Zakat-ul-Fitr

السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ

As salaam alaykum ramatullahi wa barakthu "May the peace of Allah be upon you, and His mercy and blessings" 

Dear friends, 

Today I would like to introduce you about some important points about Zakat-ul-Fitr.

Every Muslim is required to pay Zakat-ul-Fitr at the conclusion of the month of Ramadan as a token of thankfulness to God for having enabled him to observe fasts. Its purpose is to purify those who fast from any indecent act or speech and to help the poor and needy.

This is a broad subject but normally below details will be enough. If anybody has any doubt please comment or inform me by E-mail.

 Who must pay Zakat-ul-Fitr

 Zakat-ul-Fitr is incumbent on every free Muslim who possesses one Sa` of dates or barley which is not needed as basic food for himself or his family for the duration of one day and night. Every free Muslim must pay Zakat-ul-Fitr for himself and to whom those who are in his obligation to feed and take care.

When Zakat-ul-Fitr is due

The jurists agree that Zakat-ul-Fitrr is due at the end of Ramadan. It is due at the sunset of the night of breaking the fast, for this is when the fast of Ramadan ends.

If a baby is born after sunset then Zakat-ul-Fitr is not obligatory for the baby. If someone married a lady after sunset then it is not the obligation of that husband to pay Zakath on her. If one convert Islam after sunset also not obligatory to pay Zakat-ul-Fitr. No obligation to pay Zakath by owner on a servant who is receiving salary or wage. Baby born before sunset of Ramadan by prostitution it is mother’s responsibility to pay Zakath for that baby.

Time of payment

It is better to give after dawn of Eid day and before Eid prayer. It is not permissible to delay giving Zakat-ul-Fitr after the day of `Eid (i.e. one may give it up to the time of the `Eid prayer). However, there are some jurists who think that it is permissible to delay giving it even after the `Eid prayer but any delay is a sin.

Anyway, the founders of the four accepted Islamic legal schools agree that Zakat-ul-Fitr is not nullified simply by failure to pay it on its due time. If it is not paid before `Eid prayer, one is not exempt from it. It becomes a debt payable even after death. The heirs must not distribute the deceased’s legacy before payment of the deceased’s unpaid Zakat-ul-Fitr.

Most scholars believe that it is permissible to pay Zakat-ul-Fitr a day or two before `Eid. Ibn `Umar reported that the Messenger, upon whom be peace, ordered them to pay Zakat-ul-Fitr before the people went out to perform the `Eid prayer. Nafi‘ reported that `Umar used to pay it a day or two before the end of Ramadan

What type of food can be given and permissible substitutes

It is permissible to give any kind of food as long as it is the main staple in that particular region or the main food of the receiving person.

The calculation of Zakat-ul-Fitr

The amount of Zakat-ul-Fitr is one Sa` of main food of the receiving person.

The amount of Sa`

Sa` is a certain measure which equals 4 mudds (a mudd equals a handful of an average man). The contemporary equivalent weights of Sa` differs according to the stuff which is weighted. For example a Sa` of wheat equals 2176 grams, a Sa` of rice is 2520 grams, a Sa` of beans equals 2250 grams etc.

So approximately 3.2liter or 2.800 Kg can be used as a measure for paying Zakat-ul-Fitr .

 Payment in money

The Hanafis permitted the payment of Zakat-ul-Fitr in money. However, the other three schools (Maliki, Shafiyi and Hambali) did not permit this. Their argument is that the Prophet did not do so and hence its payment in money contradicts the Sunnah of the Prophet.

So better is not to pay money as Zakat-ul-Fitr and pay only in the form of food.

To whom it has to pay

1) The poor & the needy – these people may have some wealth, but not enough to make up the nisab.

2) The destitute – such people have nothing other than the very basic necessities; they are worse off than the poor

3) Those employed to collect the Zakath – this refers to those that collect as well as distribute the Zakath appointed by Islamic government.

4) Muslim converts who are needy and poor

5) Those who are indebted, but unable to settle their debt.

6) Travelers who have run out of money and would therefore have no way of reaching their final destination without help.

(Slaves on whom release letter wrote and Muslim fighters in the path of Allahu are not prevailing now so that is not considered. No Zakath can be given to non muslim or Ahlubaith)

Where has to pay

Where he/she is staying when he/she knew it is Eid

Nice story of Ibrahim ibn Adham

السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ

As salaam alaykum ramatullahi wa barakthu "May the peace of Allah be upon you, and His mercy and blessings" 

Dear friends, 

Today I would like to invite your attention in to two nice events happened in the life of a great man named Abu Eshaq Ibrahim ibn Adham generally called as Ibrahim ibn Adham  .  Abu Eshaq Ibrahim ibn Adham was born in Balkh and of Arab descent. He is one of the earliest documented great Sufis. He was a King of Balkh who renounced his throne for a spiritual kingdom and wandered to live a life of complete asceticism, earning his bread in Syria by honest manual toil until his death in c. 165 AH (782 AD).

Once he passed by a sad man and told him, “I want to ask you about three things, so answer me. Does anything in this universe happen against the will of Allah?”

The man denied and Ibrahim said, “Does your daily bread decrease from what Allah has decided for you?”

The man again denied and Ibrahim said, “Will your life end even one second earlier than Allah has decided for you?”

And again, the man denied. So Ibrahim said, “So why is the sadness?”

Another event was that a man came to Ibrahim ibn Adham and said, “I do a lot of bad deeds, so tell me things that can forbid me from doing wrong.”

Ibrahim answered, “If you accepted five traits and were able to do them, you would not commit any bad deed again.

 The first one is if you want to disobey Allah, do not eat from His bounty.”

The man said, “So where can I eat from and all the earth belongs to Him?”

Ibrahim answered, “Is it right to eat from His bounty and disobey Him?”

The man said, “No. Tell me the second.”

Ibrahim said, “If you want to disobey Him, do not live in any of His lands.”

The man said, “This is harder, so where can I live?”

Ibrahim said, “Is it right to eat from His bounty, live in His lands, and then disobey Him?”

The man denied and asked for the third.

Ibrahim said, “If you want to disobey Him while you eat from His bounty and live in His lands, then disobey Him in a place where He cannot see you.”

The man said, “How and He even knows what is going on inside my head?”

Ibrahim answered, “So, can you eat from His bounty, live in His lands, disobey Him while He sees you and knows what you want to say and what you have kept secret to yourself?”

The man said “No” and asked for the fourth.

Ibrahim said, “If the angel of death comes to take your soul, tell him ‘Leave me till I repent and do good deeds.’”

The man said that he would not accept and Ibrahim replied, “If you cannot escape death and know that if it comes it will not be delayed, how can you wish to be saved?”

The man asked for the fifth and Ibrahim continued, “If angels of torment come to you on the Day of Judgment to take you to Hell, do not go with them.”

The man said, “They will not let me go.”

Ibrahim replied, “So how do you wish to be rescued, then?”

And the man responded, “Ibrahim, enough, enough! I will repent to Allah.” His repentance was a true one and he kept worshiping till the end of his life. 

I hope you could understand the above stories and please obey Allah also kindly include me in your prayer

Laylatul-Qadr (the Night of Decree)

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem "In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful”  

السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ

As salaam alaykum ramatullahi wa barakthu "May the peace of Allah be upon you, and His mercy and blessings" 

Dear friends, 

We are now moving to last ten days of Ramadan. We are really missing our valuable moments. We are not sure it will come in our life again. So utilize our time more in these days and nights with prayers. Already 20 days from Holy Ramadan had gone. In the last ten days of Ramadan Our Prophet spent whole time in his Mosque and he tighten his belly to do more prayer. In these last  ten days we must increase Ihtikaf in the mosque ( for men only) and more Quran reading , Tasbish namaz (read post for tasbih namaz in this blog) and increase the below dikr much more,

Ashhadu Anlahilaha Illallah Asthagfirullah Allahumma Inni  Asalukal Jannatha wa Aoudubika Mina Nnaar

(I am confirming that Allah is the only one GOD who should be worshiped, Oh Allah forgive me and give me your heaven and save me from your hell)

Allahumma ihthikni mina nnar wa adhilnal jannatha ya rabbal alameen

( Oh Allah, Please exclude me from your  hell and include me in your heaven)

Allahumma innaka 'affuwwun tuhibbul 'afwa fa'fu 'annee

(O Allaah You are The One Who pardons greatly, and loves to pardon, so pardon me)

We also need to seek or expect for Laylatul – Qadr. A small description about laylatul – Qadr as follows,

Seeking Laylatul-Qadr (the Night of Decree)

It is the greatest night of the year like the Day of `Arafah is the greatest day of the year. It is a night about which Allah reveled a full Surah, Suratul-Qadr

It is the night when the Qur'an was reveled.

It is the night when the Message (the Final and seal of all messages) sent to Mohammad, salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam, started

It is the night when the light, that would illuminate mankind to the end of life, started

It is the night when every matter of ordainment is decreed

Allah says in what can be translated as:

"Verily! We have sent it (this Qur'aan) down in the Night of Decree (Lailatul-Qadr). And what will make you know what the Night of Decree is? The Night of Decree is better than a thousand months. Therein descend the angels and the Rooh (ie. Jibreel [Gabriel]) by Allaah's Permission with all Decrees, Peace! until the appearance of dawn." [97:1-5]

A person who misses Laylatul-Qadr is really a deprived person!

Abu Hurairah reported that the Prophet, salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam, said “The blessed month has come to you. Allah has made fasting during it obligatory upon you. During it the gates to Paradise are opened and the gates of Hellfire are locked, and the devils are chained. There is a night [during this month] which is better than a thousand months. Whoever is deprived of its good is really deprived [of something great]. [Ahmad, an-Nisa'i and al-Bayhaqi]

One who misses this blessed night then he has missed much good for no one misses it except one from whom it is withheld. Therefore it is recommended that the Muslim who is eager to be obedient to Allaah should stand in Prayer during this night out of Eemaan and hoping for the great reward, since if he does this, Allaah will forgive his previous sins (1).

What happens to the person who witnesses Laylatul-Qadr? and what should one do?

Abu Hurairah Radhiya Allahu `anhu reported that the Messenger of Allah, salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam, said : "Whoever stands (in prayer) in Lailatul-Qadr out of Eemaan (faith and sincerity) and seeking reward then his previous sins are forgiven". [Bukhari]

It is recommended to supplicate a lot during this night, it is reported from our mother 'Aishah radhiya Allahu `anha, that she said: "O Messenger of Allah! What if I knew which night Lailatul-Qadr was, then what should I say in it?" He said.- "Say.- (Allahumma innaka 'affuwwun tuhibbul 'afwa fa'fu 'annee.)

"O Allaah You are The One Who pardons greatly, and loves to pardon, so pardon me.".

When is Laylatul-Qadr ?

It is preferred to seek this night during the last ten odd nights of Ramadan, as the Prophet salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam,, strove his best in seeking it during that time. We have already mentioned that the Prophet would stay up during the last ten nights, would wake his wives, and then would remain apart from them to worship.

`Aishah radhiya Allahu `anha said: "Allah's Messenger used to practice I`itikaf in the last ten nights and say: 'Seek out Lailatul-Qadr in the (odd nights) of the last ten of Ramadan." [Bukhari and Muslim]

It is known from the Sunnah, that knowledge of the exact night upon which Lailatul-Qadr falls was taken up because the people argued, 'Ubaadah ibn as- Saamit, radiyalloahu 'anhu, said: The Prophet came out intending to tell us about Lailatul-Qadr, however two men were arguing and he said: "I come out to inform you about Lailatul-Qadr but so and so, and, so and so were arguing, so it was raised up, and perhaps that is better for you, so seek it on the (twenty) ninth and the (twenty) seventh and the (twenty) fifth.'[Bukhari]

Some of the ahadeeth indicate that Lailatul-Qadr is in the last ten nights, while others indicate that it is in the odd nights of the last ten, so the first are general and the second more particular, and the particular has to be given priority over the general. Other ahadeeth state that it is in the last seven - and these are restricted by mention of one who is too weak or unable. So there is no confusion, all the ahadeeth agree and are not contradictory.

In conclusion: The Muslim should seek out Lailatui-Qadr in the odd nights of the last ten: the night of the twenty-first, the twenty-third, the twenty-fifth, the twenty-seventh and the twenty-ninth. If he is too weak or unable to seek it out in all the odd nights, then let him seek it out in the odd nights of the of seven: the night of the twenty-fifth, the twenty-seventh and the twenty-ninth And Allah knows best.

What are the signs of laylatul-Qadr?

Allaah's Messenger , salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam, described the morning after Lailatul-Qadr, so that the Muslim may know which day it is. From Ubayy, radhiya Allahu 'anhu, who said: that he, salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam, said: "On the morning following Lailatui-Qadr the sun rises not having any rays, as if it were a brass dish, until it rises up."[Muslim, Abu Dawud, Tirmithi and Ibn Majah]

Abu Hurairah, radhiya Allahu 'anhu, said : "We were discussing Lailatul-Qadr in the presence of Allah's Messenger so he said : 'Which of you remembers [the night] when the moon arose and was like half a plate?... [Muslim]

Ibn 'Abbaas, radhiya Allahu 'anhuma, said: Allaah's Messenger, salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam, said: "Lailatul-Qadr is calm and pleasant, neither hot nor cold, the sun arises on its morning being feeble and red." [at-Tayaalisee, Ibn Khuzaimah and al-Bazzaar with a Hasan Isnad]

We pray to Allah All Mighty Most Merciful to bless us this Ramadan by witnessing Laylatul-Qadr

I hope you could understand and please try to get the gains from Allah also kindly include me in your prayer

Ramadan fasting and Important notes

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem "In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful”  

السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ

As salaam alaykum ramatullahi wa barakthu "May the peace of Allah be upon you, and His mercy and blessings" 

Dear friends, 

Today I would like to introduce you about some important points about Ramadan fasting. Please read it carefully and utilize in your life. Every adult and mentally sound male or female Muslim is required to fast in Ramadan. Some exceptions with conditions are there but normally everyone has to take Ramadan fasting.

Fasting will start before time reach for asan (Call for Prayer) for fajr to time reach for asan (Call for Prayer) for Magrib.

Niyyath or intention should be there for fasting and has to be done (as per shafyee madhab) before time reach for asan (Call for Prayer) for fajr. The niyyath or intension is like that “I decided to take current year compulsory and present ramadan fasting of tomorrow for Allahu Taala”

So now after above intension/Niyyath we are in fasting and we have to be careful about some important points which break or invalidate fasting. Some of them are as follows,

What Breaks the Fast?

Any of the following invalidates the fast:

·        Eating or drinking – but if anyone forgot that he has fasting or unknowingly eating then it will not break his/her fast.

·        Sexual intercourse – In the day time of Ramadan will break fast. If someone had sexual intercourse before the time starts for fasting only and have niyyath for fasting then he/She will get the fasting means will not break h/s/her fasting.

·         Immersing the entire head in water – There is a chance to enter water in to their body by open holes of the body. So be careful when you sink in the river or water. Better to take bath by pouring the water on body carefully.

·        Enter something solid form (includes liquid) though natural holes of the body or artificially created holes like holes created in body for medical operation.  Applying oils or medicine or cosmetics on skin will not break fasting.

·        Deliberate inhalation of smoke

·        Masturbating – If someone got orgasm (semen came out from him) without touching anybody openly and without any intension also it will not break fasting. Foreg 1):- if someone saw a beautiful lady and immediately he got orgasm which will not break his fasting.2) If husband kissed his wife emotionally without any hiding by cloth or anything and he got orgasm will break his fasting.

·         Taking injections directly to veins – Even if nothing injected but needle only entered then also fast will break because needle is solid one.

·        Deliberate vomiting

·        Swallowing blood which comes from gums even if with saliva.

·         One who misses fasting a number of days during the month of Ramadan due to long travelling, forgetfulness, ignorance of the fact that those days were the days of the month of Ramadan, sickness, menstruation or childbirth, are required to make up in equal number of days missed.

·        If anyone lost fasting then also he/she must be live like a fasting person. He should not insult the fasting by enjoying everything which is banned in Ramadan fasting.

Please include me in your prayer…

Salathul Tasbih

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem "In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful”  

السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ

As salaam alaykum ramatullahi wa barakthu "May the peace of Allah be upon you, and His mercy and 

blessings" 

Dear friends, 

Today I would like to introduce you about Salathul Tasbih. It is very important Salath and if you do Salathul Tasbih , Allah will forgive your sin or mistakes which is of future and of  past; new and old; those you have forgotten and those you did knowingly; big and small; hidden and revealed. Everything Allah will forgive you. Muhammed Musthafa (Sallallaho Alihiwassallam) said if you can pray this salah once a day, if you cannot pray once a day then every Friday, and even if this is not possible then once a month and even if this is not possible then once a year and even if this is not possible then at least once in a lifetime

How to perform Salatul Tasbih?

·        This salah (namaz) is offered in four rakat at a time in day time or if you do in night we can do two rakaath each.

·        Don’t do this salath at forbidden time  ( means sometimes we should not offer some sunnath namaz for which reason for such sunnath namaz is incur only after that namaz foreg:- Isthikarth namaz – this reason/result for this one will be after namaz. But for other namaz like Thahiyath Namaz (which has to perform when we enter in to the masjid ) can be done any time because its reason occurred before we doing namaz. Same like ravathib sunnath namaz etc). Makrooh (forbidden) times are,

When the sun begins to rise until it is fully up; when the sun is at its height until it passes the meridian; and when the sun begins to set until it is completely set. No prayers should be offered after the fard of Fajr until after sunrise. And similarly, no prayers should be offered after the fard of ‘Asr until after sunset.

The Tasbih is as follows
" Subhaanallahi Wal Hamdulillahi Wa Laa ilaha illallaahu Wallahu Akbar "

Methode:-
Make the Niyath ( intention) -  I am performing four (in night two each) rakaath thasbeeh prayer for Allahu by turning to Kaaba, say “Allahu Akbar” and fold hands. Do wajjahathu….then recited Surah Fatihah and another Surah.

Recite Tasbih (" Subhaanallahi Wal Hamdulillahi Wa Laa ilaha illallaahu Wallahu Akbar ")  15 times.

Go into ruku and recite “Subhana Rabiyal Azeem wabi hamdihi” 3 times.
Recite tasbih 10 times.
Rise from bowing position and say “Rabana lakal hamd”.
Recite tasbih 10 times.
Do the sujood and in the first sujood recite “Subhana Rabiyal A’ala wabi hamdihi” 3 times
Recite tasbih 10 times.
Rise from sujood in the sitting position recite “Rabigfirli warhamni wajuburni warafani warzukhni wahdini waafni”.

Recite tasbih 10 times.
Do the second sujood as usual and recite “Subhana Rabiyal A’ala wabi hamdihi ” 3 times
Recite tasbih 10 times.
Before standing up, go into sitting position
Recite tasbih 10 times.
Stand up, recite Surah Fatihah and another Surah.
Recite Tasbih 15 times
Perform the rest of the salah while reciting the tasbih in the stated postures.

Special notes for Salatthul Tasbih
1.)In the second rak’ah and fourth rak’ah the tasbih will be recited before the tashahhud (means  before reciting dikr athahiyathul mubarakathu salawathu……).

2) Do not count loudly. It will break Salath
3) Do not count on fingers or by holding a Bead Tasbih in hand. It is Makrooh.
4) You may count by pressing the fingers as a reminder. For example if you are in Ruku. You me press pinky of your right hand first for the first count, then the finger next to it for second count, then the middle finger for third count, following this method untill you reach the pinky of left hand will give you an exact count of ten.

5) If missed a count then make it up in the next posture. For example if forgot to recite Tasbih after Surath. Then you may recite Tasbish 25 times instead of 10 in Rukuh after "Subhaana Rabbiyal Azeem wabi hamdihi ". Missed Tasbih cannot be recited in standing (ihthidal or qiyam) after ruku and sitting between Sajadah and siting after second sajadah. Because these positions time is very less. If you missed the Tasbih in Ruku then recite 20 in the first Sajdah instead of the standing after rukuh. Similarly if missed the Tasbih in first Sajdah then do not make it up in sitting. Instead recite missed tasbih in the second Sajdah. If Tasbih has been missed in last sajdah of second or fourth Rakah then you can recite the missed ones before Attahiyat
6) It is preferable to recite after Surah Fatiha Sura Takathuur in the first raka’, Surah Wal A’sr in the second raka’, Surah Kaferoon (qul ya aiyuhal Kafiroon) in the third and Surah Akhlas (Qul hu Allah-hu ahd) in the fourth raka’. If one does not remember these surah they can recite the ones they prefer.

Current affairs- Ramadan and Badr

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem "In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful”  

السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ

As salaam alaykum ramatullahi wa barakthu "May the peace of Allah be upon you, and His mercy and 

blessings" 

Dear friends, 

Today I would like to introduce you about Badr fight and Ahlu Badr. War or fight is not a solution at all for any problem but sometimes we have to defense if needed.

As we know well, all countries are keeping big budget for their defense purpose and nobody like to fight also. Then why they need to keep this big amount of money for military activities instead of giving to poor and needy people? Answer is simple that everybody needs protection. Like ways in the earlier stage, Islam also faced lot of troubles due to the prolonging attacks from Kafir and Mushirik (non muslim). And all Islamic wars were only for protecting and defending themselves.

Muhammed (SAW) was very faithful and trustworthy. He is the model for all human being as Quran said Oh Muhammed , you have very good character and if  you are not good one people will away from you. In other place Quran said Innaka la Ala Hulukin Aleem (Oh Muhammed surely you are top of ever best character). Nobody can completely write about Muhammed (SAW) because Muahmmed (SAW) is the top most creation of Allah. Allah said Muhammed (SAW) is Akramul Khalq.

The specialty of Muhammed (SAW) was accepted and recognized by the non muslims in the Makkah also. They were always entrusting him all cargos for trading and also their valuable belongings since they knew that Muhammed (SAW) will not cheat them. They used to call him as Al Ameen (Trustworthy). But after Muhammed (SAW) got the responsibility to invite people to Islam by Allah, everybody became against to him. They used to throw stones, abuse him, call him mad and crazy etc. They used to threaten him.

Only few people in the initial stage accepted Islam and non-Muslims put many troubles on them. They banned them from Makkah. They stopped to do all trade dealings with them. They also warned other people those who support Muhammed (SAW) to do business. At last Muhammed (SAW) and supports were compelled to stay in dry desert and hilly area. They have no food and Makkah non muslims prevented other people to provide food to Muhammed (SAW) and his supporters. Many months they were stayed in that dry place and they start to eat green leafs like animals eat.

All their cargos were taken by Makkah non muslims and they made profit out of it. Muhammed (SAW) and supporters compelled to go hijrah. We must see that how a person can live like this. They lost everything like his land, their crops, cargos, animals, house and whatever they had. They scarified everything for Islam. At last Allah said Muhammed (SAW) why you are waiting, go and fight with them. Then only Muhammed (SAW) said to his supporters to fight.

In badr, Muhammed (SAW) saw Makkah non muslims are on the way back to Makkah after trading their goods. It was actually the goods of Muslims. So they have to ask their goods. But this news was heard by Makkah non muslim leaders and they send big army to help this traders to fight and kill Muhammed (SAW) and his followers. Muhammed (SAW) and supporters are very few and non muslims was around 3 times bigger than them with all facility. Muslims had nothing other than their faith on Allah and Muhammed (SAW). They also had Ramadan fasting. Muhammed (SAW) prayed Allah that if you not help us now nobody will be there for you in future to worship you. So Allah brought Angels to support Muslims. Actually fight was done by Muslims and angels only support them. The fight was on Ramadan 17.

In that fight Muslims won extremely and it was the first Islamic war held in place called Badr. 14 Muslims were killed in that fight. But most of non muslims were killed and 70 non muslims were caught as prisoners. But Muhammed (SAW) allows them to go by giving condition that to teach muslims.

Islamic fight was done only when it was needed and it carried out by strict rules like don’t kill children, women, and old aged people etc.

Muhammed (SAW) said us that no need to fight again in future. We should live peacefully. Islam clearly says if anyone kills anybody without any proper reason then he killed whole human beings in this world. Nobody has the right to kill anybody. If needed government can only do so.  It is one of the big sin out of seven big sin mentioned by Islam. All are created by Allah. He is giving food, health and protection to everybody including non muslims. Then how can we kill them? Allah definitely question and punish you if you do so. But defense it right of every man.

Now a days, everybody treats Islam is the religion of attack and Muslims are terrorist. But my dear brothers and sisters,  Islam not at all encourage terrorism even though some muslim name holders is doing so. It is their responsibly and sin. Not put that title on Islam and Muslims. Muhammed (SAW), said if anyone eat food well when his neighbor (muslim or non muslim) is starving, he will not be under my category. Then how this kind of religion can be cruel one? Then how a Muslims can be terrorists?

May Allah forgive us all and give us His Light of right path ever.. Ameen
