THE BEST FORM OF INVESTMENT IN ISLAM

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Ahad. 21st day of Dhul-Hijjah, 1444AH (Sunday, 9th July, 2023).

*_THE BEST FORM OF INVESTMENT IN ISLAM_*. BismilLah. 


Many of us seem to spend an incredible amount of time and energy chasing the dream job. Afterall, a bigger paycheck often translates into a better car, a bigger house and a higher worldly social status. Each of us is dreaming such big which also includes good beautiful wife, wealthy husband etc.


But we are warned about this in The Qur’an where ALLAH says  *Alhaakumuttakaathur hatta zurtumulmaqaabir*

“Rivalry in worldly increase distracts you (from the remembrance of ALLAH), till you come to the graves” (102: 1-2).

“Your wealth and your children are but a trial, and ALLAH has with HIM a great reward.” (64:15). 


Ever think of the results of all of your worldy efforts?

”It will be, on the Day they see it, as though they had not remained [in the world] except for an afternoon or a morning thereof.” (79:46). READ AGAIN PLEASE. 


Have you ever stopped for a minute and considered building a house for yourself in Jannah instead of in dunya? 

”ALLAH will build a house in Jannah for whoever is diligent in observing 12 Sunnah rakaats daily (as follows: 2 before Fajr, 4 rakat before and 2 after Dhur, 2 after the Maghrib, and 2 after Ishaa).” (Tirmidhi). Do we do these? 


Yet worries and anxieties are dominating our lives so much so that many of us have even missed a few obligatory prayers for some worldly reason and also offer our salaat late because we are busy chasing money we will die and leave behind. Have we forgotten our appointment with the Angel of Death? Our meeting with ALLAH? Is not funny that all your efforts on earth will one day be left for inheritance and you will be accountable for all things you acquired which others enjoy after your death but you are accountable to all and maybe PUNISHED whilst others including those you hated are enjoying it as inheritance. Let's think twice and focus on investment that will benefit us when we die which can be today or even within the next few minutes SubhaanAllah. *_May ALLAH keep guiding us all and protect us from any illnesses_*. 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...

The story of taqwa

 The story of taqwa. Taqwa means fear of Allah. There once lived a young woman who was very beautiful lady and had all the qualities a man needed. She was well covered and oneday ,she was attacked with her families. This woman was taken away and brought to a man who was the bandits leader. As she was brought, the man wanted to sleep with her as she was so sad and in pain. As she undressed and coming to her, she said fear Allah and know death can come to you now. If you have a mother or sister like me, don't disgrace and destroy my honor for I won't forgive you  The leader immediately remembered he had a sister he loved a lot and so he quickly stopped and dressed and said to the lady, you can go. All the bandits were amazed of what their leader did. Three days later,the man whose sister was there and everyone in the sister knew her brother was wicked man. So every man was sacred. So a stranger walking by saw his sister and he felt in love with her. She went to her and said I wa...
