Aasalmulaikum bros n sis, hope ur all doing well, not been on here for months now so thought i would kwikly come on here whillst i have the chance to giv my salaams.
inshaAllah you and your family are all fine, hows Abdullah doing? :
Our Lord! Verily, we have heard the call of one calling to Faith: 'Believe in your Lord,' and we have believed.
Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and expiate from us our evil deeds, and make us die (in the state of righteousness) along with Al-Abrar
Its good to hear from my dear bros n sis after so long.
We moved to Leicester 3 months ago hence why ive not been here for so long and neither has dawud, were stopping with family at the mo untill we find our own place. kinda trying with the council for a house but theyre crap n u have to lie through your teeth to get anything from them, but inshallah as its over crowded here we might be able to get something, please make dua.
dawud and abdullah are gud alhumdulillah, abdullah is nine months now, i cant believe how fast the time goes, you realise wen u have children how precious time is. hes beautiful mashallah, make dua he becomes a strong pious mujahid.
leicester is good however me and my husband call it, a city of muslims but of no friends, we're both quite down about the fact that although there are so many muslims here who have big beards n thobes n nikabs n hijabs, alhumdulillah, but the people are very reserved, my husband has been going to the local masjid for three months now, and no one has even tried to befriend him. he got quite down about it because he misses his friends, the muslims here really need to wake up.
its really sad because there is no unity here at all. thers so much division between tablighs, deobandis, etc etc, its so upsetting. i miss that aspect of sheffield because although there is devision there also but its no where near as much as here. i hardly ever get salams from sisters even tho theres like hundreds of them round here. mashallah they wear the nikab but it seems like its a culture here rather then something they do due to love n fear of allah swt. theres none of that sister hood here, in sheffield we all knew eachother from events, talks, husbands friends wives etc and spoke to eachother to keep that sisterhood alive and it was so special.
theres a bazillion masaajid here but no sister sections. theyre into policics and hapilly vote away into the kufr system.
listeraly ppl physically fight against brothers whom they believe are misguided or just happen to disagree with them on some issues or speak the haq.
who are putting these imams in charge of the houses of allah?
we're hoping to move to an area called st matthews because thats a strong somali area and mashallah the somalis have got their head screwed on and return my salams and actually smile at me, they are much stronger muslims in every sense of the word. i know i might sound like im generalising but that realy is the case here. so far i havent made a single friend. its very lonely being a muslim in leicester. even tho the muslims are at large here, there is no bond between us.
we went to a couple of excellent talks on the conditions of shahada and the negations of islam, me and my husband were blown away by the talks, the speaker was speaking the haq, he wasnt shying away from topics like kufr, n jihad etc. it was in a huge lecture hall..how many people turned up?...around 8! why?....because the speaker happened to follow a sheikh whom they didnt agree with. subhanllah. its messed up here, there is no dawah work taking place what so ever. the only thing that is keeping us here is that we have a good arabic teacher and my husband has a course he wants to do here so that he can take those skills to another country. as soon as weve done that we're out of here to NWFP!
