Ramadan: a Non-Muslim's Experience. 2007-09-20 01:32:00 Ramadan: a Spiritual Time in Senegal for a Foreign Studentby Ben HubbardNorthwestern UniversityEVANSTON, Ill. -- Salaam Alekum. At this time last year I was fasting. For those of you who don't know, this is the month of Ramadan, the holiest month of the Muslim
year. It is observed by Muslims worldwide through fasting and increased concentration on purification of the soul and closeness with God.While not a Muslim myself, this time last year found me in Senegal, the westernmost country in Africa, whose population is 90 percent Muslim. Given that just about everyone I knew was Muslim and would be fasting during Ramadan, I decided, rather reluctantly, to fast as well.If all my friends had to force themselves through it, I figured the least I could do was try it for myself to better sympathize with what they were going through. When in Rome, do as the Romans; when in Senegal, fast. While I had resolved to fast for the entire month, I can't say I was particularly excited about it. The pr
Ramadan - The Month of Mercy. 2007-09-18 03:03:00 "Ramadan is a month whose beginning is Mercy, whose middle is Forgiveness and whose end is freedom from the fire."-Hadith of the Prophet (pbuh)Mercy > Forgiveness > Freedom from FirePonder on the inherent logical sequence ( subhanAllah ) of the above! We cannot be exempt from fire without first being forgiven. And to be forgiven, we must be graced by Allah's mercy.The first one third of Ramadan (10days ) is MERCY from Allah1. Can we expect to receive mercy if we only deprive our bodies of food and drink? Of course not. Because Ramadan is meant for SPIRITUAL development through fasting. Physiologically, by fasting the body eliminates toxins efficiently and the mind becomes clear for "power thinking" so that one may ponder on the meaning of the Qur'an, Hadith and the necessity of Zhikr. One must also do some self-analysis to monitor and correct one's behaviour if necessary. With meditation the mind becomes quiet and so should our tongues!2. Allah is looking for a sincere commitment fr Read more:Month

Ramadan: Month of Holy Quran 2007-09-14 05:22:00 Fasting in the month of Ramadan, like Namaaz (prayers) is a divine command. Allah says in the Holy Quran
, "O you who believe! Fasting is prescribed for you, as it was prescribed for those before you, so that you may guard (against evil)." (2:183)It was reserved for Islam to formulate and perfect a form of spiritual purification for every one of its followers, notwithstanding the state of society they belonged to, and which could be performed without interfering with their normal avocations and callings in every day life.Whatever calling or vocation he is engaged in, does not hinder a Muslim from carrying out this annual requirement of the Faith, the fast of this month of Ramadan, which incidentally, is also one of the five cardinal points of Islamic tenet.The Muslim fast means a complete abstention from eating or drinking between daybreak and sunset. The sighting of the thin sickle of the new moon of Ramadan heralds for the Muslim the beginning of a month of glory and of spiritual ele Read more:Month

Those who Fast will be Called from the Gate of al-Rayyaan 2007-09-14 00:15:00 From Islam Q&A, by Sheikh Muhammed Salih Al-Munajjid (http://www.islam-qa.com/)Praise be to Allaah.Firstly:Allaah has enjoined upon the Muslims fasting the month of Ramadaan, and He has promised a great reward to those who fast. Because the virtue of fasting is so great, Allaah has not specified the reward for it, rather He said – in a hadeeth qudsi –“… except for fasting, for it is for Me, and I shall reward for it.”The virtues of the month of Ramadaan are many. For example, that which Allaah has promised those who fast, namely the gate of al-Rayyaan. This is the name which was narrated in the hadeeth whose authenticity is agreed upon. Sahl (may Allaah be pleased with him) said that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:“In Paradise there is a gate called al-Rayyaan, through which those who used to fast will enter on the Day of Resurrection, and no one but they will enter it. It will be said, ‘Where are those who fasted?’ They will get up, and no
Did Sunita Williams really accepted Islam? 2007-09-09 01:24:00 The news in Emails, online Forums is spreading like fire all around that Astronaut SunitaWilliams
accepted Islam
recently after visiting on the Moon. They are spreading the news that Sunita Williams is the first women from Indian origin visited on Moon and embraced Islam.

The Significance of Shabe Baraat 2007-08-28 08:00:00 The Significance
of Shabe BaraatThis night is called Shabe-Baraat ( the night of freedom ) because Allah frees all His sinful servants who were destined for Jahannam (Hell).The Quraan has called it a blessed night.Nabi has said in a Hadith regarding this month. "Shabaan is my month and Ramadhaan is the month of Allah."This month is an introduction to Ramadhaan, like Shawwal hail the end of Ramadhaan.Allah Ta'ala 's mercy decends during this night.During this night, beginning at sunset Allah Ta'ala 's special attention descends upon the first sky. He proclaims:Is there anyone seeking forgiveness, that I may pardon him?Is there anyone requesting sustenance that I may provide for him?Is there anyone afflicted with difficulty (so that he may ask for assistance) that I may help him?Is there anyone with any other need?Allah Ta'ala showers His mercy the entire night up until Subah Saadiq (early morning - dawn).Nabi was so mindful of Sha'baan that he did not give the sighting of

Why is the eating of pork forbidden in Islam? 2007-11-09 00:59:00 Answer by Dr. Zakir Naik:The fact that consumption of pork is prohibited in Islam
is well known. The following points explain various aspects of this prohibition:1. Pork prohibited in Qur'anThe Qur'an prohibits the consumption of pork in no less than 4 different places. It is prohibited in 2:173, 5:3, 6:145 and 16:115."Forbidden to you (for food) are: dead meat, blood, the flesh of swine, and that on which hath been invoked the name of other than Allah." [Al-Qur'an 5:3]The above verses of the Holy Qur'an are sufficient to satisfy a Muslim as to why pork is forbidden.2. Pork prohibited in the BibleThe Christian is likely to be convinced by his religious scriptures. The Bible prohibits the consumption of pork, in the book of Leviticus"And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be cloven footed, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you"."Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcass shall ye not touch, they are unclean to you."[Lev Read more:eating
