#life in madinah

[fluffy-appa]

People are forgetting the sanctity and honour of makkah and madinah. Treating umrah like it's a trend.

Making tiktoks, v-logs and what not.

Where's your respect?

Where's your morals?

If Allah have blessed you with this opportunity, please do it right.

Perjalanan Umroh Pertama

Cerita ke-sembilan, dalam rangkaian… Setelah 3 hari tinggal dan menjadi tetangga Rasulullah di Madinah, kini saatnya melakukan perjalanan ke Mekkah untuk melakukan ibadah umroh pertama, biasanya disebut umroh wajib didalam itinerary oleh pihak travel. Sebenarnya tidak pernah rela berpisah dan keluar dari kota suci ini. Sungguh sebenarnya bukan terharu, melainkan sedih ketika melakukannya. Namun…

Ali (RA) became deeply entwined in the Islamic movement in Medina, where he served as a deputy and envoy for the Prophet (ﷺ) and became one of his most trusted subordinates.

Old Area in AlMadinah – Street photography

I had quick visit in Madinah west of Saudi Arabia with the family for couple of days, and it was a good chance to photograph & deliver a printed photo and because I took most of the time searching for the person I photographed I only took a few shots along the way. كانت لدي زيارة سريعة مع العائلة إلى المدينة المنورة غرب السعودية لبضعة أيام، وكانت فرصة ممتاز للتصوير ولتسليم أحد الصور المطبوعة…

Khushoo’ in Salah

(Part 4)

The means of developing Khushoo’

4. Thinking about the aayaat and adhkaar being recited during the prayer and interacting with them.

The Qur’aan was revealed to be pondered over. Allah says (interpretation of the meaning): “(This is) a Book (the Quraan) which We have sent down to you, full of blessings that they may ponder over its Verses, and that men of understanding may remember.” [Saad 38:29]. No one can ponder over its verses unless he has some knowledge of the meaning of what he is reciting, so that he can think about it and be moved to tears by it.

•Another way of helping oneself to ponder over the meanings is to repeat aayaat, because this will help one to think deeply and look again at the meanings.

•Another way of helping oneself to ponder over the meanings is to memorize Quraan and various adhkaar to be recited during different parts of the prayer, so that one may recite them and think about their meanings.

5. Pausing at the end of each ayah:

This is more helpful in understanding and thinking about the meaning, and it is the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ , as Umm Salamah (رضي اللّٰه عنه ) described how the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would recite, “Bismillah il-Rahmaan il-Raheem”, and according to one report, he would pause, then say, “Al-hamdu Lillaahi Rabbi‟l- „Aalameen, al-Rahmaan, al-Raheem.” Then according to one report, he would pause, then say, “Maaliki yawm il-deen,” and he would break up his recitation ayah by ayah. (Reported by Abu Dawood, no. 4001; classed as Saheeh by al-Albaani in al-Irwaa‟, where its isnaads are described. 2/60).

•Pausing at the end of each ayah is Sunnah even if the meaning continues into the next ayah.

•Reciting in slow, rhythmic tones (tarteel) and making one’s voice beautiful when reciting. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) “would recite a surah in such slow rhythmic tones that it would be longer than would seem possible.” (Reported by Muslim, no. 733).

•Another way of helping oneself to have khushoo’ is by making one’s voice beautiful when reciting. This is something that was advised by the Prophet ﷺ , as when he said, “Beautify the Qur‟an with your voices, for a fine voice increases the Quraan in beauty.” (Reported by al-Haakim, 1/575; Saheeh al- Jaami‟, no. 3581).

6. Knowing that Allah responds to prayers:

The Prophet ﷺ said: “Allah ﷻ has said: I have divided the prayer between Myself and My slave, into two halves, and My slave shall have what he has asked for.” When the slave says “Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds”, Allah says, “My slave has praised Me.” When the slave says, “The Most Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy,” Allah says, “My slave has extolled me.” When the slave says, “Master of the Day of Judgement,” Allah says, “My slave has glorified me.” When the slave says, “It is You alone we worship and it is You alone we ask for help,” Allah says, “This is between Me and My slave, and My slave shall have what he asked for.” When the slave says, “Guide us to the Straight Path, the path of those whom You have favoured, not the path of those who receive Your anger, nor of those who go astray,” Allah says, “All these are for My slave, and My slave shall have what he asked for.” (Saheeh Muslim).

•This is a great and important hadith. If everyone kept it in mind when he prays, he would attain immense khushoo’ and al-Faatihah would have a great impact on him. How could it be otherwise, when he feels that his Lord is addressing him and giving him what he is asking for?

•This “conversation” with Allah must be respected and accorded its proper value. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “When any one of you stands to pray, he is conversing with his Lord, so let him pay attention to how he speaks to Him.” (al-Haakim, al-Mustadrak, 1/236; Saheeh al-Jaami‟, 1538).

[bintturaab]

The last time I came for Umrah was 11 years ago, and being back in Makkah and Madinah is so emotional on so many levels.

Back in 2012, I remember ardently praying to Allah to let my parents accept my change as a Muslim, to let me wear the niqab, among many other things. Returning here for the 2nd Umrah of my life as a niqabi now, chokes my heart with so much emotion subhanAllah. Sometimes when I look at myself in the mirror, I can't believe that I actually get to go out like this, because of the years and years of fighting and struggling I've had to do for it. But alhamdulillah the end result always feels so sweet ♡

The last time when I was here, I made so much dua for my people, for my beloved companions, none of whom are with me anymore. None of them. The ones who still are here, the way they've become, it doesn't really count. Now I'm making dua for a whole different set of people, whose existence I didn't even know about the last time around. I love them all, but thinking back to the ones I started my journey with, it makes me feel some type of way that I cannot name. Somehow I'm back to square one, but having lived a few lifetimes in between.

I remember how 11 years ago, being able to visit the House of Allah and beseeching Him there with a heart full of conviction, literally changed my life when I returned, for the better. All the hardships, which were honestly so much worse than anything I have now, all went away alhamdulillah. It was nothing short of miraculous.

When I return this time, I hope my life transforms for the better once more, bi idhnillah. Somewhere between these years, I've lost all hope in this dunya. My heart is a different type of broken than it was before. But there's no way we could ever lose hope in Allah, when He is the source of all hope, عز وجل

{وَلَوْلَا فَضْلُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَتُهُ وَأَنَّ اللَّه رَوُوفٌ رَحِيمٌ} ♡

THE FEMALE COMPANIONS OF THE PROPHET (PBUH): Part 17

HAMNA BINT JAHSH (radhiallahu anha)

Hz. Hamna was the daughter of Umayma bint Abdulmuttalib, the paternal aunt of the Prophet. She was also the sister of Zaynab bint Jahsh, one of the wives of the Prophet. Thus, she was the sister-in-law of the Prophet. She became a Muslim in the first years of Islam. She was loyal to the Prophet with her heart. She was married to Mus’ab bin Umayr, one of the great Companions. They led a happy life.

Hz. Mus’ab took part in the battle of Uhud and fought heroically.

The Muslims were about to gain a big victory but when the archers located by the Messenger of Allah left their places, the course of the battle changed. The Muslims were defeated. It was also rumored that the Messenger of Allah was martyred.

When the female Companions who were in Madinah heard this, they ran to the battlefront. Hamna bint Jahsh, the wife of Mus’ab bin Umayr, was also among them. When they heard that the Messenger of Allah was alive, they became very happy.

However, Hz. Mus’ab was martyred. In addition, Hz. Hamna’s brother Abdullah bin Jahsh and her maternal uncle Hz. Hamza was also martyred. The Prophet wanted to give this news to Hamna himself. When Hamna came over to him, he said,

“O Hamna! Show patience and seek reward from Allah!”

Hamna said,

“O Messenger of Allah! For whom shall I show patience?”

The Prophet said,

“For your maternal uncle Hamza.”

Hz. Hamna was a woman who believed in qadar. She said,

“We are slaves of Allah and we will return to Him. May Allah show him mercy and forgive him! May Allah give him glad tidings and rejoice him with the reward of martyrdom!”

The Prophet said,

“O Hamna! Show patience and seek reward from Allah!”

Hamna said,

“O Messenger of Allah! For whom shall I show patience?”

The Prophet said,

“For your brother.”

Hz. Hamna said in patience and resoluteness,

“We are slaves of Allah and we will return to Him. May Allah show him mercy and forgive him! May Allah give him glad tidings and rejoice him with the reward of martyrdom!”

The Prophet said,

"O Hamna! Show patience and seek reward from Allah!”

Hamna said in suspense,

“O Messenger of Allah! For whom shall I show patience?”

The Prophet said,

“For Mus’ab bin Umayr.”

Hz. Hamna, who had not lost her patience and resoluteness up to that time, changed suddenly. She thought about her children and started to cry by saying,

Thereupon, the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said,

“There is no doubt that a man has a different place in the eye of his wife. Hamna showed patience and resoluteness when she heard about the death of her maternal uncle and brother but she could not maintain her resoluteness when she heard the death of her husband.”( Sirah, 3: 104. )

Hz. Hamna could not show the same patience for her husband but she did not oppose qadar. She calmed down with the prayer and consolation of the Messenger of Allah.

Hamnah later married Talha bin Ubaydullah, one of the ten Companions who were given the good news that they would go to Paradise. They led a happy life. They had two children called Muhammad and Imran.
