A Sheet for the Prophet

Narrated Abu Hazim: I heard Sahl bin Saad saying,
"A woman brought a Burda (i.e. a square piece of cloth having edging). I asked, 'Do you know what a Burda is?' They replied in the affirmative and said, "It is a cloth sheet with woven margins." Sahl went on, "She addressed the Prophet and said, 'I have woven it with my hands for you to wear.' The Prophet took it as he was in need of it, and came to us wearing it as a waist sheet. One of us said, 'O Allah's Apostle! Give it to me to wear.' The Prophet agreed to give it to him. The Prophet sat with the people for a while and then returned (home), wrapped that waist sheet and sent it to him. The people said to that man, 'You haven't done well by asking him for it when you know that he never turns down anybody's request.' The man replied, 'By Allah, I have not asked him for it except to use it as my shroud when I die." Sahl added; "Later it (i.e. that sheet) was his shroud."

The person wanted to have the sheet for his shroud because he hoped that Allah will show mercy towards him after death as he is covered in a sheet that was worn by the Prophet. We can also hope for the same by dressing ourselves with the lifestyle of the Prophet (peace be upon him) as his simple lifestyle is the most beloved to Allah.

( Love for Muhammad PBUH is the basic teaching of Islam.)... Islam is not terrorism nor backwordness, but Islam is relegion and teachings of peace. "Ashadunna La illaha illallahu Wa Ashadunna Muhammadan Wa Rasuluhu." "I bear witness that there is no god, but Allah, and Muhammad is His Last Messenger."

Tragic Death of Two Brothers

Here is a true incident of two Muslim brothers who died in an accident. The incident took place in 2001 in Toronto, Canada. One of the brothers who died was our neighbour. His name was Samanthar. He was a teenager and had great dreams for the future. We would visit him sometimes to talk about the purpose of life. Due to the pressure from friends, he would always say "Insha-Allah" and hope to start doing things in the near future. Then one day, it all came to an end. Brother Samanthar along with another brother was driving a car at night around 9:00 p.m. At one place, they stopped the car as the traffic light turned red. Far behind them was a police car that was chasing a stolen van. The van came really fast and hit Samanthar's car from the back. Instantly, the two brothers passed away. May Allah forgive them and cover them with His mercy.

Everyone, mainly the youth, should take a lesson from this incident that death is unpredictable. No one should delay practising Islam for a later time as that time may never come. Let's make a strong commitment to start today. May Allah make it easy.

ابو ہریرہ (رضي اللہ تعالی عنہ) سے روایت ہے کے نبی (صلی اللہ علیہ واله وسلم) نے فرمایا.. قیامت قائم نہیں ہو گی جب تک کے دو گروہوں کے درمیان جنگ ہو گی اور شدید جانی نقصان ہو گا، جب کہ دونوں کا دعویٰ (یا دین) ایک ہی ہو گا. اور قیامت قائم نہیں ہو گی جب تک کے تیس(٣٠) جھوٹے سامنے نہ آ جائیں گے اور ان میں سے ہر کوئی نبی ہونے کا دعویٰ کرے گا.

[ بخاری، کتاب:4 ، جلد:56 ، حدیث:806 ]

Narrated Abu Huraira(Razi Allah Ta'ala Anhu) that Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wa'alehi Wasallam) said, "The Hour will not be established till there is a war between two groups among whom there will be a great number of casualties, though the claims (or religion) of both of them will be one and the same. And the Hour will not be established till there appear about thirty liars, all of whom will be claiming to be the messengers of Allah.

{Al'Munafiqon #11}

اور جب کسی کی موت آجاتی ہے تو الله اس کو ہرگز مہلت نہیں دیتا اور جو کچھ تم کرتے ہو الله اس سے خبردار ہے
And ALLAH deferreth not a soul when its term- hath come; and ALLAH is Aware of that which you do.
