 Assalamu Alaykum wa RahmatuAllahi wa Barakatuh.

 

 

 

 

Ingredienser:

Fuldkorns sandwich toast
2 kyllingebryst filet
Halal kalkun bacon (kan købes i Jacobs fullhouse)
Tomater
Iceberg salat
Karrydressing

Kartoflerne:
Kartofler
Oregano
2 fed hvidløg
All around krydderi

Chili-mayo:

Sriarcha chilisauce
Mayo
Lidt Soya
Lidt citron

 

Sandwichen:

1. Start med at grille kyllingefileterne på en grillpande med lidt gurkemeje, de 7 krydderier og all around chili blanding (skær dem gerne op i tynde 'lag')

2. Steg dine bacon, så de bliver crispy og lad dem dryppe af.

3. Forbered tomaterne ved, at skære dem i skiver og vask salaten grundigt og lad det dryppe lidt af.

4. Grill herefter toast brødet. Jeg brugte 3 stks.

5. Sandwichen skal hermed 'bygges'.
- Kom karrydressing på det grillet toast. Kyllingebryst. Bacon. Tomater. Salat. Endnu et toast brød smurt med karry dressingen og fyldet, og sådan bliver man ved indtil man er tilfreds med sin sandwich.

Kartoflerne:
1. Skær kartoflerne i både

2. Marinere dem med lidt oliven olie, oregano, hvidløg og all around krydderi i ca en halv times tid.

3. Tænd ovnen og sæt den på 180C (det meget forskelligt fra ovn til ovn) og stil kartoflerne i ovnen indtil de dejlige crispy med en masse smag.

Chili-Mayo:
Bland alle ingredienserne sammen og stil på køl i 10 minutter. Hvor stærk man vil have den, afhænger af hvor meget sriarcha chilisauce man er til, så smag til undervejs og start ud med en tsk.

Wa'Salam.


Crepes med fyld.

بِسْــــــــــــــــــمِ اﷲِالرَّحْمَنِ اارَّحِيم 

 

 Assalamu Alaykum wa RahmatuAllahi wa Barakatuh. 

 

De bedste crepes jeg har lavet. De smager himmelsk! Tynde og lette. Alhamduli Allah.

 

 

 

Ingredienser:

5 dl mælk
250g mel
3-4 æg
½ tsk salt
1 spsk sukker
Smør (til at komme på panden)

 

1. Bland mel, salt og sukker i en skål.

 

2. Rør mælken i mel blandingen lidt ad gangen til en klumpfri dej.

 

3. Rør æggene i et ad gangen.

 

Når det hele er blandet sammen, så stilles dejen på køl (tildækket) i 30 minutter.

 

Smelt lidt smør på en pandekage pande. Hæld lidt dej på panden og vip den lidt, så dejen fordeler sig godt på panden.

Vend pandekagen om, når den er blevet lysebrun og læg dem på en tallerken dækket til med sølvpapir.

Jeg har brugt: Banan, jordbær og nutella som fyld, men der kan tilføjes lige det man har lyst til.

 

 

 

Wa'Salam.

 Assalamu Alaykum wa RahmatuAllahi wa Barakatuh. 

 

 

 

 

Hvem elsker ikke en dejlig butter chicken kendt fra det indiske køkken? Mmmmh.
Jeg vil hermed dele min opskrift på denne dejlige ret.

 

 

Kyllingemarinaden:
1,5 dl naturel yoghurt
400g tomater i dåse
1 spsk. finthakket hvidløg (svarer til ca. 3 store fed)
1 spsk. finthakket ingefær
½/1 spsk. salt (alt efter behov)
3 spsk. tandoori masala
½ spsk. garam masala
½ spsk. chili pulver
knivspids kanel (KUN en knivspids!)
Ingredienser:
1 kg kyllingebryst
75g smør
1 spsk. olie
2 løg (gerne mellemstore)
2 grønne chilier (hakkes i fine stykker)
3 spsk. finthakket koriander
1/2L piskefløde

 

1. I en skål tilsættes naturel yoghurten, hvor de resterende ingredienser til marinaden tilsættes og blendes grundigt med en stavblender.

2. Tilsæt kyllingestykkerne og rør det hele godt sammen og sæt det til side.

3. Varm gryden op med smørret og olien.

4. Tilsæt de hakket løg nede i gryden og lad dem stege til de bliver lysebrune.

5. Tilføj nu finthakket chili og blandt det godt i gryden med løgene og lad dem stege i ca. 1 minuts tid.

6. Kom nu kyllingemarinaden i gryden og her skal der altså røres godt i ca. 20 minutter.

7. Når kyllingen er gennemstegt, så kommer man fløden i og rør i 5 minutters tid, så det hele blandes grundigt sammen og får en god smag.

Mmmh, og så er den faktisk færdig! :)
Pynt med koriander og servere det med enten ris eller naan brød.

Wa'Salam.

 



A Muslimah's lifestyle: Always a Student - How to organize you're Qur'an memorisation

بِسْــــــــــــــــــمِ اﷲِالرَّحْمَنِ اارَّحِيم 

 

Assalamu Alaykum wa RahmatuAllahi wa Barakatuh. 

 

 

Something I love and really find enjoyable has to be reading. I'm trying my best not to read 100 books at the same time and overmix them, that's too confusing and makes me forget what I was reading. You recognize that feeling, right? I most of the time like my things organized, so I've decided to take notes of everything - Especially the Qur'an. No matter how many times you read the Qur'an, you'll always end up finding something new - Subhan Allah, beautiful isn't it? Then what's better than taking notes.

 

I started to make my own personal Qur'an memorisation notebook to cross-check my own progess and to be better to study, understand and memorize the Qur'an In Sha Allah. There's so many techniques, you just have to find out what's best for you.

Therefore, I want to share my simple technique with you and hopefully it helps and motivates you to do the same as much as it motivates me. This is such an productive ressource and I'm so happy that I made it. Alhamduli Allah. It get's so much easier to study each surah.
 

 

Tools you need for the memorisation checklist:

A couple of notebooks (mine has colored tabs, which makes a difference in organizing ayat etc.)

A pen

A ruler

Stickers in different colors (I used dots)

 

I've used the sides of the blank side in the notebook to make the checklist. Start by marking some tables with your ruler for the Surat, the numbers and small colons for the 'Studies, Memorised and Tafsir Translation'.

And when you're done with that, you can start filling the checklist and you're notebook. Pretty simple, huh? =) I actually just took a break from writing in my notebook (to let you guys know about this checklist) and In Sha Allah I can fill out my checklist later on - and you can difinitely do the same. Very enjoyable and organized Ma Sha Allah :) Btw, I recommend you to start with you're notebook before you start filling you're checklist. Write down everything you have studied, translated and knows etc. about a specific surah and then fill out you're checklist, but set a seperate time for each thing In Sha Allah. You're notebook has to be filled up with ilm too ♥

The pink dots is for my 'studied surah', the green ones is for 'Memorized' and the orange ones is for my 'Tafsir Translation'. 

I have a long way to go and i'm looking forward to it, and In Sha Allah we can reach our goals to memorize the whole Qur'an.

 

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Abd-Allaah ibn Masood said: The Messenger of Allaah sallAllaahu Alayhi wa Sallam said: “Whoever reads a letter of the Book of Allaah will be credited with a good deed, and a good deed gets a tenfold reward. I do not say that Alif-Laam-Meem is a letter, rather alif is a letter, laam is a letter and meem is a letter.”

Imagine the hasanaat you get for only reciting 3 letters. Subhan Allah - Imagine the reward for Surat Al Baqarah. How can this not motivate us to become better? Start today before going to sleep and after Salatul Fajr In Sha Allah. Be consistent. Read every single day and get you're studies checked by a teacher, of course a qualified one In Sha Allah. Prepare yourself for Ramadan and standing in front of Allah Subhana wa T'Ala. Let us attach our hearts to the Qur'an, the memorisations, translations, tajweed etc. and don't give up. Rememeber, practicing is our greatest tool. =)

And until next time In Sha Allah, I will try and share my organizing tools and techniques with all of you so it maybe might become easier and more helpful to practise you're Deen daily, at least more organized and just use you're creativity =) . I will post some examples when I have some time In Sha Allah.
I will make Duaa that this checklist helps you In Sha Allah - I need you're Duaas too, let us please remember each other in our Salah and have a clean heart.
Take care In Sha Allah ♥

Wa'Salam.

DIY SADAQAH JAR

بِسْــــــــــــــــــمِ اﷲِالرَّحْمَنِ اارَّحِيم 

 

Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh. 

 

This Sadaqah jar is so simple to make. You can make it exactly the way you like it or just really out of any craft supplies you have around in the house. Let the children make their own special jar to their own desire. It would be so helpful and a great start for the kids to know about charity and the importance of giving to others. Yes, even if they’re 3 years! They have to start early and appreciate the blessings Allah Subhana wa T’Ala blessed them with in their lives and they can only do that by learning. We must remember that all kids learn differently then we do so at times we just have to get down to their levels. And please, stop making excuses about the ‘young’ age of the child. Just get down to their levels and you’ll see a wonderful change In Sha Allah.
You can also make a family jar and involve everyone in it. It will probably be used even more by then with the intention in the right place In Sha Allah.
We live in a world where pennies get used as a floor and decor? Like it has no value or something. And yup – I’ve seen that on pinterest and Google before! Subhan Allah – what kind of hayat is that? Is it even a life? It’s so heartbreaking.
Those pennies can save a life! Please, show and teach your children that e-v-e-r-y little effort can make a huge difference.

Materials needed;

•  A jar. (Which I used but you can basically use anything; A bottle, an old tin, box etc.)
• Stickers or anything that's available in your house. Like paint or any wrap paper.
• Labels or markers.

I used the jar on the left, but this is just to show you what I did from the bottom.

The stickers I used. Too girly maybe? No problem. You go and choose your favorite color. You can get the stickers in every craft store for cheap money. 

 

How cute are these stickers? Anyway, that's what I chose.

 

Let the decorating begin.

 

You have to make sure to let people know what the jar is for.

 

This is the final result with a label on the side which says 'Allah loves the giver'. You can do it however you like it. I just like it very simple and clean. Just remember there's absolutely no limits for the kids. Let them have fun and be creative In Sha Allah.

''Have you seen him who denies Our religion? It is he who harshly repels the orphan and does not urge others to feed the needy. Woe to those who pray but are heedless of their prayers; who put on a show of piety but refuse to give even the smallest help to others.'' (Surat Al-Ma'un: 1-7)

The Prophet (Sal'Allahu alaihi Wa'Sallam) said: "There is not a day in which the obedient slaves rise in the morning except that two angels descend, and one of them says: 'O Allaah! Compensate the one who spends.' The other angel says: 'O Allaah! Destroy the wealth of the one who is niggardly."

[Al-Bukhaari and Muslim)

 

Be a giver and you'll be gifted In Sha Allah. Gifted with a great reward from Allah Subhana wa T'Ala.

May Allah, The Most High and Generous, always give us the opportunity and means to help the needy, poor and ill. And may He accept it from us. Ameen.

A taste of His Creation ♥ (Pomegranates/rumman)

بِسْــــــــــــــــــمِ اﷲِالرَّحْمَنِ اارَّحِيم 

 

Assalamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh. 

 

 

 

 

Firstly, Glory be to Allah! ♥

Have you ever felt so fascinated by the fruits and just wanted to investigate further about it? The meat, the grains, colors, structures and the soft/harded 'shield' which I only see as a form of protection for the fruit itself. Fascinating! Subhan Allah. There's absolutely something so beautiful and unique about these fruits. All kind of fruits. Yes, the fruits Allah Subhana wa T'Ala created. This time it's about the incredible, juicy and delicious pomegranate Ma Sha Allah. 

Pomegranates are mentioned in the Qur'an Al Kareem couple of times. I decided to base it on this Ayah In Sha Allah, where Allah Subhana wa T'Ala describes His beautiful bounties and amazing creation which He has poured on us in this world.

 

The Almighty Says:

“He it is Who sendeth down water from the sky, and therewith We bring forth buds of every kind; We bring forth the green blade from which we bring forth the thick clustered grain; and from the date palm, from the pollen thereof, spring pendant bunches; and (We bring forth) gardens of grapes, and the olive and the pomegranate, alike and unlike. Look upon the fruit thereof, when they bear fruit, and upon its ripening. Lo! herein verily are portents for a people who believe.” (Surat Al-An'am: 99)

 

___________________________________________________________________________

 

 

So basically, Allah Subhana wa T'Ala indicates a difference between the believers and non-believers in this Ayah, which means that as a believer we have to take lessons and bounties of these signs, which in the end will raise us in Iman In Sha Allah. We shouldn't just pass by the creation of Allah Subhana wa T'Ala. It's much deeper than that. We have to ponder over the beautiful creation as well, as a result increasing our love and conviction for The Almighty. We have to see through the eyes of our hearts and not only through the eyes of our face. That's a true believer.

 

 

 

 

 Does anyone know the story of Abdullah Ibn Al Mubarak and the garden of pomegranates? I just had to include this one since it has something to do with pomegranates (obviously).

Al Mubarak, the father of one the scholars was once a slave. His master freed him and he worked in a garden taking care of a garden of pomegranates for many years. The owner of the garden asked for a bowl of pomegranates. The owner said these pomegranates are very sour, bring me some sweet pomegranates. The gardener said but I don’t taste the pomegranates so I don’t know which ones are sweet or which ones are sour. The owner was surprised that the gardener did not taste the pomegranates and asked the gardener how many years he has worked for him in the garden. He told the master all these years that he has worked for the master he never tasted the pomegranates because it is haram for him. The master thought that as very noble of him. He asked the neighbours about this man who all said he was very honest.

The owner of the garden later called the gardener to ask him for some advice. The master asked him “I have a daughter, how can I choose the right husband for my daughter?” The gardener said some people choose wealth, some beauty etc. but in Islam Prophet Muhammad Sal'Allahu Alaihi wa Sallam advised us to choose someone for their religion, so choose someone who is righteous. The master said to the gardener that “I could not find anyone more pious than you”. The gardener, a servant accepted the proposal of marriage. This man left eating from a garden full of pomegranates and Allah Subhana wa T'Ala gave him the daughter of the owner of the garden. Alhamduli Allah. And their son was to become a pious scholar.

Subhan Allah. Amazing, isn't it? This story is actually more about honesty, but I can't help myself and think about the beautiful garden of pomegranates. If His creation is so beautiful, how Beautiful is He? The Beauty of The Creator is indeed apparent in His Creation Subhan Allah. Pomegranates are so fascinating. I love me some rumman at any time! Not only because it's tastes so wonderful and has lots of health benefits but truly because it's one of Jannahs fruits too. We should enjoy this Ni'mah from Allah Subhana wa T'Ala more often, since He bestowed upon us His bounties in this dunya. RasulAllah Sal'Allahu Alaihi wa Sallam said: “There is not a pomegranate which does not have a pip from one of the pomegranates of the Garden (of Jannah) in it." - Can anyone imagine how delicious pomegranates are in Jannah? May we be able to taste the sweetness of His Creation in the hereafter In Sha Allah. Surely, it is Jannah that we want which is everlasting. Let's strive to seek it and please our Creator. The Only Creator of the heavens and of the earth, and all between. The Creator of beauty in this world and Jannah. Ameen.

 

I almost forgot to mentend this lovely book I have on the picture. I really, I mean really recommend this book 'Healing with the medicine of the Prophet (Sal'Allahu Alaihi wa Sallam). It's such a great book! Searching for good health? And want to do it the Sunnah way? Please, get yourself this book In Sha Allah. You can read about the health benefits, cures etc. of pomegranates and almost everything else from our beloved Propthet Sal'Allahu Alaihi wa Sallam's time. There's two copies of it actually. The one I have is the old version, but basically they're the same. The new one just contains lots of pictures. (This one doesn't). Get it from here In Sha Allah: Medicine of the Prophet

Narrated Anas bin Malik: RasulAllah Sal'Allahu Alaihi wa Sallam said, "There is none amongst the Muslims who plants a tree or sows seeds, and then a bird, or a person or an animal eats from it, but is regarded as a charitable gift for him." (Bukhari)

 

All good herein is from Allah, and there's no shortcomings but for my own.
Wa'Salam.
