"Malaysian Muslim" a New Term

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Introduction

I once live in Malaysia, and fortunately in an Islamic atmosphere. Six long unforgettable years I should say, as brotherhood was very strong. Four years ago, Malaysia was Malaysia that I love, Malaysia that I don't know where it has gone. How fast this very world turns...

"Makes us look like we are a bit of a backward country. But we are actually not,"

-Alia Zulkifli, a 27-year-old banker.

"We came for the music."

-More from Alia, reffering to the Black Eyed Peas Concert.

I don't know to whom I should say this, perhaps to Alia Zulkifli for her wrong statement. This message suppose to get into her heart to feel, and to her head to think. Not only Alia, I believe every person who have the same thought of, "Makes us look like we are a bit of a backward country."

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

What on earth made you think your country look like a bit backward? For heaven's sake, pray. Is there any possibilities; that your government do this to make itself a bit backward? Think dear people, think! This sort of statements, my dear Alia, is absolutely unbearable. It is the teaching of Islam, that command you to stay away from the place of disbelievers, much more from their party, and even much more from their concerts.

The night where male and female gather and dancing together doesn't make you a bit forward, don't you realize. The night where people get drunk doesn't make a nation a bit forward, in the matter of fact, it make you a bit backward, or perhaps, a lot backward I should say. It is the night, when teenagers stay awake to learn, that makes a nation a bit forward. A country like Saudi Arabia, can you see that Saudi Arabia is a bit backward? Yes in the eyes of the disbelievers. Can't you see the great Mecca and the enlightened Medina?

If you left one thing for the sake of Allah, believe, Allah will reward you a better one. Paradise are waiting for queens. Queens who serve their life in kindness to others, queens who was clean from badness, queens who are proud of their honorable life. I pray for Malaysia, and all country, to be always guided. Amin.

May peace and blessing always be Upon the Last Prophet and his Companions and Family.

Why I believe God Exist?

IN THE NAME OF ALLAH

One day, when I was bored in youtube, someone comment on my page saying: There is no God. Start from there, then look around you at what people do in the name of this non existent god. I always think before deciding anything, sometimes its wrong and sometimes its right. So I think about what he says. His first word; There is no God. I've think and I've get a conclusion:

The presence of footsteps, is the evidence that there was a people there...



The presence of water, is the evidence that living organisms is possible to live there...



The presence of world, its energy, the sun and whole the universe, is the evidence that God Exist...



I've try to prove that God does not exist, believe me, but I found nothing to prove it.



Even Newton's law of motion says, "A matter will remain in its state unless external force acts upon it." So who will acts a force upon this whole universe? There must exist an Absolute Power, or we will never existed.

So, his first statement is wrong, automatically his later statements will be wrong.

May peace always be upon our Prophet: Muhammad Peace and Blessing be Upon Him.

The Blessed Yemen

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم



Allah Most High has blessed and honoured the lands of Yemen and given this country a unique status that no other place (besides the two sacred cities of Makkah and Madina) enjoys. There are many virtues mentioned in the various narrations (ahadith) regarding Yemen and the people residing there. This land has also been the abode of many Prophets (peace be upon them all), Companions (sahaba), scholars and pious servants of Allah (Allah be pleased with them all). Of the many narrations wherein the virtues of Yemen and its inhabitants have been mentioned, some are reproduced below:

1) Imam al-Bukhari relates from Abu Mas’ud that the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) gestured with his hands towards Yemen and said: “Belief (iman) is there….” (Sahih al-Bukhari, no: 4126 & Sahih Muslim, no: 81)

2) Sayyiduna Abu Hurayra (Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) said: “The people of Yemen have come to you and they are extremely gentle and soft-hearted. Belief (iman) is that of the Yemenis and wisdom (hikma) is that of the Yemenis. Pride and haughtiness are the characters of the owners of camels, and calmness and solemnity are the qualities of the owners of sheep.” (Sahih al-Bukhari, no: 4127)

3) Sayyiduna Abu Hurayra (Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) said: “The people of Yemen have come to you. They are tender-hearted and more delicate of soul. The capacity to understand (fiqh) is of the Yemenis and wisdom is that of the Yemenis.” (Sahih al-Bukhari, no: 4129 & Sahih Muslim, no: 84)

Imam an-Nawawi (Allah have mercy on him) mentions in his commentary of Sahih Muslim that there is no bar in attributing these narrations literally to the people of Yemen. They (the people of Yemen) had strong faith in the time of the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace), and the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) sensed this from the people of Yemen such as; Abu Muslim al-Khawlani, Uways al-Qarni and the delegations that came to him from Yemen. Hence, attributing faith (iman) to Yemen meant that the people of Yemen had strong and complete faith, but this did not negate that others also had strong faith.

As far as Fiqh and Hikma are concerned, the former (fiqh) means to have a deep understanding of religion, whilst the latter (hikma) refers to having conscious acknowledgment of Allah Most High (ma’rifa), coupled with self-reformation, good character and abstaining from following one’s desires and falsehood.

The meaning of “they are extremely gentle and soft-hearted” is that they are the people of timidity (khashya) and have an attitude of humble acceptance (istikana). They are extremely quick in accepting genuine advice and Nasiha, and are easily affected by it. They are immune from harshness, hard-heartedness and ruggedness. (See: Nawawi, al-Minhaj Sharh Sahih Muslim, P: 158-159)

The above few narrations related from the beloved of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) single out Yemen and its inhabitants with great qualities. Strong faith, complete belief and true conviction is said to exist in Yemen, with the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) gesturing and pointing his hands in the direction of Yemen and saying “Iman is there”. Similarly, the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) cites wisdom and deep understanding of religion to exist in Yemen. Moreover, when a delegation comes to the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace), he mentions the qualities and characteristics of the people of Yemen saying that they are extremely soft-hearted people and very humble.

The few narrations above have been taken directly from the two most authentic books of Hadith, namely Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim. However, these narrations are not the only ones recorded in the praise of Yemen and its inhabitants; rather, there are many other Ahadith. Let us look at some more narrations in this regard:

5) Sayyiduna Zayd ibn Thabit (Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) looked towards Yemen and said: “O Allah! Turn their hearts (towards Iman)…” (Sunan Tirmidhi, no: 3934)

6) Sayyiduna Abu Hurayra (Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) said: “…..And trustworthiness (amana) is in (the tribe of) Azd, meaning in Yemen.” (Sunan Tirmidhi, no: 3936)

7) Sayyiduna Jubayr ibn Mut’im (Allah be pleased with him) narrates that once the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) looked up towards the heavens and said: “The people of Yemen have come to you like the pieces of clouds. They are the best of people on the face of the earth.” A Companion asked: “O Messenger of Allah! Are they even better than us?” The Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) replied: “Except you.” (Musnad of Imam Ahamd, Musnad Bazzar and Musnad Abu Ya’la. See: Majma’ al-Zawa’id, 10/54)

8) Sayyiduna Amr ibn Abasa (Allah be pleased with him) relates that Uyayna ibn Hisn al-Fazari once remarked in the presence of the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) that the best of men are ….the people of Najd. The Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) replied: “You have lied! Rather, the best of men are the people of Yemen. Belief/faith (iman) is Yemeni and I am also a Yemeni.” (Tabrani and Ahmad, with all the narrators in the chain authentic (thiqat). See: Majma’ al-Zawa’id, 10/44)

In this last Hadith, it was mentioned in the presence of the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) that the people of Najd were the best of people, but the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) was quick to reject this notion saying that this was wrong; rather, the people of Yemen were the best amongst people. This Hadith reminds us of another narration recorded by Imam al-Bukhari and others wherein the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) said: “O Allah! Give us Baraka in our Sham, O Allah! Give us Baraka in our Yemen.” They said: “And in our Najd?” and he said: “O Allah! Give us Baraka in our Sham, O Allah! Give us Baraka in our Yemen.” They said: “And in our Najd?” and I believe that he said on the third occasion: “In that place (najd) are earthquakes and seditions, and in that place shall rise the devil’s horn.” (See: Sahih al-Bukhari, no: 990)

In the final part of the last Hadith, the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) referred himself as a Yemeni. The reason could be (And Allah knows best) that “ Yemen” was in fact the name of Qahtan’s son, and Qahtan was a forefather of the Arabs and was from the children of Sayyiduna Isma’il (peace be upon him). Hence, the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) had a relationship of ancestry with the Yemenis. It could also mean that the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) was implying that he liked the character and manners of the Yemenis; hence he referred himself to be “as” a Yemeni for having something in common with them. Whatever the reason may be, the fact that the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) called himself a Yemeni is such a virtue for the people of Yemen that it cannot be underestimated.

9) In another narration, the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) is reported to have said: “Faith is of the Yemenis, and they (the people of Yemen) are from me and their direction is towards me, even if they are far from me in distance. It will be very soon that they come to you as helpers (ansar); hence I command you to be good with them.” (Tabrani with a sound [Hasan] chain. See: Majma’ al-Zawa’id, 10/55)

There are also other Ahadith in which the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) praised the tribes of Yemen such as the tribes of Himyar and Azd. He said that a time will come when a man will wish that his father and mother were from the tribe of Azd. (See: Sunan Tirmidhi, no: 3937). He (Allah bless him & give him peace) also said that the people of Himyar are the people of trustworthiness and faith. (See: Sunan Tirmidhi, no: 3939). Thus, the Ahadith and narrations praising the lands of Yemen and its people are numerous to the extent that if one was to gather all of them with commentary, an entire book may be compiled!

Any Muslim who has knowledge of these sayings of the beloved of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) would naturally long to visit Yemen and its people. Indeed, the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) made these remarks according to his time, but when Allah Most High places certain qualities in a people, the effect of these qualities remain even after centuries have elapsed. Moreover, Yemen was also the abode of many of the Messenger of Allah’s Companions. He (Allah bless him & give him peace) sent Sayyiduna Mu’az ibn Jabal (Allah be please with him) to Yemen. There are also other Companions who lived and taught in Yemen. All of this in addition to the fact that Yemen has produced, and continues to produce, some of the greatest scholars, Mujtahids, Imams and saints of this Ummah.

Evidence: Muhammad is a Prophet

Question:



Prove that Muhammad is a true Prophet. What powers did God gave him? Please e-mail it as soon as possible.



Fatwa:



All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.



The signs that prove the prophecy of Muhammad sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) are numerous. Many books have been written to enumerate them and thoroughly discuss them. We would like to mention some of these signs as reported by Muslim scholars and which prove that Muhammad was a real Prophet including:



· First, his good biography and high morals as well as the noble qualities that distinguished him. He was known before becoming a Prophet as a truthful and honest person, although the community where he lived was a society of ignorance. This was, perhaps, the most important sign of his prophecy. He was not known to have ever lied on people. So, why should he lie on behalf of the Lord by claiming that he was a Prophet, if he was not a real Prophet?

· Second, the powers and triumphs Allaah gave him and the spread of the religion he preached, as well as the triumph of this religion over all existing religions in a short period of time. Had he been a liar, Allaah would have humiliated and destroyed him as He did with those before him who falsely claimed Prophethood.

· Third, the miracles Allaah gave him as supporting evidence were beyond the ability of human beings and were beyond range of natural phenomena. The moon split for him, water gushed from his fingers, food became more abundant in his hands, and similar phenomena were authentically reported and happened in a way that could not be denied.

· Fourth, the Prophet was backed by the greatest miracle which is the Qur'aan. In fact, Qur'aan was a challenge and remains a challenge for Arabs who were known to be good poets and eloquent speakers- Allaah challenged them to write a single Surah (chapter) that would be similar to that of Qur'aan, but the Arabs were unable to do so. Indeed, the challenge still endures - none of the Arabs throughout history- since the revelation of the Qur'aan- was able to make anything that was even similar to it. No doubt that the Qur'aan has been preserved intact until it came to us. Groups of people memorized it including children, adults, males and females. So generations brought the Qur'aan to generations until it reached us as it was revealed 14 centuries ago. Hence, the Qur'aan remains intact protected from distortion or alteration. Nothing has been added to it, nor taken from it. Qur'aan is full of scientific facts that were verified only in these times of scientific investigation. No doubt that Muhammad who was illiterate would not have possessed this knowledge 14 centuries ago. Doesn't this prove the authenticity of the Qur'aan and that it is the Word of the Creator of the Universe who knows all its secrets?



· Fifth, the things from the unseen that he (the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) ) informed us about. Some of them occurred during his life time. Others happened later. Some of these things happened to the Prophets who preceded him and some are still to occur. He also informed about the signs of The Day of Judgment, some of which had already been seen such as widespread killings and genocide, adultery and fornication and the consumption of the alcohol, outnumbering of males by females and the increased number of earthquakes, and afflictions,… etc.



· Sixth, the testimony of some of the people of the Book that he was a true Prophet. Some of them believed in him like 'Abdullaah Ibn Salaam who was a Jew as well as Negus (king of Abyssinia) who was a Christian. Some of the people of the Book certified that he was a Prophet of Allaah but refused to follow him like Huyayy Ibn Akhtaab.



The above are some of the signs that prove his Prophethood and the authenticity of his revelations. We would like the questioner to visit some of the Islaamic centers in her area, and hopefully, they will guide her to some useful references in the matter.

Allaah knows best.

Jesus in Islam

In The Name of Allah

I should Warn you that this video is a long video. It is a nice video to think about.



I think the major subject in this video, as we all know, is no longer about existence of God. Like it or not, science have to accept the existence of God. In this day, the question is: WHO IS THE GOD?

For approximately 1400 years, Moslems and Christians have been in debate. The main character in all that debate is one man, A Prophet of Moslems, and A God of Christians, Jesus.

I want to discuss about one of the most fundamental things in Christianity; Is Jesus Really Crucified?

There is two possibilities:

1) He did not Crucified.
2) He is Crucified.

I will leave you to think about this two possibilities. I've made crucifixion of Jesus easier to think about. I will explain this, believe me, I've known the answer which will converts every single Christian to Islam. Insya-Allah...

May peace always be Upon Our last prophet, Muhammad, his family, friends, and he who follow his path...

Prove: The Holy Koran is The most Accurate Reference In The Universe

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Dedicated to all disbeliever.

About this article: It has been a while since last time I write in this blog. Now I'm going to write an article about proof of greatness of Holy Koran. Someone said to me when I'm teaching about Islam in an on-line discussion: "What about the Dogon tribe in Africa? They know about the star Sirius, and charted its movements before it was even discovered by Modern technology with a telescope. Robert Templer wrote a book on it. The Dogon tribe has had this information for centuries. This has shocked the science world."

This guy said it when I'm talking about The Holy Koran. he said again, "No, The Koran does not know anything not already known.". I've explain this Fitna to him. And now, I'm going to explain this again.
----------

Before we discuss about Sirius Star, We have to know that Sirius is the brightest star in the night sky with a visual apparent magnitude of −1.46, almost twice as bright as Canopus, the next brightest star, that is the ‘definition’ of Sirius Star.

Unfortunately, Sirius Star is not too small to see with bare eye, ours or Dogon Tribe in Africa can see this star. Why, because it is ‘The Brightest Star’ in the night sky. You can check Wikipedia.com. And Dogon tribe is not the first who discovered this star. Ancient Egypt is also familiar with this star.

Why ancient Egypt familiar with this star? Because the Sirius Star is easy to see. Anyone can see this star, including Dogon tribe. So it’s not shocking phenomenon. And about Robert Templer, this is what Prophet Mohammad P.B.U.H once said: “Every sons of Adam has sins, and the best sinner is the one who apologize.” This is right, and approved scientifically, and it’s not as bright as Sirius Star for anyone to understand His word, but this word can only be understood by he who wants to think deeply. What I’m trying to say is that Robert Templer is also son of Adam, and he—I can guarantee—that he makes mistakes, so do I, and so do you. One of the biggest mistake is when scientist don’t connect something that he is observing with history, because when scientist do so, they will found that it starts from belief, and they won’t believe it, because they said religion or belief is not scientific. Well other religion is not scientific, while Islam, origin of all religion and the most scientific religion, is scientific—I can guarantee that.

Islam pays much attention in science. In the Holy Koran, Allah Ta’aala said: “Say, (O Mohammed, Peace be Upon Thee) is he who knows equal with he who know not?” That’s why Moslems pay much attention for science. One of the greatest founding by Moslems is that Moslem scientist converted the Theoretical science of Greeks’ scientist to Practical Science which is next used by western scientist. What’s their main purpose, it’s simple, to understand and prove the existence of God. And now, when the practical science used by western they used it to deny the existence of God.
----------
So if you ever meet an atheist, don't be shy to say "I'm a Moslem". And don't ever forget and afraid to say to them: F*ck You!!!

----------
May Peace always be upon the last Prophet, Mohammad, his Family and everyone who follow his path.
