Brothers and sisters

You think sinning makes you a makes you worth something?


You think by taking out and doing filth with many women is a sign of your manhood?


You think by dressing up and wearing make-up and disregarding the Hijab is a *sign of your woman-hood?*


Wrong. It is only a sign of your lack of Taqwa and standing with Allah ﷻ.

It does not take away from the might of Allah ﷻ that you sinned. 

Nor does it add to it.

Wallahi, if the whole world did Shirk, this would not decrease Allah ﷻ in any way.


Some people, they sin and they sin, and then afterwards they feel too guilty to turn back and so they carry on.

Some people don't even admit what they do is wrong and they carry on! 


But it takes a real man and a real woman to stop sinning and prostrate before his/her Creator begging for mercy and admitting his/her weaknesses and begging for forgiveness.


Allah ﷻ says 


*قُلْ يَٰعِبَادِىَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَسْرَفُوا۟ عَلَىٰٓ أَنفُسِهِمْ لَا تَقْنَطُوا۟ مِن رَّحْمَةِ ٱللَّهِ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَغْفِرُ ٱلذُّنُوبَ جَمِيعًا ۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلْغَفُورُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ*


_Say: Oh you my slaves who have transgressed against themselves, do not despair in the Rahma of Allah! Surely, Allah forgives all sins and He is the Forgiving, the Beneficient._

[39:53]


People think that Allah ﷻ won't forgive them! But Allah ﷻ here in this Ayah is saying 2 commands.

1. Don't despair in mercy of Allah ﷻ 

2. Repent when you sin


Meaning, it is Waajib to repent after you sin! 


What makes you and I think we are people without need for Tawbah? 


When Prophet ﷺ made Istighfaar more than 70 times a day? 

And He ﷺ was sinless! 


Yet we who are sinful, can't even repent 10 times a day.


But Allah ﷻ said as part of a longer Hadith Qudsi.

_O My servants, you sin by night and by day, and I forgive all sins, so seek forgiveness of Me and I shall forgive you._

[Sahih Muslim 2577]


Ask Allah ﷻ! 

Just as you sinning wouldn't decrease His power.

Asking from Him the best in Dunya and Akhirah wouldn't decrease His power! 

No limits!


Prophet ﷺ said, _“Verily your Lord is Generous and Shy. If His servant raises his hands to Him (in supplication) He becomes shy to return them empty.”_

[Ahmad, Abu Dawud and Tirmidhi] 


May Allāh ﷻ forgive us and grant us Jannatul Firdaus

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
