THREE CATEGORIES OF PEOPLE ARE MENTIONED IN QUR'AN, WHICH CATEGORY ARE YOU?

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Ahad. 19th day of Rabeeu ath-thaani 1444AH (Sunday 13th November. 2022).

*_THREE CATEGORIES OF PEOPLE ARE MENTIONED IN QUR'AN, WHICH CATEGORY ARE YOU?_* BismilLah. 


ALLAH mentions 3 kinds of people in ‘The QUR'AN’, The Muttaqeen, The Kaafir and The Munaafiq. Which category do you fall into? Let's find out. 


CATEGORY 1 : AL-MUTTAQEEN. THOSE WHO ADOPT TAQWA/ALLAH CONSCIOUSNESS​ (Al Baqarah 2-5).

This is the category we all would want to fall under. These are those who are the most dearest to ALLAH, the most HIGH. 


Characteristics of Al Muttaqeen (Those with Taqwa):

They have eemaan on ‘Gaib’, The Unseen – i.e. Believe in ALLAH, the Angels, The Messenger, The Revelation, Quran, The Day of Judgement and Destiny. They establish five regular daily prayers: They spend in Charity from whatever ALLAH has given them – i.e. ‘Rizq’. Rizq is tangible and well as intangible, for eg, Children, food, ilm (knowledge), time etc. Everything is Rizq given by Allah!  They believe in the Revelation which was sent to Muhammad (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) – i.e the ‘Quran’ – and the revelations which were sent before him (Torah, Gospel etc. To previous nations).


They have YAQEEN on Aakhirah. Yaqeen is Firm Believe, it is a degree higher than eemaan. Yaqeen is as if you have seen it with your own eyes! You can defend it as if you were part of it or established it yourself. 


ALLAH says that Al Muttaqeen are those people who will receive guidance from their Rabb (Lord) and these are the only category of people who will attain Success and Salvation! In shaa ALLAH, all good practising Muslims​ will be in this category under HIS MERCY.  To be continued in shaa ALLAH. *_May ALLAH make us among those who are successful_*. 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 ...

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...

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...
