SEEKING KNOWLEDGE BEFORE ANY ACTS OF WORSHIP

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum ath-thalaatha 13th day of Jumaadal Aakhir.. (Tuesday 26th January 2021).

*_SEEKING KNOWLEDGE BEFORE ANY ACTS OF WORSHIP_*. Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem.


Imam Bukhari may ALLAH  be pleased with him wrote a chapter heading "Knowledge comes before Statements and Actions". It is obligatory upon us not to act except with knowledge, and not worship ALLAAH except with knowledge, so we do not worship ALLAAH Subhanahu any how, as we wish or following desires. If you don't know anything especially when it comes to acts of worship then please always ask students of knowledge around you so that we can worship with knowledge without wasting our time. 


We know ALLAH mentioned in the Qur'an in Suuratul Ankaboot verse 45 going that salaat alone should be able to stop us from committing zina and all wrong ways of life if we perform it properly, so imagine your salaat doesn't stop you from fornication, stealing, gambling etc, it basically means your salaat is deficient, not sufficient or not been accepted as such it makes no difference in your life. What then makes you a Muslim? This is serious isn't it. Our beloved messenger of ALLAH once warned that if we knew what he knows, we will cry more and smile little but SubhaanAllah today we don't even smile much, we rather laugh more as if we don't know death!!! and laughing with mouth and teath showing is a dislike act in Islam. ALLAH is pure and accept nothing but the best. May ALLAH have mercy on our ignorance. Aameen. 


*_May ALLAH safe us from humiliation in dunya and aakhira_*. Aameen.

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 ...

Friday and it's dignity.

 Friday and it's dignity. Alhamdulillah, Allah says, Al-Jumu'ah 62:9 يَآأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ إِذَا نُودِيَ لِلصَّلَوٰةِ مِن يَوۡمِ ٱلۡجُمُعَةِ فَٱسۡعَوۡاْ إِلَىٰ ذِكۡرِ ٱللَّهِ وَذَرُواْ ٱلۡبَيۡعَۚ ذَٰلِكُمۡ خَيۡرࣱ لَّكُمۡ إِن كُنتُمۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ O you who have believed, when [the adhān] is called for the prayer on the day of Jumuʿah [Friday], then proceed to the remembrance of Allāh and leave trade. That is better for you, if you only knew. Friday is the best day of the week because it was the day Adam was created, the day he entered paradise and the day he was removed from paradise. it was also the day he died and the hour(qiyaamah) will not come except on this day. Sahih. It was narrated from Aws bin Aws that: The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Whoever washes (ghassala) and performs ghusl, comes early to the masjid and sits near the imam and does not engage in idle talk, he will have for every step he takes (the reward of) a year's worth of good deeds, fasting it and...

The story of taqwa

 The story of taqwa. Taqwa means fear of Allah. There once lived a young woman who was very beautiful lady and had all the qualities a man needed. She was well covered and oneday ,she was attacked with her families. This woman was taken away and brought to a man who was the bandits leader. As she was brought, the man wanted to sleep with her as she was so sad and in pain. As she undressed and coming to her, she said fear Allah and know death can come to you now. If you have a mother or sister like me, don't disgrace and destroy my honor for I won't forgive you  The leader immediately remembered he had a sister he loved a lot and so he quickly stopped and dressed and said to the lady, you can go. All the bandits were amazed of what their leader did. Three days later,the man whose sister was there and everyone in the sister knew her brother was wicked man. So every man was sacred. So a stranger walking by saw his sister and he felt in love with her. She went to her and said I wa...
