 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat, 16th day of Safar. (Friday, 24th of September 2021).

WHO IS ALLAH? LETS CLEAR SOME MISCONCEPTIONS. BismilLah.


Some non Muslims are happily broadcasting that Muslims worship Moon god claiming that ALLAH (The Most MERCIFUL) is a god or idol in Saudi Arabia Astaghfirullah. Let's clear this misconception. 


Quran proves such claims wrong, "Allah" is NOT a 'moon god' as ALLAH (The Greatest) says in the Quran;

"And from among My Signs are the night and the day, and the sun and the moon. Do not bow down (prostrate) to the sun nor to the moon, but only bow down (prostrate) to ME "ALLAH" Who created all those signs, if you (really) worship ME." [Noble Quran 41:37]. ALLAH is the Almighty God who is the CREATOR of all that exist. Believe it or not, that's your cup of tea. Funny enough, open any Arabic Bible, the same ALLAH was used for GOD so does the Arab Christians worshipping god or idol when they mention ALLAH in their BIBLE? Hypocrisy isn't it?


What is the significance of the crescent moon in Islam? Allah (The Most Perfect) says; "They ask you about the new moons. Say: These are signs to mark fixed periods of time for mankind and for the pilgrimage." [Noble Quran 2:189]. Note that the crescent is not a symbol of Islam, it's one of the CREATION of ALLAH (The King) for mankind. Some Muslims used it on their mosque just to help visitors identify that this is a mosque. The crescent is not part of our acts of worship in anyway aside aiding us to identify the beginning of each Islamic month etc. 


Some ask, Why does Islam follow a lunar calendar? I say, In both the Bible and the Quran, religious festivals are regulated by the lunar calendar. Jews and Muslims have kept to these regulations which we believe to be from God, ALLAH. Why does others follow a solar calendar? They can't answer that bcs they prefer to follow their heart desires due to jealousy and hypocrisy. The crescent used on mosques is to only help visitors to identify this is a masjid as people of the olden days were struggling to locate mosque when they visit any city or town as such adopted the crescent to differentiate the Mosque from normal buildings. This is just to open to topic. In shaa ALLAH from tomorrow, I will start exploring the Holy Quran so that we can all take the journey of knowing who ALLAH IS. 


May ALLAH (The Maintainer of Life) keep guiding us all and guide the misguided into Islam. 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...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Al-Khamis. 25th day of RAJAB, 1444AH (Thursday 16th February. 2023). TOLERANCE WITH PEOPLE IN ISLAM. BismilLaah.  Tolerance (samah) is an important trait of a Muslim’s good character. We Muslims should be kind and gentle, patient with people, forgiving of bad character, and lenient whenever possible. The Prophet Mohammed Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam commanded us to avoid causing unnecessary difficulty and hardship in people’s lives and to inspire people with graceful speech. Make things easy and do not make things difficult. Give glad tidings and do not repel people. Cooperate with each other and do not become divided. Sahih Bukhari 2873, Grade: Muttafaqun Alayhi. This command is closely related to the need of a Muslim to control his or her anger. Unrestrained anger leads to numerous sins and bad deeds, so Muslims must temper their anger with patience, tolerance, and the ability to hold back harmful words. Teasing, mockery, insults to others et...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt. 17th day of Jumaadal Aakhir.. (Saturday 30th January 2021). A SERIOUS CONDITION TO FULFILL FOR ALLAH TO ANSWER OUR DUA. BismilLah Consuming haraam wealth is one of the major reason why du’aa’s are not answered. Abu Hurayrah (may ALLAAH be pleased with him) said: the Messenger of ALLAH (peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him) said: “O people, ALLAAH is Good and only accepts that which is good. ALLAAH commanded the pious to follow the same commandments as HE gave to the Messengers. HE says; ‘O (you) Messengers! Eat of the Tayyibaat [all kinds of Halaal (lawful) foods which ALLAAH has made lawful (meat of slaughtered eatable animals, milk products, fats, vegetables, fruits)] and do righteous deeds. Verily, I am Well-Acquainted with what you do’ [al-Mu’minoon 23:51]. ‘O you who believe (in the Oneness of ALLAAH, Islamic Monotheism)! Eat of the lawful things that I have provided you with’ [al-Baqarah 2:172]. Another important point is to rea...
