 *Remain Focused* [[---- Part 7 ----]] ------------------ بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم Dua is that act which ‘connects’ the slave to his Master. Especially in this blessed month of Ramadan, Dua, according to a Hadith, has the unique ability to change destiny. 📚(Tirmidhi). So, Instead of losing your membership card as a Muslim by going to verify about why this and that happened or engaging in useless demonic Sadaqah prescribed by the fortune-tellers or so-called Mallams or Alfas, one of the best approach to every problem or life challenges is Du'a making. But, Why do some du’as (supplications) remain unanswered? *Condition No 5:* Your Failure to Remember or Supplicate for others. Making Du'a for someone secretly is a PASSWORD to getting ur own Du'a answered. Yes. But on condition that, u do not go broadcasting it directly or indirectly to the person or anyone. Evidence: “The supplication of a Muslim for his brother in his absence will certainly be answered.. Every time he/she mak...

BismilLah.  Let's continue with our studies from yesterday's reminder on suural Alaq; verses 9–14 (The One Who Prevents Prayer). These verses refer to Abu Jahl, who tried to stop the Prophet ﷺ from praying at the Ka‘bah. أَرَأَيْتَ الَّذِي يَنْهَىٰ ۝ عَبْدًا إِذَا صَلَّىٰ Meaning: Have you seen the one who forbids A servant when he prays? ✨ Commentary ALLAH Azzawajal defends those who pray. Even if people oppose you for worshipping ALLAH, remain firm. Ramadan teaches: Protect your salah. Increase sujood. Don’t be shy about your worship. 15–19 (The Command to Prostrate) كَلَّا لَئِن لَّمْ يَنتَهِ لَنَسْفَعًا بِالنَّاصِيَةِ ۝ نَاصِيَةٍ كَاذِبَةٍ خَاطِئَةٍ ۝ ... كَلَّا لَا تُطِعْهُ وَاسْجُدْ وَاقْتَرِب Meaning: No!

 FAJR REMINDER: THINGS WHICH BREAK THE FAST By: Umm Affān Ramaḍān 7, 1447 (24-February-2026) O Muslims! We must be vigilant not to break our fast during the days of Ramaḍān without a valid Islāmic excuse, as this is among the gravest of sins. It is crucial to understand that the acts that invalidate the fast can be categorized into two types. The first category includes actions that require only compensating for the broken fast (Qada‘). These actions are: knowingly eating or drinking (or consuming nourishing substances that replace food and drink); intentionally inducing vomiting; deliberate ejaculation (whether through masturbation or other methods short of sexual intercourse, such as kissing, hugging, or caressing one’s spouse, watching pornographic videos, etc.); and menstruation or post-partum bleeding (even if it begins just before sunset). While these actions invalidate the fast, they only necessitate making it up. The second category demands that one refrain from food and dr...

 *Remain Focused* [[--- Part 9 ---]] ------------------ بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم Imam Ibn Al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him) said: “Dua and taawwudhat [prayers seeking refuge with Allah] are like a weapon, and a weapon is only as good as the person who is using it; it is not merely the matter of how sharp it is. If the weapon is perfect and free of faults, and the arm of the person using it is strong, and there is nothing stopping him, then he can lay waste the enemy. But if any of these three features is lacking, then the effect will be lacking accordingly.” 📚(Ad-Da’ wad-Dawa’, p. 35) From this statement, it will be clear that there is an etiquette and rulings which must be fulfilled, in the Dua and in the person making the Dua. This is why, Even though the month of Ramadan is a month where our Du'as is accepted, some people's duas will never get answered. Now, *What we must not ignore if we don't want our Du'a rejected:* *Condition No 4:* Failure to Start your du‘...

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yaum al-ithnayn, 6th day of Ramadhan, 1447AH, Monday, 23rd February, 2026. *_STUDIES of SUURAH Al-‘Alaq (Qur’an 96) continues. BismilLah.  Let's continue with our studies from yesterday's reminder; Ramadan Reflection: Ramadan is the month of the Qur’an. If the first revelation began with Iqra’, then Ramadan should increase our connection with: Reciting Qur’an, Seeking knowledge, Teaching others, Reflecting deeply. Verses 6–8 (Warning Against Arrogance) كَلَّا إِنَّ الْإِنسَانَ لَيَطْغَىٰ ۝ أَن رَّآهُ اسْتَغْنَىٰ ۝ إِنَّ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ الرُّجْعَىٰ Meaning: No! Indeed, man transgresses Because he sees himself self-sufficient. Surely to your Lord is the return. ✨ Commentary When people feel independent of ALLAH Azzawajal, they become arrogant. Wealth, power, status can make a person forget their Creator. Ramadan breaks this illusion: Fasting reminds us we are weak. Hunger humbles us. Thirst softens the heart. To be continued tomorrow in Shaa ALLAH.  ...

 FAJR REMINDER: THE DEVILS ARE STILL ACTIVE By: Umm Affān Ramaḍān 6, 1447 (23-February-2026) Why do some “Muslims” still succumb to the temptations of Shayṭān and commit sins during Ramaḍān? It is concerning that some engage in major sins such as consuming intoxicants, committing Zinā', and listening to music. Isn’t Ramaḍān, especially its prescribed fasting, a special gift meant to aid us in resisting such evils? Abū Hurayrah (Raḍiyallāhu ‘Anhu) narrated that Allāh’s Messenger (ﷺ) stated: “When the month of Ramaḍān starts, the gates of Jannah (Paradise) are opened and the gates of Hell are closed, and the Shayṭān (devils) are chained.” [Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 1899, Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 1079] It is important to note that the devils referred to as being chained are the “Maradah Shayāṭīn,” which implies the strongest among them. Thus, the lesser Shayāṭīn are still free to tempt individuals. [Check Jalasāt Ramaḍāniyyah 10/19] Hence, the lesser devils remain active and capable of manipulat...

BismilLah.  This suurah is widely known as the first revelation sent to our beloved Prophet ﷺ in the Cave of Hira.

 FAJR REMINDER: ABOUT IFṬĀR AND SAḤŪR By: Umm Affān Ramaḍān 5, 1447 (22-February-2026) O Muslims! Let's distinguish our fasting from that of non-Muslims, particularly the People of the Book, by taking Saḥūr (the pre-fasting meal) during the final part of the night. It is not a sign of Taqwā to claim that one can fast without it or to deem those who consume it as weak. ‘Amr Ibn Al-Aas (Raḍiyallāhu ‘Anhu) reported that the Prophet (ﷺ) stated: “The difference between our fasting and the fasting of the People of the Book is eating Saḥūr.” [Ṣaḥiḥ Muslim 1096] Neglecting Saḥūr is an act of disobedience to the Prophet (ﷺ). Anas Ibn Mālik (Raḍiyallāhu ‘Anhu) narrated that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Take the pre-fasting meal, for surely there are blessings in the pre-fasting meal.” [Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 1923, Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 1095] While some may experience stomach discomfort after eating the pre-fasting meal, it remains important to partake in it—even if it’s merely a sip of water, as it sho...

 *Remain Focused* [[--- Part 4 ---]] ------------------ بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم One of the acts of worship legislated upon us by Allah in the month of Ramadan is dua (supplication). We should be making dua on a regular basis, throughout the year but in the month of Ramadan, duas hold a greater value than the rest of the year. Infact, in the month of Ramadan, our duas should increase. Why? Because Allah (swt) say: “And when My servants ask you, [O Muhammad], concerning Me – indeed I am near. I respond to the invocation of the supplicant when he calls upon Me.” 📚(Surah Baqarah v. 186) Furthermore, If you check a page in surah Al-baqarah where Allah (swt) discusses the issues of fasting, you will find the verse preceding it talking about acceptance of Dua. Automatically, there is a direct link between dua and the fasting of Ramadan. Also, The Prophet (PBUH) said: *“The supplications of three persons are never turned away: a just ruler, a fasting person until he breaks his fast..”* 📚(...

 *Remain Focused* [[ --- Part 3 --- ]] ------------------ بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم The month of Ramadan is a blessed period in the year of a Muslim. It is important to know as believers, the methodology of attaining the maximum benefit from this blessed month. One of the acts of worship legislated upon us by Allah is dua (supplication). We should be making dua on a regular basis, throughout the year but in the month of Ramadan, duas hold a greater value than the rest of the year. My people!
