So sudden was the Muslim attack that Persian army was unable to take any firm stand. There was confusion and panic in the ranks of the Persian army, and the Persians were slaughtered in thousands. The disaster that met the Persians at Muzayyah was more or less of the same order as they had suffered at Walaja. Helped by the ...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Ahad. 25th day of Ramadhan, 1444AH (Sunday, 16th April 2023). *_LET'S KEEP STRIVING AND BE STEADFAST TILL END OF RAMADHAN_*. Bismillah. ALLAH says in Qur'an 29:6 وَمَن جَاهَدَ فَإِنَّمَا يُجَاهِدُ لِنَفْسِهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَغَنِيٌّ عَنِ الْعَالَمِينَ And whosoever strives, he strives only for himself. Verily, ALLAH stands not in need of any of the creatures. Then ALLAH tells us that even though HE has no need from HIS creatures, HE is kind and generous to us. HE will still give to those who believe and do righteous deeds the best of rewards, which is that HE will expiate for them their bad deeds, and will reward them according to the best deeds that they did. HE will accept the fewest good deeds and in return for one good deed will give anything between ten rewards and seven hundred, but for every bad deed, He will give only one evil merit, or even that HE may overlook and forgive. ALLAHU AKBAR.  This is like the Ayah, إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يَظ...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt. 24th day of Ramadhan, 1444AH (Saturday, 15th April 2023). *_PURPOSE OF ZAKAATUL FITIR_*. Bismillah. The main purpose of Zakah al-Fitr is to provide those who fasted with the means of making up for their errors during the month of fasting. Zakah al-Fitr also provides the poor with a means with which they can celebrate the festival of breaking the fast (`Eid al-Fitr) along with the rest of the Muslims. Ibn Abbas reported, "The Prophet (peace be upon him) made Zakah al-Fitr compulsory so that those who fasted may be purified of their idle deeds and shameful talk (committed during Ramadan) and so that the poor may be fed. Whoever gives it before Salah will have it accepted as Zakah, while he who gives it after the Salah has given Sadaqah." [Collected by Imam Abu Dawud - Eng. transl. vol. 2, p. 421, no. 1605]. Hence, the goal of Sadaqah al-Fitr is the spiritual development of the Believers. By making us give up some of our wealth, the be...

Under the circumstances, Sheerzad decided to continue resistance. The moat stood between the Persians and the Muslims, and the problem before Khalid was to cross the moat.

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat. 23rd day of Ramadhan, 1444AH (Friday, 14th April 2023). PREPARE TO GIVE YOUR ZAKAATUL FITIR. BismilLah.  Zakaat al-Fitr is often referred to as Sadaqah al-Fitr. The word Fitr means the same as Iftar, breaking a fast, and it comes from the same root word as Futur, which means breakfast. Thus, Islamically, Zakaat al-Fitr is the name given to charity, which is distributed at the end of the fast of Ramadan. This is not the yearly Zakaat payment.  Sadaqah al-Fitr is a duty that is Wajib on every Muslim, whether male or female, minor or adult, as long as he/she has the means to do so. The proof that this form of charity is compulsory can be found in the Sunnah whereby Ibn `Umar reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) made Zakah al-Fitr compulsory on every slave, freeman, male, female, young and old among the Muslims; one Saa of dried dates or one Saa of barley. Collected by Bukhari - Arabic/English, vol. 2, p. 339, no. 579. The...

THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-khamis. 22nd day of Ramadhan, 1444AH (Thursday, 13th April 2023). *_LET'S MAXIMISE OUR REWARDS THROUGH OUR GOOD DEEDS_*. BismilLah.  Ramadhan is running away like it never started. A few days ago, we were talking about when Ramadhan starts, but today, sadly, we are counting the days left for Ramadhan to finish. May ALLAH count us among those who are successful in this blessed month. ALLAH says; O you who believe! Do your duty to ALLAH and fear HIM. And seek the Waseela (means of approach to HIM), and strive hard in HIS Cause (as much as you can), so that you may be successful. (Quran, 5:35). We learn from this verse that we should use our good deeds in seeking Nearness to ALLAH or in our dua. This means we should strive to do more good deeds, and in our dua, we should use those good deeds as Tawassul seeking its acceptance from ALLAH. The Ramadhan Sadaqah you give to the poor is the best good deed to mention during your dua seeking ALLAH to forg...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arba'a. 21st day of Ramadhan, 1444AH (Wednesday 12th April 2023). *_LET'S STRIVE HARD SEEKING LAYLATUL QADAR_*. BismilLah.  Many people make the mistake and only strive hard in their prayers, du’a, tawbah and charity on the odd nights of the last ten days of Ramadhan. While it’s true that there is a bigger chance of Laylat al-Qadr being in the odd nights, it is fully possible for it to be in one of the even nights!  Ibn ‘Umar RA told us that the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam said: “Seek Laylat al-Qadr in the last ten days of Ramadhan.” [Muslim, 2/823]. Laylatul Qadr is so great that if you stand in prayer/Zikir and to be blessed with it, all of your sins will be forgiven! Our sisters in their monthly cycle should also wake up and strive to seek laylatul Qadar through zikir. Dont go to the masjid. Just dress decently and sit in your room to recite your zikir.   *_May ALLAH keeps guiding us all and grant us Laylatul Qadar by...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Ath-thalaatha. 20th day of Ramadhan, 1444AH (Tuesday 11th April 2023). *_MAY ALLAH GRANT US LAYLATUL QADAR_*. AAMEEN. BismilLah.  AlhamdulilLah for guiding us into the last 10 days of Ramadhan. I'm certain no one needs to be informed of the importance of these days ahead of us. Don’t focus on only certain nights searching for laylatul qadar. Focus on all the last nights till the end of Ramadhan so that you dont miss out.  Lets make dua our priority, especially those the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam thought us to focus seeking laylatul Qadar such as;  اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ عَفُوٌّ تُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنِّي Allaahumma Innaka Afuwwon Tuhibbul Affwa FAafu Annii  Oh ALLAH! You are most forgiving, YOU love to forgive, so please forgive me. Another important dua to focus on is  رَبَّنَا هَبْ لَنَا مِنْ أَزْوَاجِنَا وَذُرِّيَّاتِنَا قُرَّةَ أَعْيُنٍ وَاجْعَلْنَا لِلْمُتَّقِينَ إِمَامًا RABBANA HABB LANAA MIN AZWAAJINAA W...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum al-ithnayn. 19th day of Ramadhan, 1444AH (Monday 10th April 2023). *_LAST 10 DAYS OF GOLDEN REWARDS START TONIGHT_*. BismilLah.  The last ten days of Ramadhan are very precious indeed: ALLAH'S Messenger used to exert himself in devotion during the last ten nights to a greater extent than at any other time." (Muslim). Please don't ask me about the odd days in these last days in trying to use our wisdom to acquire laylatul Qadar. You may miss it if you do so, just strive to get some time in acts of worship throughout the night of the last days as no one can be certain which days or nights are the odd days this month.  Our mother Aishah (may ALLAH be pleased with her) reported that during the last ten days of Ramadhan; the Messenger of ALLAH would wake his wives up during the night and then remain apart from them (that is, being busy in acts of worship, seeking  Laylatul Qadr. (Bukhari). Here are some ways that we can all make the best...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Ahad. 18th day of Ramadhan, 1444AH (Sunday 9th April 2023). *_KULLU NAFSIN....?_*. BismilLah.  All of us will die sooner or later, but the serious question remains as to HOW? In a state where ALLAH is pleased with us or where HE is displeased? ALLAH says: “ Until, when death comes to one of them, he says: “My Lord! Send me back”. (Quran, 23:99). Why does he want to be sent back to this world? Is it to live longer? Is it to earn more money? Definitely NO. The answer is: “ So that I may act righteously in that (world) which I have left behind…” But is it possible to come back after death? “… Never! It is simply a word he utters, and behind them is a barrier till the day when they will be resurrected.” (Quran, 23:100) Alhamdulillah! You and I are still alive, and we have the opportunity to do good deeds and act righteously. Let’s not delay that lest we meet the same fate stated in those verses. One lives only once, and there is no way back to ...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt. 17th day of Ramadhan, 1444AH (Saturday 9th April 2023). *_ISLAMIC SOLUTION TO FORGETFULNESS_*. *Bismillah*. Islam is a complete way of life, and it has all the solutions to all the creation of ALLAH. It is human nature to be forgetful, as the Arab poet said: “He is only called man (insaan) because of his forgetfulness (nasiyaan), and it is only called the heart (al-qalb) because it changes so rapidly (yataqallib).” Some of the things that may help to combat forgetfulness are: Keeping away from sin, because the bad effects of sin result in a bad memory and the inability to retain knowledge. The darkness of sin can not co-exist with the light of knowledge. The knowledge of ALLAAH is light, and the light of ALLAAH is not given to the sinner.” We are talking about beneficial knowledge here please so don't ask me why some  of the kuffar are knowledgeable. If your knowledge does not aid you to earn the halaal way and live in peace worshipp...
