THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Ar-Raabaā, 11th day of Zul Hijjah (Wednesday, 22nd August 2018). HALAAL MEANS OF ENTERTAINMENT DURING THESE 3 DAYS OF CELEBRATIONS. BismilLahir Rahmaanir Raheem. Eidul Adhar is the day of globalized celebrations among Muslims. We are emulating the sacrifice Ibrahim(A.S) made to Allah under the guidance of Allah Himself so whoever is capable should sacrifice for Allah sake and distribute some of the meat and other food stuff to the needy as taught by our beloved Messenger of Allah. For those praying today we say EID MUBARAK. You can sacrifice up to tomorrow Thursday. We all know how this Eid Celebrations has been turned into haraam festivals in almost every part of the globe due to satanic influences. Our sisters and brothers don't dress Islamically, we buy clothing made for non Muslims for our kids. Our sisters dress half Islamic but half non-Islamic showing off their necks, chest, hands to elbow etc. Alhamdulillah I've done a research and came out with some possible halaal means to enjoy our Eid. Someone will say “Halal” Entertainment? Are you kidding me? Well, certainly not. Human Being is a social animal and needs entertainment. I guess that is exactly why Eid (literally, celebration) is there for. We Muslims just need to find proper ways to make it. Halal entertainment refers to all that stuff you do within the bounds of Islam. Let's consider some of these awesome ways to get entertained in the “Halal” way. Just read on to get some awesome ones specifically for the Eid days in Shaa Allah up to Thursday and beyond. 1. Food distribution projects can be organised in Masjid where group of friends are arranging food, others are managing poor families who are been invited into various Masjids for food packages for them to eat and take away just as we do during Ramadan iftaar. 2. Some competitions like qirat and azaan for all those whom Allah SWT have blessed with a beautiful voice can be organised in our communities. They don’t sing songs, they recite Qur’an. They don’t know eminem, U2 and Nirvana but they know Shatri, Sa’ud ash-Shuraim, Sudaise and Mishari al fasi etc. Listen to this recitation and have a feel of it. For sisters, they have the same activities maintaining the best possible Hijab, where everything is managed by young girls and at on the other side its young boys and this is what I liked. No intermixing, no intergender communication. Beautifully managed. While the brothers handle outside affairs, sisters handle inside affairs. Sticking to their circle of influence. 3. Take a picnic trip to the biggest and most beautiful mosque of the city at any comfortable salat time (probably maghrib because it is offered aloud). Sit with your family in the masjid. Take your mothers and sisters with you. Let them feel the joy of salat in jamaah‘ (if there is a separate place for ladies to participate in the jamaah‘. The sisters must not be a trial for brother. Let your females come out of the stress of work at home, their kitchen and their kids. With these few tips it comes to an end. I wish all my Muslims brothers and sisters a very very happy, productive and entertaining Eid. Allah SWT make you, me and all our brothers and sisters among His pious slaves and bless us with the best of this world as well as of the Hereafter. Unfortunately I can't respond to the many eid wishes as such I say Eid Mubarak to you all. I appreciate all the best wishes sInce yesterday. May Allah accept it from us all. 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...
  THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm As-Sabt. 29th day of Rajab, 1445AH (Saturday, 10th February 2024). SOME PROPHETIC TEACHINGS BEFORE GOING TO BED. Bismillah. Before climbing onto bed anytime of the day or night, dust the bed thrice with the corner of any clothe. Clean your teeth with Miswaak if possible or with brush and paste. Be in a state of wuduu. Sleep on the right side of your body facing the Qibla with the right hand underneath the head like a pillow and with the knees slightly bent.  Recite Aayatul Kursy and the last three chapters (Al-Ikhlaas, Al-Falaq, An-Naas) of the Quran, dry blow air to your palms then wipe over your entire body as much as possible, beginning with your head and face and then all parts of the body, do this 3 times if you can or atleast once whenever you are feeling lazy like myself sometimes😊. It's sunnah from the Prophet Muhammed sallallahu alaihi wasallam. Don't forget to offer your witir Salaat before sleeping or offer your two rakaats sha...
