Two Questions With Two Simple Answers!

Sheikh replied: Our women are queens and queens do not shake hands with strange men.
Then the British man asked the Sheikh: Why do your girls cover up their body and hair?The Sheikh smiled and got two sweets, he opened the first one and kept the other one closed. He threw them both on the dusty floor and asked the British: If I ask you to take one of the sweets which one will you choose?The British replied: The covered one.The Sheikh said: That's how we treat and see our woman.

Manners - TARBIYAH - تربية
"Brother Maythem, I really like talking to you and having your opinion as you always say them straight away and most of the time you could convince me about your decision/opinion because you bring an evidence from Qur'an or Hadeeth. and I like they way you deliver it. So, Why don't you have your own Halaqah or Maybe sharing sessions with other people so they get some of your knowledge?" and then he suggested to me "Why don't you try to get a certificate for being Ustaz?! so that will ease your way to approach people in Malaysia to deliver your knowledge."
Ok, honestly I felt flattered and got shocked at same time because, for me, I thought we were discussing some general topics about life, and honestly I was not thinking that I was delivering a speech or a lesson as in class, Even though some times I bring evidences from Qur'an and Hadeeth. So I thanked Ustaz X for admiring me and told him what I thought then I added:
"Actually, I do not think of myself as an Ustaz as I do not have the deep knowledge about the Islamic science. Another thing, I do not memorize the whole Qur'an nor Hadeeth in my mind. I just remember their principles that I have learnt during my life."
Then he replied:
"The last sentence you just said, this is exactly what any man needs to become a successful Ustaz. As long as you know the Principe behind the Qur'an and Hadeeth and you can use them to make decision, then you can be a successful Ustaz. and do you know, that is exactly what a lot of Ustaz and Ustazah (a woman with Islamic Education) missing although they are very famous."
Then he gave me some examples of what we have discussed before and showed to me the difference between my opinion and a famous Ustaz (called as Ulamaa' or Scientist in Islam) and that he believes in my opinion not in that Ulamaa' Opinion (as he feels it is a wrong opinion).
At the end, we decided that we might do, together, some kind of Halaqah or Discussion Area online. But I kept thinking with myself about what he said about me...then I do believe that during my life and since my childhood, I have gained TARBIYAH from many different sources; especially my parents, teachers, friends, life experiences, summer-army-school (most of Iraqis were pushed to go and participate in), self reading and self thinking,...etc. each of them have given me some manners and abilities to think logically and to deliver information honestly. In addition to that, my mother tongue language is Arabic, and that might be a reason that I could understand the Islamic teachings easier than those Ustaz and Ustazah (Ustaz X told me about before).
In the near future, On my Blog, I will put some of the problems those Ustaz X and me have discussed before, and I hope to receive opinions from friends IN SHA' ALLAH.
Anyway, as a conclusion, We have to teach our children correct Manners, give them proper knowledge, share Experiences with them and teach them to practice thinking through what they have learnt.. as forcing or encouraging our children to follow procedures without understanding the purpose of doing them or to memorize texts without understanding their contexts is just useless for their thinking side.

How to give money to poor people?!
لا تعطِ الفقير صدقة و أنت تشعر أنه محتاج لصدقتك
اعطها له و أنت تعلم أنك المحتاج للمغفرة والقبول من الله
اللهم تقبل صدقاتنا .. آمين
Do not give Money to poor people because you think they need your money!!. But give them money because you know that you are the one who needs the forgiveness from Allah and you are the one who need the acceptance of Allah to you.i
لا تعط الفقير ما لاتحب أو رخيص مالديك.. مالاً كان أم غَرَض.. بل أعطي مما تحب و ما تشتهي نفسك.
Do not give poor people from the things you dislike or the cheapest of what you have (Money or Stuff)... But give them from what you love and what you desire to have.
Ya Allah, Please accept our SADAQAT and INFAQ...Ammeen

Each time I read Quran, I discover more how great the Islam is.
.
"وَاقْتُلُوهُمْ حَيْثُ ثَقِفْتُمُوهُمْ وَأَخْرِجُوهُم مِّنْ حَيْثُ أَخْرَجُوكُمْ وَالْفِتْنَةُ أَشَدُّ مِنَ الْقَتْلِ وَلاَ تُقَاتِلُوهُمْ عِندَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ حَتَّى يُقَاتِلُوكُمْ فِيهِ فَإِن قَاتَلُوكُمْ فَاقْتُلُوهُمْ كَذَلِكَ جَزَاء الْكَافِرِينَ"
.
While hiding the verse Number 190, which says:
.
"وَقَاتِلُواْ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ الَّذِينَ يُقَاتِلُونَكُمْ وَلاَ تَعْتَدُواْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لاَ يُحِبُّ الْمُعْتَدِينَ".

Two Prayers or Heaven?!

سألوا الإمام الحسن البصرى
Some people asked ِAl-Hasan Ibn Al-Haythem;
ان خيروك بين :: أمرين :: صلاة ركعتين و دخول الجنة
If you have been given the chance to choose among "Doing two Ruk'at of Salat (Two Prayers)" or "Entering the Heaven",
فأيهما تختار اولا فقال :
Which of them you are going to choose?
سأختار الركعتين اولا
So he answered: I would choose doing Two Ruk'at,
لان فى أدائهما رضاء لربى
Because by doing them, I would satisfy Allah
وفى دخول الجنة رضاء لنفسى
While if I choose Heaven, then I am satisfying myself,
وأولى بالعبد المؤدب ان يفضل رضاء ربه على رضاء نفسه
and the good and polite Mo'min (Believer) would put Allah's satisfaction before his own!!

1 ♦ لا تجادل الأحمق , فقد يخطئ الناس في التفريق بينكما
2 ♦ المهزوم إذا ابتسم , افقد المنتصر لذة الفوز
3 ♦ لا تتحدى إنساناً ليس لديه ما يخسره
4 ♦ يظل الرجل طفلاً , حتى تموت أمه , فإذا ماتت ، شاخ فجأة
5 ♦ إذا طعنت من الخلف , فاعلم أنك في المقدمة
6 ♦ كن صديقاً , ولا تطمع أن يكون لك صديق
7♦ عندما تحب عدوك , يحس بتفاهته
8♦ كلنا كالقمر .. له جانب مظلم
9♦ لا تطعن في ذوق زوجتك , فقد اختارتك أولا
10♦ نحن نحب الماضي لأنه ذهب . ولو عاد لكرهناه

Livelihood الرزق
قال علي بن أبي طالب رضي الله عنه:
Ali Bin Abi Talib (R.A.A) said:
الرزق نوعان:
The Livelihood (Riziq) has two types:
و أما الذي تطلبه فلن يأتيك إلا بسعيك .. و هو أيضا من رزقك.
فالأول فضل الله .. و الثاني عدل من الله
Livelihood asking for you... and livelihood you look for it, The First type comes to you even if you are doing nothing, While the second will not come to you unless you work toward it.. both are your livelihood but the first is kindness of Allah.. While the second is the just of Allah.

سبحانك ربي ما أعدلك
Subhan Allah how just he is.

قصة الملك المتعجرف و الوزير الحكيم
قصة الملك المتعجرف و الوزير الحكيم
The Story of the arrogant king and the wise minister

يقال ان ملك امر بتجويع 10 كلاب لكي يضع معها كل وزير يخطئ في السجن
It's been told that there was an arrogant king who has 10 dogs. Someday, the king wanted to issue a new rule stating that any minister who does mistakes, will be thrown to the dogs. And the king let the 10 dogs very very hungry so they become ready to eat any minister at any time.
... فقام احد الوزراء باعطاء راي خاطئ
فامر برميه للكلاب
Someday, a wise minister gave a wrong opinion about something....
So the king ordered the soldiers to throw him to the hungry dogs.
فقال له الوزير انا خدمتك 10 سنوات وتعمل بي هكذا
امهلني 10 أيام
The wise minister said begging the king: "Please, I have served you 10 years, So how come you do something like this to me! Please postponed throwing me to the dogs 10 days only."
فقال له الملك لك ذلك
The king said to him, "Ok, you got 10 days, 10 days only!"
فذهب الوزير الي حارس الكلاب
فقال له اريد ان اخدم الكلاب فقط لمدة 10 ايام
The minister got happy and went immediately to the dogs cage guard and told him: "I want to serve the dogs 10 days only."
فقال له الحارس وماذا تستفيد قال له الوزير سوف اخبرك بالامرمستقبلا
فقال له الحارس لك ذلك
The Guard felt weird and asked "What will you gain? you are going to die soon?"
The minister answered: "I'll tell you later!"
The guard said: "Ok man, Up to you."
فقام الوزير بالاعتناء بالكلاب واطعامهم وتغسيلهم وتوفير لهم جميع سبل الراحه
For those 10 days, the minister kept taking care of the 10 dogs, feed and wash them and offered all the comfort to them.
وبعد مرور 10 ايام جاء تنفيذ الحكم بالوزير
وزج به في السجن مع الكلاب
والملك ينظر اليه والحاشيه
When the 10'th day was done, The king came with two guards to the minister and said to him: "Now is the show time... Now I can see how you will be eaten by my dogs!"
Then threw the minster into the cage of the hungry dogs.
فاستغرب الملك مما رآه
وهو ان الكلاب جائعة وتناظر تحت قدميه
While they were watching, The king and his family and soldiers got shock of what they saw!!
The Dogs are very hungry but they are standing and sitting beside the minister without hurting him!!
فقال له الملك ماذا فعلت للكلاب
"What have you done to the dogs?" the king asked,
قال له الوزير
خدمت هذه الكلاب 10 ايام فلم تنسى الكلاب هذه الخدمه
وأنت خدمتك 10 سنوات فنسيت كل ذلك
The wise minister answered the king back: "I have served these dogs or 10 days only and they never forgot that, While I have served you for 10 years and you forgot all of what I have done for you"
طأ طأ الملك رأسه
وأمر بالإعفاء عنه
The king felt his mistake and ordered to release the wise minister and cancel the stupid rule.
Wisdom Learnt
Always be good with people and animals and Never forget the goodness of others to you.
