USING OUR INCOME OR WEALTH WISELY

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawmul Ahad. 28th day of RAJAB, 1444AH (Sunday 19th February. 2023). *_USING OUR INCOME OR WEALTH WISELY_*. BismilLaah.


Imaam Abu Huraira (may ALLAH be pleased with him) reported ALLAH'S Messenger (peace be upon him) as saying: A servant says, My wealth. my wealth, but out of his wealth three things are only his: whatever he eats and makes use of or by means of which he dresses himself and it wears out or he gives as a charity, and this is what he stored for himself (as a reward for the Hereafter), and what is beyond this (it is of no use to you) because you are to depart and leave it for other people. (Sahih Muslim, Book 55, Hadith 6).


Let's invest our little savings into the ways of ALLAH such as supporting orphans, support In building Mosques and Islamic Schools, Wells for Communities in need of drinking water, supporting our relatives and those in need etc. These things are our true savings which can benefit us when we die. We don't know when death would knock on us so why save so much in the bank which will not benefit us instead of saving it with ALLAH? I don't want to hear any BUT, let's trust ALLAH and save our money with HIM through the few mentioned charity works. ALLAH mentioned in the Qur'an about these things I mentioned above and more of such are actually a beautiful loan to ALLAH and HE  will pay us back when we die. What a beautiful loan indeed. 


*_May ALLAH (Ar-Razzaaq, The Provider/ Sustainer) aid us to be able to use our income for charity works purely to please HIM_*. 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 ...

Friday and it's dignity.

 Friday and it's dignity. Alhamdulillah, Allah says, Al-Jumu'ah 62:9 ŁŠَŲ§ٓŲ£َŁŠُّŁ‡َŲ§ Ł±Ł„َّŲ°ِŁŠŁ†َ Ų”َŲ§Ł…َŁ†ُŁˆٓŲ§ْ Ų„ِŲ°َŲ§ Ł†ُŁˆŲÆِŁŠَ Ł„ِŁ„ŲµَّŁ„َŁˆٰŲ©ِ Ł…ِŁ† ŁŠَŁˆۡŁ…ِ Ł±Ł„ۡŲ¬ُŁ…ُŲ¹َŲ©ِ ŁَŁ±Ų³ۡŲ¹َŁˆۡŲ§ْ Ų„ِŁ„َŁ‰ٰ Ų°ِŁƒۡŲ±ِ Ł±Ł„Ł„َّŁ‡ِ ŁˆَŲ°َŲ±ُŁˆŲ§ْ Ł±Ł„ۡŲØَŁŠۡŲ¹َۚ Ų°َٰŁ„ِŁƒُŁ…ۡ Ų®َŁŠۡŲ±ࣱ Ł„َّŁƒُŁ…ۡ Ų„ِŁ† ŁƒُŁ†ŲŖُŁ…ۡ ŲŖَŲ¹ۡŁ„َŁ…ُŁˆŁ†َ O you who have believed, when [the adhān] is called for the prayer on the day of JumuŹæah [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 (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...
