THE SUCCESS IS IN…

In the Name of Allāh. Exaltation is to Allāh Who commands us to follow the excellent example of our pious predecessors (Prophet Muhammad [ﷺ] been the first) and prohibits us from imitating the disbelievers.

IN THE FIRST HOUR

In the Name of Allāh. Alḥamdulillāh, it’s another day of Jumu’ah. From the rulings of Jumu’ah prayer is getting to the Masjid (for prayer) at its early time (i.e. the first hour). As recorded in Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī and Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim, Abū Hurayrah (Raḍiyallāhu ‘Anhu) reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Whoever does Ghusl…

THAT WHICH PROFIT

In the Name of Allāh. I once read a quote somewhere – so inspiring! It says: “If walls have ears, angels too have a pen.”  What do people say when talking unnecessarily? What man utters (with his tongue) is either advantageous to him and others or destroying. Note, unnecessary speech is most times harmful. As…

THE MESSAGE IS THAT…

In the Name of Allāh. Exaltation is to Allāh above all fallacious attributes attributed to Him. With Allāh are pain and gain. He causes Life and Death. I begin with these words, the essence of which is for accentuation, since many often listen to such but they pay less attention to it and they thus…

THICKER THAN BLOOD

In the Name of Allāh. Praise is to Allāh, the Lord of the ‘Alamin. He created a strong brotherhood (with sincere love) between the believers, as they are united together upon the Deen (i.e. Islam).

HOW AWESOME THIS IS!

In the Name of Allāh. By Allāh, we are indeed favored with the blessing of Islām; having numerous excellent acts to be done in amassing oodles of boon from Allāh. Let’s just consider the Jumu’ah prayer as an instance. Regarding it, as recorded in Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim, the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Whoever bath, then comes to…

QUALITY OF ADVICE

In the Name of Allāh. From the excellent features of the true Muslims is giving Naseehah (advice, i.e. enjoining good and forbidding evil) to one another, whether requested or not. Nothing makes them possess this great quality except that they follow the veracious path of our beloved Prophet (ﷺ) as there are many narrations from…

LAUGH LATER AT THEM

In the Name of Allāh. See what the world has become! Muslim men want to grow beards (i.e., facial hair) according to the Sunnah (way and teaching) of Allāh’s Prophets (‘Eesa [Jesus] inclusive), but they are regarded as backward. Muslim women want to cover and dress according to the dress code of the believing women…

HAVING NO TWO BELOVED

In the Name of Allāh. He was a blind man known with stalwart devotion and sacrifice towards the Cause of Allāh, and this made him survive all persecutions he was tormented with at a period.  He is a cousin of the Prophet’s first wife and mother of the believers, Khadijah Bint Khuwaylid (RadiyaLlahu ‘Anha). He…
