*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)." 


[Abu Dawud]

GIVE CHARITY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Ath-thalaatha. 28th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Tuesday 7th May 2024). *_GIVE CHARITY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD_*. Aameen.  Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: The Prophet (SallallahuAlaihiWasallam) said, "Charity is obligatory everyday on every joint of a human being.* If one helps a person in matters concerning his riding animal by helping him to ride on it or by lifting his luggage on to it, all these will be regarded as charity. A good word, and every step one takes to offer the compulsory congregational prayer is regarded as charity; and guiding somebody on the road is regarded as charity." [Sahih Al-Bukhari, 4/2891]. To show gratitude to ALLAH for keeping your body safe and sound, you should give in charity or do charitable deeds. Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: ALLAH'S Messenger (sallallahuAlaihiWasallam) said, "The strong is not the one who overcomes the people by his strength, but the strong is the one w

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 p
