But yes, they are mentioned many times and jazakallah khair for listing the references.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15177578450022894894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20631069.post-17058207187283500232007-06-07T20:45:00.000-04:002007-06-07T20:45:00.000-04:00mashaa allah, This is an excellent article.Birds a...mashaa allah, <BR/>This is an excellent article.<BR/><BR/>Birds are mentioned many times in quran:<BR/><BR/>Surat al-nour, ayat 41<BR/><BR/>surat al-nahl , ayat 79<BR/><BR/>surat al-mulk , ayat 19<BR/><BR/>surat al-anaam, ayat 38<BR/><BR/>surat al-naml ayat 16-17 & 20-32<BR/><BR/>surat al baqara, ayat 260<BR/><BR/><BR/>and each ayah has wonderfull tafsir!Aviatorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09809785161600609869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20631069.post-54315370186346631952007-06-07T11:25:00.000-04:002007-06-07T11:25:00.000-04:00Maybe.

Whenever people think of something to compliment me on, it throws into stark reality the dearth of that attribute I actually have, so immediately I think (even if I don't say) "Oh, Allah, make me one who has ____."<BR/><BR/>For example, someone says, "thanks for being patient." I think, "Oh Allah, make me one who has patience;" or "Oh Allah, give me patience." Because I only see how patient I am not, how impatient I am sometimes to get what I want. I can't sit around and say "Oh, look at how patient I am... lah-dee-dah." That's rather conceited anyway I guess. <BR/><BR/>So whenever you tell me I'm kind, I only think that I <I>want</I> to be kind, and kind<I>er</I>. That's not exactly refuting the compliment... I hope. In a way, though, I fear my own inadequacies. So thank you, but thank Allah and really, all thanks are for Allah.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15177578450022894894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20631069.post-83331967248515852232007-06-06T22:41:00.000-04:002007-06-06T22:41:00.000-04:00As-salaamu alaikum,"Kindness fell by the wayside I...As-salaamu alaikum,<BR/><BR/>"Kindness fell by the wayside I think, but I pray it is something I can acquire, tenderness in my heart for others."<BR/><BR/>May Allaah increase you in tenderness, but perhaps the self-assessment is ... well, let's just say that probably your friends disagree with you on that one. Perhaps your closer friends strongly disagree.<BR/><BR/>Nonetheless, may Allaah increase all of us in kindness and tenderness... perhaps it is only those who are kind who would originally even think about making such a dua.Ibn Abd-el-Shafyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11508430991019316152noreply@blogger.com
