Islamic Daily Reminder

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum al-ithnayn, 6th day of Rabeeu ath-thaani 1444AH (Monday 31st October. 2022). DOES Muslims Worship Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) AS OTHERS DO TO PREVIOUS PROPHETS?”. BismilLah.  Yet another misconception is that Muslims worship the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). This is entirely untrue, and is easily refuted by the actual saying of the Prophet (peace be upon him): “Do not over-praise me as the Christians over-praised Jesus peace be upon him, the son of Mary. I am a Servant to the Creator,  ALLAH, so refer to me as ‘God’s slave or servant and a Messenger. That's exactly what all Prophets said to their people.  Worshipping God alone is the basis of Islamic teachings, as mentioned in the Qur’an in numerous places:  “And worship ALLAH and do not join anyone with HIM in worship.”Qur’an 4:36. Islam teaches Muslims to respect all of God’s Prophets and Messengers - but respecting and loving them does not mean worshipping t...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Ahad, 5th day of Rabeeu ath-thaani 1444AH (Sunday 30th October. 2022). SHOW OFF IS A SERIOUS CRIME FOR OUR EEMAAN (Faith in ALLAH). BismilLah.  One of the companions of the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam, Shaddad ibne Aws (radi Allahu anhu) once began to cry, People asked why he was crying, so he replied, “It is something I heard from Rasulullah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) which makes me weep when I remember it. Rasulullah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: ‘I fear for my people Shirk (ascribing partners to ALLAH) and hidden desires.’ I asked: ‘O Rasulullah! Would your people be guilty of idolatry after your death?’ Rasulullah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) replied: ‘Yes (but) they will not worship the sun, the moon, a stone or an idol; but they will act for display (without sincerity). Hidden desire is that one of them will start the day fasting, but when one of his desires will present itself to him; he will abandon his fast (and sa...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum , 4th day of Rabeeu ath-thaani 1444AH (Saturday 29th October. 2022). LET'S STRIVE TO BE GOOD TO OTHERS. BismilLah. Imam Abu Huraira may ALLAH be pleased with him reported: The Messenger of ALLAH, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Charity is due upon every joint of the people for every day upon which the sun rises. Being just between two people is charity. Helping a man with his animal and lifting his luggage upon it is charity. A kind word is charity. Every step that you take towards the mosque is charity, and removing harmful things from the road is charity. Sahih Bukhari 2827, Grade: Muttafaqun Alayhi. One of Our mother's of believers Aaisha may ALLAH be pleased with her reported: The Messenger of ALLAH, peace and blessings be upon him, heard the loud voices of two men in a dispute at a door. One was asking the other to lessen his debt and was pleading with him to show leniency, and the other said, “By ALLAH, I will not do that!” The Me...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat, 3rd day of Rabeeu ath-thaani 1444AH (Friday 28th October. 2022). LETS AVOID WASTING OUR TIME. BismilLah.  The Prophet, peace be upon him, warned us, "Man shall not be let go or discharged on the Day of Judgement until he has been questioned about FOUR things: 1. With regard to his life, how did he spend it? 2. With regard to his youth, in what ways did he expend it? 3. With regard to his Wealth: where did he earn it from, and what did he spend it on? 4. With regard to his knowledge, what use did he put it to?"(Al-Bazzar and At-Tabarani). These are only a few just not to prolong the reminder. Let's be mindful as the grave is waiting for each of us. It could be you or me tomorrow. Please remember today is Friday.  May ALLAH keeps guiding us all and protects us from any satanic influences. Aameen.

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Khamis, 2nd day of Rabeeu ath-thaani 1444AH (Thursday 27th October. 2022). ACCEPTED DUA(SUPPLICATION) BismilLah.  In Jami`at-Tirmidhi, Book 27, Hadith 11, Abu Harairah (RA) narrated that the Messenger of ALLAH (peace be upon him) said: "Three supplications are accepted, there is no doubt in them (about them being accepted): The supplication of the oppressed, the supplication of the traveler, and the supplication of parents on children." ALLAHU AKBAR.  This is a beautiful hadith on hope, reflection and patience. Hope for the oppressed, reflection for the traveller, and a warning to exhibit patience with our children.  May ALLAH keep guiding us all and accept our supplication. Aameen.

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arba'a, 1st day of Rabeeu ath-thaani 1444AH (Wednesday 26th October. 2022). BE POSITIVE ALL THE TIME AND AVOID ANYTHING THAT DOES NOT CONCERN YOU OR CAN BENEFIT YOU OR OTHERS. BismilLah. Our beloved Messenger of ALLAH sallallahu alaihi wasallam encouraged us to think positive all the time about anything or any issue. Alway remember that nothing can happen without the permission of ALLAH so whatever happens to you positively or negatively please be patient and always remember the above statement from ALLAH and HIS Messenger. We have a duty to take care of our worldly affairs, meet our work obligations, pay our bills, fulfill our trusts, and so on. If we do things right then we must always be positive regardless of how negative it looks like because behing every difficulty is ease as ALLAH says so lets not loose hope and utter words or phrase that can worsen the situation.  On issues of Islam please do not speak ill about any issue concerning I...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Ath-thalaatha, 29th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH (Tuesday 25th October. 2022). WHAT WILL YOUR EXCUSE BE TOMORROW BEFORE ALLAH? Bismillah.  ALLAH has commanded us to adhere firmly to His religion, as He says: “Hold firmly to that which ALLAH has given you” [al-Baqarah 2:63]. Religion is a serious matter that distinguishes truth from falsehood, it is not a thing for amusement [Quran 86:13]. Many people do not take the matters of their religion seriously, and they offer feeble excuses. This is one of the signs of the Munaafiquun (hypocrites), who take their religion for mockery and fun [Quran 5:57], and when they are rebuked or advice is offered to them, they come up with excuses which in fact are worse than the sin for which they are offering these excuses. Thus people come up with excuses one after another, for major and minor sins alike, in a failed attempt to avoid feeling guilty and avoid the advice of sincere people. Let's fear death and st...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum al-ithnayn, 28th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH (Monday 24th October. 2022). SHOWING OFF IN WORSHIP. BismilLah.  Whoever does any act of worship for the sake of ALLAAH and other people, his deeds will be unacceptable, as is stated in the hadeeth qudsi: ALLAH says “I am so self-sufficient that I am in no need of having an associate. Thus he who does a deed for someone else’s sake as well as MINE will have that deed denounced by ME to him who he associated with ME.” (Reported by Muslim, no. 2985). It may happen that a person starts to do a deed for the sake of ALLAAH, then the urge to show off comes over him. If he resists that impulse his deed will still be acceptable, but if he submits willingly to it, then in the opinion of most of the scholars his deed will be unacceptable. May ALLAH protect us from any satanic influences. Aameen.

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Ahad, 27th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH (Sunday 23rd October. 2022). SHOULD I CHANGE MY NAME AFTER JOINING ISLAM?.  BismilLah.   AlhamdulilLah for guiding us to Islam. When you become a Muslim you don’t have to change your name unless its meaning is Islamically objectionable.  The Prophet did not order anyone who accepted Islam to change their names. Since Arabic names generally have meanings, he did change names with offensive or religiously objectionable meanings.  And if the name is Islamically objectionable, then it is recommended to take a Muslim or Islamic name but not compulsory. Even if your first name does contradict Islamic principles and changing it in official documents would cause you much distress or harm, then it suffices to change it amongst family and acquaintances If you do change your name, do not change the family name or your father’s name, even if it be an impermissible name, but just your first name...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt, 26th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH (Saturday 22nd October. 2022). MAKING SUNNAH WITH HER DURING HER MENSTRUATION PERIOD IS HARAAM.  BismilLaah.  ALLAH has forbidden men to have intercourse with their wives at the time of menstruation.  The Qur’aan clearly stated the reason for this prohibition, which is that menstruation is adha (a harmful thing). ALLAH says:  “They ask you concerning menstruation. Say: that is an Adha (a harmful thing for a husband to have a sexual intercourse with his wife while she is having her menses), therefore, keep away from women during menses” [al-Baqarah 2:222]. Scientific studies in this field have disclosed to us some of the harm that is referred to in this verse, but they have not managed to describe all the harms that are referred to in the Qur’aanic text. As Muslims Qur'an and Sunnah is more than enough for us to adhere and practice.  The penetration of the manhood into the womanhood...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat, 25th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH (Friday 21st October. 2022). JUMUAT KHUTBAH. BismilLah.  Our beloved Messenger of Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) was asked: “Who are the best type of people?” He (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) replied: “A person who is truthful in his speech and Makhmoom in his heart.” the companions asked: “We know what is truthful speech, but what is a Makhmoom heart?” He (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) responded: “It is a pure pious heart that does not have envy, evil or spite.” [Ibn Maajah] Now let's consider this short story to understand our reminder this morning: A teacher once told each child in her troublesome class to bring a plastic bag and some potatoes. Each child should put in their bag as many potatoes as the number of people they hated. Some brought two potatoes in a bag, some three and some up to five. The teacher then told the children to keep their potato containing plastic bags by their sides fo...

THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Khamis, 24th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH (Thursday 20th October. 2022). *_DO NOT REJECT OR ABANDON ISLAM INTO ANY RELIGION BECAUSE OF WORLDLY GAINS_*. BismilLah.  ALLAH says clearly in the Quran that HE had perfected Islam for mankind and declared that HE will not accept any religious beliefs except Islam so please dont gamble with your life for worldly gains. ALLAH says again in Qur’an 3 verses 106 to 107 as follows; On judgement day some faces will turn white and [some] faces will turn black. As for those whose faces turn black, [to them it will be said], "Did you disbelieve [i.e., reject faith] after your belief? Then taste the punishment for what you used to reject." And for those whose faces will become white, they will be in ALLAH'S mercy (Paradise), therein they shall dwell forever. This is a clear warning especially to Muslims who deviate into kufur and whoever rejects Islam. For those who did not hear about Islam at all, ALLAH...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arba'a, 23rd day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH (Wednesday 19th October. 2022). TOLERANCE WITH PEOPLE IN ISLAM. BismilLah.  The scholars of prophetic narrations understood tolerance to be a very important concept in Islam and specifically in business. Ibn Majah includes in his Sunan a chapter entitled, “On tolerance in trade,” in which he records the following narration: Imam Uthman ibn Affan may ALLAH be pleased with him reported: The Messenger of ALLAH, peace and blessings be upon him, said: ALLAH the Exalted will admit a man into Paradise who was easy in his buying and selling, in his paying debts and seeking repayments. Sunan An-Nasa’I 4696. Therefore, Muslims should always treat others with respect, kindness, and patience. Islam was revealed to make life easier and to encourage good relationships between people. In modern usage, the word “tolerance” has come to signify mutual respect and peaceful coexistence between conflicting religions and id...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Ath-thalaatha, 22nd day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH (Tuesday 18th October. 2022). ALLAH'S BLESSINGS. Bismillah. Our beloved Messenger of ALLAH (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said in his farewell Hajj: “Wherever and in whatever circumstances you are, fear ALLAH.” [Narrated by Imam Tirmidhi]. Fearing ALLAH (subhana wa ta’ala) logically entails fearing to disobey HIM. The advantage of obeying ALLAH (subhana wa ta’ala) extends to both this world and the Hereafter. ALLAHsays in the holy Quran; “And whosoever fears ALLAH and keeps his duty to HIM, HE will make a way for him to get out (from every difficulty). And HE will provide him from (sources) he never could imagine.” [Surah at-Talaaq, Ayat 2-3].  There is something very serious that we ignore in life and that's the fact that whatever ALLAH provide to HIS creation as blessings, Satan also provide it's opposite towards disobedience.  Imam Ibn Al-Qayyim Al-Jawziyah says: “Just as righteousness br...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum al-ithnayn, 21st day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH (Monday 17th October. 2022). FORGET ABOUT LIFE INSURANCE AND ACCEPT ALLAH'S LIFE ASSURANCE. BismilLah.  ALLAH says in Qur'an 41:30-31 Indeed, those who have said, "Our Lord is ALLAH" and then remained on a right course (means, they do good deeds sincerely for the sake of ALLAH, and they obey ALLAH, doing what ALLAH has prescribed for them), the angels will descend upon them (at the moment of death), [saying], "Do not fear and do not grieve but receive good tidings of Paradise, which you were promised. Verse 31: We [angels] were your allies in worldly life and [are so] in the Hereafter. And you will have therein whatever your souls desire, and you will have therein whatever you request [or wish]. Meaning: We have been your friends, i.e., your close companions, in this world, protecting you and helping you by the command of ALLAH, and we will be with you in the Hereafter, keeping you fr...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul ahad, 20th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH (Sunday 16th October. 2022). ALLAH IS SUFFICIENT FOR US, LET'S JUST OBEY HIS ORDERS AND TRUST HIS DECISIONS WITH PATIENCE. BismilLah.  Narrated Ibn 'Abbas [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: Once I was behind the Prophet (Sallallaahu alaihi wasallam) and he said: "O boy, I will teach you a few words: a) Be loyal and obedient to ALLAH [worship HIM (Alone)], remember HIM always, obey HIS Orders. HE will save you from every evil and will take care of you in all the spheres of life. b) Be loyal and obedient to ALLAH, you will find HIM near (in front of you), i.e. HE will respond to your requests. c) If you ask, ask ALLAH. d) If you seek help, seek help from ALLAH. e) Know that if all the people get together in order to benefit you with something, they will not be able to benefit you in anything except what ALLAH has decreed for you. And if they all get together in order to harm you with something, they will not...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt, 19th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH (Saturday 15th October. 2022). ARE YOU SAVING FOR YOUR HOME IN PARADISE OR JUST SPENDING YOUR MONEY ON EARTH?. BismilLah.  In Qur'an 63:9-10 ALLAH says; O you who have believed, let not your wealth and your children divert you from the remembrance of ALLAH. And whoever does that – then those are the losers. And spend [in the way of ALLAH] from what I (ALLAH) have provided you before death approaches one of you and he says, "My Lord, if only You would delay me for a brief term so I would give charity and be of the righteous." Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: The Prophet (Sallalahu alaihi wasallam) said, "Everyday two angels come down from heaven and one of them says, 'O ALLAH! Compensate every person who spends in Your Cause,' and the other (angel) says, 'O ALLAH! Destroy every miser."' [Sahih Al-Bukhari, 2/1442 (O.P.522)]. SUBHAAALLAH.   May ALLAH accept ...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat, 18th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH (Friday 14th October. 2022). SALAAT ALAN NABI Sallallahu Alaihi wasallam. Bismillah.    The status which has been given to our beloved Prophet Muhammed (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) among all Prophets and Messengers is UNIQUE. He is superior most and excels all among ALLAH'S creation, Last in the chain of Prophets, being the greatest benefactor of humanity, in him (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) culminates the perfection of all earlier Messages. We are indebted to him more than anyone else aside ALLAH as ALLAH guided us through him sallallahu alaihi wasallam and the only way to express our gratitude to him is to submit supplication to ALLAH for him as ALLAH mentioned it in the Qur'an so that we can gain lots of blessings to ourselves. There is no better day than today Friday to send lots of salutation seeking blessings from ALLAH. Target 100x today before asr. Say in shaa ALLAH and start as soon as ...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Khamis, 17th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH. (Thursday, 13th of October 2022). THE POWER OF REPENTANCE AND SEEKING FORGIVENESS. BismilLah.  In Qur'an 71:10, ALLAH is mentioning to us what Nuuh (Noah) told his people فَقُلۡتُ ٱسۡتَغۡفِرُواْ رَبَّكُمۡ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ غَفَّارًا  I told them: Ask forgiveness from your Lord, verily, HE is Oft-Forgiving; يُرْسِلِ السَّمَاء عَلَيْكُم مِّدْرَارًا HE will send [rain from] the sky upon you in [continuing] showers. Nuh 71:12 Arabic وَيُمۡدِدۡكُم بِأَمۡوَٰلٍ وَبَنِينَ وَيَجۡعَل لَّكُمۡ جَنَّٰتٍ وَيَجۡعَل لَّكُمۡ أَنۡهَٰرًا  And give you increase in WEALTH and CHILDREN and provide for you GARDENS and provide for you RIVERS. meaning, `if you repent to ALLAH, seek HIS forgiveness and obey HIM, HE will increase your provisions for you and provide you with water from the blessings of the sky. HE will cause the blessings of the earth and crops to grow for you. HE will increase your live stock animals ...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arba'a, 16th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH. (Wednesday, 12th of October 2022). LYING IS FORBIDDEN AND HARAAM EVEN IF IN JOKES. BismilLah.  In Qur'an 9:119,  ALLAH says; يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ ٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَكُونُواْ مَعَ ٱلصَّٰدِقِينَ  O you who have believed, be mindful of ALLAH and be with those who are truthful. Narrated 'Abdullah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: The Prophet (s.a.w) said, "Truthfulness leads to Al-Birr (righteousness) and Al-Birr (righteousness) leads to Paradise. And a man keeps on telling the truth until he becomes a truthful person. Falsehood leads to Al-Fujur (i.e. wickedness - evildoing), and Al-Fujur leads to the (Hell) Fire. And a man keeps on telling lies until he is written as a liar before ALLAH." [Sahih Al-Bukhari, 8/6094. AstaqfirulLah.  Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: ALLAH'S Messenger (S.A.W) said, "The signs of a hypocrite are three: Whenever he speaks, he tells...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Ath-thalaatha, 15th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH. (Tuesday, 11th of October 2022). 3 CATEGORIES OF PEOPLE TO PARADISE. BismilLah.  The people of Paradise are of 3 types as mentioned in the verse below: “ALLAH gave the BOOK, the QURAN) for inheritance to such of Our slaves whom ALLAH chose Then of them are some who wrong their own selves, and of them are some who follow a middle course, and of them are some who are, by ALLAH'S Leave, foremost in good deeds. That (inheritance of the Quran), that is indeed a great grace.” (35:32).  Those who wrong themselves – They have mixed their righteous actions with their evil deeds. As ALLAAH says: “They have mixed a deed that was righteous with another that was evil” (9:102).  From them are those who will enter Jannah out of the Mercy of ALLAAH. Others will enter the Fire for a while and then ALLAAH will exit them from the Fire and enter them into Jannah by way of the Tawheed that they are upon. ...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum al-ithnayn, 14th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH. (Monday, 10th of October 2022). ARE YOU HOPING FOR ALLAH’S BLESSINGS IN YOUR LIFE?. This is a bit long but read over and over for a change of lifestyle. BismilLah.  ALLAH says in Qur'an 13:11, For him [i.e., each one] are successive [angels] before and behind him who protect him by the decree of ALLAH. Indeed, ALLAH will not change the condition of a people until they change what is in themselves. And when ALLAH intends for a people ill, there is no repelling it. And there is not for them besides HIM any patron. This is an important verse which indicates that ALLAH, may HE be exalted, in HIS perfect justice and wisdom does not change the condition of the people from good to bad or from bad to good, from ease to hardship or from hardship to ease, unless they change their condition themselves. So if they are in a state of righteousness and goodness and they change, ALLAH will change things for them ...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Ahad, 13th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH. (Sunday, 9th of October 2022). LESSONS FROM SUURAH An-NAS (QURAN 114) AND A BRIEF ADVISE. BismilLah.  Let's ask, who is the biggest victim of Satan (shaytan)? In the Qur’an, a lot of bad people are mentioned. Pharaoh comes in the second rank after Satan. What are the three names of ALLAH in the Surah? 1- Rabb An-Nas (Master of the people) 2- Malik An-Nas (King of the people) 3- Illah An-Nas (God of people) The Almighty ALLAH (The Most High) has mentioned what (Fir`awn) Pharaoh said about himself in the Qur’an: 1- “I am your most exalted Lord.” (An-Naziat 79:24). So, Pharaoh said: “I am a ‘rabb’.” He (Pharaoh) attributed to himself the biggest waswasah (whisperings) of shaytan which is supposed to be an attribute of ALLAH (The Most Perfect Power). What was the biggest problem of shaytan? What is the biggest thing that he can instill inside a human being? It is arrogance. What is the worst manifestation...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt, 12th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH. (Saturday, 8th of October 2022). THREE SOURCES OF ALL SINS. BismilLah.  Sheikh Ibn Al-Qayyim writes in his book Al-Fawaa’id: People may enter the Hellfire by three doors: the door of doubts which lead to uncertainty in the religion of ALLAH, the door of lusts which lead to preferring desires over obedience to ALLAH, and the door of anger which lead to aggression against HIS creation. The sources of every sin are three matters: arrogance which caused Satan behave the way he did, greed which caused Aadam to be expelled from the garden, and envy which emboldened one of the sons of Aadam against his brother. He who protects himself from these three matters will be protected from evil. Unbelief comes from arrogance, disobedience comes from greed, and transgression and injustice come from envy. Abdullah ibn Mas’ud reported: The Messenger of ALLAH, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “He will not enter H...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat, 11th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH. (Friday, 7th of October 2022). HOW CAN WE FIND PEACE IN OUR HEARTS AND BE SATISFIED IN LIFE?. Bismillah.  As Muslims ALLAH has blessed us with so many ways to succeed in life and gain Jannat by HIS RAHMAH. Some of the means are: Increase dhikr (Remembrance of ALLAH ) as ALLAH says; "who have believed and whose heart have Rest in the remembrance of ALLAH. Verily in the remembrance of ALLAH, do hearts find rest." (Qur'an 13:28). That's by studying the Quran, applying in our way of life and praise ALLAH more through His beautiful attributes.  Increase in sunnah Salaat after perfection of fard Salaat. As ALLAH says; "O you who believe, seek help with steadfastness and prayer. Surely ALLAH is with those who are steadfast." (Qur'an 2:153). Asking forgiveness. ALLAH says; "And I have said: seek forgiveness from your Lord. Verily HE IS ever forgiving." (Qur'an 71:100). I...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Khamis, 10th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH. (Thursday, 6th of October 2022). *_DO WE REALLY APPLY IN OUR DAILY LIFE WHAT WE LEARN FROM ALLAH AND HIS MESSENGER?_*. BismilLah.  Learning knowledge should be for the sake of ALLAH, that's acting upon that knowledge to please ALLAH, otherwise knowledge will have an evil consequence, so we remain between two illnesses, either the illness of ignorance or the illness of knowledge which is not beneficial, but rather harmful. The knowledge which Prophet Muhammad (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) came with is in itself beneficial. However, if a person does not act upon it then it becomes an evil consequence for him, and harmful for him, and perhaps it could harm others.’ What is required from learning knowledge, is acting upon it, and action cannot come except after knowledge. let's make sure that whatever we do in Life as Muslims is based on knowledge of Islam not by our heart desires or hearsay else we w...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arba'a, 9th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH. (Wednesday, 5th of October 2022). RIGHT PROCESS OF MAKING  DUA. BismilLah. Before making any dua, we are thought to first 1. Praise ALLAH (SWT) and to thank HIM and show gratitude to HIS RAHMAH (Blessings and Guidance).  Example is the first 3 verses of suratul Fatihah,  Aayatul Kursy. Laailaaha illaa Anta, Anta Nuurus Samaawaati wal Ard, etc. 2. You then follow that by sending salutations to the Prophet(Salaat Alan Nabi) which is "ALLAH humma salli alaa muhammad wa-alaa aali  muhammad kama sallaita alaa Ibraaheem wa alaa aali Ibraheem inna ka hameedum majeed. ALLAH hummabarik alaa  muhammad wa alaa aali  muhammad kamaa baarakta alaa  Ibraaheem wa alaa aali  Ibraheem inna ka hameedum majeed". 3. Then Make your dua starting from those mentioned in Quran and Sunnah in Arabic like saying Allahummah Ajirnii Minan Naar(Oh ALLAH Protect me from the hell fire). Then you can ...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Ath-thalaatha, 8th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH. (Tuesday, 4th of October 2022). SO CALLED NATURAL DISASTERS SUCH AS CYCLONES, HERICANES, EARTHQUAKES IN RELATION TO ALLAH'S MERCY. BismilLah.  The Arabic word for mankind is Insaan. One of the meanings of Insaan is forgetfulness. Human beings are forgetful, and we need constant reminders as to who we are, why we are here on earth, and to whom we owe a debt of gratitude. All our acts of worship, our Salaah, Zakaat, our fasting and Hajj, are actually reminders of this unique relationship between the Creator and the created, between the Rabb and His abd, the Lord and His servant. We Muslims, if we aspire to become true believers, we have to be constantly aware of our utter reliance on ALLAH: our utter and absolute helplessness in the face of the titanic forces of nature around us.  The Burma cyclone, American hericanes and the Chinese earthquakes etc are timely reminders, if we need reminding,...

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul ahad, 6th day of Rabeeul Awwal 1444AH. (Sunday, 2nd of October 2022). Real Meaning of  "Inna lillaahi wa innaa ilayhi Raaji'uun" BismilLah.  As Muslims we are thought to accept the decisions 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…in fact, you couldn't have had it. Remember….man enters into this world empty handed…and leaves 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 until HE take...
