*THE GLAD TIDINGS*

*You will be with those whom you love*

*Translation:*

السلام عليكم و رحمة الله و بركاته 
Good morning! 
Glad tidings!
A great glad tiding that the Sahaba rejoiced with! 
Anas رضي الله عنه said _"We did not rejoice with any thing more after the advent of Islam, than this Hadith"_ 

[Anas رضي الله عنه narrates]
_A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and he said "When will the Hour be?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "What have you prepared for it?" The man said, *"Nothing, except that I love Allah and His Apostle."* The Prophet ﷺ said, _*"You will be with those whom you love."*_ _We had never been so glad as we were on hearing that saying of the Prophet (i.e., "You will be with those whom you love.") Therefore, I love the Prophet, Abu Bakr and Umar, and I hope that I will be with them because of my love for them though my deeds are not similar to theirs._
[Sahih al-Bukhari 3688]
_
This is exactly how we should be as well. 
Love the righteous, perhaps Allah ﷻ will make you among them! 
A man will be raised on Qiyamah with whomever he loves! 
_
It's ironic, because we know the reality and the extent of our love for Prophet ﷺ, we don't rejoice! We only remain hopeful to be truthful with our love!
By Allah ﷻ, When we hear this Hadith, we realise that *we love and idolise the wrong people!*
_
And as a stark contrast, the Sahaba رضي الله عنهم held a deep love, such a love that was so sincere and truthful, that when they heard this Hadith they rejoiced! 
_
And it is narrated, by Anas رضي الله عنه that they rejoiced at this Hadith more than anything! Because they knew that they loved the Prophet ﷺ more than themselves! 
_
In another Hadith 
The Prophet ﷺ said _"None of you truly believe [Perfected their Iman] until he loves me more than himself, his children and his parents"_
[Sahih al-Bukhārī 15, Sahih Muslim 44]
_
And to Love him means to emulate him ﷺ.
To send Salaam and Salawaat upon him ﷺ!
His actions ﷺ!
His appearance ﷺ!
His mannerisms ﷺ!
His mission ﷺ!
And to emulate him ﷺ above all others! 
_
This is true love!
True love is blind!
True love is unquestioning!
This is how we should be the Sunnah! 
An attitude of 
*سَمعًا و طَاعًا*

_Hear and obey!_
_
May Allah ﷻ make us among those who truly love and follow our beloved Prophet ﷺ
*آمين يا رب العالمين*

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...
