Group Quran Recitation – Eid Fitr Scheme
In the Name of Allah the Compassionate the Merciful
Group Quran Recitation with Quran 120 Scheme
فـَاقرَوا ما تَيَسَّر مِنَ القـُرآن
Recite, then, as much of the Quran as you may do with ease.
Quran 120 is a group which manages Quranic e-mails to its subscribers, and runs schemes related to Quran. As a tradition, Quran 120 runs group Quran recitation every year after Great Eid Fitr. Last year, this scheme was successfully performed, and thus, the team are going to run it again with the help and will of the Almighty Allah, gifting the reward to our Imam, Baqiyyat Allah A’zdam (PBUH).
Every member of the scheme is responsible for reciting half of a Hizb (حزب), starting from the point which is assigned to that member. You will be provided a table in which the detail of your daily recitation has been tabulated, and you can tick when you have accomplished the mission day by day. After 120 days, you have completed a full Quran recitation. Nonetheless, as the scheme is looking for 120 members who recite their own daily share, then you will commit in whole Quran recitation every day.
The scheme is going to commence by 10 September 2010. If you would like to join to this scheme, please express your interest by e-mailing to Quran120@gmail.com. You will be contacted to receive the details of your contribution.
If you have found this scheme interesting, please let the others know about it.

Imam Mahdi’s Great Birthday Anniversary
Congratulations on the birthday anniversary of Imam Mahdi (May the Almighty Allah advent his return) who is our live Imam. Such a birthday has been concurrent with a great day which has been appreciated since the time of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH&HF), and thus, has added to the value of this day. Further to celebrating this event which is a must for a true Shia, some other activities have been recommended by Ahl al-Bait as well, which includes full ablution (qasal), vigil and visiting Imam Hussain (PBUH) or reciting Ziaarat Ashuraa. Further items have been well mentioned in Mafaatih ul-Jinaan. The night of 15th of Sha’baan is a special night as well, as Imam Sadiq (PBUH) has narrated from his father, Imam Baqir (PBUH), that such night is the greatest after the Night of Qadr, and great Mersey of the Almighty Allah will be flowing.
Now, just imagine we are approaching to such a birthday; birthday of a person who is the reason of life, who is the connection between the Almighty Allah and anything else, who is God’s only survivor, who is our only saviour, who is the only infallible in the Universe, and many others… So, what is our duty for his birthday anniversary?
Our Shia lovely friends in Liverpool have worked hard to arrange for a memorable programme at Liverpool Towhid Centre. The event will be celebrated on the birthday anniversary of Imam Mahdi (PBUH), Tuesday, 27 July 2010.

Quran Recitation
In the Name of Allah the Compassionate the Merciful
Quran Recitation Gifted to Imam Mahdi (May the Almighty Allah Hasten His Advent)
Dear faithful brothers and sisters,
Hope you enjoy minutes of Sha’baan al-Mo’azzam, the month of the Messenger of Allah. Probably, further to the spiritual position of this months preceding holy Ramadan which could interpret its relation the Prophet, five of the Prophet’s sons have been born in this month to give this honour to the sons of Adam Abu-ul-Bashar (PBUH) concurrency of life with the purposes of the whole creation. We have just passed three outstanding birthday anniversaries of three VIPs of Karbala, are waiting for another one of them and to another birthday anniversary which relates to a person whose movement will direct the world finally, and this will, by the will of God, take place in a near future.
To highlight this, and to gain best of ours from these moments, Essa, one of LSS members, has planned a full round recitation of Quran to be gifted to Imam Mahdi (PBUH) with the hope of pleasing him. Those who are interested to assist him and contribute in getting their share of this great work should text their interest to Essa on 07747786812. If you are intending a particular part (joz’) of Quran to recite, mention it in your text message, and that will be taken subject to availability. Otherwise, Essa will inform you which part you would better to recite to complete the circle. Since this decision was made in the afternoon of July 17th, 15 parts of Quran were quickly taken until midnight. Those who cannot text Essa can leave a comment on the post. The comments will be dealt with as soon as possible to assign the parts. Please note that reciting the part assigned to you must be accomplished before Sha’baan al-Mo’azzam 15th.
May the Almighty Allah hasten the advent of our Imam (PBUH), gift mutually your gifts to His Hojjah, and make the lovely heart of our Imam (PBUH) happy with us.
Let’s pray for each other, for the faithful men and women either passed away or alive, and for visiting our Imam (PBUH) with a smile on his bright face very soon.

Martyrdom Anniversary – Imam Ali al-Naqi al-Hadi (PBUH)
Condolence on the martyrdom anniversary of Imam Ali al-Naqi (PBUH).
He regretfully spent a considerable part of his imamat period in prisons of the Abbasids who thought could confine Imam’s effect on the society with confining his holy body. However, this was a practice for the Shia to get used to being physically away from their imam to bear the time of Imam Mahdi (May Allah Hasten His Great Return). Imam Hadi (PBUH) was martyred on 3rd of Rajab 254 AH in Samirrah, Iraq.

Rajab Month

Rajab al-Morajjab
Rajab month has approached us, and this means that, in one order, we are approaching holy Ramadan, i.e. the greatest feast of Allah. In another order, Rajab means that the Almighty Allah is re-opening the special gates of Mersey. Definitely, the biggest Mersey gate that the Almighty Allah has ever opened has been the birth of the commander of faithfuls, Ali ibn Abi Talib (PBUH).
Several recommendations have been given by Ahl al-Bait for the believers to perform in this month. Just refer to Mafaatih al-Jinan and find lots of the means of getting the bonuses of Allah in this month. You may fancy reciting the dua of “yaa man arjuh” (یا من ارجوه) [http://www.duas.org/rajab3.htm] after every prayer. Interestingly, you can find some dua pieces issued from the site of Imam Mahdi (May Allah Advent His Great Return) as dua recommendations from our current Imam. Also, there are some short phrases that you can whisper while walking, biking, driving or on board. Fasting and visiting Imam Hussain (PBUH) by reciting Ziaarat Ashuraa has been highly recommended. For a list of a’maal in Rajab, you may visit: http://www.duas.org/rajab4.htm
And another important point, do not forget to pray for your brothers and sisters whole around the world, particularly, the Shia ones.
Let’s hope we will get enough of this month to prepare ourselves for the next step, Sha’baan.

* We have just passed the martyrdom anniversary of Imam Hassan Askari (PBUH) which means that the leadership of Imam Mahdi (may Allah hasten his advent) has just started its anniversary for 1172nd year. So, happy anniversary, and we will say our congratulations to him with reciting his own special salavaat. Also, in order to respect the martyrdom anniversary of Imam Hassan Askari (PBUH), his special salavaat will be recited. For a short history about Imam Hassan Askari (PBUH), you may find this link useful: http://zahrakarimi.blogfa.com/post-30.aspx. Further to that, 9th of Rabi’ al-Awwal is the anniversary of the earth-to-hell migration of the second usurper of the leadership of Imam Ali (PBUH) from . He and his companions falsely occupied the high position of Imam Ali (PBUH) that had already been appointed by the Messenger of Allah (PBUH&HF), and destroyed the stream that the Prophet had developed for directing human being for ever. Therefore, we will recite Dua Sanamy Quraysh – which is the dua that the Commander of the Believers (PBUH) used to recite in his qonut part of his prayers – to see the viewpoint of Ahl al-Bait to those usurpers.
** As there are some nice traditions about the topic of love and hate, which are worth mentioning, we will review them for this week, and will carry on discussion on Dua Nodbah by next week, God willing.
Please introduce the website to your friends studying or living in Liverpool. Thanks.
Hope to see you all again.
