 * *Two incidents about the loss of a pencil!* *The first case of the missing pencil:* One robber says: Once, when I was in 4th class, I lost my pencil. When I came home I told my mother about it, as a punishment she hit me and scolded me. She called me stupid, irresponsible and much more. As a result of my mother's harsh behaviour, I made up my mind that I would not go to my mother empty-handed, so I decided to steal the pencils of my classmates. The next day, I made a plan and I didn't stop stealing one or two pencils but stole the pencils of all my class fellows. At first, I used to be afraid, but with time I got confident and more fearless. After doing so for a month, I lost the thrill. Then, I decided to go to the next class. I went from one class to another, and finally I went to the school principal's room.  It was a year of practical experience in which I learned to steal both theoretically and practically and then I became a professional bandit. *The second case o...

 - I ask: _"Why was I tested?"_ Quraan answers: *“Do men think that they will be left alone saying, ’We believe’, and that they will not be tested? We did test those before them, and Allah will certainly know those who are true from those who are false.” [29:2-3]* I ask: _"Why could I never get what I want?"_ Quraan answers: *“It is possible that you dislike a thing which is good for you, and that you love a thing, which is bad for you. But Allah knows, while you know not.” [2:216]* I ask: _"Why was I burdened this way?"_ Quraan answers: *“Allah does not place a burden to a soul greater than it can bear. It gets every good that it earns, and it suffers every ill that it earns.” [2:286]* And, *“So verily, with every difficulty there is relief: (repeated) Verily, with every difficulty there is relief.” [94:5-6]* I ask: _"Why do I lose hope?"_ Quraan answers: *“So lose not heart, nor fall into despair…” [3:139]* I ask: _"How can I face it?...

-  *Is it not the time to stop attending big fat & fancy marriage parties?* It was such a big pleasure to read about marriages happening during covid with minimal set of people attending it. No rituals, no traditions, no extravaganza spending and zero showoff. It was dream come true for the people like us supporting and working to ease marriages in our Muslim society. But our good dreams were short lived. We hear of fancy & lavish marriages, even though corona has not left us yet. Didn't our people learn their lessons yet?  *The business around marriages seems to have come back, woe to our people who failed to learn lessons from corona which was such a big Message from Allah swt. Do we need more punishments from Allah swt to return back to the Sunnah? Look around the number of marriage halls in the city have increased many folds... these are not making marriages easy but have made marriages a thriving and lucrative business!* All the mess, traditions, cultures, expendi...

May Allah bless you and your family with good health, happiness and honour.  May this day be very special for you in more ways than you thought. Smile and enjoy.  Abu Hurairah(ra) narrated that the Messenger of Allah(sa) said : "Charity does not diminish wealth. Allah does not increase a man in anything for his pardoning (others) but in honour, and none humbles himself for Allah but Allah raises him". (Tirmidhi V4 H2029) Allah blesses acts of alms giving and charity and makes them the cause of increases in wealth rather than decrease in it. Similarly, the act of forgiving and pardoning a wrong doer from a position of strength is the cause of increase in a man's honour and prestige.  ALWAYS LOOK AT THE GOOD IN OTHERS. . . There are no automatic passports to Jannah. A person earned the favor of Jannah just by quenching the thirst of a dog,  another earned it by just forgiving everyone daily before going to bed. They had nothing much to show, but what they did, mattered...

  From the   Islamic point of view, even though man can have private ownership rights to the wealth, however, Allah has clearly laid down the terms of trust. This is because, in Islam, all wealth belongs to Allah and human beings are only trustees to the wealth. On this point, Islam prescribes ways to carry out the trust so that a person has no right to use it to satisfy his whims. He has to observe the Divine commandments. If the violation is serious,  hence, his inability to use his wealth properly provides the basis for the forfeiture of his right to his wealth.  For those whom Allah has blessed with wealth, it is a test; and Muslims should strive to pass this test by not becoming worshipers of hoarded wealth.  Note: The above is taken from below Source.
