I had a thought which I wanted to share. Throughout the Holy Quran and Hadiths of the Holy Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, muslims have been advised to be merciful to others. For example, a Hadith found in Jami At Tirmidhi, number 1924, advises that those who show mercy to the creationContinue reading “PODTHOUGHT: TRUE MERCY”
PODNEWS: GETTING ALONG WITH PEOPLE
I read a news article a while ago which I wanted to briefly discuss. It reported on interacting in a positive way with one’s colleagues at work in order to function as a team.

PODTAFSEER: CHAPTER 2 – AL BAQARAH, VERSE 75 – PART 9
“Do you covet [the hope, O believers], that they [people of the book] would believe for you while a party of them [their scholars] used to hear the words of Allah and then distort it [i.e., the Torah] after they had understood it while they were knowing?” Chapter 2 Al Baqarah, verse 75.

PODNEWS: FINAL WORDS
I read a news article a while ago which I wanted to briefly discuss. It reported on the last words spoken by famous people before they passed away. It is common for people to enquire and pay extra attention to the final words of others whether they are passing away or leaving on a longContinue reading “PODNEWS: FINAL WORDS”
PODTHOUGHT: YOUR JOB
I had a thought which I wanted to share. If a person was hired for a specific job, such as painting a house, they are highly unlikely to receive their wages if they decide to do another duty, such as hovering the house. Even though what they decided to do is not bad but asContinue reading “PODTHOUGHT: YOUR JOB”
