Al-Hamdolellah, the Islamic board is back.

Makes us learn not to take anything for granted. May we always have a place to meet, learn and grow.

Jazakom Allahu Khairan

But we should think about people who woke up this morning and lost their house from war, or lost a family member, or something really important. We lost a few posts and reps. Alhamdulillah we are still well enough to come online and complain about losing our posts and reps! ;D

Seriously where did I leave the pitchforks?

Forum has gone back to October the 5th

The Database Crashed due to some issues meaning it was difficult to restore the data back - totally corrupted the data - pretty serious too

Since there are Daily, weekly and monthly backups, the problem was not discovered until after a few days which meant the daily backup data was corrupted and so was the weekly backup data corrupted - the only option we could go back to was the monthly back up taken on the 4/5th October of this month (Quite lucky alhumdulillah that we had that monthly backup or else it would have been disastrous)

Took a total of 36hours to restore the Entire forum back pretty hard work not that easy but its all back up alhumdulillah!

Unfortunately any data wont be able to be restored

Okay for those who didn't receive the email due to setting they made in their account I guess. Here it is:


IslamicBoard Restoration: Apologies!‏



Assalamu Alaykum Danah, We apologize for the inconvenience. We had some major technical difficulty on the forum, to the extent wherein we had to restore everything from October 5th. It really is a sad state of affairs, and we apologize for the inconvenience this has caused. It is also a setback for us as a forum, but Insha'Allah, there is a reason for everything and we should be positive about it. And to affirm you all, we have not been hacked in any way or form, Alhamdulillah. Just a fault upon myself (Rashad). Please forgive me. We hope you rejoin us on IslamicBoard. Your accounts should be fine. The new users probably have to re-register sadly. If you made a thread, please re-make it if you wish. Jazakumullahu Khair for participating on IslamicBoard. It is always a pleasure to open the forum doors to all the sincere seekers of knowledge and goodness. We sincerely hope you rejoin us once again and engage yourselves in useful and righteous discussion. May the peace and blessings of Allah Ta'ala be upon you all. Ameen! Rashad We have sent this e-mail to those who have opted not to receive e-mails from us just for this occasion. We will automatically opt back to your previous settings after this e-mail.

Out of trials there comes great lessons. I have learned a few things from this recent crash and got reminded of things I already knew or should have known.

1. Everything man made is temporary and in time does leave this world. Only Allaah(swt) is eternal.

2. Personal learning is more important than what others teach us.

3. If we truly learn something, we are not hurt if all reference work is lost. (The wisdom of the memorization of the Qur'an as a means of preservation)

4. No forum is more important then our own life and actions.

Yeah, I sort of stopped the e-mail 75% of it's completion of the mailing list because I got an urgent message saying that the forum was still incomplete at that point in time.

Alhamdulillah all is well now. Whew!

Credits due to MPADC. They've really been working hard. For the last few days, they spent nights working on the database etc. No kidding.
