Why didn't our Lord address His Prophet Muhammad by his name, saying "Muhammad," in the Qur'an as He called other prophets? We see Him saying what can be translated as:
• Adam, dwell, you and your spouse, in Jannah.
• Noah, disembark with peace from Us and blessings upon you.
• Abraham, you have indeed fulfilled the vision.
• Moses, I am Allah.
• Jesus, I am taking you back and raising you to Me.
• Zachariah, We give you good tidings of a boy.
• Yahya, hold on the Scripture firmly.

Dear readers,
Tomorrow, Friday, is the day of Ashura. Fasting this day -if Allah accepts it- atones the sins of the year before. Fasting Friday alone is not prohibited if it is Ashura.
- Do not neglect fasting it due to a bad habit like smoking, and then miss the grand blessing of eternal bliss.
- Do not miss fasting it for any excuse like having an exam\ meeting\ special occasion. The prophet, may Allah's Peace and Blessings be upon him, was the head of a state, the leader of an army, a teacher for the people, facing the enemies' ploys, a provider for his family, a husband, a father and a nurturer. All this did not stop him from fasting these days and benefiting from these seasons.
- Sisters who have an excuse preventing them from fasting it: win the reward of fasting it by encouraging others to do so, as whoever guides (others) to an act of goodness, will have a reward similar to that of its doer.
- Do not neglect fasting it saying: "I fasted Arafa, and that forgives the year before and the year after, so I am still within that two-year period". What guarantees that Allah has accepted your previous fasting? Acceptance of fasting those days is bond by rules that must be met for the sins to be forgiven.
"...He aid, 'Surely Allah only accepts from those who are pious.'", and a from of piety is to glorify those days and seek their reward.
A number of scholars stated that committing major sins prevents the forgiving of sins on the days of Arafa and Ashura, supported by the Hadith:
"The five [daily] prayers, Friday to Friday and Ramadan to Ramadan make atonement for what has happened since the previous one when major sins have been avoided.”
One of the major sins that a lot of us are not aware of are those of the heart, like thinking ill of Allah, especially with the increase in temptations, atrocities and painful events in the Ummah and in ourselves, coupled with our a lack of understanding that this worldly life is one of trials, not of reward! So some start thinking ill of their Lord, and hate some of what Allah has decreed or instated.
Dear blessed reader, we are all in need of Allah's Mercy, thus do not miss this grand reward and these stations that Allah has placed as a mercy for us so that we cleanse our hearts and souls from their sins.
May Allah help us fast the day of Ashura, and accept from us all!
I truly long to see Allah...

"We often find ourselves engaged in endless discussions about the bleak state of our Ummah and rarely, if ever, offer hope for improvement. This leaves our audiences disheartened and contributes to a generation of frustrated individuals who struggle to move toward reform and change."

Do not forget to include your brethren in Jenin in your Duas (supplications).
O Allah, save our brothers and sisters in Jenin from the plots of their enemies.
O Allah, spare us from being among those who failed them, and use us to champion the oppressed and honor Islam.
O Allah, they are weak, so strengthen them; they are besieged, so relieve them of distress. By Your grace, appoint for them a protector and a helper.
Reform and change have been a duty for every Muslim since the Qur'an descended on Mohammad (peace & blessings of Allah upon him):
[Arise and Warn. Al-Muddather 2]
The call to reform and change preceded the call to prayer by ten years, the call to Zakat and fasting by fifteen years, and the call to Hajj by eighteen years.

Yet, Allah only addresses our beloved Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah upon him, saying what can be translated as:
• Prophet, indeed We have sent you as a witness, a bearer of good news, and a warner.
• Messenger, let not those who hasten into disbelief grieve you.
He addressed him by his attributes, saying what can be translated as:
• You enveloped in your mantle, stand up and warn!
• You wrapped in a cloak, arise [to pray] the night, except for a little!
Whenever his name was mentioned, He associates it, exalted be He, with the attributes of prophethood:
• Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.
• Thus Muhammad is no more than a messenger before whom messengers have passed on. Then will it be that if he dies or gets killed you will turn on your heels?
Then come the Ayahs in which our Lord describes the status of our Prophet, clarifying how He acclaims...
• The purity of his mind in: "Your companion has not gone astray, nor has he been deluded."
• The purity of his sight in: "The sight did not swerve, nor did it transgress."
• The purity of his truthfulness in: "Nor does he speak from out of whim."
• The purity of his teacher in: "It is not but a revelation sent down to him, taught to him by [an angel] of mighty power."
• The purity of his heart in: "Did We not expand your chest?"
• The purity of his virtuousness in: "And We lifted from you your burden."
• The purity of his remembrance in: "And We have raised high for you your remembrance."
• The purity of his forbearance in: "And very truly, you are of a great moral character."
The scholar Ar-Razi said in his interpretation book, "Mafateeh Al-Ghayb" that Allah granted our Prophet two of His very Own attributes:compassion and mercy (Ra'uuf Raheem).
No prophet before him received these attributes as you see them in His saying what can be translated as: "Very truly, there has come to you a messenger from among yourselves, concerned over your suffering, anxious over you; towards the believers he is compassionate, bestowing mercy.” (Qur’an Translated Meaning – At-Tawbah 128)
Allah, bestow blessings upon the perfect Prophet, the seal of Prophets, Muhammad, the best of all mankind.
The pious scholars of the Ummah are the inheritors of 14 centuries of knowledge, and the best candidates to lead it to its glory...

Dear Readers,
We know that you are eagerly awaiting your Eid present from us, and this Al-Adha Eid, we will not disappoint you!
Your gift is a new series by Professor Salah Soltan, based on his captivating and highly relevant book, "Surat Al-Kahf: Methodologies of Reform and Change." The first part will be published on the day of Eid, with subsequent parts released every Saturday.
The series explores the profound question: Does Islam demand that we charge forward with the unwavering strength of Omar Ibn Al-Khattab, fearlessly promoting what is right and denouncing what is wrong, in every situation? Can we summon Omar’s unparalleled courage and strength, despite the vast expanse of 14 centuries that separate us? How can we act like Omar when, during the time of his rule, Islam controlled the civilized world, while today Islam finds itself besieged from every angle?
This is an Eid gift like no other, crafted exclusively for you, our esteemed readers.
