 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum al-ithnayn. 26th day of Ramadhan, 1444AH (Monday, 17th April 2023).

LET'S BE MINDFUL ON OUR TONGUE BismilLah. 


As we approaches the last few days of Ramadan in which Laylatul qadar may appear if not come and gone, It's very important to note that Ramadhan is not about only avoiding eating, sexual relationship etc but equally and more importantly, protecting our fasting by speaking good words or remaining silence throughout the day bcs a single act of backbiting, slandering etc will automatically damage our fasting from achieving any rewards for it. 


Therefore, the servant must be aware! We could lose our rewards for the fasting and prayer from just o­ne gathering. There is no success for us unless we learn how to imprison our tongues from vain talk. 


ALLAH has placed this tongue of ours in prison. It does not come out except when there is a need for it. You will find lots of the time our tongues are not engaged in zikir. Rather, we choose to continue with our vain talk, joking, laughing, backbiting, and slandering. Imam Ahmad mentioned in his “Musnad” o­n the authority of Anas (radi Allahu anhu) who related that the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alaihi wa salaam) said:

“The faith (eeman) of ALLAH’s servant will not be upright until his heart is upright, and his heart will not be upright until his tongue is upright.” [Ahmad-al-Mundhiri (3/234) – al-Iraqi in “Al-Ihya” (8/1539). 


JazaakumulLaahu Khairan for supporting some poor and needy Muslims with your Ramadhan Sadaqah. Many are happy in this blessed month because of your support, and they are making dua for you. Imagine that you helped them for their dunya, but they are helping you for your Aakhira ALLAHU AKBAR, so basically, you helped yourself, AlhamdulilLah. 


May ALLAH have mercy on us all and protect us from speaking ill of anyone regardless of what such person has done. Aameen.

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...

BismilLah.  Assalaamu Alaikum WarahmatulLah to you all. AlhamdulilLah for granting us the opportunity to be part of this blessed day. Today mark the day when ALLAH granted Musah alayhi salaam victory over Fir'awn. Today mark the day ALLAH humiliated HIS worse enemy on earth Fir'awn for his disbelief in ALLAH and claiming he was ALLAH. We are all fasting on this blessed day seeking forgiveness from ALLAH for our sins from last year till date as the Prophet sallalLaahu Alaihi Wasallam recommended.  Those who are unable to fast can still do much to earn lots of rewards especially our sisters and daughters in their monthly cycle. You can recite lots of azkaar and give sadaqah with your intention to seek forgiveness from ALLAH. Please remember today is Friday lets strive to go to Masjid early and also remember to send salutations to our...
