              Welcome to the board! Enjoy ur stay here InshaAllah. Here is something as a reminder for all of us :).

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "Iman has sixty odd or seventy odd branches. The uppermost of all these is the Testimony of Faith: `La ilaha illallah' (there is no true god except Allah) while the least of them is the removal of harmful object from the road. And shyness is a branch of Iman.''
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) was even shier than a virgin behind her veil. When he saw something which he disliked, we could perceive it on his face.
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

         Last hadith is one of my favourites. May Allah (awj) make our eeman stronger, and make us the real follower of Prophet Muhammad (saw). Ameen.

Wassalam.

[size=2][font=Verdana][color=Navy]                       Bear......  :D ........ lol Oh, I call all the ""little""  kids I come in contact with (their name)+Bear:
Example: AndyBear, AmyBear, lol..... when they do something wrong ..... "Oh you silly Bear !!" [hr]
When you asked if Bhaloo ment "Good"...... I thought
Hmmm....... Yah...... he's a Good-Guy  ;) ...... some say Wise-Guy   :P

........But actually, we all know he is  really a "" [u] Wise [/u]  ""  Guy.

......... But Bear......... I never thought Bear ... lol :-*
[hr]
btw: it has dawned on me that it's not nice to find humor in someones name...... just the situation I enjoyed...... Bear is actually nice..... that's why I add it to all the names for the kids......... it's Affectionate.... although I've done it for so long now that I'm not sure where it originated at ? ..... In anycase...... I didn't mean anything bad

[quote]I am a new resident and am very confuse where to start  ???[/quote]

:-* Thought I'd share a roadmap a friend sent me in an e.mail..... It's a roadmap to Jannah..... but Madina must be along the route. My only caution: I wouldn't try to park here  ;) ... last time I saw pictures of the parking lot  :o (you'll have to ask the brothers about that one/their keeping it hidden in the health club) ...... just stay on the Road to Jannah..... you'll be fine !!

In any case, there are some really great brothers and sisters here,  I hope you enjoy your time ..... Insha Allah:

[size=2][font=Verdana][color=Black][u]Roadmap to Jannah[/u]
Take Adam and Eve avenue until you come to the intersection of Habil (Abel) road, and Qabil (Cain) street; merge right on Habil (Abel) and continue for the next twenty miles till you come to Noah's Ferry.

Take the ferry to Safety Land, ignore the majority of other travel agencies’ directions, and arrive at Abraham's Super Highway also known as High way One God Only (1).

Follow Abraham but avoid the exit of Sodom and Gomorrah townships until you get to Moses lane but pass Gold and Greed bridges and take it to Jesus' Mercy road. Here you will encounter a lot of confusion, streets are not well marked, and many peddlers along the road are giving away maps with conflicting directions to travelers. The Romans have renamed Pagans’ path as Jesus' mercy road.

If you are not sure about the authenticity of Jesus' mercy road, review your map. See if Jesus' mercy path is a continuation of Abraham’s Super Highway. If it is a continuation you are fine, but still proceed with caution. If you have diverged, make a U-turn and go back to Abraham’s high way (1) and re-try again.

Continue on True Jesus' road, if you do not see the following signs along the path, you should stop and review your map again. Maps for this path have been tampered with, we recommend the Barnabas edition street map to get to the Unity of God congregation, Immaculate conception corner, and Love thy neighbor community center.

Avoid to show the Roman Traffic police your Barnabas street map, it is banned, they will confiscate it and you will be forced to use the only authorized official map - the Paul street map which was drawn to direct the motorists to Rome. For that reason there is a lot of lost traffic on this road. On the other hand True Jesus road is found on the Barnabas street map, but only few people have access to this map.

Keep on Jesus' Mercy road until you find Muhammad’s sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam Sunnah Expressway. Stay on this expressway and do not be lured to rest areas along the expressway. Beware of the highway robbers, by insuring your vehicle with Dhikr security systems. All vehicles secured with Dhikr Security Systems will be protected from assaults by robbers (Satan).

Make sure that you have enough fuel. The highest grade fuel for this long and tiring trip is the Taqwa grade fuel. Make sure you demand this brand when you stop for refueling. Lighten the load on your vehicle, carry only the most important items for this trip: two meters of white cloth, good deeds and prayers of your kids is all you need. Excess weight is allowed only if it is more of the above. Other items will only slow you down or cause you to loose sight of where you are heading, and you risk losing the coverage of Dhikr Security systems, thereby becoming an easy target for the Robbers.

You need to check your vehicles safety features periodically by reading your vehicles manual - the Holy Quran. Your steering wheel must be calibrated by the Sunnah Calibration method, batteries must be charged with Iman, the engine needs to be tuned up with Ikhlas and your tires must be properly inflated with Ihsan. Most important of all, you must test the entire vehicle with the tawheed check list.

It does not matter if most parts of your vehicle are performing right, if a single part in your vehicle does not perform according to specifications of Tawheed (its conditions) your vehicle will break down and again the robbers will rob you of what is left. The overall performance of your vehicle depends on the performance of the weakest part in your vehicle, so routinely check these weak points, they may be detrimental to your trip.

There are many milestones on Muhammad’s road, and these milestones will assure you that you are on the right track. Do not worry that there are not any people on this road; just because you are alone on this road do not think that you are driving the wrong way on a one way street. Loving Allah more than anything else, loving the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam and his companions, who supported him when he was oppressed, following all his teachings, responding with patience and acceptance to lack of worldly goods, hunger, loss of family members are but some of the milestones and glad tidings that you are on the right track.

Also this road will be paved with pain, hard work, struggle with yourself and others and Iblis, the Robber, and all things that are not appealing to the soul. Never lay your guard, this trip is not over until it is over. Keep dhikr your guard, good deeds your luggage and do not lose to focus on where you are going, so you may endure the pain of this trip. When you finally arrive to your destination, Al-Jannah, you will forget all the pain.

[quote]Concrete jungle of Johannesburg[/quote]
:-*..... that just sounds nice... has a ring to it !!
I'm enjoying some poetry today..... & thought to share:

I Am Muslim
-- Author Unknown

I am a Muslim
And God I praise
For all his blessings
My voice I raise
In one God I believe
No equal has He
Lord of the universe
Compassionate to me
Muhammad the Prophet
Taught me the way
To be honest and truthful
Throughout everyday
The Holy Qur'an
To life is my guide
Its teachings I follow
By it I abide
Islam is my religion
Preaches good daeds
Mercy and Kindness
To the right path it leads
Upon all humanity
God showers his grace
Regardless of colour
Nationality or race
Through working together
Our hopes increase
To live in a world
Full of love and peace
Full of love and peace
I am a Muslim
And God I praise
For all His blessings
My voice I raise

May Allah(swt) hold you ever so close -- Ameen

Welcome to the board  :-)!  :)

I am fairly new here too.  I have learned a lot from the brothers and sisters and have come to feel like they are my family on-line.

I was nervous the first time or two that I posted, especially with questions, but I have received good advise for here.

Enjoy your stay here!
