 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm athalaatha, 20th day of Muharram 1447AH, Tuesday, 15th July 2025.

CAUSES OF RAMPANT DIVORCE IN OUR CONTEMPORARY MARRIAGES. Bismillah.


My dear brothers and sisters in Islam, the subject which I would like to share with you today has been a matter of grave concern to all Muslims, when I look at the Muslim Ummah in the world today and try to project upon the future, it get me frustrated as to the direction our offsprings coming will be going through.


As a husband, your wife MUST be your best friend, your companion in life, your sister in deen and regularly pray that ALLAH Azzawajal bless your daughters and sons to have a good husband better than us and a good wife better than the mother. Ask yourself how your relationship with your wife or husband that your children are learning from. 


Let's note that a strong community is made of its’ units, and the unit of a strong community is a strong family but I have been appalled at the rate of divorce among Muslims today. Moreover, I realise that there is so much confusion about the issue of divorce, amongst lay Muslims, and even amongst Islamic Leadership in many Islamic Centres. It's now like a game where men and women jump from one men/women to the other as if we are not accountable for it when we die. Let's fear ALLAH Azzawajal because marriage is a trust from ALLAH Azzawajal and we will be answerable to ALLAH for our actions in our marriages. 


I have realised that there are lots of causes which can be pointed at, which have contributed to this rising incidence of divorce amongst Muslims but in Shaa ALLAH, we will remind each other about the most important cause in tomorrow's reminder. To be continued.......


We ask ALLAH Azzawajal to protect us from any satanic influences that can lead us to divorcing our loved ones. 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...
