*LOVE FOR KNOWLEDGE*

*Gaining Knowledge Is An Obligation*

Allah ﷻ says in the Qur'an:

 

*يَرۡفَعِ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ مِنكُمۡ وَٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُواْ ٱلۡعِلۡمَ دَرَجَٰتٖۚ* 


_Allah will raise those who have believed among you and those who were given knowledge, by degrees._

[al-Mujaadilah 58:11] ⁣

*وَقُل رَّبِّ زِدۡنِی عِلۡمࣰا*


_“and say: ‘My Lord! Increase me in knowledge’”⁣_

[Ta-Ha 20:114] ⁣

⁣__

*قُلۡ هَلۡ یَسۡتَوِی ٱلَّذِینَ یَعۡلَمُونَ وَٱلَّذِینَ لَا یَعۡلَمُونَۗ إِنَّمَا یَتَذَكَّرُ أُو۟لُوا۟ ٱلۡأَلۡبَـٰبِ*


_“Say: ‘Are those who know equal to those who know not?’ It is only men of understanding who will remember (i.e. get a lesson from Allâh’s Signs and Verses)”⁣_

[al-Zumar 39:9] ⁣

Anas ibn Malik رضي الله عنه reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:

_“Seeking knowledge is an obligation upon every Muslim.”_

[Sunan Ibn Mājah 224, Grade: Sahih]

Narrated by Abu Hurairah رضي الله عنه:⁣

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: _"Whoever takes a path upon which to obtain knowledge, Allah makes the path to Paradise easy for him."⁣_

[Abu 'Esa (At-Tirmidhi) said this hadeeth is hasan (good) in Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2646]⁣

Abud-Darda رضي الله عنه reported:⁣

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, _"He who follows a path in quest of knowledge, Allah will make the path of Jannah easy to him. The angels lower their wings over the seeker of knowledge, being pleased with what he does. The inhabitants of the heavens and the earth and even the fish in the depth of the oceans seek forgiveness for him. The superiority of the learned man over the devout worshipper is like that of the full moon to the rest of the stars (i.e., in brightness). The learned are the heirs of the Prophets who bequeath neither dinar nor dirham but only that of knowledge; and he who acquires it, has in fact acquired an abundant portion."⁣_

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 ...

The questions of the grave?

 The questions of the grave? Alhamdulillah, every Muslim should have belief that there is questions in the grave. As reported in hadith of the trials of the grave like that of the dajjal Two angels that will appear to. Person, Munkar and Nakir As reported in hadith, It was narrated form Al Bara bin Azib that the Prophet said: Allah will keep firm those who believe, with the world that stands firm in this world, and in the Hereafter.

That is what is (the meaning of) His saying: Allah will keep firm those who believe, with the word that stands firm in this world, and in the Hereafter". Sunan an-Nasa'i 2057. Abd Allah (b. Mas’ud) told that when the evening came, the prophet (May peace be upon him) would say: we have come to the evening, and in the evening the dominion belongs to Allah: “Praise b...

As Time passes

 ╔✽̤̥̈̊‎​​ As Time passes ✽̤̈̊╗ Abdullah bin Mas’ud & said: “Indeed I hate to see a man idle, neither working for this world nor for the Hereafter.”  Hasan Basri sé said: “O son of Adam, indeed you are only but a number of days. Whenever a day passes, a part of  you leaves with it.” Hassan said: “I have met (pious) people who are more miserly with their time than they are with their wealth.”  Hassan also said in a sermon, “Do not let the temporary and little charms of this world distract you and entice you...and do not say tomorrow and tomorrow, for indeed you do not know when you will be heading to Allah.” ..  •══༻  For more updates ✅ #MotivationalMoments ✅ #PearlofMarriage  ✅ #PearlsofIslam  ✅ #ASML
