THE VIRTUES OF THIS BLESSED DAY

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawmul Jumuat, 7th day of Swafar 1447AH, Friday, 1st August 2025.

*_THE VIRTUES OF THIS BLESSED DAY_*. BismilLah.  


ALHAMDULILLAH for granting us another blessed day of the week. We ask ALLAH Azzawajal to keep guiding and aiding us to act only for HIS pleasure. Aameen. 


The virtues of this day include the following: 

On it is Salaat al-Jumu’ah (Friday prayer), which is the best among the prayers each day. 


ALLAH Azzawajal says in the QUR'AN: 

“O you who believe (Muslims)! When the call is proclaimed for the Salaah (prayer) on Friday (Jumu‘ah prayer), come to the remembrance of ALLAAH (Jumu‘ah religious talk (Khutbah) and Salaah (prayer)] and leave off business (and every other thing). That is better for you if you did but know!”[al-Jumu’ah 62:9]. This verse has clarified to us that we must stop all kinds of activities on Friday to attend to khutbah sermon. 


Imam Muslim narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of ALLAH (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The five daily prayers and from one Jumu’ah to the next is an expiation for whatever sins come in between them, so long as one does not commit a major sin.” 


Let's note that WHOMEVER dies during the day or night of Friday, ALLAH Azzawajal will protect him from the trial of the grave. 

It was narrated that ‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Amr said: The Messenger of ALLAH (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “There is no Muslim who dies during the day of Friday or the night of Friday but ALLAH will protect him from the trial of the grave.”Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 1074; classed as saheeh by Sheikh al-Albaani in Ahkaam al-Janaa’iz, p. 49, 50. It's a favour from ALLAH for those ALLAH chooses to die on Friday, not by our choice because if you kill yourself even on Friday you will enter hellfire for killing yourself says the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam. 


As the Prophet recommended, we should try to recite Suuratul Kahf, take ghusul, cut our nails, clean our teeth with miswak, men should put on perfume and dress similarly to how we dress for Eid. *_We ask ALLAH Azzawajal to help us in our little efforts to please HIM_*. Aameen.

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...

BEST TIME FOR TAHAJJUD

 *BEST TIME FOR TAHAJJUD* It is best to delay this prayer to the last third portion of the night. Abu Hurairah reports that the Messenger of Allah said: "Our Lord descends to the lowest heaven during the last third of the night, inquiring: 'Who will call on Me so that I may respond to him? Who is asking something of Me so I may give it to him? Who is asking for My forgiveness so I may forgive him?"' This is related by the group. 'Amr ibn Abasah reports that he heard the Prophet say: "The closest that a slave comes to his Lord is during the middle of the latter portion of the night. If you can be among those who remember Allah, the Exalted One, at that time then do so." This is related by al-Hakim who grades it sahih according to Muslim's standards, and at-Tirmizhi calls it hasan sahih. AnNasa'i and Ibn Khuzaimah also recorded it. Abu Muslim asked Abu Zharr: "Which late-night prayer is the best?" He said: "I asked the Messenger of A...
