 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul ahad. 19th day of Jumaadal Awwal. (Sunday 3rd January 2021).

OUR SALAAH, OUR KEY TO SUCCESS. Bismillaahir Rahmaanir Raheem. 


As-Salah means to worship ALLAH through certain known and prescribed sayings and actions starting with takbeer saying Allaahu Akbar i.e. ALLAH is the Greater, and ending with tasleem 

(saying: as-salaamu ‘alaykum wa rahmatul-lahi wa barakaatuh i.e. may ALLAAH’s Peace, Mercy, and Blessings be upon you). 


The Merits or importance of  As-Salah.

1. The Salaah Prevents us from al-Fahshaa (great sins of every kind, unlawful sexual intercourse, etc.) and al-Munkar (disbelief, polytheism, and every kind of evil wicked deed, etc.). (See Quran C: 29, V: 45). 

2. It is The best of deeds after the Testimony of Faith (laa ilaaha illal-laah, Muhammad 

rasoulul-laah). (See hadeeth of ‘Abdullaah ibn Mas’oud (radiyallaahu 'anhu) in Bukhari (v. 9, p. 625) & Muslim).

3. Washes out sins (See hadeeth of Jaabir (radiyallaahu 'anhu) in Muslim v. 1, p. 1410) 

4. Expiates sins (See hadeeth of Abu Hurairah (radiyallaahu 'anhu) in Muslim v. 1, p. 450) 

5. A light for its adherent in this Life and in the Hereafter (See hadeeth of Ibn ‘Umar (radiyallaahu 'anhuma) in Musnad Ahmad (v. 2, p. 169) with good chain of narration) 

6. Raises in rank and removes sins (See hadeeth of Thawbaan (radiyallaahu 'anhu) in Muslim (v. 1, p. 989).

7. One of the greatest causes to enter Paradise with the company of the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam. (See hadeeth of Rabee’ah Al-Aslami (radiyallaahu 'anhu) in Muslim v. 1, p. 990) 

8. Between each performance of salaah and the next performance, sins are pardoned. (See hadeeth ‘Uthmaan (radiyallaahu 'anhu) in Muslim v. 1, p. 438.

9. The angels will ask ALLAH for Blessings and Forgiveness upon the adherent in our place of prayers (See hadeeth of Abu Hurairah (radiyallaahu 'anhu) in Bukhari (v. 3, p. 330) and 

in Muslim) 

10. Waiting for the next prayer after performing a prayer is ribaat (keeping oneself adhering and firm on acts of obedience). (See hadeeth of Abu Hurairah (radiyallaahu 'anhu) in Muslim no. 251).

11. The one who goes to the Mosque to perform the prayer is in prayer until he returns. (See hadeeth of Abu Hurairah (radiyallaahu 'anhu) in Saheeh ibn Khuzaimah authenticated by 

Al-Albani). 

May ALLAH keep guiding us all and aid us to perform our salaat in time and as prescribed. 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. Yawmul ahad, 17th day of Sha’abaan 1446AH, Sunday. 16th Feb. 2025). THE TRUE MEANINGS OF THE WORD DEEN continues. BismilLah.  ALLAH (Azza Wa Jal, The MIGHTY and the MAJESTIC) has sent HIS Messenger with the true deen for the purpose of ending the sovereignty of all false gods and granting us immense freedom so that we live as servants of none but the LORD of the UNIVERSE, no matter how much the idolaters and polytheists may dislike or oppose such a course. Thus, these three meanings of deen stand out: To acknowledge ALLAH as the ONLY LORD, MASTER and RULER. To obey and serve ONLY HIM. To be accountable to HIM, to fear only HIS punishment and to covet only HIS reward. Deen also includes obedience to ALLAH'S Messengers. The commandments of ALLAH Azzawajal have been given to human beings through HIS books and HIS Messengers. ALLAH Azzawajal says; Children of Aadam! If there should come to you Messengers from among you, who convey MY revelations unto you, ...
  THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum ar-ba'a. 7th day of Jumaadal Aakhir.. (Wednesday 20th January 2021). Who are Believers. BismilLah.  Lets check in  Suurah Al-Mu'minun (The Believers). ALLAH says; 1. Successful indeed are the believers.  2. Those who offer their Salaat (prayers) with all solemnity and full submissiveness. 3. And those who turn away from Al-Laghw (dirty, false, evil vain talk, falsehood, and all that ALLAH has forbidden).  4. Those who pay the Zakat . 5. Those who guard their chastity (i.e. private parts, from illegal sexual acts) 6. Except from their wives or (the captives and slaves) that their right hands possess, for then, they are free from blame; etc ALLAH, the Most High, says “…for verily ALLAH is with those who believe.”[Al Qur’an 8:19] When ALLAH says that “HE is with the believers”, it means that the believers don’t need anyone else. Rasullulah(sallallahu alaihi wasallam) has said “Be mindful of ALLAH, and ALLAH will protect you. Be m...
