 The dunya is nothing. Alhamdulillah, today we are dying for dunya and people are neglecting Allah s.w.t to seek for wealth, mansions, car and selling their deen. This is the life we live today. As narrated in the Hadith, Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah(s.a.w) said: Rush to do good deeds. A Fitnah will occur that is like a portion of the dark night, morning will come upon a man as a believer, who will be a disbeliever in the evening, and evening will come upon a believer, who will be a disbeliever in the morning. One of them will sell his religion for goods of the world."" Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2195. As we can see today, people are selling their religion to please people or the world. Today a woman can commit Zina for iPhone 14 or for a car and that. A person cannot pray at work because he fears his boss or colleague. This is the life we live. Allah s.w.t praised some people in Quran saying, An-Nur 24:37 [Are] men whom neither commerce nor sale distracts from th

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt. 7th day of Jumaadal Aakhir 1444AH (Saturday 31st December. 2022). *_WILL I BE PUNISHED FOR NEGLECTING SUNNAH ACT?_*. BismilLah.  The word Sunnah has two meanings: the path of guidance, which is the meaning in many ahaadeeth, such as the words of the Prophet (peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him): Whoever turns away from my Sunnah has nothing to do with me. Meaning if you intentionally choose to abandon sunnah acts of worship, you will be sinful and may end up been deviated to kufur by worldly satanic influences.  What the scholars of usool and fiqh call mustahabb (encouraged), are deeds for which the one who does them will be rewarded, but the one who does not do them will not deserve to be punished for that. Examples include al-Sunan al-Rawaatib (Sunnah prayers which the Prophet (peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him) did regularly), Salaat al-Duhaa and so on. Therefore, a person will not be punished for not doing things which are Sun

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat. 6th day of Jumaadal Aakhir 1444AH (Friday 30th December. 2022). *_STOP COMPLAINING AND GIVE  SADAQA EVEN IF BY SMILING_*. BismilLah. The last and Final Messenger of ALLAH (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said, “There is a (compulsory) Sadaqa (charity) to be given for every joint of the human body (as a sign of gratitude to ALLAH) every day that the sun rises. To judge justly between two persons is regarded as Sadaqa, and to help a man concerning his riding animal by helping him to ride it or by lifting his luggage onto it, is also regarded as Sadaqa, and (saying) a good word is also Sadaqa, and every step taken on one's way to offer the compulsory prayer (in the Masjid) is also Sadaqa and to remove a harmful thing from the way is also Sadaqa.” [Sahih Bukhari]. So you see, sadaqah is not just giving money. Appreciate what you've got from ALLAH and stop complaining to help you gain more from ALLAH.  Once a person came to an Alim (scholar

BismilLah.  Minor sins are easy and it takes absolute fear of ALLAAH to stay away from them. From Free mixing to free thinking, even those of us who you think should know are not left out including me. No one is perfect but we can only be better through our efforts to repent, regret and seek forgiveness as ALLAH loves to forgive Alhamdulillah. Your best friend is the one who can point out your mistakes and errors so never feel upset if someone points to your error or mistakes we must correct others with wisdom without making it feel like mockery or insult.  Sheitaan is our enemy and he has lots of traps to weaken our eemaan. For example, many have become so engrossed in the music that they hardly pay attention to the recitation of the Qur'an. The music has corrupted their hearts against listening to Qur'an. From so-called R&B, Reg

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arba'a. 4th day of Jumaadal Aakhir 1444AH (Wednesday 28th December. 2022). *_ATTENTION, ALLAH IS CALLING_*. BismilLah.  ALLAH says in Qur'an 2:21-22 يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاسُ ٱعۡبُدُواْ رَبَّكُمُ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَكُمۡ وَٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِكُمۡ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَتَّقُونَ  O mankind! Worship your Lord (ALLAH), Who created you and those who were before you so that you may acquire Taqwa (ALLAH consciousness, by helping you to stay away from any form of disobedience to ALLAH).  ALLAH mentioned HIS Oneness in divinity and stated that HE has favoured HIS servants by bringing us to life after we did not exist. HE also surrounded us with blessings, both hidden and apparent In verse 22 ALLAH says; ٱلَّذِى جَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلۡأَرۡضَ فِرَٰشًا وَٱلسَّمَآءَ بِنَآءً وَأَنزَلَ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءً فَأَخۡرَجَ بِهِۦ مِنَ ٱلثَّمَرَٰتِ رِزۡقًا لَّكُمۡۖ فَلَا تَجۡعَلُواْ لِلَّهِ أَندَادًا وَأَنتُمۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ  Who has made the earth a resting place for you, HE made the e

  THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Ath-thalaatha. 3rd day of Jumaadal Aakhir 1444AH (Tuesday 27th December. 2022). *_PURIFICATION OF OUR HEARTS_*. BismilLah  One of the most beautiful, most soothing and most heartwarming moments you could have is when you realize how much ALLAH, The Most High, is protecting and taking care of your own heart. This is so much felt in Qur’anic verses where ALLAH (Al-Muqeet, The Nourisher) is telling us how HE wants us to speak to one another…Like here for an example: ” ... And speak to people good [words] …” (Qur’an 2: 83). The Arabic Aayah actually refers to good words as “husna” which also means beautiful. So ALLAH is instructing us to use not only good, but beautiful words with people. Note also here: “And tell My servants to say that which is best…” ( Qur’an 17: 53).  Here, HE is making us carefully think about each word we utter, so that we do not just speak our minds in a careless/rude way claiming that this is our spontaneous reaction. Rather, HE

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum al-ithnayn. 2nd day of Jumaadal Aakhir 1444AH (Monday 26th December. 2022). *_FRIENDSHIP AND INFLUENCES_*. BismilLaah ALLAH the Exalted says in the Qur’an: “And (remember) the Day when the wrong-doer will bite his hands and say: Woe to me! Would that I had taken a path with the Messenger. Woe to me! If only I had not taken so-so-and-so as a friend! He has led me astray from this Reminder (the Qur’an) after it had come to me. And Satan is ever a deserter to man in the hour of need.” Qur’an 25:27-29. So take heed before the inevitable Day comes when we are called to account for our actions. ALLAH, the All-Wise also says: “Friends on that Day will be enemies to one another, except al-Muttaqoon (i.e. those who have Taqwa).” Qur’an 43:67. The benefit of mixing with the righteous is immense, and it will, in shaa ALLAH, be even more obvious to us in the Hereafter. One of the early Muslims said that it is from ALLAH'S ’s blessings upon a youth when he tur

BismilLah.  When the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam declared that ALLAH had chosen him to become HIS Messenger for mankind,  the Jews said, `We worship Uzayr, the son of ALLAH,' and the Christians said, `We worship the Messiah (Isa), the son of ALLAH,' and the Zoroastrians said, `We worship the sun and the moon,' and the idolators said, `We worship idols,' WHO DO YOU WORSHIP? ALLAH revealed to HIS Messenger instantly through Angel Gabriel in Qur'an 122:1-4,  قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ Say to mankind: "HE is ALLAH, ONE and ONLY." meaning, HE is the ONE, the SINGULAR, Who has no peer, no assistant, no rival, no equal and none comparable to HIM. ٱللَّهُ ٱلصَّمَدُ  "This means the ONE Who all of the creation depends upon for their needs and their requests." لَمۡ يَلِدۡ و

BismilLah.  As the saying goes, ''Unity is Strength'' but unfortunately we have reduced Islam to rituals and forgotten other important tenets. Muslim unity is a Fard (obligatory duty) according to the Quran and the Traditions of the Prophet Mohamed (peace and blessings be upon him). Consider the following From the Quran (49:10): ''The Believers are but a single Brotherhood: So make peace and reconciliation between your two (contending) brothers; and fear ALLAH, that ye may receive Mercy. Also from the Quran (3:103): ''And hold fast, all together, by the rope which ALLAH (stretches out for you), and be not divided among yourselves, and remember with gratitude God's favour on you; for ye were enemies and HE joined your hearts in love so that by HIS Grace, y

BismilLah.  ALLAH in the Quran praised those who respond to evil with good deeds. Those who repel evil with good will find that their enemies will become their friends. ALLAH says: Not equal are the good deed and the bad deed. Repel evil by that which is better, and then the one who is hostile to you will become as a devoted friend. But none is granted it except those who are patient and none is granted it except one having a great fortune. Quran 41:34-35. Sheikh Ibn Abbas may ALLAH be pleased with him commented on this verse, saying: ALLAH commands the believers to be patient when they feel angry, to be forbearing when confronted with ignorance, and to forgive when they are mistreated. If they do this, ALLAH will save them from Satan and subdue their enemies to them until they become like close friends. Qur'an 41:34. ALL

The Prophet set one condition on Abu-l Aas before he freed him, that he should send his daughter Zaynab to him without delay.
