1) Ibn Taymiyyah summarizes the ruling of several Islamic scholars that Muslims should not celebrate or participate in the festivals of other religious groups like Christmas and New Year.
2) The scholars cited evidence from the Quran and hadiths that each religious community should have their own unique festivals and practices, and Muslims should avoid imitating the festivals of non-Muslim groups.
3) Celebrating non-Muslim festivals could lead to adopting other aspects of their religions and being gathered with them on the Day of Judgment instead of Muslims.
Signs of the Last Hour foretold by Prophet MuhammedOne God
The slides reiterates signs that will be shown to mankind before end of this world, as foretold by Prophet Muhammed (pbuh). More than 60% is true and remaining is expected to happen in few years.
Nehemiah was one of the great leaders in the Bible that was used by God to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem. If we would look at Nehemiah’s life, he was greatly used by God. It started with a burden to rebuild the temple which he then lifted up to prayer to the Lord. When he saw the right time, he stepped out of faith and from that, the Lord has just used him mightily. Some time we just really need to step out of faith. That’s faith it’s faith, there is always that part where there is uncertainty. But if we know who our God is and we have covered it with prayer that we can rest assure that the Lord will always be faithful to us. He can use us mightily for this work.

A clause comes in four types; independent, dependent, relative or noun clause. Every clause has at least a subject and a verb. An independent clause, also called a main clause, is a clause that can stand on its own. It contains all the information necessary to be a complete sentence.
The Meaning of the Qur'an is a fresh English rendering of Tafhim-ul-Qur’an, Maulana Syed Abu Ala Moududi’s monumental and masterly Urdu translation of the Qur’an and a selection of his commentary. The translator has undertaken the delicate and difficult task of rendering this work in English under the guidance of the Maulana himself. Here is a work with a difference, by a dedicated scholar of an entirely different sort. An immense wealth of profound understanding of the Qur’an is here, a vast treasure of knowledge and deep insight, and a valuable exposition of some social, political, economic and legal teachings of the Qur’an.
This comprehensive Tafsir answers contemporary questions, and makes the Qur’an fully relevant to the concerns of day, yet it loses nothing of its timelessness nor sacrifices any of the traditional understanding. It demonstrates the unity and coherence of the Qur’an by centring everything on its message, like gems hung on a single string.
This Tafsir is particularly suitable for Muslims with no direct access to the Arabic original.

Shaykh ul-Islām Muhammad ibn ‘Abdil-Wahhāb (d. 1206H) – rahimahullāh – said inNawāqid al-Islām: “The Eighth Nullifier: Mudhāharah (aid, assistance, victory) of the Mushrikūn and assisting them against the Muslims, and the evidence is the statement of the Most High:
And whoever is an ally to them among you – then, indeed, he is (one) of them. Indeed, Allāh guides not the wrongdoing people. [Sūrah al-Mā’idah (5):51]”
The ‘Allāmah, Ibn Hazm (d. 456 H) – rahimahullāh – said in al-Muhallā (5/419): “The Most High said:
And prepare for them what you can of power and steeds of war by which you may the enemy of Allāh and your enemy. [Sūrah al-Anfāl (8):60]
So He made terrorizing them an obligation upon us. Therefore, whoever assisted them with what is carried to them then he has not terrorized them. Nay, he has assisted them in sin and transgression.”
Punishment in the grave is believed in by Muslims.
There are many sins that can cause grave punishment on top of which the shirk "polytheism" which cannot be forgiven if you die before reverting to Allah, believing in his oneness and accepting Islam and beliving in prophet Mohammed as the last messenger of Allah.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

[ English – ] ﺠﻧﻠﺰﻴ
Sheikh-ul-Islam ibn Taymiyyah
2011 - 1432
2. Praise be to Allaah.
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allaah have mercy on him) said in his commentary
on the aayah (interpretation of the meaning), "And those who do not witness falsehood [al-
zoor]…" [al-Furqaan 25:72]
As regards the festivals of the mushrikeen: they combine confusion, physical desires and
falsehood, there is nothing in them that is of any religious benefit, and the instant
gratification involved in them only ends up in pain. Thus they are falsehood, and witnessing
them means attending them.
This aaayah itself praises and commends (those who do not witness falsehood), which
has the meaning of urging people to avoid taking part in their festivals and other kinds of
falsehood. We understand that it is bad to attend their festivals because they are called al-
zoor (falsehood).
It indicates that it is haraam to do this for many reasons, because Allaah has called it al-
zoor. Allaah condemns the one who speaks falsehood [al-zoor] even if no-one else is harmed
by it, as in the aayah forbidding zihaar [a form of divorce in which the man says to his wife
"You are to me like the back of my mother"], where He says (interpretation of the
meaning): "… And verily, they utter an ill word and a lie [zooran]…" [al-Mujaadilah 58:2].
And Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): "… So shun the abomination of idols,
and shun lying speech (false statements) [al- zoor]." [al-Hajj 22:30].
So the one who does al-zoor is condemned in this fashion. In the Sunnah: Anas ibn
Maalik (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: "The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings
of Allaah be upon him) came [to Madeenah] and they had two days in which they would
(relax and) play. He said, "What are these two days?" They said, "We used to play (on these
two days) during the Jaahiliyyah."
The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "Allaah has
given you something better instead of them: Yawm al-Duhaa [Eid al-Adha] and Yawm al-Fitr
[Eid al-Fitr]." (Reported by Abu Dawood).
This indicates clearly that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)
definitely forbade his ummah to celebrate the festivals of the kuffaar, and he strove to wipe
them out by all possible means. The fact that the religion of the People of the Book is
accepted does not mean that their festivals are approved of or should be preserved by the
ummah, just as the rest of their kufr and sins are not approved of. Indeed, the Prophet
(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) went to great lengths to command his ummah
to be different from them in many issues that are mubaah (permitted) and in many ways of
3. worship, lest that lead them to be like them in other matters too. This being different was to
be a barrier in all aspects, because the more different you are from the people of Hell, the
less likely you are to do the acts of the people of Hell.
The first of them is: The hadeeth
"Every people has its festival, and this is our festival" implies exclusivity, that every
people has its own festival, as Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
"For every nation there is a direction to which they face (in their prayers)…" [al-Baqarah
2:148] and "… To each among you, We have prescribed a law and a clear way…" [al-Maa'idah
5:48].
This implies that each nation has its own ways. The laam in li-kulli ["for every", "to
each"] implies exclusivity. So if the Jews have a festival and the Christians have a festival, it
is just for them, and we should not have any part in it, just as we do not share their qiblah
(direction of prayer) or their laws.
The second of them is: one of the conditions set out by 'Umar ibn al- Khattaab (may
Allaah be pleased with him) and agreed upon by the Sahaabah and by all the Fuqaha' after
them is: that those of the People of the Book who have agreed to live under Islamic rule (ahl
al-dhimmah) should not celebrate their festivals openly in Daar al- Islam (lands under Islamic
rule). If the Muslims have agreed to prevent them from celebrating openly, how could it be
right for the Muslims to celebrate them? If a Muslim celebrates them, is that not worse than if
a kaafir does so openly?
The only reason that we forbade them to celebrate their festivals openly is because of
the corruption involved in them, because of the sin or symbols of sin. In either case, the
Muslim is forbidden from sin or the symbols of sin. Even if there was no evil involved apart
from the kaafir feeling encouraged to celebrate openly because of the Muslim's actions, how
can a Muslim do that? The evil involved (in their festivals) will be explained below, in sha
Allaah.
Al-Bayhaqi reported with a saheeh isnaad in Baab karaahiyat al- dukhool 'ala ahl al-
dhimmah fi kanaa'isihim wa'l-tashabbuh bihim yawmi nawroozihim wa maharjaanihim
(Chapter on the abhorrence of entering the churches of ahl al-dhimmah on the occasion of
their New Year and other celebrations): From Sufyaan al-Thawri from Thawr ibn Yazeed from
'Ata' ibn Deenaar who said: 'Umar said: "Do not learn the language of the non-Arabs, do not
enter upon the mushrikeen in their churches on their feast-days, for the wrath (of Allaah) is
descending upon them."
4. 'Umar ibn al-Khattaab said: "Avoid the enemies of Allaah on their festivals."
It was reported with a saheeh isnaad from Abu Usaamah: 'Awn told us from Abu'l-
Mugheerah from 'Abd-Allaah ibn 'Amr: "Whoever lives in the land of the non-Arabs and
celebrates their New Year and their festivals, and imitates them until he dies in that state, will
be gathered with them on the Day of Resurrection."
'Umar forbade learning their languages, and even entering their churches on the day of
their festival, so how about doing some of the things they do on those days, or doing things
that are a part of their religion? Is not going along with their actions worse than learning
their language? Is not doing some of the things they do on their festival worse than just
entering upon them? If divine wrath is descending upon them on the day of their festival
because of what they do, then is not the one who does what they do, or a part of it, also
exposed to the same punishment? Do not the words "Avoid the enemies of Allaah on their
festivals" mean that we should not meet them or join them on those days? So how about the
one who actually celebrates their festivals? 'Abd-Allaah ibn 'Amr clearly stated:
"Whoever lives in the land of the non-Arabs and celebrates their New Year and their
festivals, and imitates them until he dies in that state, will be gathered with them on the Day
of Resurrection."
This implies that the one who joins in with them in all of these matters is a kaafir, or
that doing this is one of the major sins (kabaa'ir) that will doom one to Hell; the former
meaning is what is apparent from the wording.
He mentioned – and Allaah knows best – the one who lives in their land, because at the
time of 'Abd-Allaah ibn 'Amr and the other Sahaabah, they used to forbid open celebration of
kaafir festivals in the Muslim lands, and none of the Muslims imitated them in their festivals;
that was possible only when living in the lands of the kaafirs.
'Ali (may Allaah be pleased with him) refused to even acknowledge the name of their
festivals which were exclusively theirs, so how about actually celebrating them?
Ahmad mentioned the meaning of the reports narrated from 'Umar and 'Ali (may Allaah
be pleased with them) on this topic, and his companions discussed the matter of festivals.
Imaam Abu'l-Hasan al-Aamidi said: the one who is known as Ibn al- Baghdaadi said in his
book 'Umdat al-Haadir wa Kifaayat al-Musaafir: "It is not permitted to attend the festivals of
the Christians and Jews. Ahmad stated this in the report of Muhannaa, and his evidence for
that is the aayah (interpretation of the meaning): 'And those who do not witness falsehood
[al-zoor]…' [al-Furqaan 25:72].
He said: (This is) al-Sha'aaneen and their festivals. He said: The Muslims are to be
prevented from entering upon them in their synagogues and churches."
