• Burning Desire Fulfilled: Mufti Sulaiman Moola’s Journey to Graduating in the Iftaa Course

• Household Express:Guest Rahima Khan Sisterhood and the love of good food

Sayyadina Abdullah bin Haarith (RA) says: "We ate roasted meat with the Prophet of Allah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) in the Masjid".

Commentary: From this we find that it is permissible to eat and drink in the Masjid, on condition that the Masjid does not become untidy, otherwise it is Makruh (undesirable) to do so. It is possible that this was at the time of I'tikaaf (in Ramadaan). It was the practice of Sayyidina Rasulullah (Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam) to observe I'tikaaf every year, and at that time it is obvious that.

O Allah, forgive our living and our dead, those present and those absent, our young and our old, our males and our females. O Allah, whom amongst us You keep alive, then let such a life be upon Islam, and whom amongst us You take unto Yourself, then let such a death be upon faith. O Allah, do not deprive us of his reward and do not let us stray after him. [Sunan Abi Dawud] (Aameen)

The Minister of Public Works wanted to remodel her office, so she invited different contractors for tenders.

One was from Johannesburg, one from Durban and the last one from Soweto.

"OK gentlemen, I want a nice job," She said, "Let's hear from JHB?"

The guy took out his ultrasonic measuring device and tablet computer and began measuring, scrawling on the computer, calculating. Eventually he said "R90 000, Madam Minister," "That seems like quite a lot of money! Why R90 000?" "You see," he replied, "that's R40 000 for material, R40 000 for labour and R10 000 for my profit".

Stella seemed OK with that and turned to the Durban contractor. "So how much do you want to do the job?" she asked. The Durban fella took out a rusted tape measure, broken clipboard and a blunt pencil. He took some measurements, scratched some calculations on the back of his Rothmans box and came up with a figure of R70 000.

"That's interesting!" Said Stella. "Explain the R70 000?" "Simple, Madam Minister, I got a brother-in-law in the hardware trade, so that's R35 000 for materials, R30 000 for my guys, and R5 000 for my profit and all."

Stella was amused but happy to accept the explanation.

Then she asked the Soweto contractor for his quotation. He just smiled, looked the minister in the eyes and said, "R270 000!" "Yoh Yoh Yoh... How did you come to that amount without even taking your measurements? What is that amount for?" "That's R100 000 for me and R100 000 for you!" "So what about the remaining R70 000?"

"We hire that guy from Durban to do the job!!!"
