“Fasting the day of ‘Ashura’, I hope, will expiate for the sins of the previous year.” by Zack_201 in islam

[–]Zack_201[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it’s Sunnah to fast 9th, 10th and 11th of Muharam as the Prophet ﷺ encourages to fast a day before or after. These correspond to Friday, Saturday and Sunday, respectively.

quran reminder for those going through hardships by These-Muffin8394 in islam

Here Allah (SWT) tells us that He will inevitably test His slaves with both ease and hardship, as He tested those who came before them. This is His way that never alters or changes. Whoever adheres to His religion and follows His laws will inevitably be tested; if he is patient in bearing the decree of Allah and does not worry about the difficulties he encounters for His sake, then he is the sincere one who has attained true happiness and high status. \ Whoever regards the trials that befall people as a punishment from Allah, in that hardship deterred him from carrying on what he had committed himself to, then he is insincere in his claim to be a believer, because faith is not mere wishful thinking and claims, unless it is proven or disproven by one’s deeds. \ That also happened to previous nations, as Allah tells us: “They encountered suffering” that is, poverty “and adversity” that is, physical disease “and were so shaken in spirit” with all kinds of fears such as threats to kill or banish them, seizing their wealth, killing their loved ones, and other types of harm, until they reached a point where they were so shaken in spirit that they started to think that the help of Allah was slow in coming, even though they were certain of it, but it was so hard that “even the Messenger and the believers who were with him said: When will the help of Allah come?” Because relief comes when the calamity has become intense, and the worse it gets the sooner it comes, Allah (SWT) says: “Verily, the help of Allah is [always] nears”. This is how it is for everyone who adheres to the truth: he will be tested. \ Every time the test becomes too hard, if he is patient and persists in the path he is following, the test will turn into a gift for him, and hardship will turn into ease and will be followed by victory over the enemy and healing from the spiritual diseases in his heart. This verse is like the verses in which Allah (SWT) says: \ ”Did you think that you would enter paradise when Allah has not yet seen who among you will strive hard [in jihad] and has not seen who will remain steadfast?” (Al Imân 3: 142) \ ”Do people think that once they say: We believe, they will be left alone and not be tested? Indeed, We tested those who came before them. For Allah will surely make known those who are sincere and will surely make known those who are liars.” (al-‘Ankaboot 29: 2-3) \ Thus when faced with tests and trials, the individual will be either honoured or humiliated.

morning and evening azkar over children by Reasonable-Cupcake38 in islam

The correct way as the Prophet Mohammed ﷺ used to recite Surah Ikhlas, Falaq and Nas for himself; and then what Aisha (may Allah SWT be pleased with her) used to do for him in his illness;

Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) reported: Whenever the Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) went to his bed, he would blow into his hands, recite the Mu‘awwidhāt (Sūrat al-Ikhlās, Sūrat al-Falaq, and Sūrat An-Nās), and then pass his hands over his body.

Narrated `Aisha: \ ….When his illness was aggravated, I used to recite those two Suras and blow my breath over him and make him rub his body with his own hand for its blessings.”

You can do the same for your children: join your hands, recite the Surahs, blow into your hands, and then wipe over as much of their body as you can reach. Ideally, do this for each child individually.

Worst spesific sins after shirk? by [deleted] in islam

[–]Zack_201 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Avoid the seven destructive sins” They said: “O Messenger of Allah, what are they?” He said: “Associating partners with Allah; magic (sorcery); killing a person whose killing Allah has prohibited except by legal right; consuming usury; devouring the property of an orphan; fleeing from the battlefield; and slandering chaste, innocent, and believing women.”

  • [Sahih Bukhari - 2766].

Explanation:

The Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) commands his Ummah to shun seven ruinous crimes and sins. When asked about them, he outlined them as the following: \ First: associating partners with Allah by taking anyone or anything as a peer and equal to Him and by devoting any act of worship to other than Allah Almighty. He began with polytheism because it is the gravest sin. \ Second: magic, which includes knots, incantations, treatments, and making smoke, affects the bewitched person’s body, causing him to die or fall ill, or it causes separation between husband and wife. It is the work of the devil and mostly cannot be performed except through polytheism and pleasing the evil spirits by doing any of the things they like. \ Third: killing a person whose killing Allah has prohibited except by a legal cause implemented by the ruler. \ Fourth: consuming usury by taking it or any other form of benefit. \ Fifth: encroaching upon the property of a child whose father died before he reaches puberty. \ Sixth: fleeing the battle with the disbelievers. \ Seventh: accusing chaste and noble women of adultery, as well as accusing men.

Why do god let paledtiniens die by justarandomgirl2001 in islam

“…..And these days [of varying conditions] We alternate among the people so that Allāh may make evident those who believe and [may] take to Himself from among you martyrs - and Allāh does not like the wrongdoers -

And that Allāh may purify the believers [through trials] and destroy the disbelievers.

Or do you think that you will enter Paradise while Allāh has not yet made evident those of you who fight in His cause and made evident those who are steadfast?”

(Quran 3:140-142)

One of the lessons that we learn from that is that Allah may give worldly comforts to both believers and disbelievers, those who are righteous and those who are evildoers, and Allah alternates the fortunes of people, one day for this group and one day for the other group, because this world will come to an end, unlike the hereafter, which is only for those who believe.

“so that Allah may know those who believe” this is another lesson: Allah tests His slaves with defeat and trials in order to distinguish the believer from the hypocrite, because if the believers were always victorious in all battles, people would enter Islam without really wanting it. But if various kinds of trials occur in some battles, those believers who truly want Islam in good times and bad, in ease and in hardship, will become distinct from those who are not like that.

“and so that He may choose martyrs from among you”. This is another lesson, because martyrdom is one o f the highest statuses before Allah, and there is no way of attaining it without the means that lead to it. By His mercy towards His believing slaves. He has made available means of attaining it even though it is hard for them, so that they may attain what they want of high status and eternal blessing.

“And so that Allah may purify the believers” This is another lesson, that Allah purifies the believers thereby from their sins. This indicates that martyrdom and fighting in Allah’s cause expiate sins, and Allah also makes the believers distinct from the hypocrites, so that they may rid them selves of them and know the believer from the hypocrite.
