nd 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. (AnNahl 16:14) In the early 2000s, I went to the beach with my school classmates and teachers. This was not a very typical field trip. We were on assignment to help clean up the beach. There had been a recent oil spill in the Arabian Sea and dead sea creatures had washed ashore in Karachi, their bodies slick with an oil that had suffocated them.

In 2016, empty shells lined that same beach and I failed to understand why. A friend wrote to me talking about how rising temperatures were killing the creatures who had lived inside these shells. She wrote about the impact of oil spills, pollutants being dumped into the sea, and the inevitable death of the living beings that calls these waters home.

I have not seen that beach in years. But this is not about one beach. It is about the World (dunya) as we know it and will know in (Continued on page 10)

and acting on climate change amongst members of the community. His point, summed up, was that people see the deteriorating environment as a decree of Allah and hence there is no point resisting it.

Some even go as far to say that Allah is punishing us for our wrongdoings. What’s something we’re all taught about Divine punishment? You can’t avoid it. Not if you’re a king or the son of a prophet.

The argument is an interesting one.

But when placed in the context of multiple ayah and ahadith where Allah and the Messenger of Allah stress on the land being a means of mercy, the argument is not very convincing.

To allow the active and ongoing abuse of the earth to go on is just another of the many instances where we misunderstand and misuse religious teachings. Our Prophet Muhammad ‫ صیل ہللا علیہ وسمل‬took

the years to come. When Allah mentions how He “subjected the sea” to us (Al Jasiyah 45:12), why do we take that as a challenge upon ourselves to harm the sea and the world it is so carefully placed in?

Most Muslims I talk to, care deeply about the environment because the cultures they were raised in taught them that they receive nourishment and sustenance from this world. In an age of modern conveniences when take-outs and bulk shopping prevents us from truly digging our fingers deep into the soil, we still have many examples of environmentalism in our Muslim communities.

Recycling is a household phenomena even if we are not aware of it. The joke on the internet about blue tin boxes has some truth in it - instead of cookies, we find buttons and sewing kits because the women in our community know the value of a sturdy tin-box that can be repurposed.

But beyond individual and communal examples, there is a growing need to push corporations and governments to step up in this fight to be environmentally friendly and make climate change a factor to account for in decision-making.

Book Review: Malcom X The Autobiography of Malcolm X: As told to Alex Haley Rags to riches usually brings to mind stories of people who rise from the poverty of the ghetto and rises to affluence and great wealth through sheer perseverance and grit. Well the Autobiography of Malcolm X as dictated to Alex Haley provides a rags to riches story of another kind - of a man who rises from the depths of depravity from the deepest guts of the ghetto to a great moral force that brought hundreds of thousands towards the discipline and purity of the religion of Islam in a land that has not yet heard of even the existence of such a religion - through introspection, perseverance, and sheer grit.

By: Beenish Khurshid Malcolm X was an American Civil Rights Revolutionary leader in Montreal, Quebec the 1950 and 1960s. While most Black rights advocates such as Martin Luther King Jr. took the stance of non-violence, Malcolm advocated for a more assertive and revolutionary way of thinking - advocating for the average black man to recognize his history, and to stand up and demand his rights. He was assassination on February 21, 1965, in New York City, New York, U.S. The rise of Islam in America's African population can in large part be attributed to Malcolm and his preaching. May God rest his soul in peace.

“They put your mind right in a bag, and take it wherever they want.”

— Malcolm X “We didn’t land on Plymouth Rock, Plymouth Rock landed on us.”

— Malcolm X “Concerning nonviolence, it is criminal to teach a man not to defend himself when he is the constant victim of brutal attacks.”

— Malcolm X Malcolm X’s story has been a truly inspirational read, for many reasons. For one, it provides honest insight into the nature of the basic human being. For another it provides perspective into the nature of “the white man” as he calls it: the nature of political dynamic, and systems of power, control, and oppression. Most consciously, his writing reflects the nature of destiny, and his biography is written as his own story is unfolding.

I will not be remiss if I call Malcolm X's biography the single most inspiring and mind-altering book I have read of the modern age. It has shifted my perspective on how I see people of African descent. I see now a new light to media, political discourse, and propaganda. And I see poverty, drug-addiction, and homelessness in a completely new, refreshing, honest and fact based light.

But most importantly, Malcolm X's biography has taught me the power of courage. To speak truth to power. And what a true Muslim man's character should embody. Not much has changed in the modus operandi of the powers that be since the time of Malcolm. What has changed is that those with courage have been put out (assassinated). This book, while not written to do so, inspires all to the way of truth seeking (knowledge through reading books), then apply that truth to deconstruct the narratives we are being taught, and then preach this deconstruction to all that will listen.

Malcolm X should be a mandatory read for all Muslim, and AfricanAmerican, youth. Age appropriate for the teenage years, Malcolm will do wonders showing your men the paths of life and the courage to be a man.

hen in the car, on the bus, doing homework, when bored or reading a book, tell me what you hear?

Most of us hear the sound of music. Music gives people a chance to break out of our monotonous routines, and boredom and experience emotions. A diversity of sounds. Something to make the blood pump, the heart feel, and the souls to feel alive.

But the traditional scholars of old, both Sunni and Shia, have always considered Music as categorically haram.

“Soon there will be people from my Ummah who will regard adultery, wearing silk garments, wine and musical instruments as lawful…’

(Sahih Bukhari -Ta’liqan, ‫ بصيغة الجزم‬Hadith: 5590, Sahih Ibn Hibban; Al Ihsan, Hadith: 6754 and As Sunanul Kubra of Imam Bayhaqi, vol. 10 pg. 221) And there are many other hadiths like this that make it clear that Rasulullah ‫صیل ہللا علیہ وسمل‬

considered music, specifically in the form of musical instruments, or even music-less poetry in the form of speech that invites evil or misleads in some way, as a bad thing. So how then do we reconcile ourselves to the dry monotonous car rides, and to the boredom of our everyday lives? Having taking the trip from cultured to a music-free lifestyle, here are a few tips: (Continued on page 18)

(Continued from page 17)

•

Music is like an addiction. You won’t realize this until you start going without and feeling the pangs. The best way to cut it is to cut it clean, but before you do, you have to prepare yourself mentally for what it is you are doing, and why.

•

Realize that when Allah SWT recommends something for you, it is always better for you. There is barakah in it, and Allah SWT will reward you for taking this higher road.

•

Take a look at the other sins on the list: adultery, wearing silk garments, wine. The harm in most of these is fairly evident and obvious. And while we may not have a clear understanding of why God is forbidding us from musical instruments, know that this is God’s wisdom, and mercy upon His believing servants.

•

Busy your heart with the remembrance, consciousness, and genuine gratitude of Allah SWT. This is not something that is fostered easily, by saying “I am thankful to Allah”, but something that is cultivated from within. God is Great.

•

When you give something up, don’t look back. Going back and forth, and straddling the two worlds confuses the Heart, and is one of the causes of hypocrisy. Give it up because you feel it is wrong. Give it up because Allah dislikes it. Give it up, and walk away.

•

Move on to better things. Read books on your rides to and from. Start a conversation with someone you haven’t chatted with in a while. Read Qur’an. Memorize a part of it.

Think through a personal problem you are having, and ask Allah SWT for guidance. All things that your time, your mind, and your hearts energies can be better devoted towards.

•

For those who find it difficult to cut clean, below is a list of acapella artists: artists who use beat-boxing and other techniques to produce sounds only with their mouths and hands. The artists listed also only produce material that invites one to the way of Allah SWT. Please, take a look, and supplement your playlist, or replace it completely with the wide diversity of halal listening options out there.

Jazakallah khair.

Note: we are not writing this article to encourage those who do not listen to music at all to start. Silence is golden, and the Qur’an is the best sound. But the aim of the article is to provide those who are struggling with the idea that music may be haram an alternative, to pull each other closer to the path of Allah SWT. For another perspective on the permissibility of Music, watch this: https:// www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1dafblZJec

If you are looking for alternative content, below are a few recommendations to get you started. Once you have entered the realm, you'll find that there is a very large realm of music-free content out there.

here are a lot of people we know, meet or see in our lives who have opinions about other people. They discuss about other people's lives and persons. About what they do and how they do it. And about how, what they do, is wrong. They keep tabs on other people’s mistakes diligently. They do not spare any moment to shed their opinions, whether in front of people or behind their backs.

What is the reason and why do we do this? Why do we harbor opinions about others?

Is it jealousy or self-righteousness? Self-centeredness or insecurity? Or is it a combination of all of these?

At some level, we probably think that we are somehow, better, smarter, better looking, wiser, more generous and more giving than other people. Therefore, it’s our job to state what we don’t like about others, whether it makes any sense or not. Whether it hurts others or not, whether it causes other evils in the society or not. In my opinion, when we compare ourselves to other people, it makes us anxious. There are two problems with this attitude. If we compare ourselves to others whom we find more competent than us, this will increase our jealousy. But if we discover others lesser than us, it inflates our

egos which sooner or later makes us pompous. This attitude of comparison keeps us on our toes because anytime we compare, we’re at odds of 50 - 50. This means whether one scenario or another, we are going to lose.

The question is why do we compare ourselves to others? Do we feel we must have a position in this world because we felt left out? Do we feel extremely insignificant in this vast world?

What if we trust that each of us is unique, and we all have various exceptional ways to make Allah satisfied with us? We are blessed with skills and capabilities that can distinctively shape the world for better. We have faith that Allah doesn’t burden our souls and He only gives the tests which are exclusively ours and which we can handle.

We must be content in understanding that, Allah is the Most Merciful, and he will judge our deeds in the context of the diffi-

culties and eases of our life and person.

And that Allah ‫س بحان وتعاىل‬knows us best, and knows others and their deeds and their challenges best.

Only if we swap our attitudes from comparison to contentment.

So how can this world change from Arrogance and Jealousy to Empathy and Thankfulness?

Names has been changed o protect the privacy of the person whose story we are about to relate

t is said, just as health is a blessing, illness too is a blessing – in fact many times the latter may be a greater blessing. My dear friend Nafeesa shares her experiences

as she found Epilepsy to be one of Allah’s greatest gifts for her.

From the age of twelve to twenty Nafeesa suffered about thirty seizures, although some of them were years apart. From immense psychological pain to five shoulder dislocations, head injuries and countless cuts and bruises, her illness was never easy for her. But Nafeesa decided from day one that she would bear everything with a positive perspective since according to hadith a believer is always in a win-win situation. The Prophet ‫صیل ہللا علیہ وسمل‬ said: Amazing is the affair of the believer as there is good for him in every matter, and this is not the case with anyone except the believer. If he experiences pleasure, he thanks Allah and it is good for him. If harm befalls him, he is patient and it is good for him. (Sahih Muslim)

(Continued on page 26)

(Continued from page 25)

Thus, one of the first things Nafeesa learnt from Epilepsy was humility. When Nafeesa first began having seizures she never encountered any physical pain. But when the seizure would begin, she’d be conscious for a few moments and watch helplessly as her arms would be twisting and jerking uncontrollably. The psychological pain she would feel then was much worse than physical pain.

One day her mother said to her, “Nafeesa, maybe Allah is trying to tell you something by showing you how helpless we as humans really are.”

Nafeesa pondered over her mother’s words as she realized that she did need to improve her attitude regarding certain things and so she started changing herself. A few months later many people said to her that she had become a much softer and more easy-going person as compared to how she was before.

Nafeesa’s main strength was her connection with Allah and the Qur’an and Sunnah. Since Allah is Al-Hayy, the Ever-Living, the Qur’an too is an immortal book – any person in any age can relate to any of its verses.

Once, after waking up from a seizure, she was lying in bed and crying to herself. It’s worth mentioning that until the age of sixteen, Nafeesa never cried once over her illness. Mostly because she believed it was Allah’s will for her, which was no doubt bet-

ter for her. But also, because she hadn’t fully comprehended how her illness could affect her life as well as others. This time she was feeling terribly guilty because there had been no negligence on her behalf but because of her everyone would get so worried. She opened the Qur’an in search of solace and the first words that caught her eye were: … , and He sends His thunderbolts to strike anyone He pleases, ... (13:13) (Continued on page 27)

26 26

(Continued from page 26)

After reading these words, she felt much calmer and a lot less guilty as she realized that it wasn’t her fault, but Allah’s will for her, which is no doubt above all flaws. Then as she continued reading, she couldn’t help but smile: And those who are patient, seeking the countenance of their Lord, and establish prayer and spend from what We have provided for them secretly and publicly and prevent evil with good - those will have the good consequence of [this] home - (13:22) Once, during a class of Sahih Muslim, Nafeesa read the Hadith about the Ethiopian woman who had Epilepsy. The Hadith goes that Ibn Abbas once said to his student, “Should I show you a woman of Paradise?” He replied, “Of course.” Ibn Abbas said, “This black woman came to the Prophet ‫صیل ہللا علیہ وسمل‬ and said, ‘I suffer epileptic seizures and my body uncovers; please pray to Allah for me.’ The Prophet ‫ صیل ہللا علیہ وسمل‬said, ‘If you wish, you can be patient, and you will earn Paradise (in return). And if you wish, I will invoke Allah to cure you.’ She replied, ‘Rather I will remain patient,’ and added, ‘but I become uncovered, so please invoke Allah for me that I remain covered.’” Thus, he prayed for her after which her body would not uncover during seizures.” (Sahih Muslim). Though Nafeesa had read this Hadith before, this

time she was overjoyed when she read it with Imam Nawawi’s explanation. He wrote that this Hadith tells us that seizures carry immense reward

since Muhammad ‫ صیل ہللا علیہ وسمل‬promised Jannah to the woman who suffered them.

Before reading this Hadith Nafeesa had read the Hadith of the people who made two migrations and how Abu-Musa-Ash’ari and his companions ‫رض هللا عنها‬ ‫ ي‬would keep coming to Asma-bint-Umais ‫رض هللا عنها‬to hear this Hadith from her. Asma ‫رض هللا عنها‬ ‫ي‬ ‫ ي‬would say that it was as though nothing in the entire world was more valuable to them than this one Hadith. Nafeesa couldn’t fathom how a single Hadith could be so treasured by someone but she realized that Sahabah ‫رض هللا عنه‬perceived things very differently from the way we do. ‫ي‬ (Continued on page 28)
