Editorial

Reprinted on Request,
The Age of Ayesha: r,a. Muslims don't study Hadith and Wasted their efforts.

by Kaukab Siddique

All this writing about the age of Ayesha, r.a., is conjecture and opinion mixed with a desire to show knowledge of classical writings. I expressed similar views 30 years back in New Trend. [These writers seem to be ignorant of my writing 30 years back and write as if they are doing new research.]

My study of hadith changed my understanding.

The narrative in Sahih Bukhari about the age of Ayesha, r.a. is NOT a hadith.

The Prophet, pbuh, DID NOT SAY that the age of Ayesha, r.a., was such and such. Ibn Hisham thought someone heard Ayesha, r.a., saying this.

If you know hadith, only Hadith e Muhammad, pbuh, can be made part of Islam. HE NEVER MENTIONED HER AGE. It is not his hadith. Did the sahabah, r.a., mention her age? NO!

Thirdly, there was no formal calendar at that time. As we should all know, the Hijri calendar was formulated later by the Caliph Umar, r.a.

So, Muslims have been fighting over a non-issue. They are reacting to western attacks on Ayesha, r.a.

Instead of focusing on the leadership and scholarly abilities of Ayesha, r.a., we are as usual reacting to the West.

Shia attacks on Ayesha, r.a., also have to do with this reaction. She did not accept the Caliphate of Ali, r.,a. and the Shias constantly try to belittle her as just a little girl.

Most probably Shias have planted some of these age related "hadith".

There is no sanction for these "hadith" from the Prophet, pbuh, or the Sahaba, r.a.

Karachi Elections were Rigged. Jamat will appeal to the courts.

June 16. The Jamate Islami Shura session, discussed the prevailing political situation and rejected the mayoral elections in Karachi as rigged.

Sirajul Haq, on whose appeal the countrywide protest demonstrations were held against the unconstitutional method adopted in the Karachi polls, announced the JI would approach the courts to get declared the election illegal and also continue agitation.

He said the neutrality and the authority of the Election Commission came under question after Thursday's episode when the party who received 325,000 votes was declared the winner against those who secured 900,000 votes from the port city in local body elections.

The day, he added, was remembered as a bad day in the history of Karachi. He said the biggest city could not be left to the wishes of a prince.

'Assalamu `Alaykum wa Rahmatullaah'

A JAPANESE SCIENTIST DISCOVERS SECRETS OF ZAMZAM WATER !
Science, at a very later stage, reveals new secrets about Zamzam water. Dr. Masaru Emoto took a sample of Zamzam water, and said ---'I couldn't crystallize it, even by diluting the water by 1,000.'The following was written by Dr. Masaru Emoto'The quality/purity of Zamzam water will not be found anywhere else in the water on this earth...!he used the technology named NANO, and researched a lot on Zamzam water. and found out that if one drop of Zamzam water mixed in 1000 drops of regular water, regular water would get the same quality like Zamzam water...!!!he also found that a mineral in one drop of Zamzam water has its own importance that will not be found in any other water on this earth.Dr. Emoto, also found in some tests that the quality or ingredients of Zamzam water can not be changed ! why is that ??? science does not know the reason...!he re-cycled the Zamzam water, but there was no change, it was still pure.

'Subhan-Allah'~Surely this is a Miracle of ALLAH [SWT]
Zamzam water level is around 10.6 feet below the surface. It is the miracle of ALLAH[SWT] that when Zamzam was pumped continuously for more than 24 hours with a pumping rate of 8,000 liters per second. The water level dropped to almost 44 feet below the surface.BUT WHEN THE PUMPING WAS STOPPED, the level immediately elevated again to 13 feet after 11 minutes...!8,000 liters per second means that8,000 x 60 = 480,000 liters per minute.480,000 liters per minutes means that 480,000 x 60 = 28.8 Million liters per hour And 28.8 Million liters per hour means that 28,800,000 x 24 = 691.2 Million liters per day.so they pumped 690 Millions liters of Zamzam water in 24 hours, but it was re-supplied in only 11 minutes.

Alhamdulillah there are 2 Miracles here... !
The first that 'Zamzam' was re-filled immediately, & the second is that ALLAH [SWT] holds the extraordinarily powerful aquifer for not throwing extra Zamzam out of the well, otherwise the world would SINK.

Dr. Emoto also found out that when anyone recites Qur`anic verses on regular water, the water has the ability for the treatment of different diseases.

ALLAH [SWT] says in the Holy Qur`an... 'We will soon show them Our signs in the universe and in their own souls, until it will become quite clear to them that it is the truth. Is it not sufficient as regards your Lord that HE is a witness over all things.' (Source~ 'Qur`an'~ Surat Fussilat ~ 41~ A # 53~

Africa
These are not real Hajjis. They Should be Taught Before Going to Makka.
by Kabir Oyemomi

Given the rate of poverty in the Western part of Nigeria, especially amongst the Yorubas, it's a golden opportunity for those that are able to make it to Hajj. This is so because almost 90 percentage of the lucky ones are being sponsored by well-to-do individuals or corporate bodies or government. Majority are actually sponsored by political office holders or politician in position of authority.

The facts above make it happen that majority of pilgrimages from this end are actually not prepared for Hajj as there is huge misplacement of purposes. Because those sponsoring them do not really go for quality that bothers on spirituality or spiritual uprightness as many chosen pilgrimages are either battling with observing Solat regularly or not saying it all. Many of them are heavy drunkards while others do not understand the purpose and letter of Islam.

The real people of faith who are indigents are not so lucky to be sponsored as they do not have access to these power brokers and rich individuals.

This brings about unruly behaviors in the holy land: many pilgrimages make it avenue of hooking up with their opposite sex co-pilgrimages which results into adultery and fornication upon returning.

All of these attitudes of immorality are not hidden from any Muslim from this part of Nigeria, but it is evident with show of same for other people on social media. I'm not sure any country of the world can show off through selfie like our people. Facebook is already jam-packed with videos of pilgrimages that are supposed to be the most humbled at this period of seeking a good countenance of Allah, knowing that Hajj is surely rewarded with jannah.

We implore those rich people in the society that are desirous of sponsoring pilgrimages to make a painstaking effort to be sure that whoever is sponsored knows the purpose and importance of Hajj. We supplicate to Almighty Allah to accept the Hajj of those with pure intention and guide the wondering souls among them to remain firm for Allah alone.




New Tyranny in Tunisia

al Jazeera

18 Jun 2023 Hundreds of supporters of Tunisia's main opposition coalition have rallied to demand freedom for about 20 imprisoned opponents of President Kais Saied.
alJazeera.com/opinions/2023/5/5/kais-saieds-tunisia-is-becoming-a-failed-state

Amidst a heavy security deployment, the opposition coalition under the name of the National Salvation Front organised a vigil on Sunday in front of the municipal theatre in the centre of the capital,

What's behind the EU's financial aid offer to Tunisia?

Up to 300 protesters, many carrying photographs of people they called "political prisoners", gathered in defence of the former ministers, business figures and others held since February.

They also raised slogans accusing Saied of tyranny and sabotaging the country and the economy, and challenged the campaign of arrests and trials [ alJazeera.com/news/2023/5/18/tunisia-a-ticking-time-bomb-as-saied-cracks-down-on-opposition ] among the opposition."Freedom! Freedom!" they chanted, as they demanded an election ahead of the scheduled October 2024 date.

In March, the European Parliament, in a nonbinding resolution, decried the "authoritarian drift" of Saied, who says those arrested were "terrorists" involved in a "conspiracy against state security".




 Hadith of the Week
Hadith of the Week

{Fathers' Day in USA]

Prophet Ibrahim a.s. became a father at a very late age, and was delighted at the gift of fatherhood which Allah s.w.t had bestowed upon him. Despite this age gap, Prophet Ibrahim a.s. showed interest in his son's viewpoint when he told his son of Allah s.w.t's decree to the sacrifice.

"O my son, indeed I have seen in a dream that I [must] sacrifice you, so see what you think."

He said, "O my father, do as you are commanded. You will find me, if Allah wills, of the steadfast."

(Surah As-Saffat [37:102])




Abu Darda reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, "The father is the middle of the gates of Paradise. If you wish, you can squander this gate or keep to it."

 India

INDIA

India has banned Documentaries from Al Jazeera and BBC.

This is what India is trying To hide.

... Who Lit the Fuse? is part of Al Jazeera's Point Blank investigation series. Backed by testimony and documents, it uncovers the activities of Hindu supremacist outfits, such as the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), the far-right ideological mentor of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)
alJazeera.com/news/2023/4/14/mughals-rss-evolution-outrage-as-india-edits-school-textbooks

.The RSS, a secretive militia group with millions of members across India, was inspired by the Nazis in Germany. Formed in 1925, it aims to create an ethnic Hindu state out of a constitutionally secular India.The film also depicts the harassment and targeting of nearly 700,000 Muslims in the northeastern state of Assam, governed by the BJP. Since the passage of a citizenship law in 2019, the Bengali-speaking Muslims in Assam fear losing their nationality and being deported to neighbouring Bangladesh.
alJazeera.com/news/2021/10/12/india-assam-muslims-forcibly-evicted-dhalpur-bjp-darrang

The Al Jazeera investigation also reveals widespread campaigns across multiple Indian states to demolish properties belonging to Muslims.
alJazeera.com/opinions/2023/4/3/politics-of-ruin-why-modi-wants-to-demolish-indias-mosques

The campaigns include tearing down homes and businesses, which critics say is an attempt to economically and socially disenfranchise India's Muslim minority.

A BJP spokesman dismissed the allegations made in the documentary, saying Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government is committed to rule of law in the Hindu-majority country and individuals accused of targeting Muslims would face severe consequences.He also defended the RSS, calling it non-discriminatory and working for the welfare of Indians from all the backgrounds, including Muslims, Christians, tribal people and historically disadvantaged groups such as the Dalits.

The move against the Al Jazeera documentary follows a similar ban imposed on a BBC film that questioned Modi's role when he was the chief minister of Gujarat state, where more than 1,000 Muslims were killed during riots in 2002. Activists say the actual death toll is twice that number.
alJazeera.com/news/2023/6/13/rights-groups-to-screen-bbc-film-on-modi-before-white-house-visit

Since the banning of the BBC film in January, its offices in New Delhi and Mumbai have been raided, and Indian authorities have accused the United Kingdom-based network of tax violations. The BBC denied the charges and said it stands by the facts mentioned in its two-part film.
