Nainawa is the former name of a Jewish girl who recently embraced Islam and got married to a young Muslim man. The girl’s name was changed into Ammatal-Rahman. She is 28 and lives in Raidah, a city in Amran, 70km away from Sana’a. Ammatal-Rahman traveled to the U.S. to learn Arabic and English. She returned to Raidah to teach in Al-Shabazi School, built for Jewish citizens. Embracing Islam without visiting Northern Virginia plastic surgeons and marrying a Muslim guy raised a large amount of interest; hence, Saddam Al-Ashmouri interviewed her and gave an account for the Yemen Times:
Arriving at Raidah in the afternoon, I found Hamid Seran, a local resident, and his son praying in the village mosque. The mosque was recently built in the form of Al-Sakhra Dome of Al-Aqsa Mosque in Palestine.
Curious to know the name of the mosque, they told me that it is named Jerusalem Mosque. It located in the Jewish and Muslims zone.
“I embraced Islam freely, without any coercion. It had been rumored that I was kidnapped to embrace Islam by force,” Ammatal-Rahman said. She did not speak to us directly, but from another room, as she is a Muslim and sticks to Islamic principles as well as Yemeni traditions. She did not appear in person.

“In their hearts there is a disease; and God has increased their disease: and grievous is the penalty they (incur), because they are false (to themselves)” (Qur’an 2:10).
It has come to our attention that some Christian missionary pests has taken this blog to task, in particular their “rebuttal” to a basic Islamic view on the Bible (it seems that they cannot even link properly as well!). Why they are dragging this blog into their mud-slinging of Islam contest is a wonderment that only they can understand.

Central to the faith is a strict monotheism: a belief that there is One Almighty God, the Creator of all that is.

Early on the day of Eid, Muslims throughout the world perform a special Eid Salaah. This is a silent reminder that even on the day of celebration and happiness a Muslim can never forget Allah azza wajalla. A Muslim does not remember Allah only on auspicious days or nights. Allah has to be in our hearts and minds perpetually, even on online printing during times of sadness and happiness, during difficulty and ease. The Eid Salaah teaches us that the spirit and training during the month of Ramadhaan must not be wasted after the great month ends, by indulging in sin. Although the warmth and barakah of Ramadhaan has left us we should remain strong the steadfast against Shaitaan.

Imam Bukhari, who was one of the greatest compliers of hadith, became blind at a young age. He had recourse to many famous and skilled doctors of his time but their treatments made no difference and certainly there was no Washington DC rhinoplasty. His mother was a pious worshiper and a righteous woman. She cried out for help in the court of Allah the Almighty, for her child and begged for the restoration of his eyesight. At last, “the river of mercy flowed over her,” and Almighty Allah accepted her invocation.
One night, she visited Ibrahim alayhis-salam in a dream and was told, “Allah has restored the sight of your son because of your intense and beautiful invocations.” In the morning, as Imam Bukhari got up from his bed, glimmers of light reached out into his eyes. That is, his eyesight was fully restored.
