The diamonds are our life which we waste away in bits without any benefit ⏰:

- Once, a fisherman sat at the riverbank in darkness just before appearance of the dawn 🌌

He found a sack filled with stones 🪨


He picked a stone from the sack and threw it into the river. The sound of the stone as it landed in the water fascinated him so much 👂🏻


So he threw more and more stones into the river because the sound of the stones as they land in the river fascinated him 💓


As the sun appeared on the horizon, the content of the sack beside him became clearer 🌥


There was only a single stone left in the sack when the sun shone. So the fisherman looked at the last stone in the sack only to realize that it was a diamond 💎


Thus, it became clear to him that all these whiles, he has been throwing diamonds in the river, and not stones 😱


He started lamenting, regrettably saying, how foolish have I been?!!! 🥴


How could I be throwing diamonds into the river thinking that they were ordinary stones just to enjoy the sound that they make! By Allāh had I known its worth, I would never have been so reckless!!! 😭


Sadly, everyone of us is this man...‼️


The diamonds are our life which we waste away in bits without any benefit ⏰


The sound of the water is the enjoyment and desires of this life which shall vanish almost immediately 💭


The darkness of the night is the heedlessness with which we live our lives 🌌


The appearance of the dawn is the reality that sets in at the point of death - the point of no return. ⚰️ 


May Allah guide us & help us to live a productive, useful and beneficial life 

 🤲🏻 آمــــــــــين✨ ♥️

Indeed Paradise lies at the feet of a Mother. Even if you sacrifice your whole Lîfē for your parents, you have done nothing for them!

SHE DOESN'T KNOW THAT I'M HER SON , BUT I KNOW SHE'S MY MOTHER...  TRUE STORY!!!!!! A Saudi lady doctor narrated a story about a patient! A Saudi guy aged 30 named Mohammad entered the lady Doctor's  room and he had his mother with him.  She wanted to run away from his son. She unset her niqab again and again but her son set it back again and again.  She would bite his hands and spit on his face and her son kept smiling... Then his mother threw her niqab and started laughing and going around the Doctor's table.  Doctor asked Mohammad who she was and  he replied, 'my Mother'.  Then she asked him what's her story, he replied that she was born with mental disorder.  Then she asked him, how she gave birth to you. He told her my grandfather made my father marry her to get a son. So my father married her and divorced her after a year and I was born. And since I was about 10 years old, I am the one serving her. When I want to sleep I tie my foot with her...

A dua from a parent to their children:

Let us all pray for our children with this long dua.  A POWERFUL DU'A FOR CHILDREN! In the name of Allah, the most Beneficent, the most Merciful! All praises are for Allah SWT, the most Compassionate, the most Forgiving. Salutations and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad SAW, his family and companions. Oh Allah, I submit myself to You. I realise that parenting a child is a very difficult task and I turn to You in humility for Your help. I implore You for Your wisdom and guidance. Oh Allah, I know that our children are an amaanat from You, to care for and to raise in a manner that is pleasing to You. Help me do that in the best way. Teach me how to love in a way that You would have me love. Help me where I need to be healed, improved, nurtured, and made whole. Help me walk in righteousness and integrity so that You may always be pleased with me. Allow me to be a God-fearing role model with all the communication, teaching, and nurturing skills that I may need. Oh Allah, You know ...

Speaking in soft positive manner would not cost you anything but would enchant those you speak to and get rid of any ill feelings:

 There was once a king who saw in a dream that all his teeth had fallen out. He called a dream-interpreter, told him what he saw in the dream, and asked him to interpret it. When the interpreter heard the dream, his complexion changed and he began to repeat, “Allāh’s refuge is sought! Allāh’s refuge is sought!” The king became worried and asked, “What is the interpretation of my dream?” The interpreter said, “After many years pass, your wife and children will die and you will be all alone in your kingdom!” The king screamed, became furious, and began to hurl abuses and insults. He then ordered that the interpreter be imprisoned and called another interpreter, related to him what he saw in the dream and asked him for its interpretation. The dream-interpreter smiled and said, “Glad tidings, dear king!” The king said, “What is the interpretation of the dream?” The interpreter said, “It means that you will live for very long – so long that you will be the last of your family to die, an...

​⭕ ​Kufr wa Shirk ⭕

*​❧ Allah Ta’ala ki sifaat mein shirk:* ❧ Allah Ta'ala ki sifaat mein shirk ka matlab yeh hai ke jo sifaat Allah Ta'ala ke saath khaas hain, un ko kisi doosre ke liye maanna jaise Allah Ta'ala ke alaawa kisi ko rozi dene waala aur aulaad dene waala samajhna, kisi Nabi aur wali ke baare mein yeh aqeeda rakhna ke un ko khuda ki tarah gaib ki tamaam baaton ka ilm hai, Allah Ta'ala ki tarah kisi doosre ko ibaadat ka mustahiq samajhna aur us ke liye ibaadat ka koi fel karna jaise kisi qabr par ya kisi buzurg ke saamne sajda karna, kisi paigambar aur wali ke naam ka roza rakhna aur un ke naam par jaanwar zabah karna wagaira wagaira. ❧ Gunaahon mein kufr-o-shirk sab se bade gunah hain, kufr-o-shirk toba ke bagair hargiz maaf nahin hote, kufr-o-shirk ki haalat mein marne waala hamesha Jahannam mein rahega. ❧ Qur‘aan Majeed mein Allah Ta'ala ne shirk ke baare mein farmaaya: “Beshak Allah Ta'ala shirk ko maaf nahin karega aur is ke alaawa ji...

The test of patience and Prophet Ayyoob (عليه السلام)

A piece of advice to our brothers and sisters especially in these times, read and ponder over the story of Prophet Ayyoob (عليه السلام). He had good health, big family, then he was tried with sickness and poverty for 18 years! And the loss of his family except his wife. "And (remember) Ayyoob, when he cried to his Lord: "Verily, distress has seized me,& You are the Most Merciful of all those who show mercy. So We responded to him & removed what afflicted him of adversity." (21:83) He called upon his Lord directly and His Kind Lord answered him. Allaah تعالى  described His noble Prophet- Ayyoob (عليه السلام) in His saying: إِنَّا وَجَدْنَاهُ صَابِرًا ۚ نِّعْمَ الْعَبْدُ ۖ إِنَّهُ أَوَّابٌ "Truly! We found him patient. How excellent (a) slave! Verily, he was ever oft-returning in repentance (to Us)!" (38:44) Imām 'Abdur Rahmān As-Sa'dee (رحمه الله) mentioned, ..."Ayyoob (عليه السلام) became an example for the patient ones, a co...

We need to go back to these core teachings and examples of Islam and similarly strive for achieving an ethical and moral society, wherever we live:

- Assalamualaikum, For those who can drop their 21st century cultural baggage and read this sermon in its own historical context, one can’t help but admire it as one of the earliest declarations of human rights in written history. Almost everything Muhammad SAWS says in this prophetic sermon was almost unheard of and inconceivable prior to the arrival of Islam. The Prophet of Islam addresses some of the core universal values in a society where those values are long forgotten and violated in a systemic basis. The Prophet didn’t only say but transformed his society, in a very short period of time, remarkably in all the values and lessons that he talks about.  In this sermon of Muhammad SAWS, Muslims find their deep commitment to the universal human values such as sacredness of life and property, equality, justice, peace and more. Upon these high universal values, the religion of Islam was built.  We still have so much to learn from this 1,440-plus-year-old cry and we are so much...

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...
