*AR-RAHĪQ AL-MAKHTOUM (The Pure Nectar). A Treaties On Prophet Muhammad's Biography.*

*Part 160*

*THE LESSER PILGRIMAGE ('UMRAH) OF AL-HUDAIBIYYA IN DHUL-QA'ADAH, 6 A.H. continues*

*MUSLIMS MOVE TOWARDS MECCA*

The Prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon him) headed for Mecca and when they reached Dhul-Hulaifa, he made the offering and assumed the state of ihrām for offering 'Umrah so that the people of Mecca would know he wanted no fight. He sent a spy of Khuzā'a to get information about Quraish. When he (the Prophet) approached 'Usfān, his spy came and said that Quraish mobilised the Habshis

(They are Arab septs of Kināna and other tribes. They were named after a mountain called 'Hubsheyy' that is six miles away from Mecca. Behind it Banul-Hārith Ibn 'Abd Manāf Ibn Kināna, Banu Al-Mustaliq, Al-Haya Ibn Sa'ad Ibn 'Umar and Banu Al-Hun Ibn Khazīma assembled and allied with Quraish to combat their enemy all together.)

and many troops to fight and prevent the Prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon him) from the Sacred House. The Prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon him) consulted with his Companions about a decision they should take and said: "What do you think if we take the children and women of those who collided with Quraish captive? If they kept their ground, they would stay grieved and sorry. If they escape, this would be necks that Allāh decreed to be cut off. Or do you want to go straight towards the Sacred House and fight those who prevent us from it?" Abu Bakr said: "Allāh and His Messenger know best. We came merely to perform 'Umrah, not to combat anyone. But I see that we should fight anyone who prevents us from the Sacred House." The Prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon him) replied: "So move on."

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 ...

HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yaum Al-Khamis, 22nd day of Jumaadal Uula 1447AH, Thursday, 13th November, 2025.  *_HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN_*. BismilLah.  When we help our brothers and sisters in Islam, in reality, we are helping ourselves. The Messenger of ALLAH (S.A.W) said: He who relieves the hardship of a believer in this world, ALLAH Azzawajallah will relieve his hardship on the Day of Judgment. He who makes easy what is difficult, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will make it easy for him in the world and the hereafter. He who conceals the faults of a Muslim, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will conceal his faults in this ALLAH Azzawajallah world and the Hereafter, for ALLAH helps the servant as long as he helps his brother. Source: Ṣaḥīḥ "Muslim 2699. AlhamdulilLah.  With this I hope with immediate effect we will all strive to help each other in any possible way such as making dua for each other, supporting our relatives and those in need in ou...

BEST TIME FOR TAHAJJUD

 *BEST TIME FOR TAHAJJUD* It is best to delay this prayer to the last third portion of the night. Abu Hurairah reports that the Messenger of Allah said: "Our Lord descends to the lowest heaven during the last third of the night, inquiring: 'Who will call on Me so that I may respond to him? Who is asking something of Me so I may give it to him? Who is asking for My forgiveness so I may forgive him?"' This is related by the group. 'Amr ibn Abasah reports that he heard the Prophet say: "The closest that a slave comes to his Lord is during the middle of the latter portion of the night. If you can be among those who remember Allah, the Exalted One, at that time then do so." This is related by al-Hakim who grades it sahih according to Muslim's standards, and at-Tirmizhi calls it hasan sahih. AnNasa'i and Ibn Khuzaimah also recorded it. Abu Muslim asked Abu Zharr: "Which late-night prayer is the best?" He said: "I asked the Messenger of A...
