Surah Yusuf, Verse 79/80

﷽  *Surah Yusuf, Verse 79:* قَالَ مَعَاذَ اللَّهِ أَن نَّأْخُذَ إِلَّا مَن وَجَدْنَا مَتَاعَنَا عِندَهُ إِنَّا إِذًا لَّظَالِمُونَ He said: "Allah forbid, that we should take anyone but him with whom we found our property. Indeed (if we did so), we should be Zalimun (wrong-doers)." ﷽ *Surah Yusuf, Verse 80:* فَلَمَّا اسْتَيْأَسُوا مِنْهُ خَلَصُوا نَجِيًّا قَالَ كَبِيرُهُمْ أَلَمْ تَعْلَمُوا أَنَّ أَبَاكُمْ قَدْ أَخَذَ عَلَيْكُم مَّوْثِقًا مِّنَ اللَّهِ وَمِن قَبْلُ مَا فَرَّطتُمْ فِي يُوسُفَ فَلَنْ أَبْرَحَ الْأَرْضَ حَتَّىٰ يَأْذَنَ لِي أَبِي أَوْ يَحْكُمَ اللَّهُ لِي وَهُوَ خَيْرُ الْحَاكِمِينَ So, when they despaired of him, they held a conference in private. The eldest among them said: "Know you not that your father did take an oath from you in Allah's Name, and before this you did fail in your duty with Yusuf (Joseph)? Therefore I will not leave this land until my father permits me, or Allah decides my case (by releasing Benjamin) and He is the Best of the judge...

ISLAM IS THE ONLY RELIGION OF GOD ALMIGHTY, ALLAH

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt, 22nd day of Rabi-ul Aakhir. (Saturday, 27th of November 2021). *_ISLAM IS THE ONLY RELIGION OF GOD ALMIGHTY, ALLAH_*. BismilLah.  I usually remind ourselves that Islam is a way of life set by ALLAH and HIS  Messengers and the final Messenger to mankind without any doubt is Mohammed sallalLaahu Alaihi Wasallam so who ever claims to worship ALLAH or GOD in English must follow the ways of the final Messenger Muhammad sallalLaahu Alaihi Wasallam. ALLAH says in HIS final gospel to mankind that *_There is ONLY ONE religion of ALLAH in the heavens and the earth and that is the religion of Islam_* (Quran 3:19). And HE says again: I am pleased with Islam as a religion for you (Qur'an 5:3). ALLAH says again;  “And whoever seeks a religion other than Islam, it will never be accepted of him, and in the Hereafter he will be one of the losers” [Qur'an 3:85] ALLAH commanded the Prophet to say: “O mankind! Verily, I am SENT to YOU ALL as t...

*N10, N20 Doesn't Befits Anymore* [[-------1️⃣ of 3️⃣------]] ----------------------------- بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم Can we compare the monthly collection of two workers - Mr A who saved N10 or N20 everyday for 30days and Mr B who saved N50 or N100 everyday for 30days? Obedient Servants Of Allah! We all know that the prices of things have triplicate especially in Nigeria. Yes. We can hardly see N10 biscuits now (except in remote villages - maybe). The present high cost of living did not leave anything and this include - *the maintenance of the Masjid*. This is why it has become very necessary to call on the attention of people who drop N10 or N20 inside Fissabilillahi box that *N10, N20 Doesn't Befits* anymore.. After all, encouraging Muslims to drop something reasonable inside Fissabilillahi box everyday is not different with encouraging Muslims to *Save in their Accounts of Good Deeds*. So, it's not the person who remind you to drop something reasonable inside Fissabilillah...

Ar-Raheeq Al-Makhtum (The Sealed Nectar).* Excellent Biography of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ Episode 75

 ﷽ *Ar-Raheeq Al-Makhtum (The Sealed Nectar).* Excellent Biography of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ Episode 75 *SOME SIGNIFICANT INSTANCES OF DEVOTION IN THE BATTLE OF BADR* 1. The Prophet (Peace be upon him) advised his companions to preserve the lives of Banu  Hashim who had gone out to Badr with the polytheists unwillingly because they had feared the censure of their people. Among them, he named Al-‘Abbas bin ‘Abdul Muttalib and Abu  Bukhtari bin Hisham. He ordered the Muslims to capture, but not to kill them. Abu Hudhaifah  bin ‘Utbah showed great surprise and commented saying: “We kill our fathers, children, brothers and members of our clan, and then come to spare Al-‘Abbas? By Allâh! If I see him I will surely strike him with my sword.” On hearing these words, the Messenger of Allâh  (Peace be upon him), addressing ‘Umar bin Al-Khattab, said “Is it fair that the face of the  Messenger’s uncle be struck with sword?” ‘Umar got indignant and threatened to kill Abu...

 ﷽ *THE HAPPIEST WOMAN IN THE WORLD* (A TREASURE CHEST OF REMINDERS) Episode 61 *THE ATTITUDE OF A LIFE PARTNER* "Do not get angry, do not get angry, do not get angry." [Hadīth] The righteous believing woman does not exhaust her husband with too many requests. She is content with which Allāh has decreed for her. Her example in that is the family of the Messenger of Allāh (Blessings and Peace be upon him). 'Urwah narrated from his maternal aunt 'Ā'ishah (may Allāh be pleased with her) that she used to say: "By Allāh, O' son of my brother! We watched the new moon come, then the next, then the next, three new moons in two months, and no fire was lit in the houses of the Messenger of Allāh." I said: "O' aunt! What did you live on?" She said: "The two black ones, dates and water. But the Messenger of Allāh had some neighbours among the Ansār, (Madīnan Muslims who helped the Makkan Muslim migrants). They had goats, so they used to send s...

THE GUIDANCE OF QUR'AN, SUNNAH AND OTHERS

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat, 21st day of Rabi-ul Aakhir. (Friday, 26th of November 2021). *_THE GUIDANCE OF QUR'AN, SUNNAH AND OTHERS_*. BismilLah.  From Saheeh Muslim and other authentic sources of hadith, we've studied how the Prophet instructed his companions to handle affairs of this blessed ummah. In one of these instructions is a very important narration which all scholars agree upon to be authentic as follows; The Prophet sent Mu’adh ibn Jabal may ALLAH be pleased with him to Yemen in order to call the people to Islam and teach them the practices of the religion. There are a number of lessons we can learn from the instructions the Prophet gave to him. Ibn Abbas reported: When the Messenger of ALLAH, peace and blessings be upon him, sent Mu’adh to Yemen, he said to him: "Verily, you are coming to a people among the people of the Book, so call them to testify there is none worthy of worship but ALLAH and I am the Messenger of ALLAH.

Deepthinking 68,69 and 70

 Deepthinking 68 Assalamu alaikum warhamatullah wabarakatuhu,  Been able to render assistance or help of any sort to others is an honour. The fact that it was decreed to be in a position to help someone shouldn't make us feel too special with regards to our status.  Verily, we are just a means through which they decree of Allah azza wa jaal comes to pass..  If someone feeds through you..  Thank Allah azza wa jaal for it always..  For favouring you and choosing you as a means for that person's meal...  For my beloved brothers and sisters in Islam..  Refusing to help others when we have the means won't stop the decree of Allah from coming to pass..   If you don't do it, honourably..  Allah will bring someone else who will..   Surah Aal-e-Imran, Verse 47: "..... when He has decreed a matter, He only says to it, Be, and it is..." ---------------------------------- So, whether you do it or not, Allah's decree is sure to come to...

[Qur'an 39:36] A doctor at the Mayo Clinic delivered a paper to the American Association of Physicians and Surgeons studying work in industrial institutions, in which he said that he studied 176 cases involving businessmen, all of whom were around the age of forty-four, and he found out that more than one-third of them were suffering from one of the three diseases, all of which were the result of stress, namely heart problems, stomach ulcers and high blood pressure. All of these before any of them had reached the age of forty-five! Is a man to be considered successful if that is at the price of a stomach ulcer or heart problem? What can it benefit a sick man if he gains the whole world but loses his health? Even if a man owns the whole world, he can only sleep on one bed, and he cannot eat more...
