Forgive and ask Forgiveness- Success of Married life:

When a husband is rude, abusive and bad tempered: the wife is told to have sabr and reminded what a good muslim wife does. But when a wife is rude and bad tempered: the husband is told to find a more pious wife, she is told women don't act this way and her character slandered. Why don't anyone give this advise instead? 👇 •• It is reported that a man came to 'Umar ibn Al-Khattab (radhiAllahu anhu) to complain about his wife's ill-temper. While he was waiting for 'Umar to come out of his house, he heard 'Umar's wife scolding him and 'Umar quietly listening to her, and not answering her back. The man turned around and started walking away, muttering to himself: "If that is the case with 'Umar, the leader of the believers, who is famous for his uprighteness and toughness, then what about poor me?!" At that moment, 'Umar came out of his house and saw the man walking away. He called him and said, "What is it you want o...

Charity wrapped in Dignity!

She asked him, "How much are you selling the eggs for?" The old seller replied to her, "Rs.5/- for one egg, Madam." She said to him, "I will take 6 eggs for Rs.25/- or I will leave." The old seller replied, "Come take them at the price you want. May Allah bless us, and maybe this is a good beginning because I have not been able sell to anyone today." She took it and walked away with a feeling that she has won. She got into her fancy car and went to pick her friend, and invited her to a posh  restaurant. She and her friend sat down and ordered what they liked. They ate a little and left a lot of what they ordered. Then she went to pay the bill. The bill was Rs.1,400/-. She gave him Rs. 1,500/- and said to the owner of the restaurant: "Keep the change." This incident may seem quite  normal to the owner of the restaurant. But it is very painful for the poor egg seller. The bottom line is: Why do we show that we have the power when...

Modesty in Women:

The clothing of a woman depicts her upbringing by her father, the sense of honour (ghayrah) of her brother, the manliness of her husband, her keenness to emulate her mother and above all, her conciousness of Allah watching her. This is why they said to Maryam (RA): _O sister of Haaroon, your father was not an evil man and your mother was not a loose woman._ (Quran ) They reminded her of her brother, father and mother. If these people are upright, she will also be upright.  A pious person said, "Revealing clothes on a woman is a sign that Allah is angry with her, as He removed the clothing of Adam and Hawwaa (as) when He was displeased with them." A young girl says, "When I see a young female exposing and revealing herself, I look at her parents and think of the verse:  _Stop them, indeed they will be questioned_. This causes me to have even more modesty so that my mother should not be questioned." Most of that which Allah made impermissible...

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 😢 ...
