 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arba'a. 27th day of RabeeulAwwal, 1445AH (Thursday, 12th October, 2023). A MUSLIMS WAY OF LIFE. BismilLah.


If you accept to be a Muslim and thus having accepted ALLAH as our CREATOR and Muhammad (sallallahu alaiyhi wassallam) as HIS Messenger, the next and ultimate step is to please our LORD and thus Obtain HIS MERCY and LOVE.


The question arises as to how to please our Lord, so that HE will Love us?. Is it by doing what our heart says Or Is it by using our intellect? Or is it by mysticism and meditation Or is it to ask a wise man. Or is it to consult a manual? Etc. 


The answer is very clear to an intelligent person. Everything has a manual even a simple system comes with a manual to show the purchaser how to best make use of it and how to look after it?


So why should the human being with such a complex physiological and psychological make up not come with a manual? In fact we do come with a manual. Our manual is the Quran and Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alaiyhi wassallam) is the teacher of this manual and the Swahaaba (companions) are the best students of the teachings to follow.


ALLAH says: Indeed ALLAH conferred a great favour on the believers when HE sent among them a Messenger (Muhammad S.A.W) from among themselves, reciting unto them HIS Verses (the Quran), and purifying them (from sins by their following him), and instructing them (in) the Book (the Quran) and Al­Hikmah [the wisdom and the Sunnah of the Prophet S.A.W (i.e. his legal ways, statements, acts of worship, etc.)], while before that they had been in manifest error (3:164). Could any form of information be clearer than this? Let's study our deen and implement the teachings in our life if indeed we want to succeed. 


May ALLAH grant us the wisdom to understand ourselves and our purpose of life. 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...
