THE SUNNĀHS OF LEAVING AND COMING BACK HOME

 *THE SUNNĀHS OF LEAVING AND COMING BACK HOME*


An Nawawi said: «it is preferred to say (in the name of Allah) and repeat (remembrance) of Allah frequently.


 1-Mentioning regards to Allah: the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: «when a man mention Allah while entering his house and when he eat, the devil say to his mates (there is no food or shelter for this night for you) « Narrated by Imam Muslim.


 2-Entrance Du’aa: the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: « say 


 اَللهُمَّ اِنّيْ اَسْاَلُكَ خَيْرَ الْمَوْلَجِ وَ خَيْرَ المَخْرَجِ بِسْمِ اللهِ وَ بِسْمِ اللهِ لَجْنَا وخَرَجْنا وَعَلى ربِّنَا تَوَكَّلْنَا


 (O Allah I ask you the best out of entrance and the best out of exit, I enter in the name of Allah and exit in the name of Allah, I put my trust in Allah) then salute his family.» narrated by Abu Dawood. This is the way a man depends on Allah while entering or exiting, which keeps him always connected to Allah.


 3-Using Sewak: Imam Muslim narrated that the Prophet (peace be upon him) used Sewak while taking his first steps into home.


 4-Salutation: Allah says: «So when you enter houses, salute one another (Literally: salute yourselves) with a greeting from the Providence of Allah, blessed and good». (An Noor :61) Supposing that a Muslim who goes for prayers in the Mosque practice these Sunnas; that would make 20 Sunnas a day.


 Going out, a Muslim should say this du’aa :


 بِـسْـمِ الـلـهِ تَـوَكَّـلْـتُ عَـلَـى الـلـهِ لاَ حَـوْلَ وَلاَ قُــوَّةَ اِلاَّ بِـالـلـهِ


 (in the name of Allah, I put my trust in Allah, Whatever Allah wishes will be; there is no strength except from Allah) so he gets protected, secured, guarded and the devil steps away from him) narrated by At Termithi and Abu Dawood.


 A Muslim goes out and returns home many times a day; for prayers, work or for whatever and every time he applies these sunnas, he gets great reward from Allah as he submits to His Prophet’s (PBUH) teachings.


 The outcome of the application of these sunnas:


 1- A Muslim gets protected from whatever evil he gets in touch with.


 2- A Muslim gets secured from whatever evil that might hurt him.


 3- A Muslim gets guided and guarded in everything either divine or secular.

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...

BEST TIME FOR TAHAJJUD

 *BEST TIME FOR TAHAJJUD* It is best to delay this prayer to the last third portion of the night. Abu Hurairah reports that the Messenger of Allah said: "Our Lord descends to the lowest heaven during the last third of the night, inquiring: 'Who will call on Me so that I may respond to him? Who is asking something of Me so I may give it to him? Who is asking for My forgiveness so I may forgive him?"' This is related by the group. 'Amr ibn Abasah reports that he heard the Prophet say: "The closest that a slave comes to his Lord is during the middle of the latter portion of the night. If you can be among those who remember Allah, the Exalted One, at that time then do so." This is related by al-Hakim who grades it sahih according to Muslim's standards, and at-Tirmizhi calls it hasan sahih. AnNasa'i and Ibn Khuzaimah also recorded it. Abu Muslim asked Abu Zharr: "Which late-night prayer is the best?" He said: "I asked the Messenger of A...
