Narrated Hakim bin Hizam (Radi-Allahu 'anhu):

The Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) said, "The buyer and the seller have the option to cancel or to confirm the deal, as long as they have not parted or till they part, and if they spoke the truth and told each other the defects of the things, then blessings would be in their deal, and if they hid something and told lies, the blessing of the deal would be lost."

The Power of Honesty: Building Trust and Authentic Connections

Honesty is a fundamental value that has been cherished by societies throughout history. It is a virtue that transcends cultural boundaries and is universally recognized as a cornerstone of personal integrity and healthy relationships.

In this post, we will delve into the significance of honesty, explore its benefits, and discuss how practicing honesty can lead to a more fulfilling and authentic life.

Abd-Allaah ibn Masood (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:

You must be truthful, for truthfulness leads to righteousness and righteousness leads to Paradise. A man will keep speaking the truth and striving to speak the truth until he will be recorded with Allaah as a siddeeq (speaker of the truth). Beware of telling lies, for lying leads to immorality and immorality leads to Hellfire. A man will keep telling lies and striving to tell lies until he is recorded with Allaah as a liar.
(Reported by Muslim, 4721)

🌺 The Essence of Honesty
Honesty is not merely about telling the truth; it encompasses a broader commitment to living a life that aligns with your core values and principles. It involves being truthful in your words, actions, and intentions, as well as being transparent and authentic in your interactions with others. At its core, honesty is about being genuine and trustworthy.

🌿The Benefits of Honesty
Building Trust: Trust is the foundation of any successful relationship, be it personal or professional. When you are consistently honest, people can rely on you. Trust is fragile and takes time to build, but it can be shattered in an instant through dishonesty.

🫂Strengthening Relationships: Honesty fosters deeper connections with others. When you are open and sincere, people feel more comfortable around you. This leads to stronger, more meaningful relationships with friends, family, and colleagues.

❤️‍🩹Conflict Resolution: Honesty is crucial in resolving conflicts. Honest communication allows parties to address issues openly, leading to more effective problem-solving and potentially strengthening the relationship in the process.

Self-Respect: Being honest with yourself is just as important as being honest with others. It means acknowledging your strengths and weaknesses, making responsible choices, and living in harmony with your values. This self-respect can boost your self-esteem and overall well-being.

🧠Reducing Stress: Lying or hiding the truth can be mentally and emotionally taxing. The fear of being discovered can lead to anxiety and stress. Being honest frees you from this burden and promotes mental clarity and peace.

Challenges in Practicing Honesty

While the benefits of honesty are clear, it's important to acknowledge that practicing honesty can be challenging. Society often rewards dishonesty or concealing one's true feelings, especially in situations where the truth might be uncomfortable or unpopular. Additionally, admitting mistakes or vulnerabilities can be difficult. However, these challenges should not deter you from striving for honesty.

Tips for Practicing

👀Honesty Self-Reflection: Take time to reflect on your values and personal ethics. Understand what honesty means to you and why it's important.

👂Open Communication: Foster a culture of open and honest communication in your relationships. Encourage others to be truthful with you as well.

📎Own Your Mistakes: When you make a mistake, admit it, and take responsibility. This not only demonstrates honesty but also shows maturity and accountability.

🌡️Consider the Consequences: Before speaking or acting, consider the potential consequences of your actions. Honesty may be uncomfortable in the short term, but it usually leads to better long-term outcomes.

💝Practice Empathy: Understand that honesty should be paired with empathy and compassion. Be sensitive to how your words may affect others and strive to communicate with kindness.

Conclusion
Honesty is a timeless value that plays a pivotal role in our personal growth and the quality of our relationships. It is a principle that, when embraced, can lead to trust, authenticity, and a more fulfilling life. While honesty may sometimes present challenges, the rewards of being truthful far outweigh any momentary discomfort.

Allaah says:
O you who believe! Be afraid of Allaah, and be with those who are true (in word and deeds). [al-Tawbah 9:119]

So, let us commit to living honestly, both with ourselves and with those around us, and watch as our lives are enriched by the power of honesty.

In Shaa Allah 🌹

AFTER YOUR FUNERAL
===================
One hour after your funeral, your family goes back to their homes and starts taking care of your relatives, food and beverages, meanwhile, your body melts in soil...
Two hours later, some people call and apologize for not being able to attend the funeral, meanwhile, some people in your house start talking about politics and sports...
Six hours later, only your immediate family remains and everyone else returns to their home and start planning their next day...
Twenty-four hours later, your internal organs start to dissolve, meanwhile, messages and calls from people who don't know that you are dead continue to arrive on your mobile phone...
Three days later, interviews are held with candidates to fill your vacant position at your workplace, at that time your body begins to swell...
A week or two later, your son and daughter return to their work and your body continues to rot...
A month later your children will meet with a lawyer for property sharing while your teeth and nails continue to fall out...
A year later someone says, "Wow is that all? It's like yesterday".
Ten years later, a friend sees and remembers you in an old photo, but today all that remains of your body are your bones...
It takes such a short time to completely forget your existence in this world! Now reconsider the events and people you are obsessed with today...
SubhanAllah Do you think it's worth it?
Wake up and be serious with your Deen!

YAA ALLAH! GRANT US A LIFE THAT DOESN'T REGRETS 🤲🏼

لَوۡ أَنزَلۡنَا هَٰذَا ٱلۡقُرۡءَانَ عَلَىٰ جَبَلٍ لَّرَأَيۡتَهُۥ خَٰشِعًا مُّتَصَدِّعًا مِّنۡ خَشۡيَةِ ٱللَّهِۚ وَتِلۡكَ ٱلۡأَمۡثَٰلُ نَضۡرِبُهَا لِلنَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمۡ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ

Had We sent down this Quran on a mountain, you would surely have seen it humbling itself and rending asunder by the fear of Allah. Such are the parables which We put forward to mankind that they may reflect.

English - Tafsir ibn kathir
Asserting the Greatness of the Qur'an

Allah the Exalted emphasizes the greatness of the Qur'an, its high status and of being worthy of making hearts humble and rent asunder upon hearing it, because of the true promises and sure threats that it contains,

لَوْ أَنزَلْنَا هَذَا الْقُرْانَ عَلَى جَبَلٍ لَّرَأَيْتَهُ خَاشِعًا مُّتَصَدِّعًا مِّنْ خَشْيَةِ اللَّهِ

Had We sent down this Qur'an on a mountain, you would surely have seen it humbling itself and rent asunder by the fear of Allah.

If this is the case with a mountain which is hard and huge, that if it was made able to comprehend and understand this Qur'an, will feel humble and crumble from fear of Allah the Exalted, then what about you -- O mankind Why do your hearts not feel softness and humbleness from the fear of Allah, even though you understand Allah's command and comprehend His Book

This is why Allah said,

وَتِلْكَ الاَْمْثَالُ نَضْرِبُهَا لِلنَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ



Such are the parables which We put forward to mankind that they may reflect.

There is a Hadith of the Mutawatir grade that states,

The Messenger of Allah had someone make him a Minbar. Before that, he used to stand next to a tree trunk in the Masjid to deliver speeches. So, when the Minbar was made and placed in the Masjid, the Prophet came to deliver a speech and passed the tree trunk, headed towards the Minbar, the tree trunk started weeping, just like an infant. The tree trunk missed hearing the remembrance of Allah and the revelation that were being recited next to it.

In one of the narrations for this Hadith, Al-Hasan Al-Basri said after narrating the Hadith,

"You - mankind -- are more worthy to miss the Messenger of Allah than the tree trunk!"

Likewise, this honorable Ayah asks that if the solid mountains feel humble and are rent asunder from the fear of Allah, if it heard Allah's Speech and comprehended it, what about you -- O mankind -- who heard the Qur'an and understood it Allah the Exalted said in another Ayah,

وَلَوْ أَنَّ قُرْانًا سُيِّرَتْ بِهِ الْجِبَالُ أَوْ قُطِّعَتْ بِهِ الاٌّرْضُ أَوْ كُلِّمَ بِهِ الْمَوْتَى

And if there had been a Qur'an with which mountains could be moved, or the earth could be cloven asunder, or the dead could be made to speak. (13:31)

We mentioned the meaning of this Ayah as stating that, if there were a Qur'an that has these qualities, it would be this Qur'an.

Allah the Exalted said in another Ayah,

وَإِنَّ مِنَ الْحِجَارَةِ لَمَا يَتَفَجَّرُ مِنْهُ الَانْهَـرُ وَإِنَّ مِنْهَا لَمَا يَشَّقَّقُ فَيَخْرُجُ مِنْهُ الْمَأءُ وَإِنَّ مِنْهَا لَمَا يَهْبِطُ مِنْ خَشْيَةِ اللَّهِ

And indeed, there are stones out of which rivers gush forth, and indeed, there are of them (stones) which split asunder so that water flows from them, and indeed, there are of them which fall down for fear of Allah. (2:74)
Glorifying Allah the Exalted by mentioning His Names and Attributes

Allah the Exalted said,

هُوَ اللَّهُ الَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ

عَالِمُ الْغَيْبِ وَالشَّهَادَةِ هُوَ الرَّحْمَنُ الرَّحِيمُ

Whenever you find yourself in a difficult situation, whether financial, emotional, physical, etc. always always turn to ALLAH ‎ﷻ first through Dua and worship, for he alone is capable of solving all your affairs in an instant, if he wills ﷻ.

Abdullah Ibn Massoud رضي الله عنه narrated that the Prophet ‎ﷺ said:

“Whoever falls into a troubled, difficult situation and seeks the help of the people, his difficult situation shall not end.

And whoever falls into a troubled difficult situation and seeks the help of ALLAH ‎ﷻ, Allah will send provisions to him, sooner or later.”

“The diseases of the heart, mind and soul are more difficult than those of the body because the utmost that diseases of the body can do is lead those suffering from them to death.

❝Life is like a bad woman. She will never be loyal to her husband and chasing her is no good.❞

“Ibn Sina (Avicenna), the famous Muslim scientist, put two lambs in separate cages. Lambs were the same age and the same weight, and fed with the same food. All conditions were equal. However, he put a wolf in the third cage. Only one lamb could see the wolf but not the other lamb.

Months later, the lamb who saw the wolf was cranky, restless, poorly developing, and losing weight. The lamb died whilst the other lamb remained healthy. Although the wolf did nothing to the lamb next to it, the fear and stress that lamb lived in killed it prematurely, while the other lamb that did not see the wolf, was peaceful and developed well with a healthy weight gain.

In this experiment lbn Sina demonstrated the importance of mental health. Do not trouble yourself with unnecessary worry and concerns. Learn to rely on Allah and take care of your mental health.

"And whoever is mindful of Allah, He always prepares a way out, and He provides for him from sources he never could imagine. And if anyone puts his trust in Allah, sufficient is Allah for him. For Allah will surely accomplish His purpose: verily, for all things has Allah appointed a due proportion."(Quran, 65: 2-3)

WHAT ENVY AND GREED DOES.

‘Abdullah Ibn ‘Umar (RadiyAllahu ‘anhu) said,

“While on the Ark, Nooh (‘alayhis-salam) noticed an old man whom he did not recognise. Nooh (‘Alayhis-salām) inquired, ‘What brought you here?’

He replied, ‘I came to strike the hearts of your followers, so their hearts become with me, while their bodies with you.’

Nooh (‘Alayhis-salām) responded, ‘Leave, O enemy of Allah.’

Iblis said, ‘There are five things that cause people to become destroyed (deviated). I will inform you of three and not of the other two’.

{Then it was revealed to Nooh (‘Alayhis-salām) that he needed not know the three, but that he should enquire about the two. (so he inquired about just two)}

Iblis said, ‘The two that are certain to work are:

ENVY:

I was cursed because of my envy, and became a stoned devil and the second is

GREED:

(To have more): The entire Paradise was made permissible to Adam (‘alayhis-salam). I got what I wanted from him because of his eagerness.’”

Between Hot and Cold:

🌟USING COLD WATER FOR DRINKING AND AS CURE🌟

As a cure to Ayyoob’s عليه السلام sickness, Allaah تعالى said to him:

❝{“Strike the ground with your foot: This is a spring of water to wash in, cool and a (refreshing) drink.”}❞
📚 [Surah al-Saad (38): 41]

💢💢💢

The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said:
❝Fever is from the (intense) heat of the Hell-Fire, so cool it with water.❞
📚 [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (3261, 3262, 3263, 3264, 5723, 5724, 5725, 5726) and Saheeh Muslim (5476, 5477, 5478, 5479, 5480, 5482, 5484, 5485)]

💥 [As Ibn al-Qayyim said, this is particularly for the fever which is caused due to sunstroke]

🌴🌴🌴

🌟PREFERABLE NOT TO EAT WHILE THE FOOD IS INTENSELY HOT🌟

It has been authentically reported from Abu Hurairah رضي الله عنه that he said: ❝One should not eat the food until its steam goes away.❞
📚 [Sunan al-Baihaqee and graded as “Saheeh” by Shaikh al-Albaanee in al-Saheehah (1/748)]

💢💢💢

Whenever Asmaa’ bint Abu Bakr رضي الله عنها prepared food, she used to cover it with something till its boil went away (and it had cooled down a bit), and she used to say: I heard the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم saying: ❝It is for greater blessing.❞
📚 [Saheeh Ibn Hibaan and Mustadrak of al-Haakim and graded as “Saheeh” by Shaikh al-Albaanee in al-Saheehah (392, 659)]

💥[One can eat hot food after the steam has stopped coming out]

🌴🌴🌴

🌟PREFERABLE TO DELAY THE DHUHR SALAAH WHEN IT IS INTENSELY HOT🌟

The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said:
❝Refrain from praying (Dhuhr - the noon prayer) till the extreme heat passes away, for the Intensity of heat is from the exhalation of Hell.❞
📚 [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (533, 535, 536, 538, 539, 629, 3258, 3259) and Saheeh Muslim (1282, 1284, 1285, 1287, 1288, 1289, 1290, 1291)]

💥[This will be applied only when a person is praying outside where there is no shade and making Sujood on the ground becomes difficult. But our Masaajid now are fully ventilated and have rugs/carpets which protect us from the heat.]

PENS HAD BEEN LIFTED AND INK HAD DRIED.

Riyad as-Salihin 62.Ibn Abbas (radiAllahuanhuma) said:

One day, I was riding behind the Prophet (ﷺ) when he said, "O boy! I will instruct you in some matters. Be watchful of Allah (Commandments of Allah), He will preserve you. Safeguard His Rights, He will be ever with you. If you beg, beg of Him Alone; and if you need assistance, supplicate to Allah Alone for help. And remember that if all the people gather to benefit you, they will not be able to benefit you except that which Allah had foreordained (for you); and if all of them gather to do harm to you, they will not be able to afflict you with anything other than that which Allah had pre-destined against you.

"Pens had been lifted and ink had dried"

[At- Tirmidhi, who categorized it as Hadith Hasan Sahih].

الثالث‏:‏ عن ابن عباس، رضي الله عنهما، قال‏:‏ ‏"‏ كنت خلف النبي، صلى الله عليه وسلم، يوماً فقال‏:‏ ‏"‏ يا غلام إني أعلمك كلمات‏:‏ ‏"‏احفظ الله يحفظك، احفظ الله تجده تجاهك، إذا سألت فاسأل الله ، وإذا استعنت فاستعن بالله، واعلم‏:‏ أن الأمة لو اجتمعت على أن ينفعوك بشيء، لم ينفعوك إلا بشيء قد كتبه الله لك، وإن اجتمعوا على أن يضروك بشيء، لم يضروك بشيء إلا بشيء قد كتبه الله عليك؛
