 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat. 27th day of Jumaadal Aakhir 1444AH (Friday 20th January. 2023). *_NOURISHMENT OF OUR SPIRITUAL BEING, THE SOUL_* BismilLah. We all know that ALLAH created the body from the dust of the earth So, its nourishment that's food and drink comes from the earth provided by ALLAH, the Creator.  Our SOUL comes from ALLAH as such the nourishment of the soul which is more important comes from ALLAH directly and will go back to ALLAH when we die without the body as the body goes back to the earth till judgement day when ALLAH will create a new body for each soul.  The nourishment of the soul without any doubt is the Holy Quran, words of ALLAH, spirituality, our connection with ALLAH and Ibadaat (acts of worship). ALLAH says in the Qur'an to the nearest meaning that Verily, in the remembrance of ALLAH, do hearts find rest or peace (QUR'AN 13:28).  Regardless of our busy schedules to try and feed the body, let's not forget the most impor...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Khamis. 26th day of Jumaadal Aakhir 1444AH (Thursday 19th January. 2023). *_YOU WANT JANNATUL FIRDAUS? THEN INVEST MORE FOR IT_*. BismilLah.  All of us will prefer Jannatul Firdaus nothing less right? Why are we content with our little good deeds? We must strive more to please ALLAH for HIS Jannatul Firdaus. Don't say I don't mind getting any level of Jannat else you will miss seeing the Messenger of ALLAH and his companions trust me.  Our beloved Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) told us that ALLAH loves high ambitions: “ Indeed, ALLAH is Beautiful and HE loves beauty. And HE loves high ambitions and dislikes lowly ambitions.” (Sahih Jami’ 1743).  So if you want ALLAH to love you, start aiming high! Aim for the greatest good deeds and the greatest achievements that you know will earn you the love of ALLAH and HIS pleasure. Steadfastness in SADAQAH,  FASTING, NIGHT PRAYERS, ZIKIR ETC. *_May ALLAH keeps guiding us all and ...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arba'a. 25th day of Jumaadal Aakhir 1444AH (Wednesday 18th January. 2023). *_WHY WE REPEAT AR-RAHMAAN AND AR-RAHEEM IN OUR WORSHIP_*. BismilLah.  While we should be mindful of ALL of ALLAH’s names and attributes, we call ALLAH by HIS names Ar-Rahman and Ar-Raheem multiple times a day, and those are amongst the names ALLAH chose for us to repeat in every single prayer. What do these names of ALLAH mean? While both are often translated as the Most-Merciful, Ar-Rahman refers to ALLAH as the Owner of immense MERCY for those who choose to worship HIM, while Ar-Raheem refers to ALLAH as the One who bestows HIS MERCY on HIS entire creation even to idol worshipers. Throughout the day ALLAH reminds us of HIS immeasurable MERCY that HE grants us. If HE is telling us HE is so MERCIFUL, why wouldn’t we think of HIM in that way as well? We Muslims should have good thoughts and expectations of ALLAH so that when we err, we don’t fall into despair, and when...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Ath-thalaatha. 24th day of Jumaadal Aakhir 1444AH (Tuesday 17th January. 2023). *_DO YOU TRULY TRUST IN ALLAH?_*. BismilLah.  Our beloved Messenger of ALLAH Sallallahu alaihi wasallam told us in an authentic hadith that ALLAH says, “I am to my slave as he thinks of ME.” [Bukhari, Book 97, Hadith 130] This means that if we think positively of ALLAH, in sha ALLAH HE will treat us in such a way. SubhanAllah, this is such a powerful concept! If we think well of ALLAH and remember HIM as the Most-Merciful and Loving, we will be shown the mercy and love of ALLAH, in sha ALLAH. And if we truly believe HE is the accepter of du’as and repentance, HE will accept our du’as and repentance in sha ALLAH. On the other hand, if despite knowing that ALLAH can do anything, someone doubts the power of ALLAH when he needs something, then it is also logical that ALLAH might not grant him that thing because of his negative thoughts. It’s important to know that we ...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum al-ithnayn. 23rd day of Jumaadal Aakhir 1444AH (Monday 16th January. 2023). *_HAVE YOU LOST HOPE IN ALLAH_*. BismilLah.  There is something VERY important that you need to remember always which is the fact that, Shaytan (the accursed devil) has 2 major techniques: 1- To make the sin seem appealing, approachable and easy to do. 2- Once the sin is committed, he makes asking for forgiveness and repentance seem impossible/fake/useless so that the person feels worthless and gives up. So don’t give him that. Be conscious of his techniques, immune and empower yourself. ALLAH says: “[… and despair not of relief from ALLAH. Indeed, no one despairs of relief from ALLAH except the disbelieving people” (Qur’an 12: 87). Giving up and falling in despair is equal to disbelief because if you do that, aren’t you aware that ALLAH'S Name is The Continuously Merciful, The Forgiver, The Accepter of repentance..? These are HIS names and these are HIS attributes an...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Ahad. 22nd day of Jumaadal Aakhir 1444AH (Sunday 15th January. 2023). *_MAKING DUA BUT THROUGH PATIENCE_*. BismilLah.  As Muslims, we must remain patient whenever we make dua seeking any help from ALLAH. ALLAH has mentioned in several places in the Quran that within even difficulties you can find ease or solution just as we must dig deep to locate gold, diamonds etc. Let's explore the Quran to study what ALLAH says regarding being patient.  ALLAH says to the nearest meanings: O you who have believed, seek help through patience and prayer. Indeed, ALLAH is with the patient believers. Surat Al-Baqarah 2:153. Yes, if you remain patient and conscious of ALLAH and the enemy come upon you [attacking] in rage, your Lord will reinforce you with five thousand angels having marks [of distinction]. Suurat Al-Imran 3:125. Said Moses to his people, “Seek help through ALLAH and be patient. Indeed, the earth belongs to ALLAH. He causes to inherit it ...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt. 21st day of Jumaadal Aakhir 1444AH (Saturday 14th January. 2023). *_ENTERING AN EMPTY or VACANT HOME_*. *BismilLaah* Abdullah ibn Umar (may ALLAH be pleased with him) said: When someone enters a vacant home, he should say, “BismilLah, As-Salaamu ‘Alaynaa wa ‘Alaa ‘Ibaad-Allah-is-Saliheen” (“Peace be upon us and on the righteous slaves of ALLAH.”). Collected by Bukhari in Adabul Mufrad 1055]. Sheikh Al-Albani (may ALLAH rest him in Jannah) said, “This narration establishes an Islamic regulation for entering a vacant house or your house when no one is inside. This practice coincides with the order of spreading salaams found in some authentic hadeeth. Furthermore, this agrees with the verse, “When you enter your houses greet one another with As-Salaamu Alaikum…[ An-Nur 61]. Therefore based on this verse and narration from Ibn Umar (may ALLAH be pleased with him) Ibn Hajr held it was recommended to say, “Peace be upon us and on the righteous ...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat. 20th day of Jumaadal Aakhir 1444AH (Friday 13th January. 2023). *_ENCOURAGING GOOD and FORBIDDEN Evil is a COLLECTIVE OBLIGATIONS _*. *_BismilLah_* Muslims at the time of the Prophet (peace be upon him), his Sahabah (Companions of the Prophet) and the Salaf (righteous predecessors) respected this obligation and carried it out in the best manner. Certainly, we the later generations desperately need this obligation to be fulfilled more than the first ones due to the prevalence of ignorance, lack of knowledge and people’s negligence of this mandatory matter. Currently, the matter has become more serious and dangerous since evil, corruption and propagators of falsehood prevail to an unbelievable extent, against the scarcity of callers to goodness in most countries and in most family homes. Therefore, ALLAH (Glorified be HE) ordered and urged Muslims to enjoin good and forbid evil, giving it precedence over eemaan in the Ayah (Qur’anic verse)...

*LOVE FOR THE DUNIYA* ➖➖➖ *The Punishment of Fire* ➖➖➖ Allah ﷻ says  *الَّذِينَ اتَّخَذُوا دِينَهُمْ لَهْوًا وَلَعِبًا* Those who took their religion as amusement and play, [7:51] They took the Deen for a joke and thought they could waste their time with the Dunya in their lives!  _ Even When Allah ﷻ commanded, *وَ لَا تَتَّخِذُوا آيَاتُ اللهِ هُزُواً* And don't take the Ayaat of Allah as a joke. [2:231] _ And the third quality of these people?  *وَغَرَّتْهُمُ الْحَيَاةُ الدُّنْيَا* And the life of this world deceived them! [7:51] They were deluded by the Dunya, deluded by its allure and beauty, and they were pushed away from Allah ﷻ!  _ Even after Allah ﷻ warned *وَ مَا الحَيَاةُ الدُّنيَا اِلَّا مَتَاعُ الغُرُور* And what is the life of this world except a temporary delusion. [3:185] _ They still took their Dunya for the utmost priority!  _ Their punishment?  *فَالْيَوْمَ نَنسَـهُمْ كَمَا نَسُواْ لِقَآءَ يَوْمِهِمْ هَـذَا* So this Day We shall forget them...
