THE EFFECTS OF SALAAT IN OUR LIFE

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawmul Jumuat. 26th day of RAJAB, 1444AH (Friday 17th February. 2023). *_THE EFFECTS OF SALAAT IN OUR LIFE_*. BismilLaah. 


Today we have indeed come to treat the Prayer (Salah) as something insignificant in our lives. Very often we hear some says, "I will start praying when the time comes." Others, especially the younger Muslims, do not find much comfort, and joy in their Prayers. Due to our treatment of Prayer as a burden, due to lack of Islamic knowledge, weak eemaan etc, our love and passion for the Prayer have vanished. Our hearts have become hardened, and we have become depressed and defeated people. As a result, many are searching for 'cures and remedies to the distress in our lives, through any means available, but are unable to find any because they have ignored the greatest medicine *Salaah and zikir*! 


The whole purpose of Salaah is to be ever conscious of ALLAH, the Creator and Sustainer of all things. Salaah is indeed, one of the most comprehensive forms of Dhikr (Remembrance). No wonder, ALLAH states in a hadith qudsi: "Out of all the ways through which My servant gets closer to ME, Salaah is the dearest to ME." (Bukhari). Allahu Akbar. 


Remember, first and foremost, that as soon as you commence your Salaah, Shaytan makes it his duty to fill your mind with anything and everything but not thoughts of ALLAH. He tries ceaselessly to disengage your mind and heart from such remembrance. It is this state of absentmindedness that destroys the quality of our Prayer. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) once said: "ALLAH does not accept the Prayers of an individual until his heart achieves in it what his body has achieved." [Al-Ghazali in Ihya-Uloom ad-Deen].   


Let's declare jihaad against our laziness and with immediate effect make salaah our most priority in life not our job not our relationships and nothing else but salaah first. Just say in Shaa ALLAH and set your marks.


 *_May ALLAH protect us from the traps of sheitan ( The Cursed )_*. 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 Ł„َŁ‚َŲÆۡ ŁƒَŁَŲ±َ Ł±Ł„َّŲ°ِŁŠŁ†َ Ł‚َŲ§Ł„ُŁˆٓŲ§ْ Ų„ِŁ†َّ Ł±Ł„Ł„َّŁ‡َ Ł‡ُŁˆَ Ł±Ł„ۡŁ…َŲ³ِŁŠŲ­ُ Ł±ŲØۡŁ†ُ Ł…َŲ±ۡŁŠَŁ…َۖ ŁˆَŁ‚َŲ§Ł„َ Ł±Ł„ۡŁ…َŲ³ِŁŠŲ­ُ ŁŠَٰŲØَŁ†ِŁŠٓ Ų„ِŲ³ۡŲ±َٰٓŲ”ِŁŠŁ„َ Ł±Ų¹ۡŲØُŲÆُŁˆŲ§ْ Ł±Ł„Ł„َّŁ‡َ Ų±َŲØِّŁŠ ŁˆَŲ±َŲØَّŁƒُŁ…ۡۖ Ų„ِŁ†َّŁ‡ُŪ„ Ł…َŁ† ŁŠُŲ“ۡŲ±ِŁƒۡ ŲØِŁ±Ł„Ł„َّŁ‡ِ ŁَŁ‚َŲÆۡ Ų­َŲ±َّŁ…َ Ł±Ł„Ł„َّŁ‡ُ Ų¹َŁ„َŁŠۡŁ‡ِ Ł±Ł„ۡŲ¬َŁ†َّŲ©َ ŁˆَŁ…َŲ£ۡŁˆَŁ‰ٰŁ‡ُ Ł±Ł„Ł†َّŲ§Ų±ُۖ ŁˆَŁ…َŲ§ Ł„ِŁ„ŲøَّٰŁ„ِŁ…ِŁŠŁ†َ Ł…ِŁ†ۡ Ų£َŁ†Ųµَ...

 Friday and it's dignity.

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 (ļ·ŗ) 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...
