- Al-Imam Al-Azam Abu Hanifa
Good site about Al-Imam Al-Azam Abu Hanifa. His life, hard work and rise to greatness as he memorized innumerable hadiths. He was brought up so as to become a great judge, but he became an imam al-madhhab. He had a superior, and amazingly keen intellect. In ilm al-fiqh, he attained an unequalled grade in a short time. His name and fame became world-wide.

Review It - Bid'ah (Innovation in Religion)
To include anything in religion practices not made so by Allah or the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wasallam), or to do it with the hope of attaining merit or propinquity to Allah, or to follow it with the same meticulous care as a religious observance is acted upon, amounts to bid'ah. It really means grafting of a man-made system to the Divine Order of laws or creation of a state within state.

Review It - Important Notes For Intending Pilgrims
When Allah bestows His Favour on any fortunate person to perform Hajj, he should not delay at all in the execution of that duty; particularly the Fardh Hajj. Under no circumstances should it be postponed unnecessarily, because this only affords Shaytaan the opportunity to involve one in unnecessary activities which will keep him so busy that the journey to the Blessed Places is postponed or cancelled.

Review It - Me'raaj (The Ascension)
The Prophets sent by Allah were the most honored and revered people on earth. Among them, the greatest honour was bestowed on none other than the greatest of all creation, the Holy Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam. Perhaps the most significant visual display of this superior status was his ascension (Me'raaj) to the seven skies and beyond.

From out of the four sacred months, Muharram has been blessed with certain specific virtues. The Holy Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam said: The best of fasts besides the month of Ramadhaan is the fasting of AllahÂ’s month of Muharram and the best of salaat besides the fardh (compulsory) salaat is the tahajjud salaat (performed after midnight before dawn).

Review It - Qurbaani (Sacrifice)
Any adoration (ibaadah), whether physical or pecuniary (involving wealth), can only be correct if performed strictly according to the principles of Sharee'ah. Qurbaani is also one of the ibaadaat and it will be rendered invalid if the principles laid down by the Sharee'ah are not followed precisely in its execution.
