			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div><font size="4"><font color="red"><b>The Origins and Formation of Hizbollah</b></font></font><br />
 <br />
<img src="http://jewishdailyreport.files.wordpress.com/2010/07/hezbollah-2.jpg" border="0" alt="" /><br />
 <br />
<font color="black">Introduction </font><br />
 <br />
<font color="black">Hizbollah is a political Shia group backed by the Rafidi Shia of Iran and is a network that spans across many countries and whose aims are to serve the Shia cause, ideologically and politically. This political party was set up formally in Lebanon in 1985CE although it's initial activities started around 1982CE. This party was set up by the aspirations of the Iranian backed Lebanese Shia. Initially however this movement had the name &quot;<u>Harakah Amal al-Shi'iyyah</u>&quot; (Movement of *!*!*!*!e Hope), but then it broaded its horizons seeking to gain more popularity and changed the name to &quot;<u>Amal al-Islamiyyah</u>&quot; (Islamic Hope), this being an offshoot of the main movement. Under this guise of being spokesperson and defender (of Islam), it spread Shi'ism in Lebanon and to other parts of the world. However, there were many crimes and barbarities associated with the original group (Harakah Amal al-Shi'iyyah) which put the child-group into the position of having to defend itself, and as a tactical move, they simply created a new party and this is what is known today as <u>Hizbollah</u>.</font><br />
 <br />
<font color="black">In an era where people do not understand the religion, nor fathom the correct, authentic aqidah, and nor have an appreciation for the study of history, parties such as Hizbollah come along in this type of environment to play a dangerous role against the Islamic nation. Hence, it is upon Ahl al-Sunnah to know the dangers of this subversive group, &quot;<b>...so that the way of the criminals becomes evident</b>&quot; (6:55). </font><br />
 <br />
<font color="black">The Founder of Harakah Amal al-Shi'iyyah </font><blockquote><font color="black">The founder of the original parent group is <b>Musa al-Sadr</b>, an Iranian national, he was born in 1928 and reached Lebanon in 1958, he was given Lebanese nationality. And he is a student of al-Khomeini and also has close ties with al-Khomeini. The son of al-Khomeini, Ahmad is married to the neice of Musa al-Sadr, and the nephew of Musa al-Sadr, Murtaza al-Tabtaba'i is married to the granddaughter of al-Khomeini. Musa al-Sadr set up <i>Harakah Amal al-Shi'iyyah</i> as an armed group in the north of Lebanon and in Beirut and there was cooperation between it and the national forces. Al-Sadr also played the right-hand man for any Nusayri that entered Lebanon from Syria, and when the Nusayri Syrian army entered Lebanon, al-Sadr changed face from a Lebanese nationalist to a Nusayri Batini colonizer, and he took certain steps, from them a) ordering the officer Ibrahim Shahin to split from the Arab army and he set up a Lebanese army allied to Syria (the Nusayri Batinis), and in the south, the leader Ahmad al-Mu'aamiree also split and joined the Nusayri Batini army (that had come in from Syria, and b) he (al-Sadr) set up meetings with the Roman Orthodox and Roman Catholic bishops and other individuals and representatives. All of this was to help form a regional government that would be controlled by the Syrian Nusayris. These activities indicate the true loyalties of Musa al-Sadr, which is to the Shi'ites of Iran and the Syrian Nusayri Batinis (who themselves are an extreme sect of the Imaamiyyah Shi'ah - see here) against a general Sunni Arab population. </font><br />
 <br />
<font color="black">In 1985 the Harakah Amal al-Shi'iyyah's forces besieged the Palestinian refugee camps in South Lebanon (and were aided by some Christian factions). This was supported by the Nusayri Baatinee leader of Syria, al-Assad, who did not want the presence of Palestinians in the south to invite any major invasion from Israel and also because he wanted the area to be dominated by the Shia. The battles became known as &quot;the war of the camps&quot; and the Shia committed great atrocities against the Palestinians in the camps. They killed old men, women and children in refugee camps, they also killed some Palestinians in the hospitals of Beirut, slitting their throats (reported in the Sunday Telegraph 27/5/1985), and their militias gathered tens of wounded into the camps and killed them, and witnesses also reported that they saw the militias of Harakah Amal kill more than forty-five wounded in the Gaza Hospital and its surrounding areas. These militia, after taking over the refugee camp of Sabra, went into the streets of Western Beirut on 2/6/1985 chanting, &quot;<i>Laa ilaaha illallaah, al-'Arab a'daa Allaah</i>&quot; (...the Arabs are the enemies of Allaah...). And Kuwaiti News (4/6/1985) and al-Watan (3/6/1985) both reported that the Militia of Harakah Amal kidnapped twenty-five Palestinian girls from around the camps of Sabra. </font><br />
 <br />
<font color="black">All of the above indicates that the Harakah Amal al-Shi'iyyah major objective was to get rid of Palestinian Sunni presence in the region, and there was understanding and co-operation between the Jews and the Shia from years prior. Haydar al-Daayikh one of the leaders of Harakah al-Amal said, &quot;<i>We used to carry weapons in the face of Isael, but Israel open its arms to us and loved to aid us, Israel aided us in exterminating the Palestinian Wahhabi terrorist from the South (of Lebanon)</i>&quot; (Meeting with Haydar by Arab News Weekly, 24/3/1983). </font><br />
 <br />
<font color="black">And Subhee al-Tufaylee in his meeeting with al-Sharq al-Awsat newspaper (25th September 2003 / 29th Rajab 1424H) said that when the Israeli army entered Lebanon and destroyed the Palestinian factions (in the South) with participation of the Shia, the Shia of South Lebanon stood to receive the Zionist Israeli troops, and this is confirmed by Hasan Nasr Allaah as documented in the book Sajal al-Noor (p. 227) issued by Hizbollah itself. </font><br />
</blockquote><font color="black">What Are the Names of the Founding Members of Hizbollah in Lebanon </font><blockquote><font color="black">The Rafidi state of Iran set up the new movement, Hizbollah, through the agency of the following *!*!*!*!es: Muhammad Husayn Fadl Allaah (labelled &quot;the Khomeini of Lebanon&quot;), Subhee al-Tufaylee, <u>Hasan Nasr Allah</u> (labelled as &quot;the Khomeini of the Arabs&quot;), Ibraaheem al-Ameen, Abbaas Mawsawi, Na'eem Qaasim, Zuhayr Kanj, Muhammad Yazbik and Raaghib Harb. Both the Harakah Amal Shi'iyyah and Hizbollah take directions from Iran and are essentially proxies for Iran in the region. </font><br />
 <br />
<img src="http://www.asianews.it/files/img/nasrallah.jpg" border="0" alt="" /><br />
 <br />
 <br />
<font color="black">As for Hasan Abd al-Kareem Nasr Allaah, the &quot;Khomeini of the Arabs&quot;, he was born in 1960CE. He travelled to al-Najaf, Iraq to study religious knowledge (i.e. the Imaamiyyah Shi'ah knowledge) He was made an official for Harakah Amal al-Shi'iyyah in 1982 but he later separated it to join Hizbollah (a child organization), and he was an official for it in Beirut in 1985, and he worked his way up until he became the general leader in 1992 after the assassination of the previous leader al-Mawsawi. </font><br />
</blockquote><font color="black"><b>Openly-Declared and Hidden Goals </b></font><blockquote><font color="black">The <b>openly-declared goals</b> of the Hizbollah in Lebanon are that it is an organization opposed ot the Israeli occupation of Lebanon and that it wishes to liberate the sanctified place of Palestine (Bayt al-Maqdis), but this is simply a means of deceiving the Muslims, to blind them and divert them (the Muslims) away from their (the Shia's) real goals, and to make them (the Muslims) inclined towards them, and this they achieve through a policy of serving social and human needs in the society with support from Iran. </font><br />
 <br />
<font color="black"><b>As for the true and real hidden goals</b> they are to spread Shi'ism in Lebanon, to maintain a permanent Shia presence and to take control over all elements of strength in the country (political, social, military, economical). And this is part of an overall agenda to prepare the region for the advancement of Iran and its religous and political objectives. </font><br />
</blockquote><font color="black"><b>Source:</b> Adapted from <i>Hizbullah al-Raafidee, Tarikh Aswad wa Iftiraa'aat</i> (The Rafidi Hizbollah, a History of Darkness and Fabrications) of Sayyid Husayn al-Affaanee (Dar al-Affaanee, Cairo 1st edition, 1428H). </font></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Who are Ahmediyyas?<br />
 <br />
Ahmediyyas name, comes from the founder of the heretical sect, Mirza Gulam Ahmed Qadianis. Qadiyan the city name in India, so he gives his real name not be mixed up with someone else who may have this same name. This wretch was born 1835 and died in 1908, in India. In 1880 he founded his own version of Islam, in Punjab, India. It happened just a year after the British invasion of India. It turned out not so accidentally, because the British Ministry of Colonies had priority duty to break and preventing Muslims in India, because they only represent a potential force of resistance to this invasion of the European imperialist Satan. To understand all the meanness and cunning colonial powers, be sure to read my translation of the booklet &quot;British spies Hemfera confessions&quot;, which is on my Islamic website.<br />
 <br />
The city Qadiyani, India, Mirza Gulam Ahmed published his book Al-Wasiyat, where he says that he is the promised Messiah (Jesus).<br />
 <br />
Ahmediyyas the sect's beliefs, their distortion abandoned Islam and Muslims, though, bad faith and hypocrisy, still adorns the name of Islam and Muslims. The Ahmediyyas claim that they are the best and only true Muslims. Among other heretical beliefs they are best known for this:<br />
 <br />
<b>1-</b>They say that Isa (Jesus) alayhi salaam should be executed but that he did not and that he died a natural death. Later he lived and left his tomb (a cave) and went to Kashmir, India, where he taught Bible and then died a natural death.<br />
 <br />
<b>2-</b>They are separated from Islam and its assertion that the soul of Jesus and Prophet Muhammad s.a.w.s. (peace be on with him) connect (ie incarnate) in the form of a man. And this man was none other than Gulam Ahmed. They argue that there will be another Mahdi except him.<br />
 <br />
<b>3-</b>They distort the meaning of Quranic verses, especially those who bosses Jihad (fighting in Allah's way). They say that in Islam there is no combat weapons than words and by reference to Islam. That explanation certainly fits those (Christians, Jews, etc.) who want to subjugate the Muslims to their will. In addition, he has issued an official fatwa that it is haram (forbidden) Jihad against the British Crown. Ahmediyyas were denied a clear verses is hereby ordered that armed Jihad, which is the consensus of all Sunnis, and even the Shining, an act performed in the framework of Islam. Ahmediyyas have been declared murtadi (those who have left Islam). Mirza Gulam Ahmed was drinking alcohol and declared it permissible and even advisable, under the pretext that the same moderate drinking is beneficial to health.<br />
 <br />
His son, Bishr Ahmad, wrote the book &quot;The New World Order&quot; that is full of claims and unbeleiver's insinuation.<br />
 <br />
Anvar Muhammad Shah, the great and pious scholar from India, moved to the eternal world of 1933, says in his books of Mirza Gulam Ahmed Qadianis:<br />
 <br />
&quot;He does not believe that the Isa (alayhi salaam) will return from Heaven. He says that Isa (alayhi salaam), hanged, killed. He also claims that Jesus had a father Nadar Yusuf (Joseph the Carpenter). He and the walls are heinous lies and false charges about this great Prophet of Allah. He claims that he was a Prophet and that brings a new Sharia. He argues that the verse that hints back Isa'a (alaihi salaam) on the ground, actually provides for his own appearance in this world. He changes the verses of the Qur'an and the Hadith of the Prophet s.a.w.s. as such it fits. He denies the Islamic facts are not necessarily believe it. He denies that the Prophet Muhammad s.a.w.s. the last Prophet and mostsuperior man. He claims to have thousands of miracles that are His miracles greater than all the other Prophets together. He argues that many verses of the Quran and praise him predict its occurrence. Gulam Ahmed who belong to the Tatar Mongol race. He was zindik (unbeliever) and belonged to the sect Ismaili before founding his own . He has read many books and was very eloquent and ports. Most hated Sunni Muslims. This is probably the reason why the British bass he chose to break the Muslims in India. British have long been worked out plans for breaking Islam from the inside, but they should someone suitable to carry out the work. They chose Mirza and showered him money and political support. He first became known as Bahai, and then declared mujadidd (restorer of Islam) and at the end of Mahdi. And even that he was not enough and was subsequently told that he was Isa (alayhi salaam). When he was and it became insufficient for his satanic intent to destroy the original Islam, he declared that the new and the Prophet, and that brought the new religion of humanity. He declared that the city Qadiyan his Temple in Jerusalem. A Lahore, where he died, that his Medina. He made the cemetery and gave him the name Makbarat-ul-Jannah. He claimed that whoever is buried in this cemetery is certainly go to Jannah (Paradise). He called his wife &quot;Mother of the faithful&quot; that belongs only honorable Prophet's wives. He called kafire those who have followed his &quot;Ummah.&quot; He said that his greatest miracle of marriage in Paradise under named Muhammadi Baygum. He argues that the marriage is shown to him through wahy (divine revelation). He has released his new religion 1888 year. he went to Hell (Inferno), 1908. Those who did not believe him he is called a kafir (unbeliever) .<br />
 <br />
He says on page 148 of his book Hakika-tul-wahy, &quot;This Ummah Allah has created the Messiah Jesus to be superior. When he (Jesus) was alive today, he could not do what I am doing. Wonderful things that I do with him not could be found. &quot; On page 107 of the same book he says that the Prophet mentioned in this verse, &quot;As we send the Prophet to Pharaoh, so we sent the Prophet to you,&quot; is actually a he. On page 68 of the same book he says, &quot;Allah sent me as a Prophet. He told me:&quot; You are the promised Messiah. ' God gave me 300.000 wonders. In his second book Barahimul Ahmediyyas, he argues that his superior miracles miracles of Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam). There are 150 Hadith that attest to the Prophet Muhammad s.a.w.s. the last Messenger of Allah. Thirty of them are the most reliable collections of Hadith known as kutub-and-Sitta. Undoubtedly it was announced that the Isa (Jesus) alayhi salaam return from Heaven to earth. They all deny the fact, so are the consensus of the ulama declared non-Muslims. Anyone who dies and is known to have died as Ahmediyyas or Qadiyani, can not be buried at the Muslim cemetery and haram his funeral worship or pray to Allah for him. Ahmediyyas or Qadiyani the same thing, except that the chief Ahmed heirs could not agree on who will be the successor after the death of Gulam Ahmed, and was founded by two branches of the same sect. Some have called the second Ahmediyyas and Qadianis. No significant differences in their beliefs. Ahmediyyas are particularly active in recruiting ignorant Muslims in countries such as Bosnia or another, where the ulema (clerics) failed with energetic propagation of true Islamic principles and practices. They are also easily spread into non-Muslim countries, Hindu pacifist advocating some form of Islam in which all people are the same God.<br />
 <br />
On the 19th of January 2007, Mirza Masroor Ahmad the current leader and fifth successor to Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, regarded as the representative of God on Earth delivered his regular <i>&#8220;Friday Sermon&#8221;</i> on the topic of the <i>&#8220;Divine attribute of Al-Rahman (The Gracious)&#8221;.</i><br />
In this lecture he stated the following, <i>&#8220;...rejection of the Imam of the age (i.e. Mirza Ghulam Ahmad) in itself takes one to the satanic abyss and one who is taken in by satanic temptation cannot have any connection with the Gracious God. To follow the Satan is in effect to worship him.&#8221;</i><br />
 <br />
Therefore you should realise that we are all worshipping Satan because we reject Mirza Ghulam Ahmad. It does not matter if you are Muslim, Christian, Jewish, or follow any other religion. When you put your hands up to ask of God, you are asking from Satan in accordance with the Ahmadiyya belief.<br />
 <br />
Hazrat Ali Ibn Abi Talib (RA) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said <i>&#8220;Do not tell a lie against me for whoever tells a lie against me (intentionally) then he will surely enter the Hell-fire.&#8221; (Sahih Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 3, #106)</i> This is the extent of forging sayings to the Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) and yet We find the like of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad blatantly fabricating ahadith to support his position.<br />
 <br />
For example, he claims <i>&#8220;it appears from the Ahadith that the Mahdi of the latter days will first be rejected as kafir and people will turn against him and will revile him.&#8221; (The Essence of Islam, Volume 4, Page 213)</i> This is a blatant lie and notice he uses the plural ahadith and not the singular hadith. In actual fact, allegiance to Imam Mahdi will be against his will as per the saying, <i>&#8220;...some of the people of Mecca will come to him, bring him out against his will and swear allegiance to him between the corner and the maqam... He will remain seven years, then die, and the Muslims will pray over him.&#8221; (Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 36, #4273)</i> How can one then propose that Imam Mahdi will be rejected as an unbeliever as per the belief of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad which he attributes to the Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW)?<br />
 <br />
The only reason he intentionally fabricated this <i>&#8220;hadith&#8221;</i> is to support his position. The fact is that Mirza Ghulam Ahmad was rejected, reviled and labelled an unbeliever. He therefore fabricated this saying to support his rejection. The Muslim population of India, statistically, was 98% illiterate and therefore unable to corroborate his forgery. We ask, Ahmadis, where is this <i>&#8220;hadith&#8221;</i>? The abode of an intentional fabricator of a single <i>hadith</i> is Hell.<br />

 <br />
Saudi Arabia is planning to turn the holy city of Makkah into a ‘smart city’ in an effort to improve services to millions of Muslim pilgrims, <i>Arab News</i> reported.<br />
 <br />
“We have new design plans for Makkah, Jeddah and Taif,” Makkah governor Prince Khaled Al-Faisal told a meeting on smart city applications earlier this week.<br />
 <br />
“It’s our opportunity to take the initiative now. All we need is good management and a strong will to start the project.”<br />
 <br />
The term ‘Smart City’ refers to the creation of an innovation network to develop and deliver better e-services to citizens and businesses.<br />
 <br />
<img src="http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcR3-Qgj1yCOTq5S3kgS5SrTAHuDcg3D2CR_ClIfWiIJE17ZaoSa6A" border="0" alt="" /><br />

 <br />
&quot;There is no excuse for not making our cities smart,&quot; Prince Khaled said.<br />
&quot;We should be pioneers in making our cities smart.&quot;<br />
 <br />
He argued that Saudi Arabia has all capabilities to turn Makkah and other areas into smart cities.<br />
 <br />
&quot;We have all the factors to make this project successful,” he said.<br />
 <br />
“We have a great leadership that is ready to take initiatives. We have peace and security and we have enough funds.”<br />
 <br />
Muslims from around the world pour into Makkah every year to perform hajj, one of the five pillars of Islam.<br />
 <br />
Twelve million pilgrims visit the city every year with the numbers expected to increase to 17 million by 2025.<br />
 <br />
During hajj season, nearly three million Muslims embark on hajj.<br />
 <br />
<b>Serving Pilgrims</b><br />
 <br />
The Makkah governor said that the smart city project aims to improve services to Muslim pilgrims.<br />
 <br />
&quot;We want to carry out Hajj and `Umrah services in the best manner, in line with international standards,&quot; he said.<br />
 <br />
&quot;We have to make pilgrims happy by extending the best possible services.&quot;<br />
 <br />
<img src="http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQeK7NL2Nwyz42oMLyR9ZQouf6EGNAbSc-Ntp-iJtE9gyzNwzlliw" border="0" alt="" /><br />
 <br />
He said that plans to develop the holy city were prepared with different parties to create more favorable atmosphere for pilgrims.<br />
 <br />
&quot;The plan centers on the Holy Kaaba because it was the reason for the presence of people in this part of the world,&quot; he said.<br />
 <br />
Saudi Arabia has carried out several projects to develop Makkah, including expanding the area of Al-Masjid al-Haram and the hajj terminals.<br />
 <br />
But the expansion projects, however, drew fire from some residents for demolishing the cultural identity of the city.<br />
 <br />
Prince Khaled rejected perceptions that Muslims are a third-world community.<br />
 <br />
&quot;We are a progressive society. Our religion Islam calls for progress. We'll not accept less than top position and there is nothing impossible.”<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div><img src="http://www.bosasopress.com/bpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/3572495_f520.jpg" border="0" alt="" /><br />
 <br />
ABUJA – A leading Muslim group has launched Nigeria’s first Muslim radio station in an effort to clear misconceptions about Islam and to orientate the country’s Muslims about their faith.<br />
 <br />
“The Voice of Ummah or Quds Radio hopes to fill that gap, providing high quality Islamic contents to more a million listeners in Nigeria,” Daood Imran Molaasan, President of the Jama’atu Ta’awun Muslimeen (TAWUN), told OnIslam.net.<br />
 <br />
Owners of the radio say it aims to correct misconceptions fuelled by Christians-dominated media in Nigeria about Islam.<br />
 <br />
“The station’s programming reflects a desire to reach people on a different level, to broaden the horizons of all listeners,” Molaasan said.<br />
 <br />
“In the race for excellence, there is no finish line and The Voice of Ummah programming and broadcasting philosophies will Inshallah be a testimony to that.”<br />
 <br />
Muslims make up nearly 55 percent of Nigeria’s 140 million population, while Christians account for nearly 40 percent.<br />
 <br />
Nigeria’s Muslims have long complained of media bias in covering their affairs, especially in light of attacks launched by militant Boko Haram group.<br />
 <br />
Nigeria has more than 40 private radio stations, 13 of them owned by Christian bodies.<br />
 <br />
Muslims did not own any radio station.<br />
 <br />
The TAWUN leader said the decision to float a Muslim radio station flows from the negative media portrayal of Islam and Muslims.<br />
 <br />
“Lack of Muslim ownership of media house in Nigeria has affected grossly in the propagation of Islamic message (Da’wah),” he said.<br />
 <br />
“The effect could be physically seen in the anal of attitude and behavior Muslims put up in the society, especially the Muslim children.”<br />
 <br />
<b>Educating Muslims</b><br />
 <br />
Owners say that the radio also aims to orientate Nigeria’s Muslims about their faith.<br />
 <br />
“The Voice of Ummah is designed to encourage listeners to think, to grow, and create an awareness of various ideologies that will assist them both on a social and spiritual level,” Molaasan said.<br />
 <br />
”Programming will cover issues of global relevance, from finance and technology to lifestyle and infotainment. Children’s and women’s programming is also of key importance in The Voice of Ummah bouquet of services.”<br />
 <br />
He said the nascent station will seek cooperation with renowned Muslim leaders to help achieve its goal or educating Muslims about their faith.<br />
 <br />
“The Voice of Ummah presenters and content producers will Inchallah work closely with key Islamic scholars in the Arab world to formulate Islamic content with specific relevance to the African market, breaking through communication barriers, keeping listeners informed and stimulated,” he said.<br />
 <br />
Molaasan said the radio also seeks to build the intellectual capacities of Muslims to respond effectively to contemporary and religious issues.<br />
 <br />
“Interaction with listeners is paramount,” he said.<br />
 <br />
“Every program is designed to uplift and inspire listeners, making Muslims feel proud to be Muslims while other faiths feel friendly, and determined to make the most of each day.<br />
 <br />
“In parts of Nigeria, the Voice of Ummah or Quds Radio listeners will definitely abandon a non-Islamic Radio Station, preferring the value and excitement of each day’s programming,” a confident Molaasan said.<br />
 <br />
“In the future The Voice of Ummah or <i>Quds Radio</i> will Inchallah be known as a pioneer in Islamic radio station broadcasting and will become the benchmark which is setting the pace for the proliferation and growth of teaching Islamic etiquettes through media in Nigeria.”</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Carnal Desires and Wayward Bellies<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The Messenger of Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “I have fears about you from the waywardness of your bellies and sex and carnal desires.” [Ahmed]<br />
<br />
What Muhammad (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) most feared for his Ummah was not poverty, war, or famine but our caving in to every bodily desire. This results in every corruption, most importantly the losing of our Deen. <br />
<br />
The buffets of five star hotels have ruined us. Our wayward bellies are so enticed by this display we try to mimic it in our homes, we go all out to earn just to satisfy more and more expensive cravings. We have forgotten that Allah (subhana wa ta’ala) put us on earth to guide and lead humankind to Jannah. We attempt instead to make our Jannahs here. Allah (subhana wa ta’ala) has prepared the most lavish displays of food and drink for us in Jannah, but we are in no hurry to reach it. Instead we are wasting our time in the third class offerings of this world. Billboards, advertisements, movies, T.V., all incite to incessant fulfillment of our carnal desires. But even though we spend a major portion of our time catering to our lusts they will never be satisfactorily fulfilled in this life.<br />
<br />
Indeed, Shaitaan attacks us through our bellies and private parts. Allah (subhana wa ta’ala) says in the Quran: “The Shaitaan threatens you with poverty and enjoins on you lewdness, whereas Allah promises you His forgiveness and bounty; and Allah is infinite in His care, and knows all things.” [Surah al-Baqarah: 268</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>The Alternation of Days<br />
<br />
Know that time does not remain at a stand-still, for Allah subahnahu wa ta`ala (exalted is He) says:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
&#1608;&#1614;&#1578;&#1616;&#1604;&#1618;&#1603;&#1614; &#1575;&#1604;&#1618;&#1571;&#1614;&#1610;&#1614;&#1617;&#1575;&#1605;&#1615; &#1606;&#1615;&#1583;&#1614;&#1575;&#1608;&#1616;&#1604;&#1615;&#1607;&#1614;&#1575; &#1576;&#1614;&#1610;&#1618;&#1606;&#1614; &#1575;&#1604;&#1606;&#1614;&#1617;&#1575;&#1587;&#1616;<br />
<br />
“[...] And these days [of varying conditions] We alternate among the people [...]” (Qur’an 3:140)<br />
<br />
One time it is poverty, and another time it is wealth. Once it is honor, and another it is humiliation. So the happy one is the one who remains well-grounded in each situation, and he is the one who has taqwa(consciousness) of Allah (swt). For if he is wealthy, it beautifies him and if he becomes poor, the doors of patience open up for him. And if he is healthy, he recognizes the blessings upon him. If he is tested, he bears it all. The alternation of days does not hurt him—no matter if he is elevated, or if he is starving.<br />
<br />
This is because all of these situations change and do not remain constant, but taqwa (God-consciousness) is the foundation of peace. It is the guard that does not sleep, taking you by the hand when you slip. And the disgraced one is the one who is deceived by the sweetness of his present situation without having anytaqwa. Soon enough that situation will change and he will be a loser.<br />
<br />
So, hold tight to taqwa in every situation. You will only see vastness in every confinement and well-being in every sickness. This is the wealth of the present, and what the future holds is known.<br />
<br />
—Sayd al-Khatir<br />
<br />
Supplication of the One in Hardship<br />
<br />
When a calamity befalls the believer, he begins making du`a’ (supplication) constantly, but he may not see any sign of response for some time. When he is close to despair, Allah (swt) looks into his heart to see if he is pleased and content with the Decree, and not hopeless or discouraged. If this is his situation, then the response comes quickly. This contentment and pleasure in Allah (swt)’s Decree is what reforms and fixes the iman (faith) as well as destroys Shaytan (the devil). That moment when the believer is close to despair is when the real men are determined.<br />
<br />
This is seen in the statement of Allah (swt):<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
&#1581;&#1614;&#1578;&#1614;&#1617;&#1609;&#1648; &#1610;&#1614;&#1602;&#1615;&#1608;&#1604;&#1614; &#1575;&#1604;&#1585;&#1614;&#1617;&#1587;&#1615;&#1608;&#1604;&#1615; &#1608;&#1614;&#1575;&#1604;&#1614;&#1617;&#1584;&#1616;&#1610;&#1606;&#1614; &#1570;&#1605;&#1614;&#1606;&#1615;&#1608;&#1575; &#1605;&#1614;&#1593;&#1614;&#1607;&#1615; &#1605;&#1614;&#1578;&#1614;&#1609;&#1648; &#1606;&#1614;&#1589;&#1618;&#1585;&#1615; &#1575;&#1604;&#1604;&#1614;&#1617;&#1607;&#1616;<br />
<br />
“[...] until [even their] messenger and those who believed with him said,’When is the help of Allah?’ [...]” (Qur’an 2:214)<br />
<br />
And this is what occurred with Jacob (Ya’qub, peace be upon him)—after he lost two children, he did not despair, rather he said:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
&#1593;&#1614;&#1587;&#1614;&#1609; &#1575;&#1604;&#1604;&#1614;&#1617;&#1607;&#1615; &#1571;&#1614;&#1606; &#1610;&#1614;&#1571;&#1618;&#1578;&#1616;&#1610;&#1614;&#1606;&#1616;&#1610; &#1576;&#1616;&#1607;&#1616;&#1605;&#1618; &#1580;&#1605;&#1610;&#1593;&#1575;<br />
<br />
“[...] Perhaps Allah (swt) will bring them to me all together [...]” (Qur’an 12:83)<br />
<br />
And likewise with Zakariah (peace be upon him)—he did not despair even with old age from having children:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
&#1608;&#1614;&#1604;&#1614;&#1605;&#1618; &#1571;&#1614;&#1603;&#1615;&#1606; &#1576;&#1616;&#1583;&#1615;&#1593;&#1614;&#1575;&#1574;&#1616;&#1603;&#1614; &#1585;&#1614;&#1576;&#1616;&#1617; &#1588;&#1614;&#1602;&#1616;&#1610;&#1611;&#1617;&#1575;<br />
<br />
“[...] And never have I been in my supplication to You, my Lord, unhappy.” (Qur’an 19:4)<br />
<br />
So, be aware of why the response is delayed! Understand that He is The Master, and that He is The Most Wise in planning, and Most Knowing of what will lead to the reformation of His slaves. Know that He wants to put you through trials to test what you hide in your heart, and that He wants to see your humility, and that He wants to reward you for your patience. Know that He wants to test you with a delay in response so that you can fight the whispers of Shaytan.<br />
<br />
Indeed every one of these things strengthens the recognition of His Favors and leads to being thankful to Him. Thus when the trial begins, the supplications are lengthened, and the one in hardship shows his need and takes refuge in Allah (swt)—he will be content with everything.<br />
<br />
—Sayd al-Khatir<br />
<br />
Keep Guard<br />
<br />
Satan tricks people in whatever way he can, and his power over them increases and decreases according to their alertness or negligence, their ignorance or knowledge. Note that the heart is like a fortress, and the devils are always going around the fortress watching for the guards to become heedless. The guard should know all the gates of the fortress which he has been appointed to guard, and he should not let his attention slip for a moment, for the enemy never lets his attention slip.<br />
<br />
—Talbees Iblees (Dr. Bilal Philip’s translation)<br />
<br />
A Wake-Up Call<br />
<br />
O you who persists in mistakes and wrong doings; O you who has turned away from what the most Loving and Compassionate commands; O you who obeys the falsifier of the path and the creator of calamities—How long are you going to insist on your misbehavior? How long are you going to keep yourself distant from your Lord? How long will you seek from this world what you cannot have, and keep away from the other world by that which you cannot possess? Neither are you sure of what Allah (swt) prepared of sustenance for you, nor are you satisfied with that which He has commanded for you. O my brother, by Allah (swt), admonition does not seem to benefit you. Afflictions do not seem to threaten you. Time does not leave you, and the call of death does not reach your ears. As if, you poor man, would live forever and you weren’t meant to expire and be forgotten!<br />
<br />
—Bahr ad-Dumoo’ (Translated by Shazia Ahmad)<br />
<br />
Who is the real poor person?<br />
<br />
One should implement what he knows for it is the greatest foundation. And the poor person, the truly poor, is the one who wasted his life learning that which he does not practice. So, he loses the pleasures of this worldly life and the goodness of the hereafter, coming forth bankrupt (on the Day of Judgment) with strong evidences against himself.<br />
<br />
—Sayd al-Khatir</div>

<br />
Iran, like Russia, is one of Syria's few allies as it presses ahead with a 14-month old assault on opposition forces determined to oust Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.<br />
<br />
The confidential report, seen by Reuters, said there were three seizures of large shipments of Iranian weapons investigated by a panel of experts over the past year.<br />
<br />
&quot;Two of these cases involved the Syrian Arab Republic, as were the majority of cases inspected by the Panel during its previous mandate, underscoring that Syria continues to be the central party to illicit Iranian arms transfers,&quot; it said. <br />
<br />
&quot;The Panel recommends the designation (blacklisting) of two entities related to these interdictions,&quot; it said. &quot;The report also takes note of information concerning arms shipments by Iran to other destinations.&quot;<br />
<br />
The report also discusses Iran's attempts to circumvent sanctions on its nuclear programme but notes that the four rounds of punitive measures the 15-nation Security Council imposed on Iran between 2006 and 2010 were having an impact.<br />
<br />
&quot;Sanctions are slowing Iran's procurement of some critical items required for its prohibited nuclear programme,&quot; it said. &quot;At the same time prohibited activities continue, including uranium enrichment.&quot;<br />
<br />
The report talks at length about Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Lines, known as IRISL. While IRISL itself is not formally under UN sanctions, three of its subsidiaries have been sanctioned and the council has warned UN member states to be vigilant regarding potential sanctions violations by IRISL.<br />
<br />
The panel report says that one of IRISL's sanctioned subsidiaries, Irano Hind Shipping Company, continues to operate vessels. It also says that IRISL is a challenging company to monitor as it is constantly changing the ownership, names and national flags of its ships.<br />
<br />
Diplomats told Reuters that the panel's draft report may be changed by the Security Council's Iran sanctions committee before it is submitted to the council itself for consideration. Last year's expert panel report on Iran was never made public because Russia blocked its publication. <br />
<br />

Viene trasmesso che Ibn Umar (rahimahullah - che Allah abbia misericordia di lui) ha detto: &quot;Educate i vostri bambini come si deve, perché in verità voi siete responsabili per loro e verrete chiesti riguardo la loro educazione.<br />
(Shu’ab al Iman 8295)        <br />
<br />
Viene trasmesso che Mu'awiah ibn Qura (rahimahullah) disse ai suoi figli dopo Salatul-'Isha (Preghiera della sera): “Figli miei, andate presto a dormire, forse potrebbe capitare che Allah vi benedica quando vi fa passare una parte della notte nella preghiera.”<br />
(‘Zuhd’ di Imam Ahmad, 234)<br />
<br />
Salih bin Ahmad bin Hanbali (rahimahullah) ha detto: “Mio padre (Imam Ahmad) mi chiamava sempre quando un uomo retto (pio) lo visitava cosicché io lo guardassi a quest’uomo mentre lui sperava che io diventassi come esso.”<br />
(‘Siyar’ 12/530)<br />
<br />
Abdurrahman bin Yazid (rahimahullah) ha detto: “Io stavo in compagnia di Ibn Mas’ud mentre un bambino piccolo che indossava la seta nel suo vestito si stava avvicinando. Ibn Mas’ud lo vide, tiro la seta e lo strappò.” <br />
(Ibn Hazm in ‘Muhalah’ 4/40)<br />
<br />
Ibn Qudamah (rahimahullah) ha detto: “E’ proibito per i genitori permettere ai loro bambini le cose proibite, cosi come è proibito permetterli di bere l’alcool oppure coinvolgersi nelle norme dell’ususra.” <br />
(‘Al Mugni’ 1/344) <br />
<br />
Sufyan Ath-Thawri (rahimahullah) ha detto: “E’ giusto che un uomo obblighi suo figlio a studiare perché egli verrà chiesto a riguardo.”<br />
(‘Storie dei Salaf’’ di Zakariya Ibn al-Ghulan Bakistani)<br />
<br />
Uthman Al-Hatima (rahimahullah) ha detto: “Ho sentito ‘Umar che diceva ad un uomo: ‘Educa i tuoi figli perché verrai chiesto: Come hai educato i tuoi figli? Che cosa avete insegnato a loro?’”<br />

<br />
E467 is widely used in in processed foods, supplements and cosmetics.<br />
<br />
They'll tell you that there is no evidence that E467 or polyglycerol polyricinoleate could possibly be of animal origin. But you'll find in the official site of the Vegan Society that <a href="http://www.vegansociety.com/lifestyle/animal-substances.aspx" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">E476 is possibly animal-derived</a>.<br />
<br />
E476 comes from E475, which is: &quot; polyglycerol esters of fatty acids &quot;, any fatty acids, animal or vegetal. The cheapest way to obtain fatty acids is the processing of animal waste. The law doesn't require the manufacturer to state the origin of the additive, you'll never know where it comes from. The industry doesn't care about the consumers, it cares about sales and costs and the like. <br />
<br />
Get an additive guide and read your labels, all of them, not just foods'!<br />
<br />
<br />
Assalaamo alaykum.</div>

<br />
&quot;Tianuchki&quot; are soft candies of Russian origin. They are made of milk, cream or smetana and sugar cooked together and flavoured with vanilla. <br />
<br />
Depending on its thickness, tianuchka can also be used as dessert sauce or cake filling or icing. <br />
<br />
200 ml cream<br />
100 ml sugar<br />
100 ml soft brown sugar<br />
½ vanilla bean<br />
<br />
Place the ingredients in a thick-bottomed saucepan. Stirring continually, bring the mixture to the boil. Reduce the heat to low and continue cooking, stirring continually, until the sauce is dark honey-coloured and thickened, for about 10 - 15 minutes. Remove the vanilla bean. <br />
<br />
Serve the sauce warm or cold to top ice cream, fresh fruit or berries, cakes, tarts etc. If the sauce gets too stiff after it has cooled down, just slowly and gently reheat it. If necessary, dilute it by adding some cream.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>'TheAuthenticbase' brother has been arrested in relation to terrorism case. I don't think he could ever do anything related to terrorism, he was really a cool guy always busy reading books subhanAllah! I don't know the allegations. I heard about it in his blog where a brother posted in comment section that his house had been searched by police for 2 days and 8 or 9 police cars were surrounding his house for those 2 days. Brother who posted the comment doesn't know where is he for last 2 weeks!!!<br />
<br />
'TheAuthenticbase' brother always participated in this forum. So, I thought I should let you know and ask you guyes not to forget him in your pious duas. SubhanAllah when we are having a normal life alhamdoulillah, don't know what these innocent brothers going through in their life! May Allah protect them from all the hardship of this world ! Ameen.<br />
<br />
Please update if anybody comes to know anything about him. Please do not contact me asking any questions relating this because I,myself don't know anything, I just came to learn about him from his 'TheAuthenticbase' blog. SubhanAllah! He has so many subscribers. Please do not forget him in your duas.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Assalam alaikum all. I am not a Muslim yet but I am learning about Islam. I have learned about the five pillars of Islam, some common terms in Arabic, women and how they are elevated and respected in Islam, the five daily prayers, the Qur'an and hadiths, and the differences between halal and haram. I am getting close to deciding whether to revert or not; I am going to the masjid later today for a Qur'an class, meet with the women, pray, and insha'Allah take my Shahada. :)</div>

<br />
Abu Hurairah (radi Allahu anhu) reported that the Messenger of Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “He who purifies himself (performs Wudhu) in his house and then walks to one of the houses of Allah (Masjid) for performing an obligatory Salat, one step of his will wipe out his sins and another step will elevate his rank (in Jannah).” [Sahih Muslim]<br />
<br />
This hadith tells us the merit of offering Salat in the Masjid. Allah (subhana wa ta’ala) encourages us to go to the Masjid for Fardh prayers by offering us alternatively the wiping out of minor sins and the elevation of one’s rank in Jannah by one degree with each step that one takes towards the Masjid. <br />
<br />
This hadith also indicates the superiority of cleansing and readying oneself in one’s house rather than in the Masjid. One should try to go to the Masjid in one’s best condition. This is practical advice to help prevent unnecessary crowding and mess in the Masjid’s bathrooms and Wudhu areas. Since the Masjid is one of the houses of Allah we should try to keep our presence in it as pleasant as possible.<br />
<br />
There is a story of a man who would wake up every morning for Fajr, do Wudhu, then leave to pray with the Jamaat (congregation) in the Masjid. One day as he was on his way to the Masjid he tripped and fell. As his clothes had gotten dirty and wet he went back home to change. He got ready again and set out for the Masjid once more. As it was dark, on the way to the Masjid he tripped again in the same spot and his clothes got soiled yet again. So he went back home, cleaned himself up, changed, and set out for the Masjid a third time. <br />
<br />
On this trip to the Masjid he found a man waiting for him with a lantern in the place that he would keep tripping. This man led him with his lantern safely to the Masjid. As he was turning back to leave, the man who would keep tripping thanked him but asked him why he wouldn’t enter the Masjid and pray in Jamaat with them. <br />
<br />
The man with the lantern replied that he was actually Shaitaan. It was he who would keep tripping the man up on his way to the Masjid. The first time that the man returned home, changed and set out for the Masjid again Allah (subhana wa ta’ala) forgave the man all his sins. The second time that the man changed and set out for the Masjid, Allah forgave all the sins of each member of his household. Seeing this Shaitaan got afraid that should the man trip again Allah (subhana wa ta’ala) might forgive the sins of all the people in the village next, so instead of tripping him Shaitaan made sure that the man got to the Masjid safely!</div>
