Al-Ḥasan said, "Knowledge is of two types: knowledge that is superficial utterance upon the tongue, that is Allāh's proof against the children of Ādam; and knowledge that takes root in the heart and that is beneficial knowledge."

Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:

A man will only entertain a woman if he's going to benefit. So why are women still entertaining men “For the pleasure of Allah”? For the pleasure of Allah direct that man to the Hadith that says (and I paraphrase ), “….if you’re not able to afford marriage, then fast.”

A person with a pure heart cannot find peace in what is haram. Even if he slips or feels weak, his heart continues to rebuke him, leaving him restless, uneasy, and scattered, until he turns back to the right way.
Allah loves His righteous servants. When He loves someone, He draws their attention, through trials, through restraint in worldly matters, not out of anger, but out of mercy, guiding them back to the path of truth. :

𝗕𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗸𝗮𝗵 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀𝗻'𝘁 𝘀𝘄𝗶𝗽𝗲!
Our grandparents built homes with 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲. But they also built lives with one intention: to stretch what they had, not chase what they didn’t.
They didn’t 𝘀𝗶𝗽 𝗼𝗻 𝗥𝟳𝟱 𝗹𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗿 𝗸𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗸 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶 in cafés with imported cinnamon. They boiled 𝘁𝗲𝗮 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘃𝗲𝘀 till the pot stained, poured it into chipped cups, and called it enough.
They didn’t 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗹 𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘂𝘀. They opened cupboards, found onions, lentils, maybe a tomato; and made a meal that 𝗳𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝘄𝗲𝗹𝘃𝗲. Because the house was full - of children, cousins, neighbours who popped in “just for tea”; and stayed for dhal and roti.
𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝘁. No measurements. Just instinct, barakah, and love. Somehow, everyone ate, even the uncle who arrived late with a story and no warning.
They didn’t have 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘀. They had sabr. They didn’t count calories.
They counted blessings.
𝗣𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀 didn’t unlock with a face.
They hung on the wall or the sat atop the sideboard cupboard in the diningroom.
There was 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻...in the lounge; and if your father chose the channel, you watched - even if it was news in a language you didn't understand.
Now every room has a screen. The toddler has a tablet. The tween has a phone with more 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗱𝘂𝗮𝘀, and we wonder why we can’t afford rent.
We race through 𝗝𝗼𝗯𝘂𝗿𝗴 in 𝗕𝗠𝗪𝘀, Jeeps, and Land Rovers - chasing time, chasing status, chasing silence.
But Nana drove a simple Nissan bakkie, the kind with a bench seat in front, and children packed in the back like joy itself - no seatbelts, just wind, laughter, and a packet of Nik Naks passed around.
We say we’re broke, but our carts are full. We say we’re tired, but our calendars are self-inflicted.
We say we’re 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗱, but we haven’t prayed maghrib with the family in weeks. We say we’re overwhelmed, but we haven’t touched the Quraan since last Ramadhaan.
We give thousand-rand 𝗱𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀 to children. We eat meals delivered by Uber Eats or Mr D, from places we didn’t visit.
We 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁, but forget that comfort was once a mattress on the floor, a fan in summer, and your duas before sleeping.
Dada didn’t have 47 debit orders.
He had one bank card, or a post office savings account; and a wife who reminded him to pray Esha salaah before bed.
Nani didn’t have bhakoor or scented candles labelled “Tranquility.” She lit lobaan and let the scent 'carry' her prayers.
Barakah doesn’t swipe.
It doesn’t stream.
It doesn’t arrive in a branded paper bag.
It lives in the quiet.
In the cracked mug.
In the walk to the masjid.
In the meal made from memory.
In the dua whispered before sleep.
So don’t ask why the elders could build.
Ask what they didn’t waste.
Parents are a beautiful creation, because in this tough world, they always want to see you happy.

Shaykhul Islaam Ibnul Qayyim
I'laam al Muwaqi'een Vol 3, P.4
Forbidding Evil has four levels:
The first: That the evil is removed and the opposite (good) takes its place.[1]
The second: The evil is lessened but is not removed completely.[2]
The third: The evil is replaced with what is similar/equal to it.[3]
The fourth: The evil is replaced with something worse than it.[4]
The first two levels are legislated (permitted), the third is an area of Ijtihaad and the fourth is prohibited.
________
The following is only an example to clarify the meaning.
[1] A person is encouraged to abandon smoking cigarettes and burns incense in his home or drinks coffee in its place or just simply abandons smoking cigarettes.
[2] A person is encouraged to abandon smoking cigarettes and responds by smoking less often.
[3] A person is encouraged to abandon smoking cigarettes and consequently abandons it and replaces it with smoking Shihah (sometimes called hubbly bubbly).
[4] A person is encouraged to abandon smoking cigarettes and consequently abandons it and replaces it with smoking weed or other such substances.
This scenario can be visualized if a person were to be encouraged to abandon smoking by only citing its harmful effects on the body such as its effect on the lungs or the risk of cancer, he then figures that smoking weed which carries a more sever prohibition or Shisha which carries a similar prohibition are fine since they may not have those particular harmful effects on the body while he was unaware that they are prohibited from different angles.
There are many other examples that do not necessarily have to have a relation with each other such as the example used.

#A #Good #Life
Translated by Umm Yahya
Shaykh Muhammad bin Salih al-Uthaymeen- Rahimuhullaah said:
“A good life is not as some people perceive it to be, it is thought to be protection from trials, poverty, sickness and grief.
No! On the contrary, what is intended by a good life is that a person possesses a good heart, feels delight (through the expansion of his chest) and is content with Allah’s Qadr (predestined) and His Qada (execution of predestined matters).
Thus if he is granted good he is grateful and that is better for him, and if he is afflicted with harm, he is patient, and that is better for him.
This is what is meant by a good life, and it refers to a contented heart.

Anyone can appear righteous by the way they speak or the things they post, astaghfirullahil Azdheem wastaghfirullah w atubu ilayh. But the true indication of righteousness is one's character, conduct and behaviour.

الدِّينُ كُلُّهُ خُلُقٌ فَمَنْ زَادَ عَلَيْكَ فِي الْخُلُقِ زَادَ عَلَيْكَ فِي الدِّينِ
The religion itself is entirely good character, so whoever surpasses you in character has surpassed you in religion.
May Allaah Ta'ala forgive and correct and improve us until He is pleased with us. Allaahumma aameen yaa Rabbi 🤲🏽🌱🌿💚🌻💛🌞

Leaving a fire unattended while sleeping can lead to harm, so taking precautions is part of wisdom, care, and following the Sunnah.

Stop putting people with a platform and a large audience on a pedestal.
Today we see many Islamic and Da'wah pages appearing on social networks, but unfortunately, many of them are created for the wrong reasons. It has become a kind of trend, as the brother already mentioned. Some people focus only on numbers — on gaining more followers, boosting their reputation, or appearing to be someone they are not. There are also those who show off shelves of Islamic books, display notes and collections, creating the impression of deep knowledge. But behind the scenes, this may be a person who hasn't even read those books from beginning to end. They may be creating an image far from reality. Some of them even seem psychologically unstable, with wrong priorities. Some fall into fitnah because of the attention they receive. They start seeking people's approval, fall into self-admiration, and eventually come to sin. All this happens when a person starts their work for the recognition of people, not solely for Allah.
We must be careful because any of us can fall into this. May Allah protect us from it. Therefore, it is important to constantly renew our intentions.
This applies to me as well. I am not a scholar. I am not sinless or a saint. Perhaps I am more sinful than the most sinful person you know. Do not take the number of followers as a measure of piety or knowledge. Remember, only Allah knows what is in our hearts.
The reach or popularity of a page does not determine its value in the eyes of Allah. Sincerity must be the foundation of every action, especially when it comes to calling to Islam.
May Allah grant us all the ability to purify our intentions.
Allahumma Ameen..

Close your eyes to the world for a moment and look within.Take a deep breath and let the weight of the day melt away.
Feel the sand of time slipping quietly through your fingers, a reminder that every moment is a chance to return to Him.
Focus inward
Notice the stillness of your heart where your deepest feelings rest.
Listen to your heartbeat… feel how it aligns beautifully with your breath.
Let every sound fade until only your inner world remains.
Then, with softness in your voice and sincerity in your chest, whisper:
Ya Allah… I am lost if You don’t guide me. Ya Rabb… You are the Keeper of all keys. Open for me the door that is best, and fill my heart with contentment for whatever You choose.
Feel these words rising from your soul.
Because when you speak to Allah from that deep place, you realize the distance between you and Him was never measured in miles but rather it was only in attention, love, and the awakening of your own rooh

At the end of surah Yusuf, after everything he’d been through, Prophet Yusuf (alayhis salam) simply said:
إِنَّ رَبِّي لَطِيفٌ لِمَا يَشَاءُ
“My Lord is gentle (so subtle, so kind) in the way He brings about whatever He wills.”
And when you look at his life, you understand why he said it with such certainty.
-Thrown into a well by the very brothers who were supposed to protect him.
-Sold for a few coins in a land far from home.
-Falsely accused and dragged off to prison.
-Forgotten there, year after year, while the one person who could free him moved on with his life.
Every single moment looked like disaster.
Every door that closed seemed final.
Yet every single one of those moments was Allah moving him, step by step, toward something greater than he could have imagined: authority in a kingdom, reunion with his family, and the saving of nations from famine.
But here’s the part that hits deepest:
Allah wasn’t only raising Yusuf to a throne. He was polishing his heart.
-The well taught him detachment from the world.
-Slavery taught him humility.
-Prison taught him patience and complete reliance on Allah alone.
-Being forgotten taught him that only Allah never forgets.
By the time he stood in front of his brothers (the same ones who once wanted him gone), there was no anger in his voice, no desire for revenge, no trace of arrogance.
Just full of mercy and forgiveness.
That’s what the fire does when Allah is the One controlling the heat: it doesn’t burn you, it refines you.
So when you’re in your own well right now… when the door feels locked… when people have moved on and it seems like even your dua is forgotten… remember Yusuf (alayhis salam).
What feels like punishment might be preparation.
What feels like delay might be protection.
What feels like breaking might actually be the gentleness of Allah shaping you into someone who can carry the blessings He’s about to give without them destroying you.
He is Al-Lateef.
He works in ways softer than silk, quieter than breath, kinder than we can comprehend.
Trust Him.
You’re not stuck.
You’re being carried.
