 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum ath-thalaatha. 27th day of Jumaadal Aakhir. Tuesday 9th February 2021).

TAU’BAH (SEEKING FORGIVENESS) is our topic today in shaa Allah. BismilLah. 


Seeking Forgiveness and Sincere Repentance are very important in getting us closer to ALLAH. 

Benefits of Tau’bah:

The Qur’an describes the story of Prophet Nuh (A.S),

"I said (to them): Ask forgiveness from your Lord; Verily, HE is Oft-Forgiving; HE will send rain to you in abundance; And give you increase in wealth and children, and bestow on you gardens and bestow on you rivers. " [Quran 71:10-12]. This verse clearly shows if you need children, wealth, good health etc increase your Tauba by regularly seeking forgiveness from ALLAH by saying AstaghfirulLah sincerely and strive to stop sins. 


Whoever makes Tau’bah re-establishes his relationship with the Creator of the heavens and earth. 


Misconceptions when committing a sin:

1. The person thinks that no one is watching. 

ALLAH (Subhanahu WaTaala), the all-Knower and all-Hearer says in the Qur’an: “Verily, your Lord is Ever Watchful” [89:14].

2. The person thinks that no one is near him. ALLAH (Subhanahu WaTaala), says in the Qur’an:

“Have you not seen that ALLAH knows whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is on the earth? There is no secret counsel of three, but HE is their fourth (with HIS Knowledge), nor of five but HE is their sixth (with HIS Knowledge), not of less than that or more, but HE is with them (with HIS Knowledge) wheresoever they may be; and afterwards on the Day of Resurrection, HE will inform them of what they did. Verily, ALLAH is the All-Knower of everything. “[58:7].


3. The person thinks that no one can find his action or intent.

ALLAH (Subhanahu WaTaala), says in the Qur’an: “ALLAH knows the fraud of the eyes, and all that you conceal.”[40:19].


4. The person thinks that no one can catch him or punish him.

ALLAH (Subhanahu WaTaala), says in the Qur’an: “So on that Day, none will punish as HE will punish. “[89:25]“…Verily, HIS Seizure is painful, and severe.” [11:102]. May ALLAH forgive our past, present and future sins and protect us from any satanic influences. 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...
