The story of Adam is one of my favorite stories in the quran. Why? Because, Allah gives us a little history of what happened in heaven before man was created, and up until he was sent down to earth as a vicegerent. A vicegerent is a person exercising delegated power on behalf of a sovereign or ruler. We were created specifically for earth and we were not sent to earth until we were ready to make our own decisions. Adam approached the forbidden tree based on his own decision, no one forced him. Adam even gets words of inspiration from Allah and is forgiven before he is sent to earth, as was planned before his creation. Allah knows best, but below are his words from the Quran found in Suratul Al Baqarah. Take the time to Read and process these very heavy words.
2:30 Behold, thy Lord said to the angels: "I will create a vicegerent on earth." They said: "Wilt Thou place therein one who will make mischief therein and shed blood?- whilst we do celebrate Thy praises and glorify Thy holy (name)?" He said: "I know what ye know not."
2:31 And He taught Adam the nature of all things; then He placed them before the angels, and said: "Tell me the nature of these if ye are right."
2:32 They said: "Glory to Thee, of knowledge We have none, save what Thou Hast taught us: In truth it is Thou Who art perfect in knowledge and wisdom."
2:33 He said: "O Adam! Tell them their natures." When he had told them, Allah said: "Did I not tell you that I know the secrets of heaven and earth, and I know what ye reveal and what ye conceal?"
2:34 And behold, We said to the angels: "Bow down to Adam" and they bowed down. Not so Iblis: he refused and was haughty: He was of those who reject Faith.
Iblis is further described of his nature in Surah Alkhalf chapter 18.
18:50 Behold!
We said to the angels, "Bow down to Adam": They bowed down except
Iblis. He was one of the Jinns, and he broke the Command of his Lord.
Will ye then take him and his progeny as protectors rather than Me? And
they are enemies to you! Evil would be the exchange for the wrong-doers!
2:35 We said: "O Adam! dwell thou and thy wife in the Garden; and eat of the bountiful things therein as (where and when) ye will; but approach not this tree, or ye run into harm and transgression."
2:36 Then did Satan make them slip from the (garden), and get them out of the state (of felicity) in which they had been. We said: "Get ye down, all (ye people), with enmity between yourselves. On earth will be your dwelling-place and your means of livelihood - for a time."
2:37 Then learnt Adam from his Lord words of inspiration, and his Lord Turned towards him; for He is Oft-Returning, Most Merciful.
2:38 We said: "Get ye down all from here; and if, as is sure, there comes to you Guidance from me, whosoever follows My guidance, on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.
2:39 "But those who reject Faith and belie Our Signs, they shall be companions of the Fire; they shall abide therein."

Sharo Milionea AKA Hussein Ramadhani Atuacha
Nimesikitika nilivyo pata habari ya Msanii wa bongo Hussein Ramadhani almaaruf kwa Sharo Milionea afariki Dunia. Kifo chake kili sababishwa na ajali ya gari lake kupinduka alipokuwa anaelekea Muheza,Tanga kutokea Dar Es Salaam.
I have a copy of the movie that made him famous with the name Sharo Milionea(Millionaire). Its sad that he passed away while his career was picking up with a little boost from an airtel commercial gig . It came as a shock, and a reminder for many of us that death is imminent, so we should all prepare for it.

WAISLAM WA DHEHEBU LA SHIA JIJINI DAR WAADHIMISHA SIKU YA ASHURA KUKUMBUKA KIFO CHA MJUKUU WA MTUME MOHAMMED (S.A.W).
The Shia Muslim community in Dar-Es-Salaam mourn the death of prophet Mohammed's (S.A.W) grandson Imam Hussein ibn Ali, who was killed in the Battle of Karbala on the day of Ashura.
Pichani Juu na Chini Waumini wa dhehebu la Shia wakiwasili na kukusanyika katika eneo la makaburi ya Washia Kisutu jijini Dar es Salaam wakijiandaa kuanza maandamano ya kuadhimisha siku ya Ashura kukumbuka kifo cha Mjukuu wa Mtume Mohammed (S.A.W) Imam Hussein yaliyofanyika jana.
Mwenyekiti wa Msikiti wa Jamaat Shia Ithna Asheri Bw. Azim Dewji akifafanua kwa waandishi wa habari amesema katika kuadhimisha siku hii Waislam wa dhehebu la Shia watafanya matembezi kutoka makaburi ya Shia Kisutu hadi katika msikiti mkuu wa Shia Ithna Asheri na wakati wa matembezi hayo ndani yake kutakuwa kunafanyika kumbukumbu kwa njia ya kuimba nyimbo za maombolezo tukikumbuka shujaa wetu namna alivyouwawa na vile vile sisi kujipa uhai kiroho katika kuonyesha namna kiongozi anaweza kujitolea kwa watu wake na kwamba ni funzo kwa kila mwanadamu ajitolee kwa ajili ya wenzake.
Imamu wa Msikiti wa Imam Ali wa Magomeni Mapipa Msabaha Shaaban Ali Mapinga akizungumza na waandishi wa habari amesema siku hii ni siku ya kukumbuka na kuadhimisha miaka 1473 ambapo katika nchi ya Iraq kwenye mji wa Karbala aliuwawa mjukuu wa Mtume Mohammed (S.A.W) aliyekuwa akijulikana kwa jina la Imam Hussein Bin Ali Bin Abutwalib.
Amesema katika nyakati hizo alitokea mtawala dhalim aliyekuwa akitetea dhulma na kukiuka haki za binadamu kitendo ambacho mjukuu wa Mtume Imam Hussein hakukubaliana nacho na kuunda jeshi lake dogo kutetea haki na kupinga Batili.
Kwakuwa Imam Hussein alikuwa na dhamana ya kutetea haki alikataa kuwa chini ya mtawala huo ndipo alipotumiwa jeshi la watu kama 30,000 naye akiwa na jeshi la watu 72 walipambana katika mji huo na mjukuu wa Mtume aliuwawa kifo cha kikatili cha kutenganishwa kichwa na kiwiliwili.
Kwa Upande wake Sheikh Mkuu wa Mkoa wa Dar es Salaam Alhad Mussa Salum amesema siku hii ni muhimu sana kwa Waislam kote duniani kwa sababu tunamkumbuka Imam Hussein ambaye kifo chake kilikuwa ni kifo cha kinyama, kifo cha wapenda dhulma katika uso wa ardhi.
Amesema kifo cha Imam Hussein kinamgusa kila Muislam kwa sababu ilikuwa ni siku ambayo haki ilizimwa na dhuluma, maadui wa haki walijaribu kuitaka batil isimame , kwa hiyo siku ya leo ni sku ya kutetea haki na uadilifu.
Aidha Sheikh Salum amesema kwa Waislam wote Tanzania na hata wasio Waislam wanatakiwa wajifunze kutoka kwa Imam Hussein kwamba yeye alikuwa ni mtetezi wa haki, alikuwa anatetea Uadilifu kwa hiyo tujifunze kwamba kutetea haki na kutetea uadilifu ndio jambo linalotakiwa katika maisha ya leo, kutetea wanyonge, kupiga vita Dhuluma na ukandamizaji wa namna yoyote ile ndio lililokuwa jambo alilolipenda Imam Hussein.
Waumini hao wakiwa wamejipanga tayari kuanza maadamano kutoka makaburi ya Kisutu hadi katika msikiti mkuu wa Shia.
Pichani juu na chini msafara wa waumini wa Shia umeanza.
Hisia na Majonzi vilionekana.

The Day of Ashura - November 25th 2012
Ashura is a day that falls on the 10th day of the month of Muharram. Muharram as we covered in a previous post is the first Month of the Islamic Calendar. This is the day that Nabii Musa(Moses) freed the jews from Pharaoh, the muslims celebrate this day by fasting.
Ibn Abbas said: Prophet Mohammed (S.A.W) came to Madinah and saw the Jews fasting on the day of Ashura.
He said, "What is this?"
They said, "This is a righteous day, it is the day when Allah saved the Children of Israel from their enemies, so Musa fasted on this day. "
He said, "We have more right to Musa than you".
So the prophet fasted on that day and commanded the Muslims to fast as well on that day.[Bukhari, 1865].
However, this was before fasting for Ramadhan was introduced. When the command came down from Allah to fast during Ramadhan, the fasting on Ashura was made optional. Fasting is optional on this day, so happy fasting everybody, I leave you with this hadith below.
Ibn Abbas said: "I never saw the Messenger of Allah (SAW) so keen to fast any day and give it priority over any other than this day, the day of Ashura, and this month, meaning Ramadhan." [Bukhari, 1867]
