BEEMAPALLI DARGAH SHAREEF

Beemapally Dargah Shareef is one among the ancient places of worship for Muslims in Kerala. This Dargah is located between Valiyathura Junction and Poonthura Junction at Thiruvananthapuram. It is known as home to the tomb of Syedunnisa Beema Beevi, a Muslim woman with divine powers, and her son Syedu Shuhada Maheen Abubacker.

It is dedicated to Beema Umma who was a family member of Prophet Mohammed and believed to have great spiritual powers. It is said that both the Beema Umma and her son, Sayyid Shuhada Maheen Aboobaker came to Kerala from Arabia in order to preach Islam.

There are two wells at Beemapalli out of which one contains cold water and the other hot water. It is believed that the water in these wells has medicinal properties and effective to cure many diseases. Even during the extreme drought, the water in these wells does not dry.

Legand has it that Cheraman Perumal went on a pilgrimage to Arabia where he met Prophet Mohammed at Jeddah. He converted to Islam and his name was changed to Thajuddin. He married the sister of the then King of Jeddah and settled down in Arabia. Before he died, he handed over many letters to the king of Jeddah; these missives were addressed to several rulers of Kerala seeking their support in spreading the tenets of Islam in Kerala.

After Thajuddin’s death, the King of Jeddah travelled to Kerala and met the Rajah of Kodungalloor who helped him to alter the Arathali Temple into a Juma Masjid. This mosque was designed and built by Hindus based on their art and architecture. The graves of three renowned disciples are located next to Beemapally mosque, which is the first in India and the second in the world where the Juma prayers were started.

Chandanakudam Mahotsavam or Uroos: The famous annual Urus Chandanakkudam festival at Beemappalli is held in memory of Beema Umma and her son Sayyidussaheed Maheen Aboobaker. The celebration of this annual festival starts on the first of Jama dul Akbar and continue for 10 days. Huge crowd of devotees visits this holy place during the uroos festival from all the cities to offer prayers.

ABOUT HAJJ

IHajj is one of the pillars of our faith. Hajj is the pilgrimage to the Holy land of Makkah. It is enjoined on a Muslim to go at least once in his life if one has the means. This means you would need to commit financially, physically and spiritually and also be of sound mind. This post would help you figure out where to start in preparing for Hajj and even some resources. The pilgrimage takes place in the last month of Islamic calendar Dhul-Hijjah and the rites are performed between the 8th and 12th days of the month. As it follows the lunar calendar, the dates change every year. The rites of Hajj date back to the Prophet Ibrahim (A.S). And while performing hajj, one would walk the path the blessed Prophet Muhammad ﷺ walked. Hajj is a total transformational experience. SubhanAllah! it is truly the journey of a lifetime. You become washed of your sins and have a renewed faith. It goes beyond the rites of pilgrimage too. You find that you learn so much about yourself. Should you be ble

MY HEART CRAVES FOR YOU, O MADINAH!..

I just want to be there. Always and forever.. In the comfort of the city of my beloved Salallahu alayhi wa sallam.. In the serenity of Taiba… O the one who receives an invitation to Madinah, You are more fortunate than anyone in this world… Every day in Madinah is blessed… Every breath you take in Madinah is blessed… Every blink of an eye in Madinah is blessed… Every gaze on the Blessed Green Dome is from the fortunes of Paradise… O the one who receives an invitation to Madinah, blessed are you, so envious I am of you… Every Salaam you say, every greeting you greet with, every word you utter is more blessed than my existence in any other place… اللهم كما رزقتنا سكني المدينة، فلا تحرمنا حسن الخاتمة فيها، والدفن في بقيتها، اللهم لا تبعدنا عن المدينة احياء و امواتا.. آمين O Allah, like how You have sustained us with staying in Madinah, then do not deprive us of a good end in it and being buried in its Baqi, O Allah, do not make us far from Madinah while we alive or while we are d

Zam Zam Well

Allah (the Glorified and Exalted) created the well to provide Hajira, the wife of Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) (peace be upon him), and her baby Prophet Ismail (Ishmael) (peace be upon him) with water in the hot and dry valley they were in. In her desperate search for water, Hajira ran seven times back and forth in the scorching heat between the two hills of Safa and Marwa to provide for her baby who was dying of thirst. The Zamzam Well is located approximately 20 meters (66 ft) east of the Kaaba.

Taneem Mosque (Masjid Ayesha)

The mosque is roughly 4.5 miles (7.2 km) from Masjid al-Haram. This mosque is also known as Masjid Ayesha. “When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed his pilgrimage, he advised his companions to start with the Umrah and wait for the pilgrimage days to start on their major duty. However, Ayesha was on her menstrual period and was unable to perform the Umrah on her arrival. When she mentioned to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that she would go back having performed the pilgrimage only while others did both duties, he told her brother to take her to the nearest point outside of the Haram area. He took her to Taneem where she started her Ihram again and came back to perform the Umrah.
