 Assalamualaikum 💎 Abu Dardaa said: ❝If it were not for three things I wish not to remain in the Dunya: 1. Placing my face down in prostration to my creator across the alternation of the day and the night, preparing for the [true] life to come. 2. Experiencing thirst during the hottest part of the day [due to fasting]. 3. And Sitting with a people who select and choose their words [i.e. are careful with their speech] the way fruit is selected.❞ 📚Collected By As Suyooti in Ad Duril Manthoor, (6/648)

DON'T BE SAD Episode 20 OR DO THEY ENVY MEN FOR WHAT ALLĀH HAS GIVEN THEM OF HIS BOUNTY?

 ﷽ *DON'T BE SAD* Episode 20 *OR DO THEY ENVY MEN FOR WHAT ALLĀH HAS GIVEN THEM OF HIS BOUNTY?* Surah An-Nisa, Verse 54: أَمْ يَحْسُدُونَ النَّاسَ عَلَىٰ مَا آتَاهُمُ اللَّهُ مِن فَضْلِهِ فَقَدْ آتَيْنَا آلَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْكِتَابَ وَالْحِكْمَةَ وَآتَيْنَاهُم مُّلْكًا عَظِيمًا Or do they envy men (Muhammad [Blessings and Peace of ALLĀH be upon him] and his followers) for what Allah has given them of His Bounty?

Jealousy is a disease that wreaks havoc not only on the mind, but also on the body. It is said that there is so repose for the jealous one and that he is an enemy wearing the garb of a friend. In doing justice to the disease of jealousy, one can say that is a far one, for it begins with its bearer, killing him first. I forbid both you and myself from jealousy, because be...

Surah At-Taubah, Verse 9/10

*Surah At-Taubah, Verse 9:* اشْتَرَوْا بِآيَاتِ اللَّهِ ثَمَنًا قَلِيلًا فَصَدُّوا عَن سَبِيلِهِ إِنَّهُمْ سَاءَ مَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ They have purchased with the Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) of Allah a little gain, and they hindered men from His Way; evil indeed is that which they used to do.  *Surah At-Taubah, Verse 10:* لَا يَرْقُبُونَ فِي مُؤْمِنٍ إِلًّا وَلَا ذِمَّةً وَأُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْمُعْتَدُونَ With regard to a believer, they respect not the ties, either of kinship or of covenant!

HAVE YOU PAID YOUR ZAKAAT THIS YEAR?

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum ath-thalaatha 15th day of Ramadhaan (Tuesday 27th April 2021). *_HAVE YOU PAID YOUR ZAKAAT THIS YEAR?_* BismilLah. Zakaat is one of the Five pillars of islam. It is an obligation from ALLAH upon every Muslim who possesses the minimum amount of wealth given certain conditions. This is not Zakaatul Fitir or Eidul Fitir.  The type of wealth upon which zakat is obligatory are Monetary assets, Livestock, Agricultural produce, Merchandise. I will focus on monetary. Gold, Silver and currency. Zakaat [obligatory charity] must be paid on gold if it reaches the Nisaab [i.e. the minimum amount liable for Zakaah], which is 20 Mithqaal [a measure which equals 85 grams of pure gold, 1 Mithqaal = 4.25 grams], this means that one should pay ½ a Mithqaal as Zakaat, i.e., 2.5% of the value of gold. Zakaat must be paid on silver if it reaches the value of 200 Dirhams, which is the equivalent of 595 grams of pure silver; one should then pay five Dirhams as Zakaah, t...

IF YOU DESIRE TO RAISE CHILDREN WHO WILL GIVE YOU REST OF MIND ALL THROUGH YOUR LIFETIME, READ THIS WRITE UP!

*IF YOU DESIRE TO RAISE CHILDREN WHO WILL GIVE YOU REST OF MIND ALL THROUGH YOUR LIFETIME, READ THIS WRITE UP!*  Yesterday we attended an event that changed my perspective on raising kids completely in US. I will try to summarize the key points as it will be helpful to all. The speaker was Dr. Leonard Sax. Even though it was at the Centre it was not related to any religion. The speaker is a Jewish Psychologist and author of a famous book call Collapse of Parenting. He had a lot of statistical information and tips to raise kids in America. Even though it was more focused on American Kids, it applies to bringing up Kids in the Age of Internet and Social Media, the evils of which have spread like an epidemic in the whole world. I can tell you that this was probably the best 3 hour workshop we attended. Even though a big segment was dedicated to social media, it was primarily about raising kids who will go on to have strong character and virtue. I have summarized the points below. 1) S...

 ﷽ *30 Tips for a Guilt-Free Ramadān!* *DAY 14* *Miss That Feeling?* Once you’re able to get over the ‘physical’ barrier doing the good deed, it’s time to get over the mental barrier.  Ask yourself:  • Was it really that bad once I’ve done [the good [deed] again and took the  first step?  • What was stopping me before?  • How can I avoid this feeling of not ‘feeling’ like doing these good deeds from time to time? We’re not going to answer these questions for you: we want you to answer them. You may miss that feeling you had at the beginning of Ramadan, yet you shouldn’t get hung-up with the thought that you just don’t want to do it.

PREPARING FOR DEATH. The only way to prepare for the Hereafter and to achieve success is to fulfill our purpose of creation. Allaah says in the Qur'aan

 ﷽  ➖ ➖ ➖  *PREPARING FOR DEATH* ➖ ➖ ➖  The only way to prepare for the Hereafter and to achieve success is to fulfill our purpose of creation. Allaah says in the Qur'aan : *وَمَا خَلَقْتُ ٱلْجِنَّ وَٱلْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ* _And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me._ (Surah Adh-dhaariyaat, 51:56) _ The commentary on this Ayah includes a Hadeeth of The Prophet (ﷺ), in which he said : _*Allaah the Exalted said, "O Son of Adam! Busy yourself in worshipping Me, and I will fill your chest with riches and dissipate your meekness. Otherwise, I will fill your chest with distracting affairs and will not do away with your meekness.''*_ (Sunan al-Tirmidhī 2466)  No effort to please Allaah will be left unrewarded in this world and in the Hereafter, while every effort made to seek the pleasures of this world will come to naught. It will be to our benefit to remember that this world is a passing stage, just a road on our journey to our final dest...
