Islamic Daily Reminder

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt, 14th day of Rabeeul Awwal (Saturday 31st October. 2020). HOW TO BE RICH. BismilLah..  We are taught in Islam that if we want ALLAH to bless us more, we must appreciate the little we've got and be content.     When we are content with what ALLAH (subhana wa ta’ala) has for us in this world, we will free our mind to work for our Hereafter. The freer we are to work for our Hereafter, the more we will accumulate for it.  The world rewards us primarily on the results we produce: But ALLAH (subhana wa ta’ala) rewards us on sincerity and effort. Been Rich means acquiring paradise through our faith, sincerity and trust in ALLAH. Imagine you been the wealthiest human on earth but due to your struggle for such wealth, did nothing for your hereafter, you become the foolish person on earth instead isn't it?. May ALLAH aid us to strive for our ever lasting happiness in paradise. Aameen.

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat, 13th day of Rabeeul Awwal (Friday 30th October. 2020). TAU’BAH  (SEEKING FORGIVENESS) is our khutbah today be-izniLLAH. BismilLaah. Alhamdulillah for granting us another blessed day of the week.  As believers we must run away from sins as one runs away from a wild animal.  Even a minor sin makes a true believer restless as if a mountain is above his head and is about to fall on him and crush him. Let's Make a U-turn in life, wash off our slate of deeds, eliminate the bad deeds and protect our good deeds. Method of making Tau’bah are as follows: 1. To immediately abstain from the sin. 2. To regret and wish one had never indulged in the sin. 3. To resolve to never commit the sin again seeking help from ALLAH. 4. If one have violated the rights of another person it is necessary to seek forgiveness from that person.  After making sincere tau’bah be confident in the acceptance of your tau’bah. ALLAH (Subhanahu WaTaala) is ...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Khamis, 12th day of Rabeeul Awwal (Thursday 29th October. 2020). DO NOT REJECT THE CALL TO REAL SUCCESS. BismilLaah.  When a friend, a relative or an acquaintance invites us to their house or to a social gathering, we usually tend to respond in two ways. Either we graciously accept their invitation or we politely refuse because we simple have other commitments. It also often happens that when we respond in the negative, we tend to feel bad while turning down an invite. Imagine a situation where your friend invites you over for lunch. You decline the invitation but he or she invites you again the next day. Clearly, the friend is interested in spending time with you because he or she must really like you. You decline again. The next day, your friend invites you once more for lunch. You will respond in either two ways. You will feel bad and finally accept the invite or you will turn it down once more. After having his or her invitation reject...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arba'a, 11th day of Rabeeul Awwal (Wednesday 28th October. 2020). THE EVIL NATURE OF Hypocrisy CONTINUES. BismilLah.  Let's continue from our reminder yesterday; Among the characteristics of hypocrites among Muslims especially of today are those which were described by the Messenger (peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him):  “There are four (characteristics), whoever has all of them is a complete hypocrite, and whoever has some of them has some element of hypocrisy, unless HE or she gives it up: when he speaks, he lies; when he makes a treaty, he betrays it; when he makes a promise, he breaks it; when he quarrels, he resorts to insults.”(Narrated by Imam Muslim, 53). If you are within these list then please repent to ALLAH seeking HIS guidance and forgiveness.  Among their characteristics is a concern with appearances and fancy speech whilst they are inwardly corrupt. “And when you look at them, their bodies please you; and when t...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Ath-thalaatha, 10th day of Rabeeul Awwal (Tuesday 27th October. 2020). THE EVIL NATURE OF HYPOCRISY. BismilLah.  ALLAH and HIS Messenger has warned us seriously about Hypocrisy. It is a serious sickness and a great crime. The major form of hypocrisy is making an outward display of Islam whilst inwardly concealing kufr. Hypocrisy is more dangerous than kufr (disbelief) and the punishment for it is more severe, because it is kufr mixed with Islam and its harmful effects are greater. Hence ALLAH will put the hypocrites in the lowest level of Hell, as He says:  “Verily, the hypocrites will be in the lowest depth (grade) of the Fire; no helper will you find for them (Quran 4:145). The hypocrites are always confused, always planning deceit and plots. Although outwardly they appear to be with the believers, inwardly they are with the kaafireen. So sometimes they are inclined towards the believers and sometimes they are inclined towards the kaaf...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Ithnayn, 9th day of Rabeeul Awwal (Monday 26th October. 2020). WHO TO PLEASE IN LIFE. BismilLah.  In an authentic hadith, Our beloved Messenger of ALLAH (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “He who displeases ALLAH for seeking the pleasure of people, ALLAH is displeased with him and those people will also be displeased, And he who pleases ALLAH, although by it he displeases people, ALLAH will be pleased with him, and also those people whom he had displeased will be pleased for pleasing ALLAH.  This is a wonderful hadith which simplifies life immensely for us. It is impossible to please everybody all the time. In fact, it is even impossible to please one person all the time. ALLAH (subhana wa ta’ala) tells us that instead of constantly catering to one person or another, we should direct all our efforts to pleasing HIM, and HE will take care of all the rest. Many a times we shy away from obeying ALLAH (subhana wa ta’ala), fearing repercu...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Ahad, 8th day of Rabeeul Awwal (Sunday 25th October. 2020). SEEKIG REFUGE IN ALLAH FROM A NIGHTMARE OR EVIL DREAM.  BISMILLAH.  Our beloved Messenger of ALLAH, peace and blessings be upon him and his family, said, “The good dream is from ALLAH and the evil dream is from Satan. So whoever sees something he dislikes, let him BLOW dry air to his left three times and seek refuge in ALLAH from Satan, for verily, it will not harm him. Verily, Satan cannot appear in my form.”Sahih Bukhari 6594.  This hadith highlights the importance of only seeking protection from ALLAH without any fear of any bad dream. Satan wants to put fear in us so that we can visit his agents the source sayers or fortune tellers and fall into kufur so ignore any bad dream, don't even inform anyone but rather seek protection from ALLAH as soon as you wakeup then blow air 3 times to your left after seeking protection from ALLAH. May ALLAH keep guiding us all and prot...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt, 7th day of Rabeeul Awwal (Saturday 24th October. 2020). HOW DO WE HANDLE IT WHEN WE LOSE SOMEONE?. BismilLah.  We know that death is a certainty but in reality we tend to harbour illusions that we will live forever. We feel as if those around us will not be taken from us, and we form deep attachments that make it difficult for us to cope, or even comprehend, when someone is not there anymore. In understanding death, we have to first understand life. The nature of this world is that everything in it is temporary. Monuments crumble, civilizations perish, people come and go. Health alternates illness. The old make way for the new, and the cycle of life continues. People are placed in our lives for a reason, but we lull ourselves into the false sense of security that they will be around indefinitely. This is why we cannot cope with the loss. We feel as if the death of a parent, a relative or a loved one is against the natural order of th...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat, 6th day of Rabeeul Awwal (Friday 23rd October. 2020). SOME WAYS SATAN USES TO DAMAGE OUR GOOD DEEDS. BismilLaahir Rahmaanir Raheem.  Satan has so many ways to influence us to sin against our soul. Among them is to Instills feelings of pride and Ar-Riya (showing off). When one does good deeds, Satan is quick to instill feelings of pride followed by the desire to show off one’s virtues or achievements (also referred to as Ar-Riya). He diverts his victim’s mind from vying for the deed’s rewards from ALLAH to expecting praise to flow from people instead.  As Muslims, let’s not forget that the payoff that we desire for our deeds reflects the nature of the intention of doing those deeds. Our beloved Messenger of ALLAH (Peace be upon him) says: "The most fearful thing I fear for you is Minor Shirk". He (Peace be upon him) was asked about it, and he said: "It is (Ar-Riya’) showing off". Then, he (Peace be upon him) explained it s...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Arba'a, 4th day of Rabeeul Awwal (Wednesday 21st October. 2020). SELLING ALCOHOL AND OTHER HARAAM ITEMS TO NON-MUSLIMS. BismilLah.  Selling Alcohol, pork and whatever is haraam for us is haraam whether it is sold to a Muslims or non Muslims. The evidence for that is as follows:   The Messenger (peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him) taught us an important principle when he said: “When ALLAH forbids a thing, HE (also) forbids its price.” Narrated by Abu Dawood, 3488; classed as saheeh by Shaykh al-Albaani in Ghaayat al-Maraam, 318.  It was narrated from Jaabir ibn ‘Abd-Allaah (may ALLAH be pleased with him) that he heard the Messenger of ALLAH (peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him) say when he was in Makkah at the time of the Conquest: “ALLAH and HIS Messenger have forbidden the sale of alcohol, dead meat, pork and idols.” It was said: “O Messenger of ALLAH, what do you think of the fat of dead animals, for ships are ca...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Arba'a, 4th day of Rabeeul Awwal (Wednesday 21st October. 2020). SELLING ALCOHOL AND OTHER HARAAM ITEMS TO NON-MUSLIMS.

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Ath-thalaatha, 3rd day of Rabeeul Awwal (Tuesday 20th October. 2020). THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE INCLUDING THE WINDS BELONGS TO ALLAH. BismilLah.  ALLAH says in Quran 15:22 that  HE send the winds fertilizing. i.e., fertilizing the clouds so that they give rain, and fertilizing the trees so that they open their leaves and blossoms. These winds are mentioned here in the plural form because they give results, unlike the barren wind (Ar-Rih Al-'Aqim, see Adh-Dhariyat 51:41), which is mentioned in the singular and described as barren since it does not produce anything; because results can only be produced when there are two or more things. Abdullah bin Mas`ud said, "The wind is sent bearing water from the sky, then it fertilizes the clouds until rain begins to generously fall, just as the milk of the pregnant camel flows generously." "ALLAH send the winds to the clouds and it gets fertilized and becomes full of water." Ubayd bin Umayr Al-...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Ithnayn, 2nd day of Rabeeul Awwal (Monday 19th October. 2020).  HONESTY IS FARD ON US. BismilLah.  We are commanded to be honest to ourselves and to others. This order repeatedly comes in the Noble Qur'an and the sayings of Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam). Islam orders the Muslim to tell the truth even if it is against the teller's interest.  Honesty means doing the right thing in the right way at the right time. Honesty means objectivity in judgment, objectivity in evaluation, and objectivity in decisions of all types. Honesty implies the right selection of personnel and the right promotion of personnel, i.e., selection by merit and promotion by merit, not by temper or favouritism or personal relations. Honesty is the opposite of lying, the opposite of bluffing, the opposite of hypocrisy, the opposite of favouritism, and the opposite of deceit.  May ALLAH keep guiding us all and forgive us for our lack of hone...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Ahad 1st day of Rabeeul Awwal (Sunday 18th October. 2020).  FOUR (4) GOLDEN DEEDS THAT LEADS TO SUCCESS CONTINUES. BismilLaah.  Let's continue from our reminder yesterday.  The third deed is Istighfaar (seeking forgiveness from ALLAH), and this too does not require us to spend of our life, wealth, or time. Whenever a person happens to commit a small or big sin, he should immediately feel remorseful about it and say Astaghfirullah, which means: “O ALLAH. I seek Your forgiveness.” Its a key to all doors in life. Regularly say Astaqfurallah and in shaa ALLAH it will help you a lot.    The fourth deed is Isti’aazah. Isti’aazah means to seek protection. Before we even begin to recite the Qur’an we recite A'uuzubillah minash sheitaanir rajeem which means “I seek ALLAH'S protection against the accursed and rejected Shaytan.” This action of ours is also Isti’azah because what we are essentially saying is, “O ALLAH! Take us withi...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt 30th day of Safar (Saturday 17th October. 2020).  FOUR (4) GOLDEN DEEDS THAT LEADS TO SUCCESS. BismilLah. The first deed is Shukr (Gratitude to ALLAH). Firstly, you need to make it a habit that every day when you get up in the morning and before you sleep at night you glance at yourself and your circumstances and then reflect on the spiritual and material Blessings that ALLAH has bestowed upon you, and give a collective thanks to HIM for them. Especially you need to reflect on the wealth of Eeman (true faith in ALLAH) and easy circumstances that ALLAH has given you and give your heartfelt thanks to HIM for them, and resolve to use those gifts in a proper way.  Besides this, whenever a thought crosses your mind about any of the bounties from ALLAH that you enjoy, you should thank HIM quietly, in your heart by saying ALHAMDULILLAH. In other words, whenever something happens according to what you wished or wanted and you feel happy ...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat 29th day of Safar (Friday 16th October. 2020). WE ARE THE ARCHITECT OF OUR OWN SUFFERING. BismilLah. Alhamdulillah for blessing us with another blessed day of the week. May ALLAH aid us to make good use of this blessed day by following the sunnahs of the day. The sad reality we find ourselves today as humans especially in we Muslims is the fact that we hate each other, we envy each other, we blame each other, we focus on accusing and abusing others. We never focus on ourselves first and try to be good human beings. We all know the many hadith and Qur'an verses on this points I'm raising today. The Prophet sallallahu Alaihi wasallam said no one can claim to be a believer if he does not love for others what he love for himself. This is a well known authentic hadith right? But sadly majority of we Muslim today cannot claim to pass this basic rule of our deen. We hate our own parents and children, we hate our wives and husbands, co-wives ...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Khamis 28th day of Safar (Thursday 15th October. 2020). THE QUR'AN, THE DIRECT SPEECH OF ALLAH FOR MANKIND. BismilLah.  The Qur'aan is the Direct Speech (kalaam) of ALLAH, in both WORDING and MEANING. From ALLAH it originated and to HIM shall it return. It is an inimitable miracle, indicative of the truthfulness of what the Prophet sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam was sent with. Its text and meanings are preserved from corruption until the Day of judgement. That's what ALLAH says. ALLAH the Most High Speaks WHATEVER HE wills, WHEN HE wills and HOW HE wills is to perfection. The Speech of ALLAH is real (haqeeqah), with letter (harf) and voice (sawt), but we do not know about the modality and how it is (kayfiyyah), nor do we debate about it or delve into it. As believers, we here and we obey no but no if and that's one of the meaning of the Shahaada. As Muslims, it's compulsory to study the QUR'AN without ANY excuse bcs if you ca...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS . Yaum Ath-thalaatha 27th day of Safar (Tuesday 14th October. 2020). THE MUSLIM WOMAN AND HER OWN SELF  Bismillah Islam encourages the Muslim to stand out among people, readily distinguishable by their dress, appearance and behavior so that they will be a good example, worthy of the great message that they bring to humanity. According to the hadith narrated by the great sahabi Ibn Al-Hanzaliyyah, the prophet (Sallallaahu Alaihi Wasallam) told his companions when they were traveling to meet some brothers in faith: "you are going to visit your brothers, so repair your saddles and make sure that you are dressed well, so that you will stand out among people like an adornment, for ALLAH (SWT) does not love ugliness." Reported by Imam Abu Dawud, 4/83, in kitab al-libas, bab ma ja'a fi isbal al-azar; it's isnad is sahih.  The prophet (Sallallaahu Alaihi Wasallam) considered an unkept and careless appearance, and scruffy clothes and furnishings to...

  THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Ath-thalaatha 26th day of Safar (Tuesday 13th October. 2020). SOME WISDOM BEHIND WUDUU (Ablution) . BismilLah. Let's note the fards or compulsory parts of wuduu which are: To wash the face, the two hands and arms including elbows, to wipe the head and to wash the two feet including the heels. There are wisdoms behind wuduu in terms of protection from sins Our religion orders us to wash certain parts of the body (to make wuduu) before standing in the presence of ALLAH. The divine aim here is not only cleaning these parts from visible dirt and dust but also from the spiritual and invisible impurities of the sins they have committed through the water of repentance and asking for pardon. Besides, there are deep wisdoms behind the order of washing these organs or parts. The first part that is fard to wash is the face. For, there are organs like the mouth (tongue), nose and eyes that are used primarily to commit sins. Let us think about the mouth: I...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Ithnayn 25th day of Safar (Monday 12th October. 2020). WHY IS WUDUU(Ablution) SO IMPORTANT. BismilLah.  Wuduu(Ablution) is so important even in terms of health because it cleans the organs that are exposed to dirtiness and that are always in contact with things outside like hands, face, mouth, teeth, nose, head and feet. The ways through which microbes could penetrate the body are cleaned at least five times a day Alhamdulillah; thus, many diseases are prevented; the nervous system and the circulatory system of the body then functions better. Wuduu actually eliminates anger and calms the spirit. Therefore, the Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) advised a person who becomes angry to make wuduu. (Abu Dawud, Adab, 3; Musnad, 4/226) Wuduu is a spiritual weapon of a believer and a spiritual shield against invisible dangers. Alhamdulillah.  A Muslim who makes wuduu is purified and cleaned from both material and spiritual impurities. His s...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Ahad 23rd day of Safar (Sunday 11th October. 2020) SALAAT IS THE KEY TO ALL PROBLEMS. BismilLah.  Our beloved Messenger of ALLAH is reported to have said that; “A person who has misses one Salaat is like the one who has lost all his family and wealth. SubhaanAllah.   “Salaat was the first and foremost thing ordered by ALLAH after accepting to Obey HIM, and it shall be the first and foremost thing to be reckoned for on the Day of Judgment”. Salaat is the light of a Muslim, Salaat is the best ‘Jihad', Moreover, Salaah is the key to Paradise. Salaat ensues daily bread, promotes health, drives out diseases, strengthen the heart, brings light and beauty on the face, pleases the soul, refreshes the body, relives the mind, feeds the soul, illumines the heart and guarantees ALLAH'S fear, it grants protection from ALLAH'S doom, it keeps the devil away and brings us near to ALLAHS. What else do we need to hear before making Salaat our prior...

  THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt 22nd day of Safar (Saturday 10th October. 2020) DON'T FOLLOW ANY SECT IN ISLAM ASIDE AHLUL SUNNAH WALJAMAA'H . BismilLah. Please note, it is our collective responsibility to remind each other about the truth. I'm not interested in any argument. If you trust you've got something better to share to others and ready to be accountable to ALLAH one day about it, you can do so without unnecessarily arguing about the truth be-iznilLah. ALLAH the almighty says in QUR'AN 3:102-103 that, if we claim to be Muslims or believers then we must fear ALLAH by obeying HIS commands and die not except As Muslims, that is in submission to HIS rules. Within verse 103, ALLAH also warned us not to be divided into any sects or disunite and hold firmly the commands of the Qur'an which includes obeying and following strictly the teachings of Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam without any IF or BUT. We cannot be united on falsehood as ...

  THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat 21st day of Safar (Friday 9th October. 2020) EACH OF US WILL REGRET WHEN WE DIE . BismilLah. Our beloved messenger of ALLAH (Al-Muhaymin, The Guardian, The Preserver, The Overseeing Protector) said in an authentic narration that  everyone is going to regret after his death, a believer or a disbeliever. A believer will regret because he wish he could have done more of the good deeds so that his reward will be much more to be among those in Jannat who are above him in rank and the disbeliever will regret because of the heap of punishment that he will be undergoing. Each of these category will wish they are giving the opportunity to come back to this world to either do something more or do something different. when we die we will wish we are giving the chance to have another few hours more, so that we can recite the Quran more, Offer more sunnah salat, Do daawah to disbelievers and remind fellow Muslims about our purpose of life, off...

  THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Khamis, 20th day of Safar (Thursday 8th October. 2020) YOUR SPIRITUAL LIFE INSURANCE WITH ALLAH . BismilLah. ALLAH has requested as to invest with HIM by offering beautiful loan in the form of helping other creatures especially our relatives in rewards to a lofty place in Paradise. Let's consider this hadith below. It was narrated that Abu Sa’eed al-Khudri (may ALLAAH be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of ALLAAH (peace and blessings of ALLAAH be upon him) went out on Eid al-Fitr or Eid al-Adha to the prayer place, and when he had finished (the prayer) he preached to the people and enjoined them to give charity. He said, “O people, give in charity!” Then he went over to the women and said, “O women, give in charity for I have seen that you are the majority of the people of Hell.” When he went home, Zaynab the wife of Ibn Mas’ood came seeking permission to see him. It was said, “O Messenger of ALLAAH, here is Zaynab.” He said, “Which Zay...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arba'a, 19th day of Safar (Wednesday 7th October. 2020). LET'S STRIVE TO BE SUCCESSFUL MUSLIMS. BismilLah.  ALLAH summarised to us in the Qur'an the qualities of a successful Muslim in Quran 23:1-10. ALLAH says قَدۡ أَفۡلَحَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنُونَ  Successful indeed are the believers, who have the following characteristics: الَّذِينَ هُمْ فِي صَلَتِهِمْ خَاشِعُونَ Those who with their Salah are Khashi`un. Ali bin Abi Talhah reported that Ibn Abbas said: Khashi`un means those with fear and with tranquility." Al-Hasan Al-Basri said, "Their Khushu` was in their hearts." So they lowered their gaze and were humble towards others. Khushu` in prayer is only attained by the one who has emptied his heart totally, who does not pay attention to anything else besides it, and who prefers it above all else. At that point it becomes a delight and a joy for eyes, as in the Hadith recorded by Imam Ahmad and An-Nasa'i from Anas, who said that the...

  THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum at-thalaatha, 18th day of Safar (Tuesday 6th October. 2020). SATAN'S PLOT ON US AND OUR WEAPON AGAINST HIM . BismilLah. Satan strives hard to seduce humans to make us fall into evil and sin. If a person escapes from the snares of Satan, and satan sees that we have turned to ALLAH, he starts to cast doubts into our heart regarding the sincerity of our Tawbah(Repentance) and magnify our sins in our eyes, making us think that ALLAH will not forgive such sins, because they are too many and too grave. If Satan does not find response, he starts to remind people of their past sins and misdeeds to make us feel sad. ALLAH (Exalted be HE) says: Secret counsels (conspiracies) are only from Shaitân (Satan), in order that he may cause grief to the believers. But he cannot harm them in the least, except as ALLÂH permits. And in ALLÂH let the believers put their trust. (Surah Al-Mujadalah, 58:10). Let's avoid commiting sins and rely solely on ALLAH as AL...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum ul Al-lthnayn, 17th day of Safar (Monday 5th October. 2020).  ISLAMIC TEACHINGS ON HOW TO TREAT OUR RRLATIVES Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem.  Islam gives great importance to the bonds of kinship and rights of relatives. ALLAH command us in the holy Qur'an on that at least 12 times in different verses but i will mention just few. Aayah 90 of surah Nahl says: "ALLAH enjoins justice, generosity and kind treatment to relatives..." The third thing which has been enjoined is good treatment with one's relatives. It's means that one should not only treat relatives well, share their sorrows and pleasure and help them within lawful limits but should also share one's wealth with them along with the rights of parents and immediate family. The prophet (Sallallaahu Alaihi Wasallam) has emphasized this fact in many traditions. In the light of such traditions a person owes right to his parents, his wife, husband, children, brothers, sisters a...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum ul Jumuat, 15th day of Safar (Friday 2nd October. 2020).  Real Meaning of Inna lillaahi Wa Inna ilayhi Raaji'uun Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem.  As Muslim we are thought to accept the decision of ALLAH in our lives in good faith. Just like a friend who lends you his book. And then after a few days he wants it back and you give it back to him... no regrets... no sorrow... no questions asked. Just think... the owner came and took it back. Remember... that you're not the real owner... you were NEVER the real owner to begin with. You only had everything because it was ALLAH who gave it to you in the first place. If HE didn't give it to you, you wouldn't have had it in any way... infact you couldn't have had it. Remember... that man enters into this world empty handed... and leave it empty handed. Remember... that everything we have, all the blessings we enjoy, are gifts from Almighty ALLAH... gifts that we enjoy for a limited period unt...

  THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum ul Jumuat, 14th day of Safar (Friday 2nd October. 2020). * _ ALLAH has promised us Jannat, what else do we need? _ * Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem. ALLAH has said in the Quran: “And give good news (O Muhammad) to those who believe and do good deeds, that they will have gardens (Paradise) in which rivers flow....” (Quran 2:25) ALLAH has also said: “Race one with another for forgiveness from your Lord and for Paradise, whose width is as the width of the heavens and the earth, which has been prepared for those who believe in ALLAH and HIS messengers....” (Quran 57:21). The Prophet Muhammad, may the mercy and blessings of ALLAH be upon him, told us that the lowest in rank among the dwellers of Paradise will have ten times the like of this world,  [ Narrated in Saheeh Muslim, #186, and Saheeh Al-Bukhari, #6571], and he or she will have whatever he or she desires and ten times like it. [ Narrated in Saheeh Muslim, #188, and Mosnad Ahmad, #10...
