During this holy month we should maintain our daily life according to the rules of Islam and always think for the betterment of our self along with our family members and all other Muslims all over the World.
They would deceive Allah and those who believe, and they deceive none but themselves; only they perceive it not.(Al Quran, Sura Al-Baqarah– 10)
In their hearts was a disease, and Allah has increased their disease to them; and for them is a grievous punishment because they lied. (Al Quran, Sura Al-Baqarah– 11)
Narrated by Abu Syed Khudri(RA:) The Prophet(S:) said, "When the people of Paradise will enter the Paradise and the people of Hell will go to the Hell, Allah will order those who have had faith equal to the weight of a grain of mustard seed to be taken out from the Hell. So they will be taken out but (by then) they will be blackened. Then they will be put into the river of Haya' (rain) or Hayat (life) (the Narrator is in doubt as to which is the right term), and they will revive like a grain that grows near the bank of a flood channel. Don't you see that it comes out yellow and twisted"
Narrated Abu Huraira(RA:) : The Prophet(S:) said, "Religion is very easy and whoever overburdens himself in his religion will not be able to continue in that way. So you should not be extremists, but try to be near to perfection and receive the good tidings that you will be rewarded; and gain strength by worshipping in the mornings, the nights." (See Fath-ul-Bari, Page 102, Vol 1).
"ALHAMDULILLAH" BISMILLAHIR RAHMANIR RAHIM "Hadith" Narreted by Ibn 'Umar(RA:) The Prophet(Sallalahalaihi Sallam) said,: "I have been ordered by Allah to fight against the people until they testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad(Sallalahalaihi Sallam) is his Prophet, and offer the prayers perfectly and give the obligatory charity, so if they perform that, then they save their lives an property from me except for Islamic laws and then their settlement of account will be done by Allah." (Bukhari)
“Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem” Volume 7, Book 72, Number 817 : Narrated by 'Aisha(RA:) An Ansari girl was married and she became sick and all her hair fell out intending to provide her with false hair. They asked the Prophet(Sallalahalaihi Sallam) who said, "Allah has cursed the lady who artificially lengthens (her or someone else's) hair and also the one who gets her hair lengthened."
"Bismillaheer Rahmanir Raheem" "Those whose efforts have been wasted in this life, though they thought that they were gaining good by their deeds?" (Al-Quran: Al-Kahf – 104)
“Bismillaheer Rahmanir Raheem” Do the Unbelievers think that they can take My servants as protectors besides Me? Say: "Shall we tell you of those who lose most in respect of their deeds?- "Those whose efforts have been wasted in this life, while they thought that they were acquiring good by their deeds?" (Al-Quran: Al-Kahf – 102-104) PP
“Bismillaheer Rahmanir Raheem” It is narrated on the authority of Ibn 'Abbas(RA:) that when the Prophet (may peace be upon him) sent Mu'adh(RA:) towards Yemen (as governor) and advised him: you would reach a community of the people of the Book, the very first thing to which you should call them is the worship of Allah(Sob:), may His Glory be Magnificent, and when they become fully aware of Allah, instruct them that He has ordered for five times prayers on them during the day and the night, and when the begin observing it, then instruct them to truly Allah(Sob:) has made Zakat obligatory for them which would be collected from the wealthy amongst them and distributed to their needy ones, and when they submit to it, then collect it from them and avoid (the temptation) of selecting the best (items) of their riches. Shahee Bukharee – 28

The Prophet(may peace be upon him) said: (Not to speak of beverages, I would lay stress) that you should not drink the wine jars. They said: Apostle of Allah, may Allah enable us to lay down our lives for you, do you know what al-naqir is? The Prophet(may peace be upon him) replied: Yes, it is a stump which you hollow out in the middle, and added: Do not use gourd’s receptacle for drink. Use water-skin the mouth of which is tied with a thong made for this purpose. – (26)
“Bismillheer Rahmaneer Raheem” “Alhamdulillah” And a revelation from Him Who created the earth and the high heavens. He is the Gracious Allah(Sob:) Who has settled Himself on the Throne. To Him belongs whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is in the earth, and whatsoever is between them, and whatsoever is beneath the moist subsoil. And if you speak aloud, it makes no difference, for He knows the secret thought and what is yet more hidden. Allah(Sob:) — there is no Worship but Allah(Sob:) . He has the most beautiful names. (Al Quran: 20:5-9)
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem) Narrated Abu Huraira(RA:) The Prophet(SALLALAHU ALEYHESALLAM) said, "The signs of a hypocrite are three: 1. Whenever he speaks, he tells a lie. 2. Whenever he promises, he always breaks it (his promise ). 3. If you trust him, he proves to be dishonest. (If you keep something as a trust with him, he will not return it.)" –(SHAHEE BUKHAREE)
Bismil LLaheer Rahmneer Raheem" Making Picture : Narrated by 'Abdullah bin 'Umar(RA:) : I heard Muhammad(S A W) saying, "Whoever makes a picture in this world will be asked to put life into it on the Day of Resurrection, but he will not be able to do that."
Those who violate Allah’s(Sob:) covenant after its confirmation, and sever what God has commanded to be joined, and commit evil on earth. These are the losers. How can you deny God, when you were dead and He gave you life, then He will put you to death, then He will bring you to life, then to Him you will be returned? - Sura Baquaraha- 27-28
Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem” Narrated by 'Abdullah bin 'Umar(RA:) : A person asked Allah's Apostle . "What (sort of) deeds in or (what qualities) of Islam are good ?" The Prophet(S.A.W.) replied : "To feed the poor and greet those whom you know and those whom you don not know." - Shahi Bukhari.
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" hose who love that immorality should spread among the believers, will have a painful punishment in this world and the Hereafter. And Allah knows, and you do not know. And but for the grace of Allah and His mercy upon you and the fact that Allah is Compassionate and Merciful, you would have been ruined. O ye who believe! follow not the footsteps of Satan, and whoever follows the footsteps of Satan should know that he surely enjoins immorality and manifest evil. And but for the grace of Allah and His mercy upon you, not one of you would ever be pure, but Allah purifies whom as He pleases. And Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.- Sura Nur,20-22
Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" And thy Lord knows what their breasts keep secret, and what they reveal. And He is Allah; there is no God but Allah. To Him belongs all praise in the beginning and the Hereafter. His is the judgment and to Him shall you be brought back. Say, ‘Tell me, if Allah make the night continue over you till the Day of rising from the dead, what God is there besides Allah(Sob:) who could bring you light? Will you not listen yet?’ Say, ‘Tell me, if Allah make the day continue over you till the Day of rising from the dead, what God is there besides Allah(Sob:) who could bring you a night wherein you could rest? Will you not then see yet?’ (Al-Quran, 28, 69–73)
“Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem” These are verses of the Book of Wisdom, A guidance and a mercy for those who do good, Those who observe Prayer and pay the Zakat and who have firm faith in the Hereafter. It is they who follow guidance from their Lord, and it is they who shall prosper. And of men is he who takes idle tales in exchange for guidance to lead men astray from the path of Allah, without knowledge, and to make fun of it. For such there will be humiliating punishment. And when Our Signs are recited to him, he turns proudly away, as though he heard them not, as if there were a heaviness in both his ears. So announce to him a painful punishment. Surely those who believe and do good works — they will have Gardens of Delight, Wherein they will abide. Allah has made a true promise; and He is the Mighty, the Wise. He has created the heavens without any pillars that you can see, and He has placed in the earth firm mountains that it may not quake with you, and He has scattered therein all kinds of creatures; and We have sent down water from the clouds, and caused to grow therein every noble species. This is the creation of Allah. Now show me what others beside Him have created. Nay, but the wrongdoers are in manifest error.- Al Quran, 31,4-12
“Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem” And they say, ‘What! when we are lost in the earth, shall we then become a new creation?’ Nay, but they are disbelievers in the meeting of their Lord. Say, ‘The angel of death that has been put in charge of you will cause you to die; then to your Lord will you be brought back.’ If only thou couldst see when the guilty will hang down their heads before their Lord, and say, ‘Our Lord, we have seen and we have heard, so send us back that we may do good works; for now we are convinced.’ And if We had enforced Our will, We could have given every soul its guidance, but the word from Me has come true: ‘I will fill Hell with Jinn and men all together.’ Al Quran, 32, 11-14
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" O Prophet, strive against the disbelievers and the hypocrites. And be severe to them. The Hell will be their last destination and how Harsh place is it. They swear by Allah that they said nothing, but they did certainly use blasphemous language, and disbelieved after they had embraced Islam. And they meditated that which they could not attain. And they cherished hatred only because Allah and His Messenger had enriched them out of His hatred. So if they repent, it will be better for them; but if they turn away, Allah will punish them with a grievous punishment in this world and the Hereafter, and they And among them there are those who made a covenant with Allah, saying, ‘If He give us of His bounty, we would most surely give alms and be of the virtuous.’ Al-Quran - 9, 73-75
“Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem” And those who disbelieve say: ‘Listen not to this Qur’an, but make noise during its recital that you may have the upper hand.’ And most certainly We will make those who disbelieve taste a severe punishment, and most certainly, We will requite them for the worst of their deeds. That is the reward of the enemies of Allah — the Fire. For them there will be an abiding home therein as a requital because they used to deny Our Signs. And those who disbelieve will say, ‘Our Lord, show us those who led us astray from among both the Jinn and men, that we may put them under our feet so that both of them may become of the lowest.’ As for those who say, ‘Our Lord is Allah,’ and then remain steadfastly, the angels descend on them, saying: ‘do not fear, nor grieve; and rejoice in the Garden that you were promised. ‘We are your friends in this life and in the Hereafter. Therein you will have all that your souls will desire, and therein you will have all that you will ask for — ‘An entertainment from the Most Forgiving, the Merciful.’ (Al Quran-41, 27-33)
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" And who is better in speech than he who invites men to Allah and does good works and says, ‘I am surely of those who surrender!’ And good and evil are not equal. Repel evil with that which is best. And lo, he between whom and thyself was enmity will become as though he were a warm friend. But none is granted it save those who are steadfast; and none is granted it save those who possess a large share of good. And if an incitement from Satan incite thee, then seek refuge in Allah. Surely He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing. And among His Signs are the night and the day and the sun and the moon. Prostrate not yourselves before the sun, nor before the moon, but prostrate yourselves before Allah, Who created them, if it is Him Whom you really worship. (Al Quran- 41, 34-38)
“Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem” As a mercy from thy Lord. Verily, He is the All-Hearing, the All-knowing, The Lord of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them, if you would only have faith. There is no Worship but He. He gives life and He causes death. He is your Lord, and the Lord of your forefathers. Yet they(disbelievers) play about in doubt. (Al-Quran-44, 07-10)
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" But watch thou for the day when the sky will bring forth a visible smoke, That will envelop the people. This will be a painful physical and mental suffering. Then will the people cry: ‘Our Lord, remove from us the torment; truly, we are believers.’ - (Al-Quran-44, 11-13)
“Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem” Say, ‘It is Allah Who gives you life, then causes you to die; then He will gather you together unto the Day of Resurrection about which there is no doubt. But most men know not.’ To Allah belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth; and on the day when the Hour will come, on that day those who follow falsehood will be the losers. And thou wilt see every people on their knees. Every people will be summoned to their record, and it shall be said to them, ‘This day shall you be able to make return for that which you did. ‘This is Our Book; it speaks against you with truth. We caused all that you did to be fully recorded.’ Now as for those who believed and did good works, their Lord will admit them into His mercy. That is the clear achievement. (Al Quran-45, 27-31)
“Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem” “Alhamdulillah” Do not forget to be grateful to Allah(Sob), because you have eyes to read the ‘Holy Quran’, to see all the creatures Of our Lord and so many. Say “Alhamdulillah” and be grateful to the Almighty!
Muslims in our Country believe that the Month of Holy Ramadan will start on Sunday. During this holy month we should try to be honest and avoid unnecessary talking and work for the welfare family members and all other Muslims all over the World. Have a peaceful Ramadan!
Narrated Abu Huraira(RA): The Prophet(SAW) said: "Whoever does not give up forged speech and evil actions, Allah is not in need of leaving his food and drink (i.e. Allah will not accept his fasting.)"
Narrated Ibn 'Umar(RA) : The Prophet(SAW) said: Islam is based on the following five principles : 1. To testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and Muhammad(SAW:) is Allah's “Rasul”. 2. To offer the prayers dutifully and perfectly. 3. To pay Zakat (i.e. obligatory charity) . 4. To perform Hajj. (i.e. Pilgrimage to Mecca) 5. To observe fast during the month of Holy Ramadan. – Shahi Bukhari
Only the verbal declaration of faith is not enough, for belief in Allah makes obedience to Allah(Sob). We might be Fear of Allah(Sob) and obedience and follow the “Sunnah” of our Leader “Hazrat Muhammad(SAW)”. We should live our daily life as directed by the Holy Quran and the Hadith.
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" From the end moment of “Sheree” (starting of the fasting) until the sun sets behind the horizon, we should avoid eating anything, drinking anything, having sex, smoking, backbiting, finding others fault, criticisms to others etc. Then as soon as the sun sets, you should break the fasting. While fasting it may be possible to sneak away and eat in private but we should remember that Allah(Sob:) sees everything we do. So, following the fast properly increases the awareness of the fear of our Lord Allah(Sob:) who sees all our activities both secret and open.
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" O you men, worship your Lord Who created you and those Who were before you, that you may become righteous Who made the earth a bed for you, and the heaven a roof, and caused water to come down from the clouds and therewith brought forth fruits for your food. Set not up, therefore, equals to Allah, while you know. And if you are in doubt as to what We have sent down to Our servant, then produce a Chapter like it, and call upon your helpers beside Allah, if you are truthful.– Al-Quran 2,22-24
“Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem” Certainly there was for you a Sign in the two armies that encountered each other, one army fighting in the cause of Allah and the other disbelieving, whom they saw to be twice as many as themselves, actually with their eyes. Thus Allah strengthens with His help whomsoever He pleases. In that surely is a lesson for those who have eyes. Beautified for men is the love of desired things — women and children, and stored-up a big amount of gold and silver, and pastured horses and cattle and crops. That is the provision of the present life; but it is Allah with Whom is an excellent home. Say, ‘Shall I inform you of something better than that?’ For those who fear God, there are Gardens with their Lord, below which rivers flow; therein shall they abide; and pure spouses and Allah’s pleasure. And Allah is taking care of His servants, Those who say, ‘Our Lord, we do believe; forgive us, therefore, our sins and save us from the punishment of the Fire;’ AlQuran-3, 14-17
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" Those who disbelieve — their possessions and their children shall not help them at all against Allah; and it is they that are the fuel of the Fire. Their case is like the case of the people of Pharaoh and those before them; they rejected Our Signs; so Allah punished them for their sins, and Allah is serious in punishing. Say to those who disbelieve, ‘You shall be prevail over and gathered from Hell; and an evil place of rest it is.’ Certainly there was for you a Sign in the two armies that encountered each other, one army fighting in the cause of Allah and the other disbelieving, whom they saw to be twice as many as themselves, actually with their eyes. Thus Allah strengthens with His aid whomsoever He pleases. In that surely is a lesson for those who have eyes. Beautified for men is the love of desired things — women and children, and stored-up large number of gold and silver, and grassland for horses and cattle and crops. That is the provision of the present life; but it is Allah with Whom is an excellent home. Say, ‘Shall I inform you of something better than that?’ For those who fear Allah, there are Gardens with their Lord, under which rivers flow; therein shall they abide; and pure spouses and Allah’s pleasure. And Allah is Mindful of His servants, Those who say, ‘Our Lord, we do believe; forgive us, therefore, our sins and save us from the punishment of the Fire;’ – Al-Quran 3,11-17
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" Whatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth glorifies Allah; His is the kingdom and His the praise, and He has power over all things.
It is He Who has created you, but some of you are disbelievers and some of you are believers; and Allah sees what you do.
He created the heavens and the earth with truth, and He shaped you and made your shapes beautiful, and to Him is the ultimate return.
He knows whatever is in the heavens and the earth, and He knows what you conceal and what you disclose; and Allah knows full well all that is in the breasts. – The Holy Quaran 64, (1-5)
Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Rahim" O you, who believes! Do not profane the Signs of Allah, nor the Sacred Month, nor the animals brought as an offering, nor the animals of sacrifice wearing collars, nor those repairing to the Sacred House, seeking grace from their Lord, and His pleasure. And when you put off the pilgrims’ garb and are clear of the Sacred Territory, you may hunt. And let not the enmity of a people, that they hindered you from the Sacred Mosque, incite you to transgress. And help one another in righteousness and piety; but not help one another in sin and do not cross their limited, And fear Allah; surely, Allah is rigorous and harsh in punishment.
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" Say, ‘You do not await for us anything except one of the two good things; while as regards you, we await that Allah will distressed you with a punishment either from Himself or at our hands. Wait then; we also are waiting with you’. Say, ‘Spend willingly or unwillingly, it will not be accepted from you. You are indeed a disobedient people.’ And nothing has prevent them of the acceptance of their contributions save that they disbelieve in Allah and His Messenger. And they do not come to Prayer except unwillingly and they make no contribution save reluctantly. So let not their wealth nor their children excite thy wonder. Allah only intends to punish them therewith in the present life and that their souls may depart while they are disbelievers. The Holy Quran–Al-Taubah, 52-55
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" And remember what is rehearsed in your houses of the Signs of Allah and of wisdom. Truly Allah is the Knower of subtleties, All-Aware. Surely, men who submit themselves to Allah and women who submit themselves to Him, and believing men and believing women, and obedient men and obedient women and truthful men and truthful women, and men steadfast in their faith and steadfast women, and men who are humble and women who are humble, and men who give alms and women who give alms, and men who fast and women who fast, and men who guard their chastity and women who guard their chastity, and men who remember Allah much and women who remember Him — Allah has prepared for all of them forgiveness and a great reward. And it behoves not a believing man or a believing woman, when Allah and His Messenger have decided a matter, that there should be a choice for them in the matter concerning them. And whoso disobeys Allah and His Messenger, surely strays away in manifest error. And remember when thou didst say to him on whom Allah had bestowed favors and on whom thou also had bestowed favors: ‘Keep thy wife to thyself, and fear Allah.’ And thou didst conceal in thy heart what Allah was going to bring to light, and thou wast afraid of the people, whereas Allah has better right that thou should fear Him. Then, when Zaid had accomplished his wife want of her so as to have no further need of her, We joined her in marriage to thee, so that there may be no hindrance for the believers with regard to the wives of their adopted sons, when they have accomplished their want of them. And Allah’s decree must be fulfilled. There can be no hindrance for the Prophet with regard to that which Allah has made incumbent upon him. Such indeed was the way of Allah with those who have passed away before — and the command of Allah is a decree ordained —Those who delivered the Messages of Allah and feared Him, and feared none but Allah. And sufficient is Allah as a Reckoner. Muhammad is not the father of any of your men, but he is the Messenger of Allah and the Seal of the Prophets; and Allah has full knowledge of all things. O you who believe! remember Allah with much remembrance; And glorify Him morning and evening. He it is Who sends blessings on you, as do His angels, that He may bring you forth from all kinds of darkness into light. And He is Merciful to the believers. Their greeting on the day when they meet Him will be, ‘Peace.’ And He has prepared for them an honorable reward. O Prophet, truly We have sent you as a Witness, and Bearer of glad news, and a Warner, And as a Summoner unto Allah by His command, and as a Lamp that gives bright light. And announce to the believers the glad news that they will have great reward from Allah. And follow not the disbelievers and the hypocrites, and leave alone their annoyance, and put you trust in Allah; for Allah is sufficient as a Guardian. The Holy Quran 33: 35-49
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" O you who believe! when you marry believing women and then divorce them before you have touched them, then you have no right against them with regard to the period of waiting that you reckon. So make some provision for them and send them away in a good-looking manner. Whether you reveal a thing or conceal it, Allah knows all things full well. There is no blame on them in this respect with regard to their fathers or their sons or their brothers or the sons of their brothers or the sons of their sisters or their womenfolk or those whom their right hands possess. And fear Allah, O wives of the Prophet, verily, Allah is Witness over all things. Allah and His angels send blessings on the Prophet. O you who believe! you also should invoke blessings on him and salute him with the salutation of peace. Verily, those who malign Allah and His Messenger — Allah has cursed them in this world and in the Hereafter, and has prepared for them an abasing punishment. And those who malign believing men and believing women for what they have not earned shall bear the guilt of a malicious and a manifest sin. O Prophet! tell thy wives and thy daughters and the women of the believers that they should draw close to them portions of their loose outer coverings. That is nearer that they may thus be distinguished and not molested. And Allah is Most Forgiving, Merciful. - The Holy Quran 33: 50, 55-60
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" O you people! fear your Lord, Who created you from a single soul and created there from its mate, and from them twain spread many men and women; and fear Allah, in Whose name you appeal to one another, and fear Him particularly respecting ties of relationship. Truly, Allah watches over you. - Al Quran, 4: 02
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" And We shall present Hell that day for Unbelievers and all spread out after seeing this,- (Unbelievers) whose eyes had been under a veil from remembrance of Me, and who had been unable even to hear. Do the Unbelievers think that they can take My servants as protectors besides Me? Truly We have prepared Hell for the Unbelievers for (their) entertainment. Say: "Shall we tell you of those who lose most in respect of their deeds?- "Those whose efforts have been wasted in this life, while they thought that they were acquiring good by their acts?" They are those who deny the Signs of their Lord and the fact of their having to meet Him (in the Hereafter): their works will be vain, nor shall We, on the Day of Judgment, give them any weight. That is their reward, Hell, because they rejected Faith, and took My Signs and My Messengers by way of jest. As to those who believe and work righteous deeds, they have, for their entertainment, the Gardens of Paradise Wherein they shall dwell (for aye): no change will they wish for from them. Say: "If the ocean were ink (wherewith to write out) the words of my Lord, sooner would the ocean be exhausted than would the words of my Lord, even if we added another ocean like it, for its aid." Say: "I am but a man like yourselves, (but) the inspiration has come to me, that your Allah is the one Allah: whoever expects to meet his Lord, let him work righteousness, and in the worship of his Lord, admit no one as partner. - The Holy Quran:18:100-110.

"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" And who is more unjust than he who is reminded of the Signs of his Lord, but turns away from them, and forgets what his hands have sent forward? Verily, We have placed veils over their hearts that they understand it not, and in their ears a deafness. And if thou call them to guidance, they will never accept it. And thy Lord is Most Forgiving, full of mercy. If He were to seize them for what they have earned, then surely He would have hastened the punishment for them. But they have an appointed time from which they will find no refuge. And these towns — We destroyed them when they committed iniquities. And We appointed a fixed time for their destruction. - The Holy Quran:18: 58-60
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" Verily, We created man from an extract of clay; Then We placed him as a drop of sperm in a safe depository; Then We fashioned the sperm into a clot; then We fashioned the clot into ashapeless lump; then We fashioned bones out of this shapeless lump; then We clothed the bones with flesh; then We developed it into another creation. So blessed be Allah, the Best of creators. Then after that you must surely die. Then on the Day of Resurrection will you be raised up. And We have created above you seven heavens lying one above the other, and We are never neglectful of the creation. And We sent down water from the sky according to measure, and We caused it to stay in the earth — and surely it is We Who determine its taking away —And We produced for you thereby gardens of date-palms and vines; for you therein are abundant fruits; and of them you eat.- The Holy Quran: 23:13-20.
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" Then We sent Moses and his brother Haron, with Our Signs and a clear authority, To Pharaoh and his chiefs; but they behaved arrogantly and they were a haughty people. And they said, ‘Shall we believe in two men like ourselves while their people are our servants?’ So they called them liars, and they were of those who were destroyed. And We gave Moses the Book, that they might be guided. O ye Messengers, eat of the things that are pure, and do good works. Verily, I am well aware of what you do. And know that this community of yours is one community, and I am your Lord. So take Me as your Protector. But they (the people) have cut up their affairs among themselves forming themselves into parties, each group rejoicing in what they have.So leave them in their confusion for a time. Do they think that by the wealth and children with which We help them, We hasten to do them good? And even, but they do not understand.Verily, those who fear their Lord, holding Him in reverence, And those who believe in the Signs of their Lord, And those who ascribe not partners to their Lord, And those who give what they give while their hearts are full of fear because to their Lord they will return — These it is who hasten to do good works, and these it is who are foremost in them. And We do not burden any soul beyond its capacity, and with Us is a Book that speaks the truth, and they will not be wronged. - The Holy Quran: 23:46-63.
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" And even, their hearts are utterly heedless of this Book, and besides that they have deeds in which they are engaged; Until, when We seize those of them who indulge in luxury with punishment, behold, they cry for help. ‘Cry not for help this day, surely you shall not be helped by Us. ‘Truly, My Signs were recited unto you, but you used to turn back on your heels, ‘Big with pride, telling stories about it (the Qur’an) by night, talking nonsense.’ Have they not, then, pondered over the Divine Word, or has that come unto them which came not to their fathers of old? Or do they not recognize their Messenger, that they thus deny him? Or do they say, there is madness in him? Nay, he has brought them the truth, and most of them hate the truth. And if the Truth had followed their desires, verily, the heavens and the earth and whosoever is therein would have been corrupted. Nay, We have brought them their admonition, but from their own admonition they now turn aside. Or dost thou ask of them any reward? But the reward of thy Lord is best; and He is the Best of providers. And most surely thou invest them to a right path. - The Holy Quran: 23: 64-74.
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" And those who do not believe in the Hereafter, are indeed deviating from that path. And if We had mercy on them and relieved them of their affliction, they would still persist in their transgression, wandering blindly. We did seize them with punishment, but they humbled not themselves to their Lord, nor would they supplicate in lowliness. Until, when We open on them a gate of severe as tisement, behold, they are in despair thereat. And He it is Who has created for you ears, and eyes, and ears; but little thanks do you give. And He it is Who has multiplied you in the earth, and unto Him shall you be gathered. And He it is Who gives life and causes death, and in His hands is the alternation of night and day. Will you not then understand? But they say like what the former people said. They say, ‘What! when we are dead and have become mere dust and bones, shall we indeed be raised up again? ‘This is what we have been promised before, we and our fathers. This is nothing but fables of the ancients.’ Say, ‘To whom belongs the earth and whosoever is therein, if you know?’ ‘To Allah’, they will say. Say, ‘Will you not then be admonished?’ Say, ‘Who is the Lord of the seven heavens, and the Lord of the Great Throne?’ They will say, ‘They are Allah’s.’ Say, ‘Will you not then take Him as your Protector? Say, ‘In Whose hand is the dominion over all things and Who protects, but against Whom there is not protection, if you know?’ – The Holy Quran: 23:75-89.
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" They will say, ‘All this belongs to Allah.’ Say, ‘How then are you mislead?’ Yea, We have brought them the truth, and they are certainly liars. Allah has not taken unto Himself any son, nor is there any other God along with Him; in that case each god would have taken away what he had created, and some of them would surely have dominated over others. Glorified be Allah above all that which they attribute to Him! Knower of the unseen and of the seen! Exalted therefore is He above all that which they associate with Him! Say, ‘My Lord, if Thou wilt show me that with which they are threatened. ‘My Lord, then place me not with the wrongdoing people.’ And certainly We have the power to show thee that with which We threaten them. Repel evil with that which is best. We are well acquainted with the things they allege. And say, ‘My Lord, I seek refuge in Thee from the incitements of the evil ones. ‘And I seek refuge in Thee, my Lord, lest they come near me.’ Until, when death comes to one of them, he says entreating, ‘My Lord, send me back, ‘That I may do righteous deeds in the life that I have left behind.’ Never, it is but a word that he utters. And behind them is a barrier until the day when they shall be raised again.- The Holy Quran: 23:90-101.
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem" And when the trumpet is blown, there will be no ties of relationship between them that day, nor will they ask after one another. Then those whose good works are heavy — these will be prosperous; But those whose good works are light — these are they who ruin their souls; in Hell will they abide. The Fire will burn their faces and they will grin with fear therein. ‘Were not My Signs recited unto you, and you treated them as lies?’ They will say, ‘Our Lord, our wickedness overcame us, and we were an erring people. ‘Our Lord, take us out of this, then if we return to disobedience, we shall indeed be wrongdoers. Allah will say, “Away with you, despised therein, and speak not from Me. “There was a party from among My servants who said, ‘Our Lord, we believe; forgive us therefore our sins, and have mercy on us; for Thou art the Best of those who show mercy.’ “But you made them a laughing stock until they became the cause of your forgetting My remembrance while you continued laughing at them. “I have rewarded them this day for their steadfastness so that they alone have triumphed.” Allah will say, ‘What number of years did you stayed in the earth?’ They will say, ‘We stayed for a day or part of a day, but ask those who keep count.’ He will say, ‘You stayed but a little, if only you knew! ‘Did you then think that We had created you without purpose, and that you would not be brought back to Us?’ Exalted then be Allah, the True Lord. There is no Worship but He, The Lord of the Glorious Throne. - The Holy Quran: 23:102-117.
Kuakata Kuakata (Bengali: কুয়াকাটা) is a panoramic sea beach and village[1] on the southernmost tip of Bangladesh.[2] Located in the Patuakhali district, Kuakata has a wide sandy beach from where one can see both the sunrise and sunset. It is about 320 Kilometers south of Dhaka, the capital, and about 70 Kilometers from the district headquarters. The Kuakata beach is 30 km long and 6 km wide. On 13 September 2007 government had announced a red alert in Kuakata as caution for a possible Tsunami Kuakata offers a full view of the sunrise and sunset from the same white sandy beach in the water of the Bay of Bengal. Locally known as Shagor Kannya (Daughter of ocean), the long strip of dark, marbled sand stretches for about 30 km. The long and wide beach at Kuakata has a typical natural setting. This sandy beach has gentle slopes into the Bay of Bengal. Kuakata is also a sanctuary for migratory winter birds. On the eastern end of the beach is Gongamati Reserved Forest, an evergreen mangrove forest and snippet of the original Kuakata. When the Rakhines settled in the area in 1784, Kuakata was part of the larger Sundarbans forest. However, the Sundarbans is now at a distance of one-hour by speed boat. As a mangrove forest, Gongamati, like the Sundarbans, offers some protection against tidal surges, however it too is being threatened by logging and deforestation. The best way to reach the forest is by foot or bike along the beach, where a flock of flag flying fishing boats can be seen trawling the coast. Choosing to visit Gangamati in the late afternoon is a perfect time to watch the sun caste shadows on the abstract exposed mangrove roots. Kuakata is the place of pilgrimage for both Hindu and Buddhist communities. Innumerable devotees arrive here at the festival of 'Rush Purnima' and 'Maghi Purnima'. On these two occasions the pilgrims take holy bath at the bay and participate in the traditional fairs.[5]One may also visit the 100 years old Buddhist Temple where the statue of Goutama Buddha and two wells of 200 years old are located. he government and local business owners have made significant developments over the years to attract tourist to its shores. Nowadays, local people are more supportive to the tourists and communications have improved significantly. A new Police station was built in 2007. Accordingly, the law and order situation in the open beach, even at night, has improved significantly.

Narrated By Al-Miqdad bin 'Amr Al-Kindi : An ally of Bani Zuhra who took part in the battle of Badr with the Prophet(SWS), that he said, "O Allah's Apostle! If I meet an unbeliever and we have a fight, and he strikes my hand with the sword and cuts it off, and then takes refuge from me under a tree, and says, 'I have surrendered to Allah (i.e. embraced Islam),' may I kill him after he has said so?" The Prophet(SWS) said, "Do not kill him." Al-Miqdad said, "But O Allah's Apostle! He had chopped off one of my hands and he said that after he had cut it off. May I kill him?" The Prophet(SWS) said. "Do not kill him for if you kill him, he would be in the position in which you had been before you kill him, and you would be in the position in which he was before he said the sentence."
Eid ul-Fitr is observed over a three-day public holiday in Bangladesh. Educational institutions, banks and corporate offices usually remain closed for a week during this time. Bangladeshi observe the holiday by performing the obligatory Eid prayers on the morning of Eid, giving Zakat ul Fitr, and visiting friends and relatives. Popular customs also include ladies decorating one's hands with henna, dressing up in new clothes and having a good meal with family and friends.
All Muslims dress in the clothing(Panjabee, Pazama and other dress) and children also dressed with the colorful clothing and received gifts from their seniors on this day.
Eid-ul-Fitr is the first day of the Islamic month of Shawwal. It marks the end of Ramadan, which is a month of fasting and prayer. Many Muslims attend communal prayers, listen to a Khutba (sermon) and give zakat al-fitre (charity in the form of food) during Eid ul-Fitr.
Many Muslims attend communal prayers and listen to a Khutba or sermon on the first day of the month of Shawwal. These prayers are held outside or in large venues, such as ‘Eidgha’ Mosque and others open fields. Many Muslims may travel far to participate in these activities. Some communities organize different festivities, such as communal meals or events for children, on this day. If a Muslim has not given zakat al-fitr during Ramadan, he or she can give this on Eid-al-Fitr. Zakat al-fitr is a form of charity consisting of a quantity of food, such as barley, dates, raisins or wheat flour, or its monetary equivalent given to the poor. Many Muslims may also prepare festive meals to share, wear new clothes, visit relatives and give presents or candy to children. Cards can also be sent, often featuring the words “Eid Mubbarak” (blessed Eid).

ReplyDeleteWhatever is in the heavens and whatever is in the earth glorifies Allah; His is the kingdom and His the praise, and He has power over all things.
It is He Who has created you, but some of you are disbelievers and some of you are believers; and Allah sees what you do.
He created the heavens and the earth with truth, and He shaped you and made your shapes beautiful, and to Him is the ultimate return.
He knows whatever is in the heavens and the earth, and He knows what you conceal and what you disclose; and Allah knows full well all that is in the breasts. – The Holy Quaran 64, (1-5)

ReplyDeleteO you, who believes! Do not profane the Signs of Allah, nor the Sacred Month, nor the animals brought as an offering, nor the animals of sacrifice wearing collars, nor those repairing to the Sacred House, seeking grace from their Lord, and His pleasure. And when you put off the pilgrims’ garb and are clear of the Sacred Territory, you may hunt. And let not the enmity of a people, that they hindered you from the Sacred Mosque, incite you to transgress. And help one another in righteousness and piety; but not help one another in sin and do not cross their limited, And fear Allah; surely, Allah is rigorous and harsh in punishment.
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem"
ReplyDeleteSay, ‘You do not await for us anything except one of the two good things; while as regards you, we await that Allah will distressed you with a punishment either from Himself or at our hands. Wait then; we also are waiting with you’. Say, ‘Spend willingly or unwillingly, it will not be accepted from you. You are indeed a disobedient people.’ And nothing has prevent them of the acceptance of their contributions save that they disbelieve in Allah and His Messenger. And they do not come to Prayer except unwillingly and they make no contribution save reluctantly. So let not their wealth nor their children excite thy wonder. Allah only intends to punish them therewith in the present life and that their souls may depart while they are disbelievers. The Holy Quran–Al-Taubah, 52-55
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem"
ReplyDeleteAnd remember what is rehearsed in your houses of the Signs of Allah and of wisdom. Truly Allah is the Knower of subtleties, All-Aware. Surely, men who submit themselves to Allah and women who submit themselves to Him, and believing men and believing women, and obedient men and obedient women and truthful men and truthful women, and men steadfast in their faith and steadfast women, and men who are humble and women who are humble, and men who give alms and women who give alms, and men who fast and women who fast, and men who guard their chastity and women who guard their chastity, and men who remember Allah much and women who remember Him — Allah has prepared for all of them forgiveness and a great reward. And it behoves not a believing man or a believing woman, when Allah and His Messenger have decided a matter, that there should be a choice for them in the matter concerning them. And whoso disobeys Allah and His Messenger, surely strays away in manifest error. And remember when thou didst say to him on whom Allah had bestowed favors and on whom thou also had bestowed favors: ‘Keep thy wife to thyself, and fear Allah.’ And thou didst conceal in thy heart what Allah was going to bring to light, and thou wast afraid of the people, whereas Allah has better right that thou should fear Him. Then, when Zaid had accomplished his wife want of her so as to have no further need of her, We joined her in marriage to thee, so that there may be no hindrance for the believers with regard to the wives of their adopted sons, when they have accomplished their want of them. And Allah’s decree must be fulfilled. There can be no hindrance for the Prophet with regard to that which Allah has made incumbent upon him. Such indeed was the way of Allah with those who have passed away before — and the command of Allah is a decree ordained —Those who delivered the Messages of Allah and feared Him, and feared none but Allah. And sufficient is Allah as a Reckoner. Muhammad is not the father of any of your men, but he is the Messenger of Allah and the Seal of the Prophets; and Allah has full knowledge of all things. O you who believe! remember Allah with much remembrance; And glorify Him morning and evening. He it is Who sends blessings on you, as do His angels, that He may bring you forth from all kinds of darkness into light. And He is Merciful to the believers. Their greeting on the day when they meet Him will be, ‘Peace.’ And He has prepared for them an honorable reward. O Prophet, truly We have sent you as a Witness, and Bearer of glad news, and a
Warner, And as a Summoner unto Allah by His command, and as a Lamp that gives bright light. And announce to the believers the glad news that they will have great reward from Allah. And follow not the disbelievers and the hypocrites, and leave alone their annoyance, and put you trust in Allah; for Allah is sufficient as a Guardian. The Holy Quran 33: 35-49
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem"
ReplyDeleteO you who believe! when you marry believing women and then divorce them before you have touched them, then you have no right against them with regard to the period of waiting that you reckon. So make some provision for them and send them away in a good-looking manner. Whether you reveal a thing or conceal it, Allah knows all things full well. There is no blame on them in this respect with regard to their fathers or their sons or their brothers or the sons of their brothers or the sons of their sisters or their womenfolk or those whom their right hands possess. And fear Allah, O wives of the Prophet, verily, Allah is Witness over all things. Allah and His angels send blessings on the Prophet. O you who believe! you also should invoke blessings on him and salute him with the salutation of peace. Verily, those who malign Allah and His Messenger — Allah has cursed them in this world and in the Hereafter, and has prepared for them an abasing punishment. And those who malign believing men and believing women for what they have not earned shall bear the guilt of a malicious and a manifest sin. O Prophet! tell thy wives and thy daughters and the women of the believers that they should draw close to them portions of their loose outer coverings. That is nearer that they may thus be distinguished and not molested. And Allah is Most Forgiving, Merciful. - The Holy Quran 33: 50, 55-60

ReplyDeleteO you people! fear your Lord, Who created you from a single soul and created there from its mate, and from them twain spread many men and women; and fear Allah, in Whose name you appeal to one another, and fear Him particularly respecting ties of relationship. Truly, Allah watches over you. - Al Quran, 4: 02

ReplyDeleteAnd We shall present Hell that day for Unbelievers and all spread out after seeing this,- (Unbelievers) whose eyes had been under a veil from remembrance of Me, and who had been unable even to hear. Do the Unbelievers think that they can take My servants as protectors besides Me? Truly We have prepared Hell for the Unbelievers for (their) entertainment. Say: "Shall we tell you of those who lose most in respect of their deeds?- "Those whose efforts have been wasted in this life, while they thought that they were acquiring good by their acts?" They are those who deny the Signs of their Lord and the fact of their having to meet Him (in the Hereafter): their works will be vain, nor shall We, on the Day of Judgment, give them any weight. That is their reward, Hell, because they rejected Faith, and took My Signs and My Messengers by way of jest. As to those who believe and work righteous deeds, they have, for their entertainment, the Gardens of Paradise Wherein they shall dwell (for aye): no change will they wish for from them. Say: "If the ocean were ink (wherewith to write out) the words of my Lord, sooner would the ocean be exhausted than would the words of my Lord, even if we added another ocean like it, for its aid." Say: "I am but a man like yourselves, (but) the inspiration has come to me, that your Allah is the one Allah: whoever expects to meet his Lord, let him work righteousness, and in the worship of his Lord, admit no one as partner. - The Holy Quran:18:100-110.

ReplyDeleteAnd who is more unjust than he who is reminded of the Signs of his Lord, but turns away from them, and forgets what his hands have sent forward? Verily, We have placed veils over their hearts that they understand it not, and in their ears a deafness. And if thou call them to guidance, they will never accept it. And thy Lord is Most Forgiving, full of mercy. If He were to seize them for what they have earned, then surely He would have hastened the punishment for them. But they have an appointed time from which they will find no refuge. And these towns — We destroyed them when they committed iniquities. And We appointed a fixed time for their destruction. - The Holy Quran:18: 58-60

ReplyDeleteVerily, We created man from an extract of clay;
Then We placed him as a drop of sperm in a safe depository;
Then We fashioned the sperm into a clot; then We fashioned the clot into ashapeless lump; then We fashioned bones out of this shapeless lump; then We clothed the bones with flesh; then We developed it into another creation. So blessed be Allah, the Best of creators. Then after that you must surely die.
Then on the Day of Resurrection will you be raised up. And We have created above you seven heavens lying one above the other, and We are never neglectful of the creation. And We sent down water from the sky according to measure, and We caused it to stay in the earth — and surely it is We Who determine its taking away —And We produced for you thereby gardens of date-palms and vines; for you therein are abundant fruits; and of them you eat.- The Holy Quran: 23:13-20.
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem"
ReplyDeleteThen We sent Moses and his brother Haron, with Our Signs and a clear authority,
To Pharaoh and his chiefs; but they behaved arrogantly and they were a haughty people. And they said, ‘Shall we believe in two men like ourselves while their people are our servants?’ So they called them liars, and they were of those who were destroyed. And We gave Moses the Book, that they might be guided.
O ye Messengers, eat of the things that are pure, and do good works. Verily, I am well aware of what you do. And know that this community of yours is one community, and I am your Lord. So take Me as your Protector. But they (the people) have cut up their affairs among themselves forming themselves into parties, each group rejoicing in what they have.So leave them in their confusion for a time.
Do they think that by the wealth and children with which We help them, We hasten to do them good? And even, but they do not understand.Verily, those who fear their Lord, holding Him in reverence, And those who believe in the Signs of their Lord,
And those who ascribe not partners to their Lord, And those who give what they give while their hearts are full of fear because to their Lord they will return —
These it is who hasten to do good works, and these it is who are foremost in them.
And We do not burden any soul beyond its capacity, and with Us is a Book that speaks the truth, and they will not be wronged. - The Holy Quran: 23:46-63.
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem"
ReplyDeleteAnd even, their hearts are utterly heedless of this Book, and besides that they have deeds in which they are engaged; Until, when We seize those of them who indulge in luxury with punishment, behold, they cry for help. ‘Cry not for help this day, surely you shall not be helped by Us. ‘Truly, My Signs were recited unto you, but you used to turn back on your heels, ‘Big with pride, telling stories about it (the Qur’an) by night, talking nonsense.’ Have they not, then, pondered over the Divine Word, or has that come unto them which came not to their fathers of old? Or do they not recognize their Messenger, that they thus deny him?
Or do they say, there is madness in him? Nay, he has brought them the truth, and most of them hate the truth. And if the Truth had followed their desires, verily, the heavens and the earth and whosoever is therein would have been corrupted. Nay, We have brought them their admonition, but from their own admonition they now turn aside. Or dost thou ask of them any reward? But the reward of thy Lord is best; and He is the Best of providers. And most surely thou invest them to a right path. - The Holy Quran: 23: 64-74.
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem"
ReplyDeleteAnd those who do not believe in the Hereafter, are indeed deviating from that path.
And if We had mercy on them and relieved them of their affliction, they would still persist in their transgression, wandering blindly. We did seize them with punishment, but they humbled not themselves to their Lord, nor would they supplicate in lowliness. Until, when We open on them a gate of severe as tisement, behold, they are in despair thereat. And He it is Who has created for you ears, and eyes, and ears; but little thanks do you give. And He it is Who has multiplied you
in the earth, and unto Him shall you be gathered. And He it is Who gives life and causes death, and in His hands is the alternation of night and day. Will you not then understand? But they say like what the former people said. They say, ‘What! when we are dead and have become mere dust and bones, shall we indeed be raised up again? ‘This is what we have been promised before, we and our fathers. This is nothing but fables of the ancients.’ Say, ‘To whom belongs the earth and whosoever is therein, if you know?’ ‘To Allah’, they will say. Say, ‘Will you not then be admonished?’ Say, ‘Who is the Lord of the seven heavens, and the Lord of the Great Throne?’ They will say, ‘They are Allah’s.’ Say, ‘Will you not then take Him as your Protector? Say, ‘In Whose hand is the dominion over all things and Who protects, but against Whom there is not protection, if you know?’ – The Holy Quran: 23:75-89.
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem"
ReplyDeleteThey will say, ‘All this belongs to Allah.’ Say, ‘How then are you mislead?’
Yea, We have brought them the truth, and they are certainly liars. Allah has not taken unto Himself any son, nor is there any other God along with Him; in that case each god would have taken away what he had created, and some of them would surely have dominated over others. Glorified be Allah above all that which they attribute to Him! Knower of the unseen and of the seen! Exalted therefore is He above all that which they associate with Him! Say, ‘My Lord, if Thou wilt show me that with which they are threatened. ‘My Lord, then place me not with the wrongdoing people.’ And certainly We have the power to show thee that with which We threaten them. Repel evil with that which is best. We are well acquainted
with the things they allege. And say, ‘My Lord, I seek refuge in Thee from the incitements of the evil ones. ‘And I seek refuge in Thee, my Lord, lest they come near me.’ Until, when death comes to one of them, he says entreating, ‘My Lord, send me back, ‘That I may do righteous deeds in the life that I have left behind.’ Never, it is but a word that he utters. And behind them is a barrier until the day when they shall be raised again.- The Holy Quran: 23:90-101.
"Bismillaheer Rahmaneer Raheem"
ReplyDeleteAnd when the trumpet is blown, there will be no ties of relationship between them that day, nor will they ask after one another. Then those whose good works are heavy — these will be prosperous; But those whose good works are light — these are they who ruin their souls; in Hell will they abide. The Fire will burn their faces and they will grin with fear therein. ‘Were not My Signs recited unto you, and you treated them as lies?’ They will say, ‘Our Lord, our wickedness overcame us, and we were an erring people. ‘Our Lord, take us out of this, then if we return to disobedience, we shall indeed be wrongdoers. Allah will say, “Away with you, despised therein, and speak not from Me. “There was a party from among My servants who said, ‘Our Lord, we believe; forgive us therefore our sins, and have mercy on us; for Thou art the Best of those who show mercy.’ “But you made them a laughing stock until they became the cause of your forgetting My remembrance while you continued laughing at them. “I have rewarded them this day for their steadfastness so that they alone have triumphed.” Allah will say, ‘What number of years did you stayed in the earth?’ They will say, ‘We stayed for a day or part of a day, but ask those who keep count.’ He will say, ‘You stayed but a little, if only you knew! ‘Did you then think that We had created you without purpose, and that you would not be brought back to Us?’ Exalted then be Allah, the True Lord. There is no Worship but He, The Lord of the Glorious Throne. - The Holy Quran: 23:102-117.
Kuakata
ReplyDeleteKuakata (Bengali: কুয়াকাটা) is a panoramic sea beach and village[1] on the southernmost tip of Bangladesh.[2] Located in the Patuakhali district, Kuakata has a wide sandy beach from where one can see both the sunrise and sunset. It is about 320 Kilometers south of Dhaka, the capital, and about 70 Kilometers from the district headquarters. The Kuakata beach is 30 km long and 6 km wide. On 13 September 2007 government had announced a red alert in Kuakata as caution for a possible Tsunami Kuakata offers a full view of the sunrise and sunset from the same white sandy beach in the water of the Bay of Bengal.
Locally known as Shagor Kannya (Daughter of ocean), the long strip of dark, marbled sand stretches for about 30 km. The long and wide beach at Kuakata has a typical natural setting. This sandy beach has gentle slopes into the Bay of Bengal. Kuakata is also a sanctuary for migratory winter birds. On the eastern end of the beach is Gongamati Reserved Forest, an evergreen mangrove forest and snippet of the original Kuakata. When the Rakhines settled in the area in 1784, Kuakata was part of the larger Sundarbans forest. However, the Sundarbans is now at a distance of one-hour by speed boat. As a mangrove forest, Gongamati, like the Sundarbans, offers some protection against tidal surges, however it too is being threatened by logging and deforestation. The best way to reach the forest is by foot or bike along the beach, where a flock of flag flying fishing boats can be seen trawling the coast. Choosing to visit Gangamati in the late afternoon is a perfect time to watch the sun caste shadows on the abstract exposed mangrove roots. Kuakata is the place of pilgrimage for both Hindu and Buddhist communities. Innumerable devotees arrive here at the festival of 'Rush Purnima' and 'Maghi Purnima'. On these two occasions the pilgrims take holy bath at the bay and participate in the traditional fairs.[5]One may also visit the 100 years old Buddhist Temple where the statue of Goutama Buddha and two wells of 200 years old are located. he government and local business owners have made significant developments over the years to attract tourist to its shores. Nowadays, local people are more supportive to the tourists and communications have improved significantly. A new Police station was built in 2007. Accordingly, the law and order situation in the open beach, even at night, has improved significantly.
Narrated By Abu Huraira(RA:) The Prophet(SWS) said, "When Ramadan begins, the gates of Paradise are opened."
Narrated By Ibn Umar(RA:) I heard The Prophet(SWS) saying, "When you see the crescent (of the month of Ramadan), start fasting, and when you see the crescent (of the month of Shawwal), stop fasting; and if the sky is overcast (and you can't see It) then regard the crescent (month) of Ramadan (as of 30 days)".

Narrated By Al-Miqdad bin 'Amr Al-Kindi : An ally of Bani Zuhra who took part in the battle of Badr with the Prophet(SWS), that he said, "O Allah's Apostle! If I meet an unbeliever and we have a fight, and he strikes my hand with the sword and cuts it off, and then takes refuge from me under a tree, and says, 'I have surrendered to Allah (i.e. embraced Islam),' may I kill him after he has said so?" The Prophet(SWS) said, "Do not kill him." Al-Miqdad said, "But O Allah's Apostle! He had chopped off one of my hands and he said that after he had cut it off. May I kill him?" The Prophet(SWS) said. "Do not kill him for if you kill him, he would be in the position in which you had been before you kill him, and you would be in the position in which he was before he said the sentence."
Eid ul-Fitr is observed over a three-day public holiday in Bangladesh. Educational institutions, banks and corporate offices usually remain closed for a week during this time. Bangladeshi observe the holiday by performing the obligatory Eid prayers on the morning of Eid, giving Zakat ul Fitr, and visiting friends and relatives. Popular customs also include ladies decorating one's hands with henna, dressing up in new clothes and having a good meal with family and friends.
ReplyDeleteAll Muslims dress in the clothing(Panjabee, Pazama and other dress) and children also dressed with the colorful clothing and received gifts from their seniors on this day.
Eid-ul-Fitr is the first day of the Islamic month of Shawwal. It marks the end of Ramadan, which is a month of fasting and prayer. Many Muslims attend communal prayers, listen to a Khutba (sermon) and give zakat al-fitre (charity in the form of food) during Eid ul-Fitr.
Many Muslims attend communal prayers and listen to a Khutba or sermon on the first day of the month of Shawwal. These prayers are held outside or in large venues, such as ‘Eidgha’ Mosque and others open fields. Many Muslims may travel far to participate in these activities. Some communities organize different festivities, such as communal meals or events for children, on this day.
If a Muslim has not given zakat al-fitr during Ramadan, he or she can give this on Eid-al-Fitr. Zakat al-fitr is a form of charity consisting of a quantity of food, such as barley, dates, raisins or wheat flour, or its monetary equivalent given to the poor. Many Muslims may also prepare festive meals to share, wear new clothes, visit relatives and give presents or candy to children. Cards can also be sent, often featuring the words “Eid Mubbarak” (blessed Eid).
