Oh and if I have time, roti too that I donthave to make by hand:) Is there a place to get this in Boston? Only place I can think of is maybe Trader Joe's but I wanted to check before I wasted my time to go there and find nothing:( Thanks

  • Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) came to her father (may Allah's peace & blessings be upon him, his family & companions) (after she was married) and asked him for servants (to help with her housework). The Prophet (pbuh) said, 'Shall I not inform you of something that is better for you than a servant? Recite: 'Subhanallah (Glory be to Allah) thirty-three times, Al-hamdulillah (Praise be to Allah) thirty-three times, and Allahu Akbar (Allah is Great) thirty-four times before you go to bed'.

  • Mehbooba Poem Little stars up in the sky you light the heavens way up high. Allah has placed you there to shine you are amongst His wondrous signs. Big yellow moon with silvery light you shine for travelers in the night remember how once you split in two obeying our Prophet for all to view. Then as your term has been ordained your luster fades and starts to wain, then you become a crescent small at other times you're not there at all! www.davidmalin.com

 

  • The most basic and essential attribute of a Muslim Marriage is the Common Faith that binds the Couple. Since Islam is a Way of Life and not just a Religion confined to weekly worship it becomes an integral part of a Muslim's life. The frame of reference shared by the couple eases communication and sharing of values which is not possible in an interfaith marriage. It is highly recommended that faith play an important role in the developing a loving relationship. For example, as the Prophet Muhammad (pea... Read More

  • Shaving my head was the most powerful thing I`ve ever done. It was like transforming myself ... When I look in the mirror before I go to school, I hardly recognize myself. Some mornings I even say, "Wait-who is that bald girl?" It's a a very strange sensation. Truthfully? It's brutal. My family and I are French Muslims. There are about 5 million Muslims here in France, a little less than 10 percent of the population, and Islam is the second largest religion in the country. My parents are originally fro...

Lewis (Soufi Ahmed Murad Chisti): C'est tout ? fait vrai, mais il y a un sens plus profond. Quand quelqu'un voulu blesser Bouddha, il refusa d'accepter cette blessure, la classant comme un don qui est soit acceptable ou non, qui quand refus?, sera rendu au donneur.

The same idea is in Christ's "Resist not evil." Refusing to accept evil as evil, declining to recognize... Read More
