SELAMAT MENYAMBUT AWAL MUHARRAM (MAAL HIJRAH) 1431

PERWAKILAN MUMBAI DOT COM ingin mengucapkan seluruh umat Islam Selamat Menyambut Awal Muharram (Maal Hijrah) 1431 pada 18 Disember 2009. Jangan lupa baca doa akhir tahun selepas solat asar dan doa awal tahun selepas solat maghrib nanti.

Hari Awal Muharram atau juga dikenali sebagai Hari Maal Hijrah merupakan suatu hari yang penting bagi umat Islam kerana ia menandakan peristiwa penting yang berlaku dalam sejarah Islam. Ini adalah kerana ia memperingati penghijrahan Nabi Muhammad dari Kota Makkah ke Madinah pada tahun 622 Masihi. Ia berlaku pada 1 Muharam dimana ia merupakan hari pertama Takwim Hijrah.

PERWAKILAN MUMBAI ingin mengambil kesempatan ini untuk mengucapkan kepada semua kaum Muslimin dan Muslimat, baik yang berada di Mumbai mahupun yang berada dimana-mana jua “Selamat Menjalankan Ibadah Puasa Di Bulan Ramadhan”. Hayatilah setiap kelebihan yang ada di bulan Ramadhan itu nanti.

“Hai orang-orang yang beriman, diwajibkan atas kamu berpuasa sebagaimana diwajibkan atas orang-orang sebelum kamu agar kamu bertaqwa.”

(Al-Baqarah : 183).

NISFU SYA’ABAN

To all brothers and sisters in Islam,

PERWAKILAN MUMBAI sincerely welcomes Nisfu Sya’aban.

Nisfu Sya’ban falls on the 15th day of the month of Sya’ban according to the Hijrah calendar and during this month, Muslims are encouraged to perform special prayers in the hopes of obtaining blessings and forgiveness from Allah (SWT) and to fast. It’s a common practice for Muslims to recite the Surah Yasin after the Maghrib prayers on the evening of Nisfu Sya’ban, followed by special doa or prayers.

Therefore, Nisfu Sya’aban is not just a clear indicator that the blessed month of Ramadan is around the corner but we should also regard Nisfu Syaaban as a sign that we should look into ourselves, to do some self-accounting on our past deeds. May the coming days witness a positive change in our community, and ourselves. Let us always have taqwa to Allah s.w.t.

Amin.

Aishah tells us: “I never saw the Prophet (peace be upon him) fast an entire month except for the month of Ramadân. I never saw him fast more often in any other month than he did in Sha`bân.” [Sahîh al-Bukhârî (1969) and Sahîh Muslim (1156)]
