MUHARRAM 1440AH– NEW YEAR Hijri Calender

Asalaamu alaykum Dear readers, we entered the new Islamic year a few days ago, walhamdulillah.

We are now in the first month of Hijri year 1440, Muharram.

**Scroll down for Ashura dates and fasting reminders**

Fasting dates:

9th Muharram- Wed 19-sep-18

10th Muharram – Ashura fasting on Thurs 20-sep-2018

Muharram is a month of great virtue. It is of the four sacred months out of twelve months in the Islamic calendar.

Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“Verily, the number of months with Allaah is twelve months (in a year), so was it ordained by Allaah on the Day when He created the heavens and the earth; of them four are Sacred (i.e. the 1st, the 7th, the 11th and the 12th months of the Islamic calendar). That is the right religion, so wrong not yourselves therein”

[al-Tawbah 9:36]

Allah, The Almighty, has made it a sacred month of great virtue. May He allow us to abstain from sins, to turn to Him in repentance, and to run back to Him with good deeds, for verily, the good deeds remove the evil deeds.

And Allah is The Most Generous. Oh Allah we ask for Your peace and blessings upon The final prophet Muhammad peace be upon him. Ameen ya Rabb al ‘aalameen.

It is encouraged to fast in Muharram, particularly the 10th (Ashoora’), and the preceding day with it (9th/ Tasooaa’). Let us take advantage of these beautiful autumn days, in sha Allah.

It was proven from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) that the best fasting after Ramadaan is fasting in the month of Muharram.

It was narrated that Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The best fasting after Ramadaan is the month of Allaah Muharram, and the best prayer after the obligatory prayer is prayer at night.” Narrated by Muslim, 1163.

**Ashura dates and fasting reminders**

Regarding the significance of fasting on Ashoora’ :

The reason why the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) fasted on the day of ‘Ashoora’ and urged the people to do likewise is mentioned in the hadeeth narrated by al-Bukhaari (1865) from Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him), who said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) came to Madeenah and saw the Jews fasting on the day of ‘Ashoora’. He said, “What is this?” They said, “This is a good day, this is the day when Allaah saved the Children of Israel from their enemy and Moosa fasted on this day.” He (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, “We are closer to Moosa than you.” So he fasted on this day and told the people to fast.

Fasting the day of ‘Ashoora’ does expiate (minor sins) for the past year, because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Fasting the day of ‘Arafah I hope Allaah will expiate thereby for the year before it and the year after it, and fasting the day of ‘Ashoora’ I hope Allaah will expiate thereby for the year that came before it.” Narrated by Muslim, 1162.

‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: When the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) fasted on the day of ‘Ashoora and told the people to fast, they said, “O Messenger of Allaah, this is a day that is venerated by the Jews and Christians.” The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, “Next year, if Allaah wills, we will fast on the ninth day.” But by the time the following year came, the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) had passed away.

Narrated by Muslim, 1916.

It is expected that 9th Muharram 1440 will coincide with Wednesday 19th September 2018 and Friday 20th September 2018 will be the 10th, or Ashoora’. May Allah grant us sincerity and the ability to seize the opportunity this Ashoora’ by fasting to gain His reward, love and forgiveness, through implementing the Sunnah of His final messenger Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam. Ameen

With love for the sake of Allah

Sit alone, click play, shut your eyes, listen with your heart…

(Scroll down for English interpretation- I know you’re busy, but DON’T be lazy to read this!)

zariyat 1 zariyat 2 zariyat 3 zariyat 4

Read at QURAN KSU

In the Name of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful.

( 1 ) By those [winds] scattering [dust] dispersing

( 2 ) And those [clouds] carrying a load [of water]

( 3 ) And those [ships] sailing with ease

( 4 ) And those [angels] apportioning [each] matter,

( 5 ) Indeed, what you are promised is true.

( 6 ) And indeed, the recompense is to occur.

( 7 ) By the heaven containing pathways,

( 8 ) Indeed, you are in differing speech.

( 9 ) Deluded away from the Qur’an is he who is deluded.

( 10 ) Destroyed are the falsifiers

( 11 ) Who are within a flood [of confusion] and heedless.

( 12 ) They ask, “When is the Day of Recompense?”

( 13 ) [It is] the Day they will be tormented over the Fire

( 14 ) [And will be told], “Taste your torment. This is that for which you were impatient.”

( 15 ) Indeed, the righteous will be among gardens and springs,

( 16 ) Accepting what their Lord has given them. Indeed, they were before that doers of good.

( 17 ) They used to sleep but little of the night,

( 18 ) And in the hours before dawn they would ask forgiveness,

( 19 ) And from their properties was [given] the right of the [needy] petitioner and the deprived.

( 20 ) And on the earth are signs for the certain [in faith]

( 21 ) And in yourselves. Then will you not see?

( 22 ) And in the heaven is your provision and whatever you are promised.

( 23 ) Then by the Lord of the heaven and earth, indeed, it is truth – just as [sure as] it is that you are speaking.

( 24 ) Has there reached you the story of the honored guests of Abraham? –

( 25 ) When they entered upon him and said, “[We greet you with] peace.” He answered, “[And upon you] peace, [you are] a people unknown.

( 26 ) Then he went to his family and came with a fat [roasted] calf

( 27 ) And placed it near them; he said, “Will you not eat?”

( 28 ) And he felt from them apprehension. They said, “Fear not,” and gave him good tidings of a learned boy.

( 29 ) And his wife approached with a cry [of alarm] and struck her face and said, “[I am] a barren old woman!”

( 30 ) They said, “Thus has said your Lord; indeed, He is the Wise, the Knowing.”

( 31 ) [Abraham] said, “Then what is your business [here], O messengers?”

( 32 ) They said, “Indeed, we have been sent to a people of criminals

( 33 ) To send down upon them stones of clay,

( 34 ) Marked in the presence of your Lord for the transgressors.”

( 35 ) So We brought out whoever was in the cities of the believers.

( 36 ) And We found not within them other than a [single] house of Muslims.

( 37 ) And We left therein a sign for those who fear the painful punishment.

( 38 ) And in Moses [was a sign], when We sent him to Pharaoh with clear authority.

( 39 ) But he turned away with his supporters and said,” A magician or a madman.”

( 40 ) So We took him and his soldiers and cast them into the sea, and he was blameworthy.

( 41 ) And in ‘Aad [was a sign], when We sent against them the barren wind.

( 42 ) It left nothing of what it came upon but that it made it like disintegrated ruins.

( 43 ) And in Thamud, when it was said to them, “Enjoy yourselves for a time.”

( 44 ) But they were insolent toward the command of their Lord, so the thunderbolt seized them while they were looking on.

( 45 ) And they were unable to arise, nor could they defend themselves.

( 46 ) And [We destroyed] the people of Noah before; indeed, they were a people defiantly disobedient.

( 47 ) And the heaven We constructed with strength, and indeed, We are [its] expander.

( 48 ) And the earth We have spread out, and excellent is the preparer.

( 49 ) And of all things We created two mates; perhaps you will remember.

( 50 ) So flee to Allah. Indeed, I am to you from Him a clear warner.

( 51 ) And do not make [as equal] with Allah another deity. Indeed, I am to you from Him a clear warner.

( 52 ) Similarly, there came not to those before them any messenger except that they said, “A magician or a madman.”

( 53 ) Did they suggest it to them? Rather, they [themselves] are a transgressing people.

( 54 ) So leave them, [O Muhammad], for you are not to be blamed.

( 55 ) And remind, for indeed, the reminder benefits the believers.

( 56 ) And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me.

( 57 ) I do not want from them any provision, nor do I want them to feed Me.

( 58 ) Indeed, it is Allah who is the [continual] Provider, the firm possessor of strength.

( 59 ) And indeed, for those who have wronged is a portion [of punishment] like the portion of their predecessors, so let them not impatiently urge Me.

( 60 ) And woe to those who have disbelieved from their Day which they are promised.

Oh My God! I’m lost for words…yet bursting to say something…

I keep clicking replay…

I can listen to this all day… I feel something in my heart when I read and listen to this. I see warnings, reminders, promises. I see truth. I see proof. I see meaning. I see no error. I feel a sense of emergency, of urgency. I feel I have to make a move. I have to act upon it. I feel I found the purpose in life.

I feel I need to run back to The One Who gave me life, The One Who will cause me to die, The One Who will resurrect me, and punish or reward me accordingly.

I need to run back to Allah alone.

So do you.

Be objective. Be sincere. Be open minded. I’m sure you’ll feel something too.

Oh Allaah the One Who changes the hearts, keep my heart firm upon Your religion! Guide us to preserve on Your straight path forever. Allahumma salli wasallim alaa nabiyinaa Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam. Ameen.

With love for the sake of The One.
