DO NOT FEAR THE CORONAVIRUS. FEAR ALLAH AND OBEY HIM.

Assalaamu Alaikum warahmatullah.
DO NOT FEAR THE CORONAVIRUS. FEAR ALLAH AND OBEY HIM. Read through carefully please. BismilLah.

The truth of the current matter is, our chances of dying as a result of the coronavirus is very, very slim. Not even up to 1%. But our chances of dying any moment from now and from any causes is 100% sure. Why then all this noise and the hyper sensational comments about the disease or the endemic?

Why not fear ALLAH swt who can cause death or give life and you fear this tiny creature?, that may not even last for long on this earth? Coronavirus is deadly, but is it new thing for people to die from any disease?

Be as a Muslim who knows how ALLAH swt does HIS work and how ALLAH swt send some signs to wake us up from our rudeness, arrogance and heedless life.

ALLAH swt says in the Noble Quran:
( وَمَا نُرۡسِلُ بِٱلۡأَيَـٰتِ إِلَّا تَخۡوِيفً۬ا (٥٩)
"And We sent not signs except to warn, and to make them afraid or scare them (of destruction or death). (17:59).

Whether coronavirus is a made virus, or a naturally generated disease, all is because of human error. And all cannot happen unless by the wills of ALLAH swt.

We Muslims have faith in ALLAH swt, and we believe in all what our scriptures narrates to us. Read the following verses and advise yourself.

1. ALLAH swt says:

مَآ أَصَابَ مِن مُّصِيبَةٍ۬ فِى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَلَا فِىٓ أَنفُسِكُمۡ إِلَّا فِى ڪِتَـٰبٍ۬ مِّن قَبۡلِ أَن نَّبۡرَأَهَآ‌ۚ إِنَّ ذَٲلِكَ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ يَسِيرٌ۬ (٢٢)

"No calamity befalls on the earth or in yourselves but is inscribed in the Book of Decrees (Al-Lauh Al-Mahfûz), before We bring it into existence. Verily, that is easy for ALLAH. (57:22)

2. ALLAH swt says again:

مَآ أَصَابَ مِن مُّصِيبَةٍ إِلَّا بِإِذۡنِ ٱللَّهِ‌ۗ وَمَن يُؤۡمِنۢ بِٱللَّهِ يَہۡدِ قَلۡبَهُ ۥ‌ۚ وَٱللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَىۡءٍ عَلِيمٌ۬ (١١)

No calamity befalls, but by the Leave [ Decision and Qadar (Divine Preordainments) of ALLAH, and whosoever believes in ALLAH,  He guides his heart to the true Faith with certainty, that what has befallen him was already written for him by LLAH from the Qadar (Divine Preordainments)], And ALLAH is the All-Knower of everything. (64:11)

3. Another verse says:

 (سَنُرِيهِمۡ ءَايَـٰتِنَا فِى ٱلۡأَفَاقِ وَفِىٓ أَنفُسِہِمۡ حَتَّىٰ يَتَبَيَّنَ لَهُمۡ)

We will show them Our Signs in the universe, and in their own selves, until it becomes manifest to them that this (the Qur'ân or ALLAH swt) is the truth.(41:53)

So, as a Muslim, you must know all these verses and remain calm, while taking precautious measures to protect yourself and your family. You don't have to get scared, be afraid and play jokes with issues like this. Joking, with coronavirus is childish and foolish. And being afraid or scared about it, is a weakness in faith.

As a Muslim, this is what  you must do.

1. Renew your faith in ALLAH. Fear Allah swt and not coronavirus.

2. Pray regularly (always) and pray for Allah's protections.

3. Listen to what your country's health institutions say, as

regards to how to stay away from contracting the disease (at least)

4. Listen to what scholar say. In times like this, how to stay in good faith, or strong "Iman" and how to supplicate to ALLAH swt.

5. Prayers alone will not save you, and taking precautious measures alone too, cannot save you. you need both.

The holy Quran says:

(قُل لَّن يُصِيبَنَآ إِلَّا مَا ڪَتَبَ ٱللَّهُ لَنَا هُوَ مَوۡلَٮٰنَا‌ۚ وَعَلَى ٱللَّهِ فَلۡيَتَوَڪَّلِ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنُونَ (٥١))

"say O Muhammad (saww) nothing can harm us, unless what ALLAH has decreed for us, HE is our protector, and on HIM all believers must put their trust on (9:51)

But another verse also says:

(وَلَقَدۡ أَرۡسَلۡنَآ إِلَىٰٓ أُمَمٍ۬ مِّن قَبۡلِكَ فَأَخَذۡنَـٰهُم بِٱلۡبَأۡسَآءِ وَٱلضَّرَّآءِ لَعَلَّهُمۡ يَتَضَرَّعُونَ (٤٢))

"Verily, We sent (Messengers) to many nations before you (O Muhammad saww). And We seized them with extreme poverty (or loss in wealth) and loss in health with calamities so that they might believe with humility. (5:42)

This is not the first time epidemic or pandemic is occurring on this planet, and never shall it be the last. All what you have to do as a Muslim is to believe its by the leave of ALLAH swt. And if Allah says, you will be affected, you will be affected and if ALLAH says, you wont be affected you will not be affected "In shaa ALLAH".

COVID-19 or no COVID-19, death can visit us anyone of us at anytime. Why the panic and the noise then? Only that, don't joke with it, don't do politics with it, don't mock at the countries which are affected. That's senseless, wicked, and lack of "Iman" to joke with coronavirus or play politics with it.

اللهم انا نسالك العفو والعافية في الدنيا و الاخرة. اللهم انا نعوذ بك من جهد البلاء وسوء القضاء وسيئ الاسقام وقنا شرما قضيت.

"Our Lord, we ask you forgiveness and well-being in this world and in the hereafter. Our Lord, we seek refuge in you from the struggles of evil calamities, from the evil of any of your decree. we seek refuge in you from any evil sickness and save us from the evils of what you decreed. 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...

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...
