must beexercised in order to grow stronger. Those who memorize Quran,
study for advanced degrees, or perform other difficult mental tasks
know that it becomes easier with time. The brain responds by building
neural connections that, essentially, make you smarter.
With the body it's obvious, right? A weightlifter lifts 100 pounds one
week, his muscles get stronger, andthe next week he can lift 105. As
long as he keeps challenging himself, his muscles continue growing, to
the limits of his genetic capacity. If hequits working out, his
muscles shrink.
As for the soul, it is exercised through hardship. There's no getting
around this. Our spiritual muscles are developed by confronting pain
and loss.
Allah says,
"And We will surely test you with something of fear and hunger and a
loss of wealth and lives and fruits…" - Quran, Al-Baqarah, 2:155-157
My friend Bilal Mustapha comments on this verse,
"God has to test us with lost of life, property, love ones, health,
money, beauty, power, influence,prestige, ego, relationships,
knowledge…etc. to provethat we are who we say we are or claim to be,
and there's no shortcut or easy way around it. True Believers have to
be separated from the Fake Ones. With that said, LET'SGET READY TO
RUMMMMMBLLLLLE!!! (in my Michael Buffer voice)"
(Yes, Bilal is much more interesting than I am).
This is why the Prophet Muhammad (sws) said, "When Allah desires
goodfor someone, He tries himwith hardships." (Al-Bukhari)
A bodybuilder must lift huge weights in order to challenge himself. A
believer is tested more severely than the average person because he's
already powerful. A lesser test would be no test at all. It's got to
hit hard, it's got to be heavy.
Then why bother? Wouldn't it be easier to be a weak, apathetic
non-believer and not be afflicted with tests?
Let's read the rest of the ayah quoted above:
"And We will surely test you with something of fear and hunger and a
loss of wealth and lives and fruits, but give good tidings to the
patient, who, when disaster strikes them, say, "Indeedwe belong to
Allah , and indeed to Him we will return. Those are the ones upon whom
are blessings from their Lord and mercy. And it is thosewho are the
[rightly] guided." - Quran 2:155-157
Those tests bring blessings and mercy fromAllah, in ways we see
anddon't see. They help us lead lives of meaning, and if we are
patient then the results accrue for us in Jannah. From the moment we
die, we see the results of all the tests we suffered. We see light,
and ease, and comfort. I know this because I have been told so in the
Quran and by the Messenger of Allah (sws), and I believe it. It makes
sense to me, and it's confirmed by countless anecdotal near-death
experiences from cultures all over the world.
Don't be jealous when you see that those who commit evil on earth are
living in luxury. The tyrants of the world who steal billions, or the
capitalists who build wealth on the suffering of others, or any who
gain coin through haram means; and even those whose work is halal but
who hold their money back from the needy :- that wealth is an anvil
around their necks. It is their test, and most of them are failing
miserably.
Don't fear hardship. When the time comes to exercise your spiritual
muscles, stay firm in faith. This is how we grow into our potential,
how we prove ourselves. In the words of Helen Keller, who was blind
and deaf from childhood and yet became an author and women's rights
advocate, "We could never learn to be brave & patient, if there were
only joys in the world."
This is Allah's manhaj , His way, His methodology of life. It makes
perfect sense because it's rooted in the way things really work. So
let's welcome the opportunity to use our spiritual muscles.
This is not all theoretical for me. The day I wrote this article, I
was treated badly by someone close to me, I was stressed about the
future, and I was berating myself for not being as good a father as I
would like. Strangely enough it was also the day of the Eid picnic,
and amid the crowd of Muslim families I found myself feeling very
alone.
So I wrote this piece for all of you and as a reminder to myself,
because I do know the solution: Pray, meditate, contemplate Allah's
love and care for you. Enjoy what you have. Appreciate the small
things in life. Be brave. Dare to dream, and then make those dreams
happen. Lift that weight, move that rock, and forge ahead with a
straight back and clear sight.

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*
-
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)./-

Spiritual Muscles
Look Beyond the Packaging: How to Choose a Husband, Wife or Friend
--

Is his hair nicely styled? Ishe the perfect height? Are his dimples so
cute when he smiles?
Is her makeup just right? Does her body have the perfect curves? Do
her feet arch perfectly in those killer high heels?
This is packaging, it's irrelevant.
American, Pakistani, Arab, African, black, white, this is a veneer.
These qualities are insignificant by any true, spiritual standard.
When you're feeling ill and are curled up in bed, it's not an Arab or
American whoholds your hand and tells you that it will be okay, who
takes your temperature and cools your forehead with a towel, who makes
you chicken soup with lemon… it's a human being, a husband or wife who
loves you.
We must get beyond superficial and meaningless classifications like
race and nationality. In one ofthe most powerful condemnations of
tribalism that I have ever read, the Prophet Muhammad (sws) said, in a
hadith narrated by At-Tirmidhi and Abu Dawud,
"There are people who boast of their dead ancestors; but they are more
contemptible in thesight of Allah than the black beetle that rolls
dung with its nose. Behold, Allah has removed from you the arrogance
of the time of Jahiliyyah (Ignorance) with its boasting of ancestral
glories. Man is but a God-fearing believer or a miserable sinner. All
people are the children of Adam, and Adam was made from dust."
And about the impulse to nationalism and racism ingeneral, he said,
"Leave it, it is rotten." (Agreed upon).
Alright, how about this: That guy wanting to court you, is his Armani
suit cut just right? Are his shoes sleek and stylish?
That woman who caught your eye, does her dress drape elegantly on her figure?
You know what? That Armani suit can't stand on its own. It needs a
hangar to stay upright. That elegant dress can't raise your children
right.
We must learn to look beyond appearances. I'm not saying that
appearance is irrelevant, but how much of our attraction is based on
true human beauty, and how much is based on distorted standards and
poisonous imagery pumped into our brains by TV, movies, and
advertising? In other words, to what degree have we been brainwashed?
The world of advertising teaches us to focus on the wrong things.
Consultants are paid millions to design the perfect package for a
boxof cereal or an energy drink, just the right shape and bright color
tocatch your eye and enticeyou to open your wallet. Meanwhile, the
product –likely as not – is actually bad for you, consisting ofsugar,
salt, chemicals anddyes. These advertisers are teaching us to make
choices based on packaging and image.
What they are teaching us is entirely ruinous and wrong.
Human beings are not consumer products. We're not disposable. When you
marry someone you're in it for the long haul. You're with them when
they wake up in the morning with crust in their eyes and hair pressed
to one side of the their head; when they get laid off from work
because the company is "downsizing", and you don't know how the bills
will get paid next month; when they're depressed, tired, sick; when
they make mistakes, when they say and do the wrong things, when
theylose their temper, when they're afraid or insecure…
This is as serious as it gets. This is life, and a shiny but empty
package won't get you through it,won't help on you the path, won't
hold you up when you're weak, or make you laugh when you're down. The
package can't do that. Remember that when you buy something, the
package ends up in the trash. If you choose someone for the
packageonly, you may be bitterly disappointed when the storm comes and
no one is there to shelter you, or to hold.
These are lessons learnedthrough heartache and disappointment.
Look deeper. Find a gentle and honest heart, a strong backbone, a
striving spirit. Look to what the person does, how they live, how they
treat people, how they relate to the Almighty. Look to that shimmering
soul inside, and discern whether it's a selfish and bitter soul, or
loving and true. Look beyond the packaging to the core, and trust your
God-given instincts, and you'll find yourself a rare happiness,a
precious partnership, or a true friend.
The most beautiful, powerful things in the world don't come in
disposable packages. Mountains, trees, ocean, sky, stars… their true
attributes are bared to the world. They don't need packages because
they are stunning and profound in their essence.
As someone said, beautiful things are not always good, but good things
are always beautiful.
By basing your life choices on matters of substance, you'll avoid
social and financial traps that ruin so many. You'll build friendships
as real and solid as mountains, with people you can trustwith your
reputation, your heart and your life. You'll do work that matters, and
leave a legacy that improves people's lives in unforgettable ways.

you your earlier errors and any later ones and complete His blessing
upon you, and guide you on a Straight Path. And so that Allah may help

theMasjid al-Haram in safety, Allah willing, shaving your heads and
cutting your hair without any fear."He knew what you did not know and
ordained, in place of this, an imminent victory. (Surat al-Fath, 27)

is incumbent upon Us to rescue the believers. (Surah Yunus, 103)

In the end times, even more than in the case of past peoples, there will be a great increase in murders and an oppressive system on earth
- < - ▓███▓ - "Published by, M NajimudeeN Bsc - INDIA|®|- -
- - * - Translator:: http://translate.google.com/m/ -▓███▓ - -
- > - > Summarizing in general statements the oppressive
system brought with it by Darwinist logic may not be sufficient for
some people to grasp the terrible scourge it inflicted on the world.
For that reason, it will bemuch better to describe the scope of this
scourgeby showing clear evidence of the oppressive system underwhich
people are living.
There is but one reason for the current extraordinary increase in
murders in many countries of the world, the way that killing has come
to be perfectly normal, mass slaughter being committed with complete
sang froid and people maintaining that same sang froid as they look
on: the fact that people regard one another as advanced species of
animal. A student who guns down his teachers and fellow students in
any country in Europe, under the idea that the weak need to be
eliminated is the product of the same mindset that goes to villages in
Africa and wipes out the people there. Hitler, Stalin, Lenin, Mao and
Mussolini, who shed too much blood, were also the products of that
mindset. The starting point for all of them wasDarwinism. Because
under perverted Darwinist logic, there is no reason why someone
regarded as a supposedly irresponsiblespecies of animal, especially if
he or she has been branded as weak and powerless by people with
Darwinist mentalities, should remain alive at all. Indeed, according
to their revolting logic, killing and eliminating them is a natural
process, and even a formof "purification" that will allow progress to
bemade.
The reason that murder has become so widespread in the End Times, that
killing is seenas so easy and slaughter is regarded as normal is that
Darwinism has established a false dominion across the world. This is
revealed inhadith handed down from our Prophet (saas) 1400 years ago:
The Hour [Last Day] will not be established until murders increase.
(Death-the Last Day-The Hereafter, p. 468)
Hazrat Mahdi (as) will not emerge until innocent people are massacred,
and he will appear when those on earth and up in the sky can no longer
put up with such massacres ... (Ibn Hajar al-Haythami, Al-Qawl
al-Mukhtasar fi `Alamat al-Mahdi al-Muntazar, p. 37)
Hadith handed down from our Prophet (saas) also report a spread of
immorality in the End Times:
The Hour will come when adultery becomes widespread. (Ramuz al-Ahadith, 91/7)
The Hour will come when adultery becomes widespread. (Sahih Bukhari)
The Last Hour will not beestablished until they [wicked people] commit
adultery on the roads [public ways]. (Ibn Hibban and al-Bazzar)
The Hour will draw nigh when men are content with men and women are
content with women. (Mukhtasar Tazkirah al-Qurtubi)
Time will come when adultery with women will be committed in the
middle of the road. Nobody will object to this. (Muhammad ibn '`Abd
ar-Rasul Barzanji, Al-Isha`ah li -Ashrat as-Sa`ah, p. 142)
The End Times will be a period when vice and perversion are committed
openly, and even approved of by certain circles. It is of course
Darwinist, materialist ideology thatconstitutes the infrastructure for
this. Because since Darwinist ideology rejects belief inAllah,
recognizes no moral values and regards human beings as supposed
species of animal, it is natural for this heretical philosophythat has
spread across the world to give rise to such dreadful consequences.
In the End Times, immorality and inhumanity will literally be
justified in many countries, under the guise of "modernity," "courage"
and "freedom," the main slogans for this propaganda. Having a modern
world view, following the events of the day and being open to novelty
are without doubt excellent characteristics. But it is deceptive to
use this as avehicle for immorality and degeneration.
The climate of the End Times will overflow withfactors that trigger
and support this moral collapse. Indeed, so-called places of
entertainment such as bars and night clubs have literally become
places that make immorality a sector all ofits own. Making money out
of the prostitution sector has been legalized and supported by a
number of states. This can be better understood by considering the
position in various Far East countries. Under the effect of
indoctrination from various circles, efforts are being made to portray
homosexuality as legitimate and ordinary, and it is literally
encouraged on TV and inthe written press. Various issues that open the
way for this perversion, such as homosexual rights, homosexual
associationsand homosexual marriage are discussed quite blatantly, and
these perversions are even protected under some countries' laws. The
immorality on display on various TV channels and in various magazines
in many partsof the world shows that extramarital relations, living
off prostitution, homosexuality, gambling, corruption and waste are
widespread and, even more important, such reports and images can even
encourage the less aware sections of societyto adopt a similar life
style.
The comprehensive spread of prostitution and the literal encouragement
thereof by the written and visualmedia is important in showing the
terrible scale of the moral collapse in the End Times. Sometimes very
young children are even forced into prostitution by their own
families. People are encouraged to engage in extramarital relations,
and these are regarded as quite normal by society. Intense
indoctrination along those lines is provided on the TV, in films and
soap operas. The children resulting from extramarital relations have
come to constitute a major social problem. Large numbers of children
are abandoned every year, and some of these children spend their lives
out on the streets, in the clutches ofdrugs and prostitution. This
picture in the End Times was described in the hadith by our Prophet
(saas) 1400 years beforehand:
Children of adultery will grow in number. Many people will commit
adultery with women in the middle of the street. (Muhammad ibn 'Abd
ar-Rasul Barzanji, Al-Isha'ah li Ashrat as-Sa'ah, p. 140.) As we have
seen, the way that many societies in variouscountries regard as
perversion and immorality as legitimate is a perfect cover for
Darwinism to spread anger, war and eating what is unlawful on a
widespread basis. The End Times is witnessing a huge and comprehensive
moral degeneration because this perverted mentality has spread all
over the world. All the requisite conditions for the existence and
survival ofan unrestrained society in the End Times are provided when
that society has a Darwinist structure.
Under the influence of the Darwinist media in many countries, the
concepts in question, described as immorality and fiercely condemned
until 50-60 years ago, are currently regarded as perfectly normal by
the majority of people. The fact is, however, that adultery is a
terriblecrime and sin condemned by Allah. As our Lord reveals in one
verse:
And do not go near to fornication. It is an indecent act, an evil way.
(Surat al-Isra', 32)
All Forms of Evil Will Be Admired in the End Times, and Sins Will Be
Regarded As Lawful
Our Prophet (saas) said that in the End Times theunbelievers in
society would entirely turn theirbacks on the moral values of the
Qur'an and that unlawful things would be regarded as lawful:
Hazrat Mahdi (as) will emerge following the occurrence of such vile
fitna, whereby all of the prohibitions are regarded as lawful. (Ibn
Hajar al-Haythami, Al-Qawl al-Mukhtasar fi `Alamat al-Mahdi
al-Muntazar, p. 23)
"Unlawful things being regarded as lawful… is one of the signs of the
Judgment Day." (Imam Sharani, Death-The Judgment Day-The Hereafter, p.
454)
The End Times will be an age when all kinds of evil take place
together, and when these are actually desired by certain sections of
society. In the Qur'an, Allah advises people to behave according to
good conscience. It will be a time when all evils spread deliberately
in society and taught as if they were law in schoolsand workplaces and
perverted ideas regarded as completely justified thrive. Moral virtue,
love, respect, loyalty, understanding, and humility are replaced by
cheating, fraud, ruthlessness, selfishness and self-interest. In
societies in which this ugly state of affairs prevails, care will be
taken to keep these evils dominant andpowerful. Much use will be made
of lies. Hypocrisy dominates everywhere in the societies that undergo
this moral collapse. The insecurity inflicted by hypocrisy and
self-interest is everywhere.
Envy is inevitably at the forefront. It is even encouraged in society
asa manifestation of love. While humility is praisedin the Qur'an,
people areencouraged to be arrogant and to disparage and oppress one
another. One of the worst consequences of this is the spread of
aggression, greed and lack of compassion.
Yet our Almighty Lord tells us the true position of arrogant people:
' Ad were arrogant in the land, without any right, saying, "Who has
greater strength than us?" Did they not see that Allah, Who created
them, had greater strength than them? But they renounced Our signs.
(Surat al-Fussilat, 15)
The moral values of the Qur'an tell people to loveone another and to
hold their rights above their own, but the twisted idea of the
survival of the strong and advantaged brought with it by Darwinist
ideology has become settled in society. For them, there is a climate
of struggle to the death. According to their mistaken way of thinking,
"Man is a species of animal. He is subject to the same biological laws
as animals. To put it another way, man must also live by the law of
the jungle." This twisted logic coming to dominance across the world
is one of the proofs that society in theEnd Times will be different to
and more troubled than those of other times.
Darwinist logic has even gone so far as to maintain that rape, is
"exceedingly natural behavior" that has come down from man's supposed
animal forebears. According to these people, just like rape,
homosexuality, an utterly perverted form ofbehavior, is also the
product of natural selection. There is no reason why people who think
like that should not also regard incest in the same light. When every
perversion is ascribed to supposedly "natural" causes, it is easy to
justify them through false suggestion. To indoctrinate some people by
turning them away from the fact that such perversions are unlawful and
immoral and make them think this is a natural and genetic form of
behaviorthat has come down from their supposed forebears thus makes it
very easy to spread such vices. It is as easy to spread this
immorality asit is for this false indoctrination to be knowingly
disseminated.
But all these perversions are unlawful in the Qur'an. Our Almighty Lord says:
Of all beings, do you lie with males, leaving the wives Allah has
created for you? You are a people who have overstepped the limits.
(Surat ash-Shuara, 165-166)

- > - > Summarizing in general statements the oppressive
system brought with it by Darwinist logic may not be sufficient for
some people to grasp the terrible scourge it inflicted on the world.
For that reason, it will bemuch better to describe the scope of this
scourgeby showing clear evidence of the oppressive system underwhich
people are living.
There is but one reason for the current extraordinary increase in
murders in many countries of the world, the way that killing has come
to be perfectly normal, mass slaughter being committed with complete
sang froid and people maintaining that same sang froid as they look
on: the fact that people regard one another as advanced species of
animal. A student who guns down his teachers and fellow students in
any country in Europe, under the idea that the weak need to be
eliminated is the product of the same mindset that goes to villages in
Africa and wipes out the people there. Hitler, Stalin, Lenin, Mao and
Mussolini, who shed too much blood, were also the products of that
mindset. The starting point for all of them wasDarwinism. Because
under perverted Darwinist logic, there is no reason why someone
regarded as a supposedly irresponsiblespecies of animal, especially if
he or she has been branded as weak and powerless by people with
Darwinist mentalities, should remain alive at all. Indeed, according
to their revolting logic, killing and eliminating them is a natural
process, and even a formof "purification" that will allow progress to
bemade.
The reason that murder has become so widespread in the End Times, that
killing is seenas so easy and slaughter is regarded as normal is that
Darwinism has established a false dominion across the world. This is
revealed inhadith handed down from our Prophet (saas) 1400 years ago:
The Hour [Last Day] will not be established until murders increase.
(Death-the Last Day-The Hereafter, p. 468)

and he will appear when those on earth and up in the sky can no longer
put up with such massacres ... (Ibn Hajar al-Haythami, Al-Qawl
