Dear readers, Assalamo Alaikum Warahmatullah. Accept heartiest season’s greetings. I anticipate, this issue of Bakhabar discovers you, your family, relatives and neighbors in best of health and Eimaan. At the onset, I would like to share the news of Bihar Anjuman being selected for the “organization of the year” award by Twocircles.net (TCN), an online news-and-views forum of Indian Muslims. We at Bihar Anjuman treat this award less as an achievement and recognition and more as an increase of responsibilities, as the level of expectations associated with us has elevated manifold after this announcement. Inshallah, with the support and love of all, we will strive harder to contribute more for the social, educational and economical upliftment of the neglected lot of our community. May Allah accept our deeds and bless us with more determination and motivation to succeed in our mission. Amen..! Through the platform of Bakhabar, I will like to share an issue of concern that pushes me in deep botheration often: “reading Quran with meaning” Quran: the last revealed Word of Allah (swt), is the prime source of every Muslim's faith and practice. It deals with all subjects that concern us as human beings: wisdom, doctrine, worship, law and the highest philosophy. At the same time, it provides guidelines for a just society, proper human conduct and an equitable economic system. Quran had given the basis for various inventions and discoveries by followers of other religions. But Alas..! The community that deserved most this privilege of researches and create a scientific and social renaissance lagged far behind in this arena. Having an insight into the history of Indian subcontinent’s Muslims makes their un-fateful parting away from Quran very evident. They deprived themselves of their very fundamental right of understanding Quran and adopting its essence in their lives. We necessitated the presence of Quran in every household but limited it to the highest racks in our house….! We chose to see off our sisters and daughters in marriage, with a beautifully clad Quran, but never felt the importance to teach them what is written inside…..! We found it easier to appoint a “hafiz sb.” with a stick in hand to facilitate the mugging up of Quran by our child, but never bothered to let them know what it says….! Quran was revealed as a blessing to humankind, it is a book of hidayah. It is to be understood and practiced, not to be parroted round the clock without understanding a single word. Various groups and organizations are working with mission of educating Muslims on the importance of reading Quran with meaning, and implementing the teachings in their lives. Let’s be associated with such groups and claim our share in this sadqa-e-jariyah, or at least contribute our part as a Muslim, by introducing the concept of “Read Quran: to understand and implement” in our households. Wassalam, Syed Shibli Manzoor Tragic
or Shameful?
4 sponsors available for Coaching centres, but NO CENTRES ...!!! The month of October brought excellent news. We received first corporate sponsorship for the RAHBAR coaching project to stop drop-outs. Subhanallah! This Mmbai-based trading company which runs a top-class international school of its own, apart from a special colony for orphan children well-equipped with modern amenities, has started sponsoring one coaching centre, to start with. Once satisfied, they would sponsor many centres, insha-Allah, and we can see our dream of coaching centres in all the 60 districts of Bihar and Jharkhand come true, easily. Sponsors are available, but where are the hands that can establish and manage the coaching centres? This question was raised in the yahoogroup, but still, nobody has done enough in this respect. One online member challenged the entire group with a proposal to give his district all the coaching centres (one has already been established there), and he would establish and manage them all, before anybody else does. But, unfortunately, there is still deadly silence all around …!! Is it shameful, or tragic?
