Imam Hussain(a.s):"Verily people are the slaves of the world & their religion is superficial, only on their tongues.They are attentive to it as long as their material benifits are provided,but when they are tested ,the number of true devotees dwindles" Ref Bihar-Ul-Anwar .

When to Pray?

The Five Daily obligatory Prayers

Fajr
Say your prayer when the sun declines until the darkness of night and also at dawn. Dawn is certainly witnessed (by the angels of the night and day) (17:78).
Zuhr
To Him belongs all the thanks giving which takes place in the heavens and the earth, in the evenings and the noontime. (30:18).
Asr
Pay due attention to your prayers, especially the middle prayer and stand up while praying, in obedience to God.(2:238).
Maghrib
Say your prayers in the morning, the last portion of the day, and at the beginning of the night. Good deeds do away with the bad deeds. This is a reminder for those who take heed (11:114).

Isha
Believers, your slaves and the immature people must ask your permission three times a day before entering your house: before the morning prayer, at noon time and after the late evening prayer; these are most private times. After your permission has been granted, there is no harm if they come into your presence from time to time. This is how God explains His revelations to you. God is All-knowing and All-wise. (24:58)

Helping Others During Ramadan

Helping Others During Ramadan

Salaam alaykum -- greetings in peace!

Ramadan is a time of generosity and sacrifice, a time when Muslims personally experience the hunger and trial of so many throughout the world.

Ramadan is a special time of year , a time when Muslims around the world take a step back from their daily routines and focus on community, charity, fasting, and prayer.

Meet your brothers.

Is there a family in your neighborhood that you haven't seen in a while? A student in a strange new city? A new Muslim who is fasting for the first time? An elderly couple who can't get to the mosque?
Why not invite someone to iftar (dinner to break the daily fast). Even the smallest gesture of kindness can make a huge difference in someone's life.


Help Those in Need

All around the world, and even in your own city, there are people who are suffering from illness, hunger, or desperation. "
Those who spend their property for the cause of God, any time during the day or night, in public or in private, will receive their reward from their Lord. There will be no fear for them nor will they grieve" (Qur'an 2:274).

"
You can never have extended virtue and righteousness unless you spend part of what you dearly love for the cause of God. God knows very well whatever you spend for His cause" (Qur'an 3:92).

support Others

Is your local mosque hosting iftar dinners? Why not help with the planning or clean-up? Is a local charity raising funds for humanitarian aid? Is there a local Islamic school that needs guest teachers? Find out what you can do to help.

Pray for Others

(Muhammad)" if any of My servants ask you about Me, tell them that the Lord says, "I am near; I accept the prayers of those who pray." Let My servants answer My call and believe in Me so that perhaps they may know the right direction" (Qur'an 2:186).
Most importantly, during this very special month, take the time to pray for others - your family, your loved ones, those who are ill, those who live in fear, those who go hungry, those who walk in darkness. May Allah guide all of us upon the straight path of faith, and help us to be filled with piety, patience, humility, and kindness.
