the humility of islam

As Salaam Alaykum.

First of all I would like to point out that this particular post is an admonishment to myself, for my heart is full of pride, conceit , vanity and arrogance I pray that Allah cures me of these diseases.I in no way intend to hurt or injure the feelings of others.

Hazrat Umar Al Farooq (ra) appointed Abu Musa Al Ashari (ra) 
as the Governor of Basra. On his arrival He addressed the people and said: 
" The Amir has ordered me to rule over you justly, to teach you your religion and to sweep your streets."
The people were amazed the Governor is going to sweep our streets they said in bewilderment. For they had never heard of a ruler, who acted in such humility.The false Pride of Jahiliyah had perished, and the Humility of Islam had arrived.


Some points to reflect.

Brothers and sisters look at our condition, in our youth and our zeal we think we are going to change the world. Through our arrogance and conceit we think that we and only we are capable of transforming the fortunes of the ummah.

Subhanallah we think it is beneath us to sweep the floors and clean the wash area's of the Masajid. We cannot even humble ourselves in the Masajid 
Yet we think we are capable of changing the world, Abu musa al Ashari (ra) is sweeping the streets of Basra, he did not say I am the governor this is beneath me. He did not think of this task as demeaning he saw it as an act of Honour, he did not see himself as a leader but as a servant. Yet we are afflicted with the diseases of Hubb e Jah (love of fame and leadership), Hubb e Maal (love of wealth), Hubb e dunya ( love of dunya), Takkabur (pride and conceit).The Sahaaba Humbled themselves before Allah, and the world humbled itself before them. Their hearts emanated the fragrance of the Prophets (saw) Ikhlaaq and Adaab.

Here are the words of shaykh Masood Azhar mujahid (dB) He says:

" When the love of the Prophet (saw) and his sunna dominated their hearts, 
Those who were misguided became the guides of others.
Those who were dead were brought back to life. These arab 's who were not considered worthy of being conquered, these forgotten people living in isolation, were revived and elevated. The world humbled itself before them.

" Umar Al Farooq (ra) is sitting by a hillside and crying someone asked, "oh Amir Al mumineen what is the matter", he replied:" As a child I used to graze Camels and sheep, my Paternal aunt used to admonish me and Say "Oh Umar you cannot even graze animals, what will you accomplish in life when you can't even do this simple task." I marvel at how Allah has raised a worthless one like me to the rank of Amir ul mumineen.

Once Abu Sufyan (ra) went to see Hazrat Umar al Farooq (ra), he was told to wait because the the Amir is busy. 

A while later Hazrat Bilal (ra) the abyssinian arrived. When Hazrat Umar Al Farooq was informed of Bilal(ra) arrival he came dashing out of his quarters
hugged him and kissed him on the forehead and led him into his quarters.
Abu Sufyans (ra) old pride and nobility took over he felt slighted and said: "I am also a muslim yet I am made to wait whilst Bilal (ra), is given direct access, am I not worthy of equal treatment." 

Somebody said: " Oh Abu Sufyan think back to those days when you use to raise your sword in enemity towards the muslims, whilst Bilal (ra) used to humble himself before Allah and his messenger. Allah has made a tribal chief, a nobleman of the Quraish like you wait whilst he has elevated the position of Bilal (ra), think to the days of jahiliyah he was someone who had no voice, who was given no rights was enslaved by your people, he humbled himself before Allah and his messenger and today the Amir al Muineen addresses Bilal (ra) as his master.Oh Abu sufyan fear Allah for your heart is still full of vain pride.Abu Sufyan (ra) Started sobbing uncontrollably."

Khalid Ibn Al Walid(ra) Is the Commander of the Muslim Army, he is given the title the sword of Allah by none other than the Prophet of Allah (saw). He is removed from his position of leadership by Umar (ra), some of the Mujahideen are upset and talk about a mutiny . Khalid Ibn Al Walid speaks and says: " The Amir has asked me to resign my position, we do not consider positions of leadership with pride our sole purpose should be to strive in the way of Allah, If Allah wills that I should lead than I shall lead if Allah wills that I should carry the sandals of the Mujahadeen then I will carry them with pride."

Look at our condition today, if we are moved from any worldly position we feel insulted and immediately form a splinter group. We fight over leadership in the Masajids, we consider it demeaning to sweep the floor of the Masajid yet we fight over the leadership. Than we complain and wonder why muslims all over the world are being humiliated. They are being humiliated because our hearts are sick they are completely devoid of humility and Ikhlaq, each one of us wants a position of leadership, but none of us is willing to do the work or take action. The Sahaba were people of action.

If the streets where we live are strewn with rubbish do we ever think of picking up a broomstick and sweep up the rubbish, or scrub the graffiti of the walls. No instead what we do is form action committees so we can complain to the council we say after all we pay our taxes we are entitled to a road sweeper, we spend months complaining and fighting over the leadership of these committees.

We form action committees, but we take no action ourselves, the Sahaba were people of action. Each and everyone of them was a treasure a priceless jewel.
And everyone of them was a miracle from the miracles of our Beloved Prophet(saw).

This is why George Bernard Shaw was moved to Say " If a Man like Muhammad (Saw) was to assume the dictatorship of the world, the world would be filled with peace, Justice and Harmony."

This is why Thomas Carlyle Labeled Him (saw) as "The Hero among all Prophets."One who civilized the unruly tribes of arabia and elevated them to ranks that few mortals could reach.

Were is our humility we think of nothing but ourselves we are full of arrogance and conceit, we take great pride in our Job titles , and our Bank balances we degrade others who might have less wordily things then us. We are incapable of picking up a broom and sweeping our own street yet we think we are the solution to the problems of the Ummah.Where are those who have the humility of Abu Musa Al Ashari(ra) amongst us.


Hazrat Ayesha As Siddiqa (ra) is fasting some poor person Knock's on the door asking for provisions, she hands over everything in the house. As evening arrives it is the time of Iftar there is nothing in the house to open the fast with a maid servant asks "Oh mother of the Believers, did you not think of keeping something for yourself to open the fast with." Ayesha As Siddiqa (ra) replied "I am sorry but I forgot about myself". She opens her fast with a sip of water.
She(ra) forgot about herself, The wife of the Prophet(SAW) the daughter of Abu Bakr
AS Siddiq (ra) did not take her own needs into consideration.

Yet we think of nothing but ourselves.We are incapable of offering one sajda in humility. 

Much more could be written on this topic ,but for now I think this will suffice.
I would like to reiterate that the defects I have highlighted are those that I see in myself, I pray that Allah guides me towards goodness. This post is not intended to injure the feelings of anyone else or pass judgement upon them.

If any of you find benefit in what has been written all praise is for Allah, the
mistakes are all mine and I pray that Allah forgives me.


May Allah remove pride an arrogance in all our hearts, and gives us the tawfiq to follow in the footsteps of our Beloved prophet (saw) and his Sahaba ameen.

Allah Will test you



AS Salaam alaykum. 

A brother was listening to a lecture by a famous Scholar, The scholar talked about 
Islamic Ikhlaq and how we should be respectful and courteous to others, even though they may not be polite or courteous towards us. For the true test of fairness is to be fair to those who are not to us. The brother felt inspired by this lecture and made a commitment, that from now on he would be courteous, and polite towards others in all circumstances.

The following morning as he headed of to work, he thought I will now put what I have learned into action, and the best place would be on the bus on my way to work. Now often you get bus drivers who having had a bad day or been abused by a passenger and end up taking out there temper on other passengers. So he thought no matter what kind of mood the bus driver is in I am going to be very polite ask him how he is, and behave in a courteous manner towards him. When he boarded the bus, he found the bus driver to be a very friendly chap. He stood next to the drivers cab and engaged in a thoroughly enjoyable conversation, this was perhaps the best journey to work he had ever had.

During the day he made a point of being polite and courteous to all his colleauges and people he came across.

However on his way home as he got on the bus he tried making conversation with the bus driver, the driver being in a bad mood was very abrupt and rude and told him to "shut up and take a seat, I'm not in the mood to listen to your nonsense." The Brother being tired after a hard days work, lost his temper and got into an argument with the driver.

Later on in the evening as he was sitting at home he reflected on what had happened. He said to himself " I very rarely get into arguments, but on the first day I made a commitment to be polite and courteous to others no matter what the circumstances I ended up engaging in one. Allah tested my sincerity but I ended up failing the test the very first time I came across a rude person during the day."

Story Written by Julaybib.


point's to reflect upon:

How often do we feel inspired when listening to a lecture or reading a book, and make a commitment to change ourselves. Are we not like the brother in the story, we back track as we are tested by Allah. our commitment is short lived. Usually we are not capable of passing the simplest of tests, what happens to us when we are hit by a major illness or afflicted with calamitys, we stop praying we whinge and moan about our difficulty circumstances.

We should also reflect on the behavior of the Bus driver how often have we reacted like him. We have a bad day at work, or something else happens to put us in a bad mood, so we end up taking our frustrations, and anger out on a completely innocent individual. 

Allah have mercy on us and May he give us the tawfiq to have sabr in all circumstances ameen.

charity does not decrease wealth

Assalamu 'alaykum,

There was this young brother named zaid in a small town. He had very little money left but enough to get by. However he had no job and he has to pay a few thousand bucks for an enrichment course he was going to take and he was worried about how he was going to pay for it. One day, he saw a brother at a masjid and saw that he does not seem to be from the same town. Upon talking to the brother, zaid realised that the brother was in a worse condition than him financially and helped him with some of the little money he had. On the same night, Zaid received a phone call that he had been offered a job. 

Moral: The Prophet (Peace be upon him) has said: "Sadaqah (charity) does not decrease wealth." (Muslim)

Mut-ma'een

As Salaam Alaykum.

Jazak Allah for your kind comments, I would humbly request your duas as I am not in the best of health at the moment.

I would just like to point out that my posts in this thread are not a reflection of who I am but who I am struggling with great difficulty to become. The defects I have highlighted are the ones I have noticed In myself, may Allah forgive me and give me hidayyah.


I remember visiting a Fabric store in Pakistan. During my conversation with the owner he stated:

" Brother I came to Pakistan as a refugee from Afghanistan, I used to go from village to village selling various goods, walking on foot for miles, I prayed that Allah give me a Motorbike and all my problems would be solved. Allah blessed me with a Motorbike then I had a desire that if only I had a Truck then my livelihood would increase, and the financial difficulties would be solved for me and my family. Allah blessed me with a Truck I then thought to myself If only I had a store, Allah has now blessed me with a Shop.

Brother when I was walking Barefoot I was Poor now that I have become a Shopkeeper earning thousands of rupees I am still poor. Yesterday I was poor , today I am still poor The heart of a Human is never satisfied."


It is Narrated that a man came to Shaykh Junaid Al Baghdadi : and Presented a gift of gold coins for the Shaykh and his students. The Shaykh handed him the money back and said: "we do not require anything from a poor man like your self." The man said "I am very wealthy." The shaykh said:" Do you desire an increase in your wealth" the man said:"Yes of course". The Shaykh said: "Despite all that Allah has blessed you with your heart still desires more, who can be more poor then you are, take your money for you are more in need of it than us."

May Allah Make our hearts content with what we have, and remove the disease of poverty in our hearts ameen.

Dawah in Action.



As Salaam Alaykum:

I remember a brother talking about a shaykh (whose name I have unfortunately forgotten) This shaykh moved to a new neighbourhood in Florida. "On the first day he moved into his new home, he went and knocked on every door on his street and politely introduced himself. Occasionaly when he went shopping, he would buy something for his neighbours. If he was mowing the lawn in his garden,
he would go say to his neighbours. " You Know I am mowing my lawn anyway, Would like me to do your garden when I am finished." If one of his neighbours fell ill he would visit them regularly and offer to help out in what ever way he can. On occasions he would be seen with a Broom stick in his hand sweeping the entire street. 

The Neighbours who were all Non-Muslim , when they went on holiday would leave there house keys with him. In short all the people grew to love him and had great respect for Islam, now he never preached to anyone, he acted as a muslim and inculcated the Ikhlaq and characteristics of our pious predecessors. By this means his every action became dawah. The greatest method of Dawah is indeed through action.

Similarly Shaykh Hussain Abdul Sattar states in one of his lectures Shaykh Zulfiqar Ahmed (db) told one of his mureeds who started a new job , and the Mureed was upset because the pay was'nt so good the Shaykh told him to be patient and work in such a way, that your Employers will think how will we survive if he leaves, the Mureed did as he was told within a few months he got promoted and started receiving a larger paycheck. Imagine the repect his Employers would have developed for Islam, just by the fact they had a muslim employee who was doing more work then he was being payed for.

Something to reflect:

What is the state of our condition, we will carry a grudge with a neighbor for years over something trivial. If we have a job we do less amount of work then we are being payed for if we get Payed $10 an hour we only do $5 amount of work. Through our behavior our own relatives and friends are driven away from the deen. We preach to them about Islam, yet our Ikhlaq and Adaab is far removed from Islam.

It is narrated that a few muslims went to a Zoroastrian and started preaching to him the words of Islam. The Zoroastrian said " If it is the Islam of Abu yazid al Bistami (ra) ( the famous saint) you are talking about I fear that I will not be able to do it justice . If it is the Islam that you people practice I am sorry I cannot believe in it for your very actions repulse me.

May Allah give us all the tawfiq to practice the deen in its entirety and in particular a sinner like me ameen.

Giving thanks for what I have: feet and shoes in abundance!

As Salaam Alaykum;

Sultan Ibrahim ibn Adam (ra) was a Saint who gave up his Kingdom, and chose to spend his life in worship; Somebody once asked him "you gave up kingship of the land of Balkh, did you ever feel in your heart remorse." 

He replied: " only one time did a thought of self pity occur to me, I had been walking barefoot for days my feet were swollen and wounded I was in extreme pain, I felt regret that I had no Shoes; All of a sudden I heard the Azaan, and as I was heading towards the Mosque, I saw a man entering the mosque and he was crawling on his hands for he had no feet; I said to myself you complain that you have no shoes, yet this servant of Allah has no feet, at that moment I fell down in repentance" 

Something to reflect:

"I complained that I had no Shoes yet he had no feet." How many of us think like this, we see people all around us who live in worst circumstances then us;
When a calamity strikes we complain and say why did this happen to me?
We are completely devoid of excercising patience at times of difficulty or expressing gratitude for the blessings we have. Do we ever reflect on how blessed the gift of eyesight is; Or how blessed we are if we have the ability to walk. We never look at those who are blind or in wheelchairs and reflect at how fortunate we are.

We only notice those who have more wordly things than us and complain how deprived we are."


Allah give us all the tawfeeq to express gratitude and exercise patience in all circumstances ,especially a hypocrite like me who is completely devoid of these qualities ameen;

Act on it: even if its only 5%

As Salaam Alaykum:

A Young professor of botany arrived at a small village, to study the local plant species, he met an old Man ,and asked him if there where any guest houses near by, where he could stay for the night. The old man said there where no guest houses, but he would be honoured if he would stay with him,besides he lived on his own and would really enjoy some company.

As the evening progressed the subject turned towards religion. The young professor started boasting about his religious Knowledge, the Young professor had studied the works of Imam Ghazali (ra), Shaykh Abdul Qadir Gilani (ra) amongst many others.

The Old Man was fascinated to hear the words, of the great Scholars being relayed to him, and listened intently. The old man noticed that despite the young professors vast Knowledge , of religion, he did not offer prayers, nor was his manner of sitting speaking or even eating according to the sunnah.

The young Professor carried on boasting, about his Knowledge . Finally the old man spoke and said " my Son Only a blind man knows the value of eyesight, whilst those of us who are blessed with it take it for granted. My son I have spent my entire life in regret that, I am illiterate and cannot read and I did not get the opportunity, to learn from the great works of all the scholars you have mentioned. Yet I ask you my son what is the use of all the knowledge you have gained, when you cannot bring yourself to make one sajda before your creator, what use is such knowledge my son? The young Professor, was silenced upon hearing this. He announced he was tired and went to sleep. The old mans wise counsel had no effect on him."

Story Written by Julaybib.


Something to think about:

Is not our condition like the young professor, we study book after book, we spend hours listening to lectures; Yet we have no inclination to put into practice what we learn. Even admonishments, come to us whether through illness, poverty or other afflictions yet we remain in slumber, and like the young Professor we fall asleep, we gain nothing from our knowledge other than arrogance and boast fullness.


May Allah give us all the tawfiq to practice what we learn and embrace Islam in its entirety especially a Sinner like me ameen.

Remember remember: Me first!

Another poet says ' Today people are running to greet me, praise me and take my hand but if the really knew my past, they would not even take out time to greet me from a distance...'

The illustrious Hanza'la (may Allah be pleased with him) was a true role model. He proved that we need to make Islaah. I mean, if he could feel the difference of imaan when he was alone and when he was with the nabi (saw), and he considered himself a Munafiq..... aaaaaa what can we say about our plight...
When Younus (as) was in the whale... his words were, 
there is no God but You, Glory be to You, I am from amongst the oppressors.

Not my tribe, not the desbelievers, not the people who drove me away, but I.

Dua of Jonah

A poets says ' I thought everyone in the world was band and Evil until i got to know one person. That person was myself. From that day everybody else was the Best and i was the most evil and bad'

consider the dua of Jonah (a.s), when he said 'My rabb i am from those who have wronged themselves'

Alhamdolillah: the way to true dawah!

As Salaam Alaykum.


In the village of Kandhala in India a dispute arose between the muslims and the Hindus over some land; the hindus claimed that the land belonged to them and wanted to build a temple on it, the muslims claimed the land belonged to them and wanted to build a mosque on it.

The case went to court, both sides were asked to produce evidence as to whom the land belonged to. The Hindus said there is a pious elder in our village called Illahi Baksh (ra) what ever testimony he gives we will accept it. The Muslims were delighted, after all one of their own would be able to testify on their behalf, so they also stated that Shaykh Illahi Baksh's(ra) verdict would be acceptable to them.

Shaykh Illahi Baksh(ra) was summoned to court and asked who the Land belonged to he said: " I don't know who the land belongs to, but one thing I do Know is that it does not belong to the Muslims."

So the Hindus Won the court case the deeds of the land were handed over to them. In the courtroom their was chaos, the Muslims were incensed, as the Shaykh was leaving the court people were jostling him, shouting insults calling him a Hindu agent etc.

As he managed to extract him self from the mob of Muslim's. the Hindus were waiting on the other side, the Hindus came over and said:"Maulana Sahib here are the deeds of the land , we want you to build a mosque, and we shall also worship in it, Maulana sahib we want to be Muslim just like you, for today you have proven the beauty and justice of Islam."

Shaykh Illahi Baksh by behaving justly in accordance with the teachings of Islam managed to win over a whole community, they all embraced Islam.

Something to reflect:

How often do we fall into the sin of injustice, we support our relatives in disputes with others even though we know they are wrong, similarly with those who belong to our ethnic group, tribe, clan, and those who are fellow muslim's we seek to make excuses for them in their transgressions towards others. 

May Allah give us the Tawfiq and strength to stand for what is just, ameen.

To be aware of neeyat

Ghaus al-Azam Sayyadna Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jilani rahmatullah alaih said:
You are a Muslim when you are with people, but in your lonliness, you are not.
You are servant of Allah when with people, but actually you are servant of money.

This means our intentions are all for this world, but to show others we call ourselves true muslims.

Thanks

Contemplation for this Ramadan

AS Salaam Alaykum:

Umar Al Farooq(ra). Said:
" Judge Yourselves before you yourselves are judged;and weigh yourselves before you yourselves are weighed in the balance. When you are brought to account tomorrow, it will be much easier for you if you have already brought your selves to account today-so do so, before you come to the final gathering "

*source 'The Purification Of The Soul'.


Just A thought.

Is it not a case that our own egos can be very deceptive, whilst sometimes our initial intentions, may be pure, We may have a desire to share the words of wisdom and knowledge we have learned, to help benefit others or perhaps we may raise issues as a reminder for ourselves. If we feel proud when others compliment us, or praise us; Then surely we should reflect whether our initial intention has remained pure. Praise from others can ruin a thousand good intentions, the ego is massaged the disease of pride and vanity become dominant in our hearts, we end up engaging in debates to prove the greatness of our knowledge even though we end up neither benefiting ourselves nor others.



May Allah protect us from Vanity and give us the Tawfiq to do good purely for his sake, May Allah protect us all from the excessive praise of others especially a hypocrite like me, ameen.

Two things to think about


Al Hasan Al Basri (ra) said," You always see the believer reproaching himself and saying things like: Did I want this? Why did I do that? Was this a better thing to do or should I have behaved otherwise?


Hazrat Umar Al Farooq (ra) Said: 
"The Wisest Of Men is he who can account for his own actions."



May Allah give us all the Tawfiq to examine our own faults and rectify them ameen.

A story to contemplate

Shaqeeq Bin Ibraheem (ra) says: " In four things a person conforms with me by way of his tongue but opposes me by way of his deeds.

1.) He says that we are the servants (and slaves) of Allah subhanahu wa tala,
Yet does the deeds of free people.

2.) He says that Allah subhanahu wa tala is responsible, for our sustenance, yet his heart is not at ease upon this responsibility until at such time that he is not in possession of any worldly material;

3). He says that the hereafter holds virtue over the world, yet he always worries about hoarding wealth for this world (he has no worry for the hereafter);

4.) He says that death is inevitable, it will definitely come, yet his deeds are like those who do not want to die."

In short we spend our whole lives in the pursuit of wealth, material things and violating the rights of others, It fails to register with us that one day we shall die, only our deeds will accompany us to the grave: Often we find people who fall out with their loved ones over something petty, they spend the rest of their lives in enmity, neither willing to apologise, or compromise.If one of them passes away then the one who remains alive is filled with remorse of course by then it is too late to make ammends.

Enhance your good deeds, settle your debts, Make ammends with those whom 
you have fallen out with, does it really matter whose right ,or whose in the wrong, Will our status be lowered if we are the ones who compromise and offer an apology.

May Allah give us all the tawfiq to reform ourselves, and a hypocrite like myself
in particular ameen.

glimmers of insight

Came back from one of the best feeling vacations yesterday. New York  of all places!
The difference that going away has made is given me greater clarity.
I no longer feel the need to keep on looking but know that its going to take more doing.
The changes i feel in my body may be detox: more achey breakey right now. Hopefully it will go away.
I will continue with the h2o2 oxidation, the orgon placement, using ormus, the deworming, the bach remedies whilst still pursuing the MD thing...and lots of still time meditation as well the abundance course.
I will introduce living water in our lives as well as growing vegetables in the backyard.
I will continue with 'wa man yataqallaho.."
I will prepare for Shaban and Ramadan

great site to plan off of!!

http://www.whitemagicway.com/bio-architecture.html

Am I ready for it?

What if you had the ability to change the world but didn't know you had it?

Let's say your best friend was a master metaphysician and he made mental notes of everything you talked about. Let's say all your wants, needs, and desires were instantly put into the master metaphysician's "want program" for you, without your knowledge, to be fulfilled. Suppose this "want program" doesn't provide instantaneous results but relies on cause and effect to fulfill the wants -- i.e., you want a new car, and a month later your favorite uncle dies and wills you his 2008 Buick.

Now, here's the rub... You don't know your friend is a master metaphysician, and you may never know. Everything you want and desire is put in the program whether you want it there or not, and you have no idea how long it'll take to fulfill or what circumstances will manifest to make them happen.

Assume all humans had a master metaphysician as a best friend ... all 6 billion of them. Statistically, if 1% of the Earth's population are psychopaths and 15% are schizophrenics, and all their deranged wants and desires become fulfilled with no reasonable restraint, it's no wonder this planet is in the state it's in.

You may be asking yourself at this point, "If I can get anything I want, and I want world peace, why don't we have it?"

Because some wants take more time than others. You wouldn't play the slot machines if you had to wait a month to see if you won. If 2% of humanity wanted world peace we'd have it, but a longer program like world peace usually takes a back seat to instant gratification like dinner or getting laid, which could be fulfilled by Saturday night. 

The 1-percenters, the psychopaths that rule the world, are forming their world government through chaos and control because they collectively want it, and have wanted it for a long, long time.

Think how the world would be if only 50% of humanity wanted world peace, end of hunger, enlightenment for all, and instantaneous fulfillment of wants and needs on a personal scale.

We're moving in a direction that shortens the time between wanting something and having something. Eventually, time and space will converge to make everything instantaneous. That time is 2012. Is it?

Are you ready for it? Am I ?
