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 ...

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...

IMPORTANCE OF SEEKING KNOWLEDGE An obligation upon every Muslim

 ﷽ ➖➖➖ *IMPORTANCE OF SEEKING KNOWLEDGE* ➖➖➖ *An obligation upon every Muslim* ➖➖➖  Allah ﷻ says  *وَعَلَّمَ ءَادَمَ الأَسْمَآءَ كُلَّهَا* _And He taught Adam all the names of everything_ Meaning, the names that people use, such as human, animal, sky, earth, land, sea, horse, donkey, and so forth, including the names of the other species" *ثُمَّ عَرَضَهُمْ عَلَى الْمَلَـئِكَةِ* _Then He showed them to the angels_ Meaning, the creations. Qatadah رحمه الله said, _"Allah paraded the objects before the angels"_ *فَقَالَ أَنۢبِـُٔونِى بِأَسْمَآءِ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ إِن كُنتُمْ صَٰدِقِينَ* _And said, "Tell Me the names of these if you are truthful."_ [2:31] This was said to the Angels who in the previous verse said : *أَتَجْعَلُ فِيهَا مَن يُفْسِدُ فِيهَا وَيَسْفِكُ الدِّمَآءَ* _Will You place therein those who will make mischief therein and shed blood._ [2:30] _ So they the Angels said  *قَالُواْ سُبْحَـنَكَ لاَ عِلْمَ لَنَآ إِلاَّ مَا عَلَّمْتَنَآ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ الْعَلِي...
