 FAJR REMINDER: WHAT IF RAMAḌĀN IS THIRTY? By: Umm Affān Ramaḍān 30, 1447 (19-March-2026) In the perfect Wisdom of Allāh, the crescent of Shawwāl was not sighted last night, and thus Ramaḍān continues today, completing this year’s Ramaḍān (i.e. Ramaḍān 1447) as thirty days. Abū Hurayrah (Raḍiyallāhu ‘Anhu) reported that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Whenever you sight the new moon (of the month of Ramaḍān) observe fast, and when you sight it (the new moon of Shawwāl) break it, and if the sky is cloudy for you, then observe fast for thirty days.” [Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 1081] Given this clear guidance, one may wonder why there is any fuss at all. Surprisingly, there are “Muslims” who feel uneasy about this outcome, as they are eager to conclude Ramaḍān and return to their previous habits. Subḥānallāh! I even came across a statement from someone who claimed that regardless of whether the crescent of Shawwāl was sighted or not, he would not fast today. This is a deeply troubling stance, stemming from ...

 *Saying Goodbye* [[-- Episode 1 --]] ------------------ بسم الله الرحمان الرجيم Wether we plan for it or not, one day, we will leave this world. Wise servant, Remember that our hearts are like a clean glass. Every day, dust gets in. The dust of bad thoughts, bad habits, backbiting, listening to gossip, watching haram programs on TVs and small or big sins. This dust makes our hearts dirty. A dirty heart does not listen easily. When the heart is dirty, we find it hard to obey Allah. We do things we know we shouldn't. It feels like a struggle. But Allah did not leave us like this. He sent us a perfect cleaner for our hearts. That cleaner is the Qur'an. And Guess what? Even though it's encouraged to know the meaning of the Arabic verses, but everybody must not know the meaning before they harvest the goodies in reading or listening to the Qur'an verses. Yes. Just read the Qur'an (at least 5 daily- minimum). Just listen to its audio. Play the Qur'an in your house al...

 FAJR REMINDER: TIME TO REFLECT! By: Umm Affān Ramaḍān 29, 1447 (18-March-2026) The blessed month of Ramaḍān is casting its shadow, it’ll soon leave. Fear grips the hearts of the true believers for the acceptance of their acts of worship therein and having the opportunity of witnessing another.  With sincerity, devoutness and determination we started the month - to be cleansed and free from our past sins. It tests our patience and fills our hearts with light and our minds with delight. Active nights, full of Qiyām and supplications; constant morning and evening Adhkār (remembrance of Allāh); unmissed forenoon prayer; better relationship with the Qur'ān; and various acts of worship. Time is spent eschewing vain talks, yet we’re fine for we instead engage in things more exciting which bring the promise of eternal glee. O Muslims! Let’s reflect on how much we’ve benefitted and how we’ll keep up after it’s gone? How do we continue the good after Ramaḍān? Truly, the Shayāṭīn will b...

 *Time for Qur'an* [[-- Episode 6 --]] ------------------ بسم الله الرحمان الرجيم There was a man named Muktar. Muktar was a good man to his wife and children. He was a Muslim. He prayed his five prayers, mostly. He believed in Allah with all his heart. One night, Muktar had a dream. It was not a normal dream. It was clear and felt very real. In the dream, he died. He saw his own funeral. People were crying. Then, two angels came to him. They were kind, but their faces were serious. They took him to his grave. Inside the grave, it was dark and tight. Then, a door opened in the darkness. A beautiful, shining man walked in. His face was bright like the moon, and he smelled nicer than any flower. He brought a light that made the grave feel like a garden. The man smiled at Muktar. "I am the rewards of your kindness to your wife and children." Muktar felt a happiness he had never felt before. He was safe. But then, another door opened. A terrifying creature entered. It was ugl...

Bismillah Let's continue from yesterday's reminder with our studies of suurah Al-Layl, Qur’an 92.  Verse 5 فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَعْطَىٰ وَاتَّقَىٰ As for the one who gives and fears ALLAH. This describes a righteous person who: Gives charity, Fears ALLAH Azzawajal. Early Muslims were encouraged to give even when they were poor. Practical Lessons: Give Sadaqah and Zakat. Support the poor and fasting people in Ramadan as we are currently doing and in Shaa ALLAH we will be among the successful.  Verse 6 وَصَدَّقَ بِالْحُسْنَىٰ And believes in the best reward. “The best reward” refers to Paradise and ALLAH’S promise. Practical Lessons: True generosity comes from believing in the reward of the Hereafter. Give sincerely even if no one praises you. To be continued tomorrow in Shaa ALLAH. *_May A...

 FAJR REMINDER: GIVING ZAKĀT AL-FIṬR By: Umm Affān Ramaḍān 28, 1447 (17-March-2026) Zakāt al-Fiṭr is an obligation upon every sane Muslim who has the means—young or old, male or female, free or slave. Its purpose is profound: it supports the poor and needy among the Muslims, purifies the fasting person from any idle or inappropriate speech uttered during Ramaḍān, draws the servant closer to Allāh, nurtures gratitude toward Him, strengthens one’s Eemān, and brings about colossal reward for our righteous actions. Therefore, anyone who has the capacity should strive to fulfill this obligation. As for its timing, Zakāt al-Fiṭr may be given one or two days before ‘Eid. However, the most virtuous time to offer it is on the day of ‘Eid before the ‘Eid prayer. Delaying it until after the prayer is not permissible, and it will not count as Zakāt al-Fiṭr. Ibn ‘Umar (Raḍiyallāhu ‘Anhuma) mentioned that: “The Prophet (ﷺ) enjoined Zakāt al-Fiṭr, a Sā'ā (portion) of dates, or a Sā'ā of barle...

 *Time for Qur'an* [[-- Episode 5 --]] ------------------ بسم الله الرحمان الرجيم My brother, my sister, stop for one moment. Think about your life. Think about the worries, the challenges that never seem to end. The pain in your heart. The things you are struggling with. What if the cure has been with you all this time? Yes! Allah (swt) has given you not one, but many powerful medicines. If you use them, your life will change for good. This is a promise from Allah, not from me. Muslim Faithful, Your soul gets hungry and thirsty, just like your body. If you do not feed it, it becomes weak, sad, and empty. And I'm reminding you today that, the Qur'an is the food for your soul. I know you would not let your stomach starve for food even for a day. So why do you let your soul starve? Why? Honestly, If we want every good in this world and the next world, then, we MUST make the recitation of the Qur'an a non-negotiable business. Yes. It does not have to be a lot (even 5 pages...

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yaum athalaatha, 28th day of Ramadhan, 1447AH, Tuesday, 17th March, 2026. *_TAFSEER OF SUURAH AL-LAYL(Qur’an 92), WITH SOME PRACTICAL LESSONS FOR DAILY LIFE continues_*. BismilLah. Let's continue from yesterday's reminder on this suurah.  Verse 4 إِنَّ سَعْيَكُمْ لَشَتَّىٰ Indeed, your efforts are diverse. People strive in different directions: some towards righteousness and others towards sin. This verse introduces the main theme: two different paths in life. Practical Lessons: Reflect during Ramadan: What am I striving for? Direct your effort toward pleasing ALLAH Azzawajal. To be continued tomorrow in Shaa ALLAH.  Our Ramadhan Sadaqah project is ongoing and Alhamdulillah over 100 needy people have been supported so far by your generosity. The last day to send your Sadaqah or Zakaatul Fitir is tomorrow Wednesday 29th day of Ramadhan by 3pm Ghana time so that I can ensure it reaches the right people before eid day on Thursday or Friday in ShaaALL...

 🔺 *NO such thing as “Laylatul Jaa’izah”*🔺 by Asma bint Shameem  Do NOT pick out the NIGHT BEFORE EID as something “special” or “virtuous” and do NOT make any SPECIAL ibaadaat on it.  Why not? Because there’s NO PROOF of any SPECIAL VIRTUES for the night before Eid.  And there’s NO SUCH THING as “Laylatul Jaa’izah” that’s proven from the authentic ahaadeeth of the Prophet ﷺ. Although it is true that Allaah Subhaanahu wa Ta’aala frees people from the fire of Hell at the end of Ramadhaan, the hadeeth talks about “the last NIGHT of RAMADHAAN”.  And NOT “the night of EID”.  You see, the “night” in Islaam begins BEFORE the day.  Thus, the night starts at MAGHRIB and lasts till Fajr. Then the day starts AFTER Fajr and lasts till the next Maghrib.  So when Allaah forgives people in the last night of Ramadhaan, that forgiveness happens in the LAST NIGHT of RAMADHAAN, which is the night BEFORE the last day of fasting.  And it’s NOT the night when th...

 FAJR REMINDER: HOLDING FIRM AFTER RAMAḌĀN By: Umm Affān Ramaḍān 27, 1447 (16-March-2026) Thanks to Allāh, we are truly in a blessed moment. It is worth asking ourselves: how far have we come during this month? What have we truly gained from it? Take a moment to reflect and perhaps even list the benefits and improvements you have experienced. Although the end of the month is approaching, it is not yet time to bid farewell, for there are still a few precious days remaining. These remaining days still hold opportunities for increasing acts of worship—prayer, supplication, recitation of the Qur’ān, charity, and other righteous deeds. The believer should continue striving according to his or her ability. It was reported that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Do those deeds which you can do easily, as Allāh will not get tired (of giving rewards) till you get bored and tired (of performing religious deeds).” Ā'ishah (Raḍiyallāhu ‘Anha) added: “The most beloved prayer to the Prophet (ﷺ) was the one ...

 *Time for Qur'an* [[-- Episode 4 --]] ------------------ بسم الله الرحمان الرجيم We wake up with worries. We go to bed with anxiety. We are always running, trying to find peace and happiness. We think: "If I just had more money, all my problems would be solved." But look closely. (1) Have you seen a person with a big house and nice cars, but their life is full of drama and sadness? (2) Have you met a simple person with little money, but their face is always bright with a real smile? This shows us something important. The peace we are looking for cannot be bought from a pharmacy😃. It cannot be found in a bank account. My People, Inside our hearts, there are two very dangerous sicknesses: (1) No Peace of Mind: Your heart is always restless, always worried, never calm. (2) No Contentment: You always feel you don't have enough. You look at what others have and feel poor, even if Allah has blessed you. Honestly, The two sicknesses above are more dangerous than cancer😃. ...

 FAJR REMINDER: DO IT HONORABLY! By: Umm Affān Ramaḍān 26, 1447 (15-March-2026) There is no doubt that Ramaḍān is the Month of the Qur’ān, and we are greatly encouraged to recite it aplenty. Reciting the Qur’ān is among the greatest ways of remembering Allāh. Allāh says: “O you who believe! Remember Allāh with much remembrance.” [Sūrah Al-Aḥzāb (33): 41] Engaging with the Speech of our Lord is a noble act. The superiority of Allāh’s Speech over all other speech is like the superiority of Allāh over His creation. Therefore, no one’s words should hold greater importance to us than the Speech of Allāh. After it, the most honored speech is that of Prophet Muḥammad (ﷺ). However, an error that sometimes occurs is when a person neglects other forms of Adhkār (remembrance of Allāh), especially the Adhkār after each Ṣalāh (prayer) and the morning and evening Adhkār, simply because they are eager to complete the recitation of the Qur’ān a certain number of times. Some people truly fall into ...

 🌷 *All about Zakaatul-Fitr (Fitraana)*🌷 by Asma bint Shameem  1️⃣ *What is Zakaatul-Fitr?* Zakaat al-fitr (also known as sadaqatul Fitr or Fitraana) is an act of worship that is obligatory for every Muslim, young or old, man or woman, if he has enough wealth for himself and his family for one day and night, on the day of Eid.  He must pay one saa’ of a local staple food to the poor Muslims on behalf of himself and for EACH of his dependents.  🍃The scholars said: “Zakaat al-fitr is obligatory for every Muslim, to be paid on his own behalf and on behalf of those on whose maintenance he is obliged to spend, if he has wealth surplus to his and his dependents’ needs for the day and night of Eid: one saa‘.” (Islamqa Fatwa # 207225) 🍃 Ibn ‘Umar radhi Allaahu anhu said: “The Messenger of Allaah ﷺ enjoined zakaat al-fitr, a saa’ of dates, or a saa’ of barley, for EVERY MUSLIM, slave or free, male or female, young or old, and he enjoined that it be given before the people...

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yaum As-sabt, 25th day of Ramadhan, 1447AH, Saturday, 14th March, 2026. *_TAFSEER OF SUURAH AL-LAYL(Qur’an 92), WITH SOME PRACTICAL LESSONS FOR DAILY LIFE_*. BismilLah. Let's continue from yesterday's reminder on this suurah.  Verse 1 وَاللَّيْلِ إِذَا يَغْشَىٰ By the night as it covers. ALLAH Azzawajal begins by swearing by the night when it envelops everything in darkness. In the Qur’an, ALLAH often swears by elements of creation to draw attention to their signs and wisdom. The alternation of night and day reminds humans that life also has contrasting paths and outcomes. Practical Lessons (Ramadan): Night is a time for reflection, prayer and closeness to ALLAH Azzawajal. Ramadan nights are especially valuable for Tahajjud and Qur’an recitation. Let's make good use of the few days left seeking Laylatul Qadr. To be continued tomorrow in Shaa  *_May ALLAH Azzawajal grant it to us all_*. Aameen.

 FAJR REMINDER: FROM A CAPTIVE TO A WIFE By: Umm Affān Ramaḍān 25, 1447 (14-March-2026) During the battle between the Muslims and the tribe of Banu Al-Mustaliq, one of those taken captive was their princess, Juwayriyah Bint Al-Ḥārith. She came into the possession of Thābit Ibn Qays Ibn Shammās (Raḍiyallāhu ‘Anhu) as part of the war captives. This situation, however, was extremely difficult for her to accept. Determined to regain her freedom, she approached her master and negotiated a contract of emancipation. It was agreed that she would purchase her freedom for nine Ūqiyyah. Yet she had no means to gather such a large amount, especially now that the daughter of a chief had become a captive without wealth. Seeking help, Juwayriyah insisted on meeting the Prophet (ﷺ), the one person she believed could assist her. She was known for her remarkable beauty and striking appearance. Our mother Ā’ishah (Raḍiyallāhu ‘Anhu) described the moment, saying: “…She then came to the Messenger of Al...

 *Time for Qur'an* [[-- Episode 3 --]] ------------------ بسم الله الرحمان الرجيم The world we are living today have changed so seriously that even people or creatures you did not offend will be on tireless assignment to finish you and your family. The story am about sharing now is true - Wallahi Tallahi Billahi: "A brother was worried. He had a bad dream, not once, but twice. In the dream, evil beings told him, "You are a strong wall protecting your family. We cannot reach them, so we will finish you." They tried to attack him, but they could not. Everything they did bounced back to them. This brother had a strong habit. Every single time he left his house, even for a short trip, he would recite Ayatul-Kursi and other Azkar for leaving the house. Then, as he walked or drove, he would be reciting the chapters he had memorized. One day, he went to a place inside his town. As usual, he was reciting the Qur'an on his way. At one spot, an accident happened. It was no...
