BENEFITS OF SALAAH

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm al-khamis, 6th day of Swafar 1447AH, Thursday, 31st July 2025.

*_BENEFITS OF SALAAH_*. BismilLah. 


Islam, which means complete and peaceful submission to the Will of ALLAH (God) and obedience to HIS Law, is the perfect religion and the complete way of life for all mankind. One of the very significant Aayat (Qur'anic verses) that ALLAH finally revealed to Prophet Muhammad (may the peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him), clearly states that Islam is perfect. ALLAH, the (only) God in heaven and on earth (43:84) and our Creator (2:21), says in the Glorious Qur'an:

"...This day I have perfected your religion for you, completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion..." (5:3). 


Islam provides us with complete guidance for every aspect of our lives. It solves all sorts of problems facing humanity now and in the future, be it physical, material or economic, socio-cultural, political, legal, religious and spiritual, and the like. Everything it enjoins us to do is for our benefit. An example of this is the performance of Salat (Islamic prayers), particularly the five compulsory daily prayers. ALLAH Azzawajal commands us to perform Salat (2:110; 4:103; 20:14) for our benefit and not because HE needs it as HE is free of any need. HE does not depend on anyone. ALLAH alone possesses all power. HE is the All-Knowing, the Powerful (42:50), the Almighty, the Wise (59:24). When HE desires a thing HE only says 'Be' and it is (36:82). In other words, nothing is impossible to Him. HE is the Cherisher and Sustainer of the Worlds (1:2). All creatures depend on HIM (11:6). To HIM belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. HE creates what HE wills (42:49). HE enlarges and restricts provisions to whom HE wills (49:12). True prayer is due to HIM Alone (13:14). We have to worship ALLAH Azzawajal Alone (6:102, 103; 11:1-2) because HE commands us to worship HIM. ALLAH Azzawajal says:


"That is ALLAH your Rabb(Lord)! There is NONE but HE, the Creator of all things; then you worship HIM: and HE has the power to dispose of all affairs. No vision can grasp HIM, but HIS Grasp is over all vision; HE is Subtle, Well-Aware." (6:102-103). 


 *_May ALLAH keep guiding Us all._*

 Ameen.

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 ...

HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yaum Al-Khamis, 22nd day of Jumaadal Uula 1447AH, Thursday, 13th November, 2025.  *_HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN_*. BismilLah.  When we help our brothers and sisters in Islam, in reality, we are helping ourselves. The Messenger of ALLAH (S.A.W) said: He who relieves the hardship of a believer in this world, ALLAH Azzawajallah will relieve his hardship on the Day of Judgment. He who makes easy what is difficult, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will make it easy for him in the world and the hereafter. He who conceals the faults of a Muslim, ALLAH ALLAH Azzawajallah will conceal his faults in this ALLAH Azzawajallah world and the Hereafter, for ALLAH helps the servant as long as he helps his brother. Source: Ṣaḥīḥ "Muslim 2699. AlhamdulilLah.  With this I hope with immediate effect we will all strive to help each other in any possible way such as making dua for each other, supporting our relatives and those in need in ou...

THE MUSLIM WOMAN AND HER OWN SELF

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm athalaatha, 3rd day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Tuesday, 26th August 2025. *_THE MUSLIM WOMAN AND HER OWN SELF_*. BismilLah.  Islam encourages Muslims in general to stand out among people, readily distinguishable by their dress, appearance and behaviour, so that they will be a good example, worthy of the great message that they bring to humanity. According to the hadith narrated by the great Sahabi Ibn al-Hanzaliyyah, the Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam ) told his Companions, when they were travelling to meet some brothers in faith: "You are going to visit your brothers, so repair your saddles and make sure that you are dressed well, so that you will stand out among people like an adornment, for ALLAH (SWT) does not love ugliness." Reported by Imam Abu Dawud, 4/83, in Kitab al-libas, bab ma ja'a fi isbal al-izar. The Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) considered an unkempt and careless appearance, and scruffy clothes and furnishings, to be...
