*LEAVING OFF SINS*

*Allah ﷻ is watching you*

Allaah ﷻ says in the Qur'an


 *أَلَمۡ يَعۡلَم بِأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَرَىٰ* 


 _Does he not know that Allah sees?_ 

[96:14]

_

Abu Huraira رضي الله عنه reported: The Prophet ﷺ said:

_“Allah Almighty said: O son of Adam, busy yourself with my worship and I will fill your heart with riches and alleviate your poverty. If you do not do so, I will fill your hands with problems and never alleviate your poverty.”_

[Sunan al-Tirmidhī 2466, Grade: Sahih according to Al-Albani]

_

Imam Abdullah ibn Al Mubarak رحمه الله wrote the following poetry...


 *رأيت الذنوب تميت القلوب* 


_I see that sins cause the heart to die_


 *ويتبعها الذل إدمانها* 


 _And disgrace follows continuity of sin_ 


 *وترك الذنوب حياة القلوب* 


 _And leaving sins is the revival of the heart_ 


 *وخير لنفسك عصيانها* 


 _And its better for you to rebel against the sinning_ 

_

Abu Nu’aym reported: Al-Rabia’ ibn Khuthaym  رحمه الله said to his companions, “Do you know the disease, the cure, and the healing?” They said no. Al-Rabia’ said, “The disease is sin, the cure is to seek forgiveness from Allah, and the healing is to repent and then not repeat it.”

[Ḥilyat al-Awliyā’ 1722]


What profound words from the Salaf! 

Brothers and sisters.. 

Stay away from sins. 

Major or Minor, doesn't matter. 


Flee away from the temptations of the Shaithan and flee towards the Mercy of Allah ﷻ.

Or else sins would overtake you and corrupt your heart.

_


Abu Huraira رضي الله عنه reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:

_“Verily, when the servant commits a sin, a black mark appears upon his heart. If he abandons the sin, seeks forgiveness, and repents, then his heart will be polished. If he returns to the sin, the blackness will be increased until it overcomes his heart. It is the covering that Allah has mentioned: No, rather a covering is over their hearts from what they have earned.”_ (83:14)

[Sunan al-Tirmidhī 3334, Grade: Sahih according to Al-Suyuti]

May Allah ﷻ protect us from sins, grant us forgiveness for our shortcomings, purify our hearts and save us from the Hellfire. 

*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...

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...
