SECOND REMINDER. Yaumu Al-Khamis, 5th day of Jumaadal Aakhir (22nd February). NON MUSLIMS DO ASKED, WHY ALLAH USES PLURAL "WE" SOMETIMES INSTEAD OF SINGULAR "I". Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem. Let's continue with our topic today. The question asked above is indeed a very very interesting one and one deserving of deep thought. Many non Muslims including some Muslims think that the English translated QUR'AN is same or similar to the original Arabic QUR'AN. That's a big mistake. ALL translations are subject to errors and misinterpretation. Arabic is a rich language and no English word can do justice to any Arabic word. You need to study Arabic grammar and text context as revealed to be able to understand each verse. First lets get one thing clear. And that is the message of Tauheed; Oneness of GOD(ALLAH) in Islam. 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 Mohammed (sallallahu alaihi wasallam). Allah says in Chapter 112, Surah Ikhlas Verse 1-4: Say: 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 and anything else. There is only One God, and HE Alone deserves to be worshipped, HIS name in Arabic is ALLAH. Everything else in creation are created by HIM alone! They are all dependent on HIM and there is nothing, I repeat, absolutely nothing like HIM at all. Allah says in the Holy Quran, Chapter 50 Surah Qaf verse 38: WE have created the heavens and the earth and all that lies between them in six period, and no fatigue overcame US. Again in Chapter 21 Surah Anbiyaa Verse 30-33: Have not the people, who have disbelieved the Message, ever considered this: the heavens and the earth were at first one mass; then WE parted them, and created every living thing from water. Please note that in the above verses, Allah is talking from a Majestic and Authorative position, thus the words WE are used, instead of I. This is a common phenomena, even in this world. The kings and rulers of this world normally use the word WE, when they issue a decree or a general order. Now we must realize, that Allah, HE is the Creator of all these kings and emperors, HE is the King of kings!! HE is sole Master of the whole Universe!! HE alone is the Creator, Owner, and Sustainer of the heavens and the earth and everything in between. Thus whenever HE speaks from a position of Majesty, the words WE are used in His communique. The Arabic word used is NAHNU which has two meanings, plural of respect or majestic and plural in numerical. So when ALLAH uses Nahnu, HE is not referring to HE and someone else but rather in Authority. In some instances when ALLAH is talking about death and how the soul is talking Nahnu is used in numerical represent Angels of death taken part as to how the soul is taken from our body. To be coantinued in Shaa ALLAH on verses that uses I so that you can understand my point. May Allah keep guiding us all and protect us from any satanic influences. 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...
