EXPIATION IF YOU SLEEP WITH YOUR WIFE OR BREAK YOUR FAST DURING THE DAY DUE TO ANY RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR WIFE

THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Ath-thalaatha, 24th day of Shăbaan, 1440, (Tuesday, 30th April, 2019). *_EXPIATION IF YOU SLEEP WITH YOUR WIFE OR BREAK YOUR FAST DURING THE DAY DUE TO ANY RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR WIFE_*. Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem. Ramadan is few days ahead Alhamdulillah and may ALLAH favor us to be part with good health through the halaal means. We all know that it's permissible to have any halaal relationship with your wife after breaking the fast in Ramadan. But to do that during the day time whilst fasting is ongoing is a grave evil, a major sin and a repulsive shameful deed. What you must do if it ever happens or happened before is to repent to ALLAH, may He be exalted, and make up that day, as well as offering expiation. Ibn Qudaamah (may ALLAH have mercy on him) said: The expiation (kafaarah) becomes a binding obligation upon one who has intercourse in Ramadan during the day deliberately, whether he ejaculates or not, according to the view of the majo

The Other Doors

Our 4 year old son has some fairly serious health problems, so we are “frequent fliers” at the local children’s hospital. Two weeks ago, our son was there for several days having surgery. As stressful as that was for us, my visits to that hospital almost always leave me feeling grateful. Why? Because of “the other doors.” As I walk the corridors of that hospital, I pass doors leading to many different departments. I pass the department where surgeons reconstruct children’s faces. I pass the department where specialists treat children who have been tragically burned. I pass the department where children with cancer spend their childhoods battling a disease that terrifies most adults. Every day, people walk through those doors. I keep walking. Occasionally, I walk through a ward, past the room of a dying child. I look in at the child, unconscious amid a mass of tubes and machines. I see the family, staring blankly into space, grieving for what is to come. I keep walking. On the

PREGNANT AND BREASTFEEDING WOMEN IN RELATION TO FASTING IN RAMADAN

THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Ithnayn, 23rd day of Shăbaan, 1440, (Monday, 29th April, 2019). *_PREGNANT AND BREASTFEEDING WOMEN IN RELATION TO FASTING IN RAMADAN_*. BismilLaahir Rahmaanir Raheem. Its important to start reminding each other about Ramadan dos and dons from today in shaa ALLAH. First of all, let me remind all that, a husband CANNOT fast to cover his wife's missed Ramadan fastings. With regards to Breastfeeding mothers and also pregnant women, two scenarios may apply: 1. If the woman is not affected by fasting, and fasting is not too difficult for her, and she does not fear for her child, then she is obliged to fast, and it is not permissible for her not to fast. 2. If the woman fears for herself or her child because of fasting, and fasting is difficult for her, then she is allowed not to fast, but she has to make up the days that she does not fast after Ramadan. In this situation it is better for her not to fast, and it is makrooh or descouraged for

Understanding Television

THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Ahad, 22nd day of Shăbaan, 1440, (Sunday, 28th April, 2019). *_Understanding Television_*. BismilLaahir Rahmaanir Raheem. The entire world today especially in the middle east, the murder and mayhem have been going on for years. "The only social activities left in the cities are those related to death," wrote a Karachi newsmagazine editorial some few years ago. "Funerals, burial, mourning." When you leave the home in the morning, you don't know whether you'll return safely that evening. Wherever you look, you can see fear, uncertainty, and depression. Yet, among all the fearing and grieving that accompanies the tragedy, the dish antennas on the rooftops has been flourishing. In the past at times of catastrophes people would turn to ALLAH, would stop going to the cinema houses, and would repent from sins, even though temporarily. Today, there is an ever-increasing appetite for the television fun. On days when a strike

This is mind blowing

يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ قَدْ جَاءَتْكُمْ مَوْعِظَةٌ مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ وَشِفَاءٌ لِمَا فِي الصُّدُورِ وَهُدًى وَرَحْمَةٌ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ “People, indeed a reminder has come to you from your Lord, a cure for what is in the chests, a guide and a mercy for the faithful.” Qur’ān 10:57 In this verse Allāh describes the Qur'ān with four qualities: 1. A reminder 2. A cure 3. A guide 4. A mercy To better understand that, think of the Qur'an as a doctor. A physician’s role varies based on the patient, the illness, and its severity. Sometimes, he takes preventative steps by warning a healthy person from things that may harm his health. If, however, the patient is already sick, then he reacts, moving from preventive care to treatment and cure. After a patient is healed, he takes on the role of a guide who prescribes what the patient needs to maintain health. Once the patient is healthy, he will recognize the blessings of following his doctor's advice. Imām al-Rāzi notes that

Do you lose attention in your ibadah?

There was a builder who worked for a company building homes. When he got older, he wanted to retire. He went to the manager of the company and informed him of his intention to retire. The manager said he could retire, but under condition that he build one final home for the company. The man accepted the condition and began building the home as quickly as he could so he could fulfill the condition and finally retire. However, the home was built shabbily; the doors were poorly hung and the walls were flimsy. He then rushed to the manager and handed him the keys to the newly built home. The manager then informed him that this home was a gift to him from the company he had served for so many years. Needless to say, the man was shocked; he thought to himself, why didn't I built that home well, why didn't I make that the best home I ever built? Similarly dear brothers and sisters, our worship, our prayers and our voluntary good deeds are for Allah. He asks us to do them, but on t

Becoming A Healthy Eater

Becoming A Healthy Eater . Allah says in Quran Surah: 47   Aya: 12 12. Certainly! Allâh will admit those who believe (in the Oneness of Allâh Islâmic Monotheism) and do righteous good deeds, to Gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise), while those who disbelieve enjoy themselves and eat as cattle eat, and the Fire will be their abode. . Being a healthy eater requires you to become both educated and smart about what healthy eating actually is. Being food smart isn't about learning to calculate grams or fat, or is it about studying labels and counting calories. . Healthy eating is all about balanced and moderate eating, consisting of healthy meals at least three times per day. Healthy eaters eat many different types of foods, not limiting themselves to one specific food type or food group. . Eating healthy requires quite a bit of leeway. You might eat too much or not enough, consume foods that are sometimes more or less nutritious. However, you should always fuel your bo

Be careful of the "thieves" during the month of Ramadan

Be careful of the "thieves" during the month of Ramadan: 1. Television🌴 This thief is dangerous and ruins the days of people and diminishes their rewards. By watching useless movies and programs it squanders the time in a month where the days are the best of all days and the nights are the best of all nights.🌴 2. Too much sleep🌷 Just because it is said in Hadith that even sleep in this month has reward, does not mean that you should excessively sleep! The point is that if even sleep contains rewards then imagine the rewards of ibadat!🌷 3. Wasting night🔮 A thief that steals the most valuable time from you! This thief is responsible for turning you away from Salatul Layl, istighfaar and tawbah, and the reading of specific duas of Month Ramadhan and recitation of the Quran.🔮 4. Stinginess✨ 👉 Give sadaqah, iftaar, and help the orphans. 👈Give iftaar even if it is half a date, or a sip of water, so Allah swt will forgive your past sins.🎉 5. Gatherings withou

The Importance of Prayer

The Importance of Prayer:- ============================== The Messenger of Allah (SallAllahu alaihi wa sallam) said :- “The first deed for which people will be brought to account on the Day of Resurrection will be their prayer. Our Lord will say to His angels, ‘Look at the Prayer of My slave whether it is complete.’ If it is complete, it will be recorded as being complete, but if anything is lacking, He will say, ‘Look and see whether My slave offered any voluntary prayers.’ If he did any voluntary prayers, He will say, ‘Complete My slave’s obligatory prayers from his voluntary prayers.’ Then all other deeds will be judged in the like manner.” Refer :- [Abu Dawud]...!!! ============================== Commentary :- ============================== The above Hadith informs us of the first duties towards Allah for which a person will be brought to account, and this will be the Salaah (prayer). In another narration (which is Sahih & found in Sunan at-Tirmidhi & Sunan an

FRIDAY (Jumu'ah) REMINDER

Allah says in Qur'an regarding Friday. 'O believers! When the call is made for the prayer on Friday, hasten towards the remembrance of Allah and leave business. This is better for you if you know. (Surah 62, Al-Jumu'ah Verse 9‘) *IMPORTANCE OF JUMU'AH* On the day of jumu'ah, the angels stand at the entrance of the masjid and write down the name of the person who enters the masjid first . The prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) said: "On the day of jumu'ah, the angels stand at the entrance of that masjid in which jumu'ah salaat is to be offered. They write down the name of the person who enters the Masjid first, and thereafter the name of the person who follows, and they continue doing this. The person who entered first will receive the reward of sacrificing a camel in the path of Allah, the one who followed him will get the reward of sacrificing a cow, thereafter a chicken, thereafter the reward of giving an egg as charity in the path of Alla

FOUR TYPES OF ZULM (oppression)

*1) Against Allah* By committing shirk (associating partners with Allah). Considering Allah created us and sustains us, this is the worst type of Zulm! Allah says, “Luqman said to his son while he was instructing him, 'O my son, do not associate partners with Allah. Indeed, shirk is great Zulm'” (Qur'an, 31:13). *2) Against oneself* a) By disobeying the commands of Allah. Commands are of two types: Doing good and abstaining from evil. Many make an effort to do good, but true piety is to exert equal effort in abstaining from evil. b) By not fulfilling the rights of the body. For example, eating/sleeping too little or too much, overworking the body, and overexerting oneself in worship. *3) Against others* By treating others unfairly or not fulfilling their rights. This includes being abusive, ill-mannered towards our loved ones, paying our staff less than they deserve, humiliating others, misguiding others, and oppressing the weak or poor. The Prophet ﷺ said, “Allah

EVIL DISEASES OF THE HEART

THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat, 20th day of Shăbaan, 1440, (Friday, 26th April, 2019). *_EVIL DISEASES OF THE HEART_*. Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem. Imagine standing in Tahajjud all night but end up gaining sins AstaqfirulLah. Very dangerous isn't it. As human beings we have this dangerous disease of acting to please others instead of ALLAH. Imagine someone offering Salaat, as soon as he noticed someone watching, he or she try to perfect it than how he use to do it, that's a minor shirk if not major bcs it means you are prefearing the person looking at you to ALLAH seeing you live all the time. This is the disease of ar-riyaa (show-off). It’s very difficult. Nobody can say, “I’m safe from riyaa.” The one who says this is showing off. The Prophet warned us about riyaa, but what is the meaning of ar-riyaa? Riyaa is so dangerous that the Prophet gave it a special name. He said, “Indeed the thing I fear for you the most is the minor shirk (associating partners
