| My visit to Madinah
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Mercy Giving
Before couple of days(exactly two weeks), I had to go to Riyadh ,then I went to Madinah(the city of Mohammad peace be upon him) to go to my friend's marrage there as his hometown is. I had to sit there for around seven days in order to wait for his marrage. What I want to say is that it was my first time to stay for this long. You know that we all get stress and sometimes need to have fun for some days in order to comeback better. I used to go to other countries in order to enjoy life and meet people . my best interset there is to live like people in this country .
In Almadinah everything was not normal there!!! There is something beautiful rather than the dealing of people there. They were so kind to the extent you feel them your relatives!! or best friends. I felt there if I was ...!! I don't know how to express my feeling but I can say I felt something spirtually but my feelings were extraordianry!! I was so happy....!!
However, I believe that without the need of feeling spiruality, people wount make idles and worship. Worshippers due to the need of spirtuality didn't in most of them think of what they worship!!
People must think and study what they believe in in order to fell relax and guarantee the path they are in!! But the poor minds always walk blindly.
Some people believe faked stories about there believes and never study them. They must think of the truth because they will face a life after death according to their believes!! If so, they mustn't not neglect that or walk in the darkness without lights. I think that we must study that and accurately decide where we should go....
I think that I will continue to write about religions because we should study them. For me, I studied Islam and other religions and I found that Islam is the true religion. I also searched in our Islam and I found that we had certain wrong points. I changed my path to be as my mind accept!! but I found also that who search for the truth will find it.
In Islam people varry in deeds as in school, some get excellent while others get good or very good and some may pass while others fail..... This is Islam.. do your best to get the best...

Keeping someone's hair after they die seems a little... well... bunny boiler-esque.
Glad you had a good holiday. Any snapshots? | |

Regarding the hair , I don't have a proof about it but these are Mohammad's companions. Scholars says that the present pictures of his hair or others of what people say he left are not been proved as his. But Khalid bin Alwaleed was a companion of the prophet so he had these with him for sure.
Regarding the pictures, I carried my camera with me but believe me I wasn't able to take photos because I always forget when I go there...
But these are some pictures from Madina, especially for you..    
I think if i took my camera, I would have better but hopefully during the month of Ramadhan I may go there and make pictures especially for altnation. If Allah will me to take them.

I will give you some examples.
If you wated to see a king or a high status person, you may be about to get shocked because of his respectness!! If you met your best actor or player and you were able to sit with him, you may feel unable to believe!! This is for people!! How about the Creator Himself!! Allah...
Before the inventions of cars ,tv or internet ,no one was able to think of them !! So Allah is known by His signs in this life...
He has created us as sinful people. We make sins and ask Him with no partner to help us and forgive us. He is happier with His worshipper more than the mother of her children. So He knows that we make sins.
He gave us signs to discover Him and sent prophets to the world as Jesus and Moses. He made His last message in the middle of the world. In arabia and chose Mohammad peace be upon him to be the last messenger for the world.
Allah knows that the world would be changed and His message will spread all around the world. So He revealed His book (Quran) with evidence from universe and everywhere to show people that His message is true. Islam is the religion of minds and thinking. If someone speaks then he should bring evidence. it is like researches. You should give proofs. Mohammad (oeace be upon him) as a messenger from Allah, speaks with wisdom and truth because Allah tell him and bless him to speak accurately. Also he speaks with evedence and proofs .
Some fo the proofs can be found in this site.. http://www.harunyahya.com
There are many sites came to fake people and Islam as in propaganda. We have minds to study the truth, so we msut use them.,...
This is a youtube movie from the site above..
In order to know more , you can visit Islamic centers there in your country or talk to them.
I will keep with you all as much as I can..

Regarding these buildings, they are nothing in front of the beauty and spirtuality people feel there...
People all around the world visit this city to pray there because a prayer in this mosque equal 1000 prayers in other mosques.
Prophet Mohammad peace be upon him said: "A prayer in my mosque equal to 1000 prayers in other mosques, aprayer in the mosque of Ilia (Jerusalem) equal to 500 prayers in other mosques and a prayer in the Holy Mosque in Makkah equal to 100,000 prayers that other mosques".
People go there to visit these mosques to feel happiness and to get closer from Allah. For me I wish that I visit the mosque of Jerusalem but we are not allowed because of the wars there against our Palestian brothers and due to the prevention from going there. One day I will pray there..Amen Quote:

If you work in your job, you will get good deeds. Whatever you do will cause you to get more deeds. Islam is not built on imaginations or hopes. it is build on true aspects. For example, you must pray as a Muslim but you can shorten prayers on travelling and these are better to Allah than doing them separetly in travelling!! islam give chances to live to enjoy and to live this life. The more you will get is when you practice Islam... You will see its beauty and respectness to people... Quote:

Medinah, please correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't us non muslims not allowed to enter that city?
kinda just like with mecca?
It looks like a really beautiful city, so why would muslims not allow non muslims to enter it? isn't islam supposed to be a very open and welcoming religion? | |

Arabic is a language and whoever speaks Arabic is an Arab as Mohammad (peace be upon him ) said.
Regarding saying that it is a piece of Art and the question you mentioned below I wanna say that Allah created everything and He gave people brain to think and power to build and design . Paradise is better than you ever think. I will give you some pictures..
A picture from Assodah in Abha in Southern region is Saudi Arabia 
This is a picture from Tanumah. 
These are some pictures from An-Namas   
These and the whole life are made by Allah!! Quote:

Islam is opened but now against its principles. No need to enter them both for non-Muslims!!
Thanks for this question, but I can't say rahter than that. As in Rome (Faticaan) we are not allowed to build Mosques as well. Quote:
