I'de like to share this poem with you.

A Dialogue with the shaytaan
By: Sheikh Aa’ed Al Karny

Deep at night, I had this dialogue with Satan. Shortly, I heard the Fajr prayer call. I wanted to go to the mosque.

  •  He said: “The night is still long, so take a nap.”
  •  I said: “I’m afraid I’ll miss my obligatory prayer!”
  •  He said: “There is much time to go ”
  •  I said: “I’m afraid I’ll miss praying in congregation.”
  •  He said: “Don’t be too harsh on yourself in worship.”
Then, I didn’t wake up until the sun had already risen.


  • He whispered to me again saying: “Don’t feel sorry for what you have missed. The day is still full of many other chances.”
As soon as I started mentioning Allah, he brought to my mind all kinds of thoughts.
  • I said: “You are diverting me from making Duaa’.”
  • He said: “Just delay it until the night.” Shortly, I intended to repent.
  • He said: “Enjoy your young age before it comes to an end”!
  • I said: “I’m too afraid of death.”
  • He said: “But your life will not end now.”
I started to memorize Qor’an
  • He said: “Entertain yourself with songs.”
  • I said: “But it’s an unlawful thing to do.”
  • He said: “Scholars differed on that matter
  • I said: “The evidences from the Prophet’s sayings (peace be upon him) are with me”
  • He said: “But you know their sources are weak!”
A beautiful lady passed by, so I lowered my gaze.
  • He said: “What’s wrong? It’s just a gaze”!
  • I said: “A gaze puts me in a dangerous place.”
  • He said: “It’s lawful to contemplate in grace.”
I went to the Kaaba (The Ancient House of Allah). There he was with me on the way.
  • He said: “What’s the reason behind this trip?”
  • I said: “To make ‘Umrah’.”
  • He said: “You have risked dangers (on your travel) to do this Umra.
  • Don’t you know that good deeds have plenty of other doors?!!”
  • I said: “But my life needs a change for the better”
  • He said: “Don’t you know that you can’t enter Paradise through your deeds?
I went to give advice to people.
  • He said: ”Don’t put yourself in an embaressing situation.
  • I said: “But, my only aim is to benefit others.”
  • He said: “That’s a trap of self-admiration, and it is indeed the head of corruption.”
  • I said: “Tell me your opinion about some people.”
  • He said: “ I can answer you of the private, as well as the general.”
  • I said: “Ahmed Ibn Hanbal?”
  • He said: “His calling to follow Quraan and Sunnah was killing me.”
  • I said: “Ibn Taymeyah?”
  • He said: “His words hit my head like a daily beating.”
  • I said: “Al-Bukhari?”
  • He said: “I can even burn my house with his book.”
  • I said: “Al-Haggag?”
  • He said: “I wish 1000 of men are like him. His way is cure and happiness to my colleagues of Satans.”
  • I said: “Pharoah?”
  • He said: “Oh, to him victory and support we owe.”
  • I said: “Saladin, the Hero of the battle of “Hetteen”?”
  • He said: “Let us not talk of him…he brought humiliation to my sons, and buried our heads in mud.”
  • I said: “Mohamed Ibn Abdul Wahab?”
  • He said: “His messages were like the heavenly fiery stars that were burning my heart”
  • I said: “Abu Jahl?”
  • He said: “The best kinship and brothers we are.”
  • I said: “Abu Lahab?”
  • He said: “We are together in every step forever.”
  • I said: “Lenin?”
  • He said: “Bounded by me, with Stalin on fire.”
  • I said: “Nude Magazines?”
  • He said: “Are my holy books.”
  • I said: “Satellites?”
  • He said: “Make people diabolical.”
  • I said: “Coffee Shops?”
  • He said: “Welcome everyone who is diverted from Allah and the right way.”
  • I said: “What is your duaa (athkaar)?”
  • He said: “Songs.”
  • I said: “What is your job?”
  • He said: “ False Hopes.”
  • I said: “What do you think about the Markets?”
  • He said: “Clubs where my friends meet.”
  • I said: “What do you think of the Socialist party?”
  • He said: “It is with which I have shared all my belongings, to whom I taught all my thoughts, intentions and prayers.”
  • I said: “How do you misguide people?”
  • He said: “By desires, doubts, distracting amusements, hopes and songs.”
  • I said: “How do you misguide women?”
  • He said: “I tempt them towards showing off their beauty, and favoring the prohibited over the lawful.
  • I said: “How do you misguide the Scholars?”
  • He said: “By paving the way for them to admiration and showing off, and by planting envy and pride in their hearts.”
  • I said: “How do you misguide people as general?”
  • He said: “Through back-biting, tale-fabrication, wasting their times in things of no value and in useless cheap conversations.”
  • I said: “How do you misguide merchants?”
  • He said: “By tempting them to deal with bribery, making them hate paying charity and by making spendthriftness beloved.”
  • I said: “How do you misguide young people?”
  • He said: “By making them fall in the trap of love, reckless in following Allah’s orders and committing the prohibited.”
  • I said: “What do you think of “Israel”, the Jewish state?”
  • He said: “Oh, don’t try to backbite and speak ill of my beloved home country, the most dear to my heart.”
  • I said: “What do you think of Abu Nawwas?”
  • He said: “Such a respectful character. His poems really inspired me.”
  • I said: “And “modernity”?”
  • He said: “The inheritors of our satanic knowledge.”
  • I said: “Secularity?”
  • He said: “That’s my belief, and its believers are the cheating magicians and creators of false hopes. We all bear same names.”
  • I said: “What do you think of Washington?”
  • He said: “The state of my beloved ones and the base for my army. Indeed it is my nation.”
  • I said: “What do you think of those people who call to the word of Allah?”
  • He said: “They are torturing me! They inflict a lot of pain and misery on me. They made me an old man with gray hair! They destroy all what I build! They make noise when I speak, read when I sing, and seek refuge from me when I show up.”
  • I said: “What do you say about newspapers?”
  • He said: “Means for wasting people’s time, especially that of the elite, and means for stealing money.”
  • I said: “What do you think of the BBC?”
  • He said: “It’s my weapon. Through it I put the poison in the honey, ignite wars between Arabs & the other nations and flatter both the oppressor and oppressed.”
  • I said: “What did you do with the Crow?”
  • He said: “I made him kill his brother and bury him under earth till he disappeared.”
  • I said: “What did you do with Karoon?”
  • He said: “I whispered to him: You son of the old man. Save the treasuries to win. You are one of the greatest men.”
  • I said: “What did you say to Pharoah?”
  • He said: “I told him: You are the greatest one in the palace. To win say: “Isn’t it me who possess the power over Egypt?”.”
  • I said: “What did you say to the one who drinks wine?”
  • He said: “I told him you should drink this grape’s juice. It is the answer to all your problems. It wipes out your troubles. And don’t worry, you know the way to repentance and its doors are always opened for you.”
  • I said: “What kills you?”
  • He said: “Reading the verses of “Al Kursy” (the Chair). It prevents me from breathing and makes me feel I’m in an eternal prison, in a night full of misery.”
  • I said: “Who are the most beloved people to you?”
  • He said: “Singers, poets that aim at misguiding people, sins doers, and every cunning person who goes astray.”
  • I said: “Who is the most hateful person to you?”
  • He said: “Mosque-goers, everyone who kneels and prostrates to Allah, every pious and sincere worshipper, and every fighter in the cause of Allah.”
  • I said: “I hereby seek refuge in Allah from you.”
The moment I said so, he disappeared as though melting into the sand - and this is the liar’s end.

Mothers day?!?!?

Asalamu alaykum(peace be upon you)

Mothers day. A day where you appreciate your mother by bringing her breakfast in bed, flowers, and gifts.
Every sensible Muslim should be asking themselves, Wait! Shouldn't we be doing those things for our mother every single day? Including making Dua (supplications) for her to be entered into jannah and to have her mistakes pardoned. Why then has it been given a day of the year when it should be year round?

Let us remember the hadeeths(saying/actions) of our blessed prophet Muhammed ( May Allah shower His peace blessing upon him)

A man came to the Prophet and said,‘O Messenger of God! Who among the people is the most worthy of my good companionship? The Prophet said: Your mother. The man said, ‘Then who?’ The Prophet said: Then your mother. The man further asked, ‘Then who?’ The Prophet said: Then your mother. The man asked again, ‘Then who?’ The Prophet said: Then your father. (Bukhari, Muslim).

The Prophet Muhammad said, may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him: Your Heaven lies under the feet of your mother (Ahmad, Nasai).

Abu Usaid Saidi said: We were once sitting with The Messenger Of Allah (peace be upon him) when a man from the tribe of Salmah came and said to him: O Messenger of Allah! do my parents have rights over me even after they have died? And Rasulullah said: Yes. You must pray to Allah to bless them with His Forgiveness and Mercy, fulfill the promises they made to anyone, and respect their relations and their friends (Abu Dawud and Ibn Majah)


Both parents are honoured  by Allah subhaanahu wa a'aala in the Holy Qur'an. Don't be mistaken.

Surah 17 Ayah 23



Thy Lord hath decreed that ye worship none but Him, and that ye be kind to parents. Whether one or both of them attain old age in thy life, say not to them a word of contempt, nor repel them, but address them in terms of honour.

Surah 6 Ayah 151


Say: "Come, I will rehearse what Allah hath (really) prohibited you from": Join not anything as equal with Him; be good to your parents; kill not your children on a plea of want;- We provide sustenance for you and for them;- come not nigh to shameful deeds. Whether open or secret; take not life, which Allah hath made sacred, except by way of justice and law: thus doth He command you, that ye may learn wisdom.



May Allah subhaanahu wa ta'aala bless our parents, May He subhaanahu wa ta'aala pardon their mistakes and grant them the highest place in Jannah. Amiin

Women under the shade of Islam

Today I have a book recommendation as opposed to a video. This is a book I'm reading and am not yet finished. Misconceptions and stereotypes are often aided by ignorance. When people don't know and don't understand they begin to assume. Knowledge is important for every Muslim male or female. This book is great in that it outlines the things that we really need to know about the fundamental ie Belief, prayer, fasting, purification.

Hijab

Peace be upon you.

The Hijab is the Muslim womens convering or veil. It is her modesty and it shows anyone and everyone who looks at her that she is no ordinary women but that she is a women who has submitted herself to Allah subhaanahu wa ta'aala. The Hijab is a protection of her modesty and her chastity. Despite living in a society full of people who think that being modest and chaste is strange many Muslimahs continue to wear their hijabs and thats because they where it for the sake of Allah Subhaanahu wa ta'aala Insha Allah. They are obeying the Command of Allah subhaanahu wa ta'aala when He says in Holy Qur'an

Surah 33 Ayah 59

"O Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks (veils) all over their bodies (i.e.screen themselves completely except the eyes or one eye to see the way). That will be better, that they should be known (as free respectable women) so as not to be annoyed. And Allah is Ever Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful."

Surah 24 verse 31

"And say to the believing women that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty; that they should not display their beauty and ornaments except what (must ordinarily) appear thereof; that they should draw their veils over their bosoms and not display their beauty except to their husbands, their fathers, their husband's fathers, their sons, their husbands' sons, their brothers or their brothers' sons, or their sisters' sons, or their women, or the slaves whom their right hands possess, or male servants free of physical needs, or small children who have no sense of the shame of sex; and that they should not strike their feet in order to draw attention to their hidden ornaments. And O ye Believers! turn ye all together towards Allah, that ye may attain Bliss."

Shaytaan is always plotting and planning to distract people from the path of Allah subhaanahu wa ta'aala and so he makes people think that wearing tonz of make up and wearing a super shiny/sparkle scarf around your neck is proper hijab. hijab has guidlines.
