Eid’l Adha Gathering PDF Print E-mail

By: Muhammad Bani

WAMY-Philippines has sponsored a gathering for the Muslims as part of their Eidul Adha celebration held last November 28, 2009 in Mamitua Saber Technology and Research Center in MSU Main, Marawi City.

The said gathering although intended particularly for Muslim reverts was also attended by born Muslims from different tribes, i.e. Maranao, Tausug and Maguindanao. Its main purpose is not just to celebrate the Eidul Adha but also to build a strong brotherhood between the Muslim reverts and born Muslims.
Mindamera Macarambon Saber gave the opening remarks. It was followed by a lecture of Muhammad Bani, who talked about the significance of Yawmu Arafah and Eidul Adha. After his lecture, Dr. Salipada Tamano continued the lecture on importance of Eidul Adha celebration.
In behalf of the Balik Islam, Mrs. Macarambon thanked WAMY for their continuing support to their program and activities. She told them that after this event it will be followed by a series of lectures and programs, Inshaallah.
After the program, lunch was served.


 

Short Stories

This is for you….. And don’t be surprised. It is love….love for the prophet must be greater than from one’s self…In the Day of conquest of Makkah, Abo Qohafa (Father of Abu Bakr) embraced Islam later in his life when he became blind. He was accompanied by Abu Bakr to the prophet to declare his testimony and he made the covenant with the Prophet. Prophet said: O Abu Bakr, why did you not leave your father in his house so we will be the one to visit him. Abu Bakr said: O Prophet! You are the most honored person….and so Abo Qohafa embraced Islam…Abu Bakr cried. They said to him: This is the day of happiness. Your father embraced Islam and he was saved from the hell fire, so what makes you cry?  He said: Because I have wished to see that the one who embraced Islam today is not my father but Abo Talib (uncle of Prophet Muhammad) ..it would make the prophet happier….Glory be to Allah! Abu Bakr’s happiness is not his father’s embracing of Islam but rather the happiness of the prophet … where are we in this kind of friendship?

Qur'an Verse

Never should a believer kill a believer; but (If it so happens) by mistake, (Compensation is due): If one (so) kills a believer, it is ordained that he should free a believing slave, and pay compensation to the deceased's family, unless they remit it freely. If the deceased belonged to a people at war with you, and he was a believer, the freeing of a believing slave (Is enough). If he belonged to a people with whom ye have treaty of Mutual alliance, compensation should be paid to his family, and a believing slave be freed. For those who find this beyond their means, (is prescribed) a fast for two months running: by way of repentance to Allah: for Allah hath all knowledge and all wisdom. - Al-Qur'an, 004.092 (An-Nisa [Women])
