When a camel complained about its owner to the prophet(PBUH)

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) entered an orchid belonging to an Ansari and saw there a camel. When it saw him, it began to groan and its eyes shed tears. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) approached it and patted it on the hump and the base of its head until it quieted down. Then he (ﷺ) asked, "Who is the owner of this camel? To whom does it belong?" An Ansari youth stepped forward and said: "It is mine O Messenger of Allah!" He said, "Do you not fear Allah in respect of this beast which Allah has placed in your possession? This camel is complaining to me that you starve it and put it to toil."

Allah swears by the 10 days of Dhul hijjah

To guide us in our lives, Allah’s word must be in our hearts and embodied in our actions. That's a sign of heart that's alive.

A soft heart is one that has not fallen into despair and whose intimate relationship with Allah Most High and His Messenger (Allah bless him and give him peace) is safeguarded.

The Quran was sent to revive our hearts and give life to our souls.

The Prophet Saws life and his words also revive our hearts.

This world, dunya in Arabic, is the lowest form of life because it is temporary, compared to the hereafter, which is everlasting. The scholars have mentioned that life in this world is a fleeting moment, like an hour of time. We must strive to make it an hour of obedience and worship to Allah.

The Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) narrated, “ I swear by Allah this world compared to the Hereafter is like if one of you dipped his finger into the sea; let him see how much water he comes back with.” (Muslim)

In these blessed nights, revive your heart, turn to Allah, and seek forgiveness and lighten your load.

May Allah allow all of us to leave this month, forgiven.

When some say...

" Islam is not about Hijab,Hajj,Wudu,Beards,Who prays or doesn't pray and etc. Islam is in the heart."

🔴"Ahl as-Sunnah agreed that faith is words and deeds, or verbal affirmation, belief in the heart and physical actions.

Ash-Shafa‘i (may Allah have mercy on him)
said: The consensus of the Sahabah and Tabi‘in, those who came after them and those whom we met, was:

🔴Faith is words, deeds and intentions, and one of the three is not sufficient without the others.

End quote from Usul I‘tiqad Ahl as-Sunnah by al-Lalka’i (5/956, no. 1593); Majmu‘ al-Fatawa by Ibn Taymiyah (7/209).

🔴Al-Bukhari (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I narrated from a thousand of the scholars and more, but I only narrated from those who said that faith is words and deeds. I did not narrate from those who said that faith is words [only]."(Usul I‘tiqad Ahl as-Sunnah by al-Lalka’i 5/959, no. 1597).

🔴Abu ‘Ubayd al-Qasim ibn Salaam (may Allah have mercy on him) said: These are the names of those who said that faith is words and deeds, and it may increase and decrease. He named one hundred and thirty-three scholars, then he said: All of them say that faith is words and deeds, it may increase and decrease. This is the view of Ahl as-Sunnah and it is also our view. And Allah is the source of strength. Quoted by Ibn Battah in al-Ibanah (2/814, no. 1117); Shaykh al-Islam in Majmu‘ al-Fatawa (7/309).

Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: More than one narrated that Ahl as-Sunnah wa’l-Hadith are unanimously agreed that faith is words and deeds."(Majmu‘ al-Fatawa 7/330).

It was narrated from Anas ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “There are three characteristics, whoever attains them has found the sweetness of faith: when Allah and His Messenger are dearer to him than all else, when he loves a man and does not love him except for the sake of Allah, and when he would hate to return to disbelief as he would hate to be thrown into the fire.” Narrated by al-Bukhari (16) and Muslim (43).

🔴The believers are ONLY those who, when Allah is mentioned, their 🖤hearts become fearful, and when His verses are recited to them, it increases them in faith; and upon their Lord they rely,

🔴The ones who establish prayer, and from what We have provided them, they spend
Those are the believers, truly. For them are degrees [of high position] with their Lord and forgiveness and noble provision} [al-Anfal 8:2-4].

Establishing prayer and giving zakah are physical actions, and here they are regarded as part of faith.
And Allah, may He be exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):
{And never would Allah have caused you to lose your faith} [al-Baqarah 2:143].

The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “Faith has seventy-odd – or sixty-odd – branches, the best of which is saying La ilaha illa Allah, and the least of which is removing something harmful from the road, and modesty is a branch of faith.” Narrated by al-Bukhari (9) and Muslim (35).

Physical actions, such as purification, prayer, fasting, Hajj, jihad and so on.

The evidence that physical actions are part of faith include the verses in which Allah, may He be exhorted, says (interpretation of the meaning):
{And they were not commanded except to worship Allah, [being] sincere to Him in religion, inclining to truth, and to establish prayer and to give zakah. And that is the correct religion} [al-Bayyinah 98:5]

{The believers are only the ones who have believed in Allah and His Messenger and then doubt not but strive with their properties and their lives in the cause of Allah. It is those who are the truthful} [al-Hujurat 49:15]."

Ibn al-Qayyim (Allaah ﷻ have mercy upon him) said,
"The recitation of one verse, with reflection & understanding, is better than khatm without contemplation & understanding "
Miftah Dar Al-Sa'adah 187/1

ANSWERS COME WHEN THE TIME COMES

If Shaytān ever whispers to your heart saying, 'How long have you been supplicating but you still see no answer?'

Let your answer be, 'I worship Him with my supplications, while I am confident and certain that my supplications shall be answered. Yet, maybe the answer is postponed to bring forth a goodness that is for my interest for answers come when the time comes. And even if no answer is noted, it suffices the humility and worship I am in.'

Returning to the family after finishing from a trip or need

Abu Hurairah (r) reported:
The Messenger of Allah ( صلى الله عليه وسلم) said, "Travelling has a portion of torment because it deprives a traveler of his food, drink, and sleep. So when one of you has accomplished his purpose of journey, let him return home quickly." [Muslim 1344]

Ibn Mas’ūd رضي الله عنه said:

“When you hear Allāh saying, ‘O you who believe,’ give it your full attention because it is either some good you are being commanded with, or some evil you are being prohibited from.”

(collected by ibn Abī Hātim in his tafsīr (1/196)

Those who intend to make a *sacrifice*, their last day to trim hair and nails is *19th June in India* and *18th June in Saudi Arabia*.

Kindly remind others as well. May Allah accept our worship and sacrifice. Ameen ya Rabb.

The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said, "Whoever sights the crescent of Dhul-Hijjah and intends to offer a sacrifice, let him refrain from cutting his hair and nails until he has offered his sacrifice."

*Sunan an-Nasa'i, 4361*
*Book 43, Hadith 1*

If you add table spoon of vinegar at the beginning of your meal you would reduce your blood sugar spike by 30%.

📚 Jabir ibn Abdullah reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, took hold of my hand one day and led me to his residence. Some pieces of bread were given to him and the Prophet said, “Are there any condiments?” They said, “None but some vinegar.” The Prophet said, “Verily, vinegar is an excellent condiment.” Jabir said, “I have always loved vinegar ever since I heard this from the Prophet.” Talha said, “I have always loved vinegar ever since I heard this from Jabir.”
[Sahih Muslim]

📚 Aisha reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “The best of condiments or toppings is vinegar.”
[Sahih Muslim]

Pickled onion or veggies one of the best ways to consume it.

Narrated 'Aishah رضي الله عنه: "The Prophet ﷺ would not sleep until he recited Surat Al-'Isrā' and Surat Az-Zumar."

‎● {جامع الترمذي ٤٥:٣١٧٠}

Narrated 'Irbad bin Sariyah رضي الله عنه: "Prophet ﷺ would recite the Musabbihat (Surat Al-'Isrā', Surat Al-Ĥadīd, Surat Al-Ĥashr, 61-64 & 87) before sleep and say "Indeed there is an Ayah in them That is better than one thousand Ayat."

● {جامع الترمذي ٤٥:٣١٧١}

The Prophet (ﷺ) said,

" The most beloved deed to Allah is to make a Muslim happy, or to remove one of his troubles, or to forgive his debt, or to feed his hunger."

al-Muʻjam al-Awsaṭ 6/139 - Sahih according to Al-Albani

In this age of entrepreneurs and hyper rich people, the best advice I can give to our youth regarding rizq is that it is more dependent on Allah’s will then your own hardwork. This is not to deny hardwork’s role. But how many a people do same hard work or even more than a person who became a millionaire or billionaire, yet they never reach that figure. Yet those who have reached that figure will tell you that to be honest it was mostly luck and fluke and that perhaps they did not do that much hardwork as others have.

So keep revising these lessons:
1- Allah expands rizq for whomever He wants and constricts for whomever He wants.

2- Taqwa (God consciousness) and tawakkul (trust in Allah) are key to rizq. Hardwork comes later.

3- The above may make you ask, why then we have hyper rich men who are non Muslims and don’t have taqwa or tawakkul. The answer to this is, rizq is not just financial wealth. Rizq is social wealth (loyal people attached to you who love you for Allah’s sake), time wealth (barakah in time and getting time to do good deeds), Emotional wealth (contentment, composure, tranquility). If you are simply looking for money, then follow their rules. But if you are looking for the holistic concept of rizq then follow Islamic rules.

Imaam Maalik Ibn Anas (d.179H) – May Allah haver Mercy on him – said,

"Whosoever introduces into Islaam an innovation, and holds it to be something good, has indeed alleged that Muhammad (sallalahu ‘alayhe wa sallam) had betrayed the message"

Read the saying of Allaah – the Most Blessed, the Most High.

الْيَوْمَ أَكْمَلْتُ لَكُمْ دِينَكُمْ وَأَتْمَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ نِعْمَتِي وَرَضِيتُ لَكُمُ الإِسْلاَمَ دِينًا

This day, I have perfected your religion for you, completed My Favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islâm as your religion. (Al-Ma’idah 5:3)

So that which was not part of the Religion at that time, cannot be part of the Religion today. And the last part of this Ummah cannot be rectified, except by that which rectified its first part.”

[Related by al-Qaadhee ‘Iyaadh in ash-Shifaa’ (2/676)]

WISDOM AND A WARNING.

Imam Shāfiʿī رحمه الله said,

“A man once asked Ubay b. Kaʿb رضي الله عنه, ‘Exhort me with something I can benefit by and by which I will be rewarded.’

He replied, ‘Be brotherly with brothers according to how righteous they are, do not expend your speech on those who are not interested in it, do not seek anyone to meet your need who does not care if he does not fulfil it, and do not envy the living except for something you would envy the dead.’”

[Al-Ājurrī, Juz fīhi Ḥikāyāt ʿan Al-Shāfiʿī article 24]

► PROPHET MUHAMMAD (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said:
When the first ten days (of Zul Hijjah) begin, if he has a sacrificial animal that he wants to offer as a sacrifice, let him not remove anything from his hair or trim his nails.

جب تم ذوالحجہ کا چاند دیکھو اور تم میں سے کوئی شخص قربانی کاا رادہ رکھتا ہو، وہ اپنے بالوں اور ناخنوں کو (نہ کاٹے) اپنے حال پر رہنے دے

مَنْ كَانَ لَهُ ذِبْحٌ يَذْبَحُهُ فَإِذَا أُهِلَّ هِلاَلُ ذِي الْحِجَّةِ فَلاَ يَأْخُذَنَّ مِنْ شَعْرِهِ وَلاَ مِنْ أَظْفَارِهِ شَيْئًا حَتَّى يُضَحِّيَ

(SAHIH MUSLIM Hadith #5118)

The best days in the world are the ten days of Zul Hijjah.

دنیا کے بہترین دن ذوالحجہ کے دس دن ہیں

أفضلُ أيامِ الدنيا أيامُ العشْرِ

(SAHIH AL JAAMI Hadith 1133)

✨ و هذا ذكرًا للمتقين ✨

You only end up destroying yourself trying to be malicious, revengeful, spiteful and petty!

It’s immature and shows the lack of trust you have in your Lord when you feel you have to be petty or spiteful! Is Allāh not Al- ‘Adl (The Just)? Trust in Allāh and know that He سبحانه وتعالى will make sure your due rights are given to you…

Don’t go from being the oppressed to becoming the oppressor!

Zil Hajjah..

Al Hamdulillah the most venerated days have come. May Allah bless all of us good health and make us do all the good deeds which will enable us to succeed this duniya and a place in Jannah in Aakhirah. Ameen
