Dear Parents

*Dear Parents,*


What am about to say is very sad and disturbing, so bear with me.

When Allah Ta'alah gives us the responsibility of being parents it comes with a lot of sacrifices such as: behaving very well and appropriately, abstaining from bad habits, and engaging in all forms of goodness. I am not saying a parent cannot make a mistake, but i mean, parents should minimise making mistakes.

There are a lot of mistakes that parents make that affect their children emotionally, spiritually, morally and psychologically. There are some mistakes that change the mindset of children and turn them into bad people. For example:

When a child finds out that his parents are committing zina and that some of their children are not theirs. This is difficult for the children. And it can affect them badly in future and even in present times. Or when parents are harming other people in front of their children, it conveys a very bad message. Or when parents are abusing each other, for sure their children will find abusing other people's children especially women as normal.

But the one that hurts me the most is when parents are cheating in their marriage. This breaks the heart wallahi. And it destroys the relationship of parents and children. And it has severe effects on the society at large. As a mother or father, you should lead the way for your children. And mind you, wallahi lots of children know their parents are cheating. Don't take your children for granted. They are smart and they know it. I have listened to complaints of many victims who cried in front of me bcos they don't know how to change their parents. Mum and Dad, you are hurting your kids. Stop it.

All i want all parents to know is this, in the day of judgment, there will be judgement between parents and their children. And wallahi if you harm your child Allah will not make it easy for you. Bcos your children deserve a good parent. And remember, they are an amana to you. They are not yours. They belong to Allah.

To all those brothers and sisters whose parents are into one or two things, we pray to Allah to guide our parents, to guide us too, and to prevent us from mischief. Amin.

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 ...

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...

IMPORTANCE OF SEEKING KNOWLEDGE An obligation upon every Muslim

 ﷽ ➖➖➖ *IMPORTANCE OF SEEKING KNOWLEDGE* ➖➖➖ *An obligation upon every Muslim* ➖➖➖  Allah ﷻ says  *وَعَلَّمَ ءَادَمَ الأَسْمَآءَ كُلَّهَا* _And He taught Adam all the names of everything_ Meaning, the names that people use, such as human, animal, sky, earth, land, sea, horse, donkey, and so forth, including the names of the other species" *ثُمَّ عَرَضَهُمْ عَلَى الْمَلَـئِكَةِ* _Then He showed them to the angels_ Meaning, the creations. Qatadah رحمه الله said, _"Allah paraded the objects before the angels"_ *فَقَالَ أَنۢبِـُٔونِى بِأَسْمَآءِ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ إِن كُنتُمْ صَٰدِقِينَ* _And said, "Tell Me the names of these if you are truthful."_ [2:31] This was said to the Angels who in the previous verse said : *أَتَجْعَلُ فِيهَا مَن يُفْسِدُ فِيهَا وَيَسْفِكُ الدِّمَآءَ* _Will You place therein those who will make mischief therein and shed blood._ [2:30] _ So they the Angels said  *قَالُواْ سُبْحَـنَكَ لاَ عِلْمَ لَنَآ إِلاَّ مَا عَلَّمْتَنَآ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ الْعَلِي...
