 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum al-ithnayn, 3rd day of Muharram 1444AH. (Monday, 1st of August 2022). HOW DANGEROUS IS OUR TONGUE? BismilLah.  Imam Ahmad may ALLAH be pleased with him mentioned an authentic Hadith in which the Messenger (sallallahu alaihi wa salaam) reported to have said: “A man may be so close to Paradise such that the distance between him and paradise is o­ne derah (an arms length) and he speaks a word and he becomes distant from it further than between East and West” Abu Hurairah (radi Allahu anhu) reported that the Messenger (sallahu alaihi wa salaam) said:“From the good Islam of a man is that he leaves that which does not benefit him.” [Ahmad (4/132) – Tirmidhi, kitab az-zuhd, (7/51). ‘Abullah ibn ‘Amr (radi Allahu anhu) said that the Messenger of ALLAH (sallallahu alaihi wa salaam) said: “Whoever keeps silent is saved.” [Sahih – narrated by Ahmad (2/159 – 177).  May ALLAH protect our tongue đź‘… from any backbiting and slandering. Aameen.
 THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Ahad, 2nd day of Muharram 1444AH. (Sunday, 31st of July 2022). THE GATES OF GOODNESS. BismilLah.  Narrated Mu'adh bin Jabal [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: The Prophet (ALLAH'S Messenger ) said to him: "May I show you the gates of goodness? (They are): (1) Fasting is a screen from Hell. (2) As-Sadaqah (deeds of charity in ALLAH'S Cause) extinguishes (removes) the sins, as the water extinguishes the fire. (3) Standing in Salat (performing of prayers) by a person during the middle (or the last third) part of a night." Then the Prophet (sallalLaahu Alaihi Wasallam) recited: "Their sides forsake their beds." (QURAN 32:16) (Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi) (Tafsir Al-Qurtubi). Search for the tafseer of this beautiful verse.  May ALLAH, AL-GHAFOOR (The Forgiving, The Exceedingly Forgiving) aid us to be able to be steadfast in Fasting, given sadaqah and praying at night. Aameen.
 DAILY ISLAMIC  REMINDER. Yaum As-Sabt, 1st day of Muharram,1444AH (Saturday, 30th July 2022). MUHARRAM IS A BLESSED MONTH TO INCREASE GOOD DEEDS AND AVOIDING BAD DEEDS. BismilLah.  ALLAH'S sacred month of Muharram is a blessed and important month. It is the first month of the Hijri calendar and is one of the four sacred months concerning which ALLAH says; "Verily, the number of months with ALLAH is twelve months (in a year), so it was ordained by ALLAH on the Day when HE created the heavens and the earth; of them, four are sacred. That is the right religion, so wrong not yourselves therein … "Al-Qur'an 9:36. The Prophet (peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him) said: "The year is twelve months of which four are sacred, the three consecutive months of Dhul-Qa'dah, Dhul-Hijjah and Muharram, and Rajab Mudar which comes between Jumadah and Sha'aban." Reported by Al-Bukhari, 2958. Muharram is so called because it is a sacred (muharram) month and to conf...
 DAILY ISLAMIC  REMINDER. Yaumul Jumuat, 30th day of Dhul Hijjah,1443AH (Friday, 29th July 2022). SATAN'S PLOT ON US AND OUR WEAPON AGAINST HIM. BismilLah.  Satan strives hard to seduce humans to make us fall into evil and sin. If a person escapes from the snares of Satan, and satan sees that we have turned to ALLAH, he starts to cast doubts into our heart regarding the sincerity of our Tawbah(Repentance) and magnify our sins in our eyes, making us think that ALLAH will not forgive such sins, because they are too many and too grave. If Satan does not find response, he starts to remind people of their past sins and misdeeds to make us feel sad. ALLAH (Exalted be HE) says: Secret counsels (conspiracies) are only from Shaitân (Satan), in order that he may cause grief to the believers. But he cannot harm them in the least, except as ALLĂ‚H permits. And in ALLĂ‚H let the believers put their trust. (Surah Al-Mujadalah, 58:10). Let's avoid commiting sins and rely solely on ALLAH a...
 DAILY ISLAMIC  REMINDER. Yaum Al-Khamis, 29th day of Dhul Hijjah,1443AH (Thursday, 28th July 2022). APPRECIATE THE LITTLE YOU HAVE IF YOU WANT MORE FROM ALLAH. Bismillah. Our Life as Muslims is a Gift from ALLAH (Azza Wa Jal, The Mighty and the Majestic). We can only polish it with obedience to ALLAH or corrupt it with disobedience. Today before you say an unkind word, Think of someone who can't speak then say Alhamdulillah. Before you complain about the taste of your food to your wife etc, Think of someone who has nothing to eat then say Alhamdulillah. Before you complain about your husband or wife, Think of someone who's crying out to ALLAH for a companion then say Alhamdulillah. Today before you complain about life, Think of someone who died younger than you, healthier than you, wealthier than you etc then say Alhamdulillah. Before you complain about your children, Think of someone who desires children but they're barren. And when you are tired and complain about your j...
 DAILY ISLAMIC  REMINDER. Yaum Arba'a, 28th day of Dhul Hijjah,1443AH (Wednesday, 27th July 2022). ARE YOU SAVING FOR YOUR LIGHT ON JUDGEMENT DAY?. BismilLah.  ALLAH, the Most High, says: “One Day shall you see the believing men and the believing women, how their LIGHT RUNS FORWARD BEFORE THEM and by their right hands: (their greeting will be): “Good News for you this Day, gardens beneath which flow rivers, to dwell therein for forever. This is indeed the highest Achievement” [Al Qur’an 57:12]. On the Day of Judgement it will be dark and we will be asked to cross over a bridge that is thinner than hair and sharper than a razor blade, and there will be no light, so it will be impossible unless we’re given light by ALLAH. This light that ALLAH will give us, the power of the light, will depend on how much light was in our heart in the Dunya. So this light which is in the heart, which is not a physical light, but a spiritual light, will come on the Day of Judgement in a physi...
 DAILY ISLAMIC  REMINDER. Yaum Ath-thalaatha, 27th day of Dhul Hijjah (Tuedday, 26th July 2022). ARE YOU AN ENEMY TO YOURSELF AND ISLAM. BismilLaah. One of The biggest enemies of Islam is the ignorant Muslim whose ignorance leads him/her to intolerance, whose actions distroy the true image of Islam and when the people look at him/her they think that Islam is what he/she is. ALLAH says  O Muhammad, "Shall I inform you of the greatest losers as to their deeds?" "They are those whose effort is lost in worldly life, while they think that they are doing well in work or deeds." (Al-Kahf 18:103--104)" Islam is a complete ways of life. Let's learn those ways from the Qur'an and Sunnah and act purely to please ALLAH.  May ALLAH (Al-Hayyu, Al-Qayyuum, The Living, The Maintainer of Life) grant us the true meaning of Islam and help us to worship and live our ways of life upon it. Aameen.
