End of Devotion* [[---- Part Four ----]]

 *End of Devotion*

[[---- Part Four ----]]
------------------------------

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Our beloved Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) exemplified the beauty of PERSISTENT good deeds (even if it's small). He said:

“أحب الأعمال إلى الله أدومها وإن قل“

“The most beloved of deeds to Allah are the most consistent, even if they are small.” 📚(Sahih Bukhari)

*Bye-bye Qiyamul-lail & Tahajjud*

If the month of shawwal crescent 🌙 is sighted tonight or tomorrow, then, 85% of Muslim Faithful (worldwide) who established qiyamul-lail and Tahajjud in the month of Ramadan will go on 11 months sabbatical leave 😀. Yes. They will not pray midnight prayer again until another Ramadan. And many who may establish midnight prayer will not be CONSISTENT as they do in the month of Ramadan.

My people!

Qiyamullail & or Tahajjud is one of Allah’s most beloved sunnah practices, performed by His servants. This worship is a good sunnah throughout the year and not only in the month of Ramadan. And Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) did so until his leg became swollen. Then, Aisyah (r.a.) asked, “Why did the Prophet do this if His sin has been forgiven?” Prophet (pbuh)  said, “Can’t I be a grateful servant?” - 📚Muslim.

Naam,

During Ramadan, the mosque is filled with Tarawih or night prayers. The question is whether Qiyamullail practice end with the end of Ramadan or whether it continued within the family?.

Servants of Allah!

Even if we are very lucky to be admitted into Jannah (Paradise), our enjoyment will differ. Yes. Just like you see in this world 🌎 where some people live in one single-room *face-me-i-slap-you* type of apartment sharing toilet and kitchen facilities with other tenants😃. Yes. This is to tell you that even inside Paradise, *level-pass-level*😃 as the people who CONSISTENTLY observe Swalah in the middle of the night will be given a powerful better treatment.

Evidence:

Abdullah ibn Amr reported: The prophet (pbuh) said, *“Verily, in Paradise are rooms whose outside can be seen from inside and whose inside can be seen from outside.” Abu Musa said, “Who are they for, O Messenger of Allah?” The Prophet said, “For those who spend the night CONSISTENTLY standing for the sake of Allah while people sleep.”* 📚Source: Musnad Ah‌mad 6436.

Therefore,

If u have not yet set ur phone alarm in a repeating mode, to wake u up for midnight nawafil *(Tahajjud)* everyday till the end of ur life, pls do so immediately. Yes. It's not difficult bcos people are doing it everyday without missing.. It's all about priority!

Ending this reminder,

The Prophet (pbuh) said: *“O `Abdullah, do not be like so and so! He used to pray at night and then he stopped doing that”*(📚Al-Bukhari and Muslim)

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...

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...
