Some are short (and sweet) and come in different forms ie. poetry, others longer for more deeper subjects.Sabrinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15261438258667267004noreply@blogger.comBlogger150125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1217705446734627098.post-27760057979746586602015-06-07T12:25:00.002-04:002015-06-07T12:25:51.032-04:00Ramadan 2015 Videos I NEED Ramadan in my life this year and am really looking forward to it more than usual!!!

<strong>Quran Weekly's Ramadan Pro Tips</strong> <br />
All the tips are listed below. I will continue to add the tips as they are put up. My favorite reminders are bolded. <br />

<br />
1. Allah has no need for a person to deprive themselves from food, water and drink if he can’t discipline his tongue.<br />
2. Small children do not need to be an obstacle to our spiritual ambitions during the month of Ramadan. Learn how parents can balance enjoying the spirituality of the month of Ramadan while sharing the responsibility of caring for young children. <br />
3. Take advantage of the excellent opportunities to seek knowledge and to be able to learn more about ones’ deen and religion this Ramadan<br />
<strong>4. This Ramadan, while we learn to be patient while fasting we also need to learn to appreciate the blessings that we enjoy. <br />5. Attending tarawih prayers allows a person to listen to the recitation of the Quran, which is a source of blessing and guidance for all of us.<br />6. Host an iftar, at the masjid or at your home, and earn the reward of those fasting without decreasing their reward.</strong><br />
<strong>7. Training yourself to get up and eat suhoor not only ensures you earn the blessing of the pre-fast meal but also allows one to engage in additional worship during the early morning hours.</strong><br />
<strong>8. Sisters who are unable to pray and fast during Ramadan can make sure their Ramadan is still spiritually beneficial and productive by doing one small, incredibly beneficial thing – making dua!<br />9. Strengthen your relationship with the Quran by dedicating a set amount of time every day to recitation and then reading the translation. <br />10. Break the fast as soon as it comes in with a small amount of food and drink, and focus on making dua and praying maghrib on time.</strong><br />
11. For lightening the load or burden on fellow coworkers in the month of Ramadan, Allah will forgive all of that person's sins and free them from the fire of Hell. <br />
12. Those who perform umrah in the month of Ramadan earn the reward of performing hajj with the Prophet (peace be upon him). <br />
13. This Ramadan, while we show generosity to everyone around us, do not forget to also show generosity and kindness to your family members.Sabrinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15261438258667267004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1217705446734627098.post-19446784447835872812015-04-03T19:16:00.003-04:002015-04-03T19:16:12.711-04:00Poetry by Ibrahim JaaberI recently found more poetry by Ibrahim Jaaber and wanted to share 3 of my new favorites!

<br />
1. Virtues of the 1st 10 Days if Dhul Hijjah. I always miss the first few days :( but inshAllah we can still make use of the remaining 10 days. For more info, please go <a href="http://1000gooddeeds.com/2009/11/20/good-deed-76-increase-good-deeds-during-first-10-days-of-dhil-hajj/" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://1000gooddeeds.com/2009/11/24/good-deed-78-fast-on-day-of-arafah/" target="_blank">here</a>. <br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="400" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/Lf1S7yNtJME?rel=0" width="400"></iframe><br />
<br />
2. The 1 Accepted Hajj. Something to think about and share with those who have gone or will be going on hajj. <br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="400" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/xExNn_VhAZk?rel=0" width="400"></iframe>
<br />
<br />
3. Shaytan's Voice. May Allah help those of us "addicted" to music stop and replace it with Quran. Ameen. <br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="400" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/KunLxP8ltBU?rel=0" width="400"></iframe><br />
<br />
4. A Highway Robber. Interesting. An example of how one can change if one WANTS to and Allah guides them. <br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="400" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/1CkVSJ6Tyvc?rel=0" width="400"></iframe><br />
<br />
5. Don't Say You Weren't Warned. No excuses. Another reminder on death. <br />
<br />

Here are some favorite videos I watched recently and wanted to share. This is a random assortment, but sometimes different is good :)<br />
<br />
1. This video on pork isn't a "favorite", but I wanted to share it. I couldn't even finish it because it was disgusting, but it goes to show that Allah really knows and wants what is best for all of us. Alhamdulillah for being a Muslim <3 I don't know how after knowing all this, someone could still enjoy eating pork, so please share this with those you know who can benefit from the information. <br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="400" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/wv8Cik26DeM" width="400"></iframe>
<br />
<br />
2. This made me cry a bit... Everyone isn't guaranteed life, but we are all guaranteed death. May we all return to Allah in a state that He is pleased with us. Ameen. <br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="400" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/NtOGzp65baY" width="400"></iframe>
<br />
<br />
3. An amazing story with a great reminder towards the end. May Allah free our brothers and sisters in Islam. Ameen. <br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="400" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/JvJov4031lw" width="400"></iframe>
<br />
<br />
4. Another video that made me cry... Sad to see how far people will go to hurt Muslims, even if it is family. <br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="400" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/uu1C9jVwAjg?rel=0" width="400"></iframe>
<br />
<br />
5. This is a documentary, so it is longer, but worth watching. Really interesting and a lot to learn. I enjoy learning about new Muslims, so I loved watching this! <br />
<br />

May Allah help us successfully find the special night of Laylatul Qadr and make the most of it. Ameen. Here is a list of beneficial information about Laylatul Qadr. <br />
<br />
I regret I didn't do this earlier and I am NOT posting this today to single out the 27th night as special from the other last 10 odd nights. I just happen to finally stop procrastinating today... Anyways, to the point of the post. <br />

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;">This
video reminded me of something I read a few days ago that seriously surprised
me and hurts to even mention, but inshAllah it is something to learn from.
Please read below. <o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;">"One
of the scholars from Riyadh narrated that they visited a hospital and found a
man with his daughter, who was very ill. The daughter was forty years old and
had never married, for every man who had come for her, her father rejected.<o:p></o:p></span></span><br />
<span style="color: black; font-family: Times New Roman;">

<span style="color: black;"><span style="color: #993300;"><span style="font-family: "book antiqua", palatino;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;">The
scholar said that the woman’s father was from the greediest of people. The
father was a person of the dunya, but his dunya did not benefit him. He had
many offices: real-estate, cars and clinics; however, it was known amongst the
people that if his daughter were to be married, a suitor cannot marry her
except with hundreds of thousands [in wealth]. Thus, all of the young men who
came to propose were rejected because they were youth lacking wealth. And due
to the circumstances of the people, the men wishing to marry her could not
afford to pay the high mahr [stipulated by the father, not the daughter
herself]. So every righteous man who came, he was asked about his employment
and his cars and his salary and if the suitor informed the father that he did
not have the precise qualifications he stipulated, then he was turned away.
This continued until the daughter reached forty years of age. Then she suffered
an acute illness and was admitted to the hospital. Then, due to the severity of
her illness, death became imminent. And, certainly, death is the time to meet
the One who judges between parties, and there is no Judge except Him, the One
who implements justice between the oppressed and the oppressor.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></span></span></span></span></div>

it was clear to the daughter that her death was but moments away, she said to
