THE PROPHET’S(S) WILL CONCERNING ABU DHARR

By -

Sheik Abu Ali Tabarsi writes in his book, Makarim al Akhlaq, and several
other reliable sources relate that when Abu Asad Deelmi went to Rabza
to meet Abu Dharr, he told him that when one early morning he entered
the Prophet’s Mosques in Medina none other was present with the
Prophet (a.s) except for a copy of the Holy Quran and a hamael (a miniature
compilation of the Holy Book). Being alone with the Holy Prophet
(a.s), he took courage in his hands to ask him, “O Lord of the Universe!
Kindly give me such advice that it is advantageous to me in both the
worlds.”
The Prophet (a.s) looked at him intently and said, “Abu Dharr! For us
you are a member of our family! In my eyes you are a chosen creation of
Allah. Listen, and listen with care, remember and act on my advice. “O
Abu Dharr! Worship Allah as if you are seeing Him! And if you cannot
see Him, then definitely He sees you!’”
This tradition of the Prophet (a.s) is the comprehensive utterance of
the Prophet (a.s) that might require volumes to explain and elucidate.
We are trying to dwell on the subject briefly in the steps dealt with in the
following chapter. My humble effort may not measure up to the comprehension
of the eloquence of the Great Personality, but it is my duty to
make an effort. Insha Allah!

Mastrubation is a major sin (Gunah-e-Kabira)

By -
Once, 'Ammar ibn Musa asked Imam Sadiq [a] about commiting sexual intercourse with beasts or masterbation by the hand or other limbs of one's ownself, and he [a] replied: "Any form of these kinds and the like of them by which man pours forth his water, is (considered as) fornication (and it is unlawful)." AI-Kafi, vol. 5, p. 541 Question: What is the situation of Islam towards masturbation? Some youths say that doctors think it has no harm. The answer: Not all that doctors say is true. There are other doctors that say the opposite. What is important to us is what our Wise Creator says. He is more aware of His creatures. Islam, which is the speech of Allah, is clear in its verdicts. The Prophet (S) and his progeny have prohibited it. Masturbation is a filthy doing. Some traditions have called it as “adultery with oneself”. It does not fit the dignity of a respectable man. The clearest evidence on its ugliness is that the doer feels disgust with himself after...

Alhamdulliah

Alhamdu means that (all) praise, thanks, gratitude, be to Allah alone, not to any one else, from the beginning of the universe to its end, not under compulsion, but because He alone, and none else, deserves to be praised, not only for the fulfilment of his particular desires but also, mainly, for all the bounties and blessings made available to man in his existence. The love of the merciful for His creation is so deep and fulfilling that no compensation, even in the form of gratitude, can be offered to Him. In fact He needs no return. The divine mercy is independent of gratitude. It reaches and covers all the created beings whether the creatures show gratitude or not for the benefits and bounties they make use of and enjoy. The smallest bounty is an unconditional favour. Man does not deserve it, nor has he any right to claim any favour from the Lord. It is the allembracing mercy of the merciful Lord which reaches one and all, whether any creature asks for it or not, whether the recipie...
