Learning Quran and Teaching it

Our Prophet   said

The Best among you is the one who learns and teaches Quran.

So everyone should learn and teach Quran , to be the best!

The reward of learning and teaching Quran is with Allah and Allah knows it, whether you give or take money for it. 

“The thing for which you most deserve to take payment is the Book of Allaah,” (Muslim,Bukhaari), 


We must start teaching Quran at early age. here is a good article to read.
In Western countries, it becomes a responsibility of every Muslim to do so, because our chidren get influenced by the societies.

Our Prophet   said

طَلَبُ الْعِلْمِ فَرِيضَةٌ عَلَى كُلِّ مُسْلِمٍ

Seeking Knowledge is obligatory to all Muslims.

Mu`awiyah (radiallahu anh) reported: The Messenger of Allah (salallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, "When Allah wishes good for someone, He bestows upon him the understanding of Deen.'' 
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim] 

Ibn Mas`ud (radiallahu anh) reported: The Prophet (salallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, "Envy is permitted only in two cases: A man whom Allah gives wealth, and he disposes of it rightfully, and a man to whom Allah gives knowledge which he applies and teaches it.'' 
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim] 

Eating with Eemaan

The best value of our religion is RESPECT.

and Respecting the religion would be the best value, as well!

Allah has set limits for us and one of them is in eating. We become very skeptical about it, when have choices in front of us. 

Like some of us do not care much for Zabiha and think if the animal is Halal then it is okay to eat.

Actually the Hala animal become permissble only if it is slaughtered in Islamic way and Allah's name is recited on it while slaughtering, otherwise the same animal becomes makrooh for us. 

Allah wnats us to eat Halal and Tayyab at the same time...not the Makrooh.

5:100

Say, "Not equal are the evil and the good, although the abundance of evil might impress you." So fear Allah , O you of understanding, that you may be successful.

                                                   5:96

 Lawful to you is game from the sea and its food as provision for you and the travelers, but forbidden to you is game from the land as long as you are in the state of iúram. And fear Allah to whom you will be gathered.

16:14

 And it is He who subjected the sea for you to eat from it tender meat and to extract from it ornaments which you wear. And you see the ships plowing through it, and [He subjected it] that you may seek of His bounty; and perhaps you will be grateful.
