HOW TO EXHIBIT TRUE/REAL PATIENCE

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arba'a, 18th Jumaadal Uulaa. (Wednesday, 22nd of December 2021). *_HOW TO EXHIBIT TRUE/REAL PATIENCE_*. BismilLah. 


There is the saying by the wise that;

A fish can say to the sea, you can never see my tears, because I am in the water. The sea can respond  back that, "But I can feel your tears, because you are within my heart." This is exactly how we are; No one will feel us except those who are truly close to our hearts and no one is closer to our hearts than ALLAH (The Most MERCIFUL) and HIS Messenger sallallahu alaihi. Are you facing any difficulties that you feel ALLAH has neglected you or not listening to you? Check out this true story.

Arwah bin al-Zubayr's leg was cut off because of a disease he suffered, on the same day the dearest of his seven sons died.

The dearest son to his heart died after a horse kick killed him.


Arwah said: "Allahumma lakal hamd, Inna lilLahi wa inna Ilaihi raaji'un."[Ya ALLAH! All thanks to You, we are from ALLAH and to HIM is our return ]. Allahu Akbar. 

You gave me 7 sons and took only one, gave me two legs & two hands but took only one leg. Did I hear you say ALLAHU AKBAR? That's true patience and trust in ALLAH. 


When ALLAH (Al-Hayyu, The Living) besets calamities on us, HE compensates us always by forgiving our most of our transgressions. When HE takes away something, HE always gives back better things only if we accept our loss in good faith.


Days passed, on one ultimate day Arwah went to the house of the Khalifa of the time where he saw a blind old Sheikh with a damaged face. The Khalifa said:  "Oh Arwah ask this Sheikh his story". 


Arwah asked the Sheikh as directed. The Sheikh said, "Ya Arwah! I used to live in a valley and in that valley there was nobody richer than me ( money, property and children wise). 


Within a single night, floods from heavy rains washed away my children, properties

and everything that I ever had. 

By the next day, after sunrise, I had only a small baby and a camel.


The camel ran away, and I ran after it but did not get far when I heard screams of a baby. I turned back only to see my baby's head in the mouth of a wolf. I tried saving the baby but the wolf had torn him apart. As I turned to go away, the wolf jumped and hit my face, that incidence made me blind, and damaged my face. Arwah asked the Sheikh, "What did you say after all this, Ya Sheikh? ".


The Sheikh replied: I said, "Allahumma Lakalhamd", You Graciously left with me a heart and a tongue that will always Glorify You". ALLAHU AKBAR. This is the story of real patience; 


these two people are among those who ALLAH (Al-Qayyuum, The Maintainer of Life) mentions thus:

ﺇﻧﻤﺎ ﻳﻮﻓﻰ ﺍﻟﺼﺎﺑﺮﻭﻥ ﺃﺟﺮﻫﻢ ﺑﻐﻴﺮ ﺣﺴﺎﺏ

( "only the patient will be paid back their rewards in full without measure").

What kind of calamity have you encountered that made you sad and

live in misery? Can you compare their misery to yours? They were patient and ALLAH Promises to Reward them; if we are impatient what reward do we hope to get? Why are you wasting your time going to so called Maalams and pastors who uses evil jinns to worsens your situation and damage your relationship with ALLAH.


We eat and drink to our fill, others wake up and go to sleep in the night with empty stomachs, others are on hospital beds unable to eat or drink, they are being fed through the tube, So "Fa bi ayyi aala'iRabbiku maa tukadhiban?" (WHICH OF THE FAVOURS OF YOUR LORD ( Allah SwT ) DO YOU DENY?).


*_May ALLAH (Al-Haadi, The Guider to Success) keeps guiding us all and protects us from any satanic influences_*. 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...
