THE THREE KNOTS FROM SHAYTAN

Narrated Abu Huraira:

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Satan puts three knots at the back of the head of any of you if he is asleep. On every knot he reads and exhales the following words, 'The night is long, so stay asleep.' When one wakes up and remembers Allah, one knot is undone; and when one performs ablution, the second knot is undone, and when one prays the third knot is undone and one gets up energetic with a good heart in the morning; otherwise one gets up lazy and with a mischievous heart."

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ يَعْقِدُ الشَّيْطَانُ عَلَى قَافِيَةِ رَأْسِ أَحَدِكُمْ إِذَا هُوَ نَامَ ثَلاَثَ عُقَدٍ، يَضْرِبُ كُلَّ عُقْدَةٍ عَلَيْكَ لَيْلٌ طَوِيلٌ فَارْقُدْ، فَإِنِ اسْتَيْقَظَ فَذَكَرَ اللَّهَ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ، فَإِنْ تَوَضَّأَ انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ، فَإِنْ صَلَّى انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ فَأَصْبَحَ نَشِيطًا طَيِّبَ النَّفْسِ، وَإِلاَّ أَصْبَحَ خَبِيثَ النَّفْسِ كَسْلاَنَ ‏"‌‏.‏

How to untie the knots of shaytan

Every believer wishes to please Allah Ta’ala by doing good and staying away from wrong. Shaytan on the other hand wants us to make Allah Ta’ala unhappy.

From a hadeeth of our beloved Nabi ﷺ we learn that every night while we sleep, shaytan ties 3 knots at the back of our heads. He does this so that he can take control over us the following day and make us do wrong actions.

If we leave these knots we will feel very lazy and we will get lots of thoughts to do wrong things.

If however, we do three things, we will be freed from the influence of shaytan, feel more energetic and happy and feel like doing good actions. Let’s learn how to untie and remove all of these knots one by one every morning.

Untie and remove the first knot:

When we wake up read the basic waking up dua and in addition to this, learn and read any other duas we know too. There are many duas which have a lot of benefits and should be learnt. This will remove the first knot.

Untie and remove the second knot:

After waking up, perform wudhu. We normally brush our teeth and wash our face. With this, we just have to wash our arms and legs and do masah over the head. This will remove the second knot.

Untie and remove the third knot:

After wudhu, if it is not makrooh time, then perform 2 rak’at salah. If it’s the middle of the night, perform tahajjud, if it’s Fajr time, perform Fajr salaah, if it’s mid-morning then 2 rak’at nafl salah. This will remove the third knot.

🔖Brotherhood is more precious than wealth and dunyā…

May Allaah grant us forever guidance on the one and only straight path . Aameen

Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:

“Charity is due upon every joint of the people for every day upon which the sun rises.
Justly reconciling two people is charity.
Helping a man with his animal and lifting his luggage upon it is charity.
A kind word is charity.
Every step that you take towards the mosque is charity, and
removing harmful things from the road is charity.”

[Sahih al-Bukhari 2989, Sahih Muslim 1009]

Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله:

“He who has tested the servant is the Most Wise, the Most Merciful and He did not test him with the affliction to destroy, punish or overwhelm him. Rather, the affliction is merely a test of his patience, his contentment with Allāh and his faith.”

In addition Allāh wants to hear the servant’s pleas, supplications and humility before him, his seeking refuge with Him, his hearts humility before Him and his explaining His sadness to Him (alone).”

[Timeless Seeds of Advice, Pg. 15]

Upon the authority of Abu Hurairah [رضي الله عنه] who said the Messenger of Allah [ﷺ] said:

❝‘One hundred thousand dirham has been out done by one dirham!’

So they [the companions] said: ‘and How?’

He said: ‘A man had [only] two dirham and he gave charity with one of them, while another man turned towards his abundant merchandise and took from it one hundred thousand dirham and gave it in charity.’❞

[Collected By Ahmad, (No. 8916) | Nasaa’i, (No. 2527) | Declared ‘Hasan’ By Shaykh al-Albaani]

Shaykh al-Islām Ibn Taymiyyah رحمه الله said:

"Listening to the Qur’an is the means to obtaining Mercy from Allāh."

[al-Istiqamah | Pg. 284]

Life is better when you are happy, but life is at its best when others are happy because of you: Be faithful in touching other's hearts. Be an inspiration. Nothing in nature lives for itself;.Rivers do not drink their own water. Trees do not eat their own fruits. The Sun does not shine for itself and Flowers do not spread their fragrance for themselves. Living for others is a rule of nature. We were all born to help one another. No matter how difficult the situation you find yourself in, Still do good to others. Do Good for ALLAHs sake ...make ALLAH reward you with Goodness.. Aamin 🤲🏿

🌺Complain to Allaah alone!
🎓By Shaikh al-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah

“al-Sabr al-Jameel” (the good patience الصَّبْرُ الْجَمِيلُ) is that patience in which there is no complaining (towards the creation). Yaqoob عليه السلام said:

﴿إنَّمَا أَشْكُو بَثِّي وَحُزْنِي إلَى اللَّهِ﴾

{I only complain of my grief and sorrow to Allaah}
📚[Surah Yusuf (12): 86]

Even though he also said:

﴿فَصَبْرٌ جَمِيلٌ وَاللَّهُ الْمُسْتَعَانُ عَلَى مَا تَصِفُونَ﴾

{So (for me) patience is most fitting. And it is Allah (Alone) Whose help can be sought against that which you assert}
📚[Surah Yusuf (12): 18]

Complaining to Allaah (about the harm that has befallen you) does not contradict or negate “the good patience”.

And whenever Umar Ibn al-Khattaab رضي الله عنه used to recite in the Fajr prayer:

﴿إِنَّمَا أَشْكُو بَثِّي وَحُزْنِي إِلَى اللَّـهِ وَأَعْلَمُ مِنَ اللَّـهِ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ﴾

{I only complain of my grief and sorrow to Allaah and I know from Allaah what you do not know}
📚[Surah Yusuf (12): 86]

He used to weep so profusely that his sobbing would be heard in the last rows.

(Complain to the Creator) instead of complaining to the creation!

(Complaining to the Creator is permissible) because the one who is complaining is doing so based on the situation he is in, either (beseeching Allaah) to remove the thing which is harming him, or seeking (from Allaah) that which is beneficial for him. A person has been commanded to beseech the Creator instead of the creation. Allaah تعالى said:

﴿فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ فَانصَبْ * وَإِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَارْغَب﴾

{So when you have finished (from your occupation), then stand up for Allaah’s worship (i.e. stand up for prayer). And to your Lord (Alone) turn (all your intentions and hopes and) your invocations.}
📚[Surah al-Sharh (94): 7-8]

And the Prophet ﷺ said to Ibn Abbaas رضي الله عنهما: ❝If you ask, then ask Allaah [alone]; and if you seek help, then seek help from Allaah [alone].❞
📚[Sunan al-Tirmidhee (2516) and graded as “Saheeh” by Shaikh al-Albaanee]

And it is a must that a person should adhere to two things:
1) To do that which he has been commanded to do and to shun that which has been prohibited.
2) And to be patient when a thing which has Decreed befalls him.

The first is from Taqwaa (piety) and the second is patience (Sabr).

📚[Majmoo al-Fataawa of Ibn Taymiyyah (10/666-667)]

🌴🌴🌴

👉[TN: The Prophet ﷺ also said to Ibn `Abbaas رضي الله عنهما: ❝And know that what has passed you by [and you have failed to attain] was not going to befall you, and what has befallen you was not going to pass you by. And know that victory comes with patience, and relief after affliction, and ease after hardship.❞ 📚[Mustadrak of al-Haakim (6304)]

Feeling Like a Stranger Amongst the People?

Ibn al Qayyim رحمه الله said:

The real Islam is extremely strange, and its adherents are the strangest of strangers amongst the people”

(Madārij-us-Sālikīn)

Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله said:

"Congratulating (on Christmas) is worse of a sin than congratulating drinking alcohol, killing, zina etc."

[Ahkām, 1/441]

STOP and REFLECT!!! Are a few fleeting moments of celebration worth putting your akhira at risk? Be firm in your deen, avoid what Allah has forbidden, and stand strong in your Islamic identity. Christmas is NOT for Muslims, and it NEVER will be. ☝🏻

Įbn al-Barq reported to us, saying: 'Amr įbn Abi Salamah narrated to us, saying:
I heard al-Awza'i say:
"Whoever honors a person of innovation has indeed contributed to the destruction of Islam.”

-[Dhamm al-Kalam wa Ahlihi by al-Imam Abi Ismail al-Harawi 4/169]

Ibn Umar reported: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Whoever Imitates a people is one of them." (Sunan Abi Dawud 4031)

If somebody hurts you, wrongs you, remember this ayah:

Umar bin al-Khattab (Radiy'Allahu'anhu) said,
"I have seen all types of friends but I never found a friend better than safeguarding the tongue; I have seen all types of clothes but I never found clothes better than God-consciousness; I have seen all types of wealth but I never found wealth better than contentment; I have seen all types of good deeds but I never found a good deed better than giving good advice; and I have seen all types of food and I never found food more delicious than patience."

Preparing for the day of Judgement by Ibn Hajr al-Asqalani, p.34

Remember this Ayah before u say "Merry Christmas" to a Christian. Instead just say "Good morning or Good afternoon".

‎Seek Forgiveness From All Oppression Before You Meet Your Lord.

‎ALLAH عز وجل says:

‎وَقَدْ خَابَ مَنْ حَمَلَ ظُلْمًا
‎"And the one who carries a burden of oppression (on the Day Of Judgement) will surely be lost and doomed."

QURAN:‎(20:111)
