 *About Khadeejah* [[----- Part 5-of-7 -----]] --------------------------------- بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم When Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) reported his first revelation, Nana Khadija became the first person to convert to Islam and was always supportive of her husband’s prophetic mission. She also invested much of the money she had accumulated from her trading endeavours in the mission. Her wealth allowed her husband the leisure to meditate - providing the ransom for Muslim slaves and feeding the Muslim community. *Lessons:* It's an act of worship wives helping their husband in anyway (except in ways of disobeying Allah - (swt) Abu Sa’id (r.a.) narrated that ‘Zainab the wife of Ibn Mas’ud came along and said to the Prophet “O Messenger of Allah (PBUH) You have commanded us today to give Sadaqah (charity). I have some jewellery of mine and I wanted to give it as Sadaqah, but Ibn Mas’ud claims that he and his children are the most entitled to my Sadaqah. (Deserve it more than anyone else.)’

 The riba and why islam forbade it.  Alhamdulillah, Riba means increase.  Allah says in Quran,  Aal-e-Imran 3:130 O you who have believed, do not consume usury, doubled and multiplied, but fear Allāh that you may be successful. Allah says,  Al-Baqarah 2:275. Those who consume interest[1] cannot stand [on the Day of Resurrection] except as one stands who is being beaten by Satan into insanity. That is because they say, "Trade is [just] like interest." But Allāh has permitted trade and has forbidden interest. So whoever has received an admonition from his Lord and desists may have what is past, and his affair rests with Allāh. But whoever returns [to dealing in interest or usury] - those are the companions of the Fire; they will abide eternally therein. Allah says,  Al-Baqarah 2:276 Allāh destroys interest and gives increase for charities. And Allāh does not like every sinning disbeliever. Anyone who does not give up riba is like fighting against Allah and his rasool Allah says

 The baytul ma'mur and what is it.  Alhamdulillah,  Allah says in Quran,  At-Tur 52:4 وَٱلْبَيْتِ ٱلْمَعْمُورِ  And [by] the frequented House[1] As reported in Hadith,  Narrated Malik bin Sasaa; In the long hadith,  Where it says,  Then I was shown Al-Bait-al-Ma'mur (i.e. Allah's House). I asked Gabriel about it and he said, This is Al Bait-ul-Ma'mur where 70,000 angels performprayers daily and when they leave they never return to it (but always a fresh batch comes into it daily).'  Sahih al-Bukhari 3207. This house each day is a place where angels meet and worship and the next day, a new batch of angels descend and worship there.  As reported again,  Then I was taken up to the Oft-Frequented House (Al-Bait al-Ma'mur) and I asked Jibra'il about it, and he said: 'This is Al-Bait al-Ma'mur inwhich seventy thousand angels pray everyday, and when they leave it they never come back.' Then I was taken up to Sidrah Al-Muntaha (the Lote-Tree of the Utmos

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm Arba'a, 17th day of Swafar, 1446AH (Wednesday, 21st August 2024). *_APPRECIATE THE LITTLE YOU HAVE IF YOU WANT MORE FROM ALLAH_*. Bismillah. Our Life as Muslims is a gift from ALLAH (Azza Wa Jal, The Mighty and the Majestic). We can only polish it with obedience to ALLAH or corrupt it with disobedience. Today, before you say an unkind word, think of someone who can't speak, then say Alhamdulillah. Before you complain about the taste of your food to your wife, etc, think of someone who has nothing to eat, then say Alhamdulillah. Before you complain about your husband or wife, think of someone who's crying out to ALLAH for a companion, then say Alhamdulillah. Before you complain about life, think of someone who died younger than you, healthier than you, wealthier than you, etc, then say Alhamdulillah. Before you complain about your children, think of someone who desires children but they're barren. And when you are tired and complain about yo

 *About Khadeejah* [[----- Part 4-of-7 -----]] --------------------------------- بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم One of Nana Khadija’s servants, Maysarah, had accompanied Muhammad on his journey and relayed to Nana Khadija that during their return, Muhammad had stopped to rest under a tree that: "none but a prophet ever sat beneath”. He also claimed to have seen two angels standing near Muhammad as he slept, protecting him from the sun. This indicated that Muhammad was the prophet of the people who was already expected. Knowing this, Nana Khadija considered proposing marriage to her agent. The couple was married monogamously for twenty-five years. *Lessons:* It's permissible for a woman to propose to a man It is permissible for a woman to propose marriage to a man but it is not always necessarily advised considering the ways some men are treating their wives today. Yes. This is the person who proposed marriage to woman and treating her badly, what about if she's the one who propose

 The hadith to reflect.  Narrated Abu Musa: I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) many times say: When a servant of Allah is accustomed to do a good work, then becomes ill or goes on journey, what was accustomed to do when he was well and staying at home will be recorded for him. Sunan Abi Dawud 3091. So if a person is sick and used to go to fajr prayer, then he became ill and cannot go, he will be recorded as if he has prayed with the congregation. This is the mercy Allah has bestowed upon a person. In another hadith, Abdullah ibn Umar r.a said, It is narrated by Abdullah bin Amr that Prophet (ﷺ) said, "When a person falls ill then the reward of those deeds is also recorded for him which he used to perform when he was healthy. Al-Adab Al-Mufrad 500. May Allah guides and protects us and show us the right path and make us die as Muslims. Aamiin

 The dignity of making istighfar.  Alhamdulillah, Istighfar is part of the character of a believer.  Allah says,  Adh-Dhariyat 51:17 They used to sleep but little of the night,[1] Adh-Dhariyat 51:18 And in the hours before dawn they would ask forgiveness, Allah says when Nuh AS said to his people,  Nuh 71:10 فَقُلْتُ ٱسْتَغْفِرُوا۟ رَبَّكُمْ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ غَفَّارًا And said, 'Ask forgiveness of your Lord. Indeed, He is ever a Perpetual Forgiver. The messenger of Allah salla Allahu alayhi wasalam used to seek forgiveness of Allah for seventy times a day and sometimes hundred times a day As reported in hadith,  Narrated Abu Huraira: I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying." By Allah! I ask for forgiveness from Allah and turn to Him in repentance more than seventy times a day."" Sahih al-Bukhari 6307. Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: I heard Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) saying: "By Allah, I seek Allah's forgiveness and repent to Him more than
