True life story

 True life story


There was Mosque in Syria and close to it was a railway for trains. Just a few minutes after Isha prayer, we heard a cry of a young man, shouting and saying a  train has crushed someone. We gathered at the scene and saw the victim. He was a young man of 19 years. He was cut into two, and the train took the left side of the man. He was still alive (Glorified be Allah, Who sustains and protects all that exist). The other half of his body was shaking, his heart was beating, and he was breathing as could be seen from his lungs. He was alive still! Someone went close to him, held his head, and whispered in his ears, "say Laa ilaaha illalLaah, say Laa ilaaha illalLaah". The halfbody of the young man was shaking, and he uttered "Ashhadu allaa ilaaha illalLaah, wa Ashhadu anna Muhammadar Rasulullah" repeatedly. The halfbody stopped shaking, and his soul departed to its Creator (Allah). The young man was dead. He died with Laa ilaaha illallaah as his last words. The people called for a stretcher to carry his remains. The night was very dark. The people switched on the lights of their handsets. They searched his clothes to get his address. One of them shouted "Yaa Allah! He was a Christian. See cross on his hand!


They murmured in confusion," he died after he uttered) Laa ilaaha illallaah. Do we leave him, so that his family would bury him in a christian way?" They carried the corpse, crying. Suddenly, his father appeared from the neighborhood. When his father saw them and the dead body, he nodded his head and said while crying "you would be surprised regarding what I shall tell you".


He said: my son loved listening to the Holy Quran so much, though he was a christian. He loved listening to the Quran (The Book of the Muslims). I usually entered his room and would find him with an earpiece. I would ask him, what are you listening to? He would say, I was listening to music. When I listen to the earpiece, I would hear that he was listening to the Quran. I attempted to stop him, but could not succeed. He told me that I couldn't stop him no matter what I would do.


All the people around were looking at each other happily & crying. They said to the bereaved father, your son died believing in Oneness of Allah. He uttered Laa ilaaha illallaah as his last words. The bereaved father said: "Ashhadu allaa ilaaha illallaah, wa Ashhadu anna Muhammadar Rasulullah ". The night was for jubilation and not mourning! The people were uttering Laa ilaaha illallaah. The corpse was buried in the Muslim cemetery.


O Allah, grant us a beautiful end in this life.


This is a true story narrated by Shaikh Muhammad Saawiy at a lecture.


The Prophet (SAW) has said the truth: "...... man would be a believer in the morning and turn to disbelief in the evening".


This is one of the beautiful messages I received today.            Forwarded as received.... Make Listening to Qur'an (with Translation) your habit Oh  Muslims.

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...
