The virtue of helping any muslim
RasoolAllah ﷺ said It is more beloved to me that I walk with my brother Muslim in his time of need than I stay secluded (perform aitkaf) in this masjid (Masjid e Nabwi) for a month.
Al-Slisila-As-Sahiha #209 -Part 2
RasoolAllah ﷺ said Whoever fulfilled the needs of his brother, Allah will fulfill his needs; whoever brought his (Muslim) brother out of a discomfort, Allah will bring him out of the discomforts of the Day of Resurrection, and whoever screened (hide mistakes) a Muslim, Allah will screen him on the Day of Resurrection .

It is extremely difficult to have faith while waiting. Delays are painful. But they certainly are blessings through and through, only if you change your perspective and you choose to view them as such.
❝Trials are beneficial to the Believers, because Allah corrects and improves them because of it!❞
- Shaykh Ibn Taymiyyah رحمه الله
[مجموع الفتاوى ٢٨/٥٠]
You can't learn gratitude without loss. You can't learn to appreciate abundance without lack. You can't learn how to love without disappointments. And you can't learn companionship without lonely nights.
Believe me, I know how difficult it can be to find hope when everything feels so very dark.
Pain ends.
Fear ends.
Anxiety ends.
In time, you will find your way again.
❝Endure the nights of hardship because if you look through the eye of patience, you shall see the dawn of reward. Indeed the lofty ranks can be attained only by undergoing hardship.❞
- Ibn al-Jawzi رحمه الله
[Al-Lata'if fil-Wa'iz]
As you lie in pain, waiting for your life to change, remember that Allah has a plan for you and it is good! Allah never disappoints His believing slaves.
And if you ever feel your trials are never ending....
Remember what Imam Ahmad told his son..
In this life of poverty, hardship and trials, Abdullah ibn Ahmad asked his father Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal one day, “Abi when will we ever relax?” His father, one of the greatest revivers of the Sunnah, a role model for all Muslims, looked him in the eye and said, “With the first step we take into Jannah.”
❝Had Allah lifted the veil for his slave and shown him how He handles his affairs for him, and how Allah is more keen for the benefit of the slave than his own self, his heart would have melted out of the love for Allah and would have been torn to pieces out of thankfulness to Allah. Therefore if the pains of this world tire you do not grieve. For it may be that Allah wishes to hear your voice by way of duaa. So pour out your desires in prostration and forget about it and know; that verily Allah does not forget it.❞

*The Will of Shaykh al-Albāni,*
May Allāh Bestow Mercy Upon Him and Grant Him the Highest Abode in Paradise For His Service to the Religion of Islām.*
I advise my loved ones; my wife, my children and my friends to supplicate to Allāh for His forgiveness and mercy when they receive the news of my passing.
Firstly, I request that they refrain from wailing loudly or crying excessively.
Secondly, I urge them to bury me as soon as possible without informing any of my relatives or friends except those necessary for the burial arrangements. I also request that my neighbour and sincere friend, ’Izzat Khidr Abu ‘Abd-Allāh, be responsible for washing my body with the help of anyone he chooses.
Thirdly, I would like to be buried in the closest graveyard available to avoid being transported in a car. I also request that the followers of the funeral procession do not ride in cars. Furthermore, I prefer an old graveyard to ensure that the graves will not be exhumed. Moreover, I ask those who reside in the same area where I pass away not to inform my children who live in other places until after my burial. This is to prevent them from being overwhelmed with emotions and to avoid any delay in the funeral.
I beseech Allāh, that I meet Him, while having my past and future sins forgiven.
I also bequeath my entire library of printed books, copies, and manunoscripts - that of my handwriting and the handwriting of others - to the library of the Islamic University of al-Madeenah, because it holds good memories for me - in inviting to the Book and the Sunnah and following the methodology of the pious predecessors and successors, during my teaching tenure.
My hope is that Allāh makes this resource a source of benefit for the leaders of the da'wah in that region, just as its previous owner had benefited the students there in the past. I pray that through their support and supplications, Allah will continue to guide me and enable me to serve others with sincerity.
“My Lord! Inspire me to ˹always˺ be thankful for Your favours which You blessed me and my parents with, and to do good deeds that please You. And instil righteousness in my offspring. I truly repent to You, and I truly submit ˹to Your Will˺.”
Surah al-Ahqāf, al-āyah 15

The Humour of The Sahābah: Throwing Melon Peels/Rinds At Each other
Bakr ibn ‘Abdullāh reported that the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ, used to throw melon [rinds] at each other [for fun], but if matters became serious, they would be real men.
Adāb al-Mufrad [no. 266]. Classed as Sahīh by Shaykh Al-Albānī in Sahīh Adāb al-Mufrad [no. 201].
Reflections:
- What is meant here is the rind/peel of melons and not the melon itself as understood by many.
- The Sahābah were men who would joke around at times without going into the extremes, but when it was time to be serious they would be more then anyone else.
- The companions would laugh amongst themselves whilst their faith was like mountains in strength.
- This is moderate, Islamically acceptable humour, which does not go beyond the bounds of truth or manhood of a person. Rather, it serves its purpose of refreshing hearts and minds.
- We learn balance from the life of the companions who are the best of generations to follow.
- To strengthen the bonds of brotherhood, light banter is sometimes needed.

Never hurt anyone. Because when you hurt, you're not just hurting them. You are instilling pain, fear, insecurities, self doubts, negative thoughts, traumas and many more. You can hurt someone in a second but its effect may last a lifetime.
You don't know how much work this person will have to do to pick up the pieces and pull himself back together, to learn to trust someone again, they may deal with it in a very long time.
Indeed not everyone has the same kind and loving heart, some hearts are vulnerable and some hearts are cold but both can still feel pain and that's why you have to be kind and be merciful to everyone. Don't be a reason for someone's tears in their sujood.

Then he recited this verse:
‘And those who, when they have committed Fâhishah (evil, indecencies, shameful deeds) or wronged their selves with evil, remember Allâh and ask forgiveness for their sins; — and none can forgive sins but Allâh — and do not persist in what (wrong) they have done, while they know’ [Âl-e-‘Imrân, 3:135].

The example of the person who recites the Qur'an
Narrated Abu Musa radi Allahu Anhu The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The example of a believer who recites the Qur'an and acts on it, like a citron which tastes nice and smells nice. And the example of a believer who does not recite the Qur'an but acts on it, is like a date which tastes good but has no smell. And the example of a hypocrite who recites the Qur'an is like a Raihana (sweet basil) which smells good but tastes bitter And the example of a hypocrite who does not recite the Qur'an is like a colocynth which tastes bitter and has abad smell."

Between prosperity and destruction
Ibn al-Qayyim, may Allah have mercy on him (d. 751 AH), said:
ابن القيم: فما خراب العالم إلا بالجهل، ولا عمارته إلا بالعلم، وإذا ظهر العلم في بلد أو محلة قل الشر في أهلها، وإذا خفى العلم هناك ظهر الشر والفساد. ومن لم يعرف هذا فهو ممن لم يجعل الله له نورا. قال الإمام أحمد: ولولا العلم كان الناس كالبهائم
"The destruction of this world is only a consequence of ignorance, and its prosperity is only possible through Islamic knowledge. If knowledge appears in a country or locality, evil decreases among its inhabitants, and if knowledge disappears (or is hidden), evil and injustice appear. And whoever does not know this is one of those to whom Allah has not given light. Imam Ahmad (d. 241 AH) said: 'If it were not for Islamic knowledge, people would be like animals.'"

Since a person is living in the moment. He should not be saddened for what has passed. Also he should not research into the future where that research would not be of any benefit.
It is upon you to be truthful, fulfill your contracts, keep to one's promises and justice in all dealings.
Fulfilling rights completely and perfectly with a tranquil soul and with truthful pure Eemaan.
Busy yourself with your own mistakes and your matters, rather than the mistakes of the people and their matters.
Deal with everyone according to their situation and condition, whether he is a senior, or youngster, male or female, a leader or a follower.
Be gentle and merciful to everyone even animals and livestock, since indeed Allaah is merciful to his merciful worshippers.
Be balanced in all your matters, and open up your mind to every religious and worldly benefit.❞

You Will Be Punished For Opposing The Sunnah
On the authority of Sa'eed b. Musayyib (d. 94H) rahimahullaah that he saw a man praying more than Rak'atain (two units of prayer) after the emergence of al-Fajr (i.e. time for Fajr prayer). He was making a lot of Rukoos (bowings) and prostrations in his prayer so he (Sa'eed b. Musayyib) forbade him from that. So he (the man) said: 'O Aboo Muhammad, will Allaah punish me for praying? He said: 'No, but He will punish you for opposing the Sunnah.'"
Al-Albaanee (d. 1419H) rahimahullaah said:
"This is from the wonderful replies of Sa'eed b. Musayyib (rahimahullaah ta'ala) and it is a strong weapon against the Mubtadi ah (innovators) who regard many of the innovations as good and commendable in the name that they are Dhikr (remembrance of Allaah) and Salaah (prayer). Then they rebuke the Ahlus-Sunnah for forbidding that upon them and accuse them of forbidding the Dhikr and Salaah! Whilst in reality, they are only forbidding them from their opposition to the Sunnah in the Dhikr, the prayer and the likes of that."
