 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Arba'a. 24th day of RAJAB, 1444AH (Wednesday 15th February. 2023). MARRIAGE COMPATIBILITY CHECKS ARE STRICTLY FORBIDDEN AND A MAJOR SIN. BismilLah. 


Is a sad reality that two Muslims today will abandon ALLAH and HIS Messenger to visit soothsayers or evil agents to find out if they are compatible for marriage or not astaghfirullah. So you trust these evil people more than ALLAH and His Messenger? 

I'm asking this because name compatibility checks are done to determine whether the two people will have a good future together or not. But this is very contrary to what ALLAH tells us in Surah Luqman: “Verily the knowledge of the Hour is with HIM (alone). It is HE Who sends down rain, and HE Who knows what is in the wombs. Nor does anyone know what it is that he will earn tomorrow?: Nor does anyone know in what land he is to die?. Verily with ALLAH is full knowledge and HE is acquainted (with all things).” ALLAH basically says only HE knows what happens tomorrow so why do you ignore that and go for a marriage compatibility check?

Islam teaches us that we pray directly to ALLAH and we rely upon only on HIM, knowing that HE alone knows the ‘Ghayb’, the Unseen and the future is unseen and unknown. Fortune tellers and the like have no place in Islam and anyone who claims to know the future is either Insane or communicating with jinn (there is a whole story behind this). Numerology, Name Compatibility checks and fortune telling are absolutely haraam.


There are so many hadiths on this Matter. Imam Nawawi placed an entire chapter called “The Prohibition of Going to Soothsayers, Astrologers and Diviners, and of Seeking Omens.”

One hadith in that chapter is as follows, which clearly indicates the immense gravity and seriousness of the sin:

“If one goes to a soothsayer, asks about something, and believes it, his prayer will not be accepted for forty days.” [Muslim]. Meaning you pray but without earning rewards for the prayers for 40 days SubhaaAllah. Imagine dying in such a state. Hmmmmm. Please seek forgiveness if you are one of those who did that or seeking to do that. May ALLAH keeps guiding us all 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...
