FRIDAY SERIES *

 *FRIDAY SERIES *🌸 by Asma bint Shameem 🌿 *Yet another Friday* 🌿 So…. It’s another Friday. We will perform ghusl. We will attend the Jumu’ah prayer. We will read Surah al-Kahf. Then, before we know it, it will be another Friday. Time is flying. It seems like yesterday but a whole week has passed since last Friday. Similar is our life. Hours turn into days. Days turn into weeks. Weeks turn into months. And months turn into years. *BLINK*... *Before we know it, our time is up.* Yes that’s right. Just like that. In a flash of a second.  🍃al-Hasan al-Basree said: “Son of Adam! You are nothing but a number of days. With each passing day a part of you has also gone.” 🍃And he also said: "The world is but three days: As for yesterday, it has vanished along with all that was in it. As for tomorrow, you may never see it. As for today, it is yours, so *work* on it." 📌*Ask yourself this:* 🔺*How did I spend my time from last Friday to today?* 🔺*Have I improved my relationship with

SIGNS OF ALLAH WITHIN US

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawmul Jumuat, 1st day of Rabeeu ath-thaani, 1446AH (Friday, 4th October 2024). *_SIGNS OF ALLAH WITHIN US_*. BismilLah.  AlhamdulilLah for granting us the opportunity to be part of this blessed day of the week. We human beings must appreciate our Creator for what HE has done for us. To appreciate ALLAH, our CREATOR. We must learn more of HIS signs around us or within us. Wait till you lose one of your eyes, legs, hands etc to know and appreciate ALLAH more.  ALLAH says in Qur'an 30:21 going  وَمِنۡ ءَايَٰتِهِۦٓ أَنۡ خَلَقَ لَكُم مِّنۡ أَنفُسِكُمۡ أَزۡوَٰجًا لِّتَسۡكُنُوٓاْ إِلَيۡهَا وَجَعَلَ بَيۡنَكُم مَّوَدَّةً وَرَحۡمَةًۚ إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَٰتٍ لِّقَوۡمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ  And among HIS signs is that HE created for you from yourselves mates that you may find tranquillity in them; and HE placed between you affection and mercy. Indeed, in that are signs for a people who give thought. ALLAH says وَمِنْ ءَايَـتِهِ (And among HIS signs), which speak of HIS

The dignity of friday.

 The dignity of friday.  Alhamdulillah, lets praise and thank Allah for making us witness this day.  Friday is the best day of the week.  Allah says,  Al-Jumu'ah 62:9 O you who have believed, when [the adhān] is called for the prayer on the day of Jumuʿah [Friday], then proceed to the remembrance of Allāh and leave trade. That is better for you, if you only knew. As reported in hadith,  Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: The best day on which the sun has risen is Friday; on it Adam was created, on it he wasmade to enter Paradise, on it he. was expelled from it. Sahih Muslim 854.

And the last hour will take place on no day other than Friday. Sahih Muslim 854 b.  It is sunnah to bath ghusl and chew siwak and wear the best apparel for jum'

 *Learn from Hafsah* [[--Second Outing--]] ------------------------------ بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم Hafsah (r.a.) was the daughter of Umar ibn al-Khattab (ra). Became widow after the death of her husband. Her father (Umar ibn al-Khattab) felt sad when Abubakr and Uthman (ra) turned down his request to marry Hafsah.. Umar ibn al-Khattab rushed down to report them to the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him. The Prophet smiled😊, and said, *"Hafsah will marry one better than Abubakr and Uthman"* My People! Every challenges of life can be a very hard nuts to crack and serve as disappointments, but in Islam, every disappointments is truly a blessing in disguise. Servants of Allah! You lost your spouse either through divorce or death, you lost your relationship which you think will result to marriage, you lost your job or something so dearest to you, etc etc.... All these happened for good reasons and will always be a blessing in disguise, BUT if (1) you believe sincerely in Allah (2)

Today's Beautiful Hadith is about True Dreams

 Today's Beautiful Hadith is about True Dreams Narrated `Aisha (RA): Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said (to me), "You were shown to me in a dream. An angel brought you to me, wrapped in a piece of silken cloth, and said to me, 'This is your wife.' I removed the piece of cloth from your face, and there you were. I said to myself. 'If it is from Allah, then it will surely be.'" (Sahih al-Bukhari 5125, Book 67, Hadith 61) This is such an inspiring Hadith that shows the amazing dream of the Prophet (SAW) where he saw his future wife.

WE ARE STRANGERS OR VISITORS ON EARTH, LETS STRIVE TO RETURN TO OUR CREATOR NOT TO SATAN

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm Al-Khamis, 30th day of RabeeulAwwal, 1446AH (Thursday, 3rd October 2024). *_WE ARE STRANGERS OR VISITORS ON EARTH, LETS STRIVE TO RETURN TO OUR CREATOR NOT TO SATAN_*. BismilLah.  We all know that we are on earth like a visitor travelling , so let's not waste our time knowing we will soon continue our journey to our final abode. We were created weak and will return to account to ALLAH. The longer the son of Adam lives, the more he becomes weak after being strong and incapable after being able and active.  ALLAH says in Qur'an 36:68 وَمَنْ نُعَمِّرْهُ نُنَكِّسْهُ فِي الْخَلْقِ And he whom ALLAH grant long life, ALLAH reverse him in creation. This is like the Ayah: اللَّهُ الَّذِى خَلَقَكُمْ مِّن ضَعْفٍ ثُمَّ جَعَلَ مِن بَعْدِ ضَعْفٍ قُوَّةٍ ثُمَّ جَعَلَ مِن بَعْدِ قُوَّةٍ ضَعْفاً وَشَيْبَةً يَخْلُقُ مَا يَشَأءُ وَهُوَ الْعَلِيمُ الْقَدِيرُ ALLAH is HE WHO created you in (a state of) weakness, then gave you strength after weakness, then after strengt

 *Learn from Hafsah* [[--- First Outing ---]] ------------------------------ بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم Hafsah (r.a.) was the daughter of Umar ibn al-Khattab (r.a.). She had been married to someone else, but was widowed at age eighteen. Umar asked both Abu Bakr and Uthman, 1 by 1 if they would like to marry her, but they both declined😳. Yes, because they knew that the Prophet had expressed an interest in marrying her. When Umar went to the Prophet (pbuh) to complain about their behavior, the Prophet smiled😊, and said, *"Hafsah will marry one better than Abubakr and Uthman"*. Umar was startled and then realized that it was the Prophet was asking for her hand in marriage. He was overcome with delight. They were married just after the battle of Badr, when Hafsah was about twenty years old and the Prophet as fifty-six. LESSONS: *Every disappointment a blessing* Life is all about give and take, this is the natural course of the earth which we have no power over. Life as it is and al
