ZIKIR AFTER SALAAT, FIRST THING FIRST

 DAILY ISLAMIC  REMINDER. Yaum As-Sabt, 17th day of Dhul Hijjah (Saturday, 16th July 2022). *_ZIKIR AFTER SALAAT, FIRST THING FIRST_*. BismilLah. 


Its a sad reality that some imams and individuals will just start making dua after the final Tasleem and ignore what the Messenger of ALLAH sallallahu alaihi wasallam thought us to do after salaat.


Reported by Abu Hurayrah(RA) from the Messenger of ALLAH (peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him): “Whoever glorifies ALLAH (says Subhaan ALLAH) thirty-three times after each prayer, and praises ALLAH (says Al-hamdu Lillaah) thirty-three times, and magnifies ALLAH (says Allaahu akbar) thirty-three times, this makes ninety-nine, then to complete one hundred says Laa ilaaha ILL-ALLAAH wahdahu laa shareeka lahu, lahu’l-mulk wa lahu’l-hamd wa huwa ‘ala kulli shay’in qadeer (There is no god except ALLAH Alone, with no partner, HIS is the power and HIS is the praise, and HE is Able to do all things) – his sins will be forgiven even if they are like the foam of the sea.” (Reported by Muslim, 939). 


I'm not saying the dua after the fard salaat is not right but let's follow the sunnah because ignoring the sunnah means we loses lots of rewards and may even be sinful. You may notice from most masjids that after the imam finishes making dua people just stand up and leaves the masjid without the above zikir why because of the jamaat dua after the salaat which is supposed to be actually done individually not necessarily jamaat. The jamaat dua just after salaat by the imam destruct those praying and it makes people not to make the above sunnah zikir. The recommended sunnah way is for the imam to remain silent making his own zikir for the followers to make their zikir above and for late comers to finish their salaat then if the imam decides to make dua later for the community etc thats ok not forbidden but don't substitute permissible act to the recommended act. Hope you understand me. 


*_May ALLAH aid us through our little efforts to please HIM and follow the teachings of the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam strictly_*.  Aameen.

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 ...

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...

The story of taqwa

 The story of taqwa. Taqwa means fear of Allah. There once lived a young woman who was very beautiful lady and had all the qualities a man needed. She was well covered and oneday ,she was attacked with her families. This woman was taken away and brought to a man who was the bandits leader. As she was brought, the man wanted to sleep with her as she was so sad and in pain. As she undressed and coming to her, she said fear Allah and know death can come to you now. If you have a mother or sister like me, don't disgrace and destroy my honor for I won't forgive you  The leader immediately remembered he had a sister he loved a lot and so he quickly stopped and dressed and said to the lady, you can go. All the bandits were amazed of what their leader did. Three days later,the man whose sister was there and everyone in the sister knew her brother was wicked man. So every man was sacred. So a stranger walking by saw his sister and he felt in love with her. She went to her and said I wa...
