Durood Protects Tawhid

posted by ummi taalib on 21st May 2013 - 1 comment

Shaikh Mufti Nawalur Rahman (db) Hazrath Mufti sahab said that durood protects tawhid.

How, why? Look at those people who are doing shirk..lets take the Christians for example and what they have done with Nabi Eesa (as). Nabi Eesa (as) was able to resurrect the dead, give sight to the blind, and his people made him son of god, nauzubillah.

by Mawlānā Sajid Irshad [i]I look at the past and delve into your wonderful life of events, How everything was pre-destined, all that you acquired and spent. Nothing was coincidental or a mishap, but a blessing from above sent, Indeed, those were special souls around you who came and went. I wish I was one of the loyal men around you who had seen your face,

Shaykh Muhammad Saleem Dhorats invigorating and stimulating words of advice on the current situation speaking at The Dawah Conference held by At-Taqwa Academy (London 30th September 2012). The following is a short but very important summery of the talk. Warafanaa laka dhikrak And We have elevated your mention Quran 94:4 Islam is the same, with the same honour as before. The Glorious Quran too remains unchanged and the honour of our beloved Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu alayhi wasallam also remains unchanged. Our respected Shaykh (Hafizahullah), after mentioning many great points regarding the extremly high status of our Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu 'alayhi wasallam, explains further. An Aalim remains an Aalim depite denial from anyone. Even if the whole world was to deny it, it would not change the fact that he is an Aalim. Similarly our Prophet Muhammads sallallaahu alayhi wasallam elevated status which Allah subhaanahu wataala has mentioned in the Glorious Quran will remain the same despite insults in the form of a film on you-tube or disparaging words! These insults do not change anything. Muslims everywhere continue to love him and salutations continue being sent to him.

A Beautiful Explanation

posted by ummi taalib on 15th February 2011 - 0 comments

On sending Durood upon our beloved Nabi sallallaahu alayhi wasallam (from Ibn Aabideen) which has made such an impact on me that I wished to share it with others Insha Allah. When we send As-Salaat upon our beloved Nabi sallallaahu alayhi wasallam, the word salaat means, a complete (kaamil) praise, except that it is not within our capability to do so. Therefore we have been ordered to consign it to Allah subhaanahu wataala to do, which when He does, will be a complete praise. Another meaning in the word, salaat is that of tatheem (honour/reverence) i.e. Allaahumma aththimhu. We are asking Allah subhaanahu wataala to elevate/exalt his name in this world i.e. speak of him in a noble manner and by spreading/implementing his Shareeat. We are also asking Allah subhaanahu wataala to exalt him in the Hereafter by multiplying his reward and granting him intersession of his Ummah. Also Mufti Shafi ra writes that that the status of Nabi sallallaahu alayhi wasallam is so high, that the act of sending salaat upon him is already being done by Allah himself and his Angels as indicated in Surah Ahzab. By reciting durood, we are asking Allah to increase the salaat he sends upon Nabi sallallaahu alayhi wasallam.

Love for the Beloved's City

posted by ummi taalib on 31st October 2010 - 0 comments

Majnun, the man so madly in love that it turned him into a poet, used to recite such sweet words whilst in his stupor of love:

[i]I pass by the houses of Layla, I kiss this wall and I kiss that wall. It is not the love of the houses that has enraptured my heart, but the one that resides within them.[/center] Thus, it is no secret that the lover loves everything associated with his beloved. As lovers of the Messenger of Allah, we too should have a natural and deep yearning for his blessed city, the walls of which his blessed body is residing in. The Believers love for Madinah should be like that of a fish out of water, agitated and unable to survive.
