Al-Imam Al-Hafidh Jalaluddeen As-Suyuti RA, one of the greatest scholars of Islam says in Al-Hawi Lil Fatawa: “To commemorate the Mawlid, which is basically gathering people together, reciting parts of the Qu'ran, narrating stories about the Prophet's birth and the signs that accompanied it, then serving food, and afterwards, departing, is one of the good innovations; and the one who practices it gets rewarded, because it involves venerating the status of the Prophet and expressing joy at his honourable birth.”
The point of departure for Habibia's future vision is to continue with the Islamic foundation, principles and practice as laid down by the Quran and Sunnah as practiced in the tradition of the founding fathers of the Habibia Soofie Musjid, namely, Hazrat Soofie Saheb and Hazrat Moulana Abdul Latief Qazi.
Amidst the aromatic fragrances tantalizing the olfactory senses, the eyes tearing from the stinging vapors emanating from the onions, we hear the chatter and excitement brewing in the kitchen. MMMM... all in preparation for the hundred years celebration of an institution that has served the needs of a community in more ways than one. A service that has excellently been maintained by every sector of the Muslim community, especially the WOMEN of Habibia.
In 1905 Albert Einstein wrote three groundbreaking papers in science, including one on his famous theory of relativity. This theory initiated a scientific revolution that challenged atheistic trends in science and provided Western humanity, in particular, with a newer and humbler way of looking at the universe. In South Africa, the Anglo-Boer war had just come to an end but the colonization or repression of non-Europeans was a shared characteristic of both British and Afrikaner. Non-Europeans still suffered the yoke of oppression, even if the degree of brutality varied. But brutality it still was.
