 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Al-Khamis. 16th day of Jumaadal Awwal, 1445AH (Thursday, 30th November, 2023). CURE for DEPRESSION continues. Bismillah. Islam is a complete way of life and offers a real solution to every problem. Here are some steps one may take to cure depression and laziness, in shaa ALLAH. Love of ALLAH: The human heart is the center of emotions and feelings.   It dictates what it desires and works in collaboration with mind to act as a platform of good or evil.  The human heart also has hidden treasures of matchless jewels. If found and applied, we can become beloved of ALLAH. Loving ALLAH means Obeying HIM fully. We love someone due to beauty and excellence, perfectness in knowledge and generosity, loving and caring treatment for us.  If we look around and think about the blessings Almighty ALLAH is showering on us, we will love HIM by Obeying HIS commands. When we truly love ALLAH and obey Him, our heart will definitely find peace and w...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Arba'a. 15th day of Jumaadal Awwal, 1445AH (Wednesday, 29th November, 2023). CURE for DEPRESSION. Bismillah.  Brothers and sisters in Islam, let's remind each other that Paradise is a reality with rivers of milk and honey, palaces of gold and silver, delicious food and fruits, beautiful spouse, always happy, always young, always healthy, a great kingdom for ever and ever for an unending enjoyment and bliss. Lets Compete with each other to strengthen our faith and excel in good deeds and hasten to seize every fleeting moment and turn into gold by a productive activity; lets sow seeds today to reap a rich harvest tomorrow and rush at the available opportunity before it is lost for good.  Only ALLAH knows what is beneficial for us.  HE is All Wise, All Merciful.  ALLAH loves us more than seventy mothers do to their new born bodies combined. Allahu Akbar. Can you even imagine that? Difficulties and trials can become a means of rais...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Ath-thalaatha. 14th day of Jumaadal Awwal, 1445AH (Tuesday, 28th November, 2023). Purification of Our Souls. BismilLah. The command to purify our hearts from sins was an essential Islamic teaching ever since the early stages of the revelation in Macca. This is known as “purification of the soul” (tazkiyyatun-nafs).  ALLAH says: HE has succeeded who purifies the soul, and he has failed who corrupts the soul. Surah Ash-Shams 91:9-10. Also ALLAH says: A day when there will be no benefit in wealth or children, but only in he who comes  to ALLAH with a pure heart. Surah Ash-Shu’ara 26:88-89.  We learn from these verses that our success in the Hereafter depends upon the purification of our hearts in this life. We must purify our hearts from spiritual sins such as greed, malice, envy, arrogance, and worldliness, fornication, stealing. In their place, we must adorn the heart with spiritual virtues such as learning the Quran and applying in ...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm al-ithnayn. 13th day of Jumaadal Awwal, 1445AH (Monday, 27th November, 2023). BE MORE HOPEFUL DURING DIFFICULTIES. BismilLah. As Muslims, we must study our Deen (religion) and apply the teachings in our daily ways of life. How can a Muslim be worried to the extent of giving up in life after all the Promises of ALLAH and HIS Messenger? This life on earth is a life journey to Paradise for all Muslims who believe and practice and in every journey there are obstacles isn't it? Imagine you walking from one village to the city for a very important reason, your focus is the destination, not the problems you face on your way isn't it? We all want to enter PARADISE and the journey may be difficult as ALLAH promised to test us in Quran 2:155.  ALLAH also promised a way out of any difficulties, read Quran 65:2-3. So why are you mourning? Don't you trust your lord who feeds the birds, insects etc? ALLAH even says through difficulties comes ease so why...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm As-Sabt. 12th day of Jumaadal Awwal, 1445AH (Sunday, 26th November, 2023).  DO NOT ENVY SOMEONE'S SUCCESS. BismilLaah.  If we envy someone and try to disgrace them, ALLAH will humiliate us. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Whoever defends the honor of his brother (fellow muslim), then ALLAH will protect his face from the Hellfire on the Day of Resurrection.”Sunan At-Tirmidhi 1931.  The Messenger of ALLAH, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Do not rejoice over your brother’s misfortune, lest ALLAH have mercy upon him and subject you to trials. ‘Sunan At-Tirmidhi 2506. Please remember the 3 white days for fasting starts tomorrow Monday meaning we have 4 golden days to fast from Monday to Thursday. Please be part of it for a glorious rewards from ALLAH.  We ask ALLAH to forgive our evil deeds, protect us from any satanic influences and ease the suffering of our brothers and sisters worldwide. Aameen. ...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm As-Sabt. 11th day of Jumaadal Awwal, 1445AH (Saturday, 25th November, 2023). LET’S FIX OUR LIFE BY PLACING ALLAH, HIS MESSENGER AND THE QUR'AN IN THE RIGHT PLACE IN OUR HEART.  BismilLah This is a true story to boost our eemaan/faith in our Creator ALLAH.  An Imam was struggling to prepare his Friday sermon and didn't want to be disturbed by his five year old daughter, so he removed a map of the world from his study room, tore it into pieces and gave it to her to assemble where each continent or country should be as it was on the map with the promise that he would answer all her questions and play with her when she was done. He knew she would never be able to fix it. To his amazement, in less than five minutes, she returned to him in his room with the map in perfect shape, every continent and every country in its place. The surprised father asked, ''Honey, you don't know anything about geography, so how did you fix the world map so...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Al-Khamis. 9th day of Jumaadal Awwal, 1445AH (Thursday, 23rd November, 2023). WHEN ALLAH DECIDE WHO ELSE CAN DECIDE OTHERWISE. BismilLah.  ALLAH says in the Holy Quran to the nearest meaning; To ALLAH belongs the dominion of the hevens and the earth; HE creates what HE wills. HE gives to whom HE wills female [children], and HE gives to whom HE wills males. Or gives in mix of males and females, and HE renders whom HE wills barren. Indeed, HE is Knowing and Competent. Ash-Shura 42:49/50. So people are divided into four categories when it comes to blessings with children: some are given daughters, some are given sons, some are given both sons and daughters, and some are not given either sons or daughters, but they are rendered barren, with no offspring. Only ALLAH knows who deserves to be in which of these categories. Why using evil means to conceive?  Similarly to HIS CREATION, HE created four categories of human beings. Some without fathe...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Ath-thalaatha. 7th day of Jumaadal Awwal, 1445AH (Tuesday, 21st November, 2023). LETS BE STEADFAST IN OUR OBEDIENCE TO ALLAH FOR PARADISE WILL BE AN ULTIMATE REWARDS. BismilLah.  ALLAH have promised us in the Quran that those of us who obey HIS rules and worship HIM sincerely will be driven to Paradise in groups with Prophet Mohammed  sallalLaahu Alaihi Wasallam as our imam in front till we get to the gate of paradise and its keepers say, "Peace be upon you; you have become pure; so enter it to abide eternally therein. Az-Zumar 39:73. Allahu Akbar.  In Sahih Muslim, The Messenger of ALLAH is reported to have said: أَنَا أَوَّلُ شَفِيعٍ فِي الْجَنَّة I will be the first intercessor to PARADISE  وَأَنَا أَوَّلُ مَنْ يَقْرَعُ بَابَ الْجَنَّة And I will be the first one to knock at the gates of Paradise. I will come to the gate of Paradise on the Day of Resurrection and will ask for it to be opened. The gatekeeper will say, "Who ar...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm al-ithnayn. 6th day of Jumaadal Awwal, 1445AH (Monday, 20th November, 2023). LET'S BE REALISTIC IN SERVING OUR LORD, ALLAH. BismilLah.  We are  all hoping for Paradise and for ALLAH grant us our wish or request but most of us are not working for it. How do you expect to get PARADISE when you haven't worked for it on Earth? That's like expecting to pass an exam you never took a class for. We live in a time where people leave out food in fear of becoming overweight, but cannot leave out sins in  fear of ALLAH! For a believer. you may be penniless, homeless, unemployed, sick and feel like you have nothing. But you have the One thing that money can't buy: "ALLAH". ALLAH knows what you want, what you need, what you deserve, at what time & what place, trust HIM & HIS decisions is best for HIS creation, HE knows while you don't. Put your full trust on HIM without any time frame as ALLAH'S time is the best so keep mak...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawmul Ahad. 5th day of Jumaadal Awwal, 1445AH (Sunday, 19th November, 2023). DO YOU TRULY TRUST IN ALLAH? BismilLah.  AlhamdulilLah for granting us another day. As Muslims, its very important that we trust ALLAH fully no BUT no IF. If you truly trust in ALLAH and act according to HIS instructions and promises, trust me HE is sufficient for HIS servants who put their trust in HIM. We all trust ALLAH with our mouth by saying Tawakkaltu AllalLah but our actions are contrary to our sayings.  We are all striving day and night for cash right? But do we invest with ALLAH with our money or we entrust our monies with the kuffar and Sheitan? Lotto, betting, treasure bills with interest based banks etc are all investment with sheitan.  ALLAH says;  “The example of those who spend their wealth in the way of ALLAH is like a seed [of grain] which grows seven spikes; in each spike is a hundred grains. And ALLAH multiplies [HIS reward] for whom HE...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm As-Sabt. 4th day of Jumaadal Awwal, 1445AH (Saturday, 18th November, 2023). PROTECTION OF OUR EEMAAN (Faith). BismilLah.  Scholars of Islaam based on Quran, Sunnah and the consensus of all scholars have  said that: “Belief is a statement of the tongue, sincerity of the heart and actions of the limbs. It increases with the increase of good deeds and decreases due to decreases in good deeds. So it will increase and decrease due to that (one’s deeds). Faith is not complete by the statement of the tongue except with actions. Both statements of the tongue and actions are not complete except with intention (purely for ALLAH'S sake). Statement of the tongue, actions and intentions are not complete unless they are in accordance with the Quran and sunnah.” This is a simple formula but that's the foundation of good faith. Let's strive to protect our EEMAAN by applying these simple formula in our daily ways of life. Don't just follow ignorantly, ...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawmul Jumuat. 3rd day of Jumaadal Awwal, 1445AH (Friday, 17th November, 2023). LET'S_ STRIVE TO DEFEAT OUR BAD HEART DESIRES. BismilLah.  As Muslims, it's important we keep reminding each other about our ways of life, as ALLAH says, reminding only benefit believers. My reminder this morning to you and to myself is to remember that this earth is a temporal place of abode; we will all die soon, no doubt about that. Over 100 died yesterday, over 100 died this morning, and over 100 may die before you finish reading this reminder, and it's a FACT. It could be you or me so why not live our life like a traveller who is resting under a tree as our belovedMessenger of ALLAH sallalLaahu Alaihi Wasallam explained, do you think he will be spending his entire time thinking about something else other than his journey ahead? Let's focus on our obedience to ALLAH. Our desires, which aid us to fornicate, steal, envy, backbite, etc. We will die and leave th...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Al-Khamis. 2nd day of Jumaadal Awwal, 1445AH (Thursday, 16th November, 2023). PRAYING FOR OUR ENEMIES. BismilLah.  It was the practice of the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaiyhi wassallam to supplicate and pray to ALLAH to guide his enemies of Islam and to benefit them in the Hereafter. Islam teaches us to love for others what we love for ourselves. Each one of us wants to be guided and, therefore, we should ask ALLAH to guide others even if they are unbelievers, sinners, or oppressors. Islam is a beautiful religion and only teaches what's right.  We should supplicate for guidance and forgiveness for people in general. It is the essence of ALLAH to be forgiving and mericful, and the Angels roam the earth seeking forgiveness for everyone upon it. By expressing mercy and forgiveness in our supplications, we fulfill ALLAH’s plan for the creation. ALLAH says: وَالْمَلَائِكَةُ يُسَبِّحُونَ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّهِمْ وَيَسْتَغْفِرُونَ لِمَن فِي الْأَر...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Arba'a. 1st day of Jumaadal Awwal, 1445AH (Wednesday, 15th November, 2023). ISLAM IS A MERCY FOR THE ENTIRE CREATION, EVEN TO ENEMIES OF ISLAM. BismilLah.  ISLAM teaches us to be merciful to the entire creation, to Muslims and non-Muslims, to friends and enemies and even to the animals, trees, rocks etc. Mercy (Raḥmah) in Islam has a very wide meaning that includes kindness, compassion, love, tolerance, patience with people, and to treat others the way we would love to be treated. This Islamic value is at the core of the prophetic message and meaning of faith, just as it was in all of the revealed religions before Islam. Every Muslim needs to strive to be an agent of mercy on earth for all human beings and creatures. ALLAH says to the nearest meaning: وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَاكَ إِلَّا رَحْمَةً لِّلْعَالَمِينَ I have not sent you except as mercy to the worlds. Qur'an 21:107. Which means mercy to everything on earth.  ALLAH intends for the mercy...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Ath-thalaatha. 30th day of Rabeeu ath-thaani, 1445AH (Tuesday, 14th November, 2023). A KEY INGREDIENT TOWARDS A SUCCESSFUL MARRIAGE. BismilLah.   I always remind each other that Islam is a complete ways of life. We have signed a covenant with ALLAH to live in this world by HIS rules and in return, HE promised to reward our efforts with Paradise. As Muslims, we must focus on this basic  fact and ensure we strive to please ALLAH in all we do through patience and perseverance and through the teachings and ways our beloved Messenger of ALLAH sallallahu alaihi wasallam.  Marriage is a very important covenant between us and ALLAH. Both couple must go into the marriage with one very important reason which is to earn Paradise base on how we handle each other. When we focus on pleasing ALLAH then we may ignore each others errors in the marriage and ensure our enemy (Satan), does not get any space into the marriage.  One most import...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm al-ithnayn. 29th day of Rabeeu ath-thaani, 1445AH (Monday, 13th November, 2023). ENDURING GRIEF AND HARDSHIP IN LIFE AS MUSLIMS. BismilLaah. In Qur'an chapter 3, verses 155-157, Allah subhanallahu ta’ala reminds us: "Verily, ALLAH will test you with something of fear and hunger; some loss in goods or lives or the fruits (of your toil) but give glad tidings to those who patiently persevere. Who say when afflicted with calamity: "Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhir raji-oon" "To ALLAH we belong and to HIM is our return." They are those on whom (descend) blessings from ALLAH and Mercy and they are the ones that receive guidance." From these verses we can see that in a Muslim’s life, hardship and suffering should never come as a complete surprise. In fact, ALLAH promises us some hardship as a certainty, somewhere during our lifetime. It is a test of our eeman, our faith in ALLAH, and we should not despair, because there are less...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawmul Ahad. 28th day of Rabeeu ath-thaani, 1445AH (Sunday, 12th November, 2023). ALLAH IS THE BEST OF PLANNERS. BismilLah.  Many Muslims are so worried as to why some of our brothers and sisters are suffering from the hands of the kuffar and it seems to them ALLAH is quite Astaqfirullah. Please remember that ALLAH has given us our choice to act good or bad and you choose badness, your time will come for ALLAH to deal with you.  ALLAH says in Qur'an  3:54 وَمَكَرُواْ وَمَكَرَ ٱللَّهُۖ وَٱللَّهُ خَيۡرُ ٱلۡمَٰكِرِينَ  And they [i.e., the disbelievers] planned, but ALLAH planned. And ALLAH is certainly the best of planners. ALLAH states that the Children of Israel tried to kill `Eesa alaihi salaam by conspiring to defame him and crucify him. They complained about him to the king who was a disbeliever. They claimed that Eesa A.S was a man who misguided people, discouraged them from obeying the king, caused division, and separated betwee...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm As-Sabt. 27th day of Rabeeu ath-thaani, 1445AH (Saturday, 11th November, 2023). KILLING A HUMAN BEING UNJUSTLY IS FORBIDDEN.  BismilLah.  It is well known that the life of a human being especially a Muslim is sacred and must be safeguarded in all respects. Today we beat and kill someone with claim of been a thief etc. Astaqfirullah. Allow the law to deal with them don't be part of killing anyone even if yes he killed someone. Take him to the police.  Whoever unjustly kills a single believer on purpose will enter Hellfire and reside there forever. ALLAH says: Whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell wherein he will abide eternally and ALLAH has become angry with him and has cursed him and has prepared for him a great punishment. Surat An-Nisa 4:93. Similarly, the lives of all peaceful non-Muslims are protected and whoever kills one of them wrongfully will never enter Paradise. Abdullah ibn Amr reported: The Mess...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawmul Jumuat. 26th day of Rabeeu ath-thaani, 1445AH (Friday, 10th November, 2023). OPPRESSION IS FORBIDDEN IN ISLAM. BismilLah.  AlhamdulilLah for blessing us to be among those who are part of this blessed day of the week. Some slept yesterday without any food or home. Its a sad reality that we live in a world where the oppressed are continuously being oppressed without any end and justice has become a word that we can only ever say, but never physically or successfully see come to pass for us to witness . From Palestinians fighting for their rights, lands, and homes, to young women being denied the right to wear their hijabs, oppression can come in many forms. And whether that oppression is coming from a Muslim or a non-Muslim, it is heartbreaking and anger-inducing for everyone who witnesses that oppression. We feel the unfairness when our fellow Muslim brothers and sisters continue to be oppressed while the world stays quiet. We witness the pr...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Al-Khamis. 25th day of Rabeeu ath-thaani, 1445AH (Thursday, 9th November, 2023). *_FIR'AWN COMMITTED WORSE ATROCITIES BUT ALLAH SAID IT WAS A GREAT TRIAL_*. BismilLah.  AlhamdulilLah for blessing us to be part of this blessed day. I hope majority are fasting. At this sad reality of our fellow Muslims suffering across the globe, lets remind each other about what ALLAH says during similar times in the past.  ALLAH says in Qur'an 2:49 وَإِذْ نَجَّيْنَٰكُم مِّنْ ءَالِ فِرْعَوْنَ يَسُومُونَكُمْ سُوٓءَ ٱلْعَذَابِ يُذَبِّحُونَ أَبْنَآءَكُمْ وَيَسْتَحْيُونَ نِسَآءَكُمْۚ وَفِى ذَٰلِكُم بَلَآءٌ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ عَظِيمٌ  And [recall] or remember when ALLAH saved you [i.e., your forefathers] from the people of Pharaoh, who afflicted you with the worst torment, slaughtering your [newborn] sons and keeping your females alive. And in that was a great trial from your Lord. Allahu Akbar.  Ibn Jarir may ALLAH be  pleased with him  co...
THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Arba'a. 24th day of Rabeeu ath-thaani, 1445AH (Wednesday, 8th November, 2023). QUESTION: I smoke, fornicate, Gamble, beting etc, I find it difficult if not impossible to fast and stop these evil actions. I need advice please. BismilLah.  In response to this question, Lets note that One of the purposes of the practice of fasting in Islam is to help us overcome our destructive habits and create positive and life-enhancing habits and thus prepare us to face the challenges of life. Therefore, if you were to fast and turn to ALLAH for help, you can beat your fornication and other bad habits. Many people have overcome such unhealthy habits through fasting; so many of them have quit smoking, fornication etc expecially during the month of Ramadhan after having addicted to it for ten to twenty years or even more; they have never turned back. Even without Ramadhan, we have weekly fastings of Monday's and Thursdays and and 13th, 14th and 15th of each Isla...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Ath-thalaatha. 23rd day of Rabeeu ath-thaani, 1445AH (Tuesday, 7th November, 2023). IS THE WIFE ENTITLED TO A MONTHLY ALLOWANCE FROM THE HUSBAND?. BismilLah.  Scholars​ based on Qur'an and sunnah has explained that What the husband must do is spend on his wife on a reasonable basis, which includes the costs of accommodation, food, drink, clothing, and includes medical treatment and medicine etc.  With regard to food, drink and clothing, that is because ALLAH, may HE be exalted, says: “but the father of the child shall bear the cost of the mother’s food and clothing on a reasonable basis” [al-Baqarah 2:233]. The Prophet (blessings and peace of ALLAH be upon him) said: “Their rights over you are that you should provide for them and clothe them on a reasonable basis.”Narrated by Muslim (1218).  Our wives are not our slaves, they are our companions on earth and in Paradise be-iznilLah (ALLAH willing). Even slaves had rights in Islam. We...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Al-ithnayn. 22nd day of Rabeeu ath-thaani, 1445AH (Monday, 6th November, 2023). SMILING AND POLITENESS IN SPEECH IS SADAQA. BismilLah. ALLAH, the Exalted, says: "And lower your wings for the believers (be courteous to the fellow-believers).'' (15:88) "And had you been severe and harsh-hearted, they would have broken away from about you.'' (3:159). 693. Sheikh Adi bin Hatim (May ALLAH be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of ALLAH (PBUH) said, "Guard yourselves against the Fire (of Hell) even if it be only with half a date-fruit (given in charity); and if you cannot afford even that, you should at least say a good word.'' [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]. The prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam said, Smiling is sadaqah.  The above highlights the point that Sadaqah has great benefits and even in its minimum scope and quantity of it can ensure our safety against Hell-fire. We are told that if we do not have even a...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. YawmulAhad. 21st day of Rabeeu ath-thaani, 1445AH (Sunday, 5th November, 2023). TRUE OR FALSE SISTER?. Bismillah. Some of our so called Modern Ladies of nowadays would never seize to amuse me. They hold the most expensive phones and because they know the worth of those phones, they are well covered with a phone-cover. Check the screen, it's well guarded with a screen guard.  Check even the keys, they are well protected with a keypad protector. But ironically, these ladies walk all over the streets with their bodies well exposed. WHY????... It's either the phones are worth more than your bodies or you are yet to recognize your worth as a woman. So I wish to know; which one is more valuable, The phones, ipads, tabs or your body? Your naked body can only attract irresponsible guys who will use your body to satisfy their sexual needs (hit and run) But it will not attract a husband or real man out there. Take it or leave it, that's the bitter truth ...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm As-Sabt. 20th day of Rabeeu ath-thaani, 1445AH (Saturday, 4th November, 2023). SELLING ALCOHOL AND OTHER HARAAM ITEMS TO NON-MUSLIMS IS FORBIDDEN AND SINFUL. BismilLah.  The Islamic ruling on this topic is that; Selling Alcohol, pork and whatever is haraam for us is haraam whether it is sold to a Muslims or non Muslims. The evidence for that is as follows:   The Messenger (peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him) taught us an important principle when he said: “When ALLAH forbids a thing, HE (also) forbids its price.” Narrated by Abu Dawood, 3488; classed as saheeh by Shaykh al-Albaani in Ghaayat al-Maraam, 318.  It was narrated from Jaabir ibn ‘Abd-Allaah (may ALLAH be pleased with him) that he heard the Messenger of ALLAH (peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him) say when he was in Makkah at the time of the Conquest: “ALLAH and HIS Messenger have forbidden the sale of alcohol, dead meat, pork and idols.” It was said: “O Mess...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawmul Jumuat. 19th day of Rabeeu ath-thaani, 1445AH (Friday, 3rd November, 2023). SUSPICION, SPYING AND BACKBITING. BismilLah.  AlhamdulilLah for guiding us and blessing us to be among those witnessing this blessed day of the week. May ALLAH accept our little efforts to please HIM.  ALLAH says clearly in Qur'an 49:12 that if you claim to be a Muslim then  "Avoid suspicion; indeed suspicions are sins. And spy not, neither backbite one another. Quran 49:12. This verse alone contains 3 major sins and each lead to one another. When you start suspecting it leads to spying which then leads to backbiting. In most cases especially in marriage all these 3 warnings comes when you start checking on your partners phone that's why it's forbidden.  Narrated Abu Huraira: ALLAH’S Apostle said, "Beware of suspicion, for it is the worst of false tales and don't look for the other's faults and don't spy and don't hate each other, and do...
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Al-Khamis. 18th day of Rabeeu ath-thaani, 1445AH (Thursday, 2nd November, 2023). HOW DO WE DISCOVER ALLAH'S PLAN FOR US? WHERE DO WE FIND IT? HOW DO WE REALIZE IT IN OUR LIVES?. Bismillah. If you are trying to follow ALLAH'S guidance, but you find yourself confronted by obstacles and hardship, don’t despair. The hardship is probably a sign that you are on the right path. Consider our Prophets (may ALLAH bless them all) who faced tremendous obstacles: The Prophet Ibrahim (alayhis-salam, peace be upon him) was disowned by his family and thrown by his people into a blazing fire; ALLAH rescued him from that, and made him the father of two nations Through Ismaaael and Ishaaq. ALLAH inspired the mother of the baby Musah (as) and told the mother to place her infant into a chest and send it floating down the River Nile. That must have been an enormously difficult plan to follow, but she trusted her Lord, with the result that an entire people were even...
