Ramadan Mubarak

Salaam

Ramadan mubarak to you all!!! Ramadan is starting tomorrow here in U.S. and I have just finished watching the first night Taraweeh prayers in Masjid e Nabwi in Madeenah Munawwarah. I also watched a little bit from time to time in Makkah Al Mukkaramah to see who was leading.
In Masjid e Nabwi the first 10 Rakahs were led by Sheikh Hudhaify - Amazing recitation
Last 10 Rakas led by Sheikh Abdul Muhsin Al Qasim
In Makkah:
First 10 Rakahs led by Sheikh Mahir Al Muaiqiley - excellent
Second 10 Rakahs led by Sheikh Abdur Rahman As Sudais

I will provide the links later, In Sha Allah. I won't be uploading the videos because this blogger thing takes a long time to upload even the smallest videos.

Salaam.

Sheikh Hudhaify

Asaalamu Alaikum

Sheikh Hudhaify is an Imam and Khateeb of Masjid e Nabwi in Madeenah Munawwarah and was an Imam and Khateeb (I'm not so sure whether he was a khateeb or not) of Makkah Al Mukarramah. This is a beautiful audio recording of Surah Jumuah by him. I don't know much about it, but I'm pretty sure it's from Salaat or Taraweeh.

Dua By Sheikh Sudais in Pakistan

Assalamu Alaikum
This is another embedded thing. When Sheikh Abdur Rahman As Sudais went to Pakistan in July 2007, he did this Dua. It's a pretty nice Dua. When he gets up in front of all the people he smiles a little sheepishly. In the end he says "Bakistan Zindabaad!" a couple of times and everyone laughs and agrees. IGNORE THE "TO VIEW MY OTHER VIDZ, CLICK HERE" THING. THAT IS NOT ME. Assalaamu Alaikum.

Sheikh Abdur Rahman As Sudais

Salaamu Alaikum
I've started uploading recordings of Shuyookh beside Sheikh Shuraim.
This recording is from Salaatul Qiyam (taraweeh) in Ramadan year 1423/2002. It's from the beginning of Surah Yasin, and the reciter is Sheikh Abdur Rahman As Sudais. The recording is and audio, and there is a picture of the Sheikh in the London Muslim Center.
Thanks and salam.

Surah Furqan by Sheikh Saud Ash Shuraim, Ayahs 1-20 are from Masjid al Haram Taraweeh year 1412/1992 and Ayahs 21-77 are from 1420/1999. To go to the source, click here. NOTE: THIS SURAH HAS A SAJDAH IN IT IN THE 60th AYAH. IF YOU LISTEN THEN YOU WILL HAVE TO DO A SAJDAH.

Sheikh Shuraim Surah Muminun

Assalamu Alaikum
This is Surah Muminun by Sheikh Shuraim, and the first part is from Taraweeh 1415 and the second part, I don't really know. You can tell when his voice changes somewhere in the beginning half. If you know which year the second part is from, just leave a comment. Plenty of more videos will be coming soon In Sha Allah.

Sheikh Shuraim Surah Mulk

Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh

This is Surah Mulk from the second last (28th or 29th) night of taraweeh from the year 1426/2005. The Imam is Sheikh Saud Bin Ibraheem Ash Shuraim. In my opinion, it's the best video I've uploaded so far, so if you liked the other ones, you should DEFINITELY WATCH THIS ONE. Thank you.

Salaam.

Ending of Harry Potter VII My Version Chapter 1

Salaam

Note: This is a fic. A "fic" is a fictional story about some real novel/movie.

The Ending of Harry Potter VII

Voldy is trying to make Neville Longbottom, Ginny Weasley and other dudes to shutup.

Voldy: Silencio!

Note: It isn't working because spells somehow don't exist in my version of Harry Potter.

All: Didn't work. Again.

Voldy: Aw, whom am I kidding? I'm like the self-proclaimed best sorcerer in the world! I'll just kill 'em! Avada Ka-

Longbottom (even though spells don't work): Noooooo!!!!!!

Voldy (confused) : Huh?

Longbottom: Don't kill us! Please! I beg of you! If you kill us then you will have to bear with the guilt for the rest of your life which won't be very long (we all know that)-

Voldy: Hey!

Longbottom: But we could join your army if you didn't kill us....

Voldy: Keep talkin', keep talkin'.

Harry Potter: No, saaayyyyyyyyyyyy!

Translation: No!

Voldy: Whoah! "Avada Kevadra" is a Llamite-a-fying-spell now? MY WORST ENEMY IS A LLAMITE? I AM THE HAPPIEST MAN ON EARTH! NO, THAT'S NOT ENOUGH. I AM THE HAPPIEST MAN IN THE UNIVERSE!!!

Note: A Llamite is someone who goes to Llama International School.

Harry Potter: Aivvvoooooooooootilllllllayyyyyy?

Translation: What?

Longbottom: Harry! Speak English again! Please!

Harry Potter: Ay-I-yammm-espikking-ennnglisha-onlay! Shutttttupillay! Plesssssssss!

Translation: I am speaking English. Shutup. Please.

All:

Harry Potter: Ai-vottt-eez-theeeeeeess? "..."? estuppppppidnissonlay!

Translation: What's this "..."? Stupidity!

Sephiroth: The Darkness! It has pulled me into this world..... Actually, I flew here-

Cloud: Yo Sephiroth! Weren't we in the middle of a fight? A legendary fight?

Sephiroth: Oh yeah! *they start fighting*

Voldy: That was incredibly disturbing...

Harry Potter: More idistarbinga thannna I vessiz Jack Bauer?

Translation: More disturbing than me vs. Jack Bauer?

Voldy: That is incredibly disturbing.

*silence*

Voldy: WHOAH!!!! IF JACK BAUER CAN BEAT YOU UP THEN I COULD HIRE HIM TO -DO JUST THAT!!! Hang on, I'll call him up...*takes out cell-phone*

Cloud: *fighting stops* WHOAH!!!! IS THAT THE IPHONE? I WANT ONE! WHERE'D YOU GET IT FROM? FOR HOW MUCH? TELL ME, MAN! MY LIFE DEPENDS ON THIS!!!

Voldy: Yeah----okay----be here fast---------yeah--bye *hangs up*.

Jack Bauer drives up in a blue 'shining-to-the-last-spot' sedan.

Sephiroth: WHOAH!!!! IS THAT THE 2009 NISSAN ALTIMA? I WANT ONE! WHERE'D YOU GET IT FROM? FOR HOW MUCH? TELL ME, MAN! MY LIFE DEPENDS ON THIS!!!

Jack Bauer: PUT YOUR HANDS ON YOUR HEAD! GET ON YOUR KNEES! NOW!

Harry Potter: Ay-vvooooooooooooottttttttillayyyyyyy?

Translation: What?

Jack Bauer: YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO SHUTUP AND THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT AND THE RIGHT
NOT TO TALK AND THE RIGHT TO OBEY ME AND THE ....

Cloud: Uh, Sephiroth? Am I the only one who thinks we should get back to our fight?

All: NO!!!

Cloud: Good. *starts fighting with Sephiroth again*

Harry Potter (who is now under arrest and somehow un-Llamite-afied): At least I get to ride the '09 Altima...

Sephiroth: *stops fighting* WHOAH!!! THANKS FOR REMINDING ME!! I WAS TOO BUSY FIGHTING THIS BABOON!!! HOW MUCH DOES IT COST??!!! WHAT ARE THE FEATURES??!! WHAT'S THE MPG??!!! TELL ME!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!

Jack Bauer: Go to Yahoo Autos, kid.

Cloud: WHOAH!!! SEPHIROTH'S CRAZE FOR THE '09 ALTIMA HAS REMINDED ME OF MY CRAZE FOR THE IPHONE!!! THE PRICE!!! THE COOL NEW GADGETS!!! IT'S ALL OVERWHELMING!!! AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Note: I really really really REALLY apologize for all the Caps lock, but the characters in this fic are very emotional. Thank you.

Voldy: Get your own stinky info on your own stinky iPhone you stinky little-

Cloud: NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! MY LIFE IS RUINED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sephiroth: Let's get on with the fight. At least it'll take your mind off the iPhone.

Voldy: Wait a second! If I don't see any castle-like school, no forest, no lake, and no stadium, then we're definitely not at Hoggywarts, so then, where are we?

Longbottom: It's a secret!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Voldy: TELL ME!!!!!!!!!! RIGHT NOW!!!!!! YOU'LL REGRET THIS!!!!!!!!!!!! I'LL LLAMITE-AFY YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!! AVADA-

They are cut off by a Tarzan yell from somewhere in the sky and Darth Vader comes flying out of nowhere.

Tarzan: HEY!!!!!! THAT'S MY YELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Darth Vader: NO!!!!!!!!!! I AM THE ULTIMATE VILLAIN!!!!!!!!! NO ONE BEATS ME!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOT EVEN VOLDYY!!!!!!!!!!!! AYYYYYYYYYOOOOOOAYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!

Just as he is inches away from slashing good ol' Voldy with his Lightsaber, GUESS WHAT HAPPENS. YOU'LL NEVER GUESS. THIS CHAPTER ACTUALLY COMES TO AN END!!!!

Will Cloud ever get the iPhone? Will Sephiroth ever get the Altima? Will Voldy ever figure out where he is? Will Neville Longbottom get Llamite-afied? Will Voldy get Lightsaberslash-afied? Is Darth Vader really the Ultimate Villian? Will Tarzan get his yell back? Will Harry Potter escape Jack Bauer? Am I asking too many questions? YOU HAVE TO WAIT TILL THE NEXT CHAPTER!!!! HAHA!!!!!!!!!!
