All Praise Belongs to Allah (swt), and May the Salah and Salam of Allah (swt) be upon our beloved Messenger (Peace and Blessings be Upon Him)

We would like to push our appeal for Palestine again this year. Feeding the Fasting - the Guardians of Masjid al Aqsa http://www.justgiving.com/feedthefasting we would like your support financially and by spreading the word about this appeal inshaAllah. This project has been running for several years you may find some facts here.

Many of you would have seen the picture on the right, it was even broadcasted (video) on the news channels back in 2000. A footage which is one of thousands of incidents that have taken since the British meddled with the middle eastern politics and aided Zionist to start an ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people. Palestinians took in the Jews with open arms concerned that Hitler a Christian who took it as a religious obligation to wipe out Jews because they were a germ to society .

It is with the intention to rekindle the love, affection and devotion of Muslims to Masjid Al-Aqsa that we present these Ahadith. Since the Prophet (saw) showed such great concern and inculcated into the Companions (ra - may Allah be pleased with them all), the need to liberate Masjid Al-Aqsa and Jerusalem. I hope that we can adorn the teachings of our noble Prophet (saw) and take the urgent practical steps required to safeguard Masjid Al-Aqsa.

Some of the reasons why Masjid Al-Aqsa should form an important aspect of a believer's dedication, where many pious individuals have given their wealth and lives, include the fact that Masjid Al-Aqsa is:

    * the first Qiblah of the Muslims

    * the station of Al-Isra and Al-Miraj (the miraculous journey of Mohammed saw)

    * the second house of Allah built on earth

    * the place where hundreds of Messengers of Allah are buried

    * the place where many companions are buried

    * a place where miracles were shown by Allah's will

    * a place which Allah Himself calls a 'blessed place'

    * referred to directly and indirectly, 70 times in the Holy Quran

    * the place where Angels have descended with Allah's message

    * the only place on earth where all the Messengers of Allah prayed at the same time led by the Mohammed (saw)

    * the only Masjid mentioned by name in the Holy Quran a part from the Ka'bah

It is for the above mentioned reasons and many more that we need to understand our responsibilities regarding safeguarding Masjid Al-Aqsa which is in great danger of being demolished by extremist jews.

Masjid Al-Aqsa - The Second House of Allah on Earth

Looking after the guardians of the masjid is vital to keep the lamps glowing in Masjid Al-Aqsa

Abdullah Ibn Umar (ra) relates, I asked the Prophet (saw), "Apostle of Allah, tell us the legal injunction about (visiting) Bayt Al-Maqdis (Jerusalem)." The Apostle of Allah (saw) said, " Go and pray there. If you cannot visit it and pray there, then send some oil to be used in the lamps". (Bukhari)

And our last words are: "All Praise Belongs to Allah The Rabb Al 'Aalameen".

Jazakumullahu Khayran!
