Images from Israeli Terrorist attack on Ghazza

2009-09-11T05:17:00.000-07:00

Over 200 Tons of bombs. Of course no innocent civilians were targeted, These Zionist Pigs deserve thousands of Martyrdom ("suicide") attacks.

Please encourage your Imams to make Qunoot for the Muslims in Ghazza.

O GOD! Send your rage upon the Zionist pigs - the scum of the earth - as well as those Idolic "Muslim" Rulers who prevent the Muslims from waging Jihad and helping their brothers. O Allah hear our call! O Allah exact revenge on Husni "La" Mubarak, the Traitor of the two Holy Mosques - Abdul-Kalb Aal As-Salool, and all others who have acted traitorously to this religion! O Allah guide the Ummah of Muhammad to raise the flag of Jihad. O Allah! have mercy on our oppressed brothers and sisters in Ghazza and everywhere else. O Allah! Guide Hamas to leave the dirty games of politics, democracy and compromise and to rise and wage Jihad against Your enemies! O Allah guide them to establish the Sharia! O Allah! Establish the Islamic State of Iraq and strengthen them, that it may be the launching pad for Jihad against the Jews.

Verify NADRA CNIC Through SMS

2009-09-10T00:37:00.000-07:00

In the race of technology, NADRA hits another achievement while it launches a very useful service for verifying CNIC details. Now you don’t need to visit NADRA offices to get someone’s details verified or to get some details regarding this..

It has become very easy now to verify anyone if you are going to have dealing or are hiring him/her.

Simply verify their CNIC by sending an SMS to 7000.

Write CNIC Number without dashes and send it to 7000. In response you will get name and father’s name of that particular CNIC number holder (in urdu fonts).

Example: write 3740149922830 and send to 7000

Charges: Rs. 10 plus tax per Message (Around Rs. 12 including taxes)

At the moment this service is available for Mobilink, Telenor and Waridcustomers while Ufone and Zong are in process to get listed.

One may think that this is a privacy loop hole, however, as it does not provide any contact details of the CNIC holder and only reveals the name and father’s name – so it is acceptable and helpful in many means..

Talking about benefits, this service will really help the public in there general as well as special matters as you can easily verify someone’s details to check the scam or fake ones, these credentials can really help out in business deals as well as personal contracts where you need to be sure about the real person.

This service will also be helpful to law-enforcement agencies as they may be able to get more details as compared to public because there is another special number for them. They can get CNIC information by sending the number at 7001.

Subscribers will get details through cellular companies which would collect data in real time communication from NADRA National Data Warehouse. This is thought be a secure data transfer as service numbers are labeled as “Special Numbers”.

NADRA is also supporting law-enforcement agencies and govt. to implement and cope up with prevailing law and order situation. This step is regarded as a good initiative as it will support telecom infrastructure as a big advancement and will led others to bring these kinda changes and revolutions. A lot of thing are on their way but still a BIG job is to be done

Sony Ericsson Xperia Pureness Preview

2009-09-10T00:31:00.000-07:00

Presumably announced to a fanfare of whale song and the whiff of joss-sticks, this preview of the Sony Ericsson Xperia Pureness shows an intriguing device combining classic Sony Ericsson design with transparent panels to make a very distinctive looking phone.

The full horror of the press release can really only be experience by reading the full thing:

Today at a business update meeting, Sony Ericsson showed the new Xperia™ Pureness, a simple design phone which brings together beautiful craftsmanship and the concept of “talk, text, time - a holiday from technology”. The Xperia™ Pureness will be officially launched in November 2009 through selected retail distribution channels in key cities around the world.

The handset was shown to media attending an event to launch Sony Ericsson’s new brand direction where the company also confirmed its alignment under the Sony make.believe brand message.

15. The Prophet's Last Sermon

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful This sermon was delivered on the ninth day of Dhul Hijah, 10 A.H. (632 A.D.) in the valley of Mount Arafat . The contents of the message were collected from different narrations, and there are other parts to it that are not mentioned here. This sermon still needs the authenticity of all of its parts to be checked.

"O People, lend me an attentive ear, for I know not whether, after this year, I shall ever be amongst you again. Therefore, listen to what I am saying to you very carefully and take these words to those who could not be present today.

O People, just as you regard this month, this day, this city as sacred, so regard the life and property of every Muslim as a sacred trust. Return the goods entrusted to you to their rightful owners. Hurt no one so that no one may hurt you. Remember that you will indeed meet your Lord, and that He will indeed reckon your deeds. Allah has forbidden you to take interest, therefore, all interest obligations shall henceforth be waived.. Your capital, however, is yours to keep. You will neither inflict nor suffer inequity. Allah has judged that there shall be no interest and that all interest due to Abbas bin Abdul-Muttalib (the prophet's uncle) shall henceforth be waived.

Every right arising out of homicide in pre-Islamic days is henceforth waived and the first such right I waive is that arising from the murder of Rabiyah bin Al-Harith (relative of the prophet). O Men, the unbelievers indulge in tampering with the calendar in order to make permissible that which Allah forbade, and to forbid that which Allah had made permissible. With Allah the months are twelve; four of them are holy; three of these are successive and one occurs singly between the months of Jumadah and Shaaban. Beware of Satan, for the safety of your religion. He has lost all hope that he will ever be able to lead you astray in big things, so beware of following him in small things.

O People, it is true that you have certain right with regard to your women, but they also have rights over you. If they abide by your right then to them belongs the right to be fed and clothed in kindness. Do treat your women well and be kind to them for they are your partners and committed helpers. And it is your right that they do not make friends with any one of whom you do not approve, as well as never commit adultery.

O People, listen to me in earnest, worship Allah, say your five daily prayers, fast during the month of Ramadhan, and give your wealth in zakat. Perform Hajj if you can afford to. All mankind is from Adam and Eve, an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab, nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over a black, nor a black has any superiority over white except by piety and good action. Learn that every Muslim is the brother of another Muslim, and that Muslims constitute one brotherhood. Nothing shall be legitimate to a Muslim which belongs to a fellow Muslim unless it was given freely and willingly. Do not, therefore, do injustice to your selves.

Remember, one day you will appear before Allah and answer for your deeds. So beware, do not stray from the path of righteousness after I am gone.

O People, no prophet or apostle will come after me and no new faith will be born. Reason well, therefore, O People, and understand my words which I convey to you. I leave behind me two things, the Quran and my example, the Sunnah, and if you follow these you will never go astray.

All those who listen to me shall pass on my words to others, and those to others again; and may the last ones understand my words better that those who listen to me directly. Be my witness O Allah, that I have conveyed Your message to Your people."

Alahumma infa`ni bima `allamtani wa `allamni ma yanfa`uni!

OH ALLAH! Make useful for me what You taught me

and teach me knowledge that will be useful to me! (Aameen)

DUA - E - RAMZAN

2009-09-04T19:55:00.000-07:00

Bismiallah ar rahman nir raheem

Once Moosa (Alyahis Salam) asked Allah Subhaana'O'Ta'ala:

Oh Allah! You have granted me the honor and privilege of talking to you directly, Have you given this privilege to any other person?

Allah Ta'ala replied, Oh Moosa, during the last period I am going to send an Ummat, who will be the Ummat of Mohammed (Salal Lahu Alayhi Wasalam) with dry lips, parched tongues, emaciated body with eyes sunken deep into their sockets, with livers dry and stomachs suffering the pangs of hunger.

When this Ummat will call out to me (in dua), they will be much much closer to me than you. Oh Moosa, while you speak to me there are 70,000 veils between you and me but at the time of iftaar there will not be a single veil between me and the fasting Ummati of Mohammed (Salal Lahu Alayhi Wasalam). Oh Moosa, I have taken upon myself the responsibility that at the time of iftaar I will never refuse the dua of a fasting person!

Please spread this Hadith as much as possible.

Make most of this holy month and pray for forgiveness.

Please do remember me in your prayers.

Read Durrod-e-shareef at the beginning and end of Dua:

Allahumma rabbana ataiyna fidduniya hasnatoun wa fil aghiratoun hasnatoun waqina azabun naar, waqina azabun khabar, waqina azabun hashr.

(Whoever recites this dua, Allah (s.w.t) will assist him in repaying his debt even though it may be the size of Mount Sabir)
