Understand Quran

Assalamualaikum all, This piece is a 'cut n paste' information. I got it through email from Islamic Online University and found it interesting and would like to share it with others, also to keep it for  my future reference. Here it goes: ================================================================= Top ten things you miss every day when you don’t understand the Qur’an ! There are two main things you have to do. The first is to move your heart from dwelling on  the things of this world and move it to dwell on the Hereafter, then focus all your heart on  the Qur’an and ponder its meanings and why it was revealed. Try to understand something  from every ayah and apply it to the disease of your heart. These ayaat were revealed (to  treat) the disease of the heart, so you will be healed, by the permission of Allah. —Ibn al-Qayyim [d. 751H/1350CE] on curing one’s heart Will you become a better person? Today we are going to focus on how the Qur’an can make y

An-Nisa: 136

Assalamualaikum all, Wahai orang-orang yang beriman! Tetapkanlah iman kamu kepada Allah dan RasulNya, dan kepada Kitab Al-Quran yang telah diturunkan kepada RasulNya (Muhammad s.a.w) dan juga kepada Kitab-kitab Suci yang telah diturunkan dahulu daripada itu dan sesiapa yang kufur ingkar kepada Allah dan Malaikat-malaikatNya, dan Kitab-kitabNya dan Rasul-rasulNya dan juga Hari Akhirat, maka sesungguhnya dia telah sesat dengan kesesatan yang amat jauh. (136)  Clear, and concise. That's a reminder that Allah has given us from this verse. May we are among the mukminin.  Allah has listed the criteria to become the mukminin. Allah has stated that the mukminin are those that: 1. Belief in Allah  2.  Belief in  Rasul 3.  Belief in Quran and other Kitab that has been delivered from Allah to the previous Prophets. 4.  Belief in Angels 5. Belief in the day Hereafter These are the pillars for our IMAN. Remember we used to recite the RUKUN IMAN when we were small? It is

Train and me

Assalamualaikum dear readers, Look closely at the photo below ..... Very unique isn't it. You seldom found it nowadays. But ... I found it I found it at Butterworth Railway Station I cannot remember it was there before. When recently I went to station and saw this, it captured my attention This is a seat designed for passengers, their family and friends to sit on while waiting for the train to arrive. It was made from hard wood.  I guess it must be old enough but can still stand for more years to come. I was at the railway Station at dawn to fetch my sister one morning in December 2012. It was a beautiful morning. Listening to whistle blowing, and later the sound of the choo-choo train approaching was a momentos. We used to ride the train for hours when we were living in Kuala Krai, Kelantan. It was a long ride back then. We will get on the train at 2pm from Kuala Krai station and reach Kuala Lumpur the next day. Since Bapak is working with the Railway

As-Salam

Assalamualaikum semua. Sedang menunggu mesyuarat bermula, aku membelek-belek Solusi lama. Terjumpa hadis ini yang diriwayatkan oleh Muslim. Rasulallah SAW bersabda, maksudnya: "Kamu tidak akan masuk ke syurga sehingga kamu beriman. Dan kamu tidak akan beriman sehingga kamu saling mencintai. Mahukah kamu aku beritahu sesuatu yang jika dilakukan maka kamu akan saling mencintai? Sebarkanlah salam antara kamu." Subhanallah, mudah sungguh laluan ke syurga. Tetapi tidak mudah untuk memilikinya kerana kita ada nafsu dan syaitan yang perlu ditewaskan. JOM BAGI SALAM. Wassalam.

Putrajaya Here We Come

Assalamualaikum, This is among the series of family outing that we enjoyed during the last school holiday. It was a visit to Putrajaya. This happened when Mak, Nan and Calee came for a visit during the holidays.  It was Sunday, we did not know where to take them but wanted to take them out. It was a surprised for the kids when ayah suddenly suggested a visit to Putrajaya. Putrajaya? What is there to see? We went there several times to Nisa's house (my niece) but what's so special to call for a visit to Putrajaya??? Hakim sulked. He thought it will be much better to stay home and play games all day long. He had no choice but to tag along. Arriving Putrajaya, we wondered .... Where to? We then decided to stop near Masjid Putra. And Masjid Besi was also on my list. After stopping at Masjid Putra, again we wondered, What's next??? And we went down to lakeside area. I hurried myself to the cruise station, hoping to get on one. Not many people were there. It was Mak

Good bye Hakim. Miss you Hakim.

Ikmal Hakim at his new 'home' Salam all, This photo was taken on the 1st January 2013.  Looking at the faces, i have no regrets with my decision. I know that this is the best. Nothing in the world can beat the kind of knowledge I am preparing him with. Allah knows best. I wish him the very best of luck. May him succeed in the path he has chosen. Someone was asking, "Do you miss him?".  Of course I do. Who will not miss a 10 year old jewel of the heart? We missed his voices, we missed his grumbles. Sabrina misses his mischievous behavior. We missed his presence. Meeting him twice a month is something we look forward to. Ya Allah! bestow my children with maghfirah, barakah and rahmah. May they succeed in the world and hereafter. AMEEN. dr marina ismail
