November 01, 2023, 03:44:32 pm Zainab_M: Allahhuma ameen .. ameen.
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.

 BismEm


Would anyone know why Allah Almighty mentions the star "sirius" in the Noble Quran?

"And that He it is Who is the Rab of Sirius;"  53:49

"Sirius" is the name of the brightest star in the sky and second largest to the sun.  It's also known as the Dog Star (I don't know why).  Also, this star is one of the closest to Earth.  Because of its large size and proximity it can be seen quite clearly with telescopes. 

In ancient times, this star attracted the attention of idolaters.  It was worshipped by Egyptians, Greeks, Romans and pagan Arabs.

In Verse 53:49, Allah Almighty is conveying the message that He is the Creator, Nourisher and Cherisher of everything in the Earth and the heavens, including the largest of stars like Sirius.  Therefore, Allah Almighty commands that people must worship Him Who has created all these heavenly bodies, and they must not worship these heavenly bodies which are created by Him.

Very well explained Sister Heba. 

As the phrase goes, "why wish upon a star when you can pray to the One Who created it"?

So very correct.   

The human practice of admiring the created instead of its Creator is a disease that is guidance deficient.

Well said.   Kufari = guidance deficiency.
