FOUR SONS OF NUH (‘alayhis-salām)
Shaykh Sālih Āl Shaykh said:
Shem (Sām) the son of Nūh is the father of the Arabs, Romans (Byzantines), and Persians. For this reason all three of them are called Semitic people and their languages are known as Semitic languages. They lived in a portion of North African and most of Asia.
Ham (Hām) the son of Nūh is the father of Sudan, meaning the black race in Africa and other places.
Japheth (Yāfith) the son of Nūh is the father of the Turks, Slavic, and Chinese. The Turks are the Russians, not those who are from Turkey, even if they are called Turks because the origin of the Ottomans is Russia. End of Shaykh’s words
Ibn Kathīr (rahimahullah) said concerning the verse: So it (the ship) sailed with them amidst the waves like mountains, and Nūh called out to his son, who had separated himself (apart), "O my son! Embark with us and be not with the disbelievers." (Sūrah Hūd 11:42)
His statement: “Nūh called out to his son” this was his fourth son. His name was Canān (Can'ān also said as Yām) and he was a disbeliever. His father called out to him to believe and board the ship with them, so he would not drown with the disbelievers.

How long can you stay away from your mobile?(phone or laptop)
I watched a program on mobile addiction (TVC news station)and almost everyone interviewed said they can't stay away from their phone for 1hr.some said that they would feel so lonely and .....
When you replace physical connection with a virtual one,the mind gets messed up that you end up feeling lonely and depressed.
Too much of everything is bad and same goes for being addicted to your mobile.You will be loosing out on the most important part of your life(personal development).
Most if us Muslims no longer use our Qur'an because yes everyone now has a Qur'an App. We are slowly getting farther away from our azkar because we have a message,to reply online,there is a content we need to post.Mobile addiction is becoming a major problem in homes today to the point that the Husbands no longer notice the wives and the mothers no longer pay attention to their kids.
How are we raising the next Generation?
I had a chat with a pregnant womanand upon advising her to be steadfast in reciting some portions of the Qur'an,she said"I don't even know what is wrong with me,I feel lazy to read the Qur'an even tho it's on my phone but I am always on Facebook"
A couple were laying beside each other in their bedroom one afternoon and suddenly the wife stopped moving or breathing.She remained motionless for almost 10minutes before finally breaking the silence.
"Shebi if I had died since you wouldn't have noticed?I played dead and you didn't even notice"
Except we curb our addiction, Mobile addict poses a greater danger to our Mental health,our homes and personal growth.
May Allah guide us

KHUSHOO in salah?
#SignsOfTheHour
The Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said:
عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ أَوَّلُ مَا يُرْفَعُ مِنْ هَذِهِ الأُمَّةِ الْخُشُوعُ حَتَّى لا يُرَى فِيهِ خَاشِعًا
“The very first thing to be raised from this Ummah is Khushoo (awe, fear of Allaah) until there is not a single person in it with khushoo.”
[Saheeh al-Jaami` (2569) graded as by Shaikh al-Albaanee]
“Khushoo’ in prayer happens when a person empties his heart for it (prayer),& focuses on it to the exlusion of all else, and prefers it to everything else. Only then does he find comfort & joy in it, as the Prophet (sw) said: ‘…& my joy has been made in salaah.’” ( Ahmad, 3/128 Saheeh al-Jaami’, 3124).
Allaah has mentioned al-khaashi’eena wa’l-khaashi’aat(men&women who r humble (b4 their Lord)),& described this quality as 1 of the qualities of those who are chosen. He tells us that He has prepared for them forgiveness&reat reward(i.e., Paradise)[See al-Ahzaab 33:35].

A man said to Abu Hāzim (may Allah have mercy upon him):
Indeed you are strict.
Abu Hāzim (may Allāh have mercy upon him) replied:
Why shouldn’t I be strict when I’m certainly being observed/watched by 14 enemies.
As for four of them: A Shaytān (devil) who puts me to trial, a believer who envies me, a disbeliever (who wants to) kill me and a hypocrite who hates me.
As for the (remaining) ten, from them are: The matter of hunger, thirst, heat, cold, nakedness, old age, sickness, poverty, death and the hell-fire.
I don’t have the ability (to combat them all) except with a complete weapon.
And I do not find a weapon to combat them with better than (the weapon of) at-Taqwā (having fear of Allah).

Your relationship with Allaah really depends on how good your relationship is with your relatives:
The Messenger of Allaah ﷺ said:
❝The word "Al-Rahm" (the womb) derives its name from al-Rahmaan (i.e. Allaah) and is suspended from al-`Arsh (the Throne) and it says: 'He who keeps good relations with me, Allaah will keep connection with him, but whosoever severs relations with me, Allaah will sever connection with him'.❞

The Messenger of Allaah ﷺ said:
❝Allaah عز وجل said: "I am Al-Rahmaan and I have created al-Rahm (the womb, i.e. the ties of kinship) and I have derived its name from My Name. If anyone maintains ties of kinship, I maintain connection with him, and I shall cut off anyone who cuts them off."❞

If you have overburdened your heart with the grief and sorrows of this worldly life, neglecting prayers, which are the heart's provision and power, you would be like the traveller who overloaded his riding animal, while depriving it of its food, so it would not be able to continue on its journey.”

THE DANGERS OF MUSIC
Be it for your reels, videos, my days, AVOID IT.
Qur'an won't enter the heart and ears of someone who don't find music uncomfortable.
"And beware of music* for music grows fitnah in the heart and gives birth to evil thoughts (and temptations) in the soul."
* (singing, songs, musical instruments)
[Imam Abu Waleed al-Baajiy (rahimahullāh) in Naseeha al-Waladiyyah (Advice from a Parent), pg. 33]

*ULTIMATE QUOTES ON HIJAB WITH MAKEUP*
🌍_Hijab isn't a fashion statement. It's a life statement._🌎
📌SISTER IF YOU WANT TO, TRY LOOK "SEXY" ON, 📲SOCIAL MEDIA 📱/, 🌍WORLD 🌎, IT'S BETWEEN YOU AND ALLAH, BUT DON'T DO IT IN HIJAB THE UNIFORM FROM ALLAH.THERE WAS NEVER AS "SEXY HIJAB" IN THE PAST, THERE IS NOT A "SEXY HIJAB" NOW, AND THERE WILL NEVER BE A "SEXY HIJAB" IN THE FUTURE.
📌BODY LANGUAGE OF A SISTER WHO WEARS HIJAB + MAKE UP = "MEN PLEASE DON'T LOOK AT ME, MEN PLEASE LOOK AT ME,"
📌HIJAB = TRYING TO BE MODEST,
MAKE UP = TRYING TO BE ATTRACTIVE, HIJAB + MAKE UP = CONTRADICTION
📌"Hijab Creates Respect While Ur Skintight Influences Lust"
📌“Dear non Hijabi sister, the Lord who ordered you to fast is the same Lord who
ordered you to wear Hijab.”
Step by step in shaa Allaah
📌Sister: Having a clean heart is important not a Hijab. Me: Yes, but only by following the teachings of Islam we can clean our hearts.
📌Wearing 5 Layers Of Makeup Should Be Considered as a Niqaab. Because Nobody Knows How You Really Are.😎
Yoo Girls Keep It Up.
📌HIJABIS WITH LIPSTICK & MAKE UP DON'T LOOK SHY & PIOUS, THEY LOOK LIKE THEY WANT MALE ATTENTION!
📌Don't beauty your daughter with make up but with the hijab.
📌Hijabs that attract male's attention are not hijab at all!
📌Famous Excuse of girls who refuse to wear Hijaab, "islam is not shown in a piece of cloth, I have islam in my heart so dont judge me".Sister. If Islam is in your Heart, then Hijaab and Sunnah comes naturally.
📜Wearing Hijab is only a portion of being a good Muslimah. It doesn't mean you wear it you have attained the highest level of imaan.
It is only a portion. There are other things to consider. Taqwa and Akhlaq. May Allaah subhanahu wa ta'ala help us attain the highest level of imaan.

There Is Nothing More Beneficial To The Heart
Al-Imaam Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah, may Allaah have mercy upon him:
“There is nothing more beneficial to the heart than reciting the Quraan, with contemplation and reflection. The Quraan bequeathes love, aspiration, fear, hope, repentance, reliance, pleasure, contentment, authority, gratitude, patience, and all the other [necessary] conditions that are life [i.e.vital] to the heart and perfection of it. Likewise, it repels all reprehensible characteristics and actions which cause corruption and destroy the heart.”

AVOID HATEFUL PEOPLE
If you see a hateful person who bears grudges, one who does not forget slight faults and always attempts to get revenge (directly or indirectly, by word or deed) for mistakes, then consider them like camels.
The Arabs say, ‘So and so is more hateful than a camel!’
Just as you would stay away from a hateful camel who bears grudges then do not befriend a hateful individual who bears grudges.

WHO LOVES TO MEET ALLAH ?
From ‘Ubaadah ibn al-Saamit (radi Allahu anhu), from the Prophet (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) :
“Whoever loves to meet Allah, Allah will love to meet him, and whoever hates to meet Allah, Allah will hate to meet him.”
‘Aa’ishah (radi Allahu anha) : “But we all dislike the idea of death.”
He said, “It is not what you are thinking. When death approaches the believer and he is given the news of Allah’s pleasure and honour, nothing will be more dear to him than what lies ahead of him, so he will love to meet Allah and Allah will love to meet him.
But when death approaches the disbeliever and he is given the news of Allah’s wrath and punishment, nothing will be more disliked by him than that what lies ahead of him, so he will hate to meet Allah and Allah will hate to meet him.”

The Dunya is Cursed…

Ali ibn Abi Taalib (رضي الله عنه) said:
“Verily, the Dunya is coming to an end and the Akhirah is coming to a beginning and they both have children. So be children of the Akhirah and don’t be children of the Dunya. For verily today there is action with no account and tomorrow there is account with no action”

Al-Hasan al-Basri (رحمه الله) said:
“So beware of this land (the dunya) that is falling down and is misleading and deceiving, being decorated by its deceit and having eluded (others) by its delusion, and having killed its people with its hopes. It looks forward with anticipation towards the one who proposes to it for marriage. Hence it becomes like the unveiled bride – all the eyes are looking towards it, and the souls are in love with it, and the hearts are captivated by it.”
