SEXTON AND MUEZZIN
By
Muhammad Mahmud Yarima (Nakumbo)
Poor sexton and muezzin
His big ringing bell’s broken
Muezzin’s minaret’s blown down
Pow! In Jos on its earth surface rrrrawn!
All are result of the misnomer
You create and give to each other
Turning your church and mosque
Into billet; preventing Billy and Bolsk
From having minuet and hug,
Decant calmness into your mug
And have a pretty froth of peace
That’ll make your tolerance increase;
Let’s invite people friendly in-
To our homes without a fiendish grin

THE DAY IS COMING
THE DAY IS COMING
“…….DON ‘T BE IN HASTE” (Q21:37)
“The seemingly success of the west is an illusion and like every illusion it would fade away”
Abdulhakeem Harun “September 11 Before And Beyond” page 140
And all that’s happening to us today is for Allah to have martyrs among us. Not that He had forsaken us. It had happened to the early Muslims.
IF A WOUND (AND KILLING) HAS TOUCHED YOU, BE SURE A SIMILAR WOUND (AND KILLING) HAS TOUCHED THE OTHERS. AND SO ARE THE DAYS (GOOD AND NOT SO GOOD), WE GIVE TO MEN BY TURNS, THAT ALLÂH MAY TEST THOSE WHO BELIEVE, AND THAT HE MAY TAKE MARTYRS FROM AMONG YOU. AND ALLÂH LIKES NOT THE ZÂLIMÛN (POLYTHEISTS AND WRONG-DOERS).
(Aali Imran 3:140)
Allah also said:
OR THINK YOU THAT YOU WILL ENTER PARADISE WITHOUT SUCH (TRIALS) AS CAME TO THOSE WHO PASSED AWAY BEFORE YOU? THEY WERE AFFLICTED WITH SEVERE POVERTY AND AILMENTS AND WERE SO SHAKEN THAT EVEN THE MESSENGER AND THOSE WHO BELIEVED ALONG WITH HIM SAID, "WHEN (WILL COME) THE HELP OF ALLÂH?" YES! CERTAINLY, THE HELP OF ALLÂH IS NEAR!
(Al-Baqarah 2:214)
So,
Let’s be patient, Allah had indeed “written in Az-zabur (all the revealed books) after [Allah] had already written in Ad-dhikr [lauhul mahfuz] that (His) righteous servants will inherit the land”
Look at Q21:105
Prophet (pbuh) said “The day of judgement will not come until tha Muslims fight the jews and the Muslims kill the jews”
-Sahih Muslim
But!
We should bear in mind that Prophet (pbuh) had said:
If you
1. Practice the “Inna” transaction ie selling goods to a person for a certain price and then buying them back form him for a far less price; and
2. Follow the tails of cows ie indulge in agriculture and became content with it and
3. DESERT THE JIHAD (then)
Allah will cover you with humiliation and it will not be removed till you return back to your religion
-Abu Daud Hadith No. 3462
Therefore:
We should engage in:
1. Largess prayerS and fasting
2. Shun all evil deeds
3. JIHAD
