SO CALLED NATURAL DISASTERS SUCH AS CYCLONES, HERICANES, EARTHQUAKES IN RELATION TO ALLAH'S MERCY

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Ath-thalaatha, 8th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH. (Tuesday, 4th of October 2022).

*_SO CALLED NATURAL DISASTERS SUCH AS CYCLONES, HERICANES, EARTHQUAKES IN RELATION TO ALLAH'S MERCY_*. BismilLah. 


The Arabic word for mankind is Insaan. One of the meanings of Insaan is forgetfulness. Human beings are forgetful, and we need constant reminders as to who we are, why we are here on earth, and to whom we owe a debt of gratitude. All our acts of worship, our Salaah, Zakaat, our fasting and Hajj, are actually reminders of this unique relationship between the Creator and the created, between the Rabb and His abd, the Lord and His servant. We Muslims, if we aspire to become true believers, we have to be constantly aware of our utter reliance on ALLAH: our utter and absolute helplessness in the face of the titanic forces of nature around us. 


The Burma cyclone, American hericanes and the Chinese earthquakes etc are timely reminders, if we need reminding, that the image we have of earth, as a serene and peaceful planet, is actually wrong. This is not a peaceful planet, by any means. Those stunning and idyllic photographs and landscape paintings that we enjoy so much describe only one small facet, one small aspect of the face of mother earth. The wider picture of our planet is much more complex, much more fearsome. They are all under the command of ALLAH. They are some of the soldiers of ALLAH. Regardless of your technology and how powerful nation you claim to be, you cannot stop ALLAH striking to proof HE exist who MUST BE WORSHIPED. We are currently witnessing a pandemic due to a tiny virus which is affecting the so called super powers more and this is part of ALLAH'S reminder that only HE is the supreme super power NONE else. 


*_May ALLAH keep guiding us all, grant us understanding of the deen and protect us from any satanic influences_*. 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...

He doesn't want to scold detective Precious in the presence of the civilian so he waits till the conversation is over and then calls her to his office.
