ISLAM, THE MODERN BETTER ALTERNATIVE TO LIFE CONTINUES FROM YESTERDAY REMINDERS

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawmul Jumuat. 9th day of Dhul-Qa'adah, 1445AH (Friday 17th May 2024). *_ISLAM, THE MODERN BETTER ALTERNATIVE TO LIFE CONTINUES FROM YESTERDAY REMINDERS_*. BismilLah. 


AlhamdulilLah for blessing us to be part of this blessed day. 

So What is Islam saying about this topic we've been talking about for the past three days?

The message of Islam fits the Fitrah of man. ALLAAH (The Most Wise) created man in the best form. HE gave his Fitrah the ability to believe in the unseen. Thus, man's soul and its horizons are broader and more open than that of the rest of creation - like the animals, bird's and insects. In nature we can see the signs of ALLAH as ALLAH says:

"Do they not look at the camels, and how they were created? And at the heavens, how it is raised? And at the mountains, how they are rooted and fixed firm? And at the earth, how it is spread out?" (Quran 88:17-20).


In ourselves we can see ALLAH'S signs through the diversity of our languages, colours and nationalities. As ALLAH says:

"O mankind! I have created you from a male and female, and have made you into nations and tribes, that you may know one another" (Quran 49:13).


Having been told this, we must now recognise the Perfect way our Creator has chosen for us to follow, which is: "Indeed, in the Messenger (Muhammad [s.a.w]), you have a good example to follow" (Quran 33:21).


We have been commanded to worship ALLAH alone without partners. We must recognise and understand that HE is the Only True God who deserves to be worshipped;

To help us do this, ALLAAH (The Most High) sent the Prophet Muhammed (peace be upon him), to deliver and explain the Final Message of Islam, and to help us recognise and worship our Lord in the best manner. We have been told to form our lives' according to this Message, by following and imitating the Final Messenger who is our only guide to worshipping our Lord, ALLAH.


This is what it meant when we say: Laa-illaa-ha il-Allaah, Muhammadur Rasool-Allah. "There is no true God worthy of worship except ALLAAH, and Muhammad is the Final Messenger of Allaah" *_Alhamdulillah for guiding us to Islam_*. *_May HE, AL-FATTAAH (The Opener), The Judge guide the misguided relatives and friends to Islam_*. Aameen.

GIVE CHARITY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Ath-thalaatha. 28th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Tuesday 7th May 2024). *_GIVE CHARITY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD_*. Aameen.  Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: The Prophet (SallallahuAlaihiWasallam) said, "Charity is obligatory everyday on every joint of a human being.* If one helps a person in matters concerning his riding animal by helping him to ride on it or by lifting his luggage on to it, all these will be regarded as charity. A good word, and every step one takes to offer the compulsory congregational prayer is regarded as charity; and guiding somebody on the road is regarded as charity." [Sahih Al-Bukhari, 4/2891]. To show gratitude to ALLAH for keeping your body safe and sound, you should give in charity or do charitable deeds. Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: ALLAH'S Messenger (sallallahuAlaihiWasallam) said, "The strong is not the one who overcomes the people by his strength, but the strong is the one w

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 p
