THE REAL MEANING OF “NOTHING CAN HAPPEN TO US WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH AZZAWAJAL” — CONTINUED

Bismillāh.

What Does the Permission of Allah Azzawajal Really Mean?

Allah Azzawajal says:

“No disaster strikes except by permission of Allah. And whoever believes in Allah, He will guide his heart.”

📖 Qur’an 64:11

This verse teaches us that even when painful events occur, they do not escape the knowledge and decree of Allah Azzawajal. In Islam, this is part of Al-Qadr (Divine Decree), which is one of the six pillars of Īmān (faith).

It means believing that:

  • Allah Azzawajal knows everything that has happened, is happening, and will happen.
  • Nothing occurs outside His supreme authority and will.
  • Whatever Allah Azzawajal decrees will occur, and whatever He does not decree will not occur.
  • His wisdom is perfect, even when we cannot understand the reasons behind certain events.

However, we must understand an important distinction: Allah Azzawajal allowing something to happen does not necessarily mean that He loves it, approves of it, or commands us to do it.

For example, people may lie, cheat, oppress others, or commit sins. These actions do not escape the knowledge and decree of Allah Azzawajal. Nevertheless, He has forbidden such actions and holds people accountable for their choices.

Allah Azzawajal says:

“Indeed, Allah does not wrong the people at all, but it is the people who are wronging themselves.”

📖 Qur’an 10:44

Therefore, belief in Al-Qadr must never become an excuse for wrongdoing, laziness, or abandoning our responsibilities. Rather, it should strengthen our trust in Allah Azzawajal, encourage us to remain patient during trials, and remind us to take responsibility for our actions.

We must strive to do what is right, avoid what Allah has forbidden, and trust His wisdom in whatever circumstances we face.

To be continued tomorrow, In Shaa Allah.

🤲 May Allah Azzawajal continue to guide and protect us from the whispers and evil influences of Shayṭān, strengthen our Īmān, and grant us a correct understanding of His Divine Decree. Āmīn.

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...

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 ...

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...
