“Our Lord! You have not created this in vain. Glory to You! Save us, then, from the chastisement of the Fire”.[3:191]

Believers! When you stand up for Prayer wash your faces and your hands up to the elbows, and wipe your heads, and wash your feet up to the ankles. And if you are in the state of ritual impurity, purify yourselves (by taking a bath). But if you are either ill, or travelling, or have satisfied a want of nature or have had (intimate) contact with women and find no water, then have recourse to clean earth and wipe your faces and your hands therewith.[5:6]

A man found a purse containing one hundred Diners.
So he went to the Prophet (sallallähu alaihi wasallam) (and informed him about it), he said, “Make public announcement about it for one year”

He did so, but nobody turned up to claim it, so he again went to the Prophet (sallallähu alaihi wasallam) who said, “Make public announcement for another year.”

He did, but none turned up to claim it. He went to him for the third time and the Prophet (sallallähu alaihi wasallam) said, “Keep the container and the string which is used for its tying and count the money it contains and if its owner comes, give it to him; otherwise, utilize it.”

[Bukhari Book:42 No:608]

“O Allah, You know me better than I know myself, and I know myself better than these people who praise me. Make me better than what they think of me, and forgive those sins of mine of which they have no knowledge, and do not hold me responsible for what they say.”
– Abu Bakr al-Siddiq RA

Every soul will taste death, and you will only be given your [full] compensation on the Day of Resurrection. So he who is drawn away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise has attained [his desire]. And what is the life of this world except the enjoyment of delusion. Surah ‘Āli `Imrān (3:185)

Allah’s Apostle (Sallallähu alaihi wa sallam) said, “Whoever after listening to the Adhan says,

‘Allahumma Rabba hadhihi-d-da’ watit-tammati was-salatil qa’imati, ati Muhammadan al-wasilata wal-fadilata, wab’ athhu maqaman mahmudan-il-ladhi wa’ adtahu

(O Allah! Lord of this perfect call (of not ascribing partners to You) and of the regular prayer which is going to be established! Kindly give Muhammad the right of intercession and superiority and send him (on the Day of Judgment) to the best and the highest place in Paradise which You promised him)’,

then intercession for me will be permitted for him on the Day of Resurrection”).

[Bukhari 0588]

“Whoever will come to Allah with a good deed shall have ten times as much, and whoever will come to Allah with an evil deed, shall be requited with no more than the like of it. They shall not be wronged.” [6:160]

“And whatever of misfortune befalls you, it is because of what your hands have earned. And He pardons much” [42:30]

Confirming the importance of ecological protection in Islam, a new book will be launched in Malaysia on conserving the environment with an Islamic perspective, citing verses of the Noble Qur’an and Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) sayings.

“This book is produced as a reference for Muslims, particularly leaders who are imam, religious speakers and teachers who can help in the effort to conserve the environment,” Mustapha Hassan, director-general of the Institute of Islamic Understanding Malaysia (Ikim), told Malaysia Star on Monday, May 21.

“Citing Qur’anic verses, hadiths and parables of prophets as well as presenting comprehensive facts, the handbook can benefit all levels of society in contributing to the protection of the environment and wildlife in Malaysia,” he added.

Realizing the threats towards the environment and wildlife species, the new book, prepared by World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) Malaysia and Ikim, will be launched next July.

This book is produced as a reference for Muslims, in particular leaders who comprise of people such as Imams, religious speakers and teachers in efforts to champion environmental issues.

Mustapha said the publication was in line with Ikim’s function, which is to carry out research on the role of Islam and Muslims in facing challenges due to the ever-changing global situation.

“Through this handbook, we would like to emphasize that problems and issues related to the environment and wildlife have relevance to Islamic teachings,” he said.

Preparing for the book, Ikim authors visited two WWF Malaysia project sites for endangered species.

These sites include the Belum-Temengor Forest Complex in Gerik, Perak, and Setiu, Terengganu.

“Both locations are habitats for various endangered species including the two national icons, the Malayan tiger and turtle, which will be given particular focus in this handbook,” Mustapha said.

On-going Efforts

The project was introduced as a continuation and an extension to the on-going activities carried out based on the Islamic approach in wildlife species conservation.

“Among the efforts made by WWF-Malaysia with the local communities, together with IKIM include the preparation of a Friday sermon text entitled ‘Environmental conservation is our Collective Responsibility’ for 428 mosques throughout Terengganu in 2008,” WWF-Malaysia’s Chief Executive Officer, Dato’ Dr. Dionysius Sharma, told WWF website.

“In Jeli, Kelantan, we started a similar initiative with a sermon entitled, ‘Animals are creatures that need protection’ which was delivered by a local Imam.

“A workshop which was participated by Imams and religious teachers was also organized in Perak,” he added.

WWF-Malaysia (World Wildlife Malaysia),is a national conservation trust which currently conducts more than 75 projects that encompass various environment protection aspects.

Since 1972, WWF-Malaysia has been actively conducting important conservation projects, such as saving endangered animal species such as tigers and turtles, to protecting our highland forests, rivers and seas.

I am full of Darkness so bring with you The

From the evil of that which He created
And from the evil of darkness when it settles
And from the evil of the blowers in knots
And from the evil of an envier when he envies.”

Surely We have brought them a Book which We expounded with knowledge; a guidance and a mercy to those who believe. Surah Al-A’raf [7:52]

Know that the life of this world is but amusement and diversion and adornment and boasting to one another and competition in increase of wealth and children – like the example of a rain whose [resulting] plant growth pleases the tillers; then it dries and you see it turned yellow; then it becomes [scattered] debris. And in the Hereafter is severe punishment and forgiveness from Allah and approval. And what is the worldly life except the enjoyment of delusion. (57:20)

O our Lord! Do not hold us responsible if we forget or make a mistake. O our Lord, do not lay on us a burden such as You laid on those before us. O our Lord, do not impose upon us that which we have not the strength (to bear). Pardon us, and forgive us, and have mercy on us. You are our Lord-master, so help us against the unbelieving people
[surah Baqarah; 2:286]
