ALONE FOR HIM

In the Name of Allāh. Indeed, worship is a comprehensive term that includes all actions (such as praying, fasting, supplicating, giving charity, calling to the Religion of Allāh, etc.) that are pleased by Allāh and done solely for Him in all sincerity (i.e. establishing that He Alone deserves it since He is our Lord) with…

SHE EVER SERVED HIM

In the Name of Allāh. The slave trade was customary at that time. Many boys and girls were captured and taken to the slave market for the rich to buy. Some ended up in bad hands, while a few others, fortunately, ended up in the hands of caring people. One such person was an Abyssinian…

A VIRUS CALLED HYPOCRISY

In the Name of Allāh. This morning, let me remind you about an awful virus called hypocrisy. It strikes the heart and calls on Allāh’s Wrath. Indeed, hypocrisy is to announce goodness and, afterward, hide evil and betrayal. The biggest hypocrisy (Nifaq i’tiqādi) is when a person pretends to believe in Allāh, His Angels, Books…

MAKE IT LOOSEN!

In the Name of Allah. Isn’t it nauseating and appalling to see Muslim women nakedly dressed in the House of Allah? Friday is not an exclusion from other days. They wear skimpy and tight dresses. Ordinarily, a Muslim woman should pray in her room. However, she may equally pray in the Masjid with due permission…

HEARS AND SEES NOT

In the Name of Allah. Truly, disbelief is inanity. Let’s chew over the ease of correctly knowing Islam. Then, why are some people still heedless? Why do they display deafness and dumbness to the truth when they may physiologically not be deaf or dumb? Why should one worship other than Allah Who created one? Allah…

A COURIER OF THE LETTERS

In the Name of Allah. The Prophet (ﷺ) assembled his companions and addressed them, saying: “I want to send some of you to the rulers of foreign lands but don’t dispute with me as the Israelites disputed with ‘Eesa (Jesus), the son of Maryam.”  “O Messenger of Allah, we shall carry out whatever you wish,” they…

MAKE IT SOUND!

In the Name of Allāh. The Supremacy of Allāh over us is also evident in the fact that our deepest thoughts are known to Him. One may not know another person’s intention, but Allāh knows all our thoughts and plans – previous, present, and future (before we plan it). He says (in Sūrah An-Naḥl [16]…

HEARTS ARE SEALED

In the Name of Allāh. I read a post this morning on research conducted to show that most of the countries applying Islāmic Principles have their citizens not traditionally Muslims. It also discusses how worse the condition of the Muslims is vis-à-vis moral vices. Isn’t it flummoxing and questionable that a Muslim correctly bags sound…

TO BE SUCCESSFUL

In the Name of Allah. Among the qualities that a Muslim should bag is patience in the face of harm (i.e. enduring what one dislikes) with a sense of acceptance and submission, just for the Sake of Allah. This is indeed one of the things that lead to success. Certainly, impatience over calamity is itself…

DURING MENSTRUAL PERIOD

In the Name of Allāh. Have you seen how life gets grim for the one who rejects the Straight Way? I sometimes fall about over the heretic ways of the strayed. In Judaism, for instance, the Jews have total rejection for their women when in menses – so much that they even disallow their garments…
