LET'S SPEAK WITH CARE

THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arbaă, 25th day of Shăbaan, 1440, (Wednesday, 1st May, 2019).
*_LET'S SPEAK WITH CARE_*. BismilLaahir Rahmaanir Raheem.

As Ramadan approaches, let's strive to change our complete ways of life including how we speak to others etc.
Our beloved Messenger of ALLAH (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “A person may say something that is pleasing to ALLAH but he does not realize it, and ALLAH raises his status by many degrees because of it, and a person may say something that angers ALLAH, but he does not realize it, and for that he may be thrown deep into Hell.” [Saheeh Bukhari].

We must always be wary of the words that slip out of our mouths. ALLAH (subhana wa ta’ala) has appointed angels to record the deeds, both good and bad, of the children of Aadam (alaihis salam). These are the angels referred to in the Ayaat: “But verily, over you (are appointed angels) to watch you, Kiraaman Kaatibeen, writing down. They know all that you do.” [Quran 82:10-12].

“Kiraaman Kaatibeen” means “honourable scribes” and refers to the two angels that ALLAH (subhana wa ta’ala) has appointed for each person who are always present and who never leave him; they record in detail all that he does.
ALLAH (subhana wa ta’ala) says: “(Remember) that the two receivers (recording angels) receive, one sitting on the right and one on the left. Not a word does he (or she) utter but there is a watcher by him ready (to record it).” [Quran 50:17-18].

Ibn Abbas (radi Allahu anhu), the honourable Sahabah and Mufassir of the Quran, said: “Everything that you say, good or bad, is written down. Even when a person says, ‘I ate’, ‘I drank’, ‘I went,’ ‘I came,’ ‘I saw’. So imagine all our bad words we use on daily basis.

Ibn Katheer may ALLAH  be pleased with him mentioned that Imaam Ahmad used to moan when he was sick. Then he heard that Taawoos (one of the Tabi’een narrators of hadith) said, “Everything is written down, even when a person moans.” After that, Imam Ahmad never moaned until he died, may ALLAH have mercy on him. As Muslims we don't want downtown Jannat but Jannatul Firdaus as such let's strive to live a descent lifestyle purely to please ALLAH so that he can grant us Jannatul Firdaus by HIS MERCY.

*_May ALLAH keep guiding us till Jannat becomes our final abode_*. Aameen.

GIVE CHARITY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Ath-thalaatha. 28th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Tuesday 7th May 2024). *_GIVE CHARITY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD_*. Aameen.  Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: The Prophet (SallallahuAlaihiWasallam) said, "Charity is obligatory everyday on every joint of a human being.* If one helps a person in matters concerning his riding animal by helping him to ride on it or by lifting his luggage on to it, all these will be regarded as charity. A good word, and every step one takes to offer the compulsory congregational prayer is regarded as charity; and guiding somebody on the road is regarded as charity." [Sahih Al-Bukhari, 4/2891]. To show gratitude to ALLAH for keeping your body safe and sound, you should give in charity or do charitable deeds. Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: ALLAH'S Messenger (sallallahuAlaihiWasallam) said, "The strong is not the one who overcomes the people by his strength, but the strong is the one w

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 p
