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 ...

HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yaum Al-Khamis, 22nd day of Jumaadal Uula 1447AH, Thursday, 13th November, 2025.  *_HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN_*. BismilLah.  When we help our brothers and sisters in Islam, in reality, we are helping ourselves. The Messenger of ALLAH (S.A.W) said: He who relieves the hardship of a believer in this world, ALLAH Azzawajallah will relieve his hardship on the Day of Judgment. He who makes easy what is difficult, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will make it easy for him in the world and the hereafter. He who conceals the faults of a Muslim, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will conceal his faults in this ALLAH Azzawajallah world and the Hereafter, for ALLAH helps the servant as long as he helps his brother. Source: Ṣaḥīḥ "Muslim 2699. AlhamdulilLah.  With this I hope with immediate effect we will all strive to help each other in any possible way such as making dua for each other, supporting our relatives and those in need in ou...

THE MUSLIM WOMAN AND HER OWN SELF

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm athalaatha, 3rd day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Tuesday, 26th August 2025. *_THE MUSLIM WOMAN AND HER OWN SELF_*. BismilLah.  Islam encourages Muslims in general to stand out among people, readily distinguishable by their dress, appearance and behaviour, so that they will be a good example, worthy of the great message that they bring to humanity. According to the hadith narrated by the great Sahabi Ibn al-Hanzaliyyah, the Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam ) told his Companions, when they were travelling to meet some brothers in faith: "You are going to visit your brothers, so repair your saddles and make sure that you are dressed well, so that you will stand out among people like an adornment, for ALLAH (SWT) does not love ugliness." Reported by Imam Abu Dawud, 4/83, in Kitab al-libas, bab ma ja'a fi isbal al-izar. The Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) considered an unkempt and careless appearance, and scruffy clothes and furnishings, to be...
