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.

Allah Almighty bless you dear Sister for putting up such an important and comprehensive piece despite your very busy schedule.  It's an excellent wrap-up of the Hasan al-Malki post, the link of which you also attached.

For readers information, Verses 92 to 94 of Surah Al-Anbiya (Chapter 21) is also worth quoting:

"Lo! this, your religion, is one religion, and I am your Lord, so worship Me.  And they have broken their religion (into fragments) among them, (yet) all are returning unto Us. Then whoso doeth some good works and is a believer, there will be no rejection of his effort. Lo! We record (it) for him."  (21:92-94). 

These Verses confirm that belief in Allah alone is mandatory for Salvation.  The Verses also assert that sectarianism is a violation.



BismEm

Please know, for a true believer Paradise is not the 'cause' of doing good deeds as blindly and wrongly judged by belligerent secularists.  Rather, Paradise is the reward for them in accordance with the decision of The Almighty and none has the authority nor ability to predict the decisions of Allah Almighty.

This is a very intelligent and needful clarification.  I've heard so many of those puffed-up insolent Islamophobes making light of Islam by jesting about the Muslim worship referring to a Muslim praying or fasting that they're "greedy for Paradise" .... the same way as you might talk about a person working overtime for extra money as the cause for it.  As you put it so correctly, Paradise is the reward NOT cause for believing and doing good deeds.  We believe in Allah and worship Him because we feel so much love for Him in our hearts.  Consequently when a believer does good deeds, at that time they don't have Paradise in their humble hearts, but they have the love and gratitude towards Allah in their hearts.  Thus comes the concept of performing good deeds with the thought of Allah in one's heart which is an indispensable part of belief in Allah.
