بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم In the N ame of A llah, M ost G racious, M ost M erciful Introduction to Global Economic Solution High Officials and Politicians need to have a mandatory one week vacation, deductible from their earned vacation, to live in true poverty so they can feel the pain of poor people. Also they need to have a mandatory one month fasting period, like Muslims do in the month of Ramadan, to feel the pain of hunger; they should only be excused from the fasting if they have a valid reason for their excusal e.g. medical issue.

The Relationship between the Qur'an and the Progeny of the Prophet The hadith concerning the "two weighty trusts" known as hadith a1-thaqalayn is one of the most widely accepted and authoritative of all the traditions narrated from the Prophet peace and blessings be upon him and his family and it has also been recorded in the principal Sunni books of tradition. It possesses the highest degree of authenticity and acceptance. The text is as follows: "I leave among you two precious and weighty trusts on being the Book of God and the other my Progeny. These two legacies will never be separated from each other and if you lay firm hold of them you will never go astray. ( 1 ) Certain Sunni scholars even add the following sentence at the end of the hadith: " 'Ali is always with the Qur'an and the Qur'an is with 'Ali; they too will not be separated from each other. " ( 2 ) Hadith scholars attribute the transmission of this tradition to roughly thirty...

Debate: Was Muhammad a Prophet of God? PS: Yet again the readers are requested to watch the debate carefully and see where the non-Muslims in general and Izlamic Murtads in particular get the anti-Islamic info from. This time I must say that the Missionary seems much better than many others. However, his arguments have little to do with the Quran. They always use some common hearsay to disprove the Quran! Does it make any sense?! Sami Zaatari vs. David Wood http://youtube.com/watch?v=Eq6Mdu8idic

THE JOURNEY OF DEATH Kullu Nafsin dhaikatul maut "Every soul must taste death..." Suratul 'Ankabut - 29:57 Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajioon "..Indeed we are from Allah and indeed to Him we will return." Suratul Baqara 2:156 There are only two things that are certain in one's existence. One is birth - as in the above aya - indeed we are from Allah - and the other is death - and indeed to Him we will return. We prepare for the birth of a child, even calling the mother an 'expectant' mother but we do not call ourselves 'expectant' marhumeen even though the journey of death to the aakhira' is inevitable and unavoidable. However, sooner or later, because of our old age or illness, or that of someone we love, or the news of the death of someone in the community, we are forced to face the reality of death, realising the need for preparation for the journey. According to an old fable, a man made an unusual agreement with Izraeel - the angel of...

Translaition of Kashf al-yaqin virtues of Maula ali(a.s) Author: Jamal al-Din ibn Yusuf 'Allamah Hilli Translaitor: Dr. 'Ali Akbar Aghili Ashtiani `Ali’s Generosity and Magnanimity Beyond doubt, Imam `Ali was the most generous and the most honest man after the Holy Prophet (s.a) for the highest degree of generosity is to offer one’s life and `Ali, by lying in the bed of the Holy Prophet at Laylat al-Mabit , sacrificed his life for the sake of the Messenger of Allah. Ibn Athir reports: The Qur’anic verse “And among men is he who sells himself to seek the pleasure of Allah” (2:207) was revealed about Imam `Ali when the Holy Prophet (s.a) left Mecca for Medina, ordering `Ali to lie in his bed and to transfer people’s trust to them the next day. This was at a time when the atheists of Quraysh had brotherhood between you, making the life of one of you ...
