In the Name of Allah, The Most Compassionate, The Most Merciful

All praise is to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds. I ask His forgiveness, seek His aid, and ask Him for guidance. I seek refuge in Allah from the evil that is in ourselves, and from the evil of our actions. Whomever Allah guides, none can send astray, and whomever Allah sends astray, none can guide. I testify that none has the right to be worshipped except Allah, alone and without partner. And, I testify that Muhammad (SAW) is His slave and Messenger, peace and blessings be upon him, his family, his companions and the rightly guided predecessors until the Last Day. Ameen!

As-salaam’ wa-Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu.

Welcome to my blog! I would like to take the opportunity to thank you all who visit my blog.

I started this blog primarily to input my heart content on my life. But gradually, the topic shifted to the Big picture.. the greatest truth… Islam. The focus is on spreading the truth about Islam. I believe that our Religion calls to many essentials, so we call to the most essential affair, followed by that which is next in importance, in accordance to the Quranic and Prophetic texts, just as Allaah’s Messenger (Sallallahu alayhi wassallam) said to Mu’aadh b. Jabal (radhiAllaahu anhu): “Let the first thing you call them to be that they worship Allaah alone. If they affirm that, then inform them that Allaah has obligated upon them five prayers during the night and day. If they affirm that, then inform them that Allaah has obligated upon them the Zakaat..”

I call, first and foremost, to the worship of Allaah alone, without associating partners with Him. This was the starting point of the call of the Messengers (alayhumus salaam), just as Allaah has stated: “We sent a messenger to every nation proclaiming: Worship Allaah alone and leave the worship of the false deities.” So this call to the worship of Allaah alone is coupled with the negation of the worship of anything besides Him.

The Sunnah is Revelation just as the Quran is Revelation, just as Allaah, the Most High, said: “He (the Prophet) does not speak from his desires, rather it is nothing except Revelation that is sent to him.” I believe that the Sunnah is whatever was conveyed to the Prophet (Sallallahu alayhi wassallam)other than the Quran due the saying of the Prophet (Sallallahu alayhi wassallam): “Indeed I have been given the Quran and that which is like it.”

This blog is a simple and humble effort on my part to spread the beautiful Deen of Allaah and to inform the people about the Religion and on issues concerning the Muslim ‘Ummah in general. In-sha’Allaah, it will be of some benefit.

On some opinions, we may share a common ground while other times, we shall depart on different paths. However I just want you to know that I respect all opinions and mine will never stand superior to any. The only ruling and opinion that stands on highness is that of Allaah and His messenger. For all the ‘Ummah, the authentic sources of Islam, should be the Quran, which is the word of God, and the authentic Sunnah, and the traditions of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (may peace and blessings be upon him).

“My counsel, if I wished to counsel you, I cannot profit you if Allah has decided that you should go astray. He is your Lord and to Him you shall be returned.” (Quran, Surah Hud 11:34)
