Abdul Qadir al-Jilani son of Abu Salih Musa son of Abi Abdullah son of Yahya Zahid son of Muhammad son of Dawud son of Musa Sani son of Abdullah Sani son of Musa al-Jaun son of Abdullah al-Mahaz son of Hasan Musanna son of Hasan ibn Ali
Ancestry From Mother
Abdul Qadir al-Jilani son of Um-ul-Khayr Fatima daughter of Abdullah as-Soma'i Muhammad son of Abu Mahmood Muhammad Tahir son of Abdul Ata Abdullah son of Abu Kamaluddin Isa son of Muhammad al-Taqi son of Ali al-Ridha son of Musa al-Kadhim son of Jaffar al-Sadiq son of Muhammad al-Baqir son of Zayn al-Abidin son of Husayn ibn Ali
Within al-Jilani's full name, al-Sayyid Muhiyudin Abu Muhammad Abdal Qadir al-Jilani al-Hasani wal-Hussaini, the word Sayyid denotes his descent from Muhammad.[10] The name Muhiyudin describes him as a "reviver of religion".[11] The phrase, al-Jilani refers to Al Gilani's region of birth.[12][13] However, Al-Gilani also carried the epithet, al-Baghdadi.[14][15][16] referring to his residence and burial in Baghdad. The phrase al-Hasani wal-Hussaini affirms his lineal descent from both Hasan ibn Ali and Hussein ibn Ali, the grandsons of Muhammad.[3][17]
Paternal Heritage
Abdul Qadir al-Jilani's father was a sharif.[18][19] He was respected as a saint would be, by the people of his day and was known as "Jangi Dost", (one who loves God), thus "Jangidost" was his sobriquet.[20][1] [21]
Maternal Heritage
Abdul Qadir al-Jilani's mother, Umm al-Khair Fatima, was the daughter of Sayyid Abdullah Sawmai az-Zaid and Zain ul Abideen[22][23][24][25] Abideen was known as, "a great saint of his time and a direct descendant of Hazrat Imam Husain, the great martyr of Karbala."[26] Abideen professed his greatness as a Sufi scholar,
"I am Hassani and my abode is my cell, And my feet are on the neck of each Saint. Abdul Qdir is my famous name. And my ancestor is one possessed of an insight Perfect." (Qaseedada-tul-Gausia). Education
Abdul Qadir al-Jilani spent his early life in Naif, the town of his birth. In 1095, at the age of eighteen years, Al Gilani went to Baghdad. There, he pursued the study of Hanbali law. Abu Ali al-Mukharrimi gave Al Gilani lessons about Fiqh. He was given lessons about Hadith by Abu Bakr ibn Muzaffar. He was given lessons about Tafsir by Abu Muhammad Ja'far, a commentator. In Tasawwuf, his spiritual instructor was Abu'l-Khair Hammad ibn Muslim al-Dabbas. After completing his education, Gilani left Baghdad. He spent twenty-five years as a reclusive wanderer in the desert regions of Iraq.[27]
Later Life
In 1127, al-Jilani returned to Baghdad and began to preach in public. He joined the teaching staff of the school belonging to his teacher al-Mukharrimii and was popular with students. In the morning he taught hadith and tafsir, and in the afternoon held discourse on the science of the hearts and the virtues of the Qur'an. From 521 to 561 AH.
During this period hundreds of thousands of people converted to Islam because of him and organized several teams to go abroad for dawah purposes.[citation needed]
al-Jilani was also the teacher of Ibn Qudamah. Al Gilani made Qudamah a Caliph of his Sufi order. Qudamah later fought as a general in Sultan Saladin Ayyubi's army which took rule in Jerusalem from the Christians.
Death & Burial
Al Galini died in the evening on Saturday 1166 (11 Rabi'us sani 561AH) at the age of ninety-one years (by the Islamic calendar).[28] His body was entombed in a shrine within his madrassa in Babul-Sheikh, Resafa (East bank of the Tigris) in Baghdad, Iraq.[29][30][31] Worldwide, the Sufi orders celebrate "Ghouse-al-azham day" on al-Jilani's birthday rather than on his date of death.
Abdul Qadir al-Jilani continued the spiritual chain of Junayd Baghdadi. His contribution to thought in the Muslim world earned him the title Muhiyuddin, meaning, "the reviver of the faith". al-Jilani, along with his students and associates laid the groundwork for the society which later produced stalwarts like Nur ad-Din and Saladin.[citation needed]
Abdul Qadir al-Jilani took four wives. He had forty-nine children, twenty-seven sons and twenty-two daughters.[citation needed] Among his sons are: Shaikh Abdul-Wahab, Sheikh Abdul-Razzaq, Shaikh Abdul-Aziz, Shaikh Isa, Shaikh Musa, Sheikh Yahya, Sheikh Abdullah, Sheikh Muhammed and Sheikh Ibrahim. Since al-Jilani's time, his sons and grandsons have travelled to the Indian sub-continent to preach Islam by his method (Arabic=Tareqa,طريقة).One of the most famous descendents is Syed Abdul Razzaq Nur-ul-Alyn who is the nephew and Sajjada Nasheen of Ashraf Jahangir Semnani starting the Qadiriyyah Ashrafiya Silsila. They have reached North Africa, Morocco, and parts of the Horn of Africa. These areas include Ethiopia, Eritrea, and Somalia. In Somalia, the Qadiriyyah order is dominant although there are small areas where Ahmed ibn Idris' order is found. Again, in Somalia, the order is divided into the Zaylaiyyah order and the Uwaisiyyah order. The daughters of Syed Jalaluddin Hasan (Raees Hasan and Anees Khan) are the custodians of al-Jilani's namaz (prayer) cap (the "Kulhe Mubarak"). A ziyarat (pilgrimage) is made for al-Jilani each year.
In Defence of The Imaam,
Shaikh Abdul-Qaadir Jeelaanee (d.561H)
Series compilers and Trans: Abu Hibbaan & Abu Khuzaimah Ansaari
Ahlul-Bid'ah Waz-Zaigh have attributed all sorts of heretical and innovative beliefs to Shaikh Abdul-Qaadir Jeelaanee, more so in our times especially by the soofee's of the world, the bareilwee's the deobandee's. Some of these individuals have distorted and misinterpreted the teachings of the Shaikh in as much portraying the shaikh to be from amongst the propagator's of Soofism, Wahdatul-Wajood, Fana, Baqa and Wahdatash-Shahood and other heretical beliefs. These individuals from Zaytuna institute in California, the translator of the reliance of the traveler and their foot soldiers are all upon this, this is their way and this what they propagate. So we humbly ask them show us the uniformity of your beliefs and the beliefs of Shaikh Abdul Qaadir Jeelaanee.
His Life (Summarised)
Shaikh Abdul-Qaadir Jeelaanee's full name is Abdul-Qaadir bin Abee Saaleh Abdullah bin Jankee Daust al-Jailee (al-Jeelaanee). His kunyah was Abu Muhammad and his title's were Muhi ud deen and Shaikh ul-Islaam. (Siyar A'laam an-Nabula (20/439), al-Bidaayah Wan-Nihaayah (12/252). Fawaat al-Wafyaat (2/373), Shadhraat adh-Dhahab (4/198).
Imaam Sama'anee referred to him as Imaam al-Hanaabillah (Imaam of the Hanbalee's) (Dhail A'la Tabqaat al-Hanaabillah (1/291) of Ibn Rajab)
The author of Shadhraat traced his lineage to Hussain bin Alee (Radhiallaahu Anhuma) and he was born in 471H and according to some 470H in the place of Jeelaan. (Siyar A'laam an-Nabula (20/439).
Imaam Dhahabee mentioned he came to Baghdaad in his childhood. (Siyar A'laam an-Nabula (20/439).
His Teachers and Students
Haafidh Dhahabee mentioned the following as his teachers. Qaadheee Abu Sa'eed Makhramee, Abu Ghaalib (Muhammad bin Hussain) Baqalaanee, Ahmad bin Muzaffar bin Saus, Abu Qaasim bin Bayaan, Ja'afar bin Ahmad Siraaj, Abu Sa'ad bin Khasheesh, Abu Taalib Yoosufee and others. (Siyar A'laam an-Nabula (20/440).
From his students Imaam Dhahabee has mentioned, Abu Sa'ad Sama'anee, Umar bin Alee Qurashee, Shaikh Muwaffiq ud deen ibn Qudaamah (the author of the monumental book, Lu'matul Ei'tiqaad), Abdur-Razzaaq bin Abdul-Qaadir and Moosaa bin Abdul Qaadir (both are the sons of the Shaikh), Alee bin Idrees, Ahmad bin Mu'tee Abu Hurairah, Muhammad bin Laith Wastaanee, Akmal bin Mas'ood Haashimee, Abu Taalib Abdul-Lateef bin Muhammad bin Qabeetee and others. (Siyar A'laam an-Nabula (20/440).
After learning the Shaikh began to admonish and cultivate the people with sincerity. As a result Allaah aided him and put much blessing in his work and his circles and his admonishes became very famous, to the extent that the rulers of the time would also participate in his circles aswell as major people of knowledge of his time. The affect of the Shaikh's admonishing was such that many a people repented for their sins and mistakes. (Siyar A'laam an-Nabula (20/441).
Haafidh Ibn Katheer said, "After he came to Baghdaad he started seeking knowledge of hadeeth and Fiqh from Abu Sa'eed Makhramee Hanbalee. Abu Sa'eed had a small institution, which he handed over to Shaikh Abdul Qaadir. In this institution the Shaikh would deliver lectures of knowledge and would admonish the people, many people benefited from him." (al-Bidaayah Wan-Nihaayah (12/252).
The Shaikh died in 561H and the age of 90. (Siyar A'laam an-Nabula (20/450)
The Shaikh authored a number of books (which will be quoted from) however many books are also attributed to him which he himself did not write and it is these books which Ahlul-Bid'ah have utilized in disparaging the Shaikh and his Aqeedah.
Al-Ghuniyyah ut-Taalibeen
This the Shaikh's most famous work and his beliefs, his way and ideology are mentioned in this book. Its proper name chosen by the Shaikh as al-Ghuniyyah ut-Taaliben Tareeq al-Haqq. However some latter people (from the Soofiyyah) have denounced this book and denied it to be a work of the Shaikh on the account of its contents. So in order to repel this fallacy, Haajee Khaleefah said,
"al-Ghuniyyatuh ut-Taalibeen Tareeq al-Haqq is the work of Abul-Qaadir Jeelaanee who died in 561H." (Kashf adh-Dhanoon (2/121).
Haafidh Ibn Katheer and Shaikh ul-Islaam Imaam Ibn Taymiyyah have mentioned this to be the book of Shaikh Abdul-Qaadir Jeelaanee (al-Bidaayah Wan-Nihaayah (12/252), Majmoo Fatwaa (5/15).
He also wrote Fatooh al-Gayb, Fath ur-Rabbaanee Wal-Faidh ar-Rehmaanee and a number of other works.
The Shaikhs Belief's and Teachings
From the works of the Shaikh his belief's and teaching were the same as Ahlus-Sunnah Wal-Jama'ah. The Shaikh said,
"My belief's are the belief's which were upheld by the Companions and the (Salaf us-Saaleh) Pious Predecessors." (Siyar A'laam an-Nabula (20/442).
Similarly he would also instruct and advise others to adhere to this madhab and the belief of the companions and Salaf us-Saaleh, he would say,
"Upon you is Ittibaa (following and obeying) and not innovation and upon you is the madhab of the Salaf as-Saaleh and this is the straight path you should firmly adhere to." (al-Fath ur-Rabbaanee (p.35)
He also said
"It is upon the believer to follow and obey the Sunnah and those upon the Sunnah, the Jama'ah. The Sunnah is what the Messenger of Allaah (Sallalahu Alayhee Was-Sallam) declared to be Sunnah and the Jama'ah is that, which the companions are agreed upon." (al-Ghuniyyah (1/165)..
Concerning Eemaan
There are differences in the Issue of Eemaan between Ahlus-Sunnah and the deviated sects. Shaikh Abdul-Qaadir explained Eemaan just as Ahlus-Sunnah described it. He said,
"We believe Eemaan is the statement of the tongue, the affirmation of the heart and action of the limbs, it increases with obedience and decreases with disobedience. It is strengthened with knowledge and weakened with ignorance…" (al-Ghuniyyah (1/135).
Concerning Tawheed
The Shaikh said concerning Tawheed ar-Raboobiyyah and Tawheed al-Uloohiyyah,
"The soul is inclined to obey its creator because The Rabb is his creator and master and it (the soul) is dependent in worshipping its Rabb." (Fatooh al-Gayb (pg.21)
He also said
"The person who wishes to enter into Islaam, it is obligatory upon him that he must first say the Shahadah that None has the right to be worshipped except Allaah and Muhammad (Sallalahu Alayhee Was-Sallam) is his Messenger. He must also dissociate himself from all the other religions other than Islaam and believe in the oneness of Allaah with his heart." (al-Ghuniyyah (1/13).
Concerning Asmaa Was-Sifaat
The Shaikh said
"In regard to this we do not leave the Book and the Sunnah. We recite the verses and the narrations and have faith in them and we leave the kayfiyyah (howness-of these) attributes to Allaah." (al-Ghuniyyah (1/125).
The Shaikh has refuted the deviated sects on their beliefs of the attributes of Allaah in detail in his book (al-Ghuniyyah (1/125-140) so please refer to it.
Concerning The Qur'aan
Shaikh Abdul-Qaadir said
"Our belief is the Qur'aan is the speech of Allaah, the holy book and it is revelation which was revealed upon the Messenger of Allaah (Sallalahu Alayhee-Wasallam) by Jibraa'eel." (al-Ghuniyyah (1/125-140).
In Refutation of Shirk and Innovations
The Shaikh was a firm propagator of Tawheed and a destroyer of Shirk and innovations as was evident from his statements. Some of them are,
1. "Man should supplicate to Allaah, praise and glorify him, then send salutations upon the Messenger of Allaah and then finally ask Allaah for his needs." (al-Ghuniyyah (1/92).
2. "It is unlawful to swear by anyone other than Allaah so if someone wishes to swear then let him do so by Allaah only or otherwise let him remain silent." (al-Ghuniyyah (1/92).
3. "When you visit the graves then do not put your hands on them or kiss them as this is the habit of the jews, nor sit on the graves or rest against them. Then ask Allaah for your needs." (al-Ghuniyyah (1/91).
4. "Follow and obey and do not innovate. Agree with the religion and do not differ, obey and do not disobey, have sincerity and do not do Shirk. Accept Allaah as one and do not turn away from him. Ask Allaah and do not ask others. Ask him for help and do not anyone else for help. Have reliance and trust in him and do not have reliance in anyone else." (al-Fath ur-Rabbaanee (pg.151).
5. "The whole creation is dependent upon him and helpless without him. No can benefit or harm you…" (Fath ur-Rabbaanee (pg.89).
Shaikh ul-Islaam Imaam Ibn Taymiyyah On Shaikh Abdul Qaadir.
It also appears the Shaikh was an upholder of the Salafee Aqeedah as he has in his al-Ghuniyyah refuted and censured all the deviated sects from the Shee'ah Rawaafidh, Murjee'ah, Qadariyyah, Jahmiyyah, Karamiyyah, Mu'tazilah and others. The only one left are the Ashaabul Hadeeth or Ahlus-Sunnah and it is this group of people the Shaikh informed the people to adhere to.
Shaikh ul-Islaam in his refutation of the deviated sects, and he has a recognized status in this, used the statements of Shaikh Abul-Qaadir as supports and witnesses. (see Majmoo Fataawa (5/85), (10/455, 524, 548), (11/604).
So if there were any problems with the Aqeedah of Shaikh Abdul-Qaadir then Shaikh ul-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah would have most definitely indicated or clarified them. Rather, we see the contrary to this as he refers and addresses Shaikh Abdul-Qaadir al-Jeelaanee as, The Major Shaikh, ash-Shaikh, the Imaam, One of the Imaams and so on. (see Majmoo Fataawa (5/85), (11/604).
Zuhd and Tasawwuf
It should be known that concepts such as Hulool, Wahdatal-Wajood, Wahdash-Shahood and other were found amongst the soofee's like Ibn Arabee and Abdul-Kareem Jailee, the later soofees and in Mansoor al-Hallaaj. This is the reason why earlier books of so-called Soofee's had correct Aqeedah in them also but they also fell short in aspects of purifying their souls.
The term soofism was not found amongst the earlier generations especially during the first period. However in the second and third periods the words Zuhd, Aabid and Saaleh would be used for highly pious people and later the word soofee began being used for these people. (See Majmoo Fataawa (6/11).
Shaikh Abdul-Qaadir has a detailed discussion in his al-Ghuniyyah (2/269-336) which is nothing but concerning Zubd and Taqwaa, trust, hope, love and truthfulness in Allaah.
The Shaikh himself refuted Wahdatal-Wajood and said,
"Allaah rises over his throne.. Allaah is upon his throne…..and he is separate from the creation and nothing is hidden from his knowledge and it is not correct to say he is present everywhere and this is what Allaah has mentioned in the Qur'aan, "The most Merciful rose over the Throne." (Tahaa:5)" (al-Ghuniyyah (1/121-124).
Karamah And Miracles (Mu'ajizah)
The Difference between the two is that a miracle is performed at the hands of the Prophets like the splitting of the moon by our Messenger (Sallahu Alayhee Was-Sallam) and the cooling of the Fire for Ibraaheem (Alyahis-Salaam). A karamah on the other hand is something amazing performed at the hands of a Walee. Howeverthe following need to be understood,
1. A mu'ajizah is performed at the hand of a prophet and a karamah in the hands of a Walee.
2. Just as a walee's status cannot reach the status of a Prophet, similarly a walee's karamah cannot be considered to be synonymous with a Prophets miracle. (Dalaa'il an-Nabuwwah (pgs.109-112).
3. The Prophets or walee's do not have any authority in performing the miracles or karamah's, their occurrence is due to the command of Allaah. (Soorah al-Israa:90-93).
4. It is not permissible for a muslim at all to deny a miracle of a Prophet however a walee's karamah can be accepted OR rejected. (See Majmoo Fataawa (11/208).
There is no doubt Shaikh Abdul-Qaadir was a pious and righteous individual and it is possible some of the karamah's attributed to him maybe correct, however so many have been attributed to him by extreme soofee's who pass the limits and enter the realms of Ghuloo in doing so and most of these are without evidence or authentic chains. So the affair is that many of the karamah's attributed to him are not true but mere blind love of the soofee's who forged them and attributed them to him.
Haafidh Dhahabee said,
"I say there is not a shaikh from the major Shayookh's whose karamah's are more well known than the karamah's of Shaikh Abdul-Qaadir, however most of them are not correct and some of them are from the things which are impossible." (Siyar (20/450).
Haafidh Ibn Katheer also said something very similar. (al-Bidaayah Wan-Nihaayah (12/252).
Some of the people who had extreme love for Shaikh Abdul-Qaadir compiled his karamah's in a book. One such person was Alee bin Yoosuf ash-Shatnoofee who died 150 years after the death of Shaikh Abdul-Qaadir in approximately 713H. (see al-A'laam (5/188), Kashf adh-dhanoon (1/257).
Shatnoofee mentioned the karamah's of Shaikh Abdul-Qaadir in such a manner as if he was from the Shaikh's time and the reader is fooled into thinking this. Shatnoofee also attempted to mention these karamah's with his own chains and most of these are weak due to the narrators in the chain. This is the reason why the research scholars reprimanded Shatnoofee strongly.
So Haafidh Ibn Hajr mentioned from Shaikh al-Kamaal Ja'afar, "Shatnoofee has mentioned very strange and odd things in this book and the people have criticized most of the incidences he has mentioned and their chains." (ad-Durr al-Kaaminah (3/142).
Ibn al-Wardee mentioned in his Taareekh, "Bahjatul-Israar (the name of Shatnoofee's book) contains such things which cannot be accepted and such exaggerated things have been mentioned about Shaikh Abdul-Qaadir that are not possible for anyone except Allaah." (Kashf adh-Dhanoon (1/257).
Haafidh Ibn Rajab said, "Shatnoofee has written a three volume book on Shaikh Abdul-Qaadir and in it he has compiled a mountain of lies. Whereas it is sufficient for a person be declared a liar for him to narrate everything he hears. I have seen some of the quotes in the book but my soul was not content in believing them because firstly the narrations have been taken from unknown people. Secondly not only are their mountains of lies and allegations on Shaikh Abdul-Qaadir but it is also contrary to the status of the Shaikh if attributed to him. The statement of Shaikh al-Kamaal has also passed by me where he says the things Shanoofee has mentioned in his book Bahjatul-Israar have caused him to be accused (of lying)." (Dhail Tabaqaat (1/293) of Ibn Rajab).
Although Shaikh Abdul-Qaadir Jeelaanee also had mistakes like every son of Adam, Haafidh Dhahabee the student of Imaam Ibn Taymiyyah described them as,
"The summary is Shaikh Abdul-Qaadir was a man of great respect however some of his statements still need looking into and weighed up, which we leave to Allaah, and from some of them are lies which have been attributed to him." (Siyar (20/451).
Shaikh ul-Islaam Imaam Ibn Taymiyyah said, "Such statements and actions have been mentioned from some of the Mujtahid's from the Salaf us-Saaliheen which are included as innovations. However the people of knowledge did not take them as innovations rather they took them on the basis of weak narrations thinking the narration was authentic. Similarly they extrapolated from verses and these extrapolations were not correct and they were unable to find specific texts in some of these issues. When someone has fear of Allaah in his heart then he falls under the saying of Allaah, "Oh Rabb if w err or make a mistake then do not account us for it." And the Saheeh mentions, "Allaah says I accept." (Majmoo Fataawa (19/191).

[edit] Lineage and Biography
Abdul-Qadir ibn Abi Salih Musa ibn Abdullah ibn Yahya ibn Muhammad ibn Abu Muhammad AbuBakr Dawud ibn Musa ibn Abdullah ibn Musa Jawni ibn Abdullah ibn Hassan al-Muthanna ibn Hassan ibn Ali ibn Abi Talib , and this on his father side so you can see why they call him al-Hassani due to his tracing up to Muhammad's grandson Hassan ibn Ali. On his mother side, she is the daughter of a saintly person Abdullah Sawmai who was a direct descendant of Imam Husain ibn Ali making the Shaykh also al-Husayni due to this.
Al-Gilani was born in 1078 CE (471 AH) in a small town of Iranian Gilan Province. His ancestors were Syeds who settled in Gilan (arabacized to Jilan) hence the epiphet of al-Jilani.[5][6] " Sayyid Abu Muhammad Abdul Qadir R.A was born in Naif in the District of Gilan in Persia (Iran) in the month of Ramadan....His father's name was Abu Salih, a God-fearing man and a direct descendant of Hazrat Imam Hasan R.A., the eldest son of Ali R.A, the Holy Prophet's (SAW) first cousin, and of Fatima R.A his beloved daughter. His mother was the daughter of a saintly person- Abdullah Sawmai who was a direct descendant of Imam Husain A.S, the younger son of Ali R.A and Fatima R.A. Thus Sayyid Abdul Qadir was both a Hasani and Hussaini[7] "
His complete name Al-Syed Muhiyudin Abu Muhammad Abdal Qadir al-Gaylani al-Hasani wal-Hussaini,[1][2] Syed denoting his honorific title of descendancy from the Islamic prophet Muhammad,[8] Muhiyudin his title for being known popularly as "the reviver of religion",[9] Abu Muhammad his Kunya or nick name (meaning 'father of Muhammad'), al-Gaylani denoting the region he hailed from[10][11] although however he also had the epiphet al-Baghdadi. [12][13][14] (denoting also the city of Baghdad where he was now residing in and therefore also geographically recognised through, eventually being buried there), and al-Hasani wal-Hussaini affirming his lineal descent from both Syed Imam Hasan and Imam Hussain, the grandsons of Muhammad.[1][15]
His father, Syed Abu Saleh Musa al-Hasani[16] was a direct descendant of the Syed Imam Hasan.[15][17] He was an acknowledged saint of his day "..and was popularly known as Jangi Dost, because of his love for Jihad"[18] Jangi dost thereby being his sobriquet[5][19]
His mother Ummal Khair Fatima,[20] daughter of Syed Abdullah Sawmai az-Zaid a descendant of Syed Imam Hussain[15][21] through Imam Zain ul Abideen,[22] he was known himself as a "great saint of his time and a direct descendant of Hazrat Imam Husain, the Great Martyr of Karbala"[23]
Ghous e Azam Shrine [edit] Education
He spent his early life in the town of his birth. At the age of eighteen he went to Baghdad (1095), where he pursued the study of Hanbali law under several teachers. The Shaikh received lessons on Fiqh from Abu Ali al-Mukharrimi, Hadith from Abu-Bakar-bin-Muzaffar, and tafsir from the renowned commentator, Abu Muhammad Jafar. When he was on the way going to "Baghdad" with a large convoy (Qafila), a group of thieves attacked the convoy and took all of their precious belongings, one of the thieves came to him (Sheikh Abdul-Qadir Gilani) and asked him "Boy, tell me what you have in your luggage". He replied "I have forty dinars." The thief searched all of his luggage and could not find the dinars. He then took the boy to his sardar (master) and told him that this boy (Sheikh Abdul-Qadir Gilani) claims he has forty dinars, but after searching his belongings I could not find the dinars. The sardar (master) then asked, "Boy, do you lie?" He replied "No, I am not lying, the dinars were sewn by my mother into my shalwar." Then one of the thieves checked and found the money. The sardar then asked him. "Boy, you could have lied to us and could have saved your money, why you didn't you lie?" Sheikh Abdul-Qadir Gilani replied "Before I started my journey, my mother advised me to tell the truth even if someone tries to kill me as Allah frowns upon those who do not speak the truth." After listening to this the sardar began to cry, as this little boy had so much fear of Allah that he did not lie in such a situation. He felt guilt for all his wrongdoings and felt the fear of Allah so the sardar then gave back all of the looted things to their owners.
In Tasawwuf (the sciences of the heart), his spiritual instructor was Shaikh Abu'l-Khair Hammad bin Muslim al-Dabbas. From him, he received his basic training, and with his help he set out on a spiritual journey.
After completion of education, Abdul-Qadir Gilani abandoned the city of Baghdad, and spent twenty-five years as a wanderer in the desert regions of Iraq as a recluse.[24] [edit] Later life
He was over fifty years old by the time he returned to Baghdad in 1127, and began to preach in public. He moved into the school belonging to his old teacher al-Mukharrimii; there he engaged himself in teaching. Soon he became popular with his pupils. In the morning he taught hadith and tafsir, and in the afternoon held discourse on science of the hearts and the virtues of the Qur'an.
He busied himself for forty years in the service of Islam from 521 to 561 AH. During this period hundreds of thousands of people converted to Islam because of him and organized several teams to go abroad for dawah purposes.
He was also the teacher of Ibn Qudamah whom he also designated as a Caliph of his Qadri order (amongst others). Ibn Qudamah also later fought as a general in Sultan Saladin Ayyubi's army and conquered Jerusalem from the Christian dominance. His work and jurisprudent works influenced Ibn Taymiyyah who referred to both Ibn Qudamah and Shaikh Al-Gilani as his Shaikhs with full honorifics. [edit] Death
The sheikh died on Saturday night 1166 (8th Rabi' al-Awwal 561AH) [25] at the age of ninety one years (by the Islamic calendar), and was entombed in a shrine within his Madrassa in Baghdad.[26][27][28] His Shrine and Mosque are in what used to be the school he preached in, located in Babul-Sheikh, Resafa (East bank of the Tigris) in Baghdad, Iraq. Worldwide the Qadiriyyah celebrate Ghouse-al-azham day on Wednesday closest to his birthday not his death-date for respect and elevation of their Shaykh which is 10th of Rabi at-Thani in the islamic calendar[25]
Al-Gilani succeeded the spiritual chain of Junayd Baghdadi. His contribution to thought in the Muslim world earned him the title Muhiyuddin (lit. "The reviver of the faith"), as he along with his students and associates laid the groundwork for the society which later produced stalwarts like Nur ad-Din and Saladin. His Sufi order named after him is generally thought to be one of the most popular Sufi orders of the Islamic world.[29]
The tomb of Abdul Qadir Gilani and other Sunni sites including tomb of Imam Abu Hanifa were destroyed by Shia zealot Shah Ismail of Safavi empire in 1508.[30] In 1533, Ottomans reconquered Iraq and rebuilt the tomb of Abdul Qadir Gilani and other Sunni sites.[31]
Aulia Ghaus-e-Azam [edit] Family
The Shaikh had four virtuous wives and forty-nine children, twenty-seven sons and twenty-two daughters.[citation needed] The most famous of his sons are Shaikh Abdul-Wahab, Sheikh Abdul-Razzaq, Shaikh Abdul-Aziz, Shaikh Isa, Shaikh Musa, Sheikh Yahya, Sheikh Abdullah, Sheikh Muhammed and Sheikh Ibrahim. His sons and grandsons reached the Indian sub-continent throughout the years preaching Islam in his method (Arabic=Tareqa,طريقة). As they have reached the Western part of the Arab world of North Africa and Morocco, and parts of the Horn of Africa (Ethiopia, Eritrea, and Somalia (a country that predominantly professes to the Qadiriyyah order only in the Sufi sect though small patches of Ahmed ibn Idris' order is found) ). In Somalia the order is subdivided to Zaylaiyyah order and Uwaisiyyah order.
Among the Sufis, who came to India from Baghdad, and who belonged to the family of Shaykh Abd-ul-Qadir Jilani Hz. Shah Badr Dewan whose real name was Hasan, and whose honorific title was Badr-ud-Din, is one of the top most Sufis. He stayed near Batala, and laid the foundation of Masania, a kind of inn in his times, but later populated by his children, grand children and great grand children, became a village of its own culture. The progeny of Baba Shah Badr Dewan is one of the biggest Syed Families, whose origin goes straight to Shaykh Syed Abd-ul-Qadir Jilani His shajara is as follows:
1.Hz. Syed Hasan Badr -ud- Din alias Shah Badar Deewan Baghdadi s/o 2.Hz. Syed Sharaf-ud-Din s/o 3.Hz. Syed Muhayy-ud-Din Abd-ul-Qaadir (II) s/o 4.Hz. Syed Shams-ud-Din Muhammad (II) s/o 5.Hz. Syed Alaa-ud-Din Ali s/o 6.Hz. Syed Shams-ud-Din Muhammad (I) s/o 7.Hz. Syed Sayf-ud-Din Yahya s/o 8.Hz. Syed Zaheer-ud-Din Ahmad s/o 9.Hz. Syed Shahaab-ud-Din Ali an-Nasr s/o 10.Hz. Syed Imaad-ud-Din Saalih an-Nasr s/o 11.Hz. Syed Taaj-ud-Din Abd-ur-Razzaaq s/o 12.Qutb-e-Rabbani, Ghouth-e-Samadani, Mehboob-e-Subhani, Miran Mohayy-ud-Din, Syed Abd-ul-Qadir Jailaani Al-Hasani, Al-Husaini, Al-Hanbali, Al-Baghdadi Radi Allahu Anhu. Education
Hz. Syed Hasan Badr-ud-Din r.a. had given bay'at to his father Hz. Syed Sharaf-ud-Din r.a. s/o Hz. Syed Muhayy-ud-Din Abd-ul-Qaadir r.a. (II), who, a man of extra ordinary caliber in the generation of Huzoor Ghouth-e-Azam r.a, had taught him the knowledge of inner (Baatin) and outer (Zaahir), even in his twenties, and had raised him to the level of a Wali of Allah Taala.
Stays in Lahore and Amritsar
He left his home in 908 of Hijra and came to Lahore where he spent some years in preaching. A lot of people from Lahore, in particular, and Punjab, in general, embraced Islam on his hands, and became his followers. He then went to Amritsar, and spent somewhat equal amount of time there. Again, in few years, a lot of people gathered around him as his followers or devotees. As in Lahore, he observed a Chilla in Amritsar, too.
Arrival to Batala, India
From Amritsar, probably in 920 of Hijra, he came to Batala and stayed at place called Mian Muhalla. He spent some years in ibaadat and tableegh in Mian Muhalla, and then moved to another place that had no name by then and that had not been inhabited also. He settled down at this nameless place and laid the foundation of Masanian ( also called Masani ), the sacred abode of the children of Baba Shah Badr Dewan r.a. for so many coming years.
Marriage and Children
He got married to Hz. Syeda Bibi Murass'a Fatima r.a, daughter of Hz. Syed Shahaab-ud-Din Daood Bukhari r.a. of village Sohal in Gurdaspur, and had four sons and a daughter.
1.Syed Ali Saabir Shah Gailaani Qaadri r.a. 2.Syed Habeebullah Shah Gailaani Qaadri r.a. 3.Syed Abd-ul-Lateef Shah Gailaani Qaadri r.a. 4.Syed Muhammad Saadiq Gailaani Qaadri r.a. 5.Syeda Bibi Fatima alias Allah Bandi (Allah's servant) also known as Bibi Pak Daman r.a.
He died on 12th of Rabi-ul-Awwal, 1018 of Hijra in Masanian. On his grave a majestic Rauda or Mazaar was built by his grand son Shah Abd-ush-Shukur Gailaani Qaadri r.a. It has four minarets, two courtyards and many domes. Annual festival (Urs) is held on 12th Rabi-ul-Awwal and the monthly fair or nau-chandi is arranged on first Thursday of each new moon in Masanian and Lahore.

text: So I guess I'll start off with a little history about the cars I've owned. The first one was an old vovlo 850 wagon.... heated seats, moonroof, kinda had some power but not really. Bought a 2010 civic college and ****ing loved it. But it didn't really throw you back in your seat. It was peppy though. But here I am today, just got outta college, got a badass job and I'm about to move out of texas to south dakota.... and there's lots of snow there. My parents wanted to give my civic to my sis and me to get an awd car. So here I was looking at jeeps and stuff, thinking I'd be stuck with a slow cow car..... then I saw the WRX. I didn't exactly know what they were, but I'd seen them around, always loud as **** and zooming past me. So I dropped the jeep idea and started looking up used WRXs but they kept their value so well that I figured I'd just buy a brand new one. And that's what I did after a few weeks of research, obsessing and getting myself excited lol.And I went out and finally bough it today, silver, hatch. God I love it. It's too damn exciting lol. I wish I could just drive it more, but the insurance hasn't come in yet..... And I'm stil kinda learning stick. I was surprised how like easy it was for a begginer like me! It's really reassuring. I can't wait to drive it more. Im just rambling on now... so anyway my name's zed and it's great to meet you all!

UK BB10 Customers
Quick Channel Check Time
First, you need to examine Ebay in the US. Phones are selling for $1700. I haven't seen this kind of off-market pricing since iPhone 1.
I took a walk down High Street Kensington in London today and walked into three stores:
Phones 4u:
The store has had numerous inquiries so far and are very surprised. One gentleman walked in with 12 BB 10 phones in a bag and looking to buy more (Black marketer.) Seriously, a black market for Blackberries? Give me a break.
(Everything Everywhere (TMobile and Orange UK))
This morning alone the store sold seven contracts and said this was a lot for them. There is a lot of walk-in interest too.
This was the only vendor to sell the phone sim free, off plan. It is sold out of phones (most London CPWs are sold out, you can check inventory online). More interestingly, as of this morning, CarphoneWarehouse have stopped selling them sim free, off contract. Now this about-face, which is not even visible online as of 3 PM London time today (It still reads 'sim free available') should tell you that the largest phone retailer in the UK has been caught flat footed by the demand. (My experience is they accept the order and then email you back two hours later 'Sorry'. Try it for yourself.) This is only done when CPW feels it has so much leverage having handsets in store that it can force contracts out of users. This is basically a very aggressive move by CPW to leverage phones into contracts. CPW only does this when it has a hit, like an iPhone in the past. It's also clearly unplanned. The employee remarked that this will not change probably for another two weeks.
What does this mean to you?
Well, if a Blackberry with barely any ad support in the UK and no keyboard is flying off the shelf, you need to understand that the un-crossable bridge for Blackberry, selling new phones in the first world, has just been crossed, and it managed this with a keyboard-less phone. With the BBRY stock down from $18 to $13.25, this is a steal.

Pobst lies second in series having scored a top-three finish in five of the season's six races staged to date. Defending GT champion Galati, meanwhile, has borne the brunt of misfortune in many of this season's races although recorded a 2003 personal best sixth place finish in the last race at the Infineon Raceway [Sears Point, CA] last Sunday (27 Jul). While the characteristics of last weekend's Sears track were arguably the least favorable on the 10-race calendar for the large, four-door Audi sedan, the famous 4.048-mile, 14-turn Road America track is likely to allow Randy and Michael to fully use the potential of the all-wheel-drive Audi and its powerful V8 bi-turbo motor. Pobst bids to re-take the series lead after being deposed last Sunday when he was forced to pit two laps from the checker with a punctured right, front tire necessitating a pit-stop. The Audi Sport North America supported Champion Racing team started from pole-position (2:23.871secs, 101.290mph), scored a dominant, green light to checker victory and set the fastest lap (2:25.349secs, 100.260mph) courtesy Galati in the Audi S4 Competition – a model replaced by the RS 6 this year. Michael Galati: "I started from pole and won last year's Speed GT race at Road America and I'm hoping for a repeat performance. It should definitely be a good track for the RS 6 and I'm doubly looking forward to the weekend because it is one of my favorite tracks. It will be particularly important to take good care of the brakes during the race. We'll be hitting between 160-170mph at times and braking down to around 50mph each lap so they have a lot of work to do for around 50-minutes." Randy Pobst: "Road America is well-known for its long straight-aways which should perfectly suit the Audi's powerful, twin turbo V8 motor. I love the track which has changed very little since I first raced there many years ago. It's in a beautiful setting and features both fast and slow corners combined with the extremely fast 'kink' section that again, I believe, will be perfect for the new Audis with our all-wheel-drive traction. I led the GT class in last year's ALMS race at Road America and have previously won a Grand-Am GT category race at Road America."

American Standard Freedom 80
When I first turned the furnace on this fall, no heat only cold air. Fan motor runs and the vent motor starts up and then stops right away. Glow plug does not come on. LED flashes 9 times, board says chek igniter, but I took igniter to neighbors house, plugged it in his furnace and it works.
Filters are clean, gas is on, vent fan motor stops right after starting. The unit is 8 years old.
Is my ciruit board bad?? I have power to the circuit board for the vent fan and the igniter.
If anyone can help with answers, I would appreciate it.
Kenneth L
There's a few things to check. Use a multi-meter to check for 120V going to the igniter. Check the fuse on the board...should be a 3 amp blade type (protects the 24V system circuits). Check that the transformer is putting out 24V.
Kenneth L,
Funny this issue should arrive. Today as a matter of fact I ran into the same issue. I was getting a ignition fault code of 9 blinks. I investigated the ignitor only to find odly enough a loose wire. As far as ohming out the ignitor it should be any where from 15 to 20 ohms. I received 14.7 which is just fine. I put the ignitor wires back together only to find the unit would fire up just fine. this sparked my interest. no pun intended. So I wiggled the ignitor connection to find small arks happening at this terminal. This was a down draft unit. also the unit would throw a high limit open signal. 4 blinks. all this stems from a loose ignitor wire. wiggle them in and out at the white hazey terminal. if the terminal moves more than 1/4 inch or so replace with the new upgraded version. Good luck.
What everybody should take away from Bryguy's post is that the fault codes are only a guide, not a diagnostic conclusion.

Panasonic describes the SC-PMX7 as a 'wireless hi-fi system' by virtue of its built-in Bluetooth connection, which allows you to stream music from your mobile gadgets and laptops, though it includes a CD drive, an iPod/iPhone dock, DAB/DAB /FM radio tuners and a USB port as well. Indeed, Panasonic calls it a 'high-end' system, but it's more mainstream than that. Unlike the similarly-priced Denon CEOL Piccolo and more expensive Naim UnitiQute 2, it has no Wi-Fi or networking support. It's wireless purely by dint of its Bluetooth connection.
The SC-PMX7 sports an unadventurous but undeniably attractive design. The control unit's conservative straight lines, black finish and prominent front panel controls are in the traditional micro system mould, a departure from the curvy minimalism of the Denon CEOL Piccolo.
But like the Denon, its compact, unobtrusive dimensions shouldn't give you any headaches when housing it in the living room, while the elegant brush-effect fascia and robust aluminium construction live up to its premium billing. The large volume dial is surrounded by a silver ring, which contrasts beautifully with the black finish.
The busy front panel has a faux two-tiered effect going on. The top 'half' houses a large LED panel and bass/treble dials, which many brands would have eschewed for the sake of minimalism but we love this old-school approach to tone control.
Meanwhile, the bottom half crams in the CD tray, playback/input selection buttons and a USB port. Hidden under a flap on top of the unit is an iPod/iPhone dock with a Lightning connector, which allows you to connect newer Apple devices like the iPhone 5, iPod Nano 7G and iPod touch 5G. Older models and iPads can be connected and controlled via the USB port.
The SC-PMX7DB is bundled with a pair of speakers, which are surprisingly well made for the money. The enclosures are solid and sturdy, and feature binding posts as opposed to the cheaper springclips you'd find on all-in-one home cinema systems. Their black box design is unremarkable but goes nicely with the main unit.Given how much Panasonic has already stuffed into this system, the sparse rear socketry comes as no great surprise. There's a set of analogue stereo inputs should you wish to hook up a TV or set-top box, a connector for the DAB radio aerial and speaker binding posts, but that's your lot. A digital audio input might have been useful, but this system's self-contained approach means you shouldn't need to connect external devices anyway.
Bluetooth v3.0 connectivity (with support for A2DP, AVRCP and GAVDP profiles) and an iPod dock are the headline acts, but DAB/DAB /FM tuners and music playback from USB drives are strong supporting acts. Panasonic's free Music Streaming App offers enhanced control when streaming via Bluetooth.
Disappointingly the system will only play MP3 via USB, ruling out hi-res formats like FLAC, ALAC and WAV – this really is a mainstream system.
There's also a selection of presets to play around with – Heavy, Soft, Clear, Vocal and Flat – plus a Surround mode and a D.Bass setting to boost low frequencies.
Power output from Panasonic's jitter-reducing LincsD-Amp (last heard on home cinema systems like the SC-BTT560) is rated at 120W. The driver array in the three-way speakers includes a 140mm Bamboo Charcoal PP woofer cone – which takes advantage of bamboo's light yet rigid properties – a 19mm dome tweeter and a 15mm Piezo super tweeter.
poor that you didn't have iPhone to hand to test its features. That's like not having a CD to check the player. Isn't it your job.
Takin' it back to the old school! Except for the docking station. Ha!
I bought one based on good reviews, but what I noticed all of a sudden when I played a CD is that once every four or so seconds the player gives an audible tick, like a clock. If the volume is low, it's easily audible. Not sure if this is part of package. Certainly my 10-year old Sony never gives a ticking sound, though of course the player makes some constant whirring, which this Panasonic also has. Not sure whether to return it and get my money back or to exchange it for another, if this is a fluke. Has anyone any idea/experience with this?

Target 3 Special Report: "Journey of Hope" Part One
We now begin the first segment of our two-part Target Three Special Report -- called "Journey of Hope."
It's a Wichita Falls man's World War II story ... but one that began in Nazi Germany.
Chief photographer Rick Scruggs and Katie Crosbie teamed up for this story ...
It was 1933 and Germany had a new leader ... a leader who never won a majority of the votes, but now had complete control over just about every aspect of people's lives.
"I was then 11 years old. So ... I didn't vote for Hitler. I never voted for Hitler once."
And yet, Walter Hohfeld would spend much of his life tangled in a web of circumstances spun by the dictator.
At 14, Hohfeld was sent to compulsory training camp ... where he was required to wear a "Hitler Youth" uniform.
"We worked most of the time at farms, but while we were in these camps, they tried to make Hitler's followers out of us, I'm sure. But they overdid."
Hohfeld says the propaganda was nonstop and overwhelming..
"Too much of it just couldn't stick. It was unreal. And then, my mom was not for this stuff. I remember my mother telling my oldest brother that if Daddy be alive, he wouldn't go for this stuff. That means he'd probably be in a concentration camp too. Because he would not ... he would not be forced into something he don't believe in."
In September of 1941, Hohfeld was drafted into the Armed Forces and sent to anti- aircraft artillery training. Then he was in France ... Belgium ... Germany ... & Italy, trying to shoot down the Allied war planes coming in ever increasing numbers.
"I must say, in all this time, we have shot at American & English airplanes. Way up there in the dark. And I might have shot at somebody here, his daddy or his uncle or grandpapa flyin' up there. And I hope he's not gonna hold it against me. I'm always afraid doing something wrong."
Hohfeld was stationed near the Auschwitz concentration camp in Poland until early 1945, when Russian troops approached. Hohfeld and his men fled to Czechloslovakia. And then, one day ...
"Everyone was on his own. We knew the war ended. Nobody cared anymore. We dropped our weapons, & my friend Moore & I walked at night, north/northwest."
Hohfeld and a friend headed toward the American lines.
"It was still dark, & cold. We came to a small creek. We thought about walking through -- it would have been the right thing to do -- but then we decided we'd walk down the river a little bit -- maybe there's a better way to get across. Yes. There was a bridge. But there also was a man with an automatic weapon. And when he said, 'Handeho, hands up' -- our hands were flying up. Because we knew our life was not worth five cents."
Hohfeld says armed Russians rounded up about two thousand German soldiers & made them march.
"There was no food. And then, we came to a little creek - not little, it was maybe 80, 100 feet wide, just the water was as clear as it could be. You see those flat rocks all shiny. And by that time, they knew they couldn't march us much longer. We hadn't had a drop of water in days. So, they let us -- turned us loose. And that thing was just -- they had many people with rifles ... So, as everybody got in there, I knelt right on the side of the river, put my cap - you know that funny cap -- & put my glasses in there, & then you don't have no water in days, you go like this, everybody was -- & I heard somebody step into those glasses - those big horn glasses ...
"I cursed at that guy! I can no longer repeat because I don't know! And as I was doing that, a uniformed arm reached down, & said, 'Here, take this. I got an extra pair.' I never saw him. I was stunned! Those glasses - I was thinking, 'What can I do without glasses? I don't know what I'm doing, I lose my eyesight.'
"Still today, I ask myself, 'Was that just luck?' You have to consider - I wore glasses since I was four years old. In my neighborhood, nobody wore glasses. No child. At that time, people didn't wear a whole lot of glasses."
Hohfeld says that one act of kindness renewed his faith and hope that he would somehow survive.
"When I was a prisoner, I prayed every evening & every morning." "What did you pray for?" "To get home again. And for the Lord to help my people at home. And all those poor, poor guys around me."
But Hohfeld would not get home again for a very long time. And when he did get home ... What he found would make him wonder if a better life could be found in the land of his former enemy.

Euro dollar exchange rate today (Wed 23/10): "A high probability that EURUSD will continue up towards 1.39 - 1.40"
A look at the forex markets at 14:00 on Wednesday the 23rd show the the euro dollar exchange rate is trading 0.13 pct lower at 0.6674.
The euro to pound exchange rate is meanwhile 0.35 pct higher at 0.8519.
Note: The above are spot market inter-bank quotes; your bank will add a spread to the figures at their own discretion. However, an independent FX provider will guarantee to undercut your bank's offer, thus delivering more currency. Please find out more.
The euro is retracing yesterday's advance
Today's rebound in the dollar rate appears to be the dominant theme on currency markets.
"As with the rest of the FX space, EURUSD has retraced yesterday's moves overnight, although overall the EUR has held up better against the USD than most other currencies. Without much on the calendar today, consolidation is likely the name of the game ahead of German/EZ PMIs tomorrow," says Shaun Osborne at TD Securities.
Meanwhile, initial results of the ECB bank stress test results were out overnight, but the only real take away is that they may take much longer than expected—up to another year.
Jyske Bank forecasting further gains for the euro dollar exchange rate
As the probability that the Fed will postpone its scaling down of QE increases, forex analysts at Jyske Bank have advised they will also postpone expectations of the coming USD strengthening.
"After yesterday's weak report, there is a high probability that EURUSD will continue up towards 139-140 over the period until the end of the year," says Leander Dreyer at Jyske Bank.
Dreyer has on several occasions emphasised that his expectations of a strengthening of USD depends very much on a self-sustaining recovery in the US in combination with the Fed's launch of scaling down of its most favourable monthly QE.
According to the analyst the reasons why the scaling down will result in a strengthening of USD are:
- yields in the US will begin to increase relative to the euro zone
- willingness to invest/investment flow will benefit the US
- due to the scaling down, less USD will be in circulation. The ECB will continue to pursue a MOST relaxed monetary policy for quite some time.

Reviews for Country-Style Casserole
"We first made this as is and loved it, we then decided to make it again and we used fresh instead of the frozen stuff. Let me tell you the taste will knock your socks off. We all liked this dish very much and we have made it several time already, both for us and for friends."
"Forget the carrots. They over power the dish and get mushy."
"Simple and tasty dinner."

2006 Buick LaCrosse Problems
RepairPal has identified the most common problems with the 2006 Buick LaCrosse based on complaints from actual vehicle owners. We'll tell you what the problem is and what it'll take to fix it.
You may be able to prevent transmission problems by servicing the transmission and inspecting the fluid every 30,000 miles. If the fluid is dark or burned then the transmission system should be completely flushed.
Door lock mechanisms not operating properly. Doors may not lock/unlock.
Replacement of faulty door lock actuator required for proper operation.
The high pressure power steering hose will commonly leak fluid; it should be replaced.
A Loose or worn gas cap may cause Check Engine Light to illuminate.
The steering may develop a clunk type noise from the upper intermediate steering shaft. Our technicians tell us that you should check with your local GM dealer to find out what the latest repair is for this condition.
Contaminated brake fluid can cause problems in the brake system and it should be flushed every 60,000 miles.
The 2005-2009 Buick LaCrosse is known to have issues with the EVAP system, a part of your emission control system.
The EVAP canister vent valve or valve solenoid wiring may fail causing illumination of the check engine light, setting code P0446, and problems filling the tank with fuel.
To correct the issue, the EVAP canister vent valve, solenoid, and wiring must be inspected. The most common fix is replacement of the wiring connector or replacement of the vent valve assembly.
The high pressure power steering hose will commonly leak fluid; it should be replaced.
The spark plugs should be replaced every 100,000 miles. Our technicians recommend replacing the spark plug wires also at this time.

Chose Modern Furniture Anchored by a clean-lined Parsons table (left unpolished to stand up to fingerprints), the dining room is both sophisticated and family friendly. Galvanized-metal French Tolix chairs designed in the 1930s and a long bench (which has been known to hold as many as six kids) provide some much needed flexibility and style.
Introduced One Bold Color Jen gave the otherwise neutral room a strong burst of energy by adding a pair of grass green velvet host chairs and lamps. The vibrant hue complements the use of blue in the kitchen, proving that carefully placed color can really pack a punch.
Kept the Accents to a Minimum To maintain a more modern aesthetic, Jen skipped traditional window treatments and a rug and edited the accessories for a pared-down look. "In a small space, less is usually more," she says.
Love it? Get it!

I have them and am just leaving them alone. My gyno says this is fine as long as they're not causing major problems. (She tends to frown on the surgical-type procedures because the fibroids grow back). My bleeding was MUCH worse when I was on the pill; going off it helped a lot.
I did have one of them partially removed once (myomectomy, I think they call it?). It's similar to hysteroscopy -- no incisions. But I really only did it because I was having day surgery, anyway, to have an ovarian cycst removed. I don't know how much of a difference it made, long-term, because going off the pill is really what stopped the bleeding. And the fibroids grew back.
They looked into the possibility of doing a uterine ablation for my bleeding, but I guess they can't do that if the fibroids are embedded in the uterine lining, as mine are.
I think there are a lot of other procedures/treatments that people try, though. I might if symptoms become bad enough. Good luck!
Wurly and proud!

The Best Obama Cameos in Comics
Since Barack Obama ascended to the highest office in the land, there's been a lot of joking about his comics collecting and political superheroics, and now every publisher in comics is scrambling to cash in on the Obama comics craze. From "Barack the Barbarian," a Conan parody where Obama fights the evil Boosh and Chainknee, to an alternate reality comic where he helps Chicago fend off an alien invasion, anything goes for comics cameos of the geek-in-chief. Check out our collection of the best (and worst) of the bunch.
soKe.flace('comics-obama_cameos', '645', '700'); var uid = new Date().getTime(); var flashProxy = new FlashProxy(uid, 'http://www.aolcdn.com/_media/modtools/kit_swfpublisher_javascriptflashgateway.swf'); var flashvars = {}; try { flashvars.lcId = uid; } catch (Exc) { }; try { flashvars.targetAds = 'comics-obama_cameos'; } catch (Exc) { }; try { flashvars.omniture_tracker = '0'; } catch (Exc) { }; try { flashvars.adrefresh_wrapper = '1'; } catch (Exc) { }; try { flashvars.appswfURL = soKe.fv('http://xml.channel.aol.com/xmlpublisher/fetch.v2.xml?option=expand_relative_urls&dataUrlNodes=uiConfig,feedConfig,entry&id=614582&pid=614581&uts=1243546556′); } catch (Exc) { }; if (typeof(screen_name) != 'undefined') try { flashvars.userName = screen_name; } catch (Exc) { }; var params = {}; try { params.wmode = 'opaque'; } catch (Exc) { }; try { params.menu = 'false'; } catch (Exc) { }; try { params.bgcolor = '#262525′; } catch (Exc) { }; try { params.quality = 'best'; } catch (Exc) { }; try { params.allowScriptAccess = 'always'; } catch (Exc) { }; try { params.allowFullScreen = 'true'; } catch (Exc) { }; var attributes = {}; try { attributes.id = 'outlet'; } catch (Exc) { }; top.exd_space.refresher.ads2Refresh(new Array( 'comics-obama_cameos', new Array('93301066′,'300′,'250′,'0′,'I','1′) )); top.exd_space.refresher.iFrm2Refresh(new Array( 'comics-obama_cameos', new Array('Placement_ID', '1368367'), new Array('Domain_ID', '994774') )); top.exd_space.refresher.mmx('comics-obama_cameos', 'http://www.aolcdn.com/_media/channels/ke_blank.html', "); swfobject.embedSWF('http://cdn.channel.aol.com/cs_feed_v1_6/csfeedwrapper.swf', 'comics-obama_cameos-swf', '645', '700', '9.0.115', 'http://www.aolcdn.com/ke/swfobject/expressinstall.swf', flashvars, params, attributes); top.exd_space.refresher.launcher( 'comics-obama_cameos',{ dynamicSlide:["], size:['456t'], photoNumber:['0′], title:['The Best Obama Cameos in Comics'], numimages:['13'], baseImageURL:['http://www.aolcdn.com/photogalleryassets/comics/614345/'], imageurl:['barack-the-barbarian-335×500.jpg'], credit:["], source:["], caption:['The Obama craze in comics has produced some brilliant — and insane — cameos by the President.

Not a Flash fan? Read more for an in-page presentation."Barack the Barbarian: Quest for the Treasure of Stimuli":
This "Conan the Barbarian" parody features Obama as well as a host of political analogs like Sorceress Hilaria and her demi-god trickster husband Biil, who help Barack fight against the Elephant Kingdom despot Boosh, his evil vizier Chainknee, the Old Warrior, and his companion Red Sara.
An alternate cover to "Barack the Barbarian," featuring evil vizier Chainknee shaking his wizened fist in the background. Inset: Villain Red Sara, clad only in her trademark wolf-skin.
"Drafted: One Hundred Days"
This alternate reality comic imagines Barack Obama in a universe where his ascent to greatness was interrupted by an alien invasion, and the former community organizer must help rally a shell-shocked Chicago back to its feet. Oh, and in this world, Obama is now a mute.
Kyle Baker's Obama Graphic Novel:
While working on his upcoming HarperCollins graphic novel about Obama, cartoonist Kyle Baker said, "The president's life story is truly inspirational, and through my research I came to understand that it's his positive attitude that makes him successful. Most people who grow up surrounded by poverty with no father let the experience make them cynical and pessimistic. This crazy guy saw no good reason to believe his past was anything but past. I realize now that if a guy like him could make it through Harvard and become president, I can attain any goal I focus on with faith."
"Youngblood #8"
Obama doesn't just show up for a meet-and-greet in this Image superhero comic — he uses his presidential powers to reinstate the team and hand-picks the members himself. Some of whom have way more pouches than any human being could reasonably need on their bodies. Oh, and he also totes around a gun that apparently makes his left hand disappear.
Famed comic book painter Alex Ross — who once painted George W. Bush as a vampire attacking the Statue of Liberty — gives us this image of Obama as a secret Superman-style hero, now available online as a print and t-shirt.
"Amazing Spider-Man #583"
Everybody's jumping on the bandwagon now, but the Obama cameo that got the most press was his appearance in an "Amazing Spider-Man" backstory, where an evil shapeshifter tried to take Obama's place and Obama has to prove his identity by playing a game of hoops. Inset: Vigilante fist-bump.
"Savage Dragon #137"
The first comic to feature Obama "Savage Dragon" kicked off the craze when creator Erik Larsen publicly endorsed Obama through his fictional dragonman superhero.
"Savage Dragon #145"
Following Obama's ascension and the media attention to the "Spider-Man" comic, "Savage Dragon" returned to the Obama well in a comic where Savage Dragon is helping run security for Obama, who tells the hero that his previous endorsement in #137 helped him win the presidency.
This variant cover for "Savage Dragon #145″ features President Obama punching Osama Bin Laden in the face while holding a flag in his left hand. But is it better than Frank Miller's abandoned "Batman vs. Al Qaeda" concept where the Dark Knight was supposed to kick the crap out of the infamous terrorist? Hard to say.
"Final Crisis #7"
In the last DC Comics megacrossover, "Final Crisis," the opening scene of the final book — scripted before Obama's win — features an alternate DC Universe where a black American president is secretly Superman.
"Army of Darkness: Ash Saves Obama"
If it hadn't already, this would be where the Obama in comics craze started to get out of control. Ash, the hero of the film "The Evil Dead" who often has a chainsaw for a hand, saves Obama from a horde of rampaging undead demons. What's next, Barack Obama vs. Vampires? Actually, googling reveals that the online musical "Barackula" has that covered.
"Puppy Power: Bo Obama"
In what will likely be looked back upon as the height of the Obama comics craze, Obama's freaking dog got his own comic, with no less than two different covers featuring the presidential Portuguese Water Dog romping around the White House lawn and wearing a Hawaiian lei.
