  • Hadith prophecy about a future western world order 

    Amr ibn Al-As reported: The Quraish importer said to him that he heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say, “The Hour will be established and the Romans will be a majority of the people.” Amr said, “Be careful what you say.” The man said, “I have said what I heard from the Messenger of Allah.” Amr said, “If the Prophet said that, indeed, there are four qualities in them: they are the most judicious of people during a tribulation, they are the quickest to recover after a calamity, they are the quickest to return to battle after a retreat, and they behave well with the poor and weak. Their fifth quality is good and beautiful: they are best at preventing the oppression of their kings.”
    Ibn Kathir interprets it to mean that Romans will convert to Islam. الحافظ ابن كثير رحمه الله: هذا يدل على أن الروم يسلمون في آخر الزمان،
    But Munawi interprets it to mean that Romans will become atheists. وقال عبد الرءوف المناوي: (تقوم الساعة) أي القيامة. (والروم أكثر الناس) ومن عداهم بالنسبة إليهم قليل، وثبت في الصحيح: ) أنه لا يبقى مسلم وقت قيام الساعة ( لكن يكون الروم وهم قوم معروفون وهم أكثر الكفرة ذلك الوقت.
    Qurtubi a Spanish Muslim scholar says that Amr found those qualities in his contemporary Romans but they were absent in Romans of his time.
  • Adele is a voice of sanity in the ocean of western sexual madness 

    Since Muslims are not immune to western music due to globalization and cultural imperialism, I find Adele a voice of sanity in an ocean of sexual madness. May God bless her and guide her to the Truth sent by One God. Adele said:“I have never seen magazine covers and music videos and thought: ‘I need to look like that to be a success.’ To sell more records, I don’t even need to do that. I just stand there and sing. No matter what you look like, the key is to be happy with yourself.”
    Joanne Zaahidah Sijka-Shaikh The Prophet s.a.w. had made mention of the good qualities of the people of Rum and in the last days they will come to the faith in large numbers, like we see today. this is why tolerance and mercy should always be shown to everyone.
  • The virtue of sending blessings on the Messenger of Allah(s) on Fridays

    عن محمد بن الفضيل عن أبي الحسن الرضا عليه السلام قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله من صلى علي يوم الجمعة مائة صلاة قضى الله له ستين حاجة ثلاثون للدنيا وثلاثون للآخرة. Imam Ali Arridha(r) said that the Messenger of Allah(s) said: Who sends blessings upon me a hundred times on Friday Allah will fulfill his sixty needs, thirty in this world and thirty in the Hereafter.
  • Finding the name of one of the greatest bridges between science and religion in history along with cats

    Divine peace or shalom in hebrew be upon those who seek and acknowledge truth. One of the asteroids 8318 Averroes is named after a Spanish Muslim thinker who is one of the greatest bridges between religion and science in human history. I think it is insulting and an injustice to find his name along with cats.
  • Question about those who do not marry revert sisters 

    Assalam Waleykum I had a fiancé from Pakistan. He couldn’t marry because his family wish that he marry in family. He is going to marry other girl now. Is he right? He hurted me a lot!
    Wa alaykum assalam, the validity of nikah(marriage) does not require the consent of wali(guardian) of male, but some fuqaha(legal scholars) consider consent of wali of females a condition in marriage. I follow Imam Abu Hanifa(r) who says that a woman can marry without consent of parents if the man is compatible and equivalent(kufuw) to him. If you have more taqwa(fear of Allah and abstaining from sins) which converts have more than Pakistani girls, then he has made a wrong decision. And, if your fiance was not a caller to Islam, nominally religious Pakistani guys cannot handle diversity.
  • Good news and warning of Prophetic descendant Imam Zayn AlAbidin(r) about Noble Sadat Prophetic descendants

    (التفت الإمام الرضا لزيد يوما وهو يفتخر على غيره قائلا له ؛ يا زيد أغرك قول ناقلي الكوفة إن فاطمة أحصنت فرجها فحرم الله ذريتها على النار ،فلا والله إلا للحسن والحسين وولد بطنها خاصة ، أما أن يكون موسى بن جعفر يطيع الله ويصوم نهاره ، ويقيم ليله وتعصيه أنت، ثم تجيئان يوم القيامة سواء لا أنت أعز على الله وجل منه ؟ إن عليا بن الحسين كان يقول: لمحسننا كفلان من الأجر ولمسيئنا ضعفان من العذاب )كذا جاء في (بحار الأنوار64/65). Imam Ali Arridha(r) said to his brother Zayd Annar bin Imam Musa Alkadhim(r) who burnt the gardens of Banu Abbas after conquering Basra and he was taking pride in his descent(nasab). He said: O Zayd! You have been deceived by the words of a speaker of Kufah that since Fatimah(as) guarded her chastity, so Allah has forbidden her children on Fire. By Allah! That is for Imam Hasan(r) and Imam Husain(r) in particular and the children of her womb. How is it possible that Imam Musa Alkadhim(r) obeys Allah and fasts during his days and stands in worship during his nights and you disobey Allah, and when both of you are brought on day of rising of dead, would both of you be equal. No, are you nobler in the sight of Allah than Imam Musa Alkadhim(r). Imam Zayn AlAbidin(r) used to say: For those among us Ahlulbayt who are righteous have twice ajr(reward) and for those among us Ahlulbayt who are wrongdoers will have twice punishment.

  • Mona Iraqi: To a brave Egyptian sister and investigative journalist who exposes sodomite brothel 

    Assalamu alaykum, I am a Pakistani electrical engineer and a technology educator. I debate western atheists to invite them to Islam and they want to promote sodomy in our traditional cultures, so I call them cultural Zionists. God says in Quran that fitna is more dangerous than murder because murder leads to Paradise and fitna or seduction leads to Fire. I admire your shuja’ah(bravery) like Khansa may Allah be pleased with her. May Allah unite us as a brotherhood in Paradise.
  • May Allah grant all husbands such true love of sleeplessness .

    What Hazrat Ali(r) said on the occasion of the burial of Supreme lady Sayyidah Fatimah (r) while addressing the Holy Prophet at his grave.
    O’ Prophet of Allah, peace be upon you from me and from your daughter who has come to you and who has hastened to meet you. O’ Prophet of Allah, my patience about your chosen (daughter) has been exhausted, and my power of endurance has weakened.Verily we are Allah’s and verily unto Him shall we return. (Qur’an 2:156) Now, the trust has been returned and what had been given has been taken back. As to my grief, it knows no bounds, and as to my nights. they will remain sleepless till Allah chooses for me the house in which you are now residing.
  • Witnessing divine Beauty in the Hereafter

    Ishmael Abraham And if i may ask , what the Islamic scripts say about Muhammad , did he saw God or has he ever been in the presence of God?
    Yes, he went to God near His Throne called Miraj and saw him with the vision of his heart. No other Prophet had the privilege to have seeing God with his heart before. We also try to visit God five times a day as Salah is called Miraj of a believer where we should try to worship Him as if we are looking at Him. Witnessing divine beauty will be the greatest delight after we enter Paradise In Sha Allah.
  • How an authentic unitarian paradigm can break ground in Cult Studies to offer tools of religious de-radicalization

    To Natacha Tormey a victim of western sex cult: Sociologists classify David Berg as having charismatic authority, but western Scripture apparently lacks intellectual tools to challenge such authority due to history of saint-worship and deification of Christ peace be upon him . For example, a old woman challenged the charismatic authority of the second caliph of Islam on the issue of austerity in dowry, and he acknowledged that she knew Quran more than him. Even in the most revered personality of the divine Ishmaelite Messenger(p), Scripture emphasizes that he is not divine and can sometimes forget or in fact Scripture mentions that the Messenger(p) should have given more attention to truth seeking under-privileged than truth-indifferent elites.
    Sister Natacha is accurate when she says that one is more at risk when one feels one is safe which echoes Quran that fitna or temptation which attracts you into doing something unethical is more harmful than physical harm. Cults or heresies are called fitna in Islamic heresiology
