LAST 10 DAYS OF GOLDEN REWARDS

THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt, 20th day of Ramadhan (Saturday 25th May 2019).
*_LAST 10 DAYS OF GOLDEN REWARDS_*. BismilLaahir Rahmaanir Raheem.

The last ten days of Ramadan are very precious indeed: ALLAH'S Messenger used to exert himself in devotion during the last ten nights to a greater extent than at any other time." (Muslim). Please don't ask me about the odd days in this last days in trying to use our wisdom to acquire laylatul Qadar. You may miss it if you do so, just strive to get some time in acts of worship throughout the night of this last days as no one can be certain which days or nights are the odd days this month.

Our mother Aishah (may ALLAH be pleased with her) reported that during the last ten days of Ramadan; the Messenger of ALLAH would wake his wives up during the night and then remain apart from them (that is, being busy in acts of worship). (Bukhari).

Here are some ways that we can all make the best of these precious last ten days of Ramadhan. One should make a plan in mind for oneself so that one can make the best of these last 10 precious days.
It should include the times that one will read the Qur’an, how many nafl/sunnah prayers and at what times. Times to sleep and times to be awake especially at night to make sure we don't miss laylatul Qadar.

Spend the last 10 days in I’thikaaf if you can. I`tikaf is the seclusion and staying in the Masjid with the intention of becoming closer to ALLAH by doing constant remembrance, glorification and worship of ALLAH Ta’aala. One should perform as many Nafil prayers as possible and recite much of the Qur’an and its meanings, read books on Islam and keep ones lips moist with the constant glorification and remembrance of ALLAH ta’aalaa. Strive to forgive and seek forgiveness from whoever you've wronged or wronging. Do not abuse or cheat on anyone or even yourself and stay focused to your acts of worship nothing else.

*_We ask ALLAH to aid us in our effort to gain HIS pleasure as we enter into these golden days and nights of the year_*. Aameen.

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 ...

One of the question asked is can a Christian enter Jannah today?

 One of the question asked is can a Christian enter Jannah today? Alhamdulillah, it is clear from Quran and hadiths that any christian who dies believing Jesus is God or son of God and do not believe in prophet Muhammad Peace be Upon Him will enter hellfire. Allah says, Al-Ma'idah 5:17 They have certainly disbelieved who say that Allāh is Christ, the son of Mary. Say, "Then who could prevent Allāh at all if He had intended to destroy Christ, the son of Mary, or his mother or everyone on the earth?" And to Allāh belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them. He creates what He wills, and Allāh is over all things competent. Allah says, Al-Ma'idah 5:72 لَقَدۡ كَفَرَ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلۡمَسِيحُ ٱبۡنُ مَرۡيَمَۖ وَقَالَ ٱلۡمَسِيحُ يَٰبَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ ٱعۡبُدُواْ ٱللَّهَ رَبِّي وَرَبَّكُمۡۖ إِنَّهُۥ مَن يُشۡرِكۡ بِٱللَّهِ فَقَدۡ حَرَّمَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيۡهِ ٱلۡجَنَّةَ وَمَأۡوَىٰهُ ٱلنَّارُۖ وَمَا لِلظَّٰلِمِينَ مِنۡ أَنصَ...

Friday and it's dignity.

 Friday and it's dignity. Alhamdulillah, Allah says, Al-Jumu'ah 62:9 يَآأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ إِذَا نُودِيَ لِلصَّلَوٰةِ مِن يَوۡمِ ٱلۡجُمُعَةِ فَٱسۡعَوۡاْ إِلَىٰ ذِكۡرِ ٱللَّهِ وَذَرُواْ ٱلۡبَيۡعَۚ ذَٰلِكُمۡ خَيۡرࣱ لَّكُمۡ إِن كُنتُمۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ O you who have believed, when [the adhān] is called for the prayer on the day of Jumuʿah [Friday], then proceed to the remembrance of Allāh and leave trade. That is better for you, if you only knew. Friday is the best day of the week because it was the day Adam was created, the day he entered paradise and the day he was removed from paradise. it was also the day he died and the hour(qiyaamah) will not come except on this day. Sahih. It was narrated from Aws bin Aws that: The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Whoever washes (ghassala) and performs ghusl, comes early to the masjid and sits near the imam and does not engage in idle talk, he will have for every step he takes (the reward of) a year's worth of good deeds, fasting it and...
