something which is insignificant and completely irrelevant in the true picture

bring upon us different punishments, and at times, those sins are such of a
nature that can take the person out of Deen. The person leaves Deen because he
kept breaking the rules and did not care to rectify his actions. He had no
remorse, no regret, no concern for the consequences and penalties.</span></p>

condition as an Ummah is such that we have lost our direction and we have
forgotten our purpose being in this world. In addition to the various fitan
plaguing the Ummah, the sports scene – with its national and international
matches, tournaments, cups, etc. – is also a severe fitnah. It is a diversion
and a cause of ghaflat (heedlessness). And this ghaflat is 'the hen that lays
the eggs of all sins'. </span></p>

the mindset of the Muslim has changed! If Rasulullah <i>Sallallaahu ‘alayhi

of the Muslim teams going around the world to play football; their dressing
which exposes their thighs, the entertainment, music, photography, the women attending,
who are immodestly dressed, the drinking and other Haraam which will be rife at
those venues; the sponsorships by those fully involved in Haraam –
manufacturers of liquor, banks and other Haraam establishments …would Rasulullah
<i>Sallallaahu ‘alayhi wasallam</i> have said: <i>Support your national team!</i>

he be happy with this? And would he be pleased that the Ummah considers this
kind of 'win' a great victory? Is this what we have been sent for… to win soccer

was so simple that it was made of mud walls; the roof was made of palm leaves
and the palm tree trunks were used as pillars. The entire Masjid did not have a
roof, nor was there anything that covered the ground. When it rained, the
roof leaked, the ground became mud … and Salaah would be performed like that.
The greatest Nabi of Allah Ta’ala; the Beloved of Allah Ta’ala <i>Sallallaahu
‘alayhi wasallam</i>; yet his Masjid was so simple.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 125%; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 14.2pt; margin-right: 11.85pt; margin-top: 0cm; margin: 0cm 11.85pt 0cm 14.2pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Gentium Basic"; font-size: 13pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 125%;"> </span></p>

thereafter we will make Salaah. It is not easy to make everything comfortable
for everyone in the Masjid. Some feel cold, others feel hot … and it is not
possible to adjust the fans or air-conditioners to suit all. We are supposed to
become Mujahids in the Masjid – but instead we just want ease, comfort and
luxuries. Due to our weakness, we do not have such simple Masaajid. Of
course, it is permissible to have a well-built Masjid, carpets,
air-conditioners and so forth. However, the purpose of building Masaajid is not
for the luxuries, the decorative designs and architecture, or to compete with
others. It is for the Ibaadah of Allah Ta’ala.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 125%; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 14.2pt; margin-right: 11.85pt; margin-top: 0cm; margin: 0cm 11.85pt 0cm 14.2pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Gentium Basic"; font-size: 13pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 125%;"> </span></p>

say: <span style="color: #002060;">“In the time of Rasulullah <i>Sallallaahu
‘alayhi wasallam</i>, the Masjid was <i>kachha</i> (made of mud walls) but the
Musallis were <i>pakka</i> (true and genuine). Nowadays the Masaajid are <i>pakka</i>
(i.e., the buildings are solid) but the Musallis are <i>kachha</i> (weak in the
Imaan and a’maal).”</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 125%; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 14.2pt; margin-right: 11.85pt; margin-top: 0cm; margin: 0cm 11.85pt 0cm 14.2pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Gentium Basic"; font-size: 13pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 125%;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 125%; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 14.2pt; margin-right: 11.85pt; margin-top: 0cm; margin: 0cm 11.85pt 0cm 14.2pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Gentium Basic"; font-size: 13pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 125%;">…The Sahabah (Radhiyallahu ‘anhum) were solid in their
Imaan. Nothing would shake their Imaan. They were able to conquer the
world with their solid Imaan and solid characters. The preparation of their
noble character was in the Masjid. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 125%; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 14.2pt; margin-right: 11.85pt; margin-top: 0cm; margin: 0cm 11.85pt 0cm 14.2pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Gentium Basic"; font-size: 13pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 125%;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 125%; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 14.2pt; margin-right: 11.85pt; margin-top: 0cm; margin: 0cm 11.85pt 0cm 14.2pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Gentium Basic"; font-size: 13pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 125%;">Hazratjee, Maulana Yusuf (Rahmatullahi ‘alayh) also said
that we are in deception, thinking that our money governs the Masjid. …We make
the Masaajid elaborate and focus on material commodities for the Masjid, but it
has become empty of the A’maal which were found in Masjidun-Nabawi (<i>Sallallaahu
‘alayhi wasallam</i>). We, ourselves, are not present in the Masjid; negligent
with Salaah in Jamaat and even turn away from the call of the Mu’azzin, yet it
is in the Masjid where our Imaan is developed. It is where our brotherhood is
established. It is where our unity is cemented. So many Masaajid are built at
great expense, but some are empty and others have just a handful of Musallis,
despite so many Muslims residing in those areas.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 125%; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 14.2pt; margin-right: 11.85pt; margin-top: 0cm; margin: 0cm 11.85pt 0cm 14.2pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Gentium Basic"; font-size: 14pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 125%;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 125%; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 14.2pt; margin-right: 11.85pt; margin-top: 0cm; margin: 0cm 11.85pt 0cm 14.2pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Gentium Basic"; font-size: 13pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 125%;">In the time of Rasulullah <i>Sallallaahu ‘alayhi wasallam</i>,
the Masjid was so simple that it did not have expenses. However, the people <b>attended</b>
the Masjid. Their hearts were attached to the Masjid. They loved the Masjid.
Besides the Jamaat Salaah, they were engaged in acquiring Ilm (knowledge), in
Zikrullah (Remembrance of Allah Ta'ala), Dua and other Ibaadaat in the Masjid.
There, they were also trained to become Da’ees and to strive for Deen. The
Masjid was the training centre of all activities of good for the Believer. And
the fruit of it was seen at Badr, Uhud, Khandaq, Fath-e-Makkah, etc.
Thereafter, when the Sahaba-e-Kiraam (Radhiyallahu ‘anhum) went out in the
world, Allah Ta’ala gave them authority and rule over vast territories. They
not only conquered lands; they conquered hearts. Thousands upon thousands came
into the fold of Islam.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 125%; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 14.2pt; margin-right: 11.85pt; margin-top: 0cm; margin: 0cm 11.85pt 0cm 14.2pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Gentium Basic"; font-size: 13pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 125%;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 125%; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 14.2pt; margin-right: 11.85pt; margin-top: 0cm; margin: 0cm 11.85pt 0cm 14.2pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Gentium Basic"; font-size: 13pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 125%;">When we compare; how contrasting our Masaajid are to the
Masjid of Rasulullah <i>Sallallaahu ‘alayhi wasallam</i>; how different we are
to the Musallis who frequented the Masjid in the time of Rasulullah <i>Sallallaahu
‘alayhi wasallam</i> – the Sahaba-e-Kiraam (Radhiyallahu ‘anhum); how
neglectful we have become of the A’maal of the Masjid. The consequences of our
heedlessness are experienced throughout the Muslim world. We are seeing the
difficulties and suffering. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 125%; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 14.2pt; margin-right: 11.85pt; margin-top: 0cm; margin: 0cm 11.85pt 0cm 14.2pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: red; font-family: "Gentium Basic"; font-size: 13pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 125%;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 125%; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 14.2pt; margin-right: 11.85pt; margin-top: 0cm; margin: 0cm 11.85pt 0cm 14.2pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Gentium Basic"; font-size: 13pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 125%;">Again, there is nothing wrong with having different
amenities in the Masjid for our comfort, but we need to bring those A’maal
alive in the Masjid, as was done in the time of Rasulullah <i>Sallallaahu
'alayhi wasallam</i> and the Sahaba-e-Kiraam (Radhiyallahu 'anhum). We will
have to frequent the Masjid to do so; otherwise, how will we achieve

lives in obedience to Allah Ta'ala and His Rasul <i>Sallallaahu 'alayhi

Ta'ala, His Mercy, His Protection, His Help and success in both worlds. The sad

where Muslims reside and Masaajid have been built. If you go for Fajr Salaah,
you may find five or six people only. There are several Masaajid in and
around our area but many are negligent in performing their Salaah, in Jamaat
(congregation). There are towns where big Ijtimas have taken place; where thousands
of people had travelled to and gathered, for the noble purpose of Islaah and
improvement in Deen. In these towns and suburbs, there are a majority of
Muslims. Very sadly, in one of the towns, we found only eight people for the Fajr Salaah –
during the winter time. We were told that there were ten, but it had <b>decreased</b>
to eight. …This is our ingratitude. And ingratitude invites severe punishment. Allah

become prisoners in our own homes. …When the people were not leaving their
homes and going to the Masjid at a time when there was no fear, this was
ingratitude to Allah Ta’ala. This was ingratitude for the Amaan – the safety
and security – that was prevailing. One of our major sins is Kufraan-e-Ni’mat
(ingratitude for Allah Ta’ala’s bounties). Our punishment is in the form of
this great fear that we live in. Allah Ta’ala relates in the Qur’aan Shareef:</span></p>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 110%;">A person had
come to meet me, to discuss some of his problems. In the conversation, he said: <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“Maulana, my ‘lighty’ (son) is only 24 years
of age but he’s done very well for himself! He has achieved a great deal in his
young age. …He has a house in a posh suburb, a luxury car and a very
flourishing business - and all this is due to his hard work and effort.”</i></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 110%;">I said: <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">“Masha-Allah, it really pleases us when we
hear about the progress of the Muslims, whether it is in the economic field or
any other field. However, as a father, you should also look towards how well
your ‘lighty’ is doing with his Ibaadah. Is there Salaah, Roza, Zakaah, Hajj in
his life? Is he honest and trustworthy in his business dealings? Is he spending
his wealth in the correct avenues? These are the things we must be concerned about.” </i></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 110%;">As far as progress, in the material
field is concerned, it is a good thing and we appreciate it. If material
progress is achieved, with the blessings of Allah Ta’ala, this is something to
be happy about. But if wealth reaches us accompanied with the displeasure of
Allah Ta’ala - due to our sins - then this is very dangerous. It is no
blessing; rather it is an A<u>z</u>aab (punishment) in a disguised form. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 110%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 21.3pt; margin-right: 18.95pt; margin-top: 0cm; text-align: justify;">

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 110%;">What we really
have to ascertain is, as to whether our progress and success is accompanied
with the blessings of Allah Ta’ala or the displeasure and wrath of Allah. If it
is the former, Al<u>h</u>amdulillah. The person should express tremendous
gratitude and use the Ni’mat’s (bounties) of Allah Ta’ala in a manner that will
be pleasing to Him. If these material bounties are followed with the
displeasure of Allah Ta’ala, then this is akin to feeding a rat. …We feed the
pigeons and we feed the rats as well. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 110%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 21.3pt; margin-right: 18.95pt; margin-top: 0cm; text-align: justify;">

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 110%;">We feed the
pigeons or little budgies because we like them. We feed the fish in the
aquarium because we want to continue to enjoy seeing them. Other animals are
also fed because we have made these our pets. We like them. Since it gives us
pleasure to have them and see them, we feed them.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 110%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 21.3pt; margin-right: 18.95pt; margin-top: 0cm; text-align: justify;">

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 110%;">On the other
hand, we also feed rats with beautiful pieces of cheese. However, those
beautiful pieces of cheese are to trap the rat – because we see rats and mice
as <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">pests</i>
and not pets. Previously, traps and little cages were set up to catch the rats.
Cheese was placed in the cages, to attract the attention of the rat. …When
the rat enters the ‘room’ (cage), it falls into deception. It thinks: <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Masha-Allah, a beautiful, air-conditioned
room – for me!’</i> When it sees the cheese, it thinks: <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">This master; the owner of this home! What a wonderful man he is! How
generous! He is even concerned about my entertainment. He is very hospitable to
even provide the best cheese in the country, just for me.</i> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 110%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 21.3pt; margin-right: 18.95pt; margin-top: 0cm; text-align: justify;">

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 110%;">…But we know
otherwise. It is for no other purpose except to trap the rat. When the rat
begins nibbling at the cheese, the trapdoor shuts and the rat is caught. What
seemed so comfortable and enjoyable becomes a misfortune and curse.</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 110%;"> </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 110%;">In a like
manner, if material bounties are accompanied or followed with sins and the displeasure of Allah
Ta’ala, then this is like how the rat is fed. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 110%;">Allah Ta’ala gives out of
His pleasure and He also gives out of displeasure. When Allah Ta’ala is pleased
with a servant of His, He grants to him His Bounties, in this world as well as
in the Aakhirah (Hereafter). … Some of the pious servants of Allah Ta’ala may
not get the material bounties of this world, but Allah Ta’ala gives to them the
unlimited bounties of the Aakhirah. Despite the trials of this worldly life,
their lives are like roses blooming amidst thorns. This contentment and
Radha-bil-Qadha are also great blessings from Allah Ta’ala. ...So, in
accordance with His wisdom, Allah Ta’ala gives. </span></div>

Kuffaar (Disbelievers), Mushrikeen (Polytheists), Yahood (Jews) and Nasarah
(Christians): If Allah Ta’ala gives or He does not give to them, both are forms
of His A<u>z</u>aab (punishment). The A<u>z</u>aab (punishment) of Allah Ta’ala
can come in either form. We have seen plenty of evidence of how Allah Ta’ala
makes the lives of some people so restless – full of worries and anxieties – in
spite of them having all the material luxuries and comforts that one can
imagine. For others, Allah Ta’ala takes away and makes their lives miserable. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 110%;">If a Muslim is
making progress in the material world, we will say Masha-Allah, that is very
good. Islam does not rule out progress and success – so long as it is within
the boundaries of Shari’ah; so long as there is obedience to Allah Ta’ala.
However, we need to be very careful that this wealth does not lead us toward
destruction. The wealth of a person must not lead to the disobedience of Allah
Ta’ala; it must not lead to the cinemas, theatres, gambling dens, prostitute
quarters and other kinds of Haraam entertainment, or to lavishness and extravagance. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>This will bring many problems, great misery
and spiritual destruction. </span></div>

making a sincere effort to please Allah Ta’ala and Allah Ta’ala has granted
material wealth, then as said - he should express tremendous gratitude, and use the bounties
of Allah Ta’ala in a manner that will be pleasing to Him. He should not only
use it for himself. He should also use it for the Deen and for the upliftment
of the Ummah as well as the upliftment of the lives of those who are poor and
needy.</span></div>

May Allah Ta'ala make us of His obedient, humble and grateful servants. </span></div>

arguments arise because we entertain a lot of expectations in people. If we

up, obtains his degrees, goes into some profession and forgets that he even has
parents. …We are living in such a time, where many children don’t care about their
parents. Despite the parents making so many sacrifices, there is no mercy and no compassion
from the children. Many children live for themselves, with no thought of those
who brought them to this stage in their lives, where they are successful. This
then creates a deep sense of disappointment, ill feelings and bitterness within
the parents. Arguments arise and sometimes relationships are severed.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>

feelings, complains and demands, because she was expecting and feels that she
is entitled to some kind of special treatment. This naturally leads to a strain
in her marriage, because the complaint is against the husband’s parents and family. </span></div>

me.’ </i>…He raises his two hands, especially in the latter part of the night
or early part of the morning, when there is no one to see him raising those
hands, except Allah Ta’ala; he will then see how Allah Ta’ala suffices for him.

made sincerely and with deep conviction that Allah Ta’ala is the One who
answers. The key is Yaqeen (conviction), believing firmly that Allah Ta’ala
will respond in the best way. Hazrat Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanwi (Ra<u>h</u>matullah
‘alaih) said that the Dua which we just read, without sincerity and without the
conviction that Allah Ta’ala can do for us, will not draw Divine response.</span></div>

a problem, he should get up for Tahajjud Salaah. At that part of the night or
morning, raise his hands, shed some tears, repent and turn towards Allah
Ta’ala. Then see how Allah Ta’ala creates ‘asbaab’ (means). It will baffle and
amaze us. The person won’t know how Allah Ta’ala made the arrangements for
him. Imam Shafi’ee (Rahmatullahi ‘Alayh) had said: ‘The Dua at Tahajjud is like
an arrow, which does not miss its mark.’ – that is, it is most accepted. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "gentium book basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 115%;">When it comes to conveying the message of Deen to others, we must not
think that we are doing the people a great favour and benefiting them with our
knowledge. Unfortunately, our thinking is generally such, that we believe that
we are better Muslims; that we are practising and others are not, and we need
to guide them. Our Akaabir (pious elders) used to advise and instruct us that our Niyyah
(intention), when going out in Jamaat, should be for our own Islaah
(reformation)... not with the thought that we are in a position to reform other
people. Similarly, with other forms of Ta’leem and Khidmah; the intention
should also be for our own Islaah. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "gentium book basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 115%;">One Jamaat was going to Palestine and thereafter to Saudi Arabia, to work amongst the people there. There were also some
‘Ulama in that Jamaat. Before departure, they came for some advice. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "gentium book basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 115%;">Since they were seeking some advice, I said to them: When you go to
these people in Saudi Arabia or in Palestine, don’t go with the mindset that
we, in South Africa, have made tremendous progress in our Deen, and we are very
practical Muslims. Don’t go to them with the approach and thought:<i>
Unfortunately, their Imaan and Islam is very weak, so we have come to teach
them Imaan and Islam.</i> …Don’t go with that kind of an opinion. </span><span style="font-family: "gentium book basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "gentium book basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 115%;">Tell them: <i>We have come to you to tell you of your fore-fathers’
great, great favour upon us. They made sacrifices at a time when communication
was extremely difficult; when travel was very, very dangerous; when they did
not have the kind of radar systems and technology as we have now. </i>…Traversing
the lands and crossing the oceans was not an easy thing. It was not like how we
have today. Today, ships have such technology and apparatus whereby they easily
navigate through the waters of the oceans. Nowadays, travel is often by plane,
which offers ease and convenience.<i> </i></span><span style="font-family: "gentium book basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"></span></div>

<i><span style="font-family: "gentium book basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 115%;">Your fore-fathers did not have such equipment but they had deep desire
that this beautiful Deen of Allah Ta’ala must not only remain within the four
walls of their homes. It must reach people all over the world; that everyone
should worship Allah Ta’ala and gain salvation in the Hereafter. They left
their homes; traversed all kinds of land and terrain and crossed the oceans.
With sacrifice, hardship and difficulty, they took the message of the Deen of
Allah Ta’ala to Africa, Europe, China and different parts of the world. Your
fore-fathers have done a great Ihsaan upon us, that they brought the Deen to
us. They were the means of the light of Imaan entering the hearts of our
fore-fathers, which then became a great blessing for us; that today we are the
reciters of the Kalimah. What we have come here for – is to revive that Deen of
<b>ours</b>. We seek your assistance and help because you are from that blessed
progeny. You also teach us this Deen, and from the little that we have learnt,
from your noble fore-fathers, we will share it again with you. You can correct
us if you think we are making a mistake.</span></i><span style="font-family: "gentium book basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "gentium book basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 115%;">On another level, <b><i>sometimes</i></b>, our Dawah to the indigenous
communities, here, is because: <i>“If only they become Muslim, we will be
protected.”</i> – because they are in the majority. This motive is not correct.
In this kind of Da’wah, we are seeking to establish our own security... whereas
we have to be seeking the pleasure of Allah Ta’ala. We should thus rectify our
intentions. Invite so that others bring Imaan in Allah Ta’ala and become
successful in both worlds. This is true Fikr (concern), which must be followed
by the correct effort and work, within the parameters of Deen and under the
guidance of the ‘Ulama-e-Haq.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "gentium book basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 115%;">Hazrat Maulana Shabeer Ahmad Usmani
Rahmatullahi ‘alayh, the author of Tafseer Usmani, had presented an invaluable
and extremely effective piece of advice, which we should keep before us when
undertaking Ta’leem, Tabligh or ‘Amr bil Ma’roof and Nahy anil Munkar.’</span><sup><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "gentium book basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 115%;">[1]</span></sup><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "gentium book basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 115%;"> Hazrat
Maulana (Rahmatullahi ‘alayh) said that the words of advice which we share with
others should be <b>true</b>, the intention and motive behind the advice
tendered should also be <b>true</b>, and the manner and approach should also be
<b>true</b>. This will then draw positive results.</span><span style="font-family: "gentium book basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"></span></div>

our hearts and intentions. In whichever field of Deen we serve, we must invite
to Allah Ta’ala with sincerity, truth and humility. May Allah Ta’ala grant us
these qualities, use us for the Khidmah of Deen, forgive our shortcomings and
make our humble efforts a means of khayr. </span><br />

scourge, which is also a sign of Qiyamah, is Zina (fornication and adultery).
For many, socialising with the opposite gender has become a norm, despite it
being a clear prohibition in Islam. Grave sins such as lustful glances,
pornography, courting before marriage, fornication, adultery, abortion, etc.
have become so common. Hazrat Maulana Yunus Patel Saheb (Rahmatullahi
'alayh) would discuss these weaknesses and spell out their harms – so that
the heart can be purified of false love and the heart’s attention can be
re-directed to the Only True Beloved, Allah Ta’ala.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 115%;">In the Seerah of Rasulullah (Sallallaahu ‘alayhi wasallam), we read the beautiful experience and miraculous journey of the Mi’raj. The journey from
Makkah Shareef to Baitul Muqqaddas (Jerusalem) is known as Isra and the
miraculous journey to the seven heavens and beyond is known as the Mi’raj. …Whilst
every aspect of the Isra and Mi’raj offers great lessons, there is a lesson
that comes to mind considering these times that we live in and the
responsibilities and the trust that devolves upon those who have knowledge of
Deen and who are in a position where they are able to influence the people.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

(Sallallaahu ‘alayhi wasallam) related that during this journey he (Sallallaahu

Masjid-al-Aqsa and others say it was in the heavens, near Sidratul Muntahah. When
Rasulullah (Sallallaahu ‘alayhi wasallam) accepted the milk, Hazrat Jibra’eel
(Alaihis Salaam) said: <b>“You

Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanwi (Rahmatullahi ‘alayh) explained that like milk
provides nourishment and serves as a food and drink, similarly, the Deen of
Islam offers complete spiritual nourishment.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

by practically implementing the Commandments of Allah Ta’ala and keeping clear
of all the Prohibitions of Allah Ta’ala. Now, if the Scholars are going to go in
the direction of Jahannum, then there will be a number of people who will
follow them and who will say to Allah Ta’ala on the Day of Judgment: <i>“Maulana Saheb, Qari Saheb, Mufti Saheb, Haji

<span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 115%;">Our Akaabir always considered that their actions must not affect the
Deen in any way. They were very particular about their actions. They looked at
the bigger picture and did not compromise on Deen. As Scholars, there has to be concern for the
safety of the Ummah and of humanity at large. We should think of Rasulullah (Sallallaahu 'alayhi wasallam)'s deep concern for the Ummah, his tears for the Ummah, and his repeated Dua for: <i>"Ummati, Ummati" <o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.1pt; line-height: 115%;">The incident of Isra and Mi’raj is very clear: Had Rasulullah (Sallallaahu
‘alayhi wasallam) adopted that one single action, the Ummah would have gone
astray. Those who hold some kind of influence should realise that their
actions can ultimately “make” this Ummah or “break” this Ummah. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

more sins. …Like a volcano erupts and
spews out rocks, gases, ash and lava, which cause great harm and destruction,
photography has led to an eruption of Fitan and spews out immodesty,
obscenity and a host of other evils. There is no doubt that photography plays
a key role in the destruction of man’s spirituality, modesty and morality. I
receive so many emails and letters, and from the correspondence, it is clear
that many, many people – young and old – are caught up in pornography and other sins, stemming from photography. …I have mentioned previously
that the porn- industry and filthy films are all based on pictures. This gives
rise to rape, incest, child porn and other vices. <b>Islam cuts at the

like seasonal rain and passed by. This rain did not water the plants and crops
- <b>it showered upon the hearts of the Believers</b>. …It is sad, but true, that the
hearts of the majority of Muslims were stricken with spiritual drought and
spiritual decadence. It was a drought caused by excessive indulgence in
un-Islamic activities, immoral behaviour, unjust actions, unfair dealings and
so forth. <b>…Drought caused by lack of rain destroys crops - drought
caused by lack of piety, lack of fear of Allah Ta’ala and lack of Allah
Consciousness destroys the SPIRITUALITY of the heart.</b><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #0d0e2d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The National and international
position of the Muslim communities is something we are all acquainted with.
Muslims are lamenting the loss of lives, destruction of property, oppression,
tyranny, injustice and a host of other problems afflicting the Muslims
all over the world. They are questioning as to why the promised help of Allah
Ta’ala, to the Believers, is nowhere in sight. …However, just one glance into
the lifestyles of the overwhelming majority of the Muslims is sufficient to
answer the question. Millions of Muslims do not have much to their credit
besides Muslim names.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

strange and peculiar, we find in the quest for peace, nations of the world are
waging wars of devastation and destruction against each other. World
governments look towards war as the solution for peace. Greed and selfishness
are considered as the key to the success of man. ...In the clamour for justice,
injustice towers over and above, in all its ugliness. <b>Instead of peace,
freedom, success and justice, man finds himself shackled under the yoke of more

legislation, the imposition of fines and jail sentences, cannot and will not
solve problems that face mankind. The only sure deterrent to crimes of all
kinds, <b>is firm conviction and belief in our Creator, a life hereafter

<span style="color: #0d0e2d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The obligation of fasting in the
month of Ramadaan for the Believers, men and women, who are sane and healthy,
is a clear message to mankind that <b>unrestricted indulgence in
fulfilling the desires of one's base or animal self has to be curbed for some
time, to give an upliftment to one's spiritual self. </b>The object of
fasting, as described in the Holy Qur’aan, is <b>“so that you may guard
against evil.”</b><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #0d0e2d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">During the auspicious month of
Ramadan, a fasting person abstains from food, drink and sexual relations from
dawn until sunset, in obedience to the command of his creator. The month is a
training whereby the Believer's trait of God-conscious is nurtured. <b>Even
though he may be in place of total privacy and seclusion, on the hottest day of
the year, he does not submit to the temptation of sipping even a few drops of
water for he is convinced that he cannot evade the sight of the All-Observing
Almighty.</b><o:p></o:p></span></div>

become a reality in the society of Muslims who have observed the fasts of
Ramadaan and has advanced our piety, then mankind would see a society in which
every person becomes the guardian of the respect, honour, property and
possessions of others; a society in which the needy, the poor, the destitute,
and the under-privileged are taken cared for; a society in which honesty,
chastity, nobility, kindness, compassion, mercy and forgiveness shine forth
like the midday sun; a society in which no harm is caused to any human or
animal without a just reason; and a society in which material progress does not
bring about a moral collapse.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

fasting period and is a day of joy and thanksgiving, but despite being a day of
celebration, the day commences with an additional prayer after sunrise,
reminding the believers that the object of fasting must be fully borne in mind
even after Ramadan. A believer must be aware of the fact that he was made to
observe the fast to become God-conscious, pious and self-restraining. His
natural inclinations to eating, drinking and fulfilling his sexual passions
were curbed for a month from dawn to sunset – <b>the willpower to abstain
from all evil and totally submit himself to the will of the Creator should now

the Muslim community to bring about a total transformation in all spheres of
their lives. <b>Eid and the days to follow are opportunities to demonstrate
the moral upliftment and spiritual elevation gained through fasting by showing
compassion, mercy and kindness towards the creation of the Almighty.</b><o:p></o:p></span></div>

community best wishes for a happy Eid, I make a humble appeal to every Muslim
brother and sister to keep the spirit of fasting alive – <b>Let obedience
of Allah Ta'ala shine forth from this day forward. Let the rest of mankind observe
the effect that fasting has in changing the outlook of a believing Muslim. Let
the world observe a community free from all sins, crime and vice and let us be
an example which is worthy of emulation and of others accepting Islam.</b><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #0d0e2d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Allah
Ta’ala’s love for His Messenger Muhammad (<u>S</u>allallaahu ‘alayhi wa-Sallam)
is clearly evident and manifest in many Aayaat (verses) of the Qur`aan Shareef.
Additionally, whilst other Ambiyaa (Alayhimus Salaam) were gifted with
exclusive titles, it was Rasulullah (<u>S</u>allallaahu ‘alayhi wa-Sallam)
alone, whose title was <b><i>“Habibullah”</i></b><i> </i> (The
Beloved of Allah Ta'ala).</span><span style="color: #0d0e2d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #0d0e2d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Due to this
Divine love for Sayyidina Muhammad (<u>S</u>allallaahu ‘alayhi wa-Sallam), his
Ummah is recipient to special mercy, blessings and favours from Allah Ta’ala.
It is only due to our connection and association with Nabi-e-Akram (<u>S</u>allallaahu
‘alayhi wa-Sallam) that Allah Ta’ala has honoured us above all people.</span><span style="color: #0d0e2d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #0d0e2d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Amongst many
privileges, one Divine Mark of Distinction that has been granted to us, is the
great privilege of being <b><i>“Ummate Marhooma”</i></b> – The Ummah
upon whom Mercy is shown.</span><span style="color: #0d0e2d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #0d0e2d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The
explanation of this noble title, <i>“Ummate Marhooma”</i> is that
forgiveness is secured and mercy is attained through our sicknesses, our
hardships and other tribulations; through the Eesale Sawaab that people convey
to us after our demise, and through blessed days and nights such as are found
in Ramadaan, and other special days and nights outside Ramadaan (The first 10
nights and days of Zul Hijjah, the nights of Eid, the 10<sup>th</sup> of
Muharram, etc.), whereby we can easily gain forgiveness. </span><span style="color: #0d0e2d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 1.0cm; margin-right: 21.2pt; margin-top: 0cm; tab-stops: 16.0cm; text-align: justify;">

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #0d0e2d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The most
special and most blessed of all nights is the Night of “QADR”. Laylatul Qadr is
a night singled out by Allah Ta’ala, who granted it such magnificent virtues
and such greatness that surpasses all other nights. The fact that Allah Ta’ala
has gifted this Ummah, with this one night – year in and year out – highlights
again the Divine mercy that is extended to this Ummah, as well as the
Graciousness and Kindness of Allah Ta’ala in giving us opportunities to secure
far more in rewards.</span><span style="color: #0d0e2d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 1.0cm; margin-right: 21.2pt; margin-top: 0cm; tab-stops: 16.0cm; text-align: justify;">

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #0d0e2d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">It is
mentioned in Tafseer that one meaning of the word “Qadr” is <i>“greatness,
honour, dignity”</i> and this is what the night of Qadr is – a night of
greatness. It is also stated that the night is called so, because a person
becomes a man of honour and dignity on account of his sincere repentance, and
the noble deeds, prayers and supplications he engages in during this night.
Rasulullah (<u>S</u>allallaahu ‘alayhi wa-Sallam) said: <b><i>“Whoever
stands in prayer and worship on the night of Qadr, with complete faith and with
sincere hope of gaining reward, all his previous sins are forgiven.”</i></b></span><span style="color: #0d0e2d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 1.0cm; margin-right: 21.2pt; margin-top: 0cm; tab-stops: 16.0cm; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 1.0cm; margin-right: 21.2pt; margin-top: 0cm; tab-stops: 16.0cm; text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 1.0cm; margin-right: 21.2pt; margin-top: 0cm; tab-stops: 16.0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #0d0e2d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><i>“Qadr” </i>also
means “pre-destination” and we find that this is also a night where the
destinies of people are assigned to respective Angels in regard to life, death,
sustenance, rain, and so forth – all of which will come to pass for the year
that will follow.</span><span style="color: #0d0e2d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 1.0cm; margin-right: 21.2pt; margin-top: 0cm; tab-stops: 16.0cm; text-align: justify;">

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #0d0e2d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Drawing from
the different narrations, it becomes clear that the Night of Qadr should be
sought in the last 10 nights of Ramadaan, specifically the odd nights. Its
greatness and merit is described in the Speech of Allah Ta’ala, wherein it is
stated that worship in this night surpasses the worship of 1000 months. Worship
includes Salaah, Tilawah (recitation) of the Qur`aan Shareef, Zikrullah, Dua,
etc.</span><span style="color: #0d0e2d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

also a night for sincere repentance as attested by a narration, wherein Hazrat

prayer she should engage in if she finds Laylatul Qadr and Rasulullah (<u>S</u>allallaahu

<span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">For many
years, without fail, I have been giving an example in the month of Ramadaan,
that at the end of a very, very hot and long day of Summer, a person is sitting
at the Dastarkhaan, close to the time of Iftaar, waiting patiently to open his
fast. There is just 3 minutes left for the setting of the sun when he is told: <i>“Eat!…What difference will it make if you
break your fast now? What’s another 2 or 3 minutes? ... You have already stayed
away from food and drink for almost 15 – 16 hours.”<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 21.3pt; margin-right: 11.85pt; margin-top: 0cm; tab-stops: 21.3pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 21.3pt; margin-right: 11.85pt; margin-top: 0cm; tab-stops: 21.3pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 21.3pt; margin-right: 11.85pt; margin-top: 0cm; tab-stops: 21.3pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Even if
the person happens to be the weakest Muslim, i.e. in respect to obeying Allah
Ta’ala, he will respond: <b>“It is the
ruling of the Qur`aan and the Ahadeeth that I break my fast <u>after</u> the
setting of the sun and not before that time. It is the Command of Allah Ta’ala
and I cannot disobey Him.”<o:p></o:p></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 21.3pt; margin-right: 11.85pt; margin-top: 0cm; tab-stops: 21.3pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 21.3pt; margin-right: 11.85pt; margin-top: 0cm; tab-stops: 21.3pt; text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The
weakest person’s Imaan becomes so strong at this stage of his fast, that he
will not break his fast. He will refuse to break his fast, even if the world’s
great personalities have to say so.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<b><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Is it not the Command of that same Allah to
correctly discharge our Zakaah, perform Hajj, treat our parents with love and
respect, be faithful to our wives and treat them with compassion (and vice
versa for the wives), be honest in our business dealings and be kind and just
to those under our authority? <o:p></o:p></span></b></div>

<span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Furthermore,
just as it is Allah Ta’ala’s Command to do good deeds; in the same way, <b>to abstain from adultery, fornication,
stealing, gambling, watching Haraam, taking and giving of interest and other
sins are also the same Allah ‘s Commands. <o:p></o:p></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-left: 21.3pt; margin-right: 11.85pt; margin-top: 0cm; tab-stops: 21.3pt; text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt; line-height: 115%;">So we
should not be selective and only show the strength of our Imaan at the time of
breaking fast. It should be in all actions of ours. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">Bismihi Ta’ala</span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">The phrase, <b><i>‘It’s in the
air’</i></b> alludes to the general feeling or expectation of something to
happen in the near future or something which is already present or prevailing.</span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">For the Muslim who reaches the months
of Rajab and Sha`baan, the presence of Ramadaan is keenly sensed and felt. There
is anticipation and expectation. It is near, with each day closing the distance
between us and Ramadaan. Its blessings are <i>‘in the air’</i> – so
to say …just as we have fragrance permeating the atmosphere, infusing the air,
whether of flowers or of Itr or other perfume.</span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">…The stronger the perfume, the
stronger the Itr, the greater the distance its scent travels – so much so, that
even though we may be far, we too get a hint of something special. The same
with a braai – we find the aroma being carried by the wind, over a distance.</span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">…Then what of the sweet fragrance of
Ramadaan?</span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">It <b><u>is</u></b> in the
air. Most definitely.</span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">It is just that our “receivers” are
not working well. …If there is a transmitter and there is transmission, but our
receiver is not working, we will not pick up transmission. Similarly, if our
sinuses are clogged, we will not smell the fragrance.</span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">

<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">When it comes to the month of
Sha`baan – especially from the middle of Sha`baan onwards, the excitement of
the Auliya-Allah, the pious and the righteous knows no bounds and limits. They
have understood the virtue and significance of Sha`baan because it heralds the
coming of Ramadaan, the guest of distinction and greatness. …They have been
waiting for the Mubarak month of Ramadaan, and Sha`baan signifies the final
countdown to its arrival. They are enthusiastic and eager just to see and meet
the month of Ramadaan, and thus we find the beautiful Masnoon dua : <b>‘O
Allah, bless us in Rajab and Sha’baan and grant us life to see Ramadaan.’</b></span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">Whilst they enjoy and make the most
of the blessings of Sha`baan, it is unfortunate that the majority are
neglectful, if not ignorant of its blessings.</span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">

<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">Nabi (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wassallam)
said, <b>“Sha`baan is a month between Rajab and Ramadaan which is
neglected by many people. And it is a month in which an account of deeds
is presented before the Lord of the Universe, so I wish that my deeds be
presented at a time when I am in a state of fasting.” <sup>[1]</sup></b></span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">We also find in this blessed month,
the night of Bara`ah : A Favour and Bounty of Allah Ta’ala Who, through this
night, makes it easy for us to prepare for Ramadaan.</span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">First, Allah Ta’ala gives us the 15<sup>th</sup> night
of Sha`baan – an exclusive opportunity for Taubah, Rujoo Ilallah, Dua and other
Ibaadah… and then He gives us an entire month saturated with opportunities to
secure His Pleasure. He gives us Ramadaan. Alhamdulillah.</span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">The following analogy came to my mind
: That the Ibaadah of the 15<sup>th</sup> night of Sha`baan is similar to
how a person does a re-paint of his house.</span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">When a person wants to paint his
house, what does he do if the old paint is flaking, if the old paint is peeling
and falling off? Would he just take the new paint and apply a fresh coat on top
of all the old, flaking paint? …No.</span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">The person firsts scrapes off all the
old paint. After doing this, he applies the new paint. </span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">The night of Bara`ah is akin to
scraping off the “old paint”. Allah Ta’ala gives us this blessed and auspicious
night so that we scrape off all the old paint and all the dirt of malice, of
greed, of pride, of anger and of other bad and evil traits, which have spoilt
the beauty of our hearts and which have worn out the shine of our hearts, and
through which we have lost the colour of Divine Love which coated our hearts.</span></b><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">…Thus, if we are not on talking terms
with our family members, or have cut off ties with parents or vice versa, or
have been disobedient to parents, or if there is anyone taking some kind of
intoxicant, or engaging in some form of shirk, or is harbouring malice and
jealousy, or engaging in any form of immorality and disobedience – then the opportunity
to rid the heart of its evil, to clean it and purify it, to paint it in the dye
of Allah Ta’ala’s Love, to beautify it with the Noor of sincere repentance and
the Remembrance of Allah Ta’ala is presented to us in the form of the 15<sup>th</sup> night
of Sha`baan.</span></b><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">…Very much like the scraping of the
old paint … with a re-coat of fresh ‘paint’ before the month of Ramadaan. <b>We
apply the new coat so that it begins to shine in advance of Ramadaan and
increases in its shine and beauty with each passing day of Ramadaan.</b></span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">

<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">So Allah Ta’ala gives us this night,
in preparation for the coming month of Ramadaan. And most of us are acquainted
with the merits of this night : That it is a night for forgiveness of
sins, a night in which Allah Ta’ala’s Mercy descends.</span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">From our side, we should maximise on
the wonderful bounties found in this night, by engaging ourselves in Ibaadah,
in Dua and in Istighfaar.</span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">

<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">There is no hard and fast rule as to
what to read and how to occupy ourselves in this night. In reality, it is spending
the time in diverse Ibaadah; whatever our hearts incline to – some recitation
of Qur`aan Shareef and Zikrullah, together with sincere Taubah, abundant
Istighfaar, and deep-hearted Dua. Sleep for a little while and try and get up
for the Tahajjud Salaah and engage in Dua.</span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">…There is no reason to feel
disappointed if the person is working the entire day and does not then have the
capacity to remain awake for most of the night… to whatever extent, the person
makes an effort in this night.</span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13.0pt;">My purpose was just to highlight one
or two points – the main point being that irrespective of how far we may have
distanced ourselves from Allah Ta’ala, if we turn to Allah Ta’ala, we make <b><i>“I'tiraaf-
e- qusoor”</i></b> – acknowledge our weakness, our sins…</span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

continue with the same evils the very next day, how will any Noor remain in the
heart? …Then, when Ramadaan does arrive, the person will be empty in his heart,
and if he continues in the same direction of sins, he will not be in the right

Rahmah and Barakah of Ramadaan.</span><span style="font-family: "gentium basic"; font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

consider our present condition, in the light of these commentaries, we will
find that we are in the midst of Fasaad. All around us – and sometimes, even
within us – there is this Fasaad. If, in these times, we hold fast onto Deen
and the noble Sunnah, then the rewards are exceptional; the rewards are very,
very great – because the Mujahadah (striving) and effort in practising upon
Deen is much more, due to the environment of Fasaad and Fitan.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

and easy, with minimum expense. Unfortunately, we are so carried away by the
concept of a fantasy, glamourous, dazzling and fairy-tale wedding that we
choose to follow in the way of the disbelievers, and have made our own weddings,
extremely costly, lavish and elaborate – far from what is Sunnah and far from

Barakaat, Rahmah and rewards that accompany the Sunnah.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
