Prayer

What is a good prayer for after killing an inocent animal?

a snapping turtle bit my curious puppy on the lip. She started bleeding like crazy and i did not know where she had been bit or how severe. While my brother tended to her i smashed the turtles shell in with a big rock. I have never seen anything suffer more in my life. It is now the next day and i still feel like shit. Could someone either give me a prayer or something that will make me feel better or at least take my mind off of it.

Rub a dub, dub…….. thanks God for the grub

How do Muslims begin a meal with prayer?

What is the procedure for beginning a meal with a prayer in a Muslim household? What are the words one would say (translated into English) as part of the traditional prayer?

Before a meal, we recite ‘Allahumma bariklana feema razaktana warzukhna khairan minhu. bismillahi wa’ala barakatillahi’
Meaning:
‘O Allah, bless it(the food) for us and feed us better than it.I begin in the Name of Allah with the Blessings of Allah’

I was taught this prayer by our mentor when I was 4 years old. ymoham3 and Moez are right too.

‘Bismillah ir-Rahman ir-Rahim’ which means "In the name of God, most Gracious, most Compassionate"
Muslims often utter this phrase before they set out to do anything.

After a meal:
‘Alhamdulillahi Rahman nir Rahim.’
Meaning:
‘ All praise to God, the most merciful and compassionate.’

What are your thoughts on the power of fasting and prayer?

I have fasted and prayed to God on several occasions asking for things for myself and my family. I read somewhere that God only answers our prayers if what we ask for is according to his will. To me that means that many of my prayers will go unanswered. But the things I have prayed for are very important to me and I don’t want to lose hope. What are your thoughts on the power of fasting and prayer?

No prayer goes unanswered, however God in his infinite wisdom may not answer it the way we would like it to be answered

Why do so many Christians complain about prayer being removed from school?

You do realize that your kids are free to pray in class anytime they wish, right?
And that the only thing removed from schools is the educators are not permitted to lead such a prayer.

So I wonder if you are teaching your kids all about church and god, why the heck do you need the teacher to direct prayer for them? Shouldn’t you be teaching them how to pray?

I can volunteer at any school, I can pray when in that school…I can not engage the children and force them to pray with me.

I have no problem with the rules…

my children were taught that they could stop drop and pray anywhere they wanted…..including school but they were told they could never ever ever force another child to join them, or try to make another student believe what they believed.

Why do Christians complain about school prayer in public schools?

Isn’t it your jobs as parents to teach your kids the morals and values you want to teach them? Why do you expect the schools to do your job for you? Schools don’t ban prayer, just school-sanctioned prayer. Kids can pray as much as they want as long they are respectful. If kids decide not to pray it’s because you didn’t teach them well enough, so why blame it on the school and the secular system? It’s your fault, deal with it. So what’s your problem.

They are confused, thats why they complain.
