Picnic!

On Saturday the masjid held a picnic at the park. There was a jumping balloon. One looked like a dog and one looked like Spongebob. There was chicken, salad, donuts, cupcakes, and lots of other yum-headed things. I rollerbladed with Skina and our friends. There was ice cream. I had an ice cream sandwich and a popsicle. I was quite sweaty. But it was fun and we left at about 5 o clock.

Islamic History

Abdullah bin Masud’s legs were skinny. The sahaba laughed at them. Muhammad said, “Why are you laughing at his legs? They are going to be very heavy on the scale on the Day of Judgement.” I don’t see what’s so funny about skinny legs. It’s better than having big fat legs.
Abu Sufyan was going to become a Muslim. He said, “Ash hadu an La ilaha illa Allah.” Muhammad said, “Say that I am the Messenger of Allah.” Abu Sufyan said, “There is something in my heart that is stopping me to do so.” Someone said, “Abu Sufyan, say it before you get persecuted.” So Abu Sufyan said it.

Islamic History

Abu Sufyan went to the house of his daughter Umm Habibah. Abu Sufyan saw a rug on the floor and was going to sit on it, but Umm Habibah pulled it away and rolled it up. Abu Sufyan said, "I don't know if that rug is not fit for me, or if I'm not fit for that rug." She said, "This rug belongs to Rasulullah SAW and you are a dirty mushrik!"

Blackouts and BM's

Last night there was a rainstorm, a bad one, so bad it gave us a blackout. Before the blackout though, we were eating dinner. Thunder rolled...and then at a point when we were eating calmly, CREACKKK!!! The lightning and thunder cracked so loud that Skina's eyes widened, and H put his head down but looked up. I made a face at them that said, Are you scared? Very funny.

And today my brother Z pooped in his underwear, a very stinky moment.

Today H made donuts and my mom made cream puffs! Yumm!

Friday and Saturday Plans

This Friday we're going to the masjid for a bake sale provided by a Muslim Girls' Club. (For more info about the club, please go to muslimaatrus.blogspot.com.) H is selling at the men's side, and Skina, I, and some other people are selling at the womens' side. The proceeds go to Muslims Without Borders or Islamic Relief.
My mom's friend is going to have a baby, so we're planning a baby surprise for her. We're making...a DIAPER cake. *Gag* Some girls are coming to our house to make it. But at the masjid there's also a picnic...sadly I can't go because of the girly diaper cake.
So today my mom is making pandan chiffon cake. I think she's making a red one too, with sirap. And on Monday and Tuesday, she made Chocolate Lemon Biscotti. H is making donuts and malawah.
Skina made a banner for the men's table, I made one for the women's.
Might put pictures up.

Muhammad's Life - Islam of Khalid and Amr

Amr bin Al Aas said, "If all my people became Muslim, I wouldn't."
Amr bin Al Aas asked King An-Najashi if he could kill Muhammad. King An-Najashi smacked Amr so hard he thought his nose was broken and his nose started to bleed. He covered it up with his clothes. An Najashi said, "Do you ask me to kill Muhammad?!" Amr had a sudden change of feeling.

Amr bin Aas asked for new clothes because his clothes were covered in blood. So he got new clothes and wore them. When his companions saw him, they were happy. Amr bin Al Aas went to Madinah so he could become Muslim. On the way he met Khalid bin Waleed and Uthman bin Talhah.

He asked them, "What are you doing here?"
They said,"We're going to Madinah to meet Muhammad so we can be Muslim!"
Amr said, "That is the same reason that brought me."

Muhammad was eagerly waiting for the three men to come to him even though they had done very bad to him. But Muhammad was so happy that they wanted to be Muslim.

One time Khalid saw Muhammad and the other Muslims praying Asr. Khalid planned to kill Muhammad, but he just couldn't. He hesitated. Then he knew that Muhammad was being protected. Allah saved Khalid and wanted good for him.

When Khalid was going to Muhammad to be Muslim, he asked Safwan if he wanted to be Muslim too, but Safwan said, 'no'. He asked Ikrimah, and he said, 'no'. Khalid dressed up nicely to meet Muhammad.

"I always knew you were intelligent, and I always hoped that your intelligence would bring you to Islam." - Muhammad to Khalid.

Muhammad's Life Continued

In the old times, whenever a limb is cut open somehow and the blood flows out, you have to put something hot and burning on the limb, not water. I don’t know why, but that’s how it works.
Some people killed Muhammad’s shepherd and stole his camels. Muhammad made dua against them. Their punishment? Their eyes were branded with hot metal nails. This is because they branded the eyes of Muhammad’s shepherd.
Muhammad wa Khamees! Muhammad and his army!
Ali ibn Abi Talib’s eyes had a disease. Some people brought him to Muhammad. He put some of his saliva into Ali’s eyes and they were cured. Miracle.
The ostrich is a super fast bird. 65km per hour.
Muhammad put a young girl on top of the luggage of his camel and he started riding. When he got to his destination, the girl and Muhammad got off. The girl saw blood on the luggage. She sat next to the camel, embarrassed. It was her first period. Muhammad came and asked her, “What’s wrong? Did you have your period?” She said, “Yes.” He said, “Wipe it with water and salt, then take a bath.” She did, then Muhammad called her name and put a necklace around her neck. She said, “I’ll never take it off.” So when she died, she was buried with it.

Gattitown

Today I went to Gattitown, the arcade I told you about in the previous post! I rode the Go-Karts which were extremely fun except I crashed into some daft people. My dad rode with my little bro and he won! I say again, those Go-Karts were so fun but NOT the bomb!!

I also played this bowling game called Ice Ball. While I was playing it though this old man that looked like a hobo talked to me in a weird language. It was also very loud in there so I couldn't hear him. (Gladly.) I saw him later in the praying room. I was like, "What? He's Muslim?"

Then I played a game that gives you tickets and I hit the jackpot!! I got 100 tickets. I played basketball, and a game in the kids' place where a frog has to knock down bugs with its tongue. It was so easy and I got lots of tickets.

We ate lunch. I ate pizza, mac and cheese, two brownies, and a cinnamon bun. Drinks, pink lemonade and, um, fruit punch.

There was the athan going on too. Awesome, you know. It's unusual. So we prayed Dhuhr and then we had to hurry up and play games because our cards expired at 2:00. So yeah.

We fed our tickets to the machine which got jammed pretty much a lot. So a fixing man had to fix it. (Obviously!) Then we counted our tickets on the printed receipt so we could get prizes.

I got a pencil, an airplane, a glow-in-the-dark slinky, a squishy, spiky pink ball, a paddle game, and shades. I can't wear them though because they get in the way of my glasses. There was also a furry lamp that I really wanted but we didn't have enough tickets.

We ate and drank again and left.

Unfortunately, I found some forgotten tickets in my pocket when we got home.

Tinkling...and stuff

My brother really needs to be potty trained. Yesterday he pooped in his undies and tinkled in the kitchen! Very chaotic.
Tomorrow I am going to a very fun playing place for Eid. I mean, I know it's already past Eid, but you probably get the idea.

Muhammad (SAW)'s Life Continued (Madinah)

♥Today is Friday! Yay!♥

Al-Qaswa is Muhammad's famous camel.
In Hudaybiyyah there was a well that had no water. The sahaba told Muhammad. Muhammad took an arrow from his quiver and told them to put it in the well. They threw it in the well and water started flowing out of the well.
Banu Umayyah are close relatives to Banu Hashim.
Muhammad is the best worshipper of all.
