Imperialist Agenda To Defame Islam
IMPERIALIST AGENDA TO DEFAME ISLAM
Imperialists have been using the 'false alarm' of Islamic radicalization especially after 9/11 to justify their invasions of Muslim countries. Basically the war on terror is war on Islam so many Islamic scholars and Islamic activists around the world have come forward after 9/11 to defend the image of Islam. The fact is we need more and more true Muslims to clarify the false notions about Islam in these times only for the sake of ALLAH Almighty (swt).

'Naya Pakistan' and Islamabad Shutdown
'NAYA PAKISTAN' AND ISLAMABAD SHUTDOWN
- By S Roman Ahsan.
POSTED AT: http://bit.ly/2e9anA1
Many Pakistanis like me do not support any political party. Imran Khan 'might' not be a corrupt politician but he is always giving examples of the models of Sweden or Switzerland whenever he is talking about future of Pakistan. Unfortunately his upbringing is too posh for a country like Pakistan.
Pakistan is a poor country. A patriotic national leader in Pakistan should talk about the lessons of simplicity foremost while addressing people in his processions. We do need excellent standards in all spheres of country but first of all we have to start with simple lifestyles.
By simple lifestyles, it does not mean that we do not make progress in technology, healthcare and education. It only means that on overall basis we should strive for simple living without unnecessary focus on luxuries. Auto-loans or car-loans offered by financial institutions should be dropped for example.
And do we know that Imran Khan's Shaukat Khanum medical labs tests are very expensive for common people in Pakistan? We get our mother's tests done from Shaukat Khan lab in Model town, Lahore due to convenience in distance only otherwise they are not affordable. But I assure you that an average middle class family in Pakistan cannot afford the tests at Shaukat Khan Labs.
Sharif's family Ittefaq Hospital (Trust) in Model Town, Lahore is providing services since the 1990s at least. If one has any experience of this hospital, then one would exclaim that it has "smooth functioning" for all of its medical facilities and services. For the poor, the hospital waives off fees also and not just Shaukat Khanum Hospital. Another thing is that Ittefaq Hospital (Trust) has not been built with the help of money raised from concerts and shows including those with participation by Indian Celebrities unlike Shaukat Khan Hospital. It is because late father of Nawaz Sharif was a religious person.
It cannot be said that Imran Khan and his party have not taken some sincere steps for the country but what kind of NAYA PAKISTAN is Imran Khan dreaming of if his medical labs are catering services to only the top 5% (roughly speaking) of the society in Pakistan instead of the common people?
I have been supporting Imran Khan all along but my fixation with him was over when his second marriage (again with a glamour girl) ended in divorce just in 10 months. I am sorry, personal life of a leader of a Muslim country does matter, at least for me. It shows one's inclinations and how mature one is really in making choices.
Islamabad shut-down rally is an extreme and dangerous step for Pakistan in these times. It should be avoided and especially since Mr. Imran Khan is himself neither perfect nor very mature. 'If' a Pakistani leader is corrupt, we have to think of other ways on how to expose him while not ignoring one's own demerits / weaknesses.

(URDU) - Our media is taking you where
معاف کیجئے گا ۔۔ اس قوم کو ڈاکٹر اور سائنسدان نہیں
خوبصورت بچے اور بچیاں چاہئے۔۔۔!!
خوبصورت بچے اور بچیاں چاہئے۔۔۔!!
جبھی تو "خوبصورت" چائے والے کو میڈیا "منظرعام" پر لاتا ہے اور "مایہ ناز ایٹمی سائنسدان" کو "نظر بند" کرتے ہیں اور فٹ پاتھ پر جگہ دیتے ہیں۔۔
سوچئے آپ کو میڈیا اور لبرل این جی اوز کہاں لے جانا چاہتے ہیں۔۔!!
آ تجھ کو بتاوں میں تقدیر امم کیا ہے ،
شمشیر و سناں اول طاؤس و رباب آخر
شمشیر و سناں اول طاؤس و رباب آخر
**اقبال**
(آو تمہیں بتاتا ہوں کہ امتوں کی تقدیر میں عروج و زوال کب ہوتا ہے۔۔۔ جب تلواریں اور ڈھالوں کی آواز آئے تو وہ امت کے عروج کا وقت ہے اور جب گانوں اور باجوں کی آواز آئے تو سمجھ لو کہ یہ امت کے زوال کا وقت ہے)

He needs your support
HE NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT
The people in our country are attracted to style, looks and glamour without paying much
attention to inner character and true deeds that matter. Hafiz Saeed and his organization
Jamaat-ud-Dawa have helped and cared for Muslims in Palestine, Indonesia, Burma, Afghanistan and others.
Does he not deserve recognition and our support? Do we have the guts? Are we afraid of being labelled fundamentalists or fanatics?

Bliss in Paradise
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
"Indeed ALLAH is with those
who patiently endure." - Qur'an (8: 46)
A hadith is given below. I was elated when someone first told me about 7-8 years ago that the dwellers of paradise will not have beard:) So beard is only prescribed for this world and one should take care of other major obligations towards ALLAH and people also first...

English Print Media in Pakistan
I have worked in THE NATION, magazine section in 2008-09 as Sub-Editor but after demise of Majeed Nizami the content of paper is devoid of the spirit of patriotism and lacks moral direction for the nation. In fact, this is true for all main English Newspapers in Pakistan.

The Story of a Valley
THE STORY OF A VALLEY
Sages say that thousands of year ago, there was a valley where people lived and carried on with their daily trade and rituals of life. Unfortunately, they were involved in very sinful ways and openly violated the laws of God. At last, God decided to punish the whole community. The Lord told the angels to wipe away every one of them. The angels said that there were some good people also in that community. God ordered that those righteous men should be destroyed first because they do not guide the other wicked people about what is good and what is evil.
This shows the importance of guiding others. However, first we need to have 'correct' beliefs ourselves through constant learning and become good humans though we can never become perfect. Next, we should proceed and do whatever we can to fight the darkness. It is not required for all people to become leaders, scholars or revolutionaries as we all have different and unique strengths. Whatever little we do out of a clean heart can be accepted in the way of ALLAH (God Almighty).

The Amazing Fruit, Pomegranate
The Amazing Fruit, Pomegranate
Pomegranate is an amazing fruit which is offered towards the end of Summer season. Both sweet and sour tastes make it a mouth-watering treat. We should make it a point to taste any fruit which is offered by different seasons. Fresh fruit of any season has always got some health-benefits and it should be preferred over quick snacks and junk food. Fruit is also cheaper than the different kinds of snacks in the stores, so why not?
Someone said that we should eat the seeds of pomegranate together with the internal cort, the white membrane which separates the sections of seeds. She said that though the internal cort is bitter but it helps in the prevention of heart and stomach diseases, and that she has seen many Turkish and Polish people eating it. I was not sure about it as we always threw away the white membrane instead of eating it.
When I bought the fruit this year, I asked the local fruit vendor about eating the inner white membrane in pomegranate. He said it is good for preventing gastric ailments. Hence, that way I cross-verified the fact about eating the internal cort of Pomegranate and the information about eating it is also given on the Internet.

nd u know if u eat it with internal bitter Cort,u may feel virulence for a while but it's cure for many diseases specially for heart and stomach diseases.

This is not Islam
What some Muslim groups do on ‘Ashoora’ by beating their chests, slapping their cheeks, striking their shoulders with chains and cutting their heads with swords to let the blood flow are all innovations that have no basis in Islam. These things are evils that were forbidden by the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), who did not prescribe for his ummah to do any of these things or anything similar to them to mark the death of a leader or the loss of a martyr, no matter what his status.
During his lifetime (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) a number of senior Sahaabah were martyred and he mourned their loss, such as Hamzah ibn ‘Abd al-Muttalib (ra), Zayd ibn Haarithah (ra), Ja’far ibn Abi Taalib (ra) and ‘Abd-Allaah ibn Rawaahah (ra), but he did not do any of the things that these people do. If it was good, he (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) would have done it before us.
Al-Bukhaari (1294) and Muslim (103) narrated that ‘Abd-Allaah ibn Mas’ood (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “He is not one of us who strikes his cheeks, rends his garment, or cries with the cry of the Jaahiliyyah.” -

Tragedy of Karbala
TRAGEDY OF KARBALA
We Muslims love ALLAH and His Prophet (pbuh). And we love the close companions (Sahaaba) Radhi Allah Anhu of our Prophet (s.a.w.w.) also. After Hadhrat Abu-Bakr (ra), the rest of all the three Caliphs of Islam (Hadhrat Umar (ra), Hadhrat Usman (ra) and Hadhrat Ali (ra) ). were martyred,
However, the incident of Karbala is a highly tragic event where 72 members of our Prophet's (pbuh) grandson's family, including small children were martyred. Out of prejudice, some Muslim groups don't pay any tribute to the incident of Karbala. At least we should do zikr of Hadhrat Imam Hussain (ra) and incident of Karbala, even if we don't believe in mourning over that incident.
Also, it is important to mention here that it is very immature to equate the feat(s) of any Pakistani Politician with the high status of the grandson of our Prophet (pbuh). Hassan (ra) and Hussain (ra) will be the leaders of the youth in paradise according to our Holy Prophet (pbuh) . By youth in paradise, it means those who die in young age in this world in the way of ALLAH.
Sheikh Imran Hosein, a Sunni Scholar explains the status of Hadhrat Imam Hussain (ra) in this brief video clip:

The Great war and Internet
The Great war and Internet
Assalam o alaikum to all!
It is possible that the Great war May commence any day now.If it does, then we can expect that the internet will be shut down and we will lose this form of contact with each other. Let me therefore take the opportunity to remind that we should stock up on non-perishable food, drinking water and energy. We will need wood for cooking. and torchlights (with spare batterires) for light. Whatever the future holds in store we must constantly recite the Qur'an.
With Love,

The Liberal Lover of Islam
THE LIBERAL LOVER OF ISLAM
Many educated Muslims do love Islam but they have many liberal tendencies also.
This is due to the exposure to various environments in the country starting with school, college/university, eating places or restaurants, superstores, cinemas, clubs, home-environment, sports spots, relatives/friends, media sources (Internet, TV, cell-phones etc.). All these affect our inclinations or tendencies.
Hence, there are many times when we are claiming to be good Muslim but we have liberal tendencies also. Islam is NOT liberal, it is conservative in spirit. Therefore we need to apply checks and balances here and there. And it is true, only ALLAH Almighty will judge us in the end but we still have to try our best so that we achieve success in afterlife eventually - Aameen Sum Aameen.

Imran Khan Needs To Change Himself First
Imran Khan Needs To Change Himself First
ایک صاحب عمران خان کو امام حسین رضی اللہ عنہ سے ملا رہے تھے۔ انھیں میرا یہ جواب ہے:
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
آلِ رسول (صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہِ وسلم) کبھی اپنے نسب پر فخر نہیں کرتے کیونکہ اللہ تعالٰی کے نزدیک برتری کا اصل معیار نیک اعمال اور تقوٰی ہیں- لیکن الحمداللہ میں سید ہونے کے ناطے اپنے بزرگ حضرت امام حسین رضی اللہ عنہ کے ساتھ ایسی من گھڑت نسبت کبھی برداشت نہیں کر سکتا-
سیدنا حضرت امام حسین رضی اللہ عنہ اور ان کے گھر والوں کے کردار کے بارے میں پہلے پڑھیں اور خدارا اوپرآپ نے جوکہانی لکھی ہے اس سے گریز کریں-
جو جس مقام کا اہل ہے، اسے اتنا ہی مقام دیں، نہ زیادہ مقام سے بڑھائیں اور نہ ہی مقام سے گرائیں۔ بات یہ ہے کہ اس میں کوئی شک نہیں کہ عمران خان صاحب میں بہت خوبیاں ہیں لیکن اسلام کی رُو سے خواتین کا اس طرح رات گئے مجمعے میں پردے کے بغیر شمولیت نہایت فاسق عمل ہے اور اگر عمران خان ایمان کی بات کرتے ہیں تو پہلے انھیں اس بات کا اہتمام کرنا چاہیئے کہ خواتین مغرب کے بعد مجمع میں نظر نہ آئیں- مجھے پتہ ہے کہ بہت سے لوگ اس پر “مولوی“ کا طعنہ دیں گے کیونکہ یہ آپ لوگوں کا محبوب مشغلہ ہے اور اس طرح آپ لوگ اپنے آپ کو اسلامی قوانین سے بری الزماں کر لیتے ہیں۔ اگر آپ چاہیں تو کسی اچھے اسلامی اسکالر (بلکہ اسکالرز) سے بھی مشورہ کر سکتے ہیں،
اس وقت میرے جیسے لوگ کسی بھی سیاسی پارٹی کو سپورٹ نہیں کرتے کیونکہ یہ سیاسی نظام ہی باطل ہے۔
اور بھی بہت سی باتیں ہیں لیکن ہضم نہ ہوں گی آپ کو۔ ہم سب گناہ گار ہیں لیکن ہم سب “نیا پاکستان“ بنانے کا دعوٰی نہیں کر رہے۔ حقیقی نیا پاکستان اسلام کی بنیاد پر ہی کھڑا ہو گا اور نہ ہی شوشا پر۔ دوسرا یہ کہ عمران خان کوئی نعوز بااللہ امام مہدی نہیں ہیں کہ ان کے شوشے میں ساتھ دینا ہمارا فرض ہو-
شکریہ

Doing Charity With Money From Concerts
DOING CHARITY WITH MONEY FROM CONCERTS
My friends, I have a question for you. Do you have an answer? You love Islam, right? Is money from music concerts permissible in Islam or 'halaal'? If it is not, then charity or any good cause from such money acceptable in Islam? Please try to give an honest reply. Thank you.

Achieving Spirituality
Achieving Spirituality
We need to focus more on how to achieve spirituality. And by spirituality it is meant 'Islamic spirituality' unlike the false glitter of "modern-day Sufism". When we give up some 'colours' of glamour for the sake of ALLAH and strive a little harder, only then we can achieve some level of spirituality.
