A man came to the Prophet صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ and asked him:
“What shall I say when I implore my Lord?’
The Messenger of Allāh صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ said:
‘Say: O’ Allāh, grant me forgiveness, bestow mercy upon me, grant me well-being and provide me with provision. Certainly, this supplication is better for you in this life and in the Afterlife.’”

Ibn Salamah As-Sulami (رضي الله عنه) narrated that the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said: "I enjoin each one to honor his mother, I enjoin each one to honor his mother, I enjoin each one to honor his mother (three times), I enjoin each one to honor his guardian who is taking care of him, even if he is causing him some annoyance."

Narrated By Abu Huraira : A man demanded his debts from Allah's Apostle in such a rude manner that the companions of the Prophet intended to harm him, but the Prophet said, "Leave him, no doubt, for he (the creditor) has the right to demand it (harshly). Buy a camel and give it to him." They said, "The camel that is available is older than the camel he demands. "The Prophet said, "Buy it and give it to him, for the best among you are those who repay their debts handsomely."

Prophet ﷺ said :
*“The stronger believer is better and more beloved to Allah than the weak believer, although both are good. Strive to seek that which will benefit you and do not feel helpless. If something overwhelms you, then say: Qaddarallah, wa ma sha'a fa’al (It is the decree of Allah and what He wills He does). And beware of (saying) ‘If only,’ for ‘If only’ opens the door to Satan.”*
[Ibn Majah | Vol. 5, Book 37, Hadith 4168]
This hadees is teaching the believers to build positive mindsets and avoid the pitfalls of negativity. In short, we are taught that the strong believer is more beloved than the weak one. Therefore, one should strive for what benefits and helps attain strength. But one should do so relying upon Allah alone and, of course, never give up on such an endeavour. If one faces an obstacle or seems to fail, one should not allow “if only” to pollute the heart and mind. This statement should not affect one’s good assumptions of Allah, but rather reaffirm that He is in control of affairs and that He knows best.
By reflecting over this powerful hadees and remembering its core message and many lessons, it only re-emphasises that the Sharīʿah wants believers to be productive and positive in all beneficial endeavours, and certainly recognises and promotes the need to look after one’s mental well-being.
We ask Allah to make us of those who follow the teachings of this hadees and to be from amongst the strong believers.
Aameen!

Be Mindful Of Allaah And He Will Protect You : An-Nawawi 40 Hadith
On the authority of Abu Abbas Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) who said:
One day I was behind the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) [riding on the same mount] and he said, “O young man, I shall teach you some words [of advice]:
Be mindful of Allah and Allah will protect you.
Be mindful of Allah and you will find Him in front of you.
If you ask, then ask Allah [alone]; and if you seek help, then seek help from Allah [alone].
And know that if the nation were to gather together to benefit you with anything, they would not benefit you except with what Allah had already prescribed for you. And if they were to gather together to harm you with anything, they would not harm you except with what Allah had already prescribed against you. The pens have been lifted and the pages have dried.”
It was related by at-Tirmidhi, who said it was a good and sound hadeeth.
Another narration, other than that of Tirmidhi, reads:
Be mindful of Allah, and you will find Him in front of you.
Recognize and acknowledge Allah in times of ease and prosperity, and He will remember you in times of adversity.
And know that what has passed you by [and you have failed to attain] was not going to befall you, and what has befallen you was not going to pass you by.
And know that victory comes with patience, relief with affliction, and hardship with ease.

🔺 *Debt is a very serious matter, indeed*🔺
By Asma bint Shameem
Many people have adopted a very casual approach to being in debt and take out loans, not for some urgent need, but because they want to unnecessarily keep up with others in buying bigger homes, faster cars, more furniture or clothes or other temporary luxuries of this life.
But taking loans and being in debt is a GRAVE matter.
Islaam takes the matter of debt very seriously and warns against it and urges the Muslim to avoid it as much as possible.
And I am NOT talking about taking an “interest based” loan.
That is forbidden for SURE.
The kind of loan I am talking about is one WITHOUT interest, one that does NOT involve Ribaa;
The kind that is *allowed*, yet *discouraged* in Islaam.
And yet, we don’t see it as such.
🔺 *1) The Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam) used to seek protection from it.
The Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam) used to say in his prayer:
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ الْمَأْثَمِ وَالْمَغْرَمِ
“Allaahumma inni a’oodhi bika min al-ma’tham wa’l-maghram
“O Allaah, I seek refuge with You from sin and heavy debt.”
Someone said to him: “How often you seek refuge from heavy debt!”
He said: “When a man gets into debt, he speak and tells lies, and he makes a promise and breaks it.”
(al-Bukhaari and Muslim).
🔺 2) The person in debt will not enter Jannah until the debt is paid off!
Muhammad ibn Jahsh radhi Allaahu anhu said:
“We were sitting with the Messenger of Allaah Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam when he raised his head towards the sky, then he put his palm on his forehead and said:
“Subhaan-Allaah!
What a strict issue has been revealed to me!”
We remained silent and were afraid. The following morning I asked him:
“O Messenger of Allaah, what is this strict issue that has been revealed?”
He said,
“By the One in Whose hand is my soul, if a man were killed in battle for the sake of Allaah, then brought back to life, then killed and brought back to life again, then killed, and he owed a debt, he would not enter Jannah until his debt was paid off.” (al-Nasaa’i- hasan by al-Albaani)
🔺 3) The Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam) didn’t pray his Janazah!
The Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam) did not lead the funeral prayer for someone who had died owing three dinars, until Abu Qataadah radhi Allaahu anhu said:
O Allah's Messenger! Lead his funeral prayer, and I will pay his debt." So, he led the salat (prayer).
(al-Bukhaari)
🔺 4) Freedom from debt makes entry into Jannah EASY.
The Prophet sal Allaahu Alayhi wa sallam said:
“Whoever dies free from three things – arrogance, cheating and debt – will enter Jannah.”
(al-Tirmidhi (1572); saheeh by al-Albaani)
🔺 5) The soul of the one in debt is suspended!
The Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam) said:
“Your companion is being detained by his debt.” (Abu Dawood- hasan by al-Albaani).
And he said:
“The soul of the believer is held hostage by his debt in his grave until it is paid off.”
(at-Tirmidhi: saheeh by al-Albaani)
🍃 Explaining this hadeeth al-Suyooti said:
“It (soul) is detained and kept from reaching its noble destination.
🍃 Al-‘Iraaqi said:
“No judgment is passed as to whether it will be saved or doomed until it is determined whether his debt will be paid off or not.”
🔺 Statements of Sahaabah regarding debt
🍃 Umar ibn al-Khattaab said:
“Beware of debt, for it starts with worry and it ends with war.”
(Maalik in al-Muwatta).
🍃 And Ibn ‘Umar said:
“O Humraan, fear Allaah and do not die in debt, lest it be taken from your good deeds when there will be no dinars and no dirhams.”
🔺 When is taking a loan permissible?
The Ulama warn us about how difficult the issue of debt is, and that it should not be undertaken except in cases of necessity.
Based on this, there are three conditions for debt to be permissible:
🍃 1- The borrower should be determined to repay it.
🍃 2- It should be known or thought most likely that he is able to repay it,
🍃 3- It should be for something that is permissible a

🍃 2- It should be known or thought most likely that he is able to repay it,
🍃 3- It should be for something that is permissible a
ccording to Sharee’ah.
🔺 Ibn ‘Abd al-Barr said:
“The debt for which a person will be kept out of Paradise – and Allaah knows best – is that for which he left behind enough to pay it off but he did not leave instructions to that effect, or he was able to pay it off but did not do so, or he took the loan for some unlawful or extravagant matter and died without having paid it off.
As for the one who took a loan for something lawful because he was poor, and he died without leaving behind anything to pay it off, Allaah will not keep him from Paradise because of it, in sha Allaah.”
So take a loan only when absolutely necessary.
And if you are in a situation of debt right now, try your utmost best to pay off your debts as soon as possible.
Strive hard to pay it off, don’t take it lightly, put your trust in Allaah, and pray to Him to make it easy for you to pay off your debt.
🍃 The Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam) said:
“The one who takes people’s wealth intending to pay it back, Allaah will pay it back for him, and the one who takes it intending to destroy it, Allaah will destroy him.”
(al-Bukhaari).
There are a number of duas in the Sunnah that the Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alaiyhi wa Sallam) used to make to help him stay away from all kinds of debt and to pay off any debts a person may have.
We should try and read those duaas and do our best to pay off our debts we may have, as soon as possible.
May Allaah help us to do that. Ameen.
And Allaah knows best
🔺 Ibn ‘Abd al-Barr said:
“The debt for which a person will be kept out of Paradise – and Allaah knows best – is that for which he left behind enough to pay it off but he did not leave instructions to that effect, or he was able to pay it off but did not do so, or he took the loan for some unlawful or extravagant matter and died without having paid it off.
As for the one who took a loan for something lawful because he was poor, and he died without leaving behind anything to pay it off, Allaah will not keep him from Paradise because of it, in sha Allaah.”
So take a loan only when absolutely necessary.
And if you are in a situation of debt right now, try your utmost best to pay off your debts as soon as possible.
Strive hard to pay it off, don’t take it lightly, put your trust in Allaah, and pray to Him to make it easy for you to pay off your debt.

It is reported that Al-Dahhāk said:
How surprising it is that the companions of ʿAbdulāh (ibn Mas’ūd) are looking now to see where the sun rises from. Do they not know that when Fajr comes from a direction, the sun rises from the same?
It is reported that Jundub b. ʿAbdillāh Al-Bajalī said:
I once sought permission to see Ḥudhayfah three times without being given permission. So I left, but his messenger caught up with me. [When I spoke to Ḥudhayfah] he asked, “What made you leave?” I replied, “I thought you were sleeping (after Fajr).” He said, “I do not sleep until I see where the sun rises from.” [The narrator] said, “I related this to Muḥammad (another narrator), to which he said, ‘More than one of the Companions of Muḥammad – Allāah’s praise and peace be upon him – did this.’”

“Whoever abandons habits for the sake of someone or something other than Allah, will surely suffer hard and difficult times.
However, whoever abandons habits for the sake of Allah sincerely from his heart, he will not suffer from leaving it except at the beginning so that his credibility will be examined.
If he bears this pain it will be turned into pleasure.”
