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.

In my humble opinion it's important today for us not to generalize matters that were clearly meant only for the Prophet  proem and his then followers.

For instance, let's look at verse 8:20

"O ye who believe! Obey Allah and His messenger, and turn not away from him when ye hear (him speak)."

This above verse is very clearly and directly addressed to those people living in the Prophet's time.  Thus they're being told the importance of obedience to the Prophet   proem

The "scholars" of today must not use such a verse to blame those who don't agree with them.  I thought of mentioning this point as I've observed the imams & ulemas intentionally using this argument for their own benefit.

There are many verses in the Quran that are dictates and laws for all times to come, and also, there are verses that are for specific people and times.  It's really important to make this distinction for a correct interpretation.

Aw kat!  i couldn't agree more.  as zeynab and i were discussing the other day, how many time have we heard our "enlightened" imams and ulemas saying that the Quran says to obey knowledgable people, thus we must obey them.  other than misinterpreting the Quran, it's interesting to note how such people take just one aspect into account.  they're quick at assuming that they are the "knowledgeable ones" but are they really?

yep absolutely but the ummah won't realize this before judgement day!
