 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm al-ithnayn, 18th day of Sha’abaan 1446AH, Monday. ARE WE READY FOR THE BLESSED MONTH OF RAMADHAN?. BismilLah. 


ALLAH Azzawajal says in the Qur'an;

"The month of Ramadhan in which was revealed the Quran, a guidance for mankind and clear proofs for the guidance and the criterion (between right and wrong). So whoever of you sights (the crescent on the first night of) the month, he must observe Sawm (fasts) that month, and whoever is ill or on a journey (facing difficulties), the same number [of days which one did not observe Sawm (fasts) must be made up] from other days. ALLAH intends for you ease, and HE does not want to make things difficult for you. (HE wants that you) must complete the same number (of days), and that you must magnify ALLAH [i.e. to say Takbeer (Allaahu Akbar: ALLAH is the Most Great)] for having guided you so that you may be grateful to HIM”[al-Baqarah 2:185].


We've learned from this verse that fasting is Fard upon us all. It's a blessing from ALLAH Azzawajal, not a burden as many see it. We've also learned that whoever is ill or on a journey and cannot fast due to difficulties that you faces on your journey or in your illness, then you can break your fast then fast after Ramadhan to cover the days missed. Same for our sisters going through their monthly cycle or after childbirth. 


Please note that you can not feed the poor to cover for your missed Ramadhan days. Only old age people who cannot fast due to weakness and those with permanent illness such as stomach cancer etc can feed the poor full-day meal equivalent if doctors say no chance of recovery to be able to fast your missed days. If you feed for whatever reason you could not fast, you must still fast the missed days as soon as you can fast again. Fasting in Ramadhan is so superior that even those sisters who could not fast due to their monthly/childbirth cycle have to still fast their missed days, not like daily salaat which ALLAH Azzawajal has spared them not to pay back the missed salaat. ALLAHU AKBAR. To be continued in shaa ALLAH. May ALLAH Azzawajal count us among those who are successful in this coming blessed month. Aameen.

DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum As-Sabt, 5th day of RAJAB (Saturday 29th of February, 2020). LETS BE MINDFUL OF THESE BAD HABITS IN LIFE. BismilLah. Let's remind  ourselves that ALLAH does not love stubborn rejectors of faith, committing sins, and showing ingratitude. ALLAH says: فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ الْكَافِرِينَ Verily, ALLAH does not love the unbelievers. Qur'an 3:32. Why? Bcs their disbelief in ALLAH and HIS Messenger only grant them the Hellfire. And ALLAH says: وَاللَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ كُلَّ كَفَّارٍ أَثِيمٍ ALLAH does not love any ungrateful sinner. Quran 2:276. ALLAH does not love arrogance, pride, boasting to one another, extravagance, and exultation in wrongdoing. ALLAH says: إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ مَن كَانَ مُخْتَالًا فَخُورًا Verily, ALLAH does not love those who are proud and boastful. Surah An-Nisa 4:36. These few are more than enough to aid us to fear these bad acts in our lives. We ask ALLAH to make us among those who are loved by HIM and who are...

FIRST REMINDER. Yaumul ahad, 11th day of Shawwal (Sunday 23rd May 2021). * _ This may not be true story from a friend but very true and sad reality of our modern world _ * . BismilLah. “The house where I lived was about to be seized, just because I could not pay the rent. I tried to get help from all relatives I know but all saying they don't have so I posted my situation on Facebook looking for help, but all I could get is 2 "I like" and zero comment. So I sent 250 messages to my contact list requesting a loan of N5000. Unfortunately only 10 people responded. 6 out of 10 said they could not help me. And only 1 out of 4 who promised to help me and gave me some money less than I needed. The other 3 gave me no excuse and never answered my calls. In the end, I was ejected. I became homeless. I did not have a place to sleep. I walked in the dark looking for options and, unfortunately, a thief stole my empty purse with my ID. He was badly hit by a car in high speed as he fle...

  THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm As-Sabt. 29th day of Rajab, 1445AH (Saturday, 10th February 2024). SOME PROPHETIC TEACHINGS BEFORE GOING TO BED. Bismillah. Before climbing onto bed anytime of the day or night, dust the bed thrice with the corner of any clothe. Clean your teeth with Miswaak if possible or with brush and paste. Be in a state of wuduu. Sleep on the right side of your body facing the Qibla with the right hand underneath the head like a pillow and with the knees slightly bent.  Recite Aayatul Kursy and the last three chapters (Al-Ikhlaas, Al-Falaq, An-Naas) of the Quran, dry blow air to your palms then wipe over your entire body as much as possible, beginning with your head and face and then all parts of the body, do this 3 times if you can or atleast once whenever you are feeling lazy like myself sometimes😊. It's sunnah from the Prophet Muhammed sallallahu alaihi wasallam. Don't forget to offer your witir Salaat before sleeping or offer your two rakaats sha...
