THE RULINGS ON PLURAL MARRIAGE(POLYGAMY) AND THE WISDOM BEHIND IT

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum al-ithnayn. 15th day of RAJAB, 1444AH (Monday 6th February. 2023).

*_THE RULINGS ON PLURAL MARRIAGE(POLYGAMY) AND THE WISDOM BEHIND IT_*. BismilLah. 


Because Quran and Islam are the final messages to mankind from the Creator ALLAH, it contains rules till judgement day. One of the rules is the permissibility of plural marriage.  Let me make it clear to all brothers and sisters in particular that ALLAH does not permit anything if it is not good for us. We all know ALLAH has permitted polygamy with conditions so it's up to us to study the conditions and if we can adhere to its conditions then it's better for us to go for it. ALLAH says in the Qur'an; *_Marry women of your choice, two or three, or four; but if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly (with them), then marry only one,  that is nearer to prevent you from doing injustice”_*. [al-Nisa’ 4:3]. If you study this verse well, you will notice that the command is to marry two, three or four but if you can't afford in handling them justice which includes, caring for them, accommodating them, clothing them etc then marry one meaning polygamy is something ALLAH loves us to go for if we can afford it. 


To speak against it or dislike it is a Major sin bcs you are disliking what ALLAH has permitted as such you are indirectly telling ALLAH HE permitted something wrong Astaghfirullah. Basically, polygamy is for those who are Muumin not just Muslims, meaning if your fear of ALLAH is lacking substance then you can't do justice to even one wife let alone two and in such a person, polygamy is forbidden for him. A sister in Marriage must NEVER oppose her husband adding a wife and a sister must never reject going into polygamy unless you have genuine reasons in regards to the eemaan of the brother and in such a situation you raise your concerns with the local imams or elders who were witness to the marriage without just opposing or fighting with your husband or the new sister as many does. 


*_May ALLAH increases us in wisdom to understand HIS rulings 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...

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...
