DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm As-Sabt. 3rd day of Dhul-Qa'adah, 1445AH (Saturday 11th May 2024).

CAN A MUSLIM FALL INTO KUFUR AND BECOME A KAAFIR? BismilLah. 


This is a serious and dangerous issue so let's find out from the Quran and monitor our actions so that we don't die as non Muslims without knowing. Remember that sheitan main agenda is to deviate us from our belief into disbelief. kaafir literally means someone who covers. But it is commonly understood to mean disbeliever.

A disbeliever is called a kaafir because he covers the truth in his heart with rejection. In the Quran, ALLAH refers to farmers as kuffar because they cover the seeds with soil so that they grow. ALLAH says in Quran 57:20;

كَمَثَلِ غَيْثٍ أَعْجَبَ الْكُفَّارَ نَبَاتُهُ ثُمَّ يَهِيجُ فَتَرَاهُ مُصْفَرًّا ثُمَّ يَكُونُ حُطَامًا

Like the example of a rain whose [resulting] plant growth pleases the tillers; then it dries and you see it turned yellow; then it becomes [scattered] debris.


The word kaafir is mostly used in the Quran to mean a disbeliever who covers the truth which comes from ALLAH. And it is of two categories: Major and minor kufr (disbelief).

Major Kufr

This form of disbelief is the greatest one because it takes the person out of the fold of Islam and makes him among those who are forever in the Hellfire. May ALLAH save us from that, Aameen!

Some of these forms of kufr are:

To lie on ALLAH 

This can be to deny ALLAH totally, deny the truth that comes from HIM or even to invent lies and affiliate them to ALLAH. ALLAH says in Quran 29:68;

And who is more unjust than one who invents a lie about ALLAH or denies the truth when it has come to him? Is there not in Hell a [sufficient] residence for the disbelievers? Astaqfirullah. To be continued tomorrow in shaa ALLAH. 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...
 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...
