I was in the womb of my mother alone. I entered this world alone. I will die alone. I will enter my grave alone. I will be questioned (in my grave) alone. If I enter Paradise, I will enter it alone.

I will be resurrected from my grave alone. I will be taken to account alone.

May Allaah turn our pains and sorrows into good deeds that will weigh heavy on the Day of Judgement. Allaahumma aameen.

Imam Ibn Qayyim رحمه الله said,
“Allah tests His servant with trials when his good deeds are not sufficient to reach a certain rank in Paradise. These trials are a means by which Allah purifies the servant and raises him to that rank.” [Madarij As-Salikin]
based on what the Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم said,
“When Allah has decreed a rank for someone which he has not attained by his good deeds, He afflicts him in his body, or his wealth or his children. Then, He enables him to endure that, until He makes him reach the rank decreed for him by Allah.”
[Jami` at-Tirmidhi, Book 36, Hadith 100]

💵[The Awesome Reward of Loaning Money & Giving Extra Time for Repayment]
1️⃣From Sulayman ibn Buraidah, from his father, (Buraydah b. Husayb رضي الله عنه) who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say:
"مَنْ أَنْظَرَ مُعْسِرًا فَلَهُ بِكُلِّ يَوْمٍ مِثْلَهُ صَدَقَةٌ،
"Whoever gives respite to an insolvent person, he will have charity equal to it for each day.”
Then I heard him say:
مَنْ أَنْظَرَ مُعْسِرًا فَلَهُ بِكُلِّ يَوْمٍ مِثْلَيْهِ صَدَقَةٌ،
“Whoever gives respite to an insolvent person, he will have charity double to it for each day.”
I said: I heard you, O Messenger of Allah, say: “Whoever gives respite to an insolvent person, he will have charity equal to it for each day
Then I heard you say: Whoever gives respite to an insolvent person, he will have charity double for each day”
He (ﷺ) said:
لَهُ بِكُلِّ يَوْمٍ صَدَقَةٌ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَحِلَّ الدَّيْنُ فَإِذَا حَلَّ الدَّيْنُ فَأَنْظَرَهُ فَلَهُ بِكُلِّ يَوْمٍ مِثْلَيْهِ صَدَقَةٌ"
“He will have charity for each day before the debt becomes due, and when the debt becomes due and he gives respite, he will have double charity for each day."
[Reported by Ahmad and Ibn Mājah; graded Sahih by Al Albānī in As-Silsilah As-Saheehah" (86)]
2️⃣And from Abu Qatadah (رضي الله عنه):
He sought a debtor who hid from him, then he found him and he said, "I am insolvent." He said, "By Allah?" He said, "By Allah."
He said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say:
"مَنْ سَرَّهُ أَنْ يُنْجِيَهُ اللَّهُ مِنْ كَرْبِ يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ فَلْيُنَفِّسْ عَنْ مُعْسِرٍ أَوْ يَضَعْ عَنْهُ"
“Whoever is pleased that Allah saves him from the distress of the Day of Resurrection, let him give respite to an insolvent person or reduce his debt."
[Saheeh At-Targhib Wat-Tarheeb (903)]
In summary, these two hadīth demonstrate a few amazing rewards connected to loaning money:
1️⃣ For every day between the loan and the set date for its repayment, the lender is rewarded its amount in charity.
2️⃣If the debtor is insolvent (due to difficult circumstances), the lender is rewarded twice its amount for every day that he waits for repayment.
3️⃣ By relieving the debt by giving extra time, lessening its amount or forgiving the debt, the lender will be spared from distress on the day of Judgment.

A disturbing trend that needs correction in the Muslim community
Some people come to a funeral and expect to be given a meal by the deceased’s family. Worse than this are those who reside in the same town as the deceased and expect to be fed at the funeral home.
A funeral home is not a place for feasting, dining, partying and catering. The immediate family of the deceased is put through difficulty because they are forced to see to the guests.
Exorbitant sums of money have to be forked out for feeding guests. Nowadays, caterers charge around R100 per head. So, to feed 200 people a single meal you looking at R20 000 excluding drinks, tea, paper plates, etc. Not everyone can afford this. Sometimes, the money for this is taken from the deceased’s estate which becomes problematic when all the inheritors have not given permission or if inheritors are minors.
Even during the days after the funeral and the first weekend many people come to visit the family of the deceased. Many expect to be given a meal. This is not correct. Avoid going at meal times. Console the family and leave.
Also, when the focus is on food and meals, there is no reciting of duas, dhikrullah, tilawah etc. which is sent as isaaluth thawaab for the deceased.
We need to be considerate.
A funeral needs to remind us of the temporary nature of life. It should be a lesson for us to prepare for the aakhirah. It should not be an event of merry-making.

FIVE BENEFITS OF PRAYING SALAT AL DUHA
■1. It fulfills sadaqah (charity) on every joint in your body."In the morning every single joint of yours must pay a sadaqah (charity).
▪︎Every SubhanAllah is a sadaqah,
▪︎Every Alhamdulillah is a sadaqah,
▪︎Every La Ilaha Illa Allah is a sadaqah,
▪︎Every Allahu Akbar is a sadaqah,
▪︎Every commanding good is a sadaqah, and ▪︎Every forbidding evil is a sadaqah, and all this is accomplished through two rak'ats one can pray in Duha." [Muslim]
■2. It is the prayer of the righteous. "None is diligent in keeping Salat al-Duha except one who is oft-repentent (awwab), and it is the prayer of the oft-repentent (wa hiya Salat al-Awwabin)." [Ibn Khuzaymah, sahih according to the conditions of Imam Muslim]
■3. It was an advice from the Messenger ﷺ himself. Abu Hurayrah: "My beloved (the Messenger) instructed me never to leave three things until I die:
▪︎Fasting three days of the month,
▪︎Praying Salat al-Witr before sleep, and ▪︎Praying the 2 rak
■5. Making it a habit leads to forgiveness of one's sins. "Whoever regularly prays the two rak'ats of Duha, his sins are forgiven even if they are as numerous as the foam of the sea." [Tirmidhi, Ahmad, Ibn Majah]
It's a simple 2 rak'ahs that's prayed any time after the sun rises until just before Dhuhr prayer.
Make it a lifelong habit and encourage your family and friends to do so as well.
May Allah make us of those who benefit from what we learn.

■4. If performed after remembering Allah from the time of Fajr prayer, it's equivalent to the complete reward of Hajj & Umrah. "Whoever prays the Fajr prayer then sits in his place of prayer remembering Allah until sunrise, then prays two rakats of Duha, shall be rewarded as if he had performed Hajj and Umrah, with a reward that is complete, complete." [Tirmidhi, hasan] (Note: This doesn't nullify the requirement to perform Hajj).■5. Making it a habit leads to forgiveness of one's sins.

Who is the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ? There is no leader who showed greater humility and kindness than him.
He would share simple food with the weak. He accepted the invitation of those who had nothing. He would visit the ill and go to them even if it was barefooted. He would attend to the needs of slaves and sit with them. In a time women were disrespected, he raised their ranks, replied to their worries, and fixed their problems. In war, he would have eaten the least but he would serve his companions and not eat until they finished and were full. He would go hungry but wouldn't let others feel discomfort. He was fully accessible to the community. He did things himself. He didn't like people serving him. He partook in community projects and helped in building Masjids himself. He asked about everyone and wanted to know about them, and he cared about those who had nobody.

Allah says in surah al-A'laa [87]:

"He has succeeded, the one who gives in charity * and mentions the name of his Lord and prays" (14-15)
Imam al-Qurtubi brought the following narration in part of his tafsir of this ayah:
[قوله تعالى : قد أفلح من تزكى وذكر اسم ربه فصلى ... وروى عنه [يعني عن ابن عباس] عطاء قال : نزلت في عثمان بن عفان - رضي الله عنه - قال : كان بالمدينة منافق كانت له نخلة بالمدينة ، مائلة في دار رجل من الأنصار ، إذا هبت الرياح أسقطت البسر والرطب إلى دار الأنصاري ، فيأكل هو وعياله ، فخاصمه المنافق فشكا ذلك إلى رسول الله - صلى الله عليه وسلم - فأرسل إلى المنافق وهو لا يعلم نفاقه ، فقال : " إن أخاك الأنصاري ذكر أن بسرك ورطبك يقع إلى منزله ، فيأكل هو وعياله ، فهل لك أن أعطيك نخلة في الجنة بدلها " ؟ فقال : أبيع عاجلا بآجل لا أفعل . فذكروا أن عثمان بن عفان أعطاه حائطا من نخل بدل نخلته ففيه نزلت قد أفلح من تزكى . ونزلت في المنافق ويتجنبها الأشقى .]
'Ataa relayed that ibn 'Abbaas said: these ayaat are about 'Uthman ibn 'Affan.
He said: There was a munafiq in al-Madinah who had a date tree which hung over of house of an Ansari man. When the winds would blow it would knock down both unripe and ripe dates into the property of the Ansari man, which he and those under his care would then eat. The munafiq argued with him about this situation, so the Ansari man complained about this to Allah's Messenger. The Prophet sent for the munafiq, not knowing that he was a munafiq, and said, "This Ansari brother of yours mentioned that your unripe and ripe dates fell into his property and so he and his dependents ate them. So what would say if I were to give you a date tree in Jannah in exchange for that date tree?" The munafiq replied, "That I would sell right now for something else later? I will not do that!" I was told that 'Uthman ibn 'Affan gave him a whole orchard of date trees in exchange for that one date tree of his. So
[قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ ]
"He has succeeded, the one who gives in charity"

Ahmad (23804), Abu Dawud (3111) and an-Nasa’i (1846) narrated from Jabir ibn ‘Atik رضي الله عنه that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “What do you consider to be martyrdom?” They said: Being killed in Allah’s cause. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Martyrdom is seven things besides being killed in Allah’s cause. The one who dies of the plague is a martyr, the one who drowns is a martyr, the one who dies of pleurisy is a martyr, the one who dies of a stomach disease is a martyr, the one who is burned to death is a martyr, the one who dies beneath a collapsed building is a martyr, and the woman who dies because of pregnancy and childbirth is a martyr.”
Classed as sahih by al-Albani in Sahih Abi Dawud.
An-Nawawi رحمه الله said:
The scholars said: These types of death are only regarded as martyrdom, by the grace of Allah, may He be exalted, because they are so difficult and painful.
The scholars said: What is meant by the martyrdom of all these people, except for the one who is killed in Allah’s cause, is that in the hereafter they will have the same reward as the martyrs. In this world, however, they should be washed (ghusl) and the funeral prayer should be offered for them.

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “There will come to the people years of treachery, when the liar will be regarded as honest, and the honest man will be regarded as a liar; the traitor will be regarded as faithful, and the faithful man will be regarded as a traitor; and the Ruwaibidah will decide matters.’ It was said: ‘Who are the Ruwaibidah?’ He said: ‘Vile and base men who control the affairs of the people.’”

This is what Hadiths say about Ghazwatul-Hind. 🏴🇮🇳
It was narrated from Abu Huraira (رضي الله عنه) that Prophet Muhammad ﷺ promised us that we would invade India (Ghazwa-E-Hind). If i live to see that, i will sacrifice myself and my wealth. If i am killed, i will be one of the best of the martyrs, and if i am back, i will be Abu Huraira-Al-Muharrar (the one freed from fire).
[Sunan An-Nisai 1:25:3175]
Narrated by Thawban (رضي الله عنه) the freed slave of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, said: The Prophet ﷺ said, There are two groups of my Ummah whom Allah will free from the fire: The group that invades India, and the group that will be with Isa Ibn Maryam (Peace be upon him).
[Sunan an-Nisa'i 3175, Grade: Hasan Darussalam]
Narrated from Abu Huraira (رضي الله عنه) that Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said: Definitely, one of your troop would do war with Hindustan, Allah would grant success to those warriors, as far as they would bring their kings by dragging them in chains/fetters. And Allah would forgive those warriors (by the Blessing of this great war). And when those Muslims would return, they would find Hazrat Isa Ibn Maryam(ءليه اسلام) in Syria.
[Naeem Bin Hammad in Kitab Al-Fitan, number is not known but some Muhaddithun said it's chain is mixed with both sahih setta and weak]
Hazrat Kaab (رضي الله عنه) reported the Prophet ﷺ said: A King of Jerusalem (Bait-ul-Muqaddas) would make troops move forward towards India. The warriors would destroy the land of Hind; would possess its treasures, then King would use those treasures for the décor of Jerusalem. That troops would bring the Indian kings in front of King (of Jerusalem). His warriors by King’s order would conquer all the area between East & West. And would stay in India till the issue of Dajjal”.
[Naeem Bin Hammad on Kitab Al-Fettan there's a hope this Hadith is Sahih Setta because he was the teacher of Imam Bukhari رحمه الله]
Safwan (رضي الله عنه) narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: “Some people of my Ummah will fight India, Allah would grant them success, even they would find the Indian kings being trapped in fetters. Allah would forgive those warriors. When they would move towards Syria, then would find Isa Ibn-e-Maryam (ءليه اسلام) over there”.
[The above-mentioned Hadith is also quoted by Naeem bin Hammad رحمه الله in his book ‘Al-fitan’. Moreover, this hadith is also not included in ‘Sehah Sitta. Additionally, Hadith number 4 and 5 exhibit that the Indians shall be conquered in the future and tells about the forgiveness of believers].
To recapitulate, Muslims have conquered India several times in the past. The Hadiths have become true and some of them going to be true in the future. Many hadiths showcase the name of Hazrat Isa ءليه اسلام which means the conquer of India would be at the time of the revival of Hazrat Isa (ءليه اسلام).
Ibn Kathir (رحمه الله) said: The Muslims invaded India at the time of Mu‘awiyah رضي الله عنه, in 44 AH, and there occurred things which will be explained below. It was also invaded by the great ruler Mahmoud ibn Sabuktagin, the ruler of Ghaznah who conquered India around 400 AH. He invaded the land, where he killed, took prisoners, and captured booty. He entered Somnath where he broke the greatest idol that they used to worship, and he captured its swords and necklaces. Then he returned, safe and victorious.

Hammood at-Tuwaijri (رحمه الله) said:
What is mentioned in the hadith of Abu Hurayrah (رضي الله عنه), which was narrated by Na‘eem ibn Hamaad رحمه الله, about the conquest of India has not happened up till now, but it will happen when ‘Isa Ibn Maryam (ءليه اسلام) descends, if the hadith that says that is saheeh. And Allah knows best. End quote.
