The word “Islam” is derived from the root “salama”, it means to be at peace or to have security. Therefore, a Muslim is a person that surrenders, submits and obeys the laws of almighty God and through this submission; attains peace and security for themselves.
Islam the Eternal Path to Peace
Our most beloved Prophet Muhammad (SAW) offered supplication (du'a) at times of calamity on a
number of occasions in the time of extreme distress and need thus
beseeching Allah (SWT) for His Mercy and benevolence. Rasulullah (SAW) read Qunut Nazilah
for the salvation of the weak and oppressed in Makkah.
ThisQunutwas alsoread by Rasulullah (SAW)whenthe incidentmassacre of the 60al hafiz companions for a monthbased onthe followinghadith:
Meaning: The Prophetsallallahu`alaihiwasallamhave readqunutprayernot only atdawnwhen they massacre his al hafiz companions.
-Bukhari and Muslim-
HOW TO RECITE QUNUT NAZILAH
Qunut Nazilah can be recited at all obligatory prayers: Zuhur, Asar, Maghrib, Isya’ and Subuh. It can be recited at the final rak’at after getting up from Ruku’ for I’tidal.
The prayer is recited while standing for I’tidal. There are three ways to recite the prayer. The imam may select any of the followings:
Recite the Qunut as normally recited during Subuh prayer.
Recite the Qunut Nazilah only as per attached.
Recite the Subuh Qunut followed by Qunut Nazilah.
Reminder:
If the Imam does not memorise the Qunut Nazilah attached, recite the Qunut as normally recited in Subuh prayer. Then, Qunut Nazilah can be recited after the prayer.
The Imam needs to inform the followers that Qunut will be recited in the prayer so that they can “ameen” the prayer.
QUNUT NAZILAH
Which means:
“'O Allah, we seek Your help; we beseech Your forgiveness; we seek guidance from You; we affirm our faith in You; we bow to Thee and we praise You; we are grateful and do not infidel; we reject and abandon everyone who forsakes You.
‘O Allah, You alone do we worship; unto You alone we
pray; and before You alone we prostrate in worship; unto You alone we
strive and implore;we cherish hope in Your mercy; we fear Your chastisement;most certainly, Your stern punishment will overtake those who reject the truth.
‘O Allah, may honour be with Islam and Muslims. Stop all kinds of
tyranny and hostility. Help our oppressed brethren wherever they are.
Lift them from their hardships, plagues, war and hostility. O Allah,
save us from all evil and do not make our place the place of calamity;
avert us from any disaster because only You can avert it, O Allah.”
"He who believes in Allah and the Day of Resurrection, do not let him harm his neighbor. And whosoever has faith in Allah and the Day of Judgement, let him speak only of what is good or else remain silent."
The company of a good friend is like an owner of musk; if you don’t buy anything, you will get the smell of it. The company of a bad friend is like the blacksmith’s bellows; if you are not affected by its black dirt, you will be touched by its smoke. –Prophet Muhammed (saw)
I will tell you the distinguishing marks of a person for whom the fire of Hell has been made unlawful and who is a forbidden person for the Hellfire to consume:
He is a man who bears a sweet temper, tender heart and is soft-spoken. – Prophet Muhammed (saw)
THE CHOSEN ONE
Inscribed on the hilt of the Prophet's sword: 'Forgive him who wrongs you; join him who cuts you off; do good to him who does evil to you, and speak the truth although it be against yourself.'
