Ramadan Day 4.

“Indeed, We sent it down during a blessed night. Indeed, We were to warn [mankind].” (Qur’an 44:3)

﷽ 

The social benefits of Ramadan.

*Heart Health Repentance*
“O believers! Turn to Allah in sincere repentance, so your Lord may absolve you of your sins and admit you into Gardens.” (Qur’an 66:8)

Repentance is turning back to Allah and it’s necessary to enter paradise.

But repentance will not be accepted if it doesn’t meet these conditions:
1- Deep regret for committing the sin
2- Determination to never return to the sin
3- Stopping the sin
4- Istighfar (asking for forgiveness with the tongue)
5- Returning the rights to the people, if the sin includes people’s rights

*Allah is not a body*
“There is nothing like Him, for He ˹alone˺ is the All-Hearing, All-Seeing” (Qur’an 42:11)

Allah exalted is sanctified from any parts, like a hand, a face, a leg, an eye…etc, or anything that can make Allah sound similar to his creation, because bodies are for creatures, in addition, if we attribute a body to Allah that will necessarily mean that Allah is limited by six directions, and all of this is impossible in the case of Allah Subhanahu Wata’ala

*Traveling prayer*
When traveling, prayers are a little bit different, here are some rulings regarding the prayer When traveling:
– The traveling distance: 12 Km
– There is no time limit for these rulings as long as you are not in your home
– When traveling you pray the 4 Rak’a prayers (Duhr, Asr and Isha’) in 2 Rak’as, and this is *mandatory*.
– When traveling you can join Dhuhr and Asr (2+2) and Maghrib with Isha (3+2), and when joining them you don’t need to pray the Sunan Rawatib.
– Joining the prayer is not mandatory, but they are recommended when actively travelling, and discouraged when staying at some place.

Traveling prayer has many rulings, so if you are confused about something it’s better to ask for the safety of your prayer.

The blind reader, Faris Al-Farqani, delights us with a fragrant recitation that captivates the hearts! When you see that the fruit on the branch do not deny that the roots are pure!

May Allah (swt) Guide the Ummah.

May Allah (swt) Forgive the Ummah

Ramadan Day 3

O believers! Fasting is prescribed for you—as it was for those before you—so perhaps you will become mindful ˹of Allah˺ (Qur’an 2:183)

﷽ 

Tips for Ramadan.

Nasiha (نصيحة) is an Arabic word that means “advice”, “recommendation”, or “sincerity”.

Are you nursing a grudge towards another person or perhaps they are nursing a grudge towards you?

This is some nasiha from Prima Qur’an for you. However, this du’a will only be effective if you are sincere in saying it.

When you make du’a say to Allah (swt) ‘Oh Allah all the good and the khayer that you have given to me I ask of you to also give [this person] but give [this person] more.

Having these things in your heart is weight that you need to release and a negative energy that you simply do not need. Release it!

Maa sha Allah! Beautiful video of a youth leading the people for Tarwih prayer in Ramadan.

People standing attentively to listening to the Created Word of Allah.

*3rd day of Ramadan*
——————————–
*Heart Health Taqwa (righteousness)*
Taqwa is being mindful of Allah in private and in public.
There are three levels of Taqwa:
1- Doing the bare minimum to avoid hell, by avoiding Shirk and major sins.
2- Avoiding any sins even minor ones.
3- Avoiding anything that can distract you from mentioning Allah.

May Allah grant us the highest level of Taqwa.

*Affirming that Allah has no like, peer or equal*
Allah exalted is sanctified from any like, peer or equal.
A like (shibh شبه): is someone who is similar in most attributes.
A peer (nid ند): is the equal and opposite.
An equal (mathal مثل): Is someone who is similar in all attributes.

So Allah should not be assigned any attributes from the attributes of creatures, (There is nothing like Him, for He ˹alone˺ is the All-Hearing, All-Seeing.)

Some might say: people are hearing and Allah is hearing, people see and Allah sees…etc, and the answer to this is firstly: The attributes of Allah are his essence while humans need tools to have them, Allah’s attributes are absolute, human attributes are limited. so the use of similar word to describe the attributes of Allah and humans doesn’t make them the same.

*Perfecting Wudu’*
The Blessed Prophet (saw) said: “No faith for one without prayer, and no prayer with no Wudu”, and no fasting without stopping the prohibitions of Allah”

Based on this we see that Wudu’ is an important subject for a Muslim, if the Wudu’ is false then the prayer is false, so we must perfect our Wudu’ to secure our prayer, here are some important notes:
– When washing the face, the water should reach the entire face, from the hair line to the chin, and from the ear to the other ear, with wetting the beard
– When washing the arm it should reach the whole arm including the elbow, so make sure the elbow is washed as well.
– When washing the foot make sure that the water reaches all sides of the foot, in the Hadith: (run through your toes before they are cleaned with nails of fire)

There are more notes in Wudu’, but these are important ones as they are in the pillars of Wudu’ in addition to wiping the head.

and Allah knows best

Ramadan Day 2

“Ramaḍan is the month in which the Quran was revealed as a guide for humanity with clear proofs of guidance and the decisive authority.” (Qur’an 2:185)

﷽ 

The second day of Ramadan! May Allah (swt) continue to bless this Ummah and bless all of you!

Great tips by brother Hatim Abdis-Salam on what to eat and how to organize one’s day during Ramadan.

*Heart Health: Sincerity*


Sincerity is for a Muslim to seek the pleasure of Allah in their actions. It is also said to be breaking one’s self-interests, cutting off worldly desires, and dedicating oneself to the Hereafter.

The truth of sincerity is between the servant and his lord, so no creature can access one’s intentions, that’s why when a Muslim starts an action, his intention should be for the sake of Allah, so that it’s free of hypocrisy, and in the Hadith: “The intention of the believer is better than his action”

*The three sentences*
The first obligation in Islam is three sentences:
1- I bear witness there is no god except for Allah.
2- And that Muhammed is the messenger of Allah.
3- And that what Muhammed came with is the truth from Allah.
in Arabic:
أشهد الا إله إلا الله، وأن محمداً رسول الله،
وأن ما جاء به محمد هو الحق من عند الله
The third sentence is differed on, but many of our scholars include it. It is differed on the sense on rather it needs to be uttered. The first two sentences are agreed upon.

The importance of these sentences lie on the fact that they bring people to the fold of Islam, whoever pronounces them then his blood and wealth are Haram.

*Delaying fasting and breaking the fast early*
If someone eats after Adhan Al Fajr thinking that it’s still not Fajr, what is his ruling?
Answer: Nothing is on him, because the origin is the continuation of the night.

If someone eats before Maghreb thinking it’s already Maghreb, what is his ruling?
Answer: He should redo that day after Ramadan, his fasting is broken, because the origin is the continuation of the day.

May Allah (swt) Guide the Ummah.
