 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.

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

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 p
