ISLAM IS OUR BIRTH-RIGHT

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Ath-thalaatha. 16th day of Dhul-Hijjah, 1444AH (Tuesday, 4th July, 2023). *_ISLAM IS OUR BIRTH-RIGHT_*. *Bismillah*


Innaa Lillahi Wa innaa ilaihi Raajiuun. Please make dua for my mother-in-law   in Tamale-Ghana. Mma Maryam. We lost her this morning. She was lovely, gentlemother-in law, full of eemaan. May ALLAH have mercy on her and forgive her shortcomings. May ALLAH grant her Jannatul Firdaus and grant us patience  in accepting the decisions of ALLAH. Aameen. Back to our topic.


Islam states clearly that everyone is born a Muslim and is therefore monotheistic by nature. We read in the Qur'an that humanity has been created with the natural disposition towards the unity of ALLAH. In the words of the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam: "Every person is born with the innate religious faith (to submit to God Almighty)." Thus when an individual accepts Islam, he is not turning his back on any prior revelation but rather is returning to the original and true revelation of ALLAH and to his own nature as a creation of ALLAH. This being the case, Islam is your birthright not by luck that you were born a Muslim. Other religious or ideological systems are either corruptions our outright denials of Islam.


Islam is not a new religion founded by Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam, but a final Testament of the original revelation that has been conveyed to humanity by messengers and prophets sent by ALLAH for that very purpose: ALLAH ended HIS creation and made Islam as a way of life that HE ordered mankind to follow as ALLAH says;  "This day I have perfected your religion for you, completed My favor upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion" (5:3). As the Qur'an is the final revelation and Muhammad is the final prophet, humanity is obligated to accept it: "If anyone desires a religion other than Islam, never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost all spiritual good" (Quran 3:86). Be a proud Muslim and live your life worthy of others seeing Islam in you not by your claim. *_May ALLAH, AL-‘ALEE (The One Who is above and exceeds all others) keep guiding us all and protect us from any deviation_*. 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 يَآأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ إِذَا نُودِيَ لِلصَّلَوٰةِ مِن يَوۡمِ ٱلۡجُمُعَةِ فَٱسۡعَوۡاْ إِلَىٰ ذِكۡرِ ٱللَّهِ وَذَرُواْ ٱلۡبَيۡعَۚ ذَٰلِكُمۡ خَيۡرࣱ لَّكُمۡ إِن كُنتُمۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ O you who have believed, when [the adhān] is called for the prayer on the day of Jumuʿah [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 (ﷺ) 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...
