ISLAM THE SOLUTION TO MANKIND

Narrated Aisha (RA): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Such a person as recites the Qur'an and masters it by heart, will be with the noble righteous scribes (in Heaven). And such a person exerts himself to learn the Qur'an by heart, and recites it with great difficulty, will have a double reward." (Sahih al-Bukhari, Book 65, Hadith 4937)

Anas b. Malik (RA) reported that Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) said: It would be said to the non-believers on the Day of Resurrection: If you were to possess gold, filling the whole earth, would you like to secure your freedom by paying that? He would say: Yes. Thereupon it would be said to him: Something easier (than this) was demanded from you (but you paid no heed to it). (Sahih Muslim, Book 52, Hadith 39) Isn’t this so profound? Turn to Allah before you return to Allah. Don’t forget to forward our daily emails to your friends and family too! 

Hudhaifah (RA) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: "Do not let yourselves be 'yes-men', saying: 'If the people are good then we will be good, and if they are wrong then we will be wrong. 'Rather, make up your own minds, if the people are good then you are good, and if they are evil, then do not behave unjustly." (Jami`at-Tirmidhi, Vol. 4, Book 27, Hadith 113)

It was narrated from Ibn Abi Sa'eed Al-Khudri (RA) that his father said: "I passed by the Prophet (peace be upon him) when he was performing Wudu' from the well of Buda'ah. I said: 'Are you performing Wudu' from it when garbage is thrown into it?' He said: 'Water is not made impure by anything.'" (Sunan an-Nasa'i, Book 2, Hadith 3)

Narrated Abu Huraira (RA): Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) said, "If any one of you improve (follows strictly) his Islamic religion then his good deeds will be rewarded ten times to seven hundred times for each good deed and a bad deed will be recorded as it is." (Sahih al-Bukhari, Vol. 1, Book 2, Hadith 35)

It was narrated from Salamah bin ‘Ubaidullah bin Mihsan Al-Ansari (RA) that his father said: “The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: ‘Whoever among you wakes up physically healthy, feeling safe and secure within himself, with food for the day, it is as if he acquired the whole world.’”  (Sunan Ibn Majah, Vol. 5, Book 37, Hadith 4280) This is a blessing, many of us take for granted every single day…

A’ishah (RA) narrated that The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: “When a woman gives some of the foodstuff (which she has in her house) in charity without being extravagant (without being wasteful), she will receive the reward for what she has spent, and her husband will receive the reward because of his earning, and the keeper (if any) will be similarly rewarded. The reward of one will not decrease the reward of the others.” Agreed upon. (Bulugh al-Maram, Book 4, Hadith 637) Allah’s reward for US is truly unlimited. It all depends on our intentions. You could have the sincere intention to do something absolutely amazing, and something happens and you weren’t able to carry out that good deed, but you’ll still be rewarded :) How amazing is our Lord. Say Alhamdulillah!

It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar (RA): That the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: “If anyone of you is invited to a wedding feast, let him accept.” (Sunan Ibn Majah, Book 9, Hadith 1989) Attending weddings can be a wonderful occasion but it’s important to be sensible and not to spend too much on a single day’s celebration.

It was narrated from Ibn Abbas (RA) that: the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: “There is nothing like marriage, for two who love one another.” (Sunan Ibn Majah, Book 9, Hadith 1920) What an adorable Hadith Masha’Allah!

It was narrated from Aishah (RA) that: The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: “Marriage is part of my sunnah, and whoever does not follow my sunnah has nothing to do with me. Get married, for I will boast of your great numbers before the nations. Whoever has the means, let him get married, and whoever does not, then he should fast for it will diminish his desire.” (Sunan Ibn Majah, Vol. 3, Book 9, Hadith 1846)

Narrated Abu Huraira (RA): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "If Allah loves a person, He calls Gabriel saying: 'Allah loves so and so; O Gabriel, love him.' Gabriel would love him, and then Gabriel would make an announcement among the residents of the Heaven, 'Allah loves so-and-so, therefore, you should love him also.' So, all the residents of the Heavens would love him and then he is granted the pleasure of the people of the earth." (Sahih al-Bukhari, Vol. 8, Book 78, Hadith 70) Isn’t this absolutely beautiful? Imagine being that particular person, the very person whom Allah loves and then Allah Himself, tells Jibraeel and Jibraeel then announces it to the world. Alhamdulillah . May Allah make us among these blessed people. Join us to say Ameen and we hope this Hadith brought a smile to your face :)

Abu Hurayra (RA) reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him), said, "The worst of my community are those who speak a lot, those who are diffuse in speech and those who fill their mouth with words. The best of my community are the best of them in character." (Al-Adab Al-Mufrad, Book 1, Hadith 1308) Did you know the Prophet (peace be upon him) used to seek forgiveness over 70 times a day. When was the last time you seeked forgiveness? Say Astagfirullah

Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Amr (RA): A man asked the Prophet (peace be upon him), "What Islamic traits are the best?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Feed the people, and greet those whom you know and those whom you do not know." (Sahih Bukhari, Vol. 8, Book 74, Hadith 253)

'Abdullah ibn 'Amr (RA) was heard to say to a nephew of his who had left al-Waht, "Are your workers at work?" "I don't know," he replied. He said, "If you were clever, you would work as your workers work." Then he turned towards us and said, "When a man works with his workers in his house (and Abu 'Asim once said, 'in his property'), he is one of the workers of Allah Almighty." (Al-Adab Al-Mufrad, Book 25, Hadith 7)

An-Nawas bin Sama'an (RA) narrated that a man came asking the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) about righteousness and sin. So the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Righteouness is good behaviour, and sin is what fluctuates in your chest, and you would hate that the people discovered it about you." (Jami`at-Tirmidhi, Vol. 4, Book 36, Hadith 86)

Narrated `Aisha (RA): A man said to the Prophet (peace be upon him), "My mother died suddenly, and I think that if she could speak, she would have given in charity. May I give in charity on her behalf?" He said, "Yes! Give in charity on her behalf." (Sahih al-Bukhari, Book 55, Hadith 23) A great lesson for us all. If you know someone who has passed away, give charity on their behalf so it benefits them and also you too.

Abu Dharr (RA) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: "Your smiling in the face of your brother is charity, commanding good and forbidding evil is charity, your giving directions to a man lost in the land is charity for you. Your seeing for a man with bad sight is a charity for you, your removal of a rock, a thorn or a bone from the road is charity for you. Your pouring what remains from your bucket into the bucket of your brother is charity for you." (Jami`at-Tirmidhi, Book 27, Hadith 62)

Abu Hurairah (RA) reported: Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said, "Wealth does not diminish by giving Sadaqah (charity). Allah augments the honour of one who forgives; and one who serves another seeking the pleasure of Allah, Allah will exalt him in ranks." (Riyad as-Salihin, Book 1, Hadith 603)

Abu Huraira (RA) reported Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) as saying: Charity does not in any way decrease the wealth and the servant who forgives Allah adds to his respect, and the one who shows humility Allah elevates him in the estimation (of the people).  (Sahih Muslim, Book 45, Hadith 90) How beautiful. Charity does not decrease wealth, but it actually increases it! If you give to a good cause, Allah will give you more, so today don’t forget to donate to the Indonesia earthquake victims above and help people who have lost absolutely everything they ever had.  

It was narrated from Khawlah bint Hakim (RA) that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “If anyone of you, when he stops to camp (while on a journey), says A’udhu bi kalimatil-lahit-tammati min sharri ma khalaq (I seek refuge in the Perfect Words of Allah from the evil of that which He has created), then nothing will harm him in that place until he moves on.” (Sunan Ibn Majah, Vol. 4, Book 31, Hadith 3676)

Abu Dharr (RA) is reported as saying, "Your putting some of the water from your bucket in your brother's bucket is sadaqa. Your removing stones, thorns and bones from people's path is sadaqa. Your guiding a man in a place where there are no guides is sadaqa." (Al-Adab Al-Mufrad, Book 38, Hadith 4)

Narrated Abu Ayyub al-Ansari (RA): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: The witr is a duty for every Muslim so if anyone wishes to observe it with five rak'ahs, he may do so; if anyone wishes to observe it with three, he may do so, and if anyone wishes to observe it with one, he may do so. (Sunan Abi Dawud, Book 8, Hadith 1417)

It was narrated (RA) said: "I heard my paternal aunt say: 'The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said; "Whoever among you is appointed to a position of authority. If Allah wills good for him. He will give him a righteous minister who will remind him if he forgets and help him if he remembers. (Sunan an-Nasa'i, Vol. 5, Book 39, Hadith 56) Remember when the Prophet (SAW) passed away? Abu Bakr (RA) did not push to become a leader, he did not try to lobby or convince/persuade people he wanted to become the leader. He was chosen by the people. He was the best choice at the time. But he knew being the leader came with great responsibility. This is a lesson for us all…

Abu Huraira (RA) reported: I heard Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) as saying: There is no divination but the best type is the good omen. It was said to Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him): What is good omen? Thereupon he said: A good word which one of you hears.  (Sahih Muslim, Book 39, Hadith 150)

'Anas (RA) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: "When Allah wants good for a slave, He puts him in action." It was said: "How does he put him in action O Messenger Of Allah (peace be upon him)?" He said: "By making him meet up with the righteous deeds before death." (Jami`at-Tirmidhi, Vol. 4, Book 32, Hadith 2292)

It was narrated from Aisha (RA) that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: "The one who is proficient with the Qur'an will be with the noble and righteous scribes (the angels), and the one who reads it and stumbles over it, finding it difficult, will have a double reward." (Sunan Ibn Majah, Vol. 5, Book 33, Hadith 124)

It was narrated from Ibn Abi Sa'eed Al-Khudri (RA) that his father said: "I passed by the Prophet (peace be upon him) when he was performing Wudu' from the well of Buda'ah. I said: 'Are you performing Wudu' from it when garbage is thrown into it?' He said: 'Water is not made impure by anything.'" (Sunan an-Nasa'i, Book 2, Hadith 3) 

'Abdullah bin 'Umar (RA) narrated: "A man came to the Prophet (peace be upon him) and said: 'O Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him)! How many times should the servant be pardoned?' The Prophet (peace be upon him) was silent. Then he said: 'O Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him)! How many times should the servant be pardoned?' He said: ' Seventy times each day.'" (Jami`at-Tirmidhi, Book 27, Hadith 55)
