He (s.a.w) spoke concisely, where the words are less and meaning more:

Imaam Hasan Radiyallahu Anhu says: "I asked my (maternal) uncle Hind bin Abi Haalah (ra), who always described the noble features of Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam, to describe to me the manner in which Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam spoke. He replied that Rasulullah Sallallahu Alayhi'Wasallam was always worried (about the hereafter). And was always busy thinking (about the attributes of Allah and the betterment of the ummah). Because of these things he was never free from thought and never rested (or because of worldly affairs he did not gain rest, but gained rest and contentment from religious well being. It is mentioned in the hadith that the coolness of my eyes is in salaah). He always spoke clearly from beginning to end. (He did not speak in a manner where only half sentences are spoken and the other half remained in the mind of the speaker, as is prevalent among snobbish high-minded and proud people). He spoke concisely, where the words are less and meaning more. (Mulla 'Ali Qaari has collected forty such ahaadith in his commentary which are very short. Those who wish may refer to it and memorise it). Every word was clearer than the previous one. There was no nonsensical talk, nor was there 'half-talks' where the meaning was not complete and could not be grasped. He was not short-tempered, nor did he disgrace anyone. He always greatly appreciated the blessings of Allah even though it might be very minute, he did not criticize it. He did not criticize food, nor over-praised it (The reason for not criticizing food is clear, that it is a blessing from Allah. The reason for not praising it is because it might be felt that one is
gluttonous.

Nevertheless, he praised food if it was to make someone happy, and sometimes praised some special things). He was never angered for anything materialistic. (The reason being that he did not pay much attention, and did not care much about materialistic things). If someone exceeded the limits in religious matters or against the truth, he became so angry that no one could endure it, nor could anybody stop it till he avenged it. If for some reason he made a gesture or pointed at
something, he did it with a full hand. (The 'ulama say the reason being that it is against humbleness to point with one finger only. Some 'ulama say it was his noble habit to signal the oneness of Allah with one finger,
therefore he did not signal anyone in that manner).

When he was surprised by something he turned his hand, and when he spoke
sometimes while talking, he moved his hands, he sometimes hit the palm of his right hand with the inside part of his left thumb. When he became angry with someone, he turned his face away from that person,
and did not pay attention to that person, or he forgave that person.

When he was happy due to humility it seemed as if he had closed his eyes. The laugh of Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam was mostly a smile, at that moment his mubaarak front teeth glittered like white
shining hailstone.

Discipline is not oppression, it is love in action:

 - *The Perils of Pampering: Raising Disciplined, God-Conscious Children*   In a world that glorifies instant gratification, indulgence, and materialism, we risk raising a generation that lacks resilience, respect, and responsibility. The saying, *"A pampered child becomes a spoiled adult,"* holds profound truth. If we fail to discipline our children today, we may find ourselves helplessly watching them struggle tomorrow or worse, witnessing them turn into entitled, inconsiderate adults.   *Discipline is not oppression, it is love in action*. It is the framework that shapes a child’s character, teaching them that life does not always bend to their will. If we refuse to instill these values at home, the world will teach them often in ways we would never approve of.   Islam places immense emphasis on disciplined upbringing. The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said:   > *"Command your children to pray at the age of seven, and discipline them for it at t...

You're either a slave of your desires or a slave of Allāh.

*I post this with tears in my eyes.* This is a Khutbah which was Given by one Ustaz from Osogbo, osun  (Nigeria) What a touching KHUTUBAH please if time allows you  read it. It's worth a Reminder; Published as received. "Every human is a slave. You're either a  slave of your desires or a slave of Allāh. You either live life by your rules or the rule of Allāh. How can the heart travel to God if it's chained by its desires? O' son of Adam! Sell this World for the hereafter and you win both, sell the hereafter for this world & you lose both. #DeenOverDunya Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyah Islam is not a buffet where you pick and choose what suits you. Don't obey your desires. Obey Allaah. "Imprisoned is he, whose heart is imprisoned from Allāh. Captured is he, who is captured by his desires." Fudayl Ibn Iyad was asked "What do you find the strangest of all things?" He said: The heart that knows Allāh, yet still disobeys Him 😢 ...

کیا آپ کا بچہ کند ذہن ہے؟ جانیے لرننگ سٹائلز کے بارے میں!

کیا آپ کا بچہ کند ذہن ہے؟ جانیے لرننگ سٹائلز کے بارے میں! بچوں کے کم یا زیادہ ذہین ہونے کا تعلق ان کے والدین کی تعلیمی قابلیت یا ان کی پیدائش سے بالکل نہیں ہے جب تک بچہ پیدائشی طور پر کسی ایسی بیماری کا شکار نہ ہو جس کی وجہ سے سیکھنے کے عمل پر منفی اثر پڑ سکتا ہو۔ پھر کچھ بچے تدریسی عمل کے دوران کیوں جلدی سیکھ جاتے ہیں جبکہ کچھ کو وہی سبق سیکھنے یا یاد کرنے میں مشکلات کا سامنا کرنا پڑتا ہے؟  اس سوال کا تعلق تعلیمی نفسیات سے ہے جو ایک باقاعدہ سائنس ہے اور اساتذہ کے ہر تعلیمی اور تربیتی نصاب میں اس پر باقاعدہ بات ہوتی ہے۔ تعلیمی نفسیات کے مطابق بر بچے کا لرننگ اسٹائل دوسرے سے مختلف ہوتا ہے۔ ہمارے تعلیمی نظام کا ایک مسلہ یہ بھی ہے کہ اساتذہ ان الگ الگ لرننگ اسٹائلز سے واقف نہ ہونے یا دوران تدریس ان کا خیال نہ رکھنے کی وجہ سے سب بچوں کو ایک ہی طریقے سے پڑھانا شروع کر دیتے ہیں۔ جس کی وجہ سے کچھ بچوں کو بات سمجھ میں آجاتی ہے جبکہ کچھ اسے سمجھنے سے قاصر رہتے ہیں۔ اس طرح بچوں کو ذہین یا کند ذہن لیبل کر دیا جاتا ہے۔ اصل صورت حال اس سے بہت مختلف ہے۔ اس کے لیے یہ سمجھنا ہوگا کہ لرننگ اسٹائلز ...

Why Pork (pig meat) is Haram in Islam? Some scientific observations:

Why Pork is Haram in Islam ~ In the Qur'an Allah has forbidden pork. Do you know that pork is forbidden by Jews, and its forbidden in Bible too. 15 Things You Should Know About Pigs: 1) A pig is a real garbage gut. It will eat anything including urine, excrement, dirt, decaying animal flesh, maggots, or decaying vegetables. They will even eat the cancerous growths off other pigs or animals. 2) The meat and fat of a pig absorbs toxins like a sponge. Their meat can be 30 times more toxic than beef or venison. 3) When eating beef or venison, it takes 8 to 9 hours to digest the meat so what little toxins are in the meat are slowly put into our system and can be filtered by the liver. But when pork is eaten, it takes only 4 hours to digest the meat. We thus get a much higher level of toxins within a shorter time. 4) Unlike other mammals, a pig does not sweat or perspire. Perspiration is a means by which toxins are removed from the body. Since a pig does not sweat, the toxins re...

Eid Mubarak: Beyond the Festivities, Towards a Lifetime of Reflection:

 - ##  Eid Mubarak to you and your loved ones! As the crescent moon graces the sky, marking the end of Ramadan, we are filled with joy, gratitude, and a sense of spiritual renewal. The month of fasting, prayer, and reflection has drawn to a close, leaving behind a beautiful tapestry of shared experiences and strengthened faith.

The spirit of generosity, the commitment to prayer, the dedication to self-improvement – these are not fleeting practices to be abandoned once Eid arrives. This Eid, let's make a conscious effor...

The Doctor, Medicine and Muslims past 1000 years:

 - Muslim science  par excellence  was the study of medicine. Interest in medicine goes back to the very earliest times. The Prophet himself stated that there was a remedy for every illness, and was aware that some diseases were contagious. The great contribution of the Arabs was to put the study of medicine on a scientific footing and eliminate superstition and harmful folk-practices. Medicine was considered a highly technical calling, and one which required long study and training. Elaborate codes were formulated to regulate the professional conduct of doctors. It was not enough to have a mastery of one’s subject in order to practice medicine. Certain moral qualities were mandatory.  Ibn Hazm  said that a doctor should be kind, understanding, friendly, good, able to endure insults and adverse criticism; he must keep his hair short, and his fingernails as well; he must wear clean, white clothes and behave with dignity. Before doctors could practice, they had to...
