Importance of Parents
Abdullah ibn Umar, a leading scholar among the Prophet’s (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) companions once saw a man from Yemen carrying his mother on his back and going around the Kaaba in his tawaf. Rather than show any sign of complaint, the man was happy, repeating a line of poetry in which he likened himself to a camel his mother was mounting. The only difference is that a camel may be scared by something and go out of control. He would never go out of her control.
He looked at Abdullah ibn Umar and asked him whether by so doing he discharged his debt to his mother. Ibn Umar said: “No. You have not even paid back one twinge of her labour pain when Read more ...

And His Cries Went Unheard : Husband Abuse Unveiled
Written By : Umm Zakiyyah
“I DON'T care who’s listening,” the sister spoke angrily into her friend’s phone, prompting the other sisters in the room to look in her direction, concerned expressions on their faces as they halted their own chatter amongst themselves.
“I have somewhere to go, Abdullah. I’m tired of this—“
There was the muffled sound of a man’s voice coming through the receiver.
“No, no, I’m not going to be patient. You are so irresponsible. I can’t depend on you for anything. I swear!”
More muffled sounds.
“You are such a stup—”
The sister stopped mid-syllable as the phone line Read more ...
Speak a good word or remain silent
Abu Hurairah relates that Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) said: "Anybody who believes in Allah and the Last Day should not harm his neighbor, and anybody who believes in Allah and the Last Day should entertain his guest generously and anybody who believes in Allah and the Last Day should talk what is good or keep quiet. (i.e. abstain from all kinds of evil and dirty talk)." [Sahih al-Bukhari, Book #75, Hadith #47]

The Secret of Prayer : Sujood
The Secret of Prayer: Sujood
Ibn Al-Qayyim described the sujood as the secret of prayer, the greatest pillar, and the seal of the ruku’. He said all the other actions we did before it were just preludes.

Ta’if : A Lesson in Persistence
It had been a year of sorrow and misfortune for Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). First, his beloved wife Khadijah died. She was, from all people, the best supporter he had. Soon afterwards, his uncle Abu Talib died. As the head of the Prophet’s clan, he was the only person who was able to give him protection from the rest of the tribe of Quraysh. Abu Talib loved his nephew Muhammad intensely, and it pained Prophet Muhammad all the more that his uncle died a disbeliever.
The death, in the same year, of the Prophet’s wife Khadijah and his uncle Abu Talib magnified the Prophet’s sorrows and doubled his feelings of estrangement and alienation and Read more ...
