FIRST REMINDER. Yaumul Ahad, 11th/12th day of Ramadan (Sunday 27th May). THREE CATEGORIES OF PEOPLE ARE MENTIONED IN QUR'AN, WHICH CATEGORY ARE YOU? BismilLaahir Rahmaanir Raheem. Allah mentions 3 kinds of people in ‘The QUR'AN’, The Muttaqeen, The Kaafir and The Munaafiq. Which category do you fall into? Let's find out. CATEGORY 1 : AL-MUTTAQEEN. THOSE WHO ADOPT TAQWA/ALLAH CONSCIOUSNESS​ (Al Baqarah 2-5). This is the category we all would want to fall under. These are those who are the most dearest to ALLAH, the most HIGH. Charaterisitics of Al Muttaqeen (Those with Taqwa): They have eeman on ‘Gaib’, The Unseen – i.e. Believe in Allah, the Angels, The Messenger, The Revelation, Quran, The Day of Judgement and Destiny. They establish five regular daily prayers: They spend in Charity from whatever Allah has given them – i.e. ‘Rizq’. Rizq is tangible and well as intangible, for eg, Children, food, ilm (knowledge), time etc. Everything is Rizq given by Allah! They believe in the Revelation which was sent to Muhammad (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) – i.e the ‘Quran’ – and the revelations which were sent before him (Torah, Gospel etc. To previous nations). They have YAQEEN on Aakhirah. Yaqeen is Firm Believe, it is a degree higher than eeman. Yaqeen is as if you have seen it with your own eyes! You can defend it as if you were part of it or established it yourself. Allah says that Al Muttaqeen are those people who will receieve guidance from their Rabb (Lord) and these are the only category of people who will attain Success and Salvation! In shaa Allah, all good practising Muslims​ will be in this category under HIS MERCY. To be continued in shaa ALLAH. May ALLAH make us among those who are the successful. Aameen.
