A beautiful HADITH about oppression.

Narrated Anas: Allah's Apostle (SALLALLAHU ALAIHI WASALLAM) said, 'Help your brother, whether he is an oppressor or he is an oppressed one. People asked, 'O Allah's Apostle! It is all right to help him if he is oppressed, but how should we help him if he is an oppressor?' The Prophet said, 'By preventing him from oppressing others.'

ALHUMDULILLAH, today onwards i am starting a new post thread for easy iftar recipes, i know am a little late to start this off but here goes. INSHAALLAH, i will try to post recipes as often as i can. Here are some easy egg rolls recipe that you can try at home for iftar.

Easy egg rolls:

In a bowl, mix all the ingredients.


Make the egg rolls using the pastry sheets, for new cooks here are the step-by-step instructions of folding the rolls:
Take a sheet of pastry. I usually use these.


Spread horizontally about 1 tbsp of the mixture onto the center of the sheet. (as shown in pic)

Now fold the sheet halfway from bottom to center. (as shown in pic)


Fold in the right and left edges simultaneously to the centre of the first fold. Dap a little water at the top edge to help in keeping the rolls intact. Now roll it all together to the top edge. Heat oil in a frying pan and shallow fry the rolls till golden brown.


The rolls are ready to be devoured at Iftar.

A beautiful HADITH about making effort.

Sayyidina Abu Huraira (Radhi ALLAHU Anhu) reported that the Prophet (SALLALLAHU ALAIHI WASALLAM) said,
“If a man removes a difficulty out of a Muslim’s worldly difficulties then ALLAH will remove from him a difficulty of the difficulties on the day of resurrection and if anyone makes it easy for a hard-pressed in this world then ALLAH will make it easy for him in this world and the next, and if anyone conceals a Muslim’s faults in this world then ALLAH will conceal his faults in this world and the next. Indeed, ALLAH continues to help the slave as long as the slave continues to help his brother."

(Bukhari)

busy as a bee !

ALHUMDULILLAH, the past few weeks went very busy hence i was unable to update my blog. But now i have a list of interesting posts to publish, INSHAALLAH. Most of you who live where i live will be knowing about the summer festival thats going on here - global cultural fair by aramco, weekly fireworks, dolphin show, circus and interactive shows at the malls, etc. INSHAALLAH, i will be posting some of the event's pics/videos but for now here is some of my crochet work that i was busy in simultaneously. These are diamond shaped kiddy purses.



The back of the purses are made of normal hexagons which were made following no pattern, ALHUMDULILLAH. The flowery hexagons are crocheted using the pattern from colour in a simple life. i surfed the net for a simple bag strap but didn't find any so i simply crocheted a chain of desired length with two colors of yarn, turned, double crocheted all the way thru from the 4th chain and the mission for quick simple strap was completed, ALHUMDULILLAH.
