 FAJR REMINDER: BEAUTY OF THE PEOPLE OF JANNAH By: Umm Affān Dhū al-Qa'dah 5, 1447 (23-April-2026) One of the beautiful realities of Jannah (Paradise) is that its people will not enter it in the weak and imperfect state in which we are in this worldly life. Rather, they will enter in the most complete, beautiful, and perfect form. The people of Jannah will be taller and bigger than we are today. They will be recreated in the form of our father, Ādam (‘Alayhi Salām), who was given a magnificent stature. Abū Hurayrah (Raḍiyallāhu ‘Anhu) narrated: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Allāh created Ādam, making him 60 cubits tall... Any person who will enter Paradise will resemble Ādam (in appearance and figure). People have been decreasing in stature since Ādam's creation.” [Ṣaḥiḥ al-Bukhārī 3326] This shows that the people of Paradise will return to a noble and perfected form. Regarding the statement of the Prophet (ﷺ), “People have been decreasing in stature since Ādam's creation,” al-Ḥ...

 🌷 *The Mercy of the Most-Merciful* 🌷 by Asma bint Shameem  The Mercy of the Most Merciful is boundless, unsurmountable, and BEYOND comprehension.  And His Love for us is unimaginably profound.  🌷Ibn Masud radhi Allaahu anhu said: "A person may hope for some matter of trade or position of authority, until he is close to attaining it.  Thereupon Allaah looks at him and says to His angels: "Divert it from him, for if he attains it I shall enter him into the Hellfire."  Thus, Allaah diverts it from him and the slave of Allaah remains pessimistic, saying "So and so preceded me to it, So and so outwitted me," when in fact, it is a *FAVOR* from Allaah." (Ibn Rajab in Jami al-Ulum wal Hikam) 🌷And Ibn al Qayyim said: "The divine decree related to the believer is *ALWAYS* a bounty, _even_ if it is in the form of *withholding* (that which is desired), and it is a *blessing*, even if it appears to be a *trial*.  And an *affliction* that has befallen him is i...

 FAJR REMINDER: SIMPLE ACTS WITH GREAT REWARDS By: Umm Affān Dhū al-Qa'dah 4, 1447 (22-April-2026) I have earlier discussed some of the deeds of the people of Jannah, and this morning, I would love to add a few more. These are simple acts, yet they carry immense rewards and can become means for entering Paradise by the Mercy of Allāh. ‘Abdullāh Ibn ‘Amr reported: The Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) said, “Verily, in Paradise, are rooms whose outside can be seen from inside and whose inside can be seen from outside.” Abū Mūsā said, “Who are they for, O Messenger of Allāh?” The Prophet said, “For those who speak mildly, feed the hungry, and spend the night standing for the Sake of Allāh while people sleep.” [Musnad Aḥmad 6615] This noble narration shows us that gentle speech, feeding others, and standing in prayer at night are among the qualities that lead to those special chambers in Jannah. A believer should never underestimate the power of kind words. Speaking softly and with wisdom can s...

 Muslims Till Death: 🍀بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم🍀 ﷺ ♥‌‌‌🍃ﷺ♥‌‌‌🍃ﷺ   *` Tuesday 21 April 2026/3 Dhul'Qa'ada 1447 AH ` * *HOW TO ACHIEVE ZUHD - ASCETICISM* Rasulullah ﷺ said: “Whoever is concerned about the Hereafter, ALLAH will place richness in his heart, bring his affairs together, and the world will come to him although he is reluctant for it. Whoever is concerned about the world, ALLAH will place poverty between his eyes, disorder his affairs, and he will get nothing of the world but what is decreed for him.” (At Tirmidhi) Ayoob ‎عليه السلام was given great wealth, yet remained a devoted Prophet. Dawood and Sulaiman ‎عليهما السلام both were given kingdoms and power, the likes of which has never been given to anyone, yet they were humble and ascetic. _Having wealth is not the problem. The problem arises when we aspire and pursue wealth, fame and material possessions. When we compare our lives to others and allow envy to enter our hearts, the love of dunya enters it and we no ...

After the marriage Abu Bakr Siddique رضي الله عنه met with 'Umar Farooq رضي الله عنه and told him the truth was that the Prophet ﷺ had mentioned to him that he planned to marry Hafsah رضي الله عنها . That was the reason he had remained silent, as it would not have been proper to betray his confidence. If matters were different he would have been only too happy to acc...

 *Helpful Examples* ------------------ بسم الله الرحمان الرجيم Think about this: If Adam and Eve never came to Earth, we would all be in Paradise right now. Every one of us. We would have been born there. But here is the truth. Paradise has different levels. Some homes there are small. Some are huge, like palaces. Now, Imagine if Allah (swt) put us all in Paradise today. He then says, "You get this very small house. But you over there, you get that giant, beautiful mansion." We would all ask, "Why? That's not fair! Why is their home better?" But, Allah (swt) is the Most Fair. He does not want us to ask that question on the Day of Judgment. So, He sent us here. To Earth. This life is our working time. This is our chance to build our own place in Paradise. The harder we work for Allah here, the bigger and better our home there will be. No complaints. Because we built it with our own actions here. So, how do we build the biggest, most beautiful home? Abdullah ibn A...

 FAJR REMINDER: THE EXPIATION! By: Umm Affān Dhū al-Qa'dah 3, 1447 (21-April-2026) Do you know how to live a good life and die upon goodness? I mean the deeds of expiation that help a person meet Allāh free from sins, as pure as the day they were born. Some people may imagine that this is achieved by repeating Astaghfirullāh a million times, praying hundreds of Rak‘āt without even facing the Qiblah, or locking themselves in a dark room for a year while engaging in invented forms of Dhikr. No—this is not the way. Rather, the path is what the Prophet (ﷺ) taught. Ibn Abbās (Raḍiyallāhu ‘Anhuma) said Allāh’s Messenger (ﷺ) said: “My Lord came to me tonight in the most beautiful form (I think he said, in a dream). He (Allāh) said, ‘O Muḥammad, do you know what the chiefs on high (the Angels) disputed about?’ I said, ‘No.’ He put His Hand between my shoulder-blades and I could feel its coolness on my chest (or just beneath my throat), then I knew everything that is in the heavens and on e...

BismilLah.  Let's continue with our studies of Suurah At-Tariq (Qur’an 86).  Meaning & Commentary Verses 1–3. وَالسَّمَاءِ وَالطَّارِقِ وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الطَّارِقُ النَّجْمُ الثَّاقِبُ By the sky and the night comer (At-Tāriq). And what will make you know what the night comer is? It is the piercing star. Commentary: At-Tāriq refers to something that comes at night, often interpreted as a bright star. “Piercing” means it shines intensely, breaking through darkness. ALLAH Azzawajal swears by this creation to draw attention to something important. 👉 The message: Just as the star penetrates darkness, truth pierces through falsehood. Allahu Akbar.  Verse 4 إِن كُلُّ نَفْسٍ لَّمَّا عَلَيْهَا حَافِظٌ There is no soul except that it has a protector (guardian) over it. Every person is being watched and recorded by Angels...

 Muslims Till Death: 🍀بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم🍀 ﷺ ♥‌‌‌🍃ﷺ♥‌‌‌🍃 *THE SWEET END* Hadhrat Luqmaan (A.S) was in the service of a wealthy man. He had such great love for Allah Ta’ala and contact with Him, that it created within him high moral character and exemplary habits. This was a clear sign of his nobility and nearness to Allah Ta’ala. The details of which are described in Surah Luqmaan in the Quran. The nobility of Luqmaan (A.S.) character had a great effect on his master, to such an extent that the master considered him as a great friend and a beloved companion. Although he was the master, yet in fact the master became like a slave to his employee. *“It is the miracle of love that the king became a slave of his beloved.”* It then became the practice of the master that whenever he had something special to eat, he would first feed Hadhrat Luqmaan (A.S.) of it and after Luqmaan (A.S.) had filled himself, he would then eat the leftovers. Hadhrat Luqmaan (A.S.) would consider the lov...

 *Stolen Blessings* [-Final Episode-] ----------------- بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم The Quran and Sunnah consistently warn that certain actions act as a canker, eating away at Allah's blessings in our lives until what remains is an empty shell—a life that may look prosperous on the outside but is barren and troubled on the inside. Today, a husband capriciously favoring one wife over another, a father showering love on some children while neglecting others, or a stepmother maltreating a child entrusted to her care. These are not mere social sickness; they are direct violations of the trust (Amanah) placed by Allah (swt). This reminds me, Umar was a man blessed abundantly. He had built a successful business from the ground up, and was married to two women. Aisha, his first wife, was the mother of his two eldest sons. She was gentle and devout. His second wife, Fatima, was younger, and it was her son who had captured Umar's heart entirely. The injustice began subtly. Fatima’s son recei...

BismilLah.  Let's start with the Context & Background of the suurah which was revealed in Makkan at a time when the Quraysh were denying: The resurrection (life after death), The truth of revelation, The accountability before ALLAH Azzawajal.

Warning that every soul is being watched and recorded. The tone is strong, direct, and reflective, aiming to awaken the conscience. To be continued tomorrow with the meanings and commentary of each verse in Shaa ALLAH. *_ May ALLAH Azzawajal keep guiding and protecting us from any satanic influences_*. Aameen.

 FAJR REMINDER: WHO IS A LOSER? By: Umm Affān Dhū al-Qa'dah 2, 1447 (20-April-2026) Who is truly a loser? Without doubt, the real loser is the one who loses Jannah (Paradise). The greatest loss a person can ever suffer is to be deprived of Paradise forever, and the only sin that causes this complete and eternal loss—without ever entering Jannah—is Shirk. This is a matter every Muslim must understand clearly: whoever dies upon Shirk has no share in Jannah. Some Muslims may be punished in Hell because of their other sins, but they will eventually be taken out because they died upon Eemān. However, this is not the case for the Mushrikūn (polytheists), for they will remain in Hell forever. Allāh says: “Verily, whoever commits Shirk with Allāh, then Allāh has forbidden Paradise for him, and the Fire will be his abode. And for the Ẓālimūn (polytheists and wrongdoers) there are no helpers.” [Sūrah Al-Mā’idah (5): 72] So, what exactly is Shirk? Shirk means associating partners with Allāh i...

Let's continue with our studies with some Practical Lessons for Daily Life. 1. Glorify ALLAH Azzawajal regularly. Make SubḥānAllāh part of your daily routine, especially morning and evening. 2. Trust ALLAH’S plan. Everything is created with purpose, what you go through is part of divine wisdom. 3. Stay connected to the Qur’an Just as ALLAH Azzawajal preserved it for the Prophet ﷺ, we should strive to read, memorize, and act upon it. 4. Give reminders gently. Encourage others towards good, but understand guidance is in ALLAH’S hands. 5. Focus on purification: Work on your heart, remove pride, jealousy, and sins. 6. Prioritize Salah and Dhikr Success is tied directly to remembering ALLAH Azzawajal and praying consistently. 7. Don’t be deceived by dunya Wealth, status, and comfort are temporary, keep your focus on t...

 *Stolen Blessings* [[----Part 7----]] ------------------ بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم In our relentless pursuit of happiness, success, and peace, we often look outward—striving for better jobs, more wealth, and ideal circumstances. Yet, we sometimes overlook a fundamental pillar upon which all these blessings rest: the preservation of family ties Some people's lives might feel devoid of barakah (Allah's blessing). Yes. They pray, fast, and give charity, yet their efforts feel fruitless, wealth feels insufficient, and homes lack peace. This accelerated punishment can manifest as constant anxiety, financial hardship, a general feeling of discontent etc — a life from which Allah's mercy has been distanced. On this, Abu Ayyub al-Ansari (r.a.) reported: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “It is not lawful for a man to forsake his Muslim brother for more than three nights, ....” 📚(Sahih al-Bukhari & Muslim) While this refers to Muslims in general, the ruling is even more severe for blood rela...
