PRACTICE DUA FOR DAILY LIFE FROM QURAN AND SUNNAH

Remembrance of Allah in all Conditions

Allah Almighty says in the Qur'an:
"When my servants ask you concerning me, (tell them) I am indeed close (to them). I listen to the prayer of every suppliant when he calls on me." [2:186]

The place of duaa is so high to Allah, that the Prophet had said:
"Nothing is more honourable to Allah the Most High than du`a."
[Sahih al-Jami` no.5268]. He also said: "The most excellent worship is du`a."

[Sahih Al-Jami` no. 1133]; "If one does not ask Allah, He will get angry with him."
[Sahih al-Jami` no.2414]===================================================================================
Why our Du'as are not answered
by ibn Rajab al Hanbali
from Khushu' fis-salah

Ibrahim ibn Adham - may Allah have mercy on
him - a third century scholar, a teacher and a
companion of Sufyan ath-Thawri, was asked
about the saying of Allah - the Most High:

"and your Lord says: "Call on me I will answer
your prayer..."
[40:60]

"We supplicate and we are not answered."
So he said to them:

You know Allah,
Yet you do not obey Him,

You recite the Qur'an,
Yet do not act according to it,

You know Shaitan,
Yet you have agreed with him,

You proclaim that you love Muhammad
Yet you abandon his Sunnah,

You proclaim your love for Paradise,
Yet you do not act to gain it,

You proclaim your fear the Fire,
Yet you do not prevent yourselves from sins,

You say "Indeed death is true",
Yet you have not prepared for it,

You point out the faults with others,
Yet you do not look at your faults,

You eat of that which Allah has provided for you,
Yet you do not thank Him,

You bury your dead,
Yet you do not take a lesson from it."

Oh Allah, I am Your servant, the son of Your servant, the son of your maid-servant, and entirely at Your service. You hold me by my forelock. Your Decree is what controls me, and Your Commands to me are just. I beseech You by every one of Your Names, those which You use to refer to Yourself, or have revealed in Your Book, or have taught to any one of Your creation, or have chosen to keep hidden with You in the Unseen, to make the Qur’an Al-Karim the springtime of my heart, the light of my eyes, the departure of my grief, and the vanishing of my affliction and my sorrow.

[Ahmad 1:391, ibn Hibban]
The Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said, there is no-one who is afflicted by distress and grief, and says (the above), but Allah will take away his distress and grief, and replace it with joy." He was asked: "O Messenger of Allah, should we learn this?" He said: "Of course; everyone who hears it should learn it

தண்ணீர் குடிப்பதால்

12/16/2009 4:16:39 PM

தண்ணீர் குடிக்கும் போது உட்கார்ந்து குடிக்க வேண்டும். ஏனென்றால் நின்று கொண்டு தண்ணீரை குடிக்கும் போது தண்ணீர் வயிற்றிற்கு அதி வேகமாக செல்லும். அதனால் ஹெர்னியா ஏற்படும்.


தண்ணீர் அதிகமாக குடித்தால் முகப் பருக்கள் நீங்கும்; முகம் பளபளக்க செய்யும்.


தண்ணீர் குடிக்கும் போது குடிக்கும் பாத்திரத்தில் மூச்சு விடக்கூடாது. ஏனெனில் நாம் மூச்சு விடும் போது வெளியாகும் கிருமிகள் அந்த தண்ணீரில் சேர்ந்துவிடுகிறது. அதனை குடிக்கும் போது நோய் ஏற்படுகிறது.


தினமும் காலையில் வெறுவயிற்றுடன் தண்ணீர் குடிப்பதால் சர்க்கரை நோயை கட்டுப்பதுத்தலாம்.


----------
தண்ணீர் குடித்தால் காது வலி வருமா ?


கடந்த சில ஆண்டுகளாக, வெள்ளக்காடாகச் சூழ்ந்து விடுகின்ற மழைத்தண்ணீர் சலிப்பை உண்டாக்கியிருந்தாலும், உடல் ஆரோக்கியத்திற்குத் தண்ணீர் அன்றாடம் இரண்டு லிட்டர் குடிக்க வேண்டும் என்பது அவசியம். அதைப் பருகும் விதம் எப்படி என்பது இதோ இங்கே கூறப்படுவது சரிதானோ என்று யோசிக்க வைக்கின்றது.

டம்ளர் கணக்கில் தண்ணீர் குடியுங்கள் என்று கூறப்படுகிறது. எப்படிக் குடிக்க வேண்டும் ?



தண்ணீரை, டம்ளரில் நன்றாக வாய் வைத்துக் குடிக்க வேண்டும். அவசரமின்றி மெதுவாகக் குடிக்க வேண்டும். வாய் நிறைய தண்ணீரை வைத்திருந்து கொஞ்சம், கொஞ்சமாக வயிற்றுக்குள் இறக்குதல் வேண்டும். அப்பொழுது எச்சிலுடன் குதப்பி தண்ணீரை வயிற்றில் இறக்குவது உண்ட உணவு ஜீரணிக்கும்.

டம்ளரில் வாய்வைத்துக் குடித்தால், காதில் வருகிற நோய்கள் தள்ளிப் போகும். தண்ணீரைத் தலை அண்ணாந்திச் சாப்பிடுவது காது நோய்களுக்கு வழிவகுக்கும்.

தண்ணீரை அண்ணாத்திக் குடித்தததால் ஏற்பட்ட பாதிப்பால் சிலருக்கு விரைந்து காது நோய்கள் தோன்றுகின்றன. நமது உடம்பில் காது,மூக்கு,தொண்டை வழிகள் ஒரே பாதையில் அடுத்தடுத்து உள்ளன. ஒருபோதும் தண்ணீரை அண்ணாத்திக் குடிக்க வேண்டாம்.

==============================================

=====================================

Istinjaa - Bathroom Etiquette

Istinjaa: to remove the dirt, Najasah (impure substances) or lessen them after urinating. Wajib (compulsory), according to the prophet's Hadiths mentioned below.
The tools used for Istinjaa
Are either pure water, and this is the origin of all purification from Najasah, and all solid materials that can remove the dirt, like stones or paper tissues.
It is better to use BOTH (water & solid materials), but if only one is available then the priority is given to water.  If water is not available, then we use the solid material, under the following conditions: It must be dry material (not moisture), it must be used to remove the Najasah or dirt before it gets dry, the Najasah should not have touched other parts rather than the related organs, and the pieces should not be less than three pieces of the solid material being used, or more when needed, and one better make it in odd numbers (Witr): 3, 5, 7 ...etc.
"No one shall make "Estinjaa" without using three stones" (Muslim: 2622)
 
Materials not to be used for Istinjaa
1- We (obviously) should not use anything that is originally Najis (impure)..
The prophet SAAWS asked his servant (Abdullah Ibn Masood) to bring him three stones for "Estinja", Ibn Masood RAA only found two stones so he brought him a piece of animal's droppings (dung) that was dry.  When the prophet saw it, he threw it away and said that it is Najasah (impure). (Bukhary: 155)
2- We can not use any human's food for this purpose, neither we can use a Jinn's food (like bones) for "Estinja"
"Do not use bones for "Estinja"; they are the food for your Jinn brothers" (Muslim: 450) and (Tirmidhy: 18)
3- It is forbidden to use any of the animals parts, like it's hand or legs ...etc.  But if this part was pure and separate from a dead animal, like the skin that is tanned, it can be used.
 
Rules with regards to the place
It is forbidden to do urinating or "Estinjaa" in the following places:
1- Places were people sit, gather or pass by, as this would cause hurt to others.
"The prophet SAAWS said: avoid the two cursed things.  They said: and what are the two cursed things?  He SAAWS said: whoever urinate in the roads people pass by, and under the shadows where they rest"  (Muslim: 269) and others.
2- In a hole in the ground or a hole in the wall, as it might cause him hurt that it might be a shelter for snakes or scorpions, or he might hurt other weak animals.
"The prophet SAAWS forbade us from urinating in burrows (hole in the ground)" (Abu Dawood: 29)
3- Under trees that have (or might have) fruits; as a protection for the fruits from dirt.
4- Shallow water (or water that is not running). (Muslim: 281)
 
Rules concerning the person himself
1- It is not allowed to carry anything that has Allah's name (or any of His holy names) with him to where he is urinating..  As this is considered to be a Najis (impure) place that is not appropriate to carry or mention Allah's name(s).
Also when a Muslim passed by the prophet SAAWS while he was in the Khala, he said the greeting (Salam) to the prophet, but he SAAWS did not answer his greeting.
2- He/she should enter "Al khala" or the bathroom with his/her left leg and say: "Allahomma Inny A'ootho Bika Mina 'l 'khobothi Wa 'l 'khaba'ith"   or: "O' Allah: I seek refuge in you from male and female noxious beings (devils or evil Jinn)"
He/she should go out with his/her right leg and say: "Ghof'ranak" or "O' Allah: I seek your forgiveness".  Also the prophet SAAWS used to say when going out: "Alhamdu Lillah, Allathy Afany Wa Akhraja Al Atha Minny"  or: "All grace to Allah (thanks to Allah) who protected (cured) me, and relieved me from filth/harm"
*I personally believe the last Dua'a is so important, as it is a big grace to be able to get relieved from the filth or harm..  we only feel it when we are sick!  so I guess it's so appropriate to thank Allah for this grace.
3- One should not talk.  It is not appropriate for a Muslim while urinating to talk or discuss matters.  Many scholars said it is "dislike" or "Makrooh".
4- One should move and hide himself from others, as the prophet SAAWS only relieved himself when he was out of site.
5- One should neither face nor turn his back to the "Qibla" while relieving himself. *This is actually what Islamic Housing designs should consider when building the bathrooms or toilets.
6- One should use his left hand for the cleaning after urinating "Estinjaa", as it is more appropriate.  It is Makrooh to use his right hand for this purpose or to touch his private parts with it.
"Salman was once asked: Your prophet teaches you everything, even how to relieve yourselves?
Salman said: Certainly.... he forbade us from facing the Qiblah while doing so, from cleaning ourselves with our right hand, and from cleaning ourselves with less than three stones.  We also should not use an impure substance or a bone to clean our selves" (Muslim, Abu Dawood and At-Tirmidhy)

IMPORTANT OF EDUCATION IN ISLAM

The Prophet MOHAMMED (pbuh) said: "Attainment of knowledge is a must for every Muslim.The Prophet MOHAMMED (pbuh) said: "Seek knowledge from the Cradle to the Grave
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Woman travelling to seek
knowledge without a mahram

What is the Islamic ruling on a woman travelling to seek knowledge without a mahram?.

Praise be to Allaah.

Firstly:

The saheeh evidence indicates that a woman is not allowed to travel except with a mahram. This is part of the perfection and greatness of Islam, which protects honour, and honours and takes care of women, and strives to protect them and guard them against the causes of temptation and deviation, whether she is the one who is tempted or is the source of temptation.

The evidence includes the hadeeth narrated by al-Bukhaari (1729) and Muslim (2391) from Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him) who said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “No woman should travel except with a mahram, and no man should enter upon her unless there is a mahram with her.” A man said: “O Messenger of Allaah, I want to go out with such and such an army and my wife wants to go for Hajj.” He said: “Go out with her.”

Based on that, it is not permissible for a woman to travel to seek knowledge without a mahram. She should acquire the knowledge that she needs in the many ways that are available, such as listening to tapes, asking scholars over the phone and other means that Allaah has made available in these times.

=====
 It is known from the teachings of Islam that seeking knowledge and seeking to understand the religion is one of the best acts of worship and obedience to Allah. The same is true for studying Quran and trying to recite and memorize it as much as one can. All of these are among the best acts of worship.

Allah says in the Noble Quran:

"Say (O Muhammad): 'This is my way; I invite unto Allah (i.e. to the Oneness of Allah -- Islamic Monotheism) with sure knowledge, I and whosoever follows me (also must invite others to Allah, i.e. to the Oneness of Allah -- Islamic Monotheism with sure knowledge). And Glorified and Exalted be Allah (above all that they associate as partners with Him). And I am not of the Mushrikun (polytheists, pagans, idolaters and disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah; those who worship others along with Allah or set up rivals or partners to Allah)'" [Yusuf 12:108]

And the Prophet (peace be upon him) said:

"When Allah wills good for a person, He grants him proper understanding of religion."

The Prophet (peace be upon him) said:

"The believer will never have enough of listening to good things (seeking knowledge) until he reaches Paradise." Narrated by al-Tirmidhi

The Prophet (peace be upon him) also said:

"Whoever follows a path to seek knowledge, Allah will make easy for him the path to Paradise. The angels beat their wings in approval of the seeker of knowledge, and those who are in the heavens and on earth pray for forgiveness for the scholar, even the fish in the water. The superiority of the scholar over the worshipper is like the superiority of the moon over all other heavenly bodies. The scholars are the heirs of the Prophets, for the Prophets did not leave behind dinars or dirhams, rather they left behind knowledge, so whoever gains knowledge has gained great good fortune.'" Narrated by al-Tirmidhi

Allah has given us many ways nowadays that make it easy to seek knowledge without any hardship and without having to go of the house; that is by means of cassette tapes, the computer and the internet.

Women - and also men - must follow the right way of acquiring knowledge, starting with what is easy before embarking on difficult matters. It is also essential to use a balanced approach and not to take on more than you can handle so that you will not give up.


TIPS FOR SEEKING KNOWLEDGE:

We advise our sisters to do the following:

1. Be Sincere:
Remember, seeking knowledge is an act of worship and Allah will not accept any act of worship unless it's done sincerely for His sake. Fame, status, wealth, arguing with people or debating with scholars, are all things that will corrupt the sincerity of the heart. Seek knowledge for the pleasure of Allah alone, to obey His commands, and to remove ignorance from yourself and others.

2. Memorize Quran:
Do your best to memorize a portion of the Quran on a daily base. Stick to a daily schedule and memorize a few verses. It may be a good idea to commit to a small daily portion, and do not increase it even if you find that you have more time and energy on some occasions, for a small deed that is done regularly is better than a large deed done intermittently.

3. Overall Knowledge:
Read summaries of all branches of knowledge, and leave the detailed works for later. Every branch of knowledge has books which give a gradual approach, starting with brief discussions and ending with lengthy and detailed analysis.
Read a little about Tawheed, Hadith, Fiqh and all other branches of knowledge.

4. Understand & Memorize What You Read:
Do your best to memorize these texts if you can, because memorizing evidence, whether from the Quran or Sunnah will help you in following the correct path to knowledge. The scholars said, "Whoever memorizes the texts has excelled."

5. Commentaries and Notes:
Try to acquire books with commentaries by trustworthy scholars. And never hesitate to fill the margin of your book with notes that will help you remember things later.

6. Study with a Trusted Sheikh, or Other Sisters:
Seek someone with a religious commitment and knowledge. If that is not possible, then look for sisters who are seekers of knowledge and ahead of you on the path.

7. Stay Away From Confusion & Doubt:
Do not start with controversial books before you have mastered the basics of evidence from the Quran and the correct Sunnah.

8. Seek Knowledge that Relates to You:
You should seek out knowledge specifically relating to women in Islam, about being a daughter, wife and mother, your role in society and within you neighborhood and community.

9. Make the Best Use of Time:
Make the most of your youth and your whole life by learning. Do not be deceived by procrastination and wishful thinking about the future. Every hour of your life that passes cannot be replaced. Do away with whatever you can of distractions and obstacles which prevent you from striving your utmost to attain knowledge.

10. Be Creative in Finding Time:
Having kids or household chores does not have to be a barrier, rather it can be an excuse to learn more! Play a lecture or an audio book while ironing, pairing the socks, dusting the room, or washing the dishes. Praise be to Allah, now you are seeking knowledge and getting your chores done too. And it makes the chores go quicker!!

11. Vary Your Means of Acquiring Knowledge:
Use a variety of methods of seeking knowledge so that you will not get bored, such as reading, listening and watching.

12. Be Patient - Do Not Be Hasty:
The path is long and hard, and whoever strives hard at the beginning will reach their target.

13. Act Upon What You Learn:
Knowledge calls for action, but if it meets with no response, it will move on.

14. Be Humble Towards Allah:
Beware of two dangers: arrogance, and destructive envy (hasad).
The early companions would listen to those who were older than them in order to learn good manners, and they would listen to those who were younger than them in order to learn humility.

One of the salaf said, "No shy or arrogant person will ever seek knowledge." So shyness should not stop you from asking questions about Islam. And arrogance is harmful in this world and in the Hereafter; one of its harmful effects in this world is that it keeps a person from asking and learning.

15. Ask Allah to help:
You should seek the help of Allah in your pursuit of knowledge and Dawah. Putting one's trust in Allah, pursuing the appropriate means, and praying to Him to make things easy are all among the greatest and most beneficial means of reaching one's goal.

And Allah Knows Best

Ketamine use 'can destroy bladder' say scientists 17 March 2012 Last updated at 09:41 GMT Help  

The Class C drug ketamine can destroy the bladder, new research has shown.

Researchers at York University have been growing bladder tissue in a laboratory to study what happens to human cells when they are mixed with the drug, which is used as an animal tranquillizer.

Concerns about its increased recreational use, and the harm that ketamine can cause, have led the Home Office to order a review.

The BBC's Adele Robinson reports
