Preparations for Eid Milad un Nabi*?

[Sister Nomee]

Assalamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu

ASALATU WASALAMU ALAYKA YA RASULLALLAH Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam

As the month of Rabi ul Awwal and Eid Milad un Nabi Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam are approaching us real fast and its a very important Event in the Islamic Calender for us Ashq e Rasool's Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam. No doubt this event should be celebrated in the best possible manner according to Islamic Shariah.

What preparations/organising (such as booking time off from work, making or buying new outfits, decorating the home or arranging a date to hold Milad mehfil at home) will you be making in order to celebrate Milad shareef ?

As Owais Qadri would say Mein Jashn-e-Aamad-e-Sarkar

JazakAllah and do share your plans with us all.

Mashallah! Well where can I start, I have loads planned, lots to do...places to go, people to meet Inshallah...so Im busy throughout the month, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala Khair Kare!

Well here, lots of my Sweet Sisters in Islam hold Mehfil e Milaad Shareef in their homes, so I'll be attending those daily, and their are loads of Sisters Alhamdulillah, so thats the days gone, night time Im wanting that time to me.. to do all my Ibaadat and stuff,and anytime inbetween there I'll be fitting my Islam786 family in, Inshallah Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala Khair Kare!

as for the decorations, I was going to put them up ages ago, in my Mega excitement...but I was told to wait...so Inshallah soon as the moon is sighted...you all know what I'll be doing!

Also my aim is to finish a Quraan Shareef in the blessed month, also to read lots of Naat Shareefs, and Darood e Paak, Inshallah Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala Khair Kare!

and the biggest thing of all I have never done these before so please do pray that this does go well for me Inshallah, I have prepared a speech in Urdu (learnt by heart...from Sajid ul Hashemi's book..Seerat e Mustafa Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam) on the blessed name of Hazoor e Paak Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam) really excited about that (never done a speech before...epsecially in Urdu

make Duas please

I can write loads more on what Ive got planned...Inshallah I will give someone else the oppurtunity to write now

Good stuff sister Hajjan you can save all the writing for the Milad 2009 Diaries that I have planned for you all!

I got my first Milad present ( a black jilbaab) courtesy of my youngest sister in law today so got me in the spirit of milad hence the birth of this thread.

I plan to switch my fairy lights on next week after the sighting of the moon for Rabi ul Awwal, have had special flags sent over from Pakistan which will also go on in my living room.

My milad mehfil for the women at my house has been arranged for the 15th March, the mens mehfil together with having the Blessed Mueh Mubarak at my house has yet to be sorted out with my nephews cant wait!!

I have booked half a day off work, I have sorted out 5/6 new outfits which were gifts from my family in Pakistan

Other than just cant wait for this great month to fall upon us and shower its endless blessings upon all of us inshAllah.

Next please................

I hope it works, if not then you'll have to get another similar program which may be better with more tools to make more beautiful cards

good thread! nice too read about what our members are doing for the blessed month.

well i already have a new jubba as i got sooo many when i finished hafiz so i never got too wear all of them and my mum said save them for a special occasion

we have never decorated the house before but you people have inspired me so i am going too ask beloved mother and see what they say.

i have tried with this blessed month around the corner to tie my imamah shareef, its obvious from the end result something goes terrible wrong (no laughing sister hajjan and sister fatma)

lastly gonna try and get some new nalain shareef badges. i like the old ones. there the new modern ones that are ok but not as good as the other ones...the shiny ones

little things but there you go.

jazakallah

Wa'alaykum 'Assalam wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu

[fatma]

Assalamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu

Mashallah some good entries which are quite inspiring.

i have new clothes and the boys have a pair of jubba's that they've only worn once so they'll be wearing those. hubby should be wearing a clean salwar kameez like he does every year.

my hubby has also booked the day off work so that should make life a little easier.

Inshallah will call the family over for fatiha (which means food!!! ;D )

will see if i can get the kiddies pressies as am not feeling great at the moment so who knows!

hmm.. this would be my first time celebrating Milad un Nabi Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam.. I think we did celebrate it in pakistan.. but not here... last year all I did was listun to the naat and to the speech given by Ameer-e-Ahlesunnat...

..This year I think I would do all what you are suppose to do on eid.. new cloths.. mehndi etc... will try to follow all the sunnah's ..InshaAllah

I'll (try to) cook the favorite food of Rasool Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam.. sareed.. for that I'll just make cholei.. and then turn it into sareed.. its also my favorite.. ;D
..will make kadoo ka halwa.. ( asuming that pumpkin is same as sweet-kado..?? )
have to look up the favorite food list.. dont remmber them all..


.. will listen to alot of naats/poems..
