Blessed

Alhamdulillah I am reading again (thank God nothing tempting happened on the iPad..)

There are maybe 5 books I am reading now (all for different objectives) - I think that is about the max I have read concurrently so far. But mostly they are thin ones; with one big book called The Sword of Allah (a history of Khalid al Waleed) - which I find very informative and like so far. 

I found something called Ashrat-ul-Mubashira which literally translates to "the ten who have been given the good news". Before the death of these men they were told by Rasulullah saw they would enter paradise. The writer had translated this to the Blessed Ten. I had written about this before; but this has always been an amazing list for me. So I put it here again ~

1. Ali
2. Abu Bakr
3. Uthman Affan
4. Zubair bin Al Awwam
5. Abdur-Rahman bin Auf
6. Sad ni Abi Waqqas
7. Talha bin Ubaidullah
8. Abu Ubaidah Al Jarrah
9. Saeed bin Zaid
10. Umar
*****
