On
November 14th, 2012 a new conflict began in Gaza disrupting thousands of lives
and resulting in the death of over 100. More than 700 Palestinian people have
been injured and more death and injuries continue to be reported each day as
attacks rain down on streets and homes.
Life has always been difficult for citizens of Gaza. Years of conflict, blockade
and limited economic development have increased poverty.

| Why
We Plead "Guide us to the straight path" |
|
Muslims
plead to be guided to the straight path at least seventeen times a day due to
the obligation of reciting surat al-Fatiha (Qur'an 1) in salah (the 5 daily
prayers). How many of us have reflected on the nature of this guidance and the
path that we are supposed to be upon?
'Guide
us' (Ihdina)
In
Arabic the word hidaya doesn't simply mean guidance, it means to guide gently.
The word for gift (hadiyya) in Arabic also comes from the same root letters as
the word for guidance (hidaya). Religious guidance is the greatest gift that a
person can possess. It is also something that we do not control or own, but
rather it is bestowed upon us in an act of infinite mercy and grace by Allah  .

| The
Prophet's wisdom in leading his companions |
|
|
Human
resources experts say that successfully leading a small group of people is not
an easy task.
Imagine
for a moment the challenge Prophet Muhammad  faced
when he established the foundations of the first Muslim community first in
Makkah, then in Madinah.
When
Islam started to gain publicity, the few people who had embraced it in Makkah
formed the nucleus of the first Muslim community. This small community was put
to persecution at the hands of the people of Quraysh.

| The
truth about the Islamic month of Muharram |
|
A short description about why Muharram is so important, especially because the Messenger of Allah
(sa) said:
| "The best of fasting after Ramadaan is fasting Allaah's month of Muharram." |
The Prophet (sa) said:
| "For fasting the day of
'Ashura, I hope that Allah will accept it as expiation for (the sins committed in) the year that went before." (Muslim) |

Knowledge
 Without knowledge action is useless and knowledge without
action is futile.

CE - 634 CE)
A senior
companion (Sahabi) and the father-in-law of the prophet Muhammad ,
became the first Caliph following Muhammad's death.
