Abu Hurairah r.a narrates that The Messenger Of Allah said: Our Lord (glorified and exalted be He) descends each night to the earth’s sky when there remains the final third of the night, and He says: “Who is saying a prayer to Me that I may answer it? Who is asking something of Me that I may give it him? Who is asking forgiveness of Me that I may forgive him? ” And thus He continues till [the light of] dawn shines.

[Imam Muslim]

Northern Lights…

Posted in places of interest, random on July 30, 2008 by randomfa2oush

Allah did not create night and left it dark.He put stars in them so we can marvel at His wonders and praise Him thankfully.

The famed Persian poet, Hafiz of Shiraz, said:

“Even after all this time
The sun never says to the earth:
‘You owe Me!’

Look what happens with
A love like that:
It lights up the Whole Sky.”

Is it not He who guides you in the darkness of the land and the sea and sends the winds as heralds of mercy? Then is there another God besides Allah? Exalted be Allah above all they associate with him” – (The Quran 27:62-63)

The Aurora Borealis is also called the Northern Lights, as it is only visible in the North sky from the Northern Hemisphere. The Aurora Borealis most often occurs from September to October and from March to April.Auroras are produced by the collision of charged particles from Earth’s magnetosphere, mostly electrons but also protons and heavier particles, with atoms and molecules of Earth’s upper atmosphere (at altitudes above 80 km). The particles have energies of 1 to 100 keV. They originate from the Sun and arrive at the vicinity of Earth in the relatively low-energy solar wind. When the trapped magnetic field of the solar wind is favourably oriented (principally southwards) it reconnects with Earth’s magnetic field, and solar particles enter the magnetosphere and are swept to the magnetotail. Further magnetic reconnection accelerates the particles towards Earth.

The collisions in the atmosphere electronically excite atoms and molecules in the upper atmosphere. The excitation energy can be lost by light emission or collisions. Most aurorae are green and red emission from atomic oxygen. Molecular nitrogen and nitrogen ions produce some low level red and very high blue/violet aurorae. The light blue colors are produced by ionic nitrogen and the neutral nitrogen gives off the red and purple color with the rippled edges. Different gases interacting with the upper atmosphere will produce different colors, caused by the different compounds of oxygen and nitrogen. The level of solar wind activity from the Sun can also influence the color of the aurorae.

On Love,
When you love you should not say, “God is in my heart,” but rather, I am in the heart of God.”
And think not you can direct the course of love, for love, if it finds you worthy, directs your course.

On Joy and Sorrow,
When you are joyous, look deep into your heart and you shall find it is only that which has given you sorrow that is giving you joy.
When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.

On Friendship,
When you part from your friend, you grieve not;
For that which you love most in him may be clearer in his absence, as the mountain to the climber is clearer from the plain.

-Excerpts from The Prophet,Kahlil Gibran

Beauty…

Hamza Robertson and Sami Yusuf – Your Beauty

Brighter than the sun
Fairer than the moon
Your beauty is so dazzling

Bigger than the sea
Higher than the clouds
Your soul is so enlightening

What I’d give to see your face
Beaming with so much grace

Brighter than the sun
Fairer than the moon
Your beauty is so dazzling
Bigger than the sea
Higher than the clouds
Your soul is so enlightening (x2)

CHORUS:
Ya Mawlay, ya Mawlay Salli ‘ala Taha (x2)
husnu Ahmadal Bashir
Akhjalal badral munir
Oh my Lord, Send your peace and blessings on Taha (one of the prophet’s names)
The beauty of Ahmad the portent
Ashamed the illuminative full moon

Will I be from those
You welcome with a smile
As you call your nation
Come to my side

Or will I see you frown
And then turn away
I did let you down
I forgot this Day

What I’d give to see your face
Beaming with so much grace

Brighter than the sun
Fairer than the moon
Your beauty is so dazzling

Bigger than the sea
Higher than the clouds
Your soul is so enlightening

CHORUS

Bridge:
Ya Habiba Allah
Ya Safiyya Allah
‘Alayka Salatu Allah
Wa Salamu Allah
Oh you the one who Allah loves
Oh you the one who Allah chose
May Allah’s peace and blessing be upon you

Your smile is so bright
It lits up the dark night
Brought mercy and light
To my waiting heart

I know that I’m weak
Of my sins I can’t speak
Your mercy I seek
Though I’m not worthy

What I’d give to see your face
Beaming with so much grace

Brighter than the sun
Fairer than the moon
Your beauty is so dazzling

Bigger than the sea
Higher than the clouds
Your soul is so enlightening

Where art thou?

Posted in Faith, random on July 28, 2008 by randomfa2oush

Thus Moses said, when he conversed with God: “O Lord, where shall I seek Thee?” God answered: “Among those whose hearts are broken.”

Moses said: “O Lord, no heart is more broken and despairing than mine.”

God answered: “Then, I am where thou art.”

In a manner of speaking…

Nothing means everything?

Nouvelle Vague

In a Manner of speaking
I just want to say
That I could never forget the way
You told me everything
By saying nothing

In a manner of speaking
I don’t understand
How love in silence becomes reprimand
But the way that i feel about you
Is beyond words

Oh give me the words
Give me the words
That tell me nothing
Ohohohoh give me the words
Give me the words
That tell me everything

In a manner of speaking
Semantics won’t do
In this life that we live we only make do
And the way that we feel
Might have to be sacrificed

So in a manner of speaking
I just want to say
That just like you I should find a way
To tell you everything
By saying nothing.

Oh give me the words
Give me the words
That tell me nothing
Ohohohoh give me the words
Give me the words
That tell me everything

Oh give me the words
Give me the words
That tell me nothing
Ohohohoh give me the words
Give me the words
That tell me everything

Soulmate OST

Lasse Lindh – C’mon Through

It ain't so easy to love you true,
account of all the rattlesnakes and all that makes you blue
but it's worth it, I, I love the thrill

Come, come, come
C'mon through, c'mon you, come dig right into my heart
C'mon through, c'mon you, come dig right into my heart

What is the body if not a place,
where you store all anger and happiness and pain
but it's worth it, I love the thrill

Come, come, come
C'mon through, c'mon you, come dig right into my heart
C'mon through, c'mon you, come dig right into my heart
C'mon through
C'mon through, c'mon you, come dig right into my heart

Perfect…

There is no such thing as a perfect man and perfect woman in the world
There is only perfect love built together by imperfect man and imperfect woman…

I’ll tell you how my day has been
How the sun has caught my face
How I lull myself to sleep
Waving shadows on my face

Chasing dreams that just passed by
Broken dreams, I’m just too late
Chasing dreams that just passed by
Broken dreams, I’m just too late

Chasing dreams, chasing dreams, chasing dreams
Chasing…… chasing broken dreams
Chasing dreams, chasing dreams, chasing dreams
Chasing……. ( oh oh ) chasing broken dreams

If only you could keep me warm
If only you could keep me from harm
If only you could………….

Chasing dreams that just passed by
Broken dreams, I’m just too late
Chasing dreams that just passed by
Broken dreams, I’m just too late

Chasing dreams, chasing dreams, chasing dreams
Chasing……..chasing broken dreams
Chasing dreams, chasing dreams, chasing dreams
Chasing………. ( oh oh ) chasing broken dreams

Iman…

Posted in Faith, Hadith on July 26, 2008 by randomfa2oush

Abu Hurairah r.a narrates that Rasulullah s.a.w said: Refresh your Iman.The companions said,how can we refresh our Iman O’ Messenger of Allah? Rasulullah s.a.w said: Repeat the Kalimah La Ilaha Illallah very frequently and abundantly.

Rasulullah s.a.w said: If the Seven Heavens and Seven Earths were put together on one side of a scale and the Kalimah ” La ilaha Illallah ” were place on the other side of the scale, the later would outweigh the former.
[Sahih Al-Bukhari]
