Asalaamu alaykum. What are your 5 favourite Muslim blogs? And why?
 
^ this one made me cry.



أن رجلا من أهل البادية كان اسمه زاهر بن حزام أو حرام ، قال : وكان النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم يحبه وكان دميما ، فأتاه النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم يوما وهو يبيع متاعه ، فاحتضنه من خلفه وهو لا يبصره ، فقال : أرسلني ! من هذا ؟ فالتفت فعرف النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ، فجعل لا يألو ما ألزق ظهره بصدر النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم حين عرفه ، وجعل النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول : من يشتري العبد ، فقال : يا رسول الله ! إذا والله تجدني كاسدا ، فقال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم : لكن عند الله لست بكاسد ، أو قال : لكن عند الله أنت غال

“There was a man from the people of the desert whose name was Zahir bin Hizam (or bin Haram). And he was loved by the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم – He was (also) not of a pleasant (facial) appearance. The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم came to him one day, while he (Zahir) was selling his goods (in the market) and embraced him (from behind) so that he (Zahir) could not see who it was [nb. in another narration he صلى الله عليه وسلم placed his hands over his eyes to stop him from looking behind]. Zahir asked: ‘Tell me, who is this?’, he turned and found it was the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم, so he continued to rub his back (and cling) onto the chest * (of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم). Upon this, the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم (held him and) said (in jest to those around him): ‘Who would like to buy a slave (from me)’? He (Zahir) said: ‘O Messenger of Allaah, by Allaah you will find me to be a poor sell (i.e. I’ll be of no value)’. The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said: ‘But with Allaah you are not unsellable?’ [in another narration 'But with Allaah you are valuable'].”

God I'd give everything to have lived then and been loved by Allah & his messenger in such a way so that I'd know and there wouldn't be a sliver of doubt in my heart!
 
I wish that too. I wish I was born in the midst of a desert under a starry night, not far away from Medina ...

Wish I could be on the other side of time, away from this pathetic modernity and the humognous fitnas of our times which have engulfed us alive, by the side of the greatest man, so that I could have at least the treasures of peace in my heart and epic personalities to engrave in my eyes ...

The Messenger of Allah (Salallahu Alayhi Wasallam) said : “The most beloved to me from my Ummah will come after me: one of them would wish that he could give his family and wealth for a glimpse at me.” [Sahih al-Jami as-Saghir; 1003]

Jazaki Allah khyran though it's so like a Muslim to bring gladtiding to the believers ... Bashirr al'momneen :)
