HADEES:->-Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: SayAmin when the Imam says Amin, for it anyone's utterance of Amin synchronises with that of the angels, he will be forgiven his past sins. {The Book of Prayers (Kit

Oath on Patience
The Messenger of Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: "There are
three men about whom I can take an oath. No man's wealth can be
reduced by charity. Any man who shows patience in the face of
oppression, Allah honours him…." [Ibn Majah]
It often happens in family matters that with the people nearest and
dearestto us we are least forgiving. Somebody says something harsh and
Shaitaan immediately jumps to our side telling usto throw a brick in
exchange for a stone. He incites us saying that unless we crush the
other person in retaliation we will never get any respect.
But this is not the formula for honour given by our beloved Prophet
(sal Allahualaihi wa sallam). He told us to forbear the personal
insults we receive to bring us honour.
It is sad that we are willingto show forbearance when Allah (subhana
wa ta'ala) isinsulted, and patience when Muhammad (sal Allahu alaihi
wa sallam) is maligned, but quick to react when the lowly persons of
ourselves are treated contemptuously./

'' Dua '' :: - -forgive me my sins;

"Oh Allah, indeed there are sins between me and You;
and there are sins betweenme and Your creation.
Oh Allah, what is this for You, so forgive me my sins;
and whatever arises from them, bear them for me
and enrich me with Your favor, for Your forgiveness spreads wide.
Oh Allah, enlighten the knowledge of my heart;
and render my body obedient to You;
and purify me from inner discord and occupy me with contemplation;
and protect me from the whisperings of Satan;
and save me from him, Oh Compassionate One,
until he no longer has any power over me."

''Advise'':-:- Purify your heart and soul from the dirt of the day

At the end of every day, just before heading to bed, remember to take
account of yourself. What did you say or do today? Purify your heart
and soul from the dirt of the day and seeksincere forgiveness or any
wrong you may have done.If you can't remember anything, then still ask
for forgiveness because the human being is a forgetful being.

''Advise'':-:- Choose love and peacewill follow:

There is a saying: ""Choose love and peace will follow. Choose peace
and love will follow."
As Muslims we also understand that justice andfairness are vital, and
I think this is one of the distinguishing factors of our deen (our
Islamic way of life). Other religions speak of love, but do not
emphasize justice. But when people are brutalizedand oppressed, what
does it mean to speak of love or peace? When a man has hisboot on
another man's neck, while he loots his home and hurts his family, does
it mean anything to tell the victim to be peaceful?
No, without justice you cannever have peace. That's why Lady Justice
carries a sword in one hand and a balance in the other. The sword
represents the authority of law to enforce peace and punish
criminals.But the sword would be meaningless without the balance,
which indicates the principles of fairness onwhich laws must be built.
This representation of justice is common, and in some versions the
lady is blindfolded, indicating the justice should be applied equally
to all regardless of race or social status.
War, bigotry and hatred are not the original human condition. They are
not inevitable. They don't represent the natural state of the human
heart.
1. War is almost always a product of greed and selfishness.
2. Bigotry is not a natural human trait, but is usually bred and
whipped up by cynical leaders looking to exploitpeople's ignorance for
personal aggrandizement. People like Hitler, or Slobodan Milosevic, or
the politicians and radio hosts who whipped up genocidal hatred in
Rwanda, or even the USA's new crop of radical right-wing fanatics like
Sarah Palin. These peopleexploit ignorance, and not only cater to it
but feed it for political gain.
3. Hatred is not the original human condition, but a product of
oppression and suffering.
Treat people fairly, be honest, and do not covet what is not yours,
and there will be no war. Peaceis not an elusive dream, or a
mysterious goal at the end of some obscure path. The road to peace is
obvious, but it takes unerring honesty, and totaljustice.
So I would amend the saying to, "Act justly and peace will follow.
Choose peace and love will follow."
