The Prophet ﷺ cursed the one who consumes riba and the one who pays it.
[Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 5962]
Prophet ﷺ said:
"A dirham which a man consumes as riba knowingly is worse before Allah than thirty-six acts of zina."
[Narrated by Ahmad and al-Tabaraani; classed as saheeh by al- Albaani in Saheeh al-Jaami', no. 3375.]
And he said: "There are seventy-two types of riba, the least of which is like a man committing inc3st with his mother."
[Narrated by al- Tabaraani in al-Awsat; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Jaami', no. 3537.]

💎 Ibn al-Qayyim (رحمه الله) said: And some of the Salaf said:
رُبَّ مُسْتَدْرَجٍ بِنِعَمِ اللَّهِ وَهُوَ لا يَعْلَمُ
"There may be someone who is led to destruction by the blessings of Allah while he does not know it.

And there may be someone who is deluded by Allah's concealment of his faults while he does not know it.

السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ
Our dear brothers and sisters,
The Day of ʿArafah (9th of Dhul Ḥijjah) is the greatest day of the year.
It is a day when:
– Sins are forgiven
– Souls are freed from the Hellfire
– Duʿās are readily accepted
This day is also significant because it marks when Allah (subḥānahū wa taʿālā) perfected our religion and completed His favour upon us.
ʿUmar b. al-Khaṭṭāb (raḍiy Allāhu ʿanhu) narrated:
“Once a Jew said to me: ‘O leader of the believers! There is a verse in your (Holy) Book which you all recite; had it been revealed to us Jews, we would have taken that day as a day of celebration.’”
ʿUmar (raḍiy Allāhu ʿanhu) asked him:
“Which verse?”
The Jew replied:
اَلْيَوْمَ أَكْمَلْتُ لَكُمْ دِينُكُمْ وَأَتْمَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ نِعْمَتِي وَرَضِيتُ لَكُمُ الْإِسْلَامَ دِينًا
"Today I have perfected your religion for you, completed My blessing upon you, and chosen Islam as your religion."
(Surah al-Mā’idah, 5:3)
ʿUmar raḍiy Allāhu ʿanhu said:
“No doubt, we know the day and the place when this verse was revealed to the Prophet ﷺ. It was Friday and the Prophet ﷺ was standing at ʿArafah.”
(Bukhārī)
➡️Summary of the Virtues of the Day of ʿArafah:
1. Fasting:
Fasting on the Day of ʿArafah wipes away sins of the previous and upcoming year.
(Hadith – Muslim)
Even if one has not fasted the first eight days of Dhul Ḥijjah, they should not miss this fast.
2. Freedom from Hellfire:
It is the day when Allah frees more people from Hellfire than on any other day.
He boasts to the angels about His servants seeking forgiveness.
(Hadith – Muslim)
3. For All Believers:
This mercy is not exclusive to pilgrims. Non-pilgrims also receive this opportunity for forgiveness, making the following day (ʿEid) a true celebration.
4. Hope in Allah’s Mercy:
Sufyān al-Thawrī (raḥimahullāh) said:
“The worst person on ʿArafah is the one who believes Allah won’t forgive him.”
5. Acts of Generosity:
Ḥakīm b. Ḥizām (raḥimahullāh) freed 100 slaves on the Day of ʿArafah, inspiring others to beg Allah for their own freedom from the Hellfire.

Beware of betraying a believer;
Whoever betrayed a believer has betrayed Allāh and His Messenger (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam)
And when you love a brother for the sake of Allah,
then be kind and generous with him.
And beware of conflicts, controversies and arguments (with brothers),
Lest you become a habitually sinful deceiver.
And be patient with everyone,
because patience leads to righteousness,
and righteousness leads to Jannah.

How sound is the hadeeth “Seek seventy excuses for your brother”?
I do not know of any basis for it. What is prescribed for the believer is to respect his brother if he apologises to him and accept his excuse if possible, and to think positively of him whenever possible, in hopes that hearts will be free from resentment and that people will be brought together and will co-operate in doing good. It was narrated by Umar رضي الله عنه who said: “Do not think negatively of a word uttered by your brother, when you can find a good interpretation for it.”
Majmū Fatāwa Ibn Bāz 26/365

If someone slanders you, you either get their good deeds, or they get your bad deeds.
Abū Hurayrah narrated that Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said: "Whoever has wronged his brother with regard to his honour or any other matter, should seek his forgiveness today, before there are no longer any dinars, or dirham, and if he has righteous deeds, they will be taken (and given to the person they slandered), and if he has no good deeds, some of the bad deeds of the person will be taken and added to his burden."

Jumu’ah (the best day of the week) + ‘Arafah (best day of the year).

_”This day I have perfected for you your religion and completed My favor upon you...”_
