❒ Those who are still irregular in Fajr read carefully what they are losing:
10 virtues of Fajr prayer
1. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "There is no more difficult prayer for the hypocrites than Fajr and Isha prayers. If they knew the virtue of these two prayers, they would have attended even if they crawled. Rasulullah (ﷺ) said, "I wanted to ask the muezzin to lead the iqamat and someone to lead the people, and I myself would take a fire torch and then set fire to those who did not come to the prayer." (Sahih Bukhari, 657)
2.The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Whoever performs the Fajr prayer, that person goes under the responsibility of Allah on that day. That means Allah Taala himself takes responsibility for that person."
(Sahih Muslim, Tirmidhi – 2184)
3.The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Whoever performs the Fajr prayer, the angels of Allah will witness that person to Allah as a good person."
(Bukhari-Muslim)
4. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Whoever prays the Fajr Salat in congregation, Allah Taala will reward him for performing Nafl prayers all night!
(Sahih Muslim-1096)
5. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Whoever enters the mosque on foot early in the morning to offer the Fajr prayer, Allah Ta'ala will grant him full light on the Day of Resurrection."
(Abu Dawud 494)
6. Whoever prays Fajr, Allah will give him the greatest blessings of Paradise

Pillars of mosque means people who visit mosque often ❤️

In the company of friends and on social media everyone pretends to be righteous. The real test is when they are alone. It is the actions/deeds that are done in secret that tells a person’s true nature.
🎓Samurah Ibn Jundub رضي الله عنه said:
❝Whoever likes to know what the status of Shaitaan with him is then let him look at the deeds he does when he is alone.❞

A flower's wish is for water to come from the sky, but Allah sends it water from under it.
A tree's wish is to grow taller, but Allah grows its roots deeper.
A person's wish is to be loved back by someone and Allah sends another person with a heart filled with love.
The flower didn't know that the rain would be toxic, the tree didn't know that it needed strong roots to handle the storm and the person didn't know that the one he loved was bad for him.
Sometimes Allah protects you from the things you desire in unexpected ways. Trust in Allahs plan.

Whenever the topic of Bid
When we talk about Bid
And the evidence for this is the saying of the Prophet ﷺ: ❝whosoever does an action which we have not commanded then it will be rejected.❞
And also: ❝whosoever introduces into this religion of ours that which is not part of it then it must be rejected.❞
And there are many more Ahaadeeth.
The Second Principle:
And in the matters of customs (food, clothing etc.), everything is allowed unless prohibited in the Qur’aan and Sunnah.
And the evidence for this is the saying of Allaah تعالى :
{Say: "Who has forbidden the adornment of Allaah which He has produced for His servants and the good [lawful] things of provision?"} [Surah al-A`raaf]
And Allaah is the One who Grants success.
ah comes up, to counter the argument many come up with questions like:
"Did the Prophet ﷺ travel in a ship?
Did the Salaf travel in cars and planes?
Prove from the Sunnah that it is permissible to eat fried chicken?"
One has to understand that vehicles, planes and ships are used only as a means to reach the destination, they are not part of Ibaadah in themselves.When we talk about Bid
ah, we are referring to innovations in the Deen only. We are not referring to innovations in Science and Technology.
Anyways, to get to the point, by the Will of Allaah, if the people would commit to memory these two principles, they would protect their Deen and save themselves from doubts and confusion.
The First Principle:
In the matters of Ibaadah (Worship), everything is Haraam/not allowed unless proven from the Qur’aan and Sunnah.And the evidence for this is the saying of the Prophet ﷺ: ❝whosoever does an action which we have not commanded then it will be rejected.❞
And also: ❝whosoever introduces into this religion of ours that which is not part of it then it must be rejected.❞
And there are many more Ahaadeeth.

It is from enmity and hopelessness of the devil that his endeavour to misguide mankind from the Path of Allah will persist. This misguidance takes many shades and forms; be it from planting seeds of doubt, or giving rise to deviant ideas antithetical to the sacred teachings of Islam, and essentially becoming entangled within regressive intellectual and rhetorical discourses. The Ummah has suffered varying levels of deviation, some of which remain prevalent today, while more continue to be uncovered - and such is the impact of delusive plottings of the devil and his allies.
This book is the sixth instalment from Dar as-Sunnah of the illustrious Imam, Abu'l-Faraj Ibn Jawzi. Being a complete translation of his well-known and prized work, Ibn Jawzi enumerates within it, many of the mechanisms and modus operandi used by the devil in deceiving and leading mankind away from the Straight Path. It is of particular value and importance because only by unearthing and accentuating some of the traps of the devil, can mankind avoid them as well as navigate others away from falling prey to his harm.
Speaking about the devil and his plotting, the author wrote that, "he was only able to do so while creeping during the night of ignorance. Had the dawn of knowledge shone on him, he would have been exposed. Thus I decided to warn from his plots... for identifying evil is a form of warning from it."
This translation of Tablees Iblees will provide important analysis in developing self-awareness and critical thinking to ward off many deceptions of the devil, which have plagued mankind from the time of Adam. For such reasons alone, this work is a valuable addition to the scholarly discourse it presents to the English speaking world.

We live in a time when knowledge is bursting forth yet there is unbelievable amount of chaos and we stopped honoring fellow muslims. Everyone is refuting one another. We are attacking each other without giving time & without personally consulting them. Each one of us is a cult in itself. Imagine what Ibn Umar (ra) said centuries ago and how *extremely* it applies on today. A man wrote to ibn ‘Umar ra and said, “write to me about knowledge”, so he (ibn ‘Umar) wrote back (saying), من أقوال عبد الله بن عمر في الحثّ على حفظ حقوق الناس عندما بعث إليه رجل أن يكتب له علمه كلّه بقرطاس، فردّ عليه ابن عمر بقول:(إِنّ العلم كثير ولكن إن استطعت أن تلقى الله خَفيف الظّهر من دماء الناس خميص البطن من أموالهم كافّ اللسان عن أعراضهم لازماً لأَمر جماعتهم فافعل “Verily knowledge is ABUNDANT ; however, if you are able to meet Allaah with a lightened back with regard to the muslim's blood, an empty stomach from their wealth, refraining the tongue from their honor, and clinging to their jamā’ah (the people of truth) ,then do (that)" Tareekh Dimashq (31/170)/Siyar ‘Alámun Nubala (3/222) If knowledge was abundant at that time, what about today? Is it not gushing forth? But we are in the worst of states. Try to ping any one of the muslim brothers (online/offline) you aren't in good terms try to ask about his wellbeing and make mends. Try to do it once for Allah's sake. As our beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ asked us to do when he said : كونوا عباد الله إخوانا Do not envy each other, be the slaves of Allah as brothers. Nothing can stop us from our misdeeds except acting upon what we already know. The right of a muslim is not a small thing to take lightly. I, Ahmed, appologize to anyone and everyone of you out there and to anyone who of you I ever hurt. Please forgive me..

The ummah is not in a mess because we don't have people of knowledge (scholars). The ummah is in a mess because these scholars are neglected. Meanwhile, the masses are attracted to social media personalities who lack proper education and understanding of the deen.
Many people on social media are creating [Islamic] content to gain views and for popularity. They will dive head first into controversial issues and have problematic takes because negativity and shock value content generates views and engagement. Stick to the scholars.
The scholars are known, and scholars generally have a tazkiyah showing whom they have taken knowledge from.

If Allāh has made something very obvious to you and you have clearly seen the signs, trust His process. Stop forcing things. Stop creating a little frustrating, disturbing, peace snatching process of your own. Stop being impatient, pushy and forceful. Don’t disturb your heart.
Stop relying so much on your own understanding. Trust Allāh’s process. Trust Allāh’s timing. Do the work required of you, gracefully. On your journey in this difficult phase, seek assistance through patience and prayer.
Allāh does not want you to be stressed. Allāh wants you to peacefully do the internal work for the external bounty you seek to arrive.
Patiently let the reality unfold which is planned in the Lord’s process. Stop disturbing your heart and wanting everything now. Be patient. Allāh has an incredible plan for your life. Do the work of now, peacefully. And know that when Allāh wants something to happen, nothing and no one can get in its way.

⛔️JUST STOP!⛔️
⛔️ stop running after people
They will only give what they want.
Stop begging people to keep their promises,
If they can't be faithful to Allah, they will never be faithful to you.
⛔️Stop trying to hold them accountable for the commitments they made.
If they wanted to, they would.
Instead they will make you feel unbalanced, unhinged and call you crazy for reminding them of their own words.
⛔️ Stop waiting for people to put you first just because you did for them.
They could look at your carved out heart, the most precious and vulnerable part of you, they will say all the things they think you want to hear so you believe it's safe with them.
Once the novelty wears off, they will simply discard it like unwanted garbage.
This is not a reflection on you.
No, what they do is a reflection of them,
How you respond is a reflection of you.
Don't let people with no integrity drag you down to their level.
You can't buy character, so don't stain yours.
People are who they are, NOT who they say they will be.
Step back, let people do want they want, how else will you know what they would rather do.
Observe, no matter how painful it may be...
People always shows us who the really are, and what they would rather be doing.
Stop colouring that picture with who you would like them to be.
JUST STOP! ⛔️
let the pieces fall, let the pieces lay where they fall.
Remove evey idea you had of what it could have been.
Potential isnt real until its reached.
No one is paid for he could have done!
JUST STOP! ⛔️
Wasting your precious life on people who simply dont care.
Who's hearts have already turned and moved on.
We may wish things were different.
But it is what it is.
It hurts to be the one left behind,
But know you are never left Alone.
FLEE
To The One who's been there all along.
Watching and waiting for your return.
Turn to Him in this life.
Hand your pain and sorrows over.
Only He has the ability to soothe the shattered heart and lacerated soul.
He answered the call of Yacoob (AS)
He answered thr call of Musa (AS)
He answered the call of ayoob (AS)
He answered the call of Ibrahim (AS)
He has Promised that He will surely answer you when you call to Him.
After everyone has let you down, you will realize it is only Allah who NEVER breaks His promise.
