 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDER. Yawm Al-khamis, 22nd day of Muharram 1447AH, Thursday, 17th July 2025

CAUSES OF RAMPANT DIVORCE IN OUR CONTEMPORARY MARRIAGES continues. Bismillah.


On Tuesday's reminder, we reminded each other about the many divorces happening in our communities today, what are the causes?


To start with, there is carelessness and superficiality, in making the choice of the concept in the first place. So many people marry men/women for their wealth/beauty, they fall in love and they marry. Then few months or a year later, they are divorced, because he/she has gotten what he/she wanted. Nothing wrong to choose based on these BUT did he/she have the eemaan/knowledge required to be a husband or wife? 


Unfortunately, many Muslims, young and old, are attracted to superficial looks, which are not that durable. What is durable is the faith in the heart and the Taqwa of ALLAH Azzawajal, Praised and Exalted be HE. If he or she has the looks/wealth and more importantly eemaan/fear of ALLAH Azzawajal then that's what you should be looking at. Today some even marry non Muslims/ so so-called white or foreign women because of money or wanting to travel abroad, where lies your eemaan? Have you forgotten death? Is that man or woman you want to entrust your children with when you die? Are you truly preparing for death and thinking of children to pray for you or your partner to pray for you as sadaqatul Jaariyah?. Think and change for Allah's sake. May ALLAH Azzawajal keep guiding and protecting 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...
