THIRD REMINDER. Tuesday. THE PROPHET GENEROSITY: Bismillaahir Rahmaanir Raheem. Hadrat Ibn 'Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, reported that Allah's Messenger, may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him, was the most charitable of all people, he was extremely  generous in the month of Ramadan. It is narrated that the Angel Gabriel, peace be upon him, would sit with the Prophet every year during the month of Ramadan. Allah’s Messenger would recite the Qur'an to the Angel and in this month he was the most generous in giving charity (Muslim). The generosity of the Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, was an example to be followed. His generosity won the hearts of people and made them wish to embrace Islam. There is a famous story that testifies to his generosity. The Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, was walking with Safwaan Ibn Umayyah, who was still a polytheist and the Muslims had tremendous spoils of war. Safwaan looked at a valley full of camels and sheep for a long time. When the Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, saw him doing this, he said: "Do you like it, Abu Wahb?" Safwaan said: 'Yes. The Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, said: "All this is yours." Safwaan, almost not believing what he heard, said: "Only a Prophet could ever give this. I testify that none is worthy of worship but Allaah and that Muhammad is His Slave and Messenger. This led him to embrace Islam. The Prophet, sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam, did the same thing with a man who came to him asking for help. The man went back to his people saying: "My people, embrace Islam, for Muhammad gives so much charity as if he has no fear of poverty." (Saheeh Muslim). Allahu Akbar. We ask Allah to aid us in learning and implimenting more about our beloved messenger of Allah. 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...
FIRST REMINDER. Yaumul ahad, 11th day of Shawwal (Sunday 23rd May 2021). * _ This may not be true story from a friend but very true and sad reality of our modern world _ * . BismilLah. “The house where I lived was about to be seized, just because I could not pay the rent. I tried to get help from all relatives I know but all saying they don't have so I posted my situation on Facebook looking for help, but all I could get is 2 "I like" and zero comment. So I sent 250 messages to my contact list requesting a loan of N5000. Unfortunately only 10 people responded. 6 out of 10 said they could not help me. And only 1 out of 4 who promised to help me and gave me some money less than I needed. The other 3 gave me no excuse and never answered my calls. In the end, I was ejected. I became homeless. I did not have a place to sleep. I walked in the dark looking for options and, unfortunately, a thief stole my empty purse with my ID. He was badly hit by a car in high speed as he fle...
