 The story of Musa A.S.


Alhamdulillah, one of the beautiful story to reflect is the story of musa A.S.

Musa a.s was born in Egypt at the time of a tyrant ruler called firawn(Pharaoh)


Pharaoh conquered all the tribes of that time and became their king. At that time, firawn had hatred from the Israelites and saw them as slaves.

The Israelites at that time was chosen people of Allah and Allah has favoured them among all peoples.


So one-day, firawn had a dream a child born among the Israelites will come to end his reign.

So firawn after consulting his dream interpreters for the meaning declared a law that anyone male child born among the Israelites should be killed.


So as time goes on,the Israelites were decreasing and left with old peoples. And firawn saw if he continues, there will be no people to work for them.

So he pass a law, if this year a child is born among the Israelites should not be killed but the following year should be killed.


So that year of no killing, the brother of Musa A.S was born called Haarun(Aaron).

The following year of killing, Musa a.s was born and his mother felt scared for him.

So she tied a rope to the basket and put the child into the river nile.

So when she saw the men of firawn were not there, she will nursed the child but there are around,she will put him in the basket.


One-day, the rope tied was removed and the basket was taken by river nile to the house of firawn..

Then his wife, Asiya was about to bath with her two maidens and saw a basket coming closer to her.

She sent the maiden to take the basket for her as she opened it, she saw a child and immediately had affectionate for the child.

So she took the child to firawn to adopt him as a child.


Firawn denied but later accepted as he saw Musa was not wise.

Some people said a fire and date was brought for the child to take but took fire and so firawn saw he was not the one.

So there was announcement on who to cater for Musa a.s.

All the women in Egypt were brought  but he did not feed on their breast so his sister, Miriam heard of this and went to her mother and told her.

The mother of Musa a.s went to the house of firawn and immediately the child took her breast feeding and so she was given her child back to cater for him.


A lesson here is that what Allah decreed, none can change it except it will happen even if it takes many years or people try to block such from happening, they cannot never succeed.


May Allah grants us tawakkal. Aamin

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 ...

One of the question asked is can a Christian enter Jannah today?

 One of the question asked is can a Christian enter Jannah today? Alhamdulillah, it is clear from Quran and hadiths that any christian who dies believing Jesus is God or son of God and do not believe in prophet Muhammad Peace be Upon Him will enter hellfire. Allah says, Al-Ma'idah 5:17 They have certainly disbelieved who say that Allāh is Christ, the son of Mary. Say, "Then who could prevent Allāh at all if He had intended to destroy Christ, the son of Mary, or his mother or everyone on the earth?" And to Allāh belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them. He creates what He wills, and Allāh is over all things competent. Allah says, Al-Ma'idah 5:72 لَقَدۡ كَفَرَ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلۡمَسِيحُ ٱبۡنُ مَرۡيَمَۖ وَقَالَ ٱلۡمَسِيحُ يَٰبَنِيٓ إِسۡرَٰٓءِيلَ ٱعۡبُدُواْ ٱللَّهَ رَبِّي وَرَبَّكُمۡۖ إِنَّهُۥ مَن يُشۡرِكۡ بِٱللَّهِ فَقَدۡ حَرَّمَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيۡهِ ٱلۡجَنَّةَ وَمَأۡوَىٰهُ ٱلنَّارُۖ وَمَا لِلظَّٰلِمِينَ مِنۡ أَنصَ...

PURIFICATION OF THE HEART

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm al-khamis, 20th day of Swafar 1447AH, Thursday, 14th August 2025. *_PURIFICATION OF THE HEART_*. BismilLah.  A sister asked me yesterday how we can purify ourselves to achieve the immense benefits mentioned in our reminder yesterday.  The command to purify our hearts from sins was an essential Islamic teaching ever since the early stages of the revelation in Mecca. This is known as “purification of the soul” (tazkiyyat an-nafs).   ALLAH Azzawajal says: He has succeeded who purifies the soul, and he has failed who corrupts the soul. Surah Ash-Shams 91:9-10. Also, ALLAH Azzawajal says: A day when there will be no benefit in wealth or children, but only in he who comes to ALLAH Azzawajal with a pure heart. Surah Ash-Shu’ara 26:88-89.  We learn from these verses that our success in the Hereafter depends upon the purification of our hearts in this life. We must purify our hearts from spiritual sins such as greed, malice, envy, arrog...
