Meaning and Benefits of Ramadan!

5 Pillars of Islam!

1.       Shahadah – La ilaha illallah, Muhammadur rasool Allah
2.       Salah – 5 times namaz in a day
3.       Zakat – Charity
4.       Sawm – Fasting (Roza) during the month of Ramadan
5.       Hajj - For those Muslims who are physically and financially able to make the journey to Makkah, the Hajj is a once in a lifetime duty that is the peak of their religious life.

Ramadan
A name chosen by Allah (S.W.T) himself for the month of fasting. The rest of the names in the hijri calendar are chosen by the Arabs. It’s the only name of the month which is mentioned in the Holy Quran!

Meaning: To burn (jala dena)
·        The sins that we have done in the last 324 or 325 days of the year (Hijri Calendar) starts to burn from the 1st day of Ramadan & as the 30 days of Ramadan is over, the person becomes as pure as a new born.

Benefits:
·        Spiritual - 1:700
For every deed of yours, you’ll get 700 times the benefit. So if you spend Re.1/- as charity, you will receive 700 neki.
·        Tarawih: For every sajda in tarawih, 1500 neki i.e. 60000 neki a day.
·        Lailatu Qadr – The night (21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th, & 29th) to seek forgiveness from Allah (S.W.T)

Four types of people shall not be forgiven even in the night of Lailatu Qadr
1.       Alcoholic
2.       Disobedient to parents
3.       Disrespectful to relatives
4.       The one who hates someone & wants to harm that person in any manner (Keena)

Seek forgiveness in this holy month of Ramadan! May Allah (S.W.T) bless us all.

Ramadan Mubarak!

Dedicated to all those Hindus who wants Mandir & Muslims who wants Masjid on        "The disputed land - Ayodhya" I happened to meet Mr.Balraj Upadhyay (63) & Mr.Tabrez Farooqui (64) at a restaurant in Kurla. What made me to interact with them was the language they were using to communicate with each other. Balraj was speaking in one of the purest form on Hindi & likewise, Tabrez was using the best of Urdu. I was amazed to hear that they are friends for more than 50 years. Balraj, a Brahmin by caste & a Retd. Mechanical Engineer by profession whereas Tabrez is an Urdu writer & at times preaches Islam to the youth. They both looked simple & down-to-earth & were enjoying their tea until I interfered. I asked them if I could join, a straight look on their face followed by a smile which I presumed as an acknowledgement. I don't generally prefer to disturb anyone's privacy however the situation over here was different. It was rain...

Why cant BJP and its supporters handle criticism?

Why can’t BJP & its supporters handle criticism? You are in power & it’s a democratic country. As a citizen of this diverse nation, we have the right to ask questions to the government & you’re obligated to answer us. Why do you have to defend yourself behind the excuse of Congress whenever we ask questions about the benefit of demonetization? Indeed it took us 60 years to realize that Congress was incompetent to run the country. Isn’t that the reason we gave an opportunity to you (with majority) in the first place? Why don’t you justify the after math of demonetization? The nation wants to know, after all those sacrifices, what have we achieved! We stood outside atm for days; 1.5 million lost their jobs; 2% downfall in GDP & 100+ martyrs outside the ATM/banks for the betterment of the country… We all accepted it assuming this is what it takes to become a corruption free country & at the end, it will be all worth it! You have asked for 50 days, we gave you a...
