Allah subhanahu wa’ta’ala tells us the comfort that we will achieve when we have Allah is such that no matter what news you will know how to process the news.
Remember when you tell people things, who are you telling and what are you telling them? Are you sure that you want this person to know this particular piece of information? You’re sure it’s not going to harm you. It’s not going to be dangerous in one way or another?
Allah says protect yourselves by knowing who you should be talking to and what you should be saying.
Many non-Muslims who inboxed me and said the Muslims are racist. I got a message.
The best of guidance Is the guidance of the messenger Muhammad sallallahu alehiwassallaam. The Best of Books is the book of ALLAH AZZAWAJAL, the Mighty, the Quran.
If you want to follow, If you want to judge Islam, don’t judge you according to individuals, If you want to judge Islam Then look at the best of example the messenger Muhammad sallallahu alehiwassallaam. If you want to follow Islam then follow the message of the messenger Muhammad sallallahu alehiwassallaam. And if you want to look for a book for guidance, then look no further other than the Quran, the final revelation.
The messenger salallahu alihi wasalam said there is no difference between a black or white, between a Arab or non-Arab…
And if you got a problem with the color of someone’s skin, Then you have a problem with Allah, do you know why? Because of Allah is the one who fashioned him, Allah is the one who made him, Allah is the one who created him. if you have a problem with a color of his skin then you are saying Allah, Almighty made a mistake and that could never happen.
All lives matters but this moment of time, black lives do matter
If you’re a racist and you hate black people, then just remember this that the prophet (saw) was breastfed from a black woman. The muezzin of the Prophet salallahu alaihe Salam belal (R) was a black man.
The prophet salallahu alaihe Salam, he demolished Racism and he said there are no difference between a black and a white, Arab and non-arab. Everyone is equal and and the only way a person could become better than another person, The Quran has given a definition is by taqwa; those who are God fearing…..
The world of the Unseen, in the Unseen and the Unseen we only know through the Quran and the Sunnah. Allah subhanahu wa’ta’ala who has been very merciful to us to tell us what is happening in the Unseen.
No one else has got any power and they will never gain any power without Allah’s power. So, our primary belief is that Allah is behind everything and nothing, absolutely nothing can overcome Allah, Absolutely nothing
My own human will power is going to have an effect on how I confront the Unseen World.
If I make my willpower and if I make my thoughts to believe that bi’iidhn Allah/ with Allah’s permission, Nothing is going to affect me, Then nothing will affect me because I have put my trust in Allah.
If you are a True Believer, it’s not all about yourself. It’s about us.
I don’t want to be harmed. So I definitely will not harm and I’m going to go a step further and help those who I think maybe be harmed by others. I’ll try to protect others as well. So that Allah will protect me.
So, Allah speaks about a certain quality that’s very dangerous and we need to protect ourselves from it and we need to talk about it and we need to be protected from it as well.
In verse number 54 of Surat annisa, Allah speaks about jealousy and what it does, don’t allow yourself to be jealous of others. Thank Allah for bestowing upon others His Favor, the most you could do is to ask Allah to give you a similar favor but never ask Allah to extinguish a favour He’s given someone else just because you want it.
So Allah is telling you don’t be jealous of others.
By you being jealous you automatically become unhappy with what Allah has chosen for someone. And if you’re unhappy with Allah, you have plunged yourself into the biggest possible crisis.
Work hard towards achieving what you want. Try call out to Allah, say to Allah, oh Allah you’ve blessed this person with so much grant them more, give them Baraka and bless me too in a similar way.
Never write off a person simply because they’ve done something wrong.
If you were to be excommunicated because of the sin you’ve committed, every single one of us would be excommunicated just because Allah has covered. You do not mean you’re innocent.
So go easy on others and Allah will go easy on you.
We all falter, we all commit sins. So let’s not play the nobleman by trying to belittle others instead of helping them.
In fact, when you wake up for fajr, you’ve got a jinn that’s already tied, a shaytan has already tied three knots over your head. Every human being especially the ones that want to wake up fajr, There’s a specific group of shaytans that are just after making us miss fajr Salah.
One of the key things in the wudu, we do to try and get the influence of the shaitan away is to rinse the nose probably.
We don’t have racism in Islam. We have racism from amongst the Muslims. But the religion of al-Islam dealt with the issue of racism.
Al-Islam is uppermost, al-Islam is elevated, Al-Islam goes on top and nothing goes over al-Islam- nothing.
Why racism is so disgusting in the sight of Allah (swt)? Allah created all people, all features are from Allah azzawaja.
when you look at someone who is different to you, and you think (sneering) I hold you in contempt, I don’t like the way you look. what you really trying to say is I don’t like the way Allah created you and that is really bad.
No virtue of an Arab over a non-arab or a white over a black or vice versa except by taqwa. the minute you think because my complexion is lighter or darker or because I belong to this tribe or because I belong to this particular nationality or because I am this or I am that, that I am better.
That’s the same minute, You have dropped your crystals……
Remember you are just a number. everyone else is like you trying to please Allah.
Islam has taught us how to select your friends and has advised us what type of friends we should have. It’s also made mention of the impact of friends and how on the Day of Judgment a person who had bad friends would actually regret those particular friends.
Allah subhanahu wa’ta’ala says o you who believe be conscious of Allah, develop the correct relationship with Allah subhanahu wa’ta’ala and be in the company of those who are as-Sadikin. So who are as-Sadikin? They are the ones who are truthful. They are true to Allah.
A true friend will not tell you what you want to hear. But we’ll tell you what you need to hear. a true friend will correct you in a beautiful way not just cheer you on when you’re going in the wrong direction. A true friend will tell you my brother my sister what you did is actually not right. subhanALlah, those are true friends.
Allah says the best of friends in this world on that day will be the worst of enemies besides those who had a good relationship with Allah, those who had taqwa, those who had piety which means they will start blaming each other; I’m in Hell Fire today because of you, other one will say no it’s because of you and so on.
To take your precautions and to ensure that you have tied your camel before you say I lay my trust in Allah.
the prophet salallahu alaihe wasalam says work hard towards achieving that which is beneficial for you. Do whatever you can to ensure that what you want, you will get it by the will of Allah. Work hard, Say the name of Allah, seek the help of Allah and go forth.
Then if something bad were to happen to you, then you don’t blame anyone or anything. You just say Allah wanted that to happen.
We must remember saving lives is still our duty. We must remember as much as the lockdown or the restrictions may be disappearing. The virus has not disappeared.
In fact a Believer is the one who is supposed to care even more. A Believer is the one who is supposed to be even more conscious of Life, of sickness, of the spread of evil, the spread of anything harmful.
It is prohibited upon a Believer to spread something harmful even if it were just a foul smell from your own mouth. imagine a disease, imagine something that was really harmful to the lives of people let alone just a stench or a smell from your mouth.
Do something constructive, not destructive, remember those Words because if you tackled boredom with something destructive, it will occupy you with something very very regretful.
Most prominent ritual that people do in shawwal is fasting the six days of shawaal.
You have to make up for the missed days of Ramadan so that you would have fulfilled fasting the whole month of Ramadan. And after that you must… if you wish fast the six days of shawwal in order to fall under the category and under the reward of the Prophet (saw) that afterwards meaning after fasting Ramadan you follow that with six days of shawwal.
if I select to fast Mondays and Thursdays with the intention of the six days of shawwal, you get two birds with one stone.
