We were only talking idly and joking.&rsquo; Say: &lsquo;Was it at Allaah, and His Ayaat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) and His Messenger that you were mocking?&rsquo;
Make no excuse; you disbelieved after you had believed&rdquo;
[al-Tawbah 9:65-66]
Ibn Taymiyah (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: &ldquo;Making fun of Allaah, His Signs and His Messenger is kufr (disbelief) and the one who does that disbelieves thereby after he had believed.&rdquo;
The same applies to making fun of some Sunnahs, an action which is widespread, such as making fun of the beard and the hijaab, or of shortening one&rsquo;s garment, etc.
Shaykh Muhammad ibn &lsquo;Uthaymeen said in al-Majmoo&rsquo; al-Thameen, 1/63:  &ldquo;The matters of Divine Lordship, Prophethood, Revelation and religion are sacred matters which are to be venerated. It is not permissible for anyone to show disrespect towards them, whether by mocking them to make others laugh or to poke fun at them. If anyone does that, he is a kaafir, because this is indicative of his disrespect towards Allaah and His Messengers, Books and Laws. Whoever does that has to repent to Allaah for what he has done, because that is a kind of hypocrisy. So he has to repent to Allaah, seek His forgiveness, mend his ways and develop fear of Allaah, veneration towards Him and love for Him in his heart. And Allaah is the Source of strength.
2 &ndash; The jokes should only be truthful.
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Woe to the one who tells lies to make people laugh, woe to him.&rdquo; (Narrated by Abu Dawood).
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, warning against this kind of behaviour which s...]]></video:description>

All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)

      <video:title><![CDATA[How Qur'an Changed the World]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[We would like to know what the Salaf (righteous predecessors) believed concerning the Holy Quran.Praise be to Allah.The belief of the Salaf concerning the Quran is like their belief in all the names and attributes of Allah, which is a belief that is based on what is indicated by the Book of Allah and the sunnah (teachings) of His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). We all know that Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, has described the Quran as being His Word and that it was sent down from Him. Allah, may He be exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And if anyone of the Mushrikoon (polytheists, idolaters, pagans, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah) seeks your protection then grant him protection, so that he may hear the Word of Allah (the Quran), and then escort him to where he can be secure.&rdquo; [9:6].
Undoubtedly what is meant by the Word of Allah here is the Noble Quran.
And He, may He be exalted, says:
&ldquo;Verily, this Quran narrates to the Children of Israel most of that about which they differ.&rdquo; [27:76].
So the Quran is the Word of Allah in both wording and meaning. Allah spoke it in a real sense and gave it to Jibril (peace be upon him) the trustworthy, then Jibril brought it down to the heart of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), so that he might be one of the warners, in a plain Arabic tongue.
The Salaf believe that the Quran was revealed; Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, revealed it to Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) piecemeal, i.e., bit by bit, over twenty-three years, in accordance with the wisdom of Allah, may He be glorified and exalted.
Moreover, some of the revelation was revealed for a specific reason for which it was sent down, and some of it was revealed without a specific reason. And some of it was revealed to tell of something that happened to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and his companions. Some of it was revealed concerning shar&lsquo;i (legal) rulings, according to what the...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Blessed Guest: Ramadan and the Qur'an]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What is RAMADAN ?.Praise be to Allaah. Ramadaan is one of the twelve Arabic months. It is a month which is venerated in the Islamic religion, and it is distinguished from the other months by a number of characteristics and virtues, including the following:
1 &ndash; Allaah has made fasting this month the fourth pillar of Islam, as He says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;The month of Ramadan in which was revealed the Qur&rsquo;aan, a guidance for mankind and clear proofs for the guidance and the criterion (between right and wrong). So whoever of you sights (the crescent on the first night of) the month (of Ramadan i.e. is present at his home), he must observe Sawm (fasts) that month&hellip;&rdquo;
[al-Baqarah 2:185]
and it was narrated in al-Saheehayn (al-Bukhaari, 8; Muslim, 16) from the hadeeth of Ibn &lsquo;Umar that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Islam is built on five (pillars): the testimony that there is no god except Allaah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allaah; establishing prayer; paying zakaah; fasting Ramadaan; and Hajj to the House (the Ka&rsquo;bah).&rdquo;
2 &ndash; Allaah revealed the Qur&rsquo;aan in this month, as He says in the verse quoted above (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;The month of Ramadan in which was revealed the Qur&rsquo;aan, a guidance for mankind and clear proofs for the guidance and the criterion (between right and wrong)&hellip;&rdquo;
[al-Baqarah 2:185]
And Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Verily, We have sent it (this Qur&rsquo;aan) down in the Night of Al-Qadr (Decree).&rdquo;
[al-Qadr 97:1]
3 &ndash; Allaah has made Laylat al-Qadr in this month, which is better than a thousand months, as Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Verily, We have sent it (this Qur&rsquo;aan) down in the Night of Al-Qadr (Decree).
And what will make you know what the Night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is?
The Night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is better than a thousand months (i.e. worshipping Allaah in that night is bet...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Qur'an: The Word of God]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allah.The Quran was revealed by Allah, may He be glorified, as a law and a reference as to what is permissible and prohibited, what is commanded and forbidden, for people to follow, so that they obey its commands and abide by its prohibitions, take what it allows as permissible and take what it prohibits as forbidden. The Quran tells us about what happened before and what is yet to come, and it is a reference for judging between us. Allah says (interpretation of the meaning): &ldquo;&hellip; We have neglected nothing in the Book&hellip;&rdquo; [6:38].
After the Revelation was completed, Allah said (interpretation of the meaning): &ldquo;&hellip; This day, I have perfected your religion for you&hellip;&rdquo; [5:3].
The Sunnah [words and deeds of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)] came to explain and complement the Quran. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: &ldquo;I have been given the Quran and something like it with it.&rdquo; The phrase &ldquo;something like it with it&rdquo; refers to the Sunnah. (saheeh/authentic hadeeth).
Allah commanded us to refer to these two constitutional references, when He said (interpretation of the meaning): &ldquo;&hellip;if you differ in anything amongst yourselves, refer it to Allah and His Messenger&hellip;&rdquo; [4:59].
Referring to Allah means referring to the Quran, and referring to His Messenger means referring to the sunnah. The Quran is the primary source of legislation, then comes the sunnah.
And Allah knows best.

      <video:title><![CDATA[What If This Is My Last Ramadhan?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Is it permissible to fast without praying?.Praise be to Allaah. No good deeds will be accepted from one who does not pray &ndash; no zakaah, no fasting, no Hajj or anything else.
Al-Bukhaari (520) narrated that Buraydah said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Whoever does not pray &lsquo;Asr, his good deeds will be annulled.&rdquo;
What is meant by &ldquo;his good deeds will be annulled&rdquo; is that they will be rendered invalid and will be of no benefit to him. This hadeeth indicates that Allaah will not accept any good deed from one who does not pray, so the one who does not pray will not benefit at all from his good deeds and no good deed of his will be taken up to Allaah.
It seems from the hadeeth that there are two types of those who do not pray: those who do not pray at all, which annuls all their good deeds, and those who do not offer a particular prayer on a particular day, which annuls the good deeds of that day. So annulment of all good deeds happens to those who forsake all the prayers, and annulment of the good deeds of a particular day happens to the one who omits a particular prayer.
Shaykh Ibn &lsquo;Uthaymeen was asked in Fataawa al-Siyaam (p. 87) about the ruling on the fasting of one who does not pray.
He replied:
The fast of one who does not pray is not valid and is not accepted, because the one who does not pray is a kaafir and an apostate, because Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;But if they repent [by rejecting Shirk (polytheism) and accept Islamic Monotheism], perform As-Salaah (Iqaamat-as-Salaah) and give Zakaah, then they are your brethren in religion&rdquo;
[al-Tawbah 9:11]
And the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Between a man and shirk and kufr stands his giving up prayer.&rdquo; Narrated by Muslim, 82. And he (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;The covenant that separates us from them is prayer; whoever gives up prayer is a kaafir.&rdquo; Narrated by al-Tirmidhi,...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Preparing for Ramadhan]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA["O you who believe! Observing as-sawm (the fasting) is prescribed for you as it was prescribed for those before you, that you may become Al-Muttaqun (the pious)." Al-Baqarah 2:183
How can we prepare for Ramadaan? What are the best deeds in this blessed month?.Praise be to Allaah.Firstly:
You have done well to ask this question, because you have asked how to prepare for the month of Ramadaan. Many people misunderstand the true nature of fasting, and they make it an occasion for eating and drinking, making special sweets and staying up late at night and watching shows on satellite TV. They make preparations for that long before Ramadaan, lest they miss out on some food or prices go up. They prepare by buying food, preparing drinks and looking at the satellite TV guide so they can choose which shows to follow and which to ignore. They are truly unaware of the real nature of fasting in Ramadaan; they take worship and piety out of the month and make it just for their bellies and their eyes.
Secondly:
Others are aware of the real nature of fasting in the month of Ramadaan, so they start to prepare from Sha&rsquo;baan, and some of them even start before that. Among the best ways of preparing for the month of Ramadaan are:
1 &ndash;Sincere repentance
This is obligatory at all times, but because of the approach of a great and blessed month, it is even more important to hasten to repent from sins between you and your Lord, and between you and other people by giving them their rights, so that when the blessed month begins you may busy yourself with acts of worship with a clean heart and peace of mind. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And all of you beg Allaah to forgive you all, O believers, that you may be successful&rdquo;
[al-Noor 24:31]
It was narrated from al-Agharr ibn Yasaar (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;O people, repent to Allaah for I repent to Him one hundred times each day.&rdquo; Narrated by Muslim (2702).

      <video:description><![CDATA[I have a friend from high school days who does not wear hijab and I do. I have advised her often to wear hijab, but she does not want to wear it. Now we are in university but my mother is now insisting that I do not go out with my friend or walk with her, because she wears tight clothes and does not wear hijab. My mother tells me: If you walk with her you will incur sin like her. Is this true? I love my friend and cannot keep away from her. My only contact with her now is by phone only, to see how she is, and I pray for her to be guided. What is the solution?.Praise be to Allaah.There is no problem such that you should seek a solution for it. What your mother says is correct and you have to obey her. This is obligatory for you for two reasons: from an Islamic point of view and because she is your mother.
There is no doubt that the Muslim is influenced by his friend, especially if he loves his friend dearly, because that love makes him turn a blind eye to his friend&rsquo;s sins and errors, and it may lead him to admire him to such an extent that he begins to imitate him in everything, even the way he walks. This is something that is seen a great deal but no one can deny it.
Moreover, one of the negative consequences of your walking with that friend who is uncovered is that you will also become a focal point for fools and human &ldquo;wolves&rdquo; who will judge you in the same way as they judge your friend. Her wanton display will encourage young men to enjoy looking at her, and if you agree to keep company with one who is like that, then how will those evil men regard you? You should understand that this friendship will turn to enmity of the Day of Resurrection, because this friendship was not based on adhering to the laws of Allah and obeying Him.
Allah says (interpretation of the meaning): &ldquo;Friends on that Day will be foes one to another except Al-Muttaqoon (the pious)&rdquo; [az-Zukhruf 43:67].
Al-Qurtubi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: &ldquo;Friends on that Day&rdquo; i.e., the Day of Resurrec...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Islamophobia]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[The newspaper al-Nakhbah al-Khaleejiyyah (issues nos. 128 and 133) mentioned a group of artists who start their songs with a mawwaal (poem in colloquial language) which starts with the singing of some verses from the Qur&rsquo;aan. This has become common among many artists and actors. What is the Islamic ruling on singing the verses of the Qur&rsquo;aan or giving them a tune like singing?Praise be to Allaah.
By the inherent nature (fitrah) with which he is born, man instinctively recognizes the enormity of this action and the seriousness of this sin, and the ugliness of this crime. The sound human nature which believes in pure Tawheed does not approve of these satanic practices.
All the Muslims are unanimously agreed that it is obligatory to respect and venerate the words of Allaah, and to protect them from faults and shortcomings.
The Qur&rsquo;aan is the word of Allaah and is one of His attributes. Allaah still speaks whenever He wills. This is what is indicated by the Qur&rsquo;aan and Sunnah, and this was the view of the imaams of Islam.
Mocking the words and Book of Allaah, or trying to undermine their sanctity and respect, is blatant kufr &ndash; no one would dispute that. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;If you ask them (about this), they declare: &lsquo;We were only talking idly and joking.&rsquo; Say: &lsquo;Was it at Allaah, and His Ayaat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) and His Messenger that you were mocking?&rsquo;
Make no excuse; you disbelieved after you had believed&hellip;&rdquo;
[al-Tawbah 9:65-66]
This aayah clearly states that those who mock Allaah, His Signs or His Messenger are kaafirs, regardless of whether they regard that as being permissible or not. Simply making fun of them is apostasy from Islam (riddah), according to the consensus of the Muslims, even if the person did not really intend to mock them but was &ldquo;only&rdquo; joking or trying to be funny.
Those people were guilty of kufr who said of the Prophet (peace and blessings o...]]></video:description>

All praise be to Allah, the lord of the universe. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon Mohammad, His last messenger.
The purpose of this hand-out is to correct a false idea spread among those willing to adopt Islam as their faith. Some people have a wrong notion that entering into th Islamic fold requires an announcement from the concerned person in the presence of high ranking scholars or shaikhs or reporting this act to courts of justice or other authorities. It is also thought that the act accepting Islam, should, as a condition, have a certificate issued by the authorities, as evidence to that effect.
We wish to clarify that whole matter is very easy and that none of these conditions or obligations are required. For Allah, Almighty, is above all comprehension and knows well the secrets of all hearts. Nevertheless, those who are going to adopt Islam as their religion are advised to register themselves as Muslims with the concerned governmental agency, as this procedure may facilitate for them many matters including the possibility of performing Hajj (Pilgrimage) and Umrah.
If anyone has a real desire to be a muslim and has full conviction and strong belief that Islam is the true religion ordained by Allah for all human-being, then, one should pronounce the &ldquo;shahada&rdquo;, the testimony of faith, without further delay. The Holy Qur&rsquo;an is explicit on this regard as Allah states :
&ldquo;The Religion in the sight of Allah is Islam&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:19)
in another verse of the Holy Qur&rsquo;an, Allah states :
&ldquo;If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (Submission to Allah), Never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (their selves in the hell fire).&rdquo; (Qur&rsquo;an 3:85)
In addition, Islam is the only religion prevailing over all other religions. Allah states in the Holy Qur&rsquo;an :

In al-Saheehayn it was reported from Ibn &lsquo;Abbaas that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to say, when he felt distressed:
&ldquo;La ilaaha ill-Allaah al-&lsquo;Azeem ul-Haleem, Laa ilaaha ill-Allaah Rabb il-&lsquo;arsh il-&lsquo;azeem, Laa ilaaha ill-Allaah Rabb is-samawaati wa Rabb il-ard wa Rabb il-&lsquo;arsh il-kareem (there is no god except Allaah, the All-Mighty, the Forbearing; there is no god except Allaah, the Lord of the Mighty Throne; there is no god except Allaah, Lord of the heavens, Lord of the earth and Lord of the noble Throne).&rdquo;
And it was reported from Anas (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to say, when something upset him:
&ldquo;Yaa Hayyu yaa Qayyoom, bi Rahmatika astagheeth (O Ever-Living One, O Everlasting One, by Your mercy I seek help).&rdquo;
And it was reported that Asmaa&rsquo; bint &lsquo;Umays (may Allaah be pleased with her) said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said to me: &ldquo;Shall I not teach you some words to say when you feel distressed? &lsquo;Allaah, Allaah, Rabbee laa ushriku bihi shay&rsquo;an (Allaah, Allaah, my Lord, I do not associate anything with Him).&rsquo;&rdquo;
It was reported from &lsquo;Abd-Allaah ibn Mas&rsquo;ood that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;No person suffers any anxiety or grief, and says:

      <video:description><![CDATA[When a person goes astray and deviates, does that happen by the will of Allaah or does Allaah not decree that?Praise be to Allaah. Shaykh al-Shanqeeti (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;He whom Allaah guides, he is the rightly-guided; but he whom He sends astray, for him you will find no Wali (guiding friend) to lead him (to the Right Path)&rdquo;[al-Kahf 18:17]
In this aayah, Allaah explains that guidance and misguidance are in His hand alone; whomsoever He guides none can lead astray, and whomsoever He sends astray, none can guide. This meaning is also expressed in many other aayahs, such as the following (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;He whom Allaah guides, he is the rightly-guided; but he whom He sends astray, for him you will find no Wali (guiding friend) to lead him (to the Right Path).&rdquo;[al-Israa&rsquo; 17:97]
&ldquo;Whomsoever Allaah guides, he is the guided one, and whomsoever He sends astray, &mdash; then those! they are the losers&rdquo;[al-A&rsquo;raaf 7:178]
&ldquo;Verily, you (O Muhammad) guide not whom you like, but Allaah guides whom He wills&rdquo;[al-Qasas 28:56]
&ldquo;And whomsoever Allaah wants to put in Al-Fitnah (error, because of his rejecting of Faith), you can do nothing for him against Allaah&rdquo;
[al-Maa&rsquo;idah 5:41]
&ldquo;If you (O Muhammad) covet for their guidance, then verily, Allaah guides not those whom He makes to go astray (or none can guide him whom Allaah sends astray). And they will have no helpers&rdquo;
[al-Nahl 16:37]
&ldquo;And whomsoever Allaah wills to guide, He opens his breast to Islam; and whomsoever He wills to send astray, He makes his breast closed and constricted, as if he is climbing up to the sky&rdquo;
[al-An&rsquo;aam 6:125]
And there are very many similar aayahs.
From these and similar aayahs in the Qur&rsquo;aan it may be understood that the view of the Qadariyyah, who say that man is independent in his actions, whether good or bad, and that does not happen by the will of Allaah ...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Defending the Deen]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Some people say that as Allah has guaranteed preserving this religion Himself, then all the work of the preachers for spreading and teaching Islam is useless and unneeded. How to answer those people?.Praise be to Allaah.The response to these people is simple: their attitude is the attitude of one who denies the principle of cause and effect, and there is no doubt that denying this principle is misguidance from Islam and foolish thinking.
Allaah has guaranteed to preserve this religion, but that is through means and causes, by means of what the daa&rsquo;iyahs do by spreading this religion and explaining it to people and calling people to it. This view is like that of those who say: Do not get married, and if it is decreed that you are to have a child, it will come to you; do not strive to seek provision for if provision is decreed for you it will come to you!
We know that when Allaah said (interpretation of the meaning): &ldquo;Verily, We, it is We Who have sent down the Dhikr (i.e. the Qur&rsquo;aan) and surely, We will guard it (from corruption)&rdquo; [al-Hijr 15:9], that was because He knew, as He is most wise, that things only happen due to causes. So Allaah decreed that this religion would be preserved through the means and causes that achieve this preservation. hence we find that the scholars of the early generations of Islam, when Allaah protected His religion from ideological and practical innovations, began to speak and write and explain to people. So it is essential that we do that which Allaah has enjoined upon us of defending Islam, protecting it and spreading it among people. Thus the required protection will be achieved. End quote.
Shaykh Muhammad ibn &lsquo;Uthaymeen -- Kitaab al-Da&rsquo;wah (5).]]></video:description>

Topic Discussed - Who is Allah (God)? Is he the same God as the bible or is he a different God?
________________________
ABOUT THE SPEAKER -
Abdur Raheem Green was born in Dar-es-salaam in Tanzania. His father was a colonial administrator in the then extant British Empire. By the time he was walking the old colonies were getting their independence, and his family moved back to the UK. He was sent to a Roman Catholic Monastic boarding school, Gilling Castle and then onto Ampleforth College. It was there that he really started to question what life was all about and how much sense the traditions he was being brought up with really made.
It was while he was working in the City (London) that his delving into every aspect of spirituality, philosophy and psychology came to a head. It was then when he picked up a copy of the Quran and upon reading it he was convinced that it was revelation from God, and thus started his journey into Islam.

      <video:description><![CDATA[How to can one obtain success and prosperity in this world and the hereafterHereafter.What kind of success or prosperity that does iIslam want the ummah iIslamto gain in this world.Praise be to Allah.Peace of mind, contentment, happiness and freedom from worries and anxiety&hellip; these are what everyone wants, and these are the ways in which people can have a good life and find complete happiness and joy. There are religious means of achieving this, and natural and practical means, but no one can combine all of them except the believers; although other people may achieve some of them, they will miss out on others.
Here follows a summary of the means of achieving this aim for which everyone is striving. In some cases, those who achieve many of them will live a joyful life and a good life; in other cases, those who fail to achieve all of them will live a life of misery and hardship. And there are others which are in between, according to the means they are able to attain. These means include the following:
1 &ndash; Faith and righteous deeds:
This is the greatest and most fundamental of means. Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Whoever works righteousness &mdash; whether male or female &mdash; while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to him We will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and We shall pay them certainly a reward in proportion to the best of what they used to do (i.e. Paradise in the Hereafter).&rdquo;
[al-Nahl 16:97]
Allah tells us and promises us that whoever combines faith with righteous deeds will have a good life and a good reward in this world and in the Hereafter.
The reason for this is clear: those who believe in Allah &ndash; with sincere faith that motivates them to do righteous deeds that change hearts and attitudes and guides them to the straight path in this world and the Hereafter &ndash; follow principles and guidelines by means of which they deal with everything that happens to them, be it the ca...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Love and Dating in Islam]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[I am a 24 years old girl. I fell in love, no dates, no meetings involved, pure love to a pure religious person. He promised to marry me and asked me to wait for him as his circumstances are difficult. I do not remember that he called me more than once. I asked him not to call me; because I feel this is wrong, although I love him. I felt that our love started going in the direction, he agreed to this feeling, and respected my opinion. He just sends me E-mails every so often via internet, so that I know his news. We have been in this love relationship for one year. I know this person and his family, and they know us well as well. I love him for Allah&rsquo;s sake and sure he loves me as well. The problem is that I started receiving proposals, about 8 so far. Every time I refuse because I promised to wait for him. Now I am confused, is what I am doing halal or haram? I pray, Alhamdulillah, all obligatory and optional prayers, and pray qiyaam in the night as well; I fear I lose my good deeds because of what I am doing. Is a pure chaste love haram? Is my love to him halal or haram?.Praise be to Allaah.First of all I ask Allaah to guide you and grant you happiness, and I ask Him to increase the numbers of girls like you who are keen to maintain chastity and purity and adhere to the sacred limits of Allaah in their affairs, among the most important of which are emotional relationships that many people take lightly, so they overstep the mark and transgress the sacred limits of Allaah, and Allaah tests them with problems that we read about and hear of, in which there is a lesson for every Muslim and for every wise person.
You should note that correspondence and contact between the sexes is one of the doors that lead to fitnah (temptation). Sharee&rsquo;ah is filled with evidence which indicates that it is essential to beware of falling into the traps of the shaytaan in this matter. When the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) saw a young man merely looking at a young woman, he turned his head so as to m...]]></video:description>

&ldquo;And (remember) when the angels said: &lsquo;O Maryam (Mary)! Verily, Allaah has chosen you, purified you (from polytheism and disbelief), and chosen you above the women of the &lsquo;Aalameen (mankind and jinn) (of her lifetime).&rsquo;

      <video:description><![CDATA[Could u please supply me with some qoutes from the Hadith and Quran on the importance of hijab for women.Praise be to Allaah. Verses that have to do with hijab:
1 &ndash; Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And tell the believing women to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts) and not to show off their adornment except only that which is apparent (like both eyes for necessity to see the way, or outer palms of hands or one eye or dress like veil, gloves, headcover, apron), and to draw their veils all over Juyoobihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms) and not to reveal their adornment except to their husbands, or their fathers, or their husband&rsquo;s fathers, or their sons, or their husband&rsquo;s sons, or their brothers or their brother&rsquo;s sons, or their sister&rsquo;s sons, or their (Muslim) women (i.e. their sisters in Islam), or the (female) slaves whom their right hands possess, or old male servants who lack vigour, or small children who have no sense of feminine sex. And let them not stamp their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment. And all of you beg Allaah to forgive you all, O believers, that you may be successful&rdquo;
[al-Noor 24:31]
2 &ndash; Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And as for women past childbearing who do not expect wedlock, it is no sin on them if they discard their (outer) clothing in such a way as not to show their adornment. But to refrain (i.e. not to discard their outer clothing) is better for them. And Allaah is All‑Hearer, All‑Knower&rdquo;
[al-Noor 24:60]
&ldquo;Women past childbearing&rdquo; are those who no longer menstruate, so they can no longer get pregnant or bear children.
We shall see below the words of Hafsah bint Sireen and the way in which she interpreted this verse.
3 &ndash; Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;O Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloa...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Sharing the Deen with the Deaf]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Are those who are deaf and mute accountable, and do they have to do the obligatory duties prescribed in sharee&rsquo;ah?Praise be to Allaah. Shaykh &lsquo;Abd al-&lsquo;Azeez ibn &lsquo;Abd-Allaah ibn Baaz explained that the child who is deaf and mute, when he reaches the age of puberty, is considered to be accountable and expected to fulfil the obligations of prayer, etc. He added that he may be taught what he needs to know by means of writing or signing, because of the general meaning of the shar&rsquo;i evidence which indicates that these obligations apply to everyone who reaches the age of puberty and is of sound mind. Puberty is reached at the age of fifteen, or when maniy (discharge) is emitted as a result of feeling desire in a dream (&ldquo;wet dream&rdquo;) or otherwise, and when coarse hair grows around the private parts. In the case of women, there is a fourth sign of puberty, which is the onset of menstrual periods. The shaykh called upon the guardian of the one who is deaf or mute to pay zakaah and fulfil other financial obligations on his behalf. He also has to teach him what he does not know by all possible means so that he will understand what Allaah requires of him and what Allaah has forbidden for him. The shaykh quoted as evidence the words of Allaah (interpretation of the meaning): &ldquo;So keep your duty to Allaah and fear Him as much as you can&rdquo; [al-Taghaabun 64:16] And the hadeeth of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): &ldquo;If I command you to do a thing, then do as much of it as you can.&rdquo; And the shaykh explained that the accountable person who cannot hear or speak, or who becomes unable to hear or speak, should fear Allaah and keep his duty towards Him as much as he can by doing that which is enjoined upon him and abstaining from that which is haraam. He should try to learn as much of the religion as possible, by watching, writing and signing, so that he may understand what is required.

      <video:title><![CDATA[Seeking Knowledge is an Obligation]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What does one need to become a scholar of Islam?You have asked about a serious matter, but it is easy for the one whom Allaah enables to do it. Knowledge is a sign of guidance. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;If Allaah wants to do good to a person, He gives him understanding of the religion.&rdquo; This is understood to mean that whoever Allaah does not wish good for, He does not give him understanding of the religion.
Al-Bukhaari (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: &ldquo;Chapter: it is essential to know a thing first before saying or acting upon it, according to the aayah (interpretation of the meaning):
&lsquo;So know (O Muhammad) that Laa ilaaha ill-Allaah (none has the right to be worshipped but Allaah),&rsquo;
[Muhammad 47:19]
So one should start with knowledge. The scholars are the heirs of the Prophets, i.e., they inherit knowledge. Whoever gains knowledge has gained great good fortune, and whoever follows a path to seek knowledge, Allaah will make easy for him the path to Paradise. Allaah said (interpretation of the meaning):
&lsquo;It is only those who have knowledge among His slaves that fear Allaah&rsquo;
[Faatir 35:28]
And Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&lsquo;but none will understand them except those who have knowledge&rsquo;
[al-&lsquo;Ankaboot 29:43]
&lsquo;And they will say: &ldquo;Had we but listened or used our intelligence, we would not have been among the dwellers of the blazing Fire!&rdquo;&rsquo;
[al-Mulk 67:10]
And He said:
&lsquo;Are those who know equal to those who know not?&rsquo;
[al-Zumar 39:9]
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Knowledge is gained by striving for it.&rdquo;
Ibn &lsquo;Abbaas said: &lsquo;Be faithful slaves to your Lord, patient and learned.&rsquo; And it is said that the good instructor is the one who starts teaching people simple matters of knowledge before more difficult ones.&rdquo;
It was narrated that Qays ibn Katheer said: &ldquo;A man came from Madeenah ...]]></video:description>

This conference is one of the most groundbreaking events to happen in the UK for the past 10 years. In a world full of suffering, wars, poverty, family breakdown how can we make the important changes that can transform lives positively the world over?
We believe that, dawah, the method of the Prophet Muhammad (saw) to call the people to 'all that is good' is the way to make this transformation happen. Dawah defines who we are, and through it, lies the power of positive change.

      <video:title><![CDATA[Making the Changes]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[I am thirty years old. I was sinning till five years ago, yet I was praying. Then I got married and travelled to France. Many problems happened to me and I found that the only solution is to return to Allah and repent. So I repented, all praise be to Allah. I started memorising the Quran and seeking Islamic knowledge. I fast the optional fasting throughout the year, I do not miss any prayer in the masjid except rarely; I do not miss the first takbeerah (opening) of any salah (formal prayer) for forty days. All praise be to Allah as He should be praised. As a result of this, my circumstances improved a lot, and I felt a very big positive change in myself as well. The more I obey, the more Allah blesses me, Allah is watching, He knows I am truthful. The problem is that I do not know why I am exerting effort in worship; is it for the gain of the hereafter or for worldly benefits? If I give in charity for example, I am not sure if I am really seeking the pure reward or because I know that Allah will bless me with much more than what I gave in charity. I am starting to doubt myself; am I a hypocrite?Praise be to Allah.I congratulate you, my brother, on having been guided to repent to Allah and come back to the right path. This is a blessing that has been bestowed upon you for which you should be thankful, because it is the aim of every believer, and this is the most important thing in this world and the Hereafter. Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Allah does not grant His love to the penitents but they become the elite of people before Him. Were it not that repentance is a word that encompasses all the laws of Islam and truths of faith, the Lord would not rejoice so greatly over the repentance of His slave. End quote.
Madarij al-Salikeen (1/343)
The fact that the harder you strove in worship, the more means of finding halal (lawful) provision became available to you shows that fearing and obeying Allah brings provision, as Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And whosoever fears Allah ...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Top 5 Reasons Jesus Christ is not God]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Why is it so difficult for the Muslims to believe that Jesus is the only son of God, when it says in the gospel that he is the son of God and he says of God &ldquo;My Father&rdquo;?.Praise be to Allaah.We have previously explained that the Gospel in which we believe, and no one's Islam is valid unless he believes in it, is not the gospels that are in the hands of the Christians nowadays. Rather the Gospel in which we believe is that which was brought by &lsquo;Eesa (Jesus &ndash; peace be upon him) from Allaah. As for that which is in the hands of the Christians today, it is something else, and they themselves do not claim that Jesus is the one who brought it or wrote it. See question no. 47516.
As that is the case, what the Christians claim about the Gospels stating that Jesus is the son of God and that God is his father &ndash;exalted be Allaah above having a son or a wife &ndash; does not count as any kind of proof against us, because we believe that that is something that was fabricated by human beings, and it is not part of the religion of Jesus (peace be upon him) or the religion of any other Messenger.
We believe that the Gospels that are in people&rsquo;s hands today, in which the Christians believe, have been tampered with and changed, and are still being tampered with from time to time, so that there is nothing left in the form in which the Gospel was revealed from Allaah. Here we would point out that the Gospel which speaks most of the belief in the trinity and the divinity of the Messiah (peace be upon him), so that it has become a reference-point for the Christians in their arguments in support of this falsehood, is the Gospel of John. This Gospel is subject to doubts about its authorship even among some Christian scholars themselves, as is not the case with the other Gospels in which they believe. This is an ancient doubt which goes back to the second century CE according to their own history.
Professor Stadlin says: The entire Gospel of John was written by one of the students of the Alexandri...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[I have a dear friend that has converted to Islam. I am in support of her decision, but would like to understand the way this religion goes about dating. Could you explain the process? Also, how does one go about converting to Islam? What is the process? How long does it take?To the venerable Ms. (name withheld) (may Allah protect you from every evil), Please accept from me a good-intentioned greeting!
I was extremely pleased to receive your questions regarding the nature of the relationship between men and women in Islam and how one goes about embracing this religion. I also commend and appreciate your wise and mature sense of judgment in supporting your friend's decision to accept Islam. It shows admirable wisdom and a balanced sense of sagacity and understanding of this blessed event.
Regarding the issue of dating in Islam, one must first define what is meant by "dating." If it is understood to mean how a man and a woman get to know each other for the purpose of marriage, then there are certain guidelines and established procedures which can be discussed. However, if it is understood to refer to casual relationships between men and women who for the purpose of "fun" or "going out" and the such, then there is no provision for this in Islam. Such a situation is not considered respectful for neither the man nor the woman, nor is it constructive for the concept or the building of the family or society or social responsibility. Opening the door to relationships of love and infatuation and passion and pre-marital sex is categorically prohibited in Islam. It does not lead to the establishment of a family nor to proper and virtuous upbringing of children nor to stability and mutual care and tranquility and peace of mind between a man and woman. Rather, it leads to disorder, the disgracing of one's honor and dignity, and to a lifestyle similar to that of animals, and to that of illegitimate children who are subjected to life of vagrancy and loss. (Please see question # 61 which addresses the issue of prohibition of...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Misconceptions: Culture and Religion]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[A matter is bothering me, that is, how to distinguish between following the Prophet&rsquo;s (may Allah&rsquo;s peace and blessings be upon him) actions as a &ldquo;Sunnah&rdquo; and not following them because they are from his habits or customary practices. Examples of this would be the wearing of the turban or lengthening of the hair. It is known that the &ldquo;Sunnah&rdquo; refers to the sayings, actions or tacit approvals of the Prophet Muhammad (may Allah&rsquo;s peace and blessings be upon him), so what is the gauge by which I measure? If we were to say that the action had to be accompanied by an order then it would be considered a verbal Sunnah (i.e. from the sayings). Kindly explain.Praise be to Allaah.Firstly:
The &ldquo;Sunnah&rdquo; is what has been established from the Prophet (may Allah&rsquo;s peace and blessings be on him) of his sayings, actions or tacit approvals.
The basic principle with regards to his sayings is that they are for legislation. This is because he is conveying (this message) on behalf of His Lord, and he was sent as a guide for the creation, and he was ordered to inform and clarify matters for the people, as Allah says (what means): &ldquo;And We revealed to you the message that you may make clear to the people what was sent down to them&rdquo; (16:44) and He said (what means): &ldquo;O Messenger, announce that which has been revealed to you from your Lord, and if you do not, then you have not conveyed His message.&rdquo; (5:67)
The proof for this general principle (that the words of the Prophet - may Allah&rsquo;s peace and blessings be upon him - are considered to be legislation) is the hadeeth reported by Abu Dawud (3646): Abdullah ibn &lsquo;Amr said: &ldquo;I used to write everything I heard from the Messenger of Allah (may Allah&rsquo;s peace and blessing be upon him), wanting to memorize it but Quraysh forbade me saying: &lsquo;do you write everything you hear while the Messenger of Allah (may Allah&rsquo;s peace and blessings be upon him) is a human being who speaks whe...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Disease of Nationalism]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[What is your opinion of one who is asked, &ldquo;Which is better in your view, your Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) or your language?&rdquo; and he answers. &ldquo;My language&rdquo;? Is he an apostate if he says that, whether in jest or out of ignorance?.Praise be to Allaah.Firstly:
We do not see how you can compare between something tangible and something intangible, so how can the person say that the language &ndash; which is an intangible thing &ndash; is better than the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) &ndash; who is a tangible thing, i.e., a person?
If we think about it we will realize that the matter may be taken in two ways, one that has to do with the questioner and one that has to do with the respondent.
With regard to the respondent: it may be that he understands &ldquo;language&rdquo; as referring to Arab nationalism &ndash; as it seems that they are Arabs and are talking about the Arabic language &ndash; and that he understands the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) as referring to Islam. In this case it is possible to compare the two things and ask questions about them.
With regard to the questioner, he wants to draw attention to his exaggerated respect for his language by comparing it to something that is venerated by the Muslims, namely the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), so he asks him if his language is greater than the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him).
Secondly:
If the first interpretation is correct, then the respondent has fallen into kufr, because Arab nationalism is a jaahili call that involves kufr, criticizes Islamic sharee&rsquo;ah and divides Muslims, joining Muslims to non-Muslims on the basis of the Arabic language. In their view an Arab kaafir is closer and dearer to them than a non-Arab Muslim. This is clearly kufr and disbelief in Islam and its laws.
The nationalist poet Fakhri al-Baroodi said:
The Arab lands are my homeland, from Damascus to Baghdad
From Najd to Yemen to Egypt to Tet...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Sister Asking About Hijab]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah. Verses that have to do with hijab:
1 &ndash; Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And tell the believing women to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts) and not to show off their adornment except only that which is apparent (like both eyes for necessity to see the way, or outer palms of hands or one eye or dress like veil, gloves, headcover, apron), and to draw their veils all over Juyoobihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms) and not to reveal their adornment except to their husbands, or their fathers, or their husband&rsquo;s fathers, or their sons, or their husband&rsquo;s sons, or their brothers or their brother&rsquo;s sons, or their sister&rsquo;s sons, or their (Muslim) women (i.e. their sisters in Islam), or the (female) slaves whom their right hands possess, or old male servants who lack vigour, or small children who have no sense of feminine sex. And let them not stamp their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment. And all of you beg Allaah to forgive you all, O believers, that you may be successful&rdquo;
[al-Noor 24:31]
2 &ndash; Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And as for women past childbearing who do not expect wedlock, it is no sin on them if they discard their (outer) clothing in such a way as not to show their adornment. But to refrain (i.e. not to discard their outer clothing) is better for them. And Allaah is All‑Hearer, All‑Knower&rdquo;
[al-Noor 24:60]
&ldquo;Women past childbearing&rdquo; are those who no longer menstruate, so they can no longer get pregnant or bear children.
We shall see below the words of Hafsah bint Sireen and the way in which she interpreted this verse.
3 &ndash; Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;O Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks (veils) all over their bodies (i.e. screen themselves completely except the eyes or one eye ...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Are You Being Grateful?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[The concept of being grateful/thankful to Allah, is to realize and acknowledge that every kind of grace and favor is granted ultimately by Allah. The Quran thus begins with bismillah (in the Name of Allah) followed by al-hamdulillah (all praise and thanks is due to Allah); significantly meaningful phrases with we begin and end every action of importance.
Allah has granted us so many favors; let alone counting up these favors, it is inconceivable even to categorize them.
Allah says: "And if you should count the favors of Allah , you could not enumerate them. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful." [Quran 16:18] Since there is no limit to the favors of Allah, a believer should unceasingly keep himself occupied with the remembrance of Allah and express his gratefulness to Him; hence the association of dhikr / remembrance of Allah with shukr/ thankfulness to Allah.
Shukr &amp; Dhikr Allah Commands us: So remember Me; I will remember you. And be grateful to Me and do not deny Me. [Quran 2:152]
Allah says: "And [remember] when your Lord proclaimed, 'If you are grateful, I will surely increase you [in favor]; but if you deny, indeed, My punishment is severe." [Quran 14:7]]]></video:description>

Rather He gave him what he needs of food, drink and clothing, and revealed to him throughout the ages a path to follow and be guided by.

One of these reports is the hadeeth of Ibn &lsquo;Umar who said that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Be different from the mushrikeen: let your beards grow and trim your moustaches.&rdquo; According to another report: &ldquo;Trim your moustaches and let your beards grow.&rdquo; There are other hadeeth which convey the same meaning, which is to leave the beard as it is and let it grow long, without shaving, plucking or cutting any part of it. Ibn Hazm reported that there was scholarly consensus that it is an obligation (fard) to trim the moustache and let the beard grow. He quoted a number of ahaadeeth as evidence, including the hadeeth of Ibn &lsquo;Umar (may Allaah be pleased with him) quoted above, and the hadeeth of Zayd ibn Arqam in which the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Whoever does not remove any of his moustache is not one of us.&rdquo; (Classed as saheeh by al-Tirmidhi). Ibn Hazm said in al-Furoo&rsquo;: &ldquo;This is the way of our colleagues [i.e., the Hanbalis].&rdquo;
Is it haraam (to shave it)? Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: &ldquo;The Qur&rsquo;aan, Sunnah and ijmaa&rsquo; (scholarly consensus) all indicate that we must differ from the kuffaar in all aspects and not imitate them, because imitating them on the outside will make us imitate them in their bad deeds and habits, and even in beliefs, which will result in befriending them in our hearts, just as loving them in our hearts will lead to imitating them on the outside. Al-Tirmidhi reported that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, &ldquo;He is not one of us who imitates people other than us. Do not imitate the Jews and Christians.&rdquo; According to another version: &ldquo;Whoever imitates a people ...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Why I Hate Religion, But Love Jesus]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[A poem I wrote to highlight the difference between Jesus and false religion. This is not an attack upon Christians, so please don't take this as offensive, it's just a means of education and let people know what Jesus was truly sent with. Jesus is a Prophet of Islam, yet a God of Christianity. In Islam God is all Powerful, But in Christianity God was overpowered and crucified on the cross, how can the Almighty God be overpowered, these are just examples for people to think about, we are not forcing you to believe, just ponder and question. The Quran is the final testament, Muhammad is the final Messenger. Islam is the final religion, so no I dont Hate Islam. One God, One God only, He does not beget nor was he begotten, He is the GREATEST. And has no partners. (Holy Quran Ch 112)
Feel free to read up more on the true Jesus here, it will answer all your questions/refutations: http://media.isnet.org/off/Islam/Jesu...

The following is a video response to bball1989's video "Why I Hate Religion, But Love Jesus || Spoken Word".
"And they say: the Beneficent hath taken unto Himself a Son. Assuredly ye utter a disastrous thing, whereby almost the heavens are torn, and the earth is split asunder and the mountains fall to ruins, that ye ascribe to the Beneficent a son, when it is not meet for (the Majesty of) the Beneficent that He should chose a son. There is none in the heavens and the earth but cometh unto the Beneficent as a slave." (Qur'an 19:88-93).
Link to original video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1IAhDG...
I point out the false reasoning in the poem, and give some good reasons (there are more) to not believe his point. This is just me discussing the video, and what is wrong about the argument, and worst statements of the poem. Be sure to share this video, and thank you very much for your time! Have a beautiful day!

      <video:description><![CDATA[Today's world has gone astray, purity is scarce. Sexualisation of society and we've lost touch to our morals. This poem aims to provide a solution. Lend me your ears. #MuslimLove The Anasheed in the Background by Ahmed Bukhatir http://www.facebook.com/talkislam www.talkislam.com.auwww.facebook.com/talkislamtwitter @talkislam1 This is my response/version of bball1989 video Sex, Marriage &amp; Fairytales Marriage today is struggling. Divorces, adultery, misconceptions, etc are plaguing not only the marriage itself but products of those marriages (my generation and the next). My hope in this poem is to highlight the most frequent and problematic issues marriages face today while also pointing to Allah as the ultimate healer, redeemer, and restorer of every marriage. Whether single or married, my intention would be that this poem would allow you to look more deeply to Allah to either better your current marriage, or prepare for your future marriage.

      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah.Allaah has made patience like a horse that never gets tired, an army that can never be defeated and a strong fortress that can never be breached. Patience and victory are twin brothers, for victory comes with patience, relief comes with distress and ease comes with hardship. Patience is of more help to the one who has it than men, as it helps without any need for equipment or numbers and its relationship to victory is like that of the head to the body.
In the Qur&rsquo;aan, Allaah has guaranteed those who are patient that He will give them reward without measure.
He tells them that He is with them by guiding and supporting them and granting them a clear victory. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Surely, Allaah is with those who are As‑Saabiroon (the patient)&rdquo;
[al-Anfaal 6:46]
Allaah has made leadership in terms of religion conditional upon patience and certain faith, as He says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And We made from among them (Children of Israel), leaders, giving guidance under Our Command, when they were patient and used to believe with certainty in Our Ayaat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.)&rdquo;
[al-Sajdah 32:34]
Allaah tells us that patience is better for those who are patient, as He says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;But if you endure patiently, verily, it is better for As‑Saabiroon (the patient)&rdquo;
[al-Nahl 16:126]
Allaah tells us if we are patient and pious, the plot of the enemy cannot do any harm, even if he is powerful, as He says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;But if you remain patient and become Al-Muttaqoon (the pious), not the least harm will their cunning do to you. Surely, Allaah surrounds all that they do&rdquo;
[Aal &lsquo;Imraan 3:120]
Allaah tells us that the patience and piety of his Prophet Yoosuf brought him to a position of power and strength, as He says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Verily, he who fears Allaah with obedience to Him (by abstaining from sins ...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[You have asked about a serious matter, but it is easy for the one whom Allaah enables to do it. Knowledge is a sign of guidance. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;If Allaah wants to do good to a person, He gives him understanding of the religion.&rdquo; This is understood to mean that whoever Allaah does not wish good for, He does not give him understanding of the religion.
Al-Bukhaari (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: &ldquo;Chapter: it is essential to know a thing first before saying or acting upon it, according to the aayah (interpretation of the meaning):
&lsquo;So know (O Muhammad) that Laa ilaaha ill-Allaah (none has the right to be worshipped but Allaah),&rsquo;
[Muhammad 47:19]
So one should start with knowledge. The scholars are the heirs of the Prophets, i.e., they inherit knowledge. Whoever gains knowledge has gained great good fortune, and whoever follows a path to seek knowledge, Allaah will make easy for him the path to Paradise. Allaah said (interpretation of the meaning):
&lsquo;It is only those who have knowledge among His slaves that fear Allaah&rsquo;
[Faatir 35:28]
And Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&lsquo;but none will understand them except those who have knowledge&rsquo;
[al-&lsquo;Ankaboot 29:43]
&lsquo;And they will say: &ldquo;Had we but listened or used our intelligence, we would not have been among the dwellers of the blazing Fire!&rdquo;&rsquo;
[al-Mulk 67:10]
And He said:
&lsquo;Are those who know equal to those who know not?&rsquo;
[al-Zumar 39:9]
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Knowledge is gained by striving for it.&rdquo;
Ibn &lsquo;Abbaas said: &lsquo;Be faithful slaves to your Lord, patient and learned.&rsquo; And it is said that the good instructor is the one who starts teaching people simple matters of knowledge before more difficult ones.&rdquo;
It was narrated that Qays ibn Katheer said: &ldquo;A man came from Madeenah to Abu&rsquo;l-Darda&rsquo; in Damascus and he s...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Can I Smoke Shisha?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah.Firstly:
There is no doubt that smoking is one of the worst poisons that many people are very keen to consume, not caring about the diseases that it causes, which lead to death in many cases. The World Health Organisation stated, in its 2008 report, that smoking tobacco kills 5.4 million people every year, i.e., approximately 14,000 people every day. Unless urgent measures are taken, tobacco will kill ten million people annually by the year 2020.
In the answer to questions no. 7432 and 10922, we have explained that it is haraam to cultivate, deal in and consume this evil plant.
Secondly:
The tobacco &ndash; as well as jiraak (something similar to tobacco) and mu&lsquo;assal (mild, flavoured tobacco) &ndash; which are smoked in the shisha are no different from regular cigarette tobacco that is rolled up in papers; in fact it contains bad ingredients that are not found in cigarettes. It says on the website of the Bahrain Anti-Smoking Society:
Components of shisha:
These components are no different from the components of cigarette tobacco and its smoke, as it contains no less than four thousand toxic substances, the most significant of which are: nicotine, carbon monoxide, tar, heavy metals, radioactive substances, carcinogens, agricultural chemicals, insecticides and many other toxic substances.
Some tobacco companies claim that all or most of the tar is removed from shisha tobacco. A number of flavouring substances, the components of which are not known, are also added to shisha tobacco, the extent of the harmful effects of which we do not know. What is said about smoking by means of the shisha or narghileh with tobacco or jiraak or mu&lsquo;assal being free of danger is not true at all. A four-year study in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has proven that mu&lsquo;assal is in fact pure tobacco with a large amount of dyes, colours and flavourings that have been mixed without any attention to health regulations, and it proved that it causes various kinds of disease and cancer.
Jiraak contains 15% ...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah. Verses that have to do with hijab:
1 &ndash; Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And tell the believing women to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts) and not to show off their adornment except only that which is apparent (like both eyes for necessity to see the way, or outer palms of hands or one eye or dress like veil, gloves, headcover, apron), and to draw their veils all over Juyoobihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms) and not to reveal their adornment except to their husbands, or their fathers, or their husband&rsquo;s fathers, or their sons, or their husband&rsquo;s sons, or their brothers or their brother&rsquo;s sons, or their sister&rsquo;s sons, or their (Muslim) women (i.e. their sisters in Islam), or the (female) slaves whom their right hands possess, or old male servants who lack vigour, or small children who have no sense of feminine sex. And let them not stamp their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment. And all of you beg Allaah to forgive you all, O believers, that you may be successful&rdquo;
[al-Noor 24:31]
2 &ndash; Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And as for women past childbearing who do not expect wedlock, it is no sin on them if they discard their (outer) clothing in such a way as not to show their adornment. But to refrain (i.e. not to discard their outer clothing) is better for them. And Allaah is All‑Hearer, All‑Knower&rdquo;
[al-Noor 24:60]
&ldquo;Women past childbearing&rdquo; are those who no longer menstruate, so they can no longer get pregnant or bear children.
We shall see below the words of Hafsah bint Sireen and the way in which she interpreted this verse.
3 &ndash; Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;O Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks (veils) all over their bodies (i.e. screen themselves completely except the eyes or one eye ...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[A Man Who Doubted]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allah.
This hadeeth was narrated by at-Tirmidhi (2442), Ahmad (1630) and Ibn Hibbaan (722) from al-Hasan ibn &lsquo;Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) who said: I memorized from the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him): &ldquo;Leave that which makes you doubt for that which does not make you doubt, for truth leads to reassurance and lies lead to uncertainty.&rdquo; Classed as saheeh by Shaykh al-Albaani (may Allah have mercy on him).
It was also narrated by an-Nasaa&rsquo;i (5614) without the additional words &ldquo;for truth leads to reassurance&hellip;&rdquo;
Al-Mannaawi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: &ldquo;Leave that which makes you doubt&rdquo; means: refrain from that which you are uncertain as to whether it is good or bad, halaal or haraam
&ldquo;for that which does not make you doubt&rdquo; that is: turn instead to that about which you are not uncertain, that which you are sure is good and halaal.
&ldquo;for truth leads to reassurance&rdquo; means: the heart is at ease with it
&ldquo;and lies lead to uncertainty&rdquo; means: they make the heart anxious and uneasy. At-Teebi said: This phrase explains the preceding words. What it means is: if you find yourself doubting (and uncertain about) something, then leave it, for the heart of the believer is at ease with the truth and is doubtful about lies and falsehood. Being doubtful about something is an indication that it may be false and wrong, so beware of it; and your feeling at ease with something is an indication that it is true, so take hold of it.
End quote from Fayd al-Qadeer 3/529
Shaykh Ibn &lsquo;Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him) said: This hadeeth is an example of concise speech, and how excellent and beneficial it is to follow it. One may feel doubtful about many things, so we say: leave that which you have doubts about for that which you have doubts about, so that you may be safe and sound. If anything makes you feel doubtful and anxious, then leave it for something that does not make yo...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Backbiting]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allah.Gheebah (backbiting, gossip) means that a person mentions the faults of his Muslim brother in his absence, which he would not like if he heard about it, when there is no need to mention them.
When I say &ldquo;mentions the faults of his brother&rdquo;, this excludes cases when the other person says something to praise or commend him.
When I say &ldquo;Muslim brother&rdquo;, this excludes the kafir (non-Muslim), for there is no gheebah in the case of a kafir.
When I say, &ldquo;in his absence&rdquo;, this excludes things said in his presence, which is not called gheebah according to the more correct of the two scholarly opinions.
When I say, &ldquo;which he would dislike if he heard about it&rdquo;, this excludes things which he would not mind.
When I say, &ldquo;when there is no need to mention them&rdquo;, this excludes cases when there is a shar&rsquo;i (legal religious) reason for doing that, such as warning against an innovator to make people aware of his bid&rsquo;ah (innovation).
It is essential to pay attention to the following in such cases:
1. Sincerity towards Allah and seeking His pleasure.
2. Paying attention to the interests being served by such things.
3. What is said should be limited to the shortcomings in question and should not go further, to matters in which there is no benefit.
The scholars agreed that it is haram (impermissible) to talk behind a person&rsquo;s back for no legitimate purpose. Most of them stated that this is a major sin and that it varies in degree, some kinds being worse than others. The one who backbites about a scholar is not like one who backbites about an ignorant person. Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;&hellip; neither backbite one another. Would one of you like to eat the flesh of his dead brother? You would hate it (so hate backbiting). And fear Allah. Verily, Allah is the One Who forgives and accepts repentance, Most Merciful&rdquo; [49:12]
In Saheeh Muslim it is narrated from al-&lsquo;Ala ibn &lsquo;Abd al-Rahman ...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[What's God's Name?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allah,
The people of Sunnah and Jama&rsquo;ah (adherents to the prophetic way) believe that Allah is exalted above His creation because of the evidence of the Quran, Sunnah (prophetic traditions), consensus of the scholars, common sense and man&rsquo;s innate instinct (fitrah).
(1) The Quran describes the "exaltedness" or "highness" of Allah in different ways, as His being high and above, and by describing how things come down from Him, and go up to Him, and by stating that He is above heaven. For example (interpretations of the meaning):
(Highness):"&hellip; and He is the Most High, the Most Great." [2:255]
"Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High." [87:1]
(Above):"And He is the Irresistible, above His slaves &hellip;" [6:18]
"They fear their Lord above them, and they do what they are commanded." [16:50]
(Things coming down from Him):
"He arranges (every) affair from the heavens to the earth &hellip; " [32:5]
"Verily We: it is We Who have sent down the Dhikr (i.e., the Quran) &hellip;" [15:9]
(Things going up to Him):
"&hellip; To Him ascend (all) the goodly words, and the righteous deeds exalt it &hellip;" [35:10]
"The angels and the Rooh (Jibreel) ascend to Him &hellip;" [70:4]
(Allah is above heaven):
"Do you feel secure that He, Who is over the heaven, will not cause the earth to sink with you &hellip;?" [67:16]
(2) The Sunnah: Many reports were narrated "mutawatir" (i.e. with a large number of narrators at every stage of the isnad/chain, such that it is impossible for them all to have agreed on a lie) from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), describing his words and deeds and things of which he approved. For example, he used to say "Subhana Rabbi al-A&rsquo;la (Glory be to my Lord Most High)" in sujood (prostration), and in some ahadeeth (reports) he is reported to have said "By Allah Who is above the Throne."
Among his deeds is the gesture of pointing up with his finger, when addressing the people in the greatest gathering, on the Day of &lsquo;Arafah during his Far...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Can Islam be Radical?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah.
Moderation in religion means that one does not exaggerate and go beyond the limit set by Allaah, and that one does not neglect it and fall short of the limit set by Allaah.
Moderation in religion means following the example of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). Exaggeration means trying to do more than he did, and negligence means not reaching that level.
For example, a man says, &ldquo;I want to spend all night in prayer (qiyaam al-layl), and never sleep all my life, because prayer is one of the best acts of worship, so I want to spend the entire night in prayer.&rdquo; We say, this is going to extremes in the religion of Allaah, and this is not right. Something like this happened at the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), when a group of men got together and one of them said, &ldquo;I will pray at night and never sleep.&rdquo; Another said, &ldquo;I will fast and never break my fast.&rdquo; The third one said, &ldquo;I will never marry women.&rdquo; News of that reached the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and he said, &ldquo;What is wrong with people who say such and such? I fast and I break my fast. I sleep, and I marry women. Whoever overlooks my Sunnah does not belong to me.&rdquo; These people had gone to extremes in religion, and so the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) disowned them, because they overlooked his Sunnah which includes fasting and not fasting, praying at night and sleeping, and marrying women.
The one who is falling short is one who says, &ldquo;I do not need to do voluntary (naafil) actions, so I will not do them. I will only do the fard actions. He may even be falling short in the fard actions, so this person is lacking.
The moderate person is one who follows the path of the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and his rightly-guided successors (al-Khulafaa&rsquo; al-Raashidoon).
Another example: three men are faced with an immoral man. One of them says, &ldqu...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Dawah and Dajjal]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah. Meaning of the word Maseeh (Messiah)
There are over fifty scholarly comments on the meaning of the word Maseeh (Messiah). They said that this word is applied both to the Truthful One [True Messiah, i.e., &lsquo;Eesa (Jesus)] and to the misleading liar [the &ldquo;antichrist&rdquo; or Dajjaal]. The Messiah is the Truthful One, &lsquo;Eesa ibn Maryam (Jesus the son of Mary), the Messiah of guidance, who healed those who were born blind and lepers, and brought the dead to life by Allaah&rsquo;s Leave.
The false messiah (al-maseeh al-dajjaal) is the liar who leads people astray, the messiah of misguidance who will tempt people by means of the signs that he is given, such as bringing down rain, reviving the earth to bring forth vegetation, and other &ldquo;miracles.&rdquo;
So Allaah has created two messiahs, who are opposites of one another.
The scholars said that the reason why the Dajjaal is called maseeh (a &ldquo;messiah&rdquo;) is because one of his eyes is mamsooh (lit. &ldquo;wiped&rdquo;; smooth or abraded, i.e., he will be blind or defective in one eye). Or it was said that it is because he will survey or travel throughout the earth (yamsah) in forty days&hellip; The former view is more correct, because of what was said in the hadeeth narrated by Muslim (no. 5221) from Anas ibn Maalik, who said: &ldquo;The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &lsquo;The Dajjaal will be blind (mamsooh) in one eye, and between his eyes will be written &lsquo;kaafir&rsquo;&hellip;&rsquo;&rdquo;.
Meaning of the word Dajjaal
The word Dajjaal is taken from the expression &ldquo;Dajjala al-ba&rsquo;eer (he smeared the camel)&rdquo;, referring to when they covered it with tar.
The root dajala means to mix. The word dajala is used to mean deliberately confusing matters and being vague and ambiguous, The Dajjaal is the one who speaks in vagaries, who tells many lies and deceives many people.
The word &ldquo;Dajjaal&rdquo; became a title given to the lying, one-eyed, false...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[What You Need to Succeed]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah.The name of failure is enough to put us off it and strive for success, regardless of the material gains that a man may attain as the result of his success, because failure is a word that implies shortcomings and loss, and success is a word that implies perfection and praise.
Failure and success are two sides of the same coin, although they may seem to contradict one another at first glance. But in fact they are interconnected if you think about it, based on experience and real life.
Success is the path in this life which Allaah wants to be the aim of every believer. He has created the universe and subjugated it to meet this aim. He, may He be glorified, has enjoined man to believe, and has asked him to adhere to full submission to Him, as he cannot be anything but a slave to Allaah, and He has made that the purpose of creation, as He says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And I (Allaah) created not the jinn and mankind except that they should worship Me (Alone)&rdquo;
[al-Dhaariyaat 51:56]
And He has promised that the one who dies following this path will be the successful one, and others will be losers:
&ldquo;And whoever is removed away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise, he indeed is successful&rdquo;
[Aal &lsquo;Imraan 3:185]
So success is the story of life, the purpose for which Allaah has created this universe. He only sent the Messengers and revealed the Books to call people to attain true success before Allaah. He has decreed certain matters in order to motivate us to attain success in this world and in the Hereafter, as follows:
- He decreed eternal and everlasting delight for those who pass the test of faith and full submission, and adhere to that path and die following it:
&ldquo;Then as for him who will be given his Record in his right hand will say: &lsquo;Here! read my Record!
20. &lsquo;Surely, I did believe that I shall meet my Account!&rsquo;
21. So he shall be in a life, well‑pleasing.
22. In a lofty Paradise,
23. The fruits in bunches whereof will be low and n...]]></video:description>

Tawheed in Arabic means attributing Oneness to Allaah and describing Him as being One and Unique, with no partner or peer in His Essence and Attributes.
The Arabs say waahid, ahad and waheed, all meaning one. Allaah is Waahid, meaning that He has no rivals or peers in any way. So Tawheed means knowing Allaah is One, with none like unto Him. Whoever does not acknowledge Allaah in these terms and does not describe Him as being One with no partner or associate does not believe in Tawheed.
With regard to the shar&rsquo;i definition of Tawheed, it means believing in Allaah alone as God and Lord and attributing to Him alone all the attributes of Lordship and divinity.
It may be defined as follows: Believing that Allaah is One with no partner or associate in His Lordship (ruboobiyyah), divinity (uloohiyyah) or names and attributes (al-asma&rsquo; wa&rsquo;l-sifaat).
This word (Tawheed) and its derivatives are used with this meaning in the Qur&rsquo;aan and Sunnah. For example:
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Say (O Muhammad): He is Allaah, (the) One [Ahad].
2. Allaah‑us‑Samad [Allaah &mdash; the Self‑Sufficient Master, Whom all creatures need, (He neither eats nor drinks)].
3. He begets not, nor was He begotten.
4. And there is none co‑equal or comparable unto Him&rdquo;
[al-Ikhlaas 112:1-3]
&ldquo;And your Ilaah (God) is One Ilaah [ilaahun waahidun] (God &mdash; Allaah), Laa Ilaaha illa Huwa (there is none who has the right to be worshipped but He), the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful&rdquo;
[al-Baqarah 2:163]
&ldquo;Surely, disbelievers are those who said: &lsquo;Allaah is the third of the three (in a Trinity).&rsquo; But there is no Ilaah (god) (none who has the right to be worshipped) but One Ilaah [ilaahun waahidun] (God &mdash;Allaah). And if they cease not from what they say, verily, a painful torment will befall on the disbelievers among them&rdquo;

      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah.
Moderation in religion means that one does not exaggerate and go beyond the limit set by Allaah, and that one does not neglect it and fall short of the limit set by Allaah.
Moderation in religion means following the example of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). Exaggeration means trying to do more than he did, and negligence means not reaching that level.
For example, a man says, &ldquo;I want to spend all night in prayer (qiyaam al-layl), and never sleep all my life, because prayer is one of the best acts of worship, so I want to spend the entire night in prayer.&rdquo; We say, this is going to extremes in the religion of Allaah, and this is not right. Something like this happened at the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), when a group of men got together and one of them said, &ldquo;I will pray at night and never sleep.&rdquo; Another said, &ldquo;I will fast and never break my fast.&rdquo; The third one said, &ldquo;I will never marry women.&rdquo; News of that reached the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and he said, &ldquo;What is wrong with people who say such and such? I fast and I break my fast. I sleep, and I marry women. Whoever overlooks my Sunnah does not belong to me.&rdquo; These people had gone to extremes in religion, and so the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) disowned them, because they overlooked his Sunnah which includes fasting and not fasting, praying at night and sleeping, and marrying women.
The one who is falling short is one who says, &ldquo;I do not need to do voluntary (naafil) actions, so I will not do them. I will only do the fard actions. He may even be falling short in the fard actions, so this person is lacking.
The moderate person is one who follows the path of the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and his rightly-guided successors (al-Khulafaa&rsquo; al-Raashidoon).
Another example: three men are faced with an immoral man. One of them says, &ldqu...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah.The name of failure is enough to put us off it and strive for success, regardless of the material gains that a man may attain as the result of his success, because failure is a word that implies shortcomings and loss, and success is a word that implies perfection and praise.
Failure and success are two sides of the same coin, although they may seem to contradict one another at first glance. But in fact they are interconnected if you think about it, based on experience and real life.
Success is the path in this life which Allaah wants to be the aim of every believer. He has created the universe and subjugated it to meet this aim. He, may He be glorified, has enjoined man to believe, and has asked him to adhere to full submission to Him, as he cannot be anything but a slave to Allaah, and He has made that the purpose of creation, as He says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And I (Allaah) created not the jinn and mankind except that they should worship Me (Alone)&rdquo;
[al-Dhaariyaat 51:56]
And He has promised that the one who dies following this path will be the successful one, and others will be losers:
&ldquo;And whoever is removed away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise, he indeed is successful&rdquo;
[Aal &lsquo;Imraan 3:185]
So success is the story of life, the purpose for which Allaah has created this universe. He only sent the Messengers and revealed the Books to call people to attain true success before Allaah. He has decreed certain matters in order to motivate us to attain success in this world and in the Hereafter, as follows:
- He decreed eternal and everlasting delight for those who pass the test of faith and full submission, and adhere to that path and die following it:
&ldquo;Then as for him who will be given his Record in his right hand will say: &lsquo;Here! read my Record!
20. &lsquo;Surely, I did believe that I shall meet my Account!&rsquo;
21. So he shall be in a life, well‑pleasing.
22. In a lofty Paradise,
23. The fruits in bunches whereof will be low and n...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Shaykh Navaid Aziz has been described as being a gem in and of himself. One of the youngest instructors to join AlMaghrib, Shaykh Navaid has a way of making each student feel special, as though he is talking to them one-on-one. Students have described his demeanour and manner of speaking to exude sincerity and care. His personal stories connect directly with the youth and are his strength in carrying the message across.
Hailing from Montreal, Quebec Sh Navaid is a man of many cultures and flavours. He completed an associate's degree in Commerce and Social Sciences before heading to the illustrious Islamic University of Madinah. Sh. Navaid went on to complete a diploma in the Arabic language as well as a bachelors in Shari'ah (Islamic Law), with a specialization in Fiqh and Usul Al-Fiqh.
Upon returning to North America Sh. Navaid joined the speakers circuit and has travelled the world lecturing and teaching. He is the founder ofhttp://www.myspiritualfix.com&nbsp;a modern day approach to spirituality. He serves the Muslim community as a family and youth counselor. As a strong advocator for a bright Muslim future he is the Islamic editor for Recess Kids magazine in North America and Little Explorers magazine in the United Kingdom. If Sh. Navaid is not found lecturing he will more than likely be found updating his Facebook status, reading a book in his personal library, or taking some of the brothers to school on the basketball court.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Valentine's Day]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah.Firstly:
Valentine&rsquo;s Day is a jaahili Roman festival, which continued to be celebrated until after the Romans became Christian. This festival became connected with the saint known as Valentine who was sentenced to death on 14 February 270 CE. The kuffaar still celebrate this festival, during which immorality and evil are practised widely.
Secondly:
It is not permissible for a Muslim to celebrate any of the festivals of the kuffaar, because festivals come under the heading of shar&rsquo;i issues which are to be based on the sound texts.
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: Festivals are part of sharee&rsquo;ah, clear way and rituals of which Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;To each among you, We have prescribed a law and a clear way&rdquo;
[al-Maa&rsquo;idah 5:48]
&ldquo;For every nation We have ordained religious ceremonies which they must follow&rdquo;
[al-Hajj 22:67]
-- such as the qiblah (direction faced in prayer), prayer and fasting. There is no difference between their participating in the festival and their participating in all other rituals. Joining in fully with the festival is joining in with kufr, and joining in with some of its minor issues is joining in with some of the branches of kufr. Indeed, festivals are one of the most unique features that distinguish various religions and among their most prominent symbols, so joining in with them is joining in with the most characteristic and prominent symbols of kufr. No doubt joining in with this may lead to complete kufr.
Partially joining in, at the very least, is disobedience and sin. This was indicated by the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) when he said: &ldquo;Every people has its festival and this is our festival.&rdquo; This is worse than joining them in wearing the zinaar (a garment that was worn only by ahl al-dhimmah) and other characteristics of theirs, for those characteristics are man-made and are not part of their religion, rather the pur...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Key Message: Understanding the Essence of Worship in Islam
The Devil's Cloak sheds light on the fundamental principles of Islam, emphasizing the importance of worshiping Allah alone and following the rules set by Him. The guest masterfully highlights the twin pillars of religion, emphasizing the need to avoid Shirk (associating partners with Allah) and ensuring that worship is in accordance with Allah's Legislation of Worship to maintain the purity of faith.

"Your worship must adhere to these two conditions, as violating them can lead to damaging your faith," states the guest, urging viewers to understand that true worship lies in following the Prophet's footsteps and not introducing innovations that can deviate from the core teachings of Islam.

Expert Insights: Challenging Misguided Perceptions
Underlying the discourse is the need to dispel misconceptions surrounding bid'ah (innovation), as the guest clarifies that every bid'ah is misguided, echoing the Prophet's stance. Through engaging examples and challenges to conventional beliefs, the guest aims to steer the audience towards a deeper understanding of worship, rooted in adherence to the Prophet's practices without adding unauthorized innovations.


    Adherence to Core Principles: Worship in Islam should center on the exclusive worship of Allah and following His legislations.
    Role of Innovation: The discussion challenges norms by highlighting the necessity to avoid bid'ah and strictly adhere to Prophet Muhammad's teachings.]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA["So will they not repent to Allah and seek His forgiveness? And Allah is Forgiving and Merciful." {Surah Al Maaidah: 74} As human beings we are prone to erring and sinning, so it is vital that we turn to Allah in repentance for our own salvation with humility, cognisant of our sins and being sincere in our repentance. In this lecture the Sheikh reminds us of the importance and benefits of turning to Allah in repentance.

      <video:title><![CDATA[Innovations in Religion]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[This question involves two issues, bid&rsquo;ah (innovation) and shirk (polytheism, association of others with Allaah).
A. Bid&rsquo;ah.
This issue may be divided into three topics:
1. Definition of bid&rsquo;ah 2. Categories of bid&rsquo;ah 3. Rulings on one who commits bid&rsquo;ah &ndash; does that make him a kaafir or not?
1. Definition of bid&rsquo;ah.
Shaykh Muhammad ibn &lsquo;Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: &ldquo;According to sharee&rsquo;ah, the definition is &lsquo;Worshipping Allaah in ways that Allaah has not prescribed.&rsquo; If you wish you may say, &lsquo;Worshipping Allaah in ways that are not those of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) or his rightly guided successors (al-khulafaa&rsquo; al-raashidoon).&rsquo;&rdquo;
The first definition is taken from the aayah (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Or have they partners with Allaah (false gods) who have instituted for them a religion which Allaah has not ordained?&rdquo; [al-Shooraa 42:21]
The second definition is taken from the hadeeth of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), who said:
&ldquo;I urge you to adhere to my way (Sunnah) and the way of the rightly-guided successors (al-khulafa&rsquo; al-raashidoon) who come after me. Hold fast to it and bite onto it with your eyeteeth [i.e., cling firmly to it], and beware of newly-invented matters.&rdquo;
So everyone who worships Allaah in a manner that Allaah has not prescribed or in a manner that is not in accordance with the way of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) or his rightly-guided successors (al-khulafa&rsquo; al-raashidoon), is an innovator, whether that innovated worship has to do with the names and attributes of Allaah, or to do with His rulings and laws.
With regard to ordinary matters of habit and custom, these are not called bid&rsquo;ah (innovation) in Islam, even though they may be described as such in linguistic terms. But they are not innovations in the religious sense, and these are not the things ...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Islam means submission to the Creator alone. Islam is the belief that there is only One God, whose proper name is Allah, which means the God.
Islam is the same message given to all the prophets, from Adam, Noah, Moses, Abraham, Jesus, and finally to the Prophet Muhammad, the last messenger (peace and blessings be upon them). They all brought the same message: worship only God, and stop worshipping human beings and their ideas.
Allah is the name of God in Arabic, Arab Christians use the word Allah.
Become a Muslim (Any Peaceful person who submits to the Creator alone) Now.
If you believe there is only One God who should be worshiped, and no one/nothing else has that right but Him, and you believe Muhammad, peace be upon him, was a messenger who brought the same message as all the prophets before him, then you are basically a Muslim.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[We are a Moderate Nation]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah.
Moderation in religion means that one does not exaggerate and go beyond the limit set by Allaah, and that one does not neglect it and fall short of the limit set by Allaah.
Moderation in religion means following the example of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). Exaggeration means trying to do more than he did, and negligence means not reaching that level.
For example, a man says, &ldquo;I want to spend all night in prayer (qiyaam al-layl), and never sleep all my life, because prayer is one of the best acts of worship, so I want to spend the entire night in prayer.&rdquo; We say, this is going to extremes in the religion of Allaah, and this is not right. Something like this happened at the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), when a group of men got together and one of them said, &ldquo;I will pray at night and never sleep.&rdquo; Another said, &ldquo;I will fast and never break my fast.&rdquo; The third one said, &ldquo;I will never marry women.&rdquo; News of that reached the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and he said, &ldquo;What is wrong with people who say such and such? I fast and I break my fast. I sleep, and I marry women. Whoever overlooks my Sunnah does not belong to me.&rdquo; These people had gone to extremes in religion, and so the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) disowned them, because they overlooked his Sunnah which includes fasting and not fasting, praying at night and sleeping, and marrying women.
The one who is falling short is one who says, &ldquo;I do not need to do voluntary (naafil) actions, so I will not do them. I will only do the fard actions. He may even be falling short in the fard actions, so this person is lacking.
The moderate person is one who follows the path of the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and his rightly-guided successors (al-Khulafaa&rsquo; al-Raashidoon).
Another example: three men are faced with an immoral man. One of them says, &ldqu...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Islam, Jihad, and Sharia]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah. Firstly:
Jihaad is of various kinds, some of which are obligatory upon everyone who is accountable, and some are obligatory upon the community as a whole &ndash; if some people undertake them then the rest are relieved of the obligation. And some kinds of jihad are mustahabb.
Jihad al-nafs (jihad against one&rsquo;s self) and jihad al-Shaytaan (jihad against the Shaytaan) are obligatory upon everyone who is accountable. Jihad against the munaafiqeen (hypocrites), kaafirs (disbelievers) and leaders of oppression and innovation is obligatory upon the community as a whole. Physical jihad (i.e. fighting) against the kaafirs may become an individual obligation upon everyone who is able to do it in certain circumstances, which will be described below.
Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
Once this is understood, then jihad is of four kinds: Jihad al-nafs (jihad against one&rsquo;s self), jihad al-Shaytaan (jihad against the Shaytaan), jihad against the kaafirs and jihad against the hypocrites.
Jihad al-nafs (jihad against one&rsquo;s self) is of four kinds:
1 &ndash; Striving to learn the teachings of Islam without which one cannot attain success and happiness in this world or in the Hereafter; if this is missing then one is doomed to misery in this world and in the Hereafter.
2 &ndash; Striving to make oneself act in accordance with what one has learned. Simply knowing without acting, even though it may not cause any harm, is not going to bring any benefit.
3 &ndash; Striving to call others to Islam, teaching those who do not know about it. Otherwise one will be one of those who conceal that which Allaah has revealed of guidance and teaching, and it will not benefit him or save him from the punishment of Allaah.
4 &ndash; Striving to bear patiently the difficulties involved in calling people to Allaah and the insults of people; bearing all that for the sake of Allaah.
If a person achieves all these four levels, then he will be one of the rabbaaniyyeen (learned men of rel...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Questions About Paradise]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah. When the people of Paradise enter Paradise, they will abide therein forever and never leave it. Similarly the people of Hell will abide therein forever and never leave it.
It says in Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa&rsquo;imah:
With regard to Paradise, it is the abode of reward on the Day of Resurrection for those who believed and did righteous deeds. In it there are whatever delights people could desire. In it there is what no eye has seen, no ear has heard, nor has it ever entered the mind of man. Those who enter it will enjoy real pleasures in both a physical and a spiritual sense, and they will live there forever. It will never cease to exist and they will never leave, and their joy will never come to an end, and they will have nothing to disturb their joy. This is according to the definitive texts and the consensus of the scholars and believers. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;The description of the Paradise which the Muttaqoon (the pious) have been promised: Underneath it rivers flow, its provision is eternal and so is its shade; this is the end (final destination) of the Muttaqoon (the pious), and the end (final destination) of the disbelievers is Fire
[al-Ra&rsquo;d 13:35]
&ldquo;Truly, the Muttaqoon (the pious) will be amidst Gardens and water-springs (Paradise).
(It will be said to them): &lsquo;Enter therein (Paradise), in peace and security.&rsquo;
And We shall remove from their breasts any deep feeling of bitterness (that they may have). (So they will be like) brothers facing each other on thrones.
No sense of fatigue shall touch them, nor shall they (ever) be asked to leave it&rdquo;[al-Hijr 15:45-47]
&ldquo;This is a Reminder. And verily, for the Muttaqoon (the pious) is a good final return (Paradise), &mdash;
&lsquo;Adn (Eden) Paradise (everlasting Gardens), whose doors will be opened for them.
Therein they will recline; therein they will call for fruits in abundance and drinks;
And beside them will be Qaasiraat-at-Tarf [chaste females (wives) restraining their ...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Proving Islam with Evidence]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah. Praise be to Allaah Who has made good dear to you; we ask Him to increase you in guidance and faith, and to guide your parents to practise Islam and adhere to its rulings.
With regard to the Quraan and the proof that it is the word of Allaah, these are specious arguments which were put forward out of stubbornness and arrogance by the first kaafirs to whom the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) was sent. Allaah refuted what they said in many ways, proving their words to be false and pointing out what was wrong with it. For example:
1- This Quraan is challenge from Allaah to mankind and the jinn to produce anything like it, but they were unable to. Then He challenged them to produce only ten soorahs like it, and they were unable to. Then He challenged them to produce something like the shortest soorah in the Quraan, and they could not do it, even though those who were being challenged were the most eloquent and well-spoken of mankind, and the Quraan was revealed in their language. Yet despite that they stated that they were completely incapable of doing that. This challenge has remained down throughout history, but not one person has been able to produce anything like it. If this were the word of a human being, some people would have been able to produce something like it or close to it. There is a great deal of evidence for this challenge in the Quraan, for example, the aayah (interpretation of the meaning):
Say: If the mankind and the jinn were together to produce the like of this Quraan, they could not produce the like thereof, even if they helped one another ;
[al-Israa 17:88]
Allaah says, challenging them to produce just ten soorahs:
Or they say, He (Prophet Muhammad) forged it (the Quraan). Say: Bring you then ten forged Soorah (chapters) like unto it, and call whomsoever you can, other than Allaah (to your help), if you speak the truth!
[Hood 11:13 interpretation of the meaning]
Allaah says, challenging them to produce just one soorah:
And if you (Arab pagans, Jews, a...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Backbiting and Cannibalism]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allah.Gheebah (backbiting, gossip) means that a person mentions the faults of his Muslim brother in his absence, which he would not like if he heard about it, when there is no need to mention them.
When I say &ldquo;mentions the faults of his brother&rdquo;, this excludes cases when the other person says something to praise or commend him.
When I say &ldquo;Muslim brother&rdquo;, this excludes the kafir (non-Muslim), for there is no gheebah in the case of a kafir.
When I say, &ldquo;in his absence&rdquo;, this excludes things said in his presence, which is not called gheebah according to the more correct of the two scholarly opinions.
When I say, &ldquo;which he would dislike if he heard about it&rdquo;, this excludes things which he would not mind.
When I say, &ldquo;when there is no need to mention them&rdquo;, this excludes cases when there is a shar&rsquo;i (legal religious) reason for doing that, such as warning against an innovator to make people aware of his bid&rsquo;ah (innovation).
It is essential to pay attention to the following in such cases:
1. Sincerity towards Allah and seeking His pleasure.
2. Paying attention to the interests being served by such things.
3. What is said should be limited to the shortcomings in question and should not go further, to matters in which there is no benefit.
The scholars agreed that it is haram (impermissible) to talk behind a person&rsquo;s back for no legitimate purpose. Most of them stated that this is a major sin and that it varies in degree, some kinds being worse than others. The one who backbites about a scholar is not like one who backbites about an ignorant person. Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;&hellip; neither backbite one another. Would one of you like to eat the flesh of his dead brother? You would hate it (so hate backbiting). And fear Allah. Verily, Allah is the One Who forgives and accepts repentance, Most Merciful&rdquo; [49:12]

      <video:title><![CDATA[Heart Break]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah.Firstly:
Calamities and disasters are a test, and they are a sign of Allaah&rsquo;s love for a person, because they are like medicine: even though it is bitter, despite its bitterness you give it to the one whom you love &ndash; and for Allaah is the highest description. In the saheeh hadeeth it says: &ldquo;The greatest reward comes with the greatest trial. When Allaah loves a people He tests them. Whoever accepts that wins His pleasure but whoever is discontent with that earns His wrath.&rdquo; Narrated by al-Tirmidhi (2396) and Ibn Maajah (4031); classed as hasan by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Tirmidhi.
Calamities are good for the believer in the sense that reward is stored up for him the Hereafter thereby; how can it be otherwise when he is raised in status thereby and his bad deeds are expiated? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;When Allaah wills good for His slave, He hastens the punishment for him in this world, and when Allaah wills ill for His slave, he withholds the punishment for his sins from him until he comes with all his sins on the Day of Resurrection.&rdquo; Narrated by al-Tirmidhi (2396); classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Tirmidhi.
Al-Hasan al-Basri (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: &ldquo;Do not resent the calamities that come and the disasters that occur, for perhaps in something that you dislike will be your salvation, and perhaps in something that you prefer will be your doom.&rdquo;
Al-Fadl ibn Sahl said: &ldquo;There is a blessing in calamity that the wise man should not ignore, for it erases sins, gives one the opportunity to attain the reward for patience, dispels negligence, reminds one of blessings at the time of health, calls one to repent and encourages one to give charity.
Through calamity the believer seeks reward, and there is no way to attain it but patience, and there is no way to be patient except with resolute faith and strong will.
Remember the words of the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Pure Monotheism of Islam vs Pagan Beliefs and Superstitions]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah.Firstly:
These myths &ndash; and many others &ndash; come under the heading of superstition that is forbidden in Islam. There is no limit to such myths among the people. Some regard seeing certain things as a bad omen &ndash; such as seeing an owl or a black cat; some regard hearing certain things as a bad omen &ndash; such as hearing the sound of an owl or a crow. They even regard verses in the Book of Allaah as omens, if it is seen in the Mus-haf or heard from one who is reading! &ndash; such as a verse which speaks of warning or punishment. Some of them regard numbers as unlucky, such as 13; or they regard certain times as unlucky times, such as Wednesdays, or the month of Shawwaal for those who want to get married. Some regard certain places as unlucky, such as a place in which a crime occurred, or they regard certain types of people as a bad omen, such as the lame or the blind, or the poor or needy.
It was narrated from Anas ibn Maalik (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Prophet SAWS (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;There is no &lsquo;adwa (transmission of infectious disease without the permission of Allaah) and no tiyarah (superstitious belief in bird omens), but I like optimism.&rdquo; They said, &ldquo;What is optimism?&rdquo; He said, &ldquo;A good word.&rdquo; Narrated by al-Bukhaari (5776) and Muslim (2224).
It was narrated that &lsquo;Abd-Allaah ibn Mas&rsquo;ood said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Tiyarah (superstitious belief in omens) is shirk.&rdquo; Narrated by al-Tirmidhi (1614), Abu Dawood (3910), Ibn Majaah (3538); classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh Abi Dawood.
Shaykh Muhammad ibn Saalih al-&lsquo;Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
The word tiyarah is derived from the word tatayyur, which refers to superstition about something that is seen or heard; or it was said that it refers to superstition about anything ,whether it is something that is seen or heard, or a time o...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Introducing Islam to Non-Muslims]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah. Yes, there are three degrees of Islam, which are: Islam, eemaan and ihsaan. Each of them has a meaning and certain pillars or essential parts.
1 &ndash; Islam, which in Arabic means submission. In sharee&rsquo;ah terminology its meaning varies according to usage, and it may mean one of two things:
(i) When the word is used on its own and is not accompanied by the word eemaan (faith, belief), it refers to the religion as a whole, including both major and minor issues of belief, words and deeds, as in the verses where Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Truly, the religion with Allaah is Islam&rdquo;
[Aal &lsquo;Imraan 3:19]
&ldquo;and have chosen for you Islam as your religion&rdquo;
[al-Maa&rsquo;idah 5:3]
&ldquo;And whoever seeks a religion other than Islam, it will never be accepted of him&rdquo;
[Aal &lsquo;Imraan 3:85]
hence some of the scholars defined it as meaning: Submitting to Allaah by affirming that He is One (Tawheed) and submitting to Him by obeying Him and disavowing shirk and its people.
(ii) When it is used in conjunction with the word eemaan (faith, belief), in which case it refers to outward deeds and words, as in the verses where Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;The bedouins say: &lsquo;We believe.&rsquo; Say: &lsquo;You believe not but you only say, &ldquo;We have surrendered (in Islam),&rdquo;for Faith has not yet entered your hearts&rsquo;&hellip;&rdquo;
[al-Hujuraat 49:14]
In Saheeh al-Bukhaari (27) and Saheeh Muslim (150) it is narrated from Sa&rsquo;d ibn Abi Waqqaas that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) distributed (Zakaah) amongst (a group of) people while Sa&rsquo;d was sitting there. Sa&rsquo;d said: But the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) left a man who I thought the best of them all, and did not give him anything. I said, &ldquo;O Messenger of Allaah, why did you leave out So and so? By Allaah I regard him as a faithful believer.&rdquo; The Messe...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Top 8 Reasons Why Jesus is Not God]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah.We have previously explained that the Gospel in which we believe, and no one's Islam is valid unless he believes in it, is not the gospels that are in the hands of the Christians nowadays. Rather the Gospel in which we believe is that which was brought by &lsquo;Eesa (Jesus &ndash; peace be upon him) from Allaah. As for that which is in the hands of the Christians today, it is something else, and they themselves do not claim that Jesus is the one who brought it or wrote it. See question no. 47516.
As that is the case, what the Christians claim about the Gospels stating that Jesus is the son of God and that God is his father &ndash;exalted be Allaah above having a son or a wife &ndash; does not count as any kind of proof against us, because we believe that that is something that was fabricated by human beings, and it is not part of the religion of Jesus (peace be upon him) or the religion of any other Messenger.
We believe that the Gospels that are in people&rsquo;s hands today, in which the Christians believe, have been tampered with and changed, and are still being tampered with from time to time, so that there is nothing left in the form in which the Gospel was revealed from Allaah. Here we would point out that the Gospel which speaks most of the belief in the trinity and the divinity of the Messiah (peace be upon him), so that it has become a reference-point for the Christians in their arguments in support of this falsehood, is the Gospel of John. This Gospel is subject to doubts about its authorship even among some Christian scholars themselves, as is not the case with the other Gospels in which they believe. This is an ancient doubt which goes back to the second century CE according to their own history.
Professor Stadlin says: The entire Gospel of John was written by one of the students of the Alexandrian school. One sect, in the second century, rejected this Gospel and everything that was attributed to John.
In the Encyclopaedia Britannica it says:
As for the gospel of John, it ...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Is Christmas or Santa in the Bible?]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah.There is no doubt that what is mentioned of celebrations is haraam, because it is an imitation of the kuffaar. It is well known that the Muslims do not have any festival apart from Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, and the weekly &ldquo;Eid&rdquo; which is Friday (Yawm al-Jumu&lsquo;ah). Celebrating any other festival is not allowed and is either of two things: either it is an innovation (bid&lsquo;ah), if it is celebrated as a means of drawing close to Allah, such as celebrating the Prophet&rsquo;s Birthday (Mawlid); or it is an imitation of the kuffaar, if it is celebrated as a tradition and not as an act of worship, because introducing innovated festivals is the action of the people of the Book who we are commanded to differ from. So how about if it is a celebration of one of their actual festivals?
Decorating the house with balloons at this time is obviously joining in with the kuffaar and celebrating their festival.
What the Muslim is required to do is not to single out these days for any kind of celebration, decorating or adornment, or special foods, otherwise he will be joining the kuffaar in their festivals, which is something that is undoubtedly haraam.
Shaykh Ibn &lsquo;Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Similarly it is forbidden for the Muslims to imitate the kuffaar by holding parties on these occasions, or exchanging gifts, or distributing sweets or other foods, or taking time off work and so on, because the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: &ldquo;Whoever imitates a people is one of them.&rdquo; Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah said in his book Iqtida&rsquo; al-Siraat al-Mustaqeem Mukhaalifat Ashaab al-Jaheem: Imitating them on some of their festivals implies that one is happy with the falsehood they are following, and that could make them (the non-Muslims) take this opportunity to mislead those who are weak in faith. End quote.
Those who do any of these things are sinning, whether they do it to go along with them, or to be friendly towards them, o...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Keeping Marriage Together as a Muslim Family in Islam]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Praise be to Allaah.
Islam has enjoined upon the husband duties towards his wife, and vice versa, and among these duties are some which are shared by both husband and wife.
We will mention &ndash; by the help of Allaah &ndash; some of the texts of the Qur&rsquo;aan and Sunnah which have to do with the duties of the spouses towards one another, quoting also from the commentaries and views of the scholars.
Firstly:
The rights of the wife which are hers alone:
The wife has financial rights over her husband, which are the mahr (dowry), spending and accommodation.
And she has non-financial rights, such as fair division between co-wives, being treated in a decent and reasonable manner, and not being treated in a harmful way by her husband.
1. Financial rights
(a) The mahr (dowry). This is the money to which the wife is entitled from her husband when the marriage contract is completed or when the marriage is consummated. It is a right which the man is obliged to pay to the woman. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;And give to the women (whom you marry) their Mahr (obligatory bridal-money given by the husband to his wife at the time of marriage) with a good heart&rdquo; [al-Nisaa&rsquo; 4:4]
The prescription of the mahr demonstrates the seriousness and importance of the marriage-contract, and is a token of respect and honour to the woman.
The mahr is not a condition or essential part of the marriage-contract, according to the majority of fuqahaa&rsquo;; rather it is one of the consequences of the contract. If the marriage-contract is done without any mention of the mahr, it is still valid, according to the consensus of the majority, because Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;There is no sin on you, if you divorce women while yet you have not touched (had sexual relation with) them, nor appointed unto them their Mahr (bridal-money given by the husband to his wife at the time of marriage)&rdquo; [al-Baqarah 2:236]
The fact that divorce is permitted before consummation of th...]]></video:description>

Tawheed in Arabic means attributing Oneness to Allaah and describing Him as being One and Unique, with no partner or peer in His Essence and Attributes.
The Arabs say waahid, ahad and waheed, all meaning one. Allaah is Waahid, meaning that He has no rivals or peers in any way. So Tawheed means knowing Allaah is One, with none like unto Him. Whoever does not acknowledge Allaah in these terms and does not describe Him as being One with no partner or associate does not believe in Tawheed.
With regard to the shar&rsquo;i definition of Tawheed, it means believing in Allaah alone as God and Lord and attributing to Him alone all the attributes of Lordship and divinity.
It may be defined as follows: Believing that Allaah is One with no partner or associate in His Lordship (ruboobiyyah), divinity (uloohiyyah) or names and attributes (al-asma&rsquo; wa&rsquo;l-sifaat).
This word (Tawheed) and its derivatives are used with this meaning in the Qur&rsquo;aan and Sunnah. For example:
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Say (O Muhammad): He is Allaah, (the) One [Ahad].
2. Allaah‑us‑Samad [Allaah &mdash; the Self‑Sufficient Master, Whom all creatures need, (He neither eats nor drinks)].
3. He begets not, nor was He begotten.
4. And there is none co‑equal or comparable unto Him&rdquo;
[al-Ikhlaas 112:1-3]
&ldquo;And your Ilaah (God) is One Ilaah [ilaahun waahidun] (God &mdash; Allaah), Laa Ilaaha illa Huwa (there is none who has the right to be worshipped but He), the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful&rdquo;
[al-Baqarah 2:163]
&ldquo;Surely, disbelievers are those who said: &lsquo;Allaah is the third of the three (in a Trinity).&rsquo; But there is no Ilaah (god) (none who has the right to be worshipped) but One Ilaah [ilaahun waahidun] (God &mdash;Allaah). And if they cease not from what they say, verily, a painful torment will befall on the disbelievers among them&rdquo;

      <video:title><![CDATA[The Top 5 reasons why Jesus is not the begotten son of God]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Does God Beget?Is Jesus the Begotten Son Of God?Can God have a son?Is the trinity biblical?Dr. Laurence Brown is our guest on today's show; A product of Christian-American ancestry dating back to the year 1677, up until his conversion to Islam in April of 1994, Dr. Brown easily could have passed as an example of a man who lived the stereotypical American dream. A graduate from two Ivy League universities with sub specialty training in ophthalmology, Dr. Brown served as a respected ophthalmologist in the U.S. Air Force for a period of eight years.Midway through his Air Force career, Dr. Brown's 'ideal American family' included a wife, two children, and the requisite two cars and a dog. His country home was crowded with the full array of comforts and toys which clutter the lives of those preoccupied with materialism. Yet Dr. Brown ended up sacrificing virtually everything he had worked for when he faced a religious conviction that overturned his lifelong priorities. Following a personal miracle through which the life of his daughter was saved, Dr. Brown redirected his focus to religious study in an attempt to make good on a promise made to God. In the process, Dr. Brown followed the chain of revelation through the Abrahamic religions from Judaism to Christianity and, in the end, to Islam. It is the result of that study that he relates in this series of thought-provoking books. In the same manner that Dr. Brown's choice of religion confronted his slice of the American dream, so too do his religious conclusions challenge the Western religious establishment.Laurence Brown received his B.A. from Cornell University, his MD from Brown University Medical School, and his ophthalmology residency training at George Washington University Hospital in Washington, DC. His immediate family presently consists of his wife, three daughters, and an ever changing assortment of parrots and hamsters.The Topic: Top 5 reasons Jesus is not the begotten son of GodFeel free to visit Dr. Brown's websit]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Challenges of Life]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[How to can one obtain success and prosperity in this world and the hereafterHereafter.What kind of success or prosperity that does iIslam want the ummah iIslamto gain in this world.Praise be to Allah.Peace of mind, contentment, happiness and freedom from worries and anxiety&hellip; these are what everyone wants, and these are the ways in which people can have a good life and find complete happiness and joy. There are religious means of achieving this, and natural and practical means, but no one can combine all of them except the believers; although other people may achieve some of them, they will miss out on others.
Here follows a summary of the means of achieving this aim for which everyone is striving. In some cases, those who achieve many of them will live a joyful life and a good life; in other cases, those who fail to achieve all of them will live a life of misery and hardship. And there are others which are in between, according to the means they are able to attain. These means include the following:
1 &ndash; Faith and righteous deeds:
This is the greatest and most fundamental of means. Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):
&ldquo;Whoever works righteousness &mdash; whether male or female &mdash; while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to him We will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and We shall pay them certainly a reward in proportion to the best of what they used to do (i.e. Paradise in the Hereafter).&rdquo;
[al-Nahl 16:97]
Allah tells us and promises us that whoever combines faith with righteous deeds will have a good life and a good reward in this world and in the Hereafter.
The reason for this is clear: those who believe in Allah &ndash; with sincere faith that motivates them to do righteous deeds that change hearts and attitudes and guides them to the straight path in this world and the Hereafter &ndash; follow principles and guidelines by means of which they deal with everything that happens to them, be it...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Stop Teaching Culture - Teach Islam!]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[A matter is bothering me, that is, how to distinguish between following the Prophet&rsquo;s (may Allah&rsquo;s peace and blessings be upon him) actions as a &ldquo;Sunnah&rdquo; and not following them because they are from his habits or customary practices. Examples of this would be the wearing of the turban or lengthening of the hair. It is known that the &ldquo;Sunnah&rdquo; refers to the sayings, actions or tacit approvals of the Prophet Muhammad (may Allah&rsquo;s peace and blessings be upon him), so what is the gauge by which I measure? If we were to say that the action had to be accompanied by an order then it would be considered a verbal Sunnah (i.e. from the sayings). Kindly explain.Praise be to Allaah.Firstly:
The &ldquo;Sunnah&rdquo; is what has been established from the Prophet (may Allah&rsquo;s peace and blessings be on him) of his sayings, actions or tacit approvals.
The basic principle with regards to his sayings is that they are for legislation. This is because he is conveying (this message) on behalf of His Lord, and he was sent as a guide for the creation, and he was ordered to inform and clarify matters for the people, as Allah says (what means): &ldquo;And We revealed to you the message that you may make clear to the people what was sent down to them&rdquo; (16:44) and He said (what means): &ldquo;O Messenger, announce that which has been revealed to you from your Lord, and if you do not, then you have not conveyed His message.&rdquo; (5:67)
The proof for this general principle (that the words of the Prophet - may Allah&rsquo;s peace and blessings be upon him - are considered to be legislation) is the hadeeth reported by Abu Dawud (3646): Abdullah ibn &lsquo;Amr said: &ldquo;I used to write everything I heard from the Messenger of Allah (may Allah&rsquo;s peace and blessing be upon him), wanting to memorize it but Quraysh forbade me saying: &lsquo;do you write everything you hear while the Messenger of Allah (may Allah&rsquo;s peace and blessings be upon him) is a human being who speaks ...]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Review of the Movie From Dunya to Deen]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[The episode delves into the transformation of a man's life from a chaotic existence to a path of spiritual enlightenment, encapsulating the journey 'From Dunya to Deen.' Eddie's tumultuous past, characterized by reckless behaviors and a sense of emptiness, serves as a powerful narrative that showcases the profound change one can undergo. As viewers witness Eddie's journey from a life marred by inner turmoil and ethical extremes to one marked by conscious efforts towards goodness, the episode highlights the struggles and the conscious decision-making inherent in such a transformation. The lack of fulfillment and inner emptiness experienced by Eddie in his former life serves as a poignant reminder of the transient nature of worldly pursuits, ultimately leading him to seek a deeper spiritual connection to fill the void within him.

Through Eddie's compelling story, the episode subtly emphasizes the impact of positive change and the journey towards self-discovery and spiritual growth. The overarching message resonates with the core intention of The Deen Show, aiming to provide insight into Islam and dispel misconceptions while offering a welcoming and thought-provoking space for viewers. The narrative hints at the transformative power of faith and the notion that even amidst skepticism and resistance, true change is possible. Eddie's journey from darkness to light serves as a testament to the potential for inner growth and redemption, urging viewers to reflect on their own paths and consider the possibility of embarking on a similar journey towards spiritual fulfillment and purpose.]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Join From Dunya to Deen's Facebook page.&ldquo;An Example of Redemption&rdquo;Review of the Movie From Dunya to DeenBy Umm Zakiyyah &ldquo;Growing up in America, Eddie lived the American dream. He achieved it all before the age of thirty&mdash;money, cars, women.&rdquo;  These are the narrator&rsquo;s opening words to the ground-breaking documentary film about how Eddie Redzovic, founder and host of the worldly-renowned The Deen Show, came to Islam.  However, the narrator&rsquo;s next words are those that truly open this film: &ldquo;But beneath the surface&hellip;&rdquo; And &ldquo;beneath the surface&rdquo; is the story of one man&mdash;a troubled and broken soul&mdash;who makes the streets his battleground and the nightclub his place of refuge. Yet, as he repeatedly throws himself into throes of violence and death, he discovers that his most dangerous battleground lies within&hellip; The story of troubled Eddie&mdash;who was born in Buffalo, New York, to Yugoslavian immigrants&mdash;begins while Eddie is in Chicago, where his parents moved while he was still a child.  With two working parents and lots of time on his hands, young Eddie fills his days with what could only be described as every parent&rsquo;s nightmare: bad friends, complete disregard for school, and, ultimately, gang membership. &ldquo;Children are like a garden,&rdquo; Eddie&rsquo;s uncle reflects regretfully on what happened to his nephew during those years. &ldquo;If you miss [even] one week of watering, it&rsquo;s overcome with weeds.&rdquo;  Like so many troubled souls before him, it is within the somber solitude of a jail cell years later that Eddie realizes that his life is in disarray. Ironically, it is the absence of his closest companions&mdash;his fellow gang members, his &ldquo;family&rdquo;&mdash;that inspires this realization.  &ldquo;I&rsquo;m in a jail cell thinking&hellip;These people don&rsquo;t care about me.&rdquo;  Then comes the ultimate question that every soul must surely ask itself at least once upon this earth, &ldqu...]]></video:description>

This is a wonderful story which many people can benefit from. Nouman Ali Khan is a popular figure all across America for his intensive Arabic Seminars. Nouman after coming to America found himself caught up in a culture shock. After being raised up in a Muslim household for a good portion of his life, he found himself questioning the very values that he was raised up with, eventually leading him to strongly detesting the concept of God internally before turning back to God.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Burn Qur'an Day]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[While Pastor Jones has called off this campaign, his virulent attacks on Islam have nonetheless created even more confusion regarding Islam and its primary religious text -- the Qur'an (or Koran).&nbsp;So we decided to take a shot at a satire to educate people about the Qur'an to prevent any further similar initiatives come to fruition. This initiative was extremely inflammatory - spreading misconceptions and divisiveness over a very short period of time. This video attempts to demystify the Qur'an, dispelling some of the myths propagated.Muslims believe the first word of revelation from Allah to the Prophet Muhammed (peace and blessings upon him) was "Iqra" which literally means "read". In that light we should give the Qur'an the benefit of the doubt, and read it in its entirety in conjunction with its proper exegesis (Tafseer) before jumping the gun.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Iblees, The Jinn Race, and Devils]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[In Islam, the Devil is known as ʾIblīs (Arabic: إبليس&lrm;, plural: ابالسة ʾAbālisa) or Shayṭān (Arabic: شيطان&lrm;, plural: شياطين Shayāṭīn). According to the Quran, God created Iblis out of "smokeless fire or from the pure flame of fire" (along with all of the other jinn) and created man out of clay. The primary characteristic of the Devil, is that he has the power to cast evil suggestions into the heart of men, women, and jinn,&nbsp;Iblis was proud and arrogant and considered himself superior to Adam, since Adam was made from clay and Iblis from smokeless fire. For this act of disobedience, God cursed him to Hell for eternity, but gave him respite until the Day of Judgment (Qiyāmah), after Iblis requested it. Iblis obtained permission from God and vowed that he would use this time to lead all human men and women astray to Hell as a way of revenge against them. By refusing to obey God's order he was thrown out of Paradise and thereafter he was called "Shaytan".]]></video:description>

So since when people come to know that some religions have these problems they think that all of the religions in the world must have the same problems. Is this right? Have you studied every single religion? Is there a religion which has no flaws and contradictions in it? Or is it possible that is there a religion who's scripture was not authored by men? Is there a religion which has none of these problems? I took this clip from one of the episode of the Deen show in which Nouman Ali Khan talks about this Issue.]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[The 5 pillars of Islam are simple, logical, and rational: to accept that there's no true God except Allah the Creator and Muhammad is His messenger and establish prayer with Allah 5 times a day; zakat: charity by the person if they have a certain amount of wealth to give back 2.5% to the poor; fasting in Ramadhan: like a training camp for Muslims to strengthen their manners and renew their faith for the rest of the year; and Hajj: for the Muslim who is able to financially able to make the pilgrimage to the city of Mecca in order to answer God's call.
Here, Syeikh Waleed Abdulhakeem, his going to explain, in more depth, the history behind Hajj and its rituals. It's very interesting to learn and know.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Night of Power]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[A message from Abu Eesa:&nbsp;Ive been getting a lot of messages passed on about a few things I mentioned in the above lecture that is perhaps causing confusion so let me clarify these things and you can perhaps spread that amongst those whod like to know.Firstly is the story of Zohrah i.e. the angels being sent to Earth as humans to sin etc and realise first hand for themselves how hard it is to be a human, what a huge test it is, and why therefore the humans are better than the rest of creation because of it. This principle is correct without doubt, but the story of Zohrah was only mentioned as a support of this principle (i.e. that humans are better than the angels because they have to make the choice to avoid sin). Also note that I mentioned clearly in the lecture that the story has many different chains and also note that I said it was a story from the Israelites and that in my own personal conclusion it is only correct to say that is an authentic statement of Kab al-Ahbar and never a Prophetic hadith, despite some Ulema believing that. This is also the opinion of Ibn Hajr (r) who has a separate book just on the chains of this narration.Again, the reason for mentioning this story is to make the people realise that the Angels have come a long way from their surprise and contempt for mankind at the time of the creation of Sayyidina Adam (as), to their love and support for mankind once Allah jalla wa ala told them, I know (about them) what you dont know. The use of the stories of the Israelites are to be thought about only, to add context and to give a deeper sense of the history of the issue. They are not to be taken as aqidah but they are also not to be thrown in the bin as we are taught by the best of generations.Secondly, the salam of the Angels helping Ibrahim (as): Listen, there is no doubt that Allah jalla wa ala was the One who commanded the fire to become cold.

      <video:description><![CDATA[Here in this video, Eddie with his Guest, Shyakh Ibrahim Zidan, will be talking about manners and how we conduct ourselves as those whom submitted to only one God, Allah, by following the example of our Nabi Muhammad salAllahu alaihi wasalam. It's important to recognize the rights that everyone and everything around you have upon you, and this will sharpen your manners, by the will of God. The life experiences involving the Prophet Muhammad salAllahu alaihi wasalam and those around him are mentioned in terms of showing how we should interact with our neighbors, family members, unbelievers, etc.]]></video:description>

CAIR representative, Corey Saylor, diplomatically presents the obvious rights violations in relation to the hate-filled acts of violence &nbsp;unaccounted for against mosques and the like."Former Vermont governor, Howard Dean, broke ranks with what he has called the Democratic wing of the Democratic Party, to parallel the Republican position on a divisive issue Republicans have trumped up for their own electoral benefit. Howard Dean thinks Muslim-Americans can, but not should build a community center with space for worship two blocks away from Ground Zero."]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Facebook has become a social media site that everyone has and it can really be used for lots of good in promoting the Deen and other good things but unfortunately many Muslims have fallen into the trap of Shaytan by putting themselves out there in a very bad way. Women instead of guarding their modesty and beauty are putting pics of themselves out there for the world to see and many are looking for attention from the boys and boys are doing the same thing.
Muslims are wasting hundreds of useless hours on Fitna Facebook instead of learning their Deen and forming a relationship with Allah the Almighty and his Quran and the Sunnah. In this video Eddie of TheDeenshow will be giving a friendly reminder of what to stay away from this Ramadan and more on the matter in shaa Allah.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Was America Founded as a Judeo-Christian Nation? Shocking Truth.]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Christian Scholar, Dr. Gerald Dirks, informs the masses of the truth behind the religious influences of our nation's first presidents. Some people might believe that America was founded upon a Judeo-Christian theology, but "none of our first seven presidents belonged to a church upon becoming president of this country." In fact, George Washington believed that there is only one god, The Creator. He also believed that Jesus was only a prophet and not the son of God and he did not believe in the Crucifixion or the Trinity.
Listen to this, masha Allah, educated and balanced man to gain a deeper understanding of a very controversial matter. In shaa Allah.

      <video:description><![CDATA[Do we have vision in life? Do we have a mission in life? A vision usually directs a person to think of a plan for their future. What is our vision? Where is our focus? Where are our goals? Where does it end?Islam give us the answers to this. As Muslims, we've been asked by Allah the Almighty to focus our vision on the afterlife (akhirah) and not in this life that is temporary. Dr. Mamdouh Mohamed will give us advice on focusing on the long-term life instead of this temporary life.]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Experiment: Why Women Must Cover Up]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[Misconceptions about Islam regarding the video subject:&bull; In Islam, one must not glare lustfully at the opposite sex. This is particularly true for men.&bull; In Islam, one must dress modestly. This is particularly true for women.&bull; Islamic Laws regarding punishments for fornication or adultery are the SAME for both sexes.&bull; The conditions set to trial a fornicator or adulterer are strict and practically impossible. Four ' trusted ' witnesses must have all witnessed the act.&bull; Islamic Laws ONLY apply to Muslims. Non-Muslims may apply their own religious laws.As Muslims, we believe Islamic laws are divine. It may appear brutal, but in fact, it is Just and Merciful, for individuals and society.Thank you]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Oklahoma Bombing Conspirator, Terry Nichols, on Hunger Strike]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[In a recent episode of The Deen Show, an intriguing discussion centered around Terry Nichols, a conspirator in the tragic Oklahoma City bombing of 1995, who has initiated a hunger strike in prison. Nichols' hunger strike is not a protest against his role in the bombing but rather because he feels the food provided at the federal supermax prison in Colorado lacks the necessary fiber and nutrition, which he believes is essential to his health and religious beliefs. Representing himself in a lawsuit over the prison food, Nichols argues that the absence of whole grains in his diet is harmful to his well-being and causes him to sin against God. This case brings to light the importance of religious beliefs, personal health, and the treatment of prisoners, prompting viewers to reflect on the complexities of justice and human rights.

Through the lens of Nichols' hunger strike, The Deen Show delves into the nuances of prison conditions, the impact of nutrition on physical and spiritual well-being, and the complexities of justice within the legal system. By shedding light on Nichols' situation, the episode encourages viewers to ponder deeper questions surrounding the treatment of prisoners, religious accommodations, and the ethical responsibilities of institutions towards those under their care. As the discussion extends beyond the specifics of Nichols' case to broader themes of justice and human dignity, viewers are challenged to consider the intersection of personal beliefs, societal norms, and legal frameworks, prompting a thoughtful reflection on the multifaceted aspects of compassion, justice, and understanding in a diverse and interconnected world.]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[FBI Asked to Probe Latest Vandalism of Florida MosqueMiami-area Islamic center targeted repeatedly by unknown attackersMIAMI, July 2 -- The south Florida chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-SFL) today called on the FBI to investigate a possible bias motive for vandalism at a mosque in that state.Vandals smashed two windows of the Islamic School of Miami this past weekend but the vandalism was only discovered on Tuesday because the windows were in a storage area. Six months ago, the same mosque's windows were shattered and its golden dome damaged by a hail of gunfire. In 2005, a large rock was used to shatter the door of the mosque. In 2004, the mosque's sign was defaced with a Nazi swastika.SEE: Vandals Smash Windows of West Kendall Mosque (Miami Herald)http://www.miamiherald.com/news/miami..."We urge state and federal law enforcement authorities to investigate a possible bias motive for this latest attack," said CAIR National Communications Director Ibrahim Hooper. "We also urge those committed to justice and interfaith tolerance to speak out against the perpetrators."Hooper also asked local police to provide stepped-up protection at the mosque. He said CAIR offers advice for reacting to anti-Muslim hate crimes in its "Muslim Community Safety Kit."SEE: CAIR Muslim Community Safety Kithttp://www.cair.com/ActionCenter/Comm...CAIR, America's largest Muslim civil liberties and advocacy organization, has 35 offices and chapters nationwide and in Canada. Its mission is to enhance the understanding of Islam, encourage dialogue, protect civil liberties, empower American Muslims, and build coalitions that promote justice and mutual understanding.]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Who was Zaid? Adoption was used in the term "son." Zaid was a slave of the Prophet salAllahu alaihi wasalam. He freed Zaid and referred to him as his son.
Who was Zainab?Zainab was the cousin of the Prophet salAllahu alaihi wasalam. It was not a sudden lust that birthed the marriage, rather a decree from Allah The Almighty. In fact, our Nabi salAllahu alaihi wasalam attempted to hide the command to marry Zainab but Allah revealed His resolution in Surah 33.
How did Zaid and Zainab marry?Zainab married Zaid because his character was exemplary, but differences arose within the marriage. And divorce became evident.
How did Muhammad come to marry Zainab?Allah revealed His decree in Surah 33:37 - "Behold! Thou didst say to one who had received the grace of Allah and thy favour: "Retain thou (in wedlock) thy wife, and fear Allah." But thou didst hide in thy heart that which Allah was about to make manifest: thou didst fear the people, but it is more fitting that thou shouldst fear Allah. Then when Zaid had dissolved (his marriage) with her, with the necessary (formality), We joined her in marriage to thee: in order that (in future) there may be no difficulty to the Believers in (the matter of) marriage with the wives of their adopted sons, when the latter have dissolved with the necessary (formality) (their marriage) with them. And Allah's command must be fulfilled."
Allah reassured Muhammad, salAllahu alaihi wasalam, in what matters: "...in order that (in future) there may be no difficulty to the Believers in (the matter of) marriage with the wives of their adopted sons, when the latter have dissolved with the necessary (formality) (their marriage) with them. And Allah's command must be fulfilled."]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[The proper approach of the enforcement of the law.
The Prophet salAllahu alaihi wasalam never stereotyped in terms of punishment. He didn't group all persons from one group of people under the actions of the offender. The punishment for the offense was always proportionate to the offense that was committed. In the Constitution of Medinah, the Jews and Muslims are both to defend Medinah from attackers.
Surah 2:256 - "Let there be no compulsion in religion: Truth stands out clear from Error: whoever rejects evil and believes in Allah hath grasped the most trustworthy hand-hold, that never breaks. And Allah heareth and knoweth all things."]]></video:description>

      <video:title><![CDATA[Omar Challenges Islam]]></video:title>
      <video:description><![CDATA[A very interesting story about a young man who was born to Muslim parents and went off to college to get his party on. Until, one day, he decided to challenge Islam and the Qur'an in order to have a clear conscience. He thought that he would find faults and contradictions in the Qur'an which would somehow permit him to party and not feel so guilty under the pretense that Islam was just another man made religion. Little did he know, Islam is like nothing else he had ever experienced.

      <video:description><![CDATA[Backgrounder: Who's Behind NY's Anti-Islam Bus, Mosque Campaigns?The anti-Islam New York bus ad campaign and the campaign to block construction of a mosque and Islamic community center in New York are both headed by an extremist Muslim-basher who claims that "Hitler and the Nazis were inspired by Islam."Stop the Islamization of America (SIOA), the anti-Islam hate group behind both efforts, is led by Pamela Geller.&nbsp;[NOTE: The United States Patent and Trademark Office recently refused to grant SOIA a trademark because: "The applied-for mark refers to Muslims in a disparaging manner because by definition it implies that conversion or conformity to Islam is something that needs to be stopped or caused to cease."]Geller recently posted images on her blog purporting to depict Islam's Prophet Muhammad. Several of those images show the prophet as a pig. Another image, headlined "Piss Be Upon Him," shows one of the controversial Danish cartoons of the prophet covered in urine. ("Piss Be Upon Him" is designed to mock the traditional phrase "Peace Be Upon Him" that Muslims use when mentioning any prophet of God.)She has in the past referred to President Obama as a "ball s**ker" and posted a photoshopped image of him urinating on an American flag.&nbsp;On her personal blog, Geller has written of President Obama: "[O]ne thing is for sure: Hussein is a muhammadan [sic]." Geller also wrote: "[I]t is well known that Obama allegedly was involved with a crack whore in his youth."Geller has been vocal in her criticism of the black population in South Africa and seemingly supportive of the slain South African apartheid leader Eugene Terre'blanche. Following Terre'blanche's recent murder, Geller wrote: "All I see in South Africa is Black supremacism. Terreblanche [sic] may have been a white supremacist, but he's the dead one."Her blog has in the past featured categories such as "Advancing Islamic Lies" and "Islam 2008: Religion of Barbarism." She was recently involved in a Florida conference that invited extremist anti-Islam ...]]></video:description>

      <video:description><![CDATA[Surah Al Iklaas - Allah, out of His mercy, gave these ayat as a criterion to determine whether the gods a person worships is really god.
Muhammad (peace be upon him), the last messenger of God, was sent to us to be our teacher and teach us how to submit ourselves to the one God, Allah the Almighty. The guidance that Muhammad was given is the Qur'an, a code of conduct that is applicable universally and for all times. We hold it as our guidance, not only for Muslims, but to the all of humanity.Let's watch this video with an open mind and humble heart. In shaa Allah.
