GENERAL REMINDER:::::::
THE OFFICE CRUSH
One of the greatest tests of imaan for the 21st century muslim men is the one they face at work. First, you have to search for a job that will not take away your religious values; where you can take regular breaks to observe dhur and asr without being marked awol, where you can keep your beard and nisfusaq without being labeled ISIS...
Then, there's the worst part: working with scantily dressed, heavily made-up and intensely perfumed female colleagues who daily, flaunt themselves at you and other male coworkers. Allah help you if you happen to be a tall and handsome alfa with pink lips and a dandy sense of fashion. Those witches will not let you rest until you, at least smile back at them or laugh at their cheap jokes.
Who am I to tell you to quit that job? Not even in this recession. I only have one advice for you, yah Akhee: fear Allaah! Minimize jokes and unnecessary interactions with ladies in the office. Keep it formal. Sexual harassment within the office is real, and ladies are not always the victims; they could indeed, be the culprits.
It was narrated by Anas ibn Malik that he heard the Messenger of Allah (saw)say: ‘The eye commits ‘zina’, and the palm of the hand, the foot, the body, the tongue and private part confirms it or denies it.’
Once again, brother, fear Allaah!

Women Punished in Hell -
1. Women who will be dressed but appear to be naked
2. Inviting to evil
3. They would be inclined (to evil) and make their husbands incline towards it.
4. Their heads would be like the humps of the bukht camel inclined to one side.
They will not enter Paradise and they would not smell its odour whereas its odour would be smelt from such and such (a far) distance.
How many of our Muslim sisters are active online adorning themselves with different types of clothing and makeup, taking photographs of themselves and spreading the indecent images for millions to see, exposing themselves, dressed but appear to be naked. They don't stop with themselves, they call women to their evil way making videos on how follow them in their 'style'. Their husbands are among the worst of men on this earth, heartless blind corpses. Repent before death.
It is upon the fathers, brothers.. (men of the family) etc to prevent this because a Dayooth will not enter Jannah.
(Full hadith in Muslim Book 18, Hadith 1633)

From The Sayings Of The Salaf About Truthfulness And Sincerity...
1- The slave of Allaah cannot actualize ‘You are the One that we worship’ except with two principles: one of them is following the Messenger and the second is having sincerity (Ikhlaas) for the one worshipped.
Ibn al-Qayyim – ‘Tahdeeb al-Madrij’ 68
2- Sincerity for Allaah is that a person’s intent is for Allaah and intends everything for Him, causing fountains of wisdom to spring up from his heart on to his tongue.
Ibn Taymeeyah – ‘an-Naboowaat’ 147
3- Whenever the sincerity of the slave of Allaah strengthens, his worship becomes more complete.
Ibn Taymeeyah – ‘al-Fatawa’ 10/198
4- In relation to the amount of Tawheed a slave has for his Lord, and his sincerity for the religion for Allaah is the amount he is deserving of the generosity of Allaah upon him, from intercession and other things.
Ibn Taymeeyah – ‘As-Sarim al-Monkey’ 390
5- A person does not show his actions to the creation, except due to his ignorance of the Greatness of the Creator.
Ibn Rajab – ‘Kalimat ul-Ikhlaas’ 31
6- Ikhlaas cannot be achieved except after having Zuhud, and there is no Zuhud except after having Taqwa, and Taqwa is following the commands (of Allaah and His Messenger) and keeping away from prohibitions.
Ibn Taymeeyah – ‘al-Fatawa’ 1/94
7- Strive today in implementing Tawheed, since there is nothing that will deliver you to Allaah except Tawheed. Also, be eager in fulfilling its rights, since there is nothing that can save you from the fire except Tawheed.
Ibn Rajab – ‘Kalimat ul-Ikhlaas’ 54
8- Whoever is sincere in regards to the actions of the Deen, which he does for Allaah, then he is from the pious Awliyah of Allaah.
Ibn Taymeeyah – ‘al-Fatawa’ 1/8
9- If you correct your hidden deeds subsequently Allaah will correct your outward deeds.
Ibn Taymeeyah – ‘al-Fatawa’ 3/277
10- Having the correct understanding of the Deen is light which Allaah throws into the heart of the slave of Allaah, which is increased by having the Taqwa of Allaah and having good intent.
Ibn al-Qayyim – ‘Ilaam al-Muaq’een’ 1/69
11- Ikhlaas is the way to salvation, Islaam is the ship to safety and Emaan is the seal of security.
Ibn al-Qayyim – ‘Dar miftah as-Sa’ada’ 1/74
12- Certainly the strength of Yusuf’s sincerity – alayhi sallam – was stronger than the beauty of Azeez’s wife, stronger than her allure, and his want for her.
Ibn Taymeeyah – ‘al-Fatawa’ 10/602
13 – The heart of the truthful person is filled with the light of truth and he has the light of Emaan.
Ibn al-Qayyim – ‘Madarij as-Salikeen’ 2/282
14- The sincere person is fortified by Allaah due to his worship of Him Alone, intending his Face Alone. He has humility for Him Alone, and hope in Him Alone, requesting from Him Alone, submissiveness for Him Alone and has a dire need of Him Alone.
Ibn al-Qayyim – ‘Madarij as-Salikeen’ 2/202
15- There is nothing that drives away the afflictions of this world except Tawheed. That is why the supplication of the distressed person is with Tawheed. Such as, the supplication of Yunus. The distressed person does not supplicate by what Yunus supplicated with except that Allaah releases him from his hardship with Tawheed.
There is nothing more gruesome for the distressed person except shirk, and there is nothing that can rescue you from it except Tawheed, it is the refuge for the creation, its shelter, its fortress and its aid.
Ibn al-Qayyim – ‘al-Fawaid’ 96
16-The reward is doubled in accordance with one perfecting his Islaam and with his perfecting the strength of Ikhlaas, in that action.
Ibn Rajab – ‘Jama’ al-Aloom’ 2/316
17- If a benefit could be achieved from an action performed without Ikhlaas, then Allaah would not have criticised the hypocrites.
Ibn al-Qayyim – ‘al-Fawaid’ 65
18- Without doubt al-Ikhlaas negates the reason for entering into the Fire, therefore, who ever enters the fire, from those who said: ‘‘la illah ila Allaah’ (there is none worthy of worship except Allaah)’ then this is proof that he never implemented the sincerity of ‘‘la illah ila All

aah’’ which would have prohibited him from the fire.
Ibn Taymeeyah – ‘al-Fatawa’ 10/261

Ibn Rajab – ‘Jama’ al-Aloom’ 2/417

Ibn Taymeeyah – ‘al-Fatawa’ 10/545

Ibn Taymeeyah – ‘al-Fatawa’ 10/215
22- The different grades of doing actions for Allaah are in relation to what is in the heart from Emaan, sincerity, love and that what follows them.
Ibn al-Qayyim – ‘al-Waabil as-Sayib’ 22
23- Sincerity is not combined in the heart along with the love of being praised by the people, and being commended by them, and also having greed for what the people have, except like water being combined with fire.
Ibn al-Qayyim – ‘al-Fawaid’ 267
24- Ikhlaas and Tawheed are a tree in the heart. Its branches are good actions. Its fruits are a good life in this world, and eternal comfort in the Hereafter, and just like in Paradise the fruits whose supply is not cut off, nor are they out of reach, likewise are the fruits of Tawheed and Ikhlaas in this world.
Ibn al-Qayyim – ‘al-Fawaid’ 292
25- An action done without Ikhlaas and without following the Messenger is like a traveler whose sock becomes filled with sand, which weighs him down, and has no benefit.
Ibn al-Qayyim – ‘al-Fawaid’ 89
26- Allaah loves from His slave that he beautifies his tongue with the truth, and his heart with Ikhlaas and love, turning repentantly and reliance upon Allaah.
Ibn al-Qayyim – ‘al-Fawaid’ 327
27- Having sincerity for the Deen of Allaah is the foundation of justice, likewise committing Shirk with Allaah is a great injustice.

Benefit: The Woman’s Voice Is a Source of Fitnah...
In the Name of Allāh, the Ever Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy
Shaykh Muqbil ibn Hādī al-Wādiʿī (رحمه الله) said:
“It is necessary that the woman speaks only when it is required of her because her voice may be a source of fitnah for a man, and Allāh’s aid is sought. We do not say, ‘The woman’s voice is a part of her ‘awrah’; however, it is a source of fitnah.”

15 points from the Qur’aan and the Sunnah for the Reasons Why All Du
#5: Since we are less concerned for our own self, then how much more less we might be concerned for others. O brothers! Supplicate for your brothers and the angels of Allaah will supplicate for you.
#6: Sometimes we pray for others but forget to pray for our own self.
#7: We are impatient in our Du
#8: Showing uncertainty while supplicating or having doubts that the supplication will be answered.
#9: The best time to make Du
#11: We fail to ask from Allaah alone. Instead, amongst us are those who call the dead or the “saints” to help them in the times of need...
#12: We are so dependent upon Allaah for our daily needs from the food we eat, the water we drink, and the air we breathe to anything and everything. But even then we rebel against Allaah by committing sins. So how much more rebellious and treacherous we would be, had Allaah accepted our every supplication???
#13: We have overlooked one of the biggest hindrance which prevents our Du`aa’ from being answered and that is unlawful earnings.
#14: Allaah is not in need of our prayers, but it is we who are in need of His help. So, why do we expect Allaah to help us when we are making Him angry by committing sins? The proper way is to seek His pleasure (by worshiping Him alone) and then to ask Him for our needs.
#15: Allaah commanded us to enjoin what’s good and forbid what’s evil. But look at us, we do the opposite. We enjoin what is evil (sharing cigarettes, movies, music etc.) and little do we call towards righteousness.
For details, click on the link:
http://ilm4all.blogspot.com/2010/06/reasons-why-all-dua-supplications-are.html?m=1
a Are Not Accepted:
#1: We fail to ask Allaah for help, nor do we humble ourselves in front of Him.
#2: We fail to glorify Allaah تعالى or fail to send the blessings upon the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم before beginning our supplication.
#3: We sometimes lack proper judgment in deciding what is good or bad for us. In this materialistic world, our decisions are more often based on emotions rather than being based on wisdom.
#4: We are not constant in our Duaa’. We fail to seek Allaah's help in our times of needs as we fail to thank Him in our times of ease.#5: Since we are less concerned for our own self, then how much more less we might be concerned for others. O brothers! Supplicate for your brothers and the angels of Allaah will supplicate for you.
#6: Sometimes we pray for others but forget to pray for our own self.

aa’ nor are we constant in our Duaa’, but still want our supplications to be answered quickly.#8: Showing uncertainty while supplicating or having doubts that the supplication will be answered.
#9: The best time to make Du
aa’ and we sleep over it...

#15: Allaah commanded us to enjoin what’s good and forbid what’s evil. But look at us, we do the opposite. We enjoin what is evil (sharing cigarettes, movies, music etc.) and little do we call towards righteousness.

"A BAD HABIT: [EEECH! EEEW! THE FOOD IS HORRIBLE!]...
In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy
Narrated Abu Hurairah (radiyallaahu-anhu): The Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) never criticized any food, but he would eat it if he liked it; otherwise he would leave it. [Saheeh al-Bukhaari Number 3563]
Short commentary by Imaam Abdul-Azeez Bin Baaz (rahimahullaah) on the above hadeeth:
Imaam Abdul Azeez Bin Baaz (rahimahullaah) said: This is from his [i.e. the Messenger (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam)] noble manners. He would neither say that it is salty nor the opposite of it.
Question: What if one says the food is such and such in order to warn (or notify the people)? Answer: There is no harm in doing so, for warning (or notifying) is something else because it is done to educate (people about food etc). [End of quote (Ref 1)]
Ibn ‘Umar reported that there were some persons with Allaah’s Prophet (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) from among his Companions, Sa’d being one of them. There was brought to them the flesh of the lizard when a lady amongst the wives of Allaah’s Prophet (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) said: It is the flesh of the lizard. Thereupon Allaah’s Messenger (way sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) said: Eat, for it is lawful, but it is not my diet. [Ref 2]
Abdullah bin ‘Abbas reported: I and Khalid bin Al-Walid went to the apartment of Maimuna along with Allaah’s Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam), and there was presented to him a roasted lizard. Allaah’s Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) stretched his hand towards it, whereupon some of the women who had been in the house of Maimuna said: Inform Allaah’s Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) what he intends to eat. Allaah’s Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) lifted his hand. I said: ”Messenger of Allaah, is it forbidden? He said: ”No. It is not found in the land of my people, and I feel that I have no liking for it. Khalid said: I then chewed and ate it, while, Allaah’s Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) was looking (at me). [end of quote (Ref 3)]
We ask Allaah (The Most High) to grant us the Tawfeeq to follow and imitate the Messenger (sallal-laahu-alayhi- wasallam) in every affair and forgive us our shortcomings and bad habits. Aameen

" WARNING to those who see Evil but remain silent about it"
The Messenger of ALLAH ﷺ ...warned us:
There is no group of people among evil deeds are done in their midst. And they do not change {the Evil. By forbidding it} When they're capable except that they are on the verge of being punished by ALLAH collectively {Abu Dawood}
