Characteristics of the womenone should marr
M
 ARRIAGE IS FOR enjoy-ment and to build a right-eous family and a soundsociety. Based on this, the womanthat one should marry is the one by  whom the fulfilment of these twogoals may be achieved. She is the one who is adorned with physical (outer)beauty and abstract (inner) beauty.
 The physical beauty
: it is the perfec-tion of the physical appearance, be-cause whenever the woman has abeautiful appearance and a soft voice,the eye will become tranquil whenlooking at her. When the ear listens toher speech the heart becomes recep-tive to her, and it delights the chest,then ones soul feels at ease with her.In her, the saying of the Most High isrealized: {
 And among His Signs isthat He created for you wives fromamong yourselves, that you mayfind repose in them, and He has put between you affection andmercy.
} [ar-Room 30:21].
 The inner beauty
: it is the complete-ness of the Deen (Religion) and man-ners. Whenever the woman is morereligious and has perfect manners, she will be more beloved to the soul and amore suitable choice.For the woman who possesses Deenfulfils the commands of Allaah, pro-tects the rights of her husband, hisbed, his children, and his money, andsupports him in the obedience of Al-laah the Most High. If he forgets, shereminds him. If he slackens she in- vigorates him, and if he gets angry shepleases him. The mannered womanendears herself to her husband andrespects him; she does not delay any-thing that he likes hastened, and shedoes not hasten anything he likes de-layed.

Moving to New Building 
E
XCLAMATIONS OF ALHAMDULILLAAH echoed when everyone read the Albaseerahissue, which announced the purchaseof a new home for Masjid AhlulQur’aan Wa Sunnah. Alhamdulillaah, the paperwork hasbeen completed and the property isofficially ours. However, it still needsmajor renovation before we can fully move in.Since the purchase of the property,the Shoora has been very active inplanning for our new masjid, and last week alone there were a couple of executive meetings headed by brother Zahid Rashid to discussfuture plans to ensure prompt andswift renovation and to speed thingsup to move in by Ramadaan. The response to our appeals fordonation and professional expertise was lower than expected, which, if itcontinues, will no doubt put plansfor a Ramadan occupancy injeopardy.

Characteristics of the women one should marry 
(Continued from page 1)
 
 The Messenger
was asked :
“ 
 Which of the women are best
?” He said, “the one who if he looks at her,she pleases him, and she obeys him when he commands, and she does not oppose him regarding herself, or his wealth in that which he hates.” 
 [Ahmad, an-Nasaa’ee] And in another Hadeeth he
said:
“Marry the one who is loving and fertile, for with you (and your offspring) I will outnumber the prophets” 
or he said,
“the nations”.
 [Abu Daawood, an-Nasaa’ee]If it is possible to find a woman who has the inner beauty and theouter beauty, then this is perfectionand bliss with the success grantedby Allaah.

 According to Br. Abdul Majeed,coordinator of the renovation project,preliminary work is already underway  with architects working on therenovation plan to obtain thenecessary building permits.In the meantime, there is already agood idea of what work is required,and the building committee iscompiling a master list of volunteers,so that their services can be allocatedto specific jobs as soon as the permitsare obtained. And while the services of everyone areneeded, the building committeeparticularly emphasized the need forthe services of those professional,licensed contractors within ourjamaa’ah. This being, to ensure that therenovation will be completedaccording to the various building codes, which we must adhere to beforea Certificate of Occupancy can beissued.Br. Rafeek attributed the lukewarmresponse for volunteers and donationsto the present economic climate, which is making it difficult to givefinancially, or even to offer services forfree. However we appeal to ourbrothers and sisters to make thesacrifice - even if it means sticking justa dollar into the collection box. The Masjid'sadministration isabsolutely committed anddetermined toeducate and unitethe community. It istheir strong desire tomake thecommunity theirfirst priority. They have already outlined futureprojects whichrevolve aroundserving thecommunity to thebest of one’s ability. The new projects are very comprehensive and thoughtfully planned, and will inshaa Allaah, helpour masjid to become a center forevery believer to turn to for guidanceand help.Modern technology will be used toserve and educate our community better and to bridge the gap betweenthe scholars and the Ummah. There will be monthly conferences, seminarsand intensive courses as well as weekly classes in all Islaamic sciences,youth workshops, sisters activities,community services, family counseling,enhanced medical and social awarenessprograms, monthly publications, andmuch, much more Inshaa Allaah!
