Teacher: What are you drawing?

Child: A picture of God.

Teacher: No one knows what God looks like.

Child: They will in a minute.

Doing the right thing for the wrong reason is like not having done it at all.

Allah's Apostle said, "The reward of deeds depends upon the intention and every person will get the reward according to what he has intended. So whoever emigrated for Allah and His Apostle, then his emigration was for Allah and His Apostle. And whoever emigrated for worldly benefits or for a woman to marry, his emigration was for what he emigrated for."

(Bukhari Volume 1, Book 2, Number 52)

Ash-Shaafi’ee, may Allaah have mercy on him, said: “Had Allaah not sent down aproof to His creation other than this surah (chapter), it would have been sufficient for them.”Al-Bukhaaree, may Allaah have mercy on him, said: “Chapter: Knowledge comesbefore speech and action.”The proof for this is Allaah’s saying:

So know that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allaah, and seekforgiveness for your sins.”

[Surah Muhammad: 19] So He began by mentioningknowledge before speech and action.
 

The prophet Muhammad (SAW) said:

"I and the person who looks after an orphan and provides for him, will be in Paradise like this"
*putting his index & middle fingers together*

and so i decided to learn to make eggless cake and to generally be more careful with my usage of eggs.

coz free range isnt cheap.

but it isnt about the price. its abt the fact that because eggs became so cheap (with disastrous consequences and effects) we have become ungrateful of eggs and use too much (bit like milk but thats another story coz im addicted to milk) and dont even think about our consumption.

David and Wilson were lost in desert...they were dying of thirst when
they came upon an oasis, and there was a Mosque.

David to Wilson:
"Look there is a mosque, lets pretend we are muslims, otherwise we'll
not get any food or water...I am going to call myself 'Ahmad". Willson
refused to change his name and said:
"my name is Wilson and i will never pretend to be other than what I am!"
...
The Imam of mosque recieved both well and asked their names...

David:
i am Ahmad

Wilson:
I am Wilson

Imam turned to his helpers and said:
"bring some food for Willson only"
