MESSAGE |
Why
a mother is so valuable in Ramadhaan
--------------------------------------------
Ramadhaan is the most important month of the Islamic
year. It is in this month that the family worships Allah
and practices Islam more fervently and with greater enthusiasm.
The Muslim family spend precious moments of their time together
during Iftaar and Suhoor. These two meals provide the fuel
and blessing that grant a Muslim the physical and spiritual
strength to fast.
The
food Muslims consume plays a critical role in their worship.
Allah mentions in the Quran: "Eat what is wholesome
and do good deeds." In other words, wholesome and halaal
food promotes good character and actions. The responsibility
of ensuring that wholesome meals are provided for the family
rests on the father and mother. The father earns pure
and halaal sustenance. The mother ensures that the food
that is consumed
is wholesome and halaal.
A
few ideas on how a mother can create an Islamic home in Ramadhaan:
Encourage children to recite Quran regularly every day even
if it be a little.
This will discipline them and make them love the Quran.
Encourage
them to fast even for an hour or half a day. This will build
their confidence.
Let
them perform Salaah together with the mother while she prays.
Teach
them one new thing about Ramadhaan every day, eg. a dua, hadith,
benefit of fasting and taraweeh, etc.
Teach
them to avoid unhealthy food. Ramadhaan is, after all, a month
of diet control!
Assign
one of the kids the responsibility for waking everyone up
for Suhoor and Fajr (Set your alarm clock, just in case!)
This will teach them the importance of Suhoor and Fajr.
In
Ramadhaan, specifically, there must be a constant reminder
of an Islamic home! Children learn from a mother's personal
example. A mother who is always there by supervising and disciplining
her children and who keeps busy with Salah, Qur'aan and Dua
provides the most favourable Islamic atmosphere for piety
and happiness in the home. A mother provides
a special warmth and tenderness to the family during Ramadhaan.
Ramadhaan
without a mother can never be a true Ramadhaan. Ask anybody
who has lost a mother within the last year how sad and empty
that home now is. A dua for our mothers and sisters.
May Allah grant our mothers the understanding of their critical
role in every
Muslim home. They are the spiritual pillars upon which the
bricks of
worship and obedience stand. If they fall or crumble the future
of the
Ummah is at stake. May Allah make our Muslim women true beacons
of piety
and strength. Ameen! |

SAW said: "Whoever would say as he enters the morning and
as he enters the evening: Subhãna 'allãhi wa bihamdihi
100 times, no one would arrive on the Day of Resurrection with
better than what he arrived with, except for a person who said
the same, or more.” |

Matriculants
who fail this year will be given a second chance. The decision
was welcomed by The Congress of South African Students (Cosas)
in Limpopo. Earlier this week, the national education department
said learners would be able to rewrite their exams in June
next year.
The
Public Protector says he is shocked and surprised at the situation
at Baragwanath hospital in Soweto, Johannesburg. The reaction
comes after media reports that the hospital's maternity ward
has been keeping newborn babies in cardboard boxes.
US
private Security Company, Blackwater, is defending their murder
of 11 Iraqi civilians. Founder of the company, Erik Prince
told the House of Representatives Committee that he believes
his staff acted appropriately.
More
arrests have been made in Myanmar. Myanmar's military government
has reportedly arrested more people after the UN special envoy
left the country.
Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe is likely to attend the
EU summit in Portugal in December this year. British Prime
Minister Gordon Brown lost his campaign to prevent President
Robert Mugabe from attending despite Mugabe’s travel
ban. |

| POEM |
His eyes slept very little,
For nights were precious,
His prayers he treasured much greater.
To wake and pray in the depths of night,
Seeking forgiveness, and being nearness his Creator.
He
broke his tooth for me at Uhud,
And bled for me at Ta'if.
He cried for me, tears of concern,
Just so I could have this belief.
His
enemies admired his teachings,
Uniting every religion, every clan.
Till ISLAM came to every corner of the world,
Yet, indeed, he was only one man.
To own a house, or build his wealth
Was
not his main priority.
To establish ISLAM was more essential,
To bring us under a Higher Authority.
Don't you want him to plea for your case?
When
before ALLAH, The Judge, you stand?
Don't you wish to be around his fountain?
Burning desire to drink from his hand?
So love him more than all creation,
Our Leader, OUR Humble Prophet.
Muhammad
is a mercy to all of humankind, And to me, he is MY BELOVED! |

| A
THOUGHT |
Been
deceived?
People aren’t perfect: we will make mistakes. Satan
deceives us by making us think that minor sins aren’t
important. So we might think, “What’s the big
deal if I tell a ‘white lie’?” The fact
is, lies are lies and sins are sins, and as the Prophet said,
even minor sins, “if a person is called to account for
them, will destroy him.” [Ahmad]
So how do we repent for what we do wrong, whether minor or
major?
Recognize what’s wrong and stop doing it right away.
Hate the action and regret that we ever did it.
Be determined never to do the action again.
If someone’s rights were violated by the action we should
seek their forgiveness and set things right.
While we may end up falling into the same trap again, we can
always repent and get back on the straight path. Only those
people who give up and continue to follow Satan are deceived
and truly losers. |

SMILE |
On
a slow day with few customers, a clerk at a telegram office
looks down from her counter and sees a dog waiting in line.
"Oh, aren't you cute?" she says. "What would
you like me to put on your telegram?"
"Bow wow wow, Bow wow wow," the dog replies. The
clerk says in a cutesy voice, "But you can add another
'Bow wow wow' for the same price."
The dog responds, "Now wouldn't that sound a little silly?" |
