The End Of Ramaḍān

*The End Of Ramaḍān*

Ibn Rajab al-Ḥanbalī رحمه الله said these lines of poetry upon completion of Ramaḍān:

• Oh you, who your Lord has freed from the Fire, be warned of returning to the servitude of the wretched after being freed!

• Will your Lord distance you from the Fire, while you seek to become nearer to it?! He (Allāh) saved you from it, while you seek to throw yourself in it, and don’t care to protect yourself from it!

• If mercy is shown to the good-doers, then the wrong-doer should not despair from it, and if forgiveness is shown to those who have piety, then one who has wronged himself will not be deprived of it.

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
