Hadithi ya Leo - Adhabu ya Kujiua (The Punishment for Suicide)

Narrated  Abu Huraira:

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Whoever purposely throws himself from a mountain and kills himself, will be in the (Hell) Fire falling down into it and abiding therein perpetually forever; and whoever drinks poison and kills himself with it, he will be carrying his poison in his hand and drinking it in the (Hell) Fire wherein he will abide eternally forever; and whoever kills himself with an iron weapon, will be carrying that weapon in his hand and stabbing his `Abdomen with it in the (Hell) Fire wherein he will abide eternally forever." ( Sahih Al-Bukhari 5778)

Aya ya Leo - Malaika wa Motoni (Angels of Hell)

Na hatukuwafanya walinzi wa Motoni ila ni Malaika, wala hatukuifanya idadi yao hiyo ila kuwatatanisha walio kufuru, wapate kuwa na yakini walio pewa Kitabu, na wazidi Imani wale walio amini, wala wasiwe na shaka walio pewa Kitabu na Waumini, na wapate kusema wenye maradhi katika nyoyo zao na makafiri: Mwenyezi Mungu amekusudia nini kwa mfano huu? Ndio kama hivyo Mwenyezi Mungu humwacha apotee amtakaye, na humwongoa amtakaye. Na hapana yeyote anaye jua majeshi ya Mola wako Mlezi ila Yeye tu. Na haya si chochote ila ni ukumbusho kwa binaadamu.

And We have not made the keepers of the Fire except angels. And We have not made their number except as a trial for those who disbelieve - that those who were given the Scripture will be convinced and those who have believed will increase in faith and those who were given the Scripture and the believers will not doubt and that those in whose hearts is hypocrisy and the disbelievers will say, "What does Allah intend by this as an example?" Thus does Allah leave astray whom He wills and guides whom He wills. And none knows the soldiers of your Lord except Him. And mention of the Fire is not but a reminder to humanity.(Qur'an 74:31)

Jumaa Mubarak!

Aya za Leo - Malaika wanaochukua roho( The Angels who draw the soul)

When Allah Swears on his creation. Which one are you?

Naapa kwa Malaika wanao vuta kwa nguvu roho za watu wabaya. Na kwa wanao vuta kwa utaratibu roho za walio neemeshwa.

I swear by the angels who violently pull out the souls of the wicked. And by those who gently draw out the souls of the blessed. (Qur'an 79:1-2)

Jumaa Mubarak!

Hadithi ya Leo - Kufunga Ashuraa (Fasting on Ashuraa)

Imehadithiwa na Aisha:

Kabila la Quraish, walikuwa wakifunga siku ya Ashura kabla ya uislamu. Mtume wa Allah akawaamrisha Waislamu wafunge hiyo siku mpaka Mfungo wa Mwezi wa Ramadhani ulivyo amrishwa. Ndipo Mtume wa Allah akasema, " Yule anayetaka kufunga siku ya Ashura afunge, na yule asiyetaka kufunga asifunge.

Narrated `Aisha:

(The tribe of) Quraish used to fast on the day of Ashura' in the Pre-Islamic period, and then Allah's Apostle ordered (Muslims) to fast on it till the fasting in the month of Ramadan was prescribed; whereupon the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "He who wants to fast (on 'Ashura') may fast, and he who does not want to fast may not fast." (Bukhari 1893)

Happy Fasting for those fasting on the 9th-11th of Muharam (8th-10th of September).

Aya ya Leo - Zawadi (Reward)

Hakika Mwenyezi Mungu atawaingiza walio amini na wakatenda mema katika Bustani zipitazo mito kati yake. Hakika Mwenyezi Mungu hutenda atakayo.

Indeed, Allah will admit those who believe and do righteous deeds to gardens beneath which rivers flow. Indeed, Allah does what He intends.(Qur'an 22:14)

Jumaa Mubarak!

Hadithi ya Leo - Adhan (Call to Prayer)

Imehadithiwa na Ibn Umar:

Waislamu walivyo wasili Madina, walikuwa wakikusanyika kusali kwa kukadiria muda wake. Enzi hizo, Adhan ya kuwaita watu kuswali ilikuwa haipo. Watu waka pendekeza itumike kengele kama wakristo, na wengine wakapendekeza tarumbeta kama inayotumika na wayahudi, lakini Umar ndio alikuwa wa kwanza kupendekeza itumike sauti ya mtu kuwaita watu kwenye sala. Kwahiyo Mtume wa Allah, akamuamrisha Bilal apande juu na kutangaza Adhan kuita watu kuswali.

Narrated Ibn `Umar:

When the Muslims arrived at Medina, they used to assemble for the prayer, and used to guess the time for it. During those days, the practice of Adhan for the prayers had not been introduced yet. Once they discussed this problem regarding the call for prayer. Some people suggested the use of a bell like the Christians, others proposed a trumpet like the horn used by the Jews, but `Umar was the first to suggest that a man should call (the people) for the prayer; so Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) ordered Bilal to get up and pronounce the Adhan for prayers. (Bukhari 604)

Happy New Islamic Year!

Aya ya Leo - Mbinguni (The Heavens)

Basi akazifanya mbingu saba kwa siku mbili, na akazipangia kila mbingu mambo yake. Na tukaipamba mbingu ya chini kwa mataa na kwa ulinzi. Hichi ndicho kipimo cha Mwenyezi Mungu Mwenye Kujua.

So He ordained them seven heavens in two periods, and revealed in every heaven its affair; and We adorned the lower heaven with brilliant stars and (made it) to guard; that is the decree of the Mighty, the Knowing. (Qur'an 41:12)

Jumaa Mubarak!

Aya ya Leo - Nafsi yako (Your Soul)

Take care of your soul.

 Anaye tenda mema basi anajitendea mwenyewe nafsi yake, na mwenye kutenda uovu basi ni juu ya nafsi yake vile vile; wala Mola wako Mlezi si mwenye kuwadhulumu waja.

Whoever does good, its for his own soul, and whoever does evil, it is against it; and your Lord is not in the least unjust to the servants. (Qur'an 41:46)

Jumaa Mubarak!

Aya ya Leo - Kusamehe (To Forgive)

Na malipo ya uovu ni uovu mfano wa huo. Lakini mwenye kusamehe, na akasuluhisha, basi huyo malipo yake yapo kwa Mwenyezi Mungu. Hakika Yeye hawapendi wenye kudhulumu.

And the recompense of evil is punishement like it, but whoever forgives and amends, he shall have his reward from Allah, surely He does not love the unjust. (Qur'an 42:40)

Aya ya Leo - Malaika (Angels)

Na wakawafanya Malaika, ambao ni waja wa Mwingi wa Rehema, ni wanawake! Kwani wameshuhudia kuumbwa kwao? Ushahidi wao utaandikwa na wao watahojiwa!

And they make the angels-- them who are the servants of the Beneficent Allah, female(divinities). What! did they witness their creation? Their evidence shall be written down and they shall be questioned. (Qur'an 43:19)
Jumaa Mubarak!

Aya ya Leo - Matamanio (Desire)

Mwenye kutaka mavuno ya Akhera tutamzidishia katika mavuno yake, na mwenye kutaka mavuno ya duniani tutampa katika hayo, lakini katika Akhera hana fungu.

(Qur'an 42:20)

Aya ya Leo - Habari (The Message)

And thus We have revealed to you an inspiration of Our command. You did not know what is the Book or [what is] faith, but We have made it a light by which We guide whom We will of Our servants. And indeed, [O Muhammad], you guide to a straight path (Qur'an 42:52)
Jumaa Mubarak Wandugu!

Aya za Leo - Nijengee Mnara - Firauni (Build for me a tower..-Pharaoh )

.. build for me a tower that I may attain the means of access to the heavens, then reach the God of Moses..-Pharaoh

Na Firauni akasema:" Ewe Haman! nijengee mnara ili niweze kupata njia." "Njia za mbinguni ili nikamuone Mungu wa Musa; na kwa yakini ninamjua kuwa ni muongo tu (huyo Musa, lakini nataka kukuonyesheni na nyinyi)." Na hivi ndivyo Firauni alivyopambiwa ubaya wa vitendo vyake na akazuiliwa njia(ya haki); lakini vitimbi vya Firauni havikuwa ila katika kuangamia tu.

And Pharaoh said: O Haman! build for me a tower that I may attain the means of access. The means of access to the heavens, then reach the god of Musa, and I surely think him to be a liar. And thus the evil of his deed was made fairseeming to Pharaoh, and he was turned away from the way; and the struggle of Pharaoh was not (to end) in aught but destruction. (Qur'an 40: 36-37)

Ijumaa Njema!

Aya ya Leo - Dua (Prayer)

Mola wangu Mlezi! Nighufirie mimi na wazazi wangu, na kila aliye ingia nyumbani mwangu kuwa ni mwenye kuamini, na Waumini wote wanaume, na Waumini wanawake. Na wala usiwazidishie walio dhulumu ila kupotea.

My Lord! Forgive me and my parents and him who enters my house believing, and the believing men and the believing women; and do not increase the unjust in aught but destruction! (Qur'an 71:28)

Jumaa Mubarak!

Mara mia moja kwa siku, atasamehewa dhambi zake zote atakama zilikuwa nyingi kama mapovu ya bahari. 

Narrated Abu Huraira:

'Subhan Allah wa bihamdihi,' 

one hundred times a day, will be forgiven all his sins even if they were as much as the foam of the sea. (Bukhari 6405)

Aya ya Leo - Uumbaji (Creation)

Imehadithiwa na Abu Huraira:

Mtume wa Allah alisema, "Yoyote anayesema: 
" La ilaha illal-lah wahdahu la sharika lahu, lahu-l-mulk wa lahul- hamd wa huwa 'ala kulli shai'in qadir 
(Hakuna Mungu ila Allah pekee, bila Mwenzie. Yeye ndio Mmiliki, na Mwenye sifa zote, na Mwenye Nguvu juu ya kila kitu)," 
mara mia moja, atapata dhawabu sawa na mtu anayeachia watumwa kumi, na dhawabu mia moja itaandikwa kwenye hesabu zake, na dhambi mia zitafutwa kwenye hesabu zake, na itakuwa ngao yake kutoka kwa shetani siku hiyo mpaka usiku wake, na hamna atakayeweza kumzidi zaidi ya yule anayetenda mema zaidi yake.

 Narrated Abu Huraira:

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said," Whoever says: 
"La ilaha illal-lah wahdahu la sharika lahu, lahu-l-mulk wa lahul- hamd wa huwa 'ala kulli shai'in qadir 
(There is no god but Allah, alone, without partner. His is the sovereignty, and His the praise, and He has power over everything)," 
one hundred times will get the same reward as given for manumitting ten slaves; and one hundred good deeds will be written in his accounts, and one hundred sins will be deducted from his accounts, and it (his saying) will be a shield for him from Satan on that day till night, and nobody will be able to do a better deed except the one who does more than he." (Bukhari 6403)

Aya ya Leo - Tafakari (Reflections)

Petra, mji wa zamani Jordan, ambaye nyumba zake zilijengwa ndani ya majabali.

Je! Hawatembei katika ardhi wakaona ulivyo kuwa mwisho wa walio kuwa kabla yao? Nao walikuwa na nguvu zaidi kuliko wao, na wakaitimbua
ardhi na wakaistawisha zaidi kuliko walivyo istawisha wao.
Na Mitume wao wakawajia na dalili zilizo wazi. Basi hakuwa Mwenyezi Mungu ni mwenye kuwadhulumu, lakini walikuwa wakijidhulumu nafsi zao.

Have they not traveled through the earth and observed how was the end of those before them? They were greater than them in power, and
they plowed the earth and built it up more than they have built it up,
and their messengers came to them with clear evidences. And Allah would not ever have wronged them, but they were wronging themselves. (Qur'an 30:9)

Aya ya Leo - Muhammad

Muhammad ni Mtume wa Mwenyezi Mungu. Na walio pamoja naye wana nguvu mbele ya makafiri, na wanahurumiana wao kwa wao. Utawaona wakiinama na kusujudu wakitafuta fadhila na radhi za Mwenyezi Mungu. Alama zao zi katika nyuso zao, kwa athari ya kusujudu. Huu ndio mfano wao katika Taurati. Na mfano wao katika Injili ni kama mmea ulio toa chipukizi lake, kisha ukalitia nguvu, ukawa mnene, ukasimama sawa juu ya ubuwa wake, ukawafurahisha wakulima, ili  kuwakasirisha kwa ajili yao makafiri. Mwenyezi Mungu amewaahidi walio amini na wakatenda  mema katika wao msamaha na ujira mkubwa.

Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah ; and those with him are forceful against the disbelievers,  merciful among themselves. You see them bowing and prostrating [in prayer], seeking bounty from  Allah and [His] pleasure. Their mark is on their faces from the trace of prostration. That is their  description in the Torah. And their description in the Gospel is as a plant which produces its offshoots and strengthens them so they grow firm and stand upon their stalks, delighting the sowers - so that Allah may enrage by them the disbelievers. Allah has promised those who believe and do righteous deeds among them forgiveness and a great reward. 
 (Qur'an 48:29)

Aya za Leo - Ujumbe wa Muhammad(S.A.W)(Muhammad's Message)

Sema: Hakika mimi ni mtu kama nyinyi; imefunguliwa kwangu ya kwamba Mungu wenu ni Mungu Mmoja tu. Basi nyookeni sawa kumwendea Yeye, na mumtake msamaha, na ole wao wanao mshirikisha, Ambao hawatoi Zaka na wanaikataa Akhera.
Hakika wanao amini na wakatenda mema watakuwa na ujira usio na ukomo.  

Say, O [Muhammad], "I am only a man like you to whom it has been revealed that your god is but one God; so take a straight course to Him and seek His forgiveness." And woe to those who associate others with Allah -Those who do not give zakah, and in the Hereafter they are disbelievers.
Indeed, those who believe and do righteous deeds - for them is a reward uninterrupted.

Basi Anas akasema: ' Je nikusomee Ruqya ya Mtume wa Allah juu yako?'

Akasema: 'Ndiyo'.

Akasema:' Ewe Allah! Mola wa Nafsi zote, ondoa maradhi yake na umpe tiba. Kwani wewe ndiye unaye toa tiba, na hakuna anaye toa tiba bali wewe, tiba ambaye haiachi maradhi yoyote.

Abdul-Aziz bin Suhaib said:"Thabit Al-Bunani and I entered upon Anas bin Malik, and
Thabit said: 'O Abu Hamzah! I am suffering from an illness.
So Anas said: 'Shall I not recite the Ruqyah of the Messenger of Allah over you?'
He said: 'Why, yes.'
He said: 'O Allah! Lord of mankind, remove the harm, and cure (him).Indeed You are the One Who cures, there is none who cures except you, a cure that leaves no disease.'"

"‏ اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ النَّاسِ مُذْهِبَ الْبَاسِ اشْفِ أَنْتَ الشَّافِي لاَ شَافِيَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ شِفَاءً لاَ يُغَادِرُ سَقَمًا ‏"

(Tirmidhi 973)

(Qur'an 9:71)

Hadithi ya Leo - Theluthi ya Quran ( A third of the Quran)

Imehadhithiwa na Abu Hurairah:

Kwamba Mtume wa Allah alisema: " Jikusanyeni na nitawasomea theluthi ya Qurani. "

Akasema: " Yoyote aliyeweza akajikusanya, basi Mtume wa Allah akatoka na kusoma Qul Huwa Allahu Ahad, kisha akarudi ndani. Baadhi ya watu wakaanza kuambizana, "Mtume wa Allah alisema: 'Nitasoma theluthi ya Qurani, nilifikiri hizi ni habari za Peponi.'" Mtume wa Allah akatoka nje na kusema: " Ni Kweli nilisema nitawasomea theluthi ya Qurani, na hii ni kama theluthi ya Qurani."
 

Narrated Abu Hurairah:

that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Gather and I shall recite to you one third of the Qur'an." He said: "So whoever was to gather did so, then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came out and recited Qul Huwa Allahu Ahad. Then he went back in. Some of them said to each other: "The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'I shall recite to you one third of the Qur'an I thought that this was news from the Heavens. Allah's Prophet (ﷺ) came out and said: "Indeed I said that I would recite to you one third of the Qur'an, and it is indeed equal to one third of the Qur'an."
 (Tirmidhi: Vol. 5, Book 42, Hadith 2900)

Happy Monday! Msisahau kusoma Qul Huwa Allahu jamani.

Sura ya Leo - Allah

Sema: Yeye Mwenyezi Mungu ni wa pekee.
Mwenyezi Mungu Mkusudiwa.
Hakuzaa wala hakuzaliwa.
Wala hana anaye fanana naye hata mmoja.
(Qur'an 112:1-4)
Jumaa Mubarak Wadau.

Aya ya Leo - Onyo (Warning)

Basi ole wao wanao andika kitabu kwa mikono yao, kisha wakasema: Hiki kimetoka kwa Mwenyezi Mungu, ili wachumie nacho pato dogo. Basi ole wao kwa yale iliyo andika mikono yao, na ole wao kwa yale wanayo yachuma. 

 

So woe to those who write the "scripture" with their own hands, then say, "This is from Allah," in order to exchange it for a small price. Woe to them for what their hands have written and woe to them for what they earn.
(Qur'an 2:79)

Jumaa Mubarak Wadau.

Aya ya Leo - Niiteni (Call upon Me)

Have you made your call yet?

 

Na  Mola wenu Mlezi anasema: "Niombeni nitakujibuni. Kwa hakika wale wajivunao kufanya ibada yangu bila shaka wataingia Jahanamu wadhalilike."

And your Lord says: "Call on Me; I will answer your (Prayer): but those who are too arrogant to serve Me will surely find themselves in Hell - in humiliation!" (Qur'an 40:60)

Jumaa Kareem! 

Aya za Leo - Watu Wema (The Righteous)

  Hakika tumemuumba Mwanaadamu katika taabu.

Ati anadhani hapana yeyote ataye muweza?

Anasema: Nimeteketeza chungu ya mali.

Ati anadhani ya kuwa hapana yeyote anaye mwona?

Kwani hatukumpa macho mawili?

Na ulimi, na midomo miwili?

Na tukambainishia zote njia mbili (iliyo Njema na Mbaya)?

Lakini hakujituma kwenye njia ya vikwazo vya milimani.

Na nini kitakachokujulisha ni nini njia ya vikwazo vya milimani?  

Kumkomboa mtumwa;

Au kumlisha siku ya njaa

Yatima aliye jamaa (Na asiyekua jamaa),

Au masikini aliye vumbini.

Tena awe miongoni mwa walio amini na wakausiana kusubiri na wakausiana kuhurumiana.

Hao ndio watu wa kheri wa kuliani.

We have certainly created man into hardship.
Does he think that never will anyone overcome him?
He says, "I have spent wealth in abundance."
Does he think that no one has seen him?
Have We not made for him two eyes?
And a tongue and two lips?
And have shown him the two ways?
But he has not broken through the difficult pass.
And what can make you know what is [breaking through] the difficult pass?
It is the freeing of a slave
Or feeding on a day of severe hunger
An orphan of near relationship
Or a needy person in misery
And then being among those who believed and advised one another to patience and advised one another to compassion.
Those are the companions of the right. (Qur'an 90:4-18)

Ijumaa Njema!

Surah ya Leo - Al Waaqi'ah - Isiyozuilika (The Inevitable)

Qu'ran Chapter 56.
Msomi Sheikh Yusuf Simbano.

Ijumaa Njema Wadau!

Aya ya Leo - Maisha ya Dunia(Worldy Life)

Hakika mfano wa maisha ya dunia ni kama maji tuliyo yateremsha kutoka mbinguni, kisha yakachanganyika na mimea ya ardhi wanayo ila watu na wanyama. Mpaka ardhi ilipo kamilika uzuri wake, na ikapambika, na wenyewe wakadhani wamesha iweza, iliifikia amri yetu usiku au mchana, tukaifanya kama iliyo fyekwa - kama kwamba haikuwapo jana. Namna hivi tunazipambanua Ishara zetu kwa watu wanao fikiri. 

The example of [this] worldly life is but like rain which We have sent down from the sky that the plants of the earth absorb - [those] from which men and livestock eat - until, when the earth has taken on its adornment and is beautified and its people suppose that they have capability over it, there comes to it Our command by night or by day, and We make it as a harvest, as if it had not flourished yesterday. Thus do We explain in detail the signs for a people who give thought.

 (Qur'an 10:24)

Ijumaa Njema!

Aya ya Leo - Alama (Signs)

  Hakika katika kuumbwa kwa mbingu na ardhi, na kukhitalifiana usiku na mchana, na marikebu ambazo hupita baharini kwa viwafaavyo watu, na maji anayo yateremsha Mwenyezi Mungu kutoka mbinguni, na kwa hayo akaihuisha ardhi baada ya kufa kwake, na akaeneza humo kila aina ya wanyama; na katika mabadiliko ya pepo, na mawingu yanayo amrishwa kupita baina ya mbingu na ardhi, bila shaka zimo Ishara kwa watu wanao zingatia.

Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and earth, and the alternation of the night and the day, and the [great] ships which sail through the sea with that which benefits people, and what Allah has sent down from the heavens of rain, giving life thereby to the earth after its lifelessness and dispersing therein every [kind of] moving creature, and [His] directing of the winds and the clouds controlled between the heaven and the earth are signs for a people who use reason.
(Qur'an 2:164) 

Jumaa Mubarak!
