Allah ﷻ says  

*طه*


_Ta-Ha_


*مَآ أَنَزَلْنَا عَلَيْكَ الْقُرْءَانَ لِتَشْقَى*


_We have not sent down the Qur'an unto you to cause you distress,_

[20:1-2]

Juwaybir reported that Ad-Dahhak said, "When Allah sent the Qur'an down to His Messenger, he and his Companions adhered to it. Thus, the idolators of the Quraysh said, `This Qur'an was only revealed to Muhammad to cause him distress.' Therefore, Allah revealed this Ayah.


Qatadah said "No, by Allah, He did not make it a thing of distress. Rather, He made it a mercy, a light and a guide to Paradise"


*إِلاَّ تَذْكِرَةً لِّمَن يَخْشَى*


_but only as a Reminder to those who fear_

[20:3]

Allah ﷻ revealed His Book and sent His Messenger as a mercy for His servants, so that the person who reflects may be reminded. Thus, a man will benefit from what he hears of the Book of Allah ﷻ, it is a remembrance in which Allah ﷻ revealed what He permits and prohibits.

_

The Kuffar will listen to the Qur'an but it won't go past their ears, consider that Allah ﷻ has allowed the Qur'an to touch your heart, and how great this blessing is.

_

*تَنزِيلاً مِّمَّنْ خَلَق الاٌّرْضَ وَالسَّمَـوَتِ الْعُلَى*


_A revelation from Him who created the earth and high heavens._

[20:4]


Meaning, This Qur'an, which has come to you, O Muhammad ﷺ, is a revelation from your Lord. He is the Lord of everything and its King. 

_

He created the lofty heavens with their high altitudes and subtleties.


It has been reported in a Hadith, which At-Tirmidhi graded as authentic, that the density of each sky of the heavens is the distance of five hundred years travel and the distance between it and the next heaven is also five hundred years.

_

*الرَّحْمَـنُ عَلَى الْعَرْشِ اسْتَوَى*


_The Most Gracious Rose over the Throne._

[20:5]

_

These Ayaat brothers and sisters, these Ayaat guided the staunchest enemy to Islam at the time after Abu Jahl, 

Umar ibn Al Khattab رضي الله عن!

_

Look how the man who beat up his sister and her husband for being Muslims, became the 2nd Khalifa of the Muslims and one among the two buried beside Muhammad ﷺ.

_

The Qur'an is a Noor and a Hidayah! Let it speak to you, as it spoke to Umar رضي الله عنه!

_

May Allah ﷻ make this Qur'an a guiding light for us in this world and a intercessor for the hereafter.

آمِيْن

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...
