FIGHTING OUR OWN EVIL DESIRES

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm al-ithnayn. 13th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Momday 22nd April 2024). *_FIGHTING OUR OWN EVIL DESIRES_*. BismilLah.


AlhamdulilLah for granting us to be part of this blessed day in this blessed week. It's my hope that majority of us are fasting from today till Thursday as highly recommended by theProphet sallallahu alaihi wasallam. May ALLAH accept it from us all. 

Sheikh Ibn al-Qayyim said in one of his books, “So whoever does not punish his devil in this abode through the remembrance of ALLAH تعالى following tawheed strictly, and seeking forgiveness from ALLAH and obeying ALLAH, then his devil will cause his punishment in the Hereafter with the torment of the hell Fire. 


We are all aware that as ALLAH'S protection and Mercy is in abundance for us to grab through HIS obedience so is SATAN'S influence in abundance for those who will disobey ALLAH as such it's important we declare jihaad against our wrong heart desires and strive to achieve ALLAH'S mercy and protection through practicing the deen fully not by mouth or ears but by good acts of worship the Sunnah way through learning authentic knowledge not as we wish or what our fathers and grandfather's said. Ask yourself if you are disobeying ALLAH in anyway and strive to stop it for the fear of ALLAH. 


Let's remember death regularly, it will aid us in all we do. If whatever you do does not involve pleasing ALLAH, don't waste your time please. Remember you can die anytime, any day. Are you ready to visit the grave? Do not follow your heart desires till death knock on you my brothers and sisters. 


May ALLAH help us to stop any acts of disobeying HIM. Aameen. 

رَبَّنَا آتِنَا فِي الدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةً وَفِي الآخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً وَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِ 

Rabbanaa Aatinaa fiddunyaa hasanatan wafil Aakhirati hasanatan wakinaa âzaabannaar. 

Oh Our Lord! Grant us good in this world and good in the life to come and keep us safe from the torment of the Fire (Quran 2:201). Aameen.

KNOWING ALLAH THROUGH HIS NAMES AND ATTRIBUTES

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Khamis. 12th day of Dhul-Qa'adah, 1444AH (Thursday, 1st June, 2023). *_KNOWING ALLAH THROUGH HIS NAMES AND ATTRIBUTES _*. BismilLah.  The first and most significant pillar of imaan (faith) in Islam is belief in ALLAH. As Muslims, we believe in ALLAH in accordance with HIS beautiful names and attributes. ALLAH has revealed HIS names repeatedly in the Holy Quran primarily for us to understand who HE is. Learning and memorizing the names of ALLAH will help us to identify the correct way to believe in HIM. There is nothing more sacred and blessed than understanding the names of ALLAH and living by them. How do we expect to worship, love, fear, and trust our Lord, The Almighty ALLAH, if we don’t know who HE is? ALLAH says in the Quran: And to ALLAH belong the best names, so invoke HIM by them.. (Quran 7:180). ALLAH, there is no deity except HIM. To HIM belongs the best names. (Quran 20:8). HE is ALLAH, the Creator, the Inventor, the Fashioner; to HI
