The Trinity Is Not A Biblical Belief …Major western encyclopedias and dictionaries, written in the Christian West, by mainly Western Christians, admit to these facts: The New Encyclopedia Britannica: “Neither the word Trinity nor the explicit doctrine appears in the New Testament, nor did Jesus and his followers intend to contradict the Shema in the Old Testament: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord’ (Deuteronomy 6:4). …The doctrine developed gradually over several centuries and through many controversies. …It was not until the 4th century that the distinctness of the three and their unity were brought together in a single orthodox doctrine of one essence and three persons. …By the end of the 4th century … the doctrine of the Trinity took substantially the form it has maintained ever since.” 1 The Encyclopedia Americana: “Christianity derived from Judaism and Judaism was strictly Unitarian . The road which led from Jerusalem to Nicea was scarcely a straight one. Fourth century Trinitarianism did not reflect accurately early Christian teaching regarding the nature of God; it was, on the contrary, a deviation from this teaching.” 2 The Columbia Encyclopedia: “Trinity … the doctrine is not explicitly taught in the New Testament.” 3 The New Catholic Encyclopedia: “The formula itself does not reflect the immediate consciousness of the period of origins; it was the product of 3 centuries of doctrinal development … The formulation ‘one God in three Persons’ was not solidly established, certainly not fully assimilated into Christian life and its profession of faith, prior to the end of the 4th century. But it is precisely this formulation that has first claim to the title the Trinitarian dogma. Among the Apostolic Fathers, there had been nothing even remotely approaching such a mentality or perspective.” 4 Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics: “In the New Testament we do not find the doctrine of the Trinity in anything like its developed form, not even in the Pauline and Johannine theology.” 5 Encyclopedia International: “The doctrine of the Trinity did not form part of the apostles’ preaching, as this is reported in the New Testament.” 6 New Bible Dictionary: “The word Trinity is not found in the Bible, and, though used by Tertullian in the last decade of the 2nd Century, it did not find a place formally in the theology of the Church till the 4th century.” 7 Dictionary of the Bible: “The Trinity of God is defined by the Church as the belief that in God are three persons who subsist in one nature. The belief as so defined was reached only in the 4th and 5th centuries AD and hence is not explicitly and formally a biblical belief.” 8 New International Dictionary of New Testament Theology: “The NT does not contain the developed doctrine of the Trinity … primitive Christianity did not have an explicit doctrine of the Trinity such as was subsequently elaborated in the creeds of the early church.” 9 The Oxford Companion to the Bible: “Because the Trinity is such an important part of later Christian doctrine, it is striking that the term does not appear in the New Testament. Likewise, the developed concept of three coequal partners in the Godhead found in later creedal formulations cannot be clearly detected within the confines of the canon… While the New Testament writers say a great deal about God, Jesus and the Spirit of each, no New testament writer expounds on the relationship among the three in the detail that later Christian writers do.” 10

The Ultimate Goal Al-Haadi.org How would you respond to the following question: What is your ultimate goal in life? Would any of the following responses ever be heard?: To become super-rich To keep expanding one’s business To have the best comforts and luxuries To acquire the highest qualifications in one’s field To build one’s dream home or to own the smartest car Never! … A thousand times never! We are Mu’mineen (Believers). Our ultimate goal can never be such mundane things. A Mu’min’s ultimate goal can only be that which Allah Ta’ala has himself declared: “And the Pleasure of Allah is the greatest” (S9:72). Since the pleasure of Allah Ta’ala is the ultimate goal, whatever is necessary in order to acquire His pleasure must be happily undertaken while anything that becomes an obstacle in the path of obtaining His pleasure must be sacrificed. The great ibadah of Qurbani (sacrificing an animal on the occasion of Eidul-Adha) teaches us exactly this lesson. The love for one’s child is more than the love for everything in the world. One’s last cent will be spent to save the life of one’s child. Yet when Hazrath Ibrahim (Alaihis Salaam) was commanded to slaughter his son, he set out to fulfil the command in order to acquire the pleasure of Allah Ta’ala. Qurbani is a commemoration of this great spirit of sacrifice. It is a reminder of the fundamental lesson that the pleasure of Allah Ta’ala is the ultimate goal and nothing must come in the way of attaining it. FOR ALLAH TA’ALA ALONE In order to acquire the pleasure of Allah Ta’ala, we must be guided by His commandments and by the noble example of our beloved Rasul (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam). Everything must be for Allah Ta’ala alone, as commanded in the Glorious Qur’an: “Say, verily my salaah, my acts of worship, my living and my dying are for Allah, the Rabb (Nurturer) of the universe” (S6:162). To understand this fundamental concept, consider the following examples: BUSINESS: If one engages in business, it must be for the sake of Allah Ta’ala alone – that is to fulfil His command to acquire halaal sustenance and to take care of the needs of one’s family. Hence when the business is for Allah alone, the business must stop for salaah – salaah must not be put on hold for business. Likewise the most lucrative deal must be sacrificed if it entails any haraam element. All the laws of Shariah pertaining to business must be upheld, since the business is for Allah alone. LEAST EXPENSES NIKAH: Nikah is a great ibadah. One who gets married has completed half his Imaan. Nikah is also for Allah Ta’ala alone. Therefore it will be done in a manner that earns His pleasure. One of the most fundamental aspects to earn His pleasure in Nikah is adopting simplicity. Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) has declared: “The most blessed Nikah is wherein the least expenses were incurred” (Mishkaat). Thus if a Nikah is for Allah alone it will be a simple affair, not a lavish function. Thousands of rands will not be wasted on “deco.” Intermingling of males and females, music and other haraam activities will never take place. Let alone haraam activities, nothing will be done merely to impress people – since it is for Allah Ta’ala alone. DRESSING: One’s dressing is also for Allah Ta’ala alone. Thus the choice of clothes must conform to the Qur’an and Sunnah. Tight-fitting, revealing or western-style garments must never be worn, nor must the brand culture be followed. One must never dress to impress people (except the wife dressing for her husband) since Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) has declared: “The one who wears clothing to impress people, Allah Ta’ala will clothe him in garments of disgrace on the day of Qiyamah.”[Ahmed, Abu Dawood and Ibn Majah] GONE TO WASTE SERVING DEEN: The primary objective of our existence on earth is to worship Allah Ta’ala and to serve His Deen. It is obvious that serving Deen must be for Allah Ta’ala alone or else it will be rejected in His court. Therefore, one will ensure that the manner of serving Deen that one has adopted is pleasing to Allah Ta’ala. Hence transgressing the laws of Shariah to “serve” Deen totally contradicts the objective of working for Allah Ta’ala alone. The Qur’an describes such people as “… those whose efforts in the world have gone to waste, whereas they thought they were doing great acts” (S18:103). Thus if our service to Deen is for Allah Ta’ala alone, it must be done in conformance to Deen. These are merely some examples. Every aspect of our life must be scrutinized in the same way. Is it for Allah Ta’ala alone … or is it for my ego, status, position, power, name and fame or for any other ulterior motive. FULL OF BARAKAH Whatever is for Allah Ta’ala only is full of barakah and will be accepted in the court of Allah Ta’ala. The benefits of such actions are received in this world and the unimaginable rewards await one in the Hereafter, where Allah Ta’ala will manifest His total pleasure. That is the ultimate goal.

once someone is used to spicey all other foods taste bland...we even add spices to English dishes : )

Very spicey! All indian food is hot and spicey, maybe Turkish people cant take it?

Q: I have heard of a spray that is called "Miracle Magnesium" which I believe is very effective with all sorts of pain in joints etc. This is extracted from the dead sea. Will this be permissable to use? What is the Islamic ruling on using products from the dead sea? A: It is reported in the Hadith that when Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) passed by the land of Thamood where upon Azaab had fallen, Nabi (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) asked the Sahaabah to hasten and pass through that area covering their faces in the state of fear lest they may become victims of the punishment that was inflicted on the Thamood. Furthermore it is mentioned that Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) did not allow them to use the water of that place nor make wudhu from it and those who had prepared the food with that water, Nabi (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) asked them not to consume it. From this Hadith we understand that the place upon which azaab had fallen, one should not unnecessarily go to such places nor benefit from the things found there. Based on this Hadith we understand that it is not advisable for one to use such creams, sprays, etc which contain the dead sea extracts. And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best. وعن ابن عمر أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم لما مر بالحجر قال: «لا تدخلوا مساكن الذين ظلموا أنفسهم إلا أن تكونوا باكين أن يصيبكم ما أصابهم» ثم قنع رأسه وأسرع السير حتى اجتاز الوادي. متفق عليه (مشكاة #5125) عن عبد الله بن عمر رضي الله عنهما أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال لا تدخلوا على هؤلاء المعذبين إلا أن تكونوا باكين فإن لم تكونوا باكين فلا تدخلوا عليهم لا يصيبكم ما أصابهم (بخاري #433) عن إبراهيم بن سعد بن أبي وقاص عن أبيه قال نزل رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم بالحجر واستسقى الناس من بئرها ثم راح منها فلما استقل أمر الناس أن لا يشربوا من مائها ولا يتوضئوا منها وما كان من عجين عجن من مائها أن يعلف ففعل الناس لا يروى عن سعد إلا بهذا الإسناد تفرد به بن بنت شرحبيل (المعجم الأوسط #3404) وعن أبي الشموس البلوي «أن النبي - صلى الله عليه وسلم - نهى أصحابه يوم الحجر عن بئرهم، فألقى ذو العجين عجينه، وذو الحيس حيسه. رواه الطبراني، وفيه يعقوب بن حميد، وهو ضعيف ووثقه ابن حبان وقال: يخطئ في الشيء بعد الشيء. (مجمع الزوائد #10320) وعن سعد بن أبي وقاص قال: «نزل رسول الله - صلى الله عليه وسلم - بالحجر، واستقى الناس من بئرهم، ثم راح منها فلما استقر أمر الناس أن لا يشربوا من مائها، ولا يتوضئوا منها، وما كان من عجين عجن من مائها أن يعلف، ففعل الناس رواه الطبراني في الأوسط، وفيه عبد الرحمن بن بشير الدمشقي ضعفه أبو حاتم. (مجمع الزوائد #10321) وعن أبي ذر «أنهم كانوا مع رسول الله - صلى الله عليه وسلم - في غزوة تبوك فأتوا على واد، فقال لهم النبي - صلى الله عليه وسلم -: " إنكم بواد ملعون ; فأسرعوا ". فركب فرسه فدفع ودفع الناس، ثم قال: " من اعتجن عجينه، أو من كان طبخ قدرا فليكبها ". ثم سرنا ثم قال: " يا أيها الناس، إنه ليس اليوم نفس منفوسة يأتي عليها مائة سنة فيعبأ الله بها» ". رواه البزار، وفيه عبد الله بن قدامة بن صخر ولم أعرفه، وبقية رجاله وثقوا.

Shaikh Sa’di (Rahmatullahi Alaihi) writes: “Once, a thief silently sneaked into the house of a saint. The saint was asleep and was not aware of the thief’s entry. The thief began to search everywhere to see if he could find something valuable. However, after searching the entire dwelling, he realized that there was nothing available for him to steal, as the saint did not possess anything of the world. The only thing he saw was the saint sleeping with the blanket on his body covering him. Being overcome by a state of despondency and having lost all hope of acquiring anything, he eventually decided to leave. At that time, the saint’s eyes opened and he became aware of the intruder in his home. He thought to himself that how can I allow this person to leave empty handed, whereas he came in my home with the hope of receiving something. Hence, he placed the blanket he was using in the pathway of the thief with the intention that he takes the blanket and does not feel despondent by leaving empty handed. As the thief passed by the saint, thinking him to be asleep, he picked up the blanket and left. ” Shaikh Sa’di (Rahmatullahi Alaihi) thereafter comments: “I have heard that the friends of Allah Ta’ala do not cause any harm to anyone, let alone their friends, they even refrain from hurting their enemies, O listener, how will you ever reach the ranks of the pious and friends of Allah Ta’ala, whereas you constantly engage in disputes and quarrels with your own friends.” (Jawaahir Paare) Ihyaaud Deen

He was the final Prophet of Allah. 13. In the HOLY QURAN Allah Ta'ala mentioned our NABI MUHAMMAD MUSTAFA as KHAATAMUN NABIYEEN which means that he is the LAST of all the NABIS. 14.

2. Belief in the Angels Do Muslims belive in Angels? Muslims believe that Allah Ta'ala created Angels. So the answer is: yes, Muslims do belive in angels. When Were Angels Created and Out of What? Angels were craeted long before man. Muslims belive that Allah (God), created Angels out of light. What do Angels Do? Angels carry out the tasks ordered by God. Since Angels do NOT have Free Will, unlike humans, they do only that which God has ordered them to. hence, they belive in God and only do good. They never go agains the commands of Allah and when ordered to do something, do it. Are Angels Higher in Rank Than Man? Many people think that Angels are higher than man becasue they never disobey Allah Ta'ala. The thing is, when there is a sinning slave who does not repent, then of course the angel will be of higher rank. However, that slave who worships Allah and carries out the orders of Allah may attain a higher rank than the Angels by his good deeds. Why? Because man has free will, hence he can do good and bad BUT if he controls himself and stays away from bad then this takes him a level higher, as he has controlled himself. How Many Angles Are There? We do not know the amount of angels Allah created, but one thing we do know is that there are a huge amount of angels. Well Known Angels 1)Jibra'eel 2)Mikaeel 3)Israfeel 4)Izraeel

1. Belief in Allah Belief in Allah is not confined to belief in the mere existence of a Creator. This belief necessitates the affirmation of Allah with all His Attributes in the way in which these are expounded in the Qur'aan and Hadith. 1. Allah is ONE. 2. He alone is worthy of worship and none besides Him is worthy of worship. 3. He has no PARTNER. 4. Nothing is hidden from Him, He even knows the thoughts that go into a person's mind. 5. He is the most POWERFUL. 6. He has created the earth, the skies, the sun, the moon, the stars, the angel, human beings and the whole universe. 7. He gives life and death. 8. He gives sustenance to all creation. 9. He does not eat, drink or sleep. 10. He is forever and will be forever. 11. He was not created by anyone. 12. He does not have any parents, wife or children. 13. He does not depend on anybody. All depend on Him. 14. Nobody resembles Allah, and He resembles none. 15. He is pure from all faults. 16. He does not have eyes, nose or a body like that of human beings. 17. We should therefore PRAY to HIM for all our requirements.

There are seven basic beliefs in Islam. Belief in: 1. Allah 2. Angels of Allah (Mala’ikah) 3. Books of Allah (Kutubullah) 4. Messengers of Allah (Rusulullah) 5. The Day of Judgement (Yawmuddin) 6. Pre-destination or Supremacy of Divine Will (Al-Qadr) 7. Life after death (Akhirah) These beliefs have been declared in Al-Imanul Mufassal (the statement of faith), which is as follows: "Amantu Billahi, wa Mala’ikatihi, wa Kutubihi, wa Rusulihi, wal Yawmil Akhiri, wal Qadri Khairihi wa Sharrihi Minal Lahi Ta’ala, wal Ba’thi Ba’dal Mawt." Meaning: "I believe in Allah, in His angels, in His books, in His messengers, in the Last Day (Day of Judgement) and in the fact that everything good or bad is decided by Allah, the Almighty, and in the Life after Death."

Equality Among Wives (From Beheshti Zewar) 1. If a person has more than one wife it is wâjib upon him to treat each one equally. Whatever he gives to one wife, the other wife also has the right to claim something equal to that in value. This rule of equality applies to all types of wives, i.e. whether both were virgins at the time of marriage, both were previously married or one was a virgin at the time of marriage while the other had been previously married. If he spends one night with one wife, he will have to spend one night with the other wife as well. If he spends two or three nights with one wife, he will have to do the same with the other wife as well. Whatever wealth, jewellery, clothes, etc. he gives to one wife, the other wife also has the right to claim something equal to that in value. 2. If a person marries a second woman, the rights of this new wife and the rights of the old wife are the same. There is no difference in rights between the two. 3. Equality is based on spending the night and it is not necessary to spend an equal time with them during the day. If a person spends more time with one wife during the day and less time with the other, there is no harm in this. However, it is wâjib to spend an equal time with them at night. If a person goes to one wife immediately after maghrib, and the following day he goes to the other wife after ‘ishâ, he will be sinning. However, if a person’s occupation is such that he works at night and remains at home during the day; for him, the basis of equality will be the day. For example, a night watchman or guard will have to base his equality with his wives according to the day and not the night. 4. There is no equality in engaging in sexual intercourse in the sense that if a person engages in sexual intercourse with one wife, it is not necessary for him to engage in sexual intercourse with the other wife as well. 5. The man has to maintain equality in allocating nights to his wives irrespective of whether he is ill or not. 6. There is no sin in loving one wife more than the other because these matters are connected to the heart and one does not have any control over one’s heart. 7. Equality is not wâjib when embarking on a journey. The husband can take whichever wife he wishes. However, it is preferable to cast a lot and to take the wife in whose favour the lot was drawn. In this way there will be no unhappiness or disgruntlement.

When choosing a carrier or doing any action we should ask ourselves why we have chosen what we have chosen. What is our intention? Is it because everyone is doing it and we simply jump on the bandwagon? "Which bandwagon are you jumping on? Are you jumping on Nooh's Safina or the Titanic?" Shaykh Hasan Ali *safina is a ship therefore it means Prophet Nooh AS's ship which was saved or the Titanic which sank

One should recite the following Duaa in the evening: أَمْسَيْنَا وَأَمْسَى الْمُلْكُ لِلَّهِ، وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ، رَبِّ أَسْأَلُكَ خَيْرَ مَا فِي هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةِ وَخَيْرَ مَا بَعْدَهَا، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا فِي هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةِ وَشَرِّ مَا بَعْدَهَا، رَبِّ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْكَسَلِ وَسُوءِ الْكِبَرِ، رَبِّ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ عَذَابٍ فِي النَّارِ وَعَذَابٍ فِي الْقَبْرِ We and the entire creation of Allah Ta’ala spend the evening for Allah Ta’ala. And all praises be to Allah Ta’ala. There is no deity besides Allah Ta’ala alone, who has no partner. To Him belongs the entire universe, and for Him is all praise and He has power over everything. O my Rabb, I ask you for the good of this night and the good of what is after it, and I seek Your protection from the evil of this night and the evil of what is after it. O my Rabb, I seek Your protection from laziness and the difficulty of old age. O my Rabb, I seek Your protection from the punishment of Jahannum and from the punishment in the grave. عن عبد الله رضي الله عنه قال كان نبي الله صلى الله عليه وسلم إذا أمسى قال أمسينا وأمسى الملك لله والحمد لله لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له قال أراه قال فيهن له الملك وله الحمد وهو على كل شيء قدير رب أسألك خير ما في هذه الليلة وخير ما بعدها وأعوذ بك من شر ما في هذه الليلة وشر ما بعدها رب أعوذ بك من الكسل وسوء الكبر رب أعوذ بك من عذاب في النار وعذاب في القبر وإذا أصبح قال ذلك أيضا أصبحنا وأصبح الملك لله (مسلم رقم 2723) Hadhrat Abdullah bin Mas’ood (Radhiallahu Anhu) reports that Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) would recite the following Duaa at the time of dusk: أَمْسَيْنَا وَأَمْسَى الْمُلْكُ لِلَّهِ، وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ، رَبِّ أَسْأَلُكَ خَيْرَ مَا فِي هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةِ وَخَيْرَ مَا بَعْدَهَا، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا فِي هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةِ وَشَرِّ مَا بَعْدَهَا، رَبِّ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْكَسَلِ وَسُوءِ الْكِبَرِ، رَبِّ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ عَذَابٍ فِي النَّارِ وَعَذَابٍ فِي الْقَبْرِ And he would recite the same Duaa at dawn, except that he would read the words اَصبَحْنَا وَ اَصْبَحَ الملكُ للهِ instead of أَمْسَيْنَا وَأَمْسَى الْمُلْكُ لِلَّهِ
