 *1/3 of the Rewards*

[[--- Episode One ---]]
---------------------------------

بسم الله الرحمان الرحيم

Islam is a faith that is flexible, lenient and merciful. Infact, Islam is mercy for the entire creation, especially if we reflect on one of the biggest gifts - *"the gift of Quran"*

Slaves of Allah!

Quran is Allah’s greatest gift to humanity – it is a book like no other. The Quran guides humankind to high standards of morality and motivate them to strive to be the best human beings possible. Yes. Whenever life becomes too difficult or we are beset by injury, illness, or unhappiness, Quran will light our way and lighten our burdens. It is a source of solace and ease. It is a mercy to humankind.

From hadith:

Abu hurairah (RA) narrated that the prophet (pbuh) said: *“gather around, for i will recite to you a third of the quran.”* then when people had gathered, the prophet (pbuh) came out and recited surah *“{قُلۡ هُوَ ٱللَّهُ أَحَدٌ}"* - Qul hu-wallaahu ‘Ahad (Ie - Quran chapter 112) and then went back in. People then said to one another: *“it must have been news from heaven which made him go back in.”* the prophet (pbuh) then, came out again and said: “i have told you that i will recite to you a third of the quran. Verily, it is equivalent to a one-third of the quran.” 📚 Authentic Hadith

Also,

Abu Sa’id al-Khudri reported: ~ A man heard another man reciting, *“{قُلۡ هُوَ ٱللَّهُ أَحَدٌ}"* - Qul hu-wallaahu ‘Ahad (ie - Quran chapter 112) again and again. The next morning he came to the Messenger of Allah, (pbuh) and told him about it, as if he thought it was not enough to recite only the surah repeatedly. The Prophet said, “By the one in whose hand is my soul, reciting it once (1X) is equal to a one-third of the Quran.” 📚Source: S‌ah‌i‌h‌ al-Bukha‌ri‌ 4726

Therefore,

It is evident that one who recites Surah Ikhlas once shall be rewarded for reciting one-third of the Holy Quran.

And,

Surah Ikhlas - ie - *“{قُلۡ هُوَ ٱللَّهُ أَحَدٌ}"* - is also known as Surah at-Tawheed. Yes. Tawheed means unity. So this Surah is all about explaining the Oneness of Allah which is the first pillar of Islam.

Muslim Faithful!

It is very clear how important frequent recitation of this Surah is. Infact, there are morethan 30 other BENEFITS of reciting this surah, one of which is that - "if you are not into any shirk in any way, Its recitation 10X (ten times) can help you enter Paradise. Yes. And what more could a Muslim ask for!

Evidence:

Hadith narrated by mu’ad ibn anas (RA), the prophet (pbuh) said: “whoever reads surah qul hu-wallaahu ‘ahad ten times, Allah (swt) will build for him or her a house in paradise.” Umar (RA) then said: “then we will increase our recitation of it.” the prophet (pbuh) said: "Allah is more kind and more generous.” 📚 Authentic Hadith

Now,

More BENEFITS of this surah 🔜 In shaa Allah if you read the next episodes of this article.

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...
