Deepthinking 51/52

_*The Flour*_


Assalamu alaikum warhamatullah wabarakatuhu 


Have you pondered about flour and it's multiple uses..  


Let me not even talk of its varying source Shebi flour na flour..  

😊😊😊😊


Now on a serious note..  


Let's be flour specific.. 


I wish I could have a botanical name for it for easy recognition..  OK, forgive me for a general classification..  


*"White flour"*


Is it not the same flour that is used in making "Cin cin", that they use for "egg roll", "meatpie", "doughnut", "bread", "pastry", "spaghetti", "macaroni", "samosa", "shawarma", "waina", "amala"... Etc. The list goes on.. 


One thing, yet when subjected to different temperature, mixing technique, ingredients, mastering/cookery skills etc.  It becomes a new thing.. 


Attracting different people..  For example, some appreciate bread but don't do good with cupcake. You may love spaghetti and not a fan of macaroni..etc  


SubhanaAllah..  


This is not a cookery class..  I just want to use it to make a point..  


Like flours..  So are children..  


Children are all humans yet will grow to have different behaviours, character, moral values etc


This depends on you as a parent and the environment they are exposed to..  


We worry about those to come forgetting that it's what we make of them that becomes of them..  


It's more of who we are than who they are..  


As the nabiyy salallahu alaihi wa salaam was reported to have said.. 


...that Allah said, _*"I created my servants in the right religion but devils made them go astray".*_ 


_*The Prophet (PBUH) was also reported to have said, "Each child is born in a state of "Fitrah", then his parents make him a Jew, Christian or a Zoroastrian, the way an animal gives birth to a normal offspring. Have you noticed any that were born mutilated?"*_


_*(Collected by Al-Bukhaaree and Muslim).*_


Our children's behavior is simply a mirror of us, or and our immediate society..  


Like a flour, you can't have a "Cincin" mixture, fry a "cincin" way and get a "meatpie" or "gurasa".. 


Watch your child upbringing skill and pay serious attention to the deen. 


May Allah subhanahu wa taala grant us all understanding..  Aameen Aameen Aameen

*"My busy Schedules..."*


Assalamu alaikum warhamatullah wabarakatuhu..  


Isn't it amazing how we could be so busy in life that we couldn't even realize the good things we miss...??? 


I am this at work..  I am that..  No one can do it, if not me..  I have to be there..  My boss needs me..  I have to fulfil those task..  


We get so busy drunk that..  We miss out on those that matter..  


Our Family, friends loved ones...  


We in fact miss out on making ourselves better..  


We don't upgrade ourselves, our knowledge and our deen..  


We just get crazy about some other jobs...  


Let it get into your subconscious that only Allah is irreplaceable..  


As for you and I..  If our place of work gets someone better..  We are off..  


If we die, the life goes on..  In fact your boss won't shut down..  


Don't break down..  Relax..  

Have time for yourself..  

Seek knowledge..  

Learn your deen..  


Spend valuable time with your family..  


Your good friends miss you..  


Your loved ones could be passing through pain and may get better with you around..  


And most importantly..  Your busy schedules are not helping in upbringing your children the best way..  


Reflect before it is too late..  


Never be too busy to connect with those and things that matters..  Life is too short..  


It's all about priorities..  You can still be diligent, hardworking and effectively give result at work..  Yet, your family won't suffer..

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...
