[b][/b]Did You Thank Allah for Your
Eyesight?
A blind boy sat on the steps of a
building with a hat by his feet. He
held up a sign which said: "I am
blind, please help." There were
only a few coins in the hat.
A man was walking by. He took a
few coins from his pocket and
dropped them into the hat. He
then took the sign, turned it
around, and wrote some words.
He put the sign back so that
everyone who walked by would
see the new words.
Soon the hat began to fill up. A
lot more people were giving
money to the blind boy. That
afternoon the man who had
changed the sign came to see
how things were. The boy
recognized his footsteps and
asked, "Were you the one who
changed my sign this morning?
What did you write?"
The man said, "I only wrote the
truth. I said what you said but in
a different way."
What he had written was: "Today
is a beautiful day and I cannot
see it."
Do you think the first sign and
the second sign were saying the
same thing?
Of course both signs told people
the boy was blind. But the first
sign simply said the boy was
blind. The second sign told
people they were so lucky that
they were not blind. Should we
be surprised that the second
sign was more effective?

[/color]The Patient Old Man
When passing through a
mountain pass, a bedouin
(villager) once came across an
old man who was blind and who
seemed to be afflicted with
various ailments all over his body.
It was clear that he was wasting
away. He was even paralyzed and
was constantly forced to remain
in a seated position. The Bedouin
could clearly hear him say, "All
praise is for Allah, Who has kept
me safe from ailments with
which He has tested many
among His creation; and He has
indeed preferred me over many
among those that He created."
"My brother!" exclaimed the
bedouin. "What have you been
saved from? By Allah, I think that
you have been afflicted with
every single kind of ailment!"
"Go away from me," said the old
man, as he raised his head. "Do I
not still have a tongue with
which I can pronounce His
Oneness, and with which I can
remember Him every single
moment? And do I not still have a
heart with which I can know
Him?"
These words of the old man
were enough for the bedouin to
repent to Allah for his sins and
ask Him for forgiveness.[color=#550000]The Patient Old Man

[color=#000099][/color]The Power of Istighfar
This story about "Istighfar" is
from the life of Imam Ahmed Bin
Hanbal, who is considered as a
renowned scholar of Islam and a
famous theologian. Imam Ahmed
is also considered to be the
founder of the Hanbali school of
fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence) and
is one of the most celebrated
Sunni theologians, often referred
to as the "Sheikh ul-Islam" or the
"Imam of Ahl al-Sunnah."
During his old age, while Imam
Ahmed was traveling he stopped
by a town. After the prayers, he
wanted to stay for the night in
the masjid yard because he
didn't know anyone in the town.
Owing to his humility, he hadn't
introduced himself to anyone
thinking that if he did, he would
be welcomed by many people.
Failing to recognize Ahmed bin
Hanbal, the caretaker of the
mosque refused to let him stay in
the mosque. As Imam Ahmed
was quite old, the caretaker had
to drag him out of the mosque.
On seeing this, a baker from a
nearby place felt pity for this man
(Imam Ahmed) and offered to be
the host to him for the night.
During his stay with the baker,
Imam Ahmed observed that the
baker would constantly recite
Istighfar (seek forgiveness from
Allah). Imam Ahmed asked the
baker if the constant practice of
saying Istighfar had any effect on
him. The baker responded by
telling Imam Ahmed that Allah
had accepted all of his duas
(supplications), except one. When
he asked him what dua was it
that hadn't been accepted, the
baker replied that he had been
asking Allah to provide him the
privilege to meet the famous
scholar Imam Ahmed bin Hanbal.
On this, Imam Ahmed bin Hanbal
said that Allah had not only
listened to his dua but had
dragged him onto his (the
baker's) doorsteps. [Summarized
from Al Jumuah magazine, vol 19,
issue 7]
This story is a reminder of the
power of saying Istighfar
(seeking forgiveness) frequently.

Education / FINALLY! (ASUP) Begins Indefinite Strike Today Oct. 4th 20. by Highbe(m): 9:46am On Oct 04, 2013
Latest educational news reaching our news desk today, is that the Nigeria Polytechnic Lecturers has commence Indefinite Strike Today, the 4th of October 2013.
According to the National President of Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics (ASUP), Mr Chibuzor Asomugha, on Thursday directed the union members nationwide to commence an indefinite strike starting from today, the 4th of October, 2013.
According to Mr. Chibuzor Asomugha who told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos state that the directive became imperative following the Federal Government’s failure to meet the union’s demands.
He went further to explained that two months after the union had suspended its previous strike, nothing had been done by the government to address the union’s demands.
NAN also recalled that the decision to embark on this indefinite strike on October 4 was reached at the 75th National Executive Council (NEC) meeting of the union in Bida, Niger State on September 28th 2013.
We also did recalled that ASUP embarked on a nationwide indefinite strike on April 29 over the Federal Government’s failure to address its grievances.
The strike was later suspended on July 17th pending that their needs will be met by the federal government.
The suspension was as a result of the intervention of the Joint Committees on Education of the Senate and the House of Representatives.Mr. Chibuzor Asomugha also told the News agency that it was over two months that the union suspended its strike, but the Federal Government had not fulfilled its pledge to address the issues.
“Nothing has been done since we suspended our strike in July,” he said.
Mr. Chibuzor Asomugha also pointed out that the union gave the Federal Government up till September 16, — a two-month grace period — within which to negotiate and settle the issues, but noted that nothing had been done so far by the federal government.
The president also said that the Federal Government had not fulfilled its bargain in the 2009 agreement with the union.
The union had, earlier in a statement on Monday, notified the Federal Government of its decision to go on strike if the government did not honour the agreements reached, but according to our informant, the federal government did almost nothing about the strike.
NAN also reported that the union’s demands include the possibility of lower cadres rising to CONTISS 15, and the release of a white paper on the visitation panel to the federal polytechnics.

Islam for Muslims / How Should We Observe Laylat Al-qadr? by Highbe(m): 9:20pm On Aug 04, 2013
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
All praise and thanks are due to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon His Messenger. Laylat Al-Qadr is the most virtuous night in the year. Almighty Allah says in the Qur'ansadWe have indeed revealed this (Message) in the Night of Power: And what will explain to thee what the night of power is? The Night of Power is better than a thousand months.) (Al-Qadr 97:1-3)
Thus, every Muslim should strive hard not to miss the opportunity in getting multiple rewards in these blessed days. One should draw nearer and nearer to Allah to get the blessings of Laylat Al-Qadr in this last third of Ramadan.
First; Imam Ahmad and Muslim narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to strive harder in worship during the last ten days of Ramadan than he ever did at any other time, praying, reciting the Qur’an, and makingdu`aa’. Al-Bukhari and Muslim narrated from `A’ishah (may Allahbe pleased with her) that when the last ten days of Ramadan came, the Prophet (peace and blessings of be upon him) would stay up at night and would wake his family up and would abstain from marital relations.
Second; the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) enjoined staying up and praying on Laylat Al-Qadr out of faith and in the hope of reward. It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said,“Whoever stays up and prays on Laylat Al-Qadr out of faith and in the hope of reward, his previous sins will beforgiven.”(Reported by Al-Bukhari and Muslim)
The previous hadith indicates that it is prescribed to observe Laylat Al-Qadr by spending the night in Prayer.
Third; one of the best supplications that may be recitedon Laylat Al-Qadr is that which the Prophet (peace and blessingsbe upon him) taught to `A’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her). At-Tirmidhi narrated, and classedthe report as authentic, that `A’ishah said: I said, “O Messenger of Allah, if I know which night is Laylat Al-Qadr, what should I say on that night?”He said,“Say: Allaahumma innaka `afuwwun tuhibb al-`afwa fa`affu `anni (O Allah, You are forgiving and You love forgiveness, so forgive me).”
Fourth, with regard to specifying which night of Ramadan is Laylat Al-Qadr, this needs specific evidence, but the odd-numbered nights during thelast ten nights are more likely than others, and the night of the 27th is the most likely to be Laylat Al-Qadr because that is mentioned in the Prophetic hadiths.
Allah Almighty knows best.

Islam for Muslims / Ramadan Coming To A Close: How Did It Go? (share) By Shari`ah Staff by Highbe(m): 8:51pm On Aug 04, 2013
ASALAM ALAYKUM WARAHMOTULLAH WABARAKATUHU. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) used to strive more in worship during Ramadan than he strovein any other time of the year; and he would devote himself more in the last ten nights of Ramadan than he strove in earlier part of the month.(Muslim).
The holy month of Ramadan is wrapping up, with its blessed days and spiritual nights. It’s quite noticeable how the sacredness of Ramadan makes the days swirl along us like a wind.Now the question is: How have we fared in the past blessed daysand nights? One should ask himself this question and try to give his practices a critical assessment.
How is your Ramadan plan going?
How many Qur’anic Surahs have you memorized?
Have you ever missed a Tarawih prayer?
Ever missed a chance of good deeds in Ramadan?
Try to think deeply and rate your deeds for the past days. The good news is that we still have a chance in the coming few days to make it up, especially in these last ten days, including a special night of power which is more rewardable and precious in the eyes of Allah than thousand nights.
So share with us how you have fared in the past days of Ramadan. Perhaps you can incite other readers as well, providing them with tips on how to make itup.
Politics / Re: Keke-Napep Banned In Some Lagos Commercial Areas ? by Highbe(m): 8:49pm On Aug 01, 2013
musiwa36: With the level of poverty in nigeria. It is wise to make them unemployed.

If you claim that revenue to the state from LAGBUS.

When you throw over 600,000 Okada riders out of a Job within a week. Is that a wise decision. You have created 600,000 unemployed people. in a city of just 20 million . In a day. When you look at the ripple effect to the economy it is not a wise decision. It create back crash in the economy.

Is that a wise decision. That is a stupid decision. How much is lagbus making per day, that you will create 600,000 criminal in one day.

If you claim income generation as your reason from lagbus. It is a stupid reason. Because if you have 600,000 you are better given them weekly fee for them to pay the government than put them on the unemployment market. if he claim His commissioners advise him to make that decision, do you think they merit leadership.

What type of decision is that.

What is leadership. Is a leader someone who destroy the life of thousand for just for some few people interest. Is that leadership. that is not leadership.

I dont care what US or Uk do. A wise leader most look at its environment to make wise decision. That was not a good decision.

Leadership is not about making the life of Adenuga better or Adeboye or dangote for the life of millions.. That is bad leadership.

A govt is about making many people life better and not of few.

"You are a bad leader, if you pick few for plenty, A leader satisfies majority and not a few." --- Musiwa 7/31/2013

I have been a leader most of my life from the age of 13 and I have had to lead people and make decision for them.
I will say "I am a people people and not a someone people --- Musiwa 7/31/2013


look each okada rider has 3 person depending on them. a wife and 2 children. making a family of 4. it gives you 2.4 million you have destroy their means of life hood.

2.4 million people is 12% of the population of lagos. some of them their children will become doctors and lawyer tomorrow but you have destroy that chance for their children. i will undone such a decision.
may God bless u my bros.
