Deepthinking 1/2

 *Deepthinking 1*


_*My wedding date 1*_


Assalamu alaikum warhamatullah wabarakatuhu..  


Hope we all are in the best of health and conditions..  Quite some time..  


Don't be too carried away by the heading..  Am not announcing any wedding date 😜😜


But.. 🤔🤔


How did we(married) feel the day our wedding date was announced??  


And to the single, how will you feel the day your wedding date is fixed??  


We become excited..  I mean super excited..  


And begin to prepare for that big day..  As they say "it's *my day*" and it's "once in a life time".. 


SubhanaAllah, let me begin with the parents..  Gone were the days when parents will seat their child and educate them on how to live a blissful marital life..  


"O son, if you want to live peacefully with a woman, you must exercise patience and you must not comment on everything..  You must ignore the little mistakes..  You are the head. You must now take important decisions not just for yourself..  But for the family.." etc..  


And to the daughters..  


"O daughter you will soon go to your husband's house, be gentle, calm and peaceful..  He is your head and you must obey and respect him at all time.. You must seek his permissions at all times and ensure he is pleased with you..  

Men are men, sometimes you may need to clean his mess. Your husband is your head, even when you disagree with him.. Tell him in a beautiful manner" etc.. 


Perhaps the last time most of us saw or witness this was in a movie... 😏😏


Even movies these days I doubt if they remember things like this..  😏😏


Preparation for *wedding* is now a substitute for preparation for *marriage*..  


Wedding is a day or two event..  marriage is an institution..  


If only we will worry more about our marriage (the aftermath of wedding) than we worry about our wedding; parties, ceremonies etc.. 


Couples will live a happier life..  


Weddings are no longer once in a life time, because we seem to have deviated from the path..  


You see marriages collapsing weeks, months and a year or two after the millions and thousands spent...  


And at 30 some sisters have already married more than one man and some men have divorced even 2 different women..  



May Allah subhanahu wa taala grant us mercy and understanding..  Aameen Aameen Aameen

Assalamu alaikum warhamatullah wabarakatuhu 


Like every other act of ibaadah that we should learn and practice according to the shariah..  


Marriage is no exception..  We need to learn the concept, practice according to the teachings of the nabiyy salallahu alaihi wa salaam..  


The nabiyy salallahu alaihi wa salaam was reported to have stated that marriage is amongst his sunnah..  


Do you practice the sunnah of the nabiyy salallahu alaihi wa salaam Your Own way?? 🤔🤔


Parents should therefore understand that it is more important for one to know what is required of newly married couples in the institution of marriage..  Preparing their mindset on how to coexist, appreciate, love and most importantly exercise patience in marriages..  


Don't just tell the young to get married...  Let them know that they need to learn to make sacrifices and make decisions that will affect others hence they should be considerate..  


Don't exhaust too much time in preparing for wedding, the ashoebi, anko, parties etc..  


Forgetting to educate your child on what is expected of him or her in the new journey he or she is about to embark on..  


May Allah subhanahu wa taala amend that which broken in our marriages..  Grant us guidance and understanding..  Aameen Aameen 


Getting married is not the problem... 


Remaining in it is the issue. 

And this we need to learn! 👌


May Allah subhanahu wa taala grant us pious spouses..  Aameen 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...
