Remain Focused* [[---- Part 7 ----]]

 *Remain Focused*

[[---- Part 7 ----]]
------------------

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Dua is that act which ‘connects’ the slave to his Master. Especially in this blessed month of Ramadan, Dua, according to a Hadith, has the unique ability to change destiny. 📚(Tirmidhi).

So,

Instead of losing your membership card as a Muslim by going to verify about why this and that happened or engaging in useless demonic Sadaqah prescribed by the fortune-tellers or so-called Mallams or Alfas, one of the best approach to every problem or life challenges is Du'a making.

But,

Why do some du’as (supplications) remain unanswered?

*Condition No 5:* Your Failure to Remember or Supplicate for others.

Making Du'a for someone secretly is a PASSWORD to getting ur own Du'a answered. Yes. But on condition that, u do not go broadcasting it directly or indirectly to the person or anyone.

Evidence:

“The supplication of a Muslim for his brother in his absence will certainly be answered.. Every time he/she makes a supplication for good for his/her brother,, the angel appointed for this particular task says: “Ameen!!! May it be for you too,” 📚Muslim, 1494

Muslim Faithful!

As Muslims, we are supposed to feel the pain of other Muslims and pray for them. Yes. Scan through around your area, figure out someone with similar Life challenges, mention their names and ask Allah (swt) to solve their problems.

Similarly,

Life can throw us into the same situation where we might need duas from others. So, you can ask people to make dua for you as well. This is a tacky situation sometimes as there’s a fine line between depending on Allah alone or thinking that someone’s intercession is divine. Please know that nobody can fulfill your wishes except Allah. So asking others to make dua for you can simply be a way to connect. This does not mean that you go to someone with the intention that their dua will ALWAYS be heard. Yes. By the end of the day, if Allah doesn’t will, nothing can be done. But this does not mean that we can’t ask people to pray for us.

And if anyone ask you to pay or bring money to buy this and that to enable him make Du'a for you or slaughter animal or prescribe sadaqah for you to do before or after he finishes the Du'a for you, please run away from such Alfas or Mallam. Yes. But this doesn't mean that you should not give something to the person you requested to make Du'a for you.. If I say something, I mean anything you like to give the person and not what the person will CONDITIONALLY point out to you to give him.

We may not even have to ask people for a dua if we help them out in one way or the other, or solve their problems, or be of use to them. Duas may pour out directly from their hearts for you.

To be continued...

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...
