Days in DhulHijah [[-3rd Outing-]]

 Days in DhulHijah [[-3rd Outing-]] ------------------ بسم الله الرحمان الرجيم This year, Dhul-Hijjah will begin very soon – In Shaa Allah. So as Muslims, we should welcome the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah with the same excitement as we do the last ten days of Ramadan. This golden chance should be used to earn uncountable rewards by increasing our acts of worship. Conversely, Doing wrong in this month increases the degree of sin more than the same act in other months. So the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah will come and go, just like the days of your life. Please use them in the highest and best possible way. Now, Let me tell you about something powerful – something that can make orphans and widows UNCONSCIOUSLY raise their hands for you on the Day of Arafah. But, First, understand how special Arafat day is especially if you fast on the Day of Arafah. If you cannot fast all ten days, try to fast on just the Day of Arafah – the 9th of Dhul-Hijjah. Just as Laylatul Qadr is the most bl...

THE TREE OF ZAQQUM

 FAJR REMINDER: THE TREE OF ZAQQUM By: Umm Affān Dhū al-Qa'dah 24, 1447 (12-May-2026) Just as the people of Paradise will enjoy their foods and drinks, the inhabitants of Hell will also have foods and drinks prepared for them. However, their provision will be a source of severe torment and punishment. Among the foods of the people of Hell is the dreadful tree known as Zaqqum. Describing it, Allāh says: “Verily, it is a tree that springs out of the bottom of Hell-fire, The shoots of its fruit-stalks are like the heads of Shayāṭīn (devils).” [Sūrah Aṣ-Ṣāffāt (37): 64-65] The tree of Zaqqum is not a blessing or nourishment; rather, it is a painful punishment for the inmates of Hell. Due to unbearable hunger, they will be forced to eat from it, despite its horrific nature. Its fruits will boil inside their stomachs like molten oil and scalding liquid. Allāh says: “Verily, the tree of Zaqqum, will be the food of the sinners, like boiling oil, it will boil in the bellies, like the boilin...

Chapter Ten: The Truth We Never Asked About

 Nīkah Written by Qādr, Tested by Genotype Chapter Ten: The Truth We Never Asked About After everything we had gone through, after the fear, the pain, and the uncertainty that surrounded our pregnancies and deliveries, we thought perhaps the worst had already passed. We believed that whatever difficulties had come were temporary, that with time, things would settle, and life would return to a place of calm. But we did not know that more was coming. It had been exactly two weeks since I and my friends gave birth. Those days were meant to be filled with recovery, bonding with our babies, and adjusting to motherhood. On the surface, everything seemed to be moving forward, but deep within, something did not feel right. At first, it was subtle. Something small. Something easy to overlook. My baby was not feeding properly. It started with slight changes, moments where he would refuse to eat as much as expected, moments where he seemed weaker than he should have been. I tried to convince ...

Chapter Nine: When Joy Was Touched by Trial

 Nīkah Written by Qādr, Tested by Genotype Chapter Nine: When Joy Was Touched by Trial It had been over a month since we got married, and everything in our lives was moving with a calmness that felt almost perfect. Our homes were filled with peace, our hearts were content, and the people around us shared in our happiness. Family members visited often, friends checked on us, and every day carried a sense of gratitude that we could not ignore. Marriage had not taken away our joy; instead, it had deepened it. We were adjusting, learning, and growing into our new roles with a sincerity that made everything feel natural. Our husbands treated us with care, our families supported us, and we, the four of us, remained as close as ever despite living in different homes. Everything felt right. Until the first test arrived. It started with Sajidah. One afternoon, she called us with a voice that carried something we had never heard before. It was not just excitement; it was something deeper, so...

Chapter Eight: The Sweetness of a New Beginning

 Nīkah Written by Qādr, Tested by Genotype Chapter Eight: The Sweetness of a New Beginning The first days of living as a married couple were unlike anything I had ever imagined in my life. It was a feeling that could not be fully described, a mixture of peace, excitement, and a quiet sense of fulfillment that settled deep within the heart. Everything felt new, yet comforting at the same time, as if I had stepped into a life that had been prepared for me long before I arrived. Waking up each morning carried a different meaning now. The awareness that I was no longer in my parents’ home, that I now had a new role and a new responsibility, brought both reflection and gratitude. Julaybib treated me with a kindness that made the transition easier than I had expected. His words were gentle, his actions thoughtful, and his presence brought a calmness that reassured me in moments where I felt overwhelmed. A few days after the marriages, we decided to visit each other, just as we had always...

Chapter Seven: The Day Our Names Were Joined

 Nīkah Written by Qādr, Tested by Genotype Chapter Seven: The Day Our Names Were Joined It was Friday, the day of the Nīkah, a day that felt like it had been written long before we were even born. The morning arrived with a calmness that carried both peace and anticipation, as if the entire world understood the importance of what was about to take place. The air was fresh, the sky was clear, and everything around us seemed to reflect a sense of blessing. From the early hours of the day, our homes were filled with life. There was movement everywhere, voices overlapping, laughter echoing through the walls, and the sound of preparations being completed with careful attention. It was no longer just a plan or a discussion; it had become reality. We were dressed as brides. Sitting side by side, we looked at each other with expressions that carried a mixture of disbelief and happiness. The same girls who once ran around without a care in the world were now wrapped in garments that symboli...

Chapter Six: Two Nights Before Forever

 Nīkah Written by Qādr, Tested by Genotype Chapter Six: Two Nights Before Forever As we all expected and waited for what felt like the first true happiness of our lives, sleep became something distant and almost unnecessary. It was just two days before the marriages, and the excitement within us refused to settle. Our hearts were too full, our minds too active, and our emotions too overwhelming for rest to find its way to us. Sajidah, Tasliyah, Sawberah, and I gathered together that night, just like we had done many times before, yet this time felt completely different. It was no longer just another evening of laughter under familiar circumstances; it was the final stretch before everything changed. The reality that we were about to become wives had finally settled deeply within us, and it brought with it a mixture of joy, nervousness, and disbelief. We sat close to each other, surrounded by the quiet of the night, yet our voices filled the space with endless conversation. No matte...

Chapter Five: When the Test Arrives at Its Perfect Time

 Nīkah Written by Qādr, Tested by Genotype Chapter Five: When the Test Arrives at Its Perfect Time When Allah tests a person, it is never random, and it is never without purpose. He chooses the time with absolute precision, a moment that aligns perfectly with everything in a person’s life, whether they realize it or not. Sometimes, that moment comes when life feels stable, when the heart feels secure, and when everything seems to be moving in the right direction. It is at that point, when comfort settles deeply within the soul, that the test arrives, not to destroy, but to reveal, to purify, and to reshape. Looking back, I realized that all those years we spent building our lives, nurturing our friendships, and developing our relationships were filled with ease. We laughed, we planned, and we enjoyed every moment of what we believed was a clear and beautiful path ahead. We spoke about love as if it was enough to carry us through everything, and we believed that sincerity alone woul...

Chapter Four: A Love That Carried the Weight of Dignity

 Nīkah Written by Qādr, Tested by Genotype Chapter Four: A Love That Carried the Weight of Dignity All those years passed in a way that felt as though everything had already been written for us long before we understood what was happening. It was as if we were destined to walk the paths we found ourselves on, each step leading us closer to moments that would define our lives. What began as simple friendships and youthful innocence slowly transformed into something far deeper, something that carried meaning, responsibility, and purpose. The love stories that the four of us built were not ordinary. They were not the kind that thrived on secrecy, recklessness, or the desire to impress others. Instead, they were rooted in the values we had been raised upon, shaped by the Deen that guided our hearts and our actions. In a society where love had often lost its direction, where relationships were taken lightly and modesty was overlooked, what we had stood as something different. It was not...

Chapter Three: A Love That Felt Like a Du‘ā

 Nīkah Written by Qādr, Tested by Genotype Chapter Three: A Love That Felt Like a Du‘ā’ It was a very breezy morning. The air was cool and calm, and everything around me felt unusually peaceful. The kind of morning where the wind gently brushed against your skin, carrying with it a sense of quiet comfort. The sky was soft and clear, and the world seemed to be moving at a slower pace than usual. I sat by the window in my room, watching the trees sway lightly as the breeze passed through them. There was something about that morning that felt different, though I could not explain why. At that time, I never truly understood what love was. I had seen it in others, heard people talk about it, and even watched my friends experience it in their own ways. But for me, it had always felt distant, almost unreal. I believed in it, but I had never felt it deeply enough to call it my own. Until that morning. That was when Julaybib entered my life. He was not a stranger in the sense that I had nev...

TAFSEER OF SUURAH AL-MUTAFFIFIN (Qur’an 83) continues

 *_DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER_* Yaum al-ithnayn | 24th day of Dhul-Qa'dah, 1447 AH | Monday, 11th May 2026. *_TAFSEER OF SUURAH AL-MUTAFFIFIN (Qur’an 83) continues_*. BismilLah.  Let's continue with our studies of suurah Al-Mutaffifin.  Verses 7–9. The Record of the Wicked كَلَّا إِنَّ كِتَابَ الْفُجَّارِ لَفِي سِجِّينٍ وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا سِجِّينٌ كِتَابٌ مَّرْقُومٌ 7. No! Indeed, the record of the wicked is in Sijjīn. 8. And what can make you know what Sijjīn is? 9. It is a written record. Commentary Sijjīn is understood as: A prison-like place deep beneath the earth. Or a register containing the deeds of the wicked. Their evil deeds are permanently recorded with precision. Nothing escapes ALLAH’S knowledge. This teaches that sins are not forgotten, even when people hide them from society. To be continued tomorrow in Shaa ALLAH. *_May ALLAH Azzawajal keep guiding and protecting us from any satanic influences_*. Aameen

Days in DhulHijah [[-2nd Outing-]]

 Days in DhulHijah [[-2nd Outing-]] ------------------ بسم الله الرحمان الرجيم A huge golden chance is almost here. The first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah start in just a few days, if Allah wills. This is one of the biggest opportunities of the whole year. Why are these days so special? Allah (swt) speaks about them in the Quran. And the Prophet (peace be upon him) told us they are the best days for good deeds. Think about Ramadan. Maybe you feel you didn’t do your best. Maybe you missed some chances. Don’t cry over that now. Allah (swt) is so merciful that He gives you these ten days to make up for any shortcomings. This is your second chance! Grab it with both hands. My People, Doing wrong in these days is much worse than doing the same wrong in other months. So guard your tongue. Guard your hands. Now, Let me tell you about giving sadaqah every day in these ten days. Allah (swt) love people who gives sadaqah frequently especially those who helps or care for orphans and bring them joy...

IN HIS LEFT HAND

 FAJR REMINDER: …IN HIS LEFT HAND By: Umm Affān Dhū al-Qa'dah 23, 1447 (11-May-2026) According to Allāh’s Decree, the one destined for Hell will receive his Record in his left hand from behind his back while his hand is bent backwards. Allāh says: “But whoever is given his record behind his back, He will invoke (for his) destruction, And he shall enter a blazing fire, and made to taste its burning.” [Sūrah Al-Inshiqāq (84): 10-12] In the worldly life, the disbeliever lived joyfully among his people, heedless of the consequences of his disbelief and evil deeds. He never feared the terrible future awaiting him nor reflected on what lay ahead. However, that temporary happiness will eventually turn into endless sorrow and regret. When he is handed his Record, overwhelming remorse will consume him. He will long for a death that is never followed by resurrection or life again, even though death had once been the thing he hated most in the world. Allāh says: “But as for him who will be gi...

Offering Udhiyah/Qurbaani for the Prophet ﷺ on Eid al-Adh’haa?

 🔺 *Offering Udhiyah/Qurbaani for the Prophet ﷺ on Eid al-Adh’haa?*🔺 ❓ *QUESTION*❓ *Is it allowed for me to offer a sacrifice on behalf of the Prophet ﷺ on Eid al-Adhaa*❓ 🌿 *ANSWER*🌿 🔺It is *NOT proven* from the Qur’aan and/or authentic Sunnah to offer a sacrifice especially for the PROPHET ﷺ.  That is something that’s NOT PROVEN from the actions or instructions of the Prophet ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ NEVER taught us to do that although he ﷺ taught us EVERYTHING we need as far as doing good deeds is concerned.  Also the Sahaabah NEVER sacrificed a qurbaani on behalf of the Prophet ﷺ.  If it was good to do that, they would have definitely done that.  But they didn't.  So if they didn’t do it then we shouldn’t be doing it either.   🍃 The scholars said: “It is not prescribed to offer or give the udhiyah (qurbaani) on behalf of the Prophet ﷺ because that was not narrated from any of the Sahaabah, despite their perfect love for him and their perfect eage...
