 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Al-Khamis. 5th day of Dhul-Qa'adah, 1444AH (Thursday, 25th May, 2023). WE HAVE THE FREE WILL TO CHOOSE PARADISE OR HELL FOR OURSELVES, LET'S MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE. BismilLah. 


ALLAH says in Qur'an 79:34-41

فَإِذَا جَاءتِ الطَّامَّةُ الْكُبْرَى

But when there comes the Great Catastrophe. This refers to the Day of Judgement. It has been called this because it will overcome every matter. It will be frightful and horrifying.

As ALLAH says,

وَالسَّاعَةُ أَدْهَى وَأَمَرُّ

And the Hour will be more grievous and more bitter. (54:46).

يَوۡمَ يَتَذَكَّرُ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ مَا سَعَىٰ 

The Day when man shall remember what he strove for. Meaning, at that time, the Son of Adam will reflect upon all of his deeds, both the good and the evil.

As ALLAH says in another verse,

يَوْمَيِذٍ يَتَذَكَّرُ الاِنسَـنُ وَأَنَّى لَهُ الذِّكْرَى

On the Day will man remember, but how will that remembrance avail him. (89:23).

وَبُرِّزَتِ ٱلۡجَحِيمُ لِمَن يَرَىٰ 

And Hell shall be made apparent for whoever sees. Meaning, it will become apparent for the onlookers, so the people will see it with their own eyes.

فَأَمَّا مَن طَغَىٰ 

Then, for him, who transgressed,

meaning, who rebels and behaves arrogantly.

وَءَاثَرَ ٱلۡحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنۡيَا 

And preferred the life of this world,

meaning, he gives it precedence over the matters of his religion and his hereafter.

فَإِنَّ ٱلۡجَحِيمَ هِىَ ٱلۡمَأۡوَىٰ 

Verily, his abode will be the Hell;

meaning his final destination will be Hell, his food will be from the tree of Zaqqum, and his drink will be from Hamim.

وَأَمَّا مَنۡ خَافَ مَقَامَ رَبِّهِۦ وَنَهَى ٱلنَّفۡسَ عَنِ ٱلۡهَوَىٰ 

But as for him, who feared standing before his LORD and forbade himself from desire.

meaning, he fears the standing before ALLAH, he fears ALLAH'S judgement of him, he prevents his soul from following its desires, and he compels it to obey its Master.

فَإِنَّ ٱلۡجَنَّةَ هِىَ ٱلۡمَأۡوَىٰ 

Verily Paradise will be his abode.

meaning, his final abode, his destination, and his place of return will be the spacious Paradise. ALLAHU AKBAR. May ALLAH aid us in making the right choice towards Paradise. 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...
  THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm As-Sabt. 29th day of Rajab, 1445AH (Saturday, 10th February 2024). SOME PROPHETIC TEACHINGS BEFORE GOING TO BED. Bismillah. 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. Sleep on the right side of your body facing the Qibla with the right hand underneath the head like a pillow and with the knees slightly bent.  Recite Aayatul Kursy and the last three chapters (Al-Ikhlaas, Al-Falaq, An-Naas) of the Quran, dry blow air to your palms then wipe over your entire body as much as possible, beginning with your head and face and then all parts of the body, do this 3 times if you can or atleast once whenever you are feeling lazy like myself sometimes😊. 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...
