ARE WE READY FOR THE BLESSED MONTH OF RAMADAN?

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Al-Khamis. 17th day of Sha’abaan, 1444AH (Thursday 9th March, 2023).

*_ARE WE READY FOR THE BLESSED MONTH OF RAMADAN?_*. Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem. 


ALLAH says in the Qur'an;

"The month of Ramadan in which was revealed the Qur'an, a guidance for mankind and clear proofs for the guidance and the criterion (between right and wrong). So whoever of you sights (the crescent on the first night of) the month (of Ramadan i.e. is present at his home), he must observe Sawm (fasts) that month, and whoever is ill or on a journey (facing difficulties), the same number [of days which one did not observe Sawm (fasts) must be made up] from other days. ALLAH intends for you ease, and HE does not want to make things difficult for you. (HE wants that you) must complete the same number (of days), and that you must magnify ALLAH [i.e. to say Takbeer (Allaahu Akbar: ALLAH is the Most Great)] for having guided you so that you may be grateful to HIM”[al-Baqarah 2:185].


We've learned from this verse that fasting is Fard upon us all. It's a blessing from ALLAH, not a burden as many see it. We've also learned that whoever is ill or on a journey and cannot fast due to difficulties that you faces on your journey or in your illness, then you can break your fast then fast after Ramadan to cover the days missed. Same for our sisters going through their monthly cycle or after childbirth. 


Please Note that you cannot feed the poor to cover for your missed Ramadan days. Only old age people who cannot fast due to weakness and those with permanent illness such as stomach cancer etc can feed the poor full-day meal equivalent if doctors say no chance of recovery to be able to fast your missed days. If you feed for whatever reason you could not fast, you must still fast the missed days as soon as you can fast again. Fasting in Ramadan is so superior that even those sisters who could not fast due to their monthly/childbirth cycle have to still fast their missed days, not like daily salaat which ALLAH has spared them not to pay back the missed salaat. ALLAHU AKBAR. To be continued in shaa ALLAH. *_May ALLAH count us among those who are successful in this coming blessed month_*. 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 ...

The questions of the grave?

 The questions of the grave? Alhamdulillah, every Muslim should have belief that there is questions in the grave. As reported in hadith of the trials of the grave like that of the dajjal Two angels that will appear to. Person, Munkar and Nakir As reported in hadith, It was narrated form Al Bara bin Azib that the Prophet said: Allah will keep firm those who believe, with the world that stands firm in this world, and in the Hereafter. This was revelated concerning the torment in the grave. It will be said to him (the deceased: 'Who is your Lord?' and he will say: 'My Lord isAllah and my Prophet is Muhammad. That is what is (the meaning of) His saying: Allah will keep firm those who believe, with the word that stands firm in this world, and in the Hereafter". Sunan an-Nasa'i 2057. Abd Allah (b. Mas’ud) told that when the evening came, the prophet (May peace be upon him) would say: we have come to the evening, and in the evening the dominion belongs to Allah: “Praise b...

As Time passes

 ╔✽̤̥̈̊‎​​ As Time passes ✽̤̈̊╗ Abdullah bin Mas’ud & said: “Indeed I hate to see a man idle, neither working for this world nor for the Hereafter.”  Hasan Basri sé said: “O son of Adam, indeed you are only but a number of days. Whenever a day passes, a part of  you leaves with it.” Hassan said: “I have met (pious) people who are more miserly with their time than they are with their wealth.”  Hassan also said in a sermon, “Do not let the temporary and little charms of this world distract you and entice you...and do not say tomorrow and tomorrow, for indeed you do not know when you will be heading to Allah.” ..  •══༻  For more updates ✅ #MotivationalMoments ✅ #PearlofMarriage  ✅ #PearlsofIslam  ✅ #ASML
