﷽ *Surah Al-Baqara, Verse 135:* وَقَالُوا كُونُوا هُودًا أَوْ نَصَارَىٰ تَهْتَدُوا قُلْ بَلْ مِلَّةَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَنِيفًا وَمَا كَانَ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ And they say, "Be Jews or Christians, then you will be guided." Say (to them, O Muhammad Peace be upon him), "Nay, (We follow) only the religion of Ibrahim (Abraham), Hanifa [Islamic Monotheism, i.e. to worship none but Allāh (Alone)], and he was not of Al-Mushrikun (those who worshipped others along with Allāh - see V. 2:105)." *COMMENTARY* Hanīf: inclined to right opinion, orthodox (in the literal meaning of the Greek words), firm in faith, sound and well-balanced, true. Perhaps the last word, True, sums up most of the other shades. The Jews, though taught Unity, went after false gods, and the Christians invented the Trinity or borrowed it from Paganism. We go back to the pure, hanīf doctrine of Abraham, to live and die in faith in the One True God.  ﷽ *Surah Al-Baqara, Verse 136:* قُولُوا آمَنَّ

DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Ithnayn, 27th day of Swafar (Saturday 26th October, 2019). *_MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD IN THE  QURAN AND SUNNAH_*. BismilLaahir Rahmaanir Raheem. Brotherhood in Islam is a comprehensive concept that is based upon good character with others, treating others the way we want to be treated, and uniting together upon common values. It has three levels of degree: religion, family, and humanity. Each of these levels has a set of rights and duties that a Muslim must uphold with others. The strongest level of brotherhood is the sense of community, friendship, and common purpose in Islam for the sake of ALLAH. At this level, the believers work together towards fulfilling the goals of the religion and without living out its divine values. Allah says: إِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُونَ إِخْوَةٌ فَأَصْلِحُوا بَيْنَ أَخَوَيْكُمْ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُرْحَمُونَ The believers are but brothers, so make reconciliation between your brothers and fear ALLAH that you may r

﷽ *DU'Ā : THE MOST POWERFUL WEAPON OF THE BELIEVER (85)* اَللّٰھُمَّ إِنِّيْ أَسْأَلُکَ إِیْمَانًا یُّبَاشِرُ قَلْبِيْ، وَیَقِیْنًا صَادِقًا حَتّٰی أَعْلَمَ أَنَّـہٗ لَا یُصِیْبُنِيْ إِلاَّ مَاکَتَبْتَ لِيْ، وَرِضًی مِّنَ الْمَعِیْشَۃِ بِمَا قَسَمْتَ لِيْ۔ Allāhumma innī as’aluka īmānan yubāshiru qalibi, wa yaqīnan sādiqan hattā a’lama annhū lā yusibūnī illā mā katabta lī, wa ridam minal-ma’īshati bimā qasamata lī. O Allah, I beg You for the faith that settles deep in my heart, a true conviction so that I understand that nothing can afflict me beyond what You have decreed for me, and satisfaction with provision which You have appointed for me. *Thought For The Day* Worry will not add one second to your life, nor will it change the outcome. Trust that even tribulations are part of Allah’s divine plan.

﷽ *The Happiest Woman in the World* *(A Treasure Chest of Reminders)* *Part 9 of 5* *KNOWLEDGE OF THE MOST MERCIFUL TAKES AWAY GRIEF* "It is sufficient honour for women that the mother of Muhammad (Blessings and Peace be upon him) was a woman." Allāh, the Most Generous, Most Kind, gives to His slave more than he can hope for before he even asks. He appreciates small deeds and makes them grow, and He forgives and erases a great deal of mistakes. Surah Al-Rahman, Verse 29: يَسْأَلُهُ مَن فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ هُوَ فِي شَأْنٍ Whosoever is in the heavens and on earth begs of Him (its needs from Him). Every day He has a matter to bring forth (such as giving honour to some, disgrace to some, life to some, death to some, etc.)! He is not distracted and He listen to all; He does not get confused by being asked for so many things; He does not tire when people persist in calling upon Him. Rather, He loves them to persist in a calling upon Him

A Treaties On Prophet Muhammad's Biography.* *Part 63* *THE 'AQABAH FIRST PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE* As stated previously six men from Yathrib embraced Islam during the season of hajj, the eleventh year of Prophethood and promised the Prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon him) to convey his message to their tribe. In the next season of hajj, the twelfth year of Prophethood (621 A.D.) twelve men came from Yathrib and met the Prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon him). Among them were the five men who met him in the past year and seven other men: Mu'ādh Ibnul-Hārith Ibn 'Afrāa (of the clan of An-Najjār, Al-Khazrajj tribe), Dhakwān Ibn 'Abdul-Qays (of the clan of Zuraiq, Al-Khazrajj tribe), Ubādah Ibnus-Sāmit (of the clan of Ghanm, Al-Khazrajj tribe), Yazīd Ibn Tha'alaba (the ally of the clan of Ghanm, Al-Khazrajj tribe), Al-'Abbas Ibn Ubādah Ibn Nadlah (of the clan of Sālim, Al-Khazrajj tribe), Al-Hayatham Ibn At-T

 ﷽ *Surah Al-Baqara, Verse 133:* أَمْ كُنتُمْ شُهَدَاءَ إِذْ حَضَرَ يَعْقُوبَ الْمَوْتُ إِذْ قَالَ لِبَنِيهِ مَا تَعْبُدُونَ مِن بَعْدِي قَالُوا نَعْبُدُ إِلَٰهَكَ وَإِلَٰهَ آبَائِكَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْمَاعِيلَ وَإِسْحَاقَ إِلَٰهًا وَاحِدًا وَنَحْنُ لَهُ مُسْلِمُونَ Or were you witnesses when death approached Ya'qub (Jacob)? When he said unto his sons, "What will you worship after me?" They said, "We shall worship your Ilah (God - Allah), the Ilah (God) of your fathers, Ibrahim (Abraham), Isma'il (Ishmael), Ishaque (Isaac), One Ilah (God), and to Him we submit (in Islam)." *COMMENTARY* The whole of the Children of Israel are called to witness one of their slogans, that they worshipped "the God of their fathers." The idea in their minds got narrowed down to that of a tribal God. But they are reminded that their ancestors had the principle of Islam in them, _the worship of Allāh, the One True and Universal God. The death-bed scene is descr
