Three things are indispensible for a believer in all conditions of life

Three things are indispensible for a believer in all conditions of life:

1. he should keep the commandments of Allah;

2. he should abstain from the haraam; and

3. he should be pleased with the decree of Providence.

Thus the least that is expected of a believer is that he should not be without these three things. So it is meant that he should make up his mind for this and talk to himself about this and keep his organs engaged in this.

Futuh Al-Ghaib (Revelations of the Unseen)

Was lookiing through your bog...its quite interesting the topic you brought forward ... but you might want to consider to prob have a section which gives short explainations to certain issues like tatoos are prohibited and hijab.

I am pretty sure some peeps like me are interested but do not have the patience to read such lengty explainations. Neverthless interesting

Thank you berrygaz. I understand what you mean. But the lengthy explanations were necessary to explain such things in detail. Short explanations may not answer all the questions one might have to avoid tattoos or accept hijab. The objective is to be as clear as possible. I hope you'd understand.
