The story of ikhlas in everything we do.

 The story of ikhlas in everything we do. 

Alhamdulillah, there once lived a woman who was known as a pious woman. She would always try to do everything to please Allah and so people started to like her. 

Thereupon, she had a friend who was also like her and they used to do everything together. 


Oneday, these two friends were walking and thereupon, they saw a bag on the floor. They looked everywhere but no one was there. 

The two women stood watching the bag as they tried to come closer to it to see what it was. 

They then used a leaves to cover the bag and went away. 


The next day, there was announcement that a missing bag with jewels was missing and anyone who gets the bag is rewarded. 


The two girls met as they heard the information and then went to the announcer and told him of the bag 

The man who also wanted the bag rushed to go to the scene and took the bag. 

He said to the two girls, do not tell anyone of it and i will share with you the jewels. 

The two girls said what if the king finally realize we took it. 

The man said no one knows except the three of us. 

The two girls said if no one knew what of the day Allah will expose us infront of mankind. 

The man said forget and lets divide it. 

The two girls denied and went away. 

The man alone took it and went away with the bag. 

As he took and went away, finally the next day, news came the announcer was caught as the one who stole the money. He was disgraced and everyone was surprised. 


The two girls praised Allah for this disgrace. 

A lesson is we should always have ikhlas and taqwa in whatever we do as believers. 


Lets always do what is right even if no one sees us, Allah is the reason we should do the good for and he will never humiliate us.

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...

BEST TIME FOR TAHAJJUD

 *BEST TIME FOR TAHAJJUD* It is best to delay this prayer to the last third portion of the night. Abu Hurairah reports that the Messenger of Allah said: "Our Lord descends to the lowest heaven during the last third of the night, inquiring: 'Who will call on Me so that I may respond to him? Who is asking something of Me so I may give it to him? Who is asking for My forgiveness so I may forgive him?"' This is related by the group. 'Amr ibn Abasah reports that he heard the Prophet say: "The closest that a slave comes to his Lord is during the middle of the latter portion of the night. If you can be among those who remember Allah, the Exalted One, at that time then do so." This is related by al-Hakim who grades it sahih according to Muslim's standards, and at-Tirmizhi calls it hasan sahih. AnNasa'i and Ibn Khuzaimah also recorded it. Abu Muslim asked Abu Zharr: "Which late-night prayer is the best?" He said: "I asked the Messenger of A...
