TAQWA (Explain to your children how Taqwa is the major part of our Religion and how to instill in our lives.)



Explain to your children how Taqwa is the major part of our Religion and how to instill in our lives.

What is Taqwa?

Taqwa is not only about Manners,
Taqwa is not about looking Islamic,
Taqwa is not about sporting a beard or wearing a Hijab,
Taqwa is not about appearance.

BUT

Taqwa is when you miss a prayer, you feel uneasy the whole day.
Taqwa is when you speak a lie, you feel bad.
Taqwa is the guilt that fellows when you hurt someone knowingly or unknowingly.
Taqwa is the shame and regret that follows a sin you committed knowing well how it stands in sight of Allah.
Taqwa is when you cannot sleep after disobeying or disrespecting your parents.
Taqwa is to cry in the depths of nigth fearing none but the one above the Arsh.
Taqwa is the fear that refrains us from sinning when nobody familiar is around.
Taqwa is the guts and the will to please Allah, even when the whole world is hell bent on displeasing Him.
Taqwa is to wear that beard and Hijab for the sole reason of pleasing our Creator and to keep it on as per Sunnah.
Taqwa is to stay happy and smiling, knowing that this world is a prison for believers.
Taqwa is the good manners and character we practice for the sake of Allah.
Taqwa is the struggle to better ourselves according to Islam, with each passing day.
Taqwa is not just about rising in Deen, but about falling, rising again and never letting go!
Taqwa is all about what is in OUR HEARTS.

And if our hearts are filled with proper Taqwa, then actions automatically fellow... and the sweetness of these actions is fulfilling!

Steps on how to perform the purification bath (Ghusl/Jannabat) in Islam. *Rules Regarding Ghusl and Wet Dreams for Men and Women*

*BED ~ WETTING & GUSL ~ JANABAH* *Rules Regarding Ghusl and Wet Dreams for Men and Women* *Q u e s t i o n s:* (1) I have learned that if a women who has reached puberty has an erotic dream and sees some discharge afterwards, she has to make Ghusl. (2) If she sees discharge alone without remembering a dream, she would also have to take Ghusl. But if she remembers only the dream without seeing discharge, she doesn’t have to take Ghusl. (3) What if a women constantly has discharge? How does she know when to take Ghusl and when not? (4) Can u briefly explain the step by step way of performing Gusl Janabah according to Sunnah? *R E S P O N S E* بسم الله الرحمان الرحيم *With regards to wet dreams, men and women have the similar rulings.* *So, if a man or woman has a wet dream and he/she sees wetness/discharge they are obliged to make Ghusl, even if they are not certain the wetness is from an ejaculation/orgasm. In other words, even if he/she has constant di...

CHOOSING MY PARTNER ON SOCIAL MEDIA

*CHOOSING MY PARTNER ON SOCIAL MEDIA* *(An Admonition To Today's Youth)* I think you need to give a thought to this reminder, Allah bless you. Please be careful what you see in the distance for it may not look the same when it gets closer. Do not promise marriage to the person you just met on social media because sometimes you will be taken in by our posts only to realize that it's all 'cut and paste'. Many would-be couples have ran away because after meeting the partner they realized that this is not what they bargained for. Do not forget, appearances are deceptive. This person may post beautiful articles on Facebook with thousand likes and hundreds of comments but at the end of the day you find him as a dull and unintelligent man. Furthermore, many immoral persons may post Eeman-filled advices on Facebook and WhatsApp (If you see their prowess on WhatsApp pages you may even think they are the Mufti of Makkah) only to turn out to be irresponsible peop...

Everyone is running their own RACE, in their own TIME. Don’t be violent or mean to yourself for no reason other than just because your path is different from the person’s path beside you.

*TIME IS SOMETHING* She is married at the age of 21. - Oh and I’m still single at 35. She’s momming three kids. - Oh and I am 10 years married and have none. She is a manager in an international company. - Oh, we graduated together and I am still jobless. She travels the world . - Oh and I have never been abroad. Job title, income, grades, house, and Instagram and Facebook  likes—the number of categories in which we can compare ourselves to others are infinite. Where is it expected from you to be a doctor or engineer, get married by 21 and have mortgaged house and 3 kids by 26. RELAX. You’re not LATE. You’re not EARLY. Everyone is running their own RACE, in their own TIME. Don’t be violent or mean to yourself for no reason other than just because your path is different from the person’s path beside you. Be your own cheerleader. Stop comparing yourself with others and instead refocus all that energy internally and focus on how you can become the best ve...
