Google's awesome new App
Their Maps App (Application) being out of Apple's iOS 6 may havehogged
headlines in recent times. The big news from the world of Apps has
been the launchof its new exploration App called Field Trip. A
"location-aware" App, Field Trip dishes out interesting facts about
whichever place you might be in, even without prompting or searching.
Call it an always aware discovery engine right in your hands.
Google's digital assistant App 'Google Now' is a bit similar to 'Field
Trip' but the key difference is it runs and delivers interesting
information without any prompting. Unlike 'Google Now' which is
available only with Android Jelly Bean (4.1) devices, Field Trip is
available on Android handsets running Gingerbread (2.3) upwards. Check
out the cool new App on Google Play or at the official website —
www.fieldtripper.com.Google has promised the iOS version of the App
forApple mobile devices soon.

-
Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-

Health - Guidelines for tuberculosis notification sent out
Guidelines for tuberculosis notification sent out
-
The Central TB Division has set the ball in motionby setting out
guidelines on how to notify TB cases. The notification has to be done
by health providers, both in the private and public
sector,laboratories, hospitals/clinics/nursing homes.
All stakeholders, both public and private, are required to notify TB
cases when patients havebeen diagnosed or whenanti-TB treatment has
already been initiated. They are supposed to report the cases to the
nodal public health authority "at least on monthly basis," the
Division's FAQ notes. "All cases diagnosed/treated since April 7, 2012
may be notified," states the TB notification module ofNikshay. Nikshay
is an information communication technology (ICT) application developed
bythe government to specifically provide real time surveillance data
of TB cases.
Many options
The notification can be done through hard copy, email, mobile phones
(IVRS or SMS), or by uploading the information directly on to the
Nikshay portal ( http://nikshay.gov.in ). They can also get in touch
with the respectivenearest nodal officers ( http://tbcindia.nic.in )
to notify the cases.
To start with, all health establishments are required to first
register themselves with Nikshay to facilitate the entry of TB cases
notified by them. Notification covers pulmonary and extra-pulmonary TB
cases of all three patient types — new cases, recurrent TB cases (who
were successfully treated earlier), and those whosetreatment is being
changed (either due to failure of current regimen, or initiation of
new treatment regimen).Details of rifampicin resistance — resistant,
sensitive and data not available — are to be provided.
Aside from TB related details, stakeholders are required to provide
the patient's name, address, phone number and personal unique
identification number like driving licence or Aadhaar.
There is bound to be disagreement or resistance from private
practitioners and healthcare establishments in sharingpersonal details
of patients.
"As per MCI code of Ethics – Rules & regulations 2002…it is the duty
of theregistered medical to divulge this information to the authorized
notification official as regards communicable and notifiable
diseases," the FAQ states. "In case ofcommunicable/notifiablediseases,
concerned public health authorities should be informed immediately."
It also states that there are provisions to take punitive/legal action
against those who do notnotify TB cases.
Contentious issue
There is another contentious issue.
The FAQ makes it explicitly clear that the public health staff will
extend "support system for treatment initiation, adherence, follow-up,
default retrieval, and contact tracing" of patients even as they seek
medical care from those "outside" the national TB control programme.
It is true that private practitioners are ill equipped to ensure
"treatment adherence and follow up" of their patients and cannot
tracelost patients. But will all patients who approach private
practitioners like public health staff to come into the picture?
TB was made a notifiabledisease by the government in May this year.
The main intent is for ensuring proper diagnosis and care management,
to have in place a proper mechanism that will help in treatment
adherence (even by those who seek private care) and to "mitigate the
impending drug resistant TB epidemic."
"Complete and accurate data obtained from notification will allow
continuous evaluation of the trend of the disease with better
estimation ofburden/impact," the guidelines state.
The guidance and frequently asked questions (FAQs) on TB notification
have been sent to certain nodal TB institutions, and they in turn have
been asked to disseminate the information to all health care
providers.

The virtue of listening attentively to the Jumu’ah khutbah
* Friday Prayers - - - Will a man be rewarded for listening
attentively to the Jumu'ah khutbah?.
Praise be to Allaah.
Listening attentively to the khateeb on Friday is an obligation, and
it is not permissible for the Muslims to be careless about that and
fidget, talk or ignore the khutbah. The following ahaadeeth have been
narrated concerning the virtues of listening attentively to the
khutbah.
1 – Expiation for sins committed between this Friday and the previous Friday.
It was narrated from AbuHurayrah that the Prophet (peace and blessings
of Allaah be upon him) said:
"Whoever does ghusl, then comes to Jumu'ah, and prays what is decreed
for him, then listens attentively until the khutbah is over, then
prays with him (theimam), will be forgiven (his sins) between that and
the next Jumu'ah, and three days more."
Narrated by Muslim (857); a similar report was narrated from Salmaan
al-Faarisi by al-Bukhaari (883).
2 – For every step he takes to the mosque, thereward of fasting and
praying qiyaam for one year will be recorded forhim.
It was narrated that Aws ibn Aws said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace
and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
"Whoever washes his head and his body (ghusl) on Friday, then sets out
early, is present at the beginning of the khutbah and is close (to the
imam), then listens attentively, for every step he takes he will have
the reward of fasting and praying qiyaam for one year."
Narrated by al-Tirmidhi (496) who said: it is a hasan hadeeth. It was
classed as saheeh by al-Bayhaqi in al-Sunan al-Kubra (3/227) and by
al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Tirmidhi.
3 – The reward for praying Jumu'ah depends on listening attentively.
It was narrated from AbuHurayrah that the Messenger of Allaah (peace
and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
"If you say to your companion, 'Listen attentively' on a Friday, when
the imam is delivering the khutbah, then you have engaged in idle
speech."
Narrated by al-Bukhaari (934) and Muslim (851).
4 – The one who listens attentively will have twokafl of reward.
'Ali ibn Abi Taalib delivered a khutbah in Kufah and said in his khutbah:
If a man sits in a place where he can hear and see (the imam) and
listens attentively and does not engage in idle speech or fidgeting,
he will have two shares of reward. If he stays far away and sits in a
place where he cannot hear but he listens attentively and does not
engage in idle speech or fidgeting, he will have one share of reward.
If he sits in a place where he can hearand see but he engages in idle
speech or fidgets and does not listen attentively, then he will have
one share of sin."
And at the end of that hesaid: I heard the Messenger of Allaah (peace
and blessings of Allaah be upon him) say that.
Narrated by Abu Dawood (1051) and classed as da'eef (weak) by
al-Albaani. A similar report was narrated from Abu Umaamah in a
marfoo' report in al-Mu'jam al-Kabeer (8/165) and in a mursal report
from Yahya ibn Abi Katheer in Musannaf 'Abd al-Razzaaq (3/223).
See the ruling on listening attentively to the Jumu'ah khutbah in the
answer to question no. 45651 .
And Allaah knows best.

Giving the khutbah in the local language
* Friday Prayers - - - Can Khutba on fridays can be delivered in
regional languages. Or its a must that it should be in Arabic.
Praise be to Allaah.
The Friday khutbah is an act of worship which should not be done in
the local language. But ifthere is no one present who speaks Arabic
well, then it is OK to say what the people present will understand. If
the people present do not understand Arabic then it is OK to translate
what they need to know for them after the prayer, orto explain to them
in their language what they need to know.
