The Mercy of God

God granted some people with mercy to help all people in their lives and to consider it as a blessing from God. So, God gave them mercy to make all the good deeds that can help them . Good deeds can be considered in many act such as:

~ helping the weak & old people .
~ The invention of some useful things such as; means of transportation. medical equipments.

For all that, we need to support it all over the world to complete our life in peace & love.

GOOD DEEDS PROJECT 2004-2005

Good helpers Hi to all participants of the forum! This message from the students of Lyceum of exact and natural sciences #5 from Namangan city, Uzbekistan. We want to join this forum and to paticipate in project “Good deeds”. There is a tradition in our Lyceum since 10 years. It is called “Good helpers”. We chose this project because we have already begun these works. For example our students help old people which live not far from our Lyceum, once a week our students help cleaners in their works. Our students visit to sick students. If a student is ill for a long time and couldn’t attend to the lessons all his/her classmates every day come to his/her house by turn and help him/her missing lessons. By this way our students with the help of their friends get a very good results.

We think good deeds affect all people Dear participants of the project we want to know different kinds of deeds. We are waiting your messages.

Thanks,

Mahmuda Abdullayeva.

A prayer for the millions! (TSUNAMI DISASTER)

Dear all,

I had heard about the tidal wave first through casual talk with friends. I guess I was (and most of us are) consumed by everyday life, it didn’t really matter what was happening “out there” in the world. Just a tidal wave, just a few hundred dead. It took about three days for the news to really kick in. As the death toll grew higher by the minute, it just shocked me how many people died just like that in a matter of minutes, hours and days. This morning the death toll was 67,000 and by midnight it was 100,000. And I never even felt it! And when I talked about it, I never felt any kind of emotion what so ever. It was all just “world news” that had nothing to do with me.

But now I can’t believe how all of us will just take the news of the 100,000 people who had died in a matter of three days and simply go on with our lives, unaffected. How can I get up every morning, go to work, study for exams, go out with friends while all this is happening in the world??? I cannot stop thinking of the so many people who were probably near the shore line living their daily lives just got washed away. Just like that! It made me realise how precious and how fragile life really is. I pictured it over and over again in my head, “what if that had been me?”

And now I can’t stop thinking. There’s a feeling inside of me that’s telling me, your time is VERY limited, and soon it will be up! Whether through an international crisis like this one, or whether I grow old to be a hundred, time is LIMITED. I can’t help but feel helpless. I can ofcourse save myself (pray more, make more good deeds and all that) but what about the world??? What have I given to the world, to the strangers thousands of kilometers away who lost half their families? Aren’t they my “brothers and sisters”? What have I given them? Some of them were muslims. And some weren’t, but some were. What did I do to help them get through this tough time?

And then these things start to happen which you have no control over to people who are close to you, or people you know. Disasters in their own little way. On a much smaller scale than the “world news”, but things you never thought would happen to people you love and care for. Yesterday I visited a little boy in the hospital (year and a half, a friend’s son) with first & second degree burns in over 50% of his tiny little body because of an accident that could happen to anyone. The poor kid, I really hope he pulls through. God I really hope he pulls through. I couldn’t help but cry a good deal after I saw him. I can’t even imagine what his parents are going through.

The day will come when we will all be asked about all those people, whether close or not and what we had to offer them. We need to start giving fast! Even a small duaa in our daily prayers. We need to stengthen our Eman for the sake of the whole world. And if nothing else, that is what we all need to offer.

So, my message to you all today is ~ think about the world. Spare a minute of your time and pray. Pray for health and prosperity to the Muslim Ummah. Pray for little Omar in the hospital. Pray for the thousands of children who have been orphaned, the thousands of widowers who have lost loved ones, and the thousands who have lost thier lives in a moment’s glance. They all need your prayers.

The Prophet Mohamed (Peace be Upon Him) once said “give health to your sick with Saddaqa”. I think saddaqas are most needed now for the millions out there.

Please pray.

~Peace out~
