HOW GIVING UP MUSIC WILL MAKE YOU MORE PRODUCTIVE

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm al-ithnayn, 22nd day of Swafar, 1446AH (Monday, 26th August 2024).

*_HOW GIVING UP MUSIC WILL MAKE YOU MORE PRODUCTIVE_*. BismilLah. 


Unfortunately, the love of music to some muslims has replaced the love of the Qur'an AstaghfirulLah. That's dangerous and disaster in our ways of life. If you listen to QUR'AN less than you do to Music, then trust me, you are far from the mercy of ALLAH. You've switched off your own lights in your room and complaining about darkness. It's like washing your dirty clothes(our dark heart) with urine(music). Let's read how someone changed his life from darkness to light as follows; 


I used to have a library of lyrics in my head, and I would always be up to date with new songs and share them with my friends. I wouldn’t leave my house without headphones. It was something I was dependent on to study and relax, while in my car… it was just a significant part of my life.  And then I gave it up!


I used to hear stories about people giving up music. I never thought that would be me. “No way!” I thought to myself. However, after Ramadan 2015…everything changed.


Mind you, I didn’t give up music because I thought it was haram. In fact, I didn’t even look into the fiqhu ruling back then, and so it didn’t affect my decision.


I gave it up because I wanted to be closer to ALLAH, and I realised that music was preventing me from that. I wasn't just interested in listening to QUR'AN at all. 


Let me share with you how I gave it up and what the benefits I reaped from this decision were. How did it all begin? 


*_May ALLAH keep guiding us all_*. 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 ...

Friday and it's dignity.

 Friday and it's dignity. Alhamdulillah, Allah says, Al-Jumu'ah 62:9 يَآأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ إِذَا نُودِيَ لِلصَّلَوٰةِ مِن يَوۡمِ ٱلۡجُمُعَةِ فَٱسۡعَوۡاْ إِلَىٰ ذِكۡرِ ٱللَّهِ وَذَرُواْ ٱلۡبَيۡعَۚ ذَٰلِكُمۡ خَيۡرࣱ لَّكُمۡ إِن كُنتُمۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ O you who have believed, when [the adhān] is called for the prayer on the day of Jumuʿah [Friday], then proceed to the remembrance of Allāh and leave trade. That is better for you, if you only knew. Friday is the best day of the week because it was the day Adam was created, the day he entered paradise and the day he was removed from paradise. it was also the day he died and the hour(qiyaamah) will not come except on this day. Sahih. It was narrated from Aws bin Aws that: The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Whoever washes (ghassala) and performs ghusl, comes early to the masjid and sits near the imam and does not engage in idle talk, he will have for every step he takes (the reward of) a year's worth of good deeds, fasting it and...

The story of taqwa

 The story of taqwa. Taqwa means fear of Allah. There once lived a young woman who was very beautiful lady and had all the qualities a man needed. She was well covered and oneday ,she was attacked with her families. This woman was taken away and brought to a man who was the bandits leader. As she was brought, the man wanted to sleep with her as she was so sad and in pain. As she undressed and coming to her, she said fear Allah and know death can come to you now. If you have a mother or sister like me, don't disgrace and destroy my honor for I won't forgive you  The leader immediately remembered he had a sister he loved a lot and so he quickly stopped and dressed and said to the lady, you can go. All the bandits were amazed of what their leader did. Three days later,the man whose sister was there and everyone in the sister knew her brother was wicked man. So every man was sacred. So a stranger walking by saw his sister and he felt in love with her. She went to her and said I wa...
