What Makes A Believing Woman So Special | Mufti Menk

#MuftiMenk highlights that A believe #woman has focused upon the #pleasure of Allah subhanahu wata’ala .She is focused upon the #goal that she has which is to earn Jannah; to earn #paradise. #She knows that this #life is absolutely temporary and our ultimate retun is to Allah (swt). So this focus upon paradise and upon the pleasure of Allah is what makes us primarily different from the others who are focused upon worldly material items in this lecture.

Mufti Menk quotes “What make her different; she knows that a sacrifice is required of me to serve, to serve who; to serve the cause that Allah has instructed me to serve; she is not enslaved by the adverse environment around her; she is not enslaved by brand names & by #trends because she is original that’s what makes her different.”

What makes Islam Different | Mufti Menk

#MuftiMenk mentions the distinguishing factors which make Islam different to speak about the beauty of #Islam. The beauty of Islam, it has laws that govern the life of #mankind and #jinn kind right up to the end of time and it has taught between the Maker and the One Whom He has made, the Creator created you. Islam is more a way of #life than a #religion in this lecture.

Mufti Menk Quotes from the holy Quran, “say that my prayer belongs to Allah my sacrifice belongs to Allah, my life belongs to Allah, my death belongs to Allah the One Who created entire creation, the Lord of the Worlds the One Who made me, my life belongs to Him my death belongs to Him, my worship belongs to Him alone, my sacrifice belongs to Him alone that is Islam.”

“Islam is a knowledge-based religion; the more you know about it the more you will love it, the closer you will be to your Maker, the more you will understand and the more you will love to adopt its rules and regulations. The less you know the further you will drift.” – Mufti Menk

Tips For Fulfilling Five Salah A Day With Smiling On Time | Mufti Menk

#MuftiMenk addresses that if the #Salah (#prayer) is in order everything else will be easy. If the Salah is not in order the rest of it what do you expect? It’s going to be difficult and tough. He says that one will achieve the greatest joy when he/ she fulfils that Salah when it is difficult for him in this lecture.

Mufti Menk adds five times a day we are called in a certain direction and the caller reminds us because it is that prescription from Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala for the caller to call out five times a day even though we know our duty towards allah subhanahu wa’ta’ala. He mentions some tips how to fulfil salah on time with smiling and contentment.

“Come to success- every one of us male and female; young and old we are looking for success. There is no success beyond that which Allah has promised us. We can never be truly successful if we have disconnected from our five daily prayers.” – Mufti Menk

Two Conditions Of Preparing For Meeting With Allah (SWT) | Mufti Menk

#MuftiMenk mentions that whoever is looking forward or loves to meet Allah (swt) Allah loves to meet him or her. So whosoever from amongst you is looking forward to the meeting with Allah subhanahu wa’ta’ala he needs to make sure primarily that two conditions are met; he needs to do good deeds which are taught by Muhammad (saw) and seek a lot of forgiveness from Allah (swt) in the lecture.

Mufti Menk says that there are so many other ways of achieving the #closeness to Allah of preparing for the meeting with Allah; our #kindness, our reaching out to those in need we’re reaching out to our brothers and sisters whether they are in our city in our locality or across the #globe those who are struggling and suffering just to reach out to them with something small that we may have perhaps with a prayer if we don’t have anything material good words amongst ourselves, cleansing our heart so that we learn to love one another. This is all for the sake of Allah; we will be prepared for the day we meet with Allah (swt).

Mufti Menk Quotes “A believer always knows where he /she is heading. He/ She is always conscious of the fact that he / She will have to meet his / Her Maker one day. If you want to meet with Allah in a beautiful way have hope; have hope in the mercy of Allah never ever lose that hope have a good feeling regarding to Allah (swt).”

Having Hope In People Is Sunnah | Mufti Menk

#MuftiMenk mentions that it’s important for us to look at Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wassalam as the ideal role model. He is the only creature of Allah subhanahu wa’ta’ala or human being whom we can look at from every aspect of his life and say he’s a role model in this lecture.

Mufti Menk adds that there is always a turning point in our lives. Allah does not leave a single human being without direct reminders to him or her in his or her life; it’s not possible. So waiting for the #turningpoint in others is part of the sunnah of Muhammad (saw) when we are soft with people, when we are kind to them, and when we are lenient with them it’s a sign of the mercy of Allah upon us. Mufti Menk Quotes “Be patient wait for the turning point in others and as for yourself; ask yourself am I going to live to see the next morning why should I wait to turn myself to Allah. So when it comes to others we are lenient when it comes to ourselves we should not be lenient; turn now be hard on yourself don’t be hard on others.”

How To Save Good Deeds From Devil’s Trap | Mufti Menk

#MuftiMenk addresses how to save our good deeds from the actions derived by the devils nicely in this lecture with English subtitle. Mufti Menk says Many people do not realize that it is very easy to do a good deed but it is more difficult to keep that good deed intact in a way that it can be of benefit to us when we arrive in front of the Almighty on the day of judgement. So, To protect a good deed is ten times more difficult than to engage in it. If we engage in a good deed mashallah we deserve a #gooddeed and we deserve the multiplication; if we bring it with us on the Day of Judgement.

Mufti Menk Quotes “There is a difference between the human mind & brain and the believing heart; The heart of a believer surrenders to the Almighty whilst the mind might have a question or two of understanding but ultimately whether we understand it or not. When we know the source of the instruction and we still surrender to that particular instruction, we then join the ranks of those who are the Friends of the Almighty such as Ibraheem may Allah’s peace be upon him and may Allah subhanahu wata’ala grant us a lesson from his life as well.”
