“Who knew marriage could be so difficult? ” asked Sara: “One day you’re this care-free woman, pretty selfish and self-indulgent. Next you have a roomie – and one that is supposed to share that room with you for the rest of your life!” “We were living on top of each other,” she added, “Everyone has disagreements – big and small – and we’re all supposed to handle them in some way or another.” All married couples experience difficulties . Learning to disagree can be one of the hardest but most rewarding experiences in a marriage. Even more rewarding is resolving these disagreements and keeping unhappiness at bay. Prolonged disagreements could mean there is a chronic problem between spouses, and could ultimately lead to unhappiness. Marriage counselors reveal that this unhappiness is sometimes caused by a void in their expectations of their spouse. “What Could I do to Make You Happy?” If you are going through a rough patch with your spouse, and really feel the need to debunk the pr...

The fifty-four verse chapter, Sheba, was revealed in Makkah.  All chapters revealed in Makkah tend to concentrate on the fundamentals of faith and pay particular attention to belief in the Day of Judgment and the Hereafter. Stories of the Prophets in the Quran The title “Sheba” comes from verses fifteen to twenty-one in which the community of Sheba is punished for their ingratitude. This chapter also deals with the absurd allegations of madness directed at Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Verses 1 – 9 God is All Knowing All praises belong to God .  He is the owner of all that is in the heavens and the earth.  Even in the Hereafter all praises are His.  Yet the disbelievers say that the Day of Judgment will never come to them.  They are wrong.  Not even a speck of dust escapes God’s knowledge and it is all recorded in a book. The Hour is established so that those who believe and do righteous deeds are generously rewarded and those who ...

As human beings, one of the greatest desires in life is the search for inner peace. 3 Verses in the Quran That Inspire My Life Many psychologists argue that the greatest human drive is the search for peace , that whatever humans do, they do so seeking peace and tranquility. Similarly, one of the names of Paradise in the Quran is Dar As-Salam (House of Peace). One of the names of Allah is A s-Salam , the Perfect, the source of all peace. The word Islam itself is related to the word “ salam ” which means peace. Imam Ibn Taymiyyah said that there is a paradise on this earth, which one needs to enter, to enter the paradise of the hereafter. This paradise, he says, is the tranquility and contentment of the heart. Contentment of the heart is a very difficult trait to have. The world around us, and things that happen to us usually make us very troubled individuals. The Road to Inner Peace and Tranquility However, like anything in Islam, the road to tranquility is not a...

Para el musulmán, esta vida es importante como preparación para la próxima vida. Pero eso no quiere decir que no prestemos atención a nuestras necesidades en esta vida y solo  nos centremos en la próxima, sino que buscamos el bien y el bienestar en esta vida pero sin olvidarnos de que al final del día, esta vida es pasajera y la que viene es eterna. Por eso en muchos Duas , incluso en el Corán, el Profeta nos enseña a pedir a Allah lo mejor de esta vida y lo mejor de la próxima. Un Dua del Corán Allah dice en el Corán:  ¡Señor nuestro, dános lo bueno en esta vida y lo bueno en la Última, y líbranos del castigo del Fuego! Corán, 2:201 Ibn Kazir, un famoso exegeta del Coran, menciona que la Sunnah nos anima a hacer este Dua.  Esto está de acuerdo con el Hadiz recogido en Al-Bujari en el cual Anas Ibn Malik narra que el Profeta, que la paz sea con él, solía recitar este versículo del Corán como un Dua.  Un hermoso Dua para pedir a Allah lo mejor de esta vida ...

Le paradis nous fait tous rêver. On désire tous y entrer. Chaque musulman souhaite être préservé de l’enfer et introduit au paradis au jour du Jugement Dernier. Dans cette vidéo, Ismaïl Mounir nous fait découvrir trois actes si simples et faciles, qui sont susceptibles de nous faire accéder au paradis.

This short film “The Other Pair” is directed by Sarah Rozik and illustrates verses in particular related to generosity. Indeed, being generous is a high quality and is essential in our belief. “…And whatever you spend of good – it will be fully repaid to you, and you will not be wronged.” [Surah Al-Baqara 2: 272] “Never will you attain the good [reward] until you spend [in the way of Allah] from that which you love. And whatever you spend – indeed, Allah is aware of it.” [surah Al-Imran 3:92] “…But whatever thing you spend [in His cause] – He will compensate it; and He is the best of providers.” [Surah Saba 34: 39] Generosity is of many aspects in Islam: spending of your wealth and money time spent with others of for others good deeds, even the simplest like removing a piece of garbage from the street kindness towards people and animals sharing your knowledge delivering the message of Islam refrain from doing evil As a matter of a fact, we can all achieve something from t...

It’s true, isn’t it? You can fool a lot of people for a lot of the time. You can even fool yourself for a while. But Allah cannot be fooled. No matter how much we pretend, we cannot deceive the One Who created us. Allah knows every leaf that falls from every tree and He counts every hair on our head. Others may see us as ever so pious, so kind, so caring. “What a good Muslim,” they say. But we know the truth. We know the jealousy that drives us on, or the laziness that prevents us from doing what we know to be right. We know the backbiting and the bad thoughts. Satan Vows to Destroy You... And Allah Responds Allah Almighty knows all this too, and more, and yet He still wishes well for us, still calls us towards Him. In the holy Qur’an, we read: { Say: I seek refuge with the Lord and Cherisher of humankind, the King (or Ruler) of humankind, the God of humankind, from the mischief of the Whisperer (of evil), who withdraws (after his whisper), the same who whispers into th...

I spent many days dreaming of little laughs from freshly powdered babies; babies that would be a perfect blend of my blue eyes and my husband’s wavy, brown hair. That was in 2002 and I was still enamored with being a new bride. I had hopes of starting a big family. I also had dreams of finishing my degree and having a career. But during those first years of settling into my marriage and my life as a new Muslim , I stayed at home, cooked, cleaned, and studied Islam. 5 Life-Changing Lessons I learned From Muslim Friends As a new Muslim , I didn’t hang out at the mosque much. I didn’t understand what real community was about, nor did I feel comfortable there. I was often asked intrusive questions about when I was going to have kids. When I did go, I answered the procreation questions politely and hopefully- when Allah wills. That was if the ambitious sisters who had kid(s), ran households, held down jobs, and/or were getting advanced degrees weren’t asking me, “What do you d...

When a person embraces Islam, or reaffirms their faith, it is a very emotional time. Many people find the experience overwhelming, and react in different ways. Some with silence and composure, as if holding a very treasured item. Others are exhilarated and want to shout it from the rooftops. New Muslims - Tips to Build Self Confidence in Prayer It is not unusual to feel a range of emotions; life can feel like a roller-coaster. Sometimes up, as if you need to learn everything now, and reveal your newfound faith to others; sometimes down, when the momentous occasion feels almost too heavy to carry. Those feelings however, are a microcosm of a lifetime of Islam. Sometimes your level of faith is high , at other times it is lower. The first few days, weeks, or months of your new faith are something like a crash course in life as Muslim. Wonderful opportunities present themselves; you have a new understanding of things that have perplexed or worried you all your life, and the f...
