The Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
`The most perfect believer in faith is the one whose character is finest and who is kindest to his wife.’
( Quotes on marriage from Tirmidhi and Nasa’i)

The Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
KHADIJAH BINT KHUWAYLID
Narrated Abu Hurayrah: Jibril came to the Prophet (peace be upon him) and said, “O Messenger of Allah! This is Khadijah coming to you with a dish having meat soup (or food or drink). When she reaches you, greet her on behalf of her Lord (i.e. Allah) and on my behalf, and give her the glad tidings of having a Qasab (palace in Paradise) wherein there will be neither any noise nor any fatigue (trouble).” [Bukhari] Khadijah, may Allah be pleased with her, came from a noble family. Her father Khuwaylid had been one of the most honored leaders of their tribe until he was killed in battle. Her husband had also died, leaving her a very wealthy woman. When Muhammad (peace be upon him) was still a young man, she entrusted him with some of her wealth, asking him to trade with it in Syria on her behalf. He was already well known for his honesty, truthfulness and trustworthiness. He returned from Syria after having made a large profit for Khadijah. For the next fifteen years they lived happily together, and Khadijah bore several children. Their first child, a son whom they named Qasim, died when he was only two years old. However, Muhammad and Khadijah also had four daughters who survived: Zaynab, Ruqayya, Umm Kulthum and Fatima. Then Abdullah was born to him but also died in his infancy. The more Khadijah came to know about her husband, the more she loved and respected him. Everyone in Makkah called him ‘al-Amin’, which means ‘the trustworthy one’, and she, more than anyone else, knew how fitting this name was. It became Muhammad’s custom each year to spend the month of Ramadan in seclusion and reflection in a cave on the mountain of Hira, which is on the outskirts of Makkah. Khadijah would always make sure that he was provided with food and drink during his retreat. Towards the end of one Ramadan, when he was forty and Khadijah fifty-five, Muhammad suddenly appeared at their house in the middle of the night, trembling with fear and saying, “Cover me up, cover me up!” Khadijah was very alarmed to see him in such a state. Quickly she wrapped a blanket around his shoulders and, when he had calmed down, she asked him to describe exactly what had happened. He told her how a being whom he had never seen before – in fact it was the angel Jibril – had suddenly appeared to him while he was asleep and had said, “Recite!” “Recite, in the Name of your Lord who created, created man from a clot, Recite, and your Lord is the Most Gracious, Who taught with the pen, taught man what he did not know.” [Quran 96:1-5] “Oh Muhammad,” said Jibril eventually, “you are the Messenger of Allah and I am Jibril,” and with these words he disappeared from Muhammad’s sight.

Horses that have been abused, starved or otherwise neglected are too often abandoned and left to fend for themselves in the desert.
It’s a cruel thing to do — the desert can kill horses as easily as it kills people. But if they are lucky enough to be found alive, the horses may end up at HEART of Tucson, a rescue organization that recently was granted nonprofit status.
“You should see some of them that walk in the door,” HEART President Judy Glore said recently.
Strolling around Lazy Bear Ranch on the far east side is like walking through the chapters of a novel. Every one of the 15 or so horses has a story. And Glore knows them all.
One of the rescues, named Chance, arrived at Glore’s ranch in “shutdown mode” with hips that looked like bat wings. He survived and is flourishing.
Streaking Kitty, who had a successful career on the local racing circuit, could hardly stand and had to be lifted on a crane to repair her feet. When she was found in the desert, she was dehydrated, she couldn’t walk and “she had huge sores on both of her hips,” Glore said.
They identified her through the tattoo on her lip. Now, she too is doing well.
Another, an orphaned foal named Domino who was only weeks old, came in nearly blind in one eye and with a broken leg and several other problems. Today he is thriving under the care of HEART and with the loving companionship of a goat. Read the rest of this entry »
