1. Bake a cake for your neighbors

It’s amazing what effect reaching out to our neighbors can have. A simple gesture such as baking a cake for them can really change their perception of Islam and Muslims. It is those little day-to-day interactions that make people think twice about how Islam is often portrayed in the media.

Written by Asma Bint Shameem

Fa tima saw her sister's kids straying from the guidance of Allaah. She became very concerned.

After all, those kids were like her own. She loved them dearly and wanted to save them from any sin they might fall into. Knowing that she will not have much control over the kids themselves, she decided to talk to her sister directly and advise her sincerely for the sake of Allaah about what she saw the kids doing.

The Greatest Da'wah Tool

qur'aan34

I was coming back from a long journey, and Allâh decreed that my seat in the airplane should be beside a group of carefree young men whose loud laughter and voices were too much, and the air was filled with clouds of smoke from their cigarettes. By the wisdom of Allâh, the plane was completely full and I could not change my seat.

I tried to escape from the problem by sleeping, but it was impossible… When I got fed up of their noise, I took out my Mushaf (copy of the Qur’ân), and started to read what I could of the Qur’ân in a soft voice. Soon after that these young men started to quieten down. Some of them started to read newspapers, and some of them fell asleep.

tabarruj

The one who disobeys Allaah and His Messenger (sall-Allaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) can only harm himself and can not in any way harm Allaah. The Messenger (sall-Allaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “All of my followers will enter Paradise except those who refuse.” It was asked: “O Messenger of Allaah, who would refuse?” He (sall-Allaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “He who obeys me enters Paradise and he who disobeys me has refused.” (Reported by al-Bukhaaree) Read more...

Jilbaab & the Muslim Woman's Identity

quraan

The sources in Islamic law are primarily the Qur’aan and Sunnah[1]. The Qur’an, the book held sacred by Muslims, con tains approximately 500 verses dealing with diverse topics which are of a legal relevance. The Sunnah represents the repository of reports of sayings, acts and consent of the Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam). The role of the Sunnah is seen as an elaboration of the Quranic injunctions. There are other sources which derive from the two primary sources and they are the Ijmaa’ (legal consensus), Qiyaas (analogical deduction) and other disputed sources but they arjilbaabe not relevant to the discussion at hand. Islamic law is comprehensive in its enunciation of a code of conduct with respect to an individual’s life and dealings with others. Read more...

Respect for Niqaab

niqaab

There is a lot of debate among Muslims as to whether or not it is required for a Muslim woman to cover her face and hands in addition to the rest of her body when appearing in public or in front of non-Mahram [i.e. men who is not a close-relative, to whom marriage is allowed] men. The purpose of this article is not to fall on either side of that debate, but to urg e all Muslims to show respect for sisters who have chosen to wear either the khimaar (head-cover which covers the hair, ears, neck and chest properly) or the niqaab (face-veil.) Some Muslims give these sisters a hard time, saying that they are doing above and beyond what has been commanded by Allah (Subhaanahu wa ta'ala), and that the "extreme" appearance of these fully-veiled women projects a bad image to the non-Muslims who already view the Muslim woman as weak and oppressed.
