A’ishah also reported that once, when she went on a journey with the Prophet (SAW), she challenged him to a race, and won. Later, when she had gained weight, she raced him again, but this time he won, and told her, “this is for that.” [Sunan Abi Dawud 2578] You have to believe that there is only one God, Allah, who created the entire universe, and that Muhammad (peace be upon him) is his final messenger on earth.

After the sun goes down, he will engage in the Maghrib prayer, remembering God again as the day ends, and then, before retiring for the night, he will go through the Isha prayer, thinking of God’s mercy and forgiveness. Understanding Through Empathy Try to be mindful of Allah throughout your day as you go about your business or chores. Keeping your lips moist with dhikr helps develop an awareness of Allah's might and majesty. Hassan says: "I've endeavoured to write about Islam here in a way that I never have publicly before, not in terms of political identity, but in terms of faith and the ways Islam shapes my day-to-day life and my response to the world around me." For Muslims, Prophet Muhammad is the most revered of all men. He is the last and most authoritative in a line of prophets that includes Moses and Jesus and is believed to have received direct revelations from God through the archangel Gabriel. He Who created Death and Life, that He may try which of you is best in deed; and He is the Exalted in Might, Oft-Forgiving.” [Quran 67-2]The Muslim leaders of the Congress in the 1960s always called upon the Muslims to become the part of the national mainstream. In their writing and speeches, they invoked symbols such as the Taj Mahal and/or individuals such as Mughal ruler Akbar to highlight the expected role of an ideal Muslim in India. No one, however, emphasised the active participation of common Muslims in electoral politics as a Muslim contribution. The electoral compulsion of the Congress actually forced them to describe Muslim presence strictly in terms of a memory of a royal Muslim past. Avoid associating yourself with any sect in Islam. Allah and His Prophet command us to be united. Therefore, Muslims should only obey Allah and His Prophet and avoid bid'ah (innovation in religious matters). If the Allah or the Prophet didn't command or do an action, don't do it. It's this poetic force, blended with the directness of a journalist, that Hassan now drips and drizzles throughout his new book, written as a collection of 19 deeply introspective personal essays. The outlook of every Muslim is balanced between the hope of Allah's mercy for our sins and fear of incurring His punishment. Representation is important for Hassan, for his nephews - to whom he dedicates the book - and so he takes matters into his own hands.

A true Muslim husband emulates the Prophet’s practice in every matter. If offended by his wife’s behavior and resorted to take action against her, he never forgets to follow the Prophet’s teaching in circumstances like this, and therefore dislikes beating his wife. For he knows that the Prophet himself very much disliked the beating of wives. In collection of Abu Da’ud, he is reported to have said: Dress to express your faith and identify yourself as a Muslim. Most Muslims dress modestly, but the style of dress varies greatly by school of thought and by region. Whatever your circumstances, dress in a way that expresses your religious belief and fulfills the requirements for hijab. [6] X Research source It's in this Ode to Elliot Alderson where Hassan discusses the limited onscreen representation he saw growing up, a combination of Osama bin Laden in the news and the "hairy tour guide", Omid Djalili's character Gad Hassan, that played up to the racist narrative in the popular 1999 Hollywood film The Mummy. Ashley Kingham, a fellow New Zealander also at the launch, said Hassan had described the society they had both grown up in perfectly. The book, he says, was relatable, not just to Muslims or New Zealanders or to Muslim-New Zealanders, but to everyone.Allocate time each day for supplicating to Allah (making dua), for example after each fardh salah and after Tahajjud. Ask for anything that you may desire and the prayer of the believer will surely be heard and answered in the way that is best for you. The White House is working on a strategy to combat Islamophobia.
