LET'S MAKE A V-TURN TOWARDS PARADISE

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Khamis. 14th day of Shaw'waal, 1444AH (Thursday, 4th May, 2023).

 *_LET'S MAKE A V-TURN TOWARDS PARADISE_*. Bismillaahir Rahmanir Raheem. 


We always say U-Turn, but I say V-Turn for a purpose because for me, U is smooth, but V is sharp, and Emmergency turn, and that's our situation today. We seem to be relaxing and chasing dunyaa (this world) blindly, committing open sins, forgetting the reality of Death. 


Our beloved Messenger of ALLAH (sal 'Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “Truly, whoever takes the Hereafter as his or her (primary) concern, ALLAH places his richness before his eyes (his heart feels content), gathers his inner self (so he is at peace with himself), and this worldly life comes to him with compliance. And whoever has this worldly life as his (main) concern, ALLAH makes his poverty appear imminent to him, disunites his inner self (so he feels disgruntled and unhappy) and he does not gain anything from this worldly life except what had been destined for him.” [BY Imam Tirmidhi]. Are you saving good deeds for your salvation or wasting your life on earth, knowing you may be dead by the end of today or tomorrow? Are you wiser than those who are buried in the graves? How many times do you think of death a day? Do you think about the time for next salaat as you think about other things in life? Let's refocus on what's our  priorities in life. We hear all these almost all the time, and we support other families in burying their loved ones, but does it ever occur to us that you may be next to go as such refocus our ways of life?


A boat needs water to go places: ALLAH (subhana wa ta’ala) made the things of this world for you to use. But when water enters the same boat, it sinks: We need earth for living, but Don’t let the love of worldly things enter your heart, or it will sink you to death. We need this world to strive for paradise, but the same world can easily deviate us into hell fire, may ALLAH protect us from it. Aameen. 


How can one decrease one’s concern for this world? let's visit the grave yard regularly, let's visit the sick ones in hospital regularly, let's listen to the Creator's messages in Qur'an and Sunnah about paradise and hell etc. and it will reduce our love for sins. *_May ALLAH keeps protecting us from the plots of Shaitaan_*. 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...
