DO NOT SACRIFICE YOUR ĀKHIRAH FOR WORLDLY PROFIT

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

Dear brothers and sisters,

Ask yourselves:

What is the benefit of earning money through activities that displease ALLAH Azzawajal?

What is the value of increasing business profits while accumulating sins?

What will we say to ALLAH Azzawajal when we stand before HIM on the Day of Judgement?

Can wealth acquired through Haraam activities bring genuine Barakah into our lives?

Remember that provision (Rizq) comes from ALLAH Azzawajal. We must never assume that abandoning Haraam earnings will deprive us of the provision ALLAH has destined for us.

The Prophet ﷺ taught us that whoever abandons something for the sake of ALLAH, ALLAH will compensate them with something better.

Therefore, let us refrain from selling alcohol and other prohibited products. We must also avoid transporting, promoting, facilitating, or otherwise participating in Haraam transactions.

Never allow the desire for increased business profits to override your Islamic principles. No amount of worldly wealth is worth jeopardising your Ākhirah.

Muslim business owners should be encouraged to explore lawful and profitable alternatives that preserve both their livelihoods and their religious integrity.

If you have previously been involved in such activities, sincerely repent to ALLAH Azzawajal, abandon those practices, and seek appropriate Islamic guidance on how to deal with any unlawfully acquired wealth.

May ALLAH Azzawajal protect us from Haraam earnings, bless us with abundant Halal provisions, place Barakah in our livelihoods, and grant us the courage to abandon everything that displeases HIM, even when doing so appears financially disadvantageous.

Aameen Yā Rabbal-‘Ālamīn.

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...
