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...

Second wife! The words reverberated through my brain. Why? LETS BE SINCERE:

LETS BE SINCERE: Second wife! The words reverberated through my brain. Why? Am I not good enough? Never! I will never accept a second wife! If you want a second wife you can go out and get one as long as you know that I will not be here when you come back! Those were my words to my husband a few years ago when he mentioned to me that he is intending to marry again a second time. It was a woman recently divorced, 4 children. She is having a hard time, he said, she don't know where the next meal is coming from or how to provide adequately for her children. "Where is their father?" I asked, "Can't he take care of his own kids? Why do you a strange man have to carry another man's burden? Surely there are other ways that you can help her out financially without having to MARRY her! I could not imagine myself in a plural marriage. Sharing my husband with another woman. Sharing his love, his smiles, his jokes with a woman other than myself. I could not fatho...

What to do Before Marrying a Second Wife!

My advice to brothers who are in polygamy or are about to go into it is to please do following for peace and love to reign: Tell the one(s) at home before you go for additional one(s). Please be patient with the wife at home because it's normal to react no matter how little. Jealousy is a natural phenomenon. Increase the gifts towards the first wife. Like servicing her car, fueling the car buying her airtime and other good things. Do these with no intention of receiving thanks and do not be frustrated and stop doing them. Continue doing these. You may even get insults like "Are you doing all these because of the new wife?". All these should not bother you as a man. The scenario of accepting another wife is like beating someone and telling her not to cry. It's either you stop the beating or you tolerate the tears and  cries. When you bring in another wife, it's like giving the wife at home some serious beating. So as a man expect reactions and be re...
