November 01, 2023, 03:43:43 pm Ruhi_Rose: Yes .. making lots of dua everyday ..... watching those real life video clips, my face feels wet with tears all the time.  May ALLAH grant the best to these wonderful, brave & steadfast martyrs,  Ameen ya Allah.
November 01, 2023, 03:38:26 pm Zainab_M: Keep praying, praying a lot for Gaza. It's worse than a prison .. it's a concentration camp.  Children as young as 10 or 11 are having to care for their younger siblings ages 2, 3 and 4 becoz many have lost both parents.  It's a very, very, very tearful situation there.
October 26, 2023, 03:40:19 pm N. Truth Seeker: Don't forget to look up MV Blog Zainab's Lounge for our Gaza updates.
October 20, 2023, 04:24:44 pm Zainab_M: Right sister Heba.  Gaza hospital bombing has the fingerprints of Israel all over it.  For Israel this is no big crime.  They have done this and much worse many times in the past and intend to do the same and worse many more times in near future.
October 20, 2023, 04:20:20 pm Heba E. Husseyn: Catching Zionist lies isn't hard. Soon after Gaza hospital bombing killing and maiming hundreds, Israel was quick to accuse Islamic Jihad of a misfired rocket.  That didn't sound plausible because IJ does not have such sophisticated bombing devices.  Zionist lie was fully exposed when anglican archbishop of Jerusalem,Hosam Naoum,  said today that 3 or 4 days prior to boming Israel had warned Gaza hospital to evacuate. Yet CIA claims in its flawed analysis that the rocket did not come from Israel.  But conveniently does not explain how Israel could have known 4 days earlier that a "misfired" rocket from IJ was coming.  Yet on the basis of this flawed & bias analysis of CIA, Biden is comforting Israel he believes Israel didn't do that war crimes bombing.
July 29, 2023, 03:02:07 am Zainab_M: Yesterday was Ashura, Muharram 10, 1444 (July 27, 2023).  Read about this very tragic day and details of the world's greatest 7th century revolutionary: WHO WAS HUSSEIN.
June 28, 2023, 09:48:39 am Zainab_M: Walaikum As Salaam.  This was the first Hajj open to all after the pandemic. It was attended by 2.6 million Muslims.

or The Night Journey and Ascension

As-salaam Alaikum to everyone.  Sorry for the late announcement.  The Night of Isra and Meraj takes place on Thursday, June 8, 2010.  As far as I think, the night for prayers will be the evening of Wednesday / Thursday. 

Please pray to Allah Almighty for blessings on the beloved Prophet Muhammad (SAAW), pray for blessings and forgivness for our loved ones and for ourselves.  Please also make dua for the ones suffering around the world namely the people of Palestine and Kashmir.  May Allah (The Most High) protect those members of our Ummah who seek protection in Him from all evils around the world. 

Here's a brief piece on the Prophet's Night Journey and Ascension written by Idris Tawfiq to give you an idea of this event.  But don't forget to read our post with direct Quranic references, the link of which is provided at the end of this post.



QUOTE:
"During this month of Ragab we remember the extraordinary favour granted to Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), when he was taken by night from Makkah to the furthest Mosque in Jerusalem. The challenge for us, as Muslims, is to learn from this event and allow it to impact on our lives, making us better as a result.

One thing we learn from Prophet Muhammad’s Night Journey is that very often in life we go through periods of trial or great sadness, only to look back on them later and see that they were followed by great happiness or periods of growth. In fact, in English we say that "sunshine follows the rain," don’t we? Well, in the tenth year after the first revelation of the holy Qur’an, Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) suffered greatly. First of all, his uncle Abu Talib died. He had loved the Prophet dearly and had protected him from the attacks and the ridicule of the Quraysh. To Muhammad (pbuh) it was a very severe blow. Then another tragedy followed. His beloved wife, Khadijah, the mother of his children and his friend and companion who had supported him with love and care as Islam grew and spread, died. Muhammad was grief stricken at such a loss.

It was after both of these events that Allah Almighty granted to His Prophet (pbuh) an extraordinary favour. Out of the darkness of loss he was given great joy and a great confirmation of his role as Messenger. In the Qur’an we read in Surat Bani Israel:

"Glory to Allah who did take His Servant for a Journey by night From the Sacred Mosque to the Furthest Mosque whose precincts We did bless, in order that We might show him some of Our Signs. For Allah hears and sees all things." 17:1

In Arabic we call this Al-Israa wal Miraaj (The Night Journey and Ascension). It is one of the most extraordinary events ever to have happened. Allah Almighty took Muhammad (pbuh) on a night journey from the Ka’abah in Makkah to the site of Al Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem and then led him through the seven heavens almost to the very throne of Allah Himself.

Most sources agree that this blessed favour took place on the 27th night of the Islamic month of Ragab.
UNQUOTE:


FOR COMPLETE INFORMATION ON THE EVENT OF ISRA AND MERAJ OR THE PROPHET'S NIGHT JOURNEY AND ASCENSION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INFORMATION IN THE GLORIOUS QURAN ACCURATELY, PLEASE CHECK OUR POST AND THREAD "NO HARDSHIP IN RELIGION / DESCRIPTION OF MERAJ"

May Allah Almighty bless all of you and grant you your prayers, ameen.


PLEASE NOTE:  ACCORDING TO QURANIC INFORMATION, THE JOURNEY OF ISRA AND MERAJ DEFINITELY TOOK PLACE.  BUT ITS DATE AND TIME IS NOT STATED IN THE QURAN.  THE CONCEPT OF 27TH RAJAB AS THE DATE OF ISRA AND MERAJ IS NOT FROM THE QURAN.  THAT DATE IS FROM SOME MAN-WRITTEN SOURCE, MOST LIKELY HADITH.
