Eco-friendliness: Our duty.

Our poor Earth begs to see those twinkling stars,

For it could formerly even admire the beauty of planet Mars.

These factories smoking a thousand cigars a day,

The smoke clouding up with a hue of blackish grey.

Not to mention, of course, our folks who breathe

Out those toxins; never enough to seethe.

Tonnes of garbage dumped mercilessly at the great seas,

Even the lakes and oceans are not set free.

So many chemicals polluting the noble waters,

Choking fishes and many plants, even our health greatly falters.

Unhealthy, hybrid foods replace the better nutrition,

To feed the numerous masses, to produce weaker generations.

For the best in both lives, plant a seed today,

That’s also what the Lord and His Messenger (saw) say.

You may never realize—it’s a little forest of your own,

With household garbage and compost, the large plants you have grown.

Let’s unionize our efforts to success via the Way,

How Muhammad (saw) taught us, our world needs it today!

We felt; it's wrong?

Peace be upon you.
We have some write-ups in the making, please pray for us, and that we find time (and mind) to produce great read-worthy articles.

They held the showing of emotion, verily, even the harbouring of sentiment, a negative, a fallacy.

Did they never see the machines they 'made'? Did they ever find in them any genuine feeling? Was their creation not amateurish or was it authentic expertly? Now, were they so far too arrogant to ridicule the creations of the Master, the Creator, the Fashioner of all art?

Did they have no shame left in them? Do we?

Peace be to all those who follow the Guidance.

Freedom Pub. Ltd.

Peace be upon you!
We're sorry to have defied our 'monthly' term. Whoops! But please pray that from now on we are disciplined. We're human, by the way. (Hah!)

They told you modernity granted you freedom. Well, quite generously. But maybe, just maybe, you've heard, "There's a limit to everything." We may not agree in all absolute facets, but in this life, and for us humans, yes.
'But I've got freedom', some may object. 'I can do everything I want to.' Actually, you can't. You can do only what you can. 
That aside, owing to freedom and my downright fascination, may I eat fire? May I? Please..?
Logically, I may not. Because it's detrimental.
And thus, here, for us, there are limits. And we must wisely accept them.

Peace and blessings be to those who follow the Guidance.

Where's the Ω?

Peace be upon you! Welcome back to our monthly blog.
Let's proceed.

The universe is orchestrated with a symphony of balance, every being dancing to the Divine programming. And Justice is just one prominent note in the harmony. If God Himself wasn't the One of Most Justice, Most Truth, Most Mercy, Most Forgiveness, and Most Love, then how in the cosmic possibilities could we mere humans, a race with inherent weakness, have come to discover, or "invent",  as some of us might prefer, them?

So how, in the awesome universal justice, could anyone expect this near constricted world to be the alpha and omega of human existence?

Now, we all know that there were many such heads with seats of power that blew off a million other heads for vested interests, a grudge, some fear, you name it. And they died like the others died. Death is justice?

I'll talk maths. We all started off as the same--a million Xs. Suppose I got power (normal; this isn't physics) of 2 units. And owing to this, I took away 1 unit of your freedom. Like we started, we must also end equal. As x+2 is not equal to x-1, and supposing we both die now, it ends up like x+2=x-1 which isn't true for it's really x+2≠x-1. So this must not be the omega. This is not the end.

For the sake of justice and equality, thank God for the Judgement Day!

Peace be to all those who follow the Guidance.

Falsity

Peace be upon you.
Here, now, with blood flowing like river-water, wounds drying like mud under the sun, we needn't say much to explain the atrocities being inflicted upon our brethren in humanity. Lord, please now save Palestine!

Only a coward bombs the unarmed mass,
To occupy a land that's another's home,
Hailed for their cowardice, injustice in guise,
Israel, turning Palestine into unfelt tombe.

Babies they kill, chivalry profess,
To 'defend', to re-capture their "Promised Land",
And shout out their wounds, their bruises, some scratch,
While a nation they grind beneath their stand.

Our bretheren they kill,
Humanity, slay,
For injustice in our world,
Will we still pay?

Fund those cool brands,
The crowns of all industry,
Or fund genocide or kill--
Identical equality.

When the hailed crown's but stolen,
Robbed from their very host,
We go blind and dissociate,
(Saying)"It's not ours, that post."

Well, why do we smother conscience,
Sugar-coating this gall?
Drop, a drops form an ocean,
Customer's king, after all.

When the better of us royals resign,
And morality, anti-hexastar, support,
The oppressors' economy shall decline,
By God's Will, Justice our purport.

If not for religion, least for virtue,
For humanity, morals, justice, the truth,
Stand, O People, Stand firmly for mankind,
Be kind to man, so beyond may you see the Fruit.

O Allah! Lord of all,
Unite my bretheren against the evil force,
In throngs they force, to uproot Thy Deen,
Yours our will, Justice we propose.

O Allah! If not for Your Aid,
Misguided, useless, senseless is undermine,
O Allah! Piety we beseech,
Our Lord, please NOW save Palestine.

Peace be upon all those who follow the Guidance.

The Month of Guidance

Peace be upon you, who has been following this blog since a long, long time. And to those of you who haven't, too.

The Holy month of the Muslims is up and high, bright and sanctifying. Why are we making this the subject of this month's post? This period has dozens of deeds which can be, and are, the source for scores of great benefit: physical, spiritual, mental, and many more, you name it.

Firstly, fasting in Ramadaan, the fourth pillar of Islam, is observed by the Muslims as a means for attaining god-consciousness and piety, as mentioned in the Quran, 2:183. "O you who have believed, decreed upon you is fasting as it was decreed upon those before you that you may become righteous." Also, as the verse says, this deed was enjoined upon nations of the past, so it stands not as a new idea for the masses of humanity.

Someone made a statement as follows,"If one can control his food, he can control anything." So secondly, it empowers the one who's fasting with self-control.
Hence, it is easier to perform acts of worship with the full presence of mind and total control of will. If one's good enough. And if he's not, well, this is a great time to make or break habits!

Fasting helps the physical human body to gain a lot of boons. The digestive system is given rest, and as with everything, a rested system is more productive. It can be a means of weight control. More health benefits can be found on http://www.allaboutfasting.com/benefits-of-fasting.html. Et cetera, et cetera.

More importantly, an average, sensitive human being recognizes and sympathizes with the condition of the poor, those who haven't the means of looking forward to even breaking their fast, out of no fault of their own. This helps social relations and societal development through brotherhood.

A sort of summary, rather the crust and scan of what Ramadaan is supposed to be and what it must compose of.

Foreheads that kiss the ground, low,
Elevated by spirit, by creed: the glow.
This month of restraint, of superior control,
By the slaves of the Almighty, those incandescent coals.

Eat not, thou, from dawn to dusk,
Be the time an aeon, or the trifling brusk.
For the Pleasure of thy Lord, fast this time,
So you'd feel his hunger, thy brother with no dime.

This deed for Him shall yield you nobility:
Care, character, God-consciousness, piety.
A pillar of your edifice; break, not, it down,
Erect it firmly; may salvation, there, be your crown.

A sinning soul, myself; now I'd conclude,
Not, may we have hallucinations of mere food.
Taqwa, instill into our hearts, O Lord!
And forgive us all sins; our Destiny Thy accord!

Peace be to all those who follow the Guidance.

Thy Account

Greetings to you of peace again!

One of us just got wondering... And, here's the wonder.

If you're a student, (okay, let's say an average, normal student) you'd be worried about your result. When's that? At the end of the respective Academic Year. The confectionery store's book keeper lays down the incomes and outflows at the end of the day. The general store's accountant pens it, let's say, at the end of the week. And the universal (or rather, more accurately, international) corporate world sums and solves its accounts at the end of the business year. 
You see the trend? Everything important is accounted for at the end of its term.

Now, would you count your life important? Whether you do or you don't, it does stand significant. And, just another proof is before you: you'll have to account for your tenure at the end of your life and later, to the One who Created you. Let's not deny this obvious fact and be doomed forever. Remember--The Almighty would certainly not create all this magnificence for sheer play.

May Allah Guide us to all that is good and Paradise. Aameen.

Peace be to all those who follow the Guidance.

P.S. We'd appreciate if you'd be so kind to rate our posts, through the check-boxes at the end of each one. May Allah Reward you. :)
