Bismillah Ir-Rahman, Ir-Raheem. I begin with ALLAH's auspiciousness,whose Name is the Best among all the names. All Revences, All Sanctities and All Worships are due to ALLAH alone. Ashahadu An Laa illaaha illal llahu
Wa Ash Hadu Anna Muhammadan Abdu Hu Wa Rasooluhu
''I bear witness that there is no deity but Allah
who is without partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad (Peace be upon Him) is the Rasool.''
"O Allah, Shower Your Peace come upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, as you have brought peace to Ibrahim and his family.
Truly, You are Praiseworthy and Glorious. O Allah, Shower your blessing upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, as you have blessed Ibrahim and his family. Truly, You are Praiseworthy and Glorious". Iam Satisfied with Allâh as My Rabb and Cherisher,Iam Satisfied With Islam as My Din (religion) and I am satisfied with Muhammad as a Rasulallah (Messenger)sallallahu alaihi was salam) I seek Protection with ALLAH! With the Glorious and Noble Face of ALLAH! With the Complete and Perfect words of ALLAH! With the Exalted Attributes of ALLAH! From the Punishment of Hell; From chastisement in the Grave; From the Trial of Life and Death; From the Mischief of the dajjal. There is no power nor strength with (anyone) save Allah. ALLAH is Good and Only accept that which is Good. ALLAH is the Truth and only accept that which True. ALLAH is Pure and only accept that which is Pure. Ya ALLAH! ALL the praises are for You,You are the Holder of the Heavens and the Earth, And whatever is in them. Ya ALLAH! All praises are for You; You are are the Substaner of the Heavens and the Earth And whatever is in them. Ya ALLAH! All the praises are for you;You have the Possession of the Heavens and the Earth and whatever is in them. Ya ALLAH! All the praises are for You; You are Light (Nur) of the Heavens and Earth And whatever is in them. Ya A! LLAH!

Ya ALLAH! You have promise and Your promise is the truth,Ya ALLAH! You have promise and Your words is the truth, Ya ALLAH! You have promise and You are the Truth!. Ya ALLAH! You have created Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) to be the most truthful of men and what He(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) has said is the absolute truth!.............(As-salamu alaykum rahmatullahi barakatuh!)...........(Already it is quite clear that we are quite close to the fulfillment of Foreshadowing prophecy made by Rasulallah (sallallahu alayhi wasalam) . So much so then, for the spurious claims of propaganda(Deceitful claims) of the western world, They claim that mankind is witnessing unprecedented progress(only in technology and in ignorance)all the while the human condition is getting worse and worse ,they claim that the present is the best of all ages,Is this the age of technical enlightenment or the age of technical ignorance? they claim that the world keeps on growing better and better,and with the desperate condition of refugees people starving all over the world,how is it better? and that modern western world has rendered(relinquish and over turn) all previous world, including Islam,these claims are pure nonsense.!!!
When a ship is sinking do to negligence and carelessness and you cannot prevent it from sinking, you have to get off that ship, (This is the condition of the Western world) and urge others as well to do so. this is the Time for Hijah!!! The ship of the world is now sinking! The ship of morality is sinking, the ship of human dignity is sinking and the ship of human integrity is sinking. -The only life Boats are Pure Islam! The Holy Quran and the Sunnah of Rasulallah(Sallallahu alayhi wa salam ) there is No other life boats and the only places of safety are Mecca and Madinah. The evidence is all around us that this evil is growing stronger and stronger everyday, and the morals of men are getting weaker and weaker everyday it is as plainly visible as daylight! But those who are blind cannot see that the ship is sinking. They use their checkbooks, or the barrels of their guns, to impose themselves around the world as leaders.-- The rich, the powerful, arrogant and ignorant never achieve anything but disgrace! No matter how much they achieve in this worldly life it will amount to nothing but disgrace!
--- The blind arrogant then lead the blind ignorant until all are lost and will be drowned like the people of Noah (peace be upon him).in the flood waters of corruption ,immorality and filth.--------- Rasulallah(Sallallahu alayhi wa salam )said There will come a time when the one holding onto the religion will be like one grasping onto hot embers.”----Anas ibn Maalik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that Rasulallah(Sallallahu alayhi wa salam ) said: “There will come upon the people a time when holding onto the religion will be like holding onto hot coal.” (Tirmidhi)----In another narration, Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that Rasulallah(Sallallahu alayhi wa salam )said: “A time will come upon the people when the one who is patient (in them) in his religion (will be) like the one holding onto hot coal.” [Collected by Tirmidhi, authenticated by shaykh al-Albaani (rahimahullah). There is yet another (longer) version of this hadeeth collected by Imam Ahmad (rahimahullah) in his musnad.]----Its meaning is that there will come upon us (the ones holding onto our Din (religion) Trials, Tribulations, and Ordeals, which will hurt and harm us such that it will be as if we were holding onto hot coal. From the difficult conditions of our lives, of our patience with our Din (religion) and emaan, and our steadfastness upon it, it will be as if we were grasping hot embers due to the severity of the harms and hardships afflicted upon us; a time of trials and tribulations, a time where we will (sustain) harms from the enemies! And we seek refuge in Allah (from this)! And these are the (current conditions)that are happening now!. Thus, it is imperative that the ones who is of sound mind and Heart, if we are tried with this, that we be patient. And how many people have been tried in times of old with tribulations, in wars, and other than that (from those who have come) before us and during this time of ours? The point is that whoever is tested, whichever time we finds ourselves in, that we (must) be patient. Perhaps we may be tried by those who prevent us from praying or harm (harass) us when we prays, or we may tested by those who harm (harass) us when we fasts; then let us be patient, (and) fast even if in secret. So if we are harassed in this (i.e. our worship), it will not harm us. Pray, even if harassed; bear it with patience and do not give up our prayer, and so forth, and Allah’s help is sought and on the way! ALLAH-U-AKBAR!.----------This matter varies depending on the Muslim people or places (in question). Thus, in certain places the Muslim people might be severely persecuted in our Din (religion) such that we becomes like the ones holding onto hot embers. And in such circumstance, it is obligatory for us to make hijrah (migrate) to another land where there is freedom of Din (religion) and tranquility. (This is) Because the scholars have said that when someone is not able to openly practice his religion in the land of the disbelievers, then it is mandatory that he migrate to establish his religion. In certain lands, in this time of ours, you find that the people have total freedom in establishing religious rituals, openly practicing, and promoting them, therefore it is not possible for us to say whether the time that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) indicated refers to the present time that we find ourselves in, and to Allah belongs all praise. In some of the Muslim countries it is not possible (for one) to establish his religion in the way that Allah and His Messenger like it. Indeed. O Muslim People! We got to hold on to Islam even those it is a hot coal! And it --------------- (Al Quran, 28:5)The Holy Quran,The Words of ALLAH say :And we desired to bestow a favor upon those who were deemed weak in the land, and to make them the Imams (Leaders of mankind), and to make them the heirs.__The term "MAHDI" is a title meaning "The Guided one". Mahdi is a normal man who is going to follow the true Islam. His name will be Muhammad and his father name will be 'Abdullah. He is a descendant from Ali and Fatima (daughter of Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) so he will be descendant from al-Hasan or al-Husain. Mahdi will be very just and his capital will be Damascus. Allah told us that Jews will master the world two times and Mahdi will appear between those two periods and will rule through the last one. Mahdi is NOT a prophet but he is the final Rightly Guided Khalifa. As Muslims, we should remember that the prophecy about Mahdi is one that will come to pass. This prophecy, however, does not absolve the Muslim Ummah from its duty to strive in the cause of Allah, oppose injustice, and seek peace and betterment of human condition. Centuries have passes from the time of Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) and this is closer to that time of the Mahdi. Muslims who are negligent in their duty hoping for a savior are committing a grave mistake and are not following the divine decrees ordained in Quran or taught by the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh).
Abu Said Khadhri quoting Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam)saying, "I bring you glad tidings of Al-Mahdi, God shall send him to my nation, in a time different from your own, and after a series of earthquakes, and he shall fill the earth with justice and equity as it was filled with injustice and oppression. He shall distribute the wealth equitably among the inhabitants of the earth. We know from the prophecies of Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam)that the third major 'sinking of the earth', i.e., the one that would occur in Arabia, would swallow an army that would be heading south to Makkah. That army would be on its way to attack Imam al-Mahdi, the descendent ofRasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) . It was prophesied that he would restore the Islamic Caliphate (or Islamic model of a state) in the Arabian peninsula. It is after that sign has occurred (i.e., the third major earthquake) that the son of Mary would descend from the sky with his hands resting on the wings of two angels, and would kill Dajjal the False Messiah or Anti-Christ. The Qur'an itself has described Isa (i.e., the return of Isa) as the 'ilm (which here means the very key to the subject) of the Last Hour:
"And he (i.e., Isa) shall be a Sign (for the coming of) the Hour (of Judgment): therefore have no doubt about the (Hour), but follow Me: this is a Straight Way."
(Qur'an, Zukhruf, 43:61)
It follows that his return must come chronologically at the end of the list. We also know that the 'fire' from Yemen would follow the third earthquake. And so now that it appears that the major earthquake in the East has occurred, we await four more major signs that still remain to occur. When did the first six 'major' signs occur?
The Major Signs:
IMAAM MAHDI EMERGES
At age 40, Imaam Mahdi appears in Makkah, then flees to Madinah.
MUSLIM ARMY MARCHES
The army of Mansoor from Khurasaan will head towards Makkah to aid Imaam Mahdi. They will win many battles on the way. No force will be able to stop them. They will carry black flags.
SUFYAANI ARMY SWALLOWED BY THE EARTH.(The sufyaani is a title for the Tyrant that would spread corruption and mischief. )
The Sufyaani army (an Anti-Muslim force) from Syria singles out Imaam Mahdi for execution. On the way to Makkah, they get swallowed into the ground. A second Sufyaani army is created with 960,000 men (of 80 nations).
CONFRONTATION IN SYRIA
Imaam Mahdi and the Muslim army go to Syria to confront the Christians. The Christians, before the battle, will ask Muslims for the return of their prisoners-of-war. The Muslims will refuse. The battle will begin. One-third of Imaam Mahdi's army will flee (their repentance will not be accepted), one-third will be martyred, and one-third will gain victory over the Christians. MUSLIM ARMY UNDER IMAAM MAHDI CONQUERS PALESTINE
The Coming of the Great War! One Phase or Levels of the Great War, the Final War, the Last War! Is The War of Deception! Deception in war or the Strategy of Deception in war is not something new.
But the war of Deception is! This idea of the war of Deception is a war in it self. in the presence of a world deeply in need of reconnection itself with ALLAH its Creator, inThis time that Men are turning away from ALLAH, from their Creator, in this time of blind ignorance,blind arrogance, in This time of tyranny,cruelty,brutality and oppression,this is the time for the Good people of the world to stand up,and work toward turning this world around before it too Late! O Good people of the world!, O good people of America!,O Good Muslim people of the Muslim World! There is still Goodness in the World! There is still Goodness in People! there is still Goodness in many of the world Societies,So Let us ALL Reconnect ourselves with ALLAH(with God) our Creator. And let us reject and Turn away from this great evil and turn back to our Creator! Who created the heavens and the earth,there is but one Creator! This entire world Civilization,this entire Society is Sick! This is the time of the War of Deception! where you can not tell the Good People from the Bad People!,where you can not tell the difference between the righteous from the wicked!,Where Men are standing in the Prayer line and their Hearts and actions is against Islam and against the Muslims people,they are saing that they believe in ALLAH but they are doing everything they can to bring disgrace on Islam!. But there are, among men, those who purchase idle tales, without knowledge (or meaning), to mislead (men) from the Path of Allaah and throw ridicule (on the Path): for such there will be a humiliating Penalty. When Our Signs are rehearsed to such a one, he turns away in arrogance, as if he heard them not, as if there were deafness in both his ears: announce to him a grievous Penalty." ( Luqmaan: 6-7.) There are thousand of people in the boundary of Islam, and they are against the Sunnah of Rasulullah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam)And In this time! they come haven been trained and Education to be the Enemies of Islam. , they are pretending to be muslim.those kind of Sick Trashe people whom ALLAH has curse have creep in to every masjid in thourghout the Muslim world and in every position, these hypocrites and Disbelieving people are tring to blend in,or trying to hid but they cannot hided the curse of ALLAH that is on their Faces and they cannot hide the curse of ALLAH that is in their Actions and they cannot hide the curse of ALLAH that is in(on)their Hearts, ALLAH has got HELL ready for them and All who follow them in their war of deception,These hypocrites and Disbelieving people have study the working in creation and have come to the realization that ALLAH donot intervene in the Evil that men intened to do. ALLAH has gived them respite, as He has given respite to satan, and so they think that ALLAH has permitted them to do any thing in this Life,in this war of deception without restriction, If the Actions of men has been already written He(ALLAH)will permitted it to be bad or Good, Rasulallah(sallallahu alaihi was salam) clarified this point to Ibn Abbaas saying:"...If the whole nation were to gather together to benefit you they would only benefit you with that which Allaah had already written for you and if the whole nation were to gather to harm you they could only harm you with that which Allaah had already written to harm you. The pen has been lifted and the ink has dried (a phrase meaning: everything has been decreed or settled)". [At-Tirmithi] Rasulallah(sallallahu alaihi was salam) has said in one of his treasured speeches, introduced the hypocrites as Islam's most dangerous enemy. He even said that they were Islam's only enemy. The following is the text of His(sallallahu alaihi was salam) speech: "I have never been frightened of any nation conquering Islam. I only worry about one group of people: the unbelievers who pretend to be Muslim, the two-faced hypocrites. They are with you in their words, but they would never take a step with you.
There were also others who stand in the shadow with those, who had outwardly accepted Islam but secretly worked to destroy the Din from within. Generally speaking, the most dangerous enemy is an unknown one in the shadows. A known enemy, no matter how powerful he is, causes less damage than an unknown enemy does. In addition, the damage caused by a known enemy can be made up for. The reason is that the enemy is identified, his bad intentions are clear, his strength is recognized and his goals are well-known.
On the other hand, the unknown enemy, however small and powerless he may be able to cause serious damage because he pretends to be a friend or he is staning where he can not be seen, and pretends to be indifferent. He can cause irreconcilable damage and at the same time not lose anything. Such an enemy will remain where he cannot be seen or even if his bad intentions are made clear,he remain unseen, but his actions are seen. The reason for this is that know one can see the Evil that this enemy is doing. . This enemy will then persist with his evil deeds. Never In the history of mankind have the Humanbeing ever seen such wickness as we are seeing now in the war of deception! ibn al-Yaman said, "People used to ask Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam, about good things, but I used to ask him about bad things because I was afraid that they might overtake me. I said, ' Ya Rasulallah!, we were lost in ignorance (jahiliyyah) and evil, then Allah brought this good (i.e. Islam). Will some evil come after this good thing?' He said, 'Yes' I asked, 'And will some good come after that evil?' He said, 'Yes, but it will be tainted with some evil' I asked, 'How will it be tainted?' He said, 'There will be some people who will lead others on a path different from mine. You will see good and bad in them.' I asked, 'Will some evil come after that good?' He said, 'Some people will be standing and calling at the gates of Hell; whoever responds to their call, they will throw him into the Fire.' I said, 'Ya Rasulallah, describe them for us.' He said, 'They will be from our own people, and will speak our language.' I asked, 'What do you advise me to do if I should live to see that?' He said, 'Stick to the main body (jama'ah) of the Muslims and their leader (imam).' I asked, What if there is no main body and no leader?' He said, 'Isolate yourself from all of these sects, even if you have to eat the roots of trees until death overcomes you while you are in that state.' One of the Most Biggest and the Most Dangerous of Secret Enemies in the war of deception are those jews who pretend to be Muslim who are over Masjids and in every position,they know the Arabic Language, and they use it as a tool to incite hated and bitterness by stiring up the Muslims against each other and instigting mistrust and racial tension among the Muslims,And These are the same people who are responsible for the setting up, frameing,the Imprisonment and the Deaths of many Muslims throughout america, the reason being that the Muslims disagreed with these Fakes,these Phonies,these Hypocrites and these ignorant Kafiras who pretend to be Muslim,About the way they presented Islam to america and to the world and as a result of their disagreement they (the Muslims)were setup,frames,imprisoned and killed. In this War of Deception there are Christians and Jews who have open up SoCall Masjids throughout america trying to deceive the muslims by mixing islam with christianity and twisting the truth. there are many christians and those jews who pretend to be Muslim they know the arabic language, and know how to twist it,But the christians donot know Islam,they mix it with chritianity (but the jews they have studies Islam)they have learn the language to deceive the Muslims and trying to hide among the Muslims with the intention of corrupting as many muslims as they can with tickes, in this time of deception a Muslim come to the Masjid for Prayer and complete his prayer then set down and talks with a person whom he think is a muslim, but in reality this person is a spy for the Enemey! and this is one of their ticks, the ticke is to make the socall masjid beautiful and attractive like a a fisherman Net, or A Snare used as a trapping device design to capture the believing Muslims.
Also in this war of Deception there are The socall modern muslims these are the people who are openly against the Sunnah, who are doing everything they can to compromise islam, and in trying to design islam in away that it will be acceptable to the west.
If the ignorant people of the west who claim knowledge rejected some part of Islam ,then the ignorant socall Muslim rejected too! When ALLAH call a people ignorant, they are Ignorant! No matter how technologically advance a society or Nations is they are Ignorant!
In the Name of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful. The Philosophy of the Ignorance.
"Is it (then that) the judgement of (the time of pagan) ignorance they desire?
And who (else) can be better than Allah to judge for a people of assure faith."(theQuran:5:50) The Holy Qur'an has told us about other nations with capabilities in science, engineering, and skills. Still, it regarded them as 'jahiliyah' (ignorant).
6. The Qur'an describes nature as equal among nations of 'jahiliyah'. In the Qur'anic viewpoint, all of these nations were ignorant. We are able to understand this equality clearly through the comparison which the Qur'an has made between the backward state of Arabs and the developed state of nations before them.
Allah, the Exalted, says:
"What! have they not travelled in the earth and seen how was the end of those before them? They were more (in number) than those and mightier in strength, and greater are the relics (of their power) in the earth, but availed them not what they were earning. And when came unto them their apostles with clear proofs (of their truthfulness), exalted they in what they had with them of knowledge, but encompassed them that which they were wont to scoff."
"Have they travelled not in the earth and seen how was the end of those before them? They were stronger than them in strength; and they dug up the earth and built on it more than what these did build; and there came unto them their apostles with clear proofs (miracles); (for) it is not Allah Who should do them (any) injustice, but they did injustice to their own selves. Then evil was the end of those who wrought evil, for belied they the signs of Allah, and at them they used to mock."
Holy Qur'an (30:9-10)
"And how many of the generations We did destroy before them, they were (even) better in riches and in splendor. Say you (O Our Apostle Muhammad) As to those who are in error, the Beneficent (Allah) will certainly lengthen the span (of their) life; until they behold what they were promised, be it the chastisement (in this world) or the Hour (of Doom); Then shall they know who is worse placed and (who is the) weakest in forces!"
Holy Qur'an (19:74-75)
In this manner, the Qur'an has revealed the depth and content of those nations to stress that scientific development of man and his civil advancement are not able to save him from the claws of deviation and take him out of the fangs of ignorance as long as he embellishes ignorant faith and embodies the same abnormal ignorant behavior of the general society.
Although these ignorant deviated nations are scattered throughout history and The Present day,they are different in scientific and civil levels, they share common factors. One mental state combines them together and unifies their deviated course.Allah, the Exalted, says:
"And those (pagans) who have no knowledge say: 'Why does not Allah speak to us or a sign come to us?' Even thus said those before them, the like of what they say; their hearts are alike; We have indeed made clear the signs to people who are certainly sure." (the Holy Qur'an(2:118)This similarity among the hearts of the deviated nations and in many of todays peoples and the unity of the mental trend, which the Qur'an has revealed, is the common line which identifies all aspects of the pre-Islamic period and the present day standards of ignorance and is the center from which all activities of the ignorant man begins.
This similarity is the factor forming the identity and personality of all Ignorant nations. Also this description may be applied to all stages of human history especially the present day people whose generations have evolved into a devious and deviated system and refused to follow the straight path of truth and peace-the straight path of ALLAH the law of the Rabb of all the worlds, and the message of salvation.

The real muslim tries to live a life that is acceptable before ALLAH, and if it is acceptable before ALLAH! Because he the real muslim is living his Din with knowledge and faith, so he doesn't worry about what men think.( These Socall Modern muslims) These are the People who will be the first to reject the inspired leadership that ALLAH has ordained for the Muslims world, Because this Divinely inspired Leadership doesn't Compromise Islam,And they will say that this leadership is very close to the sunnah of Rasulullah(sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) and because they will say that this Leadership donot wear a suit and tie and that this leadership has not cut his beard back or they will say that leadership is the wrong color!(he's too light! or he's too dark! ) (This is their Justification for rejecting divine guidance).And Also These are some of the same people who are responsible for the setting up, frameing,the Imprisonment and the Deaths of many Muslims throughout america, the reason being that the Muslims disagreed with these Fakes,these Phonies,these Hypocrites and these ignorant Kafiras who pretend to be Muslim,About the way they presented Islam to america and the world and as a result of their disagreement they (the Muslims)were setup,frames,imprisoned and killed. In This time where the most wicked of men will appear to be righteous and the Good people will appear to be wicked.in this time there are Men who are possess by Jinns and Shaytaning and can not get Free! because they are effected by Powerful Black magic! O Muslim people. I am Nobody in your sights! but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to have a little insight,!(insight is a gifts from ALLAH!)just like a person standing in the middle of a forest calling out!and people are saying "O do not listen to him, he thinks he is somebody!or he's trying to be somebody!Where are the wise people of the Din of ALLAH?, The wise people of Islam? If these things were not going on then there wouldnot be any reason to say anything about them!If anyone feels that what has been said is wrong or there has been a injustice by what has been said then they should come out in the open, and address these issues!
But What ever ALLAH ordained is for as long He (ALLAH) will it,Whatever Allah wills, will happens and whatever He does not will does not happen. It is the Will of ALLAH that The("Divinely guided one appear) The Mahdi
And the Leadership of Isa(alayhi salam)Come into Existence. No believer will question the fact that Allah has wills that Isa(alayhi salam) and the Mahdi will leaded the Muslim world. Isa(alayhi salam) will be as Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam)Describe Him. Then Hazrat Isa (alayhi salaam) will come down from the Minaret of the Mosque with two Angel. Hazrat Isa (alayhi salaam) will be wearing yellow clothes. Both his hands will be on the wings of Angels.
When Hazrat Isa (alayhi salaam) lowered his head down, from his head, drops of water will fall as if they were diamonds. And when he puts his head up, water drops will fall as if they were diamonds. Imam Mahdi and the Muslims will recognise Hazrat Isa (alayhi salaam) from this sign. The people will have congregated for the prayer and Imam Mahdi will see Hazrat Isa (alayhi salaam). Imam Mahdi will request Hazrat Isa (alayhi salaam) to lead the prayer, but Hazrat Isa (alayhi salaam) will say, "You lead the prayer." Imam Mahdi will lead the Salaat (prayer).
After the Salaat, Imam Mahdi and Hazrat Isa (alayhi salaam) and the other Muslims will come out from the Mosque. Outside the gates of the Mosque, Dajjal will be waiting with his army. When he will see Hazrat Isa (alayhi salaam), he will feel as though his body will dissolve and he will start to run away, but Hazrat Isa (alayhi salaam) will catch him and kill Dajjal at a place called Baab-ul-ludd (an airport in Israel). A fight will start between the Jews and Muslims. The Jews will start to run away but they will not be able to hide. When a Jew hides behind a rock, the rock will call the Muslim soldiers out and say: "There is a Jew hiding behind me, kill him!" If a Jew hides behind a tree trunk, the tree will call to a Muslim soldier saying, "There is a Jew hiding behind me. Kill him". Everything will talk except a tree called Gharqad, which will not tell a Muslim if a Jew is hiding behind it. This tree is very holy for the Jews.
In this way Dajjal and his followers will be killed. And Hazrat Isa (alayhi salaam) will kill Dajjal. After his death, there will be peace. Hazrat Isa (alayhi salaam) and Imam Mahdi will start visiting places, and they will meet those people who refused to believe in Dajjal. They will be satisfied with them and will satisfy them by giving them glad tidings of Heaven. After this the people will have a good life.
Sometime will pass, then Imam Mahdi will pass away. At that time, his age will be of fifty years. Hazrat Isa (alayhi salaam) will offer his funeral prayer and bury him. Imam Mahdi will have ruled for nine years. After that, Hazrat Isa (alayhi salaam) will stay with the people and will rule the world. During his reign, Ya'jooj Ma'jooj will appear.
Why are they silent ? Why are They not standing up as a collective body of peoople against this powerful Evil(the dajjal)he is the Enemy of ALLAH! he is the Enemy of ALLAH!he is the Enemy of ALLAH!. This is the Time to Stand up against this Evil be for It dominate the world!. Islam is the only force strong enough to stand between the dajjal and total world domination. (The War of Deception) In this war of deception, The decevers They have travel from every corner of the World and from every corner of the Muslim World,the call was made for them to come to their Leader, just like when Pharaoh called for all the magicians in egypt to come to him, they sent for every Fake,every phoney, Every hypocrites,and , every ignorance kafira pretending to be a muslim; and Sorcerers and magicians to come and serve and worship the Enemy of ALLAH, the real(The Anti-Christ) dajjal ,These are same people that the Governments from around the World use as their secret agents against Islam in this war of deception, because they have arabic names and they come from socall muslim countrys and These are also the people who are trying to destroy the Purity of Islam through their Evil deception , they are trying to run muslims away from the worship of ALLAH, and if they can not destroy our faith as a True Believing Muslim,they seek to destroy our character,our Dignity, our Honor and our Integrity as Muslims; and then they seek to destroy us as Men or as Human beings. The Enemies of ALLAH are well informed about Islam, and they know what Islam call for. These secret enemies standed in the ranks in the salat lines with us; and they study islam as we the Believing muslims do, but their Hearts are cold and sick and they have an allegiance and Loyalty to the Dajjal. Dajjal is an Arabic word, derived from the root "dajl." Dictionaries define dajjal as the name given to the Anti-Christ,the Deceiver"liar, fraud, a seditious,referring to something covered with Tar and damned person who confuses the minds, hearts, good and bad, the right and the wrong, one who hides,denies and covering up the Truth, the one who tells lies and deceives many people,and travel all over the world. The hadiths of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam)
refer to the dajjal as the greatest Evil force to appear in the End of Times. The dajjal, who will attempt to impose the system of satan over the entire world, in the End Times when extraordinary events take place, by means of enmity towards Isa(alayhi salam) and Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh), whose appearance we will soon see by Allah's leave. the dajjal himself is the worst deniers of all time. Our Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) describes the dimension of the corruption of the dajjal as follows:There would be no creation (creating more trouble) than the dajjal right from the creation of Adam to the Last Hour.1 The corruption of the dajjal in the End Times will be very severe...It is narrated in traditions that the dajjal is a deceiver who portrays truth as falsehood and falsehood as truth, and good as bad, and bad as good. As we are told in the hadith "He [the dajjal] would bring along with him an image of paradise and hell-fire and what he would call as paradise that would be in reality hell-fire, everything he calls good, beautiful and right is actually is a great evil that will inflict disaster on humanity. And that which he depicts as evil will actually be of beneficial and in the interests of humanity. Yet since many,many people do not look at events in the light of the moral values of the Qur'an and the Sunnah of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) ,they will be deceive,trick,misled by the things to which the dajjal invites them and they will follow him, while heedlessly turning their backs on the path of Allah, turning away from their Creator, turning away from what is right, which they should actually follow. They will see what a grave error they have made when it is to late, however! when they witness the climate of Tyranny, oppression, cruelty and brutality,the dajjal will establish in his system of socall world government. It is for these reasons that our Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) has warned mankind and told people to act in the knowledge that what the dajjal portrays as evil is in fact good and what he portrays as good is in fact Evil:he(the dajjal has appear!!!. And there is along with him water and fire. What the people will see as water will be burning fire. And what will appear as fire will be water. Any one of you who will see that should plunge in that which he sees as fire for it will be sweet, pure water. The corruption of the dajjal can be felt everywhere all over the World, as if the world is falling into a mental deep frozen. Hopelessness Lovelessness- state of being without love for anything), conflict and evil are spreading around the world. As can be seen from the many various signs in the hadiths and with our own Eyes, The period we are in is that Time! the "End of Times, The time of the dajjal. It is clear from the hadiths of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) that the End of Times are taking place and unfolding before our very eyes now! and by Allah's leave, the return to Earth of Isa (alayhi salam) and the appearance of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh) are also to be expected in this period. Just as we are told in the hadiths, the dajjal is making his corruption felt in the world at this very time we are living in, and Hopelessness, lovelessness, rebellion, evil, division, conflicts and degeneration are spreading across the world. Many people have gone along with the corruption of the dajjal, turned their backs on proper moral values and accepted a devilish system based on disbelief. The dajjal is decepting people by portraying good as evil and evil as good, and is prepare the way for all forms of disorder. The corruption of the dajjal of at this Time period will also manifest itself as famine, shortages and economic disasters. One of the greatest corruption of the dajjal in this Time, in ideological terms, is Darwinism(the Tick) this is a part of the war of Deception. Darwinist ideology, the worst fallacy of the 19th century, was initially criticized. But it spread throughout society during the 20th century under the influence of the Followers of dajjal,Who has misled vast masses of people into believing in it, gathered a great deal of support, and ultimately found its way into schools and textbooks and scientific literature. There has been no scientific evidence in favor of the theory of evolution, and it is impossible for there to be any; but since Darwinism is a false belief system, then false evidence is constantly produced to support the theory, and the real scientific evidence that repudiates evolution is covered up and Hidden. The scale of this fraud is truly enormous and unimaginable. As a perverted and false belief system based on denial of Allah, Darwinism is a known deception of the dajjal's, and one expected in the End of Time according to what is revealed in the hadiths. Darwinism, the main source of racism and which seeks to convince people that man is merely an uncontrolled animal, is one of the worst snares of the dajjal. Hopelesness,Lovelessness, ruthlessness and disrespecting others as human beings are the result of regarding one's own race as superior. This false belief system, The War of Deception, which claims that living things came into being by chance, which maintains that apes are the ancestors of human beings, which seeks to convince human beings they are aimless animals with no Purpose,no responsibilities, which has led to mass slaughter and has initiated wars through the twisted idea that the strong must crush the weak, and which regards human beings as worthless and inferior, this is deceit,this is actually Darwinism, one of the dajjal's worst plots. However, having persisted for the last 150 years, The dajjal's Evil plot has just begain to unfold,Mass deception will not come to an end until he is destroy.
This False ideology adopted like religion, has not been crushed yet. The true Din(religion) of Allah Islam will Prove more powerful than the opposing forces of Evil. There is no doubt that Allah will make His Din Islam prevail. Our Rabb reveals in one verse:
Allah confirms the Truth by His words,
even though the evildoers hate it.
(Surah Yunus, 82)
Say: 'It is He(ALLAH) Who brought you into being and gave you hearing, sight and hearts. What little thanks you show!'
(Surat al-Mulk, 23) The most evident corruption of the End of Times caused by the dajjal is his opposition to Islam. Various humanist views and values that has appear now in this Times is attempting to replace religion. This new religion is baseing itself upon disbelief in order to eradicate all forms of Divine hegemony over mankind... It is an irreligious faith whose basic god is matter and man.5 (Surely Allah is beyond that.) Allah says in one verse:Say: "Shall I tell you of a reward with Allah far worse than that: that of those whom Allah has cursed and with whom He is angry – turning some of them into monkeys and into pigs – and who worshiped false deities? Such people are in a worse situation and further from the right way." (Surat al-Ma'ida, 60) we must continual to Pray WholeHeartedly against these deceptive enemies of ALLAH. when will the help of ALLAH come? The affliction of this Jewish Messiah is so great that none from the times of Prophet Adam till the day of resurrection have or will create and spread that much affliction. His affliction will be so dangerous and subtle so harmful that there is no Prophet of Allah who did not warn his ummah about the coming of this creature. The Dajjal will be able to deceive the very elect, the very pious, the one who thinks he or she has faith in their hearts, because he will appear inconspiuous,Never seen in public,but Walking among the Muslims in silent for years, in and out of the Masjids,his silent has been a shield for him but no longer he is seen and recognized and people looking in his face and not saying anything knowing that that is the dajjal without a doubt,"blind in one eye and the other eye looking like a protruding grape" All of this is takeing place in Houston Tx.where the most wicked of Men in the U.S. Live,some of them are so wicked that they want to be worship they have become minor dajjals and others so wicked that they worship satan and these are the ones that have conspire with the secret societys of the world against Islam,and all these people are staning in the ranks of the Prayer line in the Masjids. this is where he(the dajjal) is working on many people in their sleep or I should say he is attacking many people in their sleep.(REMEMBER THE DAJJAL IS THE ENEMY OF ALLAH THERE IS NO DOUBT). Another means of protection from deviation is to hasten to persistently perform good deeds with sincerity to Allaah before trials take place. Rasulallah(sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam) said, "Hasten in performing good deeds before the time comes when trials would be as dark as nights; a man would wake up a Muslim and go to sleep a disbeliever, and go to sleep as a Muslim and wake up a disbeliever" (Muslim).
the dajjal is a man whose full title is Al-Maseeh (The Messiah) Ad-Dajjal, (The Liar/Deceiver). Usually just referred to as the Dajjal, he is a bizarre character whose description,There are numerous hadith that contain descriptions of the Dajjal. Here we will just touch on the most common of these traditions to give an overview of just who this mysterious and strange person is.
The Dajjal is described as being a deceiver who will have miraculous powers and who will temporarily hold power over the whole earth:
Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam)was warning us that in the last days there would be someone who would deceive all of humanity. The Dajjal will possess power over this world. Thus, Muslims must be careful not to have the love of the world in their hearts so they won't leave their religion and follow him. He will be able to heal the sick by wiping his hand on them, like Jesus did, but with this deceit the Dajjal will lead people down the path to hell. Thus the Dajjal is the false Messiah, or Anti-Christ (Massih ad-Dajjal). He will pretend to be the Messiah, and deceive people by showing them amazing powers.
Possibly the most frequently quoted reference to the Dajjal is that he is blind in one eye. The Hadith however, are contradictory regarding which eye is blind:Ibn Umar reported that Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). made a mention
of Dajjal in the presence of the people and said: ... ... and behold that Dajjal is blind of
the RIGHT eye and his eye would be like a floating grape.Hudhalfa reported that Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam)said: Dajjal is
blind of LEFT eye with thick hair and there would be a garden and fire with him and his
fire would be a garden and his garden would be fire. Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam)said, "Allah is not hidden from you; He is not one-eyed," and pointed with his hand towards his eye, adding, "While Al-Masih Ad-Dajjal is blind in the right eye and his eye looks like a protruding grape."The fact is that both the eyes of the Dajjal would be defective.He would be blind in the right eye and his left eye would be like a floating grape.
The dajjal will claim to be god, most Muslims have deduced that the Dajjal will thus claim to be Jesus Christ by name.
Muslim Scholar Muhammad Ali ibn Zubair Ali says of the Dajjal, " He will travel at great speeds and his means of conveyance will be a giant mule... He will travel the entire world."
It is said that there are three cities that the Dajjal may not enter; Mecca, Medina and Damascus. Muslims are encouraged to seek refuge from the Dajjal in one of these three cities:
Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam)said, "Ad-Dajjal will come to Medina and find the angels guarding it. So Allah willing, neither Ad-Dajjal, nor plague will be able to come near it." 10
The coming of the Anti-Christ (Dajjal) must occur in the Last Days. This dreadful event is approaching, and in that time only three cities will be safe: Makka, Madina, and Sham (Damascus). If anyone wants safety in that time he will have to run to one of these three cities. Apart from these three cities, it is said that the Dajjal will enter every single city, town and village in the world to test and possibly deceive every human alive.
Muslims believe that if they memorize a particular portion of the Quran that they will be protected from the Dajjal. It is somewhat like a verbal amulet that protects one from the powers of evil: If the Dajjal comes upon someone who has memorized the first ten verses of Surat al Kahf (Chapter of the Cave) he cannot harm him. And whoever memorizes the last verses of Surat al-Kahf will have light on the day of Judgement. 13
Based on various Islamic traditions, Muslims believe that the Dajjal will be Jewish. The title of a book by Muslim author Matloob Ahmed Qasmi, Emergence of the Dajjal, the Jewish King couldn't make this point more clearly. Imam Sheikh Ibrahim Madhi of the Palestinian Authority articulated the Islamic perspective regarding the expectation of the Jewish people quite well in one of his sermons: The Jews await the false Jewish messiah, while we await, with Allah's help... the Mahdi and Jesus, peace be upon him. Jesus's pure hands will kill the false Jewish messiah. Where? In the city of Lod, in Palestine. Palestine will be, as it was in the past, a graveyard for the invaders. the Dajjal that he will be, "the embodiment of the Jewish hope and longing. The bulk of his army is recruited from the Jews. the Dajjal that he will be, "the embodiment of the Jewish hope and longing. The bulk of his army is recruited from the Jews .
As mentioned in the last chapter, the followers of the Dajjal will primarily consist of Jews and women. It is mentioned that women are very ignorant and as such are easily misled. Veliankode states, "Meanwhile, women will also fall to the deviant line of the Antichrist because of their unawareness and ignorance of Islam." 16
) has narrated that Muhammad Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam)said, the son of Maryam, Isa(alayhi salam)
will kill the Dajjal at the door of LUD." Imam Tirmidhi(d.279/857) then said "This is an authentic Hadith."
Imam Muslim (d.261/839) has narrated from Abu Hurayrah , that he heard Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) saying,
"The Last Hour would not come until the Romans would land at al-A'maq or in Dabiq. An army consisting of the best (soldiers) of the people of the earth at that time will come from Madina (to counterattack them). When they will arrange themselves in ranks, the Romans would say, "Do not stand between us and those (Muslims) who took prisoners from amongst us. Let us fight with them;" and the Muslims would say, "Nay, by Allah, we would never get aside from you and from our brethren that you may fight them." They will then fight and a third (part) of the army would run away, whom Allah will never forgive. A third (part of the army), which would be constituted of excellent martyrs in Allah's eye, would be killed and the third who would never be put to trial would win and they would be conquerors of Constantinople. And as they would be busy in distributing the spoils of war (amongst themselves) after hanging their swords by the olive trees, the Satan would cry, "The Dajjal has taken your place among your family." They would then come out, but it would be to no avail. And when they would come to Syria, he would come out while they would be still preparing themselves for battle drawing up the ranks. Certainly, the time of prayer shall come and then the son of Maryam, Isa(alayhi salam)would descend and would lead them to prayer. When the enemy of Allah(the dajjal) would see him(alayhi salam), He would (disappear) just as the salt dissolves itself in water and if he the son of Maryam, Isa(alayhi salam)were not to confront them at all, even then it would dissolve completely, but Allah would kill them by His hand and He would show them their blood on his lance (the lance of, Isa(alayhi salam)."
Imam Muslim (d.261/839) has narrated from Abdullah bin Amr, who has reported that a person came to him and said, "What is this Hadith that you narrate that the Last Hour would come at such and such time?" Thereupon he said, "be devoted exclusively to Allah, there is no god but Allah (or the words to the same effect). I have decided that I would not narrate anything to anyone now. I had only said that you would see after some time an important event that the (sacred) House (Ka'ba) would be burnt and it would happen and definitely happen." He then reported that Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) said,
"The Dajjal would appear in my Ummah and he would stay (in the world) for forty (I cannot say whether he meant forty days, forty months or forty years) and Allah would then send the son of Maryam, Isa(alayhi salam)who would resemble 'Urwa bin Mas'ud. He (the son of Maryam, Isa(alayhi salam) would chase him(the dajjal) and kill him. Then people would live for seven years that there would be no rancour between two persons. Then Allah would send cold wind from the side of Syria that none would survive upon the earth having a speck of good in him or faith in him but he would die, so much so that even if some amongst you were to enter the innermost part of the mountain, this wind would reach that place also and that would cause his death."
These Hadiths prove that while the approach of The Day of Judgement is certain it is bound to be preceded by the descent of the son of Maryam, Isa(alayhi salam) along with other signs. The Day of Judgement is not conceivable without his(alayhi salam) appearance before it. Secondly, each one of the pre-indications including the descent of the son of Maryam, Isa(alayhi salam), is a highly unusual event in itself.
It is obvious that the tremendous catastrophe of the ending of the Universe must be preceded by happenings of that nature. The attempt to bring these events in line with ordinary natural phenomena by esoteric explanations is to confess ignorance of the surrounding realities of the Day Of Resurrection. In one sense the attempt amounts to a veiled denial of the final event itself.
If the co-related signs of The Day of Judgement are not acceptable to sceptical minds, then the major event is of the same category to them and beyond their comprehension.
Sensible persons will do well to ponder over the matter with a cool mind as in the traditions the event of descent of the son of Maryam, Isa(alayhi salam) has been put down as one of the nearest precursors of the Last Day. It should be considered as part and parcel of the major happening with which the world is bound to be confronted.
The following is the description of that creature called Dajjal whose killing has been foretold by Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam).
As the Chief of Jews, Dajjal will first of all show himself off as a very holy man, then he will claim prophethood, next he will claim to be God. He will be one-eyed and Kafir or Ka-fa-ra will be inscribed on his forehead which every literate and illiterate Muslim shall be able to decipher. He will make his own paradise and hell. Seventy thousand Jews of Esfahan will accompany him. He will appear forth from the middle of Iraq and Syria and raise mischief right and left. For forty days he will cause turmoil in the world. First day of the forty shall be equivalent to one year and second day to one month and third day to one week and all the remaining days shall be of normal duration. He will travel fast like wind behind clouds. People out of fear will go into mountains.
Allah will give Dajjal leeway and capacity to rouse people to rebellion. Before his appearance there will be three exacting years, in the first of which rainfall will be less by one-third of the normal, leading to a shortfall of one-third in grain production; rains in the second year will be less by two-thirds, resulting in a shortfall of grain by two-thirds, until in the third year there will be no growth as not one drop of rain will fall. Beasts and cattle will die on account of severe famine and drought. On the other hand, rain will fall on lands of those persons who would have reposed their faith in Dajjal. Therefore, their lands shall have vegetation and cattle shall return from pastures with filled bellies; those having no faith in him will be indigent and their cattle destroyed.
When Dajjal shall go over desolate places, he will order the land to throw its treasures out; consequently treasures will emerge and accompany him. He will tell a Bedouin, "If I bring your dead camels to life will you have faith in me?" He will reply, "Certainly!" Then, devils, appearing as camels, shall come before him. He will think that his camels have really become alive. Thus, bound by spells, he will believe in Dajjal as God. Similarly Dajjal will tell a person, "If I bring your father and brother back to life, will you believe in me?" He will say "Certainly"! Then he will go to the graves of his father and brother and there, devils with appearances of his father and brother, will come out to him and say, "Yes, this is God and do believe in him.". In this way, Dajjal, will mislead humanity and only Allah's chosen people will not be influenced by his deceit and trickery. Therefore the Prophet ordered, that on hearing about Dajjal's appearance people should run away from him.
At last Dajjal will turn towards Madinah Tayyibah. but will not be able to enter Madinah and will encamp behind the mountain of Uhad. Then, angels of Allah, the Exalted, will turn his direction towards the country of Syria and having gone there, he will perish.
At the time when Dajjal will be heading towards Syria, Imam Mahdi will be busy fighting a holy war with Christians on the front of Constantinople. Hearing that Dajjal had emerged, he would return to the country of Syria and will assemble his troops for a battle. At the time of 'Fajr' salat, when the congregation will be in a standing position before the start of prayers, Hazrat Isa (alayhis sallam) will descend. Imam Mahdi will bring him forward to lead prayers and will himself go behind, but Hazrat Isa will order him to lead. After finishing prayers, Hazrat Isa (alayhis sallam) will go out to face Dajjal. Dajjal will run off upon seeing Hazrat Isa(alayhis sallam) and will start melting like lead. Hazrat Isa (alayhis sallam) will overtake him at Bab-e-Lud (at present under Israeli possession) and kill him.
All these Hadiths give the image of Isa(alayhis sallam) eschatological role as a contender of Dajjal.

There is a deceptive war going on against Muslims and Islam. Certainly Muslim people are among those suffering from war in all parts of the world as world powers and different groups seek control. There is also the war of words as people speak for or against Islam, and there are even Muslims fighting Muslims. Allaah has forbidden treachery and has condemned those who do it. Allaah says They are those with whom you made a covenant, but they break their covenant every time and they do not fear Allaah" [al-Anfaal 8:56] And the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "Every betrayer will have a banner on the Day of Resurrection, by which he will be known." (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 6966; Muslim, 1736) And it was narrated that Maalik said: "I heard that 'Abd-Allaah ibn 'Abbaas said: 'There is no people who betrays their covenant but Allaah gives their enemies power over them." (al-Muwatta', Baab ma jaa'a fi'l-wafa' bi'l-'ahd) Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: "War is deceit." (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 3029; Muslim, 58).ALLAH is the Best knower!

Surah Al-Baqarah, when translated from Arabic, means “The Cow”. Revealed in Madinah, it is the second chapter of the Noble Quran. It also happens to the longest chapter in the Quran and contains 286 verses. The last two verses of Surah al-Baqarah are rich in meaning and highly virtuous. The final two verses predominantly focus on religious obligations, and man’s relationship with the Creator.These last two verses of Surah al-Baqarah (Surah al-Baqarah 285-286) begin by stating that Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) and the believers have believed in Allah’s revelation. Then, Allah mentions a number of the articles of faith (Belief in Allah, His angels, books, and messengers), and that we don’t differentiate between the messengers. Also, Allah mentions hearing and obeying Allah, seeking His forgiveness, and the fact that the final destination is to Him. Allah stated that He doesn’t burden anyone beyond what they can handle, and each soul will be rewarded and punished based on its good and bad deeds.

The believers than call on Allah to not assign blame to them for forgetfulness or erring and ask him to not burden them like those who preceded them were burdened. They also ask Allah not to burden them beyond their capacity, and grant them forgiveness and mercy. Finally, they ask Allah, who is their protector, to grant them victory over the disbelievers. The benefits of the last two verses of Surah al-Baqarah

In Sahih Muslim, we find that two lights were given to Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam), which had not been given to any Prophet prior to him. They are Surah al-Fatihah and the finishing Ayat of Surah al-Baqarah.
As stated in this authentic Hadith, the last 2 Ayat of Surah Baqarah have tremendous benefits. Indeed, Allah granted them an incredibly high status alongside Surah Al-Fatihah, one of the most honored Surahs. These two portions of the Holy Quran were described as “two lights” exclusively bestowed upon Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) .
The Hadith mentioned that lights of this caliber had not been granted to any other prophet. This is a strong indication of the esteemed standing of the last two verses of Al-Baqarah. Furthermore, recitation of them is deemed to guarantee that we receive the blessings within them.
As we discover in Sahih al-Bukhari and Muslim, another of the benefits of reading Surah Al-Baqarah daily is that reciting it at night protects one from evil. Thus, there exists ample authentic proof of the virtues of reciting the last two ayat of Surah Al-Baqarah.
Belief in the articles of faith in the last two verses of Surah al-Baqarah

The first of the last two verses of Al-Baqarah starts by affirming the fact that Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) , along with the rest of the Muslims, believes in the Quranic revelation. After that, Allah mentions Muslims’ belief in Allah, His angels, His books, and His messengers, without differentiation.
The belief in Allah entails the affirmation of His oneness as well as His sovereignty and omnipotence. He is the only deity worthy of worship, without any associates, who sustains the universe without needing assistance. Our belief in the angels is related to our faith, as it is from the matters of the unseen.
We believe in His revelations. They are the Word of Allah and were revealed by ALLAH to His Messengers, whom we also have faith in. Our belief in Allah’s Messengers is comprehensive and free of any bias. Hence, Muslims believe in and honor all the Messengers without exception, who were all sent with the same fundamental teachings of pure monotheism.
Submission, repentance, and belief in the Day of Judgment

Hearing and obeying refers to our acting upon our faith by submitting to our Rabb. We obey Allah and submit to His commands. Our submission keeps in our minds that we are answerable to Allah for all our actions.
We turn to ALLAH in sincere repentance, for the one who submits always seeks the Most Merciful’s forgiveness. We pursue Allah’s pleasure and want Him to forgive our errors. In addition, Muslims recognize the certainty of the Hereafter, which is also among the articles of faith. Believers accept that they will all one day be standing before Allah, and He will hold them responsible for their actions. This encourages believers to maintain a high degree of piety in all their actions.
Allah burdens no soul beyond what it can bear

The final of the last two verses of Surah Al-Baqarah commences with Allah showering His Mercy upon the believers. At the time of this revelation, the early Muslims feared that they could face chastisement simply for their thoughts. Allah reassured the believers that he would not burden them beyond their capacity. Accordingly, they would not be held accountable for mere evil thoughts. Indeed, Allah has a generous, merciful approach with regard to our thoughts and deeds.
In Sahih Muslim, we learn that Allah said that when His slave plans to do good but doesn’t follow through with it, He writes one good act for the slave, while if he carries out the act, Allah writes between 10 and 700 good deeds for him. Meanwhile, when one plans to do something evil but doesn’t carry it out, it’s not recorded. However, if he does perform the act, only one sin is written for him.
Who would know the capacity of His creation better than the perfect Creator of all that exists? Consequently, Muslims need not fear being tasked with something beyond their capability. We should maintain our faith in Allah’s Wisdom in all situations and never fall into despair.
Allah emphasized that one earns reward or punishment solely based on one’s actions. Allah rewards righteous deeds and punishes evil ones, while He holds nobody responsible for the actions of another. Allah’s Justice is perfect, and each individual shall get what he earns, purely by virtue of his own actions.
Allah teaches believers how to make Dua for His Mercy in the last two verses of Surah al-Baqarah

We are all fallible, flawed, and in need of Allah’s Mercy and Pardon. We accept this fact and repent to Allah for our wrongdoings, while striving to please Him with our actions. Humans seek Allah’s forgiveness for our absent-mindedness and the mistakes we inevitably make. We ask Allah not to burden us as heavily as the Jews and Christians before us, and grant us ease in our religion. We request Allah not to task us with what we cannot bear.
Muslims appeal to Allah to pardon us and show us mercy. We are all, without exception, in need of Allah’s Mercy. No human being is worthy of entering Paradise based solely on one’s deeds, not even our beloved Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam). Consequently, nobody can enter Jannah (Heaven) without the blessing and favor of Allah’s Mercy.
According to a Hadith in Sahih al-Bukhari, nobody’s good deeds can take them to Heaven, not even Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam). Rather, it is through Allah’s favor and mercy that one enters Paradise. Hence, one should exercise moderation in his deeds and perform what he is capable of doing, and nobody should want to die, as one may perform more good deeds if he is righteous, or one may repent if he is a sinner.
Allah is our Protector and the only One who bestows victory

Allah is our Protector, and He alone has the power to assist us in every situation. He possesses infinite power, and we ought to turn to Him alone for our Protection and needs. The final verse concludes with an appeal to Allah to grant us victory over the disbelievers. Certainly, we can only depend on Him for our successes. Therefore, we should strive determinedly in the path of Allah with sincerity, conviction, and complete faith in Him.
As a result of all these benefits, it is a highly recommended sunnah to recite the last two ayat of Surah Baqarah before sleeping.

Jazak Allah khayr.

"O Allah, Shower Your Peace come upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, as you have brought peace to Ibrahim and his family.
Truly, You are Praiseworthy and Glorious. O Allah, Shower your blessing upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, as you have blessed Ibrahim and his family. Truly, You are Praiseworthy and Glorious". Iam Satisfied with Allâh as My Rabb and Cherisher,Iam Satisfied With Islam as My Din (religion) and I am satisfied with Muhammad as a Rasulallah (Messenger)sallallahu alaihi was salam) I seek Protection with ALLAH! With the Glorious and Noble Face of ALLAH! With the Complete and Perfect words of ALLAH! With the Exalted Attributes of ALLAH! From the Punishment of Hell; From chastisement in the Grave; From the Trial of Life and Death; From the Mischief of the dajjal. There is no power nor strength with (anyone) save Allah. ALLAH is Good and Only accept that which is Good. ALLAH is the Truth and only accept that which True. ALLAH is Pure and only accept that which is Pure. Ya ALLAH!

You have created Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) to be the most truthful of men and what He(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) has said is the absolute truth!.......Praise be to Allah. Humility is one of the greatest blessings that Allaah can bestow upon His slave. He says (interpretation of the meaning):
“And by the Mercy of Allaah, you dealt with them gently. And had you been severe and harsh-hearted, they would have broken away from about you”
[Aal ‘Imraan 3:159]
“And verily, you (O Muhammad) are on an exalted (standard of) character”
[al-Qalam 68:4]
This refers to Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) being a true slave of Allaah in many ways and his treating all people with the utmost kindness. His character was one of complete humility based on sincerity towards Allaah and compassion towards the slaves of Allaah, which was the complete opposite of the characteristics of the proud and arrogant.
Al-Majmoo’ al-Kaamilah li Mu’allafaat al-Shaykh al-Sa’di, 5/442, 443
There are many means of attaining humility, which no Muslim adopts but he will attain this characteristic. They were explained by Imam Ibn al-Qayyim as follows:
Humility comes from knowing about Allaah and His names and attributes, and His greatness, venerating Him, loving Him and being in awe of Him; and also from knowing about oneself and one’s faults, and weaknesses. From that may develop the attitude of humility, which means feeling helpless before Allaah, and being humble and compassionate towards His slaves, so that the person does not feel superior towards anyone, or think that he has any rights over anyone else; rather he thinks that others are better than him, and that their rights come before his. This is a characteristic that Allaah gives to those whom He loves, honours and draws close to Him.
Al-Rooh, p. 233.
There are many reports which speak of the reward of humility. For example:
It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah that Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) said: “Wealth does not decrease because of charity, and Allaah increases His slave in honour when he forgives others. And no one humbles himself before Allaah but Allaah will raise him (in status).”
Narrated by Muslim, 2588. Al-Nawawi included it in a chapter entitled: “The recommendation of forgiveness and humility.”
Al-Nawawi said:
Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) said: “And no one humbles himself before Allaah but Allaah will raise him (in status).” This is understood in two ways: the first is that He will raise him (in status) in this world, and give him status in people’s hearts because of his humility, and give him a high status in people’s eyes. The second is that what is meant is his reward in the Hereafter, where his status will be raised because of his humility in this world.
The scholars said: It may be that both are meant, (and that his status will be raised) both in this world and in the Hereafter. And Allaah knows best.
Sharh Muslim, 16/142.
Humility may mean various things, such as:
1.A person humbling himself to the commands and prohibitions of Allaah, doing what He commands and avoiding what He forbids.
Ibn al-Qayyim said:
Because a person may hesitate to obey His commands out of laziness, thus behaving in a reluctant way in an attempt to flee from servitude towards Allaah, and his soul may have the desire to commit haraam actions, but when the person humbles himself to the commands and prohibitions of Allaah, he will humble himself to true submission (‘uboodiyyah).
Al-Rooh p. 233.
2.Humbling oneself before the might, majesty and power of Allaah.
Ibn al-Qayyim said:
Every time he feels that he is great, he remembers the might of Allaah and that might belongs to Him only, and he remembers His intense anger against those who compete with Him in that, then he humbles himself before Him and submits to the might of Allaah. This is the ultimate humility and inevitably includes the first type of humility mentioned above, but the converse can never apply (i.e., this type of humility inevitably leads to the first type, but a person may submit to the commands and prohibitions of Allaah but he does not humble himself before His might).
The one who is truly humble is the one who is blessed with both. And Allaah is the One Whose help we seek.
Al-Rooh, p. 233.
3.Humility in one’s dress and manner of walking.
It was narrated from Ibn ‘Umar that Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) said: “Whilst a man was letting his garment drag out of pride, he was swallowed up by the earth and will continue sinking in it until the Day of Resurrection.”
Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 3297.
It was also narrated by al-Bukhaari (5452) and Muslim (2088) from the hadeeth of Abu Hurayrah. According to the version narrated by al-Bukhaari: “Whilst a man was walking in a garment admiring himself with his hair nicely combed, Allaah caused (the earth) to swallow him up and he will continue sinking in it until the Day of Resurrection.”
4.Humility towards one who is of a lesser status and helping him
It was narrated that al-Bara’ ibn ‘Aazib said:Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) was moving soil with us on the day of al-Ahzaab, and I saw him with dust covering the whiteness of his stomach, and he Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam)) was saying, “(O Allaah)! Without You, we would not have been guided, nor would we have given in charity, nor would we have prayed. So (O Allaah!) send tranquility (Sakeenah) upon us as they (the chiefs of the enemy tribes) have rebelled against us. And if they intend affliction (i.e. want to frighten us and fight against us) then we would not (flee but would withstand them).” And he raised his voice whilst saying it.
Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 6809; Muslim, 1803.
5.Humility in interactions with one’s wife and helping her.
It was narrated that al-Aswad said: I asked ‘Aa’ishah what Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) used to do in his house, and she said: He used to serve his family and when the time for prayer came he would go out and pray.
al-Bukhaari, 644.
Al-Haafiz Ibn Hajar said:
This shows that we are encouraged to be humble and not arrogant, and that a man should serve his family.
Fath al-Baari, 2/163
6.Humility towards the young and joking with them.
It was narrated that Anas said: Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) was the best of people in character. I had a brother whose name was Abu ‘Umayr. He said, I think he was weaned, and when he Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam)) came he would say, “O Abu Umayr, what happened to the nughayr (a small bird that he kept as a pet)?”
Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 5850; Muslim, 2150.
Al-Nawawi said:
The nughayr is a small bird.
This hadeeth teaches us many things, such as being kind to small children. This demonstrates the good character ofRasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) and how he was of noble character and humble.
Sharh Muslim, 14/129
7.Humility towards servants and slaves
It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) that Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) said: “If the servant of one of you brings his food and he does not want to make him sit and eat with him, then let him offer him a morsel or two, because he has prepared it and served it.”
Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 2418 and 5144; Muslim, 1663.
We ask Allaah to make us among those who humble themselves before His might.
And Allaah knows best..........ALLAH created human beings to worship Him and a practising Muslim in, essence, should be able to worship ALLAH in every second, of every hour of every day. Islam is a way of life and it means nothing more, or less, than submission to the One (God) One ALLAH!.

“And I (ALLAH) created not the jinn and humans except they should worship Me Alone.” (Quran 51:56)

The concept of ALLAH in Islam describes Him as the most Merciful and the most Loving and whatever He prescribes for humankind is in the best interest of humankind. Submission to the will of ALLAH is a pathway to purity, to peace and ultimately to Paradise.
The word Quran most frequently uses to describe worship is Ibadah. Ibadah is the root of the word ‘ubudiyyah, which means to express ones humility or humbleness, and as with most Arabic words there are many shades of meaning. Ibadah involves more then an awareness of humility. It is the complete sense of humbleness that overcomes one who is totally submitted to the will of ALLAH, the Almighty. Worship is submission to ALLAH, the essential part of submission is humility.

“So glorify the praises of your Rabb and be of those who prostrate themselves (to Him).” (Quran 15:98)

Humility can guide us to Paradise, just as its opposite, arrogance, kibr in Arabic, can only lead us into Hell. It is Satan’s arrogance that caused his expulsion from Paradise; when he refused to humbly obey ALLAH’s command and prostrate before Adam, the father of mankind, he condemned himself and his followers to Hell. Satan’s lack of submission, or humility, resulted in one of the most pious of ALLAH’s creatures falling into the abyss.[1]

Except Satan, he refused to be among the prostrators. ALLAH said, 'O Satan! What is your reason for not being among the prostrators? ‘Satan said: 'I am not the one to prostrate myself to a human being, whom You created from sounding clay...” (Quran 15:30-35)

No one who behaves arrogantly or who acts as if he or she has power over others is capable of true submission. All power and strength is from ALLAH Alone. All human beings are equal in the sight of ALLAH and the distinctions between nations, tribes, and families are only to know each other and not for the sake pride.

“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 ALLAH is that (believer) who has At-Taqwa (ALLAH consciousness). Verily, ALLAH is All-Knowing, All-Aware.” (Quran 49:15)

Humility is Piety

The main pillar of worship, Ibadah, is the prayer. The congregational prayer is performed in rows where all men stand before ALLAH as equals.[2] There is no special place for the rich or powerful, the meek and poor are not relegated to the back lines. Each man bows his head in humility knowing that his brothers, on either side of him are equally important in the sight of ALLAH. Only one thing raises one man or woman above another – piety. True piety or righteousness is not achievable without cultivating a sense of humility.

“And turn not your face away from men with pride, nor walk in insolence through the earth. Verily, ALLAH likes not each arrogant boaster.” (Quran 31:18)

Humility comes from knowing about ALLAH and recognising His greatness, venerating Him, loving Him and being in awe of Him; and it comes from knowing about oneself and one’s own faults, and weaknesses. ALLAH gives this characteristic to those who struggle to become close to Him through deeds of piety and righteousness.[3] A companion close to Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) heard him say,

“Wealth does not decrease because of charity, and ALLAH increases His slave in honour when he forgives others. And no one humbles himself before ALLAH but ALLAH will raise him (in status).” (Saheeh Muslim )

Humility is one of the greatest blessings ALLAH can bestow on a human being. It allows one to achieve genuine submission. Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) was truly submitted to ALLAH; his character was one of complete humility and based on sincere trust in ALLAH. He was a model of kindness and humbleness. In fact, the characteristics displayed by Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) were the exact opposite of pride and arrogance. Every aspect of his life reflected humbleness, even his walking, talking, sitting or eating.
Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) did not behave towards others as if he was better than they were, nor did he spurn manual work. One of his companions reported that Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam)worked happily with servants or workers. Other companions related that Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) tidied his house, tied camels, feed animals, ate meals with his servants, and helped them in kneading dough and bringing provisions from the market. It was also reported that he used to visit the sick, attend funerals, ride on a donkey, slow down his pace for the sake of the weak and accept invitations from the poor.
The companions of Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) and the early generations of Muslims understood the concept of humility. They behaved humbly towards ALLAH and mankind because of their love for ALLAH, and their fellow man, and fear of punishment in the Hereafter.
During his Caliphate, Omar ibn Al Khattab was marching upon Damascus with his army. Abu Ubayda was with him. They came upon a little lake. Omar descended from his camel, took off his shoes, tied them together, and hung them on his shoulder. He then took the halter off his camel and they entered the water together. Seeing this in front of the army, Abu Ubayda said, “O Commander of the Believers! How can you be so humble in front of all your men?” Omar answered, “Woe to you, Abu Ubayda! If only anyone else other than you thought this way! Thoughts like this will cause the downfall of the Muslims. Don't you see we were indeed a very lowly people? ALLAH raised us to a position of honour and greatness through Islam. If we forget who we are and wish other than the Islam which elevated us, the One who raised us surely will debase us.”
The one who is truly humble is the one who is truly blessed. Every time he feels superior to others, he remembers ALLAH, the Most Great and Omnipotent, and humbles himself in true submission.

“And the slaves of ALLAH are those who walk on the earth in humility and calmness, and when the foolish address them (with bad words) they reply back with mild words of gentleness.” (Quran 25:63)

Al-Qadr is an Arabic word meaning Allah’s predestination of measurements and sustenance of everything and everyone, according to His Knowledge and Wisdom. It comprises the following four aspects: 1. Knowledge - The belief that Allah’s knowledge encompasses everything, every matter, major or minor, and the time frame of everything that happens in this universe. Allah’s Knowledge encompasses all of His actions and actions taken by His slaves. 2. Pre-Recording - The belief that Allah recorded everything in a Tablet that He kept with Himself, called 'Al-Lawh Al-Mahfooth' (The Preserved Tablet). Allah Says (what means): “Do you not know that Allah knows what is in the heaven and earth? Indeed that is in a Record [i.e., Al-Lawh Al-Mahfooth]. Indeed that, for Allah, is easy.” [Quran 22:70] Abdullaah bin 'Amr bin Al-'Aas said that he heard the Messenger of Allah say: “Allah recorded the measurement of all matters pertaining to creation fifty thousand years before He created the heavens and earth.” [Muslim] 3. The Will of Allah - The belief that nothing, whether related to Allah’s actions or actions taken by His slaves, can occur without His permission. Allah Says (what means): “And your Rabb creates what He wills and chooses...” [Quran 28:68] And (what means): “…And Allah does what He wills.” [Quran 14:27] And (what means) “It is He who forms you in the wombs however He wills…” [Quran 3:6] As for actions taken by His creation, Allah Says (what means): “…And if Allah had willed, He could have given them power over you, and they would have fought you.” [Quran 4:90] And (what means): “…And if Allah had willed, they would not have done so. So leave them and that which they invent.” [Quran 6:137] 4. Creation - The belief that Allah created all creation, all what they possess of attributes, and all their actions. Allah Says (what means): “Allah is the Creator of all things, and He is, over all things, Disposer of affairs.” [Quran 39:62] And (what means): “…He has created each thing and determined it with [precise] determination.” [Quran: 25:2] Also, Ibraheem said to his people (what means): “While Allah created you and that which you do?” [Quran 37:96]Believing in Al-Qadr, as described above, does not mean that people have no power over the actions they choose to take. The Sharee’ah (Islamic Law) as well as reality, confirm man has a will of his own:As for the Sharee’ah, Allah Says about one’s own will (what means): “…So he who wills may take to his Rabb a [way of] return [by obeying his commandments].” [Quran 78:39] And (what means): “So come to your place of cultivation however you wish …” [Quran 2:223] As for one’s own power over his actions, Allah Says (what means): “So fear Allah as much as you are able and listen and obey…” [Quran 64:16] And (what means): “Allah does not charge a soul except [with that within] its capacity. It will have [the consequence of] what [good] it has gained, and it will bear [the consequence of] what [evil] it has earned…” [Quran 2:286]As for reality, every human knows that he has a power and a will of his own. He uses his power and will to indulge in or avoid actions of his choice. People distinguish between what they do by their own power and between what they have no power over, like shivering due to illness or the extreme cold. However, the power and will of mankind is under the control of Allah’s Will and Power; Allah Says (what means): “For whoever wills among you to take a right course. And you do not will except that Allah wills – Rabb of the worlds.” [Quran 81:28-29]. The universe is Allah’s property and nothing happens in His Kingdom without His Knowledge and Permission. Belief in Al-Qadr, as explained above, does not provide an excuse for mankind to sin or abandon what they are obligated to do. This excuse can be refuted by the following seven arguments: 1. Allah Says (what means): “Those who associated with Allah will say: 'If Allah had willed, we would not have associated [anything] and neither would our fathers, nor would we have prohibited anything.' Likewise did those before deny until they tasted Our punishment. Say: 'Do you have any knowledge that you can produce for us?' You follow not except assumption, and you are not but falsifying.” [Quran 6:148] The disbelievers did not have a valid excuse when they said that what they did was according to Al-Qadr. If this excuse was valid, then why will Allah punish them for their sins? 2. Allah Says (what means): “[We sent] messengers as bringers of good tidings and warners so that mankind will have no argument against Allah after the messengers. And ever is Allah Exalted in Might and Wise.” [Quran 4:165] Sending the Messengers also took place according to Al-Qadr. This is why the disbelievers cannot use Al--Qadr as an excuse for not believing, because Al-Qadr provided them with the means to escape Allah’s punishment by following His Messengers, may Allah exalt their mention. 3. Ali Ibn Abu Talib narrated that said Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam): “The final destination, in Hell or Paradise, is already determined for each one of you.” A man said: “Should we depend on this fact, O Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam)?" (Meaning, to abandon doing good deeds) He said: “No! Perform (good) deeds, because everyone will be helped (to go on the path that he chooses and reach his destiny).” Then he read the verse (which means): “As for he who gives [in charity] and fears Allah.” [Quran 92:5]” 4. Allah conveyed His commandments to His slaves and did not require them to do what is beyond their capacity; He says: “So fear Allah as much as you are able…” [Quran 64:16] And: “Allah does not charge a soul except [with that within] its capacity…” [Quran: 2:286] If the slave is forced to do whatever deeds he performs, then Allah would have required from him what is beyond his capacity, and this is a false belief. For this reason, Allah forgives sins that take place because of ignorance or forgetfulness. 5. Al-Qadr is a matter of Allah’s Knowledge. No one can uncover his own Qadr except after it occurs. One’s intention to perform a deed precedes the action itself. He does not know what Al-Qadr holds for him. Therefore, Al-Qadr is not a valid excuse for sinning and abandoning the commandments of Allah. 6. One always seeks what is convenient for him. No one of sane mind would abandon what brings material benefit to him, saying that Al-Qadr forced him to take this course of action. Therefore, why would one use Al-Qadr as an excuse for abandoning what brings benefit to him in matters of religion and not do the same for matters of life? 7. If one of those who abandon the commandments of Allah and indulge in sinning comes under attack of his honour or possessions, would he accept the excuse of the attacker, if he says that he attacked him because it was his Qadr to attack him, and therefore he is not to be blamed? Indeed no!
Therefore, why does this person refuse Al-Qadr as an excuse for whoever attacked him, and at the same time use Al-Qadr as his excuse for abandoning Allah’s rights on him?
It was reported that a man who was caught stealing was brought to 'Umar Ibn Al-Khattab who ordered that this man’s hand be cut off. The man said: “Wait, O leader of the believers! I only stole because this was in the Qadr of Allah." 'Umar replied “And we are amputating your hand because it is in the Qadr of Allah.”.......

And in it there is a sadness that cannot be removed except with the happiness of knowing Allah and being true to Him. And in it there is an emptiness that cannot be filled except with love for ALLAH (Him) and by turning to Him and always remembering Him. And if a person were given all of the world and what is in it, it would not fill this emptiness. Happiness is attained by three things: being patient when tested, being thankful when receiving a blessing, and being repentant upon sinning. When Allah tests you it is never to destroy you. When He removes something in your possession it is only in order to empty your hands for an even greater gift. Had Allah lifted the veil for his slave and shown him how He handles his affairs for him, and how Allah is keener for the benefit of the slave than his own self, his heart would have melted out of the love for Allah and would have been torn to pieces out of thankfulness to Allah. Therefore, if the pains of this world tire you, do not grieve. For it may be that Allah wishes to hear your voice by way of Dua'a. So, pour out your desires in prostration and forget about it and know; that verily Allah does not forget it. Everything that is loved, if it is not loved for ALLAH’s (His) sake then this love is nothing but distress and punishment. Every action that is not performed for His sake then it is wasted and severed. Every heart that does not reach ALLAH (Him) is wretched; veiled from achieving its success and happiness. Yearning for Allah and His meeting is like the gentle breeze blowing upon the heart, extinguishing the blaze of the Dunya. Whosoever caused his heart to settle with his Rabb shall be in a state, calm and tranquility, and whosoever sent it amongst the people shall be disturbed and excessively perturbed. The heart becomes sick, as the body becomes sick, and its remedy is al-Tawbah (repentance), Dhikr is a protection [from transgression]. It becomes rusty as a mirror becomes rusty, and its clarity is obtained by Dhikr (remembrance). It becomes naked as the body becomes naked, and its beautification is al-Taqwa. It becomes hungry and thirsty as the body becomes hungry, and its food and drink are knowledge, dhikr, love, dependence, repentance and servitude to ALLAH. The perfection of Tawheed is found when there remains nothing in the heart except ALLAH! We should know that Allah has created us to live an eternal life with no death, a life of honor and ease with no humiliation, a life of security with no fear, a life of richness with no poverty, a life of joy with no pain, a life of perfection with no flaws. Allah is testing us in this world with a life that will end in death, a life of pride that is accompanied by humiliation and degradation, a life that is tainted by fear, where joy and ease are mixed with sorrow and pain. There is no joy for someone who has no sorrow. There is no pleasure for the one who has no patience No bliss for someone with no misery
and no rest for the one with no fatigue.
When someone is a little tired,
he has long rest.
When he endures the difficulty of steadfastness for a time,
that leads him to eternal life.
All that the people of eternal bliss
are in is steadfastness for a time. ALLAH – the Most High – said: “O you who believe! Remember ALLAH and remember Him a lot.” [Soorah al-Ahzaab 33:4I].
“Those men and women who remember Allaah a lot.” [Soorah al-Ahzaab 33:35].
“So, when you have finished the rights of your Pilgrimage, then remember ALLAH as you remember your fore-father, or with more intense remembrance.” [Soorah al-Baqarah 2:200]. These verses contain a command to remember Allaah intensely and abundantly, since the worshipper is in dire need of [remembering ALLAH] and cannot do without it even for a twinkling of an eye. This is because every moment that a person does not spend in the dhikr (remembrance) of ALLAH will not be of any benefit to him. Rather, the harm entailed in being neglectful of the dhikr of ALLAH is far greater than any benefits that can be gained. One of the ‘aarifeen (those who are knowledgeable about ALLAH) said:”If a person were to spend such and such number of years engaged [in the dhikr of ALLAH], then he turns away from it for just a moment, what he will lose is far greater than whatever he has already gained.”
Al-Bayhaqee relates from ‘Aaishah radiallaahu ‘anhaa that Rasulullah (sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “There is no time in which the son of Aadam does not remember ALLAH in it, except that it will be a source of regret for him on the Day of Judgement”
Mu’aadh ibn jabal radiallaahu ‘anhu relates that Rasulullah (sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “The people of Paradise will not have any regrets except for those moments in which they were not engaged in the dhikr (remembrance) of ALLAH.”
Mu’aadh ibn Jabal also relates that Rasulullah (sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) was asked: What action is the most beloved to ALLAH? So, he replied: “That you continue to keep your tongue moist with the dhikr of ALLAH, until you die.” (POLISHING THE HEART) Abu Dardaa radiallaahu ‘anhu said:”For everything there is a polish and the polish for the heart is the dhikr of ALLAH”.
Al-Bayhaqee relates from Ibn ‘Umar radiallaahu ‘anhu that Rasulullah (sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “For everything there is a polish, and the polish for the hearts is the dhikr (remembrance) of AllaahALLAH. There is nothing more potent in saving a person from the punishment of AllaahALLAH than the dhikr of AllaahALLAH.” It was said: Not even Jihaad in the path of AllaahALLAH. So, he replied: “Not even if you were to continue striking with your sword until it breaks.”5
There is no doubt that hearts become rusty just as copper and silver coins become rusty. The polish for [this rust] is the dhikr of ALLAH. This is because [dhikr] is like a polish [which polishes the heart] like a shiny mirror. When dhikr is left, the rust returns. But when dhikr resumes, then the heart is [again] polished. And hearts become rusty due to two things
(i) neglecting remembering Allaah, and
(ii) committing sins.
The polish for these two things is
(i) seeking Allaah’s forgiveness and
(ii) dhikr.
CONFUSING TRUTH WITH FALSEHOOD
Whoever neglects [remembering Allaah] most of the time, then his heart will become rusty in accordance with how neglectful the person is. And when this [filthy] rust accumulates on the heart, then it no longer recognizes things as they really are. Thus, it views falsehood as if it is the truth, and truth as if it is falsehood. This is because this rust darkens and confuses the heart’s perception, and so it is unable to truly recognize things for what they really are. So as the rust accumulates, the heart gets blackened, and as this happens the heart becomes stained with this filthy rust, and when this occurs it corrupts the heart’s perception and recognition of things. The heart [then] does not accept the truth nor does it reject falsehood, and this is the greatest calamity that can strike the heart. Being neglectful [of dhikr] and following of whims and desires is a direct consequence of such a heart, which [further] extinguish the heart’s light and blinds its vision. Allaah – the Most High – said:
“And do not obey him whose heart We have made to be neglectful of Our remembrance, one who follows his own whims and desires and whose affairs are furat [have gone beyond bounds and whose deeds have been lost].” [Soorah al-Kahf 18:28].
QUALITIES OF A GUIDE
So when a worshipper desires to follow another person, then let him see: Is this person from the people of dhikr, or from the people who are negligent [about remembering Allaah]? Does this person judge in accordance with his whims and desires, or by the Revelation? So, if he judges by whims and desires then he is actually from those people who are negligent; those whose affairs have gone beyond bounds and whose deeds are lost.
The term furat [which occurs in the above verse] has been explained in many ways. It has been explained to mean:- (i) losing the rewards of that type of action which is essential to do, and in which lies success and happiness; (ii) exceeding the limits of something; (iii) being destroyed; and (iv) opposing the truth. Each of these sayings are very close in meaning to each other.
The point is that Allaah – the One free from all imperfections, the Most High – has prohibited following all those who possess such attributes. So it is absolutely essential that a person considers whether such attributes are found in his shaykh, or the person who’s example he follows, or the person that he obeys. If they are, then he should distance himself from such a person. However, if it is found that the person is, in most cases, pre-occupied with the dhikr of Allaah and with following the Sunnah, and his affairs do not exceed the limits, but rather he is judicious and resolute in his affairs, then he should cling to him very firmly. Indeed, there is no difference between the living and the dead, except with the dhikr of Allaah; since [the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam] said: “The example of one who remembers Allaah and someone who does not, is like the example between the living and the dead.”

Truly, You are Praiseworthy and Glorious". I am Satisfied with Allâh as My Rabb and Cherisher, I am Satisfied with Islam as My Din (religion) and I am satisfied with Muhammad as a Rasulallah (Messenger)sallallahu alaihi was salam) I seek Protection with ALLAH! With the Glorious and Noble Face of ALLAH! With the Complete and Perfect words of ALLAH! With the Exalted Attributes of ALLAH! From the Punishment of Hell; From chastisement in the Grave; From the Trial of Life and Death; From the Mischief of the dajjal. There is no power nor strength with (anyone) save Allah. ALLAH is Good and Only accept that which is Good. ALLAH is the Truth and only accept that which True. ALLAH is Pure and only accept that which is Pure. Ya ALLAH! ALL the praises are for You. You are the Holder of the Heavens and the Earth, and whatever is in them. Ya ALLAH! All praises are for You; You are the Sustainer of the Heavens and the Earth And whatever is in them. Ya ALLAH! All the praises are for you; You have the Possession of the Heavens and the Earth and whatever is in them. Ya ALLAH! All the praises are for You; You are Light (Nur) of the Heavens and Earth And whatever is in them. Ya A! LLAH! Al l praises are for You; You are the King of the Heavens and the Earth And whatever is in them. Ya ALLAH! All praises are for You; You are the truth and Your Promise is the Truth, And Your word is the Truth and the Meeting with You is true, And Paradise is true and Hell is true and All the Prophets (peace be upon them) are true; And Muhammad Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) is true, And the Day of Resurrection is True. Ya ALLAH! You have promise and Your promise is the truth, Ya ALLAH! You have promise and Your words is the truth, Ya ALLAH! You have promise and You are the Truth! Ya ALLAH! You have created Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) to be the most truthful of men and what He (sallallahu alayhi wa salam) has said is the absolute truth!......O Allah, I beg You to bestow upon me Your love and the love of whoever loves You and the knowledge that helps us to attain Your love! The first reason: Reciting the Holy Qur`an with deep contemplation in its meanings and its purposes; this is like thinking deeply in the book that the servant memorizes and expounds on it to understand the purpose of its author. Allah Almighty says: {Do they not then think deeply in the Qur’an, or are their hearts locked up (from understanding it)?} [Muhammad 47:24] We should know that the purpose of reading is to contemplate; if this could not be gained without repeating the verse, the person should repeat it as Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) and his companions did. The second reason: Seeking nearness with Allah by the supererogatory deeds after the obligatory deeds, because they take the person to the rank of the beloved after the rank of love. Allah the Exalted and Glorious says in the Qudsi Hadeeth: “And the most beloved things with which My slave comes seeks nearness (through) to Me, is what I have enjoined upon him; and My slave keeps on coming closer to Me through performing Nawafil (supererogatory acts) till I love him, and if I love him, I become his sense of hearing with which he hears with, and his sense of sight with which he sees with, and his hand with which he grips, and his leg with which he walks; and if he asks Me, I will give him, and if he asks My protection (Refuge), I will protect him; (i.e. give him My Refuge)”. [Reported by Al-Bukhari] «وما تقرب إلي عبدي بشيء أحب إلي مما افترضت عليه، وما يزال عبدي يتقرب إلي بالنوافل حتى أحبه، فإذا أحببته: كنت سمعه الذي يسمع به، وبصره الذي يبصر به، ويده التي يبطش بها، ورجله التي يمشي بها، وإن سألني لأعطينه، ولئن استعاذني لأعيذنه» رواه البخاري Note: This Hadeeth means that he does not say or hear except what is good and does not see except what is permitted by Allah and does not deal with a prohibited thing or walks to what is prohibited; this is because of the success that Allah bestows upon the servant. And this is the meaning of His saying ‘so I become his sense of hearing with which he hears, and his sense of sight with which he sees … etc.’ The third reason: Remembering Him all the time by tongue, heart, deeds and status; person’s share of love depends on his share of this remembrance. Allah the Exalted and Glorious says in the Qudsi Hadeeth: “I am with my servant as long as he mentions Me and his lips moves with mentioning Me.” [Authenticated by Al-Albani as Saheeh] «أنا مع عبدي ما ذكرني وتحركت بي شفتاه» صححه الألباني And Allah almighty says: {Therefore remember Me (by praying, glorifying), I will remember you} [Al-Baqarah 2:152] Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) says: “There is no people get up from a gathering in which they do not remember Allah but they get up like people who got up after eating a donkey’s corpse and it would be grief to them.” [Reported by Abu Dawûd and Authenticated by Al-Albani] «ما من قوم يقومون من مجلس لا يذكرون الله فيه إلا قاموا عن مثل جيفة حمار وكان لهم حسرة» رواه أبي داود وصححه الألباني The fourth reason: Giving preference to what He likes over what you like, at the times in which the whims overcome you, and seeking what He likes even if it is difficult. Ibn Al-Qayim (may Allah mercy him) says: “Giving preference to the satisfaction of Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, over the satisfaction of anyone else means to want and to do whatever brings His satisfaction even if it dissatisfied the creatures. This is the rank of Ithar, and its superior status is for Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam), and the superior of this status is for the Messengers of strong will, and the superior among those is our Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam). And all of that could not be attained without three things: 1- Defeating the whims of the self. 2- Doing the contrary to the whims of the self. 3- Fighting Satan and his supporters. The fifth reason: Making the heart aware of His names and attributes, giving it the opportunity of walking in the orchards of this knowledge, because whoever knows Allah with His names, attributes and acts will certainly love Him. The knowing person is the one who knows Allah with His names, attributes and acts, and then become sincere in his dealings with Allah, and then sincerely dedicate his intentions and purposes to Allah. On the other hand, whoever denies Allah’s attributes had demolished the basis of Islam and belief, and whoever interprets the attributes of Allah seems as if he accuses the prophetic explanation for the message with deficiency. The sixth reason: Seeing His kind, beneficence and inward and outward blessings and graces, because they are reasons for His love; the man loves, by his nature, whoever makes favor to him, treats him kindly, consoles him, grants him victory, defeats his enemies and helps him in all his affairs. Allah Almighty says: {and if you count the Blessings of Allah, never will you be able to count them. Verily, man is indeed an extreme wrong-doer, a disbeliever (an extreme ingrate who denies Allah’s Blessings by disbelief, and by worshipping others besides Allah, and by disobeying Allah and His Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam)} [Ibrahîm 14:34] {وَإِنْ تَعُدُّوا نِعْمَةَ اللَّهِ لَا تُحْصُوهَا إِنَّ الْإِنْسَانَ لَظَلُومٌ كَفَّارٌ} إبراهيم: 34 The seventh reason, which is the most marvelous one: Having the heart totally broken between the hands of Allah Almighty; this could be explained only by the words. To be broken means to be humble; Allah Almighty says: {And all voices will be humbled for the Most Gracious (Allah), and nothing shall you hear but the low voice of their footsteps.} [Ta-Ha 20:108] {وَخَشَعَتِ الْأَصْوَاتُ لِلرَّحْمَنِ فَلَا تَسْمَعُ إِلَّا هَمْسًا} طه: 108 The word ‘humbleness’ is usually used with the limbs, whereas ‘submission’ is usually used with the heart; therefore, it is said, “if the heart submitted, its limbs would be humble.” The eighth reason: Having loneliness with Him at the time of His descent, to talk to Him, recite His words, stand with your heart and behave between His hands in way shows slavery to Him and end this with repentance. Allah Almighty says: {Their sides forsake their beds, to invoke their Rabb in fear and hope, and they spend (in charity in Allah’s Cause) out of what We have bestowed on them} [As-Sajdah 32:16] {تَتَجَافَى جُنُوبُهُمْ عَنِ الْمَضَاجِعِ يَدْعُونَ رَبَّهُمْ خَوْفًا وَطَمَعًا وَمِمَّا رَزَقْنَاهُمْ يُنْفِقُونَ} السجدة: 16 The ninth reason: Sitting with the true lovers of Allah and picking the best of their sayings like picking the best of fruits, and do not talk except if talking is better and leads to enhancing your status and benefiting the others. Allah Almighty says in the Qudsi Hadeeth: “My love is due to those who love each other for My sake, My love is due to those who sit with each other for My sake and My love is due to those who visit each other for My sake.” [Authenticated by Al-Albani] «وجبت محبتي للمتحابين في، والمتجالسين في، والمتزاورين في» صححه الألباني And it is narrated that Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) said: “The strongest tie of faith is to love for the sake of Allah and to hate for the sake of Allah.” [Reported by al-Albani as good by the virtue of another hadîth] «إن أوثق عرى الإيمان: أن تحب في الله، وتبغض في الله» الألباني، حسن لغيره The tenth reason: Neglecting anything makes a curtain between the heart and Allah the Exalted and Glorious. If the heart is corrupted, the person would not find benefit from what he fixes in his worldly life and he would not find benefit or gain in the Hereafter. Allah Almighty says: {The Day whereon neither wealth nor sons will avail, Except him who brings to Allah a clean heart [clean from Shirk (polytheism) and Nifaq (hypocrisy)].} [Ash-Shu’ara`26:88-89] {يَوْمَ لَا يَنْفَعُ مَالٌ وَلَا بَنُونَ (88) إِلَّا مَنْ أَتَى اللَّهَ بِقَلْبٍ سَلِيمٍ} الشعراء: 88-89 There are three requirements for repentance; regret, desistance and apology. Repentance means to regret the deeds of the past and to desist it in the present time and to intend not to do it in the future. These three conditions should be present at the time of repentance to return to the status of slavery, that you are created for it. Actually, this return is the essence of repentance.

You have created Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) to be the most truthful of men and what He (sallallahu alayhi wa salam) has said is the absolute truth! ....... The duties instated by faith are a necessary measure in order to regulate human affairs, guide man, prevent him from straying, as well as dissuade him from self-harm or harming others. By recognizing that the Sacred Law (sharī‘ah) exists to guide and protect us, we can attain to a reasonable equilibrium in this world and joy in the next. Vital to this is knowledge, for without it we would not know how to live out ALLAH’s will in our lives. As such, a core body of sacred knowledge has been made obligatory upon each Muslims to acquire and learn – which is what is meant by this celebrated hadith: ‘The seeking of knowledge is obligatory upon every Muslim.’1In our quest to gain and to grow in knowledge (‘ilm), the following seven considerations should be kept at the forefront of our heart and mind.

1. ALLAH loves and honors the learned and the seekers of knowledge: ALLAH will raise to high ranks those who believe and those among you who have knowledge. [58:11] It is stated in a hadith: ‘Whoever traverses a path in order to seek knowledge, ALLAH will facilitate for him, due to it, a path to Paradise.’2 Another states: ‘The world and whatever is in it is cursed, except for the remembrance of ALLAH and whatever is attached to Him, and a scholar and a learner.’3 Knowing how beloved to Allah sacred knowledge is should help spur us on to learning sacred knowledge and valuing its acquisition. 2. Knowledge is a means to the goal, it is not the goal in itself. That goal is to seek the good pleasures of ALLAH through worship and action. ‘Whosoever seeks knowledge,’ states the following prophetic caution, ‘in order to compete with the scholars, or to argue with the foolish, or to turn peoples’ faces towards him, let him takes his seat in the Fire.’4 Similar sentiments echo in the following hadith: ‘Whoever learns knowledge by which is sought the Face of ALLAH, but he does so only to achieve some worldly gain, shall not smell [even] the fragrance of Paradise on the Day of Resurrection.’5 Abu Qilabah, one of Islam’s early pietists, advised: ‘If ALLAH gives to you knowledge, give to Him worship; and don’t let your concern be to merely narrate to the people.’6 Knowing that knowledge is a means should help focus our sincerity on singling-out Allah for His pleasure and acceptance in seeking sacred knowledge. 3. Learning knowledge must be prioritized. At the base of the pyramid is learning the fard al-‘ayn – what is a “personal obligation” on each individual (in contrast to a fard kifayah, or communal obligation). Ibn Rajab said: ‘So it is obligatory on each Muslim to learn what is mandated by religion in terms of ritual purification, prayer or fasting. It is obligatory on those who possess wealth to know what is due from it in terms of giving zakah, financial maintenance [of one’s dependents], performing pilgrimage and aiding jihad. Likewise, it is obligatory on those in trade and commerce to learn what transactions are valid and invalid … Realize, too, that knowledge of the lawful and prohibited must also be learnt.’7 The golden rule in this regard is as follows: afḍal al-‘ilm ‘ilm al-hāl wa afḍal al-‘aml hifẓ al-hāl – ‘The best knowledge is knowledge of one’s [current] state, while the best action is guarding one’s [current] state.’8 That is to say, one must acquire as much knowledge as one requires so as to fulfil the obligation of the moment (be it a duty one owes to ALLAH or to others), or to refrain from the prohibition of the moment. Knowing that knowledge must be prioritized, as well as what to priorities, will save us from the aimless confusion most people fall into concerning this matter. 4. As important as it is, one must never acquire secular or worldly learning while being ignorant of one’s fard al-‘ayn – knowledge of one’s “personal religious obligations.” Thus, whilst censuring those who adopt such a negligent attitude, the Qur’an says: They know the outward appearances of the life of this world but are heedless of the Hereafter. [30:7] In light of this verse, al-Hasan al-Basri once protested: ‘By ALLAH! One of them knows about this world to the extent he can pick up a coin and tell you its weight and worth. Yet he doesn’t know how to pray properly! 9 Yet how many still choose to skate on thin ice even today? For how many Muslims are there who are versed in the finer details of politics, football, fashion, celebrity culture, or just the latest social media gossip, yet are woefully ignorant about their fard al-‘ayn duties; content with leaving their religious knowledge at a precarious or infantile level. 5. The ideal way to learn is to study with qualified teachers who have been granted license (‘ijazah) to teach by recognised scholars. This next axiom is key: inna hādha’l-‘ilma dīnun fa yanẓuru ‘amman ta’khudhūna dīnakum – ‘Indeed, this knowledge is religion; so look from whom you take your religion’. In the absence of such teachers, form a study group, basing it on humility and the ability to say, “I do not know” when needed. Think, reflect, ponder, question – but never invent your own rulings or fatwas. Instead, cling tenaciously to the divine order: Ask the people of knowledge if you do not know. [21:7] Knowing this will help save us from the pitfalls many have stumbled into, by taking as teachers charlatans, DIY-da‘is and other pretenders unfit and unqualified for teaching sacred knowledge. 6. We must know our own level and harbour no pretensions about how little we really do know. Simple ignorance (jahl baṣīt) may not always be blameworthy. For the act of asking and being answered is usually cure enough for such lack of knowledge. But compounded ignorance (jahl murakkab) – ignorance of actually being ignorant! – is a different kettle of fish. One often finds those who paddle in such a pitiful state to be highly argumentative, hostile, bigoted and an enemy to the righteous. To this end, al-Khalīl b. Aḥmad once said: ‘There are four types of men: [1] One who knows and knows he knows; he is learned, so follow him! [2] One who knows and knows not that he knows; he is asleep, so wake him! [3] One who knows not and knows he knows not; he seeks to learn, so teach him! [4] One who knows not and knows not that he knows not; he is a fool, so shun him! (10)7. Lastly, it’s vital that knowledge be internalized and rooted in the heart, in order to beget reverent awe before ALLAH and humility before Man. Sound intention is key. Mālik b. Dīnār said: ‘Whoever learns knowledge so as to act by it, his knowledge humbles him. Whoever seeks it for other than that, only increases in pride by it.’11 Imam al-Dhahabi advised: ‘Whoever seeks knowledge in order to act by it, his knowledge humbles him and causes him to weep at himself. But one who learns knowledge just to teach, to give fatwas, or to brag and show-off, becomes foolish, arrogant, argumentative, perishes in his vanity and is despised by others: He is indeed successful who purifies it [his soul], and is a failure who corrupts it. [91:9-10].’12

Wa’l-salatu wa’l-salamu ‘ala rasuli’Llah. The first thing I’d like to point out is that the idea of knowing, doing & becoming is not mine. Rather, it is something which the scholars are generally united upon, even if they may sometimes express it in different ways. Knowing, doing & becoming refers to: knowing faith, doing works of faith, then becoming transformed by faith. Having laid out the bare bones of the matter, allow me to put some flesh on those bones.

1. The concept of knowing, doing and becoming has its starting point in the celebrated Hadith of Gabriel (jibril). This is the hadith which tells how the Angel Gabriel came to a open gathering of Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam), in the guise of a man, and put three core questions to him: what is faith (iman); what is [outward] submission (islam); and what is [spiritual] excellence (ihsan)? Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam) replied to the first question by saying that faith is firm and unwavering belief in Allah, the angels, the prophets, the revealed scriptures, the Last Day, and divine decree (qadr). To the next, he ﷺ replied that submission entailed uttering the two testimonies of faith (shahadah), performing the five daily prayers, giving the annual zakat, fasting during the month of Ramadan and undertaking pilgrimage to the Ka‘bah in Makkah. To the last: ‘That you worship Allah as though seeing Him; and through you see Him not, know that He sees you.’ Later, the Prophet ﷺ disclosed: ‘That was Gabriel; he came to teach you your religion.’ (1) 2. The significance in the above hadith is that the entire religion was encapsulated in three spheres: iman, islam and ihsan. The first is about knowing what to believe in; the second, doing those deeds which give concrete expression to one’s beliefs; the third is becoming transformed by those beliefs and deeds. This, then, is the basis for: knowing, doing & becoming. On the merits of this hadith, Qadi ‘Iyad said: ‘This hadith entails an explanation of all the duties of worship, inward and outward, from those [related to] the bonds of faith, actions of the limbs, inward sincerity and protecting actions from the dangers [of non-acceptance] – to the extent that all of the shari‘ah sciences return back to it and branch off from it.’ (2) 3. Knowing (‘ilm), doing (‘aml) & becoming (hal) equate to iman, islam and ihsan. These three, in turn, equate to the Islamic sciences of beliefs (‘aqidah), positive law (fiqh) and spirituality (suluk, tazkiyah, or tasawwuf). Now spirituality is somewhat of a blurry and nebulous word. Today, spirituality can mean anything from lighting an incense stick, hugging a tree, feeling elated by the natural world; art; or a piece of classical music, to long walks, quiet reflection, yoga, meditation, or organized religion. As far as Islam is concerned, spirituality relates to the Spirit; the ruh. Or to the soul (nafs). Spirituality, in Islam, is about traversing the path to Allah by acts of sincere, loving submission. It’s about, as some spiritual masters have put it, how to journey into the presence of the King of kings (kayfiyat al-suluk ila hadrati malik al-muluk). It entails inwardly purifying the soul from its vices (radha’il) and adorning it with virtues (fada’il) so that, with its labours of love, it is gradually weaned away from its distractions and its opposition to the divine will. This is when such a soul has been made worthy of divine acceptance and is given to enter the divine presence: But those who feared the standing before their Rabb and curbed their soul’s passions, the Garden is their abode. [79:40-41] 4. Knowing, doing & becoming has levels. There are some matters a Muslim is obligated to know, do and become; while other things are preferred to know, do and become. This is seen in this hadith: ‘Allah, exalted is He, said: “Whoever shows enmity to a friend (wali) of Mine, I shall be at war with him. My servant does not draw near to Me with anything more loved by Me than the religious duties I enjoin on him, and My servant continues to draw near to Me with optional works so that I shall love him.” (3) What this make clear is that there’s no way to Allah’s walayah – love, sanctity and closeness – save by fulfilling the obligations (fara’id) then the optional works of faith (nawafil). The first encircles us in Allah’s love; the second endears us to Allah even more so. One keeps in mind however: man shaghalahu’l-fard ‘an al-nafl fa huwa ma‘dhur, wa man shaghalahu’l-nafl ‘an al-fard fa huwa maghrur – ‘One busied by obligatory deeds, away from optional ones, is excused. One busy in optional acts, away from obligatory ones, is deluded.’ (4) 5. About the obligations in ‘aqidah, fiqh and suluk, Shaykh Jamal al-Din al-Qasimi said: Rasulallah(sallallahu alayhi wa salam)said: “Seeking knowledge is compulsory on every Muslim. (5) This entails understanding tawhid and to know about [the uniqueness of] Allah’s Essence (dhat) and Attributes (sifat). It involves knowing the acts of worship (‘ibadat), the lawful and prohibited, and what is lawful and forbidden in terms of social transactions (mu‘amalat). It further includes learning the praiseworthy spiritual states of the heart, like patience, gratitude, generosity, good character and companionship, truthfulness and sincerity as well as the blameworthy ones, like Rancour, envy, treachery, pride, ostentation, anger, enmity, malice and miserliness. Learning how to acquire the first [set of traits] and to eliminate the second is as much a personal duty as ensuring the validity of one’s beliefs, acts of worship and social transactions. (6) 6. Every Islamic curriculum, methodology (manhaj), or claim to orthodoxy not having the Hadith of Jibril and the Hadith of Allah’s Wali – the idea of knowing, doing & becoming (iman, islam & ihsan) – at its core, is incomplete, imbalanced and unsound. Hadith Jibril is generally felt to be the most succinct summary of the entire din, which touches upon every aspect of belief, practice or spiritual growth (‘he came to teach you your religion’). Indeed, al-Haytami says of the hadith that ‘it is dubbed ‘the mother of the Sunnah (umm al-sunnah) like al-Fatihah is called ‘the mother of the Qur’an (umm al-qur’an)’, since it envelops the Sunnah’s entire message. (7) For faith to be sound and come to true fruition, iman, islam and ihsan must be brought into an equilibrium; that is, ‘aqidah, fiqh and suluk must be in balance and harmony. Problems usually occur in the Muslim personality and collective when they are out of kilter. So, for instance, if fiqh isn’t accompanied by serious commitment to suluk, it often results in dry legalism and puritanical behavior. Without fiqh and adherence to the law, suluk is just self-deception or airy-fairy sentiments Without fiqh, ‘aqidah is no more than empty slogans. In the absence of suluk, ‘aqidah becomes blind ideology. Yet without ‘aqidah, both fiqh and suluk are sterile or futile. Thus all three are indispensable. In short: without ‘aqidah, there is just idolatry and heresy; without fiqh, vanity and futility; and without suluk, hypocrisy and pretentious piety. (7). While it is categorically true that the Qur’an says (51:56) we were created to worship Allah, the Hadith of Jibril informs us how this worship should be: ‘That you worship Allah as though seeing Him; and while you see Him not, know that He sees you.’ It is, I think, an indictment of sorts on an individual’s source of learning if, after some time, he or she hasn’t been led to or taught this all-inclusive understanding of Islam. If that be so, one needs to seriously question one’s source of knowledge and learning, since it smacks of treachery to the trust of teaching. The area that is usually ignored, treated lightly, undermined, or even scoffed at, is that of ihsan – the becoming dimension. As this is all too often the case, let me say this much about it. 8. Masters of the inward life say that ihsan during acts of worship has three degrees: (8) (i) Performing the act excellently and with proper decorum (adab), by at least fulfilling its conditions (shurut), pillars (arkan) and obligations (wajibat). (ii) Performing the act with awareness of Allah’s presence and watchful gaze – known as muraqabah. The shaykhs of ihsan teach us that if, when recalling the fact that Allah sees you, a shyness emerges in your heart which drives you to exert yourself in Allah’s obedience or deters you from disobedience, then you possess something of the realities of muraqabah, or vigilance. (iii) Beyond this lofty degree lies that of mushahadah – spiritually witnessing Allah; or “seeing” Him with the eye of the heart (bi ‘ayn al-basirah). This is where faith has flooded the heart and filled it to the brim, due to being immersed in Allah; lost in contemplation of Him; and witnessing His hand in all things and behind all things. Ibn Rajab al-Hanbali said that it is the degree where: ‘the heart is illumined with faith, and the inner sight arrives at experiential knowledge so that the Unseen becomes, at it were, seen (huwa an yutanawwara’l-qalb bi’l-iman wa tanfudha’l-basirah fi’l-‘irfan hatta yasira’l-ghayb ka’l-‘ayan).’9 Attaining muraqabah is, we are told, rare. Arriving at mushahadah is rarer still. It can’t be gained by any effort on our part; rather it is sheer gift and grace from Allah to His sincere devotees, lovers and saints. 9. It is the transformation, the becoming, which is the goal. That is, it’s not only about praying, fasting or doing other acts of piety (taqwa); it’s about cultivating one’s soul, so as to make piety an ingrained habit. In other words, it’s about becoming one of the pious (muttaqun). It isn’t just about giving zakat or some charity (sadaqah), but becoming, in one’s nature, of the charitable (mutasaddiqun). Nor is it just about patience, making dhikr, speaking truth, or doing a deed or two of rectification. It’s about being rooted in these traits, to become of those who are patient (sabirun), truthful (sadiqun), constantly remember Allah (dhakirun), and are healers and rectifiers (muslihun). That is, it’s about the becoming. Above all, it’s about becoming mukhlisun – those who purify their worship making it sincerely and exclusively for Allah; muhsinun – those who worship Allah upon spiritual excellence; and muhibbun – true lovers of Him. In the religion of Islam, it’s very much about the becoming.
