Salatul Duha | The Forenoon Prayer
One of the optional prayers is Salatul Duha.
It is a Sunnah Mu’akkadah (supererogatory). Abu Dharr Radhiallahu ‘anhu reported:
The Prophet (sallallāhualayhi wasallam) said,
“In the morning, charity is due on every joint of the body of every one of you. Every utterance of Allah’s Glorification (i.e., saying Subhan Allah) is an act of charity, every utterance of His Praise (i.e., saying Al-hamdu lillah) is an act of charity, every utterance of declaration of His Greatness (i.e., saying La ilaha ill Allah) is an act of charity, and every utterance of declaration of His Power (i.e. saying Allah Akbar); and enjoining M
Its time
The time of Duha prayer is from the time when the sun has risen to a certain height, until just before the time for Zuhr prayer. Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen defined it as being from a quarter of an hour after the sun has risen until ten minutes before Zuhr prayer.
Al-Sharh al-Mumti’, 4/122
So all of this period is the time for Duha prayer.
It is better to pray it after the sun’s heat has become intense, because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
“It is preferable to offer Duha prayer when the sun’s heat has become so intense that even the young of the camels feel it.”
Narrated by Muslim, 748
Ibn Baaz: Majmoo’ Fataawa, 11/395
The scholars defined this as being when one quarter of the day has passed, i.e., halfway between sunrise and Zuhr prayer.
See al-Majmoo’ by al-Nawawi, 4/36; al-Mawsoo’ah al-Fiqhiyyah, 27/224 .

Abu Huraira Radhiallahu ‘anhu said : “
My Khalil (friend) (the Prophet Shalallahu ‘alaihi wa Salam) advised me to observe three things and I shall not leave them till I die:
1. “To observe Saum (fasting) three days every (lunar) month;
2.” To offer the Duha prayer;
3. To offer Witr prayer before sleeping.” (Sahih al-Bukhari 1981)

Why students lose knowledge they had memorised ?
Question:
“Many students suffer from forgetfulness of knowledge which they had memorized and loss of benefits they read about. So what therefore is the ideal solution for this problem in your opinion oh virtuous Shaykh?”
Answer:
“The reasons for weak memorization are many. From them; sins. For indeed sins bring about forgetfulness. Allah تبارك وتعالى says:
{So because of their breach of their covenant, We cursed them, and made their hearts grow hard. They change the words from their (right) places and have abandoned (نسوا=abandoned, forgot) a good part of the Message that was sent to them.} [Surah Al-Maidah 05:13]
And Imam Ash-Shafi'y said: "I complained to Waki` about my bad memorization. So he advised me to abandon sins.
He said: “Know that knowledge is light. And Allah's Light is not granted to a disobedient (sinner)!"
And from the reasons for forgetfulness: Is that a person does not read regularly what he has memorized, meaning he does not revise it. And the proof for that is the saying of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم: “Read this Qur’aan regularly”, meaning revise it, “for, by the One in Whose hand is the soul of Muhammad, it is more likely to escape than a hobbled camel.” [Sahih Muslim]
Thirdly: Frequent preoccupation. When a person has many things that preoccupy him he'll subsequently forget. Because the heart is a container and he is the vessel. And this vessel has a limit and a restricted capacity. If it is filled with something there is no space for anything else. Thus if a person has no spare time and is constantly preoccupied, those things which keep him busy a lot cause forgetfulness.
And also from the reasons for forgetfulness is not acting upon the knowledge. Hence if you act upon what you know then your action is considered implementation; implementation of knowledge. An example being: If you learnt that Wudhu has to be done in order and you perform it aft

WEARING HAIR IN A BUN AT THE BACKFLIP OF THE HEAD UNDER THE HIJAB - BY Shaikh Al -Albani & Ibn Uthymeen
Compiled & Translated by Abbas Abu Yahya
The Hadeeth
From Abu Hurairah who said the Messenger of Allaah -SallAllaahu alayhi wa Sallam- said:
صنفان من أهل النار لم أرهما قوم معهم سياط كأذناب البقر يضربون بها الناس ونساء كاسيات عاريات مميلات مائلات رءوسهن كأسنمة البخت المائلة لا يدخلن الجنة ولا يجدن ريحها وإن ريحها ليوجد من مسيرة كذا وكذا
‘There are two types of the people of the Hell-Fire who I have not seen, a people who have whips like cows’ tails with which they are hitting the people, and women who will be naked in spite of being dressed, who are seduced (to wrong paths) and seduce others, their heads will be high like a camel with humps they will not enter Paradise, nor will they find its fragrance, even though its fragrance can be found from travelling such and such distance.’
[Collected by Imam Ahmad in ‘al-Musnad’ & Muslim in ‘as-Saheeh’]
Shaykh, Allaama, Muhadith Muhammad Nasir Deen al-Albaani – May Allaah have mercy upon him.
The Questioner:
‘What is the ruling of a woman gathering her hair above her neck at the back of the head whereby it is shaped like a ball, taking into consideration that when a woman covers herself with Hijaab the shape of her hair would be apparent from her Hijaab?’
Shaykh Albaani said:
‘This is a mistake many women who wear Hijaab fall into, whereby they gather their hair at the back of the head and it bulges out from the back of their head, even though they have covered it with covering Hijaab over it.
Indeed this opposes a condition from the conditions of Hijaab, which I had gathered in my book ‘Hijaab Al-Marata Al-Muslimah min Al-Kitab wa Sunnah‘. From these conditions is that the clothing should not show the shape of the limb or anything from the woman’s body, this is why it is not permissible for a woman to put her hair in a circular shape at the back of her head or at the side of her head whereby it bulges out, so that it appears to the one who sees her, even unintentionally that she has shaggy hair or that she has little hair.
It is obligatory that it is left hanging and not piled up/crumpled up.’

The Ruling of a Woman Winding up her Hair at the Top of her head
Shaykh Allaama Muhammad bin Salih al-Uthaymeen – May Allaah have mercy upon him.
Question:
‘Some women gather their hair in the shape of a bun at the back of the head, does this enter into the warning mentioned in the Hadeeth: ‘Women whose heads will be like the inclined hump of a camel they will not enter Paradise’.
Shaykh al-Uthaymeen said:
‘If a woman gathers her hair for when she is busy working away, then afterwards she lets it down, then there is no harm in this, since she does not do this as an adornment or beautification but rather out of necessity.
As for gathering her hair and raising it up for the purpose of beautification, and it is facing upwards then it enters under the prohibition, due to the saying of the Prophet -sallAllahu alayhi wa sallam:
‘Their heads will be like the hump of a camel.’
A camel hump is at the top, and if the hair is above the neck then it does not enter under the Hadeeth. However, it is warned against doing so if a woman wants to go out to the market, since if she goes out to the market and gathers her hair on her head then it will appear from within her Abaya (outer garment), and it will cause attention, so she is prohibited from having this hair-style if she goes out to the market places.

PARENTS DON'T DO THIS MISTAKE WITH UR CHILDREN.
From the means by which a Jinn can overpower and possess the children
A very important point
Shaikh Ibn al-`Uthaymeen رحمه الله said:
❝Some of the foolish, ignorant people, lacking intelligence, scare their small innocent children and frighten them by saying: so-and-so will come (and take you), or so-and-so will (do such-and-such to you). So the child gets scared and this fear and anxiety remains in his heart, and this becomes permanent in his heart so that he is constantly in anxiety, fear and distress.
Sometimes it is the father who scares his son and sometimes it is the mother who scares her son and daughter.
But the most foolish ones are those who tell us that the when a child does something wrong (then as punishment) he should be locked inside his room, alone. And even when he shouts and screams they do not feel sorry for him nor do they open the door.
And this is one of the means by which a Jinn overpowers (and possesses) the child. This was conveyed by one of the Jinns who had possessed a child and said that he entered in him when his father had locked him inside the room, and he began to shout and scream, and that's when he possessed him.
So we should be alert and take precautions from the things which can become a means for the Jinn to overpower us.❞

How to correctly avoid evil eye.
Summary: Say “Barak Allaahu ‘Alayk” which means “May Allaah’s blessing be upon you” to avoid evil eye.
Not “Maa Shaa’ Allaah” which means “What Allaah wills.”
Evidence: Once a man praised another man for having very beautiful skin and claimed he had never even seen a virgin with such beautiful skin.
The man became ill on the spot, and upon hearing about this, the Prophet asked: “Why did you not say, May Allaah bless you?”
Source: Muwaṭṭā Mālik (no. 1972, 1973)
Evidence No. 2: The Prophet said: When one of you sees in a person something which amazes him, then let him supplicate (to Allaah) to bless him.
Source: Jāmī’ Mu‘mār (no. 19766)
Evidence against Maa Shaa’ Allaah: The Prophet is reported to have said:
“Whoever sees something that amazes him, let him say: “Maa shaa’ Allaah, Laa Quwwata illaa billaah.”
Hence, by doing so that person won’t be affected by the evil eye.
Source: Ibn as-Sunni’s Amal yaum wal-lail” (207)
Grade: Shaykh Albanee graded its chain as “Dha`eef Jiddan” (extremely weak) in Takhreej al-Kalim al-Tayyib
Final point: If you think you have given someone evil eye, say “Allaahumma baarik ‘alaih” which means “O’ Allaah send your blessings upon him.”

The Prophet (sallalalhu 'alayhi wa sallam)'s guidance on preserving the health with perfume
Good scents and perfumes are nutrition for the soul, and the soul is the dynamo of the rest of the body's powers. Perfume helps the brain, the heart and the internal organs and brings comfort to the heart and the soul. Perfumes are also the most suitable and favourable remedy and substance for the soul. Also, there is a close connection between the good soul and scented perfumes. this is why perfumes were among the dearest substances in this world to the heart of the most pure of all people, the Prophet (sallalalhu 'alayhi wa sallam).
Al Bukhari narrated that the Prophet (sallalalhu 'alayhi wa sallam) used to always accept perfume when presented to him. Also, Muslim narrated that the Messenger of Allaah (sallalalhu 'alayhi wa sallam) said:
'He who is offered Raihan (basil) should not refuse it, because it is easy to wear and has good scent.'
Further Abu Dawud and An-Nasai'i narrated that the Prophet (sallalalhu 'alayhi wa sallam) said:
'Whoever is offered some perfume should not refuse it because it is light to wear and has a good scent.'
Ibn Abi Shaibah also narrated that the Messenger of Allaah (sallalalhu 'alayhi wa sallam) had a container that had some perfume in it and he used to perfume himself with it. The Prophet (sallalalhu 'alayhi wa sallam) also said:
' Allaah has a right on every Muslim that he takes a bath (at least once) in every seven days and if he has perfume to wear some of it.'

Good scents and perfumes are nutrition for the soul, and the soul is the dynamo of the rest of the body's powers. Perfume helps the brain, the heart and the internal organs and brings comfort to the heart and the soul. Perfumes are also the most suitable and favourable remedy and substance for the soul. Also, there is a close connection between the good soul and scented perfumes. this is why perfumes were among the dearest substances in this world to the heart of the most pure of all people, the Prophet (sallalalhu 'alayhi wa sallam).
Al Bukhari narrated that the Prophet (sallalalhu 'alayhi wa sallam) used to always accept perfume when presented to him. Also, Muslim narrated that the Messenger of Allaah (sallalalhu 'alayhi wa sallam) said:
'He who is offered Raihan (basil) should not refuse it, because it is easy to wear and has good scent.'
Further Abu Dawud and An-Nasai'i narrated that the Prophet (sallalalhu 'alayhi wa sallam) said:
'Whoever is offered some perfume should not refuse it because it is light to wear and has a good scent.'

Shiekh ubayd al-jabiri حفظه الله said:
The Sahaaba reported that when they learned the Qur`aan, they would memorize 10 ayat at a time and would not proceed to the next 10 ayat until they had learned what the ayat meant and they had implemented them. 'Abdullaah ibn Mas'ood (radiallaahu 'anhu) said: "We would learn 10 verses directly from the mouth of the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam), and we would not exceed that until we had learned their meaning and acted upon them. We learned knowledge and actions (together)."

Some wealthy people spend money on building masjids and bridges but only to show off and gain reputation. He writes his name on the establishment. Had his deed been for Allah's sake he would not have done so. And if he were to be asked to build a wall and write his name on it he would not have done so!
