بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Muslims across the world 🌎 are currently marking Ramadan, a month set aside for strengthening faith through fasting, prayer, reflection and acts of community development. Many people are aware that Ramadan means Muslims do not eat or drink from dawn to dusk, but there are also rules around other activities you should avoid. Yes. And one of those is killing time by watching haram programs on TVs, spending time jumping from one internet site to another or movies on streaming apps like Facebook, TikTok and the likes.

Infact,

The month of Ramadan holds much value for the followers of this religion, so much that they believe that this fasting absolves them of their past sins, as stated in the hadeeth of Abdur Rahman ibn Awf who reported that: *The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, whoever fasts in the month of Ramadan with faith and expecting reward from Allah (swt) will be rid of sins like the day he or she was born.”* 📚Source: Musnad Ah‌mad 1688

Therefore,

Conscious efforts should be made to avoid Time Killing. Why because, the importance of time in Islam cannot be underestimated as Suratul Asr acknowledge:

وَٱلْعَصْرِ ..........

Allah (swt) swear by time. Indeed, mankind is in loss. Except for those who have believed and done righteous deeds and advised each other to truth and advised each other to patience. 📚[Qur’an 103:1-3]

Now,

With regard to what we do and what we refrain from doing in the month of Ramadan and beyond, as Muslims, we should strive to refrain from spending time on watching TVs especially indecent movies which show things such as pictures of naked and semi-naked people and evil words; the same applies to things that appear on TV which go against the laws of Allah, such as images, songs, music 🎵 composed with musical instruments and misleading advertisements.

My people!

Ramadan is not a feasting season but a fasting one. Many of us focus more on food than the objective of becoming pious. So you have to be intentional by making this your ‘Best Ramadan Ever’. How can you do this? By setting simple goals and taking steps to achieve them. Purify your heart and focus on the quality of your deeds, not the quantity.

👉Sufyan AthThawri was heard saying before he passed away:👉 “If you depart to the hereafter without preparing the luggage of piety, on that Day you meet those who have. And you will regret not having been like them”.

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...
