THE MESSAGE
THE SIGHT of the KABAH
------------------------
One never tires of gazing at the sight of the House of Allah, the Kaa'ba. The site upon which the mercy and blessings of Allah are constantly descending. There is truly nothing comparable to the House of Allah on this Earth. People wish time would stand still so they could keep gazing at the Kaa'ba; their thirst is never quenched, rather it increases.

Once, while on a visit to Washington, people told me that a woman had accepted Islam and had some questions for me. They told me that many non-practicing Muslim women had started practicing again due to her. At prayer time she would dress in her best clothes as if readying herself for someone special, and would become oblivious to everything around her as soon she started praying.

After a brief question and answer session, I asked her what prompted her to accept Islam. She sighed and started explaining; "I was a Jew and my husband was a Christian who was posted in Saudi Arabia for some technical work. Everyday I used to see Muslim men and women dressed in white on their way somewhere. I asked my husband where they were going and he told me that they go to perform pilgrimage at the Muslim shrine of Kaa'ba. I expressed a desire to go but he told me that non-Muslims were not allowed. However, I was determined and so we both bought white clothes and set out. Fortunately no one stopped us and we reached Makkah, from where we found directions to the Kaa'ba. Upon seeing the Kaa'ba our eyes froze and time seemed to stand still. When we turned to look at each other after some time, we were both crying. With our eyes we told each other that this was the Truth and we should accept Islam. No one ever told me about Islam, but there were so many blessings descending on that House that they changed my life forever."

The blessings of Tawhid descend in Makkah, and the blessings of Prophethood descend in Madinah. One has seen nothing in life if he has not seen these two holy sites. May Allah give all Muslims the opportunity to visit His House.

A THOUGHT

CELLPHONE VS QURAN
--------------------
EVER WONDERED WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF WE TREATED OUR QURAN LIKE WE TREAT OUR CELLPHONE?

WHAT IF WE CARRIED THE QURAN AROUND IN OUR PURSES OR POCKETS?
WHAT IF WE FLIPPED THROUGH IT SEVERAL TIMES A DAY?
WHAT IF WE TURNED BACK TO GO GET IT IF WE FORGOT IT?
WHAT IF WE USED IT TO RECEIVE MESSAGES FROM THE TEXT?
WHAT IF WE TREATED IT LIKE WE COULD'NT LIVE WITHOUT IT?
WHAT IF WE GAVE IT TO KIDS AS GIFTS?
WHAT IF WE USED IT WHEN WE TRAVELLED?
WHAT IF WE USED IT IN CASE OF EMERGENCY?

THAT IS SOMETHING TO MAKE YOU GO...HMMM... WHERE IS MY QURAN?

O! AND one THING MORE... UNLIKE OUR CELLPHONE WE DO NoT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT OUR QURAN BEING DISCONNECTED, AND NO DROPPED CALLS. MAKES YOU STOP AND THINK WHERE ARE MY PRIORITIES?

P.S. DO WHAT YOU THINK ALLAH WOULD WANT YOU TO DO WITH THESE QUESTIONS???
TRUST ALLAH AND FIND YOUR ANSWERS IN HIS WORDS.

 
THE SMILE
NEVER out of STOCK
-------------------
When I overheard one of my cashiers tell a customer, "We haven't had it for a while, and I doubt we'll be getting it soon," I quickly assured the customer that we would have whatever it was she wanted by next week.

After she left, I read the cashier the riot act.

¡¡"Never tell the customer that we're out of anything. Tell them we'll have it next week," I instructed her. "Now, what did she want?"

¡¡¡"Rain."
