Thought For The Day...✍

You should structure your time, arrange your regular devotions, and assign each function a set period of time during which it is given first priority but which it does not overstep. For if you abandon yourself to neglect and purposelessness, as the cattle do, and just do anything that may occur to you at any time it happens to occur to you, most of your time will be wasted. Your time is your life, and your life is your capital; it is the basis of your transactions [with ALLAAH], and the means to attain to everlasting felicity, in the proximity of ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA). Each of your breaths is a priceless jewel, and when it passes away it never returns.

STORY — Suspicion

Hasan Basri once noticed a slave with a woman near the banks of the River Tigris. In his hand, the slave held a bottle from which he was drinking. The saint thought to himself, “I regard myself as a sinner, but I am superior to this slave.”
As he looked on, a boat with seven men on board began to sink in the river. The slave instantly jumped into the water and saved six of them. He then turned to the saint and remarked, “I have saved six of the seven. Since you regard yourself as superior to me, I request that you save the remaining person on the boat.”
He then explained, “I was trying to test you to see if you were blind or observant. The woman by my side is my mother and the bottle in my hand contains nothing but water.”
Hasan Basri realised his error and immediately begged the man for forgiveness. He also requested, “Just as you saved six men from drowning, save me from drowning in the sea of blindness.” From then onwards, Hasan Basri never regarded anybody with contempt.

WHY WE SHOULD STRIVE TO OFFER OUR 5X DAILY PRAYERS. {Part 2}

BismilLaahir Rahmaanir Raheem.

The parable of the prayer is that of a running river in which we cleanse our hearts five times a day.

Jabir ibn Abdullah reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said:
مَثَلُ الصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسِ كَمَثَلِ نَهْرٍ جَارٍ غَمْرٍ عَلَى بَابِ أَحَدِكُمْ يَغْتَسِلُ مِنْهُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ
The example of the five prayers is that of a river running at the door of one of you in which he cleanses himself five times a day.
Source: Sahih Muslim 668, Grade: Sahih

When we are preparing for prayer, we should keep this image in mind so that our awareness is focused on the goal of attaining a pure heart. Related to this inward purification is the purification from sin, as prayer is among the greatest good deeds for which we expiate our sins.

Abdullah ibn Mas’ud reported: A man kissed a woman who was not his wife and he came to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and told him about that. The verse was revealed:
أَقِمْ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيْ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنْ اللَّيْلِ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَاتِ يُذْهِبْنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ
Establish prayer at the two ends of the day and in the first hours of the night. Verily, good deeds will do away with bad deeds. (11:114)
Source: Sahih Bukhari 4410, Grade: Muttafaqun Alayhi

This expiation is another way to view the prayer as a river, since it cleanses us from the sins we commit.

Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said:
أَرَأَيْتُمْ لَوْ أَنَّ نَهَرًا بِبَابِ أَحَدِكُمْ، يَغْتَسِلُ فِيهِ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ خَمْسًا مَا تَقُولُ ذَلِكَ يُبْقِي مِنْ دَرَنِهِ‏
If there was a river at the door of anyone of you and he took a bath in it five times a day, would you notice any dirt on him?
They said, “Not a trace of dirt would be left.” The Prophet said:
فَذَلِكَ مِثْلُ الصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسِ يَمْحُو اللَّهُ بِهَا الْخَطَايَا
That is the example of the five prayers with which Allah erases evil deeds. Source: Sahih Bukahri 505, Grade: Muttafaqun Alayhi. Allahu Akbar.

May Allah aid us through our efforts to offer our daily salaat on time and with sunnah ones too.
Aameen.

WHY WE SHOULD STRIVE TO OFFER OUR 5X DAILY PRAYERS. { Part 1}

BismilLaahir Rahmaanir Raheem.

Prayer (salat) is the most important practice in Islam after declaring faith in Allah and His Messenger. The Prophet described the prayer as a light, the pillar of Islam, and among the best deeds.

Abdullah ibn Mas’ud may Allah be pleased with him reported: I asked, “O Messenger of Allah, which deed is best?” The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said:
الصَّلَاةُ عَلَى مِيقَاتِهَا
Prayer in its proper time.
Source: Sahih Bukhari 2630, Grade: Muttafaqun Alayhi

But this is for the true and sincere prayer that completes its purpose and objectives, both inwardly and outwardly, not simply going through the motions without presence of heart. In order for the prayer to be fulfilled, we must allow it to purify our hearts, to keep us away from sin, and to enrich our lives in the remembrance of Allah.

Purification of the heart is the ultimate religious objective of prayer. A prayer will only be acceptable to Allah if it is done with sincerity, reverence, awareness, and repentance. Our prayers should cleanse the heart of every spiritual disease such as envy, malice, zina, gambling, arrogance etc.

Allah says:
قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ وَذَكَرَ اسْمَ رَبِّهِ فَصَلَّىٰ
He has succeeded who purifies himself, who remembers the name of his Lord and prays. Surat Al-A’la 87:14-15. Allahu Akbar WALHAMDULILLAH.

May Allah aid us to purify our hearts towards our salaat.
Aameen.

WAHABI !!!??

Sorry, the post maybe too long.

Atimes, one will be forced to conclude that some folks, although they are non-muslims, have senses more than our own brothers in Islam. Perhaps, their ignorance is a zoonotic disease contracted from a certain species that have gone into extinction (see IUCN RED LIST,lol)
When a so called "moderate Muslim" labels you a "Wahabi", the best thing to do is to draw out your tongue (Ntooor!), trust me, his frustration will increase by 30% because he labelled you out of frustration already. Who or what is  Wahabi? According to them, Wahabi is a Muslim who follows the anti-polytheism teachings of Shaykh-l-Islam Muhammad Ibn AbdilWahab An-Najdi (may Allaah reward him with Jannah). As contained in Q 16 Vs 36, the basic assignment of every messenger is to call his people to monotheism (anti-polytheism), why then do you have issues with the Dawah of the noble Shaykh?

" And verily, We have sent among every Ummah (community, nation) a Messenger (proclaiming): "Worship Allah (Alone), and avoid (or keep away from) Taghut (all false deities, etc.i. e. do not worship Taghut besides Allah)..." (Nahl Vs 36).

Tagging people as Wahabi is not really an issue, the main issue arrises when they start to compare your doctrine with the doctrine of people like Bin Laden and Abubakar Shekau. Well, I can only blame frustration and ignorance. Every upright scholar (of Islam) in this era has dissociated themselves from the teachings of Bin Laden. They all have  tried so hard to differentiate between the Dawah of Bin Laden and the Dawah of Ibn AbdilWahab.

The former grand mufti of Saudi, Shaykh AbdulAziz Ibn Bazz said " My advice to Al-Massari, Faqih, Bin Laden, and anyone following their way is to give up this destructive path they’ve taken, to fear Allāh and fear His retribution and anger. They must return to guidance and repent to Allāh for what they’ve done. Allāh has promised the repentant to accept their repentance, saying:

" ...And cooperate in righteousness and piety, but do not cooperate in sin and aggression.." [Q 5:2].

"Say: Oh my servants who have transgressed against themselves, do not despair of the mercy of Allāh. Certainly, Allāh forgives all sins. Indeed, it is he who is the forgiving, the merciful. And return back to your Lord and submit to him before the punishment comes upon you; then you will not be helped " [Q39:53-54].

" And turn to Allāh in repentance, all of you, oh believers, that you might succeed. [Q24:31]

[ “Al-Buḥūth al-Islāmiyyah” magazine, (No. 50, pgs. 7-17), “al-Muslimūn” and “al-Sharq al-Awsaṭ” newspapers (in the Arabic month of Jamādá al-Ūwlá in 1417 Hijrah – which corresponds to 1996 C.E.]

To the moderate Muslims who sees anyone calling to the anti-polytheism  Dawah of Muhammad Ibn AbdilWahab as a terrorist and trying to link the Dawah  of the Shaykh to the Dawah of Ben Laden (and Shekau), Natana J. Delong -  Bas, a female and a non-muslim has this to say to you :

"Across time and space, the Wahhabis have been depicted as violent fanatics, wreaking havoc, death, and destruction against anyone whom they considered to be unbelievers or associationists.
This depiction clearly has no basis in the written works of Muhammad Ibn Abd al-Wahhab. Although he taught that monotheism should always be upheld and associationism must be eradicated, violence and killing were not the prescribed methods for achieving these goals.
He always emphasized education and discussion as the appropriate means for calling people to monotheism. Rather than calling for violence and destruction, his writings on jihad were permeated with an emphasis on the importance of the preservation of life, human, plant, and animal, and property, both human and material.
Ibn Abd al-Wahhab's careful, and detailed discussion of jihad -- how it is defined, who is to carry it out, and under what circumstances and the regulations applying to it both during and afterward -- demonstrates a concern for placing limitations of violence and destruction rather than calling for indiscriminate militance against nonadherents to his teachings. His focus on the preservation of life -- human, plant, and animal -- as well as property reflects his concern for respect of others and the desire to pursue peaceful means of conversion and the establishment of cooperative relationships with others. In keeping with this vision, Ibn Abd al-Wahhab sought to limit violence, particularly applications of the death penalty, because he believed that this was counterproductive and likely only to produce fear, not faith.
Ibn Abd al-Wahhab's overwhelming concern was the winning of adherents through faith of the heart -- a goal that he believed could best be achieved through dialogue rather that destruction. According to this vision, jihad has no place as an offensive activity. It is a method of last resort in defending the Muslim community from aggression so that the work of proselytization can continue.

[Wahabi Islam : from revival and reform to global jihad]

Reflect on the Qur'an

"Say, [O Muhammad], "It has been revealed to me that a group of the jinn listened and said, 'Indeed, we have heard an amazing Qur'an.

It guides to the right course, and we have believed in it. And we will never associate with our Lord anyone."

PONDER!!!

PONDER...👇

Islam stresses the importance of the institution of marriage and the desirability of having children and taking good care of all members of the family. Healthy societies are built on healthy families. Remaining single, having relationships outside of marriage, or neglecting one’s family, are looked down upon and contrary to the teachings of Islam.

Whoever desires to gain Allah’s Pleasure and win his/her everlasting abode in Paradise needs to take care of the responsibilities that Allah (ﷻ) wants us to shoulder on earth and which (anyway) satisfy the demands of human nature. Marriage should be looked forward to as a way to earn good deeds and the most responsible and fitting way in which to satisfy the cravings of human nature.

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Get married, reproduce, and let your number increase.” [Sunan Ibn Majah]

Ways of offering Witr, Tahajjud, Qiyaam al-layl prayer

**

Praise be to Allaah.
Witr prayer is one of the greatest acts of worship that draw one closer to Allaah. Some of the scholars – the Hanafis – even thought that it is one of the obligatory prayers, but the correct view is that it is one of the confirmed Sunnahs (Sunnah mu’akkadah) which the Muslim should observe regularly and not neglect.
Imam Ahmad (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: Whoever neglects Witr is a bad man whose testimony should not be accepted. This indicates that Witr prayer is something that is confirmed.
We may sum up the manner of offering Witr prayer as follows:
Its timing:
It starts when a person has prayed ‘Isha’, even if it is joined to Maghrib at the time of Maghrib, and lasts until dawn begins, because
*the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Allaah has prescribed for you a prayer (by which He may increase your reward), which is Witr; Allaah has enjoined it for you during the time between ‘Isha’ prayer until dawn begins.” Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 425; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Tirmidhi .*

Is it better to offer this prayer at the beginning of its time or to delay it?
The Sunnah indicates that if a person thinks he will be able to get up at the end of the night, it is better to delay it, because prayer at the end of the night is better and is witnessed (by the angels). But whoever fears that he will not get up at the end of the night should pray Witr before he goes to sleep, because of
*the hadeeth of Jaabir (may Allaah be pleased with him) who said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Whoever fears that he will not get up at the end of the night, let him pray Witr at the beginning of the night, but whoever thinks that he will be able to get up at the end of the night, let him pray Witr at the end of the night, for prayer at the end of the night is witnessed (by the angels) and that is better.” Narrated by Muslim, 755.*

*Al-Nawawi said:* This is the correct view. Other ahaadeeth which speak of this topic in general terms are to be interpreted in the light of this sound, specific and clear report, such as the hadeeth, “My close friend advised me not to sleep without having prayed Witr.” This is to be understood as referring to one who is not sure that he will be able to wake up (to pray Witr at the end of the night). Sharh Muslim , 3/277.

The number of rak’ahs:
The minimum number of rak’ahs for Witr is one rak’ah, because
*the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Witr is one rak'ah at the end of the night.” Narrated by Muslim, 752.*
*And he (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The night prayers are two (rak’ahs) by two, but if one of you fears that dawn is about to break, let him pray one rak’ah to make what he has prayed odd-numbered.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 911; Muslim, 749.*
If a person limits himself to praying one rak’ah, then he has performed the Sunnah. But Witr may also be three or five or seven or nine.
If a person prays three rak’ahs of Witr this may be done in two ways, both of which are prescribed in sharee’ah:

1 – To pray them one after another, with one tashahhud, because of
*the hadeeth of ‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) who said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used not to say the tasleem in the (first) two rakahs of Witr. According to another version: “He used to pray Witr with three rak'ahs and he did not sit except in the last of them.” Narrated by al-Nasaa’i, 3/234; al-Bayhaqi, 3/31. al-Nawawi said in al-Majmoo’ (4/7):*
it was narrated by al-Nasaa’i with a hasan isnaad, and by al-Bayhaqi with a saheeh isnaad.

2 – Saying the tasleem after two rak'ahs, then praying one rak’ah on its own, because of
*the report narrated from Ibn ‘Umar (may Allaah be pleased with him), that he used to separate the two rak'ahs from the single rak'ah with a tasleem, and he said that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to do that. Narrated by Ibn Hibbaan (2435); Ibn Hajar said in al-Fath (2/482): its isnaad is qawiy (strong).*

But if he prays Witr with five or seven rak’ahs, then they should be continuous, and he should only recite one tashahhud in the last of them and say the tasleem, because of
*the report narrated by ‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) who said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to pray thirteen rak’ahs at night, praying five rak’ahs of Witr, in which he would not sit except in the last rak’ah. Narrated by Muslim, 737.*

And *it was narrated that Umm Salamah (may Allaah be pleased with her) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to pray Witr with five or seven (rak’ahs) and he did not separate between them with any salaam or words. Narrated by Ahmad, 6/290; al-Nasaa’i, 1714. al-Nawawi said: Its isnaad is jayyid. Al-Fath al-Rabbaani , 2/297*
and it was classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Nasaa’i .
If he prays Witr with nine rak’ahs, then they should be continuous and he should sit to recite the tashahhud in the eighth rak'ah, then stand up and not say the tasleem, then he should recite the tashahhud in the ninth rak’ah and then say the tasleem.
*It was narrated in Muslim (746) from ‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to pray nine rak’ahs in which he did not sit except in the eighth, when he would remember Allaah, praise Him and call upon Him, then he would get up and not say the tasleem, and he would stand up and pray the ninth (rak’ah), then he would sit and remember Allaah and praise Him and call upon Him, then he would say a tasleem that we could hear.*
If he prayed Witr with eleven rak’ahs, he would say the tasleem after each two rak’ahs, then pray one rak’ah at the end.
The less perfect way of praying Witr and what is to be recited therein:
The less perfect way in Witr is to pray two rak'ahs and say the tasleem, then to pray one rak’ah and say the tasleem. It is permissible to say one tasleem, but one should say one tashahhud not two, as stated above.

In the first rak’ah one should recite Sabbih isma rabbika al-‘a’la (“Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High” – Soorat al-A’la 87). In the second one should recite Soorat al-Kaafiroon (109), and in the third Soorat al-Ikhlaas (112).
*Al-Nasaa’i (1729) narrated that Ubayy ibn Ka’b said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to recite in Witr Sabbih isma rabbika al-‘a’la (“Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High” – Soorat al-A’la 87), Qul yaa ayyuha’l-kaafiroon (“Say: O disbeliever…” – Soorat al-Kaafiroon 109) and Qul Huwa Allaahu ahad (“Say: He is Allaah, the One” – Soorat al-Ikhlaas 112). Classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Nasaa’i*

*All these ways of offering Witr prayer have been mentioned in the Sunnah, but the best way is not to stick to one particular way; rather one should do it one way one time and another way another time, so that one will have done all the Sunnahs.*
And Allaah knows best.

Thought For The Day...✍

We sought four traits, but did not achieve them because we did not seek them from their rightful resources; we sought richness in money, but richness is in contentment. We sought comfort in abundant, but comfort is really in having little. We sought honor in good mannerism (not for the sake of ALLAAH), but honor lies in the taqwa. We sought delight in food and clothes, but delight is in modesty and Islām.

Life in the Cave - Sacrifices of Rasulullah and Abu Bakr

When Prophet Mohammad (SAW) and Abu Bakr (RA) reached mount Thawr during the migration to Medina, Abu Bakr (May Allah be pleased with him) carried him up the mountain to a cave called after the name of the mountain, Cave Thawr. Abu Bakr first entered to explore the cave and be sure that it was safe, closed all holes with pieces torn off from his clothes, cleaned it and then asked the Prophet (Peace be upon him) to step in. The Prophet (Peace be upon him) went in and immediately laid his head in Abu Bakr's lap and fell asleep. Suddenly Abu Bakr's foot was stung by a poisonous insect. It hurt so much that his tears fell on the Prophet's face. The Prophet (Peace be upon him) immediately applied his saliva on Abu Bakr's foot and the pain went off on the spot. They confined themselves to this cave for three nights, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. 'Abdullah, the son of Abu Bakr would go to see them after dusk, stay the night there, apprise them of the latest situation in Makkah, and then leave in the early morning to mix with the Makkans as usual and not to draw the least attention to his clandestine activities. 'Amir bin Fuhairah, while in the company of other shepherds of Makkah tending his master Abu Bakr's flock, used to stole away unobserved every evening with a few goats to the cave and furnished its inmates with a plentiful supply of milk.

WIDOWS' PLIGHT

.
.
The death of a loved one is often traumatic and could adversely affect a person. But our society makes it sound that the nature favours a widower above the widow.
.
A man who lost his wife tends to quickly get over it but women who their husband dies are much more affected when such things happen, problems of insomnia, high blood pressure, sense of neglect, sense of lost, fear of the unknown set in all at once in a terrible shock.
.
Widowers can re-marry early enough after the demise of their wives but if a widow should try to get married so early, people would start to see her as a lady that lacks chastity while others begin to suspect her if she's had a hand in the death of her husband
.
A widower can decide to get married at any time he believes he is ready for it, even at any age. Incase of a 70 year old widower the children would feel concerned and most time arrange for a young woman for their father because they believe that their father should not remain alone, But reverse is the case of a widow even if she's just 30 years old, if care is not taken she may remain single for ever.
.
Many people are of the opinion that when the husband dies, the sexual emotion of the wife should die with her husband. She should never venture or dream of any serial act with anybody. She should see her children as her children.
.
Why should we be deceiving ourselves, the position of a child remains constant, i.e. Child-mother relationship, why should a child turn to be the husband? The role of the husband is quite different and vital. Husband is the husband, he has sexual and other roles to play which is forbidden of a son to play in all ramifications.
.
In case of a widower, people won't preach to him to take his daughter to be his wife, rather they quickly organize and get a damsel for him.
.
Apart from sexual needs, every human needs someone to discuss with, to share views and feeling with, because problems shared is half or almost solved. The widow still needs someone to partner with her in life and look after her children. Many children that involve in crime because they lack parental care, some as a result of the death of their father and there's no one to look after them or caution them when they misbehaves.
.
Widows should be look up to, and we should help them. Men intending to take other wives should marry the widows (am not saying it is compulsory upon them). And wives should allow their husbands to marry the widow, they should not be over possessive, God owns every soul. They shouldn't disgrace or blackmail the widow their husband is intending to marry. They should feel for them and put themselves in their shoes.
.
.
May Allah ease our affairs

Abdullah ibn Masud at his death bed

Abdullah ibn Masud lived to the time of Khalifah Uthman, may God be pleased with him. When he was sick and on his death-bed, Uthman came to visit him and said:

"What is your ailment?"

"My sins."

"And what do you desire?"

"The mercy of my Lord."

"Shall I not give you your stipend which you have refused to take for years now?"

"I have no need of it."

"Let it be for your daughters after you."

"Do you fear poverty for my children? I have commanded them to read Surah al-Waqiah every night for I have heard the Prophet saying, "Whoever reads Al-Waqiah every night shall not be afflicted by poverty ever."

That night, Abdullah passed away to the company of his Lord, his tongue moist with the remembrance of God and with the recitation of the verses of His Book.

Abdullah ibn Masud bleeds to recite the Quran

The companions of the Prophet were together one day in Makkah. They were still few in number. weak and oppressed. They said, "The Quraysh have not yet heard the Quran being recited openly and loudly. Who is the man who could recite it for them?'

"I shall recite it from them," volunteered Abdullah ibn Masud . "We are afraid for you," they said. "We only want someone who has a clan who would protect him from their evil . "

"Let me," Abdullah ibn Masud insisted, "Allah shall protect me and keep me away from their evil." He then went out to the mosque until he reached Maqam Ibrahim (a few meters from the Kabah). It was dawn and the Quraysh were sitting around the Kabah. Abdullah stopped at the Maqam and began to recite:

"Bismillah irRahma nirRahim. Ar-Rahman. Allama-l Quran. Khalaqal insan. Allamahul bayan... (In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful. The Merciful God. He has taught the Quran. He has created man and taught him the clear truth...)"

He went on reciting. The Quraysh looked at him intently and some of them asked: "What is Ibn Umm Abd saying?" "Damn him! He is reciting some of what Muhammad brought!" they realized. They went up to him and began beating his face as he continued reciting. When he went back to his companions the blood was flowing from his face. "This is what we feared for you," they said. "By God," replied Abdullah, "the enemies of God are not more comfortable than I at this moment. If you wish. I shall go out tomorrow and do the same."

The words reflect one's inner self

Mahmud was a very pious man, but he was not very attractive looking. One day, he was walking along the road, minding his own business, when a lady came up to him, and started calling him names and abusing him. This lady kept saying all kinds of nasty things, and Mahmud just listened to her patiently. Finally, when she was finished calling him names and abusing him, Mahmud just greeted her, smiled, and said

"and a nice day to you," and continued on his way.

Why did Mahmud, the pious man, behave this way?

It is because he knew that everything she said was just a reflection of her own inner self.

If you use bad language, you are just making obvious to everybody how far away you really are from Allah, since your words are in reality a reflection of your own inner self.

The man who made a promise to tell the truth

Telling the truth is a very good habit. If you always speak the truth, you can save yourself from a lot of trouble! Here is a story of a man who did a lot of bad things, but his promise to tell the truth saved him.

Once a man came to the prophet Muhammad (S) and said, "Oh prophet of Allah, I have many bad habits. Which one of them should I give up first?" The prophet said, "Give up telling lies first and always speak the truth." The man promised to do so and went home.

At night the man was about to go out to steal. Before setting out, he thought for a moment about the promise he made with the prophet. "If tomorrow the prophet asks me where have I been, what shall I say? Shall I say that I went out stealing? No, I cannot say that. But nor can I lie. If I tell the truth, everyone will start hating me and call me a thief. I would be punished for stealing."

So the man decided not to steal that night, and gave up this bad habit.

Next day, he felt like drinking wine, when he was about to do so, he said to himself, "What shall I say to the prophet if he asks me what did I do during the day? I cannot tell a lie, and if I speak the truth people will hate me, because a Muslim is not allowed to drink wine." And so he gave up the idea of drinking wine.

In this way, whenever the man thought of doing something bad, he remembered his promise to tell the truth at all times. One by one, he gave up all his bad habits and became a good Muslim and a very good person.

If you always speak the truth, you can be a good person, a good Muslim whom Allah likes and favors. If Allah - our Creator - is pleased with us, He will reward us with HEAVEN, which is a place of happiness and joy.

The people of innovations in Islam is like the Scorpion

The saying of Imaam al-Barbaharee رحمه الله about the Ahlul-Bidah (innovation):

 ((مثل أصحاب البدع مثل العقارب يدفنون رؤوسهم وأبدانهم في التراب، ويخرجون أذنابهم، فإذا تمكنوا لدغوا، وكذلك أهل البدع، هم مختفون بين الناس، فإذا تمكنوا بلغوا ما يريدون. ))

“The example of the people of innovations is like the scorpion. They bury their bodies and heads in the sands, but their (venomous) tails are exposed, so that when they are able they will sting. Likewise are the people of innovation, they are concealed amongst the people, then when they are able, they will deliver (from their bid’ah) what they can.”

[Source: Tabaqat al-Hanabilah, (2/44-45)]

Shaykh al-Allaamah Saalih bin Fawzaan al-Fawzaan حفظه الله was asked regarding this statement:

السؤال: يقول السائل ما معنى قول بعض السلف: ” أهل البدع كالعقارب، تدفن رأسها وتبقي أذنابها حتى إذا تمكنت لدغت ؟

Question: The questioner says: What is the meaning of the statement from some of the Salaf: The innovators are like the scorpion, he buries his head while leaving his tail out, such that when he is able to, he stings?

The Shaykh حفظه الله replied:

نعم كلام واضح ، أن أهل البدع فيهم نفاق ، أهل البدع يبتلون بالنفاق وهو أنهم يظهرون الخير ويبطنون الشر، يظهرون الخير للناس خديعة { يخادعون الله والذين آمنوا } ، ويبطنون الشر ومتى ما تمكنوا من نشر الشر نشروه مثل العقرب نعم.

Yes. This speech is clear. The people of innovation have with them hypocrisy. The people of innovation have been afflicted with hypocrisy. And it is that they display good while they hide evil, they display good to the people as a way of deception.

{{ They try to deceive Allah and those who believe…}} [Soorah al-Baqarah (2):9]

And they conceal the evil. And when they have the ability to spread evil, they spread it, just like the scorpion.

Wisdom of Iyas Ibn Muawiyah

A man came to Iyas Ibn Mu'awiyah, a Muslim judge famous for his wisdom, and the following conversation took place between them:

Man: What is the Islamic ruling regarding wine?

Judge: It is Haram (Forbidden).

Man: How about water?

Judge: It is Halal (Permissible).

Man: How about dates and grapes?

Judge: They are Halal.

Man: Why is it that all these ingredients are Halal, and yet when you combine them, they become Haram?

The judge looked at the man and said: If I hit you with this handful of dirt, do you think it would hurt you?

Man: It would not.

Judge: How about if I hit you with this handful of straw?

Man: It would not hurt me.

Judge: How about a handful of water?

Man: It surely would not hurt me.

Judge: How about if I mix them, and let them dry to become a brick, and then hit you with it, would it hurt you?

Man: It would hurt me and might even kill me!

Judge: The same reasoning applies to what you asked me!!

Iyas Ibn Muawiyah Al-Muzani was a tabi'i Qadi (judge) in the 2nd century AH who lived in Basra (modern day Iraq). He was renowned for possessing immense cleverness which became a favourite topic in Arabic folklore.

Malik Bin Dinar and the Thief

A burglar scaled the wall of Maalik Bin Dinar's house one night and easily managed to get inside. Once inside the house, the thief was disappointed to see nothing worth stealing. Maalik was busy performing prayer. Realizing he was not alone, he quickly ended his prayer and turned around to face the thief.

Without showing any signs of shock or scare, Maalik calmly extended greetings of peace and said, "My brother, may Allah forgive you. You entered my home and found nothing worth taking, yet I do not want you to leave without taking away some benefit."

He went in another room and came back with a jug full of water. He looked into the eyes of the burglar and said,

"Make ablution and perform two units of prayer, for if you do so, you will leave my home with a greater treasure than you had initially sought."

Humbled by Maalik's manners and words, the thief said, "Yes, that is a generous offer indeed."

After making ablution and performing two units of prayer, the burglar said, "O Maalik, would you mind if I stayed for a while, for I want to stay to perform two more units of prayer?"

Maalik said, "Stay for whatever amount of prayer Allah decrees for you to perform now."

The thief ended up spending the entire night at Maalik's house. He continued to pray until morning. Then Maalik said, "Leave now and be good."

But instead of leaving, the thief said, "Would you mind if I stayed here with you today, for I have made an intention to fast?"

"Stay as long as you wish," Maalik said.

The burglar ended up staying for a number of days, praying during the late hours of each night and fasting in the day. When he finally decided to leave, the burglar said, "O Maalik, I have made a firm resolve to repent for my sins and for my former way of life."

Maalik said, "That is in the Hand of Allah."

The man did mend his ways and began to lead a life of righteousness and obedience to Allah. Later on, he came across another burglar who asked him, "Have you found your treasure yet?"

He replied, "My brother, what I found is Maalik Bin Dinar. I went to steal from him, but it was he who ended up stealing my heart. I have indeed repented to Allah, and I will remain at the door (of His Mercy and Forgiveness) until I achieve what his obedient, loving slaves have achieved."

Thought For The Day...✍

Marriage is not a playground where the ego thoughtlessly pursues its vanities. It is an institution that helps a man and a woman pursue the purpose of their creation: to glorify and worship ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA) and to work, within the extent of our capabilities and resources, to make the world a better place for those we share it with and for those we will leave it to.

HIJAABAH SISTER !

In this age of nudity
Which is a severe stupidity
Perhaps, a worldly mentality
I've dropped any kind of timidity
And I've put forward my religious ability
And I've made covering a priority
My creator blessed me with an awesome
physique
He told me it's unique
I should cover not only when I'm in the mosque
But even when I'm in the mall
Else, on the day of reckoning, I might fall
But He wants me to stand tall
He wants me to see the noor
So He alerted me in Suuratul Noor
When the weather is hot and I cover, the
question I
hear is "in this hotness?"
But when the weather is cold and some people
reveal, the question I don't hear is "in this
coldness?"
How unfair the world is!
The west thinks I'm being oppressed
Maybe they're possessed
They think covering is of the past
How can the command of the Almighty be past?
Truly, their thoughts are at last
Safeguarding my modesty is a must
So when I'm being loved, it's real, not a lust
So my marriage becomes fast
I'll now show to my hubby what I didn't show to
the
world
I'll show to him what I kept hidden from the
world
Because it's meant for solely him not for the
world
He will now see how gorgeous I am
How rare I am
How truly unique I am
Because when thousands of ladies chose to be
as
cheap as stones found everywhere
I chose to be as uncommon as a diamond not
found
everywhere
In his eyes, I'll glitter like a star
Because I chose to be an HIJAABAH SISTER

RULING ON CLAPPING

Praise be to Allaah. 
Clapping during parties is one of the actions of jaahiliyyah. The least that can be said about it is that it is makrooh (disliked), but the evidence suggests rather that it is haraam, because the Muslims are not allowed to resemble the kuffaar. Allah says describing the kuffaar of Makkah (interpretation of the meaning):
“Their Salaah (prayer) at the House (of Allaah, i.e. the Ka‘bah at Makkah) was nothing but whistling and clapping of hands”
[al-Anfaal 8:35]
The Sunnah is, when the believer sees something that he likes or dislikes, to say ‘Subhaan Allaah (Glory be to Allaah)’ or ‘Allaahu akbar (Allaah is Most Great),’ as was narrated from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) in many ahaadeeth.
Clapping is prescribed specifically for women if something alarms them during the prayer, or they are praying with the men and the imaam makes a mistake in the prayer. In that case they should draw his attention to that by clapping, whereas men should do so by saying ‘Subhaan Allaah’, as was narrated in the saheeh Sunnah from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). From this it may be known that clapping on the part of men implies imitation of kaafirs and women, and all of that is forbidden. And Allaah is the source of strength.
Shaykh Ibn Baaz.
The Standing Committee was asked about men clapping when they play with children, or children clapping to encourage their classmates. They replied:
This clapping is not appropriate, and at the very least it is intensely makrooh because this is one of the characteristics of the jaahiliyyah, and because it is something that is done only by women, to draw attention to a mistake in the prayer. And Allaah is the Source of strength.
From Fataawa Islamiyyah, vol. 4, p. 332-333
Children can be encouraged by saying ‘Allaahu akbar’ if they do something that the watcher or listener likes, or one may use other suitable phrases, or raise one’s hands, or raise one’s voice in words of praise such as “Well done!” or “Excellent!” and so on. And Allaah is the Source of strength.

The Concept of Democracy in Islam

I heard that the word democracy is derived from Islam. Is that true? What is the ruling on promoting democracy?

Praise be to Allah.

Firstly: 

Democracy is not an Arabic word. Rather it is derived from the Greek, and it is a composite of two words: demos, meaning the masses or the people, and kratia, meaning rule. So what is meant is the rule of the masses or the rule of the people. 

Secondly: 

Democracy is a system that is contrary to Islam, because it gives the power of legislation to the people or to those who represent them (such as members of Parliament). Based on that, in democracy legislative authority is given to someone other than Allah, may He be exalted; rather it is given to the people and their deputies, and what matters is not their consensus but the majority. Thus what the majority agree upon becomes laws that are binding on the nation, even if it is contrary to common sense, religious teaching or reason. In these systems legislation has been promulgated allowing abortion, same-sex marriage and usurious interest (riba); the rulings of sharee‘ah have been abolished; and fornication/adultery and the drinking of alcohol are permitted. In fact this system is at war with Islam and its followers. 

Allah, may He be exalted, has told us in the His Book that legislative authority belongs to Him alone, and that He is the wisest of those who issue rulings and judge. He has forbidden the association of anyone with Him in His authority, and no one is better than Him in ruling. 

Allah, may He be exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):

“So the judgement is only with Allah, the Most High, the Most Great!”

[Ghaafir 40:12]

“The command (or the judgement) is for none but Allah. He has commanded that you worship none but Him (i.e. His Monotheism), that is the (true) straight religion, but most men know not”

[Yoosuf 12:40]

“Is not Allah the Best of judges?”

[at-Teen 95:8]

“Say: ‘Allah knows best how long they stayed. With Him is (the knowledge of) the unseen of the heavens and the earth. How clearly He sees, and hears (everything)! They have no Walee (Helper, Disposer of affairs, Protector, etc.) other than Him, and He makes none to share in His Decision and His Rule’”

[al-Kahf 18:26]

“Do they then seek the judgement of (the Days of) Ignorance? And who is better in judgement than Allah for a people who have firm Faith?”

[al-Maa’idah 5:50]. 

Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, is the Creator of all things and He knows what is good for them and what is in their best interests of rulings. Human beings vary in intellect, attitude and customs, and they are unaware of what is best for them, let alone what is best for others. Hence in societies that are ruled by the people in terms of legislation and laws, one sees only corruption, immorality and disintegration of the social fabric. 

It should be noted that in many countries this system has changed into something that has no reality behind it, and it is mere slogans by which people are deceived; in fact the real ruler is the head of state and his helpers, and the people are suppressed and have no say in anything. 

There is nothing more indicative of that than the fact that when this democracy produces results that do not suit the desires of the rulers, they crush it underfoot. Cases of election fraud, suppression of freedoms and silencing of the voices of those who speak the truth are well known to everyone and do not need further proof. 

This is very clear in many countries and does not need any proof. 

It says in Mawsoo‘ah al-Adyaan wa’l-Madhaahib al-Mu‘aasirah (2/1066): 

Representative democracy: 

This is one of the democratic systems in which the people exercise authority through a council of elected representatives of the people. In this system the people retain the right to exercise some aspects of authority directly by various means, the most important of which are: 

1.     The right to propose laws, which is done when a number of people propse a law in general terms or in detail, which the parliament will then discuss and vote upon.

2.     The right to a referendum, whereby a law that has already been approved by Parliament is presented to the people so that they can have their say.

3.     The right of objection, whereby a number of voters defined by the Constitution have the right to object to a law within a certain period after it has been passed, which will result in taking the matter to the people for a general referendum; if the people agree with it, it will be promulgated, otherwise it will be annulled. This is included in most modern constitutions. 

Undoubtedly democratic systems are one of the modern forms of shirk, in terms of obedience and submission, or in legislation, as it disregards the authority of the Creator, may He be glorified and exalted, and His absolute right of legislation, and regards that as one of the rights of created beings. But Allah, may He be exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):

“You do not worship besides Him but only names which you have named (forged), you and your fathers, for which Allah has sent down no authority. The command (or the judgement) is for none but Allah. He has commanded that you worship none but Him (i.e. His Monotheism), that is the (true) straight religion, but most men know not.”

[Yoosuf 12:40]

“Say (O Muhammad SAW): "I am on clear proof from my Lord (Islamic Monotheism), but you deny (the truth that has come to me from Allah). I have not gotten what you are asking for impatiently (the torment). The decision is only for Allah, He declares the truth, and He is the Best of judges.”

[al-An ‘aam 6:57].

End quote. 

Thirdly: 

Many people think that the word democracy means freedom! But this is incorrect because freedom is one of the by-products of democracy. What we mean by freedom here is freedom of belief, freedom of decadence, and freedom of expression, and these also have many negative impacts on Muslim societies, because matters have gone so far that aspersions are cast upon the Messengers and the messages, and upon the Qur’an and the Sahaabah, on the grounds of freedom of opinion; and wanton display and uncovering are tolerated, and indecent images and movies are propagated on the grounds of freedom. Many such things are happening, of which there is a long list, all of which are playing a part in the corruption of the ummah, morally and spiritually. 

Even that freedom for which countries are calling by means of democratic systems is not absolute. We see whims and desires, and vested interests, behind the limitations on those freedoms. At the time when their systems tolerate aspersions upon the Prophet Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) and the Qur’an, on the grounds of freedom of expression, we find that this freedom is denied when speaking about matters such as the “Nazi Holocaust of the Jews”! In fact anyone who denies this Holocaust is treated as a criminal and put in prison, even though it is a historical matter that may be denied. 

If these people really are promoting freedom, then why do they not let the Muslim peoples choose their own path and religion? Why did they colonize their lands and play a role in changing their religion and beliefs? What do these freedoms have to do with Italy’s slaughter of the Libyan people, or with France's slaughter of the Algerian people, or with Britain’s slaughter of the Egyptian people, or with America’s slaughter of the Afghan and Iraqi peoples? 

According to those who promote it, freedom may be subject to several restrictions, including the following: 

1.     The law. Man does not have absolute freedom to drive in the opposite direction to traffic in the street, or to open a shop without a license, and if he says “I am free,” no one will pay any attention to him.

2.     Custom. A woman in their countries – for example – cannot go to offer condolences to the bereaved wearing a bathing suit. If she says “I am free”, the people will look down on her and throw her out, because it is contrary to custom.

3.     Public taste. One of them – for example – cannot eat and pass wind in front of people, or even burp! The people will look down on him even if he says, “I am free.” 

Furthermore, we say: 

Why shouldn’t our religion restrict our freedom, as their freedom is restricted by things that they cannot deny? Undoubtedly what is taught by Islam is that which is in people’s best interests. If a woman is forbidden to make a wanton display, or if the people are forbidden to drink alcohol and eat pork, and so on, all of that is in their best interests, physically and mentally, and for their general welfare. But they refused to restrict their freedom if the injunction comes from religion, but they say “we hear and we obey” if it comes from human beings like them or from a (man-made) law. 

Fourthly: 

Some people think that the word democracy is equivalent to shoora (consultation) in Islam! This is a mistaken notion for many reasons, including the following: 

1.     Shoora has to do with new matters that arise or with matters that are not explained in detail in the texts of the Qur’an or Sunnah. With regard to the “rule of the people”, the people may discuss what is well-established in religion, which may lead to refusing to acknowldge the prohibitions on that which is forbidden, and to forbidding that which Allah has permitted or made obligatory. So the sale of alcohol is permitted according to these laws, as are fornication/adultery and riba (usury), but these laws put pressures on Islamic organizations and the activities of those who call people to Allah. This is diametrically opposed to sharee‘ah, so what does this have to do with shoora?

2.     The majlis ash-shoora (consultative committee) is to be formed of people who have a deep knowledge of fiqh, Islam and sharee‘ah, fahm, and have a high level of piety and good character. So no one who is of bad character or foolish, or is a disbeliever or atheist, is to be consulted or involved in the shoora process. As for the democratic councils of representatives, they pay no attention to any of the con ditions mentioned above. The representative may be a disbeliever, or of bad character or foolish. What does this have to do with shoora as prescribed in Islam?

3.     Shoora is not binding upon the ruler; the ruler may give precedence to the view of one member of the council that is supported by proof, and prefer his view over that of the other council members, whereas in the case of representative democracy, the agreement of the majority becomes legally binding upon the people. 

Once this is known, then what the Muslims must do is be proud of their religion and trust that the rulings of the Lord are best for them in this world and in the Hereafter, and they should disavow systems that go against the laws of Allah. 

What all other Muslims must do – rulers and ruled alike – is adhere to the laws of Allah, may He be exalted, in all their affairs. It is not permissible for anyone to follow a system or methodology other than Islam. One of the indications of their acceptance of Allah as their Lord, Islam as their religion, and Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) as their Prophet and Messenger, is that the Muslims adhere to Islam outwardly and inwardly; they respect the laws of Allah and follow the Sunnah of the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him). 

We ask Allah to honour us with Islam and to cause the plots of the traitors to fail. 

And Allah knows best.

Be patient, don't complain

Khabbaab ibn al-Aratt (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: "We complained to the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) when he was reclining on his cloak in the shade of the Ka'bah. We said to him: "Why do you not ask Allaah to help us (grant us victory)? Why do you not pray to Allaah for us?" He said, "A man from the people before you would be placed in a hole dug for him, then they would bring a saw and cut his head in two, yet that would not make him renounce his faith. They would use an iron comb to drag the flesh and nerves from his bones, yet that would not make him renounce his faith. By Allaah, this matter will be completed (i.e. Islam will be perfected and will prevail) until a rider travelling from Sana' to Hadramawt will fear nobody but Allaah or the attack of a wolf on his sheep, but you are too impatient." Source: Sahih Bukhari.

The conditions of Muslims may go up and down but Islam will always remain on top. We should never lose hope even during the most difficult times as Allah is always in control. Surely, Allah helps those who are patient.

*{{we - (women) don't like to hear about this verse}}*
*Allah SWA knows b4 the creation of this world that,, there will come a time, where the population of female will be X4 or even more compare to that of male. Then, HE ((Allah)) asked men to start marrying 2, then 3, then 4. Before the final option of 1.*
*JUSTICE AMONG WIVES*
*This is where my fellow women misunderstood Allah SWA.*
*Yes... The truth is always very bitter.*
*Qur'an chapter 4, suratul Nisai - verse 129:--*
ﻭﻟﻦ ﺗﺴﺘﻄﻴﻌﻮﺍﺍﻥ ﺗﻌﺪﻟﻮﺍ ﺑﻴﻦ ﺍﻟﻨﺴﺎﺀ ﻭﻟﻮﺣﺮﺻﺘﻢ ﻓﻼ ﺗﻤﻴﻠﻮﺍﻛﻞ ﺍﻟﻤﻴﻞ ﻓﺘﺬﺭﻭﻫﺎ ﻛﺎﻟﻤﻌﻠﻘﺖ ﻭﺍﻥ ﺗﺼﻠﺤﻮﺍﻭﺗﺘﻘﻮﺍ ﻓﺎﻧﺎﻟﻠﻪ ﻛﺎﻥ ﻏﻔﺮﺍﺭﺣﻴﻤﺎ .
*TRANSLATION*
*U will NEVER be able to give equal love//feelings among wives EVEN IF U STRIVE to do so... So do not incline completely towards one, and the other one hanging. And if u ((men)) amend ur affairs and fear Allah - then, Allah is ever forgiving and merciful.*
*My fellow women... Create time to check the Tafseer of the verse above. Or ask questions Incase u are not convince.*
*The justice in this verse does not include love//feelings. It only include ::--feeling, shelter, dresses, children, Number of days etc etc etc.*
*It is never possible for 2 different women to behave the same way. Even if they are identical twins.. We can not rule out the factor called INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCE.*
*Allah SWA knows that no man can ever love or have the same feelings among his wives. And am very sure 100% that no man on earth is up to the prophet Muhammad SAW interms of everything.*
*Prophet Muhammad SAW was asked::-- " Among ur wives//women, who did u love most? He replied - Nana Aisha... He was asked again, Among all men, who did u love most? He replied - Nana Aisha's father ((Abubakar sadeeq))."*
*SAUDAT ((RA))... Is one of the prophet Muhammad's wife. Prophet married her b4 Nana Aisha.*
*My fellow women... I think I still remember a verse revealed in the glorious Qur'an about SAUDAT and prophet Muhammad SAW.*
*Suratul Nisai - verse 128 :--*
ﻭﺍﻥ ﺍﻣﺮﺍﺕ ﺧﺎﻓﺖ ﻣﻦ ﺑﻌﻠﻬﺎ ﻧﺸﻮﺍﺍﻭﻋﺮﺍﺿﺎ ﻓﻼ ﺧﻨﺎﺡ ﻋﻠﻴﻬﻤﺎﺍﻥ ﻳﺼﻠﺤﺎ ﺑﻴﻨﻬﻤﺎﺻﻠﺤﺎ ﻭﺍﻟﺼﻠﺢ ﺧﻴﺮ ﻭﺍﺣﻀﺮﺕ ﺍﻻﺍ ﻧﻔﺲ ﺍﻟﺸﺢ ﻭﺍﻥ ﺗﺤﺴﻨﻮﺍ ﻭﺗﺘﻘﻮﺍ ﻓﺎﻥ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻛﺎﻥ ﺑﻤﺎ ﺗﻌﻤﻠﻮﻥ ﺧﺒﻴﺮﺍ
*TRANSLATION*
*And if a woman fears from her husband, contempt or evasion,, there is no SIN upon them if they make terms of settlement between themselves - and settlement is BEST. And present in human souls is stinginess. But if u do good and fear Allah - then, indeed Allah is ever, what u do, acquainted.*
*My fellow women... After the marriage of Nana Aisha,,, SAUDAT noticed a lot of changes interms of love and feelings prophet Muhammad SAW have for her when compared to that of Nana Aisha. SAUDAT was afraid of loosing prophet Muhammad SAW. She taught prophet Muhammad SAW will end up divorcing her. She now quickly called on the prophet Muhammad SAW not to divorce her but SAUDAT SURRENDER the days meant for her for prophet Muhammad SAW to be sleeping in Nana Aisha's room. Then Allah revealed the above. Atleast, to approve the terms of settlement between SAUDAT and prophet Muhammad SAW. Allah SWA knows that, it is NEVER POSSIBLE for prophet Muhammad SAW to love or feel for SAUDAT and Nana Aisha equally 50-50.*
*Ya Salaam. If it where u, how would u handle this situation??? Are u better than SAUDAT ??? Or is ur husband better than prophet Muhammad SAW???*
*Are these not enough signals to the point am giving about the translation of the above verse???*
*WOMEN HARDLY ESCAPE WHAT THEY ARE AFRAID OF*
*2 different stories below may touch u.*
*STORY ONE:-- A working class friend of mine with 3 children advised me few years back not to help my husband with a peny in running the family. I asked her why she said this. She replied me that,, if u help men in running the family responsibilities, they will gain STRENGTH to marry another woman. But to my surprise,, few months after that conversation, she called me that her husband wants to marry second wife tomorrow. And I asked her the following questions::--*
*Question:- Have u started helping in the family responsibilities???*
*Answer::-- For where..!!!. God forbid.*
*Question::-- Has he gotten another better job???*
*Answer::-- For where..!!!. He was even demoted in his place of work last 3 months ago.*
*Question::-- Did u people quarrelle???*
*Answer::-- Not even once for the past 4 months.*
*Question::-- Then why???*
*Answer::-- leave the idiot.*
*My fellow women... If ur husband wants to marry another wife, no matter his financial constraints, he will do it... And no matter ur security tactics or ur close marking,, if he mean to do it. He will.*
*STORY TWO::-- This happened to me ((my self)). Few years back my first husband {may his soul rest in peace} whom I got my first 3 kids with, once told me that,, "" he wants to help a poor widow with 2 kids by marrying her as a second wife. I changed completely since that day with him. When he noticed that he could not longer see my face again. He called me and told that he has dropped//
cancelled the second wife issue. And since that day,, I changed back to who I was.*
*As Allah SWA will show me small lesson in life,,, Exactly 2 weeks after,, he came back in the evening complaining of slight headache. I told him to lay down. It could be a stress. B4 two hours, I went to c how he was fairing. He was already dead. Leaving me (26years old) with 3 kids.*
*Few months after, our landlord ejected us from his house just bcos we could not afford to pay. We moved into my brother's house. The trouble of my brother's wife became so unbearable that, I decided to re-marry again. Apart from that, am still 26. I need a man in my life. But who will marry me??? A man who is not yet marry??? This is not 90% possible.*
*Every men who came to seek for my hand in marriage used to be prevented by their wife at home.*
*To cut the long story Short, another married man came again. I fell in love with him. But his wife at home became another obstacle. I cried day and night. I fasted during the day and pray at mid-night crying to Allah to change the mind of that woman.*
*Few weeks later, the man came and told me that, his wife asked him to bring me. I asked him. Has she agree??? He said No. I started crying again. But finally i summoned my courage to go and c her. Reaching there. The wife came out and huged me crying telling me that she has agreed. Not bcos she like it but bcos, she don't know what will happen to her tomorrow if she deny me.*
*I cried again regrating how I denied someone this golden opportunity.*
*WOMEN's FEAR ABOUT SECOND WIFE OF A THING*
*-- My husband will not be able to love me again as he used to. Or he will not love us equally 50-50.. The verse u read above should remove this worry from ur mind.*
*-- I am going to loose my husband to another woman. Did u still remember the story of SAUDAT and prophet Muhammad SAW??? Even if u noticed he is going to cheat on u OR he is cheating on u. Leave him to Allah. He will be resurrected paralysed in the day of judgment. And this means that he is not entering jannah.*
*-- The woman coming in will throw me out of the house with charms. If u sincerely asked Allah to give ur husband a good woman anytime he is ready to marry again. Allah SWA will not turn ur DU'A down. And if u are strong in faith,, Not only charms,, Wallahi not even JUJU will have a positive impact on u.*
*-- We are going to be sharing monthly resources with the woman coming in. Did u still remember the hadith i quoted in the beginning of this message??? Love for others what u love for Urself. Don't be too selfish... U, ur daughters, sisters could be a victim tomorrow.*
*-- I can not share inheritance with any woman after the death of my husband. Who told u who will die last? Or who told u that inheritance last?*
*WHAT HAPPEN TO OUR CONSCIENCE AS WOMEN???*
*1.. Did we not feel for widows who lost their husbands at younger ages???*
*2.. Did we think about number of girls to boys given birth to everyday???*
*3.. Did we think about death rate between male and female??? Men die more.*
*4.. Did we sometimes feel for women//ladies outside not yet married??? And how they manage their sexual urge???*
*5.. Feeding and drinking is compulsory in life. The same thing sexual intercourse. Islamically,, In terms of sexual huge,, women take 95% while men take only 5%. Fear of Allah can never stop the feelings when it strikes. Just like fear of Allah can never stop one from feeling hungry.*
*TWO LESSONS THE HISTORY OF PROPHET MUHAMMAD SAW AND HIS WIVES.*
*Your husband is not as Pious as prophet Muhammad SAW. We have read that, Nana Aisha (RA) narrated that "" there used to be months where they don't cook food in prophet Muhammad's house. They only survive on water and dates. Allah made this to prophet Muhammad so that we learn lesson from it. If Allah so wish,, HE can make the prophet Muhammad the most richest on earth.*
*So, my fellow women... Because your husband have wake up without money and food for the family, should not be seen as a problem.*
*Whatever little challenges u may face OR facing in your marriage,,, that should not push u to seek for divorce. Pick lessons from the story of SAUDAT and prophet Muhammad SAW. Marriage is an act of IBADAH and only Allah can reward u with jannah.*
*May Allah guide us to the right path

WHAT A PITY

WHAT A PITY !!!
A PITY to THOSE who know the right thing but still, for their SELFISH INTEREST follow the wrong path.
Those who SEE the SUNNAH of the PROPHET as OLD FASHIONED.
And FEMALES who see the MOTHER of the BELIEVERS as being archaic & can't EMULATE them
Oh! WHAT A LOSS!
A PITY to MALES who walk DRAGGING their GARMENTS below their ANKLE.
When The Prophet ﺻﻠﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭﺳﻠﻢ said;
ﺣَﺪَّﺛَﻨَﺎ ﺁﺩَﻡُ، ﺣَﺪَّﺛَﻨَﺎ ﺷُﻌْﺒَﺔُ، ﺣَﺪَّﺛَﻨَﺎ ﺳَﻌِﻴﺪُ ﺑْﻦُ ﺃَﺑِﻲ ﺳَﻌِﻴﺪٍ ﺍﻟْﻤَﻘْﺒُﺮِﻱُّ، ﻋَﻦْ ﺃَﺑِﻲ ﻫُﺮَﻳْﺮَﺓَ ـ ﺭﺿﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻨﻪ ـ ﻋَﻦِ ﺍﻟﻨَّﺒِﻲِّ ﺻﻠﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭﺳﻠﻢ ﻗَﺎﻝَ
ﻣَﺎ ﺃَﺳْﻔَﻞَ ﻣِﻦَ ﺍﻟْﻜَﻌْﺒَﻴْﻦِ ﻣِﻦَ ﺍﻹِﺯَﺍﺭِ ﻓَﻔِﻲ ﺍﻟﻨَّﺎﺭِ " Narrated Abu Huraira:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet ( ﷺ) said, "The part of an Izar which hangs below the ankles is in the Fire."
Sahih al-Bukhari 5787
ﺃَﺧْﺒَﺮَﻧَﺎ ﺑِﺸْﺮُ ﺑْﻦُ ﺧَﺎﻟِﺪٍ، ﻗَﺎﻝَ ﺣَﺪَّﺛَﻨَﺎ ﻏُﻨْﺪَﺭٌ، ﻋَﻦْ ﺷُﻌْﺒَﺔَ، ﻗَﺎﻝَ ﺳَﻤِﻌْﺖُ ﺳُﻠَﻴْﻤَﺎﻥَ، - ﻭَﻫُﻮَ ﺍﻷَﻋْﻤَﺶُ - ﻋَﻦْ ﺳُﻠَﻴْﻤَﺎﻥَ ﺑْﻦِ ﻣُﺴْﻬِﺮٍ، ﻋَﻦْ ﺧَﺮَﺷَﺔَ ﺑْﻦِ ﺍﻟْﺤُﺮِّ، ﻋَﻦْ ﺃَﺑِﻲ ﺫَﺭٍّ، ﻗَﺎﻝَ ﻗَﺎﻝَ ﺭَﺳُﻮﻝُ ﺍﻟﻠَّﻪِ ﺻﻠﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭﺳﻠﻢ
ﺛَﻼَﺛَﺔٌ ﻻَ ﻳُﻜَﻠِّﻤُﻬُﻢُ ﺍﻟﻠَّﻪُ ﻋَﺰَّ ﻭَﺟَﻞَّ ﻳَﻮْﻡَ ﺍﻟْﻘِﻴَﺎﻣَﺔِ ﻭَﻻَ ﻳَﻨْﻈُﺮُ ﺇِﻟَﻴْﻬِﻢْ ﻭَﻻَ ﻳُﺰَﻛِّﻴﻬِﻢْ ﻭَﻟَﻬُﻢْ ﻋَﺬَﺍﺏٌ ﺃَﻟِﻴﻢٌ ﺍﻟْﻤَﻨَّﺎﻥُ ﺑِﻤَﺎ ﺃَﻋْﻄَﻰ ﻭَﺍﻟْﻤُﺴْﺒِﻞُ ﺇِﺯَﺍﺭَﻩُ ﻭَﺍﻟْﻤُﻨَﻔِّﻖُ ﺳِﻠْﻌَﺘَﻪُ ﺑِﺎﻟْﺤَﻠِﻒِ ﺍﻟْﻜَﺎﺫِﺏِ "
It was narrated that Abu Dharr said:
"The Messenger of Allah said: "There are three to whom of Allah will not speak on the Day of Resurrection or look at them or purify them, and theirs will be a painful torment: the one who reminds people of what he has given them, the one who lets his garment hang beneath his ankles, and a vendor who tries to sell his product by means of false oaths."
Sahih (Darussalam)
Sunan an-Nasa'i 2564
In-book : Book 23, Hadith 130
_I really pity those who SHAKE the OPPOSITE SEX and say; “It's just a SIGN of FRIENDSHIP“ WHAT IGNORANCE! Adding to a Perfect RELIGION?_
A PITY to those who KNOW what is HARAM (Forbidden by Allah) & still SAY;“ I will REPENT TOMORROW " have u been GUARANTEED the end of TODAY?
People who PRAY So lawful Isha may not end up hearing the Adhaan of Fajr!
_A PITY to FEMALES carrying a HAIR like a CAMEL HUMP on their heads._
_FEMALES who PLUCK their EYEBROW, FIX their EYELASHES & those who are DRESSED but it is as though they are NAKED!_
FEMALES who DRESS to FLAUNT & SHOW-OFF their BEAUTY to the WORLD. FEMALES who when SEEN are asked “are you a MUSLIM"?
WHAT A LOST SOUL!
_A PITY on the DAY when we shall be QUESTIONED in our GRAVES_.
When the GRAVE will crush BONES without PITY.
When we will SHOUT for HELP but no one to RESCUE.
When MAN will WISH to b given a last CHANCE
OH! When the SUN will rise from the WEST,
Good DEEDS then will be of no USE.
Our ISTIGFAAR will be ORDINARY WORDS.
The day when the TRUMPET shall BLOW.
When MAN shall FLEE from his own FAMILY.
EVERYONE that day will have enough to BEAR.
_Some FACES will be BRIGHT and REJOICING while some will of course be DARKENED (those whom Allah will reject)_.
A FITTING RECOMPENSE!!
For VERILY we have been WARNED.
When the disbelievers will say; “Wow!, I wish that I were DUST"!
Now I understand why the Prophet will stay all NIGHT praying for his Ummah.
Just look at us, we are so LOST!
AND THIS IS ENOUGH AN ADMONITION FOR THOSE WHO BELIEVE
_STOP, REFLECT AND REPENT_

Abu Dhar Ahmad

BACKSTAB

BACKSTAB   She loved with all!trusted like a child,confessing like a saint,believed all,accepted all.Such a naivety!what is the reward?A backstab.So much pain and confusion.confused and drained,from backstab a lesson learnt but tears can't stop the pain.The trust betrayed,the secret exposed,kindness bruised,friendship scorned,denial can't change the reality.Don't be disappointed the only feeling that will never hurt you is the one share for ALLAH sake.Embace reality,smile and move on.A backstab is just a lesson of life.

Abdullah ibn Amr ibnp "As said: " I do not know whether it's fourty days, month or years! According Nawas ibn sam'an's narration, one of his days will be like a year, one wullbe like a year, one will be like a month, one will be like a weak, and the rest of his days will be like your average age.
