 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Ath-thalaatha. 12th day of Jumaadal Awwal 1444AH (Tuesday 6th December. 2022). WHO ARE  YOUR ROLE MODELS?. BismilLah. 


Let's Look at the way some admire the so-called  "stars"   Footballers , Musicians, Actors and Actresses but SOME of these are the people who do not have modesty, no shyness, no fear of ALLAH (GOD) but very, unfortunately, unfortunately they have become role model for many Muslims. Whatever they say or do is the best.


This reminds me of one hadeeth of our beloved Prophet peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him, who said a time will come......

And a man will be admired for his intelligence, manners  and strength, though indeed he will not have belief equal to a mustard seed in his heart." 

Reference: Sahih al-Bukhari 6497 (To make the Heart Tender (Ar-Riqaq) In-book reference: Book 81, Hadith 86.


The people we see and admire to be intelligent and cool, are the unwise because ALLAH says about those who would be in the hellfire whiles  they are in the fire, they would say.....: "Had we but listened or used our intelligence, we would not have been among the dwellers of the blazing Fire!" The Noble Quran 67:10. Allahu Akbar. 


Please note that the fear of ALLAH is the beginning of wisdom. If we claim to be Muslims and yet our role models are those so-called stars then we still have a long way to go in our belief system. Let's fear ALLAH and study the lifestyle of our beloved Messenger of ALLAH and his companions, they were the best generation of the entire humanity ever lived. 


May ALLAH (Al-Hayyu,  The Living) guide us from any misguidance. Aameen.

 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Jumuat, 9th day of Muharram (Friday 28th August 2020). ACTS THAT CAN EARN US PARADISE. BismilLah.  As Muslims we must always learn and implement actions that can earn us the Pleasure of ALLAH our CREATOR in return for HIS Paradise awaiting HIS sincere servants.  Some of the things that can get us closer to ALLAH are , fasting regularly, Obedience to ALLAH, HIS Messenger, Our Parents etc. following funeral procession of a Muslim, feeding poor people, visiting sick people regularly etc.  Abu Huraira (Radhiallahu 'anhu) reported, that ALLAH'S Messenger (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said: “Who is fasting today?” Abu Bakr (Radhiallahu 'anhu) said: I have. He (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) (again) said: Who has followed a funeral procession today? Abu Bakr (Radhiallahu 'anhu) said: I have. He (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam - the Holy Prophet) again said: Who amongst you has served food to the needy today Abu Bakr (Radhiallahu ...
 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. Yawm Al-khamis, 30th day of Rajab 1446AH, Thursday. 30th Jan. 2025). MEANING OF ALLAH CREATING HUMANS IN HIS OWN IMAGE.  BismilLah. Unfortunately, other faiths have made a serious mistake in trying to compare The CREATOR, ALLAH Azzawajal with HIS Creation human beings in physical appearance, and that's blasphemy and serious error  Sheikh AbuAmina, in one of his articles, explained that, in Islam, we believe that all people have been created in the “image” of ALLAH Azzawajal. But what does this mean? ALLAH Azzawajal is the creator of everything, including all people. That people are in the “image of ALLAH Azzawajal” means they are in the form that HE, ALLAH Azzawajal has chosen and honored for them, not that they resemble ALLAH Azzawajal in physical appearance or share in the Divine Essence. Just as we say a righteous person is the “servant of ALLAH” and a mosque is the “house of ALLAH” as a way to honor them, likewise is it an added dignity for pe...
