COURTSHIP IN ISLAM

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt, 28th day of Swafar 1444AH. (Saturday, 24th of September 2022).

*_COURTSHIP IN ISLAM_*. BismilLaah. 


To non Muslims, courtship is a period during which a couple develop a romantic relationship before getting married with excuse of getting to know each other well regardless of any disobedience to ALLAH within such relationship. This kind of relationship is strictly forbidden in Islam. Islam has a permissible form of courtship before the actual wedding day. First of all, it's not permissible and not recommended or healthy for any Muslim who is not ready for marriage to initiate any form of relationship with a brother or sister. It's important to build good relationship with ALLAH first through studies of Islam and also building a good and halaal career or source of income before even thinking of marriage. Don't waste your time with anyone within these period and be focused especially our brothers and sisters in education or in any apprenticeship. 


When you are ready for marriage then you can begin searching for a partner through friends, relatives, colleagues, local imams, learned Islamic teachers  etc for any recommendations. You must take your time through Prayers whilst searching considering the  minimum 4 formula recommended by our beloved Messenger of ALLAH sallallahu alaihi wasallam which are 1. The Person's eemaan or practicing nature and must be a Muslim. We can't marry ANY non Muslim. 2. The person must be attractive to you. Don't just accept bcs of your parents or who did the recommendation even though that factor is highly recommended if you can consider the person. 3. The person must be earning halaal income or ensure  his or her source of income is halaal. 4. The person is been raised from a good muslim family or good practicing revert etc. These are guidelines to consider in our efforts to find a suitable partner for our marriage life. 

*_May ALLAH protect our marriages and grant our single brothers and sisters good partners_*. 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 ...

HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yaum Al-Khamis, 22nd day of Jumaadal Uula 1447AH, Thursday, 13th November, 2025.  *_HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN_*. BismilLah.  When we help our brothers and sisters in Islam, in reality, we are helping ourselves. The Messenger of ALLAH (S.A.W) said: He who relieves the hardship of a believer in this world, ALLAH Azzawajallah will relieve his hardship on the Day of Judgment. He who makes easy what is difficult, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will make it easy for him in the world and the hereafter. He who conceals the faults of a Muslim, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will conceal his faults in this ALLAH Azzawajallah world and the Hereafter, for ALLAH helps the servant as long as he helps his brother. Source: Ṣaḥīḥ "Muslim 2699. AlhamdulilLah.  With this I hope with immediate effect we will all strive to help each other in any possible way such as making dua for each other, supporting our relatives and those in need in ou...

THE MUSLIM WOMAN AND HER OWN SELF

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm athalaatha, 3rd day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Tuesday, 26th August 2025. *_THE MUSLIM WOMAN AND HER OWN SELF_*. BismilLah.  Islam encourages Muslims in general to stand out among people, readily distinguishable by their dress, appearance and behaviour, so that they will be a good example, worthy of the great message that they bring to humanity. According to the hadith narrated by the great Sahabi Ibn al-Hanzaliyyah, the Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam ) told his Companions, when they were travelling to meet some brothers in faith: "You are going to visit your brothers, so repair your saddles and make sure that you are dressed well, so that you will stand out among people like an adornment, for ALLAH (SWT) does not love ugliness." Reported by Imam Abu Dawud, 4/83, in Kitab al-libas, bab ma ja'a fi isbal al-izar. The Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) considered an unkempt and careless appearance, and scruffy clothes and furnishings, to be...
