Purify yourself

From now on, let us take a step forward in our way to Allah by performing a good deed; and do not belittle any good deed.
Take it step by step till you reach your ultimate goal.
Starting from today abide by being in the state of purity. Perhaps Allah would bestow upon you with inner purity as well as the outer one.” And purify your garments!” (Al-Muddathir)
It’s been narrated by Ahmed and Ibn Majjah and classified as correct by Al-Albany that the prophet (May peace and blessings be upon him) said:
“And only a (true) Mu’min (Believer) maintains the Wudu’ (ablution)”
So when ever you break your wudu’ hasten to perform it again to achieve the status of (Only a true Mu’min)
Remember: Ramadan will be there within 74 days

he is the messenger of Allah

" Muhamed is not the father of any of your men, but he is the messenger of Allah and the Seal of
the Prophets; and
Allah has full knowledge of all things."
ما كان محمد أبا أحد من رجالكم ولكن رسول الله وخاتم النيئين وكان الله بكل شيء عليما
Sura AL-AHZAB verse 41

a very important site

Al Quran was revealed from Allah piecemeal to meet the needs and requirements of the Islamic Movement in its different stages. It is a divine guidance to humanity so that we can successfully reach our destiny - the Hereafter. Because of its divine origin, Al Quran in its original Arabic language does not have human authors.
Al Quran is unique in its composition and style. Al Quran does not conform to the normal conception of a book. It is a book that is not like any book ever written. The chapters of Al Quran consist of verses that deal with a mixture of subjects and miscellaneous topics. It is for this reason that the title or name of a chapter would not reveal the total information and contents in that chapter. The information contained in a chapter of the Quran is woven together and laid down in a mosaic form that might give the feeling of lack of continuity and order. Interconnection between the verses and the continuity of the subject might not be apparent or existing. Varied information within the same verse can also be found. It is reasonable to think of a chapter of Al Quran as a beautiful flower bouquet, each of its flowers has its unique color and smell.
Thus, for one to understand Al Quran, one should first free the mind from the preconceived notion of a “regular” book, and then concentrate on grasping the meaning of each individual verse in the chapter. Verses that have obvious and clear connection should be studied together. After one reads a chapter more than once, one is able to comprehend all the important lessons in that chapter. It is important that, for deeper and more understanding of Al Quran, the reader should visit any index, commentary, or notes, if available in the translation.
It is difficult to understand the complete meaning and grasp all the wisdom of Al Quran after one reading. As a matter of fact, one needs to read Al Quran over and over again with complete concentration and meditation before one can fully discover its hidden treasures. Because you gain new meanings and perception each time you read Al Quran, you might feel as if you never read such verses before. Amazingly, these realities, about re-reading Al Quran often, hold true for all people regardless of their level of education. Fortunately, Allah rewards us generously for reading each and every letter of this great divine book.

He never sent me a bill

A man reached 70 years of age and he faced a disease; he could not urinate. The doctors informed him that he was in need of an operation to cure this disease. He agreed to have the operation done as the problem was giving him much pain for days. When the operation was completed, his doctor gave him the bill which covered all the costs. The old man looked at the bill and started to cry. Upon seeing this the doctor told him that if the cost was too high then they could make some other arrangements. The old man said “I am not crying because of the money but I am crying because Allah let me urinate for 70 years and He never sent me a bill.”
…and if you try to count the blessings of Allah, never will you be able to count them… {Surah Ibrahim}

History of The Prophet of Islam

In or about the year 570 the child who would be named Muhammad and who would become the Prophet of one of the world’s great religions, Islam, was born into a family belonging to a clan of Quraish, the ruling tribe of Mecca, a city in the Hijaz region of northwestern Arabia.

Originally the site of the Kaabah, a shrine of ancient origins, Mecca had, with the decline of southern Arabia, become an important center of sixth-century trade with such powers as the Sassanians, Byzantines, and Ethiopians. As a result, the city was dominated by powerful merchant families, among whom the men of Quraish were preeminent.

Muhammad’s father, “Abd Allah ibn” Abd al-Muttalib, died before the boy was born; his mother, Aminah, died when he was six. The orphan was consigned to the care of his grandfather, the head of the clan of Hashim. After the death of his grandfather, Muhammad was raised by his uncle, Abu Talib. As was customary, the child Muhammad was sent to live for a year or two with a Bedouin family.

This custom, followed until recently by noble families of Mecca, Medina, Taif, and other towns of the Hijaz, had important implications for Muhammad. In addition to enduring the hardships of desert life, he acquired a taste for the rich language so loved by the Arabs, whose speech was their proudest art, and also learned the patience and forbearance of the herdsmen, whose life of solitude he first shared, and then came to understand and appreciate.

About the year 590, Muhammad, then in his twenties, entered the service of a merchant widow named Khadijah as her factor, actively engaged with trading caravans to the north. Sometime later he married her, and had two sons, neither of whom survived, and four daughters by her.

In his forties, he began to retire to meditate in a cave on Mount Hira, just outside Mecca, where the first of the great events of Islam took place. One day, as he was sitting in the cave, he heard a voice, later identified as that of the Angel Gabriel, which ordered him to:“Recite: In the name of thy Lord who created, Created man from a clot of blood.” (Quran 96:1-2)Three times Muhammad pleaded his inability to do so, but each time the command was repeated. Finally, Muhammad recited the words of what are now the first five verses of the 96th chapter of the Quran – words which proclaim God to be the Creator of man and the Source of all knowledge.

At first Muhammad divulged his experience only to his wife and his immediate circle. But, as more revelations enjoined him to proclaim the oneness of God universally, his following grew, at first among the poor and the slaves, but later, also among the most prominent men of Mecca. The revelations he received at this time, and those he did later, are all incorporated in the Quran, the Scripture of Islam.

Not everyone accepted God’s message transmitted through Muhammad. Even in his own clan, there were those who rejected his teachings, and many merchants actively opposed the message. The opposition, however, merely served to sharpen Muhammad’s sense of mission, and his understanding of exactly how Islam differed from paganism. The belief in the Oneness of God was paramount in Islam; from this all else follows. The verses of the Quran stress God’s uniqueness, warn those who deny it of impending punishment, and proclaim His unbounded compassion to those who submit to His will. They affirm the Last Judgment, when God, the Judge, will weigh in the balance the faith and works of each man, rewarding the faithful and punishing the transgressor. Because the Quran rejected polytheism and emphasized man’s moral responsibility, in powerful images, it presented a grave challenge to the worldly Meccans
