Ramadan: Marks A Most Important Event
Contributor: Imam Muhammad Harisuddin
With Allah's Name, The Merciful Benefactor, The Merciful Redeemer
Ramadan is the Month in which was sent down the Qur'an....Dear Muslims, as
we enter the Month of Ramadan, I advise you as I advise myself, don't underestimate the importance of this great month in the history of humanity. Some of you
may disagree but, I believe that Ramadan commemorates the second most important event in the life of mankind on this earth. I believe the first great event is
pointed to in HQ 2: 30-31 when Allah (swt) announces to the angels that I will
create a Khalifah fil Ard (ruler in the earth). (HQ 2:185)
He taught Our Father Adam the Nature of all things (placed in Adam all human
possibilities). These human possibilities, first given to Adam, included the
possibilities for both good and evil and this even frightened the angels who said:
"what are you creating one to create mischief and shed blood"? Allah (swt) then
told them about the second part of His plan for His new ruler in the earth. He
said to them, that when He has shaped our souls in due proportion and breathed
into it "of my spirit," then you bow down! IWDM (ra) describes this shaping of the
human soul in his explanation of PM(saw)'s Ascension where He is shown as
being taken up into the seven level of the heavens . He said that the Prophets
who were visited on the various levels represents the "Prophets of the Development!" Each prophet represents a step toward completing the "due proportion"
of the human soul mentioned to the angels by Allah (swt). Imam Warith Deen
Mohammed (ra) stated further that Prophet Muhammad (saw) visiting other
prophets at their various levels is symbolic of His reconciliation of the works of
the earlier prophets. Of course, we recall that Allah (swt) said to the angels and
when He has shaped the Khalifah in due proportion and breathed into him of His
spirit, then the angels (creation) is to make obeisance to him.
Ramadan commemorates the fulfillment of step in Allah's promise made at the
onset when He said, "I will create a vicegerent!” By now, we have the Aql
(human intellect), freewill, and a soul shaped in due proportion. Those things
represent to the first of the two most important events in the history of humanity.
The second most important event is considered by some to be more important
the event just described. I call this event, [the sending down of the Qur'an to
Prophet Muhammad (saw)], commemorated in this Month of Ramadan, the second most important because if man's creation and development had not occurred then there'd be no need for the Qur'an being sent down!
HADITH OF THE MONTH:
Abu Hurairah (May Allah be
pleased with him) reported: The
Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said,
“There are two statements that are
light for the tongue to remember,
heavy in the Scales and are dear to
the Merciful: ‘Subhan-Allahi wa bihamdihi, Subhan-Allahil-Azim [Glory
be to Allah and His is the praise,
(and) Allah, the Greatest is free
from imperfection)’.”
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]
AYAT OF THE MONTH:
And We said, "O Adam,
dwell, you and your
wife, in Paradise and eat
therefrom in [ease and]
abundance from wherever
you will. But do not
approach this tree, lest you
be among the
wrongdoers.”

Ramadan: Marks A Most Important Event

Dear readers, the Holy Qur'an is the pure, undiluted word of G-d(Allah) and when these words come into the purified human heart, it produces the kind of spirit in the human soul that Allah (swt) promised the angels when He announced, I will make a Khalifah Fil Ard (ruler in the earth). The promise of Allah is completed. It was completed in the
person, in the human person, Mohammed Ibn Abdullah (better known as Prophet Mohammed (saw). He is a mercy
from Allah (swt) to all the worlds (Rahmati-lil-alameen). and Allah(swt) says of him in His Book, HQ 33:21...Ye have
indeed in the Messenger of Allah, a beautiful pattern of conduct, for anyone whose hope is in G-d and the Final Day;
and who engages much in the praise of G-d!
Ramadan Reflections: Ramadan Greeting
Contributor: Imam Tariq Najee-ullah
During Ramadan, we have a customary greeting. Ramadan Mubarak! When we greet, some respond Ramadan
Kareem. Others respond Ramadan Mubarak. When we study Qur'an, we find nothing in the Qur'an associating
Ramadan with Kareem. Even when we examine the language of Muhammad the Prophet, we don't find anything
associating the word Ramadan with Kareem. We find in his language "Sharun Mubarak" meaning a month with many
blessings. In the Qur'an, we find "the Night of Power" therein descend the angels and the spirit, sending blessings.
Also in the Qur'an, we find "Sharu Ramadan alathee unzila fehil Qur'an" meaning The Month of Ramadan is the
month that the Qur'an was revealed or sent down as a blessing to mankind.
Allah tells us that the best response is one that is equal or better. We know that saying Kareem is just saying we are
noble. Allah tells us in the Qur'an that all the children of Adam are created honorable. We are all Kareem.
Where do we get the language from, "Ramadan Kareem?" We don't find it in the Qur'an or in the well-known,
mashroor hadith of Muhammad the Prophet. We find the emphasis being on the blessings of Ramadan. So we
believe the proper response is Ramadan Mubarak.
So in this month, we don't emphasize kareem. We are all kareem. What we need in this excellent and blessed month
is more blessings. Don't wish us kareem. We need all of the great blessings of Allah. We need the blessing of our
sins to be forgiven. We want to blessed with a better spirit to serve G-d. To be a better Muslim, better person, better
student, better engineer, better scientist, better chef, better worker, better businessman, better professional, better
teacher, better lawyer, better doctor, better husband, better wife, better father, mother, brother, sister, son, or
daughter. We need the blessings to be a better human being. So we say "Ramadan Mubarak!" And when you give
that back equally, you say "Ramadan Mubarak!" Alhamdulillah!

Tips for Ramadan
Based on commentary of Imam W. D. Mohammed
Sahoor (Early Morning Meal):
We should wake up and eat a small meal before Fajr prayer. The verse eat or drink until the white thread is distinct
from the black thread does not mean eating until sunrise. We are to eat until about 10 minutes before the athaan of
Fajr. If we have not made our intention to fast the night before, we should make our intention to fast before Fajr. The
du'a in this booklet is best, since you make the du'a to break the fast and your intention to fast the next day in the
same prayer.
Fasting:
Allah says in Hadith Qudsi "Fasting is Mine and I alone will reward for it." Fasting is not to lose weight, slim down, or
for any other reason except to obey G-d.
Iftar (Breaking the fast):
It is the sunnah of Prophet Muhammad (SAWS) to break the fast with water and an odd number of dates. If you do
not have dates, some other fruit is best to break the fast. We do not break the fast with potato chips, fast food, or a
large meal. Just some water and a small bit of fruit to satisfy the hunger. Then we immediately make the Maghrib
prayer. After Maghrib, we hurry to our Iftar meal. It is good to invite Muslims to our homes or come out to the Masjid
for Iftar. This builds our Ramadan spirit, our spirit of brotherhood, and our shared faith in G-d.
Eating during Ramadan:
"We should eat the meal of a poor person during Ramadan. We are not to stuff ourselves and eat the most expensive cuts of meat and luxurious meals in this month." "We should increase in our giving of charity in this month." "We
should increase in our good deeds this month.
Excerpts from the Adult Teachings of W. D. Muhammad, Ramadan section
Let's Not Fall Victim to the Schemes of Shaitan
Contributor: Anees S. Fardán
In the Health and Wellness Committee, we are basing our activities on Six Components of Wellness: Physical,
Intellectual, Emotional, Occupational, Social, and Spiritual. We know that Allah has created the human being in this
physical world and has given us the task to work on our internal make-up to find a balance that will allow us success
in the world.
"Allah will not change the condition of a people until they change the condition of their own souls/disposition/selves."
In one of our previous articles it was shared, "How you see the problem, is the problem!" and I'd like to reiterate this
relating to our reaction to the social events that continue to occur and challenge our need for moral balance. We
must be firm in our goodness and work hard to enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong. Just because people are
engaged in wrong doing, don't mean we have to get emotionally engaged in that wrong. The more energy you put
towards a thing the more power you give to that thing. Spending hours going over how bad a situation, person, thing
or condition is. Asking the question, "Why?" is detrimental to your soul.
Our Imam W. D. Mohammed said we need to, "Correct our perception of the world." At the time he was telling us to
stop our focus on racism and its effects on us and develop a focus on business development, changing our
mind-sets to building true community life and staying focused on our goals and aspirations.

The killing of African Americans by police and those frightened by our presence; homosexuality and the frequent
display of their inappropriate behaviors on television; the disrespect of President Obama and the refusal of Congress
to work with him; the greater divide between the wealthy, the shrinking middle-class and the poor; the increasing
sense of "us against them" that seems to define our present times and increase our fears about people who are
different from us. All these perceptions and consequent emotions continue to feed our negativities and force upon us
hurts, hatred, anger, despair and other psychologically discouraging attitudes.
You gotta ask, "Isn't this one of the schemes of shaitan (satan)?" According to scripture, the job of shaitan is to keep
our minds, hearts, base-desires and spirit (the components of the soul) pre-occupied with worldly concerns. The
enemy of man wants to keep us so pre-occupied with the negativities of life, that we lose the proper spirit and
attitude of service, humility, gratitude, and praise of the Almighty. Our Imam W. D. Mohammed taught us that you
don't fight shaitan directly, but through his schemes. We have the Quran, the recorded character of Prophet
Muhammad(PBUH) as an example of how to apply revelations and a community of people striving to achieve the
straight and even path. So, we have to be careful not to fall into the same traps as average Americans or those
without faith.
It is absolutely critical that we support each other in establishing and maintaining strong community life. To break this
down, we have to clearly see the difference between complaining and being a problem-solver.
A complainer is a person who can easily see what is wrong with a situation, a person, a thing or a condition. They
use most of their energy scrutinizing all that is not right, how unfair things are, and why they believe it's unfair, but
put very little effort into taking the responsibility to make the change. They really feel defeated, oppressed or too
weak to be able to do anything about it. They blame outside sources for their condition. They see life as a "suffering"
and try to cope with it.
A problem-solver on the other hand, is a person who is able to S.W.O.T. the situation, person, thing or condition and
honestly look at what need to be changed within him/herself to move forward and create progress. To S.W.O.T. is to
look at the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats that are presented in a situation, person, thing or condition; analyze each and share the results in a way that clarifies and takes away the obstacles we are facing. They
take responsibility for their condition. They see life as a struggle and embrace it.
To do this takes practice and focus, because we have been trained for the most part to just react to things. Reacting
is spontaneous, without much thought, instinctual. A problem-solver is focused on using the S.W.O.T. process and is
therefore responding and getting long-lasting results.
We have the Quran and the life example of Prophet Mohammed (PBUH), so let's work hard at finding peace within
and sharing it with those closest to us. Let's work hard not to complain, find fault with or in one another, be engulfed
in a spirit of discouragement, despair and hopelessness. Let's rather be a problem-solver, seek solutions in all 6 areas of wellness and embrace a spirit of encouragement, achievement and a strong sense of excellence in ourselves,
family and community. We have what it takes to "Remake this World" so let's bring it into reality.

The Challenge of Fulfilling Work and Family Responsibilities
Contributor: W. Muhsinah Abdullah
Today, women all around the world have become active
participants in the global workforce. This is also true of
talented and astute Muslimahs who possess ─ or are in
the process of acquiring ─ the academic and technical
skills needed to maintain full or part-time jobs or careers
outside the home. In addition to this group are those
women who possess the entrepreneurial savvy to establish successful home-based businesses of their own. As
believers, these working Muslimahs also understand the
importance of marriage and family life and the role it
plays, or will play, in their decision to engage in income
producing activities ─ inside or outside the home.
"And among His signs is this: That He created mates for
you from yourselves that you may find rest, peace of
mind in them, and He ordained between you love and
mercy. Lo, herein indeed are signs for people who reflect." [Noble Quran 30:21]
According to a World Bank report (2013), females make
up about 40 - 50 percent of the world’s labor force. Women in Middle Eastern countries, however, average about
half this number due to the legal and social barriers in
these areas. Nevertheless, many of them do generate
income from home-based businesses in order to augment
the family income. The female workforce in Asia, in general, and in some African countries, fare much better in
terms of the percentage of women involved in the workforce (according to the latest economic reports) and fall in
the upper spectrum of world labor statistics for women.
Western countries are closer to the 50 percent range for
women in the overall global workforce. The irony is that in
many countries there are a higher number of females
than males obtaining college degrees, yet fewer participate in the workforce.
Considering the amount of time and energy expended in
simply maintaining a balanced home and family life, it is
admirable that women are also able to engage in full or
part-time income-generating activities. In fact, today
many women find themselves in this position due to the
current economy, financial constraints, a personal desire
to pursue a career outside the home, or all of the
aformentioned. In fact, almost half the women in the
workforce in America are wives and/or mothers. Untold
numbers of Muslimahs are among these.
Now ten years into retirement, this Muslimah still recalls
the sometimes daunting task of juggling the requirements
of employment and family life, and having one of these
necessities get the short end of the stick. This was not
the usual outcome, Alhamdullilah; however, such situations did occur more often than I would have liked, as is
the case with many working Muslimahs who also have
families and homes to which they are committed.
Although Muslimahs regard their dual role of wife and
mother as their number one priority in life, Alhamdullilah,
and they understand the significance of their charge in
ensuring the perpetuation of a strong and balanced ummat, there is no edict or injunction in Islam that forbids a
Muslimah from seeking employment outside the home,
particularly when it serves the best interest of her family
at any given point in time, she and her spouse are in harmony with this decision, and it is in keeping with the prescriptions of Islam, subhanallah. World statistics show
that Muslimahs the world over are active participants in
the labor force.
Let us recall that Khadijah bint Kulaywid (ra) assumed
control of her father’s business following his death. A
wise and respected business woman, her skills and discretion in effecting profitable business transactions and
employing the services of numerous skilled agents who
bargained on her behalf resulted in her becoming one of
the most successful businesspersons among her people
at that time. Lady Khadijah (ra) was actively engaged in
trade during her previous marriages, as well as after her
marriage to Prophet Muhammad (saw). She also had
several children at the time and was able to fulfill her parenting and wifely duties while carrying on a profitable
business.
It is reported that Saudah bint Zam'ah, the second wife of
Prophet Muhammad’s (saw), also contributed to the
economy in her time; she earned a substantive income
from her leather works business.
A key point regarding married women working outside the
home is that a consensus – a mutual understanding with
one’s mate – regarding employment outside the home,
should be sought as the primary responsibilities of maintaining the home is usually assumed by the mother. If a
woman is working prior to marriage or decides to do so
afterwards, the ramifications should be explored and
agreed upon by the believers beforhand. The spouse
and children should also be supportive of a Muslimah
who works full or part-time outside the home and earns
additional income that benefits the family as a whole. Although Muslim wives are not required to contribute to the
family financially, in such situations, ‘good will and the
best interest of the whole’ should be the guiding principle,
Alhamdullilah.
Men shall have a benefit from what they earn, and
women shall have a benefit from what they earn.
(4:32)

The Challenge of Fulfilling Work and Family Responsibilities
Article Continued...
A thorough discussion with respect to household duties,
the care and supervision of the children, and financial responsibilities is essential so everyone has a clear understanding and is in agreement with expectations. Neither
spouse wants to feel they have to shoulder an undue
amount of the responsibility of maintaining the family, and
both spouses have to be flexible enough to work through
the inevitable challenges that are bound to occur over
time.
Whether a Muslimah is generating income from within the
home (the computer is a great resource for this) or outside the home, the challenge of maintaining an acceptable degree of order and well-being within the home environment can become quite overwhelming. How can Muslimahs deal with the inherent stress of being a working
mother and wife? How does she successfully balance
the demands of her vocation while simultaneously meeting the needs of her husband and children?
Careful planning is essential whenever we find ourselves
with a variety of complex tasks to accomplish in a timely
manner. It is imperative that husband and wife are of like
mind, in the trenches together, and both committed to
working in the best interest of the family as a whole.
One
Islamic
Internet
site
at
(http://
productivemuslim.com/ ) offered a variety of helpful suggestions. Before listing these, one key factor in maintaining order in the home is to organize, organize, and organize! Brief excerpts from the article follow:
1. Plan Meals Ahead – Families can cut down on time by
planning and preparing some meals ahead of time, and
by

4. Make Prayer a Priority- Whatever your schedule is,
make sure prayer is a priority. If the time of prayer has
started when you get home from work, then pray first before starting your household chores. [Prayer inclines our
heart toward what is right and renews us physically and
mentally.]
5. Schedule Time for Yourself - In the midst of it all, it is
very easy to forget to schedule time for one’s self. This
includes getting adequate sleep, eating a well-balanced
diet, fitting in time for light exercise (like walking) and unwinding with a hobby or simply reading a book. [You can’t
provide water if your own bucket is empty!]
6. Limit Screen Time - Unfortunately, it is all too easy to
waste precious minutes and hours watching TV or scrolling on your PC, tablet, or cellphone. It really is crucial to
utilize that time wisely, given that we don’t have a lot of
down time.
7. Find Reliable Childcare - Finding backup childcare in
advance is key for every working Muslimah. Enlist the
help of another Muslimah or family member who lives
close by. This is helpful even if you work in the home as
you may need a backup plan at short notice.
8. Stay in Touch With Other Mothers- Having good
companionship is extremely important. Get to know other
Muslimahs in the community, particularly those in or near
your area. This provides an opportunity to share ideas
about common parenting issues. There is no other person who will understand you better [or provide more
