Ironic that US is worried about immigration whilst directly being complicit in supporting an occupation and genocide that has been there for past 80 years!

Also why we forget that nations like US, Australia and NewZealand were formed upon the genocide, destruction and mass enslavement of the inhabitants of these lands.

People who are the greatest enemies of justice are having the audacity to dictate morality to others!

This dua is very popular in Kashmir especially during Fajr prayers.

ﺍﮮ ﺧﺎﻟﻖ ﮨﺮ ﺑﻠﻨﺪﯼ ﻭ ﭘﺴﺘﯽ

ﺷﺶ ﭼﯿﺰ ﻋﻄﺎ ﺑﮑﻦ ﺯ ﮨﺴﺘﯽ

ﺍﯾﻤﺎﻥ ﻭ ﺍﻣﺎﻥ ﺗﻨﺪﺭﺳﺘﯽ

ﻋﻠﻢ ﻭ ﻋﻤﻞ ﻓﺮﺍغ ﺩﺳﺘﯽ

"Oh the creator of every high and low of the world

Grant me six favours from your grace

Faith, Contentment and Strength

Knowledge, Practicality and Prosperity"

The best migration is from a life of sin to the life of Taqwa.

“The most beneficial remedy is that you preoccupy yourself with thoughts of what should concern you and not those that should not concern you. Thinking about what does not matter to you is the door of every evil. Whoever reflects upon what does not concern him, then he will miss what does concern him.”

Imam Ibnul Qayyim

[Al-Fawa‌id 1/175]

‎“The best and most virtuous of days of all for the slave is the day he repents to Allāh and Allāh accepts his repentance.”

[Imam IbnUl Qayyim Al Jawziyah

Book:- Zaad Ul Maad]

[draree]

“Sins lead to darkness in one's heart. Obedience to Allah is light, but disobedience to Allah is darkness. When one's darkness increases, one's confusion intensifies, until one falls blindly into the world of innovation and misguidance, just like a blind person walking alone at night. This darkness may become deeper and gradually shows up as dullness in the face of the sinner.”

With a heavy heart we exclaim the departure of this blessed month!

Eid Mubarak

How could we feel happiness when our beloved ones in Palestine are getting martyred. It is the bitter reality.

As Hasan Al Banna once said, "Your actual Eid will be the day your nations are free and there is rule of Islam in the world."

May Allah Azawajal make us firm and consistent upon Islam! And shower his blessings and mercy upon our beloved brethren in Filistine 🇵🇸

Israel is a perfect living example of what western ideologies are capable of doing! Godless societies run by materialistic goons that are hell bent upon the eradication of any good and compassion that is left in the society. Forget about justifying occupation, if what you believe in makes you justify genocide of innocent it already makes you worst of the worst, the wretched ones, the disgraceful ones!

Furthermore if one looks at how these potential people condition the common masses into thinking that while it is Ok to show grief if someone your own dies even if that be your pet! But don't you dare use emotions upon those people who we deem as "human animals" and "lesser humans"! Don't you dare to raise fingers on the ways we function! And after all this, having the moral audacity to dictate what goes around the world gives us a complete insight into how ideologies that distant a person from God Almighty run havoc around the world!

Quran explains it beautifully:-

When they are told, “Do not spread corruption in the land,” they reply, “We are only peace-makers! Indeed, it is they who are the corruptors, but they fail to perceive it.” ~ Surah Al Baqarah V. 11/12

[draree]

Narrated Khabbab bin Al-Arat:

We complained to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) (of the persecution inflicted on us by the infidels) while he was sitting in the shade of the Ka`ba, leaning over his Burd (i.e. covering sheet). We said to him, "Would you seek help for us? Would you pray to Allah for us?" He said, "Among the nations before you a (believing) man would be put in a ditch that was dug for him, and a saw would be put over his head and he would be cut into two pieces; yet that (torture) would not make him give up his religion. His body would be combed with iron combs that would remove his flesh from the bones and nerves, yet that would not make him abandon his religion. By Allah, this religion (i.e. Islam) will prevail till a traveler from Sana (in Yemen) to Hadrarmaut will fear none but Allah, or a wolf as regards his sheep, but you (people) are hasty.

Sahih Bukhari 3612

[draree]

Nearly 200k Palestinians prayed on the night of 27th Ramadan in Masjid Al-Aqsa.

This is highly symbolic of the Tawakal one should have. You have been left alone by the materialistic world and apparently no sign of relief is visible. But then the belief that Allah Azawajal, who is As-Samii and Al-Baseer, shall establish the day of reckoning overcomes the will of every single bloodthirsty creature out there.

May the Muslim countries become liberated under Islam. Ameen!

The Laylat-ul Qadr [Night of Decree]

Narrated Aisha,

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) used to practice I`tikaf in the last ten nights of Ramadan and used to say, "Look for the Night of Qadr in the last ten nights of the month of Ramadan.

[Sahih Bukhari 2020]

Aa'isha reported that she asked: "O' Messenger of Allāh ﷺ! What if I knew which night Laylatul-Qadr was, then what should I say in it?"

He ﷺ said: "Say:

"اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ عَفُوٌّ تُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنِّي"

[O' Allāh you are the one who pardons, and loves to pardon, so pardon me].

Also don't forget to make dua for our brethren in Palestine. May Allah Azawajal alleviate them from this trial and shower upon them his mercy and rahmah. Ameen!

The corruption of any nation begins with that of a few individuals. If the collective conscience of that nation is alive, the pressure of public opinion keeps those persons in check and prevents the nation as a whole from becoming corrupted. But if instead of censuring such individuals, the nation leaves them free to behave corruptly, the corruption originally confined to a few continues to spread till it engulfs the whole nation. It was this which ultimately caused the degeneration of Bani-Israel.

[Towards Understanding the Quran]

[draree]

People have gone through miserable times across the history of Mankind just for standing firm upon Islamic principles of Tawheed and justice! Even the people of highest character and piety i.e. the Prophets, themselves went through such scenarios. Some incidents have been covered in the Islamic tradition in order to inculcate among the Muslim masses the concept of trial, test, affliction and tribulation! And through this one becomes spiritually oriented with the difficult times one is going to have in this life!

Allah Azawajal says, "And We will surely test you with something of fear and hunger and a loss of wealth and lives and fruits, but give good tidings to the patient."

Surah Baqarah V. 155

[draree]

"Know you are in the arena of competition, and your time is passing by. Do not recline to laziness.

What was unachieved was unachieved by laziness. And what was achieved was achieved by hard work and effort."

Imam Ibn Jawzi

[draree]

A'ishah (May Allah be pleased with her) reported: When the last ten nights (of Ramadan) would begin, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would keep awake at night (for prayer and devotion), awaken his family and prepare himself to be more diligent in worship.

(Al-Bukhari and Muslim).
