*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 ...

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...

THE MUSLIM WOMAN AND HER OWN SELF

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm athalaatha, 3rd day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Tuesday, 26th August 2025. *_THE MUSLIM WOMAN AND HER OWN SELF_*. BismilLah.  Islam encourages Muslims in general to stand out among people, readily distinguishable by their dress, appearance and behaviour, so that they will be a good example, worthy of the great message that they bring to humanity. According to the hadith narrated by the great Sahabi Ibn al-Hanzaliyyah, the Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam ) told his Companions, when they were travelling to meet some brothers in faith: "You are going to visit your brothers, so repair your saddles and make sure that you are dressed well, so that you will stand out among people like an adornment, for ALLAH (SWT) does not love ugliness." Reported by Imam Abu Dawud, 4/83, in Kitab al-libas, bab ma ja'a fi isbal al-izar. The Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) considered an unkempt and careless appearance, and scruffy clothes and furnishings, to be...
