Mothers of Believers radhiyallahu anhum ajmaeen

Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem.

Alhamdulillah there are a great number of threads on the forum, mashaALLAH some are very beneficial, some are pointless and some downright wrong.

I was particulalry impressed by Razors idea to have a thread on the Stories of Saints. MashaALLAH, I thoroughly enjoyed reading those stories and continue to enjoy the new incidents that are being posted up at intervals.

This got me thinking.

IMPORTANCE OF
THE ISLAMIC HEADGEAR

Taj Mahal

Anyone seen the taj mahal?

Whats its full history, what do you think about it.

Do you think it was a waste of money, an empty gesture or is it full of meaning?

[quote]Taj Mahal stands on the bank of River Yamuna, which otherwise serves as a wide moat defending the Great Red Fort of Agra, the center of the Mughal emperors until they moved their capital to Delhi in 1637. It was built by the fifth Mughal emperor, Shah Jahan in 1631 in memory of his second wife, Mumtaz Mahal, a Muslim Persian princess.

Tablighi 40 Day Gasht

Certain people have begun to accuse the gasht done when normal everyday muslims go on jamaat as being a thing of innovation. May ALLAH guide us. The questioners perhaps are unawar of how this sytem works, perhaps they are unaware of what the truth behind this is, perhaps they are exhibiting their ignorance.

Firstly, issue that needs to be addressed is innovation. What is innovation, what isnt? Certain acts in religion which are taken to be PART of religion, which are given a rank of obligation, or compulsion when there is no such rank for it, then such an act is innovation.
