HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm al-ithnayn, 2nd day of Jumaadal Uulaa, 1446AH (Monday, 4th November 2024). *_HELPING OTHERS WITH INTENTION FOR ALLAH'S HELP IN RETURN_*. BismilLah.  When we help our brothers and sisters in Islam, in reality, we are helping ourselves. The Messenger of ALLAH (S.A.W) said: He who relieves the hardship of a believer in this world, ALLAH will relieve his hardship on the Day of Judgment. He who makes easy what is difficult, ALLAH will make it easy for him in the world and the Hereafter. He who conceals the faults of a Muslim, ALLAH will conceal his faults in the world and the Hereafter, for ALLAH helps the servant as long as he helps his brother. Source: Ṣaḥīḥ "Muslim 2699. AlhamdulilLah.  With this I hope with immediate effect we will all strive to help each other in any possible way such as making dua for each other, supporting our relatives and those in need in our communities, encouraging others into good deeds without mocking anyone's erro

Story to reflect.  Allah has guided us not our will.  There lived a young girl who had a neighbor The neighbor was not a practicing Muslim and she used to drink alcohol and do bad things and never could live a day without listening to music.  Also with a big earpiece shaking her head to the lyrics.  This girl was praying for her and wish she had seen the truth.  One day, the neighbor was in her room with her ear piece as she was listening it, a large crowd were shouting outside but she could not hear and as she removed the earpiece, she was amazed that her room were on fire and everything in the inside was burnt.  She was frightened and threw the earpiece away as she burst into tears. She cried as her wealth she saved were burnt.  Since then she never listened to music and turned to alcohol. As she drank, she was walking and then she felt down on the road. As she slept she dreamt, it was judgement day and she was pulled to hellfire as she was crying. A man came to her and said this is

Millennium Star⭐* [[------ Part Ten ------]]

 *Millennium Star⭐* [[------ Part Ten ------]] -------------------------------- بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم Zainab bint Khuzaymah died during the caliphate of 'Umar Faruq at the age of fifty-three. When she realized she was about to meet her Maker, she told the people around her that she already prepared 2 shrouds, one for herself. If 'Umar Faruq sent, one is for her, one should be used and the other given away in charity. She was such a modest lady that a curtain was drawn in front of her dead body, even though it was wrapped in a shroud. Allahu Akbar!!! When Zaynab (ra) passed away, 'A'ishah (ra) recalled an occasion when the Prophet (pbuh), said that among the Mother of the Believers, she would meet him first who had the longest arms. Zaynab was short compared to the others and naturally her arms were also shorter. All the ladies took this statement literally and started measuring their arms. It was only upon the death of Zaynab that they realized what this meant. It real

Love for the sake of Allah.

 Love for the sake of Allah.  Alhamdulillah, Loving a person for the sake of Allah is an act of worship.  As reported from the hadith,  It is reported on the authority of Anas that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: There are three qualities for which any one who is characterised by them will relish the savour of faith: that he loves man and he does not love him but for Allah's sake alone; heis to whom Allah and His Messenger are dearer than all else; he who prefers to be thrown into fire than to return to unbelief after Allah has rescued him out of it. Sahih Muslim 43 b.  Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: Verily. Allah would say on the Day of Resurrection: Where are those who have mutual love for My Glory's sake Today I shall shelter them in My shadow when there is no other shadow but the shadow of Mine. Sahih Muslim 2566. Narrated AbuDharr: The Prophet (ﷺ) said: The best of the actions is to love for the sake of Allah and to hate for the sake ofAllah. Su

GOOD DEEDS THAT WILL LEAD US TO ALLAH'S PLEASURE

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawmul ahad, 1st day of JumaadalUulaa, 1446AH (Sunday, 3rd November 2024). *_GOOD DEEDS THAT WILL LEAD US TO ALLAH'S PLEASURE_*. BismilLahir Rahmanir Raheem.  ALLAH'S Pleasure is the ultimate goal of our worship of ALLAH. It is the Pleasure of ALLAH that will lead us to HIS Mercy and eventually to HIS Paradise. And speaking about ALLAH'S Pleasure, there is an effortless way to gain it. There are many ways to please ALLAH but let's consider this simple one by our beloved Prophet Muhammed sallallahu alaihi wasallam who said: "Verily, ALLAH is pleased with a servant who praises HIM when he eats or praises HIM when he drinks." (Sahih Muslim 2734). It is as simple as thanking HIM every time you eat or drink. SubhanaAllah, there is a big reward to earn even in something so casual like eating and drinking. And what is greater than ALLAH'S Pleasure? Nothing, SubhanaAllah. Let's avoid complaints and appreciate the little we have then pr

Millennium Star⭐* [[----- Part Nine -----]]

 *Millennium Star⭐* [[----- Part Nine -----]] -------------------------------- بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم One of the wives of the Prophet (PBUH) - Zainab bint Khuzaymah (r.a) believed strongly in asking Allah for counsel through prayer and supplication, before taking any action. All her life's major decisions were made in this way. In fact even when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) proposed she turned to prayer for guidance. Now, Anytime a Muslim is making a decision, he or she should seek Allah’s guidance and wisdom. Allah alone knows what is best for us, and there may be good in what we perceive as bad, and bad in what we perceive as good. Yes. Especially if you are unsure about a decision you have to make. There is a specific prayer for guidance called (Salat-l-Istikhara) that you can do to ask for Allah’s help in making your decision *How do we perform Salat-l-Istikhara* Narrated Jabir bin ‘Abdullah: The Prophet (pbuh) used to teach us the way of doing istikhara (istik

DO NOT WAIT TO REGRET AFTER DEATH

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm As-sabt, 30th day of Rabeeu ath-thaani, 1446AH (Saturday, 2nd November 2024). *_DO NOT WAIT TO REGRET AFTER DEATH_*. BismilLahir Rahmanir Raheem.  ALLAH says in Qur'an 78:40. إِنَّآ أَنذَرۡنَٰكُمۡ عَذَابًا قَرِيبًا يَوۡمَ يَنظُرُ ٱلۡمَرۡءُ مَا قَدَّمَتۡ يَدَاهُ وَيَقُولُ ٱلۡكَافِرُ يَٰلَيۡتَنِى كُنتُ تُرَٰبًۢا  Indeed, WE (ALLAH) have warned you of an impending punishment on the Day when a man will observe what his hands have put forth and the disbeliever will say, "Oh, I wish that I were dust!" The Day of Judgement is mentioned here to emphasize the fact that its occurrence has become close because everything that is coming will certainly come to pass. Also remember that when you die your judgement begins till the funal judgement day. يَوْمَ يَنظُرُ الْمَرْءُ مَا قَدَّمَتْ يَدَاهُ (the Day when man will see that which his hands have sent forth,) meaning all of his deeds will be presented to him, the good and bad, and the old and new. Then A
