One of the concepts in Islam that is rarely fully understood by many people, is the concept of Raj\'at. But that doesn\'t stop us from at the least, understanding the various superficialities of the concept of Raj\'at. So in this episode of Sister Spade, we embark upon a 4-episode short series on the concept of Raj\'at, based upon selections from the book, The Essence of Creation, 3rd edition. Yet, according to Imam Ja\'far al-Sadiq (A), what are said to be the \'Days of Allah\'? And does the Raj\'at include every single human being? What two groups of people will return in the Raj\'at? Will the true awaiters of the 12th Imam (A) be able to return in the Raj\'at? And will the hypocrites or atheists that will return in the Raj\'at, do so willingly or unwillingly? Finally, what is a Dua prescribed by Imam Ja\'far al-Sadiq (A) that can help us to return in the Raj\'at with the appearance of the 12th Imam (A)? To find out more, remember to not touch that dial, as Sister Spade answers for us, \"Who Will Return in the Raj\'at?\" #IslamicPulse #SisterSpade #Life #Questions #Islam #Allah #Quran #Ahlulbayt #Muslim #Shia #RealityCheck #Rajat

With all the different current events going on in the world, we all really need a funny, relaxed, refreshing, and yet eye-opening commentary on it all. Sayyid Shahryar\'s here to humbly shed a little insight into all that\'s going on around the world; past, present, and perhaps even future. In this episode of \'Keepin\' It Real\', we\'re going to be talking about Thanksgiving in our Thanksgiving special, so \'Can You Please Pass the Turkey?!\', as you watch our part 1 of 2 episode titled \'Can You Please Pass the Turkey?!\'. But seriously, what is the reality of this almost mythical event that is celebrating yearly in the United States of America, and is commonly known as \'Thanksgiving\'? And according to the \'Thanksgiving\' myth, where and when did the first glorious \'Thanksgiving\' take place? According to the myth of \'Thanksgiving\', who were the people that attended this mythical first \'Thanksgiving\'? And despite it being an incredibly derogatory term, who does the term \'Injuns\' refer to? According to the myth of \'Thanksgiving\', how long did the first mythical \'Thanksgiving\' take; i.e. how many days? Yet, despite this crazy colonialist propaganda regarding the mythical \'Thanksgiving\', what is the actual historical truth about the first \'Thanksgiving\'? And if the accurate history of the Native Americans was taught in American universities and schools, would we at \'Keepin\' It Real\' even have to talk about the subject? What does Mr. Phillip Deloria, scholar of Native American History at Harvard\'s History Department say about the aforementioned question? According to certain historians, for how many years were the Native Americans living in the Americas, which includes the United States of America? (hint: well over 10,000 years!) What was the name of the Native American tribe that lived in the area of Massachusetts when the infamous Pilgrims arrived and were present in the area when the first historical \'Thanksgiving\' took place? Who was Chief Ousamequin and what does the Native American term \'Sachem\' mean? What does Illuminative.org have to say about all this? What was \'Indian Fever\', where did it come from, and approximately how many Native Americans were killed by it? What was \'King Phillips War\', who was \'King Phillip\', approximately how many people died in this war, and why would we bring it up in this episode where we\'re talking about the myth of \'Thanksgiving\'? What in the world is a \'Moniker\' and what is its relation to white racist supremacism in the context of \'King Phillip\'? And why are Native Americans incorrectly known as \'Indians\' and what does Christopher Columbus have to do with this colossal mishap? And finally, [thank God], who is Chief Metacomet and why do we call him Chief Metacomet ibn Ousamequin, and in the end, what happened to his head and his tribal allies? And please forgive the Islamic Pulse team, because we really do try to keep the host of \'Keepin\' It Real\' from talking this much. And yes, we know, the correct spelling of \'Thanksgiving\' is not \'Tanksgiving\'. but thanks for your help anyways. And kindly don\'t forget to watch our Thanksgiving Special conclusionary episode titled \'Can You Please Pass the Turkey Again?!\' [Emphasis on the \'Again?!\'], which will be released much sooner than you expect.

When Allah loves somebody, what does He do to them as regards to the pleasures of the world? And why does Allah state in the holy Qur\\\\\\\'an that He will endow the good and righteous with blessings, joy, bliss, and pleasures in the Hereafter? Can the joys and pleasures of this transient world be compared to the pleasures and joy of the Hereafter? And when you think about the best days of your life, how long did it really last, especially now that it is long gone? What is the relationship between Taklif (duty) and Takamul (perfection)? And what is the relationship between acting on one\\\\\\\'s duty and Taklif, and the spiritual progress that one makes on their journey towards Allah? Finally, what points are necessary to know if we want to be among those who \\\\\\\"Don\\\\\\\'t Trade The Joys of the Hereafter\\\\\\\"?

Twitter: https://twitter.com/PanahianEN Telegram: https://telegram.me/Panahianen/ ============================== In the Name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful The holy month of Ramadan is a celebration of our spirituality. There is a celebration in the believers’ hearts that they are the special guests of the Almighty God. We see the peak of God’s affection to us in this dear month. More than thinking of how to have affection for God, we should be busy thinking about God’s affection and grace toward ourselves. We should feel ashamed and thankful so that our worshiping during the month of Ramadan be full of emotions and feelings due to these two aspects. We should be thankful for God’s abundant grace and feel ashamed that we are unable to respond appropriately to the Almighty God. Perhaps it’s better if during this holy month of Ramadan, we don’t go to God in order to get something. Rather, we go to Him to respond and thank Him for what He has given us up until now. Many ask for forgiveness, ask for their needs, ask for their future and ask to have a good end. These are good. But we should keep in mind that what is more obligatory is to be thankful about what God has given us. “If you give thanks, I will increase you.” [Qur’an 14:07] If we are thankful, whatever we want will be given to us in more abundance. If we worship God thankfully during the month of Ramadan, then the whole world will see that the Muslims and the believers are the most cheerful people. We also fast during the Eids. Fasting brings cheerfulness. This should be shown to the people of the world. Those who measure societies\' cheerfulness should measure the cheerfulness of the believers and the Islamic nation. They will see that no community is as cheerful as the believers are, especially during the month of Ramadan. In each month of Ramadan, the believers gain one year’s thankfulness, happiness, vitality and cheerfulness. Along with other prayers and supplications, it is necessary for us to remember the Imam of the Time (aj) during the holy month of Ramadan. We feel ashamed and are thankful to the Imam (aj) because he is praying for us. We feel ashamed that with all the claims we make and although we are calling him, we have not yet been able to bring to an end the Imam’s being alone. We are ashamed that we haven’t been able to prove our claim to the people of the world and to prove to our children that we want to help the Imam. There are some people who deserve to be able to help him. But it seems we haven’t all been accepted in this way, because he is still in occultation. The month of Ramadan is a month when Imam Mahdi (aj) should be remembered. The month of Ramadan is a month for worshipping. Perhaps we can say the top of the supplications for the month of Ramadan is the “Iftitah Supplication.”    One fourth of the Iftitah Supplication is about the Imam of the Time (aj) and matters related to him, which are actually outstanding points. I wish we were able to read the Iftitah Supplication every night during this holy month of Ramadan and remember the Imam of the Time (aj). We consider the night before the 15th of Sha’ban to be a night that is related to the Imam of the Time (aj) since this night is the anniversary of his birth. In the same way but due to other aspects, we should consider the month of Ramadan, especially its last ten nights, to be related to the Imam of the Time (aj) and remembering him. During the Nights of Destiny, the file of our deeds is shown to him and he signs our file. The last ten days [of this holy month] are the nights when we should recite the magnificent supplication, “Allahumma Kun Li Waliyyak al-Hujjah…” Whatever we ask for from God, He gives to us based on the signature, management, guardianship and supervision of Imam Mahdi (aj). We pray that the Imam of the Time (aj) himself will intercede for us so that we will have a cheerful month of Ramadan that is filled with remembering Imam Mahdi (Aj). I ask all the believers to pray for me.

What does it mean when it is said in the narrations that everything has a certain kind of respect and sanctity? And in the olden days, what was the sanctity of a riding animal when people used to ride animals? Yet, what is one supposed to do if they are to reprimand or control a riding animal?
