Rajab 1434 Winning Quote
Alhamdulillah, We are happy to announce that Brother Abu Hudayfah from East London & Brother Bin Shabir from Bedfordshire jointly won our Competition for the month of Rajab 1434 with the following quotes:
Ibn Qayyim (rahimahuAllaah) said:
''The Shaitan has misled most people by beautifying for them the performance of certain voluntary acts of worship such as voluntary prayers and voluntary fasting while neglecting other obligatory acts of worship such as enjoining the good and eradicating the evil, to the extent that they do not even make the intention of performing them whenever they are able to. Such people are considered by the scholars to be on the bottom of the scale of religion: For the essence of our religion is to perform what Allah ordered us to do. The one who does not perform his obligations is actually worse than the one who performs sins. Anyone having some knowledge about the revelation of Allah, the guidance of the Prophet, sallallahu alayhe wa sallam, and the life of the companions would conclude that those who are pointed at today as the most pious people are in fact the least pious. Indeed, what kind of piety is there in a person who witnesses Allah's sanctities being violated, his religion abandoned, the Sunnah of His Messenger shunned, and yet remains still with a cold heart and a shut mouth' Such a person is like a dumb Shaitan! In the same way the one who talks falsehood is a speaking Shaitan. Isn't the misfortune of Islam due only to those who whenever their life and food are secure, would not care about what happens to the religion? The best among them would offer a sorry face. But if they were challenged in one of the things their heart is attached to like their money, they would spare no efforts to get it back. These people, besides deserving the anger of Allah, are afflicted with the greatest calamity without even knowing it: They have a dead heart. Indeed the more alive a person's heart is, the stronger its anger for the sake of Allah and the more complete his support to Islam and Muslims." And
Abu 'Ubayd Al-'Asqalaani said: “I have not seen Abu 'Ubaidah Al-Khawas laugh for forty years. It was said to him: “Why don’t you laugh?” He said: “How can I laugh while a Muslim is still imprisoned by the Mushrikeen?!” ["Sifat Al-Safwah", 2/416]

Jummada Al Ahkir 1434 Winning Quote
Alhamdulillah, We are happy to announce that Brother Abu Anwar from East London won our Competition for the month of Jummada Al Ahkir 1434 with the following quote:
For the Pleasure of My Lord, the Prisons Come Perfumed
You are not the first to be tortured for a Mighty Religion and a Manifest Legislation,
Nor are you alone on this Path, for there are countless caravans throughout the years,
And if an ‘Eid passes by, and a son is born and months rotate, while you are imprisoned,
Do not grieve O Brother of the Righteous Ones of departing from family and losing children,
And if they forbid you from their visits and likewise their letters never appear,
So if this is for the Lord and Religion then where is the patience, where is the certainty!?
And where are your past speeches regarding the weight of the Millah of that Trustworthy Messenger?!
That Intimate Friend went willingly To slaughter his son, a clear trial,
On a magnificent, noble day like today without any anxiety, he put him down upon his forehead,
So my Lord saved him through His Good Will and ransomed him with a fat sheep,
But you, your sons are in a carefree life And diversion and amusement, and a secured home,
Yet you have not been asked to slaughter them rather, merely for patience of a temporary separation,
For verily, they are in the care of a Merciful Lord And you are in solitude with Him and Faith,
For the Pleasure of the Lord and assisting a Religion Life and all children become insignificant,
For the Pleasure of a Lord, Mighty and Generous The prisons come perfumed, and the bitter come sweet…

Narrated Anas: Allah's Apostle said,
"Help your brother, whether he is an oppressor or he is an oppressed one. People asked, "O Allah's Apostle! It is all right to help him if he is oppressed, but how should we help him if he is an oppressor?" The Prophet said, "By preventing him from oppressing others."
