TIME


Just before he died, Alexander The Great convened his generals and told them his last three wishes, one of them was :when he died and carried in his coffin, his hands should be dangling in the air, outside of the coffin, and in view of all.
When asked by one of his generals, his answer was : "I want my hands to be swaying in the wind, so that people can see that just as we came here with empty hands, we leave too with empty hands, when we are ending the most valuable treasure, which is our TIME."

Allah says in the Quran :"By (the Token of) Time (through the ages), Verily Man is in loss, Except such as have Faith, and do righteous deeds, and (join together) in the mutual teaching of Truth, and of Patience and Constancy." [Qur'an (103:1-3)]

So, Islam encourages Muslims to care for time, to utilize it wisely and not to waste it and to benefit from it. Besides, it holds them responsible for their time.

We have to realiaze that
~ time is the measure of life, time is an amaanah (trust), time is a gift from the Creator and its proper use will determine our outcome for eternity.
~ we are born in time, live in time and die in time; time is the ambit within which we operate. What we do with time is what we do with our lives.
~ each one must realize that every moment that passes by is an opportunity gone, used or abused; never to return. Soon time will be up and we'll have to leave this physical world and give account for our lives.
~ the more we remind ourselves of the responsibility of the present the better we get at living the moment and the better we live the present moment the better the consequence for the future.

In addition:
~ time passes quickly.
~ time that passes can never return, nor can it be compensated for, for time is irretrievable.
~ time is the most precious thing that man possesses.

Al-Hassan Al-Basri said: “The world is three days: Yesterday, with all that was in it, has gone. Tomorrow, you may never see it. As for today, it is yours, so work on it.”

TIME IS LIFE, and LIFE is what is lent to us by Allah.
Therefore, in line with the above Qur'anic injunction (Quran 103, 1-3), we have to discipline ourselves by giving value to the importance of time. We must be prompt in doing good deeds and worshiping of God which will increase our faith and subsequently enable us to gain Allah's pleasure and mercy.

“For every sin but the killing of Time there is forgiveness. “
~Traditional (Essential Sufism)

“Lost time is never found again.”
~ Benjamin Franklin

IN TERMS OF TIME-SHARING, we have to treasure every moment that we have! And treasure it more because we share it with someone special, special enough to spend our time , meaning our LIFE with ... and remember that time waits for no one. . .

"Who among you who are still poor??" ....

Having hesitated, several students raised their hands. Their action was followed by several others.

"Then, who feel rich?". Only two people were held up.

"Experience, another means what??" ... The students just smiled. I know why they do not raise the hands confused or embarrassed.

"Okeyyy .. now to the feel poor .. I want to ask ... Since you claim to be poor, and because I'm rich,if I give you each of u 10 billion dollars, would you accept? ", I asked.

"Just real or if, sir?", One student raised a question

"Obviously if it's real ..", I replied.

While I am hesitant serious or playful, they nodded smile.

"Eittt ... no such a free lunch ... there is no free lunch ... i give u money 10 billion but there are requirements", I said.

"What, sir?", They asked ...

"I'll give you but i would like your little finger ... do u WANT? ..", I said.

they said No together..

"Hmmm ... its mean your little finger price is more than 10 billion .... Okeyyy .. how about 50 billion ... want??? ", ask me again.

They still shook his head.

"100 billion???" ... Ask me again.

They still shook his head.

so the cost of your little finger is MORE THAN 100 billion right??? What about all body parts?? ... So who said you're poor??? .. ", I said to them provocatively which voice rising.

For a few moments of class ... their faces stunned silence.

When the phrase "Who says you're poor??!!" This post as my facebook status, a FB friend replied: ... "God! ... ". Right

All praise are belongs to Allah who has gives us body perfectly.............. alhamdulillah, so u are rich........

Why Pork is Haram in Islam

 ~ 15 Things You Should Know About Pigs:

1) A pig is a real garbage gut. It will eat anything including urine, excrement, dirt, decaying animal flesh, maggots, or decaying vegetables. They will even eat the cancerous growths off other pigs or animals.

2) The meat and fat of a pig absorbs toxins like a sponge. Their meat can be 30 times more toxic than beef or venison.

3) When eating beef or venison, it takes 8 to 9 hours to digest the meat so what little toxins are in the meat are slowly put into our system and can be filtered by the liver. But when pork is eaten, it takes only 4 hours to digest the meat. We thus get a much higher level of toxins within a shorter time.

4) Unlike other mammals, a pig does not sweat or perspire. Perspiration is a means by which toxins are removed from the body. Since a pig does not sweat, the toxins remain within its body and in the meat.

5) Pigs and swine are so poisonous that you can hardly kill them with strychnine or other poisons.

6) Farmers will often pen up pigs within a rattlesnake nest because the pigs will eat the snakes, and if bitten they will not be harmed by the venom.

7) When a pig is butchered, worms and insects take to its flesh sooner and faster than to other animal's flesh. In a few days the swine flesh is full of worms.

8) Swine and pigs have over a dozen parasites within them, such as tapeworms, flukes, worms, and trichinae. There is no safe temperature at which pork can be cooked to ensure that all these parasites, their cysts, and eggs will be killed.

9) Pig meat has twice as much fat as beef. A 3 oz T bone steak contains 8.5 grams of fat; a 3 oz pork chop contains 18 grams of fat. A 3 oz beef rib has 11.1 grams of fat; a 3 oz pork spare rib has 23.2 grams of fat.

10) Cows have a complex digestive system, having four stomachs. It thus takes over 24 hours to digest their vegetarian diet causing its food to be purified of toxins. In contrast, the swine's one stomach takes only about 4 hours to digest its foul diet, turning its toxic food into flesh.

11) The swine carries about 30 diseases which can be easily passed to humans. This is why God commanded that we are not even to touch their carcase (Leviticus 11:8).

12) The trichinae worm of the swine is microscopically­ small, and once ingested can lodge itself in our intestines, muscles, spinal cord or the brain. This results in the disease trichinosis. The symptoms are sometimes lacking, but when present they are mistaken for other diseases, such as typhoid, arthritis, rheumatism, gastritis, MS, meningitis, gall bladder trouble, or acute alcoholism.

13) The pig is so poisonous and filthy, that nature had to prepare him a sewer line or canal running down each leg with an outlet in the bottom of the foot. Out of this hole oozes pus and filth his body cannot pass into its system fast enough. Some of this pus gets into the meat of the pig.

14) According to Jewish law, pork is one of a number of foods forbidden from consumption by Jews. These foods are known as "non-kosher" foods. In order for a meat to be kosher, it must first come from a kosher animal. A kosher animal must be a ruminant and have split hooves - therefore cows, sheep, goats and deer are all kosher, whereas camels and pigs (having each only one sign of kashrut) are not kosher.

15) Quran, Holy book of Muslims also prohibits consumption of pork.

"He has made unlawful for you that which dies of itself and blood and the flesh of swine and that on which the name of any other than Allah has been invoked. But he who is driven by necessity, being neither disobedient nor exceeding the limit, then surely, Allah is Most Forgiving, Merciful." Quran 2:173

I cannot understand why anyone would eat it. You might as well vacuum all day and then take the vacuum bag and make a nice soup out of it.

" Of course our Creator has given us the health laws through the Holy Quran and not eating pigs is even CLEARLY mentioned in the Bible (Leviticus 11:07)

But some humans think they are more intelligent than the Creator so they choose to follow their own desires and live a very painful and troublesome filled life

Why are there more women in hell than men?

♥ Praise be to Allaah ♥
It was narrated from the Prophet(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) that women will form the majority of the people of Hell. It was narrated from ‘Imraan ibn Husayn that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “I looked into Paradise and I saw that the majority of its people were the poor. And I looked into Hell and I saw that the majority of its people are women.”
(Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 3241; Muslim, 2737)
With regard to the reason for that, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) was asked about it and he explained the reason.
It was narrated that ‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Abbaas said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “I was shown Hell and I have never seen anything more terrifying than it. And I saw that the majority of its people are women.” They said, “Why, O Messenger of Allaah?” He said, “Because of their ingratitude (kufr).” It was said, “Are they ungrateful to Allaah?” He said, “They are ungrateful to their companions (husbands) and ungrateful for good treatment. If you are kind to one of them for a lifetime then she sees one (undesirable) thing in you, she will say,‘I have never had anything good from you.’” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 1052)

It was narrated that Abu Sa’eed al-Khudri said:
“The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaahbe upon him) went out to the Musalla on the day of Eid al-Adha or Eid al-Fitr. He passed by the women and said, ‘O women! Give charity, for I have seen that you form the majority of the people of Hell.’ They asked, ‘Why is that, O Messenger of Allaah?’ He replied, ‘You curse frequently and are ungrateful to your husbands. I have not seen anyone more deficient in intelligence and religious commitment than you. A cautious sensible man could be led astray by some of you.’ The women asked, ‘O Messenger of Allaah, what is deficient in our intelligence and religious commitment?’ He said, ‘Is not the testimony of two women equal to the testimony of one man?’ They said, ‘Yes.’ He said, ‘This is the deficiencyin her intelligence. Is it not true that a woman can neither pray nor fast during her menses?’ The women said, ‘Yes.’ He said, ‘This is the deficiency in her religiouscommitment.’”
(Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 304)

It was narrated that Jaabir ibn ‘Abd-Allaah said: “I attended Eid prayers with the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). He started with the prayer before the khutbah, with no adhaan or iqaamah. Then he stood up, leaning on Bilaal, speaking offear of Allaah (taqwa) and urging us to obey Him. He preached to the people and reminded them. Then he went over to the women and preached to them and reminded them. Then he said, ‘Give in charity, for you are the majority of the fuel of Hell. A woman with dark cheeks stood up in the midst of the women and said, ‘Why is that, O Messenger of Allaah?’ He said, ‘Because you complain too much and are ungrateful to your husbands.’ Then they started to give their jewellery in charity, throwing their earrings and rings into Bilaal’s cloak.”
(Narrated by Muslim, 885)

Our believing sisters who learn of this hadeeth should behave like those Sahaabiyaat who, when they learned ofthis, did good deeds which would be the means, by Allaah’s leave, of keeping them far away from being included in that majority of the inhabitants of Hell.
So our advice to the sisters is to strive to adhere to the rituals and obligatory duties of Islam, especially prayer,and to keep away from that which Allaah has forbidden,especially shirk in its many forms which are widespread among women, such as seeking one's needs from someone other than Allaah, going to practitioners of witchcraft and fortune-tellers , etc.
♥ We ask Allaah to keep us and all our brothers and sisters far away from the Fire and the words and deeds that bring one close to it.

Aameen!

STUDY BY LITTLE FROG

There is a separate anxiety that is felt a young frog when the sky is suddenly darkened.
"Mom, what we are going to perish. Why is the sky suddenly darkened? "Said the little frog while embracing its mother's arm tightly.
The mother welcoming embrace it with a gentle caress. "My son," said the mother then. "That's not a sign of our destruction.
Instead, it's a good sign. "Said parent frog as he continued stroking. And the little frog began to calm.

However, peace did not last long. Suddenly the wind blew hard. Dried leaves and stalks strewn began flying.
Trees twisted wind mocked. Again, a scary sight for the little frog. "Mother, what is it again? What were we waiting for? "Asked the little frog while hiding behind its mother's body.

"My son. It's just the wind, "said the mother was affected state. "It was also a sign that we are waiting for sure come!" And little frog began to calm. He began to enjoy strong wind that seemed scary
"Blarrr!" Sound of lightning darting. A flash of white light makes the atmosphere became increasingly so scary. This time, the little frog can no longer say anything. He isnt only embraced and hid behind its mother's body. But also shaking. "Buuu, I'm so scared. So scared! "
he said as he continued to sleep.

"Patience, my son!" She said , "It was just lightning. It was a sign that we were waiting for a third signs. Get out! Looked at the signs that looked scary. Be thankful, because the rain would come, soon..., "said the mother frog so quiet.

little frog starts to go out from under its mother's body. He tried
looked up at the black sky, the wind twisted branches, and lightning strikes were so dazzling. Suddenly, he shouted loudly, "Mommy, the rain came. The rain came! thats Great! "wow wow wow

REFLECTION:

Gift of life can appear through a route that is not desirable. He did not come accompanied with melodious flute puffs. Not delivered by the beautiful ladies. Not refreshed with aromatic fragrances.

At that moment, not a few people who finally played by circumstances.
Just like a child of frog who is afraid just because the black sky, the wind blew hard, and the blinding flashes of lightning. In fact, this is exactly the signs of rain.

thats True what parent of little frog say: do not be afraid to step, dont hide from reality, patience and faced it. Because rain must be waited,it will come exactly. Together hardship there is ease.
