By Gufraan , Author is an Educationist based out of Pune. The Ideal Muslim society: Hazrat Umar (r.a.) period 's society was an ideal. His was a society in which true freedom existed.  Hazrat Umar (r.a.) did not pray in the church in Jerusalem simply because he did not want to give the later Muslims an excuse to take the church. In the History of Muslim civilization we see that even slaves have risen to high positions in the government as well as become great scholars of their era. Such an equal civilization & pure system of belief naturally spread to distant lands at an astonishing pace. In some places it spread through businessmen landing on Indian shores of Malabar and the south-east Asian countries & in some places it spread through brilliant scholars & great sufi saints who displayed remarkable nobility & integrity of character. Infact the Golden age between 700 AD & 1500 AD was a civilization which established an equitable, egalitarian, prosperous, to...

"We are living and experiencing a time when truth is cast as falsehood, and lies are presented as truth. We live in societies where we are having to face some serious challenges in both our internal conscience and the environment around us. During this difficult time, and as ‘Ashuraa is upon us, I am reminded of the famous story of Musa (AS). Allah (ﷻ) reminds us of a man who faced the greatest of tyrants, the harshest of conditions, and the most oppressive of regimes. Despite these extreme circumstance he was resilient, he did not give up, nor did he lose hope. He knew with certainty, the same way Allah (ﷻ) had guided him through everything else he faced in life, He would continue to pave a path for him. In the Qur’an Allah (ﷻ) describes the scene: And when the two companies saw one another, the companions of Musa said, “Indeed, we are to be overtaken!” [Musa] said, “No! Indeed, with me is my Lord; He will guide me.” Then We ...

*I did not marry you to play with you* 😭😭 They got married after a beautiful love story, and after two weeks the husband woke up to go to work. He went to the bathroom to wash his face, and in the mirror he saw his face full of drawings of different colors. His wife was young, childish, and had an innocent heart. She scribbled on his face as he was sleeping, and she did so with a great love, that they would laugh about it in the morning. The husband washed his face while upset, and went to the kitchen to drink the coffee which he usually does every morning. He did not find the coffee, and he became more upset, and went to her. She smiled because she thought he would laugh at her, and say something romantic. But he slapped her until she fell down, and yelled at her saying: "I did not marry you to play with you, I am a man and not a young child. I married you to start a family to have children, to be a man in the eyes of everyone. Do you want to live a ...

THIS WAS DELIVERED BY SHAYKH AKRAM NADWI IN A CONFERENCE AT THE AZHAR UNIVERSITY, CAIRO. DEPT OF ISLAMIC PSYCHOLOGY EDUCATION. - The purpose of marriage is to have children and then educate them to worship Allah SWT. - When a child is born, a mother and father are also born. - The personal development of the parents is just as important as that of the child. This point is often overlooked. - Modern education seeks to incorporate people into the economy - to make money. Islamic education seeks to train people to become 'good' individuals, in terms of their character etc. 'Good' meaning to prepare for the Hereafter. - Your children, before they are your children, they are the slaves of Allah. His rights over them precede your rights. - Your duty is to teach them and provide them guidance - not to make them pious. You will be questioned whether you taught them right or not. - Parents need to realise they too are slaves of Allah. His rights over them precede their...
