"I'm from Planet Earth, Home of Islam" We are all responsible.

Abu Dawud Book 41, Number 4871: Narrated Miqdam ibn Ma'dikarib ; AbuUmamah: The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: When a ruler seeks to make imputations against the people, he corrupts them.

Al Bukhari Volume 1, Book 2, Number 18: Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri: Allah's Apostle said, "A time will come that the best property of a Muslim will be sheep which he will take on the top of mountains and the places of rainfall (valleys) so as to flee with his religion from afflictions."

Sunan Abu Dawud Book 37, Number 4284: Narrated Thawban: The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: The people will soon summon one another to attack you as people when eating invite others to share their dish. Someone asked: Will that be because of our small numbers at that time? He replied: No, you will be numerous at that time: but you will be foam and debris like that carried down by a torrent, and Allah will take fear of you from the breasts of your enemy and cast wahn into your hearts. Someone asked: What is wahn (enervation). Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him): He replied: Love of the world and dislike of death.

Al Bukhari Volume 5, Book 59, Number 351: (The Prophet S.A.W.) said "Be happy, and hope for what will please you. By Allah, I am not afraid that you will be poor, but I fear that worldly wealth will be bestowed upon you as it was bestowed upon those who lived before you. So you will compete amongst yourselves for it, as they competed for it and it will destroy you as it did them."

Al Bukhari Volume 3, Book 43, Number 626: Narrated Abu Musa: The Prophet said, "A believer to another believer is like a building whose different parts enforce each other." The Prophet then clasped his hands with the fingers interlaced (while saying that).

Al Bukhari Volume 3, Book 43, Number 624: Narrated Anas: Allah's Apostle said, "Help your brother, whether he is an oppressor or he is an oppressed one. People asked, "O Allah's Apostle! It is all right to help him if he is oppressed, but how should we help him if he is an oppressor?" The Prophet said, "By preventing him from oppressing others."

I'm using this site as a platform to encourage my fellow Muslims to think about and get involved in designing and developing our communities across the globe to be sustainable and comfortable and peaceful places to live, inshAllah. The links below are meant to spark ideas and give context about community development.


POMEROY, PREFACE TO THE SUBDIVISION OF LAND IN SAN MATEO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA 11 (1932)




"A subdivision is not merely a means of marketing land; it is far more, a process of community building. All the flurry of subdivision sales, all the financial considerations involved at the time, all the huge importance of immediate details--these are infinitesimal factors in the ultimate result, which is the addition of an integral part of the community, a part, which, once established in the comparatively short flash of time involved, is fixed to its physical framework and permanently marked in its character. The fleeting economic effect of the act of subdividing gives way to the permanent, inexorable economic and social effect of the subdivision as a part of the form and life of the community. No subdivision is too small to have character. It may be no more that a particular curve to a street, or the placing of the lots, or the skillful use of setbacks, or the planting plan; but it may give to a mere linear design the impulse of life and set it throbbing with vitality."

Muslim Book 004, Number 0790:
"Anas reported: One day the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) was sitting amongst us that he dozed off. He then raised his head smilingly. We said: What makes you smile. Messenger of Allah? He said: A Sura has just been revealed to me, and then recited: In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful. Verily We have given thee Kauthar (fount of abundance). Therefore turn to thy Lord for prayer and offer sacrifice, and surely thy enemy is cut off (from the good). Then he (the Holy Prophet) said: Do you know what Kauthar is? We said: Allah and His Messenger know best. The Holy Prophet (may peace be upon him) said: It (Kauthar) is a river which my Lord, the Exalted and Glorious has promised me, and there is an abundance of good in it. . ."

Ibn Khaldun's thesis on the rise and fall of dynasties: At the beginning of their power new dynasties are led by men of bedouin inclinations with no taste for luxury. Their spartan existence makes small demands on the body politic and they devote themselves to the proper purpose of government. The success of their rule leads to a thriving urban civilization. The high prosperity for a while permits government diversion of profits into luxuries. By the time the adverse effects (due to hidden costs) of the expansion of government activity into luxury areas is noticeable, it is too late to change for the generation raised in luxury have lost the meritorious attitudes of their ancestors that made effective minimalist government possible. As the dynasty grows old, the beneficiaries of urban civilization and of government largess have become used to laziness and ease. They are sunk in well-being and luxury. They have entrusted defense of their property and their lives to the governor and ruler who rules them, and to the militia which has the task of guarding them. They find full assurance of safety in the walls that surround them, and the fortifications that protect them. Thy are carefree and trusting, and have ceased to carry weapons. Successive generations have grown up in this way of life. They have become like women and children, who depend upon the master of the house. (Ibn Khaldun 1967, v. II, p. 257)






Why do we need to think about how we live and how our communities are built?

The following videos demonstrate some of the problems and concerns we need to understand. Some of the videos make predictions of the future. Of course, Allah only knows whether any of these predictions will actually materialize but it is nonetheless useful to learn about them.
