Unique Bank Account ! Imagine you had a bank account that deposited Rs.86,400 each morning. The account carries over no balance from day to day, allows you to keep no cash balance, and every evening cancels whatever part of the amount you had failed to use during the day. What would you do? Draw out every Rupees each day! We all have such a bank. Its name is Time. Every morning, it credits you with 86,400 seconds. Every night it writes off, as lost, whatever time you have failed to use wisely. It carries over no balance from day to day. It allows no overdraft so you can't borrow against yourself or use more time than you have. Each day, the account starts fresh. Each night, it destroys an unused time. If you fail to use the day's deposits, it's your loss and you can't appeal to get it back. There is never any borrowing time. You can't take a loan out on your time or against someone else's. The time you have is the time you have and that ...

*The Day of Eid!* The Month of Ramadaan is coming to an end and the transition from Ramadan to Eid and thereafter should be a path that brings us closer to our Creator and a path that treads the Sunnah i.e. The way of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) . After a month of sacrifice, Allah Ta'ala takes it upon Himself to reward His faithful servants. Allah Ta'ala is the Most Generous and Most Benevolent. Indeed Allah Ta'ala's Generosity multiplies in Ramadaan. When Allah Ta'ala sees His servants carry out all their duties faithfully and strive to gain closeness to Him through their Fasting, Salaat, patience, recitation of Quraan, zikr, dua, and controlling of even permissible desires and needs like food, drink etc. then Allah Ta'ala bestows on His faithful servants a special prize on the night preceding the day of Eid. *THE PRIZE GIVING NIGHT* :  The night before Eid ul Fitr is known as Laylatul Jaaizah (the night of prize giving). It is on this n...

Avoid being Quarrelsome One of the lessons we learn from this hadith is to avoid conflicts and being quarrelsome even in situations where we may be right. Again, while we should point out the truth but we should not become quarrelsome and should avoid all attitudes and attributes of being one of such people. We especially tend to get into such situations with people to whom we are closer because there are fewer barriers between us and them but then that exposure also risks deterioration of relationships by getting into quarrelsome situations frequently…Let’s heed to the prophet’s call and restrain ourselves instead. Avoiding Conflicts in Islam Most Hated Person to Allah (A) Narrated ‘Âishah ?: The Prophet said, “The most hated person to Allâh is the one who is most quarrelsome of the opponents.” (Sahih Al-Bukhâri, Vol.3, Hadîth No.637). Avoiding Arguments and Disputes – A religious message (B) Narrated Abu Umamah Allâh’s Messenger said: “(a) I guarantee a hom...

*بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ* ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA) has sent down the best statement, a Book (this Qur'aan), its parts resembling each other in goodness and truth, oft-repeated. The skins of those who fear their LORD shiver from it (when they recite it or hear it). Then their skin and their heart soften to the remembrance of ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA). That is the guidance of ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA) by which HE Guides whom HE wills, and whomever ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA) sends astray, for him there is no guide. *[Surah Az-Zumar 39, Verse 23]* **BELIEVER  REMINDS http://bit.ly/2VmtEF7*

JUZ FOUR: SURAHS/AYAAT: 3. Aal-e-Imran (92-end) 4. Al-Nisa (1-23) SUMMARY: Having appealed to the Christians in the preceding part of Aal-e-‘Imran and the Jews in the previous chapter, ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA) now directs HIS verses to the Muslim community. This begins with a call for the Muslim community to remain united, holding fast to the rope of ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA). It then addresses the battles of Badr and ‘Uhud, detailing the reasons why Badr was a victory against all odds and ‘Uhud the opposite. ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA) concludes by reminding us that HIS Promise is certain and that we must remain patient and have Taqwa (ALLAAH Consciousness). In this Juz also begins the chapter al-Nisa (Women), named after the numerous references to women and injunctions related to them. This chapter is important, as being revealed after the defeat at ‘Uhud it covers some of the inevitable consequences; widows, orphans and the fair distribution of wealth. L...

Rewards of Tarawih prayer is different for each day The importance and virtue of tarawih prayers Tarawih is a means for forgiveness of the sins “Allah (swt) has made Ramadan fasting obligatory. I have made the night prayer (tarawih) sunnah. He who fasts and observes night prayers believing the virtues and seeking his reward from Allah (swt), He will be saved from his sins as a newborn baby.” (Nasai) Whoever performs Tarawih prayer a palace made of ruby will be built for him in Jannah When it is the first night of Ramadan; the doors of skies and the Paradise are opened. And This continues until the last night (of the Ramadan). Whoever   (man or woman); for every sajdah that he makes one of the nights of Ramadan, one thousand seven hundred hasanah (rewards) will be recorded. A palace made of red ruby will be built for him and each of its doors will have two wings embroidered with red ruby. ( Al-Ghunyat’ut-Talibin) During Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and Abu Bakr (ra)’s t...

JUZ TW0* AYAAT :* Al-Baqarah (142 - 252) * SUMMARY:* I n this Juz, ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA) responds to the Jews of the time and the accusations they made when the direction of prayer was changed from the al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem to Al-Ka’bah in Makkah. Importantly ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA) concludes the issue by indicating that purification of one’s soul is more important than facing any particular direction in prayer. The Juz also covers ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA)’S wisdom over a number of matters; Inheritance; Marriage; Hajj; and most pertinently, Fasting – the only place in the Qur'aan to contain such detailed information about this great act of worship. Throughout this Juz and in between even its most detailed regulations, ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA) stresses again and again the necessity of man maintaining, at all times, Taqwa (ALLAAH Consciousness) – to remain conscious of ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA) in all his affairs. *LESSONS:* • T...

*JUZ ONE* *SURAHS:* 1. Al-Fatiha 2. Al-Baqarah (1 - 141) *SUMMARY:* The first Juz of the Qur'aan comprises its opening chapter, the seven verses of al-Fatihah (the Opener) and the first part of its longest chapter, al-Baqarah (the Heifer). It is not without reason that some of the early generations considered al-Fatihah to be the ‘Mother of the Book’. In its seven short verses, it contains praise of ALLAAH, it affirms worship must be for HIM Alone and ends by informing us about the path of guidance. It is followed by the first part of al-Baqarah, which unfolds the nature of mankind through the narrative of the story of Adam (ALAHYI SALLAM) and his expulsion from Paradise. The chapter then moves onto the story of the Children of Israel (the Jews) and teaches us important lessons from the story of the heifer (cow). *LESSONS:* • Worship is solely and exclusively for ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA), and one must turn to HIM Alone for help • ALLAAH (SUBHANAHU WA TA...

Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) used to say, when beginning a khutbah (sermon): “… The best of speech is the Book of Allah and the best of guidance is the guidance of Muhammad. The worst of things are those which are newly-invented, and every innovation is a going astray…” [1] Here are some of the misconceptions regarding the fifteenth of Sha’baan. Humbly request all to read them with a sincere heart and an open-mind, one which is willing to accept the truth when it is presented to it. Misconception #1: The night of the 15th of Sha’baan should be singled out for worship, prayer, etc. Clarification: Our best example and role model is the Prophet (peace be upon him) and he never, ever singled out this night for worship or qiyaam nor did his Sahaba (may Allāh be pleased with them all). Shaykh Ibn Baaz (may Allāh have mercy upon him) said: “There is no saheeh hadeeth concerning the night of the fifteenth of Sha’baan. All the ahaadeeth that have been narrated conce...
