Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله:
“Friday is the day when the people of Paradise will receive the ever-increasing reward. It is the day when they will see Allāh, the Exalted. Those who were the earliest to go to the mosque on Friday will be the first to receive this honor. Thus, the nearest to Allāh were those nearest to the Imam on Friday. The residents of Paradise are eager for Friday, the day of such increase, due to the honor they will receive on that day.”
[Zaad Al-Ma’ad | 1/59-65]

AL-JUMU’AH (FRIDAY)
Friday is called Al-Jumu'ah (الجمعة) because it is derived from Al-Jam' (الجمع), literally, gathering. The people of Islam gather weekly, on every Friday in the major places of worship.
It was during Friday when ALLĀH finished the creation, the sixth day, during which ALLĀH created the heavens and earth. During Friday, ALLĀH created Adam, and he was placed in Paradise, and ironically, it was a Friday when he was taken out of Paradise. It will be on a Friday when the Last Hour will commence.
There is an hour during Friday, wherein no faithful servant asks ALLĀH for something good, but ALLĀH will give him what he asked for. All of this is based upon Hadiths in the authentic collections.
In the ancient language Friday was called, al-'Urūbah (العروبة). It is a fact that previous nations were informed about Friday, but they were led astray from it. The Jews chose Saturday for their holy day, but Adam was not created on Saturday. The Christians chose Sunday, which is the day the creation was initiated. ALLĀH chose Friday for this Ummah, because it is the day the creation was finished.
Al-Bukhari and Muslim recorded that Abu Hurayrah said that the Messenger of ALLĀH said,
"We are the last (to come) but the first on the Day of Resurrection, though the former nations were given the Scriptures before us. And this was their day (Friday) the celebration of which was made compulsory for them, but they differed about it. So, ALLĀH gave us guidance to it, and all other people are coming after us:the Jews tomorrow and the Christians the day after tomorrow."
This is the wording of Al-Bukhari.
In another narration of Muslim;
"ALLĀH diverted those who were before us from Friday. For the Jews there was Saturday, and for the Christians there was Sunday. ALLĀH then brought us and guided us to Friday. HE made them; Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and it is in this order they will come after us on the Day of Resurrection. We are the last of among the people of this world and the first among the created to be judged on the Day of Resurrection."

Everyone's journey to Allah is unique.
Not everyone will take the same path, attend the same institute, wear the same style of hijab, grow the same length of beard, or interpret the text in the same way. Their journey might look different, but the destination remains the same: Allah.
Understanding and empathy build bridges where criticism creates walls. A little kindness goes a long way.

البعض يغيثون كالمطر وآخرون يظللون كالشجر، وبعضهم كالصحراء مهما زرعت فيهم، لا وفاء ولا ثمر
Some people are a source of relief for others, like rainfall. And then there are those who provide shade like the trees. However, you also come across people who are like deserts. No matter how much you do for them, there's no loyalty or benefit.

*Whoever Spends Something Today Will Benefit From It Tomorrow – Nice Story*
Thus whoever spends something today will benefit from it tomorrow and whoever does not spend will come to find nothing, and he will have a great loss in the house of dwelling (in the Hereafter).
Some of the Salaf said,
*“O son of Adam, you will only live on the Day of Judgment in what you have built, and you will find on that day what possessions you have prepared in your life.”*
A women entered upon ‘A’ishah (radiy Allaahu anha), and her hand was paralysed. She said, “O mother of the Believers, I went to sleep yesterday and my hand was healthy, and I woke up and it was paralysed. ‘A’ishah said, “How is that?” She said, “I had wealthy parents, and my Father used to pay zakat, host guests, and give to beggars, and he did not see any good except that he would do it. As for my mother, she was stingy, and did nothing good with my Father’s wealth. Then my Father died, and my mother died only two months after him. So I saw my Father in a dream last night, and he was wearing two yellow garments and in front of him was a flowing river. I said, “Father, what is this?’ He said, “Whoever does good in this life will see it, this is what Allah has given me.” I said, “What has happened to my mother?” He asked, “Your Mother dies?” I said, “Yes”
He said, “She has been turned away from me, so look for her on your left” So I turned to my left, and I saw my mother standing naked, covering her lower half with a rag and in her hand was a piece of fat. She was calling out, “My sadness, my thirst’ When she became tired she would rub the fat with her hand and then lick it, while in front of her was a flowing river. I said, ‘O mother, why are you crying out of thirst, and there is a flowing river in front of you?’ She said, ‘I am not allowed to drink from it.’ I said, Can I give you some of the water?’ She said, ‘I wish you would do that.’ So I filled my hand with water and let her drink, and when she swallowed it I heard a voice on my right, ‘Whoever has given this woman water, may his hand be paralysed,’ and they repeated it twice. Then I awoke and my hand was paralysed, and I am not able to do anything with it. ‘A’ishah asked: ‘Did you recognise the rag she was wearing?’ I said, ‘Yes, O Mother of the Believers, it was exactly the same one I saw her wearing, for I had never seen my mother give anything as charity, except that one day my Father slaughtered a bull. So a beggar came to ask for some, so my mother gave him a bone that had some fat on it. And I saw one day that a beggar asked her for charity, so she gave him that exact rag.’
A’ishah (radiy Allaahu anha) said, Allah is the Most Great! Allah has told the truth, and the Messenger has delivered the message.
فَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ خَيْرًا يَرَهُ
وَمَن يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ شَرًّا يَرَهُ

Sleeping before Isha prayer
Narrated Abu Barza:
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) disliked to sleep before the `Isha' prayer and to talk after it. [al-Bukhari 568]
Imam Bukhari puts this hadith under the chapter heading 'What is disliked about sleeping before the 'Isha prayer''
Al-Nawawi (may Allaah have mercy on him) said in his commentary:
The scholars said: The reason for it being makrooh to sleep beforehand is that one risks missing the prayer by sleeping too deeply, or one risks missing the preferred and best time for the prayer, and lest the people take this matter lightly and sleep and miss the prayer in congregation. [al-Adhkaar (p. 533]
Ash-Shaykh Uthaymeen stated in sharh Buloogh Al maram,
""There is nothing wrong with sleeping for an hour after Maghrib prayer after an extended day at work. ""
If it was inconvenient for people to wait for the time of Isha prayer, then it is not dislikable for them to sleep before it. This is the opinion held by some scholars based on Al-Bukhari 's narration in his Saheeh that the Prophet (may Allah be pleased with him) once delayed Isha prayer so much that Umar told him that women and children had slept.
Some scholars set a condition that the one who intends to sleep must be sure that he will wake up in the due time. But some others see it dislikable in all cases. In 'Nail al-Awtaar', Ash-Shawkani said: Ibn Al-Arabi said: 'it is permissible for one who is confident that he will naturally wake up before the elapse of the prayer time or is accompanied by someone who awakens him'.

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 assiduous 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 Messengerﷺ) 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
👆
(Note: This doesn’t nullify the requirement to perform Hajj).
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. Aameen.

Translation: And whoever turns away from My remembrance; indeed, he will have a depressed life.
This means: He will have no tranquillity and no expanding of his heart.
Rather, his heart will be constrained and in difficulty due to his misguidance.
Even if he appears to be in comfort outwardly and he wears whatever he likes, eats whatever he likes and lives wherever he wants, he will not be happy.
For verily, his heart will not have pure certainty and guidance. He will be in agitation, bewilderment and doubt.
He will always be in confusion and a state of uncertainty.

The Titanic was constructed by hundreds of men, and its captain announced that this ship will never perish. On it first voyage in the ocean it sunk.
Mean while, Nuh عليه السلام constructed a huge ship all by himself and he announced: “With the name of ALLAH it sails and anchors.” (Surat Hud:41). The entire world became flooded, and his ship was the only thing that survived.

‼️TWO TYPES OF BLESSINGS‼️
Ibn al-Qayyim (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said:
"Blessings are of two types; unrestricted and restricted.
The absolute, unrestricted blessing is connected to eternal happiness, and that is the blessing of Islam and the Sunnah.
The second type, the restricted blessing such as wealth, physical health, social status, plentiful offspring, a good wife, etc…
These are the blessings shared between the righteous and the wicked, the believer and the disbeliever."
