21.26 (Mushrik log) kehtay hain kay rehman aulad wala hai (ghalat hai) uss ki zaat pak hai bulkay woh sab uss kay ba-izzat banday hain. 21.27 Kiss baat mein Allah per paish dasti nahi kertay bulkay uss kay farmaan per kaar band hain. 21.28 Woh inn kay aagay peechay kay tamam umoor say waqif hai woh kissi ki bhi sifarish nahi kertay ba-juz unn kay jin say Allah khush ho woh to khud haibat-e-elahee say larzan-o-tarsan hain. 21.29 Inn mein say agar koi bhi keh day kay Allah kay siwa mein laeeq-e-ibadat hun to hum ussay dozakh ki saza den hum zalimon ko issi tarah saza detay hain. 21.30 Kiya kafir logon ney yeh nahi dekha kay aasman-o-zamin ba-hum milay julay thay phir hum ney unhen juda kiya aur her zinda cheez ko hum ney pani say peda kiya kiya yeh log phir bhi emaan nahi latay. 21.31 Aur hum ney zamin mein pahar bana diye takay woh makhlooq ko hila na sakay aur hum ney iss mein kushada raahen bana den takay woh raasta hasil keren. 21.32 Aasman ko mehfooz chat bhi hum ney hi banaya hai. Lekin log iss ki qudrat kay namoono per dehan hi nahi dhartay. 21.33 Wohi Allah hai jiss ney raat aur din aur sooraj aur chand ko peda kiya hai. Inn mein say her aik apney apney madaar mein tertay phirtay hain. 21.34 Aap say pehlay kissi insan ko bhi hum ney hameshgi nahi di kiya agar aap marr gaye to woh hamesha kay liye reh jayen gay. 21.35 Her jaandaar mot ka maza chakhney wala hai. Hum ba-tareeq imtehan tum say her aik ko buraee bhalaee mein mubtila kertay hain aur tum sab humari hi taraf lotaye jaogay. 21.36 Yeh munkireen tujhay jab bhi dekhtay hain to tumhara mazaq hi uratay hain kay kiya yehi woh hai jo tumharay maboodon ka zikar buraee say kerta hai aur woh khud hi rehman ki yaad kay bilkul hi munkir hain. 21.37 Insan jald baaz makhlooq hai.

Aur agar aik raaee kay daney kay barabar bhi amal hoga hum ussay laa hazir keren gay aur hum kafi hain hisab kerney walay. 21.48 Yeh bilkul sach hai kay hum ney musa-o-haroon ko faislay kerney wali noorani aur perhezgaron kay liye waaz-o-naseehat wali kitab ata farmaee hai. 21.49 Woh log jo apney rab say bin dekhay khof khatay hain aur qayamat (kay tasawwur) say kaanptay rehtay hain. 21.50 Aur yeh naseehat-o-barkat wala quran bhi humin ney nazil farmaya hai kiya phir bhi tum iss kay munkir ho. |

SURAH ANBIYA (1-25 Aayat)
(Sura-Anbiya Makka mai Nazil hui, is mai aikso-bara (112) Aayatain hain) |

Best times to make Du’a
There are certain times dua (supplication) is more likely to be accepted by Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) as mentioned by Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam). These times are as follows:
1. The Last Third Of The Night
Abu Hurairah (radiAllahu anhu) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said: ‘In the last third of every night our Rabb (Cherisher and Sustainer) (Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala)) descends to the lowermost heaven and says; “Who is calling Me, so that I may answer him? Who is asking Me so that may I grant him? Who is seeking forgiveness from Me so that I may forgive him?.”‘ [Sahih al-Bukhari, Hadith Qudsi]
Amr ibn Absah narrated that the Prophet said: ‘The closest any worshipper can be to His Lord is during the last part of the night, so if you can be amongst those who remember Allah at that time, then do so.’ [at-Tirmidhi, an-Nasa'i, al-Hakim - Sahih]
2. Late at night
When people are sleeping and busy with worldly pleasures Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) gives the believers an opportunity, or an answer hour if they can fight sleep and invoke Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) for whatever they need.
The Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said: ‘There is at night an hour, no Muslim happens to be asking Allah any matter of this world or the Hereafter, except that he will be given it, and this (occurs) every night.’ [Muslim #757]
3. Between Adhan and Iqamah
Anas (radiAllahu anhu) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said: ‘A supplication made between the Adhan and Iqama is not rejected.’ [Ahmad, abu Dawud #521, at-Tirmidhi #212, Sahih al-Jami #3408, an-Nasai and Ibn Hibban graded it sahih (sound)]
4. An Hour on Friday
Narrated Abu Hurairah (radiAllahu anhu): Allah’s Messenger (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) talked about Friday and said: ‘There is an hour on Friday and if a Muslim gets it while offering Salat (prayer) and asks something from Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala), then Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) will definitely meet his demand.’ And he (the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) pointed out the shortness of that particular time with his hands. [Sahih al-Bukhari]
Some have said that this hour is from the time the Imam (prayer’s leader) enters the mosque on Friday’s prayer until the prayer is over (ie between the two khutbahs), whereas others have said that it is the last hour of the day (ie after the Asr prayer until the Maghrib prayer).
(Note: when we say an hour here we do not mean the hour everyone knows (60 minutes) but an unspecified period of time because the time counters which we use today came after the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) had died.
5. While Drinking Zamzam Water
Jaber (radiAllahu anhu) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said: ‘Zamzam water is for what it is drunk for.’ [Ahmad 3: 357 and Ibn Majah #3062]
This means that when you drink Zamzam water you may ask Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) for anything you like to gain or benefit from this water such as healing from illness…. etc.
6. While Prostrating
Abu Hurairah (radiAllahu anhu) narrated that Allah’s Messenger (salAllahu alayhi wasalam), said: ‘The nearest a slave can be to his Lord is when he is prostrating, so invoke (supplicate) Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) much in it. [Muslim, abu Dawud, an-Nasa'i and others, Sahih al-Jami #1175]
When a Muslim is in his Salat (prayer) he is facing Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) and when he prostrates he is the nearest he can be to Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) so it is best to invoke Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) at this time. It is said that while in prostration, one should not ask for worldy needs (ie a nice car, a new job, etc), but for the Hereafter.
7. When Waking Up at Night
Narrated Ubada Bin As-Samit that Allah’s Messenger (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said: ‘Whomever wakes up at night and says La ilaha illallahu wahdahu la shrika lahu lahulmulku, wa lahul hamdu, wa huwa ala kulli shai’in qadir. Alhamdu lillahi, wa subhanallahi wa la ilaha illallahu, wallah akbir, wa la hawla wala quwata illa billah (none has the right to be worshipped but Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) He is the only one who has no partners. His is the kingdom and all the praises are for Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) All the glories are for Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) And none has the right to be worshipped but Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) and Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) is the most Great and there is neither might nor power except with Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) and then says, Allahumma ighfir li (O Allah! Forgive me) or invokes Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala), he will be responded to and if he makes ablution and performs Salat (prayer), his Salat (prayer) will be accepted. [Sahih al-Bukhari]
8. At The End Of The Obligatory Salat:
Narrated Abu Omamah (radiAllahu anhu): that Allah’s Messenger (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) was asked, O Messenger of Allah, which supplication is heard (by Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala), he said the end of the night and at the end of the obligatory Salat (prayer) [at-Tirmidhi]
This time is after saying ‘At-tahyat’ , and before making Tasleem (finishing prayer)
9. The Night Of ‘Qadr’ (Decree)
This night is the greatest night of the year. This is the night which the almighty Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) said about it, “The night of Al-Qadar (Decree) is better than a thousand months.” [Surah al-Qadr, 97: 3]
The Night of Decree is one of the odd nights of the last ten nights of the blessed month of Ramadan. The angels descend down to the earth, and the earth is overwhelmed with peace and serenity until the break of dawn and when he doors of Paradise are opened, the worshipper is encouraged to turn to Allah to ask for his needs for this world and the Hereafter.
10. During The Rain
Narrated Sahel Ibn Sa’ad (radiAllahu anhu): that the Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said: ‘Two will not be rejected, Supplication when the Adhan (call of prayer) is being called, and at the time of the rain’. [Al-Hakim 2: 114, and Abu Dawud #2540, ibn Majah]
‘Seek the response to your du’as when the armies meet, and the prayer is called, and when rain falls’ [reported by Imam al-Shafi' in al-Umm, al-Sahihah #1469]
The time of the rain is a time of mercy from Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) so, one should take advantage of this time when Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) is having mercy on His slaves.
11. At the Adhan
‘Seek the response to your du’as when the armies meet, and the prayer is called, and when rain falls’ [reported by Imam al-Shafi' in al-Umm, al-Sahihah #1469]
In another hadith; ‘When the prayer is called, the doors of the skies are opened, and the du’a is answered’ [al-Tayalisi in his Musnad #2106, al-Sahihah #1413]
12. The one Who Is Suffering Injustice and Opression
The Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said to Mua’ad Ibn Jabal (radiAllahu anhu), ‘Beware of the supplication of the unjustly treated, because there is no shelter or veil between it (the supplication of the one who is suffering injustice) and Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala)’ [Sahih Al-Bukhari and Muslim]
The prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) declared, ‘Three men whose dua is never rejected (by Allah) are: the fasting person until he breaks his fast (in another narration, when he breaks fast), the just ruler and the one who is oppressed.’
[Ahmad, at-Tirmidhi - Hasan]
In another hadith; The Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) declared: ‘Three du’as are surely answered: The du’a of the oppressed, the du’a of the traveler, and the du’a of the father/mother (upon their child)’
The one who is suffering injustice is heard by Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) when he invokes Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) to retain his rights from the unjust one or oppressor. Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) has sworn to help the one who is suffering from injustice sooner or later as the Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said.
13. The Traveler
The Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said; Three supplications will not be rejected (by Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala)), the supplication of the parent for his child, the supplication of the one who is fasting, and the supplication of the traveler. [al-Bayhaqi, at-Tirmidhi - Sahih]
During travel supplication is heard by Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) if the trip is for a good reason, but if the trip is for a bad intention or to perform illegal things (making sins) this will not apply to it.
14. The Parent’s Supplication for their Child
The Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said; Three supplications will not be rejected (by Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala)), the supplication of the parent for his child, the supplication of the one who is fasting, and the supplication of the traveler. [al-Bayhaqi, at-Tirmidhi - Sahih]
15. Dua after praising Allah and giving salat on the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) in the tashahhud at the end of salat.
Narrated Faddalah ibn Ubayd (radiAllahu anhu): that the Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said: ‘When anyone of you makes du’a, let him start by glorifying his Lord and praising Him, then let him send blessings upon the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam), then let him pray for whatever he wants’ [abu Dawud #1481, at-Tirmidhi #3477]
In another hadith; Baqiy ibn Mukhallid (radiAllahu anhu) narrated that that the Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said: ‘Every du’a is not responded to until one sends blessings upon the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam)’ [al-Bayhaqi]
In another hadith; Umar (radiAllahu anhu) narrated that the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said: ‘Du’a is detained between the heavens and the earth and no part of it is taken up until you send blessings upon your Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam)’
[at-Tirmidhi #486]
After a person has finished his tashahhud and before saying the ’salam’, supplication at this time is one likely to be responded to. Ibn Mas’ud narrates: I was once praying, and the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam), Abu Bakr and Umar (were all present). When I sat down (in the final tashahhud), I praised Allah, then sent salams on the Prophet, then started praying for myself. At this, the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said:‘Ask, and you shall be given it! Ask, and you shall be given it!’ [at-Tirmidhi #593 - hasan, Mishkat al-Misbah #931]
16. The dua of a Muslim for his absent brother or sister Muslim stemming from the heart.
The prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said:
‘There is no believing servant who supplicates for his brother in his absence where the angels do not say, ‘the same be for you” [Muslim]
17. Dua on the Day of Arafat
The Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said: ‘The best supplication is the supplication on the day of Arafat’.[at-Tirmidhi and Malik]
The day of Arafat is the essence and pinnacle of Hajj. on this great and momentous day, millions of worshippers gather together on one plain, from every corner of the world, with only one purpose in mind – to respone to the call of their Creator. During this auspicious day, Allah does not refuse the requests of His worshippers.
18. Dua during the month of Ramadan
Ramadan is month full of many blessings, thus the du’a of Ramadan is a blessed one. This can be inferred from the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) saying: ‘When Ramadan comes, the Doors of Mercy (another narration says Paradise) are opened, and the doors of Hell are closed, and the Sahitans are locked up’ Thus, it is clear that du’a during Ramadan has a greater chance of being accepted, as the Gates of Paradise and Mercy are opened.
[Sahih al-Bukhari #1899, Muslim #1079 and others]
19. Dua when the Armies meet
When the Muslim is facing the enemy in battle, at this critical period, the du’a of a worshipper is accepted.
Sahl ibn Sa’d (radiAllahu anhu) narrtaed the the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said:
‘Two duas are never rejected, or rarely rejected: the du’a during the call for prayer, and the du’a during the clamity when the two armies attack each other’ [abu Dawud #2540, ibn Majah, al-Hakim]
In another narration: ‘Seek the response to your du’as when the armies meet, and the prayer is called, and when rain falls’[reported by Imam al-Shafi' in al-Umm, al-Sahihah #1469]
20. When Muslims gather for the purpose of invoking and remembering Allah (Dhikrullah) .
The Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said:
If a group of people sit together remembering Allah, the angels will circle them, mercy will shroud them, peace will descend onto them and Allah will remember them among those with Him. [Muslim]
21. First Ten days of Dhul-Hijjah
The Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said:
‘There are no days during which good deeds are more beloved to Allah than during these ten days’ [Sahih al-Bukhai #969 and others]
22. Dua when the heart reaches out to Allah and is ready to be totally sincere
23. At Midnight
Abu Umamah (radiAllahu anhu) said, the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) was questioned; ‘Which du’a is heard (by Allah)?’ He answered, ‘At midnight and at the end of every obligatory prayer.’[at-Tirmidhi - Hasan]
25. Dua of people after the death of a person
In a long hadith, Umm Salamah (radiAllahu anha) narrated that the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said, when Abu Salamah had just passed away, and had closed his eyes,
‘Do not ask for yourselves anything but good, for the angels will say ‘Ameen’ to all that you ask for. O Allah, forgive Abu Salamah, and raise his ranks among those who are guided.’ [Muslim, abu Dawud, Ahmad]
26. Dua of the one fasting until he breaks his fast.
The Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said; Three supplications will not be rejected (by Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala)), the supplication of the parent for his child, the supplication of the one who is fasting, and the supplication of the traveler. [al-Bayhaqi, at-Tirmidhi - Sahih]
27. Dua of the one fasting at the time of breaking fast
The prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) declared,
‘Three men whose dua is never rejected (by Allah) are: when a fasting person breaks fast (in another narration, the fasting person until he breaks his fast), the just ruler and the one who is oppressed.’ [Ahmad, at-Tirmidhi - Hasan]
29. Dua of a just Ruler
The prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) declared,
‘Three men whose dua is never rejected (by Allah) are: the fasting person until he breaks his fast (in another narration, when he breaks fast), the just ruler and the one who is oppressed.’ [Ahmad, at-Tirmidhi - Hasan]
30. Dua of a son or daughter obedient to his or her parents
It is well known in the story narrated in hadith os three men who were trapped by a huge stone in a cave. one of them who was kind to kis parents asked Allah to remove the stone, and his du’a was answered. [Sahih al-Bukhari 3:36 #472]
31. Dua immediately after wudu
Umar ibn Al-Khattab reported that the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said:
‘There is not one of you that makes wudu, and does it perfectly, then says: I testify that there is no diety worthy of worship except Allah. he is Alone, having no partners. And I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and messenger’, except that the eight gates of Paradise are opened for him, and he can enter into it through whichever one he pleases’ [Muslim #234, abu Dawud #162, Ahmad, an-Nasa'i]

32. Dua after stoning the Jamarat at Hajj
The stoning of the small Shaitan (jamrat sugra), or the middle Shaitan (jamrat wusta) pillars during Hajj.
It is narrated that the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) would stone the small Jamarah (one of the three pillars that is stoned in the last days of Hajj), then face the qiblah, raise his hands, and make du’a for a long time. He would then stone the middle Jamarah and do the same. When he stoned the large Jamarah, he would depart without making any du’a. [Sahih al-Bukhari #1753 and others]
33. At the Crowing of a Rooster
Abu Hurairah (radiAllahu anhu) narrated that the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said:
‘When you hear a rooster crowing, then ask Allah for His bounties, for it has seen an angel, and when you hear a donkey braying, then seek refuge in Allah from Shaitan, for it has seen a Shaitan’ [Sahih al-Bukhari, Muslim, Ahmad, Sahih al-Jami #611]
34. Du’a made inside the Ka’bah
The Ka’bah is a sanctuary that has no comparison in the entire world. The du’a of one who prays inside the hijr is considered as being made inside the ka’bah, as it is part of the house (Baitullah). [This is the semicircle to the right of the Ka'bah if you face the door, opposite to the Yemeni corner and the Black stone wall.]
Usamah ibn Zayd narrated, ‘When the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) entered the House (Ka’bah), he made du’a in all of its corners [Muslim 2: 968 and others]
35. Du’a on the mount of Safa or Marwah during Umrah or Hajj

When the servant says: Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the universe, Allah the Most High says: My servant has praised Me. And when he (the servant) says: The Most Compassionate, the Merciful, Allah the Most High says: My servant has lauded Me. When he (the servant) says: Master of the Day of Judgment, He remarks: My servant has glorified Me, and sometimes He will say: My servant entrusted (his affairs) to Me. When he (the worshipper) says: Thee do we worship and of Thee do we ask help, He (Allah) says: This is between Me and My servant, and My servant will receive what he asks for. Then, when he (the worshipper) says: Guide us to the straight path, the path of those to whom Thou hast been Gracious — not of those who have incurred Thy displeasure, nor of those who have gone astray, He (Allah) says: This is for My servant, and My servant will receive what he asks for. [Muslim 4: 395]
38. Saying ‘Ameen’ during prayer
After finishing the recitation of al-Fatihah, the saying of‘Ameen’ in congregation.
The Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said: ‘When the Imam says ‘Ameen’, then recite it behind him (as well), because whoever’s Ameen coincides with the Ameen of the angels will have all of his sins forgiven.’ [Sahih al-Bukhari #780, Muslim #410 and others]
39. While visiting the sick, and dua made by the sick
Umm Salamah narrated that the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said:

Ali (radiAllahu anhu) reported that the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said:
‘When a Muslim visits his sick Muslim brother in the morning, seventy thousand angels make dua for his forgiveness till the evening. And when he visits him in the evening, seventy thousand angels make dua for his forgiveness till the morning, and he will be granted a garden for it in Jannah.’ [at-Tirmidhi, abu Dawud] |

ASHRAH DHUL-HIJJAH
Dhul-hijjah islami saal ka 12 wa mahina hai,
waise toh saara mahina khair o barkat wala hai,
lekin iske pahle 10 dino Ko khususi sharf haasil hai
jaise ke hadith shareef me haihz
ibn abbas (ra) bayan karte hain ke
nabi e akram sallalaho alaihi wasallam (pbuh)
ne irshad farmaya:-"
ashrah dhul hijjah ke amaal e swaaleh allah taala
ko jis qadr mahboob wa pasand hain,
dusre dino ke aamal is qadr mahboob nahi,
sahaba kiram (ra) ne arz kiya:-"
aiy allah ke rasool nabi e akram sallalaho alaihi wasallam (pbuh) !
Dusre dino ka jihad bhi ?
Aap nabi e akram sallalaho alaihi wasallam (pbuh) ne farmaya:-"

raaste me qur'ban karde toh aisa jihad afzal
aur pasandeedah ho sakta hai "

TAKBEERAAT
Dhul-hijjah ka chand dekhte hi
takbiraat kahni shuru kar deni chahiye,
chalte firte, uthte baithte takbeeraat kahte
rahna chahiye jaise ke hadith me haihz abullah bin umar (ra) aur hz abu hurairah (ra),
dhul hijjah ke pahle
10 dino me jab bazaar ki taraf tashreef le jaate toh
(chalte firte ) takbeerein kahte aur

🌼(dare kutni jild 2 pg 50)🌼
ek aur riwayat me hai ke hz abdullah bin umar (ra) bayan karte hain ke nabi e akram sallalaho alaihi wasallam (pbuh) ne farmaya:-
" dhul hijjah ke pahle 10 din allah taala ke nazdeek bahut hi azmat aur Buzurgi waale hain aur in dino ke nek aamaal allah ke nazdeek zyada mahboob hain ba'nisbat dusre dino ke pas tum in dino me kasrat se tahleel,
takbeer aur tamheed kaho,
yani takbeerein wagerah kasrat se padha karo "
(mutawaffiq alaih )
HAJAAMAT
Jis shakhs ki taraf se qurbani karni ho toh us shakhs ko chahiye ke wah ashrah dhul hijjah ke dauraan apni hajaamat na banwaaye,
dhul hijjah ka chand nazar aane se pahle apni
hajaamat wagerah banwa sakta hai, kyonke qurbani karne wale ke mutaallik hadith me hai,ummul momineen
hz umme salma (ra) bayaan karti hain ke nabi e akram sallalaho alaihi wasallam (pbuh) ne farmaya:-
" jis shakhs ke paas qurbani ka jaanwar ho, aur wah usko qurbani ke din qurbani ke liye zibah karna chaahta hai toh usko chahiye ke jab se dhul hijjah ka chand nazar aajaye toh wah apnebaal aur naakhun wagerah na katwaaye
(yani hajamat na karwaaye)
yahan tak ke wah qur'bani kare "
🌼( muslim jild 2 pg 140, abu dawood jild 2 pg 30, baiheqi jild 9 pg 266, miskaat jild 1 pg 127)🌼
jis shakhs me qurbani karne ki taaqat nahi toh usko bhi chahiye ke wah bhi ashrah dhul hijjah me hajaamat na banwaaye,eid ke baad hajaamat banwaaye toh allah taala usko apni rahmat se qurbani ka sawab inaayat farma dega,
jaise ke hadith me hai,jab ek aadmi ne nabi e akram sallalaho alaihi wasallam (pbuh) se arz kiya ke mere paas qurbani ke liye toh koi jaanwar nahin,
lekin mere paas ek doodh denewala jaanwar hai,
(adam iste'taat ka izhaar kiya ),
kya main uski qurbani kar lun ??
Toh nabi e akram sallalaho alaihi wasallam (pbuh) ne farmaya:-
" nahin ! Balketu eid ki namaz ke baad apne baal aur naakhun aur moochhen katwa aur apnezer e naaf baal moondh le,
bas allah taala ke nazdeek yahi teri poori qurbani hai "🌼( abu dawood jild 2 pg 29, nisaai jild 2 pg 201)🌼
lihaaza qurbani ki poori iste'taaat na Rakhne waalon ki tarah dhul hijjah ka chaand dekh kar hajaamat na karwaayen, eid ki namaz ke baad hajaamat karwaayen,
ARFAH KE DIN KA ROZA
dhul hijjah ki 9wi taareekh ko roza rakhne ki bhi badi fazilat hai,
jaise ke hadithme hai,nabi e akram sallalaho alaihi wasallam (pbuh) ne farmaya:-
" mujhe ummeed hai arfah ke roze ke sawaab ki allah taala ek saal ghujashta aur ek saal aainda ke gunaah maaf kar dega "

EIDAIN KA ROZA
Eidain ( eid ul fitr aur eid ul adha )

me hai
hz abu saeed khudri (ra) riwayat karte hain ke nabi e akram sallalaho alaihi wasallam (pbuh) ne:-
" eid ul fitr aur eid ul adha ke din roza rakhne se mana kiya hai "
🌼( bukhari jild 1 pg 267, muslim jild 1 pg 360. Abu dawood jild 1 pg 328, tohfatulahwazi jild 2 pg 26, daarimi page 353,)🌼
EIDAIN KE DIN KHAANA
Eid ul fitr ki namaz padhne ke liye kuch kha pee kar jaana chaahiye,
aur eid ul adha ke din eid ki namaz padhkar kuch khaana peena chahiye,
jaisa ki hadith me haihz abdullah bin bareeda (ra) apne baap se riwayat karte hain,
wah kahte hain ke nabi e akram sallalaho alaihi wasallam (pbuh) :-
" eid ul fitr ke din (eid ul fitr ki namaz padhne ke liye) nahin nikalte they yahan tak ki kuch khaa pee lete,

" ye sunnat hai ke eidgaah ki taraf paidal jaana chahiye aur
( eid ul fitr ki taraf ) jaane se pahle kuch kha pi lena chahiye "
(tohfatul ahwazi jild 1 pg 373)
sunnat yahi hai ke eidgaah ki taraf paidal chalkar jaaye aur waapas bhi paidal chalkar aayen,
haan ! Agar kamzor aur mareez hai,
ya eidgaah door faasle par hai,
itna chalne ki taaqat nahi toh phir

🌼(baiheqi jild 3 pg 281)🌼
TAKBEERAAT
Eidgaah ki taraf jaate waqt aur
Waapas aate waqt jahar se takbeeraat padhni
chahiye, jaise ke marwi hai,
hz nafe (ra) riwayat karte hain ,
hz ibn umar (ra) se ke:-
" ibn umar (ra) eid ul azha aur eid ul fitr ke
din jab eidgah Ki taraf jaate toh buland
awaaz se takbeerein kahte, yahan tak ke
eidgaah me pahunch jaate phir eidgah me bhi

ULEMA e DEEN KE RAAE KUCH IS TARHA HAI:
Sheikh Ibn Taymiyah raheemaullah farmate hai
فالإمام أحمد رضي الله تعالى عنه ترحم عليهم ( يعني الخلفاء الذين تأثروا بمقالة الجهمية الذين زعموا القول بخلق القرآن ، ونصروه ) واستغفر لهم ، لعلمه بأنه لم يتبين لهم أنهم مكذبون للرسول ، ولا جاحدون لما جاء به ، ولكن تأولوا فأخطأوا ، وقلدوا من قال ذلك لهم
Imam Ahmad r.a. ne unlogo (wo Khalifa jo Jahamis ke raae se mutassir hue aur unki himayat ki jinka dawa ye tha ki Quran makhlook hai) ke liye rahmat aur magfirat ki duae ki, kyuki unhe pata tha ki unlogo ko ye waazeh nahi hua tha ki wo RasoolAllah aur jo wo laye the usse kufr kar rahe the balki unhe galat tasawwur hua tha aur unhone galti ki thi aur unki pairwi ki jinlogo ne unhe ye kaha tha. End quote.
Majmoo’ al-Fataawa (23/349).
Shaykh ul Islam raheemaullah farmate hai
وأما التكفير فالصواب أن من اجتهد من أمة محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم وقصد الحق فأخطأ لم يكفر ، بل يغفر له خطؤه
Takfeer ke silsile me sahih Raae ye hai ki Muhammad ѕαℓℓαℓℓαн нυ αℓℓαyнє ωαѕαℓℓαм ke Ummati maise ek shaks jo kisi masaael me sach janne ki jiddo jahad karta hai, lekin kisi galat natije pe pahochta hai, to aeso ke liye Kafir hone ka tasawwur nahi karna chaiye, balki wo apni galti ke liye muaf kar diya jayenge.
[Majmoo' al-Fataawa (3/229)].
Sheikh Ibn Taymiyah raheemaullah farmate hai
هذا مع أني دائماً ومن جالسني يعلم ذلك مني ، أني من أعظم الناس نهياً عن أن ينسب معين إلى تكفير وتفسيق ومعصية ، إلا إذا علم أنه قد قامت عليه الحجة الرسالية التي من خالفها كان كافراً تارة ، وفاسقاً أخرى ، وعاصياً أخرى ، وإني أقرر أن الله قد غفر لهذه الأمة خطأها ، وذلك يعم الخطأ في المسائل الخبرية القولية والمسائل العملية . وما زال السلف يتنازعون في كثير من هذه المسائل ، ولم يشهد أحد منهم على أحد لا بكفر ولا بفسق ولا بمعصية
Taaham(however), jo mere sath baithta hai use mere bareme ye pata hai, Ham unlogo maise hai jo hamesha zor dekar kisi khas shaks ko Kafir, Faasiq ya gunahgaar kahne se mana karte hai, jab tak ke ye pata na chal jaye ki shariah ki dalail us par wazeh ho chuki hai, aur ye sabit ho jaye ki wo Kafir, Fasiq ya gunahgaar hai. Mai ye Daawe se kahta hu ki Allah ne is ummah ko muaf kar diya hai un khatao ke liye jo dastan (narrative) ya amali(practical) muamle ke ho. Salaf in maise boht se muamlo me musalsal bahes karte rahe lekin un maise kisi ne bhi ek dusre ko Kafir, Fasiq ya gunahgaar hone ki gawahi nahi di.
[Majmoo' al-Fataawa (3/229)].
Shaykh Ibn Baaz r.a. se ek ahkaam ke bareme pucha gaya tha ki kisi khas jamaat me shamil hona aur sirf usi jamaat ke Tarike ki pairwi karna aur kisi dusre jamaat ki nahi. Unhone farmaya:
” Har shaks ke upar ye lazim hai ki wo sach par amal kare, jo Allah aur us ke Rasool ne farmaya hai, naahi kisi ek jamaat ke tarike par chahe wo Ikhwan al-Muslimeen ho ya Ansaar al-Sunnah ya koi aur jamaat. Use haq par amal karna chaiye. Agar wo Ansaar al-Sunnah me shamil hota hai aur unhe madad karta hai un muamlo me jinme wo sach ki pairwi karta hai, ya fir agar wo Ikhwan al-Muslimeen me shamil hota hai aur wo ittifak karta hai un muamlo me jisme wo log sach ki pairwi karte hai bina intihai(extreme) me jaye ya bina Gafil hue, to usme koi harj nahi hai. Lekin agar wo unke aqido me yakeen kare aur kabhi na fire unse, to iski ijazat nahi hai. Use haq par amal karna hai wo chahe use kahi bhi le jaye. Agar haq Ikhwan al-Muslimeen ke sath hai to use us par amal karna chaiye ya agar Ansaar al-Sunnah ke sath hai to us par pairwi karna chaiye ya agar kisi aur jamaat ke sath hai to us par pairwi karni chaiye. Use haq par amal karna chaiye aur sare jamaat ki madad karni chaiye haq ke hawale se lekin use kisi khas tarike ke soch par amal nai karna chaiye, use tark na karte hue, chahe agar baad me wo galat ya batil hi nikle. Ye galat hai aur iski ijazat nahi hai. Use un jamaat ke sath rahna chaiye jisme wo sahih hai aur un ke sath un muamlat me nahi rahna chaiye jo galat hai.
[Majmoo' Fataawa wa Maqaalaat Mutanaawi'ah li Samaahat al-Shaykh al-'Allaamah 'Abd al-'Azeez ibn Baaz (may Allaah have mercy on him), p. 237].
Shaykh Muhammad ibn ‘Uthaymeen ne farmaya
Jadeed daur me Kuch log jinhone salafiyyah ka rasta apnaya unlogo ne har us shaks ko gumraah kahna shuru kar diya jo unse ikhtilaf karta hai yaha tak ke agar wo shaks sahih ho, aur kuch logo ne Hibz ka rasta apnaya jis tarha se dusre groh(parties) ne apnaya tha jo apne ap ko Mazhab e Islam se hone ka dawah karte hai. Ye kuch aesa hai jo na-pasandida hai aur jiski manzuri nahi di ja sakti, aur unlogo se ye kahna chaiye: Salaf as saleh ke tarike ko dekho, wo kya kiya karte the? Un ke tarike ko dekho aur kaise wo khule dil ke the jab ikhtilaf ki surat aati thi jisme ijtihaad jaiyz hai (aur ikhtilaf kabile qubul hai). Woh bade masail me bhi Ikhtilaf karte the, eeman aur amal ke masail me. Ap ko kuch chize milengi, jaise, RasoolAllah ѕαℓℓαℓℓαн нυ αℓℓαyнє ωαѕαℓℓαм ka Allah ko dekhne pe inkar karna jab ki dusro ne kaha ki unhone dekha hai. Apne kuch ko ye kahte hue dekha hoga ki qayamat ke din jo chiz tauli(weighted) jayegi wo hai aamaal jab ki dusre log kahte the ki wo to aamaal ki kitab hai jo tauli jayengi. Ap unhe dekhenge ki wo Fiqh ke muamlo me bhi kafi had tak ikhtilaf karte the, jaise Nikah, wirasat ka hissa, khareed aur farokhqt, aur dusre muamlo me. Lekin is ke bawujud unhone ek dusre ko gumraah nahi kaha.
Salafiyyah ek khas Jamaat ke taur par jiski alag khushusiyat ho jisme log un logo ke siwa sabko gumraah kahe, in logo ka salafiyyah se kuch lena-dena nahi hai. Jaha tak ke salafiya jiska matlab salaf ki pairwi karna eeman me, kalimaat aur aamaal me, ittihad, mutabqat aur shafkat aur muhabbat ke taraf bulana jaisa ki RasoolAllah ѕαℓℓαℓℓαн нυ αℓαyнє ωαѕαℓℓαм ne farmaya: “Momin ke Misaal ek jism me Muhabbat, rahmat aur shafkat ki tarha hai; jab koi ek hisse me takleef hoti hai toh fir baaki hissa bhi us ke sath jaagta hai aur bukhar me shamil ho jata hai- YE ASAL SALAFIYYAH HAI
[Liqaa'aat al-Baab al-Maftooh, 3/246]
Shaykh ul Hadeeth Umar Siddique jo ki ek Salafi ulema hai (Gujran wala Pakistan se)
Maine Shaykh Umar Siddique se pucha Shaykh Shanqiti ke fatawe ke mutallik ki kya wo sahih hai ya galat, Unhone farmaya hamne kabhi bhi ye Dawah nahi kiya hai ki sirf ham hi log jannat me jayenge, hamara maukuf ye hai ki saare log jannat me jayenge siwae mushrikeen ke yaha tak ke Bidatee bhi qayamat ke din jannat me jayenge saza ke baad in shaa Allah, aur unhone ek hadith ka hawala diya
“Jannat ke logo ki 120 kataar(rows) hai jisme se 80 is ummat se hai aur 40 dusri ummat se.”
(Reported by al-Tirmidhi, 3469; he said this is a hasan hadeeth)
Shaykh Saalih al Munajjid farmate hai:
Jannat ke sawal ke hawale se ki woh sirf Ahl as-Sunnah jamaat hi hai. Ye galat raae hai. Kisi bhi ulema ne aesa nahi kaha hai; balki Muhammad ѕαℓℓαℓℓαн нυ αℓℓαyнє ωαѕαℓℓαм ke sabhi ummati jinhone un ke pukar ka jawab diya wo jannat me dakhil honge; koi isse mahroom nahi rahega siwae un ke jo apne aediyo ke bal palat jaye aur unhone apne Islam ko mansukh kar diya wo amal kar ke jo unhe Islam se mukammal taur par bahar karde, aur wo Biddati jo shariah ke khilaf gaye aur ahl as- Sunnah se ikhtilaf kiya, wo un ahle tauheed ke gunah gaaro ki tarah pesh honge Allah ki marzi se jo azmat wala buland hai: agar usne chaha to wo saza dega aur agar usne chaha to wo muaf kar dega, fir sabka aakhri mukaam Jannat hoga, agar uski maut Tawheed par hui hai.
Shaykh Ibn Taymiyyah farmate hai
“ومَن قال إن الثنتين والسبعين فِرقة كل واحد منهم يكفر كفراً ينقل عن الملة : فقد خالف الكتاب والسنَّة وإجماع الصحابة رضوان الله عليهم أجمعين ، بل وإجماع الأئمة الأربعة وغير الأربعة ؛ فليس فيهم مَن كفَّر كلَّ واحد من الثنتين وسبعين فرقة”
Jo ye kahta hai ki saare 72 firqo ne kufr kiya is tarah se jisse wo Islam ke bahar aa gae ho to wo Quran, Sunnah, sahabao ke ijma aur char Imam ke Ijma aur dusro ke khilaf gaya hai. In maise koi bhi nahi hai jisne sare 72 firqo ko kafir samjha. End quote.
Majmoo‘ al-Fataawa, 7/218 [Islamqa fatwa no. 159301]
Abu Huraira r.a. riwayat karte hai ki RasoolAllah ѕαℓℓαℓℓαн нυ αℓℓαyнє ωαѕαℓℓαм ne farmaya, “Agar koi shaks apne (Muslim) bhai ko Kafir kahta hai to beshak undono maise koi ek (kafir) hai.” [matlab agar jise kafir kaha ja raha hai wo kafir na hua to jisne kafir kaha hai wo kafir ho jata hai].
Sahih al-Bukhari, hadith- 6103.
Thabit bin Ad-Dahhak r.a. riwayat karte hai ki RasoolAllah ѕαℓℓαℓℓαн нυ αℓℓαyнє ωαѕαℓℓαм ne farmaya, “Jisne ek momin pe lanat ki to wo aesa hai ki usne uska katl kiya aur jisne ek momin ko Kafir kaha to ye aesa hai ki usne usko maar dala.”
Sahih al-Bukhari, 6105.
In sare hawalo se ye pata chalta hai ki TAKFEER kARNA GALAT HAI, isse RasoolAllah aur ulemao ne mana farmaya hai. Sochne ki baat hai ki kisi Dusre par Kafir ka fatawa lagana farz nahi hai, agar koi ho ga bhi to uska muamla Allah se hai. Ham risk kyu le. Allah hame Takfeer karne ke jahalat se bachae.

The 9 Foods You Should Never Eat
By Dr. Mercola
Many foods have been heavily promoted as being healthy when they are nothing more than pernicious junk foods. In the featured article, Clean Plates1 founder Jared Koch shared his list of nine staple foods that are far less “good for you” than you’ve been led to believe.Here, I expand on the selections that are mentioned in the featured article.
1. Canned Tomatoes
Many leading brands of canned foods contain BPA -- a toxic chemical linked to reproductive abnormalities, neurological effects, heightened risk of breast and prostate cancers, diabetes, heart disease and other serious health problems. According to Consumer Reports’ testing, just a couple of servings of canned food can exceed the safety limits for daily BPA exposure for children.High acidity — a prominent characteristic of tomatoes – causes BPA to leach into your food. To avoid this hazardous chemical, avoid canned foods entirely and stick to fresh fruits and vegetables, or switch over to brands that use glass containers instead—especially for acidic foods like tomatoes.
2. Processed Meats
As Koch warns, processed deli meats like salami, ham, and roast beef are typically made with meats from animals raised in confined animal feeding operations (CAFOs).This means they’re given growth hormones, antibiotics and other veterinary drugs, and raised in deplorable conditions that promote disease, these meats are also filled with sodium nitrite (a commonly used preservative and antimicrobial agent that also adds color and flavor) and other chemical flavorings and dyes.Nitrites can be converted into nitrosamines in your body, which are potent cancer-causing chemicals. Research has linked nitrites to higher rates of colorectal, stomach and pancreatic cancer. But that’s not all. Most processed deli meats also contain other cancer-promoting chemicals that are created during cooking. These include:
- Heterocyclic Amines (HCAs) which are hazardous compounds created in meats and other foods that have been cooked at high temperatures. According to research, processed meats are clearly associated with an increased risk of stomach, colon and breast cancers.
- Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs): Many processed meats are smoked as part of the curing process, which causes PAHs to form. PAHs can also form when grilling. When fat drips onto the heat source, causing excess smoke, and the smoke surrounds your food, it can transfer cancer-causing PAHs to the meat.
- Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs): When food is cooked at high temperatures—including when it is pasteurized or sterilized—it increases the formation of AGEs in your food. AGEs build up in your body over time leading to oxidative stress, inflammation and an increased risk of heart disease, diabetes and kidney disease.
The truth is, processed meats are not a healthful choice for anyone and should beavoided entirely, according to a 2011 review of more than 7,000 clinical studies examining the connection between diet and cancer. The report was commissioned by The World Cancer Research Fund2 (WCRF) using money raised from the general public. Therefore the findings were not influenced by any vested interests, which makes it all the more reliable.It's the biggest review of the evidence ever undertaken, and it confirms previous findings: Processed meats increase your risk of cancer, especially bowel cancer, and NO amount of processed meat is "safe." You’re far better off ditching the deli meats and opting instead for fresh organically-raised grass-fed meats, or wild caught salmon.
3. Margarine
The unfortunate result of the low-fat diet craze has been the shunning of healthful fats such as butter, and public health has declined as a result of this folly. There are a myriad of unhealthy components to margarine and other butter impostors, including:
- Trans fats: These unnatural fats in margarine, shortenings and spreads are formed during the process of hydrogenation, which turns liquid vegetable oils into a solid fat. Trans fats contribute to heart disease, cancer, bone problems, hormonal imbalance and skin disease; infertility, difficulties in pregnancy and problems with lactation; and low birth weight, growth problems and learning disabilities in children. A US government panel of scientists determined that man-made trans fats are unsafe at any level.
- Free radicals: Free radicals and other toxic breakdown products are the result of high temperature industrial processing of vegetable oils. They contribute to numerous health problems, including cancer and heart disease.
- Emulsifiers and preservatives: Numerous additives of questionable safety are added to margarines and spreads. Most vegetable shortening is stabilized with preservatives like BHT.
- Hexane and other solvents: Used in the extraction process, these industrial chemicals can have toxic effects.
Good-old-fashioned butter, when made from grass-fed cows, is rich in a substance called conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). Much of the reason why butter is vilified is because it contains saturated fat. If you're still in the mindset that saturated fat is harmful for your health, then please read theHealthy Fats section of myOptimized Nutrition Plan to learn why saturated fat is actually good for you.
4. Vegetable Oils
Of all the destructive foods available to us, those made with heated vegetable oils are some of the worst. Make no mistake about it--vegetable oils are not the health food that you were lead to believe they were. This is largely due to the fact that they are highly processed, and when consumed in massive amounts, as they are by most Americans, they seriously distort the important omega-6 to omega-3 ratio. Ideally, this ratio is 1:1.Anytime you cook a food, you run the risk of creating heat-induced damage. The oils you choose to cook with must be stable enough to resist chemical changes when heated to high temperatures, or you run the risk of damaging your health. One of the ways vegetable oils can inflict damage is by converting your good cholesterol into bad cholesterol—by oxidizing it. When you cook with polyunsaturated vegetable oils (such as canola, corn, and soy oils), oxidized cholesterol is introduced into your system.As the oil is heated and mixed with oxygen, it goes rancid. Rancid oil is oxidized oil and should NOT be consumed—it leads directly to vascular disease. Trans-fats are introduced when these oils are hydrogenated, which increases your risk of chronic diseases like breast cancer and heart disease.So what's the best oil to cook with?Of all the available oils, coconut oil is the oil of choice for cooking because it is nearly a completely saturated fat, which means it is much less susceptible to heat damage. And coconut oil is one of the most unique and beneficial fats for your body. For more in-depth information about the many benefits of coconut oil, please see this special report. Olive oil, while certainly a healthful oil, is easily damaged by heat and is best reserved for drizzling cold over salad.
5. Microwave Popcorn
Perfluoroalkyls, which include perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), and perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), are chemicals used to keep grease from leaking through fast food wrappers, are being ingested by people through their food and showing up as contaminants in blood. Microwave popcorn bags are lined with PFOA, and when they are heated the compound leaches onto the popcorn.These chemicals are part of an expanding group of chemicals commonly referred to as "gender-bending" chemicals, because they can disrupt your endocrine system and affect your sex hormones. The EPA has ruled PFCs as "likely carcinogens," and has stated that PFOA "poses developmental and reproductive risks to humans." Researchers have also linked various PFCs to a range of other health dangers, such as:
- Infertility -- A study published in the journal Human Reproduction3 found that both PFOA and PFOS (perfluorooctane sulfonate), dramatically increased the odds of infertility. PFOA was linked to a 60 to 154 percent increase in the chance of infertility.
- Thyroid disease -- A 2010 study4 found that PFOA can damage your thyroid function. Individuals with the highest PFOA concentrations were more than twice as likely to report current thyroid disease, compared to those with the lowest PFOA concentrations. Your thyroid contains thyroglobulin protein, which binds to iodine to form hormones, which in turn influence essentially every organ, tissue and cell in your body. Thyroid hormones are also required for growth and development in children. Thyroid disease, if left untreated, can lead to heart disease, infertility, muscle weakness, and osteoporosis.
- Cancer -- PFOA has been associated with tumors in at least four different organs in animal tests (liver, pancreas, testicles and mammary glands in rats), and has been associated with increases in prostate cancer in PFOA plant workers.
- Immune system problems -- Several studies by scientists in Sweden indicate that PFCs have an adverse effect on your immune system. As described in a report on PFCs by the Environmental Working Group (EWG), PFOA was found to decrease all immune cell subpopulations studied, in the thymus and spleen, and caused immunosupression.
- Increased LDL cholesterol levels – A 2010 study in the Archives of Pediatric & Adolescent Medicine5 found that children and teens with higher PFOA levels had higher levels of total cholesterol and LDL or "bad" cholesterol, while PFOS was associated with increased total cholesterol, including both LDL cholesterol and HDL or "good" cholesterol.
I strongly recommend avoiding any product you know containing these toxic compounds, particularly non-stick cookware, but also foods sold in grease-proof food packaging, such as fast food and microwave popcorn. Clearly, if you're eating fast food or junk food, PFCs from the wrapper may be the least of your problems, but I think it's still important to realize that not only are you not getting proper nutrition from the food itself, the wrappers may also add to your toxic burden.
6. Non-Organic Potatoes and Other Fresh Produce Known for High Pesticide Contamination
Your best bet is to buy only organic fruits and vegetables, as synthetic agricultural chemicals are not permissible under the USDA organic rules. That said, not all conventionally grown fruits and vegetables are subjected to the same amount of pesticide load. While Koch focuses on potatoes, as they tend to take up a lot of pesticides and other agricultural chemicals present in the soil, I would recommend reviewing the "Shopper’s Guide to Pesticides in Produce"6 by the Environmental Working Group.Of the 48 different fruit and vegetable categories tested by the EWG for the 2013 guide, the following 15 fruits and vegetables had the highest pesticide load, making them the most important to buy or grow organically:
Apples Celery Cherry tomatoes Cucumbers Grapes Hot peppers Nectarines (imported) Peaches Potatoes Spinach Strawberries Sweet bell peppers Kale Collard greens Summer squash In contrast, the following foods were found to have the lowest residual pesticide load, making them the safest bet among conventionally grown vegetables. Note that a small amount of sweet corn and most Hawaiian papaya, although low in pesticides, are genetically engineered (GE). If you’re unsure of whether the sweet corn or papaya is GE, I’d recommend opting for organic varieties:
Asparagus Avocado Cabbage Cantaloupe Sweet corn (non-GMO) Eggplant Grapefruit Kiwi Mango Mushrooms Onions Papayas (non-GMO. Most Hawaiian papaya is GMO) Pineapple Sweet peas (frozen) Sweet potatoes
7. Table Salt
Salt is essential for life—you cannot live without it. However, regular ‘table salt’ and the salt found in processed foods are NOT identical to the salt your body really needs. In fact, table salt has practically nothing in common with natural salt. One is health damaging, and the other is healing.
- Processed salt is 98 percent sodium chloride, and the remaining two percent comprises man-made chemicals, such as moisture absorbents, and a little added iodine. These are dangerous chemicals like ferrocyanide and aluminosilicate. Some European countries, where water fluoridation is not practiced, also add fluoride to table salt
- Natural salt is about 84 percent sodium chloride. The remaining 16 percent of natural salt consists of other naturally occurring minerals, including trace minerals like silicon, phosphorous and vanadium
Given that salt is absolutely essential to good health, I recommend switching to a pure, unrefined salt. My favorite is an ancient, all-natural sea salt from the Himalayas. Himalayan salt is completely pure, having spent many thousands of years maturing under extreme tectonic pressure, far away from impurities, so it isn't polluted with the heavy metals and industrial toxins of today. And it's hand-mined, hand-washed, and minimally processed. Himalayan salt is only 85 percent sodium chloride, the remaining 15 percent contains 84 trace minerals from our prehistoric seas. Unrefined natural salt is important to many biological processes, including:
- Being a major component of your blood plasma, lymphatic fluid, extracellular fluid, and even amniotic fluid
- Carrying nutrients into and out of your cells
- Maintain and regulate blood pressure
- Increasing the glial cells in your brain, which are responsible for creative thinking and long-term planning
- Helping your brain communicate with your muscles, so that you can move on demand via sodium-potassium ion exchange
While natural unprocessed salt has many health benefits, that does not mean you should use it with impunity. Another important factor is the potassium to sodium ratio of your diet. Imbalance in this ratio can not only lead to hypertension (high blood pressure) and other health problems, including heart disease, memory decline, erectile dysfunction and more. The easiest way to avoid this imbalance is by avoiding processed foods, which are notoriously low in potassium while high in sodium. Instead, eat a diet of whole, ideally organically-grown foods to ensure optimal nutrient content. This type of diet will naturally provide much larger amounts of potassium in relation to sodium.
8. Soy Protein Isolate and Other Unfermented Soy Products
Sadly, most of what you have been led to believe by the media about soy is simply untrue. One of the worst problems with soy comes from the fact that 90 to 95 percent of soybeans grown in the US are genetically engineered (GE), and these are used to create soy protein isolate. Genetically engineered soybeans are designed to be "Roundup ready,” which means they’re engineered to withstand otherwise lethal doses of herbicide.The active ingredient in Roundup herbicide is called glyphosate, which is responsible for the disruption of the delicate hormonal balance of the female reproductive cycle. What's more, glyphosate is toxic to the placenta, which is responsible for delivering vital nutrients from mother to child, and eliminating waste products. Once the placenta has been damaged or destroyed, the result can be miscarriage. In those children born to mothers who have been exposed to even a small amount of glyphosate, serious birth defects can result.Glyphosate’s mechanism of harm was only recently identified, and demonstrates how this chemical disrupts cellular function and induce many of our modern diseases, including autism. Soy protein isolate can be found in protein bars, meal replacement shakes, bottled fruit drinks, soups and sauces, meat analogs, baked goods, breakfast cereals and some dietary supplements.Even if you are not a vegetarian and do not use soymilk or tofu, it is important to be a serious label reader. There are so many different names for soy additives, you could be bringing home a genetically modified soy-based product without even realizing it. Soy expert Dr. Kaayla Daniel offers a free Special Report7, "Where the Soys Are," on her Web site. It lists the many "aliases" that soy might be hiding under in ingredient lists -- words like "bouillon," "natural flavor" and "textured plant protein."Besides soy protein isolate, ALL unfermented soy products are best avoided if you value your health. Thousands of studies have linked unfermented soy to malnutrition, digestive distress, immune-system breakdown, thyroid dysfunction, cognitive decline, reproductive disorders and infertility—even cancer and heart disease.The only soy with health benefits is organic soy that has been properly fermented, and these are the only soy products I ever recommend consuming. After a long fermentation process, the phytate and "anti-nutrient" levels of soybeans are reduced, and their beneficial properties become available to your digestive system. To learn more, please see this previous article detailing the dangers of unfermented soy.
9. Artificial Sweeteners
Contrary to popular belief, studies have found that artificial sweeteners such as aspartame can stimulate your appetite, increase carbohydrate cravings, and stimulate fat storage and weight gain. In one of the most recent of such studies8, saccharin and aspartame were found to cause greater weight gain than sugar.Aspartame is perhaps one of the most problematic. It is primarily made up of aspartic acid and phenylalanine. The phenylalanine has been synthetically modified to carry a methyl group, which provides the majority of the sweetness. That phenylalanine methyl bond, called a methyl ester, is very weak, which allows the methyl group on the phenylalanine to easily break off and form methanol.You may have heard the claim that aspartame is harmless because methanol is also found in fruits and vegetables. However, in fruits and vegetables, the methanol is firmly bonded to pectin, allowing it to be safely passed through your digestive tract. Not so with the methanol created by aspartame; there it’s not bonded to anything that can help eliminate it from your body.Methanol acts as a Trojan horse; it's carried into susceptible tissues in your body, like your brain and bone marrow, where the alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) enzyme converts it into formaldehyde, which wreaks havoc with sensitive proteins and DNA. All animals EXCEPT HUMANS have a protective mechanism that allows methanol to be broken down into harmless formic acid. This is why toxicology testing on animals is a flawed model. It doesn't fully apply to people.
Guidelines for Healthy Food
Whatever food you’re looking to eat, whether organic or locally grown, from either your local supermarket or a farmer’s market, the following are signs of a high-quality, healthy food. Most often, the best place to find these foods is from a sustainable agricultural group in your area. You can also review my free nutrition plan to get started on a healthy eating program today:
- It’s grown without pesticides and chemical fertilizers (organic foods fit this description, but so do some non-organic foods)
- It’s not genetically engineered
- It contains no added growth hormones, antibiotics, or other drugs
- It does not contain artificial anything, nor any preservatives
- It is fresh (if you have to choose between wilted organic produce or fresh conventional produce, the latter may still be the better option as freshness is important for optimal nutrient content)
- It was not grown in a factory farm
- It is grown with the laws of nature in mind (meaning animals are fed their native diets, not a mix of grains and animal byproducts, and have free-range access to the outdoors)
- It is grown in a sustainable way (using minimal amounts of water, protecting the soil from burnout, and turning animal wastes into natural fertilizers instead of environmental pollutants)
