Why I Love My Hijab.

The reason why I love Hijab, is, to be honest,
Is because it guards my beauty and keeps me modest.
I never receive evil stares and remarks,
And am respected for not what I look like,
But rather what is in my heart.

Allah is most Merciful to all of His Creation,
And He commanded us women to observe Hijab for pure liberation.
Liberation from all of the things that disease women today,
From anorexia, buleima and low self-esteem,
An obsession with beauty that plagues all,
From old women to teens.

In short skirts and blouses revealing their bodies for all men to see,
Knowing their only goal in life is to attract and to please.
NO! But Allah did not want this for us,
To live lives so vain and so full of lust.

He (SWT) is sooo merciful to us, yet we are so disobedient,
He guides us to the good, yet we rush towards the evil
Which is why sisters everywhere are dropping Hijab,
Only because of fear, desires and other worldly reasons.

Caving into the pressures of the western society,
Who claim they are oppressed and need to be liberated immediately!

But Sisters!
We are not oppressed, we are not abused!
We are NOT inferior and nor are we confused!
No actually they are the oppressed and we are the free.

We are modest women who chose to cover for Allah,
No matter what time we live in,
No matter what new trend or law.
Our Hijab does not change,
Our firm determination does not weaken,
And we will not be affected by the opinions of mere people,
Cause its Allah's Pleasure we're seekin'!

So Sisters, let's stay firm,
And keep up with our Hijab,
We are the most beautiful role models for the Ummah,
As well as for all of mankind.

We are shining pearls,
Enclosed inside our shells,
And we should refuse to reveal our beauty,
If we desire the gardens of Jannah,
And not the severe punishment in Hell.

Sisters, let's say it with up-most sincerity and dedication:

I love Hijab, I love My Lord and I love My deen,
and all thanks are to Him, and only Him, and Most High and Great is He!!

Allahu Akbar!!

God in the Bible and the Quran




The presentation of God in the scripture has to be the most important asset for the reader of these divine books. Any distortion of the image of God in any of these books has to represent a distortion of the claimed scriptural texts as God has special qualities that canot be denied, distorted, degraded or damged by human intervention. While some passages of the Bible and the Quran agree on the same qualities of God, there are some passages in the Bible that totaly distort God and His qualities when compared with the Quran. We will present here both groups of qualities that agree and the others that disagree. Let us start with what the Bible and the Quran agree about regarding God.

AGREE........


BIBLE:   RE : Worshipping Human Beings "In Lystra there sat a man crippled in his feet, who was lame from birth and had never walked. He listen to Paul as he was speaking. Paul looked directly at him, saw that he had faith to be healed and called out, "Stand up on your feet!" at that, the man jumped up and began to walk.
When the crowd saw what Paul had done, they shouted in the Lycaonian language, "The gods have come down to us in human form!" Barnabas they called Zeus, and Paul they called Hermes because he was the chief speaker." .................................................
Acts 14:8-12

Qur'an: RE :Worshipping Human Beings
[ 9:31] They have set up their religious leaders and scholars
as lords, instead of GOD. Others deified the Messiah, son
of Mary. They were all commanded to worship only one god.
There is no god except He. Be He glorified, high above having
any partners. 
BIBLE:  RE :Worshiping Angels
"Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you for the prize." 
Colossians 2:18
Qur'an: RE :Worshiping Angels
[ 3:80] Nor would he command you to idolize the angels
and the prophets as lords. Would he exhort you to disbelieve
after becoming submitters? 
[34:40] On the day when He summons them all, He
will say to the angels, "Did these people worship you?"
BIBLE:  RE :Worshipping NO Other Gods

"So Jacob said to his household and to all who were with him, "Get rid of the foreign gods you have with you, and purify yourselves and change your clothes." 

Genesis 35:2 

Qur'an: RE :Worshipping 
NO Other Gods [2:133] Had you witnessed Jacob on his death bed; he said to his children, "What will you worship after I die?" They said, "We will worship your god; the god of your fathers Abraham, Ismail, and Isaac; the one god. To Him we are submitters."
