shaykhness:

The most beautiful du’a is ”Ihdinas Sirat al-Mustaqim’.

It is not simply asking for ”guidance” if you were to look at the translation.

It is asking a guidance that is built upon steadfastness [Mustaqim/Istiqamah].

Steadfastness is to be upon everything done, should be done and everything not being done, not being done.

- Meaning, if you follow the deen, you may as well be steadfast.

Wallahu a’lam.

This amazing area is Rainbow Sherbet Hills in Rock Sites of Cappadocia, Turkey. The formations are formed from volcanic turf rock eroded into wild shapes. Residents have carved homes in these rocks and taken dwelling in them for thousands of years. There are even entire underground systems. 
There was no paint nor Photoshop used etc!

From Allaah’s Blessings on a servant is that he be granted contentment, whether that be regarding his residence, his clothes, his means of transport, or his children. For when a person is content with what Allaah has given him, he will remain rich.

A group of Muslims was detained Wednesday at Orlando Sanford International Airport, apparently because of a misunderstanding over an Islamic cleanliness ritual, authorities said.

The captain of Allegiant flight No.625 from Allentown, Pa., radioed ahead and asked airport police to meet the plane when it landed about 8:30p.m., said Larry Dale, airport director and commander of its 11-member police force.

Members of the group were lingering in the lavatory and asked for a cup, arousing suspicion, Dale said. An FBI agent was interviewing three men late Wednesday, but it appeared that the travelers were detained because of a religious custom dictating cleanliness and that they would be released.

“In today’s world, we’d rather be cautious,” Dale said.

Lotas are seriously the cause of so much public anxiety. :P

We’ve got so many damn engineers in our community - can’t one of you geniuses whip up some sort of collapsible, portable lota so the FBI wouldn’t have to detain us just because we need to pee?!

C’mon, yaaron. :P
