THE SECRET

 🍀بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم🍀

THE SECRET.

When the great saint, Hazrat Khwaaja Qutbuddin Bakhtiar Kaki (rahmatullah alayhi) passed away, many people mourned this great loss. His casket had to be brought to a ground where there were many shayookh, pious individuals & countless followers who had gathered to perform the janazah salaah & pay homage to him.

When it was time to read the janaazah salaah, a man came forward & said:
"I am this man's wali (legal guardian) & he has asked me to convey his wishes to all of u present here for the salaah. Hadhrat Qutbuddin Bakhtiar Kaki (rahmatullah alayhi) wishes that only the person with the following 4 qualities will be allowed to lead his janaazah salaah. They are:
1. He always joins the jamaat at the first takbir.
2. He has never missed tahajjud salaah.
3. He has never stared at a non mahram woman.
4. He is so pious that he has never missed the sunnah salaah before Asr.

The crowd was shocked & so silent that they could have heard a pin drop. They looked around trying to see who had these qualities. They were quite sure that none of them possessed these qualities.

Just then a mureed of the shaykh walked up to the casket with tears in his eyes. He uncovered Hazrat Kaki rahmatullah alayhi's face & said:
"U have died & left me in an embarrassing situation. I swear by Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala that I fulfilled all of these requirements."

The people stared at this man in disbelief. He was none other but their king Shamsuddin Altamash & none of them knew that he led such a virtuous life.

Subhanallah!
If a king, who has an entire kingdom to control, can lead such a pious & virtuous life, then can't we do the same?

Isn't it time that we stopped making all types of excuses to get closer to our Loving Allah?
Isn't it time that we begin to truly tread the footsteps of our Nabi Kareem sallallaahu alayhi wasallam , which leads to the happiness & bliss we are all seeking & running after?
With every breath we take, we get a step closer to the grave.

Ya اللّـه, Ya Rabbi

اجعل خير عمري آخره
ij’al khair Umri Aakhirah
Make the best part of my life the last part of my life

وخير عملي خواتيمه
Wa Khaira Amali Khawatimah
aиϑ make the best of my action the last action that I do in this life

وخير أيامي يوم ألقاك فيه
Wa Khaira Ayyami Yowma Alqaak feeh
aиϑ the best day the day I return back to meet You.
آمـــــــــين يا رب العالمـــــــــين

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...
