Don't say Goodbye

 *Don't say Goodbye*

-------------------------------

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

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”.

Now,

If after the end of this year month of Ramadan, you are not longer CONSISTENT in making up for midnight prayer (Tahajjud) then, there is a problem because it's expected that the month of Ramadan should be a drycleaner to our body and soul.

My people!

We should not to allow our appearances, our strength, health and youth to deceive us. Yes. That is because all of this is nothing but a mirage that one may see as water, but once he reaches it, he finds nothing.. Health will be followed by sickness, youth will be followed by old age, and strength will eventually turn into weakness.

Servants of Allah!

Worshipping Allah (swt) diligently should not only be limited some periods but throughout the year. This is evident in the saying of Allah The Almighty:

وَٱعْبُدْ رَبَّكَ حَتَّىٰ يَأْتِيَكَ ٱلْيَقِينُ

{And worship your Lord until there comes to you the certainty (ie - death.} 📚[Quran 15:99]

And,

As a sincere muslim, we need to wake up and pay attention to the necessities bcos - Life is short even if it seems long, and happiness will end no matter how long it lasts.

This reminds me,

I have seen someone who is into *investment in midnight nawafil* for the past 10years without missing more than 3 night😳. Yes. And the amazing thing is that - this person is well educated and go to work too, he is not poor bcos people believe that only the poor worship Allah well well😀. This person, even in sickness, he has not missed more than 3  nights in 10years without waking up for tahajjud. Yes. In sickness, this person will struggle to perform tayyamum (dry ablution) and pray 2 rakaats sitting down, then go back to bed.. Allahu Akbar❗I think all of us should be Jealous of this kind of person by making tahajjud (midnight nawafil) a habit bcos 10-15minutes to be used for midnight nawafil is nothing compared to *hours* we spent during the day doing nothing.

It's good to remember that,

Tahajjud prayer is one of the greatest act of worship that our creator love we establish everyday without missing. Yes. And it's not something difficult.. Let assume you wake up by 2AM, use 3minutes to perform ablution, 2minutes to get dressed, 5minutes to establish ONLY 2rakaat nawafil, 5minutes to make Du'a to Allah.. Total time spent = 15minutes. *Everything In 15minutes,* then, go back to catch up with sleep

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 ...

GIVE CHARITY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Ath-thalaatha. 28th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Tuesday 7th May 2024). *_GIVE CHARITY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD_*. Aameen.  Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: The Prophet (SallallahuAlaihiWasallam) said, "Charity is obligatory everyday on every joint of a human being.* If one helps a person in matters concerning his riding animal by helping him to ride on it or by lifting his luggage on to it, all these will be regarded as charity. A good word, and every step one takes to offer the compulsory congregational prayer is regarded as charity; and guiding somebody on the road is regarded as charity." [Sahih Al-Bukhari, 4/2891]. To show gratitude to ALLAH for keeping your body safe and sound, you should give in charity or do charitable deeds. Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: ALLAH'S Messenger (sallallahuAlaihiWasallam) said, "The strong is not the one who overcomes the people by his strength, but the strong is the one w...

IMPORTANCE OF SEEKING KNOWLEDGE An obligation upon every Muslim

 ﷽ ➖➖➖ *IMPORTANCE OF SEEKING KNOWLEDGE* ➖➖➖ *An obligation upon every Muslim* ➖➖➖  Allah ﷻ says  *وَعَلَّمَ ءَادَمَ الأَسْمَآءَ كُلَّهَا* _And He taught Adam all the names of everything_ Meaning, the names that people use, such as human, animal, sky, earth, land, sea, horse, donkey, and so forth, including the names of the other species" *ثُمَّ عَرَضَهُمْ عَلَى الْمَلَـئِكَةِ* _Then He showed them to the angels_ Meaning, the creations. Qatadah رحمه الله said, _"Allah paraded the objects before the angels"_ *فَقَالَ أَنۢبِـُٔونِى بِأَسْمَآءِ هَٰٓؤُلَآءِ إِن كُنتُمْ صَٰدِقِينَ* _And said, "Tell Me the names of these if you are truthful."_ [2:31] This was said to the Angels who in the previous verse said : *أَتَجْعَلُ فِيهَا مَن يُفْسِدُ فِيهَا وَيَسْفِكُ الدِّمَآءَ* _Will You place therein those who will make mischief therein and shed blood._ [2:30] _ So they the Angels said  *قَالُواْ سُبْحَـنَكَ لاَ عِلْمَ لَنَآ إِلاَّ مَا عَلَّمْتَنَآ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ الْعَلِي...
