A Masjid goer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper and
complained that it made no sense to go to masjid every Friday.
"I've gone for 30 years now," he wrote, "and in that time I have heard
something like 3,000 sermons. But for the life of me, I can't remember
a single one of them. So, I think I'm wasting my time and the Imaams
are wasting theirs by giving sermons at all."
This started a real controversy in the 'Letters to the Editor' column,
muchto the delight of the editor.It went on for weeks until someone
wrote this clincher:
"I've been married for 37 years now. In that time mywife has cooked
some 32,000 meals. But, for the life of me, I cannot recall the entire
menu for a single one of those meals, But I do know this… They all
nourished me and gave me the strength I needed to do my work. If my
wife had not given me these meals, I would be physically dead today.
Likewise, if I had not gone to masjid for nourishment, I would be
spiritually dead today!'
SubhanAllahu Ta'ala who says in His Glorious Book:
•►"O you who have believed, respond to Allah and to the Messenger when
he calls you to that which gives you life. And know that Allah
intervenes between a man and his heart and that to Him you will be
gathered." [Surah AlAnfal, 8:26]

Alcohol - The risks (courtesy : BBC.co.uk)
Low risk :
Drinking small amounts of alcohol can be a pleasant social activity
for many people. Indeed drinking small quantities of alcohol can
reduce the risk of heartdisease for older people if it does not
conflict with any medication being taken.
The following information is based on units of alcohol.One unit of
alcohol contains about 10g of alcohol and is roughly equivalent to:
1 bottle (250ml) of ordinary strength beer (4 - 5 % alcohol)
1 glass (100ml) of wine
1 small glass of vodka (25mg of vodka)
But beware: Drinks often contain two or more units in a single glass!
If you drink up to two unitsa day of alcohol free from impurities
there is little chance of any risk to your health.
If you regularly drink more than two units a day there is an
increasing risk to yourhealth.
If you drink more than fourunits in any one day there is an increased
risk of injury and accidents as wellas an increasing risk to your
health.
High risk:
As the amount we drink and the number of times we drink increases,
then so do the risks.
The risks to you:
Raised blood pressure which increases the risk of Stroke; stomach
disorders; depression and emotional disorders; cancers, particularly
of the mouth, throat and gullet; hepatitis and cirrhosis of the liver;
malnutrition; accidents, at home, at work and on the roads; suicide.
