Sh. Ibn ʿUthaymeen Raḥimahullāh said:

“The (2 Rakʿāt) Sunnah of Fajr is unique from other Sunnahs by the affairs that:

• It has specific recitation i.e Sūrah al-Kāfiroon in first Rakʿah and Sūrah al-Ikhlāṣ in the second Rakʿah OR Sūrah al-Baqarah Āyah no. 136 in first Rakʿah and Sūrah Āl-e-ʿImrān Āyah no. 64 in the second Rakʿah

• It is light (i.e kept short and brief) and not heavy (lengthy)

• It is prayed whether one is travelling or not

• And it has a great reward¹.”

● [صفة الصلاة ١٩٠]

¹Prophet Ṣallallāhu-ʿAlaihi Wa Sallam said: “The 2 Rakʿāt (Sunnah) of Fajr is BETTER than the world and whatever it contains (of jewels and riches).” — [Narrated By Muslim]

🖋 Be Patient With Your Duʿā

Prophet Muḥammad Ṣallallāhu-ʿAlaihi Wa Sallam said:

“The supplication (Duʿā) of any one of you is answered AS LONG as he doesn't get impatient and says: ‘I made Duʿā and it wasn't answered for me’!!”

● [الأدب المفرد للإمام البخاري ٦٥٤ ، صححه الألباني]

*Neglecting Dhikr has an amazing impact in causing a sense of distress, anxiety and pain!!!!*

Ibnul-Qayyim (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
One of the means of finding tranquillity is always remembering Him in all situations and in all places, for Dhikr has an amazing impact in bringing tranquillity and a sense of joy, and neglecting it has an amazing impact in causing a sense of distress, anxiety and pain.

❝Never give up hope of Allaah's #Mercy. No one despairs of the Mercy of Allaah, except the people who disbelieve.❞ [Al-Qur'aan: Surah Yousuf 12:87]

The Prophet Moḥammed (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said: ❝The people who were not tested in this Dunya will wish their skins were cut up when they see the rewards for those who were tested.❞

Shaykh Muhammad ibn Sālih al-‘Uthaymeen رحمه الله said:

“From foolishness is to come to a grave of a person who has decayed; to supplicate to him and worship him. Yet, he is the one in need of your supplication!”

“The land does not make anyone holy, it is the deeds of a man that make him pure”

—Salman Al Farsi
[Siyaar Vol 1 pg 549]

The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ in a span of 23 years created a streamlined society of people who had self-respect and were self-motivated. The Prophet ﷺ focus was not on building monuments and beautifying places of worship with riches of this world. Instead the mosque of the Prophet ﷺ was the knowledge centre. It was akin to an educational institution and in a short span of time, the Prophet ﷺ was able to give a vision and a purpose of life to his companions. They learnt the rulings on business transactions, financial transactions, legitimate sales transactions, acquiring skills in order to be self-sufficient, leadership training, health tips, along with the essential knowledge of the religion, worship, etc.

He was the last Prophet ﷺ of God sent to the mankind. There is no one who will come as a Prophet of God after him. When we read the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ life, we realise how remarkable his achievements have been in a span of mere 23 years.

Yusuf عليه السلام said to his brother: "grieve not!"

Shuaib عليه السلام said to Musa عليه السلام:
"fear not!"
Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم said to his companion: "be not sad!"

Spreading reassurance amongst people in an hour of anxiety is from the method of the prophets.

P.S: Don't Panic and don't let others around you panic. Increase your Tawakkal in Allaah SubhaanaHu wa Ta'ala and reassure others about it.

Work for Aakhirah for verily this Dunia is so temporary!

Assuming good about beggars - أعطوا السائل

The Prophet is reported to have said:

‏ أَعْطُوا السَّائِلَ وَإِنْ جَاءَ عَلَى فَرَسٍ

"GIVE TO A BEGGAR, EVEN IF HE COMES ON A HORSE."

["Muwatta Malik", 1846 - وهو مختلف فيه
Al-Iraqi said: وسنده جيد.
Ibn Abdul-Barr said: سنده ليس بالقوي ].
https://sunnah.com/urn/518270

Meaning: A horse was a symbol of prosperity and financial stability in those days - like a car today.

So this means, assume good, don't assume that the beggar is rich and a fraudster - even if he looks like he is well off.

Imam al-Bayhaqi explained in light of this Hadith that a person may have many dependents and may no longer have a job, so we should still help him, even if he comes on a horse.

I admit, I have been guilty of this myself. At times, I have been asked and I have thought: "he will use the money to buy drugs, wine, cigarettes", etc.

We don't know that.

That's a trick of the devil to stop us from giving charity.

They may have other needs which we don't know about.

We will be rewarded for our charity and good intentions, even if the beggar turns out to be a fraud.

However, if we know for CERTAIN that a certain individual is a fake - then we shouldn't be gullible and not give them any charity.

There are also many professional fake beggars on Facebook.

They add you as friend, then try to be friendly with you to win your trust and then ask you for money.

Not all are fake of course, but some are fake.

We should be vigilant, but assume good of people.

Allahu A'alam

Uthman bin Abi Al-'As narrated:

“The Messenger of Allaah ﷺ came to me while I had a pain that almost ruined me. So,the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ said:

“Rub it with your right hand seven times and say:

أَعُوذُ بِعِزَّةِ اللَّهِ وَقُوَّتِهِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا أَجِدُ

A’Oothu bi’ Izzatillaahi wa qudratihi wa sultanihi min sharri ma ajid."

“I seek refuge in Allaah’s might, power, an authority, from the evil of what I suffer.

He said:

“So I did it, and Allaah removed what I had, and I never ceased telling my family and others to do it."

(Tirmidhi Vol. 4, Book 2, Hadith 2080)

Its sahih. I checked ❤️

It was narrated that ‘Uthman bin Abul-‘As Thaqafi said:

“I came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and I was suffering pain that was killing me.

The Prophet (ﷺ) said to me:

‘Put your right hand on it and say:

“Bismillah, aOothu bi’izzatil-lahi wa qudratihi min sharri ma ajidu wa uhadhiru.”

“In the Name of Allaah, I seek refuge in the might and power of Allaah from the evil of what I feel and what I fear),” seven times.

‘I said that, and Allaah healed me.”

(Ibn Majah Vol. 4, Book 31, Hadith 3522)

Also sahih. I checked ❤️

Love learning all the different wordings ❤️

Share them with your sick loved ones, teach them to your family and most importantly USE THEM YOURSELF ❤️

When you are always late for salah (prayer), it says a lot about you and your character. It shows that you lack discipline, internal strength, and integrity to be where you are supposed to be ‘on time’ for your most important appointments of the day, and you are not dependable.

No one likes to say about themselves that they are not dependable or lack discipline, but actions speak louder than words, and being late for salah is the first warning that you are on a slippery slope towards being chronically late in everything else in your life.

Al-Hasan Al-Basri said: "When salah is the least of your concerns, then what is your most important concern? As much as you fix your salah, your life will be fixed. Did you not know that salah was equated with Success: ‘Come to Prayer, Come to Success.’ How can you ask Allah for success when you are not responding to His right upon you?”

If you are wondering why there is a delay in your sustenance, in your marriage, in your work, in your health, look into your salah: are you delaying it?

‘If we truly have faith in the unseen and have faith in the Messenger of Allah telling us that Allah wants us to meet Him 5 times every day in our salah, then we should take salah more seriously.’

“And enjoin prayer upon your family [and people] and be steadfast therein. We ask you not for provision; We provide for you, and the [best] outcome is for [those of] righteousness.” (Qur’an: Chapter 20, Verse 132)

May Allah make us punctual in our prayers and may He subhaanahu wa ta'ala grant us the tawfeeq to not delay or miss our 5 daily appointments with Allah. Aameen.

It's not about "New Year"
But about "Few Years" which we need to be worried about.
Don't get deceived.
The Day of Resurrection is near.

#KnowTheDifferenceBetweenTwo BaarakAllaahu Feekum !!

The blame game does not work on the Day of Judgment before Allah, everyone is responsible for their actions.

Allah says (translated): "If only you (Prophet) could see how the wrongdoers will be made to stand before their Lord, blaming each other. Those who were weak (the followers) will say to the arrogant (leaders), ‘If it wasn't for you, we would have been believers.’

In response, the arrogant (leaders) will say to the weak (followers), "Did we hold you back from the guidance, after it had come to you? In fact, you really were guilty yourselves."

The weak (followers) will say to the arrogant (leaders), "It was you who planned night and day, ordering us to disbelieve God, and consider other things equal to Him." They will hide their regret on seeing their punishment. And We shall chain the necks of the disbelievers. Can they be recompensed with other than what they deserved for their deeds?"
