GIVING SINCERE SADAQAH AND ITS EFFECTS ON OUR LIFE

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS.  Yaum Al-Khamis, 20th day of Ramadhan. (Thursday, 21st of April, 2022). *_GIVING SINCERE SADAQAH AND ITS EFFECTS ON OUR LIFE_*. BismilLaah.


Sadaqah is a means of gaining baraqah(blessings) on our wealth or income. It may be hard for us to give sadaqah when we are barely able to make ends meet. However, if we truly trust in ALLAH, we will give from the little we have to our relatives in particular with intention of gaining baraqah on our income as ALLAH promised in Quran 2:261 as ALLAH says; 

مَّثَلُ الَّذِينَ يُنفِقُونَ أَمْوَالَهُمْ فِي سَبِيلِ اللّهِ كَمَثَلِ حَبَّةٍ أَنبَتَتْ سَبْعَ سَنَابِلَ فِي كُلِّ سُنبُلَةٍ مِّيَةُ حَبَّةٍ

The parable of those who spend their wealth in the way of ALLAH, is that of a grain (of corn); it grows seven ears, and each ear has a hundred grains.


This is a parable that ALLAH made of the multiplication of rewards for those who spend in HIS cause, seeking HIS pleasure. ALLAH multiplies the good deed ten to seven hundred times especially in this blessed month of the year. 


If we truly believe and apply this verse, we will come to learn that we can never lose from giving sadaqah, but instead we gain immensely from it. However, gaining from sadaqah may not always be in a physical form. When we give sadaqah, it doesn’t necessarily mean that our salaries will increase or we will miraculously stumble upon a goldmine. It may mean that ALLAH will put baraqah(blessings) into our wealth and possessions instead. 


By regularly giving sadaqah, we will quickly notice that although we are still spending the same amount of money on the same expenses, we will still have plenty left in shaa ALLAH. Example is you going to a shop to buy a TV which cost $1000 and you are ready with your $1000 only to realise you left your wallet at home. You then decided to come back to the same shop the next day only the realise that the same TV is now half price 50% discount Allahu Akbar. Who made you to forget your wallet yesterday? ALLAH indeed as part of the blessings on your $1000. This happiness to us on our daily lives that we fail to notice. Let's support our relatives and the needy in this blessed month for our own good.

*_MAY ALLAH KEEP GUIDING US ALL AND BLESS US WITH THE LITTLE CHARITY WE GIVE_*. 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...

All the bandits were amazed of what their leader did. Three days later,the man whose sister was there and everyone in the sister knew her brother was wicked man. So every man was sacred. So a stranger walking by saw his sister and he felt in love with her. She went to her and said I wa...
