acting evasively in the matters of paying Zakah; the people who deserve Zakah have hard time; the mother beneath whose feet lies Paradise is badly treated. What has happened to Muslims? Now when will our Masajid be filled with Salah-offering people? Which day will the number of Salah-offering people increase? How long shall we be lazy in paying Zakah? How long will it continue like this?

Dear Islamic Sisters! Different miracles, from time to time, continued to occur from Sayyiduna ‘Isa Ruhullah عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام, but there were some miracles which became very famous. Let’s listen to some details of those miracles.

Sayyiduna Wahb Bin Munabbih رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ said that a large number of patients used to come to Sayyiduna ‘Isa عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام; those who could walk, would come to him and those who could
