loving the Prophet [s]

 

The deep love and devotion that all believers have for the Messenger of Allah, Muhammad (s) remains a distinct characteristic of Muslims throughout the centuries. However, while the fact of this love has not changed, its nature has. We praise the Prophet (s) but do not listen to him; we claim to love, but refuse to follow; we claim to believe but lead lives like those who don't.

The Ummah's greatest achievement over the past millennium has undoubtedly been its internal intellectual cohesion. From the early genesis of the ummah almost to the present day, and despite the outward drama of the clash of dynasties, the Muslims have maintained an almost unfailing attitude of religious respect and brotherhood among themselves.

 

 

maintaining family ties

 

While nearly every religion has emphasized good family relations, Islam has taken it to unprecedented heights. It is a duty to be discharged without an eye for reciprocity. A Muslim is required to be kind even to his non-Muslim relatives. Similarly he is required to be kind to even those relatives who are harsh to him. 

maintenance in marriage


Maintenance entails the wife’s incontestable right to lodging, clothing, nourishing, and general care and well-being. The wife’s residence must be adequate so as to provide her with the reasonable level of privacy, comfort, and independence. Foremost is the welfare of the wife and the stability of the marriage. What is true of the residence is true of clothing, food and general care. The wife has the right to be clothed, fed and cared for by the husband, in accordance with his means and her style of life. These rights are to be exercised without extravagance or miserliness.

marriage equality ?

In Islam homosexuality is regarded as a perverted act, a reversal of the natural order, a corruption of man’s sexuality, a crime against the rights of women and children, and an act of rebellion againts the law of Allah. The spread of this depraved practice in a society destroys its spiritual health and disrupts its natural life pattern. Those who practice it wage a war against the natural and physical functioning’s of their procreative organs, are guilty of breach of trust against society for they enjoy all the benefits of civic society but in turn do not take on themselves the responsibilities of procreation and child rearing to replenish society, and their conduct produces unnatural feminine characteristics in at least one other male and opens the way to adultery and moral degradation for at least two women.
