بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Islam is a faith of ease. It is flexible, kind, and full of mercy. In fact, Islam is mercy for the whole world. And the biggest proof of that mercy is the Quran.

The Quran is Allah’s greatest gift to us. No other book is like it. It teaches us how to be good people. When life feels too hard, when you are sad, sick, or tired—the Quran lights your way. It makes your burdens lighter. It is a source of comfort and ease.

Now, here comes the mind-blowing part.

The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) once said to his companions: “Gather around, and I will recite to you one-third of the Quran.”

Everyone rushed to gather. They were excited to hear so much of the Quran at once. Then the Prophet (pbuh) came out… and he recited just one short chapter. Just three lines. Surah Al-Ikhlas:

“Qul hu-wallaahu ‘Ahad.

Allahus-Samad. Lam yalid wa lam yoolad.

Wa lam yakul-lahu kufuwan ‘ahad.”

Then he went back inside.

The companions were confused. They whispered, “Maybe news from heaven came down, so he had to go back in?”

But then the Prophet (pbuh) came out again and said: “I told you I would recite one-third of the Quran. And indeed, this chapter (Surah Al-Ikhlas) is equal to one-third of the Quran!”

My People,

Think about that. Reciting this small chapter once is like reciting one-third of the entire Quran.

Now, here is the mercy and the mind-blowing ease:

(1) You can recite it inside your prayer (swalah). At least, in every rakaat, you can recite any chapter from the Qur'an, then add suratul ikhlas in the end to grab the bonanza.

(2) You can recite it outside prayer — while driving, cooking, walking, or lying in bed.

(3) You can recite it with or without ablution (wudu) . Yes! Even without being in a state of purification. Because the Prophet (pbuh) would remember Allah at all times.

So what is stopping you?

You don’t need hours. You don’t need a special place. You don’t even need to be clean in the ritual sense. Just move your tongue and say:

“Qul hu-wallaahu ‘Ahad.

Allahus-Samad. Lam yalid wa lam yoolad.

Wa lam yakul-lahu kufuwan ‘ahad.”

That’s it.

In 5 seconds, you just earned the reward of one-third of the Quran.

Brothers, sister,

Do it once. Do it ten times. Do it a hundred times throughout the day.

Islam is merciful. Allah (swt) made it easy for you. Don’t leave this treasure empty. Start today. Start now. Recite Surah Al-Ikhlas and fill your scale of good deeds like never before.

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...
