Can We forge certificates for jobs and admissions in corrupt non Islamic countries.

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Arba'a. 28th day of Jumaadal Aakhir, 1445AH (Wednesday, 10th January 2024). *_Can We forge certificates for jobs and admissions in corrupt non Islamic countries*. BismilLahir.


According to Sharia (Quran, Sunnah and Consensus of Scholars), it's not part of the character of a true believer in ALLAH and the last day to lie or give false witness.  ALLAH Subhanah commands the believers to always speak the truth and give witnesses on the side of the truth, even if it is against one’s own self. 

ALLAH Says in the Holy Quran in Chapter 4 Surah Nisaa verse 135: “O ye who believe!  Stand out firmly for justice as witnesses to ALLAH,  even as against yourselves,  or your parents,  or your kin,  and whether it be (against) rich or poor: for ALLAH can best protect both.   Follow not the lusts (of your hearts) lest ye swerve,  and if ye distort (justice),  or decline to do justice;  verily ALLAH is well-acquainted with all that ye do.


Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 8.7 Narrated by Abu Bakra: ALLAH'S Messenger (saws) said thrice, "Shall I not inform you of the Biggest of the Great Sins?"  We said, "Yes, O ALLAH'S Messenger (saws). "  He (saws) said, "To join partners in worship with ALLAH; to be undutiful to one's parents." The Prophet sat up after he (saws) had been reclining and added, "And I warn you against *_giving forged statement and a false witness_*; I warn you against giving a forged statement and a false witness!" The Prophet (sallalLaahu ) kept on saying that warning till we thought that he (saws) would not stop!’ 


Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 8.116 Narrated by Abdullah: The Prophet (saws) said, "Truthfulness leads to righteousness, and righteousness leads to Paradise. A man keeps on telling the truth until he is recorded with ALLAH as ‘a truthful person’.  Falsehood leads to Al-Fajur (i.e. wickedness, evil-doing, etc.), and Al-Fajur leads to the (Hell) Fire!  A man may keep on telling lies till he is written before ALLAH, ‘a liar’." In light of the above commands of ALLAH and HIS Messenger (saws) it would indeed be a grave sin and not befit the character of a true believer to lie in order to gain a paltry advantage for himself in this world!    

If one trusts, obeys, and follows the guidance and commands of ALLAH and HIS Messenger (saws), one can be assured of never ever being misled; but if one believes, obeys and follows any other guidance, other than that of ALLAH and HIS Messenger (saws), one can be assured of being led astray.     


ALLAH Alone Knows Best and HE is the only source of strength. *_We ask that HE keep us away from any acts of disobedience and grant us the best in dunya and aakhira_*. 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...
