coast.

committee in Baltimore.
Domestic Issues ["Command the Good and Oppose the evil." The
Qur'an]
-
Jamaat al-Muslimeen opposes police brutality widespread
in America.. Police who kill unarmed people shouldbe removed
from the police force and charged with murder.
-
We deplore the political prosecution and political
imprisonment of Ziyad Yaghi
[
FreeZiyadYaghi.info
]
, Imam Jamil Al-Amin, Tariq
Mehanna, Tarigq El Hassan, Kifah al-Jayyousi, Dr. Ali Timimi
and others, and call for their immediate and unconditional
release.
-
We protest the maltreatment of political detainees held
by the U.S., for example physical assaults on them by
guards, the withholding of their prayer materials, the
withholding of their mail, the posing of obstacles to their
receiving visitors, and much else.
-
We oppose the objectification of women in the U.S., and
deplore their use as sex objects.
-
We deplore the desecration of the planet, whether by U.S.
armed forces (and their allies) using chemical weapons, big
corporations given free reign to dump toxins far and wide,
or by an oblivious public accustomed to living large and
bleeding the rest of the world of resources to sustain its
lifestyle.
-
We call for an immediate, impartial review of the U.S
educational system, and the removal of, or--at the very
least, recognition of--its support for war, Zionism, racism,
and homosexuality.
-
We call for reparations for slaves' Afro descendants, and
deplore the withholding of reparations for 500 years of
suffering--even under a "Black" president--while Jews
receive reparations for five years of suffering.
-
We urge every Muslim to write to prisoners and to their
families, and to help the familiesof the incarcerated. They
should not be forgotten or marginalized. (For addresses of
prisoners, contact
butshikana@gmail.com
.)
-
We condemn the omnipresence and broadspread use of
liquor, gambling, and drugs, for "These are the mother of
all evils" (Hadith of the Holy Prophet, PBUH) which are
destroying communities.
Foreign ["The believers are none other than ONE
Brotherhood/Sisterhood." The Qur'an.]
-
We condemn the genocide against the people of Syria. We
urge the entire Muslim world to oppose Assad. People
fighting Assad deserve the support of the Muslim ummah.
-
We urge all Muslims to oppose Israel, which Muslims do
not consider a legitimate entity.
-
We urge a boycott of all businesses invested in
Israel.
-
We condemn Western interference in Africa, from the U.S.
and NATO in Somalia, the French in Mali, U.S. drone attacks
in Yemen, Western support for the Nigerian army which is
killing civilians.
-
We condemn all drone attacks, whether in Pakistan,
Somalia, Yemen, or elsewhere.
-
We condemn the Ethiopian government's arrest of a large
number of imams.
-
We oppose the introduction of western ways of life to the
Muslim world, with its induction of AIDS into the ummah.
-
We condemn the Bangladesh regime atrocities against
Jamaate Islami and Hefajate Islam.
-
Kashmir is under Indian army occupation. We call on the
Muslim ummah to support the people of Kashmir.
-
Chechnia is under Russian occupation which has wiped out
entire cities. Muslim Ummah should recognize the rights of
Chechens.
-
We condemn Saudi support for the coup in Egypt.
-
We call upon Iran to release its Islamic political
prisoners.
-
We hail Turkey's support for the people of Syria.
-
We urge Muslims to build ties with the Hispanic
community in general, and with the Muslims in Mexico in
particular.
-
We call for an impartial inquiry into the alleged
desecration of monuments in Mali, withthe awareness that the
U.S. and Israel are masters of propaganda.
-
We urge the recognition and honoring of Muslim women
activists, leaders, and scholars across the Muslim world--by
the world community. Such women have done far more than
Malala, and are worthy of having the U.N. name a day after
them
Breaking News
: Syria. Assad Forced to release Muslim Women hostages.
On October 24, Assad was forced to release 61 Muslim women.
It became possible because al-Nusra mujahideen captured 9
Hizbullah fighters who had joined Assad's forces attacking
Aleppo. Assad's Alawite gangsters have been locking up
Muslim women who wear hijab and are thus suspected by Assad
of siding with the mujahideen. These are random arrests and
the women would have stayed indefinitely in prison if the
Hizbullah fighters had not been captured. These Shi'a
fighters from Lebanon are so dear to Assad that he agreed to
release the women for the Shi'as.
Also, on October 23, Islamic fighters blew up the gas
pipeline in Damascus. The explosion was huge and took the
shape of a fireball which could be seen for miles. Assad's
repair crews are busy but electricity has been out in most
of the fancy Damascus areas where Alawites supporting Assad
live.
October 25: Late reports indicate a bomb explosion by Assad
agents killed 40 people at a mosque, including children.
Breaking News #2: Iran: Battling Sunni mujahideen: On
October 25, Iran's border security forces in the Saravan
area of eastern Iran, near Pakistan, fell into an ambush by
Jaish al-Adl. At least 14 Iranian troops were killed. Jaish
al-Adl said on its web site that the attack was in response
to a massacre carried out by Iran's Quds force in Syria.
The next day Iran hanged 16 Sunnis in a prison in Zahedan to
take revenge for the attack although they had nothing to do
with the border attack. [BBC & Fars.]
Breaking News #3: Islamic Raid in Nigeria: Troops hit hard:
Army killing Civilians in Borno State
On October 25, Boko Haram mujahideen raided the town of
Damaturu in Yobe state. Military response took one hour.
Gunfights went on for several hours. The islamic fighters
took away hospital supplies and drove away in ambulances.
Scores of troops were killed. Meanwhile in neighboring
Borno state, Nigerian military is killing civilians at
random accusing them of being "Boko Haram." At least 75
people have been killed by the military [allegedly the
military is funded and armed by Israel and the US.]
Breaking News #4: Bangladesh: Backlash Against Nobel Prize
Winner supporting Homosexuality.
The founder of Grameen bank, Muhammad Yunus, personal friend
of Bill and Hillary Clinton, awarded the Nobel Prize by the
Zionists, finds himself in hot water after reports came out
that he supported homosexuality. He had in fact, with three
other nobel prize winners, signed a statement against the
prosecution of homosexuals in the eastern African country of
Uganda.
Bangladeshis want him expelled from their country. The
backlash is so strong that the government known for its
ant-Islam policies decided to join the public outrage
against Yunus. He is being supported by Taslima Nasrin whose
attack on Islamic values led to similar outrage and her
exile to India. [Source AFP]
[Homosexuality is condemned by the Qur'an. President Obama
and the entire Zionist lobby supports it. Thus it is seen as
an aspect of cultural imperialism in the Islamic
world....Editor. NT]

Message of Imam Jamil al-Amin to Jamaat al-Muslimeen Shoora
and to all Muslims.
[From prison in Florence, Colorado.]
IN THE NAME OF ALLAH, THE MOST GRACIOUS, THE MOST MERCIFUL.
From the slave of Allah: Jamil Al-Amin To : Those who dare
to struggle
As-Salamu ' Alaikum! All Praises are for Allah! I send
salaams to those I know and to those I do not know. I
earnestly ask you to use my case and others to raise your
level of struggle and to increase your ibadah. Truth is the
cry of all, but the discipline of the few ... there is no
worse lie than Truth misunderstood by those who say they
knew. Truth is a trust and falsehood is a treason. Truth is
absolute ... Truth is never relative
. "In the time of universal deceit, to speak the Truth is a
revolutionary act."
Raise my name in any and every venue (tv talk shows,radio
talk shows and social networks). Talk about the case and the
political and religious issues surrounding my case. Get
grass-roots people actively involved in calling for my
transfer and release.
Work to educate and organize the masses to be active in
demanding the release of all political prisoners.
In Peace Strong!
In Battle Strongest!!!

Zulhijja 18 was the anniversary of Usman, r.a., the third
greatest male Companion of the Prophet, pbuh, and third
Caliph of Islam, after Abu Bakr, r.a., and Umar, r.a. .
During his caliphate, his commander Muawiyya, r.a.,
destroyed the COMBINED FLEET of the Roman empire in one day.
Muhammad, pbuh, loved Usman, r.a., so much that he arranged
the marriage of his own daughter, Ruqayya, r.a.to him. Owing
to participation in the great struggle against oppression,
she did hijra with him and died. Then the Prophet, pbuh,
married his second daughter to Usman, r.a.
Usman, r.a., compiled the Qur'an we have today, with the
participation of the entire Muslim community. Later,
sectarians attacked and murdered him. He died with the
Qur'an he had compiled in his hand.
Br. Noori has written a tribute to Usman, r.a., from hadith
literature. This is only for Muslim readers. Please scroll
to the end to read it.

DELEGATION OF MUSLIM COMMUNITY LEADERS
C/o D-250, Abul Fazal Enclave, Jamia Nagar, New Delhi-110025
India
OBSERVATIONS OF MUSLIM DELEGATIONS
visiting camps of the uprooted in and around
Munzaffarnagar
in the light of the narrations of the uprooted
-
It was a one-sided attack by pro-BJP Jats, Almost no
other Hindu community participated in the carnage.
-
The carnage took place only in villages where Muslims are
in a small minority.
-
The carnage was pre-planned. Many meetings and three
"mahapanchayats" were held before the carnage started. The
so-called "eve-teasing" angle has now been proved false - it
all started with a collision of motorcycles which was
exploited by people who were waiting for a spark.
-
Police were helping and abetting the rioters before,
during and after the carnage. Arms and other defence objects
like ballams, gadansas and knives were collected by the
police from Muslim homes BEFORE the carnage while arms were
brought in from outside and distributed among the
rioters.
-
SHO of Phugana (Omvir Sirohi), where it all started, gave
the Hindus two hours from 8 am to 10 am on 8 September 2013
to do their job to teach a lesson to the Muslims.
-
Some Muslims, especially the elderly and children, are
still trapped in some villages but police is not ready to
bring them to safety. Denied of food and water, they may die
soon if not already killed by the rioters.
-
Cattle in large numbers have either been looted or are
left unattended in many abandoned homes without food and
water and according to reports they are dying out of thirst
and hunger if not already looted by the rioters.
-
People fled their villages at a notice of just minutes,
hence they came out in the clothes they were wearing. They
need clothes and bedding most.
-
Govt is supplying inadequate quantities of ration and
liquid milk as well as some medical help at places where a
bulk of the uprooted people are staying but not where they
are staying in small numbers or in homes of villagers or
relatives.
-
The uprooted urgently need items which are not provided
by the govt like clothes, bedding, soap, dried milk, baby
food, durries, chadars, utensils, etc.
-
Relief should be provided to all who have been forced to
flee their homes until they are repatriated or a solution is
found to resettle them somewhere else.
-
Many of uprooted people have farmlands where crops are
ready to be harvested. These will either be stolen or lost
if people are not given security to go there and harvest
them.
-
Most homes have been burnt down with corpses inside.
-
Young girls have been abducted and there is no attempt
by the police to recover them.
-
We did not find a single man or woman ready to return
ever to their abandoned villages. Even uprooted people of
"higher castes" like Mulla [Muslim] Jats are not ready to
return to their villages. They want to start life afresh at
other places. They should be encouraged to return to their
homes and adequate security in the form of permanent police
pickets should be posted there until normalcy returns
completely.
-
Muslims of the area have come out honourably to help
these uprooted people, thousands are lodged in homes in
Muslim-dominated villages, others are housed in madrasahs,
mosques and Eidgahs and other places.
-
Hindus too have come forward to prevent the violence and
to help the victims as seen in Kandhla town were some 7500
uprooted people are sheltered in the Eidgah. The role of
Kandhla S.P. (Harish Chandra Johsi) has been honourable and
praiseworthy.
-
A proper documentation of all the uprooted is necessary
at the earliest so that compensation and rehabilitation are
done without injustice to any.
-
Adequate help should be given to all to rebuild their
destroyed/burnt houses or to build new houses at other
places of their choice.
-
Adequate compensation should be given to all the
affected by the carnage for loss of life, injury, houses
looted and burnt, and for cattle and crops lost.
-
FIRs should be filed individually and collectively in
all cases of murder, attack, arson, loot, forced eviction,
abduction, etc.
-
The police is not allowing any photography of the burnt
houses in the affected villages. When it escorted some of
the victims back to their homes to retrieve some of their
belongings, police did not allow them to photograph the
burnt homes some which were still smouldering. Police even
collected their mobile phones in advance so that no
photograph could be taken. Police in Kandhla were ready to
provide some of us escort to go to some affected villages
with the condition that we will not take any photographs. We
think that the proofs will soon be destroyed. Therefore,
documentation should include still and video photography of
the looted and burnt homes.

Polish Town Removes Statue Recalling Rape of Millions of
German Women by Soviet Soldiers
Daily Mail (Britain)
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2458778/Komm-Frau-Gdnsk-tears-statue-marking-rape-millions-German-women-Russian-oldiers.htmlA statue that shows a Soviet soldier raping a
pregnant woman as he holds a gun to her head has been
removed and the artist arrested by authorities in northern
Poland. The statue, entitled "Komm, Frau" (Come, Woman),
appeared on Gdansk's Avenue of Victory on Saturday evening.
Artist Jerzy Szumczyk told Polish Radio he had researched
the subject of rape by the Red Army, as it made its way
across Eastern Europe between 1944 and 1945 towards Berlin.
The fifth-year student at Gdansk's Academy of Fine Arts was
so emotionally affected by what he read, he felt compelled
to express his feelings through art and created the
sculpture.

October 21, 2013, 12:34 p.m.
An Orange County security guard accused of planning to
become an Al Qaeda operative had been enlisted to train
terrorist fighters for an ambush on coalition forces in a
planned December attack, federal prosecutors said in court
Monday.
Sinh Vinh Ngo Nguyen, 24, was arrested this month boarding a
Mexico-bound bus in Santa Ana. Investigators allege he was
heading to Mexico City, with plans to fly to Pakistan and
train terrorist fighters.
His trial is scheduled for Dec. 3 in federal court in Santa
Ana.
Nguyen is charged with attempting to provide material
support - "namely himself," the indictment says - to the
terrorist group. He also is accused of lying on a passport
application, making false statements about his name, his
date of birth, his place of birth and other information.
He was traveling under the name Hasan Abu Omar Ghannoum when
arrested, authorities said.
During a hearing Monday, Nguyen was attentive and had
trimmed the shoulder-length hair and thick beard he wore in
his initial court appearance. He has pleaded not guilty.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Judith Heinz said that Nguyen
confessed to federal agents during a 90-minute interview
about his plans after agreeing to waive his Miranda
rights.
"At that time he talked about his activities in Syria and
also admitted his intent to train Al Qaeda fighters to
execute an ambush against coalition forces," Heinz said.
U.S. Federal Judge John F. Walter questioned whether Nguyen,
who was rejected from enlisting with the U.S. military
because of a hearing condition, had the skills and ability
to train 30 Al Qaeda foot soldiers, as alleged.
Nguyen owned two guns, trained at shooting ranges and had a
notebook with detailed instructions on how to train
shooters, Heinz said.
Prosecutors are expected to present hours of audio
recordings and Facebook posts in which Nguyen allegedly
admits to killing at least one person during a five-month
trip to Syria late last year, Heinz said.
Nguyen admitted to going to Lebanon and Syria for the
purpose of "help[ing] the Free Syrian Army," according to
federal documents.
He initially planned on flying to Pakistan, faking his own
death and applying for a Pakistan passport, according to
court documents. However, an undercover FBI agent reportedly
posing as an Al Qaeda recruiter told him he could apply for
a fake passport instead.
The federal agent gave Nguyen an application and said
sympathetic "brothers" within the U.S. government would
issue the passport, Heinz said. Nguyen was carrying that
passport when he was arrested Oct. 11, authorities said.
Nguyen also had $1,850 in Syrian currency when he was
arrested, Heinz said. Agents reported finding three swords
and a copy of Sun Tzu's "The Art of War" at the Garden Grove
home he shared with his family.
A friend who attended the hearing said Nguyen never spoke to
him about taking a trip to Syria.
"He talked about that with his other friends, I just know he
left without us knowing," said Robert Pham. "Of course we
were surprised, that's why we're here to know what
happened."
Usman, r.a., Compiled the Qur'an the Muslim World Reads
Today.
Tribute compiled by Br. Noori.
On the 18th of Zul Hijjah, 35th year of the Hijrah, the
companion of our beloved Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi wa
Sallam), Sayyiduna Uthman Al-Ghani (Radi Allahu Anhu) was
ruthlessly martyred. He was the third Khalifah (caliph)
amongst those known as the Khulafah al-Rashideen. His
patronymic (Kunyah) is Abu Amr. He is also known as
Zun-Nurayn (i.e. Possessor of two Lights), because the Noble
Prophet gave two of his honorable daughters' hands in
marriage one after the other to the Honorable Uthman
Al-Ghani (Radi Allahu Anhu).
He embraced Islam at the very advent . He is also known as
"Sahib al-Hijratayn" (the one who migrated twice) because
firstly he migrated to Habshah (Ethiopia) and then to
Madinatul Munawwarah.
Ameer al-Mu'mineen, Sayyiduna Uthman Al-Ghani (Radi Allahu
Anhu) was an ardent follower of the Beloved Prophet
(SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam). He was, in fact, the
embodiment of love of the Holy Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi wa
Sallam). Absolute submission to the Sunnah manifests in his
words and deeds.
-
One day Sayyiduna Uthman Al-Ghani (Radi Allahu Anhu) sat
by the entrance of the Masjid and asked for the meat of the
limb of goat and consumed it. He, then, offered Salah
without redoing the Wudu and explained that the Noble
Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam) also consumed the same
sitting on the same place, and did in the same way. [Musnad
Imam Ahmed bin Hanbal, Vol. 1, Page 137, Hadith 441]
-
Once Sayyiduna Uthman Al-Ghani (Radi Allahu Anhu) smiled
whilst performing Wudu. The people asked the reason, to
which he replied, "Once I saw that the Holy Prophet
(SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam) smiled having performed Wudu
at this very place." [Musnad Imam Ahmed bin Hanbal, Vol. 1,
Page 130, Hadith 415]
-
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (Radi Allahu Anhu) narrates,
"Uthman bought Jannah twice from the Prophet. Firstly, on
day of 'The Well of Ruma' and secondly, when the Muslims
were in a very poor state." [Al-Mustadrak li al-Hakim, Vol.
3, Page 107; Tarikh Dimashq al-Kabir, Vol. 41, Page 49;
Al-Kamil li Ibn Adi, Vol. 2, Page 464]
-
When the migrants came to the blessed city of Madina
Munawwarah, they did not like the taste of the water. A man
from the tribe of Bani Ghaffar possessed a well, named Ruma,
full of sweet water. He used to sell this water to the
people. The Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam) asked him
if he would sell his well for a spring in paradise. The man
replied, "O Prophet of Allah! This is my only income."
Hearing this, Syyiduna Uthman (Radi Allahu Anhu) came and
bought the well for thirty-one thousand. He then came to the
Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam) and asked, "Will I be
able to get the spring of Paradise like you said, if i w
ould buy the well from him?" The Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi
wa Sallam) said, "Yes." Thus, Sayyiduna Uthman (Radi Allahu
Anhu) stated, "I have bought the well of Ruma and given it
to the Muslims." [Al-Mu'jam al-Kabir, Vol. 2, Page 41-42,
Hadith 1226; Tarikh Dimashq al-Kabir, Vol. 41, Page 49; Kanz
al-Ummal, , Vol. 13, Page 35-36, Hadith 36183]
-
When the Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam) was
preparing for the battle of Tabuk, the Muslims were in needy
of some financial support. At this moment the Prophet
(SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam) sought the help of Sayyiduna
Uthman Radi Allahu Anhu. Hadrat Uthman (Radi Allahu Anhu)
gave 10,000 Dinars, thereafter the Prophet said, "O Uthman!
May Allah forgive your outer and inner mistakes and forgive
all that which you commit till the Day of Judgement. Uthman
can do whatever he wills." [Kanz al-Ummal, Vol. 13, Page 38,
Hadith 36189]
-
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (Radi Allahu Anhuma) has
stated that Uthman bin Affan's (Radi Allahu Anhu) absence
from the battle of Badr was because the daughter of the
Prophet of Allah (Ruqayyah), who was his wife, fell ill.
Allah's Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam) said to him,
"You will receive the same reward and share (of the booty)
as anyone of those who participated in the battle of Badr
(if you stay with her)." [Sahih al-Bukhari, Vol. 1, Page
523; Musnad Ahmad ibn Hanbal, Vol. 2, Page 101; Jaami'
Tirmidhi, Vol. 5, Page 395, Hadith 3726]
-
This was the specialty of Sayyiduna Uthman (Radi Allahu
Anhu) as whosoever does not attend the battle does not get
his share of the booty. Hadrat Abdullah bin Umar (Radi
Allahu Anhuma) has said, "The Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi wa
Sallam) allocated for him his share and did not do so for
anyone else who was absent." [Sunan Abi Dawud, Vol. 2, Page
18]
-
Sayyiduna Shurhabil bin Muslim (Radi Allahu Anhu) has
reported, "Ameer al-Mu'mineen, Sayyiduna Uthman Al-Ghani
(Radi Allahu Anhu) would feed the people with lavish food,
and he himself would go home and remain contented with
vinegar and olive only." [Az-Zuhd lil Imam Ahmad, Page 155,
Hadith 684]
-
He was known for his modesty, generosity and braveness.
The beloved Messenger of Allah (SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam)
said, "Should I not show modesty to one whom even the Angels
show modesty." [Sahih Muslim, Hadith 2402]
-
Ameer al-Mu'mineen, Sayyiduna Uthman al-Ghani (Radi Allahu
Anhu) has said, 'The hand by which I committed Bay'ah
(spiritual bond) in the blessed hands of the Most Noble
Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam), I have never touched
my genital organ with that (i.e. right hand) thereafter.'
[Az-Zuhd lil Imam Ahmad, Page 155, Hadith 685]
-
Sayyiduna Uthman al-Ghani (Radi Allahu Anhu) has said, "I
swear by Allah! I never committed fornication during the
pre-Islamic era of ignorance nor have I committed it after
embracing Islam." [Sunan Ibn Majah, Vol. 1, Page 99]
-
Sayyiduna Hasan al-Basri (Radi Allahu Anhu) has mentioned
explaining the extreme modesty of Ameer al-Mu'mineen,
Sayyiduna Uthman al-Ghani (Radi Allahu Anhu), "If he had
been in some room with the door properly shut, even then he
would not put off his clothes for taking the bath nor would
he straighten his back out of modesty." [Hilyat al-Awliya,
Vol. 1, Page 94, Hadith 159]
-
Ameer al-Mu'mineen, Sayyiduna Uthman al-Ghani (Radi Allahu
Anhu) would always observe Nafl (supererogatory) Fasts.
Having taken rest during the initial part of the night, he
would stand vigil (for worship) for the rest of the night.
[Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah, Vol. 2, Page 173]
-
Whenever Ameer al-Mu'mineen, Sayyiduna Uthman al-Ghani
(Radi Allahu Anhu) would get up for offering the Salah of
Tahajjud at night, he would himself arrange water for
performing the Wudu. When it was asked, 'Why do you bother
yourself; let your servant do it for you', He replied, "No,
the night is theirs; it is for their rest." [Ibn Asakir,
Vol. 39, Page 236]
-
Sayyiduna 'Abdullah bin 'Umar (Radi Allahu Anhuma) has
reported that the beloved Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi wa
Sallam) prophesized a heretical event and informed Sayyiduna
Uthman Al-Ghani (Radi Allahu Anhu) that he will be wickedly
martyred in that. [Tirmidhi, Vol. 5, Page 395, Hadith
3728]

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Salam (Radi Allahu Anhu) has
stated: When the rebels had laid siege to the sanctified
house of Uthman Al-Ghani (Radi Allahu Anhu) even a single
drop of water was not allowed to supply his blessed home.
Sayyiduna Uthman Al-Ghani would feel restless due to severe
thirst. He was observing fast during the day and I went to
see him. He looked at me and said, 'O! Abdullah bin Salam, I
beheld the Noble Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam)
through this skylight. The Most Merciful Prophet (SallAllahu
Alayhi wa Sallam) said in a very sympathetic manner, 'O
Uthman! These people have made you restless by thirst b
locking the water?' I respectfully replied, 'Yes.' So, the
Noble Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam) immediately
lowered a bucket towards me that was filled with water. I
quenched my thirst. I can still feel the soothing effect of
that water between both of my breasts and both of my
shoulders.
The Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam) then said, 'O
Uthman! If you wish, I'll help you against these people; or
if you like you may come to me and break your fast in my
company.' I respectfully replied, 'Ya RasoolAllah
(SallAllahu Alayka wa Sallam); breaking my fast in your
graceful court is dearer to me.' Sayyiduna Abdullah bin
Salam stated that he returned that day and Sayyiduna Uthman
was martyred on that same day by the rebels. [Kitab
al-Manamat, Vol. 3, Page 74, Hadith 109]

Imam Jalal al-Din Suyuti (Alayhir Rahmah) has narrated
that Shaykh Ibn Batish (Alayhir Rahmah) deduced that this
event (of the sighting of the Noble Prophet SallAllahu
Alayhi wa Sallam) was not a dream, rather it took place
whilst awake. [Al-Hawi lil Fatawi, Vol. 1, Page 151]
-
Sayyiduna 'Adi bin Hatim has stated that on the day when
Sayyiduna Uthman Al-Ghani (Radi Allahu Anhu) was martyred, I
heard with my ears that someone was saying aloud, "Give
Uthman Al-Ghani the glad tidings of comfort and fragrance;
tell him the delightful news about meeting with Rab (Azza wa
Jal). Who is not displeased; also give him the glad tidings
of forgiveness and the pleasure of his Rab (Azza wa
Jal)."
Shaykh 'Adi bin Hatim has further stated that he looked
around, but he did not see anyone. [Ibn Asakir, Vol. 37,
Page 355; Shawahid al-Nubuwwah, Page 209]

It has been reported that some of the close companions of
Uthman Al-Ghani (Radi Allahu Anhu) took his body to
Jannat-ul-Baqi' at night taking advantage of the darkness.
They were digging the grave when suddenly a large number of
riders entered Jannat-ul-Baqi'. The devotees got frightened.
The riders said loudly, 'Do not fear; we are here to take
part in his burial.' Hearing this, people's fear abated and
Sayyiduna Uthman Al-Ghani (Radi Allahu Anhu) was buried in
peace. After returning from the graveyard the Sahaba
al-Kiram (Alayhim ar-Ridwan) swore to the people that the
riders were in fact angels. [Shawahid al-Nabuwwah, Page
209]
Benediction be upon the ascetic of Mosque of Ahmad
Countless salutations be upon the wealth of army of poverty
Countless salutations be upon the bride groom of two lights
of chastity
who was indeed the excellent chain of the scattered pearls
