THE IMMENSE BLESSINGS. Are We Not Thankful?

 *THE IMMENSE BLESSINGS* 

➖➖➖

*Are We Not Thankful?*

➖➖➖

Allah ﷻ says in the Qur'an:


 *اَلَم نَجعَل لَّهُ عَينَين* 


 _Have we not made for him two eyes?_ 

 *وَ لِسَانًا وَّ شَفَتَين* 


 _And a tongue and two lips?_ 

[90:8-9]

_

Ponder over the blessings of Allah ﷻ, just these three will make you realise how much you have been blessed!

_

If I were to ask you, give me both of your eyes and I'll give you a Million for each, would any of you volunteer readily without hesitating?

_

No! Why?! Because you and I both know, that our eyes are integral to our daily lives! 

_

What about your tongue!?

If I offered to cut off your tongue in exchange for some diamond, would you take it? 

No! 

Because you and I both know, that this tongue we have been blessed with, 

Without it, we can never converse and be heard.

_

What about our lips?

Did you even realise, that your lips help you keep your food in your mouth, help you close your mouth and help you to form sound.

_

Look at these gifts, that Allah ﷻ blessed us with! 

But how ungrateful and arrogant we stand,

That we look at Haram, we speak, eat, and kiss that which is Haram! 

_

If you want to truly realise the blessings of Allah ﷻ, imagine yourself without the things you have right now! 

_

And Allah ﷻ says 


 *وَإِن تَعُدُّوا۟ نِعْمَتَ ٱللَّهِ لَا تُحْصُوهَآ* ۗ 


 _And if you were to count the blessings of Allah, never will you be able to count them._ 

[14:34]

_

If you want to truly show gratefulness to Allah ﷻ then use your eyes to read Qur'an and other beneficial books! 

Your tongue and lips to remember Allah ﷻ and spread Islam! 

_

Allah ﷻ says 


 *فَٱذْكُرُونِىٓ أَذْكُرْكُمْ وَٱشْكُرُوا۟ لِى وَلَا تَكْفُرُونِ* 


 _Remember me and I'll remember you, and be grateful to me and don't be ungrateful!_ 

[2:152]

_

Will you not take heed, and stop showing ungratefulness and arrogance via your actions towards the same creator who blessed you with limbs? 

Will you not turn back, moisten your eyes and tongue with remembrance and tire your arms and legs in obedience? 

_

Remember that you will be questioned in regards to how you used your blessings in this Dunya! 

They will either testify for you or against you!

_

May Allah ﷻ protect us and forgive our shortcomings.

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...
