Your Commitment

 *Your Commitment*

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

بسم الله الرحمان الرجيم

In the sight of Allah (swt), the most beloved deeds are not always the magnificent in size, but the most consistent. As the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) taught us, “Take up good deeds only as much as you are able, for the best deeds are those done regularly even if they are few.” 📚(Sunan Ibn Mājah 4240)

My People,

Consider this: The believer who, for three years, wakes every night to pray just 2 rak'ahs of Tahajjud has built a fortress of faith. Contrast this with one who prays 6 rak'ahs every night for a month, only to then stop completely. The first, through unwavering consistency, has built a habit that pleases Allah far more.

Muslim Faithful,

The Prophet (pbuh) personally warned us against the danger of starting and then abandoning this precious worship, saying: “O `Abdullah, do not be like so and so! He used to pray at night and then he stopped.” 📚(Al-Bukhari and Muslim).

Let us not be among those who start Tahajjud with good zeal, only to let their connection fade simply because, angels do not descend (every night) with briefcases of Naira and Dollars for people of Tahajjud. Yes. If the reward for Tahajjud was a daily deposit of Naira, Dollars or any currency into our accounts, the midnight hours would be the most bustling time for Muslims. In fact, we would compete for "overtime".😃

My People,

Tahajjud is one of the most cherished acts of worship a believer can offer on regular basis. Yes. And the beautiful news is that it is within everyone's grasp (You & I).

Let assume you wake up by 2AM, use 3minutes to perform ablution, 2minutes to get dressed, 5minutes to establish ONLY 2rakaat nawafil, 5minutes to make Du'a to Allah.. Total time spent = 15minutes. *Everything In 15minutes,* then, go back to catch up with sleep.

You see!

In a mere quarter of an hour, you can earn a pleasure and proximity to Allah (swt) that transcends this world. Yes. The Prophet (pbuh) confirmed this -  that “The best of all nawafil prayers is prayer in the depths of the night.” 📚(Muslim)

Furthermore,

This prayer is not just an extra—it is a divine safety net. Yes. On the Day of Judgment, where our obligatory prayers may have shortcomings, our consistent midnight nawafil prayers will be used to complete them. 📚(Sunan al-Tirmidhī 413).

By implication,

Your success, my success in the Hereafter is secured by our consistent midnight prayer, since it's the most rewarding of all the voluntary prayers.

Servants of Allah!

Imagine the angels, tasked with recording the names of the righteous, writing your name down each night you wake up for Tahajjud!. These angels document those who conquer their desire for sleep to stand before the King of Kings. And this "Roll Call" is every night.

Now,

The question is: Will your name be on that list every blessed night?

Therefore,

If u have not yet set ur phone alarm in a repeating mode, to wake u up for midnight nawafil *(Tahajjud)* everyday till the end of ur life, pls do so immediately.

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...

PURIFICATION OF THE HEART

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm al-khamis, 20th day of Swafar 1447AH, Thursday, 14th August 2025. *_PURIFICATION OF THE HEART_*. BismilLah.  A sister asked me yesterday how we can purify ourselves to achieve the immense benefits mentioned in our reminder yesterday.  The command to purify our hearts from sins was an essential Islamic teaching ever since the early stages of the revelation in Mecca. This is known as “purification of the soul” (tazkiyyat an-nafs).   ALLAH Azzawajal says: He has succeeded who purifies the soul, and he has failed who corrupts the soul. Surah Ash-Shams 91:9-10. Also, ALLAH Azzawajal says: A day when there will be no benefit in wealth or children, but only in he who comes to ALLAH Azzawajal with a pure heart. Surah Ash-Shu’ara 26:88-89.  We learn from these verses that our success in the Hereafter depends upon the purification of our hearts in this life. We must purify our hearts from spiritual sins such as greed, malice, envy, arrog...
