 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS.  Yaum Ath-thalaatha. 11th day of Ramadhan. (Tuesday, 12th of April, 2022). CHARACTERISTICS OF A TRUE BELIEVER. BismilLah. 


ALLAH, Praised be HIS Name, says:

“ The (true) believers are only those who, when ALLAH is mentioned, their hearts tremble, and when HIS verses are recited to them, it increases them in faith; and upon their Lord, they rely.” (Quran, 8:2).

ALLAH describes true believers with 3 amazing characteristics.


The first characteristic is that when ALLAH is mentioned, their hearts tremble out of awe, fear, and respect for HIM. This is because they really know who ALLAH is. 


The second characteristic is that their faith increases when the Quran is recited. Their eeman increase because they understand the meanings of the Quran.


The third characteristic is that they put their trust in their Lord. Since they know that HE is the Only One who predestinates and everything is under HIS Control.


These three characteristics will let you know if you are a true believer.

But not only this, the following verse (8:3) mentions establishing Salah and giving sadaqah as also characteristics of the true believers. So a true believer is the one who both has a strong faith in his heart and does good deeds with his limbs.


We should really check if we have these characteristics so that we may be among those whom ALLAH will give this reward as HE says in the fourth verse of this very same surah:

“ Those are the true believers. For them are degrees (of high position) with their Lord and forgiveness and an honorable provision.” (Quran, 8:4). ALHAMDULILLAH. May ALLAH keeps guiding us all and protect our eemaan from any satanic influences. Aameen.

DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt, 5th day of RAJAB (Saturday 29th of February, 2020). LETS BE MINDFUL OF THESE BAD HABITS IN LIFE. BismilLah. Let's remind  ourselves that ALLAH does not love stubborn rejectors of faith, committing sins, and showing ingratitude. ALLAH says: فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ الْكَافِرِينَ Verily, ALLAH does not love the unbelievers. Qur'an 3:32. Why? Bcs their disbelief in ALLAH and HIS Messenger only grant them the Hellfire. And ALLAH says: وَاللَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ كُلَّ كَفَّارٍ أَثِيمٍ ALLAH does not love any ungrateful sinner. Quran 2:276. ALLAH does not love arrogance, pride, boasting to one another, extravagance, and exultation in wrongdoing. ALLAH says: إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ مَن كَانَ مُخْتَالًا فَخُورًا Verily, ALLAH does not love those who are proud and boastful. Surah An-Nisa 4:36. These few are more than enough to aid us to fear these bad acts in our lives. We ask ALLAH to make us among those who are loved by HIM and who are...

FIRST REMINDER. Yaumul ahad, 11th day of Shawwal (Sunday 23rd May 2021). * _ This may not be true story from a friend but very true and sad reality of our modern world _ * . BismilLah. “The house where I lived was about to be seized, just because I could not pay the rent. I tried to get help from all relatives I know but all saying they don't have so I posted my situation on Facebook looking for help, but all I could get is 2 "I like" and zero comment. So I sent 250 messages to my contact list requesting a loan of N5000. Unfortunately only 10 people responded. 6 out of 10 said they could not help me. And only 1 out of 4 who promised to help me and gave me some money less than I needed. The other 3 gave me no excuse and never answered my calls. In the end, I was ejected. I became homeless. I did not have a place to sleep. I walked in the dark looking for options and, unfortunately, a thief stole my empty purse with my ID. He was badly hit by a car in high speed as he fle...

Before climbing onto bed anytime of the day or night, dust the bed thrice with the corner of any clothe. Clean your teeth with Miswaak if possible or with brush and paste. Be in a state of wuduu.

It's sunnah from the Prophet Muhammed sallallahu alaihi wasallam. Don't forget to offer your witir Salaat before sleeping or offer your two rakaats sha...
