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.

7 Remarkable Things About Khadija, Wife of the Prophet Muhammed SAS

By Yasmina Blackburn I often get into debates with people about women in Islam. How we dress. How we don’t dress. What we think or don’t think or should-be-thinking. I get into debates about feminism. What it is and what it isn’t. I think I’ve spawned permanent foes because I don’t care to apply the label, feminist, to describe myself. (I’m not one for labels, sorry. But if it’s even required of me, “Muslim woman” suits me just fine.) But if we could agree for a moment that there exists a pure definition of the word feminist to mean: awesomely fierce to the millionth degree, then I’d like to introduce you to Islam’s first feminist. Her name is Khadijah bint Khuwaylid. She was the wife of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him.) And she is one of the people that I think about when I face or debate issues surrounding women today. Khadija’s existence precedes mine by more than 1,400 years; and, if I can at the very least, continuously strive to emulate her char...

Can I shorten my prayers A nswer: If your workplace is [approximately] 80km or more from your city boundary, you should shorten your prayers whilst there. Normally, we are expected to shorten our prayers when the shari‘a says that we are travelling; hence, if you have to travel just to get to work, you would shorten your prayers.

I Felt As 60 Pound Weight Had Been Lifted Off My Shoulders

By Aisha Kacie Salaam! My name is Aisha and I am a Muslim revert. I reverted in 2015, but I had been researching Islam for about 2 years before reverting. Growing up I was put under the label Christian, though it was never practiced in my home. I met my best friend in college 6-7 years ago and she was Muslim. I later met a few other Muslims but still never thought much about Islam. Having moved to a big city from a small town, I actually did not know what Islam was! So I guess because of that, I came into it without any bias. I began having questions about fasting, and modest dress, etc and that began my 2 year journey into researching Islam. I researched (literally) everyday. Then one day I decided to listen to one of the 5 daily prayers out of curiosity. As soon as the Arabic played I felt as though a 60 pound weight had been lifted off my shoulders. I was so overwhelmed as though I had just found what was written for me my entire life without even knowing it! ...
