The Dumb Witness
Masood Faraz, Bangalore.
ONCE there lived a farmer known as Rahmat. Hardworking as he was, he had
bought a number of farms where he grew pumpkins and had gathered for
himself a small fortune.
As it happened, he had to go to a nearby city in connection with a court case. It
would take him about a month. So he engaged a watchman to take care of hisfarm. Another farmer, Nawab Jan, living closeby, had become jealous of
Rahmats prosperity and could not see Rahmat a happy man at all.
So when Rahmat went to the city, Nawab bribed the watchman and began
plucking Rahmats pumpkins. The watchman would load them onto Nawabs
bullock cart and later the pumpkins were sold in the market. The Watchman

would get his share in the money so earned.
This continued till Rahmat returned to his village. Nawab had made quite a lot of
money. Rahmat was upset to see a wide patch of farm without pumpkins. When
Rahmat asked his watchman he acted as if he was innocent and did not know
anything. Rahmat was a worried man now. He approached the Sarpanch
(village headman) of the panchayat, Sohan Lal. He told him that he suspected
Nawab for the theft but had no proof. Nawab was called to the Chaupal (villagesquare) and asked if he had a hand in the pilferage of pumpkins from Rahmats
farm. Nawab protested and the Sohan Lal was left with no choice but to let him
go.
The wise headman thought and came up with a scheme. He walked up to the
Nawabs barn, sat on the cart, yoked the bullock and let the bullock free to pull
the cart as it wished. As was its wont, the bullock reached Rahmats farm. The
headman plucked a few pumpkins and ordered them to be loaded onto the
cart. As a routine the bullock again took the cart to the vegetable market on the
beaten path. Although Nawab did not tell the truth the dumb bullock solved the
mystery.
The witness was enough to prove Nawabs guilt. As a punishment, the
headman asked Nawab and the watchman to return the money earned through
sale of stolen pumpkins and also slapped a heavy fine on the devious duo.

Shazia Andaleeb
THIS story belongs to the time of the Caliphs and the Qazis. When disputes
were settled in courts headed by Qazis who ruled fairly and justly using their
experience and expertise in detecting the truth. When there were no lawyers toturn truth into lies and twist lies into truth.
There was once a wayside inn which consisted of a single long dormitory. One
day there were five men who were sharing it. One of them happened to be a
diamond merchant. The five men spent the night together and in the morning,
when they were ready to go their separate ways, the diamond merchant
discovered that his bag of diamonds was missing. He was immediately
suspicious of the four persons he had shared the room with him and wasconvinced that one of them was a thief.
He approached the local Qazi with his plea. The Qazi summoned the four men
and questioned them. No one admitted to having stolen the diamonds. Having
reached this dead-end with those men, the Qazi gave them each a stick. The
Qazi then said: The sticks given to you are the same in length, whoever of you

here is the thief, his stick will grow longer by two inches through the night So
tomorrow morning we shall know who the thief among you is
After this, the four men were confined in different rooms for the night. The thief
among them grew nervous. He was scared that the stick might actually grow
and prove him guilty. During the course of the night, he struck upon the idea to
shorten the stick by two inches so that it remains the same as before even if it
grows. He was now confident that he will not be caught.
The next morning, when the Qazis court assembled, the four accused were
brought in. Their sticks were taken back and measured. It was found that one of
the sticks was two inches shorter than the rest. The Qazi knew who the thief
was and ordered him to return the diamonds to their rightful owner. And he
ordered him to be whipped 50 times as a punishment for his crime of theft.

Churchill, the prime minister of England, was saved from certain deathduring his childhood. And Chruchills father funded schooling of his
saviours son who became the inventor of Pencillin. Here lies an
interesting story.
HIS name was Fleming, and he was a poor
Scottish farmer. One day, while trying to make a
living for his family, he heard a cry for help

coming from a nearby bog. He dropped his
tools and ran to the bog. There, mired to his
waist in black muck, was a terrified boy,
screaming and struggling to free himself.
Farmer Fleming saved the lad from what could
have been a slow and terrifying death.
The next day, a fancy carriage pulled up to theScotsmans sparse surroundings. An elegantly dressed nobleman stepped out
and introduced himself as the father of the boy Fleming had saved. I want to
repay you, said the nobleman. You saved my sons life.
No, I cant accept payment for what I did, the Scottish farmer replied, waving
off the offer.
At that moment, the Flemings own son came to the door of the family hovel.
Is that your son? The nobleman asked.
Yes, the farmer replied proudly.
Ill make you a deal. Let me provide him with the level of education my son will
enjoy. If the lad is anything like his father, hell no doubt grow to be a man we
both will be proud of.
And that he did. Farmer Flemings son attended the very best schools and in
time, he graduated from St. Marys Hospital Medical School in London, and
went on to become known throughout the world as the noted Sir Alexander
Fleming, the discoverer of Penicillin. He was later awarded the Nobel Prize for
medicine.

Years afterward, the same noble mans son who was saved from the bog was
stricken with pneumonia. What saved his life this time? Penicillin. The name of
the nobleman? Lord Randolph Churchill. His sons name? Sir Winston
Churchill.
Someone once said: What goes around comes around.... How true.
And just a final little reminder... Work like you dont need the money. Love likeyouve never been hurt. Sing like nobodys listening.

Significance of Wordings of Salat
Shafia Ahmed, Chennai
SALAT (Namaz) is really a very blessed and auspicious observance. Every
word uttered in it is filled with Allahs greatness and sanctity. Sanaa, the
opening prayer of Salat contains an extremely devotional meaning viz:
Subhaanaka Allaahumma Wa bihamdika wa tabaarakasmuka wa ta
aalaa jadduka wa laa ilaaha ghairak
O Allah! I praise thy Sanctity. Thou art free from all blemishes. Thou art above
anything that is not the best. I praise Thy glory. All virtues and beauties are
admittedly for Thee and befit Thee. Thy name is blessed and in fact so blessed
that blesses everything over which it is mentioned. Thy eminence is most
exalted. Thy magnificence is most sublime. There is no God save Thee. None

has ever been and none shall ever be fit to be worshipped save Thee.
Similarly in ruku we recite Subhaana rabbiyal azeem. Which means My
maginificent and Almighty Allah is free from all blemishes. I express my
humbleness and weakness before his greatness by bowing my head before
Him (for the bowing of head is the symbol of humbleness, just as a stiff neck is
the sign of arrogance).
Similarly in Sajdah we express our submission before Allah and declare Him
above all defects. Our head which is considered as the most superb part of our
body along with our eyes, ears, nose and tongue is placed on ground before
Him in the hope that He would show mercy and bestow His blessings on us.
Standing with our hands folded was the first expression of our submission. This
was further augmented by the bending of our head in ruku and it reached its
climax when we place our head on the ground before Him. In fact the wholeSalaat is an indication of submission and therefore a means of success in this
world and in the hereafter. May Allah through His kindness arouse all the
Muslims to offer such a salaat.

The Holy Kaabah
THE Kaabah is a small building which is cubic in shape. Muslims face towards
it five times a day while performing their namaz since the time of the Prophet
(Pbuh). People go around it during Haj and Umrah. This is called Tawaaf.
Kaabah is 12 meters high and its total size is 60 square meters. The inside ofthe Kaaba is 13 by 9 metres. The walls are one metre thick, the floor inside is
2.2 metres higher than the floor outside. Its ceiling and roof are made of
teakwood, which is topped with stainless steel. The stones inside are
unpolished while outside ones are polished.
This holy building was first constructed by the first man and Prophet Hazrat
Adam, peace be upon him, and later on reconstructed by Hazrat Ibrahim, Ismail
and Prophet Muhammad (Pbuh). No other building has had this honour. It hasbeen reconstructed up to 12 times. The Most recent construction took place
only four years ago. It has faced floods as well as human attacks in the past.
The Name Kaabah in Arabic means a high place with respect and prestige.

Mufti Nooruddin Samhoudi : (Died 911 A.H.) He was born in Samhoud in
Egypt. Everyone in Madinah was taught by him. He wrote three histories of
Madinah. The first one got burnt. Second is titledAl-Wafa while the third one is
Khulasatul Wafa and were published.
Sheikh Ali Muttaqi : (Died 975 AH). His native place was Jaunpur in India.Once he was travelling to Makkah, the boat was badly damaged and he could
salvage all his books with great difficulty. He buried his books near the shore
under the sand and set up a mark. It so happened that a Bedouin found them,
carried them to Makkah and began to sell among the Hajj pilgrims. He found
that the books belonged to none but himself. He quietly purchased the book.
Kanzul Ammalwritten by Syuti was compiled and edited by Muttaqi. But for his
effort, Kanzul Ammalwould have remained wrapped under obscurity.
Hafiz Shamsuddin Sakhawi : (831-975 A.H.). He read countless numbers of
books and taught at least 400 disciples. He was an authority in Hadith, Fiqh,
History and Qirat. His books were full of wisdom and knowledge.
Hafiz Ibne Hajr Asqalani : (772-852 A.H.). He authored nearly 150 books. Of
these the tafseer of Bukhari titled Sharah Fathul Bariis his magnum opus. He
used to deliver discourses on Tafseer, Hadith and Fiqh. He held at least 1,000
sessions on Grammar. Leading scholars used to attend his lectures.
Imam Badruddin Maini : (762-855 A.H.) He was a tireless reader of books
and was an equally rapid writer. He wrote Qaduriand Hawiin one nights time.
He had memorized books on history and lexicography. He wrote several books
among which Umdatul Qari Sharahul Bukhariare very famous.
