IslamRe: Is It Proper to Greet Others or Count Prayer Beads During Khutbah? by decisive(m): 6:47pm On Apr 10, 2015
Salamu alaykum,
None of what you cited is allowed. Lots of my brothers have talked and talked adequately well. I just want to highlight one or two points on when khutbah has started.
1) It is good that nothing block your vision of the imam
2) You should continue to look at the face of imam. Meaning,you be in tune with what imam is saying.
3) The aim of the khutbah is to help prepare you to perform your duties to Allah for the week,hence you MUST be attentive to get jumat blessing
So,no other activity is allowed apart from sitting down,look directly onto imam's eyes and listen attentively. It is satanic's way(sorry to say that) to do ANYTHING outside the points above. Some people don't know,some people intentionally do it. There are some prayers that some won't start until imam starts khutbah and they end when imam starts to pray. That is satanic way.
Wastagfiruliy walakum.

IslamBenefits Of Ayats 'laqodjaku Rasulu' Q9:128-129 by decisive(op): 3:31pm On Apr 07, 2015
Every muslim that prays can't do without reciting Suratul At-Taubah verses 128-129. The verses are generally known as Laqodi jakun rasulu to the end. Generally,they are recited when sending peace and blessing to the deads.
However,pondering on the verses,one observes that they are highly informative. Verse 128 opens with 'certainly a messenger has come from among yourselves',the messenger,Muhammad(SAW) who sleeps with you,dines with you,who is like you and who knows everything about you. The verse continues 'grievious to him is your falling into distress',the messenger(SAW) who abhors whatever can make you SAD,who wants you to be happy. Yet it continues 'excessively solicitous of you', seeking Allah's mercy for and upon you,supplicating unto Allah to help you all the time while forgetting about himself. Then 'to the believers,(he is)compassionate', he is extremely merciful,he has deep and hearty fondness in making believers happy.
On verse 129,it says ' but if they turn back',meaning if they don't obey the messenger(SAW),or reciprocate him by obeying the commands of Allah or whatever he commands them, then 'say:Allah is sufficient for me',meaning with Allah I have everything,'there is no God but He',meaning,nobody can measure up to Him,'on Him do I rely',meaning Allah is my Shield,Armour and Support,'He is the Lord of mighty power',meaning he can do all things.
Now,on these ayats,the followings are the observations:
1)The ayats address the welfare of believers
2)It relates to whatever event that is capable of making a believer sad
3)Note that ayat 128 mentions believer,ayat 129 also affirms that when it says 'say Allah is sufficient for me...'
4) There is attestation of belief.
In essence,that informs why people use it to send peace and blessing to the deads. Since,death is grievious and a loss to them,they use the verses to wish the deads even if they can't see them.
But,is that all benefit we can derive from the verses? No. No other verse turns sadness to joy than the two verses. The best example is an hadith:
A slave converted to islam when the prophet was in Makkah. Because he was a slave,his master imprisoned him for the conversion and so he was unable to migrate to Medinah with other people. But anytime a recognised muslim pass bye the back of the prison he (the prisoner) would send greetings to the prophet (SAW). Once the message got to the prophet(PBUH),he sent reply that the prisoner should recite Laqodijakun... all the time,that he would gain freedom.
He did as he was told. He gained freedom and even entered Medinah with some of his master's animals.
Hence,the verses takes believers away from whatever may make him sad. However,it is important that one must have a solid faith,an unshakeable believe in Allah and his messenger for it to effectively work.
One last note. The verses is highly efficacious where people dashed your hope,or where in pursuit of a goal,peope left you in the cold,or for the innocents in police custody.
A grieve may last longer if you fail to recite Laqodijaku. It is recited as:
'Ladodijaku rosulu min anfusikun,'azeezu 'alaehi month 'anitum 'aritsun 'alaekum bili muhmineena ro'uufun roheemum. Fain tawalao fa kul hasbiyallahu laa ilaha illa huwa alaehi tawakalitu wa huwa robbuli 'arshi li-azeem.'
LiteratureJEGA. A Poem For Jega. by decisive(op): 8:20pm On Apr 06, 2015
JEGA
Jega,truly are you human,I doubt.
You are a multiple creation.
A diffusing coast of clean water
Created from filthy warped hands
To flow uphill of utmost treachery.

You were a creation not born
You were created by caustic politics
Weaned by adept sleight of hands
Harboured by cloths of tattered leaves
Guided by tongues of deception

Yet,you need to clean and clean
Or add to the dirt if you wish
Free hand you have to chose your path
But free will they want to take away.
You become a rat inside a gourd.

In your mind you suture your thoughts
You whet you strength and stamina
You pick your lens and take your focus
You are ignorant of attacks and bitterness
You announced yourself with constant strides.

Jega,are you human truly?
You are not. You are a phenonmenon.
You are an ideology,a study.
You are an established law that fails not.
Are you truly human,tell me Jega.

Though your creator with his creativity
Lost power he used to invent you
He is reverred for the lessons in you
That,persistence is the father of success
Jega,you are a mother of new nation.

Now I know who you are.
Cold water,that is what you are
Pleasant to see,good to have
You are soothing when provoked
A pleasant blow to all unpleasantness.

I wish there is a Jega at all crossroads
One that will always point the way
Even when there is all temptation.
Jega phenonmenon, a worthy creation
Of our Professor Attahiru Jega.

PoliticsWhy The US Refused To Sell Weapons To Nigeria. by decisive(op): 5:50pm On Mar 03, 2015
WHY UNITED STATES REFUSED TO SELL WEAPONS TO NIGERIA

An intelligent report from US security agencies has revealed why US refused to sell weapons to Nigeria in her fight against Boko Haram invasion.
The report said the US backed away when she found out that top Nigeria military officials leaked top security secrets to the Boko Haram.
At first,the United States,according to the report,had offer to help Nigeria in freeing the abducted Chibok girls. The report said US carried out surveillance of the Zambisa Forest and had spotted the girls. In utmost confidence,the generals told the Nigerian's military officials on the best way to free the girls.
The generals said they would need to gas the forest,gassing would make the terrorists sleep,they special team would rescue the girls. But,the next surveillance carried out by the US forces showed the terrorists,still in the forest,wearing gas masks. The report allegedly pointed the direction to the top security's secret leakage to Nigeria government.
The report concluded therefore that,if such vital secret could be so leaked,the US government feared the ammunitions Nigeria wanted to purchase from them could eventually end up in the armoury of the insurgents.

IslamThe Attitude that a Muslim Should Have Towards Problems by decisive(op): 11:42am On Feb 13, 2015
Are you troubled? Or are you worried by a problem? The following may be of help to you in sha Allah.

First,you need to know that trouble comes from two causes. Either your negligence invites it as Allah says:' we don't burden a soul beyond its capacity',or it comes as test from Allah.

Second,believe that it comes from Allah and ONLY Him has power to solve it. Inna lillahi wa inna ilaehi rojiun.

Third,don't believe anybody can help you bear your burden. Anybody that helps you does that at his convenience. Allah says:'la taaziru taaziratan wizroh huhro(meaning:'nobody can bear burden of another person).

Four,seek help on it from Allah ONLY. Pray fervently. Note that it is important that you believe in the efficacy of your prayers. Allah says:' inna llaha la yughayiru month bi qaomi atta yughayiru mon bi anfusihim(meaning:'Surely allah will not help a group,until they help themselves').

Five,be patient. In trial times,what should come first is patience. As Allah says:'Seek help from Allah with PATIENCE and prayer'.

Six,seek repentance always. Even if its just a test from Allah,won't you be humble? And if its self inflicted,won't you seek more of forgiveness?

Seven,hope for deliverance.
Subhanaka allahumo wa bihamdika,ashadu an la ila illa anta,astagfuruka wa a tubu illaehi.
