Eid Mubarak 2012

Eid Mubarak 2012

Muslims around the world welcome the day of Eid victory (Eid al-Fitr) with joy after carrying out a full month of religious fasting in the holy month of Ramadan as a Muslim duty. In the month Muslims are trained to work hard to practice their religion sincerely. Not only learning of hunger and thirst, but also trained to always control their emotions.

Muslims who had reached the point of victory in the month of Shawwal (Eid al-Fitr) are that they are capable of implementing positive habits as well as in the month of Ramadan as the fourth pillar of Islam to be applied to other months. Such as performing prayers at night, reading the Qur'an and dhikr expect ridlo and forgiveness of God.

Fasting (Shaum) in Islam has rules adapted to human nature and does not intend to trouble or torment humans. Muslims are required to fast before dawn meal (eat in the morning) before the Fajr prayer, and they have to break the fast at Maghrib prayer. Muslims are forbidden to fast without break (no food or drink).

Before the Eid prayer, Muslims are required to issue a tithe (Zakat Fitrah) to be distributed to the poor in order to help others and to clean up property owned before God someday.

May this Eid 2012 make us clean from all sins and mistakes we have done in the past. May God always gives the right and forgive our sins. Amin.

The Struggles of Prophet Muhammad and His Companions in the Early Days of the Islamic Caliphate

The rise of Islam was not merely the establishment of a religion—it was the birth of a transformative movement that reshaped the spiritual, political, and social fabric of the world. At the center of this monumental change stood Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his devoted companions. The early years of Islam were marked by profound struggle, sacrifice, and perseverance, as they laid the foundation for what would later become the Islamic Caliphate. The Revelation and the Beginning of Opposition In 610 CE, Prophet Muhammad received the first revelation from Allah (God) through the Angel Jibril (Gabriel) in the Cave of Hira near Mecca. At the time, Mecca was a center of trade, tribalism, and polytheism. The Prophet’s message of monotheism—worshiping one God—directly threatened the socio-economic and religious structure maintained by the Quraysh tribe, the ruling elite of Mecca. When the Prophet began to openly preach Islam, the opposition intensified. He called for justice, equal...

The Message and The Messenger: Why Islam and Prophet Muhammad Are an Inseparable Package

To understand Islam is to understand a fundamental, indivisible bond: the relationship between the divine message and its final messenger. Islam, as a faith and way of life, cannot be separated from the man chosen by God to deliver it, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). They are not two distinct elements to be accepted individually; rather, they form a single, complete package. Accepting one inherently means accepting the other. This concept is not merely a matter of reverence for a historical figure. It is woven into the theological fabric of Islam, from its foundational declaration of faith to the daily practices of its followers worldwide. For a Muslim, believing in God (Allah) alone is incomplete without also believing in the prophethood of Muhammad (PBUH). This article explores the core reasons behind this inseparable connection. 1. The Gateway to Islam: The Shahada The very entry point into the Islamic faith is the declaration known as the Shahada. This testimony, the first of...
