The things u are taking for granted, countless other people are praying for

*The things u are taking for granted, countless other people are praying for*. 


Think about it... U have been blessed with Imaan- that means u have all the keys to success, happiness, peace & contentment already. There are billions out there who are lost ,their world feels dark & meaningless. Many are running around in circles of misery in pursuit of false success & happiness . Others are searching for that 'something' to fill that missing void inside their heart & to feel whole again.

But u & I? Alhamdulilah ! We have been blessed with Imaan already, with the recognition of the One Allah who fills our heart & makes us complete. 


Take moments throughout ur day to thank اللَّهُ Subhana wa Ta'ala for all that u have.


Alhamdulilah,

Shukran ya Rabb .You have blessed me with so much. 

You have showered me with countless favours, the most important being my Imaan & the privilege of being from the ummah of Your beloved Rasool sallallaahu alayhi wasallam.

Oh my most Generous Allah , You have provided the means for me to earn a halaal sustenance so that I could purchase for my family all the comforts I am enjoying.I have a comfortable home with a bed to sleep on whilst my brothers & sisters elsewhere have a thin mat or the cold floor as their beds. Every morning You awaken me to the chirping of the birds & a bright blue sky instead of falling bombs & a grey sky filled thickly with suffocating smoke. My fridge & cupboards are stocked with food & I don't have to stand in a queue of a thousand other hungry people waiting to be handed the only meal for the day. 

I beg Your forgiveness for being ungrateful, my most Merciful, Compassionate Rabb.

I will strive hard to show gratitude to You: 

with my limbs by using them in a way to please You,

with my mouth by using it to glorify You & to speak words of goodness & joy to all that cross my path

aиϑ with my heart by remembering You & drawing it close to You.


Allahumma a'inni alaa dhikrika, wa shukrika, wa husni 'ibaadatika


O Allah, help me remember You, to be grateful to You, aиϑ to worship You in an excellent manner." 



Mu'adh (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:


The Messenger of Allah sallallaahu alayhi wasallam took hold of my hand & said:


"O Mu'adh! By Allah I love you, so I advise you to never forget to recite after every prayer:


Allahumma a'inni alaa dhikrika, wa shukrika, wa husni 'ibaadatika


(O Allah, help me remember You, to be grateful to You, and to worship You in an excellent manner)."

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...
