A believer's story of a Quarintine:

Assalamu Alaikum

Alhamdhulillah ... By the grace of Almighty Allah, I reached home yesterday by the Delhi... Trivandrum special train. And now I'm under home quarantine for two weeks in the upper flat of our residence. My children and grandchildren are all away, so strict quarantine is made easy. I request you all to make Dhua for ease.

We started for Nizaamudheen on the 11th of February, from Kollam ( Ab. Kareem Sb of Poredam, Thaha Sr of Pattazy and myself ), to spend two months in Nizaamudheen Markaz for Thartheeb. But eventually, as you know, things took a different course.

Insha Allah, it will be exactly 4 months on 11th June, when we finish the ongoing quarantine.

We were put in forced quarantine for 58 days in 4 different quarantine camps in Delhi without periodic tests. The entire Ramadhaan and Edul Fithr was spent in the camps. We had the unique distinction of having total vegitarian food for a full Ramadhaan and even on the Eid day! But in spite of it all, Alhamdhulillah, we were all peaceful and quiet doing all the Aemaals of jamath, like Mashura, Khidhmath, Thaeleem, thaeroofy, gusth, bayan and talk after Fajir. It has been a jamath with a difference.

In the course of our stay in the so called quarantine camp, we were helped by many people including doctors, medical staff, mess boys, policemen and cleaning staff. And the majority among them were Non- Muslim sisters and brothers. An young Sikh lady doctor, whom I did not see, was of utmost help, through mobile phone and she even went out of the way to get our tests done on time, the last time. A Hindu police officer from the intelligence department was very helpful and kind and made phone calls every other day to enquire about our well-being. We could not do anything in return to these good human beings, except that Dhuas were made for their Hidhayath.

Kindness and generosity are learned tendencies which we acquire from our parents and other significant elders in the family and neighborhood, which has no religion. There is good and bad in people of all religious background.

The difference between a Muemin and an ordinary person is that, the Muemin has everything at hand, from the life of Rasulullahi (SA) and the Sahaba (RA ). He just have to follow them! ... that is all... because we have a method of doing ...for anything and everything! But the other person who has not recited the Kalima is devoid of this. And he just follows what he thinks is correct.

Alhamdhulillah.. it is Allah's mercy that he gave us a chance to be born into a family of believers! Our Nabi (SA) said that every baby is born Muslim, and it is his upbringing that converts him into a nonbeliever and mushrik.

So, it is our duty to live with Eamaan and Amalussalihath so that people understand this glorious Dheen of Allah from our life. In contemporary world people have misunderstood Islam, seeing our Dheenlessness. The only remedy is to change our life styles to the original Dheen, imparted to us by our beloved Nabi (SA). This cannot be achieved merely by making a few speeches or publishing a few books. It requires Mujaahadha in the path of Allah ....

Our duty is to see that all people attain Hidhayath and escape the fire. Our forefathers, the Sahaba (RA) were concerned about it and they followed Rasulullahi (SA) in every walk of their lives, as a result people around them attained Hidhayath!

We too have to be doing the same so that these good people around us escape the fire 🔥. .... So, make Niyyath to go in jamath the sooner the obstacles are cleared for four months. And come back to take up the five masjidwar Aemaals sincerely. May the Almighty Allah bless us with the Thoufeeq .... Aameen!

This story is narrated by a person who was in Quarintine for nearly 2 months.

A child doesn’t break loudly. It happens quietly:

- Be honest with yourself for a moment… When you see a child struggling… angry… insecure… constantly seeking attention… do you ever stop and ask, what did they grow up around? Who was present… and who wasn’t? Who listened… and who dismissed? Who loved… and who controlled? The Prophet ﷺ didn’t just speak about worship… he spoke about responsibility. كُلُّكُمْ رَاعٍ وَكُلُّكُمْ مَسْئُولٌ عَنْ رَعِيَّتِهِ Each of you is responsible… and each of you will be questioned. And Allah didn’t say fix the world. He said protect your families. قُوا أَنفُسَكُمْ وَأَهْلِيكُمْ نَارًا This is where it begins. A child doesn’t break loudly. It happens quietly… in the way they start doubting themselves… in the way they stop feeling safe… in the way they look for love in the wrong places. So ask yourself… What is your home producing? Because one day… your child will become someone’s spouse… someone’s parent… someone who shapes the world. And whatever you planted… will not stay inside your home. Source...

The 40 Acts of Paradise:

* Abdallah Bin ‘Amr Bin ‘Āsؓ said that he heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, “There are forty acts, the best of which is giving food, if any are done seeking their reward and believing in their promise, Allah will grant them Paradise by this act.” (Bukhari). Shaykh ‘Abdullah Bin Siddīq al-Ghumārī (d. 1993) wrote a small book enumerating these forty acts : 1. Feeding people in need and without remuneration 2. Removing a harmful object from the road 3. Feeding and watering animals 4. Visiting the sick 5. Befriending and visiting someone only for the sake of God 6. Belief in God and the Final Hour 7. Giving when you have little 8.

Prophet Muhammed ﷺ – The Best Father Ever..

- *Prophet Muhammed ﷺ – The Best Father Ever* Prophet Muhammed ﷺ was a perfect father and a unique grandfather. He was unique in every way. He treated his children and grandchildren with great compassion, and always directed them towards goodness and hereafter. He smiled at his children, loved them, but did not allow them to neglect matters related to the afterlife. In worldly matters he was extremely open, but when it came to maintaining their relationship with God, he was dignifiedly serious. He showed his children how to lead a humane life, and never allowed them to get spoiled. It is narrated in Muslim by Hadrat Anas bin Malik (ra), who served Prophet Muhammed ﷺ for ten continuous years, as saying: “I have never seen a man who was more compassionate to his family members than Prophet Muhammed ﷺ.” All of Prophet Muhammed’s ﷺ sons passed away in infancy – so was Hazrat Ibraheem (ra), his son through Sayyida Maria (ra). When Hazrat Ibraheem passed away, the prophet took in ...

Its all about connection of heart:

There was a Sheikh who was teaching his students Aqeedah (Faith), He taught them 'La ilaha illa Allah' and explained it's meaning to them. The Sheikh loved keeping pets, so he was given a parrot by one of the students as a gift. And with days the Sheikh started to like the parrot. He used to take it to his lessons, until the parrot knew how to say "La ilaha illa Allah", and would utter it day and night. One day the students found their Sheikh crying and sobbing. When they asked him the reason, he told them that a cat attacked the parrot and killed it. They said: "Is this the reason you are crying?"... If you wish we will bring you another parrot better than that one. The Sheikh said: I am not crying because of this... But it made me cry when the cat attacked the parrot. It was shouting and screaming until it died. He used to say la ilaha illa Allah a lot. However, when he was attacked by a cat he forgot to say it. He did nothing but scream...

The Doctor, Medicine and Muslims past 1000 years:

- Muslim science par excellence was the study of medicine. Interest in medicine goes back to the very earliest times. The Prophet himself stated that there was a remedy for every illness, and was aware that some diseases were contagious. The great contribution of the Arabs was to put the study of medicine on a scientific footing and eliminate superstition and harmful folk-practices. Medicine was considered a highly technical calling, and one which required long study and training. Elaborate codes were formulated to regulate the professional conduct of doctors. It was not enough to have a mastery of one’s subject in order to practice medicine. Certain moral qualities were mandatory. Ibn Hazm said that a doctor should be kind, understanding, friendly, good, able to endure insults and adverse criticism; he must keep his hair short, and his fingernails as well; he must wear clean, white clothes and behave with dignity. Before doctors could practice, they had to...
