THE HUMBLE CITY Tue, 07 Oct 2008 00:17:53 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=1.5.1-alpha by: almiskeenah http://almiskeenah.blogsome.com/2007/04/21/a-ramble-06/#comment-610 Mon, 23 Apr 2007 23:03:18 +0100 http://almiskeenah.blogsome.com/2007/04/21/a-ramble-06/#comment-610 Assalam alaikum HB, Ameen thumma Ameen to your moving sentiments. Maybe Allah Ta'ala, the Master Planner has devised this "blurring of boundaries" as another of His startling WAKE UP CALLS for us...so that once we recognize our distorted vision towards all the Bounties He has bestowed upon us with this Deen, (and the reality is that as yet a good fifth of the population as it is now has not been blessed with Hidayah), then at least we are in a position to work at changing our condition and UNMIXING the mixed up! May we beg Him to assist us all in following His Commands with clarity, and be courageous to keep actualizing more of the Mubarak Sunnah into our lives. And may as I offer my humble words for "HB" in my Du'a that Allah Ta'ala, the All-Seeing and the All-Knowing, knows exactly who I am referring to :) Wassalamu alaikum almiskeenah Assalam alaikum HB,

May Allah gives us all the tawfiq. Please remember us in your kind dua’s Jazak'allah Khair, Wasalam Salams,

Ameen Thumma Ameen to your Du'a's dear brothers Muhamed and Ikramuddin, such words bring solace to the heart compared to so many other words and incidents floating around cyberspace. I have not forgotten your request from last time you wrote Brother Muhamed, seems Allah Ta'ala has not opened the avenues for me to access such information just yet...however I do keep trying. Insha'Allah the opportunity will present itself one day, though being a sister limits such thing somewhat. What exactly would you like to know? JazakumuLlahi khairan for the site, it certainly is a blessing for the Ummah all over the world to be able to feel part of the Haramain Salat and Khutbahs. There used to be a site translating the two Khutbahs each week but unfortunately they no longer offer this service. I made inquiries about that too but have never received any reply. I guess people can access the Salat via TV as well? The net connections here are so slow (like the past few days where it has been so slow that there has been no connection!) for downloads that I rarely have the time to wait for the buffering. That sounds an interesting expression brother Ikramuddin! May be it is the latest word for muddle, an expressive word that rolls off the tongue enhancing the feeling of muddleheaded/fuddlebrain! :) Whatever the word, Insha'Allah we try to practice this Deen in it's clarity and purity, leaving aside any "mix". And I repeat your words: May He subhanawatala protect us from getting involved in the mix up, ameen.

I guess the word 'mix' was most appropriate because of how everything was seemingly just meshed and mixed up together... and in light of your post we could say that one who is in the 'mix' is the one who has lost sight of our covenant with Allah azawajal and our promised return to Him. May He subhanawatala protect us from getting involved in the mix up, ameen. Once again a great thought provoking post! Jazakiallah Khair.

Really looking forward to some information on the Muezzin and Imams of the prophet's mosque (if you can find this information). A lot of information that you have posted illustrates the effort that you put. I make dua to our benevolent creator to reward you i the way that he knows best. You may wish to bring the following blog to the attention of your many readers: http://haramainrecordings.blogspot.com - another of my favourite site which keeps me in touch as much as is it possible with the city of the noble prophet (PBUH) and its its noble and wonderful residents.
