Hadith of the Week

Narrated by Anas bin Malik. r.a.

Once the Prophet delayed the 'Isha' prayer until midnight and then came to us.
Having prayed he faced us and said:
"The people had prayed and slept but you were in the prayer as long as you were waiting for it."

Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 12,

 Personal

This is the 2nd Anniversary of the day my step-son passed into the next world.

His name was Kristopher Day; we lovingly called him Kris. He was 26 years old, full of potential to do good and to make this life a success. It was a terrible tragedy that our society did not give him ample chances.

How many young people we lose, who just want an opportunity to do good.

Wherever Kris went, he was able to adapt. He went to Pakistan and fell in love with the country, and the country fell in love with him.

May Allah forgive his sins and short-comings and take Him into His innermost domain.
 Forget me not

How was the World's Biggest Hoax Concocted.
Rudolf Höss, His Torture and His Forced Confessions

Carlo Mattogno

Abstract

From 1940 to 1943, Rudolf Höss was the commandant of the bjkinfamous Auschwitz Camp. Today's orthodox narrative has it that during this time, some 500,000 people were killed at Auschwitz in gas chambers. Yet when Höss was captured after the war, he confessed to having killed some 2,500,000 during that time. 40 years later, it was revealed that Höss had been severely tortured by his British interrogators. This is an excerpt of the upcoming study by Carlo Mattogno. It tells the gripping story of Höss's capture and mistreatments, and presents the texts of the various "confessions" which the British extorted from Höss while in their custody

In the Preface to the complete English translation of Rudolf Höss's notes which he wrote while in Polish custody in Cracow, Steven Paskuly, editor of the work, writes that they "are perhaps the most important document attesting the Holocaust" (Paskuly, p. 11).

Australia's Role
New Zealand horrors Indicate Muslim Minorities can be targeted Anywhere.

Much Worse Treatment of Muslims has not Shocked anyone. Why?
by Kaukab Siddique, PhD

They were the most innocent among Muslims, praying peacefully in a country which has been a haven for Muslim refugees and which has not expressed any hatred for Muslikms.

The Australian terrorist [Brenten Tarrant] who opened fire on defenseless worshippers had also arranged live streaming of his atrocity onto social media. So the raw horror of the slaughter was made

available to the public. The Australian had come well prepared with his project. He fired systematically first at the men and then at the women and children. Among those he shot but had not died,, he carried out close quarter executions. A woman who fell and cried for help was shot dead.

The only resistance came from a Pakistani, from Abbottabad, who slightly delated the massacre by trying to stop the Australian with his bare hands. Much more effective was an Afghan at the second mosque who threw things at the Tarrant and forced him to retreat. The toll at the second mosque was much lower.

The ugliness of the brutal killing was enhanced by the speech of an Australian senator, [Fraser Anning, who blamed the deaths of the helpless victims on themselves. In total ignorance he also insulted the prophet, pbuh. Australia seems to thrive on ignorance. He does not know anything about the Prophet, pbuh, but insults him just by the way.

[Muslim countries should boycott Australia till Anning apologizes. It's worth remembering that Australia sent troops to Afghanistan to fight Islamic opposition.
Australia has a history of excluding people of color and oppressing indigenous people.

White supremacists around the world joined in the howling glee of the bloodletting in New Zealand..

The pain was somewhat softened by the kind words of the New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern who not only was objective and sorrowful but also joined the Muslim community by putting on th head scarf.

However she still has to explain why it took the police 20 minutes to reach the mosque when it is supposed to take 2 minutes. Also strange is the total innocence of New Zealand about the accumulation of weaponry by the Australian terrorist,

The massacre sent shock waves into Muslim minorities around the world and also elicited condemnation from Muslim majorities led by the Turkish leader Erdogan and the Jamaate Islami movement in Pakistan.

Here are some of my thoughts on this tragedy:

  1. Muslim minorities have become comfortable in non-Muslim countries and take it for granted that they will be protected by their non-Muslim countries of choice. Their drive towards integration and assimilation into the non-Muslim nations blinded them to the rise of White Supremacist hatred aimed at Muslims. Though non-Muslim majorities remain friendly towards Muslims, as they see many benefits coming to their nations from the elites of Muslim societies who have migrated to the West.

  2. Owing to their comfort level, Muslim immigrants have not trained prayer congregations to prepare security measured against White Supremacist assault. For instance, in USA, large mosques with hundreds of worshippers have only one policeman near the mosque and he/she is usually unarmed and merely directing traffic..

  3. Self=defense is a cardinal principle of Islam [known as jihad] is totally neglected ny immigrant communities. In fact they are scared of evening mentioning the word "jihad" which occurs in the longer suras of the Qur'an and some of the shorter ones.


  4. The two most important issues:

  5. The western powers support Israel and the worst dictators in the Muslim world, such as General Sissi of Egypt and the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia along with the regime in UAE.

  6. The western powers and Israel have conducted monstrous genocidal actions against Muslims but these are not reported by the western media which also feed Muslim immigrants.

    Here are some of the genocidal actions which are reported by the wire services but are neglected by the media:

    1. The destruction of the entire city of Mosul in Iraq, leading to 40,000 Muslim civilians killed and more than a million made homeless. The operation lasted over a year and was actually hailed in the West. None of the civilian deaths were highlighted.

    2. The destruction of eastern Aleppo and the six cities around Damascus by the Assad regime carried out by Russian and Iran but not opposed by the western poerts.

    3. More than 65000 Muslim deaths in Syrian tyrant Assad's prisons through torture and starvation, documented by human rights organizations. More than 10,000 women and children are included in these killings..but were tracked a

    4. The destruction of the entire city of al-Raqqa by the US air force and SDF Kurdish artillery.

    5. The wives and children of Islamic State supporters moved from al-Raqqa to the southern city of Mayadein but were tracked and killed by the US and allied air forces.


Owing to the constant western drum beat of anti-Muslim propaganda by western-Israeli media, even Indian killings in occupied Kashmir and Russian attacks in Chechnia do not make it to the front page.

New Zealand comes as a shock because most Muslims do not know what supremacists in air force uniforms have been doing on a much larger scale in Muslim countries.

The killer visited Turkey and Pakistan several times and perhaps was thinking of committing his crimes over there but could not find resources and logistics.

Dear Muslims, become sensitive to security needs. No one is going to help you if you don't attempt to help yourself.
Don't take western propaganda against armed Islamic groups. At least speak against the killing of Muslim civilians by the supremacists in air force uniforms.

Even the Syrian regime embassy in Pakistan has not been closed down despite te genocide in Syria by the Assad regime. General Sissi is as strict in the embargo of Gaza as is Israel.

This is the age of information. Why do Muslims not have the basic information about the world in which they live?

 Pakistan

New Zealand.
JI says Security of Muslims Worldwide in Danger.

By Qaiser Sharif

LAHORE, Mar. 15' Ameer, Jamaat e Islami, Pakistan, Senator Sirajul Haq, has strongly condemned the terrorist attack at a mosque in New Zealand and termed it an attack on Islam and the entire Ummah.

He has called upon the government to immediately call an OIC meeting to take notice of the incident and devise a strategy for the protection of the Muslims against terrorism.

Sirajul Haq said that in the recent times, the incidents of terrorism against Islam and the Muslims had increased at an alarming rate in the western and European countries. Attacks on the mosques, madrissahs and veil observing Muslim women had become a routine.

He said that the attack on the faithful during prayers was the worst form of terrorism and the Muslims rulers should not remain silent on it. He further said that the governments should not be content with verbal condemnation and should expose the terrorists involved in the incident and the forces behind them. He said that the security of the Muslims was the responsibility of Pakistan and the entire Muslim world.

The JI chief prayed for the salvation of the martyrs and for the quick recovery of the injured. Fateha was also offered for the martyrs at Mansoora mosque.

Nationwide College Admissions Scandal Reveals Widespread Bribery.
Federal agents uncover this accidentally while working on an unrelated case.
Actors Fired. CEO's Stepdown. Coaches Fired. Universities to Remove Students.

[with thanks to Sis.Kristi]

The FBI uncovered the $25 million nationwide college admissions cheating scandal by accident while agents were working an unrelated securities fraud case, two law enforcement sources told ABC News.

The Boston-based agents received a tip from someone connected to the securities fraud investigation about the alleged $400,000 bribe paid to the then-head women's soccer coach at Yale to fabricate athletic credentials, the sources said.

The coach then cooperated with the investigation, according to the sources, which spiraled into what prosecutors called the largest college admissions cheating scam ever prosecuted in the United States, as 50 people were indicted, including actresses Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin.

NCAA launches probe
The NCAA announced it will launch an investigation into the widespread cheating scandal that implicated nine coaches at elite schools

UCLA officials are conducting a similar review.

A former cast member on the ABC sitcom "Full House," Loughlin and Oscar-nominated actress Huffman, 56, are among 33 parents charged with conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud in the coast-to-cost scam to get their children into elite colleges, including Yale, Stanford, Georgetown, Wake Forest and the University of Texas.

The feds dubbed the investigation "Operation Varsity Blues" and said it was triggered by an unrelated investigation by FBI agents in Boston.

Loughlin's husband, fashion designer Mossimo Giannulli, 55, was arrested Tuesday on charges of conspiracy to commit mail fraud and appeared in Los Angeles federal court.

Widespread bribery

Loughlin and Giannulli "agreed to pay bribes totaling $500,000 in exchange for having their two daughters designated as recruits to the USC crew team -- despite the fact that they did not participate in crew -- thereby facilitating their admission to USC," according to the indictment.

U.S. Education Secretary Betsy DeVos made her first comments about the scandal Wednesday in a interview with Fox News.

How the scam worked

Singer would instruct parents to seek extended time for the children to take SAT and ACT entrance exams by obtaining medical documentation that their child had a learning disability, according to the indictment. The parents were then told to get the location of the test changed to one of two testing centers, one in Houston and another in West Hollywood, California, where test administrators Niki Williams, 44, of Houston and Igor Dvorskiy, 52, of Sherman Oaks, California, and an exam proctor helped carry out the scam, the indictment alleges.

Riddell would allegedly either take the tests for students or would correct their answers after they took the tests, according to the indictment.

To bolster students' college entrance applications, Singer worked with parents to allegedly concoct glowing profiles of their children, including staged or Photoshopped pictures of them participating in sports, the indictment alleges.

In one case highlighted by federal prosecutors, the former head women's soccer coach at Yale University, Rudolph "Rudy" Meredith, 51, was paid $400,000 to accept a student even though the applicant did not play soccer. The parents of that student had paid Singer $1.2 million.

Coaches fired, CEO steps down
As shockwaves from the arrests spread across the country, the fallout for some of the defendants was swift.

Athletic Directors, Coaches, and other personnel from prestigious and Ivy League University's such as Stanford, Univ of Texas, USC, and the list goes on... have been fired.

After Lelling announced the stunning indictment on Tuesday, he stated "the parents charged in the scam represent "a catalog of wealth and privilege", and "For every student admitted through fraud an honest, genuinely talented student was rejected."

What a shame!
