Allah's help comes through different ways

 Sometimes the help of Allah comes in ways we least expect it.  - It comes in the form of difficulty when we are expecting ease - It comes in the form of having to work when we are hoping for relief from all and any work.  Don’t doubt the help of Allah is there. It is. Just not in ways we want, but in ways that Allah knows is best for us.  Help came to Yusuf (a) in the well, not in the form of a kind hearted rescuer who delivered him into the loving embrace of his father, but in the form of a caravan that sold him into slavery for a few coins.                                                                     It came to Maryam (a) when she was in the pain of childbirth, not in the form of her pain being taken away, but her having to shake the trunk of the date palm tree.  The path forward is through toil. The help of Allah does not mean that we sit back and watch our wishes come true.  Allah wants to give us far more than what we want for ourselves. This is why the journey to the end

Brilliant aspects of life of the Companions

   💐 Sayyida Rafidah Ansariyyah Radiyallahu Anha  Spending your husband's wealth without his permission and making a name for yourself on it will be considered cheating.  💫 You should highlight your  strengths/ qualities.  💫 One should always keep oneself busy in any work due to which something good will be written in our deeds.  💫 The world is a place of work, not of rest, and a believer works instead of making excuses, and if he cannot work, he asks for forgiveness.  💫Tawfiq comes from Allah, which should be prayed for at all times.  💫 No matter how difficult the situation is, don't be disappointed in life  So, pray to your Lord and seek forgiveness.   💫 There is also a way to pray, pray with a purpose.  💫Don't do a good deed and expect people to appreciate it.  💫 Taking care of someone who is sick is much better.  💫 The fear of Allah should also increase with the increase of knowledge, not that the power of knowledge should lead to arrogance in a person and end

The HouseWife's Lament

 Money is tight. The kids are demanding. Skin is raw from all the cooking, cleaning and chores that have to be done every day. There’s absolutely no time to spare for anything else, whether it’s pursuing further education or volunteering for a special cause Does this sound familiar? There are Muslim women all over the world who find themselves at home, living life as domestic stay-at-home mums and housewives. It’s a physically and emotionally demanding job and it’s also a pretty thankless one. How can spending all day serving others, instead of being involved in some kind of noble, public cause, ever be truly fulfilling and worth recognition – not just by people, but by Allah (Subhaanahu Wata'ala) Himself? Fatimah bint Muhammad is known to be one of the four most perfect women in the entire world. “Prophet Muhammad (Salallaahu Alaihi Wasalaam) drew four lines and said to the Companions, “Do you know what these are?” They said, “Allah and His Messenger know best.” He said, “The best

Sufferings of this world !

 Why does Allaah allow suffering when He is the Most Merciful?🌷 by Asma bint Shameem  Earthquakes. Floods. Famine. Sicknesses.  Subhaan Allaah, we see such suffering and we wonder… Why is this happening? Why are there these calamities? Why does Allaah let this happen? Isn’t He ar-Rahmaan, the Most Merciful? It just doesn’t “make sense “! But as a Muslim, we must remember that not everything we see around us has to “make sense”.  Rather, whatever happens is with the decree of Allaah and there’s KHAIR in it, even if we don’t see it or understand it.  Yes we feel sorry when we see people suffering of sicknesses, or dying of hunger or being killed in earthquakes or floods or other disasters.  But we must also remember that as Muslims, part of our Imaan is to believe that our Rabb, Allaah Subhaanahu wa Ta’aala is Most Loving, and Most Fair.  Most Wise and Most Merciful.  It’s not enough to just believe that Allaah exists; rather it is EQUALLY important to KNOW and TRULY BELIEVE that Allaah

 The Advice Of Al-Fudayl Ibn ‘Iyād Al-Fudayl Ibn I’yād رحمه الله said to a man, “How many years have come upon you?” The man replied, “60 years.” Al-Fudayl then said, “So for 60 years you have been travelling to meet your Lord and you are on the verge of arriving.” So the man said, “Indeed to Allāh we belong and to Him we shall return.” Al-Fudayl said, “Do you know the meaning of this statement? You are saying that you are a servant of Allāh and to Him you shall return. So, whomsoever is aware that he is a servant of Allāh, then let him know that he will stand before Him. And whomsoever is aware that he will stand before Him, then let him know that he will be questioned. And whomsoever is aware that he will be questioned, then let him prepare an answer to the questions.”  So the man said, “What is the solution to this?” Al-Fudayl replied, “Easy. Be righteous in what remains of your life and you will be forgiven for what has passed, for indeed if you incur evil in what remains (no repen

 Heart touching story of Abu Bakr ( RA)💗 “You brought me dates, and you did not remove the seeds from them.” What is the secret behind the popularity of this phrase and who said it?  ‘Umar bin al-Khattab's (رضي الله عنه) attention was drawn to the fact that Abu Bakr (رضي الله عنه) went out to the outskirts of Madinah after Fajr prayer, entered a small house for hours, and then he goes to his own house. And ‘Umar (رضي الله عنه) knew everything that Abu Bakr (رضي الله عنه) was doing except for the secret of this house. Days passed and the Caliph of the Believers (رضي الله عنه) is still visiting this house.  ‘Umar (رضي الله عنه) still did not know what Abu Bakr was doing inside, so ‘Umar (رضي الله عنه) decided to enter the house after Abu Bakr (رضي الله عنه) left, so that he can see with his eyes what is inside, and know what Abu Bakr does after the Fajr prayer. When ‘Umar (رضي الله عنه) entered this little house, he found a decrepit old woman who could not move and had no one, and t
