Deepthinking 75/76

 *Deepthinking 75*


Assalamu alaikum warhamatullah wabarakatuhu, 


_*Combining prayers 1*_


Was trying to catch up with ishaa prayers as I could hear the Imaam from the loudspeaker from afar..  


Definitely not the first or second rakaat as the recitation was silent. So, was using a public tap for ablution. This little boy got lost in his thoughts while performing ablution. 


"Lafiya?" - Is everything alright? I asked. 


With a smile on his face he asked..  Do I pray solaatl asr first,   then Maghrib before ishaa or just pray ishaa and leave the rest?? 


No dear, you must pray what you didn't pray first..  Pray Al-Asr, then Maghrib before Ishaa..  


OK..  Thank you, he said..  


But,..  


How come you missed so much? What got this busy that you missed prayers??  I asked..

_*Combining prayers 2*_


Only Allah knows where this innocent child copied this from were my thoughts..  


Anyway, he replied, "Nothing!".. Just like most of us who at the end of the day couldn't provide a valid reason for missing the prayers we missed..  


He immediately added, "and they said its not good to miss prayers, right?" , "they said Allah loves us to pray quick, right?" 


Yes, I replied..  Praying on time is one of the best of deeds! 


I also added.. "Let me ask you this.. Did you eat this morning, did you eat lunch? Have u eaten your dinner? He replied in affirmative, Yes! I have..  


So, I said..  Why didn't you wait till now, then you combine all.. Breakfast, then lunch, then dinner? 🤔


Kai! He exclaimed! I can't. I will die....  

😃😃😃


I said doing things at the right time matters. You take breakfast in the morning not night, lunch in the afternoon not morning and dinner is served in the evening not morning. 


Eating all at once won't stop the Hunger when the time for the other comes. 


Similarly, praying at right time, we are giving our soul its food, nourishing it at its right time. 


So, always pray on time..  


In shaa Allah I will. I had rounded up my ablution. I left. 



May Allah azza wa jaal grant us guidance and forgive our shortcomings. Aameen Aameen. 


He may be a kid..  Isn't it unfortunate that as adults..  We do same? 😥😥


Astaghfirullah.

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...
