CHECK YOUR WAYS OF LIFE

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawmul Jumuat, 16th day of Muharram 1447AH, Friday, 11th July 2025.

*_CHECK YOUR WAYS OF LIFE_*. Bismillah. 

Alhamdulillah, for granting us the opportunity to be part of this blessed day of the week. 

Let's note that all calamities are sent by ALLAH Azzawajal because of our sins and are removed because of our repentance. The wisdom to derive from this formula is simple and effective, Imagine we don't face any calamities whilst we keep sinning with passion and getting whatever we want, Satan will keep deviating us making us feel it's normal till death. Remember what ALLAH says, HE does not change the condition of anyone till we change our ways of life to conform with HIS rules and regulations. 

Sheikh Ibn Al-Qayyim may ALLAH be pleased with him reported in one of his books that: Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib, may ALLAH be pleased with him, said, “A trial is not sent down except due to a sin, and it is not lifted except with repentance.”

Al-Jawab Al-Kafi 1/74. There are numerous hadith on this topic meaning we must be careful about our sins. All the problems we face are due to our sins one way or the other even though yes it can be a trial from ALLAH for HIS obedient servants. But Alhamdulillah, ALLAH loves to forgive when we sincerely seek forgiveness and repent from our sins. 

One of the best zikirs that can solve any kind of issues and even for whatever we need from ALLAAH Azzawajal is to regularly recite Laailaaha illaa Anta, Astaghfiruka wa atuubu ilaika. Yaa Hayyu yaa qayyuum biRahmatika astaqeeth. Meaning "There is none worthy of worship except you ALLAH. I seek your forgiveness and I repent to you. You are the living and maintainer of life so with your Mercy I seek your help".

*_May Allah guide us all_*

Ameen!
