The Righteous Husband Exemplified by the Messenger of Allāh Muhammad (Blessings and Peace be upon him)* *Part 2



*The Righteous Husband Exemplified by the Messenger of Allāh Muhammad (Blessings and Peace be upon him)*

*Part 2*

One of the acts of the Prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon him) to show his love for his wives was to drink from the place where they drank and eat from the place where they ate. The mother of the believers, 'Ā'ishah (may Allāh be pleased with her) said,
“I drank and passed over (glass) to the Prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon him) and he drank from the same place I drank. And he ate my leftovers from the meat on the bone; he puts his mouth, where I put mine”. He ate the leftovers (meat on the bone) of 'Ā'ishah (may Allāh be pleased with her).

He (Blessings and Peace be upon him) did not forget his love and kindness to his wife at the time of hardship and wars, despite the responsibilities and hardship.
Anas (may Allāh be pleased with him) said:
“We returned to Medina- coming from Khyber - I saw the Prophet (peace be upon him and his family) making for her (Safiyah) a kind of cushion with his cloak behind him (on his camel). He then sat beside his camel and put his knee for Safiyah to put her foot on, in order to ride (on the camel)”.

And he (Blessings and Peace be upon him) cheered her up when she was sad. Safiyah (may Allāh be pleased with her) was with the Messenger of Allāh (Sub-haanahu wata'aala) in a journey, and that was her day, and she slowed down. She was received by the Messenger while she was crying, and saying: you made me ride a slow camel. He (Blessings and Peace be upon him) wiped her eyes and tears with her hands, and was calming her down.

The Prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon him) was so careful and worried over his wife even from the camel driver speeding up the camels they were riding.

It was narrated that Anas (may Allāh be pleased with him) said that  the Prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon him) was on a journey, and there was a boy named Angsha, who was leading the camels – of some of the mothers of the believers and Umm Salim. The camels were very fast, the Prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon him) said: “Slow down (in leading the camels of the women) O Angsha.”

If he entered his family at night, he gave a quiet greeting so that he does not awaken those sleeping, but loud enough for those awake to hear. The Prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon) disliked it when a man surprised his wife if he returned from travelling suddenly, so he (Blessings and Peace be upon him) sent her someone to inform her of his arrival.

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...

PURIFICATION OF THE HEART

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm al-khamis, 20th day of Swafar 1447AH, Thursday, 14th August 2025. *_PURIFICATION OF THE HEART_*. BismilLah.  A sister asked me yesterday how we can purify ourselves to achieve the immense benefits mentioned in our reminder yesterday.  The command to purify our hearts from sins was an essential Islamic teaching ever since the early stages of the revelation in Mecca. This is known as “purification of the soul” (tazkiyyat an-nafs).   ALLAH Azzawajal says: He has succeeded who purifies the soul, and he has failed who corrupts the soul. Surah Ash-Shams 91:9-10. Also, ALLAH Azzawajal says: A day when there will be no benefit in wealth or children, but only in he who comes to ALLAH Azzawajal with a pure heart. Surah Ash-Shu’ara 26:88-89.  We learn from these verses that our success in the Hereafter depends upon the purification of our hearts in this life. We must purify our hearts from spiritual sins such as greed, malice, envy, arrog...
