NR MUSLIMS : VIRTUES OF ARAFAT

[omomummy]

salam alaykum dear brothers and sisters in faith, ALHAMDULLAH as we approach another HAJJ and EID -L-ADHA celebration in this month of Zul- Hijjah, 1428 AH. it is important we all benefit from the favours and mercies of the ALMIGHTY,and observe the virtues of this glorious period of the ISLAMIC calendar.

YAO-MAL- ARAFAT would be observed tomorrow in MECCA during this year's HAJJ (HOLY PILGRIMAGE) as stated below as compared to the GREGORIAN calendar.

one of the most important VIRTUE of this day is to indulge in FASTING during the day as our fellow Muslims around the world supplicate to ALLAH in HAJJ.

the proph. (SAW) was reported in SAHIH MUSLIM that the rewards of such an ibadah is the forgiveness of sins for the previous year from the mercy of ALLAH.

ALSO the eid day should also be that with reflections about the life of the PROH(SAW), his message from HIS LAST SERMON and also observe the eid in piety and moderation in enjoying the bounties of the day not forgetting our neighbours and friends.

REMEMBER : NO EATING BEFORE EID PRAYERS AND WAIT AFTER SALAT AND LISTEN TO THE UTHBAH(SERMON) OF THE IMAM BEFORE DEPARTING THE EID GROUND AND CONSTANTLY INDULGE IN THE PRAISE OF ALLAH THROUGH ALL KNOWN AZKAR.


*9 Zul Hijjah, 1428 - 18 December, 2007 - Day of Arafat (Pilgrimage)

*10 Zul Hijjah, 1428- 19 December, 2007 - Eid-ul-Adha

*subject to sigthing of the moon

may we all and our love ones and families continue to enjoy the favours, mercies, protection and guidance of ALLAH.

while wishing everyone EID -L- MUBARAK in advance.
