 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Al-ithnayn. 26th day of Jumaadal Aakhir, 1445AH (Monday, 8th January 2024). MARRIAGE THROUGH PARENTS OR RELATIVES. BismilLah. 


The sad reality of the weak MUSLIM society today is that most sisters want to meet their men themselves, sometimes even commit haraam activities with the intention to get to know each other before marriage AstaghfirulLah Such non Islamic means of getting married is forbidden in Islam and mostly leads to early divorces. Obedience to ALLAH and HIS Messenger must be our priority whenever we intend to do anything. Next is obedience to our parents. The best for a sister is for her parents to strive and find a good practicing Muslim brother or sister and recommend him or her to their daughter or son and the best is if your parents present such a brother or sister to you, don't just ignore but research about him or her and if you notice he or her is a good practicing muslim please accept and trust me, ALLAH will make the Marriage a successful one because of accepting what your parents propose to you. Never ever ignore your parents because of a man or woman you intend to marry.


Obedience to parents is more important than marriage itself only if they are sincere and does it Islāmically. I'm not talking about so-called force Marriage, such is forbidden, but what do we mean by force marriage? Sadly, nowadays, if a father encourages a daughter to marry the parents' choice, we call it force marriage. Yes, you can refuse your parents' recommendation but with legitimate reason and ensure your parents support your choice before proceeding to accept the proposal from the brother or decide to marry her. If a brother approaches you with marriage proposal, request him to give you some time then whilst you research about him from your friends, you inform your parents and other relatives to help research about him before you accept or reject without any haste in making such important decision in life. 

May ALLAH keep guiding us all and protect us from any satanic influences. 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...

BismilLah.  Assalaamu Alaikum WarahmatulLah to you all. AlhamdulilLah for granting us the opportunity to be part of this blessed day.
