It is said that one of the wolah (regional governors)of the second Muslim Caliph, Omar-ibn-Al-Khatab, requested permission and funding to make a wall around a city to safeguarded it from attacks.  The just and righteous Caliph wrote back to his regional governor declining his request saying "aminha bei al-adl" (safeguarded it by maintaining justice).

I got this wonderful short story, but i was just wondering that it is also the way to protect our homes. Do we Muslims protect our homes by justice in our homes, with our Muslim parents, brothers, sisters, wives, children and everyone in the house?

Just to borrow an interesting quote from Shaykh Hamza, he told that someone asked him about the Ayah "Ar-Rijalu Qawwamoon Alan Nisa" (Men are Qawwam over women) and Shaykh Hamza asked him, where are the Rijal? and why don't you complete the whole Ayah. "because Allah has given the one more (strength) than the other".. Allah defined Rijal in Quran as men who do Jihad, pay Zakat, forbid evil and spread good.!! Women don't have an obligation to do it. :) He asked him Where are those men? show me those men!. He also remarked something great and it is soo  true, "We all remember the Ayah we like, and normally you can tell a Muslim by the Ayah we say!"..:)

Just a thought about protecting our homes in these difficult times!!. I was just thinking, we should all think about it!
