We Learn So Many Things But Do Not Act On Them.


NEGLIGENCE; 

We Learn So Many Things But Do Not Act On Them.
1 We have learnt that, if we say "Subhanallaah Wa Bihamdihii"  a hundred times, our sins will be forgiven, even if they were as much as the foam of the sea. 

Yet, so many days and nights pass us by and we do NOT say these words.
2. We have learnt that, two Rak'ahs of Salaatu-Duhaa outweigh 360 acts of Sadaqah.
Yet, so many days and nights pass us by and we do NOT observe Salatul-Duhaa.

3. We have learnt that, whoever voluntarily fast for a single day in the path of Allaah , Allaah will distance his face from the fire by seven trenches and also distance his face from the fire by seventy Khareefs. Yet, we do NOT observe voluntary fasting.
4. We are aware that, whoever visits a sick person will have 70,000 angels follow him as he returns home, seeking Allah's forgiveness for him.
Yet, we have NOT visited the sick this week

5. We have learnt that, whoever prays upon a dead Muslim and follows the corpse to the grave until it is buried will have two Qiiraats of reward; and a Qiiraat is similar to the size of Mount Uhud.
Yet, so many weeks pass us by and we do NOT go to observe the Salatul Janaazah on our dead brethren.

6. We have learnt that, whoever builds a Masjid for Allah, even if it is the size of a bird's nest, Allah will build a house for him in Paradise.
Yet, we do NOT contribute towards the building of Masjids; even if it is with as little as 10 Naira.

7. We have learnt that, the one who helps a widow and her orphans is like the Mujahid fighting in the path of Allaah or like the fasting person who doesn't break his fast at all or like the one who spends the entire night doing Tahajjud and doesn't sleep at all. Yet, we do NOT partake in the assistance of widows and their helpless orphans.

8. We have learnt that whoever recites a single letter from the Qur'an will get a Hasannah, and a Hasanah is recorded in ten folds. Yet, we do NOT bother to recite the Qur'an everyday.

9. We have learnt that, the one who performs Hajj-Mabruur will be rewarded with none other than Paradise and will be recompensed by returning back to his homeland, just as the day his mother gave birth to him (i.e. with a clean slate of sins; all his sins washed away). Yet, we do NOT bother to fulfill the rites of Hajj, worse for those who have the means, despite the fact that the rites are easy and have been simplified for us.

10. We have learnt that, the honor of a believer is in his getting up to pray Tahajjud at night, and that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him, his household and companions) were never negligent of observing Tahajjud all through their lives, even though they were pre-occupied with seeking for their livelihoods, and in spreading the religion of Allah. Yet, we are extremely negligent in this aspect of worship

11. We have learnt that, the Day of Judgement is surely approaching; without any doubt, and that Allaah will surely raise the occupants of the graves. Yet, we do NOT prepare for this Great Day.

12. We bury the dead and pray Janaazah upon them. Yet, we act heedlessly, as though such a day is NOT meant for us. Know now, right now my brother and sister that even as you read this reminder, every single breath you take in reading this moves you closer to your appointed TIME;
So, glad tidings to the one who reads these words, understands them, and HASTENS to WORK with them ...
And may Allah (SWT) reward the one who shares this with others.
MAY ALLAH GRANT US UNDERSTANDING!!!
Aameen.
Assalamu Alaikum.

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...
