 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat, 16th day of Safar. (Friday, 24th of September 2021).

WHO IS ALLAH? LETS CLEAR SOME MISCONCEPTIONS. BismilLah.


Some non Muslims are happily broadcasting that Muslims worship Moon god claiming that ALLAH (The Most MERCIFUL) is a god or idol in Saudi Arabia Astaghfirullah. Let's clear this misconception. 


Quran proves such claims wrong, "Allah" is NOT a 'moon god' as ALLAH (The Greatest) says in the Quran;

"And from among My Signs are the night and the day, and the sun and the moon. Do not bow down (prostrate) to the sun nor to the moon, but only bow down (prostrate) to ME "ALLAH" Who created all those signs, if you (really) worship ME." [Noble Quran 41:37]. ALLAH is the Almighty God who is the CREATOR of all that exist. Believe it or not, that's your cup of tea. Funny enough, open any Arabic Bible, the same ALLAH was used for GOD so does the Arab Christians worshipping god or idol when they mention ALLAH in their BIBLE? Hypocrisy isn't it?


What is the significance of the crescent moon in Islam? Allah (The Most Perfect) says; "They ask you about the new moons. Say: These are signs to mark fixed periods of time for mankind and for the pilgrimage." [Noble Quran 2:189]. Note that the crescent is not a symbol of Islam, it's one of the CREATION of ALLAH (The King) for mankind. Some Muslims used it on their mosque just to help visitors identify that this is a mosque. The crescent is not part of our acts of worship in anyway aside aiding us to identify the beginning of each Islamic month etc. 


Some ask, Why does Islam follow a lunar calendar? I say, In both the Bible and the Quran, religious festivals are regulated by the lunar calendar. Jews and Muslims have kept to these regulations which we believe to be from God, ALLAH. Why does others follow a solar calendar? They can't answer that bcs they prefer to follow their heart desires due to jealousy and hypocrisy. The crescent used on mosques is to only help visitors to identify this is a masjid as people of the olden days were struggling to locate mosque when they visit any city or town as such adopted the crescent to differentiate the Mosque from normal buildings. This is just to open to topic. In shaa ALLAH from tomorrow, I will start exploring the Holy Quran so that we can all take the journey of knowing who ALLAH IS. 


May ALLAH (The Maintainer of Life) keep guiding us all and guide the misguided into Islam. 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...
