QUALITIES OF A SUCCESSFUL MUSLIM

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Khamis. 16th day of Muharram, 1445AH (Thursday, 3rd August, 2023).

*_QUALITIES OF A SUCCESSFUL MUSLIM_*. BismilLah. 


Alhamdulillah for granting us another blessed day of the week and hope majority are fasting. As Muslims we must always strive to be better and there are some qualities ALLAH has mentioned in the Quran to help us in our efforts. 

ALLAH says in Quran 23:1-10:

قَدْ أَفْلَحَ الْمُوْمِنُونَ

Successful indeed are the believers,

means, they have attained victory and are blessed, for they have succeeded. These are the believers who have the following characteristics:

الَّذِينَ هُمْ فِي صَلَتِهِمْ خَاشِعُونَ

Those who are humble and submissive during their Salaah or when they are praying. Meaning their concentration is high and very attentive during their prayers. If you cannot concentrate in your salaat thats a serious matter that you need to find solution for. There are couple of recommendations to help us concentrate during our salaat such as perfecting our wuduu first without any dunya or worldly issues occupying your mind during your wuduu. Then plan the suurahs to recite and choose those you at least understand and your eyes must focus at the point of your sujuud spot whilst standing reciting. Dress decently knowing you are standing in front of ALLAH and believing ALLAH is watching you live listening to you. Recite gently with tajweed if you can and if you cannot then make it a priority to study the quran because its a shame that we can easily sing haraam songs but cannot recite quran AstaghfirulLah. To be continued tomorrow in Shaa ALLAH. *_May ALLAH keep guiding and protecting us from all satanic influences_*. 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...
