The day these accounts were launched, Pope Benedict also invited the
world to send him questions about faith via #AskPontifex . He promised
to respond to some of these questions nine days later. And now,with
tens of thousands ofquestions in hand, @pontifex has answered: Today,

Islamic Stories - , Thirst for Learning

Hadhrat Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) says:
"After the passing away of the Prophet (peace beupon him), I said to an
Ansari friend of mine: 'The Prophet is not now with us. But a large
number of Sahabah are still among us. Let us go to them and get
knowledge of the Islamic practices.' He said: ' Who is going to approach
you for learning a regulation in the presence of these eminent Sahabah?'
I wasnot discouraged. I kept up my quest for knowledge and approached
every person who was supposed to have heard something from the Prophet.
I managed to gather substantial information from the Ansar. If on my
visit to someone of the Sahabah, I found him asleep, I spread my shawl
at the gate and satwaiting. Sometimes my face and body would getcovered
with dust, but I kept sitting till they woke and I was able to contact
them. Some of them said: 'Abdullah you are the cousin of the Prophet;
you could have sent for us. Why did you take the trouble of coming to
our places?' I said to them: 'I must come to you, for I am a student and
you are my teachers.' Some people for whom I had waited said: 'Since
when have you been waiting for us?' I informed them that I had been
sitting there for a pretty long time. They said: 'What a pity! You could
have awakened us from our sleep.' I said: 'I did not like to disturb you
for my own sake.' I thus carried on my pursuits, till there came a time
when people began to flock to me for learning. My Ansari friend
realizedthis at that time and remarked: 'This boy has surely proved
himself more sensible than us.'"
Source: From the book"Stories of the Sahabah" by Shaikh Muhammad
Zakariyya Kaandhlawi.
Besides our quest for knowledge to earn a livelihood in this world, we
must as well gain sufficient knowledge of Islam. No matter what age
group we belong to at this moment, we should atleast have that much
Islamic knowledgewith which we can turn our 24 hours life into worship.
Those with knowledge and practice will be exalted in this world and in
the hereafter.

Islamic Stories - , The Fisherman

An investment banker was at the pier of a smallcoastal village when a
small boat with just one fisherman docked. Inside the small boat were
several large yellow fin tuna. The investment banker complimented the
fisherman on the qualityof his fish and asked how long it took to catch
them.
The fisherman replied,"Only a little while."
The investment banker then asked, "Why didn't you stay out longer and
catch more fish?"
The fisherman said,"With this I have more than enough to support my
family's needs."
The investment banker then asked, "But what do you do with the rest of
your time?"
The fisherman said, "I sleep late, fish a little, play with my children,
take siesta with my wife,stroll into the village each evening and spend
time with my family, I have a full and busy life."
The investment banker scoffed, "I am a Harvard MBA and could help you.
You should spend more time fishing; and with the proceeds, buy a bigger
boat: With the proceeds from the bigger boat you could buy several
boats. Eventually you would have a fleet of fishing boats. Instead of
selling your catch to a middleman you would sell directly to the
processor; eventually opening your own cannery. You would control the
product, processing and distribution. You would need to leave this small
coastal fishing village and move to a big town and eventually to the
thecity where you will run your ever-expanding enterprise."
The fisherman asked,"But, how long will this all take?"
To which the investmentbanker replied, "15 to 20years."
"But what then?" asked the fisherman.
The investment banker laughed and said that's the best part. "When the
time is right you would announce an IPO and sellyour company stock to
the public and become very rich, you would make millions."
"Millions?...Then what?"
The investment banker said, "Then you would retire. Move to a small
coastal fishing village where you would sleep late, fish a little, play
with your kids, take siesta with your wife, stroll to the village in
theevenings and spend timewith your family."
