Deepthinking 65/66/67

 *Deepthinking 65*


_*I picked it.... 1*_


Assalamu alaikum warhamatullah wabarakatuhu 


My late mum may Allah azza wa jaal forgive her shortcomings will frown at us whenever we bring something that is not ours home..  The conversation is always the same:


Mum: Where did you get that from? 

Children: I picked it. 

Mum: Where did you pick it from? 

Children: I picked it from the ground? 

Mum: The ground doesn't manufacture things. Now return it to wherever you picked it from..

I don't want to see it in my house..  Return it right now..  


Unwillingly most times we return it, sometimes we dash it to our friends..  Or risk falling into trouble with mum to hide and secretly play with it..  


Hmmmm..  


Don't even tell my mum you picked money..  Money..  Na automatic return..  Aside the normal conversation, it's money don't grow on soils..  Return it.  No excuse! 


But mum use to add something..  


She be like..  If you leave it there, the real owner will come back to get it when they realize they have lost it🤔🤔🤔

Assalamu alaikum warhamatullah, 


Parents must be persistent in inculcating good habits in their children/wards no matter how adamant or stubborn the child/ward may be..  


OK..  It may take years to understand..  Children could be such..  With dua and it's just a matter of time..  In shaa Allah..  Children with good parenting somehow always come along.. 


Like I mentioned in my prior post on my mums habit with regards to her children bringing things home..  


Three days ago, I saw money on the ground and I remembered mum.. And I be like.. "if we all leave it and pass, the owner will return for it..", OK I looked at the money and passed..  


Behind me are two women.. Grown.. They must have observed I looked at something and changed direction like I didn't want anything to do with it..  Like some filth..  


Haven moved forward a bit I calculated they would have reached the point of the money..  So, I turned a bit..  Well...  They...

......Sub'hanaLlah, did they just pick the money? 


O yes! They certainly did..  It's not much though but humans can't be the same..  May Allah azza wa jaal guide us. Aameen. I though as I move on..  


Several meters away, haven walked for say 3-5minutes, I came across three kids..  Looking troubled one running towards my direction asking the other.. "please did you find it?" 


I called her, what are u looking for? For am certain it's the money I just missed..  Just needed to confirm..  Because all over her face is the look of "mummy will kill me today"


She replied..  It's money..  I said so and so amount? She replied in affirmative surprised..  I said sorry dear u have lost it someone has taken it already..  


Alhamdulillah I have some with me..  I just took it out and handed it to her and said becareful with your money.. And do not be too playful when on errands otherwise you will be punished at home.. 


If we leave things that ain't ours..  The owners will definitely come back for them..  Mum was right..  May Allah azza wa jaal grant her jannatl firdaus and forgive her shortcomings. Aameen 



_Concluded.._

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 ...

One of the question asked is can a Christian enter Jannah today?

 One of the question asked is can a Christian enter Jannah today? Alhamdulillah, it is clear from Quran and hadiths that any christian who dies believing Jesus is God or son of God and do not believe in prophet Muhammad Peace be Upon Him will enter hellfire. Allah says, Al-Ma'idah 5:17 They have certainly disbelieved who say that Allāh is Christ, the son of Mary. Say, "Then who could prevent Allāh at all if He had intended to destroy Christ, the son of Mary, or his mother or everyone on the earth?" And to Allāh belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them. He creates what He wills, and Allāh is over all things competent. Allah says, Al-Ma'idah 5:72 لَقَدۡ كَفَرَ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلۡمَسِيحُ ٱبۡنُ مَرۡيَمَۖ وَقَالَ ٱلۡمَسِيحُ يَٰبَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ ٱعۡبُدُواْ ٱللَّهَ رَبِّي وَرَبَّكُمۡۖ إِنَّهُۥ مَن يُشۡرِكۡ بِٱللَّهِ فَقَدۡ حَرَّمَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيۡهِ ٱلۡجَنَّةَ وَمَأۡوَىٰهُ ٱلنَّارُۖ وَمَا لِلظَّٰلِمِينَ مِنۡ أَنصَ...

PURIFICATION OF THE HEART

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm al-khamis, 20th day of Swafar 1447AH, Thursday, 14th August 2025. *_PURIFICATION OF THE HEART_*. BismilLah.  A sister asked me yesterday how we can purify ourselves to achieve the immense benefits mentioned in our reminder yesterday.  The command to purify our hearts from sins was an essential Islamic teaching ever since the early stages of the revelation in Mecca. This is known as “purification of the soul” (tazkiyyat an-nafs).   ALLAH Azzawajal says: He has succeeded who purifies the soul, and he has failed who corrupts the soul. Surah Ash-Shams 91:9-10. Also, ALLAH Azzawajal says: A day when there will be no benefit in wealth or children, but only in he who comes to ALLAH Azzawajal with a pure heart. Surah Ash-Shu’ara 26:88-89.  We learn from these verses that our success in the Hereafter depends upon the purification of our hearts in this life. We must purify our hearts from spiritual sins such as greed, malice, envy, arrog...
