Family Managers* [[-----------4️⃣----------]]

 *Family Managers* [[-----------4️⃣----------]] ------------------------------ *"Remaining Silent when your Husband is Angry"* بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم A man meets many people while at work and he comes across many problems. Once he returns home from work, he is tired and upon confronting the smallest unpleasant incident at home, sometimes becomes angry and may sometimes transfer his frustrative mood by insulting his family members. Yes. Especially if he comes home with no money in his pockets 😀. This is common to all men. Yes.. Men easily get angry when they are broke pocket-wise. It's good to remember that, islamically, a man doesn't suppose to insult an outsider not to talk of his family members. But as humans, a man may sometimes shift from right to wrong. Now, A wise wife would remain silent towards her husband's ranting and insults. The man would then calm down and would regret his actions.. If he sees that there is no any negative reaction to his anger, he w...

CAN A MUSLIM FALL INTO KUFUR AND BECOME A KAAFIR?

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawmul Ahad. 4th day of Dhul-Qa'adah, 1445AH (Sunday 12th May 2024). *_CAN A MUSLIM FALL INTO KUFUR AND BECOME A KAAFIR_*? BismilLah.  Let's continue from our Reminder yesterday. The next form of Major kufur is; To have doubt in ALLAH  This is by having doubt in ALLAH or anything that has been established by HIM to be true like, the messengers, the Quran, or the Day of Judgment. ALLAH says regarding the two people who HE blessed; one was a disbeliever with gardens of fruits and the other a poor believer without many resources. The one blessed by ALLAH doubted that there would be a Day of Judgment and the other asked him, “Do you disbelieve in the One Who created you out of dust?” He was shocked and immediately stated He believed in ALLAH and would never associate any partner with HIM. The man who had been blessed entered his garden and stated that he did not think his wealth would ever perish or that the Day of Judgment would ever come. He contin...

CAN A MUSLIM FALL INTO KUFUR AND BECOME A KAAFIR?

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm As-Sabt. 3rd day of Dhul-Qa'adah, 1445AH (Saturday 11th May 2024). *_CAN A MUSLIM FALL INTO KUFUR AND BECOME A KAAFIR? BismilLah.  This is a serious and dangerous issue so let's find out from the Quran and monitor our actions so that we don't die as non Muslims without knowing. Remember that sheitan main agenda is to deviate us from our belief into disbelief. kaafir literally means someone who covers. But it is commonly understood to mean disbeliever. A disbeliever is called a kaafir because he covers the truth in his heart with rejection. In the Quran, ALLAH refers to farmers as kuffar because they cover the seeds with soil so that they grow. ALLAH says in Quran 57:20; كَمَثَلِ غَيْثٍ أَعْجَبَ الْكُفَّارَ نَبَاتُهُ ثُمَّ يَهِيجُ فَتَرَاهُ مُصْفَرًّا ثُمَّ يَكُونُ حُطَامًا Like the example of a rain whose [resulting] plant growth pleases the tillers; then it dries and you see it turned yellow; then it becomes [scattered] debris. The word kaafi...

FRIDAY KHUTBAH

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawmul Jumuat. 2nd day of Dhul-Qa'adah, 1445AH (Friday 10th May 2024). *_FRIDAY KHUTBAH_*. BismilLah.  Alhamdulillah for granting us another blessed day of the week. I hope we will all prepare well for Jumuat salaat today, and please remember to recite Suuratul Kahf and also send salutations to our beloved Messenger of ALLAH Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam abundantly.  As Muslims, let's strive to surround ourselves with good practising Muslims  who are always advising us to be conscious of ALLAH. They are our only True Friends in this Life and in the Hereafter. Not everybody is out there to judge you; there are some who want the best for you and want to help you get into Al-Jannah, value them. Don't blame them to be Judgemental. The one to tell you your faults is your true friend. Indeed, a friend who doesn't care about your Aakhirāh (hereafter) is not really your friend.  Sometimes the hardest person for you to correct is yourself. There is...

Family Managers* [[----------3️⃣---------]]

 *Family Managers* [[----------3️⃣---------]] ------------------------------ *Channeling Complaints and Grievances:* بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم There is no anyone who does not have problems and grievances with regard to daily life. In fact , everyone likes to have a sympathetic person with whom he can confide and who will listen to his problems. But the point to remember is that - *"there is a time and place for everything"*. One should realize the proper time and occasion to complain. Some inconsiderate and selfish women do not realize that their husbands are very tired and nervous after a long day's work.. Instead of waiting an hour or two for him to regain his spirits, they start attacking him with a barrage of complaints. Yes. Some women will not even say - *"Welcome my husband before they start to bombard him with negative unpleasant and stories"*. For instance the wife may say: 👇 "You have left me with these damned kids and rushed off.. My mom called and...

Family Managers* [[----------2️⃣---------]]

 *Family Managers* [[----------2️⃣---------]] ------------------------------ بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم "A woman asked the Prophet (PBUH): 'What is the duty of a woman with regard to her husband?' The Prophet (PBUH) stated: 'She must obey him and must not violate his orders with regard to what is not sinful'." 📚 Hadith Now, Every institution, factory, and organization needs a responsible controller.. In any sociological unit and organization, cooperation between the staff is important.. However, running the affairs of such a unit needs a person who can coordinate the duties. Undoubtedly, There must be a deep understanding, and cooperation among the members of a family, but there must also be a person who can act as COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF with regard to the family matters. Yes. Needless to say, if a family does not enjoy a person who can organize others, it would suffer from disorder and chaos😃. Thus, either the husband must act as the overall Boss and the wife follo...

🌷*Reciting a Surah in the third and fourth rak’ah*🌷

 🌷*Reciting a Surah in the third and fourth rak’ah*🌷 by Asma bint Shameem  First of all, reciting a Surah or part of a Surah in the Salaah after al-Faatihah is NOT FARDH.  Rather, it is SUNNAH and something recommended.  And that goes for ALL the rak’aat of the ALL the prayers. It doesn’t matter if you’re praying a fardh Salaah or Sunnah.  You don’t *‘have’* to read a Surah after al-Faatihah.  🍃 Abu Hurayrah radhi Allaahu anhu said:  “What we heard the Prophet Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam say, we tell you, and what he did not tell us about we cannot tell you. Whoever recites Umm al-Kitaab (i.e., Surah al-Faatihah) has done enough, and whoever does more than that, that is better.” (al-Bukhaari, Muslim) 🍃 Imaam an-Nawawi said:  “The phrase, “Whoever recites Umm al-Kitaab (i.e., Surah al-Faatihah) has done enough, and whoever does more than that, that is better” indicates that reciting  *AL-FAATIHAH* is OBLIGATORY, and that nothing else wil...

🌷Make peace between people.....it’s one of the noblest of deeds🌷

 🌷Make peace between people.....it’s one of the noblest of deeds🌷 by Asma bint Shameem We decided to meet for lunch.  We were all so excited.  After all, we were getting together after a long time.  As we sat at our table, we started talking, catching up on all that had happened in the past few years, when I noticed a bit of tension developing between two of my friends.  Then, all of a sudden, right before my very eyes, before I knew it, it blew up into a horrible argument! Angry words flew between the two of them and before I could do anything to stop it, both my friends stormed out of the place, vowing to never talk to each other ever again! "Subhaan Allaah! ....what just happened here?" I said to myself, trying to digest the horrible incidence that just took place.  Two of my dear friends fighting with each other!   Many of us face something similar several times in our lives......our families and loved ones arguing over something so trivial, our ...

DO NOT ALLOW YOUR SINS OR MISTAKES TO DERAIL YOUR EFFORTS TO PLEASE ALLAH

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Al-Khamis. 1st day of Dhul-Qa'adah, 1445AH (Thursday 9th May 2024). *_DO NOT ALLOW YOUR SINS OR MISTAKES TO DERAIL YOUR EFFORTS TO PLEASE ALLAH_*. BismilLah.  As Muslims, we must not focus on our sins or mistakes but rather focus on building a good relationship with ALLAH by acting to please ALLAH as our priority. Let's go through this true story to learn a lesson from it.  Someone said and I quote: When I started using pen in my primary school, and I made a mistake, I would try hard to erase it before submitting to my teacher. Sometimes, I use chalk to clean my mistake but it later re-appeared. So I began to use saliva, it worked, but only to leave holes in my books. My teachers then used to beat me for being outrageously dirty. But all I tried to do was to cover my error. One day, a kind hearted teacher who loved me so much called me aside and he said, " Anytime you make a mistake, just cross it and move on" . He said further " Tr...

NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Arba'a. 29th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Wednesday 8th May 2024). *_NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH_*. BismilLah.  Even though feelings of Panic, stress/worries etc are part of life, they must not reduce our acts of worship or trust in ALLAH. The more a man turns to ALLAH and focuses on HIM, the more he will feel a sense of peace and comfort, to an extent that no one knows except ALLAH. Hence those who know ALLAH, are close to HIM and fear HIM are the happiest of people, to such an extent that one of them said, in a well-known expression: “If the kings and the sons of kings knew what joy we have, they would fight us for it with the sword.” This is also what is expressed in the Qur’an, as ALLAH says: “Whoever works righteousness, whether male or female, while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to him ALLAH will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and ALLAH will ...

GIVE CHARITY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Ath-thalaatha. 28th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Tuesday 7th May 2024). *_GIVE CHARITY FOR YOUR OWN GOOD_*. Aameen.  Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: The Prophet (SallallahuAlaihiWasallam) said, "Charity is obligatory everyday on every joint of a human being.* If one helps a person in matters concerning his riding animal by helping him to ride on it or by lifting his luggage on to it, all these will be regarded as charity. A good word, and every step one takes to offer the compulsory congregational prayer is regarded as charity; and guiding somebody on the road is regarded as charity." [Sahih Al-Bukhari, 4/2891]. To show gratitude to ALLAH for keeping your body safe and sound, you should give in charity or do charitable deeds. Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: ALLAH'S Messenger (sallallahuAlaihiWasallam) said, "The strong is not the one who overcomes the people by his strength, but the strong is the one w...

Fake Sweet Dreams

 *Fake Sweet Dreams* ------------------------------. بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم Shaytan is the most dangerous of of our enemies. He is always vigilant and never ceases attempts to mislead us from the straight path.. If the shaytan knows that you ALWAYS strive hard to wake up for Tahajjud by setting your phone alarm, he (shaytan) will not give up. Yes. Sometimes, the shaytan can trick you by pushing you to reject the phone alarm, then, make you have a fake sweet dreams😃. Infact, the fake dreams may take the form of seeing yourself praying or reciting Quran😃. All these are tricks to making sure that you missed out in getting Angels include your name in the attendance register for people who wake up for Tahajjud.

LOVING ONE ANOTHER AND SPREADING PEACE

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm al-ithnayn. 27th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Monday 6th May 2024). *_LOVING ONE ANOTHER AND SPREADING PEACE_*. BismilLah.  Abu Hurairah (RA) reported: The Messenger of ALLAH (peace be upon him) said, "By HIM in Whose Hand is my life! You will not enter Jannah until you believe, and you will not believe until you love one another. Shall I inform you of something which, if you do, you will love one another? Promote greetings amongst yourselves." (Riyad as-Saalihin, Book 6, Hadith 4). This is one of my favourite Hadiths.  It's not just saying salaams with your mouth but throughly loving and forgiving each other purely to please ALLAH.  Paradise is not just through our deeds or actions; it is from ALLAH'S Mercy. And it is HIS Mercy that through loving one another and spreading Salaam that you can attain Jannah. Even in Jannah, when the people meet each other, there is just peace. Why are you not talking to your brother or sister, etc, to t...

SERIOUS WARNING

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawmul Ahad. 26th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Sunday 5th May 2024). *_SERIOUS WARNING_*. BismilLah. One of the beauties of Islam is that it teaches everything that will improve and reform mankind, including how to remove impurities by cleaning oneself properly after urinating or defecating. But some people are very careless about this matter, and allow their clothes and bodies to become contaminated, thus causing their prayers to be invalidated. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) told us that this is one of the causes for the punishment in the grave. Ibn 'Abbaas said: "The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) passed by one of the gardens of Madeenah, and heard the sound of two men being punished in their graves. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "They are being punished, but they are not being punished for any major sin. One of them used not to clean himself properly after urinatin...
