HADITH/SAYINGS OF MUHAMMAD
(SALLALLAHU ALAYHI WA SALLAM)
 

Ayesha Radiyallahu Anha narrates: "Once Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam was reclining in his house whilst his thigh or shin was exposed (thigh being exposed would mean that His kurta or shawl was lifted however his lower garment still covered His thigh). Abu Bakr Radiyallahu Anhu then came to the door and sought permission to enter. Permission was granted and Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam remained in this position whilst they engaged in conversation.

Umar Radiyallahu Anhu then came to the door and the very same thing happened. Uthmaan Radiyallahu Anhu then came afterwards. However when He entered the house, Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam sat up and straightened his clothes. When they left, Ayesha Radiyallahu Anha said: Abu Bakr Radiyallahu Anhu entered and you did not move nor did you mind, then Umar Radiyallahu Anhu entered and you did not move nor did you mind, however when Uthmaan Radiyallahu Anhu entered You sat up and straightened your clothes." (this remark was posed as a question).

Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam said: "Should I not portray modesty to that man from who even the angels portray modesty."

It is mentioned in another narration that Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam said: "Verily Uthmaan Radiyallahu Anhu is a man of modesty and I feared that if I grant him permission to enter (the house) whilst I was in that (relaxed) position He would not consult me (in future) when consultation is required." (due to extreme levels of modesty). (Mishkaat pg 560)

Although every Sahaabi possessed the quality of modesty this Hadeeth indicates to the high level of modesty possessed by Uthmaan Radiyallahu Anhu. For this reason He is also knowm as "Kaamilul Imaani Wal Hayaa" (possessor of complete Imaan and modesty).

When Umar Radiyallahu Anhu entered the house, Ayesha Radiyallahu Anha placed herself behind a curtain (purda) for the duration of the incident. There was no need for this in the presence or Abu Bakr Radiyallahu Anhu because She was His daughter.

 
POEM
 
MY SON, BRIGHTER THAN THE SUN

Words cannot explain the happiness of my heart
On the day when I was first told "it's a boy"

I remember your face full of joy
When I brought home your first toy

Radiant like a globe your face was a piece of art
Indeed that happiness brought happiness to my heart

The day you cried for the toy you could not have
That night I cried for the child I could not delight

When you were sick I was sick
When your eyes were crying my heart was crying

The day you first walked
In tears was I caught

The day you first spoke
I boasted so much
Onlookers thought
I was a walking joke

The day you took an interest in Deen
The joy in my heart could be understood by no human being

Bringing you up wasn't a little game
Till today my heart breaks whenever you in pain

Days are gone when you could not reach the top shelf
Today you all grown up and got to think for yourself

Yesterday you were a baby
Tomorrow you will have a baby
And I hope for your sake
A pious beautiful lady

If you don't act now to please your creator
You will see the bad effects now and later

When you were small I kept a cane
I hope in your house you will do the same
I hope from these words in life you will gain
Because every wrong you do I will be to blame
O son! You are under my name
On the Day of reckoning don't put me to shame.

"'n Afrikaanse Moslem Webtuiste en 'n Blog gerig op die Afrikaanssprekende Christen deur S'aad Bekker:

"Ons voel mos nie almal altyd dieselfde nie, is dit nie? Partymaal voel jy goed en ek dalk bietjie af, soos Allah wil. Kliek hier vir die nuutste Dagstukkie om jou aan te moedig. Ons het ook al die Dagstukkies wat ons nou al uitgestuur het saam op een bladsy gesit, juis vir jou gerief. As ek dus 'n Dagstukkie uitstuur en jy voel dis nou nie vandag vir jou bedoel nie, dan kan jy sommer maklik vir jouself al die Dagstukkie-opskrifte gaan deurkyk totdat jy een vind wat jou hart aanraak. Of as iets gebeur wat jou so bietjie van balans af gooi: besoek die Dagstukkies! Jy weet nooit, dalk wil Allah jou juis deur 'n besondere Dagstukkie bemoedig.

E-pos ons by sjbekker@vodamail.co.za as jy die Dagstukkies op jou rekenaar wil ontvang..."

 
THE SMILE
 

A young boy and his dad went out fishing one fine morning. After a few quiet hours out in the boat, the boy became curious about the world around him. He looked up at his dad and asked "How do fish breath under water?"

His dad thought about it for a moment, then replied, "I really don't know, son."

The boy sat quietly from another moment, then turned back to his dad and asked, "How does our boat float on the water?"

Once again his dad replied, "Don't know, son."

Pondering his thoughts again, a short while later, the boy asks "Why is the sky blue?"

Again, his dad replied. "Don't know, son."

The inquisitive boy, worried he was annoying his father, asks this time "Dad, do you mind that I'm asking you all of these questions?"

"Of course not son." replied his dad, "How else are you ever going to learn anything?"
