FIR'AWN COMMITTED WORSE ATROCITIES BUT ALLAH SAID IT WAS A GREAT TRIAL

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Al-Khamis. 25th day of Rabeeu ath-thaani, 1445AH (Thursday, 9th November, 2023). *_FIR'AWN COMMITTED WORSE ATROCITIES BUT ALLAH SAID IT WAS A GREAT TRIAL_*. BismilLah. 


AlhamdulilLah for blessing us to be part of this blessed day. I hope majority are fasting. At this sad reality of our fellow Muslims suffering across the globe, lets remind each other about what ALLAH says during similar times in the past. 

ALLAH says in Qur'an 2:49

وَإِذْ نَجَّيْنَٰكُم مِّنْ ءَالِ فِرْعَوْنَ يَسُومُونَكُمْ سُوٓءَ ٱلْعَذَابِ يُذَبِّحُونَ أَبْنَآءَكُمْ وَيَسْتَحْيُونَ نِسَآءَكُمْۚ وَفِى ذَٰلِكُم بَلَآءٌ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ عَظِيمٌ 

And [recall] or remember when ALLAH saved you [i.e., your forefathers] from the people of Pharaoh, who afflicted you with the worst torment, slaughtering your [newborn] sons and keeping your females alive. And in that was a great trial from your Lord. Allahu Akbar. 


Ibn Jarir may ALLAH be  pleased with him  commented that this part of the Ayah means,

"Our saving your fathers from the torment that they suffered by the hand of Pharaoh, is a great blessing from your Lord."


We should mention that in the blessing there a is test, the same as with hardship, for ALLAH says,

وَنَبْلُوكُم بِالشَّرِّ وَالْخَيْرِ فِتْنَةً

And We shall make a trial of you with evil and with good. (21:35).

and also,

وَبَلَوْنَـهُمْ بِالْحَسَنَـتِ وَالسَّيِّيَاتِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْجِعُونَ

And We tried them with good (blessings) and evil (calamities) in order that they might turn (to obey ALLAH). (7:168). What's the purpose of the trial? IN ORDER THAT THEY MIGHT TURN TO OBEY ALLAH. This basically means, our suffering can help us turn to ALLAH if indeed we have eemaan but the oppressors will definitely be punish in dunya and on judgement day as ALLAH did to FIR'AWN and his evil followers. *_May ALLAH keeps guiding us all and protect us from any 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 ...

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...

 THE SERIAL MASK BY MORUFAT AJANI CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE Meanwhile, the chief detective watches their conversation unfold. He doesn't want to scold detective Precious in the presence of the civilian so he waits till the conversation is over and then calls her to his office. He warns her to stop harassing the suspect and that if she does it again, he will sack her from the case. “Yes, sir.” Precious says and then the chief ask her to tell her details about how to find Hanan.
