  • Ihyaail Mayyit Be Fazail-E-Ahle Bayt
    Imam Suyuti's ‘Ihya-Il Mayyit Be Fazaile Ahlul Bayt’ The Dead Become Alive By Grace of the Holy Five A Brief Introduction to the Author and his Book Qady Iyad relates that the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Recognition of the family of Muhammad is freedom from the Fire. Love of the family of Muhammad is crossing over the Sirat. Friendship for the family of Muhammad is safety from the Fire”. Jalaluddin Abdul Rahman Suyuti was born at Cairo and died there in 910 A.H. He travelled to various places in search of knowledge and visited Egypt, Syria, Hejaz, Yemen, India and Africa. His fields of specialization were, the exegesis of the Holy Quran, Traditions, Jurisprudence and Arabic Grammar. At the age of forty years he withdrew from public life and spent all his time writing, compiling and translating books. At the time of his death he had completed nearly 600 books on a range of subjects, including poetry. He was one of the greatest scholars of his time in Cairo, and a well-known figure among his contemporaries. In his own home-town in the district of Isyut he was considered by the people to be a holy personality having miraculous powers. He was a follower of the Shadhali Tariqa (Sufi Order) and a graduate of Al Azhar, the world’s oldest university and Sunni Islam’s foremost seat of learning. The following work of his is most definitely a most precious work and the study of it and its contents a must for all lovers of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family).

  • Muslim Response to “To Be a Pilgrim” Jerusha Tanner Lamptey, Union Theological Seminary Bismillah Al-Rahman Al-Rahim
    Muslim Response to “To be a Pilgrim” Jerusha Tanner Lamptey, Union Theological Seminary Bismillah al-rahman al-rahim. In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. I must begin this evening by expressing my sincere gratitude for the invitation to participate in tonight’s discussion and to hopefully contribute a few additional insights to the many that have already been proffered by Fr. Ryan and Dr. Mintz. In preparation for tonight’s conversation, I found myself, as I oft do, preparing for salat, or the ritual Islamic prayer. This preparation includes performing purification and formulating proper intention, among other things. However, it was not these aspects of my preparation that caught my attention on this occasion. Rather, my attention was directed to another minor yet habitual action I perform with every prayer, a minor adjustment of the directional orientation of the rug on which I pray. I don’t take out a compass and figure the direction technically, but I always move the rug somewhat…and I fancy (perhaps naively) that I can tell when it has been moved into the correct alignment. This rug, of course, faces in the direction of Mecca and the Ka’ba, the site of the annual hajj pilgrimage. And there is a connection with that site that penetrates and pulsates throughout the ritual of prayer and throughout the lives of Muslims. The directional orientation to the Ka’ba is in fact a spiritual and symbolic orientation that shapes understandings of human existence in the world and human relation to God. In my brief remarks tonight, I would like to draw attention to this spiritual and symbolic orientation, building upon Fr.

  • Make This Your Best Ramadan Yet! in the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
    A DAILY PLANNER AND GUIDE FOR ALL AGES! 3655 Wheeler Ave Alexandria, VA 22304 IRUSA.ORG 1-855-447-1001 Tax ID# 95-4453134 Make this your best Ramadan yet! in the name of allah, the most gracious, the most merciful All thanks and praise is due to Allah alone, the Lord of the Worlds. We praise Him, seek refuge with Him, and seek His forgiveness. We seek refuge with Allah from the evils of our souls, and the mistakes in our actions. Whomever Allah Guides, there is none who can misguide him, and whoever Allah misguides, there is none who can guide him. Verily, there is none worthy of being worshipped except Allah, and Muhammad (Peace be upon him) is His servant and Messenger. Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) reminds us in the Qur’an that the month of Ramadan contains limited precious days — with an extraordinary opportunity to reach out and connect to Him. He tells us of this powerfully, All the actions of people are for them, except for fasting. Fasting is for Me and it is I who rewards it. Hence the purpose of this month is Allah — and Allah (swt) alone. Fasting is a means to attain nearness to Him. Keeping this in mind, we must make the most of these days. The best way to take advantage of Ramadan is to develop a Ramadan action plan — because a failure to plan is a plan for failure. If you don’t set goals, it gets difficult to measure yourself and assess the current state of your worship.

  • Haj Al-Qiran Hajj Al-Qiran Involves Combining Umrah and Hajj, with Only One Ihram for Both
    Haj Al-Qiran Hajj al-Qiran involves combining Umrah and Hajj, with only one Ihram for both Stages of Al-Qiran In this section we give details of each stage of Hajj al-Qiran and provide advice on the rituals that must be performed if the Hajj is to be completed satisfactorily. Ihram Bathe yourself (ghusl). Put on the white clothing of Ihram. The white garment of the Ihram consists of two pieces of white cloth: the cloth covering the upper part of the body is the Rida'; the cloth covering the lower part of the body is the Izar. After donning the white garment of Ihram and verbally declaring the intention to perform Umrah and the specific type of Hajj, recite the Talbiyah. Now that you are in a state of Ihram, you are subject to a number of prohibitions. You must NOT: wear sewn clothes cut or pluck hair clip nails cover your head wear perfume engage in sexual intercourse Other prohibitions include entering into a marriage contract, hunting, or cutting down trees in the Sacred Precinct. Performing the Welcome Tawaf and Sa'y The correct procedure for these rites is set out in the Rituals of Umrah but we repeat them here for the convenience of the user: Enter the Holy Sanctuary (al Masjid al Haram), preferably right foot first through the Bab as-Salam gate, reciting the Talbiyah: 'Labbayk, Allahumma Labbayk. Labbayk, La Shareeka laka labbayk. Innal-hamda wan-ni'mata laka wal-mulk La shareeka lak' The above means: 'Here I am O Allah, (in response to Your call), here I am.

  • Mistranslations of the Prophets' Names in the Holy Quran: a Critical Evaluation of Two Translations
    Journal of Education and Practice www.iiste.org ISSN 2222-1735 (Paper) ISSN 2222-288X (Online) Vol.8, No.2, 2017 Mistranslations of the Prophets' Names in the Holy Quran: A Critical Evaluation of Two Translations Izzeddin M. I. Issa Dept. of English & Translation, Jadara University, PO box 733, Irbid, Jordan Abstract This study is devoted to discuss the renditions of the prophets' names in the Holy Quran due to the authority of the religious text where they reappear, the significance of the figures who carry them, the fact that they exist in many languages, and the fact that the Holy Quran addresses all mankind. The data are drawn from two translations of the Holy Quran by Ali (1964), and Al-Hilali and Khan (1993). It examines the renditions of the twenty five prophets' names with reference to translation strategies in this respect, showing that Ali confused the conveyance of six names whereas Al-Hilali and Khan confused the conveyance of four names. Discussion has been raised thereupon to present the correct rendition according to English dictionaries and encyclopedias in addition to versions of the Bible which add a historical perspective to the study. Keywords: Mistranslation, Prophets, Religious, Al-Hilali, Khan. 1. Introduction In Prophets’ names comprise a significant part of people's names which in turn constitutes a main subdivision of proper nouns which include in addition to people's names the names of countries, places, months, days, holidays etc. In terms of translation, many translators opt for transliterating proper names thinking that transliteration is a straightforward process depending on an idea deeply rooted in many people's minds that proper nouns are never translated or that the translation of proper names is as Vermes (2003:17) states "a simple automatic process of transference from one language to another." However, in the real world the issue is different viz.

  • Light in Her Eyes FINAL
    POV Community Engagement & Education DISCUSSION GUIDE The Light in Her Eyes A Film by Julia Meltzer and Laura Nix www.pbs.org/pov LETTER FROM THE FILMMAKERS LOS ANGELES, 2012 Filmmaker Julia Meltzer Filmmaker Laura Nix Photo courtesy of Tracey Landworth Photo courtesy of Anne Etheridge In a courtyard off a busy street in Damascus, Syria, boisterous girls run and play before class starts in the women’s side of Al-Zahra mosque. Inside the mosque, preacher Houda al-Habash teaches the Quran, educating women and girls about their religion, and their rights, within their faith. Julia Meltzer lived in Damascus in 2005, and from the moment she first entered Al-Zahra mosque, she recognized what a unique place it was. Houda’s school was well-organized and energized—filled with women and girls supporting each other in their studies. Most people don’t associate Islam with women’s rights, and that’s exactly what we found interesting about the Al-Zahra Mosque Quran School. Inside this community, we uncovered a lively debate about women’s roles as mothers, teachers, wives, workers, sisters and daughters. Houda insists that secular education is an integral part of worship, because it gives her stu- dents the tools to make decisions about their futures. However, the school also emphasizes the importance of modesty and piety. These women and girls are following “the straight path” of Islam, because they want to live according to its structure, rules and ethics. DISCUSSION GUIDE The Light in Her Eyes |2 LETTER FROM THE FILMMAKERS Houda’s version of women’s rights doesn’t look like ours.
