As salaam alaikum wa rahmatullah wa barakatuh

🔹Abdullah bin 'Umar (May allah be pleased with them) reported:

Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) took hold of my shoulders and said, "Be in the world like a stranger or a wayfarer".

Ibn 'Umar (May Allah be pleased with them) used to say: "When you survive till the evening, do not expect to live until the morning; and when you survive until the morning, do not expect to live until the evening; (do good deeds) when you are in good health before you fall sick, and (do good deeds) as long as you are alive before death strikes".

[Al- Bukhari].)‌‏.‏

أخذ رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم بمنكبي، فقال‏:‏ ‏ "‏كن في الدنيا كأنك غريب، أو عابر سبيل‏"‌‏.‏ وكان ابن عمر، رضي الله عنهما، يقول‏:‏ إذا أمسيت، فلا تنتظر الصباح، وإذا أصبحت لا تنتظر المساء، وخذ من صحتك لمرضك ومن حياتك لموتك‏.‏ ‏(‌‏(‏رواه البخاري‏)‌‏)‌‏.‏

Be Like Foam On The Sea

Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "The nations are about to call each other and set upon you, just as diners set upon food." It was said: "Will it be because of our small number that day?" He said:

"Rather, on that day you will be many, but you will be like foam, like the foam on the sea. And Allah will remove the fear of you from the hearts of your enemies and will throw wahn (weakness) into your hearts." Someone said: "O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)! What is wahn?" He said: "Love of the world and the hatred for death."

Don’t let current events distract you from your worship.

‎Be mindful not to abandon your daily portion of Qur’an or adhkār in the pursuit of following the latest news.

‎Know this: during times of tribulation and widespread heedlessness, the reward for righteous deeds increases.

‎The Prophet ﷺ said: ‎“Worship during times of chaos is like migrating to me.”

‎So if you’ve missed the reward of migrating from Makkah to Madinah, don’t miss the reward of worship during times of trial, confusion, and heedlessness.

Imagine having enough money to take care of several families.

And not the way you think. But imagine being able to provide for several orphans of martyrs from different families.

Imagine Allah enabling you to make sure they are fed, clothed, educated and have a roof over their heads.

Being able to lift that burden upon the widowed mother with no strings attached but solely for the sake of Allah, until they reach an age in which they can work and provide for their families.

Imagine being rich enough to take care of atleast ten families like that.

And on the Day of judgement, see their martyred fathers, embrace them and say " you gave your life for Allah, and the benefit of the ummah, taking care of your family was the least I could do".

Whoever is able but is stingy, he is only stingy with his own soul. Allah is Al Ghani and not in need of anyone.

Oh Allah make it so without the knowledge of mankind. Make us wealthy and sincere and hide our deeds.

What a dream indeed.

Thoughtful Silence

Sufyan at-Thawri رحمه الله said:

"One day, ‘Umar bin 'Abd al-Aziz sat in silence whilst his companions were talking around him, so they said to him: "Why are you not speaking, O Amir al-Mu'minin?"

He replied:
"I was thinking about how the people of Jannah will visit one another therein and about how the people of the Nar will scream.’ And then he began to cry."

📖 [ Sirat 'Umar bin 'Abd al-'Aziz by lbn al-Jawzi, Page 154 ]

Attach your heart to wealth, and you’ll constantly fear losing it. Attach your heart to people, and you’ll feel broken when they change or leave. Attach your heart to status, and you’ll be enslaved to people’s praise and crushed by their criticism.

Torment isn’t always physical. Sometimes it’s sleepless nights, anxiety, jealousy, emptiness, or the constant need to prove yourself.

So what should the heart attach to?
To the One who never changes. To the One who never leaves. To the One who said:
أَلَا بِذِكْرِ اللَّهِ تَطْمَئِنُّ الْقُلُوبُ
Indeed, in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest. (Surah Ar-Ra’d 28).

Let your heart be anchored to Allah. Love Him the most. Trust Him the most. Hope in Him the most. Because everything else fades.

Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله said:
مَن تَعَلَّقَ بِشَيءٍ عُذِّبَ بِهِ
Whoever becomes attached to something, will be tormented by it.

Sit at a table where you talk about Allah, the Deen , vision, ideas, growth, halal income & goals.... not people.

Opening secrets of each other in anger.

Messenger of Allah peace be upon him said:
‏
إذا سبَّكَ رجلٌ بما يعلمُ منكَ ، فلا تسبَّهُ بما تعلمُ منهُ ، فيكون أجرُ ذلكَ لكَ و وبالُهُ عليه

If a man insults you with what he knows about you, do not insult him with what you know about him, for then the reward (of patience) will be yours, and the sin will be upon him."

📖صحيح الجامع للألباني (594)

Put your trust in Allah, and watch how the impossible becomes possible.
No door is too locked when He is the opener — Al-Fattah.
Just rely on Him, and keep going with a heart full of hope.

The Prophet ﷺ said:
"Be mindful of Allah, and He will take care of you. Be mindful of Him, and you shall find Him with you."
— (Tirmidhi 2516)

“Indeed, Allah will not change the condition of a people until they change what is within themselves.” (13:11)

They tell you that your environment is everything, but I’m living proof that it doesn’t have to be.

When I couldn’t change my external environment,
I changed the one I could—my internal one.

And when I did that, Allah ﷻ changed everything for me.

Allah ﷻ can take you out of any situation
if you choose to trust and fully rely on Him and GROW out of it.

Ibn Rajab رحمه الله said:

“Some of the Salaf would ask Allāh in their prayers for everything, even when they needed salt for the dough and fodder for the sheep.”

*Spending of wealth*

Rasulullah ﷺ said: “Everyone will be incapable of moving on the day of reckoning until he is asked regarding his life and where he spent it, his knowledge and that which he acted upon, his wealth how he earned it and how he spent it, regarding his body and how he utilised it." [Tirmidhi]

"If you look at what you have in life, you'll always have more.
If you look at what you don't have in life, you'll never have enough."

When Allah solves your problems, you have faith in Allah’s abilities; when Allah doesn't solve your problems Allah has faith in your abilities.

Luqmān was an Ethiopian carpenter known for his wisdom.

His master said to him: 
"Slaughter this sheep for us," so he slaughtered it.

His master said: "Bring the best two pieces from it," so he brought out the tongue and the heart.

Them time passed, as much as Allāh willed, and his master said: "Slaughter this sheep for us," so he slaughtered it.

His master said: "Bring the worst two morsels from it," so he brought out the tongue and the heart.

His master said to him: "I told you to bring out the best two pieces, and you brought these, then I told you bring out the worst two pieces, and you brought these!"

Luqmān said: "There is nothing better than these if they are good, and there is nothing worse than these if they are bad."

The Importance of Quality Over Quantity...

Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Salih al-Uthaymeen -Rahimullaah- said:

“حسن العبادة أهم من كثرة العبادة”

‘Worship which is good is more important than a lot of worship.’

Three Causes of Hearts Feeling Open or Tight and the Effect of That in the Grave

- Ibnul-Qayyim Rahimahullah
Zād al-Maʿād fī Hadyi Khayr al-ʿIbād

And from the things that bring about an expansive feeling in [one’s] chest is persistent remembrance of Him in all circumstances and in all places, for remembrance [of Allāh] has a wondrous effect on bringing about an expanded feeling in the chest and a sense of delight in the heart, [while] being unmindful [of Him] has an astonishing effect on bringing about a tight feeling in the chest, a feeling of restriction, and a sense of torment.

And from those things [that bring about a feeling of expansion in the chest] is being good to all creatures and benefiting them in whatever way one can [through one’s] wealth, reputation, physical help, as well as other means of doing good, for those who are noble, generous and ever-working the best of deeds are the widest of mankind in their chests, the most good-natured in themselves, and the most delighted and serene at heart, [while] the miser in whom there are no feelings of doing good to others is the tightest of mankind in his chest, the most miserable and troubled in life, the greatest of them in terms of worry and distress….

And from those things is having a courageous heart, for indeed a brave, strong-hearted person has wide feeling in his chest, an easy state of mind, and an expansive heart, [while] a coward is the tightest of mankind in his chest, the most restricted in his heart, never feeling any happiness or delight, nor any sense of pleasure or enjoyment except the animalistic kind; as for the joy in one’s soul, its pleasure, delight and happiness, they are [all] forbidden to every coward, just as they are forbidden to every miser and everyone who turns away from Allāh—far is He above any imperfection—paying no heed to remembering Him, having no knowledge of His the All‑High’s names and attributes, his heart connected to other than Him.

And indeed this pleasure and joy [of having a feeling of expansion in the chest] becomes, in the grave, a meadow, a garden, [while that] tightness and restriction turns into torment and imprisonment. So a slave’s condition in the grave is like the heart’s condition in the chest—in a state of pleasure [or] a state of pain, a state of imprisonment [or] a state of freedom and release.

And no consideration is to be given [with regard to a slave’s expected state in the grave] to a feeling of expansion in the chest that comes about for a temporary reason, nor to a feeling of tightness in the chest from a momentary cause, for there is no doubt that temporary situations disappear, as do the things that bring them about, and indeed the only thing that can be relied upon [in this regard] is that characteristic that has become established as the one that describes the heart [overall], necessitating its [general feeling] of wideness or restriction: that is the scale [to be used in judging this situation], and Allāh is the only one whose help can be sought.

Everything has already written for you while you are still in your Mother's womb.. Qadar of Allāh..

Narrated Anas bin Malik: The Prophet ﷺ said,

"Allāh puts an angel in charge of the uterus and the angel says, 'O Lord, (it is) semen! O Lord, (it is now ) a clot! O Lord, (it is now) a piece of flesh.' And then, if Allāh wishes to complete its creation, the angel asks, 'O Lord, (will it be) a male or a female? A wretched (an evil doer) or a blessed (doer of good)? How much will his provisions be? What will his age be?' So all that is written while the creature is still in the mother's womb."

[صحيح البخاري، ٥٩٤]

The Prophet ﷺ warned us: “There will come a time when people won’t care where their wealth comes from — whether it’s Halal or Haram.”

And I can’t help but feel… that time is now.

We live in a world where anything that brings fast cash is glorified. People joke about scams. Business deals are praised even if they're shady. Music, riba, unethical marketing, lies — all swept under the rug if the paycheck is big enough.

But where is the barakah?

Where is the peace?

True success isn’t in how much we earn — it’s in how we earn it. Because no amount of money is worth trading your akhirah for.

Why depression is increasing among the youth!
The modern youth is glued to social media.. Scrolling endlessly, watching people who have more than them. And it's rotting their brains. Just because someone else has something doesn't mean you deserve it too. You're not special. You're not ennoscriptd to anything. You were put on this earth to struggle, to strive, and to worship Allah alone not to chase illusions or comfort like it's owed to you. You're not meant to be the same as everyone else. You're not meant to have what everyone else has. Be grateful for what you have, and look at those who have less than you. Humble yourself.
Raja Ejaz Ahamed
