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.

While meeting with our brothers and sisters, expecting them to submit to Allah alone, we often unfortunately encounter a very different scenario. 
 
We find 'devout' Muslims arguing about the Quran, but after a more detailed discussion it turns out that they have never read the Quran at all.  We find people who dress traditionally, many are also seniors and make regular dua's.  Yet, a discussion based purely on the Quran is like Greek to them.  Same story with many reverts.  Getting serious about Faith and implementing it in their daily lives actually takes them along diverse paths with little or no conformity with the Glorious Quran.
 

It's mind boggling that how can any man or woman claim to be a pious Muslim and yet not having read the Quran? .. Or, having read it without grasping a word, like speech being taught to a parrot?  How can anyone insist on being a devout Muslim when it is plain as bright daylight that all they are following is the 'sunnah'?  Not just that, but their lack of Quranic interest & knowledge has also caused the disaster of deriving Quranic interpretations from the contents of the "sunnah."  Thus, many of us seek with our eyes how a Muslim must live, that is the "sunnah" and yet we completely disregard the Word of Allah. 
 
The acceptance of the law that the "sunnah" co-exists with the Noble Quran can either be described as an annexation or an intentional willingness to accept contradiction in Faith.  In both cases it reflects a severe lack of human intellect and will-power.
 
Though "sunnah" is a lifestyle, it evades the concept of submitting to Allah alone.  That's the sad paradox.   Sunnah basially tells us to make the same blunder which the Jews and Christians made aforetime.  Those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it.
 
Our Prophet Mohammed (pbuh) was a very great and pious man.  His character was unique and exemplary.  The path of the Quran was the only one he followed meticulously.  He surely did NOT deserve a book of chinese whispers to be called "his sunnah" written down some 200 years after his death that constantly contradicts the Glorious Quran.

Subhan'Allah, a very articulate and comprehensive presentation of a common mistake that has completely ruined our beautiful Faith of Islam.  How hurt our dear Prophet (SAW) would be if he saw the ummah now  Sad   The tragedy caused by Hadith is too widespread.
