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.

Exactly Sister.  Sure we should be polite and courteous to them and also help them if they need our assistance in daily life.  Example, if a non-Muslim neighbor is ill and cannot step out of their home, a Muslim neighbor should send him or her food or medicine.   But close friendship at all times by ignoring the huge difference between their ideology and ours can have a very negative impact upon believers among us.  I wish our believing brethren would understand this.  While some do, unfortunately many don't.

Verse 4:144 is another wonderfully straight forward dictate that elucidates the risk we run in befriending disbelievers. 

From what I've observed, there are two aspects that have made Muslims neglectful about this point.  First, the influence of the media.  Second, the immigration culture of Muslims moving to the West en masse.

jazak Allah khair

Sis zeynab main iss baat par bhi ap se muttafiq hon  Smiley  immigration culture of Muslims moving to the West is biggest fact  Sad

indeed Islam has great respect for the mutual rights and duties of neighbours. rights of neighbors are not meant for Muslim neighbours only ,It is a sad fact that many people ( Muslim & non muslim both ) have completely the wrong idea about Islam and Muslims,their only knowledge of islam comes from the TV and newspapers.  It is equally true that they will most probably never open Quran or visit any relaiable mosque . In Following verses  4:36,   13:4,  17:1,   33:60 , Quran advises us to treat neighbours kindly, even if they are not Muslim , In fact as Muslims, we should be the very best of neighbours , And i am glad to tell U   Alhumdulliah  there are very good believers also we know them they do help their non muslims neighbours whenever they need , and they do regular grocery for non muslim elderly neighbours, May Allah reward them ,ameen

May Allah grant all of us correct understanding and  Correct View towards Noble Quran ameen ya Rab

Lo! Allah hath bought from the believers their lives and their wealth because the Garden will be theirs: they shall fight in the way of Allah and shall slay and be slain. It is a promise which is binding on Him in the Torah and the Gospel and the Qur'an. Who fulfilleth His covenant better than Allah? Rejoice then in your bargain that ye have made, for that is the supreme triumph.9:111
