I mailed this story some months ago. Fathima Rukaiya Beebee is a 34 years old lady from Kalpitiya (Puttlam District). She was born to a very poor Muslim family. Their Islamic knowledge was also very poor. So she eloped/ran away with a Buddhist guy at a young age. She now has three children. We visited her and told them about Islam. She is willing to come back to Islam but the her husband doesn’t want to embrace. Continue Reading »

Believing that every single thing belongs to Allah (nothing is ours though we claim so), and wealth is therefore held by us is a trust is one of the most important principles of Islam.
The word Zakah means ‘purification’ and ‘growth’. In other words, our wealth is purified by setting aside a part of it for those in need. This is similar to pruning of a plant. The wealth is purified and grown by cutting back the balances. Continue Reading »

Assamalu Alaikum my brother, my sister,
We live in joyous days. We are at the dawn of 2010 Ramadan fasting days. There is hardly any Muslim I know who doesn’t feel elated to welcome Ramadan fasting. Inshallah Muslims throughout the world are beginning the obligatory Ramadan fasting in the next few days. The specific day may be a day or two different according to your place and country. But the intention is the same. Obeying Allah subahanahut-thala and performing a great act for Allah’s sake.
Brother Shiraz has already written a beautiful article here about Ramadan 2010 around the corner. But along with a poster about Ramadhan fasting, I’d like to publish these thoughts too.

Charity in Ramadan – Dry ration distribution 2010
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Islam, Assalamu Alaikum Warahmathullah,
Allah’s Messenger Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said:“If the mountain of Uhud were turned into gold for me, I would not like three nights to pass and one dinar still be left with me, excepting what I would leave for paying my debts” meaning, he would not rest until his money was spent in Allah’s cause.
DA’WAH CORNER’s Dry ration distribution charity targets the poor and the needy among both the Reverts and the Muslims. Last year Allah helped us to distribute 51 packs, Alhamdulillah. But this year, Insha Allah, the target quantity will be more than 1000. Continue Reading »

Dear Brother and Sister in Islam, Assalamu Alaikum,

Usually people use the word ‘Da’wah’ for the act of conveying the message of Islam, without differentiating whether the person being addressed is a Muslim or a non-Muslim. Many consider ‘Da’wah’ and ‘Islaah’ to be one and the same activity. The appropriate word used for inviting a non-Muslim to Islam is ‘Da’wah’ and for providing correct and additional knowledge of Islam to a Muslim is ‘Islaah’.
