ISLAM THE SOLUTION TO MANKIND

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah (RA) that: the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: "There is a kind of protective jealousy that Allah loves and a kind that Allah hates. As for that which Allah loves, it is protective jealousy when there are grounds for suspicion. And as for that which He hates, it is protective jealousy when there are no grounds for suspicion." (Sunan Ibn Majah, Book 9, Hadith 2074)

The position of the hands being parallel to the ears is mentioned in this lovely hadith: It was narrated from Malik bin Al-Huwairith (RA) said: "I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), when he started to pray, raise his hands, and when he bowed, and when he raised his head from bowing, until they were parallel with the top of his ears." (Sunan an-Nasa'i, Book 11, Hadith 6)

Abu Bakr bin Qais Al-Ash'ari (RA) narrated that his father said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: 'Two gardens of silver, their vessels and everything in them; and two gardens of gold, their vessels and everything in them, and nothing between the people and their seeing their Lord, the Blessed and Exalted, except the Veil of Pride covering His Face in the Garden of Eden (Jannat 'Adn)." (Sunan Ibn Majah, Book 1, Hadith 191)

It was narrated that Ibn Abi Awfa (RA) said: "The Prophet (peace be upon him) used to say: 'Allahumma tahhirni bith-thalji wal-barad wal-ma' al-barid, Allahumma tahhirni min adh-dhunub kama yutahhar ath-thawb al-abyad min ad-danas (O Allah, purify me with snow and hail and cold water, O Allah, purify me of sin as a white garment is cleansed of dirt)." (Sunan an-Nasa'i, Book 4, Hadith 8)

Narrated Ibn `Abbas (RA): The Prophet (peace be upon him) was cupped while he was fasting. (Bukhari, Vol. 7, Book 71, Hadith 597) Thank you for being a member of our global community and have a blessed day and just before you go, say Alhamdulillah and start your day by earning blessings

Abu Hurairah RA reported: The Messenger of Allah (sallallaahu ’alayhi wa sallam) said, "The best day on which the sun has risen is Friday. On that day Adam was created, he was admitted to Jannah, and he was expelled therefrom." (Muslim)

Narrated Ibn `Umar (RA): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Do not swear by your fathers; and whoever wants to swear should swear by Allah." (Bukhari, Vol. 9, Book 93, Hadith 498) _An important reminder about only taking a vow by Allah and not anyone else, only Allah is infallible._

Narrated Asma (RA): (the daughter of Abu Bakr) Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) has cursed such a lady as artificially lengthening (her or someone else's) hair or gets her hair lengthened. (Bukhari, Vol. 7, Book 72, Hadith 819)

Abu Hurairah (RA) said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: 'The guests of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, are three: The warrior, the pilgrim performing Hajj, and the pilgrim performing 'Umrah.'" (Sunan an-Nasa'i, Book 25, Hadith 37) Always have the intention of making the sacred pilgrimage, may Allah accept your efforts and bless you all.

'Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Allah created Adam in His picture, sixty cubits (about 30 meters) in height. When He created him, He said (to him), "Go and greet that group of angels sitting there, and listen what they will say in reply to you, for that will be your greeting and the greeting of your offspring." Adam (went and) said, 'As-Salamu alaikum (Peace be upon you).' They replied, 'AsSalamu-'Alaika wa Rahmatullah (Peace and Allah's Mercy be on you) So they increased 'Wa Rahmatullah' The Prophet added 'So whoever will enter Paradise, will be of the shape and picture of Adam Since then the creation of Adam's (offspring) (i.e. stature of human beings is being diminished continuously) to the present time." (Bukhari Vol. 8, Book 74, Hadith 246)

Narrated Abu Musa (RA): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "The example of the one who celebrates the Praises of his Lord (Allah) in comparison to the one who does not celebrate the Praises of his Lord, is that of a living creature compared to a dead one." (Sahih al-Bukhari 6, Book 80, Hadith 102) Dhikr is something you can do wherever you are and at any time. Do not neglect this simple practice and know that the heart that constantly remembers Allah is remembered by Allah. May Allah swt keep our tongues moist and hearts full with His remembrance.

Abu Malik at-Ash'ari (RA) reported: The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: Cleanliness is half of faith and al-Hamdu Liliah (Praise be to Allah) fills the scale, and Subhan Allah (Glory be to Allah) and al-Hamdu Liliah (Praise be to Allah) fill up what is between the heavens and the earth, and prayer is a light, and charity is proof (of one's faith) and endurance is a brightness and the Holy Qur'an is a proof on your behalf or against you. All men go out early in the morning and sell themselves, thereby setting themselves free or destroying themselves. (Sahih Muslim, Book 2, Hadith 1)

It was narrated from Hakim bin Mu'awiyah (RA) that his paternal uncle Mikhmar bin Mu'awiyah (RA) said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) say: 'Do not believe in omens, and good fortune is only to be found in three things: A woman, a horse and a house."' (Sunan Ibn Majah, Book 9, Hadith)

Narrated `Abdullah (RA): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Whoever has to take an oath should swear by Allah or remain silent." (i.e. He should not swear by other than Allah). (Bukhari Vol. 3, Book 48, Hadith 844)

Narrated Abu Huraira (RA): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "There is no disease that Allah has created, except that He also has created its treatment." (Bukhari, Vol. 7, Book 71, Hadith 582) Another beautiful reminder to never give up hope and always turn to Allah. Every ailment has a cure, may Allah bless and give shifaa to all those with illnesses Ameen!

It was narrated from Salman that the: Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Your Lord is Kind and Most Generous, and is too kind to let His slave, if he raises his hands to Him, bring them back empty," or he said "frustrated." (Sunan Ibn Majah, Book 34, Hadith 39) No prayer is in vain. How blessed are we that Allah answers every prayer with either what you desire or something better in the next life. Unanswered prayers are only unanswered to the one who asks and is blind to the response. Maybe there is something better for you or for someone else? Never hesitate to ask your Lord and live in hope of His response. SubhanAllah!

Narrated Al-Mughira bin Shu`ba (RA): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Some of my followers will remain victorious (and on the right path) till the Last Day comes, and they will still be victorious." (Sahih al-Bukhari, Vol.4, Book 61, Hadith 144)

Narrated Ibn `Umar (RA): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "A man should not make another man get up from his (the latter's) seat (in a gathering) in order to sit there. (Bukhari Vol. 8, Book 74, Hadith 286)

It was narrated that Mu'adhbin Jabal (RA) said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) took my hand and said: 'I love you, O Mu'adh!'

Then the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: 'Never forget to say in every prayer: Rabbi a'inni 'ala dhikrika wa shukrika wa husni 'ibadatik (My Lord, help me to remember You, give thanks to You and worship You well.)" (Sunan an-Nasa'I, Book 13, Hadith 125) It's Friday today. Have you read Surah Al Kahf?

Narrated Abu Huraira (RA): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "When the Imam says 'Ameen', then you should all say 'Ameen', for the angels say 'Ameen' at that time, and he whose 'Ameen' coincides with the 'Ameen' of the angels, all his past sins will be forgiven." (Sahih al-Bukhari, Book 80, Hadith 97) Alhamdulillah! Always be ready to say Ameen to the duas of others, remember if you pray for another Muslim, the angels ask the same for you. Earn forgiveness and blessings just from saying Ameen.
