I have a few blogs and wanted to keep up with technology & trends by adding Social Networking share buttons to all of my blog posts.  This way you can share the posts via Twitter, Google +, Facebook, sending to someone in an email or by pinning on Pinterest (mainly for pictures).

So above each blog post you will see the below:

I wanted to share this picture with you as well.  I also found it when I was Google searching for something, can't remember what.  Masha Allah I saw LOTS of these in the spring when I was in Dubai.  I also see them quite often here in Raleigh, NC.

This is a poster so I had to make it small enough to fit properly in the post.  Click it to make it larger or you can search online for it.  OR, you can always let me know if you want me to email it to you.

Fasting the White Days of August/September, 2012

As Salaamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh! I hope this finds you close to Allah & in the best of health and Iman, Ameen.

Fasting is something which is just for
Allaah, and Allaah will give multiple rewards without measure for it.
The hadeeth says: “[Allaah says:] Fasting is Mine and it is I Who give
reward for it.” (Al-Bukhaari, Fath, no. 1904)

The virtues of Ayyam al-Beed. Here are some ahadeeth.

Jareer ibn ‘Abdullaah radhiyallaahu ‘anhu narrated that the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wasallam said: “Fasting three days of each month is fasting for a lifetime, and ayyam al-beed are the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth.” (Narrated by al-Nasaa’i (2420); classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Targheeb, (1040)).

"Beed'' is the plural of "Abyad'' which means white. Three days of 13, 14 and 15 of lunar month are called "Al-Ayyam-ul- Beed''
for the reason that their nights are bright because of the moonlight.
The moon begins to diminish gradually after these days.

Abu Dharr radhiyallaahu ‘anhu said: The Messenger of Allaah sallallaahu ‘alayhi wasallam said to me: “If you fast any part of the month, then fast the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth.” (Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, (761); al-Nasaa’i, (2424); classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Targheeb, (1038)).


Insha'Allaah ta'ala, for the month of August/September, 2012 The White Days will fall on:

13th – Friday, August 31, 2012
14th – Saturday, September 1, 2012
15th – Sunday, September 2, 2012

In'shaa`Allah let us try to make the effort to fast these three days and be consistent!

Narrated `Aisha bint Abu Bakr (radiAllahu anhumma): The Prophet (salAllahu 'alayhi wa sallam) was asked, "What deeds are loved most by Allah?"
He (salAllahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said, "The most regular constant deeds even though they may be few." He added, 'Don't take upon yourselves, except the deeds which are within your ability."
