 On Monday, a group of community leaders and activists launched the Check the Label campaign in time for Ramadan in Tower Hamlets, London. The campaign lead by Friends of Al Aqsa and Easy Talk aims to raise the importance of boycotting Israeli dates in the Muslim Community this Ramadan.
Abdulla Almamun, co-ordinator for Easy Talk said ‘We will be ensuring that every mosque in Tower Hamlets, for the duration of the month of Ramadan, will be promoting the boycott in Friday sermons. Our members will be outside the mosques ,distributing literature to remind people not to break their fasts with Israeli dates. |

| AssalamuAlaikum today I prayed jummah at the East London Mosque and Shaykh Abdul Qayyum’s khutba was based around Satan and his challenge to the children of Adam, that he will try and lead us astray. Allah azz wa Jal has said in many verses in the Quran that Satan is an open enemy for us and that we should never take him as our friend.
So by deceit he [Satan] brought about their fall. And when they both had tasted of the tree, their nakedness became apparent to them and they began to cover themselves with leaves from the Garden. Their Lord called out to them, "Did I not forbid you that tree and tell you both that Satan is your open enemy? (Al-A`raf 7:22) |

 As the plane starts its decent into Cairo, the first thing you notice about Cairo is how densely populated it is. Building after building compact with the people walking around and the cars driving like there’s no tomorrow. They break at the last minute and as a driver from London I was shocked at the level of danger these guys ignore as the Cab driver took us to down town Cairo. One of the other things that you will notice about Egypt is its sheer beauty; truly Allah SWT has blessed this land with some of the most breath taking sites. You have the pyramids in Giza, the mountains in Sinai and the coastal resort of Dahab. |

| Jummah Khutba Feedback (24.04.09)
I prayed Jummah at the East London Mosque today and Sheikh Abul Husain’s khutba was based on the topic of Istighfar and the ways in which we should seek the forgiveness of Allah azza wa Jal. We know that when we transgress and commit sin, we must repent to Allah SWT and we must be sincere when it comes to repentance. There are a few verses that talk about this:
And those who, when they do an evil thing or wrong themselves, remember Allah and implore forgiveness for their sins--Who forgiveth sins save Allah only?--and will not knowingly repeat (the wrong) they did. Surah Al Imran (135) |
