THE FURY OF HELL-FIRE

 FAJR REMINDER: THE FURY OF HELL-FIRE

By: Umm Affān

Dhū al-Qa'dah 18, 1447 (6-May-2026)


On the Day of Reckoning, the Hell-Fire will intensify in fury, raging with such Shiddat (intensity) that parts of it will seem to tear away from one another out of sheer Ghaḍab (fury) against the criminals. Allāh says: “For those who disbelieve in their Lord (Allāh) is the torment of Hell, and worst indeed is that destination. When they are cast therein, they will hear the (terrible) drawing in of its breath even as it blazes forth. It almost bursts up with fury…” [Sūrah Al-Mulk (67): 8-10] 


Moreover, Hell will not be satisfied with those cast into it; rather, it will continue to demand more. The gravity of that Day will be beyond what we can fully comprehend, and the Waqi' (reality) is that the majority of people will end up therein. Allāh says: “On the Day when We will say to Hell: ‘Are you filled?’ It will say: ‘Are there any more (to come)?’” [Sūrah Qāf (50): 30]


And why would Hell-Fire not be enraged with the criminals? Consider the widespread disobedience to Allāh in our times—associating partners with Him, the shameless exposure of women's nudity, the normalization of Zinā (adultery and fornication), the increase in unjust killings, the widespread consumption of alcohol, and the pursuit of wealth through unlawful means such as gambling, Ribā (interest or usury), and theft. Even music and musical instruments are now widely regarded as permissible. These are clear signs of moral decline and rebellion against Divine Commands.


Hell-Fire is not something to be taken lightly. Its reality is far more severe than we may imagine. Allāh says: “And what will make you know exactly what Hell-Fire is? It spares not (any sinner), nor does it leave (anything unburnt)! Burning the skins! Over it are nineteen (angels as guardians and keepers of Hell).” [Sūrah Al-Muddathir (74): 27-30]


We must, therefore, take Allāh’s Warnings seriously and strive bikulli juhd (diligently) to protect ourselves from ever entering Hell-Fire—even for a moment.


I beseech Allāh to save us from it and admit us into Jannah. 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...
