Wa alaykumu salam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh, Yeah, I agree with sister Mafaza; you should perform istikhara and if, after it, you feel that this brother is the right person for you, make lots of dua for Allah to facilitate your union. Make dua every day, every prayer....for Allah has Power...

Wa alaykum salam wa rahmatullah, sister. This is really unfortunate. May Allah help you. Alhamdulillah you had the support of your family and friends and, most importantly, the help of Allah. As for giving our advice/opinions, I believe we shouldn't jump to conclusions from hearing a...

I found this on another forum and thought I'd pass it on:

You can wear tunics with long sleeves (if you can't get, have them sewn for you). You can use those arm-stockings; they're sleeves that start at your elbow....they're like socks so you just put them on after wearing your tunic. If all else fails, wear a light long-sleeved shirt underneath your...

MashaAllah, that was well-written. Jazakillahu khayran for sharing that, sister. It is so true and reflects the situation of parents and their children nowadays. May Allah help us help our children.

MashaAllah! MAy Allah preserve her! May Allah reward your family for taking such good care of her!

Assalamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh, my dear new sister in Islam. I'm so HAPPY for you! MashaAllah and congratulations on your conversion to Islam! How relieved and content you must feel! I must say, sister, that I envy you; all the sins you may have committed before taking the...

Jazakallahu khayran, brother, for the reminder. While we're on the Friday topic, let's all remember to recite surah Kahf on Fridays. Excerpt from an answer on www.islamqa.com: And make lots of dua because:

Sorry brother, I don't mean that the dua is wrong; It is right but the wrong translation was given. The translation was for the other dua that is also said after wudhu. The dua you posted means (roughly): Oh Allah, make me among those who repent and make me among those who purify themselves...

jazakallahu khayran, brother, for posting these. I have to say, though that one of the duas is wrongly written/translated. For example: After wudhu: "Allahummaj 'al-ni minat-tow-wa beena waj-alni minal muta-tah-hireen." Translation: I testify that there is no deity except Allah; He is One...

Jazakillahu khayran, saffhanah, for posting such good answers. And Abdul hai, follow the advice in the first answer....seek refuge from shaytan once you start on such a train of thought.

For the first, amjaddamen has already posted a relevant hadith but the story of the prostitute is also there.....somewhere, too lazy to search for the source but its often quoted. It shows the mercy and generosity of Allah, don't you think? As for the second story, I do not know that story but...

I don't know about writing with the left hand but eating with the left hand is haram. Question: Because of my nephews bad habit he has great difficulty in eating with his right hand. At the moment he uses his left hand when there is nobody to remind him. I am worried about this, so, what is...

Wow MashaAllah...that made tears come to my eyes....its a beautiful story

Is it ok if I share it with others? I mean post it for others to read?
