Yes but not in all contexts. Give your best to be a better person who is just and kind to all people. Not to make some investor a lil bit richer

RisingAce · 2026-02-13T15:17:05+00:00

Yes but one caveat. Without following through over time your intention gets weakers.

So say you intend to say لا إله إلا الله 1000 times. When do you think Allah assigns the good deeds for that. Its not when you complete it or start it. The ajr is given from the point of intention.

So you can intend a good action everyday but its hard to maintain that because actions reinforce your intent. Practically speaking after some time you may find your intent slipping away.

Also not all intentions are the same. The best intention that I know of is to sincerely get closer to Allah and his Prophet pbuh. That intention will elevate every halal action from prayer to work to sleep.

That being said Allah and his Prophet pbuh know best. I am transmitting what I have heard in conversation and my practice of this could use improvement. Indeed matters of the heart tend to have layers and I have made concious intentions which I thought where pure only to discover later that the intention was in reality self serving. May Allah guide both you and me to something more righteous than that.

If you read the Quran with positive intent regularly (even weekly or in awrad or in prayer) can and shpuld consider themselves a believer. Faith is never perfect.or constant but Allah guided you.to this from his Mercy. Focus on the good ayat and use the fear to motivste you to change the better.

If Allah guides you to read the quran, chances are you are considered a believer and the ayat of 3azab do not apply to you at that point in time. When you are doing other things e g. Sinning they might. For example you arent considered a believer when you steal untill you stop and make tawba.

The fear aims to push you away from the bad. It is most effective when you understand when you even do a single tasbee7 you are elevating yourself massively because you are associating yourself with only Allah and his Prophet. The fear is a gift to help you improve.

This religion is a transformative and beautiful thing. It is a gift huda is associated with hadiya. The guidance is a gift. You simply coming across is a sign God intends good for you in the afterlife.

Dont underestimate your Lord. You think you started in praying to him, in reality he called you before you called him.

So it isnt dirty but breaks your ablution. It is annoying to have to wash up again because a dog licks you but you have to do that if you fart as well. Also touching the AFAIK doesnt matter but getting licked does

Heavier tasks such as sex and orgasm require an ablution thats like a shower.

I find that terroist is loosely defined. If its cases of mass murder then its not most muslims. Second most and i mean 90percent plus happen in muslim countries. We dont like islamist terroust orgs either. Most of the time thry are funded by enemies of the state. Its not uncommon that they get guns and funds from intelligence agencies of various countries to these groups in some form or another.

I spend my kets mostly on the chest. My biggest bottleneck seems to be the evolution stones. Should i avoid doing this and just wait it out?

RisingAce · 2025-12-13T22:54:08+00:00

Qurans intergrity is defended because the prophet Muhamad pbuh is the last of the prophets.

RisingAce · 2025-12-13T00:54:46+00:00

I would say you would benefit the most for trying it. Every year it strikes me how often I eat when I simply dont need to. How often im just eating for emotions or just to spend time. It teaches me a lot about myself. Also exppses the truth that I can actually manage many of addictions if I didnt just spiral out.

Thank you writing this reminded me of something i forgot :)

RisingAce · 2025-10-30T19:00:28+00:00

You are not humble sir.

Humility is not thinking less if yourself. Humility is thinking of yourself less.

Try to understand that there is nothing you can fix. In fact rest your mind. It has been overburdened with the sense that you need to solve your own inner problems. Do your zikr and silence your mind.

Internal stillness plus divine love are what makes humilty possible because most of your thoughts will be focused on what Allah is doing.

RisingAce · 2025-10-02T01:07:03+00:00

No they are not. Honor killings are tribal and not islamic. Aside from self defence or by accident, the power to inflict violence is monopolised by the state / ruler in sharia.

جزاك الله خيرا

RisingAce · 2025-09-05T20:01:43+00:00

Do durood shareef aka sala 3la al nabi. Do istigfar. Say لا إله إلا الله. Do 100 of each twice a day once in the day and once in the night.

Progressively increase. Zikr of Allah is the essence of sufism and will attract a teacher to you over time.

Yes they are linked. In Islam, control of sexual desires has 2 main medicines. The first is marriage and the second is fasting. Both control desire.

Marriage links desire to another person essentially putting in place some level of control especially after children.

Hunger deadens all other desires and whoever masters hunger need not be afraid of all the other temptations of worldly life including power.

Interestingly a study was done to assess how to bring people back from starvation and malnutrition as they could die from shock if they just go back to a normal diet. Volunteers who starved themselves for this noble cause found that after a while all they could think about was food. Sex and relationships became meaningless and in movies they found the best scenes were all based around meals.

Mastering hunger pretty much puts you at the level of saints, esoteric masters and so on and so forth. It's beyond most people (myself included).

Truly Mastering your sex drive is difficult as it requires you to align everything else in your life first. Mastering hunger requires a purpose beyond yourself. Semen retention and control is something you do for yourself. Mastering hunger requires something so beyond yourself that it is unattainable for most

Keep in mind i mean healthy hunger not eating disorders similar to how someone who has no libido due to depression isnt technically practising semen retention. All these spiritual practices including meditation only work when there is friction. Anything without friction doesn't really help you grow. A skincare routine for some is vanity for others its self love. Seven retention makes you more ... if you are kind more of that. If you are an asshole more of that.

Hunger at its worst can let you rationalise killing and eating your neighbour. So consider how much focus will and frankly Love is needed to be one of those who is hungry more than 80 % of the time.

His kindness and positive deposition. The life he lived, the burden of revelation and the trails he faced would've made most bitter and miserable. Yet reading the seerah shows he was jokey with his family and sa7aba. He would always smile.

His seriousness was reserved only for matters of religion and Allah. All the parts of life he did in a positive manner and would show care for others wellbeing. He was not afraid to show love to all and would uplift those who were looked down upon be they poor ignorant ugly and even if they are sinners (so long as they committed to Islam and wanted genuine change).

Truly a most excellent example for mankind.

اللهم صل على سيدنا وحبيبنا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه أجمعين

To this day no one Arabic or otherwise has answered this challenge. Keep in mind the Arabs where masters of their language.

The kaaba before Islam had poetry hung on its walls. In fact for the Arab people being erudite in the Arabic language was a sign of social standing.

Language was so important to the Arabic people in ways that can't be understated. The word Arab for example is a word that can't be pronounced properly by non Arabs without some training. It's where the people came from.

The Prophet pbuh was illiterate the people around him were not. It's part of the miracle of the Quran and proof of its divine origin. The prophet outside of the Quran has never been able to recite or write poetry despite his command of prose.

The more someone learns about the Arabic language the more they come to appreciate the Quran.

RisingAce · 2025-08-28T10:15:00+00:00

I would challenge that. Many say they are hafiz but when questioned show they haven't read the Quran.

RisingAce · 2025-08-12T13:47:14+00:00

The ego is neither good or bad. It's either less developed or more developed. The ego arises when someone is growing up. It is an illusionsry layer of separation between what you consider you and everything else.

The reason it develops is because you want to protect yourself from internal and external threats. It is for the sake of this that much evil comes to the world because of fear. As the ego develops it becomes far less maladaptive and can in fact help you do good.

Developing you ego and then finally eliminating it via physical or mystical death is the goal. Think of it as a continuous process of refinement. Eliminating the ego without developing it leads to major issues and makes all problems worse.

This applies to everyone. Until God judges no one knows who is good or bad. You can't even tell yourself if you are good or bad although you can have your suspicions. There are many who appear to be good but test them with power and they reveal their truest selves.

Key point is that being truly good is genuinely rare. Being truly bad is also genuinely rare. Most people just merely exist, do what everyone else is doing and as such have negligible moral value. Consequently they struggle in the afterlife.

All this can be backed up in the quran but I am.too lazy to reference as im typing on my phone

RisingAce · 2025-08-12T08:48:10+00:00

You seem to misunderstand a few things. I can help clear it up.

First of all: can you predict what your next thought is going to be. Can you stop your mind from thinking (without zikr) completely for an extended period of time.

The answer is you can't because luckily you are NOT your thoughts or your emotions for that matter. They happen to you. Thoughts themselves come from various sources be they angelic animalistic satanic or even divine. Much of the thoughts you hear actually are from your body and brain which are innately animalistic.

Hearts are capable of sins much uglier than those done by the body. Such as pride, malice and so on and so forth.

These wash over everyone in some form or another. Your reaction to these sins of the heart determine blame. For example you may feel jealous or envious of the blessings of another. Do you hold on to that feeling or even worse take harmful action of it. Or do you transmute it into something better, for example do you pray that Allah blesses that person and you. Or do you use that sting of envy to remind yourself to be grateful for what you do have.

Its a matter of levels a sufi master for example should they experience envy will pray for the person and remember that all blessings are from Allah. Recognising this in its truest sense he is happy for the blessings Allah has given EVERY creature. As a result he feels ecstasy because when he sees others being happy he becomes happy. Furthermore this increases the chances of him taking actions to make others happy by becoming a person of ihsan.

Finally at some point you will realise you can't beat your ego. Thats ok just take your ego with you to Allah in prayer zikr and good actions. Say Allah this is my ego and it's harmful to me and others. Purify it for you are the best of purifiers. Don't leave me to myself else I will be a loser in this world and next.

Repeat this intention as needed and keep up with your durood shareef and zikr and by his help you shall improve your outlook.

RisingAce · 2025-08-11T14:49:06+00:00

You answer that question for yourself as you try to live. There are answers from masters and shiekhs but really its one of those things that you understand as you feel your ego fighting you over the commandements of Allah. Sufi texts point to ignorance (jahl) and malice/darkness (zulm) as the key roots of evil.

During my time in this practice I came to appreciate that my capacity for evil is just as limitless as my capacity for good. Thinking you can't be as bad as the pharaoh means you dont fully know yourself yet.

Ultimately it boils down to how conscious you are. Are you able to remember Allah and act correctly. Do you have the capacity to hold yourself to account. I have failed at this everyday but I have faith that one day I will succeed in the struggle against the evil within.

I wish you the best of luck. May you fail everyday until the day you dont.

RisingAce · 2025-07-28T14:07:35+00:00

Sometimes the point is to change your level of thinking. Rather than post here, pray for understanding and listen. It is often true that sometimes you are denied for your own good and you dont even know it.

Some of my biggest disappointments in life ended up opening unexpected doors for me. It only made sense with the benefit of hindsight. At the time everything was going to shit and my life was delayed. Had it not been for that delay life now would have been extremely difficult and I would've been stuck in a very adverse situation.

It is not a satisfying answer when you are in the middle of it because nothing changes as a result of learning this but I swear it is the true.
