Islamic Daily Reminder

THE STORY OF THE PEOPLE OF THE PROPHET LUT ALAIHI SALAAM  DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm athalaatha, 8th day of Rabeeu ath-thaani 1447AH, Tuesday, 30th September, 2025. BismilLah.  ALLAH the Exalted states in the Qur’an 54:33-40 that the people of Lut defied and denied their Messenger and committed sodomy, the awful immoral sin that no people in the history of mankind had committed before. This is why ALLAH Azzawajal destroyed them with a type of torment that HE never inflicted upon any nation before them. ALLAH the Exalted commanded Jibril, peace be upon him, to raise their cities to the sky and then turn them upside down over them, followed by stones made of marked Sijjil. So ALLAH Azzawajal said: ﴾إِنَّآ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ حَـصِباً إِلاَّ آلَ لُوطٍ نَّجَّيْنَـهُم بِسَحَرٍ ﴿ (Verily, ALLAH sent against them Hasib (a violent storm of stones) except the family of Lut, them ALLAH saved in the last hour of the night.) They left the city in the last part of the night and were s...

 MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT ISLAM. DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm al-ithnayn, 7th day of Rabeeu ath-thaani 1447AH, Monday, 29th September, 2025.  Bismillah. Many non Muslims especially in the West seem to have many misconceptions about Muslims and Islam. Many believe that the Western world is advanced, enlightened and liberated, while Islam is just the opposite: primitive, ignorant and oppressed. One reason for this belief is that the media has time and again portrayed Muslims in a way contrary to Islamic teachings. The key to understanding Islam and Muslims is to resist stereotypes and examine each situation according to Islamic teachings, and NOT by some Muslims’ actions. For this reason, it's our duty to address the most common misconceptions. Have you ever wondered why a "Nun" can be covered from head to toe and she’s respected for devoting herself to God, but when a Muslim woman covers, she’s viewed as “oppressed”? Or why a Jew can grow a beard and he’s just practising his f...

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawmul ahad, 6th day of Rabeeu ath-thaani 1447AH, Sunday, 28th September, 2025. OUR SUSTENANCE IS FROM ALLAH AZZAWAJAL IF INDEED WE OBEY AND FOLLOW HIS COMMANDS. BismilLah.  ALLAH Azzawajal says: "There is no moving creature on earth but its sustenance depends on ALLAH: HE knows the time and place of its definite abode and its temporary deposit: All is in a clear Record". Qur'an, 11: 6. The clear Qur'anic teachings destroy the basic assumptions of the Population Control campaign. ALLAH says "And the earth I, ALLAH have spread out (like a carpet); set thereon mountains firm and immovable; and produced therein all kinds of things in due balance. And I, ALLAH have provided therein means of subsistence, for you and for those for whose sustenance you are not responsible." [Hijr 15:19-20]. People, birds, fish, animals, insects and reptiles are all creatures, which need food, air and water. ALLAH Azzawajal has bestowed HIS sustenance on eac...

 ISLAMIC RULINGS ON LOST AND FOUND ITEMS. DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawmul Jumuat, 4th day of Rabeeu ath-thaani 1447AH, Friday, 26th September, 2025.  BismilLah  Alhamdulillah for granting us the opportunity to be part of this blessed day of the week. Islam has solutions to all issues in life so let's study from the Sunnah about this topic.  Al-luqtah is property that has gone missing from its owner and it is one of the categories of Islamic jurisprudence or fiqh. If property goes missing from its owner, it has to be one of the following three scenarios: The first scenario: it is something to which most people would not attach much value, such as a whip, a loaf of bread, some fruit, or a miswak etc, something that is perishable or has no value. In these cases, the person who finds the property may keep it and use it without having to announce it, because of the report narrated by Jaabir RA, who said: “The Messenger of ALLAH (peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him) ma...

 TREATING HUSBANDS WELL TO PLEASE ALLAH DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm al-khamis, 3rd day of Rabeeu ath-thaani 1447AH, Thursday, 25th September, 2025.  Bismillah. In yesterday's reminder, I reminded my fellow brothers about the good treatment of our wives. I want to remind our sisters today about their part to play.  ALLAH Azzawajal commanded the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam to tell us that: "Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because ALLAH Azzawajal has made one of them to excel the other, and because they spend (to support them) from their means. Therefore the righteous women are devoutly obedient (to ALLAH and to their husbands), and guard in the husband's absence what ALLAH orders them to guard (e.g. their chastity, their husband's property, etc.)., ..." [Noble Quran 4:34]. The verse seems to present a great right of the husband over the wife. Upon deeper thought, it is clear that this verse actually points to a right of the wife and an oblig...

KIND TREATMENT OF OUR WIVES IS OBLIGATORY. DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawmul athalaatha, 2nd day of Rabeeu ath-thaani 1447AH, Wednesday, 24th September, 2025. Bismillah ALLAH Azzawajal ordered believers not to treat their wives harshly and live with them honourably. If you dislike them for some reasons, it may be that you dislike something and ALLAH brings through her a great deal of good"(Quran 4:19) and ALLAH says again: "And among HIS signs are that: HE created for us wives from among ourselves that we might find rest in our wives, and HE ordained between us love and mercy. Verily, in that are indeed signs for people who reflect" (30:21). Thus wise men. Let's note that women are a blessings for us and a trust for us from ALLAH Azzawajal. Treating our wives with kindness is an obligation and must be taking care of for ALLAH sake.  Our wives are not slave girls, and even during times of slavery, ALLAH Azzawajal commanded Muslims to treat them with dignity, marry them, ...

 HOW TO RECONCILE THE PROPHET S.A.W saying, “CONVEY FROM ME EVEN IF ONLY AN AAYAH or VERSE,” WITH THE CONDITION THAT A CALLER SHOULD HAVE COPIOUS KNOWLEDGE TO GIVE DAAWAH?. DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawmul al-ithnayn, 30th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Monday, 22nd September, 2025. BismilLah. Sheikh Al-Fawzaan in his response states that: There is no contradiction here Alhamdulilaah, because the conveyance is of two types: conveying the text and conveying the meaning. The first type: conveying the text [i.e., the wording] is something everyone who has memorized a text from Allaah’s Book or the Sunnah of HIS Prophet can do, he can help the people memorise it … when he’s memorised a Surah or an aayah he can teach the people that Surah and when he has memorised a hadith he can teach it to the people, this is conveying the text and anyone can do it, for this reason the Quraan is taught by many people who do not have knowledge but they have memorized the Quraan and can recite well, and [li...

 ARE WE SAVING FOR OUR HOME IN PARADISE OR JUST SPENDING OUR MONEY ON EARTH? DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawmul ahad, 29th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Sunday, 21st September, 2025.  BismilLah.  In Qur'an 63:9-10 ALLAH Azzawajal says; O you who have believed, let not your wealth and your children divert you from the remembrance of ALLAH. And whoever does that – then those are the losers. And spend [in the way of ALLAH] from what I (ALLAH) have provided you before death approaches one of you and he says, "My Lord, if only You would delay me for a brief term so I would give charity and be of the righteous."  Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: The Prophet (Sallalahu alaihi wasallam) said, "Everyday two Angels come down from heaven and one of them says, 'O ALLAH! Compensate every person who spends in Your Cause,' and the other (Angel) says, 'O ALLAH! Destroy every miser."' [Sahih Al-Bukhari, 2/1442 (O.P.522)]. SUBHAAALLAH.  From the above a...

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm As-sabt, 28th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Saturday, 20th September, 2025. ISLAMIC CURES FOR ARROGANCE, GREED, AND ENVY continues. BismilLah.  In the last two (2) days, we reminded each other about some of the solutions to arrogance and greed. Let's study some solutions to Envy.  Firstly: Seek Refuge in ALLAH Azzawajal: Pray for ALLAH's protection from the evil of the envious.  Secondly: Practice Gratitude: Appreciate the blessings ALLAH has bestowed upon you, as envy often stems from ungratefulness.  Thirdly: Reflect on the Other Person's Struggles: Recognise that people often face unseen problems, and what you envy may be a burden to them.  Forthly: Avoid Triggers: Be mindful of the negative effects of social media, which can trigger feelings of envy.   General Spiritual Principles for Arrogance,  Greed, and Envy: In conclusion: Let's Purify our Heart: Work to remove impure thoughts and fill your heart with love for...

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawmul Jumuat, 27th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Friday, 19th September, 2025. ISLAMIC CURES FOR ARROGANCE, GREED, AND ENVY. BismilLah.  Alhamdulillah for granting us the opportunity to be part of this blessed day of the week.  On yesterday's reminder, we reminded each other about some of the solutions to arrogance. Let's study some solutions to greed.  Let's Practice Gratitude: Be content with ALLAH's decree and appreciate what you have, as this prevents ungratefulness.  Live with Moderation: Avoid excessive consumption and focus on the blessings you already possess.  Avoid Envy: Refrain from looking enviously at others, as this fuels the fire of greed.  Focus on What Matters: Prioritise spiritual well-being and personal growth over material gain. To be continued tomorrow on solutions to Envy.  May ALLAH Azzawajal keep guiding and protecting us from any satanic influences. Aameen.

 ISLAMIC CURES FOR ARROGANCE, GREED AND ENVY DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm Al-khamis, 26th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Thursday, 18th September, 2025.  BismilLah.  The fact that Islam is a complete way of life means it has solutions to all problems whenever we choose to learn and implement the knowledge.  On yesterday's reminder, we reminded each other about 3 main sources of sins as arrogance,  greed and envy but what are the Islamic solutions or cures for these sources of sins? In Islam, curing arrogance, greed, and envy involves spiritual purification and conscious effort. The cures include developing humility, gratitude, and taqwa (God-consciousness), reflecting on the harm these vices cause, and seeking refuge in Allah's protection. Cultivating spiritual virtues like compassion and patience while avoiding the superficiality of social media also helps in eradicating these negative traits.  For Arrogance (Pride) Cultivate Humility: Practice self-awarenes...

THREE SOURCES OF SINS DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm Arba'a, 25th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Wednesday, 17th September, 2025. BismilLah.  Sheikh Ibn Al-Qayyim may ALLAH Azzawajal be pleased with him writes in his book Al-Fawaa’id: People may enter the Hellfire by three doors: the door of doubts which lead to uncertainty in the religion of ALLAH, the door of lusts which lead to preferring desires over obedience to ALLAH, and the door of anger which leads to aggression against HIS creation. The sources of every sin are three matters: arrogance which caused Satan to behave the way he did, greed which caused Aadam to be expelled from the garden, and envy which emboldened one of the sons of Aadam against his brother. He who protects himself from these three matters will be protected from evil. Unbelief comes from arrogance, disobedience comes from greed, and transgression and injustice come from envy. Sheikh Abdullah ibn Mas’ud may ALLAH Azzawajal be pleased with him reported: The Messe...

 MUSLIM MEN, WOMEN AND SECULAR EDUCATION DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm athalaatha, 24th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Tuesday, 16th September, 2025. BismilLah.  First of all, we all know in Islamic terms that education or learning is compulsory for both men and women without any discrimination. All the commands of ALLAH Azzawajal and HIS Messenger sallallahu alaihi wasallam on education are for both men and women.  Nowadays there are a lot of people who talk about the differences between a modern and Islamic Education. And it really surprises me as I don’t believe there is a need to choose between Islamic and modern Education. We should rather make both forms of education compulsory upon ourselves in balance.  Education means to learn about something one has no prior knowledge of, for example, modern science is defined as being a “system of knowledge gained by systematic research. Humans are asked, on various occasions in the Quran, to research, to make some thorough i...

SEEKING KNOWLEDGE AND ACTING ON IT. DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm al-ithnayn, 23rd day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Monday, 15th September, 2025.  BismilLah. One of the best teachers of Islam, Ibn Al-Qayyim, may ALLAH have mercy on him, writes in one of his books _Miftah Dar As-Sa’adah_: that; Knowledge has six levels: First, asking good questions. Second, good practice of silence and listening. Third, acquiring good understanding. Fourth, memorization. Fifth, teaching. And sixth, and this is the fruit of all knowledge, to act upon it and be careful of its limits. Among people are those deprived of knowledge due to their lack of asking good questions, whether by not asking at all or by asking about unimportant matters. And among people are those deprived of knowledge due to their poor ability to remain silent. For them, speaking and debating issues are more beloved and preferred over being quiet. This is a hidden defect in many seekers of knowledge that prevents them from much learning,...

 ARE WE SAVING FOR OUR HOME IN PARADISE OR JUST SPENDING OUR MONEY ON EARTH? DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawmul ahad, 22nd day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Sunday, 14th September, 2025.  BismilLah.  In Qur'an 63:9-10 ALLAH Azzawajal says; O you who have believed, let not your wealth and your children divert you from the remembrance of ALLAH. And whoever does that – then those are the losers. And spend [in the way of ALLAH] from what I (ALLAH) have provided you before death approaches one of you and he says, "My Lord, if only You would delay me for a brief term so I would give charity and be of the righteous."  Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: The Prophet (Sallalahu alaihi wasallam) said, "Everyday two angels come down from heaven and one of them says, 'O ALLAH! Compensate every person who spends in Your Cause,' and the other (angel) says, 'O ALLAH! Destroy every miser."' [Sahih Al-Bukhari, 2/1442 (O.P.522)]. SUBHAAALLAH.  From the above a...

 RULINGS ON OFFERING SALAT (The Prayer) WHEN THE FOOD IS READY or WHEN ONE IS IN DESPERATE NEED TO VISIT THE TOILET DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm As-sabt, 21st day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Saturday, 13th September, 2025. BismilLahir. Our mother Aishah (May ALLAH be pleased with her) said: I heard the Messenger of ALLAH sallallahu alaihi wasallam saying, "No Salat (prayer) should be performed when the food has been served, nor should it be performed when a person requires relieving himself. Imam Muslim. We learn from this Hadith that one should not offer Salat when he is hungry and the food has been served or has to answer the call of nature. The reason behind is that if one offers Salat in that condition, he will not be able to do it with full concentration.  Similarly, if one has to answer the call of nature, he should first do so and then offer Salat. This doesn't mean that we sit down with hunger when time is approaching for salaat whiles food is available till when its time...

 SALAAT ALAN NABI Sallallahu Alaihi wasallam. DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawmul Jumuat, 20th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Friday, 12th September, 2025. Bismillah.    The status which has been given to our beloved Prophet Muhammed (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) among all Prophets and Messengers is UNIQUE. He sallallahu  alaihi  wasallam is superior most and excels all among ALLAH'S creation, Last in the chain of Prophets, being the greatest benefactor of humanity, in him (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) culminates the perfection of all earlier Messages. We are indebted to him more than anyone else aside from ALLAH Azzawajal as ALLAH Azzawajal guided us through him sallallahu alaihi wasallam and the only way to express our gratitude to him is to submit supplication to ALLAH Azzawajal for him as ALLAH mentioned it in the Qur'an so that we can gain lots of blessings for ourselves. There is no better day than today Friday to send lots of salutations seeking blessings from ALL...

 QURAN, THE LIVE MIRACLE FOR MANKIND AND JINNKIND.  DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm al-khamis, 19th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Thursday, 11th September, 2025. BismilLah.  How do we explain to our non Muslim colleagues when they ask us to explain to them all about the Quran?.  Basically, we can reliably say that the Quran is the direct SPEECH of the CREATOR ALLAH (The Mighty GOD in English), a Final Testament or Revelation for Humankind. The Quran, the last revealed words of GOD, is the primary source of every Muslim’s faith and practice. It deals with all the subjects which concern human beings: wisdom, doctrine, worship, transactions, law, etc., but its basic theme is the relationship between HIM, the Creator and HIS creatures.  At the same time, it provides guidelines and detailed teachings for a just society, proper human conduct, and an equitable economic system. Note that the Quran was revealed to Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) in Arabic ONLY....

 ISLAMIC BABY NAMING CEREMONY DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm Arba'a, 18th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Wednesday, 10th September, 2025. BismilLah.  In all communities around the world the birth of a child is considered a blessing and ceremonies are held to celebrate this event. Besides being a natural expression of joy, it also serves a special purpose, that is, making it known in a suitable and dignified manner, that the father has accepted the child as his own and that there is no doubt or suspicion concerning this matter. It shuts the door to any mischief that could arise in the future. It is a confirmed sunnah of the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam to slaughter on the 7th day or 14th, 21st etc if the father can afford.  There is no particular ceremony in Islam where people gather to celebrate the naming of the newborn child. If by celebrating we mean inviting a group of Muslims or relatives to gather on the day when you perform the Aqeeqah(The sacrificing, the naming...

 THE EXCELLENCE OF STUDYING AND RECITING THE QUR'AN.  DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm Athalaatha, 17th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Tuesday, 9th September, 2025. BismilLah.  Our beloved Messenger of ALLAH sallallahu alaihi wasallam saying, "Read the Qur'an, for it will come as an intercessor for its reciters on the Day of Resurrection. By Imam Muslim. This Hadith tells the excellence of reciting the Qur'an and acting upon its injunctions. Intercession (in this Hadith) means that the Qur'an will be endowed with the power of speech by ALLAH Azzawajal and it will request ALLAH Azzawajal to forgive the sins of its reciters who acted upon its teachings. ALLAH Azzawajal will accept the request of the Qur'an, as signified in other Ahadith. An-Nawwas bin Sam`an (May ALLAH be pleased with him) reported: I heard the Messenger of ALLAH (PBUH) saying, "The Qur'an and its people who applied it, will be brought on the Day of Resurrection preceded with Surat Al-Baqarah ...

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawmul al-ithnayn, 16th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Monday, 8th September, 2025. OUR AQEEDAH AS MUSLIMS continues. Bismillaah Let's continue from our reminder yesterday; To prove that the claim of eemaan (faith) is genuine, the effect of Aqeedah on the actions of the body must materialise; otherwise, this claim remains unfounded: ALLAH (Al-Hayyu, The Living) says; Verily, those who believe [in the Oneness of ALLAH, and in HIS  Messenger Muhammad (Peace be upon him) including all obligations  ordered by Islam] and do righteous good deeds, they are the best of  creatures. [Surah Al-Bayyinah (98), Ayah 7. Also ALLAH Azzawajal says "But as for him who BELIEVES and WORKS RIGHTEOUSNESS, he shall have the best reward (Paradise), "[Surah Al-Kahf (18), Ayah 88.  These are explicit indications which recur in many verses of the Qur’an in such a way that only those with a blurred vision or blind hearts would ignore them: ALLAH Azzawajal says; “Veri...

 OUR AQEEDAH AS MUSLIMS DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawmul ahad, 15th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Sunday, 7th September, 2025. Bismillaah Aqeedah refers to those matters which are believed in, with certainty and conviction, in one’s heart and soul. They are not tainted with any doubt or uncertainty. The Arabic word ‘aqeedah stems from the root ‘aqada, which conveys meanings of certainty, affirmation, confirmation, etc. In Islam, ‘aqeedah is a matter of knowledge. The Muslim must believe in their heart and have faith and conviction, with no doubts or misgivings, because ALLAH Azzawajal has told us about ‘aqeedah in HIS Book and via HIS Revelations to HIS Messenger (peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him).  The principles of ‘aqeedah are those which ALLAH Azzawajal has commanded us to believe in, as mentioned in the aayah  "The Messenger believes in what has been sent down to him from HIS Lord, and so do the believers. Each one believes in ALLAH, HIS Angels, HIS Books and HI...

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm As-sabt, 14th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Saturday, 6th September, 2025. IS SUFFERING A PROBLEM? lets continue from yesterday's reminder. BismilLah.  There are two categories of miseries and troubles in this world. The first category is a means of punishment and torture from ALLAH Azzawajal. Punishment is reserved for the Hereafter, but ALLAH Azzawajal may inflict a token of punishment on the sinners so that they may give up their sins and take to piety and righteousness and even that may be blessings to protect you from the hellfire.  The second category of troubles are those that ALLAH Azzawajal uses to elevate a man’s status and grant him reward and recompense in return for his troubles and worries suffered in this world.  Troubles are a punishment if a Muslim does not turn his attention to ALLAH Azzawajal, he resorts to all the worldly means and discards his salaah. He does not turn to ALLAH in repentance and with supplications for ...

 IS SUFFERING A PROBLEM? LET'S FIND OUT DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawmul Jumuat, 13th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Friday, 5th September, 2025. BismilLah.  My Dear Brothers and Sisters in Islam, most non Muslims and even some Muslims argue, that if ALLAH Azzawajal is Love, All Merciful, then why do people suffer? There are so many earthquakes, floods, volcanoes; there’s so much warfare, hunger and disease: Why do innocent men, women and children have to endure unspeakable hardship? Why do the real sinners seem to get away with their crimes? Sometimes we hear people say, “How can I believe in a Merciful and Loving ALLAH when HE allows so much suffering?” These people take the existence of suffering as proof that ALLAH Azzawajal doesn’t exist, or if HE does exist, then HE doesn’t deserve to be worshipped, because HE appears to be so unjust (AuuzubilLah). How do we deal with such arguments? First of all, we must be clear that every human being, without exception, will at some time ...

 HOW IMPORTANT IS MAKKAH AND MADEENAH TO THE MUSLIM WORLD DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm Al-khamis, 12th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Thursday, 4th September, 2025.   BismilLah. ALLAH Azzawajal has made MAKKAH and MADEENAH the places of resort for mankind and a place of safety and a holy sanctuary where pilgrims can gather to perform the rituals of Hajj (Pilgrimage) and ‘Umrah (lesser pilgrimage) in an atmosphere of comfort and tranquillity, hoping for ALLAH’s Reward and fearing HIS Punishment (Glorified be HE). It is also a place where the reward for performing Salah (Prayer) and righteous deeds are multiplied. It's a place with 💯% security from ALLAH Azzawajal that's why men and women can pray together bcs Satan has no chance to influence anyone at that Holy place.  As muslims it must be among our most important priorities to visit this country for Hajj for all those who can afford. You can also plan Umra anytime especially around Ramadhan as a visit to gain more rewar...

 HOW TO MAKE BETTER PROFIT IN THIS LIFE AND THE NEXT LIFE. DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm Arba'a, 11th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Wednesday, 3rd September, 2025. Bismillah. A person came to the Messenger of ALLAH (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) and said: “O Messenger of ALLAH! Today I have made such a profit that nobody in this valley could have gained as much as I did.” The Messenger of ALLAH (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “Woe to you! How much is your profit?” The man said: “I kept on selling and buying until I earned 300 Uqiyyah.” Thereupon, the Messenger of ALLAH (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “I will tell you the most valuable thing that a person can earn to boast about.” The man asked: “What is that, O Messenger of ALLAH?” The Messenger of ALLAH (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) replied: “Two Rakaat (of supererogatory prayer) after (an obligatory) prayer.” [Abu Dawud, Kitaab al-Jihad]. Notice that the Messenger of ALLAH (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) did not celebrate the ...

 HONESTY IS FARD ON US DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm athalaatha, 10th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Tuesday, 2nd September, 2025. BismilLah.  We are commanded to be honest with ourselves and with others. This order repeatedly comes in the Noble Qur'an and the sayings of Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam). Islam orders the Muslim to tell the truth even if it is against the teller's interest.  Honesty means doing the right thing in the right way at the right time. Honesty means objectivity in judgment, objectivity in evaluation, and objectivity in decisions of all types. Honesty implies the right selection of personnel and the right promotion of personnel, i.e., selection by merit and promotion by merit, not by temper or favouritism or personal relations. Honesty is the opposite of lying, the opposite of bluffing, the opposite of hypocrisy, the opposite of favouritism, and the opposite of deceit.  May ALLAH Azzawajal keep guiding us all and forgive us for our ...

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm al-ithnayn, 9th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Monday, 1st September, 2025. ASKING YOUR HUSBAND FOR A DIVORCE FOR NO LEGITIMATE REASON IS A DANGEROUS ACT continues. BismilLah. Many women hasten to demand a divorce from their husbands for the slightest argument, or if their husbands do not give them what they want in money. Some women may be egged on by troublemakers among their relatives, friends or neighbours to challenge their husbands with provocative words such as: “If you are a real man, you would divorce me!” The dire results of divorce are well known: breakdown of the family and children roaming the streets. A person may come to regret divorce when it is too late. For all these reasons and others, the Sharee’ah wisely prohibited such actions.  The Prophet (peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him) is reported to have said: “Any woman who asks her husband for a divorce with no sound reason will be deprived of smelling the fragrance of Paradise...

 ASKING YOUR HUSBAND FOR A DIVORCE FOR NO LEGITIMATE REASON IS A DANGEROUS ACT DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawmul ahad, 8th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1447AH, Sunday, 31st August 2025. BismilLah. Before I commence on this topic, let me remind all brothers that the sister you decide to marry is a contract you are signing through her parents and ALLAH Azzawajal to be her protector, to cater for her, to create companionship between the two for Halaal sexual relationship, to prepare her well towards raising Rightours children who will become sadaqatul Jaariya(To pray and seek forgiveness for us after our death) etc.  She may also be created barren as a test for you to cater for her through patience till Jannat becomes the abode for both which must be our priority in life. If you deny her, her rights most importantly you stop feeding her, she has an Islamic right to deny you a sexual relationship and has the right to seek divorce and you must grant her Request or face ALLAH Azzawajal on judg...
