ETIQUETTES OF THIS BLESSED DAY

DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat, 21st day of Muharram, 1441AH (Friday 20th September, 2019).
*_ETIQUETTES OF THIS BLESSED DAY_*. Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem.

A companion of the Prophet, Abu Huraira (R.A) reported that,  The Prophet (sallalLaahu Alaihi Wasallam) said, "When it is a Friday, the Angels stand at the gate of each Mosque and keep on writing the names of the persons entering to the Mosque in succession according to their arrivals. The example of the one who enters the mosque in the earliest hour is that of one offering a camel (in sacrifice). The one coming next is like one offering a cow and then a ram and then a chicken and then an egg respectively. When the Imam comes out (for Jumuah prayer) they (i.e. Angels) fold their papers and listen to the Khutba." [Bukhari]
SubhaanAllah, Angels are listening to Khutba but unfortunately you will see many still outside talking on mobile phones etc. Its compulsory to purify ourselves before going for Jumu'ah prayers.

*_How to perform Ghusulul Jumuat(spiritual bath)_*.
Ghusl has two kinds, Sufficient Ghusl and Complete Ghusl and both are accepted. They are as follows;
Sufficient Ghusl
This is done after Bismillah by just rinsing one's mouth and nose, then washing the entire body with water but with intention of performing ghusul in your heart bcs the intention is what matters here.
After this kind of ghusul, please perform full wudoo before Salaat. This type mostly after having sunnah with your partner but can be done for other reasons too.

Complete ghusul is done by:
1. washing the private parts and anywhere else that is contaminated with any impurity.
2. Performing a full wudoo [Ablution].
3. Pour water over your head, making sure that it reaches the roots of the hair.
4. Finally wash your entire body starting from the right side of your body and then the left side. This can be used for Salaat but we must avoid touching our private part else we have to perform wudoo again. These are the same ghusul for our sisters after their monthly cycle etc.

We should also remember to recite suuratul Kahf(Qur'an chapter 18), clean our teeth and use perfume (only men) and wear our best cloths.
Please recite more salawaat to the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam (Allahummah Salli alaa Muhammad to the end). Women can use perfume at home but not when going out just to avoid causing fitnah to men or prevent men's attention to them.

*_May ALLAH accept our prayers, forgive us our mistakes and grant us Jannatul Firdaus by HIS RAHMAH_*. 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...
