 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt. 7th day of Dhul-Qa'adah, 1444AH (Saturday, 27th May, 2023).

THE MEANING OF QURAN, HADITH QUDSI, AND HADITH AN-NABAWI continues. Bismillah.


Yesterday, we reminded each other about what the Qur’an is. Let's continue on the Dhikr (The Reminder): ALLAH (Al-Fattah, The Granter of Succes) says:

"Verily, I revealed the Dhikr, and verily I will preserve it."

[Noble Quran 15:9]. Alhamdulillah. 


The Prophet's divinely inspired statements, which were recorded by his followers, are generally referred to as Hadiths. For example, the Prophet's companion, 'Umar ibn al-Khattab may ALLAH be pleased with him, reported that the Prophet once said, 'Verily, deeds are (judged) by their intentions. However, in some of his statements, the Prophet (peace be upon him) attributed what he said revealed from ALLAH but not part of the quran; for example, another companion, Abu Hurayrah, reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, " ALLAH, Most High, says, 'I am as My slave thinks of Me and I am with him when he remembers ME. So if he remembers ME to himself, I will remember him to MYSELF, and if he remembers ME in a group, I will remember him in a better group.' 


In order to distinguish this type of hadith from the previous type, it is referred to as hadith qudsi (sacred hadith), and the former referred to as hadith nabawi (prophetic hadith). 


The Quran is not the same as hadith qudsi for a number of reasons. First, the Quran is from ALLAH both in its wording and in its meaning, while in the case of hadith qudsi, its meaning is from ALLAH but its wording was the Prophet's (peace be upon him). 


The Prophet (Peace be upon him) said, "Whoever reads a letter from the book of ALLAH, the Most High, will get a good deed (recorded for him), and each good deed is worth ten times its value. I am not only saying that Alif Laam Meem is a letter, but I am also saying that Alif is a letter, Laam is a letter, and Meem is a letter." So to just recite Alif Laam Meem, you are rewarded with 30 good deeds. AlhamdulilLah, ALLAHU AKBAR. 

May ALLAH keep guiding us all and increase us in beneficial knowledge of the Quran. 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...
