WHY DATING THE NON ISLAMIC WAY IS HARAAM (Forbidden/Unlawful) In Islam

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat. 8th day of Shaw'waal, 1444AH (Friday, 28th April 2023).

*_WHY DATING THE NON ISLAMIC WAY IS HARAAM (Forbidden/Unlawful) In Islam_*. BismilLah. 


Most people justify dating with the notion that they just want to know each other better before they can marry. Islam believes that anything that can cause people to sin should be avoided before a person falls into temptation and it is so with dating. 


The following are some of the reasons why dating is haram in Islam:


First, those dating start their date at a time when they're not really ready and well prepared to enter into marriage (e.g. students dating secretly or openly while in school). They are exposed to many temptations that normally end in disappointment and separation, which is against the ethics of Islam.


Those dating usually meet alone in a secret place and it is where most romantic affairs starts as the Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) have warn us on that in a hadith saying (whenever a man and a woman are alone in a place shaytan is the third). He would persuade them to gaze at ease other lustfully, which often fall them into temptation. And ALLAH commanded us to lower our gaze, where He said in Surah Nuur 24:30.


Those dating normally speaks or express their love in a lustful and soft way that cause the couples to fall into temptation. ALLAH even ordered the Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) to tell his wives and the believing women to speak in an honourable way as in Surah Ahzab 33:32. It contradicts dating and all that it holds.


Those dating usually shake/hold hands with each other which is the initial stage of intimacy and Islam prohibit it by the sayings of the Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) (It is better for one of you to be pierced by a steel pin in his head than to touch the hand of a woman who is not lawful to him). And Abu Hurayrah said [The temptation of the hands is fast striking]. The shaking hands is a strong weapon used by Satan to let us end in wrong.


Those dating normally spend the night together and execute the shameful act. Narrated by Abdallah Bun Jaabir, the Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said (Behold, no person should spend the night with a woman, but only in the case he married to her or he is a mahram (relative). Most spend the night and fornicate where as the Quran warn us not to even come near to zina in (QUR'AN 17:32). 

*_May ALLAH, protect us from any acts that will lead to any disobedience and keeps guiding us all_*. 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 ...

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...
