POLYGAMY, IS A TEST and BLESSINGS FROM ALLAAH

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat. 9th day of Swafar, 1445AH (Friday, 25th. August, 2023).

*_POLYGAMY, IS A TEST and BLESSINGS FROM ALLAAH_*. BismilLah. 


As a Muslim, It's important to remember that, ALLAH does not permit anything for us if it does not contain blessings. All blessings also comes with a test or trial from ALLAH to test our eemaan. 


Narrated Abu Musa (radhi-allaahu 'anhu): The Prophet (sallahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said, "A faithful believer to a faithful believer is like the bricks of a wall, enforcing each other." While saying that the Prophet (sallahu alayhi wa sallam) clasped his hands, by interlacing his fingers.  (Bukhaari vol. 1, hadith # 468). This basically means we must share what we love most with our fellow Muslim brother or sister as our eemaan can never be good enough if we dont love for our sister or brother what we love for ourselves. 


Here is the reality, we were placed upon this earth to worship ALLAH 

alone. We are going to have trials and we must call on ALLAH to help us with them. You sisters that feel anger and jealousy, think more about the grave, think more about your meeting with ALLAH, ask youself, is harboring ill feelings worth wasting precious time that could be spent on good deeds to try and please ALLAH. Remember, you will die one day and leave your husband and children and wish you had a co-wife to help take care of your children and husband for you. This is a reality, we all must die, who is the first to say that they are ready and that they don't have anything to worry about? Do we really have time to spare on anything other than worshipping and trying to please ALLAH? And if polygyny is in the Qadr for you then accept it, deal with it. Read about how the Mothers of the Believers dealt with it. Read about how the Sahaabiyaat dealt with it. Turn to the Book of ALLAH and the Sunnah of our Prophet (sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam) to deal with it. Throw your hands up in sincere du'a and ask ALLAH to help you to deal with it, for sure ALLAH, subhaanahu wa ta'aala, is the best of Planners. HE knows what we do not know and HE knows what is best for us. Do not oppose what ALLAH has made halaal else you will be coming a grave sin challenging ALLAH.


*_May ALLAH  bless us with good in this world and in the next, and may HE save us from the hellfire and the torment of the grave_* 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 ...

One of the question asked is can a Christian enter Jannah today?

 One of the question asked is can a Christian enter Jannah today? Alhamdulillah, it is clear from Quran and hadiths that any christian who dies believing Jesus is God or son of God and do not believe in prophet Muhammad Peace be Upon Him will enter hellfire. Allah says, Al-Ma'idah 5:17 They have certainly disbelieved who say that Allāh is Christ, the son of Mary. Say, "Then who could prevent Allāh at all if He had intended to destroy Christ, the son of Mary, or his mother or everyone on the earth?" And to Allāh belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them. He creates what He wills, and Allāh is over all things competent. Allah says, Al-Ma'idah 5:72 لَقَدۡ كَفَرَ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلۡمَسِيحُ ٱبۡنُ مَرۡيَمَۖ وَقَالَ ٱلۡمَسِيحُ يَٰبَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ ٱعۡبُدُواْ ٱللَّهَ رَبِّي وَرَبَّكُمۡۖ إِنَّهُۥ مَن يُشۡرِكۡ بِٱللَّهِ فَقَدۡ حَرَّمَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيۡهِ ٱلۡجَنَّةَ وَمَأۡوَىٰهُ ٱلنَّارُۖ وَمَا لِلظَّٰلِمِينَ مِنۡ أَنصَ...

PURIFICATION OF THE HEART

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm al-khamis, 20th day of Swafar 1447AH, Thursday, 14th August 2025. *_PURIFICATION OF THE HEART_*. BismilLah.  A sister asked me yesterday how we can purify ourselves to achieve the immense benefits mentioned in our reminder yesterday.  The command to purify our hearts from sins was an essential Islamic teaching ever since the early stages of the revelation in Mecca. This is known as “purification of the soul” (tazkiyyat an-nafs).   ALLAH Azzawajal says: He has succeeded who purifies the soul, and he has failed who corrupts the soul. Surah Ash-Shams 91:9-10. Also, ALLAH Azzawajal says: A day when there will be no benefit in wealth or children, but only in he who comes to ALLAH Azzawajal with a pure heart. Surah Ash-Shu’ara 26:88-89.  We learn from these verses that our success in the Hereafter depends upon the purification of our hearts in this life. We must purify our hearts from spiritual sins such as greed, malice, envy, arrog...
