IPL 2018: Rashid Khan says ‘NO’ to champagne post SRH’s victory celebration
NEW DELHI: A video of Rashid Khan refuses to have Champagne post SunRisers Hyderabad’s victory over KKR in IPL 2018 qualifier is gaining many hearts all over the world.
In the video, the sensational player from Afghanistan, who was named Man of The Match for his destructive performance against Kolkata Knight Riders on Friday can be seen celebrating the win at the hotel with his teammates.
After chopping the cake with a congratulatory message written on it, an SRH member offered him champagne, which the 19-year old leggie flatly refuses to touch. As per Islam, alcohol is forbidden and Rashid being a Muslim obliged to it and is not allowed promote or endorse alcohol brand.
Here’s the video:

His simplicity and his gestures have won hearts and gained tremendous respect from the fans across the globe.
This is not the first time when a cricketer has refused to have alcohol during the celebrations after the victory. The likes of Moeen Ali, Hashim Amla and even England spinner Adil Rashid have never promote or endorse alcohol brand and they also stay away from the team during the celebrations.

Rashid did everything against KKR to carry his side to victory. He hammered 34 runs in 10 balls and defeated Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the Qualifier 2 of Indian Premier League 2018 (IPL 2018).
After watching Rashid Khan mesmerise the KKR, not only his team SRH but everyone will be looking at him to take the final to greater heights. He is the IPL star of this season.
At the IPL auction, Rashid was snapped up by SRH for Rs 4 crores ($597,000) and they now find every rupee and cent they spent on him is well worth it. He is so unassuming that he does his work quietly without attracting undue attention. His twirling finger is all that he enjoys after taking a wicket.

Stretching Feet Facing the Kabah: Allowed?

Q uestions: As-salamu `alaykum. Is it wrong to sit or sleep with your feet facing the east or facing the Kabah A nswer: In his response to your question, Sheikh Ahmad Kutty, a senior lecturer and Islamic scholar at the Islamic Institute of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, states: If a person is sitting stretching his feet towards the direction of the Kabah with the specific intention of showing disrespect, then that is definitely considered a blasphemous act and a grave sin, for at all times we are ordered to respect the symbols of Allah. The Kabah, being the House of Allah, is worthy of utmost reverence. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “O Allah! Enhance the honor, status and awe of this House in the minds of those who visit or go around it.” Allah says, “Whosoever respects the symbols of Allah, he does so only by virtue of the piety embedded in their hearts.”(Al-Hajj 22:32) Having said this, however, I should further state: If a person does no...

Why do Dogs start Barking (Howling) at the time of Azan ?

Q uestions: Why do dogs cry at the time of Fajr Azan? This is an incident that I’ve noticed very often. A nswer: Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds; and may His blessings and peace be upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon all his Family and Companions. There are many wonders of Allah in His Creation. Dogs are among His Creatures. It is confirmed in a Hadith that dogs see what human beings cannot see. Abu Dawud reported in his Sunan that Jabir Ibn Abdullah narrated that the Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam) said:” If you hear the barking of dogs and the braying of donkeys by night, seek refuge in Allah, as they see what you cannot see”. Albani and others classified this Hadith as authentic. In Sahih Al Jamie’, following the above Hadith is stated: ..’And reduce going out when it is quiet( when everybody is indoors at night time) as Allah diffuses by night what He wishes among His Creation, and lock your doors and mention the Name of Allah on them as ...
