Dr Robert Crane now a Pious Muslim named as Farooq Abdul Haq- A Phd in International law, a US Preseident's Ex Advisor, to a Pious Muslim story:

Former US President Richard Nixon’s adviser is Robert Crane.

He holds: Doctorate in Public Law.

• PhD in International Law.

• President of the Harvard Society of International Law.

He later became President Nixon's foreign affairs adviser.

He was also the Deputy Director of the US National Security Council.

• He is considered an expert in Political Affairs in the United States.

• He is founder of the Center for Civilization and Modernization in the United States.

He speaks fluently in six living languages.

What's the story?

One day President Nixon wanted to read about "Islamic Principles and Rules", so he asked CIA to prepare a research paper on the subject for him.

Assigned CIA cadre wrote a detail research paper and submitted to President Nixon.

But Nixon felt the paper was a bit lengthy and detailed. So he asked his adviser, Robert Crane, to read and summarize the article.

Robert read the article and summarized it for the president, but the contents of the article forced Robert to do more research on Islam. So he attended Islamic seminars and conferences to learn more about the subject.

Then came the day when ROBERT Crane converted to Islam, inspired by the Islamic teachings. Word of his conversion spread throughout the USA.

After converting to Islam, he changed his Islamic name to "Farooq Abdul Haq".

Explaining the reason for converting to Islam, he says:

As a law student, I found all the laws in Islam that I studied.

I studied law at Harvard University for 3 years but I never found the word "justice" in their law, whereas

I found this word frequently in Islam.

He converted to Islam in 1981 and named himself "Farooq" after Second Caliph Omar Farooq, who was the Imam of Justice after demise of Holy Prophet (PBUH)

He said: "Once we were having a legal debate. A professor of Jewish law was also with us. When the Jewish Professors demeanor became excessive, I decided to subdue him.

I asked him: Do you know the extent of Inheritance Law in the US Constitution?

He said: Yes, he has more than eight volumes.

I said: If I bring you a Law of Inheritance which is not more than ten lines, will you believe that Islam is a true religion?

He said: It is not possible that such a long and wide law of inheritance can be summed up in just ten lines ...

I took the verses of inheritance from the Holy Quran and presented it to him.

A few days later he came to me and said: It is not possible for a human mind to cover all its close relatives so wide that it leaves no one behind and then distribute the inheritance among them so justly that didnt oppress anyone ...

Then this Jewish Professor reverted to Islam !!

Dr. Robert Crane (Farooq) is yet alive and kicking at the ripe age of 91 years. He is happily sharing the candles of Islam in America.

May Almighty Allaah light millions of Candles from his Candle!!

The Muslims in India should be like the Franciscans, who, with deep commitment, declared their convictions from the housetops rather than remaining reclusive and withdrawn from public life. That’s what Muslims should do, while eschewing violence.

Rasoolullah's ﷺ Shoes and Leather Socks:

Rasoolullah (ﷺ) wore shoes like sandals or slippers. Rasoolullah (ﷺ) also wore black leather socks and during Wadhu passed his moist hanks over them (made Masah). His shoes had two straps between the toes (Uswah: Mirqaat). There was a strap at the back as well. The Shoes of Rasoolullah (ﷺ) were one span and two fingers long and 7 fingers wide; there was a space of two fingers between the two straps at the toe end (Uswah) Rasoolullah (ﷺ)used to wear shoes made of leather that was smooth after the removal of the animal hair, and after wadhu He would place his feet into them because they were pure and made in such a way that his toes would thouch the ground. (Uswah) Rasoolullah (ﷺ) also wore shoes made of smooth leather. (Mishkaat) Rasoolullah (ﷺ) would would grip his shoes with his left thumb and index finger. (Shamaail Tirmidhi) Hazrat Anas (Radiallahhu’ anhu) narrates that from the sunnah is that one should remove his shoes and place them to the left side when sitting. (Mishkaat) Sourc...

Quran Juz 14 – Rubama - Summary:

Quran Juz 14 – Rubama Summary Join Us: https://chat.whatsapp.com/EwGX2NFn95O2Bo92HkyyiI • Surah Hijr: This Juz starts with Surah Hijr (the chapter’s first verse is in Juz 13 though), which talks about the people living in the Valley of Hijr (Hegra) i.e. the Tribe of Thamud. • This brief chapter is uniquely themed at the foundational principles of Islam: Tawheed (Oneness of Allah), Risalah (messengership), and the Hereafter. • Allah tells Prophet Muhammed ﷺ that though the disbelievers do not wish to accept Islam, a time will come when they wish they should have accepted it. • As per a hadith, this will happen when they’ll see some Muslims too in Hell, undergoing a punishment. The disbelievers who knew them in life one earth will then taunt them and say that they were Muslims and how come they are in Hell. • However, at the completion of the Muslims’ punishment tenure, Allah will place them in the Heaven. Seeing it, the disbelievers will wish that they should have accepte...

Islam is overall a religion of perseverance and tolerance. In short a religion of patience:

- July 29 2021 (The original speech was in urdu, after that it is translated into English text by Mohsin sir) Surah Al kahf. Meaning of patience explained: *By famous scholar of Islam Ibn Ul Qayyim in his book "Patience and Gratitude."* "It means stronger common sense and religious motives." *Patience has a different role in different aspects.* * When controlling sexual desires it's called honor (waqaar). *When restraining greed it's self control(tahammul) *When used in anger management it's forbearance (bardaashth). *When refraining from haste and hurry it's gracefulness (Shaistaa). *When refraining from running away it's courage (bahaduri). *When avoiding revenge/retaliation it's forgiveness (Maafi). *When refraining from stinginess (kanjoosi) it's generosity (Sakhawath). Islam is overall a religion of perseverance and tolerance. In short a religion of patience. Being created with a mixture of fire, water, mud and air, certain fea...

Discipline is not oppression, it is love in action:

- *The Perils of Pampering: Raising Disciplined, God-Conscious Children* In a world that glorifies instant gratification, indulgence, and materialism, we risk raising a generation that lacks resilience, respect, and responsibility. The saying, *"A pampered child becomes a spoiled adult,"* holds profound truth. If we fail to discipline our children today, we may find ourselves helplessly watching them struggle tomorrow or worse, witnessing them turn into entitled, inconsiderate adults. *Discipline is not oppression, it is love in action*. It is the framework that shapes a child’s character, teaching them that life does not always bend to their will. If we refuse to instill these values at home, the world will teach them often in ways we would never approve of. Islam places immense emphasis on disciplined upbringing. The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said: > *"Command your children to pray at the age of seven, and discipline them for it at t...

The moment we realize that everything happens by the will of Allaah, all our worries begin to fade away:

- (external source) 🌷 *Whatever Allaah does......it's for our best*🌷 When my daughter was 2 years old, she loved to play with the water in the toilet bowl. Yes, that's right.... *the toilet bowl!!* Yuck!! That's nasty...you would say!! But to *her*, that was the *delight of the day!* Splish...splash! To her innocent mind, there was nothing like it! And so when I would prevent her from playing with it, she would scream and cry and wouldn't want to stop. She didn't understand how harmful that was for her. In her little brain, I took away something that she really enjoyed. And when I would take her to the doctor to have her immunization shots, she wouldn't understand that either. She would *howl* at the top of her lungs at the first sight of the needle and would run the other way. It would take two of us just to hold her down! To her, it was nothing but *torture*! Her innocent little mind...

Before the Sadaqa reaches the one who needs it, it reaches the hands of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’alah first:

- *A true story* Let me tell you a story about a teacher This teacher was trying to collect money from other teachers to furnish the Musallah (prayer room) of the school and fix an AC unit. She said: I never gave up; I used to talk to the teachers every day and remind them of the great reward of this deed. I was collecting bit by bit hoping to reach the needed target, it took me almost a month. One day one of my colleagues said: Enough, you are really disturbing us! You keep asking all the time. I said: WAllahi it’s a great cause and it is the path to Jannah in shaa Allah, give anything even if it’s one Riyal. She said if I give you a Riyal would you leave us alone. I answered: Yes, in shaa Allah. She then took a Riyal from her handbag and threw it at me! The teacher who was collecting the money says: I completed collection from my family and friends and Alhamdulilah I managed to collect what I thought would be enough to furnish the Musallah and buy the AC unit. Then she says: WAl...
