Description
Alhamdolillah, I am proud to be muslim. Lets start doing something for Islam. This can be done by following Quran and Sunnah. And also inviting others to follow Islam.
Following are the pillars of Islam... Tauheed - Believe in the oneness of Allah
Salaat - Daily 5 times prayers
Sawm - Fasting the holy month of Ramadhan
Zakat - Compulsory charity in a year
Hajj - Pilgrimage to Makkah once in the lifetime
Lets analyze ourselves in the light of the pillars of Islam. And if there is any laziness, try the best to remove that. Allah may help us in following our religion and getting success in both this and the next world. Ameen.
They call my people
blood thirsty terrorists
blowing up buildings and planes
with dynamite tied to their chests
killing civilians by the hundreds
-but am I a terrorist?
True, some of my people
of names similar to mine
do act violently in despair
when their human rights are stolen
when their suffering and plights are ignored
in the refugee camps of Sabra and Chatila.
- but am I a terrorist?
They are not living their faith
just acting on emotions and hate
full with the revenge for the oppressor
with little regard for innocent lives
they are just Muslim in name
-but am I a terrorist?
Islam, the religion of peace
teaches Muslims to respect life
"If anyone had killed one man
except in lieu of murder and mischief
it is as if he killed the whole mankind"
Same verse in Torah and Qur'an too
by the same God... Our Almighty Allah
-how could I be a terrorist?
Prophet Mohammad, Peace be upon him
was a mercy to mankind
he cared for the poor, elderly and sick
even if not from his faith
he stood in respect for a funeral procession of a Jew
he let a cat take a nap on his robe
not to disturb her, he cut his robe
He told Muslim armies not to hurt women and kids
sick and old, cut trees or kill animals just for fun
I love him so much
-how could I be a terrorist?
But why do they call us terrorists?
why not call the IRA, Red Army, Tamil Tigers
Militant Hindus or Serbians terrorists.
Why not call the militia
blowing up government buildings
and killing innocent civilians a terrorist
No, the term is reserved for Muslims
- and I am a Muslim.
We are the victims of terrorism
in Palestine, Bosnia and Kosova...
by individuals and states
with knives, guns, tanks and rape
-who is a terrorist?
I remember Serb soldiers came to my house
they killed my father and my big brother too
I miss them so much.
They raped my mom and my sister too.
I loved them so much.
Then they burned my house, my books and toys too
- and they call us terrorists.
I got scared, and fled into the woods
joined a caravan going to the border
migrating from oppression to a land of peace and freedom
I have walked two days and climbed a mountain
I am hungry and thirsty, tired and sick
My legs are weak and my feet are bleeding
unable to walk anymore
- do I look like a terrorist?
I am not a terrorist
I am a Muslim
seeking love, peace and justice
Ya Allah, please help me and my people.

"Rajab is the name of a river in heaven, which is whiter than milk and sweeter than honey. Whoever fasts in Rajab shall be able to drink from that river".
Istighfar. The Holy Prophet (saww) has said, "Rajab is the month for seeking forgiveness, so seek forgiveness from Allah (swt)".
Sadaqah. Giving `Sadaqah' (charity/alms) is also highly recommended
prepare 4 ramadan ..........................
