Salute the Prophet*

 *Salute the Prophet*

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

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Did you remember that: Aus bin Aus (RA) reported: The prophet (pbuh) said, *“Among the best of your days is Friday; so supplicate Allah more often for me in it , for your supplications will be displayed to me.”* He was asked: “O Messenger of Allah! How will our blessings be displayed to you when your decayed body will have mixed with the earth?” He (PBUH) replied, “Allah has prohibited the earth from consuming the bodies of the Prophets.” 📚 [Abu Dawood, Saheeh Al-Albani]

Servants of Allah!

If we send countless SALUTATIONS to our prophet (pbuh) everyday ESPECIALLY on Friday,

▪️ Our status will be raised &  our sins will be forgiven - Reference 📚(An-Nisa’i Sahih)

▪️It helps our Du'a get accepted - Reference📚 (At-Tirmidhi)

▪️Allah (swt) will send blessings on you - Reference 📚 (Sahih Muslim, 384).

▪️The Prophet (pbuh) will receive and return your greetings - Reference 📚 (An-Nisa’i) & (Abi Dawood Sahih)

▪️It will draw you closer to the Prophet (pbuh) - Reference 📚(At-Tirmidhi, 484)

▪️All your worries will be lifted (meaning, you will get all the good u wanted easily) - Reference 📚 (Sahih Musnad Ahmed)

My people!

Majority of Muslims today lose all their rewards expected to be gained by attending jummah prayer behind imam on Friday just because they did not know things they do which nullify their rewards.

Today, we see Muslim faithful talking/discussing, pressing phone, running from one Internet site to another and even answering phone calls while the imam is on the Minbar saying Friday Khutbah (sermon). All these actions are actions which nullify ones jumaat reward completely. Also, playing with things like our fingers or any body part, clothes, items, car keys etc is prohibited. In fact, even saying of Salam to someone is not permissible at that moment.

Slaves of Allah!

Those who attend Jumu’ah prayer should be quiet and listen attentively to the imam when he is preaching. It is not permissible to speak to others, even if that is to tell them to be quiet. Whoever does that has engaged in idle talk (laghw), and whoever engages in idle talk, his Jumu’ah prayer does not count.  📚Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 892; Muslim, 851).

Muslim Faithful!

We should remember that, Allah (swt) did not design it that HIS Angels from the sky should descend to do the jobs of masjid maintenance meant for human beings.

Yes. It's not only in our houses that caretaking culture is required, but even in the masjid where we worship Allah (swt), maintenance and replacement culture is a necessity.

Therefore,

I remind myself, you and every woman who pray at home to prepare to be dropping something (reasonable) inside FISSABILILLAHI BOX everyday especially today Friday.

Even women who pray at home?

Yes. Women who pray at home should also not be left behind in budgeting something for the maintenance of the house of Allah. As many masaajid have account details which she can use to send her contribution. She can also send her husband or son to help her drop something inside Fissabilillahi box *(ie - if she knows that her husband or son will not corner it into his pocket)*. We should do this REGULARLY especially on FRIDAY - for the running of the activities of the masjid & for the propagation of the religion of Allah in general.

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...
