Subject: Portent of The Hour and a Question Author: Amjad Asker [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 20:33:23 07/24/02 Wed Author Host/IP: 1Cust229.tnt1.tpa2.da.uu.net/67.210.224.229 Assalam alaikum The other day I read a hadith that Prophet Muhammad(sas) said a portent of the Hour is that there will be fire that will gather the people from the east and west. The significance of why I am asking this is because I was watching the news and they discovered that there is an asteroid with the probability of one in a million that it might collide with Allah's beautiful earth. I just wanted to know could, and let me emphasize could, be what that hadith is talking about. It is a very famous hadith, I don't think you will have any trouble in finding it. Also, I have been trying to look for an ayah that gives a command or sign that our women folk should wear hijab. I am only asking because I know a muslim sister who doesn't wear a hijab and I want to give her an ayah and a hadith. i can find the hadith, thats no problem,. Subhan Allah, wal hamdillah, wa Allahu Akbar May Allah Bless You Jazak Allah Khairun Assalam Alaikum [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

[> Subject: Re: Portent of The Hour and a Question Author: Laila Nasheeba [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 10:22:23 07/25/02 Thu Author Host/IP: dhcp024-210-245-129.woh.rr.com/24.210.245.129 As salaamu Alaikoum There are many Hadiths that tell of signs of the last hour. Allah knows best if what you refer to can be taken as that. In regards to evidence from the Quran about Hijaab, the evidence from the hadith is sufficient but here is more: "And tell the believing women to lower their gaze and to be mindful of their chastity, and not to display their charms in public beyond what may decently be apparent thereof; hence let them draw their head-coverings over their bosoms. And let them not display more of their charms to any but their husbands, or their fathers, or their husbands fathers, or their sons, or their husbands sons, or their brothers, or their brothers sons, or their sisters sons, or their womenfolk, or those whom they rightfully possess, or such male attendants who are beyond sexual desire, or children that are as of yet unaware of women's nakedness; and let them not swing their legs in walking so as to draw attention to their hidden charms. And always you believers, turn to Allah (God) in repentance so that you may attain a happy state." [Quran Chapter 24, verse 31] "O Prophet, tell thy wives and daughters and the believing women that they should cast their outer garments over their persons when abroad; that is most convenient so that they be not known as such and not molested; and Allah (God) is most forgiving, most merciful.." [Quran Chapter 33 verse 59] "The wives of the Prophet used to go to Al-Manasi, a vast open place (near Baqia at Medina) to answer the call of nature at night. 'Umar used to say to the Prophet "Let your wives be veiled," but Allah's Apostle did not do so. One night Sauda bint Zam'a the wife of the Prophet went out at 'Isha' time and she was a tall lady. 'Umar addressed her and said, "I have recognized you, O Sauda." He said so, as he desired eagerly that the verses of Al-Hijab (the observing of veils by the Muslim women) may be revealed. So Allah revealed the verses of "Al-Hijab" (A complete body cover excluding the eyes)." [Bukhari 148] AND ALLAH KNOWS BEST Laila Nasheebsa
