Is money the root cause of all evil?
The concept of money being the root of all evil is not necessarily true; in fact, this notion has no basis in Islamic teachings.
Many people often struggle with the concept of wealth and believe that it will sabotage their path to piety.
Money does not change people, it just amplifies who they already are.
If you're someone who is already kind and Allah blesses you with wealth, you'll be kinder. With your increased resources, you'll now be able to spend more on charities, be more generous with your families, build mosques, sponsor orphans, and so on.
If you used to donate,
you'll now donate more.
If you are a spender,
you will now spend more.
If you are egotistical by nature, achieving wealth will make you be Hyper egotistical. You might start to idolize money, prioritizing it above all else, and soon it becomes your object of worship; a subtle form of shirk.
If you're stingy, wealth will reinforce stinginess, making you hesitant to spend; even on those who have rights over you.
If you’re someone with malicious intent, gaining access to significant wealth can be dangerous. Money falling into the wrong hands will cause destruction such as funding weapons to cause a genocide.
Money does not cause evil at all, it reveals a person's true character, because with great power through wealth comes great responsibility. The generous becomes more generous, the wicked becomes more wicked.
You can change the narrative and make money be a powerful tool for good. Generosity will rewire your life. When you give your money away, things will start to change. New opportunities will show up out of nowhere. Unexpected connections will start to appear. In faith we call it barakah (divine blessings).
Wealth is a trust from Allah; share it wisely, for it’s not truly ours to keep. You don't need to be wealthy to give, if you're broke, give a dollar. Your sincere intention behind that one dollar may weigh more on your scale on the Day of Judgement. If you're financially stable, give past your comfort zone.
The cure isn't in the amount, it's in the sacrifice. Only then both spiritual and material wealth will begin to flow.
May Allah’s blessings help guide wealth to reach the right hands, where it will bring benefit to humanity. May He continuously increase their provisions and inspire them to spend in ways that will please Him. Ameen.

Shaykh Muhammad ibn Salih al-‘Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him) was asked:
What is the ruling on celebrating the Prophet’s birthday (al-Mawlid al-Nabawi)?
He replied:
Firstly, the exact night of the Prophet’s birth ﷺ is not known with certainty. In fact, some contemporary researchers have established that it was on the night of the 9th of Rabi‘ al-Awwal, not the 12th. Thus, fixing the celebration on the 12th has no basis historically.
Secondly, from the perspective of the Sharia, the celebration has no basis either. For if it were part of the religion of Allah, the Prophet ﷺ would have done it or conveyed it to his Ummah. And if he had done it or conveyed it, then it would necessarily have been preserved, because Allah the Exalted says:
“Indeed, it is We who sent down the Quran, and indeed, We will guard it.” (Qur’an 15:9)
Since nothing of that exists, it is known that it is not from the religion of Allah. And if it is not from the religion of Allah, then it is not permissible for us to worship Allah through it or seek closeness to Him by means of it. If Allah has placed a specific path to reach Him — the path brought by His Messenger ﷺ, then how can it be befitting for us, as His servants, to invent from ourselves another path that we claim will bring us nearer to Allah? This is a grave offense against the right of Allah, Exalted be He, that we legislate in His religion what He did not authorize.
Moreover, this entails a denial of the statement of Allah the Exalted:
“This day I have perfected for you your religion and completed My favor upon you and have approved for you Islam as religion.” (Qur’an 5:3)
So we say: if this celebration were part of the perfection of the religion, then it must have existed before the death of the Messenger ﷺ. And if it was not part of the perfection of the religion, then it cannot be from the religion, because Allah says: “Today I have perfected for you your religion.”
Whoever claims that it is part of the perfection of the religion, while it only appeared after the Messenger ﷺ, his statement entails rejecting this noble verse.
There is no doubt that those who celebrate the Prophet’s birthday ﷺ intend thereby to honor him, to show love for him, and to stir up enthusiasm and emotional attachment to him. All of this indeed falls under acts of worship: love of the Messenger ﷺ is an act of worship, and faith is not complete until the Messenger ﷺ is more beloved to a person than himself, his child, his father, and all people. Honoring the Messenger ﷺ is also worship. Likewise, stirring emotions towards him is part of the religion, since it inclines hearts toward his Sharia.
Therefore, celebrating the Prophet’s birthday ﷺ, intending thereby nearness to Allah and honoring His Messenger ﷺ, is an act of worship. And if it is an act of worship, then it is never permissible to introduce into Allah’s religion something that is not from it. Hence, celebrating the Mawlid is an innovation and forbidden.
Furthermore, we hear that within these celebrations occur major evils that are neither sanctioned by the Sharia, nor by natural sense, nor by intellect. They sing poems that contain exaggeration regarding the Prophet ﷺ, even raising him above Allah Himself — Allah’s refuge is sought. Also, we hear of the foolishness of some participants: when the reciter of the story of the birth reaches the words “the Chosen One (المصطفى) was born,” they all rise together, saying that the soul of the Prophet ﷺ has attended, and they stand in honor of it. This is foolishness.
It is also against proper etiquette, because the Prophet ﷺ disliked people standing for him. His Companions (may Allah be pleased with them), who loved him more than we do and revered him more than we do, would not stand for him because they knew he disliked it — while he was alive. So how then with these mere imaginations?

This innovation — meaning the innovation of celebrating the Mawlid — arose only after the passing of the three virtuous generations, and along with it came many reprehensible matters that undermine the very foundation of the religion, not to mention the mixing of men and women and other evils that often accompany it.

_Sayyiduna Sa’d ibn Abi Waqqas رضي الله عنه reported:_
_I said, “O Messenger of Allah, which people are tested most severely?”_
_The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said,_
*“They are the prophets, then the next best, then the next best. A man is put to trial according to his religion. If he is firm in his religion, his trials will be more severe. If he is weak in his religion, he is put to trial according to his strength in religion. The servant will continue to be put to trial until he is left walking upon the earth without any sin.”*

Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
“If Allah wills good for His servant, He will remove from his heart the desire to admire his own good deeds,
He will restrain his tongue from speaking about them to others,
And He will occupy his thoughts with his sins - so much so that they remain ever before his eyes until he enters Paradise.
Indeed, if a deed is truly accepted, the desire to take pride in it is removed from the heart, and the tongue is kept from speaking about it.”
(Tariq al-Hijratayn)

No need to be content with this dunya....Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "How can I feel at ease when the Angel of the Trumpet, (Israfil) has put his lips to the Trumpet and is waiting for the order to blow it". He (ﷺ) perceived as if this had shocked his Companions, so he (ﷺ) told them to seek comfort through reciting: 'Hasbunallah wa ni'mal-Wakil [Allah (Alone) is Sufficient for us, and He is the Best Disposer of affairs (for us)]".

Seeking Treatment for an Illness by Giving Charity:
------------- -‐---------------- --------------------------------------------
1 – From Abu Umamah –Radi Allaahu anhu– who said: the Messenger of Allaah (ﷺ)said:
‘Treat your sick by giving Sadaqah (charity).’
[Collected in Saheeh al-Jamia’ No. 3358 & declared Hasan by Albaani]
2 – From Ubadah bin Saamit who said I heard the Messenger of Allaah (ﷺ) saying:
‘There is no person who is afflicted with a wound on his body, and he gives charity due to that, then Allaah expiates from him the like of what he gave in charity.
[Collected by Ahmad & Albaani declared it to have an authentic Isnaad in Saheehah No. 2273]
3 – A man asked Abdullaah bin al-Mubarak -Rahimullaah- about ulcers that had sprung out on his knee for about seven years, and he tried to treat it with various treatments, he had asked doctors but to no avail.
So Ibn Mubarak said: ‘Go and dig a well in a place where people need water, indeed I hope that there springs up water there, and by that you stop bleeding.’ The man did that and Allaah Ta’ala cured him.’

"There comes a time in our life when we go through a very difficult phase of our life and face multiple hardships and calamities. And We start to question ourselves: “Why am I going through these hardships? Does Allah not love me? Why does He test me? Why doesn’t He give me a life full of ease if He truly loves me?”
In those moments, always remind yourself that Allah ﷻ only tests those whom He truly loves. And remember, the worst of tests were given to the Prophets..does that mean Allah didn’t love them? Of course he did. And The Prophet ﷺ said: “The greatest reward comes with the greatest trial. When Allah loves a person, He tests them.”
(Jamí at-Tirmidhi 2396)
So, trials, calamities, and hardships are a test from Allah ﷻ and a sign of His love. If you are going through hardships, do not lose hope. Know that Allah loves you, Allah sees your struggles, hears your prayers, and knows your pain. And hold on for indeed, after every hardship comes
ease (Qur’an 94:5-6). 🤍"

💐 #FORGIVENESS - "ALLAAH WILL CHANGE THEIR SINS INTO GOOD DEEDS" - II 💐
إِلَّا مَنْ تَابَ وَآمَنَ وَعَمِلَ عَمَلًا صَالِحًا فَأُولَٰئِكَ يُبَدِّلُ اللَّهُ سَيِّئَاتِهِمْ حَسَنَاتٍ ۗ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ غَفُورًا رَحِيمًا
"Except those who repent and believe (in Islamic Monotheism), and do righteous deeds, for those, Allah will change their sins into good deeds, and Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful."
-Surah Al-Furqan, Ayah 70
🍃 Ibn Abi Hatim recorded that Abu Jabir heard Makhul say,
"A very old man with sunken eyes came and said, O Messenger of Allah, a man betrayed others and did immoral deeds, and there was no evil deed which he did not do. If (his sins) were to be distributed among the whole of mankind, they would all be doomed. Is there any repentance for him?"
Have you become Muslim?
He said, "As for me, I bear witness that there is no God but Allah Alone, with no partner or associate, and that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger."
The Prophet said:
فَإِنَّ اللهَ غَافِرٌ لَكَ مَا كُنْتَ كَذَلِكَ وَمُبَدِّلُ سَيِّيَاتِكَ حَسَنَات
Allah will forgive you for whatever you have done like that, and will replace your evil deeds with good merits.
The man said:"O Messenger of Allah, even my betrayals and immoral actions?"
The Prophet said:
وَغَدَرَاتُكَ وَفَجَرَاتُك
Even your betrayals and immoral actions.
"The man went away saying La ilaha illallah' and `Allahu Akbar."' 🍃
Allah tells us how His mercy extends to all His creatures, and that whoever among them repents to Him, He will accept his repentance for any sin, great or small.

Today we see a strange contradiction: People run towards innovations celebrating Mawlid, inventing practices never legislated but when it comes to the authentic Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ, they have 101 excuses not to follow it.
Beards are shaved ✂️, trousers are below the ankles 👖, music and movies are enjoyed 🎶🎥, free-mixing is normalised, photos and selfies fill social media 📱, and many women wear “hijabs” styled like fashion where the ʿawrah is still exposed. Yet, all this is justified under the false idea that Islam is “flexible” and can be bent according to lifestyle or culture.
But Allah’s Dīn is complete and perfect it cannot be altered for convenience. Living in a non-Muslim country is itself a test of īmān, not an excuse to abandon or compromise.
True love of the Prophet ﷺ is not by celebrating his birthday but by obeying him, abandoning what he forbade, and walking upon his path. As Allah said:
“Say, [O Prophet], ‘If you love Allah, then follow me, Allah will love you and forgive your sins.’” (Āl ʿImrān 3:31)
Allāhu Mustaʿān.

Do not judge your success by what you receive in this life:
Allah تعالى said:
﴿وَمَا أُوتِيتُم مِّن شَيْءٍ فَمَتَاعُ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَزِينَتُهَا ۚ وَمَا عِندَ اللَّـهِ خَيْرٌ وَأَبْقَىٰ ۚ أَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ﴾
{And whatever you have been given is an enjoyment of the life of (this) world and its adornment, and that (Hereafter) which is with Allah is better and will remain forever. Have you then no sense?} [Surah Qasas (28): 60]

In another narration, it is mentioned that the Prophet ﷺ ordered to cover his head with the shroud and to put some grass over his feet.
[Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (1274, 1275, 4045)]

﴿وَمَا أُوتِيتُم مِّن شَيْءٍ فَمَتَاعُ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَزِينَتُهَا ۚ وَمَا عِندَ اللَّـهِ خَيْرٌ وَأَبْقَىٰ ۚ أَفَلَا تَعْقِلُونَ﴾
{And whatever you have been given is an enjoyment of the life of (this) world and its adornment, and that (Hereafter) which is with Allah is better and will remain forever. Have you then no sense?} [Surah Qasas (28): 60]
Ibraaheem ibn
Abdur-Rahmaan Ibn Auf reported: Food was brought to Abdur-Rahmaan bin Auf رضي الله عنه when he was observing Saum (fast) and he said: ❝Musab Ibn Umayr رضي الله عنه was martyred and he was better than me, but only one sheet was available to shroud him. It was so small that when his head was covered; his feet remained uncovered and if his feet were covered, his head remained uncovered. Then the bounties of this world have been bestowed upon us generously. I am afraid that the reward of our good deeds has been awarded to us in this world.❞ On this, he began to sob and left the food untouched.In another narration, it is mentioned that the Prophet ﷺ ordered to cover his head with the shroud and to put some grass over his feet.

An Amazing Nightly Opportunity:
From Abū Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) who said:
مَنْ قَرَأَ مِائَةَ آيَةٍ فِي لَيْلَةٍ لَمْ يُكْتَبْ مِنَ الْغَافِلِينَ، وَمَنْ قَرَأَ مِائَتَيْنِ كُتِبَ مِنَ الْقَانِتِينَ.
Whoever recites one hundred verses in a night will not be recorded among the heedless; and whoever recites two hundred will be recorded among the devoutly obedient.
In another wording:
وَمَنْ حَافَظَ عَلَى الصَّلَوَاتِ الْخَمْسِ لَمْ يُكْتَبْ مِنَ الْغَافِلِينَ.
And whoever maintains the five daily prayers will not be recorded among the heedless.
(Authentic) — Saʿīd ibn Manṣūr (no. 136), Ibn Abī Shaybah (no. 30085).
It carries the ruling of being raised (to the Prophet ﷺ).
