DEMISE OF NABI SALLALLAHU ALAIHIU WA SALLAM
At the time of Nabi Sallallahu alaihi Wa Sallam's demise, Abu Bakr Radiyallahu Anhu came out while 'Umar Radiyallahu Anhu was addressing the people.
Abu Bakr Radiyallahu Anhu told him to sit down but 'Umar Radiyallahu Anhu refused. Abu Bakr Radiyallahu Anhu again told him to sit down but 'Umar Radiyallahu Anhu again refused. Abu Bakr Radiyallahu Anhu then recited the Tashah-hud (i.e. none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and Muhammad is Allah's Apostle), the people attended to Abu Bakr Radiyallahu Anhu and left 'Umar Radiyallahu Anhu. Abu Bakr Radiyallahu Anhu said, "Amma ba'du (Praises be to Allah and salutations be upon His messenger), whoever amongst you worshipped Muhammad, then Muhammad has passed away, but whoever worshipped Allah, Allah is alive and will never die.
(Abu Bakr Radiyallahu Anhu then recited the following verse)
Allah Ta'aala says: "Muhammad is no more than an Apostle: many were the Apostles that passed away before him. If he died or were slain will you then turn back on your heels? If any did turn back on his heels not the least harm will he do to Allah; but Allah (on the other hand) will swiftly reward those who (serve him) with gratitude." Q3:144.
(The narrator added, "By Allah, it was as if the people never knew that Allah had revealed this verse, till Abu Bakr Radiyallahu Anhu recited it and then whoever heard it, started reciting it."). (Bukhar 2.333).
Even though we can never compare Usama Bin Laden to our leader Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam, we should ponder over this Hadeeth during this period of time. We, the team of Radio Islam are not passing any judgement whether Usama Bin Laden has passed on or not. However if he has passed on, it should not make us despondent. The Quraan mentions "Every soul shall taste of death". Not even Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam and His brothers of the fraternity of prophethood (Peace be upon them) was saved from the chapter called death.
As
Muslims we should believe that every soul will have to leave this world
at its appointed time even if the entire planet is against it.
Americans hang your heads in shame
Celebrating success in a one-sided game
Centuries ago David defeated his enemy
Till today the world acknowledges his victory
Presently, the David you are not
Your democracy is on the rot!
One vote for every man?
Kill a million persons for one terrorist, only you can
Two impoverished countries destroyed
Muslims the world over annoyed
Thirty countries allied
Innocent children of them parents denied
Ten years is what it took you
To arrest an enemy so few
Never proven guilty in court
Your propaganda is of every sort
But even if he’s been killed
Islamic spirit has not been sealed
Martyrdom was his lifelong aspiration
From the Ummah has he won the greatest admiration
Victory is actually his
Insha Allah, he will rest for ever in peace
Abu Hudhaifa

The
FBI had an opening for an assassin. After all the background checks,
interviews, and testing were done there were 3 finalists. Two men and
a woman. For the final test, the FBI agents took one of the men to a
large metal door and handed him a gun.
"We must know that you will follow your instructions no matter
what the circumstances. Inside the room you will find your wife sitting
in a chair. Kill Her!"
The man said, "You can't be serious, I could never shoot my wife."
The agent said, "Then you're not the right man for this job. Take
your wife and go home."
The second man was given the same instructions. He took the gun and
went into the room. All was quiet for about 5 minutes. The man came
out with tears in his eyes, "I tried, but I can't kill my wife."
The agent said, "You don't have what it takes. Take your wife and
go home."
Finally, it was the woman's turn. She was given the same instructions, to kill her husband. She took the gun and went into the room. Shots were heard, one after another. They heard screaming, crashing, banging on the walls. After a few minutes, all was quiet. The door opened slowly and there stood the woman. She wiped the sweat from her brow.
"This gun is loaded with blanks" she said. "I had to beat him to death with the chair."
