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.

 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...
 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm Al-khamis, 30th day of Rajab 1446AH, Thursday. 30th Jan. 2025). MEANING OF ALLAH CREATING HUMANS IN HIS OWN IMAGE.  BismilLah. Unfortunately, other faiths have made a serious mistake in trying to compare The CREATOR, ALLAH Azzawajal with HIS Creation human beings in physical appearance, and that's blasphemy and serious error  Sheikh AbuAmina, in one of his articles, explained that, in Islam, we believe that all people have been created in the “image” of ALLAH Azzawajal. But what does this mean? ALLAH Azzawajal is the creator of everything, including all people. That people are in the “image of ALLAH Azzawajal” means they are in the form that HE, ALLAH Azzawajal has chosen and honored for them, not that they resemble ALLAH Azzawajal in physical appearance or share in the Divine Essence. Just as we say a righteous person is the “servant of ALLAH” and a mosque is the “house of ALLAH” as a way to honor them, likewise is it an added dignity for pe...
THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat and Yaumul Aashuura. 10th day of Muharram, 1445AH (Friday, 28th July, 2023). SPECIAL EID DAY FOR US ALL. BismilLah.  Assalaamu Alaikum WarahmatulLah to you all. AlhamdulilLah for granting us the opportunity to be part of this blessed day. Today mark the day when ALLAH granted Musah alayhi salaam victory over Fir'awn. Today mark the day ALLAH humiliated HIS worse enemy on earth Fir'awn for his disbelief in ALLAH and claiming he was ALLAH. We are all fasting on this blessed day seeking forgiveness from ALLAH for our sins from last year till date as the Prophet sallalLaahu Alaihi Wasallam recommended.  Those who are unable to fast can still do much to earn lots of rewards especially our sisters and daughters in their monthly cycle. You can recite lots of azkaar and give sadaqah with your intention to seek forgiveness from ALLAH. Please remember today is Friday lets strive to go to Masjid early and also remember to send salutations to our...
