THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Ithlayn, 5th day of Rajab, 1440, (Monday, 11th March, 2019). THE POWER OF REPENTANCE. Bismillaahir Rahmaanir Raheem. As Muslims our faith may become weak and we may be overwhelmed by our evil desires due to satanic influences. The Shaytaan may make sin attractive to us, so we wrong ourselves (commits sin) and falls into that which ALLAAH has forbidden. But let's always remember that ALLAAH is Kind to HIS servants, and HIS mercy encompasses all things. Whoever repents sincerely after doing wrong, ALLAH will accept his repentance, for ALLAH is Forgiving and Merciful.  ALLAH says; “But whosoever repents after his crime and does righteous good deeds (by obeying ALLAAH), then verily, ALLAAH will pardon him (accept his repentance). Verily, ALLAAH is Oft Forgiving, Most Merciful. Al-Maa’idah 5:39. ALLAH is Forgiving and Generous. HE commands all HIS servants to repent sincerely so that they may gain HIS MERCY and HIS Paradise. ALLAAH says; “O you who believe! Turn to ALLAH with sincere repentance! It may be that your Lord will expiate from you your sins, and admit you into Gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise)” [al-Tahreem 66:8] Again ALLAH promises in the Quran: “Except the one who repents and believes and does good deeds, then ALLAH will replace the evil deeds of such people by good deeds, and ALLAH is Most Forgiving, Very-Merciful.” [Surah Al-Furqan, Ayat 70] Allahu Akbar. A true repentance will not only remove the bad deeds from your record, but will actually convert it into good deeds. Alhamdulillah. Let's avoid immitating or following the footsteps of the kuffar. Let's avoid going to beeches, let's avoid trying to please them in their religious innovations, edit your friends and ensure your good character is your daawah to them etc. The main ingredients for repentance is to sincerely regret your sins and by asking ALLAH to forgive you in your own language or better of say astaqfirulLah regularly and seriously without going back to the sins but even if you go back keep seeking forgiveness till you are able to forgo your sins. May ALLAH forgive our sins and protect us from going back to the sins. 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...

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.

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.
