The most honorable work in the world is that done sincerely for Allah:

If you make the claim that you are serving for the sake of Allah, expect Allah to constantly test you in that claim.

Expect ingratitude from the people you hope to benefit.

Expect people constantly questioning your intentions and work.

Expect that keyboard warriors will wage war on you.

Expect feeling lonely amongst your peers.

That’s all part of the package.

This doesn’t justify the bad behavior of others, but makes you independent of their behavior as a whole.

The most honorable work in the world is that done sincerely for Allah, but that honor should be sought only from Him.

This life, along with all of it’s hardships caused by the people you will encounter in it, is temporary.

The next life, along with all of it’s reward for the righteous and the praise of the Most High, is eternal.

Quran Juz 21 – Utlu Ma Oohiya - Summary:

- Quran Juz 21 – Utlu Ma Oohiya Summary Join Us: https://chat.whatsapp.com/EwGX2NFn95O2Bo92HkyyiI • This Juz starts off with the divine commands of Quranic recitation and establishment of prayers. • The benefit of establishing prayers is mentioned. It keeps a person off from indecency and vulgarity. Hence, a Muslim can use this as a parameter to know the acceptance or rejection of his/her prayers in the Court of Allah. • How can a person deem his prayers as acceptable if s/he is involved in lies, breach of promises, oppression, open loot, indecency in vision and speech etc. • One of the characteristic features of Prophet Muhammed ﷺ is being mentioned, that is he did not formally learn to read and write. However, his teacher is Allah the Exalted; there is a hidden wisdom behind this aspect. • Then Allah commanded that a Muslim must not shun morals should there be a need to discuss and debate with the People of the Book (Jews and Christians). ...

Some of the traditional methods of raising children in Tarim (Yemen):

*Raising children* Some of the traditional methods of raising children in Tarim (Yemen). This is really beautiful. Women expecting children would ensure every morsel going into their mouths was halal. Breastfeeding mothers would repeatedly recite Ayah al-Kursi, Surah al-Falaq, Surah al-Nas and du'as of protection over their babies. When a child first began to speak it would be taught to say: رَضِيتُ بِاللهِ رَبّاً، وبِالإِسْلامِ دِيناً، و بسيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَبِيَّاً ورَسُولاً ‘I am content with Allah as my Lord, with Islam as my religion, and with our Master Muhammad ﷺ as my Prophet and Messenger.’ Parents would teach their children the importance of making good intentions and what intentions to make just as they would teach them how to recite Surat al-Fatiha. Parents would teach their children to call upon Allah in every situation. If a child asked for something, his parents would tell him to perform wudu, pray two rak'ats and then ask Allah to fulfil his...

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...

I am on duty to serve:

When an European Airline was initially launched, an educated Muslim gentleman was travelling in the first class section. An air hostess approached him with a complimentary drink, this was an alcoholic drink so the man politely refused. The air hostess returned but this time bought the drink on a platter, designed to appeal and impress. However the Muslim man again politely refused, explaining he doesn't drink alcohol. The air hostess was concerned and informed the manager. The manager approached the man with another platter, now designed with flowers, he questioned, “is there something wrong with service? please enjoy the drink, it is a complimentary offer.” The man replied, “I am a Muslim and I do not drink alcohol.” The manager still insisted that the man take the drink. Then, the Muslim proposed that the manager should give the drink to the pilot.. The manager stated, “how can the pilot drink alcohol, he’s on duty! And if he drink...

Can women perform salah at musjid and attend Eid salah:

Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakaatuh Respected Brothers and Sisters in Islam There is a trend starting in various places to have Family Eidgaahs and women are being encouraged to attend the Eid Salaah. Those that encourage women to go to the Musjid and to attend the Eid Salaah, generally do so based on the narrations stating that in the time of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, women used to attend the congregational prayer in the Musjid and the Eid Prayer as well. In this regard, it is important to take note of the following: Women in the time of the Messenger of Allah (Sallallahu Alaihi wasallam) were not prevented from going to the Musjid. This was primarily due to the fact that they had the unique opportunity of praying behind the Messenger of Allah (Sallallahu Alaihi wasallam) Himself. That was an act that cannot be paralleled today. Secondly, they used to observe all the requirements of Shariah including tho...

An annual conference for education development (18th Conference):

* 18th Annual Millat Conference (by MFERD)* #* Perform to Potential*# - Building Holistic Education Systems Dear Brother/Sister, Assalamu Alaikum All praise is to the Almighty Lord who created us and bestowed upon us the title of ‘Khalifa’, His vicegerent on earth. This implies that every individual has the ‘potential’ to perform the duties of the Almighty’s vicegerent. Unfortunately, due to several internal and external hindrances, man doesn’t live up to his potential. Similar is the case of our institutions. In the present world scenario, firmly anchoring and strengthening our educational institutions is of prime importance. It is probably the only way to create a collectively contributing ummah, that can positively influence the future of societies and countries. A handful of schools providing holistic education can significantly change the outlook of an entire city. Such is the potential of educational institutions. But the challenge lies in developing systems and practices (a...

🚫 Our welfare is not decided by who will be the next president or head of any nation. 🚫 Our welfare is not decided by who supports us and who is against us. 🚫 Our welfare is not decided by the “numbers”. 🌟OUR WELFARE IS ONLY THROUGH ISLAAM; 🌟 THROUGH REAL OBEDIENCE TO ALLAAH; 🌟 THROUGH RETURNING BACK TO HIS BOOK AND THE SUNNAH OF HIS MESSENGER صلى الله عليه وسلم 🌴🌴🌴 `Umar رضي الله عنه said: The Prophet (ﷺ) said: ❝By this Book (i.e. the Qur’aan), Allaah exalts some peoples and degrade others.❞ 📚[Saheeh Muslim] 🌴🌴🌴 Our honor is in following Islaam. `Umar Ibn al-Khattaab رضي الله عنه set out for al-Shaam with Abu `Ubaydah bin al-Jarraah رضي الله عنه.
