Kalimatul Shahadah

Kalimatul Shahadah - "Testification of Faith in Islam" but also connotes, "To bear witness to the Words of Allah (swt)" when we take our Shahadah in Al-Islam the Imam or Sheikh witnessing your Shahadah says, "All of your past sins have been forgiven." Although technically we (the Sheikh, Imam or I) have no knowledge on the statuses of "Unforgiveable Sins" prior to the day. Technically there is a bit of confusion, but a disclaimer is generally not made. Thus, in the Tasbih of Fatima many would often include the Kalimatul Shahadah for this reason supported by Hadiths of other blessings. However, when someone says or leaves a graphic of Baqarah 121 (...the loss is their own), then that is a Kalimatul Shahadah and attestation of Faith in Al Islam, just like "La Ilaha Illa Allah. Muhammadur Rasulullah."
Basically, Kalimatul Shahadah in either way, with Tasbih or different verses of Quran and "remaining" Truths of the Bible are a Kalimatul Shahadah and renewal or reset from previous sins. We had a saying in Tablighi Jumaat about being the first to shake your brother's hand and the last to release and verily the sins of both brothers drop off of the hands in the process. Well with the Kalimatul Shahadah being repeated as often as possible in either form mentioned above it is the catalyst for the departure of the pervious sins or newer ones and again the no-fly zone of the "Unforgiveable Sins" of the past are not ventured into.
However, when we use the Hadith "This Ummah is one body..." that seems to turn the Powerful Gifts of renewal from Allah (swt) above of Kalimatul Shahadah as well as the powerful refuge of Baqarah 121 (...the loss is their own) on its head. We have to be careful this is not declared "wicked" in Proverb below normally translated "the wicked rejoice in evil because it turns things upside down". But it is reading in this translation disconnected with reference to "the wicked" It means "they find amusing, delight in, take joy in, find humorous, rejoice in evil as it turns things upside down".

Jazakum Allahu Khayran.

Because someone decided to go here the hadith above became dangerous and Wazara. The more I look at the Black graphic it technically corrects the Hadith, however it still does not work. Baqarah 121 should prevent that from being a flow. This was being pronounced in Denver and why I do not like it there. I all of these years had been focusing on the bridge being created between illnesses and sins. I saw that in establishing that, it created a problem when combined with the Ummah is one body Wazirun Hadith.

Very little Yeast (my opinions) with some Critically Essential Verses of Quran

Well...it is good that Allah placed Shiqaq here in this set of verses. Would love ridiculously long term Amr on this.

Well...it is good that Allah placed Disgrace here in these set of verses. Would love ridiculously long term Amr on these.

Well...it is good that Allah (swt) revealed, "Thou shalt not blaspheme the Holy Spirit." in addition to "Thou shalt not blaspheme Allah." Because there is a condition there of loyalty to sourcing the Holy Spirit and loyalty to sourcing Allah. This is beneficial to people of Faith because Allah (swt) has provided a condition for seeking increase in Spirit. There are those who would source other humans, animals, jinns, Saints, Prophets, etc. That condition of sourcing only Allah and the Holy Spirit is a Mercy to those who believe against those inventions.

Some ways to go about seeking increase in Spirit from Allah (swt). Allah (swt) said that the Holy Spirit brought down the Revelation...so just in reading the Quran (and remaining Truth in the Kitab) that person is connecting to the Holy Spirit of Allah (swt).

Would love ridiculously long term Amr on these.

These 3 viewed together this way help me to get a comprehensive view of what Allah was saying through these collectively.

Would love ridiculously long term Amr on these.

Here are 2 places where Allah (swt) is literally telling us to tell Ahli Kitab to stand by the Torah, Gospel, Proverbs, Psalms, Quran together in order to please Him. But, cannot instruct them to discard the Kitab.

Would love ridiculously long term Amr on these.

I know that we can cancel negative energy and negative deeds with positive deeds. So please pardon the repeat of those posts. Just trying to keep that energy right. May Allah continue to be refuge. Amin. Nearly 30 years ago, these were the Articles of Faith taught to me. I will list a book reference from back then in Chicago. 

This is literally one of the ways we were taught Al-Islam (we have a few different Orders that I recall). Notice that in the "Dedication" the family that wrote the book are from Palestine. That young man (a son of that family) was a Palestinian. So Palestinians taught the "Original Articles of Faith as in my Travertine graphic". May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon that family and son who had passed away back then.

An Islamic symbol endeared in Morocco, Turkey, etc. References the Hadith when Fatima asked Nabi Muhammad (saws) for a helper and he taught her to use the Tasbih of Faitma.

Verses of the Holy Quran that can be viewed as Miraculous Healing Passages.

Verses of the Holy Quran that can be viewed as Miraculous Healing Passages. If we begin with the Ayats, "Verily Allah proves true Al Haqq by the Kalimat."; and "Verily You are on the Path of Manifest Truth." then we can see how these other Ayats referencing healing can manifest Miraculous changes in one's life. Allah (swt) is basically saying that He can say, "Be" through the Ayats of Quran (as well as Kitab). Please feel free to click any of these graphics to enlarge them if needed.

From here, below are a few of the Healing Ayats of note.

This Ayah confirms that there should be only one heart in your body. That your body should not be hosting another principality seated inside of you with the Spirit Ruh of Allahu Al Qarib. Here Allah (swt) casts out any evil, wicked or rebellious principalities that might be stowed away inside of your body.

Here Allah (swt) Heals blindness and deafness.

Here Allah (swt) Heals insecurity.

Here Allah (swt) Offers an Assortment of Healing for those who believe in Him.

Here Allah (swt) Offers another Assortment of Healing for those who believe in Him; but also Promises Loss after Loss to the Unjust (Zalimun).

Here Allah (swt) Heals blindness again, along with understanding.

Here Allah (swt) can Heal muteness and speech impediments.

Here Allah (swt) again establishes that you are within your body a single unique soul in your creation and in your resurrection. This is a very valuable "Be" from Him. That your body is not hosting another principality or stowaway within. There are only seats for the Ruh of Allah and the Soul He has Given you. If Baith is synonymous with Qiyam (the position of Salaat) then this increases our vigor to make as many positions of Qiyam as we can.

There is no compulsion in religion or life.

The sisters' work really is admirable. They really have great networks that they've created on social media. They seem to be very close knit, as well. Brothers in Islam could stand to take notes on how the sisters are doing things. Selling clothes, hijabs, makeup, getting major endorsements...it really is fascinating to see.

There is nothing wrong with reminding against the haram. We have only been warned from Allah not to make the haram the halal, and not to make the halal the haram. And if Allah (swt) did not specifically say it is haram or if the hadiths sometimes conflict making (same thing) halal and haram something Allah never said Himself was haram, then something that is a grey area of non-judgment should remain so and not be given a judgement by that person. Not everyone can step up to become engineers, doctors, lawyers, architects (although I had architectural drafting completely on the table a few years ago but the unseen fitnah behind that study dropping is a dissertation)...but we cannot step up to those things not from a lacking mental aptitude standpoint, but from a lacking getting the credentials standpoint from a respected institution of higher education. Again some of us are dealing with some pretty heavy spiritual fitnah, as well. Some guys have background check issues, and they have to find that legal hustle, but don't want to drive taxis, uber, etc. 

We have to stop shooting ourselves in the foot. But, those boycotts are noticed across a number of demographics for a number of reasons. There is no compulsion in religion. If a person boldly doesn't help another believer, then they should boldly not harm, nor require help from that believer. Reciprocation expands the Barakat of Allah. If I extend the As Salaamu Alaikum to a brother, but they don't reply it in turn, then fortune went to one person and not the other unless the person who was first to extend the greetings decides that they want to ask Allah to withdraw their blessings upon them. The Salaams is a Sunnah of the Nabi that he expressed fosters love and return to Jannah. I have to find that hadith and place it in the comments here.

But, getting back to the sisters. They have displayed survival and money making skills during a pandemic on social media. I really was trying to add to that money they could hustle by making tracks available to split 50/50 with them.

Was willing to agree to 3 months on whichever tracks in my catalog are holding an acceptable standard.

Distrokid is part owned by Spotify and allows us to assign a split to any tracks to who we wish. It is all handled by Distrokid to your Paypal or other good options. I don't receive any of their personal info, and they don't receive any of my personal info. Just have to be a member and that costs $20 per year. So, if a particular sister's network is 100k to 250k or greater of sisters, and they have it so that they can go to them and say, "Ladies download this.", then we could be splitting that total reach in $1 downloads of which ever tracks deemed acceptable to them to shop to the ladies.

There is no compulsion in religion or life. But we do have to remember that Allah (swt) will turn his back on those who turn their backs on the cries of the poor in their times of need. Can click image to enlarge.

I have to say that not being able to succeed in this has been a bit of a disappointment. On paper it should have been an easy thing, but for some reason that clearly was not the case. But again no compulsion because I don't want anyone trying to compel me to do something that I don't want to do either. And it is best to respect people's wishes and comfort levels about things. Can everybody bear witness? That is part of Kindness, Courtesy and Consideration of others, as well. I must merchant to others, yes? I try to never forget to ask Allah to bless those "believing servants of His" who help me. "Believing servants of His" because we do get people who help but have ulterior motives.

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "By Him in Whose Hand my soul is! You will not enter Jannah until you believe, and you shall not believe until you love one another. May I inform you of something, if you do, you love each other. Promote greeting amongst you (by saying As-salamu 'alaikum to one another)".

[Muslim]. (46) Chapter: Excellence and Etiquette of Sincere love for the sake of Allah - Introduction, Hadith 378.

May Allah accept it.

I'm getting old.
