Narrated Aisha:
With the start of the last ten days of Ramadan, the Prophet (ﷺ) used to tighten his waist belt (i.e. work hard) and used to pray all the night, and used to keep his family awake for the prayers.
Sahih Bukhari 2024
Time To BECOME even more serious. Don’t look at these last days as the end of Ramadan. Look at the last 10 days as the beginning of a new year. Strive hard in worship! Take advantage!

Some Common Doubts and Misconceptions Affiliated with Laylat al-Qadr and Their Clarification
*Doubt/Misconception 02: Laylat al-Qadr Is Specifically the 27th Night of Ramaḍān*
Shaykh Muḥammad ibn Ṣāliḥ al-ʿUthaymīn (رحمه الله) was asked: "Some of the Muslims have taken the 27th night of Ramaḍān as Laylat al-Qadr. Is there any basis for this specification?"
The Shaykh (رحمه الله) stated the following:
Yes, there is a basis for this specification. The night of the 27th of Ramaḍān is the night most likely to be Laylat al-Qadr, as is mentioned in a Ḥadīth in Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim, on the authority of ʿUbayy ibn Kaʿb (رضي الله عنه).
However, the overwhelming opinion of the people of knowledge—from the forty or more opinions—is that Laylat al-Qadr is in the last ten nights, specifically, in the last seven of those nights. So, it is possible that it could be on the 27th night, the 25th, the 26th or even the 24th night.
Consequently, it is necessary upon an individual to exert himself in worship during all the nights so that he does not deny himself the excellence and the reward to be gained in them.
● [Majmūʿ Fatāwá wā Rasāʾil al-ʿUthaymīn, vol. 14, pg. 242]
He (رحمه الله) also stated:
Is Laylat al-Qadr the 27th night? It can be the 27th or the 25 night, or any other night in the last ten nights, since the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Whoever seeks it [i.e. Laylat al-Qadr] should seek it in the last ten nights.”
In the very first year, the Messenger (ﷺ) knew that Laylat al-Qadr was in the last ten night, it occurred on the 21st night. It was shown to him (ﷺ) in a dream. In it, he (ﷺ) saw himself prostrating the following morning in water and mud, and rain fell [that year] on the 21st night.

If you don't find me in Jannah, ask about me.
"Surely the people of Jannah when they enter Jannah and they don't find those companions of theirs who were with them upon good in this world, then verily they will intercede for them in front of Allah Ta'ala and they will say:
"O Rabb we have brothers who used to read salaah and fast with us, we do not see them!?"
Allaah, jalla wa'alaa, will say:
"Go to the fire and take out any person who had even an atoms amount of Imaan in their heart!?"
[A similar narration is available in both Bukhari and Muslim from the hadith of Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudari concerning the intercession of the believers on the day of Judgment]
And Hassan Basri, rahimahu Allah, has said:
"Have lots of believing friends because they will be able to intercede for you on the day of Qiyaamah."
That's another reason to have practicing friends, they got your back in this dunya, and in the hereafter.
Choose them wisely.

Question: Why is ‘Eed named with this name?
📌Answer: “‘Eed is called ‘Eed because ‘Eed means ‘to return’ which indicates that this day returns again every year. It returns with delight and happiness.”

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "A group of people (both men and women) whose hearts will be like the hearts of birds, will enter Jannah". [Sahih Muslim, 2840].
It has been interpreted that such people are those who put their trust in Allah; another interpretation is that these people are tender- hearted.

Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah’s Apostle said, “The example of a believer is that of a fresh tender plant from whatever direction the wind comes, it bends it but when the wind becomes quiet, it becomes straight again. Similarly, a believer is afflicted with calamities (but he remains patient till Allah removes his difficulties.) And an impious wicked person is like a pine tree which keeps hard and straight till Allah cuts (breaks) it down when He wishes.”

Two times where Ibrahim's (alaihi salam) iman and tawakkul was greatly tested in regards to his wife and family are,
(1) when he had to leave his wife [Sarah] to a tyrant, and (2) when he had to leave his wife and child [Hajar and Ismael] in a barren land to Allah's Care.
He was greatly blessed to have wives who had loyalty to him. And he was blessed that Allah took care of them in situations where are man's heart would be most deeply troubled.
The #Loyalty of good wives and #Tawakkul in Allah are very heavy things in this life.

As you grow older, you begin to realise that the purpose of life is not to become rich with a big home and big car. The purpose of life is spending time with people that are close to your heart, being content with whatever you have and preparing yourself for the hereafter.

Be good manners with your family first.
“Indeed those of the people who have the highest status in goodness and are the most rightful in being characterised with the truth are those who are the best of the people to their wives.
Indeed the wife and family are those who have the most right to joy and happiness, deserving of good manners and kindness, and bringing them benefit and repelling harm from them.
When a man is like this then he is the best of the people and if he is the opposite of that, then he is at the other extreme of evil.
There are many of the people who fall into this dilemma, so you see a man who when he meets his family he is the worst of the people in manners, the most miserly person and the least of the people with goodness.
When he meets other than his family, non-relatives he becomes soft and timid, has delightful manners, and improves himself, and his goodness increases.
There is no doubt that the person who is like this then he is prohibited from success, has deviated away from the correct path. We ask Allaah for security.”
