ZINA AND MASTURBATION

*ZINA AND MASTURBATION*

Zina is when a man and a woman engage in an unlawful sexual intercourse whether they are married or not married. Zina is haram, one can only have intercourse with the opposite sex if they are lawfully married.

Masturbation is the act of seducing one's self in order to derive sexual gain by stimulating the penis (for men) or clitoris (for women). This act is also unlawful. But its gravity is not as powerful as that of zina. You can call it a lesser zina with one's self.

*Effects of masturbation.*
Scientifically, it reduces the strength of man's penis. And frequent mastur can causes internal tissue rapture. And it is adaptive, people who start find it difficult to stop. And people who do it find it difficult to get satisfaction in sexual intercourse. It make someone feel thr urge to commit zina. And it makes someone feel inclination towards same sex. Mastur destroys marriages bcos the men don't find their wives any suitable bcos they are use to it. And finally, it exposes one to pornography bcos one needs something to make them aroused before they start masturbation.

*Causes.*
Lack of fear of Allah, lack of gratitude to Allah. Gazing at the opposite sex. Engaging in acts that expose one to it such as watching movies with romance, mingling with women, vulgar discussion, negative thoughts about sex. And finally, failure to get married when time is due.

*How to stop.*
First, make dua to Allah to help you stop. Engage in fasting, fasting takes your mind away from dirty thoughts. Engage in constant ibada, this will take your mind away from it. Engage zikr or supplication to Allah. And avoid mingling with the opposite sex. Avoid staying alone in the room for hours doing nothing. Shaitan gets u there. Avoid watching pornography. Avoid watching movies with nudity. Avoid vulgar talks. Stay away from social media.

Finally, the best cure is the recitation of the Qur'an. When you are constantly reciting it cures you from this kind of thoughts. I have a friend, she is divorced for 6 years now. I interviewed her. She said to me after she left her husband now its 6 years, she never masturbated for once, she never had intercourse with anyone. I asked her what is the secret despite having sexual desire. She told me she engaged in all the above suggestions i stated above. And after sometime she never thought of having anything to do with sex or masturbation.

NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Arba'a. 29th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Wednesday 8th May 2024). *_NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH_*. BismilLah.  Even though feelings of Panic, stress/worries etc are part of life, they must not reduce our acts of worship or trust in ALLAH. The more a man turns to ALLAH and focuses on HIM, the more he will feel a sense of peace and comfort, to an extent that no one knows except ALLAH. Hence those who know ALLAH, are close to HIM and fear HIM are the happiest of people, to such an extent that one of them said, in a well-known expression: “If the kings and the sons of kings knew what joy we have, they would fight us for it with the sword.” This is also what is expressed in the Qur’an, as ALLAH says: “Whoever works righteousness, whether male or female, while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to him ALLAH will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and ALLAH will ...

HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yaum Al-Khamis, 22nd day of Jumaadal Uula 1447AH, Thursday, 13th November, 2025.  *_HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN_*. BismilLah.  When we help our brothers and sisters in Islam, in reality, we are helping ourselves. The Messenger of ALLAH (S.A.W) said: He who relieves the hardship of a believer in this world, ALLAH Azzawajallah will relieve his hardship on the Day of Judgment. He who makes easy what is difficult, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will make it easy for him in the world and the hereafter. He who conceals the faults of a Muslim, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will conceal his faults in this ALLAH Azzawajallah world and the Hereafter, for ALLAH helps the servant as long as he helps his brother. Source: Ṣaḥīḥ "Muslim 2699. AlhamdulilLah.  With this I hope with immediate effect we will all strive to help each other in any possible way such as making dua for each other, supporting our relatives and those in need in ou...

BEST TIME FOR TAHAJJUD

 *BEST TIME FOR TAHAJJUD* It is best to delay this prayer to the last third portion of the night. Abu Hurairah reports that the Messenger of Allah said: "Our Lord descends to the lowest heaven during the last third of the night, inquiring: 'Who will call on Me so that I may respond to him? Who is asking something of Me so I may give it to him? Who is asking for My forgiveness so I may forgive him?"' This is related by the group. 'Amr ibn Abasah reports that he heard the Prophet say: "The closest that a slave comes to his Lord is during the middle of the latter portion of the night. If you can be among those who remember Allah, the Exalted One, at that time then do so." This is related by al-Hakim who grades it sahih according to Muslim's standards, and at-Tirmizhi calls it hasan sahih. AnNasa'i and Ibn Khuzaimah also recorded it. Abu Muslim asked Abu Zharr: "Which late-night prayer is the best?" He said: "I asked the Messenger of A...
