RULINGS ON OFFERING SALAT (The Prayer) WHEN THE FOOD IS READY or WHEN ONE IS IN DESPERATE NEED TO VISIT THE TOILET

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm As-sabt, 21st day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Saturday, 13th September, 2025.

*_RULINGS ON OFFERING SALAT (The Prayer) WHEN THE FOOD IS READY or WHEN ONE IS IN DESPERATE NEED TO VISIT THE TOILET_*. BismilLahir.


Our mother Aishah (May ALLAH be pleased with her) said: I heard the Messenger of ALLAH sallallahu alaihi wasallam saying, "No Salat (prayer) should be performed when the food has been served, nor should it be performed when a person requires relieving himself. Imam Muslim.


We learn from this Hadith that one should not offer Salat when he is hungry and the food has been served or has to answer the call of nature. The reason behind is that if one offers Salat in that condition, he will not be able to do it with full concentration. 


Similarly, if one has to answer the call of nature, he should first do so and then offer Salat. This doesn't mean that we sit down with hunger when time is approaching for salaat whiles food is available till when its time for salaat then we decide to eat before salaat then miss jamaat. When salaat time is approaching, check to see if you need to ease yourself or eat before time so that you can join jamaat salaat on time or offer your salaat on time. Whatever we do in life our priority should be to check salaat timings then seek time off to offer our salaat. Don't rely on your jobs to miss salaat please. Speak to your boss you need to offer salaat at such and such times even before you begin your job and by so doing to please ALLAH Azzawajal, HE will bless our income and purify our hearts. We ask Allah to have mercy on us and forgive our past, present and future mistakes in life. 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...

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...
