DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Khamis, 1st day of Dhul-Hijjah. (Thursday, 30th of June, 2022). Some Virtues of Dhul Hijjah

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS.  Yaum Al-Khamis, 1st day of Dhul-Hijjah. (Thursday, 30th of June, 2022).

*_Some Virtues of Dhul Hijjah_*. BismilLah.


AlhamdulilLah for granting us the opportunity to be part of Dhul Hijjah. It's my hope that majority of us are fasting. Lets strive to fast as many as possible in these 9 days of Dhul Hijjah. 


ALLAH (SWT) takes an Oath by the Ten Nights of Dhul-Hijjah:

وَٱلۡفَجۡرِ - وَلَيَالٍ عَشۡرٍ۬ 

I swear by the dawn, [89:1] and by the Ten Nights.

2. RasuululLah (Sallahu Alaihe Wassallam) declares the good deeds of 10 days of Dhul Hijjah to be most Superior:

Narrated Ibn Abbas (R.A): The Prophet  said, "No good deeds done on other days are superior to those done on these (first ten days of Dhul Hijjah)." (Tirmidhi).


Today is the 1st day of Dhul Hijjah so let's fast any number of days we can especially on Arafah day. If you can fast all the 9 days Maa shaa ALLAH, that will be great if not just strive to fast as much as we can. Fasting on Arafah day which is the 9th day of Dhul Hijjah expiates for sins committed the year before and the year after:

Abu Qatadah (R.A) is reported to have said that the Prophet SAAW said: "Fasting on the day of 'Arafah is an expiation (of sins) for two years, the year preceding it and the year following it.' (Ibn Majah).


*_May ALLAH give us all the opportunity to earn these great rewards_*. Aameen

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
