Reading The Qur'aan And The Place Of Prostration

Praise be to Allaah.​

It is mustahabb for the Muslim to read Qur’aan a great deal during Ramadhaan and to strive to complete it, but that is not obligatory, i.e., if he does not complete the Qur’aan he is not sinning, but he has missed out on a great deal of reward. The evidence for that is the report narrated by al-Bukhaari (4614) from Aboo Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) who said: Jibreel used to review the Qur’aan with the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) once every year, and he reviewed it with him twice in the year in which he passed away.

Also, we admonish everyone to be closed to the Qur'aan for Allaah's people are the people of the Qur'aan as seen in the prophetic narration below;

Ibn Maajah (215) and Ahmad (11870) narrated that Anas ibn Maalik (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “Verily Allaah has His own people among mankind.”​ They said: O Messenger of Allaah, who are they? He said: “They are the people of the Qur’an, Allaah’s own people and those who are closest to Him.”​ Classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in
Saheeh Ibn Maajah.

Al-Hakeem at-Tirmidhi said: This only applies to the reciter whose heart is free from ailments and his behaviour is free of misconduct. No one could be one of Allaah’s own people except one who is cleansed of sin both outwardly and inwardly, and does acts of obedience to Allaah. Then he will be one of Allaah’s own people.
End quote from Fayd al-Qadeer (3/87).

It is not sufficient for a person just to recite Qur’an in order to be one of the people of the Qur’an, unless he also acts in accordance with it, adheres to its limits and follows its teachings.

Now, in the Qur'aan, there are places where Its reader is expected and encouraged to prostrate. Like chapter 13verse14; the place has been underlined ________​. Its called sujood al-tilaawah.

It is of two ways;

On Salaah and Not On Salaah​

1 *Not On Salaah*: It is not essential to have wudoo’ for sujood al-tilaawah, according to the more correct of the two scholarly opinions, and there is no salaam or takbeer when coming up from it, according to the more correct of the two scholarly opinions.

It is prescribed to say takbeer when prostrating, because evidence to that effect is proven in the hadeeth of Ibn ‘Umar (may Allaah be pleased with him).

2 ​On Salaah​: It is obligatory to say takbeer when going down and when coming up, because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to do that in every movement of the prayer, and he said: “Pray as you have seen me praying.” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari in his Saheeh , 595).

What to say in the prostration​:

 "Allaahumma laka sajadtu wa bika aamantu wa laka aslamtu, sajada wajhi lilladhi khalaqahu wa sawwarahu wa shaqqa sam’ahu wa basarahu bi hawlihi wa quwwatihi, tabaarak Allaahu ahsan al-khaaliqeen"​

Thought for the day...

The tongue is a means to good or evil. What a delight it would be for those who remember ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA), seek HIS forgiveness, praise HIM, glorify HIM, give thanks to HIM, and repent with their tongues. And, what a disappointment it would be for those who use it to violate honour and sanctity and besmirch values. O fasting people, moisten your tongue with the remembrance of ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA), discipline it with Taqwa and cleanse it from disobedience.

It was narrated from Abu Hurayrah (RADIYALLAAHU ANHU) that the Prophet (ﷺ) ascended the minbar and said: "Aameen", "Aameen", "Aameen."

It was said to him, "O Messenger of ALLAAH (ﷺ), why did you do that?"

He said, "Jibreel (ALAHYI SALLAM) said to me, ‘If #Ramadaan comes and a person is not forgiven, he will enter Hell and ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA) will cast him far away. Say Aameen.’ So I said Aameen.

Then he said, ‘O Muhammad, if both or one of a person’s parents are alive and he does not honour them and he dies, he will enter Hell and ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA) will cast him far away. Say Aameen.’ So I said Aameen.

Then he said, ‘If you are mentioned in a person’s presence and he does not send blessings upon you and he dies, he will enter Hell and ALLAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA) will cast him far away. Say Aameen.’ So I said Aameen.”

*[Sahih Ibn Ḥibban 915]*

Let's Remind ourselves about the real nature of fasting, and that it is not just giving up food and drink, but it is a means of attaining taqwa (piety), and that it is an opportunity for sins to be forgiven and expiated.

We ask ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA) to accept our fast and all sort of ibadaah,. Aameen

Thought For The Day...✍

*The pillars of disbelief are four: Arrogance, Envy, Anger and Desire.*

Arrogance prevents the servant from obedience, envy prevents him from accepting advice, anger prevents him from justice, and desire prevents him from being devoted to worship. Removing the mountains from their places would be easier than removing these four from whoever was afflicted with them, especially if they have become solid bases, habits and firm characteristics. No deed will be worthy and no soul will be pure as long as this four are found on the servant. The more hard he works, the more these four will spoil his deeds.

Never Give Up

Whenever you're walking on the path of Allaah, you will receive a lot of hurt, rejection, rude comments, loneliness & even slander...

But if you keep walking for sake of Allaah, you will start to walk through the most beautiful journey of your life..

Where every move of Nature will swing your heart into saying Alhamdulillaah,
Where every problem starts to seem too small & you think subhanaAllaah,
Where strangers become your own family.

Where You now, know love through knowing Allaah...  Where you will find tears remembering a man who brought you close to Him...

Where you will stretch your hands forward to help someone in need,
Where at every step you take, you are a better human being... Where every day you learn something new.
Where at every moment, you find peace
surrounding you...

Filled with the love of Allaah, your heart feels the most beautiful things, But you still stand alone in the fear that it brings, Deep inside you know the mistakes that you've
made, Yet, it always brings a smile on your face when you Hear what
Allaah SWT says...

Your sins are replaced with good when you walk His way, And when you remember that, you fall on your knees begging Him never to let you go astray...
He is Always Bringing You out of Darkness into the Light, & You can't ever thank Him Enough for being a part of Your Life!!!

May Allaah make us strong 💪 💪 💪 on the Minhaaj of Salafus-soliheen (Allaahuma Ameen)
