Sabr means patience. Isbiru is a command. It means 'be patient'.
Water could be a soldier of Allah. It drowned Fir'awn. A mosquito is a soldier of Allah because it killed King Nimrod. The Earth swallowed Qarun and his stuff.
Al-Aws killed Ka'ab ibn Ashraf. Al-Aws is a tribe, not a person.
Al-Aws and Khazraj would compete against each other.
If you're poor, you have an excuse to not pay Zakah. In the battlefield, you pray. If you're sick, meaning really ill, you don't have to fast. 'Abdullah bin 'Unays prayed when he had to meet Khalid bin Sufyan.
Zainab bint Jahsh is the sister of 'Abdullah bin Jahsh.
We are slaves of Allah, we are followers of Muhammad, and we do whatever we are told to do.
Muhammad said, "When I die the fastest of my wives to die after me has the longest arm." So the wives of Muhammad would measure their arms. Muhammad meant the one who gave the most Zakah, and that was Zainab bint Jahsh.

Day 28

Banu Quraydhah was the last Jewish tribe in Madinah.
Ka'ab ibn Asad was the head of Banu Quraydhah.
Jibreel told Muhammad to go to Banu Quraydhah. He did. Muhammad told the sahaba to not pray asr until they got to Banu Quraydhah. It got sunsettish, so the sahaba stopped and argued.

One said, "We should pray when we get there, what Muhammad meant was for us to hurry up!" Another said, "We have to pray now!"

So some prayed and some prayed at Banu Quraydhah.

Abu Lubaabah got to Masjid Nabawi and tied himself to a pillar. He stayed tied up for six days.

He said, "I'm waiting for Allah to accept my repentance."
His wife would untie him every time he wanted to pray and when he was done she tied him up again. He wouldn't let anyone untie him except his wife. In the end though, Muhammad untied him.

Sa'ad bin Mu'adh was a special sahabi. All the sahabi participated in his funeral. The throne of Allah shook because of Sa'ad ibn Mu'adh. The angels were carrying the throne and they were shocked that Sa'ad died. Muhammad never forgot Sa'ad. Muhammad got some fabrics and the sahabi liked to touch them. Muhammad said the handkerchief of Sa'ad ibn Mu'adh was softer in Jannah.
Muhammad was standing at Sa'ad's grave. Then he said Subhanallah three times. Then he said Allahu Akbar three times. Sa'ad died at 37 years.

Allah & His Messenger

Day 27

Jabir saw Muhammad in a bad condition, so he asked his wife if she had any food and she said,

"We just have some barley and a goat."

Jabir slaughtered the goat and his wife made bread and cooked the meat. When the food was done Jabir went to Muhammad and said,

"Messenger of Allah, I have some food for you at my house."

Muhammad asked, "How much do you have?"

Jabir said, "A little bit."

Muhammad got up and invited the whole camp to Jabir's house. Jabir was surprised because he didn't even have enough food for everybody. He ran home and told his wife that Muhammad invited the whole camp. She said,

"Did he ask how much we have?"

Jabir said yes. She said,

"Allah and his messenger know best."

So everybody came to Jabir's house and 800 people ate. When they were done eating Muhammad checked the pot of meat and saw it was still full and the bread was still baking. Muhammad told Jabir's wife to give it to her neighbors. This was a miracle of Muhammad. Yum.

Muhammad's camel was slow and weak, so he asked Jabir for his stick. Muhammad prodded the camel with the stick. "Mount it," he told Jabir. Muhammad's camel was fast now.
It's not appropriate to surprise people because then they have to get their house ready and they can dust off their cushions.
Umar had a servant. The servant had to get water from a well. There were too much people there so they fought. Muhammad stopped them.

Iman made the Muslims' hearts strong. Their opponents were chickening out. They were struck by fear. And the Muslims didn't have good training and weapons!
A Yahudi woman was executed by Muhammad.

Arabs' lifestyle is fighting. People were scared to join Uhud because they were scared of dying.

People seem to only remember Allah when things are hard. Like if people are stranded at sea, they ask Allah to help them. Then after Allah helps them, they go back and pray to their idols.

If you see Khalid bin Sufyan you will tremble because he was so powerful. Abdullah bin 'Unays said, "I never trembled because of anyone." He carried his sword and went out. He gathered close to Makkah. He recruits his army to a camp. He was walking towards a man, when he suddenly shivered. He knew then the man was Khalid bin Sufyan. It was Asr time. Abdullah bin 'Unays wanted to pray but he knew Khalid would know he was a Muslim. Khalid asked Abdullah, "Who are you?" He said, "I know you are recruiting armies to kill Muhammad." Khalid said, "Yes, I am." Abdullah killed him. He said, "I killed him!" Muhammad said, "Yes, you did." Muhammad gave Abdullah a stick. And when he died, he got buried with it. On the day of judgement, he will lean on that stick.

You are not supposed to kill in Makkah.

Abu Sufyan said, "I've never seen the sahaba love anybody like they love Muhammad."

Khabbab was imprisoned in a woman's house. He told her to get a blade so he could cut his pubic hair. The Kafirs were coming to kill him. She gave him a blade and brought her kid. The kid crawled on to Khabbab's lap. The woman got worried because Khabbab has the blade in his hand and she thought Khabbab would kill the kid. Khabbab said, "Insha Allah I will not do that." The woman said, "He is the best of prisoners I have ever seen. I would come in his room and he is eating grapes when there are no grapes in Makkah. So I knew he got the grapes from the angels." And this woman wasn't a Muslim.

Somebody told Muhammad, "Send some men to me, Islam is spreading, I want some preachers to preach Islam." Muhammad sent 70 men called Al-Qurraa'. The readers of the Qur'an.

Someone stabbed a man. The man yelled, "Allahu Akbar, I have succeeded!" Then he died. His killer didn't understand. "What's he talking about, I killed him!" People said, "He is making shahadah." The killer became a Muslim.

Handhalah got married to Jamilah before the battle of Uhud. Handhalah didn't take a bath. So the angels came down and washed him. People called him 'Ghaseelul Mala'ikah'. They washed him with water from Jannah in a gold basin.
It's sunnah to bury the shuhadaa' where they die.
Ubayy ibn Khalaf said, "I'm gonna kill Muhammad." Someone told Muhammad, and he said,
"No, I'm going to kill him."
Muhammad got a spear and he shook it in such a way that Ubayy ran away. Muhammad threw the spear at him, but it didn't go through because Ubayy was wearing armor and you could only see his eyes. Ubayy ran bellowing to his city. He bellowed and he yelled,
"Muhammad killed me!!" There was only blood clotting at his neck. Shortly he died. It was a miracle.
May all the Muslims in this world have love for Muhammad (SAW).

Day 21 - Yikes! Ramadan is almost over!!

Whoever leaves something for the sake of Allah, He will reward him with something greater. Madinah is sacred, you can't cut the trees, you can't carry weapons, etc.
Allah is the best of planners.
Whenever Abu Dujanah is going to fight, he puts on his red headband. Struts in front of army. Allah does not like that kind of walk unless in this situation. Abu Dujanah killed someone. Those archers ran down the hill. They did not listen to Muhammad. They were gathering BOOTY. 50 archers, 40 disobeyed. This is very bad to disobey your commander. It was a day of trial and testing. Muhammad got hit by a rock. Broke his teeth and tore his lip. Fatimah was cleaning him. Someone gave her water but it made him bleed more. So Fatimah took a piece of mat and put it in the fire, and put on the wound to stop bleeding and infection. Nasty. Muhammad broke some front teeth. Kuffar thought Muhammad was dead. But Muhammad LIVES. 7 men died to protect Muhammad. Abu Sufyan asked, "Is Muhammad dead?" "No." "Is Abu Bakr alive?" They didn't say anything. "Is Umar alive?" Didn't say anything. Abu Sufyan said, "These men have been killed." He was happy. There were 70 Shaheeds on the Battle of Uhud day. Wahshi was old at that time. Hind wanted to eat the liver of Hamzah. Muhammad was very sad. He didn't want to see the face of Wahshi because it would remind him of Hamzah. Wahshi said, "I used to avoid Muhammad."

Day 20

It was raining. Muhammad took off his armor and clothes and hung them on a tree so they wouldn't get wet. Then Muhammad sat under the tree. Muhammad was sleeping under the tree. Ja'thoor came to him and said,
"O Muhammad, who can save you from me now?"
Muhammad said, "Allah."
Ja'thoor suddenly fell back, and his sword fell on the ground. Muhammad jumped on him and said,
"O Ja'thoor, who can save you from me now?"
Ja'thoor became Muslim. He gave Da'wah to other people and they became Muslim. Ja'thoor fell down because Jibreel pushed him. He said,
"A tall man came and pushed me down."
Rafi' beat someone in wrestling. Muhammad told the archers, "Don't come down this hill, whether we're winning or losing."
But, as you know, the archers didn't listen. The Muslims were winning until the archers came down. Ugh!!!

On the day of the battle it rained.
The night before the battle, Ali ibn Abi Talib said, "I thought all of us would be scared about the battle but all of us were sleeping deeply." Shows confidence of hearts. Sa'ad bin Mu'adh said he was friends with Umayyah bin Khalaf. Bilal ibn Rabah was the slave of Umayyah. Bilal said, "O Umayyah, the head of disbelievers!" Abu Talib dies as a kafir, and Abu Sufyan dies Muslim. Muhammad talked to people in their grave. Someone asked him, "O Messenger of Allah, why do you talk to dead people?" Muhammad said, "They hear me."

Day 13

Dar-ul Arqam was a secret place in Madinah where the Muslims would pray and have meetings. But Muhammad built Masjid An-Nabawi. It was public. It was made of mud bricks. The roof was made of palm leaves and the floor was sand. It was very simple, but it was a beloved Masjid. The Masjid was the place where armies would be sent out from. It was a place of da'wah. The Christians were allowed to sit in the Masjid so they could watch the Muslims pray. They could talk with Muhammad.

If you prayed 'Isha in Masjid An-Nabawi, it would be like you prayed for 83 years.

Muhammad's followers were thinking of a way to get people to come to their Masjid to pray.

And 'Abdullah bin Zaid had a dream.

A man came to him, ringing a bell.

Abdullah said, "How much are you selling that bell for?"

The man said, "Why do you want it?"

Abdullah said, "To get people to our Masjid."

"Tell you what," said the man,"You just say 'Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar, ash hadu al laa ilaaha ilallah, ash hadu anna Muhammad ar Rasulullah. Hayya alas salaah. Hayya alas salaah. Hayya alal Falaah. Hayya alal Falaah. Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar. Laa ilaha ilallah.'

And to say iqamah, say 'Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar, Ash hadu al la ilaha ilallah, Ash hadu an namuhammadar Rasulullah. Hayya alas Salah, Hayya alal Falah, Qad qamah tis Salah, Qad qama tis Salaah, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, La ilaha ilallah.' "

The next day, Abdullah told Muhammad about the dream.

He said, "Alhamdulillah. That is a true dream. Go to Bilal and teach him this because his voice is better than yours."

Soon Bilal was saying it, and 'Umar bin Khattab came running to Muhammad, saying, "Rasulullah, I had that dream!"

Muhammad said, "Alhamdulillah, that is a true dream."

If you have enough food for two people, then take a third person with you.

Muhammad in Madinah, Day 12

Maghazi means battles. The earth of Allah is spacious.

People wanted to kill Muhammad. It was Abu Jahl's idea. He said, "Let's get one of the strongest men from all the tribes, give them each a sharp sword, and they all strike Muhammad. Then his family will ask for blood money, and we'll be happy to pay it."
Muhammad let Ali ibn Abi Talib sleep in his bed, and he and Abu Bakr left Makkah. Muhammad loved Makkah, and wouldn't ever leave it.

Muhammad and Abu Bakr hid in a cave. The men came to the cave, but they didn't go in because the web of a spider was there. It was a soldier of Allah. They stayed in the cave for three days.
Abu Bakr's son Abdullah would eavesdrop on the men in Makkah, and then at night he would share it with Abu Bakr and Muhammad in the cave.

Umm Aabat was this person who always provided people with food whenever they passed her tent. So Muhammad passed by her tent and asked,
"Oh Umm Aabat, do you have anything to spare?"
She said, "If I did, I would have given it to you."
Muhammad peeked in the tent and saw a weak she-goat. He asked, "What is wrong with her?"
Umm Aabat said, "She is too weak to graze with the other goats in the flock."
He said,"Does she have any milk in her?"
She said, "She is too weak for that."
"Can I milk her?"
"Go ahead."
Muhammad asked for a big container. He milked the goat and filled the container to the top. It was a miracle!

In Makkah, people usually sleep at noon because it is very hot.

Abu Jahl came to Abu Bakr's house and knocked on the door. Abu Bakr's daughter Asma opened the door. Abu Jahl asked her, "Where is your father?" She said, "I don't know where my father is." Abu Jahl slapped her face. She lied, but in this situation, it's okay to lie, for the sake of a Muslim.

It's a struggle to follow Islam because you have to sacrifice everything.

Muhammad Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam said, "I saw in my dream I'm going from Makkah to Yathrib (Madinah). It had lots of palm trees."

Umm Salamah said, "We came back from Habasha."
Umm Salamah, Abu Salamah and Salamah were separated. Uthman bin Talhah helped Umm Salamah find Abu Salamah.

About Zinna
Some things a Muslim shouldn't do:

1. Accusing a Muslim man or woman of zinna is a major sin.
2. Good that came out of evil. It is bad for you, but you also learn to never do it again.
3. Muslims should think good of other Muslims.
4. We should not carry rumors.
5. It (zinna) should never happen again.
6. Don't talk about such subjects.
7. Don't lie.
8. Don't slander each other.
   
9. Accusing someone of zinna while you are doing a major sin also.

Don't let zinna happen again. (I know I wrote that a million times already.)
Muhammad tied a rock around his stomach because he was so hungry. He made du'a to Allah. "Put peace upon us."

When someone converts to Islam, Allah forgives him of all his sins and he is pure like a baby.

Mus'ab ibn 'Umayr has this only piece of cloth that he wore. If he pulled it down to cover his feet, his face would show. If he covered his face, his feet would show. So Muhammad said to use the cloth to cover his face, and get some tree leaves for his feet.

Day 8

Abu Talib was dying and Muhammad was with him. Muhammad said, "Oh uncle, say La ilaha ilallah. That's all I want from you." Abu Jahl was there. He said, "Are you going to die under the religion of Muhammad, or under the religion of your father?" Abu Talib's last words were, "I'm dying under the religion of my father." Muhammad said, "I'm going to keep asking Allah to forgive my uncle."
Two months later, Khadijah dies. That time was called the Year of Sorrow, because two of Muhammad's most loved people were dead.

The Buraq was a very fast animal. Muhammad mounted it, by the command of a angel. Muhammad got to the masjid of Jerusalem. He dismounted the Buraq and went into the masjid. He prayed two raka'ah. He was the imam of all the prophets.

Muhammad went up into the seven heavens and met all the prophets.
Muhammad met Allah. He talks DIRECTLY to him. Allah perscribes 50, FIFTY daily prayers. Muhammad went down to Musa and told him.
Musa said, "Your people can't handle that. Go back, tell Him to reduce it." Muhammad went back. Allah reduced the prayer to 40. Muhammad told Musa.
Musa said, "Go back and reduce it." Allah reduced it by ten. Muhammad went down.
"Go back, reduce again," said Musa. So it was reduced to 30, then 20, then 10, then 5. Muhammad went to Musa and told him.
Musa said, "Go reduce it again."
Muhammad said, "I'm ashamed to go back to Allah, I can't."

This event was called Israa' Mi'raaj.

Musa punched The Angel of Death when he asked him, "Do you want to die?" Whoah!

Imagine a prophet with no followers. On the day of Judgment, he would meet Allah alone.
Quote: A prophet with no followers would meet Allah alone on the Day of Judgment."
(I think Judgment should be spelled like J U D G E M E N T. Don't you think so?)

If you can't pray standing up, pray sitting. If you can't pray sitting, pray lying down, if you can't, with your finger. If you can't do that, pray with your eyes. But there's no way you're never going to pray.
(Pray with my eyes? How? And how do you pray with your finger? And how do you make ruku' and sujud lying down? Do you put your hands on your knees? Please tell me in the blubber box if you know. Thanks! I mean, Jazakillah Khair!)

Pray Around the Ka'bah

From today's post.

Day 7

Abu Jahl threw a rock at Muhammad and he bled. A slave girl saw, and she told Hamzah. He was upset. Hamzah hit Abu Jahl with his bow.
Hamzah became Muslim.

'Umar bin Khattab will not become Muslim till the donkey of his father does.

One time Muhammad was praying at the Ka'bah. Umar saw him and got under the cloth of the Ka'bah (planning to attack Muhammad) and sneaked around until he was in front of Muhammad. Muhammad was reading Surah Haqqah. Umar thought, "What wonderful words! These must be the words of a poet!" And just then Muhammad recited, "These are not the words of a poet, little do you remember." (Wa maa bi qawli shaa'ir, qaleelam ma tathakka roon.) Umar was surprised and thought, "Then these must be the words of a fortune teller!" Muhammad recited, "These are not the words of a fortune teller, little do you remember." (Wa maa be qawli kaahin, qalee lam ma tathakka roon.) Umar then thought, "These are the words of Allah."

Umar became Muslim. Everyone was so happy. They were like,
"ALLAHU AKBAR!"

"We were not allowed to pray around the Ka'bah publicly till Umar became Muslim."

Abu Jahl's name wasn't really Abu Jahl. Muhammad called him that. It meant 'Father of Ignorance." The people used to call him 'Abul Hakam.' 'Father of Wisdom.'

Rukanah was the strongest man among the Quraish. He was not Muslim but he asked to wrestle with Muhammad. Muhammad said, "If I wrestle with you, will you become Muslim?" Rukanah said yes. So they wrestled and Muhammad won. Rukanah was so surprised and he became Muslim.

A man came to Muhammad Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam and gave him a piece of gold. "This is all I have," said the man.

Abu Sufyan was the leader of Quraish, so his daughter Umm Habibah did not get persecuted.

Umm Ayman from Abyssinia said, "No peace on you." Muhammad Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam told her, "Just say Salaam."

Asmaa bint 'Umays went to see Hafsah, Umar bin Al-Khataab's daughter and also Muhammad Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam's wife. Umar saw her and asked Hafsah, "Who is is this? Is it the woman from Abyssinia?" Hafsah said, "Yes." Umar told Asmaa,"We made hijrah before you, so you aren't as close to Muhammad Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam as we are." Asmaa got angry and told Muhammad Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam what Umar said. Muhammad Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam said, "Umar gets the reward of one hijrah, and you get reward of two."

When Abu Bakr read Quran, he would cry. He would pray outside in front of all the people of Quraish, and the leaders of Quraish were angry. So Abu Bakr left the land because he wanted a place to worship Allah.

Abu Dharr became Muslim. "Ash hadu al laa ilaha illallah." The people gathered around him and beat him so bad he died. (Don't worry, he didn't really die!)
Everywhere people were becoming Muslim.

Whoever searches for guidance, Allah will give it to them. Islam teaches good. Worship Allah alone.

Notes for Ramadan Day 4

Abu Talib called for Muhammad SAW. Muhammad saw came.
Abu Talib said, "The people are complaining about your preaching of Islam, so can you stop?" Muhammad said, "Oh my uncle, do you see the sun?"
Abu Talib said, "Yes."
Muhammad SAW said, "It is impossible for me to stop this. This is my mission. I can't give it up."

Even though Muhammad SAW was spreading Islam, he didn't get persecuted. Allah protected him.
Because people were becoming Muslim, there was torture.
People would try to kill Muhammad SAW but Allah protected him. The people would clothe some people in hot iron and put them in the hot sun. Uthman bin Affan was wrapped in a carpet and people jumped on him. People would burn rocks, put them on the ground, and put Khabbab ibn Al-Araat on top of it.
Allah says,"They attempt to kill you and drive you out of the land."
Khabbab ibn Al-Araat said to Muhammad SAW, "Ask Allah to give us victory."
Muhammad told him, "Be patient, you have to go through what the people before you went through."
Muhammad wanted his ummah to be the best!

If you know things, teach them to people. Like how I'm teaching my brother. Today I read him this book. I had some Play-Doh around, so I made a hippo and a blue dragonfly. They were very juicy, although I am not posting them up here, because, uh, it takes, like, too much time, you know? So, yeah.

Today's Notes

Ramadan Day 3, August 3

Gain knowledge,
Teach knowledge.

Muhammad (SAW) makes dhikr in the morning. It's his breakfast.

3 lessons: Surah 'Alaq, Muzammil, and Mudaththir.

When Muhammad (SAW) tried to preach Islam, the Quraish mocked him because he wasn't wealthy.

Muhammad tried to preach in Taif, and the people said, "Allah sent YOU?!"

Abu Jahl saw Muhammad (SAW) making sujud on the ground. He went to the leaders of Quraish and said, "Are you letting Muhammad rub his face in the dirt?* If you are, I will trample his neck and and rub his face in the dirt."
*make sujud

Some people threw dirt on Muhammad (SAW) while he was making sujud. Fatimah (his daughter) saw and cleaned the dirt off.

In the markets, people would have poetry contests and hang up the poetry. Muhammad (SAW) would look at them and say, "Oh my people, say [shahadah]!"

Muhammad (SAW) makes da'wah, but people just ignore him. But he still makes da'wah.

Some people called Muhammad (SAW) a magician, soothsayer, poet, sorcerer, and who knows what. They talked among themselves and would say things like, "No, he doesn't act like a sorcerer." "No, Qur'an is not poetry."

At the Ka'bah, there were some Quraish. They said, "Send for Muhammad (SAW)!" Muhammad came eagerly. He thought his people might change. The Quraish asked Muhammad (SAW) to ask Allah for wealth.

Makkah is very narrow.

Gems and Jewels

For Ramadan, I'm reading this book called Gems and Jewels: Wise Sayings, Interesting Events & Moral Lessons from the Islamic History. It is compiled by Abdul-Malik Mujahid. It has good quotes in it that I can use for pictorials.

Yesterday's and Today's Notes

Here are my notes from yesterday. I forgot to add them here. I'm listening to lectures on Kalamullah.

August 1, 2011

Muhammad Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam came with a law, Quran.
Nobody on earth is praised more than Muhammad Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam.
There is nothing in the Quran that has been disproved and that is not going to to happen.

Okay, now here are today's notes.

August 2, 2011

'Iqra' means 'read'.
Waraqah has scrolls from the bible that he studies.
He said to Muhammad Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam: I wish I was young to see your people drive you out of your land.
Muhammad Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam didn't like anything that had to do with Shaytaan, sorcery, or anything like that.
Reading is the key to knowledge.

Why Kids Like to Read

Kids like to read because they see their parents read all the time. The kids copy their parents.
Kids grow up in houses filled with books.
Kids have their own library.
They don't watch TV, one of the most worst distractions (I don't have a TV).

Whenever Muhammad Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam had a dream, it would happen the next day. This happened for six months.

Don't tell anybody about a bad dream that you had. Bad dreams come from Shaytaan. Don't tell anyone a bad dream because Shaytaan wants to make you feel bad, complaining about your dream to someone else.

Jibreel (Alayhis Salam)'s wings were so big they covered the horizon.
