*DU'Ā FROM THE GLORIOUS QUR-ĀN (29)

﷽ *DU'Ā FROM THE GLORIOUS QUR-ĀN (29)* رَبَّنَا وَاجْعَلْنَا مُسْلِمَيْنِ لَكَ وَمِن ذُرِّيَّتِنَا أُمَّةً مُّسْلِمَةً لَّكَ وَأَرِنَا مَنَاسِكَنَا وَتُبْ عَلَيْنَا إِنَّكَ أَنتَ التَّوَّابُ الرَّحِيمُ "Our Lord! And make us submissive unto You and of our offspring a nation submissive unto You, and show us our Manasik (all the ceremonies of pilgrimage - Hajj and 'Umrah, etc.), and accept our repentance. Truly, You are the One Who accepts repentance, the Most Merciful. [Qur-ān 2:128] *Thought For The Day* ●‘Know that the Qur’ān is of the most emphasised of all adhkār, so it is essential to be consistent in it, and not to miss it even for one day or night.’ [Imām al-Nawawī] ●The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "When you stand up to pray, perform your prayer as if it were your last" [Musnad Ahmad] ●Abū Hurayrah رضي الله عنه  said: “The Prophet ﷺ used to say when in Sajdah: ‘Allāhummaghfir Lī Dhanbī Kullahu Diqqahu Wa Jillahu.

Let's Change Our Mindsets About Marriage* *Episode 36

﷽ *Let's Change Our Mindsets About Marriage* *Episode 36* *THE EVIL OF INTERMIXING* The Messenger of Allāh (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said: “Never should a man be with a woman, except in the presence of a Mahram (i.e., her non-marriageable man).” A Mahram is a man whom she may never marry under any condition, either due to a blood-relationship (such as her brother, father and so on) or due to her breastfeeding from the same woman as that man, or due to marriage (like her father in-law). This prohibition is to prevent Satan spreading immorality and arousing lusts and thus instigating fornication and adultery. Nowadays, many Muslims use to commit sins with the name of brother-in-law or sister-in-law by staying together for a very long period of time without any body which leads to so many evil acts. Also, some adult Muslim men and women in  our tertiary institutions who are not lawfully married will rent a room in the school and live together for years in the nam

_LETS BE MINDFUL OF THESE BAD HABITS IN LIFE

DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt, 5th day of RAJAB (Saturday 29th of February, 2020). *_LETS BE MINDFUL OF THESE BAD HABITS IN LIFE_*. BismilLah. Let's remind  ourselves that ALLAH does not love stubborn rejectors of faith, committing sins, and showing ingratitude. ALLAH says: فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ الْكَافِرِينَ Verily, ALLAH does not love the unbelievers. Qur'an 3:32. Why? Bcs their disbelief in ALLAH and HIS Messenger only grant them the Hellfire. And ALLAH says: وَاللَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ كُلَّ كَفَّارٍ أَثِيمٍ ALLAH does not love any ungrateful sinner. Quran 2:276. ALLAH does not love arrogance, pride, boasting to one another, extravagance, and exultation in wrongdoing. ALLAH says: إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ مَن كَانَ مُخْتَالًا فَخُورًا Verily, ALLAH does not love those who are proud and boastful. Surah An-Nisa 4:36. These few are more than enough to aid us to fear these bad acts in our lives. *_We ask ALLAH to make us among those who are loved by HIM and w

Let's Change Our Mindsets About Marriage* *Episode 35*

﷽ *Let's Change Our Mindsets About Marriage* *Episode 35* *MARRIED COUPLE MUST AVOID ARGUING* Undoubtedly a great deal of criticism and arguing in marriage is something negative that undermines harmony, love and damages the marriage  and children's mindset. Married couple must  reduce that as much as possible, and to show restraint; each of us should force ourselves to be patient with the other and to avoid issues of arguments as Shaitan is the winner at the end. Our Beloved messenger of Allāh (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) has advised that we must avoid arguing even if we are at the right side of the story. Argument is a tool which sheitan uses to damage relationship which is the number one of his priorities. Any human being COULD NOT be free of faults or shortcomings, because that is part of human nature, especially women, whose basic nature the Prophet (blessings and peace of ALLAH be upon him) has told us about, and said that there is no hope of changing her natur

DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat, 4th day of RAJAB (Friday 28th of February, 2020). *_SOME Non Muslim asked Why ALLAH uses plural "WE" sometimes instead of singular "I". This need some explanation so forgive me if is a bit long. Let's learn and share to others as we continue from the reminder 2 days ago_*. BismilLah. The question asked is indeed a very interesting one and one deserving of deep thought. First lets get one thing clear. And that is the message of Tauheed -- One God(ALLAH). That is the primary message of the Holy Quran and the same message was brought by every Prophet of ALLAH who ever came to this earth, starting from Aadam upto the Last Messenger Mohamed (sallalLaahu Alaihi Wasallam). ALLAH says in Chapter 112, Surah Ikhlas Verse 1-4: Say to mankind: HE is ALLAH, the ONE and ONLY. ALLAH is Independent of all, and all are dependent on HIM. Neither has HE any offspring, nor is HE the offspring of anyone; and NONE is equal to HIM in rank

70 AMAZING CHARACTERS OF 70 SAHABAH (R.A)

*70 AMAZING CHARACTERS OF 70 SAHABAH (R.A)* Sahaba”-The Companion of Prophet Muhammad (Blessings and Peace be upon) Definition of Sahaba: Anybody who met the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), believed in him and died a believer. “Allah looked into the hearts of His slaves, and He saw that the heart of Muhammad (peace be upon him) was the best of people’s hearts, so He chose him for Himself and sent him with His message. Then He looked into the hearts of His slaves after the heart of Muhammad, and He found that the hearts of his Sahaba (companions) were the best of people’s hearts, so He made them the supporters of His Prophet, who fought for His religion. So whatever they think is good, is good before Allah, and whatever they think is bad, is bad before Allah.” (Abdullah Ibn Masood) The Sahaba were the first and best generation of Muslims. We need to learn about them, love them, and emulate them. To help you learn more about the Sahaba, here is a short list of 70 amazing fa

ERA WHERE CHILDREN DON'T REPEAT CLASSES OR FAIL EXAMINATION AGAIN

*ERA WHERE CHILDREN DON'T REPEAT CLASSES OR FAIL EXAMINATION AGAIN* The fear of anyone while in Primary School in the 70s, 80s and 90s was repeating classes due to poor performance. Once you see the stamp... PROMOTED ON TRIAL, you have a sigh of relief.    I am so shocked that the mothers and Fathers who had these experiences will mandate private schools to doctor their Children's results. Some fight Schools and change their children Schools if informed about the ACTUAL PERFORMANCE of their children.    The schools without conscience that I labeled 'BUSINESS CENTRES' doctor results to impress Parents. Some mothers approach some unprofessional Teachers to award their children with first position to impress their husbands and get more money in the name of fees.    A secondary School will admit every singular child that wrote their exams all in the name of WE ARE LOOKING FOR CUSTOMERS. How can you admit a child who scored 20% into JSS one? After the admission, they c

ABŪ BAKR AND 'UMAR (May Allāh's Peace be upon them)

*ABŪ BAKR AND 'UMAR (May Allāh's Peace be upon them)* Abu Bakr (Radiallahu Anhu) and ‘Umar (Radiallahu Anhu) were the best of the Companions. They always compete with each other in good. Abu Bakr (Radiallahu Anhu) would mostly surpass ‘Umar (Radiallahu Anhu). If ‘Umar were to be early for prayer, he would find that Abu Bakr had already preceded him. If he were to feed a poor person, he would find that Abu Bakr had already done the same before him. If he were to stay awake the night praying, he would find that Abu Bakr had surpassed him yet again. Once, the Prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon him) ordered the people to give charity, in order to alleviate a hardship the Muslims were facing. It happened that at that time ‘Umar (Radiallahu Anhu) was affluent, and so he decided, “Today I will surpass Abu Bakr (Radiallahu Anhu), If I am ever to surpass him at all.” ‘Umar then went and brought half of his wealth and gave it to the Messenger of Allah (Blessings and Peace be upon h

ALLAH, the Exalted, says: "And fulfill (every) covenant. Verily! The covenant, will be questioned about.'' (17:34). Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri (May ALLAH be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of ALLAH (PBUH) said, "One of The most evil of the people to ALLAH on the Day of Resurrection will be the man who consorts with his wife and then publicizes her secret.''[Saheeh Muslim]. Islam treats conjugal union as a sacred and secret act, both in social and moral terms. Indeed, the sanctity of conjugal rights contributes to the consolidation of moral norms and social cohesion. Yet, what passes between wife and husband on the consummation night is usually taken in a light vein in our societies. In the morning, both of them relate their sexual experience to their friends respectively. This is

Cover (us) with Thy Forgiveness - me, my parents, and (all) Believers, on the Day that the Reckoning will be established! [Qur-ān 14:41]  *Thought For The Day* The nudity of a woman in her dress is evidence of the anger of ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA) upon her. Therefore, when ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA) became angry at Adam and Hawaa, HE uncovered that which was hidden of their private parts. So the angrier ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA) gets with the woman, the more she undresses, whereas the more pleased ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA) is with a woman, the more she covers (out of modesty). 👉 Shaykh Ibn Bāz (RAHIMAHULLAAH)

Surah Aal-e-Imran, Verse 97:

﷽ *Surah Aal-e-Imran, Verse 97:* فِيهِ آيَاتٌ بَيِّنَاتٌ مَّقَامُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَمَن دَخَلَهُ كَانَ آمِنًا وَلِلَّهِ عَلَى النَّاسِ حِجُّ الْبَيْتِ مَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ إِلَيْهِ سَبِيلًا وَمَن كَفَرَ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ غَنِيٌّ عَنِ الْعَالَمِينَ In it are manifest signs (for example), the Maqam (place) of Ibrahim (Abraham); whosoever enters it, he attains security. And Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah) to the House (Ka'bah) is a duty that mankind owes to Allah, those who can afford the expenses (for one's conveyance, provision and residence); and whoever disbelieves [i.e. denies Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah), then he is a disbeliever of Allah], then Allah stands not in need of any of the 'Alamin (mankind and jinns). ﷽ *Surah Aal-e-Imran, Verse 98:* قُلْ يَا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ لِمَ تَكْفُرُونَ بِآيَاتِ اللَّهِ وَاللَّهُ شَهِيدٌ عَلَىٰ مَا تَعْمَلُونَ Say: "O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians)!

_SOME NON MUSLIMS DO ASKED, WHY ALLAH USES PLURAL "WE" SOMETIMES INSTEAD OF SINGULAR "I".

DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arbaà, 2nd day of RAJAB (Wednesday 26th of February, 2020). *_SOME NON MUSLIMS DO ASKED, WHY ALLAH USES PLURAL "WE" SOMETIMES INSTEAD OF SINGULAR "I".* Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem. I like reminding on this topic frequently because many weak Muslims get confused if confronted by this question by non Muslims in an attempt to put some doubt in our faith or to try and justify the trinity which is shirk. One important point I want to remind all Muslims is that only FEW non Muslims do respect us and our Deen or ways of life. Majority actually hate us, mock us and will do all they can to deviate you from the only way to Paradise (Islam). ALLAH and HIS Messenger said that not me. Read quran 3:100 going. ALLAH has stated in HIS Book (The holy Quran) that the kuffaar bear enmity towards us and they would not spare any effort to cause us harm, and they wish us ill, and they will not be pleased until we follow their way. ALLAAH says: “O you

About eighty young men moved out at night, descended from the mountain of At-Tan'im and tried to infiltrate into the camp of Muslims. But they were arrested by Muhammad Ibn Maslamah who was the commander of the guards. To show his desire for peace, the Prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon him) released and pardoned them all.
