Tears of missing the Haramain



And Allah The Most Knowing and All Hearing knows all.


As I watch the very few people circumbulating the Holy Shrine of prophets Abraham and Muhammad (may peace and blessings of Allah be upon them both and their progeny), the Ka’abah, I feel my soul move, and tears begin to well up. 

I pray that this fear pandemic will stop. I pray to be able to visit there once more. I remember my last trip there. 

I see that people are behaving with respect. I don’t see people rushing in their devotion. I don’t see people grappling to touch the Hajar Aswad.

I believe it is this time when people are supposed to learn the better ways of behavior. I realise that is the lesson of this pandemic. That humans will take the time to slow down, remember God’s graciousness and mercy. That people are supposed to learn to help and look out for one another rather than be enemies. I believe that as soon as this lesson is learned, the fear of pandemic suffering will disappear and ease will once again be given to humans. 

I remember the words from traditions, when Allah destroyed many tribes and nations before this, because of disobedience. And if Allah wanted to, humans could easily be replaced by another creation of intelligent beings. 

We are suppose to rise above our desires and use our heightened abilities to exist and coexist as a part of Allah’s creations,

to improve, appreciate and take care of this earth and our environment before we destroy it with foolishness and greed. 

As I watch the few people at the Ka’abah, I can’t help but weep at this realization.

How to start making visible improvements in self that lasts.

 It's all very well for people to say change yourself if you're not happy. It's all very well to say your inner self reflects your outer world. Although that may be true, the question many face is how does one do it?

I believe that a faith system is one of the fundamental factors that help with this process of inner change. When one chooses a faith, one must be dedicated to reading and following the guidance within that faith. Essentially, the practices of the faith will be the source of comfort and wisdom. I am a certified emotion code practitioner aside from having a degree in psychological sciences. What I discovered is that energy healing works. Releasing trapped emotions does encourage well-being and with a basic faith based system in place. Yet, it doesn't seem enough. Why? The reason many find difficulty and struggles with blind faith is that people do not know what their real capabilities and potentials are. Here is where a combination of psychology tools assist dramatically. It empowers a person and the path seems to open wider. Things become clearer and people will find their way to becoming their true self.

Firstly, when I clear trapped emotions for a person, I also ask them fill out a personality survey and a VIA character strengths survey result. The reason I do this is because the results indicate a base personality. Upon reflection, one may compare personality traits and if in reality they are being authentic based on results. It must be understood that conditioning, priming and environment have a huge impact on our subconscious. We are being constantly bombarded by the outer world. It affects our inner world. That is, our thoughts, emotions and decisions are affected. For example, sometimes, a person may react impulsively, but results from the personality test may show they are not impulsive by trait. Emotions have a way of over ruling logic. Now, when you realise your true nature, you may find that all those factors have impacted your self, life and decisions along the way. Another example, if you are actually low in extraversion, but find in your real world you are considered extraverted, but deep inside you don't like nor feel such, or perhaps a job or profession demands that you act extraverted. Doesn't then this impact on you?

Next, VIA character strengths are 24 strengths and these are reflected upon answering a survey. While a person retrieves these answers and find their top five strengths, they can then analyse if they are using or have used these strengths. These strengths are believed to add increased wellbeing and quality of life. Sometimes, we overuse certain greater strengths and this can have a negative impact. Sometimes, we use our medium or lesser strengths and this may cause internal struggle. The analogy is like climbing a steep hill and falling a little, never reaching the top. As one evolves by using this combination of techniques, characters strengths results shuffle, therefore showing the effects of positive changes made.

Think about it, if you can determine the facts from your own answers and compare these to your reality, wouldn't you then find it easier to make the much needed changes to improve your overall life? Would you be less confused? Would you have more encouragement? Would you feel self empowered? Would you find inner peace?

Finally, when we have this understanding, we learn to respect individual differences, we learn to trust ourselves and then others, solely for the fact that we are being our authentic selves.

I am confident that this method works. I believe it is the fastest, simplest and most affective way of beginning the changes needed to reboot self.

Invest in yourself and start to live a life of difference with authentic happiness and wellbeing, which lasts. I will be happy to coach and mentor you.

My Ancestry, Heritage, Genetics, Genealogy and History

 I have always been so interested in genealogy. It stemmed from my being born in Singapore but looking so different to many others and more significantly, I felt "out of place". Since 2010, my family have been gathering information and building a family tree in Geni. I have to commend them on their endurance and enthusiasm. After 10 years, many more have contributed to this tree. Recently, there has been a surge of interest in genealogy and DNA testing has been popular. It fuelled my interest to discover more about myself and my heritage. So, I did DNA testing with 23andme and My Heritage. Additionally, my children, parents and siblings also did the tests. I have since realised I have thousands of genetic relations all around the world. It is amazing. I endeavoured to research more about my Irish heritage because I feel that the Irish genes are strong in me. I discovered Sir Richard O'Farrell is my 9th great grandfather. He was a soldier in the Confederate Army (1640s). I am related to Sir Richard Branson since we share a third great grandfather. I found out because Lindy Branson, is a genetic cousin on My Heritage. Since I knew of my Irish heritage, I was curious to see if Joe Biden's grandmother is related to me because she was Irish. As it turns out, I am related to Joe Biden through marriage (4 generations before). The story gets more astounding. When you subscribe and pay for services on these websites especially Geni and My Heritage, you will get matches. Especially so if you upload your gedcom files. Since I have two tests on two sites, I maximised the possibilities of matches and information.

Here are the MOST  surprising results of who I am related to after10 years investigation into my ancestry. This was possible because of the technology we possess.


Princess Anna Oldenberg, Queen Consort of Scotland, England and Ireland (9th cousin 11 times removed)

Henry Augustus Dillon-Lee, 13th Viscount Dillon Costello-gallin ($th cousin 7 times removed)

Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, Queen Consort of the united kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland (10th cousin 6 times removed)

Elizabeth II, Queen of the United Kingdom (15th cousin once removed)

Anastasia Irene Maria Monomachos Monomahinya (25th great grandmother)

Constantine IX Monomachos, Byzantine Emperor (26th great grandfather)

Prophet Muhammad (Prophet of Islam Peace be Upon him (PBUH) and his family and friends) {12th cousin 43 times removed}

Amina bint Wahab (Prophet Muhammad's mother) {11th cousin 44 times removed}

Fatimah bint Muhammad (May Allah bless her and her family) {13th cousin 42 times removed}

Husayn ibni Ali bin Abi Talib (Prophet Muhammad's  grandson) {14th cousin 41 times removed}

Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq Bin Muhammad Al-Baqir (15th cousin 40 times removed)

Imam Muhammad Al-Baqir Bin Ali Zain al-Abidin (16th cousin 39 times removed)

Imam Sayyid Ahmad Al-Muhajir Ilallah Al-Muhajir (19th cousin 36 times removed)

Sheikh Abdul Qadir Al-Jilani ( 25th cousin 30 times removed)

Sultan Muhammad Jamalul Alam I (21st Sultan of Brunei) {43rd cousin 12 times removed}

sultan Hassanal Bolkiah (25th cousin twice removed)

Chlothar II the Young, King of the Franks  (39th great grandfather)

I have many genetically related people in my family who will be as astounded to discover all these interesting facts. 

In my opinion, I am now able to trace my entire lineage to Adam and Eve. Adam the first man is the first Prophet of Allah. Abraham was a Prophet of Allah and Father to the Jews, Christians and Arabs. Through the sons of Abraham, Isaac (PBUH) and Ishmael (PBUH), the line of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and Jesus(PBUH) meet. My genetic relation to Muhammad (PBUH) is through his mother, yet through his paternal line, through him (PBUH)... I am connected to them all. 

This finding makes me more certain that peace, love and light as the motto for my blog and website Circle of Love & Light has been the guidance from Allah and the Source of all inspiration and Knowledge. We are spirit in human form and it is all our responsibility to take care of the environment and one another. Mostly, it is our duty to tell the truth that there is only Allah. One.

Observations of the times



I write this today, as I reflect and ponder about afew things.
Firstly, how perception is becoming a major topic in raising higher consciousness.
Next, the spinning of well-being industry, and positive psychology as a way to encourage stressed humans to deal with life's moments.
Further, I look at "new-age" spiritual teachers emerging who share their views on how temporal and "unreal" this world and its contents are. They teach about perception.
Finally, I conclude what this new awakening means for humans who are opening up to the fact that they need some form of guidance toward finding themselves and feeling inner peace.

Perception in psychology, explains that we gather information about the environment from our five physical senses, sight, hearing, smell, touch and taste. These are natural human instincts. How the information is relayed to the brain, how we manage it, what we do with it, how it affects our behaviour from its digestion in the mind, is called perception. That was a brief description of a complex process involving neurons, dendrites, energy, brain chemicals, central nervous system, hypothalamus, amagdala, prefrontal cortex, and so on and so forth; which will bore and confuse anyone uninterested. Basically, modern technology has enabled us to watch how the brain works and understand human behaviour better through the study of psychological science.
Having said that, we cannot watch how this knowledge affects spirit or soul, nor the energy particles of atoms and molecules within and contained in all that exists. I get confused, when the physical and metaphysical is not clearly explained within the new age philosophy, which according to me takes stands of knowledge and weaves it to suit situational circumstances.

It is clear that humans are under pressure to survive in a man-made world of technological advancements and  fast paced life which involves working within constrainments of time and space. The well-being industry boom, is pounding on all social media for humans to take the time to re-charge, find inner peace and reduce stress. There are short courses to enable people who want to learn and train others in regards to well-being and flourishing, based on the minute information they have gathered, regarding perception. I see, CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) offered as a short course. I see reminders of remaining positive in memes and posts. I realise humans are more aware of the need to relax. I wonder if they understand how temporal the world is. I worry about the manipulations of whizz industries which follow trends to make money, preying on humans and those susceptible fall for the campaigns or promotions.

New age spiritual teachers are teaching humans to release negativity, through understanding that what they see is an illusion. That what their senses pick up creates imagery through the mind. They teach that ego is a thing to reckon with, hence that needs to be curtailed if humans want to release anger and aggression issues or anything to do with what I refer to as low human desires. They also teach that the world we live in is made up of energy, atoms and this is all information transported to our brain which we then create our own world with, hence we have the choice to create or re-create our limited space. It is limited because our spatial view is limited. We don't see the bigger picture. But if we understand perception, we will realise that we can only see limitedness of our existence. They want to teach humans to expand perception and realise we are in control and part of an entire span of what is all ENERGY. My question is, what then shall humans do with the acceptance that we are all just energy, matter and antimatter? Does it mean we are spirit in human form or that we aren't physical beings? I don't get it? What are they trying to gather from what information is available through knowledge gathered from research? In positive psychology and among other kinds of treatment for depression or stress, a person who has a form of religious guidance is said to have better outcomes in treatments. So, are we then being fed treatment in the guise of new age "talk"? Certainly, it seems to makes sense to those who want to listen.
Finally in my opinion, all these teachings are great yet not absolute. There are areas in life that cannot yet be recorded nor researched when it comes to the spirit in human form. The energy we are all endowed with, that connects to all that is physical and meta-physical, matter and anti-matter, molecules, atoms and particles; which combined with all created is the mass of energy that flows and never ends, connecting us to higher forms of created beings and to the ultimate atomic battery that charges all , which I call Allah. Higher consciousness just means accepting, understanding and appreciating that we are spirit in human form. We are light. We are energy. We have choice. We can learn to control thoughts, which is an energy that creates an emotion/s; we all perceive things differently, it's called individual differences or preferences ; we are regulated by our environment, by our communities and by whatever we choose in life. We also need to have a higher belief system, which guides us toward ... a good ending. Islam teaches this within Al Qur'an, and the spirtual path of the seeker to the Truth (All Manifest- Al Mubeen) of Islam is called Sufisim. Spiritiual practices are important. I encourage humans to contemplate, "what is the meaning of life"? Where do we head when we cease to exist in the human form? I encourage the human to use innate intuition guided by positive spirituality from a good source, to manage the challenges life will offer. God created humans as the smallest percentage of all creation but according to Islamic teachings, the best of all creations. Sufism will teach humans how to connect by constant recitation, repetition and remembrance of specific supplications; through consistency in these, humans begin to feel better, humbled yet empowered, egoistic tendencies will reduce, better habits and behaviour will manifest; actions seeking higher ascension (solat/salah) in prayer; submission and prostration (head on the ground and assuming the most reverent position in humility to worship God-sajda) will increase, charitable acts will become second nature, inner peace will be illuminated and many more benefits will be apparent.

People: Energies and souls

I have to ponder about coincidences in life among soul mates and between twin energy. I believe that coincidences are signs between people that recognises their connection as souls. As life events are compared, the coincidences are too consistent and similar that they must be reflected upon. How can two people, over a period of time, learn similar things, like many things and feel the same about topics and even change to the same religion? Were they taught by the same force of higher guidance and power to finally unite, as one energy? If so, could we then contemplate that, what some refer to as, twin flames would then inevitable be this double charged duo, who we may refer to as  twin souls because of their identical characters although not physical twins?
Twin souls are comforting whose energies balance and synchronises, reducing conflict if in a relationship. The timeless feature if this relationship is special. The forgiving nature of this relationship is healing. The loving feature of this relationship is unconditional.
We may not be able to test let alone prove this theory but I for one, believe it is possible.

Reviewing twin flame theory

The twin flame theory is based on an assumption that there are twin energies or split souls that traverse the earth and will eventually meet. That they experience a certain locked and magnetic attraction that cannot be described. It also is reported that this experience is a heart wrenching experience until the two are reunited. Accordingly, when this happens, there signs that are revealed; some too coincidental that only a spiritual or energy connection may explain the phenomena.
Interestingly, this experience is likened to a drowning of all sorts of emotions which affect life upon the meeting and if not understood haunts the pair with yearning and feeling of loss, until reunited. In the event these two haven't met, then it is to be expected that their lives will evoke a feeling of looking for "the one" without actually knowing what is being searched.
Having studied this phenomena with great interest previously through self reported experiences of others, it cannot be denied that auric or energies do exist. It is also interesting to experience the unquenchable need, yearn, absorption of the partner, till hurt takes on a deeper emotional meaning because of deep love. The relationship evolves quickly when in touch, in communication, in tuned and everything falls into place. It is also as if all is connected and the puzzle of life eases and  the easel is filled with color from the palette orchestrated by what can only be termed, nature. Even nature then seems to look upon and send discreet messages that the two will suddenly be synchronized to notice simultaneously.; or that without words or even before a text may be sent, a call made or a word spoken; the answer or reaction will be acted on or answered. Truly, it is an incredible experience with no science-based explanation. Yet, energy psychology recognizes that humans have frequencies which we may use to communicate and some more than others. Perhaps it is a deep love that is needed to fulfill the connection, yet what is unexplainable is the connection may transcend time, dimension, space and distance.
I keep an open mind and feel this theory may be worth observing and if ESP is a recognized science in Psychology, then why not the "Twin Flame Theory"?

NDE survivor experience

When death comes there’s no warning. When a person under a near death experience sees a light it’s usually because they will receive a message. It’s a special spiritual experience . When a person comes back from being in the Light; they find they experience some changes in themselves which is priceless. They come back with certain knowledge and skills. They will experience what unconditional love is. Their lives then would usually be in service of others. It’s as if the Light cleanses you. So when a person is to die ; there’s no negotiating. Life is just taken. Unfortunate for the person who isn’t prepared to return home to the Lord because the worldly things prevent them from wanting to leave. They forget Allah SWT is the power over all. And if that certainty without a doubt is within a soul; they would gladly and happily move into the Light; knowing Allah SWT is all good and gives goodness. ~lorrainenur,2017: NDE survivor 1996

Life is the Experiment

Your life, your experiment:
The independent variables can be manipulated; to produce the dependent variable outcome. In between are other factors that may affect the dependent variables ; the variations are unlimited . The things we experience, feel & think affect us, our lives & so likewise in experiments we have endless trials which are based on past trials- so too, life. ~ lorrainenur@2018

Root canal pain and memories

My first root canal at age 53. I have been studying psychology fulltime since age 51. My favourite is cognitive psychology. What does this have to do with my root canal experience?
I have slightly high anxiety when it comes to dentist. It stems from a scare when I was a child; when my sister had a dental appointment. And as I waited for her, all I could hear were her “screams of terror”. This affected me me for many years, such that my first dental experience to fill a tooth was when I was 14. 
To make matters worse, at age 20; unsure of what a root canal meant, I extracted a very good molar that could have been saved. This fault was of course blamed on the lack of information given by the dentist at the time. 
Now, this genuine fear surfaces each dental visit but eventually I have  faced the fear and come out alright. 
The root canal session went well the first time; then the second time which was today. Although the area was anesthetized, logically I understood the  procedure , and while it was in progress with drilling, cleaning, measuring depth, more drilling with various size mini hand held drills; I found myself distracting my thoughts to other matters like reviewing my readings mentally making notes of what I would write. 
When this session was over , my jaw felt rigid but I could close my mouth once again which had been fully opened for 2 hours. The dentist placed a resting bridge to ease the jaw and a lot of modern procedures which makes one feel as comfortable as possible. 
So, after leaving the dentist and driving back, the anesthetic effect  was starting to wear off. By the time I reached home (30 minutes or less) my entire left side of my face, was in pain. 
I took two pain killers, two muscle relaxants and a sedative which was what I needed to feel better and fall asleep.
This is the interesting finding about pain. See, during the procedure to remove the nerve (root canal); the brain has been aware of this invasion, although not felt at the time. This invasion has been recorded. The pain induced must be recorded as a sensation. Thereafter, when the anesthetic wears off , all after-effect pain  is felt. Sleep is then needed to calm the body and mind, by consolidating all the memories ; sensations and perceptions of the experience in order for healing to begin mentally. See, during my sleep, I felt the real pain of the procedure ... it was a recorded memory. Because in sleep we have a REM state; we go through what is a very active brain activity during sleep. This is the point we may dream. But, it’s actually memory consolidation. I felt it as a flitted in and out of sleep. 
The good news is after waking, all pain disappeared. I had slept for 5 hours. Giving my brain a good relaxation to have approximately 5 REM sessions, enough to relieve the actually pain itself.
So, the wonders of cognitive function in our lives is amazing. It’s said everything is in the mind, that’s not wrong. 
This story is aimed at sharing/helping people who have similar experiences . Those with deeper levels of mental issues are recommended to visit professionals.

Living a happier life

ESP is a under researched psychological science, even though there is evidence that some people have these extra sensory perceptions, many do not understand . ESP works within Energy psychology . Faith is an important factor within ESP and also positive psychology that enhances gifts within an individual. Spirituality is a recognized trait within humans : that when harnessed may be lead to increased real happiness plus many other traits. For example, some of which include gratitude, kindness & love. These traits are called character strengths. Heredity is a factor which has been connected to certain optimistic traits. Fortunate are those who are innately optimistic. It is possible to learn how to become authentically happier & live a life of meaning by practicing signature-strengths that is traits which we are endowed with; by applying them daily : such as showing love, kindness, gratitude, fortitude and curiosity. With curiosity one may learn easier hence increasing knowledge. Results of research over many years have shown this correlation in empirical studies. Therefore, a human may choose how life can be more meaningful when they make better choices and practice for their lives.~ lorrainenur@2017

Building a non-profit organisation

The intention of creating a non-profit organisation is mainly for helping the locals or people on a global scale, to create awareness of certain situations, give and share information, creating awareness when necessary, about many issues from all levels; for example political and social arenas. This gives members a platform for discussing, evaluation and learning.The necessity for more non-profit organisations is needed in a world where many news-feeds may be ambiguous or false. The aim is to establish truth and cohesion amongst like-minded members.
The global issues we face today, hinder the intention of humanity to become cohesive as one race. On many levels, we find tolerance is lacking. The stresses of environment and lifestyle creates disharmony. Communications break down. Perceptions vary and misunderstandings occur.
On many occasions we have seen NGOs take to the public arena in support,defence or protest of something. News coverage is biased and do not offer full and valid information. It sometimes becomes cumbersome as well, with the use of ever-changing and evolving of technology to keep up with everyone, therefore; creating non-profit organisations may benefit many to stay focused on issues of personal importance, with the end goal of making changes within their environment.
Non-profit organisations' financials come from donations. There may be room for further thought into micro-economy which generates income for the organisation to function. Members of an organisation may be professionals from fields that may generate income ; whereby a certain percentage of profit goes back to the organisation. The internal network of active non-profit organisations may feel more comfortable using these services rather than that of people they may not recognise or trust. Thus non-profit organisations with true goals may not only help causes but internal members as we.
While, writing assignments on public relations and business communications, I have been made conscious of perhaps how a future business environment may improve when they focus on the strengths and abilities of members and employees which make up the main functional body of any organisation.
Finally, it takes people to make things work. Therefore perhaps in the near future, better organisational structures that are less motivated by wealth but more toward humanity, may have a great positive impact on our civilisation.

Life is short but good



Life is short but it can be good. Place positive structures and choices; be simple; arrange work and activities around relax time, prayer time. Emphasis to self each day about the blessings and focus generally on good things rather than the bad. When we predispose ourselves of this morbid thinking we limit the positive vibes . We create our own environment of placid and peace ❗️we are incharge of ourselves .

Spirit travel in dreams


Recently, I have been having so many vivid dreams that have been happening in a short space of time. Dreams are usually visions and messages for me.They often forewarn or tell of something happening or going to eventualise. Some make up of the dreams aren't  depicted as reality but more picturesque. Their allegorical meanings needs deciphering. Thus, it encourages me to ponder it's meaning. Solely, it is a spirit awareness that emerges because to meditate a vision ,must take time and focus to receive clear messages ; unlike a dowsing where I can actually be sure of the specifics during sessions. In these times we often forget how to connect our soul to the Universal language and the messages from the metaphysical world. I like to think myself as a visitor here and I get "GPRS" direction or "Wifi" connection all the time. I suppose, in today's modern world filled with high tech, it isn't difficult to comprehend my theory of spiritual communication. From a physics tangent we can follow and understand this by using law of energy, waves,  & quantum theory will soon not just be a theory as people scuffle to find the meaning of life. We are all connected to one another by an energy force that is greater than us all put together. If we just tapped into it as it is our fuel to use,we will see and discover what abounds and be surprised. We together are a mighty force on this Earth which is also part of our force. So, dream time isn't a myth , it is a conscious act of being in more than this dimension and "traveling" to other ones to receive news. Almost like a radio sending news over the airwaves. Chanellers are such. If we don't use a tool to expedite our communication, we can often miss messages. If we don't use tools before we receive messages , we will get a buzzing sound in the ears and not long later we will dream. And not long after that , it will happen. I have been dreaming since a child. In young adulthood I didn't take my dreams seriously; but since having a space of time practising dowsing; I now know from intuition that a dream carries a message. Intuition because during dowsing; we go through what l like to term" boot camp" training by spirit guides in order to know true and false messages; and the identity of the ones bringing us messages. And the real truth or fact of this unseen message will manifest itself in the real world by a script we read, news we see or someone else may mention as a form of verification. Someone with faith in God must trust that He may choose whoever for a particular life task. I have faith in the One God and within Islam as my chosen religion I have guidelines which allow me to understand this spiritual journey and the task at hand. I didn't choose to have this gift nor did I have to earn it in some mystical way. I was born with it and as I matured I needed to learn more about how to use this gift to help others. Knowledge of anything may be sent when the time is right and by simple research on a topic I learn what is what, by facts.  As a Muslim, we do not use "fortune telling" as a term or art because it is prohibited. If a message comes it is sent by God's will and this is in our Al Qur'an which says God will inform whom He pleases when He pleases. He chooses them. I have certainty in God , in a way that I feel I need His permission for all aspects of my life; knowing He is the Ultimate Power and so by this I believe in my dreams and then I pray about the content and ask for His Merciful Guidance. 
I have only to pray and deliver to who it is meant for and if the receiver wants to accept it or not it is their prerogative. Simply, when one receives a message it is meant to be of help and make one feel looked after .... Hence, hopefully creating awareness of God's Kindness and Mercy and bringing a soul closer to the Lord of the worlds. Everything that I receive cannot contradict what is said in Al Qur'an or go against Islam; if it does then I know the entity is the opposition. With this knowledge I then "fight" them. It isn't imagination but a phenomena that happens in another dimension and my soul is in charge not my body. Much like when people play on their gadgets, Xbox or PlayStation ... They get engrossed in their game as if it's real; so focused they forget where they are or what time it is; and they never feel tired. Such is spirit traveling. In order not to be side tracked ; spirit needs spirit food and spirit time, meaning lots of prayers, enough solitude and silence ; to regenerate. It is a lifestyle ... As the gamester and the addictive games played via gadgets and online. We may live in the present moment but is it the real reality or is there something more to this life than what we actually "see" or are being made to see? 
Let's ponder on this a while, shall we.

Love, peace & light to all

Thinking about births

 
Salam to all.
I was an older mother;after having 3 miscarriages and 1 ectopic pregnancy which I had to end and suffered the loss of my right Fallopian tube at 32 years of age. I had finally then given up all hope of ever having children. I gave it up to God and His Will. 
I became pregnant again at 33. I was nervous and had more pregnancy signs and discomforts than previous pregnancies. After passing the 12th week mark I was still anxious until the 20th week. I could see my baby and started feeling excited. I could start to feel all the movements and the morning sickness lasted the entire pregnancy. I remember having terrible cravings like eating pickles with rice and cheese. Wanting Tim Tams so desperately and could finish five mandarin fruits in one sitting. Reading the entire Al Qur'an in a month during the month of Ramadan as well as eating 2 packets of noodles each time I had a craving for it. This pregnancy lasted 40 weeks. She was late. I didn't dilate past 3cm and had false alarms from week 38 innumerable times. Finally, at 40 weeks on a Monday, with waves of contractions I was admitted into North Gosford Private Hospital.The contractions weren't easing off and I wasn't dilating much. On Wednesday, my child had fetal distress and I had an emergency caesarean. The obstetrician gave me an epidural and started the caesarean ; I could feel them move my insides and was so worried; but he comforted me in his soothing voice and not long after my first born was raised out from me as white and shining as if a light surrounded her. They checked her and all was well. Here was Rahmani. 20 months later ; saw me in the hospital again delivering my second child. This time, because of the previous caesarean , "over baked baby" , we opted to induce him at 38 weeks. It was the first normal birth after a caesarean. I had read up on all the different birthing ways in my first pregnancy. And read up on normal births after a caesarean ; I trusted in the knowledge I had and discussed options with my obgynae. He agreed and observed me well during the second delivery; which he helped by giving me an epidural ( but it was too late as the baby was already in the birth canal) and the pain was so intense. The 18 hours of contractions and an episiotomy with suction to the baby's head as he was crowing , delivered a healthy son, on Friday morning. Exciting enough, after 15 months saw me back at the same hospital to deliver my third child. The most normal of all the births so far and, as I recall the most painless , on time at 38 weeks and easy birth, on my knees , "plopped out" my third child Ruhani on Wednesday. Another 15 months later, I again went into the birthing unit of what was now like a second home, and delivered on Friday my fourth child , Ridhwan. He was induced at 38 weeks as I felt such a pressure I could hardly walk. When he was four months we moved to Indonesia. Everything is different here. Yet after 16 months, I was admitted to Mitra and delivered my fifth child on Friday. 
The point of this story is ; how amazing that all these children 2 girls born on Wednesday and 3 boys born on Friday ( Islamic calendar day begins after asr' ) .... After all when Allah wills He says "Be and it is" ( Kun fa ya Kun).
It never ceases to amaze me and each time I reflect on their lives and births; I see the Power of Allah in our lives. SubhanAllah. Alhamdullilah ala kulli Hal. 
Each child also has special birth months and dates. 

18 Dzulhijjah (April 1998)
27 Ramadan ( January 2000)
10 Muharram (April 2001)
3 Shawwal ( December 2002)
10 Rabi'ul Awal (April 2004) 
5 in 6 years !!!!

Perhaps, my experience may be of benefit to new mums worried about birth and having children.

I am very blessed . I praise Allah SWT for all He allots me. 
*Sallu ala nabiy*
And may the praises of Allah be upon our Holy Prophet Muhammad, his progeny and companions.

Islam means surrender to the will of God.

Assalamu alai kum.
As we read this we are happy in faith, that being said every happiness we experience we would like share it... These wholesome words from Al Qur'an depict the truth of the words given before and now... It never has changed but humankind has... Lest we forget, let us read this with an open heart that we may receive guidance. By His Mercy & Love, by His Gentleness & Power. I have made bold the thoughts to ponder ....

Surah 2, Verse 285:

آمَنَ الرَّسُولُ بِمَا أُنزِلَ إِلَيْهِ مِن رَّبِّهِ وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ كُلٌّ آمَنَ بِاللَّهِ وَمَلَائِكَتِهِ وَكُتُبِهِ وَرُسُلِهِ لَا نُفَرِّقُ بَيْنَ أَحَدٍ مِّن رُّسُلِهِ وَقَالُوا سَمِعْنَا وَأَطَعْنَا غُفْرَانَكَ رَبَّنَا وَإِلَيْكَ الْمَصِيرُ

The Messenger believeth in what hath been revealed to him from his Lord, as do the men of faith. Each one (of them) believeth in Allah, His angels, His books, and His messengers. "We make no distinction (they say) between one and another of His messengers." And they say: "We hear, and we obey: (We seek) Thy forgiveness, our Lord, and to Thee is the end of all journeys."

Surah 2, Verse 286:

لَا يُكَلِّفُ اللَّهُ نَفْسًا إِلَّا وُسْعَهَا لَهَا مَا كَسَبَتْ وَعَلَيْهَا مَا اكْتَسَبَتْ رَبَّنَا لَا تُؤَاخِذْنَا إِن نَّسِينَا أَوْ أَخْطَأْنَا رَبَّنَا وَلَا تَحْمِلْ عَلَيْنَا إِصْرًا كَمَا حَمَلْتَهُ عَلَى الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِنَا رَبَّنَا وَلَا تُحَمِّلْنَا مَا لَا طَاقَةَ لَنَا بِهِ وَاعْفُ عَنَّا وَاغْفِرْ لَنَا وَارْحَمْنَا أَنتَ مَوْلَانَا فَانصُرْنَا عَلَى الْقَوْمِ الْكَافِرِينَ

On no soul doth Allah Place a burden greater than it can bear. It gets every good that it earns, and it suffers every ill that it earns. (Pray:) "Our Lord! Condemn us not if we forget or fall into error; our Lord! Lay not on us a burden Like that which Thou didst lay on those before us; Our Lord! Lay not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Blot out our sins, and grant us forgiveness. Have mercy on us. Thou art our Protector; Help us against those who stand against faith."

AMIIN.



On RIBA / usury and it's consequences

Assalamu alai kum 
Whilst reading Al Qur'an I came across these verses again to remind about the wrong of usury/riba. The financial system created by Zionism has been a part of the Muslims' lives .... We have to change the system to receive barakah from Allah Subhana wa Ta'Ala. 

Surah 2, Verse 275:

الَّذِينَ يَأْكُلُونَ الرِّبَا لَا يَقُومُونَ إِلَّا كَمَا يَقُومُ الَّذِي يَتَخَبَّطُهُ الشَّيْطَانُ مِنَ الْمَسِّ ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ قَالُوا إِنَّمَا الْبَيْعُ مِثْلُ الرِّبَا وَأَحَلَّ اللَّهُ الْبَيْعَ وَحَرَّمَ الرِّبَا فَمَن جَاءَهُ مَوْعِظَةٌ مِّن رَّبِّهِ فَانتَهَىٰ فَلَهُ مَا سَلَفَ وَأَمْرُهُ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَمَنْ عَادَ فَأُولَٰئِكَ أَصْحَابُ النَّارِ هُمْ فِيهَا خَالِدُونَ

Orang-orang yang makan (mengambil) riba tidak dapat berdiri melainkan seperti berdirinya orang yang kemasukan syaitan lantaran (tekanan) penyakit gila. Keadaan mereka yang demikian itu, adalah disebabkan mereka berkata (berpendapat), sesungguhnya jual beli itu sama dengan riba, padahal Allah telah menghalalkan jual beli dan mengharamkan riba. Orang-orang yang telah sampai kepadanya larangan dari Tuhannya, lalu terus berhenti (dari mengambil riba), maka baginya apa yang telah diambilnya dahulu (sebelum datang larangan); dan urusannya (terserah) kepada Allah. Orang yang kembali (mengambil riba), maka orang itu adalah penghuni-penghuni neraka; mereka kekal di dalamnya.

Those who devour usury will not stand except as stand one whom the Evil one by his touch Hath driven to madness. That is because they say: "Trade is like usury," but Allah hath permitted trade and forbidden usury. Those who after receiving direction from their Lord, desist, shall be pardoned for the past; their case is for Allah (to judge); but those who repeat (The offence) are companions of the Fire: They will abide therein (for ever). [2:275]

Surah 2, Verse 276:

يَمْحَقُ اللَّهُ الرِّبَا وَيُرْبِي الصَّدَقَاتِ وَاللَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ كُلَّ كَفَّارٍ أَثِيمٍ

Allah memusnahkan riba dan menyuburkan sedekah. Dan Allah tidak menyukai setiap orang yang tetap dalam kekafiran, dan selalu berbuat dosa.

Allah will deprive usury of all blessing, but will give increase for deeds of charity: For He loveth not creatures ungrateful and wicked. [2:276]

Surah 2, Verse 277:

إِنَّ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ وَأَقَامُوا الصَّلَاةَ وَآتَوُا الزَّكَاةَ لَهُمْ أَجْرُهُمْ عِندَ رَبِّهِمْ وَلَا خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ

Sesungguhnya orang-orang yang beriman, mengerjakan amal saleh, mendirikan shalat dan menunaikan zakat, mereka mendapat pahala di sisi Tuhannya. Tidak ada kekhawatiran terhadap mereka dan tidak (pula) mereka bersedih hati.

Those who believe, and do deeds of righteousness, and establish regular prayers and regular charity, will have their reward with their Lord: on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve. [2:277]
Surah 2, Verse 278:

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَذَرُوا مَا بَقِيَ مِنَ الرِّبَا إِن كُنتُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ

Hai orang-orang yang beriman, bertakwalah kepada Allah dan tinggalkan sisa riba (yang belum dipungut) jika kamu orang-orang yang beriman.

O ye who believe! Fear Allah, and give up what remains of your demand for usury, if ye are indeed believers. [2:278]
Surah 2, Verse 279:

فَإِن لَّمْ تَفْعَلُوا فَأْذَنُوا بِحَرْبٍ مِّنَ اللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ وَإِن تُبْتُمْ فَلَكُمْ رُءُوسُ أَمْوَالِكُمْ لَا تَظْلِمُونَ وَلَا تُظْلَمُونَ

Maka jika kamu tidak mengerjakan (meninggalkan sisa riba), maka ketahuilah, bahwa Allah dan Rasul-Nya akan memerangimu. Dan jika kamu bertaubat (dari pengambilan riba), maka bagimu pokok hartamu; kamu tidak menganiaya dan tidak (pula) dianiaya.

If ye do it not, Take notice of war from Allah and His Messenger: But if ye turn back, ye shall have your capital sums: Deal not unjustly, and ye shall not be dealt with unjustly. [2:279]

Surah 2, Verse 280:

وَإِن كَانَ ذُو عُسْرَةٍ فَنَظِرَةٌ إِلَىٰ مَيْسَرَةٍ وَأَن تَصَدَّقُوا خَيْرٌ لَّكُمْ إِن كُنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ

Dan jika (orang yang berhutang itu) dalam kesukaran, maka berilah tangguh sampai dia berkelapangan. Dan menyedekahkan (sebagian atau semua utang) itu, lebih baik bagimu, jika kamu mengetahui.

If the debtor is in a difficulty, grant him time Till it is easy for him to repay. But if ye remit it by way of charity, that is best for you if ye only knew. [2:280]

Surah 2, Verse 281:

وَاتَّقُوا يَوْمًا تُرْجَعُونَ فِيهِ إِلَى اللَّهِ ثُمَّ تُوَفَّىٰ كُلُّ نَفْسٍ مَّا كَسَبَتْ وَهُمْ لَا يُظْلَمُونَ

Dan peliharalah dirimu dari (azab yang terjadi pada) hari yang pada waktu itu kamu semua dikembalikan kepada Allah. Kemudian masing-masing diri diberi balasan yang sempurna terhadap apa yang telah dikerjakannya, sedang mereka sedikitpun tidak dianiaya (dirugikan).
And fear the Day when ye shall be brought back to Allah. Then shall every soul be paid what it earned, and none shall be dealt with unjustly. [2:281]

THE SOLUTION: 
Surah 2, Verse 282:

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِذَا تَدَايَنتُم بِدَيْنٍ إِلَىٰ أَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى فَاكْتُبُوهُ وَلْيَكْتُب بَّيْنَكُمْ كَاتِبٌ بِالْعَدْلِ وَلَا يَأْبَ كَاتِبٌ أَن يَكْتُبَ كَمَا عَلَّمَهُ اللَّهُ فَلْيَكْتُبْ وَلْيُمْلِلِ الَّذِي عَلَيْهِ الْحَقُّ وَلْيَتَّقِ اللَّهَ رَبَّهُ وَلَا يَبْخَسْ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا فَإِن كَانَ الَّذِي عَلَيْهِ الْحَقُّ سَفِيهًا أَوْ ضَعِيفًا أَوْ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَن يُمِلَّ هُوَ فَلْيُمْلِلْ وَلِيُّهُ بِالْعَدْلِ وَاسْتَشْهِدُوا شَهِيدَيْنِ مِن رِّجَالِكُمْ فَإِن لَّمْ يَكُونَا رَجُلَيْنِ فَرَجُلٌ وَامْرَأَتَانِ مِمَّن تَرْضَوْنَ مِنَ الشُّهَدَاءِ أَن تَضِلَّ إِحْدَاهُمَا فَتُذَكِّرَ إِحْدَاهُمَا الْأُخْرَىٰ وَلَا يَأْبَ الشُّهَدَاءُ إِذَا مَا دُعُوا وَلَا تَسْأَمُوا أَن تَكْتُبُوهُ صَغِيرًا أَوْ كَبِيرًا إِلَىٰ أَجَلِهِ ذَٰلِكُمْ أَقْسَطُ عِندَ اللَّهِ وَأَقْوَمُ لِلشَّهَادَةِ وَأَدْنَىٰ أَلَّا تَرْتَابُوا إِلَّا أَن تَكُونَ تِجَارَةً حَاضِرَةً تُدِيرُونَهَا بَيْنَكُمْ فَلَيْسَ عَلَيْكُمْ جُنَاحٌ أَلَّا تَكْتُبُوهَا وَأَشْهِدُوا إِذَا تَبَايَعْتُمْ وَلَا يُضَارَّ كَاتِبٌ وَلَا شَهِيدٌ وَإِن تَفْعَلُوا فَإِنَّهُ فُسُوقٌ بِكُمْ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَيُعَلِّمُكُمُ اللَّهُ وَاللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمٌ

Hai orang-orang yang beriman, apabila kamu bermu'amalah tidak secara tunai untuk waktu yang ditentukan, hendaklah kamu menuliskannya. Dan hendaklah seorang penulis di antara kamu menuliskannya dengan benar. Dan janganlah penulis enggan menuliskannya sebagaimana Allah mengajarkannya, meka hendaklah ia menulis, dan hendaklah orang yang berhutang itu mengimlakkan (apa yang akan ditulis itu), dan hendaklah ia bertakwa kepada Allah Tuhannya, dan janganlah ia mengurangi sedikitpun daripada hutangnya. Jika yang berhutang itu orang yang lemah akalnya atau lemah (keadaannya) atau dia sendiri tidak mampu mengimlakkan, maka hendaklah walinya mengimlakkan dengan jujur. Dan persaksikanlah dengan dua orang saksi dari orang-orang lelaki (di antaramu). Jika tak ada dua oang lelaki, maka (boleh) seorang lelaki dan dua orang perempuan dari saksi-saksi yang kamu ridhai, supaya jika seorang lupa maka yang seorang mengingatkannya. Janganlah saksi-saksi itu enggan (memberi keterangan) apabila mereka dipanggil; dan janganlah kamu jemu menulis hutang itu, baik kecil maupun besar sampai batas waktu membayarnya. Yang demikian itu, lebih adil di sisi Allah dan lebih menguatkan persaksian dan lebih dekat kepada tidak (menimbulkan) keraguanmu. (Tulislah mu'amalahmu itu), kecuali jika mu'amalah itu perdagangan tunai yang kamu jalankan di antara kamu, maka tidak ada dosa bagi kamu, (jika) kamu tidak menulisnya. Dan persaksikanlah apabila kamu berjual beli; dan janganlah penulis dan saksi saling sulit menyulitkan. Jika kamu lakukan (yang demikian), maka sesungguhnya hal itu adalah suatu kefasikan pada dirimu. Dan bertakwalah kepada Allah; Allah mengajarmu; dan Allah Maha Mengetahui segala sesuatu.

O ye who believe! When ye deal with each other, in transactions involving future obligations in a fixed period of time, reduce them to writing Let a scribe write down faithfully as between the parties: let not the scribe refuse to write: as Allah Has taught him, so let him write. Let him who incurs the liability dictate, but let him fear His Lord Allah, and not diminish aught of what he owes. If they party liable is mentally deficient, or weak, or unable Himself to dictate, Let his guardian dictate faithfully, and get two witnesses, out of your own men, and if there are not two men, then a man and two women, such as ye choose, for witnesses, so that if one of them errs, the other can remind her. The witnesses should not refuse when they are called on (For evidence). Disdain not to reduce to writing (your contract) for a future period, whether it be small or big: it is juster in the sight of Allah, More suitable as evidence, and more convenient to prevent doubts among yourselves but if it be a transaction which ye carry out on the spot among yourselves, there is no blame on you if ye reduce it not to writing. But take witness whenever ye make a commercial contract; and let neither scribe nor witness suffer harm. If ye do (such harm), it would be wickedness in you. So fear Allah; For it is Good that teaches you. And Allah is well acquainted with all things. If ye are on a journey, and cannot find a scribe, a pledge with possession (may serve the purpose). And if one of you deposits a thing on trust with another, let the trustee (faithfully) discharge his trust, and let him Fear his Lord conceal not evidence; for whoever conceals it, - his heart is tainted with sin. And Allah knoweth all that ye do. [2:282]

The New World Order & agenda plus solution

http://youtu.be/MuZ7FxF_aW4.   Watch this link to understand the conspiracy theory. Or what is also known as the New World Order.... But simply they are mischief makers. 

From an Islamic perspective, we can mostly always see a pattern behind many events that happen globally. As Allah SWT is The Most Fair, All Knowing and Seeing, All Hearing; there is nothing that happens just by coincidence but all part of an allowed plan of execution , to test human spirit. 
There is a solution for everything in Islam and most explanations for everything except what Allah SWT keeps secret. The secret , His Light and closeness of Allah SWT being the hidden gem as a treasure for all who seek to discover. The way back is only back to the Creator. So, Allah SWT explains what happens to mischief makers. 

Warnings and examples .... For mischief makers on the earth. And solutions and hope for victims......

Surah 2, Verse 27:

الَّذِينَ يَنقُضُونَ عَهْدَ اللَّهِ مِن بَعْدِ مِيثَاقِهِ وَيَقْطَعُونَ مَا أَمَرَ اللَّهُ بِهِ أَن يُوصَلَ وَيُفْسِدُونَ فِي الْأَرْضِ أُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْخَاسِرُونَ

Those who break Allah's Covenant after it is ratified, and who sunder what Allah Has ordered to be joined, and do mischief on earth: These cause loss (only) to themselves.
Surah 2, Verse 30:

وَإِذْ قَالَ رَبُّكَ لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ إِنِّي جَاعِلٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ خَلِيفَةً قَالُوا أَتَجْعَلُ فِيهَا مَن يُفْسِدُ فِيهَا وَيَسْفِكُ الدِّمَاءَ وَنَحْنُ نُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدِكَ وَنُقَدِّسُ لَكَ قَالَ إِنِّي أَعْلَمُ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ

Behold, thy Lord said to the angels: "I will create a vicegerent on earth." They said: "Wilt Thou place therein one who will make mischief therein and shed blood?- whilst we do celebrate Thy praises and glorify Thy holy (name)?" He said: "I know what ye know not."

Surah 2, Verse 251:

فَهَزَمُوهُم بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ وَقَتَلَ دَاوُودُ جَالُوتَ وَآتَاهُ اللَّهُ الْمُلْكَ وَالْحِكْمَةَ وَعَلَّمَهُ مِمَّا يَشَاءُ وَلَوْلَا دَفْعُ اللَّهِ النَّاسَ بَعْضَهُم بِبَعْضٍ لَّفَسَدَتِ الْأَرْضُ وَلَٰكِنَّ اللَّهَ ذُو فَضْلٍ عَلَى الْعَالَمِينَ

By Allah's will they routed them; and David slew Goliath; and Allah gave him power and wisdom and taught him whatever (else) He willed. And did not Allah Check one set of people by means of another, the earth would indeed be full of mischief: But Allah is full of bounty to all the worlds.
Surah 7, Verse 56:

وَلَا تُفْسِدُوا فِي الْأَرْضِ بَعْدَ إِصْلَاحِهَا وَادْعُوهُ خَوْفًا وَطَمَعًا إِنَّ رَحْمَتَ اللَّهِ قَرِيبٌ مِّنَ الْمُحْسِنِينَ

Do no mischief on the earth, after it hath been set in order, but call on Him with fear and longing (in your hearts): for the Mercy of Allah is (always) near to those who do good.
Surah 8, Verse 73:

وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا بَعْضُهُمْ أَوْلِيَاءُ بَعْضٍ إِلَّا تَفْعَلُوهُ تَكُن فِتْنَةٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَفَسَادٌ كَبِيرٌ

The Unbelievers are protectors, one of another: Unless ye do this, (protect each other), there would be tumult and oppression on earth, and great mischief.
Surah 16, Verse 88:

الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا وَصَدُّوا عَن سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ زِدْنَاهُمْ عَذَابًا فَوْقَ الْعَذَابِ بِمَا كَانُوا يُفْسِدُونَ

Those who reject Allah and hinder (men) from the Path of Allah - for them will We add Penalty to Penalty; for that they used to spread mischief.
Surah 26, Verse 183:

وَلَا تَبْخَسُوا النَّاسَ أَشْيَاءَهُمْ وَلَا تَعْثَوْا فِي الْأَرْضِ مُفْسِدِينَ

"And withhold not things justly due to men, nor do evil in the land, working mischief.
Surah 27, Verse 48:

وَكَانَ فِي الْمَدِينَةِ تِسْعَةُ رَهْطٍ يُفْسِدُونَ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلَا يُصْلِحُونَ

There were in the city nine men of a family, who made mischief in the land, and would not reform.
Surah 27, Verse 49:

قَالُوا تَقَاسَمُوا بِاللَّهِ لَنُبَيِّتَنَّهُ وَأَهْلَهُ ثُمَّ لَنَقُولَنَّ لِوَلِيِّهِ مَا شَهِدْنَا مَهْلِكَ أَهْلِهِ وَإِنَّا لَصَادِقُونَ

They said: "Swear a mutual oath by Allah that we shall make a secret night attack on him and his people, and that we shall then say to his heir (when he seeks vengeance): 'We were not present at the slaughter of his people, and we are positively telling the truth.'"
Surah 27, Verse 50:

وَمَكَرُوا مَكْرًا وَمَكَرْنَا مَكْرًا وَهُمْ لَا يَشْعُرُونَ

They plotted and planned, but We too planned, even while they perceived it not.
Surah 27, Verse 51:

فَانظُرْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ مَكْرِهِمْ أَنَّا دَمَّرْنَاهُمْ وَقَوْمَهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ

Then see what was the end of their plot!- this, that We destroyed them and their people, all (of them).
Surah 28, Verse 4:

إِنَّ فِرْعَوْنَ عَلَا فِي الْأَرْضِ وَجَعَلَ أَهْلَهَا شِيَعًا يَسْتَضْعِفُ طَائِفَةً مِّنْهُمْ يُذَبِّحُ أَبْنَاءَهُمْ وَيَسْتَحْيِي نِسَاءَهُمْ إِنَّهُ كَانَ مِنَ الْمُفْسِدِينَ

Truly Pharaoh elated himself in the land and broke up its people into sections, depressing a small group among them: their sons he slew, but he kept alive their females: for he was indeed a maker of mischief.
Surah 28, Verse 77:

وَابْتَغِ فِيمَا آتَاكَ اللَّهُ الدَّارَ الْآخِرَةَ وَلَا تَنسَ نَصِيبَكَ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَأَحْسِن كَمَا أَحْسَنَ اللَّهُ إِلَيْكَ وَلَا تَبْغِ الْفَسَادَ فِي الْأَرْضِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ الْمُفْسِدِينَ

"But seek, with the (wealth) which Allah has bestowed on thee, the Home of the Hereafter, nor forget thy portion in this world: but do thou good, as Allah has been good to thee, and seek not (occasions for) mischief in the land: for Allah loves not those who do mischief."
Surah 28, Verse 83:

تِلْكَ الدَّارُ الْآخِرَةُ نَجْعَلُهَا لِلَّذِينَ لَا يُرِيدُونَ عُلُوًّا فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلَا فَسَادًا وَالْعَاقِبَةُ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ

That Home of the Hereafter We shall give to those who intend not high-handedness or mischief on earth: and the end is (best) for the righteous.
Surah 29, Verse 30:

قَالَ رَبِّ انصُرْنِي عَلَى الْقَوْمِ الْمُفْسِدِينَ

He said: "O my Lord! help Thou me against people who do mischief!"

Surah 38, Verse 28:

أَمْ نَجْعَلُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ كَالْمُفْسِدِينَ فِي الْأَرْضِ أَمْ نَجْعَلُ الْمُتَّقِينَ كَالْفُجَّارِ

Shall We treat those who believe and work deeds of righteousness, the same as those who do mischief on earth? Shall We treat those who guard against evil, the same as those who turn aside from the right?

The rumours that cause a stirring in hearts.



Assalamualaikum. 
Assalatu wa Salam ala sayyidina Muhammad wa ala alih wa sahbihi wa salim.

Dear brothers & sisters in Islam. 
In our life and world we have but one aim, that is to return to our Lord in a way that He is pleased with us. Al Qur'an is a complete guidance for everything. In our lives we have been forewarned by Allah SWT that the avowed enemy of mankind is one , which is shaitan. We are told never to take him as a friend. In this day and age of fitnah zaman, the age and era where we will see the end of times, we, the last ummah will have to endure many challenges; we have been lied to about many things and there are certain groups or organisations which are always referred to, that have their agendas to destroy mankind and dominate civilisation. We as Muslims need to increase our faith and knowledge, increase our deen and certainty about Islam. We must put our faith in Allah SWT The Most Truthful. In light of recent gossips, scares and fitnah about events that have been planned for these dates 23rd and or 24th of September in this year 2015; I would like to offer a reminder that we must never be gullible and that no one can foretell the future. If in fact there are plans for a major world destruction, event to open portals of other dimensions or start a world war; please go back to Al Qur'an and read the Hadith about what will happen at the end of times. We may or may not live to see these events but if we have children who may have our descendants , then we must educate them properly about Islam and it's teachings so that by being aware, they will have knowledge and increased faith in Allah, His beloved Seal of Prophets (SAAW) and we will be protected. We need to believe in our supplications to Allah SWT and not be deceived by the delegation of all the wali friends of Ad-Dajjal laknatullah. And by doing so, inshallah we shall be saved from the lies and propaganda that floods our networking sites by those who will incite hatred towards Islam and Muslims. This is the blessed month of Dzul-Hijjah, a blessed month indeed.
By my instincts and need to calm hearts , by the permission and mercy of Allah SWT which I seek, I compiled ayahs from surahs based on these calendar dates and hope that by reading them, those who tend to believe in ridiculous rumours will have their hearts anointed with peace and focus on the purpose of our souls' journey. Inshallah, it will thwart the rebels and enemies to have their way, to detract attention away from The One , Allah Ya Hayyu Ya Qayyum.
Wassalamualaikum, wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh.
