DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Ahad, 6th day of RAJAB (Sunday 1st of March, 2020). SHOWING GRATITUDE AND THANKING ALLAH. BismilLaah. ALLAH Glorified and Exalted be HE has bestowed upon us abundant blessings, so HE deserves to be thanked for HIS many Favors. Blessings are commensurate with our gratitude. If you thank ALLAH for HIS Favors, ALLAH will increase and bless you. But if you are ungrateful and always complaining, favors will disappear and immediate punishments may follow in this life before the Hereafter. Blessings are of various types. They include having good health, hearing, seeing, intellect, and organs. The greatest favor is guiding us through Islam, holding fast to, caring for, and comprehending it. ALLAH (Exalted be HE) states: “This day, I have perfected your religion for you, completed My Favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islâm as your way of life.” [Surah Al-Ma’idah, 5: 3]. May ALLAH keep guiding our eemaan till Jannat becomes our abode. Aameen.
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt, 5th day of RAJAB (Saturday 29th of February, 2020). LETS BE MINDFUL OF THESE BAD HABITS IN LIFE. BismilLah. Let's remind  ourselves that ALLAH does not love stubborn rejectors of faith, committing sins, and showing ingratitude. ALLAH says: فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ الْكَافِرِينَ Verily, ALLAH does not love the unbelievers. Qur'an 3:32. Why? Bcs their disbelief in ALLAH and HIS Messenger only grant them the Hellfire. And ALLAH says: وَاللَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ كُلَّ كَفَّارٍ أَثِيمٍ ALLAH does not love any ungrateful sinner. Quran 2:276. ALLAH does not love arrogance, pride, boasting to one another, extravagance, and exultation in wrongdoing. ALLAH says: إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ مَن كَانَ مُخْتَالًا فَخُورًا Verily, ALLAH does not love those who are proud and boastful. Surah An-Nisa 4:36. These few are more than enough to aid us to fear these bad acts in our lives. We ask ALLAH to make us among those who are loved by HIM and who are...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat, 4th day of RAJAB (Friday 28th of February, 2020). SOME Non Muslim asked Why ALLAH uses plural "WE" sometimes instead of singular "I". This need some explanation so forgive me if is a bit long. Let's learn and share to others as we continue from the reminder 2 days ago. BismilLah. The question asked is indeed a very interesting one and one deserving of deep thought. First lets get one thing clear. And that is the message of Tauheed -- One God(ALLAH). That is the primary message of the Holy Quran and the same message was brought by every Prophet of ALLAH who ever came to this earth, starting from Aadam upto the Last Messenger Mohamed (sallalLaahu Alaihi Wasallam). ALLAH says in Chapter 112, Surah Ikhlas Verse 1-4: Say to mankind: HE is ALLAH, the ONE and ONLY. ALLAH is Independent of all, and all are dependent on HIM. Neither has HE any offspring, nor is HE the offspring of anyone; and NONE is equal to HIM in rank or i...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Khamis, 3rd day of RAJAB (Thursday 27th of February, 2020). THE SECRECY OF PRIVATE MATTERS (Guarding Secrets). Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem. ALLAH, the Exalted, says: "And fulfill (every) covenant. Verily! The covenant, will be questioned about.'' (17:34). Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri (May ALLAH be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of ALLAH (PBUH) said, "One of The most evil of the people to ALLAH on the Day of Resurrection will be the man who consorts with his wife and then publicizes her secret.''[Saheeh Muslim]. Islam treats conjugal union as a sacred and secret act, both in social and moral terms. Indeed, the sanctity of conjugal rights contributes to the consolidation of moral norms and social cohesion. Yet, what passes between wife and husband on the consummation night is usually taken in a light vein in our societies. In the morning, both of them relate their sexual experience to their friends respectively. This is mor...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arbaà, 2nd day of RAJAB (Wednesday 26th of February, 2020). SOME NON MUSLIMS DO ASKED, WHY ALLAH USES PLURAL "WE" SOMETIMES INSTEAD OF SINGULAR "I". Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem. I like reminding on this topic frequently because many weak Muslims get confused if confronted by this question by non Muslims in an attempt to put some doubt in our faith or to try and justify the trinity which is shirk. One important point I want to remind all Muslims is that only FEW non Muslims do respect us and our Deen or ways of life. Majority actually hate us, mock us and will do all they can to deviate you from the only way to Paradise (Islam). ALLAH and HIS Messenger said that not me. Read quran 3:100 going. ALLAH has stated in HIS Book (The holy Quran) that the kuffaar bear enmity towards us and they would not spare any effort to cause us harm, and they wish us ill, and they will not be pleased until we follow their way. ALLAAH says: “O you wh...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Ath-thalaatha, 1st day of RAJAB (Tuesday 25th of February, 2020). THE REALITY OF DEATH AHEAD OF US. Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem. The Messenger of ALLAH (peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him) said: "Remember much, that which cuts off pleasure: Death, since no-one remembers it in times of difficulty, except that things are made easy for him, nor mentions it at times of ease, except that the affairs become constricted for him." Saheehul-Jaami’us Sagheer, no 1222. Many humans live the life of this world, seeking the best that it has to offer, while ignoring what lies ahead of us upon death. The adornment of this world are but temptations to distract us from the true purpose of our life and that we will indeed be responsible for all we do in this life. Let's note that Death is a harsh and fearful reality faced by everyone who lives. No one has the power to avoid it, nor does anyone around the dying person have the ability to prevent...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Ithnayn,  30th day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Monday 24th of February, 2020). LETS CONTINUE WITH OUR TOPIC ON DAYS, MONTHS AND ISLAMIC EVENTS AND DATES. Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem Ashura falls on the 10th of Muharram, the first month of the Islamic calendar. Ashura commemorates the exodus of Musah alaihi salaam from Egypt, and is usually observed by completing an optional fast as practiced by the Prophet Muhammad Peace be upon him. Ramadan (Islamic month of Fasting) is the 9th month of the Islamic calendar, during which we fast daily from dawn to sunset as part of an effort towards self-purification and moral excellence. We Muslims believe that Ramadan is the month in which the first verses of Islam’s holy book, the Qur’an, were revealed by ALLAH through the Angel Gabriel to the Prophet Muhammad Peace be upon him. The Hajj, or annual pilgrimage to Mecca, consists of several rituals which symbolize the essential concepts of the Islamic faith, suc...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Ahad,  29th day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Sunday 23rd of February, 2020). LETS CONTINUE WITH OUR TOPIC ON DAYS, MONTHS AND ISLAMIC EVENTS AND DATES. Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem The names of Islamic months are: 1) Muharram, 2) Safar, 3) Rabi al-Awwal. 4) Rabi al-Thani. 5) Jumada al-Awwal. 6) Jumada al-Thani, 7) Rajab, 8) Sha'abaan. 9) Ramadaan 10) Shawwaal. 11) Dhul-Qa'adah and 12) Dhul-Hijjah. The Islamic calendar (known as the Hijri calendar) is a purely lunar calendar. It contains 12 months that are based on the motion of the moon. Because 12 synodic months are only 12 x 29.53= 354.36 days, the Islamic calendar is consistently shorter than a solar year, and therefore shifts approximately 11 days every year with respect to the Gregorian calendar. Eid ul-Fitr (Festival of Breaking the Fast). This holiday commemorates the completion of Ramadan and lasts for three days during which Muslims celebrate with special prayers, sweets, presents for ...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt,  28th day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Saturday 22nd of February, 2020). PERFORMING HAJJ IS OBLIGATORY AND VERY BENEFICIAL FOR THOSE WHO CAN AFFORD. BismilLah. Hajj (the Pilgrimage to Makkah) is the fifth pillar of Islam. The Prophet (sallallahu' alayhi wa sallam meaning: may the peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him) said: “Islam has been built upon five pillars: declaring that there is none worthy of worship except ALLAH and that Muhammad is the messenger of ALLAH; the establishment of salaah (five compulsory daily prayers; the payment of zakaah (obligatory charity); the Hajj (pilgrimage to the House of ALLAH, if one is able); and sawm of Ramadan (fasting in the month of Ramadan).” (Bukhari 1/ 7). This final pillar of Islam is obligatory, at least once in a lifetime, upon all sane Muslims, who reach the age of puberty, and are physically and financially able to make the journey. ALLAH the Almighty tells us in His Book: “... And Hajj (pilg...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat,  27th day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Friday 21st of February, 2020). Islamic Days, months and events to note. Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem. Recognizing these days, months and important events dates not only brings awareness of the diversity within the Muslim population but also instills pride in Muslims especially students who must adopt them anyway. Some Muslim students may be too embarrassed or shy to acknowledge these days, months and holiday events in Islam, which are not yet a part of the dominant worldly culture bcs we fail to adopt them. Typical example is our own date of birth in our Islamic calendar.  Majority don't even know our actual date of birth in our own Islamic calendar subhaanAllah!!! What a shame Yaa ALLAH. Please take it as an assignment to check your date of birth Islamically converting from Gregorian calendar into Islamic calendar taking into consideration your DAY of birth to get the accurate date. Anyway let's mov...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Khamis 26th day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Thursday 20th of February, 2020) IS PRAYING TAHIYYATUL MASJID AN OBLIGATION or A RECOMMENDATION? TAHIYYATUL MASJID means to greet the masjid by offering two Sunnah rakaats whenever we enter into any masjid or Mosque which is popularly term as greeting the masjid. Scholars disagree whether praying two rakaats of prayer when we enter the masjid is an obligation (wajib) or a recommendation (mustahab). The primary evidence under discussion is the following narration: Abu Qatadah reported: The Messenger of ALLAH, peace and blessings be upon him, said: إِذَا دَخَلَ أَحَدُكُمْ الْمَسْجِدَ فَلْيَرْكَعْ رَكْعَتَيْنِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَجْلِسَ When one of you enters the mosque, then let him pray two rakaats before he sits down. Sahih Bukhari 433, Grade: Muttafaqun Alayhi. In another narration, the Prophet said: فَلَا يَجْلِسْ حَتَّى يَرْكَعَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ Let him not sit down until he prays two rakaats. Sahih Muslim 714...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arbaà 25th day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Wednesday 19th of February, 2020) THE ROPE OF ALLAH. BismilLaahir Rahmaanir Raheem. ALLAH says in the Holy Qur'an chapter 3 verse 103 going that; وَاعْتَصِمُواْ بِحَبْلِ اللّهِ جَمِيعًا وَلاَ تَفَرَّقُواْ وَاذْكُرُواْ نِعْمَتَ اللّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ إِذْ كُنتُمْ أَعْدَاء فَأَلَّفَ بَيْنَ قُلُوبِكُمْ فَأَصْبَحْتُم بِنِعْمَتِهِ إِخْوَانًا وَكُنتُمْ عَلَىَ شَفَا حُفْرَةٍ مِّنَ النَّارِ فَأَنقَذَكُم مِّنْهَا كَذَلِكَ يُبَيِّنُ اللّهُ لَكُمْ آيَاتِهِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَهْتَدُونَ. And hold fast, all of you together, to the Rope of ALLAH (i.e. this Qur'an), and be not divided among yourselves, and remember ALLAH'S Favour on you, for you were enemies one to another but HE joined your hearts together, so that, by HIS Grace, you became brethren (in Islamic Faith), and you were on the brink of a pit of Fire, and HE saved you from it. Thus ALLAH makes HIS Aayaat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.,)...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Ath-thalaatha 24th day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Tuesday 18th of February, 2020). MONITORING OUR INTENTIONS FOR ANYTHING WE DO. Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem. Our beloved Messenger of ALLAH peace be upon him said: ‘The deeds are considered by their intentions, and a person will get the reward according to his intentions.’ We usually make an intention before we perform good deeds such as fasting or giving sadaqah (charity). However, we often tend to forget to make an intention for the little everyday tasks we normally do. If we really want our hasanat (reward from good deeds) to soar during all the time, let's make a sincere intention for every little task we perform. For instance, if you’re cooking for your family, make the intention that the time you spend in the kitchen cooking in order to feed your family is to please ALLAH. Do not complain to them about something they've done bad to you referring to your sacrifice to wake up and cook, doing so tak...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Ithnayn 23rd day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Monday 17th of February, 2020). LET'S AVOID THE FOLLOWING SERIOUS CRIMES AGAINST OURSELVES. BismilLah. WE MUST AVOID THE FOLLOWING AS MUSLIMS. 1. ISRAAF (Extravagance) "But waste not by excess: for ALLAH loves not the wasters (Al-Musrifun (those who waste by extravagance))." [Surah Al An'am 6:141]. 2. ISTIKBAAR (Pride) "Verily HE loves not the arrogant (proud)." [Surah Al Nahl 16:23]. 3. MUKHTAL FAKHOOR (Arrogant boaster) "For ALLAH loves not any arrogant boaster." [Surah Luqman 31:18]. 4. UDWAAN (Transgression) "For ALLAH loves not transgressors." [Surah Al Ma'idah 5:87]. 5. DHULM (Evil, Wrongdoing) "But ALLAH loves not those who do wrong (Dhalimun (oppressors, polytheists and wrong doers)." [Surah Ali 'Imran 3:57]. 6. KHIYAANAH (Treachery) "For Allah loves not the treacherous." [Surah Al Anfal 8:58]. 7. MUFSIDEEN (Mischief...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Ahad 22nd day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Sunday 16th of February, 2020). OUR EXTREME NEED FOR GUIDANCE FROM ALLAH. Bismillaahir Rahmaanir Raheem. As Muslims, its extremely important to seek guidance in all we do especially when it comes to religious duties else we will end up falling into the traps of Sheitan due to our ignorance, pride etc. Sheikh Ibn al Qayyim may ALLAH be pleased with him said in his book "*_THE PATH TO GUIDANCE_*" that , Guidance (hidaayah) is: a) Elucidation or explanation (bayaan) and Indication (dalaalah) (to the path), then b) Success (tawfeeq) and Inspiration (ilhaarn) in following the path), and this comes after the guidance of elucidation and indication. There is no way to elucidation and indication except by means of the Messengers. So when elucidation, indication and acquaintance (of the path) has been obtained, there will occur, as a result of this the guidance of success (in following the path), the placing of ...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt 21st day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Saturday 15th of February, 2020). PURIFICATION OF OUR HEARTS. Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem. Our beloved Messenger of ALLAH (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) was asked: “Who are the best type of people?” He replied: “A person who is truthful in his speech and Makhmoom in his heart.” the companions asked: “We know what is truthful speech, but what is a Makhmoom heart?” He (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) responded: “It is a pure pious heart that does not have envy, evil or spite.” [Ibn Maajah]. May ALLAH have mercy on us and forgive our sins. May ALLAH aid us to forgive those who have wrong us and those we've wronged. Aameen.
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt 20th day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Friday 14th of February, 2020). A BLESSED DAY OF THE WEEK ALHAMDULILLAH. MAKE ALLAH YOUR PRIORITY AND KEEP CAMPAIGNING FOR ALLAAH. BismilLahir Rahmaanir Raheem. AlhamdulilLah for granting us this blessed day of the week. May ALLAH bless all past dayees of Islam such as the late brother Maalam Issah Osei of Ghana. May ALLAH forgive him and as we remember him today may ALLAH raise his rank to be among those nearer to our beloved Messenger of ALLAH MUHAMMAD sallallahu alaihi wasallam in Paradise. Aameen. May ALLAH bless all brothers and sisters who have devoted and still devoting their time towards the teachings of Islam to mankind such as my beloved brother Sheikh Ilyas Abdur Rahman of Ghana, all the trained daawah project group of Maalam Issah Osei, our late Sheikh Ahmed Deedat may Allah be pleased with him, Dr Zakir Naik, Mufty Menk, Sheikh Muhammad Awwal, Maalam Daawood alias Pamparewa (I love you Brother, keep te...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Khamis 19th day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Thursday 13th of February, 2020). MOST IMPORTANT QUALITY OF A MAN OR WOMAN AS AN IDEAL LIFE PARTNER. SECRETE FOR BROTHERS AND ESPECIALLY FOR SISTERS TO NOTE. BismilLahir Rahmaanir Raheem. Let's continue from the reminders of yesterday. When a wife becomes submissive before her husband in humility, the man will automatically bow his heart before her, and love her sincerely. I tell you that every true man does not need sex as a priority, but submissive nature type. It is submission that truly makes you a romantic wife. So be the African queen you want to be but when it comes to dealing with your husband, play the role of a humble maid. Don't forget that it is the spirit of humility that has caused many maids to hijack their mistresses' husbands. Be your man's queen and be his maid also. Aside all these, if any of the two has no Eemaan through knowledge of Islam, then it's like building a house ...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arbaà 18th day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Wednesday 12th of February, 2020).  MOST IMPORTANT QUALITY OF A MAN OR WOMAN AS AN IDEAL LIFE PARTNER. SECRETE FOR BROTHERS AND ESPECIALLY FOR SISTERS TO NOTE. BismilLahir Rahmaanir Raheem. Let's continue from the reminder yesterday. The secret to a successful marriage  is the fact  that husbands need SUBMISSION from the wife and and the most wives need is CARING, not necessarily sex. It is time for our young brothers/ladies to know that when a man/woman is ready to marry he/she will not look out for a woman/man who will satisfy his/her sex drive but a woman/man who will submit herself to him and care for her. Every woman has womanhood but not every woman has humility." So when you are a humble woman and caring man, you are an expensive jewelry. And a man/ women of integrity will fear to lose you. What does the Holy  Quran  say, "wife, submit to your husband." The reason is that a man's tru...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Ath-thalaatha 17th day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Tuesday 11th of February, 2020). MOST IMPORTANT QUALITY OF A MAN OR WOMAN AS AN IDEAL LIFE PARTNER. SECRETE FOR BROTHERS AND ESPECIALLY FOR SISTERS TO NOTE. BismilLahir Rahmaanir Raheem. Sunnah making (sexual intercourse) is an important element in marriage and until there is this sunnah between a husband and a wife, the marriage is not yet spiritually recognised. This shows how important sunnah making is in marriage. When you look at how agressive men are towards sunnah making you may think that what a man needs from a woman is the sexual. Of course, if he has not married you yet or he does not really intend to marry you what he will need from you is nothing above your body. But if he really intends to marry you or if you guys are already married, sunnah making is never the priority to be sincere - maybe let me say it better; "WHAT A MAN NEEDS MOST FROM A WOMAN AND VICE VERSA IS NOT SEXUAL." Ma...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Ithnayn 16th day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Monday 10th of February, 2020). HOW TO DEAL WITH OUR BAD RELATIVES ISLAMICALLY. BismilLah A man came to the Prophet (peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of ALLAH, I have relatives with whom I try to keep in touch, but they cut me off; I treat them well, but they treat me badly; I try to be kind to them, but they are cruel to me." He said: "If you are as you say, it is as if you are putting hot ashes in their mouths. You will continue to have support from ALLAH against them so long as you continue doing that." (Reported by Muslim, no. 2558). This Hadith and many similar ahadith is to encourage us to keep our kindness to our relatives purely for ALLAH sake regardless of how they treat us back because we are not doing to seek their rewards or appreciation but instead to seek ALLAH'S MERCY so why bother about what they do in return? In Islam we are encouraged to...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Ahad 15th day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Sunday 9th of February, 2020). SIGNS OF A SUCCESSFUL BELIEVER CONTINUES. Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem. Let's continue from the reminder yesterday. ALLAH  says from the 3rd verse of Quran 23 وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمۡ عَنِ ٱللَّغۡوِ مُعۡرِضُونَ Tafsir ibn kathir And those who turn away from Al-Laghw refers to falsehood, which includes Shirk and sin, and any words or deeds that are of no benefit. If you do these you cannot be part of a successful Muslim. وَٱلَّذِينَ هُمۡ لِلزَّكَوٰةِ فَٰعِلُونَ And those who pay the Zakah. Most commentators say that the meaning here is the Zakah that is paid on wealth, even though this Ayah was revealed in Makkah, and Zakah was ordained in Al-Madinah. The apparent meaning is that the Zakah that was instituted in Al-Madinah is the one based upon the Nusub and the specific amounts, apart from which it seems that the basic principle of Zakah was enjoined in Makkah. As ALLAH says in Su...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt 14th day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Saturday 8th of February, 2020). SIGNS OF A SUCCESSFUL BELIEVER. Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem. In Quran 23:1-10 ALLAH, Who is free from ANY Imperfection says: قَدْ أَفْلَحَ الْمُوْمِنُونَ Successful indeed are the believers, means, they have attained victory and are blessed, for they have succeeded. These are the believers who have the following characteristics: الَّذِينَ هُمْ فِي صَلَتِهِمْ خَاشِعُونَ Those who when comes to their Salah are Khashi`un. Ali bin Abi Talhah reported that Ibn Abbas said: خَاشِعُونَ  Khashi`un) means those with fear and with tranquility". Khushu` in prayer is only attained by the one who has emptied his heart totally, who does not pay attention to anything else besides it, and who prefers it above all else. At that point it becomes a delight and a joy for eyes. So in short, one of the most important pillar to be a successful Believer is to ensure you perfect your salaat thr...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul  Jumuat 13th day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Friday 7th of February, 2020). SOME OF WHAT THE MESSENGER OF ALLAH SAID CONCERNING GIVING SADAQAH (charity). Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem. The Prophet said: “Give sadaqah without delay, for it stands in the way of calamity.” By Imam Tirmidhi hadith number 1887. Hudhaifa and Abu Shaiba reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: Every act of goodness is sadaqa. Sahih Muslim, book 5 hadith no. 2197. Narrated by Suraqah ibn Malik: The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Shall I not guide you to the most excellent sadaqah? It is to provide for your daughter when she is sent back to you and has no one but you to provide for her." Imam Tirmidhi hadith no. 5002. Narrated 'Adi bin Hatim heard the Prophet saying: "Save yourself from Hell-fire even by giving half a date-fruit in charity for Allah sake." Sahih Bukhari book 24 hadith no. 498. All these hadith shows the importa...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Khamis 12th day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Thursday 6th of February, 2020). RULINGS ON BUYING AND SELLING DOGS. BismilLahir Rahmaanir Raheem. There are some issues or rulings in Islam which may not be logic to some people but only ALLAH knows what's logic or not. ALLAH made some things forbidden as a test to those who adhere to rules. Like we know, ALLAH made all fruits halaal for our grandfather Aadam and only made one fruit forbidden for him and his wife but sheitan deceived to disobey ALLAH. By our so called logic today and lack of fear for ALLAH, some can query why ALLAH prohibited that one fruit? Even human beings creates rules around us but we follow without question even if it doesn't make sense but we have the guts to ask WHY to ALLAH commands astaqfirulLah. Please note that the word WHY when it comes to Shariah rules is a satanic plot to deviate you from your eemaan. As a Muslim whenever you hear ALLAH and HIS messenger says something, yo...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arbaà 11th day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Wednesday 5th of February, 2020). DO NOT CURSE ANYONE ESPECIALLY CHILDREN. BismilLah. Our beloved Messenger of ALLAH, peace and blessings be upon him, said: وَلَعْنُ الْمُؤْمِنِ كَقَتْلِهِ وَمَنْ رَمَى مُؤْمِنًا بِكُفْرٍ فَهُوَ كَقَتْلِهِ Cursing a believer is like killing him and charging a believer with unbelief is like killing him. Source: Sahih Bukhari 5754. Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of ALLAH, peace and blessings be upon him, said: لَا يَنْبَغِي لِصِدِّيقٍ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَعَّانًا It is not befitting the truthful that they curse others. Source: Sahih Muslim 2597. Let's avoid cursing our kids if we want them to be successful in life. We must also avoid cursing other Muslims even if they do but rather seek guidance and forgiveness from ALLAH for them and ALLAH will reward us for that immensely in shaa ALLAH. May ALLAH keep guiding us all and protect us from any satanic influences. Aameen.
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Ath-thalaatha 10th day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Tuesday 4th of February, 2020). POLYGAMY IS A BLESSINGS FOR MANKIND IF ITS RULES ARE IMPLEMENTED. BismilLah. The sad reality in our so called modern days of wisdom is that you see some Muslims especially sisters leaving Islam and speaking against Polygamy. Please note that ALLAH concluded HIS Message to mankind with the religion of Islam, and HE tells us that HE will not accept any religion other than that. ALLAAH says: “And whoever seeks a religion other than Islam, it will never be accepted of him, and in the Hereafter he will be one of the losers”[Aal ‘Imraan 3:85]. Clear warning my dear sisters and brothers. Also note that ALLAH does not permit ANYTHING if it is not good for us. Thirdly; Its totally wrong to blame ALLAH and Islam due to the wrong actions of some Muslims. Our priority individually is to please ALLAH seeking HIS MERCY and Guidance in return for HIS PARADISE regardless of how your husban...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Ithnayn 9th day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Monday 3rd of February, 2020). Does rebuttals causes the Ummah to split. BismilLahir Rahmaanir Raheem. Refutations are of two types, those done by the people of knowledge, learning and insight, to clarify the truth and refute falsehood, these are beneficial and essential and shouldn't cause any split of the ummah. As for the refutations which emanate from the ignorant and students like us who are not well-versed, or the refutations that emanate from desires and [particular] inclinations, then these refutations are not allowed because they harm and do not benefit. As for the correct, reliable refutations which come from the people of knowledge in clarification of the truth and not based upon desires, then these are essential, because it is not allowed to remain silent about the people of misguidance who spread their misguidance and deceive the Ummah and the Ummah’s youth. Alhamdu lilLaahi alaa kulli ne...
DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul  Ahad 8th day of Jumaada Al-Thani (Sunday 2nd of February, 2020). THE SATANIC START TO OUR MARRIAGES. BismilLahir Rahmaanir Raheem. We all know the importance of marriage in Islam. I believe every one wants to find the right partner to be their companion but have you both decided how to Islamically get married to please ALLAH? Well if both doesn't plan well to please ALLAH, you will end up planning to please Satan as many does today especially in Africa. We start dating and sleeping with each other before the marriage as the man wants to taste/try her first, Astaghfirullah,  that's haraam my dear brothers and especially sisters, why do you make yourself so cheap to a man? Even if he intends marrying you, he must wait till after the marriage that's to respect your dignity and seeking ALLAH'S support. If he can't wait till after marriage please show him the red card for ALLAH sake and ALLAH will provide the better brother for you. ...
