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..

*Deepthinking 76*


_*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.

GIVE CHARITY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Ath-thalaatha. 28th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Tuesday 7th May 2024). *_GIVE CHARITY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD_*. Aameen.  Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: The Prophet (SallallahuAlaihiWasallam) said, "Charity is obligatory everyday on every joint of a human being.* If one helps a person in matters concerning his riding animal by helping him to ride on it or by lifting his luggage on to it, all these will be regarded as charity. A good word, and every step one takes to offer the compulsory congregational prayer is regarded as charity; and guiding somebody on the road is regarded as charity." [Sahih Al-Bukhari, 4/2891]. To show gratitude to ALLAH for keeping your body safe and sound, you should give in charity or do charitable deeds. Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: ALLAH'S Messenger (sallallahuAlaihiWasallam) said, "The strong is not the one who overcomes the people by his strength, but the strong is the one w

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 p
