[u]DONT IGNORE ME IN PEACE TIME[/u]
Hazrat Nomaan bin Basheer (rz) says, Once Hazrat Abo Bakar went to the house of
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him) and sought permission to enter. But while
standing at the door he heard a loud noice of his daughter, Hazrat ayesha (rz),
who was arguing with Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him), Because of which
Hazrat Abo Bakar became angry and when Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him)
allowed him to enter, first he raised his hand to slap his daughter, but the
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him) intervened and saved her. When Hazrat Abo
Bakar (rz) could not punish her, in anger he left the house and did not see
them both for some days (because of anger on his daughter and being ashamed of
expressing his anger in front of the Prophet).
Then again, Hazrat Abo bakar went to the house of Prophet Muhammad (peace be
upon Him) and sought permission to enter. After getting permission when he came
inside, he saw Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him) and Hazrat Ayesha (rz) in
pleasant mood. He addressed them, "Include me in your peace, as you
included me in your war."
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him) said "of course we did, of course we
did."
(Abo Dawood)

[u]DREAMING FOR A FREE LUNCH[/u]
Once Hazrat Abo Zar (rz) said to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him), I heard
when Dajjal (anti criest) will appear, this world will be suffering from swear
drought. So dajjal will present people with different types of food. If I also
survive till his appearance, I will first eat his feast till i am satisfied and
after i finish, I will deny his teaching."
After listening to the wishes of Hazrat Abo Zar (rz), Prophet Muhammad (peace
be upon Him) smiled and said "If you survive till Dajjal, Allah will not
make you dependent on Dajjal."
............................
[u]EVEN IF ABO ZAR DSESN'T WANT AND LIKE IT[/u]
Once Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him) said, "who ever has a firm faith
that on one is eligible to be worshiped except Allah, will enter heaven."
Hazrat Abo Zar (rz) was surprised and he asked, "O messenger of Allah!
After having such faith can a person enter heaven even if he committed illegal
sex and theft?'
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him) said, Yes, he will enter heaven."
Then the second time Hazrat Abo Zar (rz) asked the same question, "O
messenger of Allah! Can a person enter heaven even if he committed illegal sex
and theft?"
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him) said, "Yes, He will enter
heaven."
The the third time Hazrat Abo Zar (rz) again asked with surprise the same
question, "O messenger of Allah! can a person enter heaven even if he
committed illegal sex and theft?"
This time Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him) replied. "Yes, the person
will enter heaven, even if Abo Zar doesn't want and like it."
After the death of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him), when ever Hazrat Abo
Zar (rz) narrated this hadees, He always mentioned with pleasure the sentence,
"Who ever has faith in one Allah, will enter heaven, even if Abu Zar
doesn't want and like it."
.................................
[u]WE ARE EVEN NOW[/u]
Hazrat Aisha (rz) narrates: Once the Prophet (peace be upon Him) and I were on
a journey. I was thin back then and not fat. The Prophet told the people around
him:“Go ahead. We will catch you.”
When we were left behind far enough he told me:
“Let’s race!”
We raced and I won. He did not mention it again.
Thenl I gained some weight. Meanwhile I completely forgot about this incident.
During another journey he told the people around him to go ahead.
When they went far away, he said to me, “Let’s race!”
This time he won and started to laugh saying “we are even now.”

[u]NO HEAVEN FOR OLD PEOPLE[/u]
Hazrat Anas (rz) says: Once an old lady asked Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon
Him) to pray for her, so that Allah may bless her with heaven. Prophet said,
"No old lady will enter heaven."
She was shocked, begin crying and asked, "Why old women will not enter
heaven?"
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him) said, "Did not you read the verse of
Qur'an which says. Women of heaven will be of young age."
(Mean all people who died old will be made young first, then will enter
heaven.)
.................................
[u]COME ALONG WITH YOUR FULL BODY[/u]
Hazrat Auf bin Maalik Ashari (rz) says: During the journey of Tabook, I went to
meet Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him) when He(Peace be upon Him) was
relaxing in a leather tent. I greeted Him(peace be upon Him) (said Salam),
He(peace be upon Him) replied. Then I asked permission to meet him. He gave me
permission. then I asked, Shall i come inside tent along with my full body?
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him) said, "Yes, come along with your full
body."
So i entered the tent.
Hazrat Usman bin Abo Ataka says, the leather tent in which Prophet Muhammad
(peace be upon Him) was relaxing was too small. Hence Hazrat Auf Said, Shall I
come along with full body?"
Hazrat Auf(rz) only by leaning inside tent, could have talked to Prophet
Muhammad (peace be upon Him), but both were in jolly mood, hence talked in terms
of full and half body.

“And proclaim to mankind the Hajj (pilgrimage). They will come to you on foot and on every lean camel, they will come from every deep and distant (wide) mountain highway (to perform Hajj).
That they may witness things that are of benefit to them (i.e. reward of Hajj in the Hereafter, and also some worldly gain from trade)”
[al-Hajj 22:27-28]
Al-Nasaa’i (2578) narrated that Abu Hurayrah said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The guests of Allaah are three: the warrior for the sake of Allaah, the pilgrim performing Hajj and the pilgrim performing ‘Umrah.” Classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Nasaa’i, 2464.
28 – Strengthening bonds with the believers, as represented in the words of the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him): “Your blood, your honour and your wealth are sacred to you as this day of yours in this month of yours in this land of yours is sacred.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 65; Muslim, 3180.
29 – The season of Hajj is distinguished by complete separation from the people of shirk and kufr who are forbidden to attend any part of it. It is forbidden for them to enter the Haram at any time, no matter what their purpose. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
“O you who believe (in Allaah’s Oneness and in His Messenger Muhammad)! Verily, the Mushrikoon (polytheists, pagans, idolaters, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allaah, and in the Message of Muhammad) are Najasun (impure). So let them not come near Al-Masjid Al-Haraam (at Makkah) after this year; and if you fear poverty, Allaah will enrich you if He wills, out of His Bounty. Surely, Allaah is All-Knowing, All-Wise”
[al-Tawbah 9:28]
Al-Bukhaari narrated that Abu Hurayrah said: “Abu Bakr (may Allaah be pleased with him) sent me as an announcer on that Hajj [which the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) appointed Abu Bakr to lead in 9 AH], to announce on the Day of Sacrifice in Mina that after this year no mushrik might perform Hajj and no one might circumambulate the House naked.”
Farewell Tawaf
Farewell Tawaf is the final rite of Hajj. It is to make another Tawaf around the Ka'bah. Ibn Abbas said: "The people were ordered to perform the Tawaf around the Ka'bah as the last thing before leaving Makkah, except the menstruating women who were excused." Bukhari.

“and whosoever honours the Symbols of Allaah, then it is truly, from the piety of the hearts”
[al-Hajj 22:32]
19 – Training the rich to give up their distinct clothing and accommodation and making them equal with the poor in clothing and in the rituals of tawaaf, saa’i and stoning the jamaraat. This teaches them to be humble and to realise the insignificance of this worldly life.
20 – The pilgrim persists in worshipping and remembering Allaah during the days of Hajj, moving from one sacred place to the next, from one action to another. This is a kind of intensive training in worship and remembrance of Allaah.
21 – Training oneself to be kind to people – so the pilgrim guides those who are lost, teaches those who are ignorant, helps the poor, and supports the disabled and weak.
22 – Developing good characteristics such as forbearance and putting up with annoyance from people, because the pilgrim will inevitably be exposed to crowding and arguments, etc. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
“The Hajj (pilgrimage) is (in) the well-known (lunar year) months (i.e. the 10th month, the 11th month and the first ten days of the 12th month of the Islamic calendar, i.e. two months and ten days). So whosoever intends to perform Hajj therein (by assuming Ihraam), then he should not have sexual relations (with his wife), nor commit sin, nor dispute unjustly during the Hajj.”
[al-Baqarah 2:197]
23 – Training oneself to be patient and to put up with difficulties such as heat, long distances, being apart from one’s family, going back and forth between the holy sites and crowded conditions therein.
24 – Learning to give up one's usual habits and the things that one is comfortable with, because the pilgrim has to uncover his head and give up his regular clothes, and leave behind the accommodation, food and drink that he is used to.
25 – When the pilgrim does saa’i between al-Safa and al-Marwah, he remembers that the one who obeys Allaah and puts his trust in Him and turns to Him, He will not let him down, rather He will raise high the esteem in which he is held. When Haajar the mother of Ismaa’eel (peace be upon them both) said to Ibraaheem, “Has Allaah commanded you to do this?” he said, “Yes.” She said, “Then He will not let us down.” So Allaah raised high the esteem in which she was held and the people, including the Prophets, started to run between the two hills as she had done.
26 – Teaching oneself not to despair of the mercy of Allaah, no matter how great one's worries and distress. For the way out is in Allaah’s hand. The mother of Ismaa’eel thought her son was about to die, and she started to run from one mountain to the other, looking for a solution, and it came to her from a source she could never imagine when the angel came down and struck the ground, and out came the water of Zamzam with its healing for diseases of the heart and body.

Making the pilgrimage is often called following in the footsteps of Ibrahim. This is due to the fact that the rituals involved in the pilgrimage replicate many of the events in Prophet Ibrahim’s life. Eid ul Adha commemorates a specific trial in the life of Ibrahim. He was commanded by God to sacrifice, his son Ishmael. Eid ul Adha occurs on the 10th day of Dhul Hijjah, the day on which most of the Hajj rites have been preformed and the pilgrims slaughter an animal to honour Prophet Ibrahim’s obedience to God.
“Surely Ibrahim was an example, obedient to God, by nature upright, and he was not of the polytheists. He was grateful for Our bounties. We chose him and guided him unto a right path. We gave him good in this world, and in the next he will most surely be among the righteous.” (Quran 16:120-121)
In a divinely inspired dream, Ibrahim saw himself sacrificing his son Ishmael. All members of Ibrahim’s family demonstrated complete trust in God, therefore Ibrahim revealed the dream to Ishmael. He readily agreed that his father must carry out the command of God. Together they went to the place of sacrifice and offered Ishmael’s life to God. Ibrahim prepared to sacrifice his beloved son. At this point the shaytaan (satan) tempted Ibrahim trying to make him disobey God, but Ibrahim resisted and drove the shaytaan away. Ibrahim looked down at his son for what he believed was the last time but as the blade came close to Ishmael’s neck God stayed his hand and revealed that there was no need for Ibrahim to continue. His sacrifice had already been fulfilled.
Giving up something big for the sake of God, such as the life of your child, must seem like a huge and unimaginable sacrifice. Today even going without something small, such as a cup of coffee, to donate the money to charity seems like a large sacrifice. Try to imagine how Ibrahim must have felt as he held the blade above his child’s neck. In the last moment he was relieved of his duty to follow God’s commands. Having complete trust in God, knowing with certainty that God knows and wants what is best for us is often difficult, but it should not be.
“…And whosoever fears God and keeps his duty to Him, He will make a way for him to get out (from every difficulty). And He will provide him from (sources) he never could imagine….” (Quran 65:2-3)
God replaced Ishmael with a sheep and it is for this reason that Muslims sacrifice an animal on the celebration of Eid ul Adha; however it is more than a celebration, it is a reminder. We are reminded of our own submission to the will of God. Those Muslim’s who are not making the pilgrimage and who can afford it sacrifice an animal in remembrance of Prophet Ibrahim’s test.
“Their meat will not reach Allah, nor will their blood, but what reaches Him is piety from you….” (Quran 22:37)
The act of animal sacrifice is often misunderstood. God has no need for the blood or the meat; in fact God has no need for any of our acts of worship. However for our own benefit God commands us to turn to Him and obey Him. God looks for our piety, our goodness and our charity. The animal sacrificed is usually a sheep, a goat or a cow.
Distributing the meat from the sacrifice of Eid al-Adha strengthens many of our efforts to please God with our piety. Usually, a portion is eaten by the immediate family and relatives, a portion is given away to friends and neighbours and a portion is donated to the poor. The act symbolizes our willingness to give up our bounties to strengthen ties of kinship and friendship and our enthusiasm to give up things that are of benefit to us in order to help those who are in need. In the sacrifice we recognize that all blessings come from God.

9 – Pointing out the importance of Muslims coming together and establishing harmony. For we see usually each person travelling on his own, whereas in Hajj we see people coming in groups.
10 – Getting to know the situation of the Muslims from trustworthy sources, since the Muslim can hear directly from his brother about the situation of his Muslim brothers in the land from which he has come.
11 –Exchanging benefits and experience among the Muslims in general.
12 – Meeting scholars and decision makers from all countries and studying the situation and needs of the Muslims, and the importance of cooperating with them.
13 – Achieving true submission to Allaah by standing in the holy places when the pilgrim leaves al-Masjid al-Haraam which is the best of spots, and standing in ‘Arafah.
14 – Forgiveness of sins, because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Whoever does Hajj and does not speak any obscene words or commit any sin will go back cleansed of sin as on the day his mother bore him.”
15 – Opening the doors of hope to those who commit sin, and teaching them to give up their sin in these holy places, so that they will give up a lot of their bad habits during the period of Hajj and its rituals.
16 – Proclaiming that Islam is the religion of organization, because during Hajj the rituals and time are organized, with every action done in the place and at the time defined for it.
17 – Training oneself to spend in charitable ways and to avoid miserliness. The pilgrim spends a great deal of money for the sake of Hajj, on travel expenses, on the road and in the sacred places.

[u]WHO WILL BUY THIS SLAVE[/u]
Hazrat Anas says: A villager named Zaher bin Haram (r.z) used to bring good
from his village to sell them in Madinah. He also used to bring some rural
gifts for Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him). In return Prophet Muhammad
(peace be upon Him) also gave him some gifts made in Madinah.
He was a pious man, an Arab but African like personality. Prophet Muhammad
(peace be upon Him) had respect and love for him and use to say "He is my
rural friend, and I am his urban friend".
Once, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him) saw him selling his goods in
market. He quietly came from behind so that Zaher bin Haram could not see him,
and to surprise him, He suddenly embraced him from behind. Zaher said,
"Who is that? Free me." But when he realized that he is Prophet
Muhammad (peace be upon Him), he tried to remain like that for more time (to
have blessings).
The Prophet jokingly asked his companions, "Who will purchase this
slave?". Laughing and still in Prophet's grip, Zaher said, "O
messenger of Allah! you will be in loss (because due to my poor personality, no
one will give you a good price)."
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him) said, "(No Zaher), even if people
don't give you due respect, but for Allah you are priceless and
invaluable."
(Ahmad, Mishkaat)

[u]YOU ATE TOO MUCH DATES[/u]
Once Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him), Hazrat Ali (rz) and few other
companions were eating dates from a big plate.
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him) by way of jest put the seeds in
front of Hazrat Ali (rz). When all finished eating, there were no seeds in
front of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him), but a heap in front of Hazrat
Ali (rz).
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon Him) feigned surprise and asked, "O Ali,
you ate so many dates?"
Hazrat Ali humbly replied, "O messenger of Allah! Today i realized that
you eat dates with the seeds."

The caravan had been traveling for few hours now. Signs of fatigue wereobvious on their faces. They arrived at a point and stopped. The Prophet
(S.A.W.) who was also in the caravan, stopped the camel, and landed. Prior to
anything, they were in search of water to prepare for prayer.
The Prophet (S.A.W.) also started searching for water. But soon, returned to
his camel, without saying anything to anyone. The companions were surprised
that the Prophet (S.A.W.) had ordered stopping here, and now perhaps he would
like to move again? Eyes and ears were awaiting his order. But the surprise of
the group increased as they saw him approach his camel, and tied its knees, and
returned back in search of water.
Noises were raised from every corner:
" O Prophet of Allah! Why didn't you order us to do this for you, and
insteadyou put yourself in discomfort? We would have proudly done that service
for you."
The Prophet (S.A.W.) responded: "Never seek others' help in your affairs,
don't lean on others, even if it is a small piece of Miswak (the wood used for
brushing teeth)."

One day the holy Prophet of Allah was goingsomewhere when he met a man selling a camel.
The holy Prophet (peace be upon Him) liked the camel and bought it at an
agreed price. The holy Prophet (peace be upon Him) did not have money on
him at the time so he asked the camel dealer to follow him up to his home and
he would pay him his due. The man agreed. As they were going, another man
approached and asked
the camel dealer if he was selling his camel and for how much. He said that he
had already sold the camel to the holy Prophet for such an amount. This man
offered him better price and he agreed to sale the camel to him. The holy
Prophet said to the camel dealer that since he had already sold the camel to
him, it was wrong to break the agreement just like that. The man denied making
any agreement.
Whilst all this was going on, the passers by stopped and wondered as to what
was going on. The Apostle of Allah explained exactly what happened. Companions:
O Prophet of Allah, do you have any witnesses to support your claim?" Holy
Prophet (P): No. We have no witnesses as there was no one present when the
agreement was made. Companions: Sorry, we don't think we can help you. How can
we be sure who is telling the truth and who is lying? A very close companion of
the holy Prophet happened to pass by and saw the holy Prophet (peace be
upon Him) surrounded by the people. On inquiring about it, came to know what
happened.
Companion: The Prophet (peace be upon Him) of Allah is telling the truth
and the camel dealer is lying.
The holy Prophet: But you were not present when the agreement was made. So how
can you judge without being there?
Companion: O Prophet of Allah, you said that there is Allah and we believed
you, even though we haven't seen Him. You told us that Qur'an was the word of
Allah and we believed you. You told us about angels, heaven and hell and we
believed you, even though we haven't seen all these things. How is it possible
that you would lie about such petty thing?

???????? (5) ????? ???? ???? YusufEstes (5) Ramadan
This is inthe distant past
but nowFirstto know is that the prophet prayed towards Al-Aqsa mosque before Hijrah, and
after it, he prayed towards it for about seventeen months until Rajab of the
second year (according to Ibn Abbas), when Allah ordered him to pray towards
Kaabah. Didthe Prophet pray towards Al-Aqsa at the order of Allah or at his own decision? Themajority of scholars agreed that it was at the order of Allah, the following
ayah is an evidence: And thus we have made you a just community that you will be witnessesover the people and the Messenger will be a witness over you. And We did not
make the qiblah which you used to face except that We might make evident who
would follow the Messenger from who would turn back on his heels. And indeed,
it is difficult except for those whom Allah has guided. And never would Allah
have caused you to lose your faith. Indeed Allah is, to the people, Kind and
Merciful. Surat Al-Baqarah:143. Inthis verse Allah says that he made the old qiblah (Al-Aqsa) for a reason (rest
of the ayah), so this is an evidence that Allah is who chose Al-Aqsa as the
first Qibla. However,other scholars (the minority) say that he prayed towards it at his own decision,
they say that although he did so, Allah wouldn't let him do that if he was
wrong. Others say that he is preserved from mistaking. However,even if it was at his own decision (although it wasn't), he used to pray
towards Al-Aqsa through Kaabah. For after Hijrah, he probably chose it based on
this ayah: And to Allah belongs the east and the west. So wherever you [might]turn, there is the Face of Allah . Indeed, Allah is all-Encompassing and
Knowing. Surat Al-Baqarah:115. The placeof the Dome of the Rock is told to be the place from which the Prophet Muhammad
(pbuh) ascended to heaven at the night of Israa and Miraj, hence its importance. TheFirst Qibla of Islam was toward Bitul-Maqdis, which is now in Jerusalem. Muslims used to pray Salat towards
this Qibla, until this Ayat is revealed: We have certainly seen the turning of your face, [O Muhammad], towardthe heaven, and We will surely turn you to a qiblah with which you will be
pleased. So turn your face toward al-Masjid al-Haram. And wherever you
[believers] are, turn your faces toward it [in prayer]. Indeed, those who have
been given the Scripture well know that it is the truth from their Lord. And
Allah is not unaware of what they do 1 Thishadith From Anas (R.A) which is recorded in Sahih Muslim is saying this: Anas reported: The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) used topray towards Bait-ul-Maqdis, that it was revealed (to him):" Indeed We see
the turning of the face to heaven, wherefore We shall assuredly cause thee to
turn towards Qibla which shall please thee. So turn thy face towards the sacred
Mosque (Ka'ba)" (ii. 144). A person from Banu Salama was going; (he found
the people) in ruk'u (while) praying the dawn prayer and they had said one
rak'ah. He said in a loud voice: Listen! the Qibla has been changed and they
turned towards (the new) Qibla (Ka'ba) in that very state. Beforethe Quran came from Allah the Bible (new & old testament) came from Allah .
According to the old testament people were required to pray towards Jerusalem. Theorigin of this is based in the Bible as below... "If thy people go out to battle against theirenemy, whithersoever thou shalt send them, and shall pray unto the LORD toward
the city ( Jerusalem ) which thou hast chosen, and toward the house ( Baitul
Makdas ) that I have built for thy name" [ 1 Kings 8:44] SoMulsims were following that direction because that was the last known direction
of prayer given by Allah until He changed it in the Quran towards Mecca based on the verse
below... "From whencesoever Thou startest forth, turn Thyface in the direction of the sacred Mosque; that is indeed the truth from the
Lord. And Allah is not unmindful of what ye do." [Quran 2:149] DrZakir Naik: Why Islam Practices Qibla or Kaaba Idolatry? ...
The holy Prophet (peace be upon Him) smiled and said, "I ate all the
grapes by myself because the grapes were sour. If I would have offered you, you
might have made funny faces and that would have hurt the feelings of that poor
man. I thought to myself that it's better that I eat all of them cheerfully and
please the poor man. I did not want to hurt the feelings of that poor
man."
Such were the manners of prophet of Allah.
