Remember Others!

Do you wish for Allah SWT to forgive you....of course we all want that! Do you wish to earn some easy good deeds especially as we are in the blessed month of Ramadan? When I say easy then I do mean easy as all that is required is to ask Allah SWT to forgive your brothers & sisters in Islam just as you would like for Him to forgive you:


Narrated ‘Ubaadah that the Messenger of Allah said, “Whoever seeks forgiveness for the believing men and believing women, Allah will write for him a good deed for EACH believing man and believing woman.” [at-Tabarani, classed as hasan by al-Albani]


There are over 1.5 billion Muslims in this world. Every good deed in Ramadan is multiplied by 70 or more so everytime we make dua for every Muslim we will gain 105 billion good deeds. Subhan'Allah!

But can you imagine how many good deeds we can gain if we made dua for every Muslim that ever lived from Adam (AS) until the last Muslim on this Earth. The rewards will go into the trillions!


Remember on the day of judgement we will be going crazy for just one good deed but no one will give us any. This is our chance to gain trillions of good deeds in just seconds. We need these deeds!

So raise those hands after your salah, when you are doing dhikr etc and ask Allah SWT forgiveness for yourself as well as your fellow muslims.....you have nothing to lose....only to GAIN!

Build a House!

  Why not build yourself a beautiful house in jannah....not sure how?

Its pretty simple:

Praying the 12 sunnah prayers each day: ' Allah will build a house in Jannah for whoever is diligent in observing 12 sunnah rakat (as follows) 4 rakat before and 2 after Dhur, 2 after the Maghrib, 2 after Ishaa, and 2 before Fajr.' (Tirmidhi)

Umm Habibah Ramilah bint Abu Sufyan (RA) narrated she heard the Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) saying: “A house will be built in Paradise for every Muslim who offers twelve units of Prayers other than the obligatory ones in day and night, to seek pleasure of Allah.” (Muslim)
 

Well what are you waiting for.....Start from now! 

 

Spiritual Detox for Ramadan

The following points are so cool. They were shared by a very close friend which I felt I needed to share too as I found them to be very useful....something we need to consider not only in the month of Ramadan but throughout the rest of the year:

1. Keep free from eating hi-calorie flesh (gossip) of others no matter how juicy....so true as we seem to love participating in gossip parties!
2. Switch to fat free truths - remember one lie will lead to another until you get termed a liar!
3. Avoid artificial tempers - something very uncool!
4. Do voice therapy by reciting the Qu'ran - the best therapy of all time!
5. Purify your eyes by crying in Dua - dua is the weapon of the believer!
6. Do hand reflexology by doing dhikr - Subhanallah, Alhamdulillah, Allahu Akbar!
7. Brighten your smile by using a miswaak - revive a forgotten sunnah!
8. Take the weight off your shoulders by paying your zakah - think of all those it will help!
9. Shrug off those extra kilos of sins by repenting - our beloved Prophet PBUH used to repent more than 70x a day.

Mighty Call!

'If a Muslim asks Allah SWT with the supplicatiion of prophet Yunus (Jonah), he will be responded to' (Ahmad)

The supplication of Prophet Yunus (Peace be upon him) is such a powerful supplication, a most effective means for obtaining answer to prayer. He was cast into the sea and swallowed by a large fish. The sea was stormy, the night dark and scary, and all hope exhausted. But it was while he was in such a situation that Allah SWT answered his supplication; he made dua in a place where no one has ever made dua....in the belly of the fish:

  

(There is no god other than You, Glory be unto You! Indeed, I was among the wrongdoers)

Dua is the weapon of the Believer.....Use it!
