Spending on relatives:

A Muslim who possesses surplus money should spend it on his needy relatives because of the following: "Indeed, Allaah orders justice and good conduct and giving to relatives." [16:90]

Abu Barzah al-Aslami radi Allahu anhu reported that Allah’s Messenger sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam said, “The two feet of the servant will not cease (from standing before Allah) on the Day of Judgment until he is asked about four things: on his life and how he spent it; on his knowledge and what he did with it; on his wealth and where he earned it and how he spent it; and on his body and in what way he utilized it.” [Saheeh, reported by At-Tirmidhi]
Abū ʿAbdullāh ar-Roodhabaaree said, “Knowledge rests upon actions and actions rest upon sincerity, and sincerity for Allāh inherits understanding about Allāh - the Mighty and Majestic.”

Al-Hasan Al-Basree said:
"The effect of learning in early age is like engraving on a stone." [Bahjat Al-Majaalis, 1/109]
Ibn Al-Jawzee said:
"Parents should teach the child about religious purity and how to pray, and they should lightly discipline the child for no praying after they reach nine years of age. In addition, they should encourage children to memorize the Quraan and make them listen to the hadeeths, and they should teach them whatever they can handle from knowledge.
Moreover, they should show them the ugliness of all that is ugly, and encourage them to acquire good morals and they should not slacken in teaching them as much as they can bear, for this is the stage of plantation." [Awakening From The Sleep Of Heedlessness, by Ibn Al-Jawzee, pp. 22-23]
A poet said:
"If you straighten the branches of a plan, they will straighten up.
But the wood of a tree does not soften if you amend it.
Discipline might benefit a little boy in his cradle,
But it does not benefit an old man."
'Abdul-Maalik Ibn Marwaan used to love his son Al-Waleed too much but he overlooked disciplining him.Because of that, Al-Waleed ended up making mistakes in grammar and syntax. So 'Abdul-Maalik said, "Our love for Al-Waleed harmed him!"

The man then asked: “Are you the very same person who used to herd sheep?” Luqman (alalais salaam) replied: “Yes!”
The person asked yet again: “Are you the very same person with a dark complexion?” Luqman (alaihis salaam) replied: “My dark complexion is quite visible and clear to one and all, but what is it that really astonishes you regarding me?”
The man replied: “I am astonished that people flock to your gathering and eagerly accept your advice.” Luqman (alaihis salaam) then advised him saying: “Young man! You can also receive this very same rank and honour provided you adhere to the following aspects:

The Impact of Bad and Good Deeds on the Face: Subhan Allah
Ibn Abbaas Radi Allahu anhu said:
“A good deed illuminates the face, lights up the heart, causes love in the hearts of the creation; and a sin results in blackness in the face, darkness in the heart, and hatred in the hearts of creation.”
A good person could even omit a good smell without even wearing perfume. The goodness of their soul shows on their body and clothing, and the opposite happens to the evil person. The one who has congestion in their nose cannot smell either.

If we Prayed Tahajjud for some Days and Stopped praying in Other days. Our Nabi ﷺ said Don't do like That.
Allah's Apostle said to me, "O 'Abdullah! Do not be like so and so who used to pray at night and then stopped the Night prayer."

♻Advice to the Youth regarding Haraam Communications with the Opposite Sex Via Social Media ♻
The Mufti Shaykh Abdul-Azeez Aaalish-Shaykh
O Muslims, youth from the Muslim males & females have engaged in these websites and have regretted that; but their regret did not benefit them.
They regretted that which has occurred and their error became clear to them. (It also became clear) that some of 👁🗨the youth of the Ummah are wolves in the images of men; 👁🗨they deceive and delude;
they do not bring benefit.
They exhaust their resources in the Haraam without the fear of Allaah to prevent them from their falsehood and deter them from continuing in their crimes.
An article was written regarding (people) who were tried with this calamity and affliction; and that which occurred from (impermissible) communication and that which occurred as a result of these websites from the destruction of homes and corruption of characters and the dissolving modesty, chastity, and nobility.
It says regarding some of those who were tried with this calamity that a woman spent a number of years with her husband in tranquility and goodness; security and chastity, until she was tried with these websites at the prompting of a friend, or the likes of that. She began a relationship with a youth who deceived her and deluded her; he corrupted her against her husband and promised her that if she separates from her husband then he would be her husband. She worked until she separated from her husband due to the scheme of that despicable person.
When he caused her to fall into that which she fell into and the affair resulted in Faahishah with her, he separated from her. She called him repeatedly, but he said: "I cannot trust someone who is lowly (like you); one who deceives once would deceive again (i.e., if you deceived your husband you would deceive me) I know good women and I have proposed to them in a legislative manner, and not by way of those devices."
This, O brother, is the result of these matters. So have Taqwa of Allaah O Muslim youth. Do not begin relationships by way of these forums; such that it would harm you in your religion and corrupt your character.

"STOP watching bollywood OR HOLLYWOOD satanic movies and listening to romantic songs, they encourage young people to have haraam relationships before marriage.
Those actors and actresses sold their souls to satan for worldly pleasures (money and power) over innocent people especially muslims young generation, if you idoliize this people you will have a miserable life in this life and hell fire in next life
Instead of talking to him read Quran and do lots of dhikr and offer prayers on time that will take u to paradise IN SHA ALLAH"

The Ruling on Joking Too Much Among Friends.
Shaikh Ibn ul-‘Uthaymeen
Question: We are a group of youth who pray, fast, and do what we can of acts of worship, All praise is due to Allah.
However, when we are relaxing afterwards there is a lot of joking between us. So what is the ruling in that?
May Allah reward you.
Answer:”First, we ask Allah, the Exalted to make these brothers firm upon what they do of acts of worship and that He make that worship upon a form that He is pleased with according to the guidance of the Prophet (ﷺ) without extremism and short-coming.
We say: that you stay firm in the acts of worship you do.
As for joking afterwards, then there is no good in too much joking. It is said: joking in terms of speech is like salt in food. Food is not good without salt nor when there is a lot of salt.
Next, some people transgress in joking. So he may mention some profane words against the right of his brothers which is not befitting. Sometimes that leads to what is worse than, such as the mockery of some acts of worship from the religion.
This is very, very dangerous. It leads to disbelief and Allah’s refugee is sought. So it is upon them to joke moderately without exaggeration and short-coming”.

It was narrated that Abu Hurayrah رضي الله عنه said:
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ took my hand and said: “Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, created the earth on Saturday, and He created the mountains on Sunday. He created the trees on Monday, He created disliked (bad) things on Tuesday, He created light on Wednesday, He scattered the animals in it on Thursday, and He created Adam (peace be upon him) after ‘Asr on Friday, the last of creation in the last hour of Friday, between ‘Asr and nightfall.”
📚 Sahih Muslim (2789).
🎓 Shaykh al-Albaani ﺭﺣﻤﻪﺍﻟﻠﻪ said,
"It is not contrary to the Qur’an in any way whatsoever, in contrast to what some people may think. The hadith explains how things were created on the face of the earth, and that that happened in seven days. The statement of the Qur’an, that the creation of the heavens and the earth occurred in six days, is not contrary to that, because it is possible that these six days were something other than the seven days mentioned in the hadith.
It – I mean the hadith – is speaking of one stage in the development of creation on the face of the earth, until it became fit for habitation. This is supported by the fact that the Qur’an states that some days with Allah, may He be exalted, are as a thousand years, and some are as fifty thousand. So why shouldn’t these six days be like that? And the seven days could be like the days that we know, as the hadith clearly states. In that case there is no contradiction between this hadith and the Qur’an."
