Respect for Our Daughters

Unity Among Western Muslim Communities
I think I better start by giving you the characteristics of the ideal Muslim community, as far as unity is concerned. And the ideal Muslim community is, of course, that of the Companions of the Prophet sallallaahu `alaihi wa sallam. So if we aspire to be united we should have that ideal in our mind. We might never attain to that high level, but we should at least keep it as a goal, and as a criterion by which we judge how far towards the unity we have gone. The community of the Companions.... |

Qur'anic Healing (Rukyah)
Islam is a complete way of life and addresses all aspects of the needs of the creation. Here we will deal specifically with matters relating to spiritual healing or Ruqyah. ( Note: Ruqyah is commonly translated in English as "incantation" which carries a negative meaning, since the word incantation is usually associated with magic, spells, and witchcraft. However, Ruqyah in Islam is the recitation of Qur'an, seeking of refuge, remembrance and supplications that are used as a means of treating sicknesses and other problems.)...
