Let's continue with our studies of suuratul Maauun. 1. Treat the Vulnerable with Honor. Orphans, widows, refugees, the elderly. Supporting them strengthens their eemaan.  2. Feed & Support the Poor Even encouraging others counts. Charity is not just money, it’s also caring.  3. Improve Quality of Prayer. Let's Pray on time. Focus with humility (khushūʿ). Avoid rushing or showing off 4. Checking Our Intentions: Ask: Am I doing this for ALLAH Azzawajal sake or for people to see and praise me as a good person? 5. Never Underestimate Small Good Deeds: Smiling, Lending items, Helping neighbors Small kindnesses protect faith. Let's note that; “True Islam is not only in the mosque, but in mercy, humility, and everyday kindness.” Suurat al-Maauun warns us that prayer alone does not save us. Islam demands, Sincere...

AN EVIL TEMPTATION

 FAJR REMINDER: AN EVIL TEMPTATION By: Umm ‘Affān Rajab 14, 1447 (4-January-2026) The caravan's men, who had purchased Yūsuf later sold him to the Chief Minister of Egypt, known in the Qur'ān as Al-‘Azīz. He held a prestigious position as an officer responsible for the Egyptian treasury. Allah states: وَقَالَ الَّذِي اشْتَرَاهُ مِن مِّصْرَ لِامْرَأَتِهِ أَكْرِمِي مَثْوَاهُ عَسَىٰ أَنْ يَنفَعَنَا أَوْ نَتَّخِذَهُ وَلَدًا وَكَذَٰلِكَ مَكَّنَّا لِيُوسُفَ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلِنُعَلِّمَهُ مِن تَأْوِيلِ الْأَحَادِيثِ وَاللَّهُ غَالِبٌ عَلَىٰ أَمْرِهِ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ “And he (the man) from Egypt who bought him said to his wife: ‘Make his stay comfortable; maybe he will profit us or we shall adopt him as a son.’ Thus did We establish Yūsuf (Joseph) in the land, that We might teach him the interpretation of events. And Allāh has full power and control over His affairs, but most men know not.” [Sūrah Yūsuf (12) Verse 21] Allāh highlights the blessings He conferr...

A Message 4 You* [[--- Part 24 ---]]

 *A Message 4 You* [[--- Part 24 ---]] ------------------ بسم الله الرحمان الرجيم Imagine a day where there is no night, no cool breeze, no water, and no shade. The sun is not in the sky. It is right above your head, closer than you can imagine. The heat is like nothing on earth. Everyone who ever lived is there. And everyone is running, trying to find a spot to hide from the heat. But there is no spot. There is no shade. There is no escape. On that day, you will sweat. You will sweat from the terrible heat. And your sins will decide how much you sweat. A small sin, a little sweat. Many sins, a river of sweat. People will be drowning in their own sweat because of the wrong they did. It will be a day of pure fear and regret. But. On that terrible, hot, frightening day… there will be one Shade. One shelter. The Shade of Allah, the Most Merciful. And under that Shade will be special people. Safe. Cool. At peace. Who are they? The Prophet (pbuh) said, “There are seven whom Allah will s...

Chapter Six The Jealous Wives (Continuation)

 Chapter Six  The Jealous Wives (Continuation) As time passed, Ameera went through more hardship than she ever imagined. She had no one to lean on. Her husband was often away from home because of work, leaving early in the morning and returning late at night. Inside the house, Ameera was left alone with all the responsibilities. She worked endlessly—cleaning, cooking, washing, caring for the children—while the other wives went out for their jobs and returned tired but free from household burdens. Many days, Ameera felt like a servant in her own home. Her body ached, her hands were always rough, and her heart was heavy. Yet she never complained. She reminded herself that Allah sees even the smallest effort done in silence. She chose strength over bitterness and patience over anger. Time moved on, and then Allah tested the household again in a different way. Sakina, who had once lost her child, became pregnant again. This time, fear filled her heart. Memories of her loss haunted...

Chapter Six The Jealous wives

 Chapter Six  The Jealous wives  Maikudi became completely worn out by everything that was happening in his home. Every single day came with a new quarrel, new accusations, new tears. His heart was heavy, his mind restless, and his body tired. No matter how hard he tried to be fair, no matter how many rules he set, peace refused to stay. At last, he decided that the matter had grown beyond him alone. One evening, he gathered courage and said, “This problem is bigger than me. I will call our families. Maybe when elders speak, hearts will soften.” Messages were sent to everyone. Parents, uncles, aunties, elders, and respected relatives from both his side and the wives’ families came together. The house was filled with people, but instead of comfort, the air was tense and cold. Ameera sat quietly at the edge of the room, her eyes lowered. Sakina sat upright, her face filled with sorrow. Maryam sat beside her, nodding gently as if already agreeing with everything Sakina would...

Chapter Five The Jealous Wives (Continuation)

 Chapter Five The Jealous Wives (Continuation) From that day onward, Sakina’s heart hardened completely against Ameera. What had once been grief slowly transformed into deep hatred. Every memory of her lost child turned into anger, and that anger needed a target. Ameera became that target. Ameera, despite all the pain, tried to humble herself even more. She lowered her gaze, softened her words, and tried to approach Sakina with calmness. One afternoon, she gathered courage and spoke gently. “Sakina,” Ameera said quietly, “for the sake of Allah, forgive me. I swear before Allah that I had nothing to do with what happened to your child.” Sakina turned sharply. “Stop pretending,” she replied coldly. “Your words mean nothing to me.” Ameera’s voice trembled. “I am innocent. Even if you don’t believe me, Allah knows.” Sakina laughed bitterly. “Allah will judge, but until then, I will make your life miserable.” Those words settled heavily in Ameera’s heart. Sakina began to think of new wa...

A Message 4 You* [[--- Part 23 ---]]

 *A Message 4 You* [[--- Part 23 ---]] ------------------ بسم الله الرحمان الرجيم Think of your marriage as a special garden you are building for the sake of Allah (swt). Your kindness to your husband is not just for him. It is a seed you plant for the sake of Allah (swt). Each of these seeds grows in Paradise. Ask yourself this one question: "If I left this world today, would my goodness leave a hole in my husband's heart that no one else can fill?" This is not about being a slave. No! This is about being a smart investor for your soul. Look at the example of Nana Khadijah (RA). She was the first wife of the Prophet (PBUH). She was his comfort, his business partner, his first believer. She gave him everything. And what was her reward? At the end of her life, the Angel Jibreel came with a message from Allah HIMSELF. The message was this: She has a palace of shining pearls waiting for her in Paradise. A palace with no noise, no tiredness, and no sadness. Forever. Why? Beca...

A Message 4 You* [[--- Part 22 ---]]

 *A Message 4 You* [[--- Part 22 ---]] ------------------ بسم الله الرحمان الرجيم Brother, look at your marriage. Look at your wife. Many of us treat our wife like a stranger we do not like. We look at her mistakes. We remember what she does wrong. We forget her good things. We forget her good side. But look at the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him. He is the best of creation. Yet, he experienced troubles in his home. His wives sometimes disagreed and it hurt him to the extent that he stayed away from his house for 29 days. His close companions also had troubles in their marriages. Think about this. If the best men, married to the best women, had problems... who are we? How can we expect our wife to be perfect? Allah (swt) allowed these to happen not because prophet's wives were bad wives. No! It happened to serve as a lesson for us, the husbands. Allah showed us that every marriage has tests. My brother, Your wife, whom you call a disappointment, is not 100% bad. Please, remembe...

BLESSINGS ON FRIDAY

 FAJR REMINDER: BLESSINGS ON FRIDAY By: Umm ‘Affān Rajab 12, 1447 (2-January-2026) All praise is due to Allāh, and it's Friday once more! This day is dedicated to worship, the remembrance of Allāh, and sending prayers upon our beloved Prophet (ﷺ), who has enlightened us about its significance. He (ﷺ) said: “Whoever takes a bath on Friday, purifies himself as much as he can, then uses his (hair) oil or perfumes himself with the scent of his house, then proceeds for the Jumu’ah prayer and does not separate two persons sitting together (in the Masjid), then prays as much as (Allāh has) written for him and then remains silent while the Imām is delivering the Khutbah, his sins in-between the present and the last Friday would be forgiven.” [Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 883] Many may view these actions as simple tasks. Indeed! However, how many actually prepare and leave early for the Jumu’ah prayer, seeking Allāh’s Forgiveness? It's important to recognize that the ability to perform these ...

TAFSEER OF Qur’an 107 SUURATUL MAAUUN, WITH CONTEXT, COMMENTARY, MEANINGS, and PRACTICAL LESSONS WE CAN APPLY IN OUR DAILY LIFE

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yaumul Jumuat, 13th day of Rajab, 1447AH, Friday, 2nd January, 2026. *_TAFSEER OF Qur’an 107 SUURATUL MAAUUN, WITH CONTEXT, COMMENTARY, MEANINGS, and PRACTICAL LESSONS WE CAN APPLY IN OUR DAILY LIFE_*. BismilLahir Rahmanir Raheem.  AlhamdulilLah for granting us the opportunity to be part of this blessed day of the week. We praise HIM for HIS guidance and blessings. We send our sincere salutations to our beloved Messenger of ALLAH sallallahu alaihi wasallam.  Let's start studying suuratul Maauun (Qur’an 107). Main Theme: True faith is shown through sincerity in worship and compassion toward people. This suurah was revealed during the Makkan period when the Quraysh outwardly claimed religion but lacked mercy and social responsibility. Orphans were oppressed. The poor were ignored Prayer was performed as a display, not sincere devotion. ALLAH Azzawajal exposes hypocrisy, teaching that religion is not rituals alone, but moral responsibility and kindne...

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yaum Al-khamis, 12th day of Rajab, 1447AH, Thursday, 1st January, 2026. *_PRACTICAL LESSONS FROM SUURATUL KAWTHAR FOR OUR Daily Life_*. BismilLah.  Alhamdulillah, we've been studying this suurah for the past 3 days. Let's glance through some practical Lessons for Our Daily Life; 1. Do Not Be Broken by Insults or Loss. When people belittle you, remember: ALLAH Azzawajal sees what they do and HE honours whom HE wills. 2. Respond to Hardship with Worship. The Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam was told: Pray, not complain. ➡️ When facing stress, grief, or injustice: Increase ṣalah, Recite Qur’an regularly, Make dua, Give charity etc 3. Be Thankful in Action, Not Words Only. Pray on time. Share what ALLAH has given you, Help others quietly 4. True Legacy Is Faith and Good Deeds. Children, wealth, fame may fade, but faith, prayer, and sincerity endure. 5. Trust ALLAH'S Justice. You do not need to defend yourself against every insult. ALLAH Azzawajal defe...

HE WAS CHEAPLY SOLD

 FAJR REMINDER: HE WAS CHEAPLY SOLD By: Umm ‘Affān Rajab 11, 1447 (1-January-2026) In the wake of the false news surrounding Yūsuf’s death, Prophet Ya’qūb (‘Alayhi Salām) rose to the occasion by turning to Allāh, the One from Whom help is sought in times of patience, and placing his trust in Allāh amidst the malicious plots against him and his son. Inside the dark well, submerged in total darkness and an unsettling silence, Yūsuf (‘Alayhi Salām) managed to find a stone edge to cling to. What thoughts might have crossed his mind in such a dire situation? What fate awaited him? This moment represented a significant test from Allāh, designed to nurture courage and patience within his servant. While Yūsuf was enduring this ordeal, a caravan was on its way to Egypt. Allāh states: وَجَاءَتْ سَيَّارَةٌ فَأَرْسَلُوا وَارِدَهُمْ فَأَدْلَىٰ دَلْوَهُ قَالَ يَا بُشْرَىٰ هَٰذَا غُلَامٌ وَأَسَرُّوهُ بِضَاعَةً وَاللَّهُ عَلِيمٌ بِمَا يَعْمَلُونَ “And there came a caravan of travelers; they sent t...

THEY EXECUTED THEIR PLAN

 FAJR REMINDER: THEY EXECUTED THEIR PLAN (Yūsuf was thrown into a Well) By: Umm ‘Affān Rajab 10, 1447 (31-December-2025) The brothers of Prophet Yūsuf (‘Alayhi Salām) agreed to separate him from their father. Undoubtedly, this was a vicious crime that involved cutting the ties of kinship, being unkind to their father, and transgressing towards Yūsuf (‘Alayhi Salām).  Indeed, the ties of kinship, the bonds of blood and family, are sacred in Islām. They are not mere ties of convenience, of duty, but ties of the heart, of the soul, of the very essence of our being. Thus, it's sacrosanct that we maintain it and not sever it. Allāh warns: وَالَّذِينَ يَنقُضُونَ عَهْدَ اللَّهِ مِن بَعْدِ مِيثَاقِهِ وَيَقْطَعُونَ مَا أَمَرَ اللَّهُ بِهِ أَن يُوصَلَ وَيُفْسِدُونَ فِي الْأَرْضِ أُولَٰئِكَ لَهُمُ اللَّعْنَةُ وَلَهُمْ سُوءُ الدَّارِ “And those who break the Covenant of Allāh, after its ratification, and sever that which Allāh has commanded to be joined (i.e. they sever the bond of kinshi...
