    You’re entering sacred time, so do more

    As we enter Dhul-Qa’dah, one of the sacred months, this episode is a gentle reminder that not all time is the same.Allah says:“Indeed, the number of months with Allah is twelve [lunar] months… of these, four are sacred. That is the correct religion, so do not wrong yourselves during them…” (Surah At-Tawbah 9:36)And the Prophet ﷺ said:“The year is twelve months, of which four are sacred: three consecutive months—Dhul-Qa’dah, Dhul-Hijjah, and Muharram—and Rajab…” (Bukhari & Muslim)A short reflection on becoming more aware of sacred time, and how even small actions can carry greater weight within it.Wa Allahu a‘lam.

    Surahtul Kahf Reflections pt.1 | the test of majority

    -just because everyone is doing it doesn’t mean it’s rightremember to read surahtul kahf and send salawat upon the Prophet🤍Abū Sa'id reported the Prophet as saying, “If anyone recites sūra al-Kahf (Qur’ān, 18) on Friday, light will shine brightly for him till the next Friday.”Baihaqī transmitted it in [Kitāb] al-Da‘awāt al-kabir.ReferencesAbout the sun being close to the heads of people on Yaumul Hisaab:Miqdad b. Aswad reported:I heard Allah's Messenger (may peace he upon him) as saying: On the Day of Resurrection, the sun would draw so close to the people that there woum be left only a distance of one mile. Sulaim b. Amir said: By Allah, I do not know whether he meant by" mile" the mile of the (material) earth or dn instrument used for applying collyrium to the eye. (The Prophet is, however, reported to have said): The people would be submerged in perspiration according to their deeds, some up to their. knees, Some up to the waist and some would have the bridle of perspiration and, while saying this, Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) pointed his hand towards his mouth.Sahih Muslim 2864About a young person that grows up in the worship of Allah being shaded on that day:Narrated Abu Huraira:The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Allah will give shade, to seven, on the Day when there will be no shade but His. (These seven persons are) a just ruler, a youth who has been brought up in the worship of Allah (i.e. worships Allah sincerely from childhood), a man whose heart is attached to the mosques (i.e. to pray the compulsory prayers in the mosque in congregation), two persons who love each other only for Allah's sake and they meet and part in Allah's cause only, a man who refuses the call of a charming woman of noble birth for illicit intercourse with her and says: I am afraid of Allah, a man who gives charitable gifts so secretly that his left hand does not know what his right hand has given (i.e. nobody knows how much he has given in charity), and a person who remembers Allah in seclusion and his eyes are then flooded with tears."Şahih al-Bukhari (660). sunnah.com Quran 30 for 30 episode touched a bit on this juz

    A brief correction- The sunnah of salam

    In this brief episode, I make a small but important clarification regarding the wording of the salām used in some of my older episodes.After revisiting the Qur’an and Sunnah, I learned that the complete and authentic form of the salām taught by the Prophet ﷺ is: Assalāmu ʿalaykum wa raḥmatullāhi wa barakātuh, and that additional wording I previously used is not from the Sunnah.This episode is simply a correction, a reminder, and a reflection on the importance of precision in our words of worship. Any good is from Allah, and any mistake is from myself.May Allah teach us what benefits us and benefit us with what He teaches us.

    3 tips to stop that sin | How to Avoid Sin

    3 Steps to Leave a Sin Behind, may Allah protect us from all sins ,🥹 those that are obvious and those that are hidden , the major sins and the minor sins , the public sins and the private sins , the sins we have committed and the sins we have yet to commit,🥹 ya rabbi please ya Allah forgive usSins are not forbidden without reason. Every sin is filthy, harmful, and destructive - damaging the heart, weakening iman, and distancing us from Allah swt.To leave a sin behind, we must begin with three things:​ Acknowledge the reality of the sin - what Allah has made haram is filthy and harmful, even if the nafs tries to beautify it.​ Remember that Allah is watching - He is Ar-Raqib. Don’t silence the inner voice that reminds you that Allah sees you.​ Repent constantly - no matter how many times you fall. Keep returning to Allah until the devil loses.Resisting a sin out of fear and shyness before Allah earns a full good deed, and striving against your desires makes you a fighter in the sight of Allah.Never give up on tawbah.Keep returning. Keep fighting.

    an act of worship that is paradise on earth

    The video I read the subtitles of-“You’ll Never Miss Tahajjud After watching this! - Ali Hammuda” Qiyam Al-Layl ( The Standing at Night - Night Prayer) is a confirmed Sunnah. Qiyam Al-Layl plays a great role in strengthening one's faith and helping one to do good deeds. Allah praises those who have faith and are pious for their noble characteristics and good deeds, one of the most special of which is Qiyam Al-Layl. It is one of the means of avoiding the punishment of Hell and attaining Paradise. The Prophet pbuh said the best prayer after the obligatory prayer is prayer at night.Full Hadith:Abu Huraira (Allah be pleased with him) reported that he (the Messenger of Allah) was asked as to which prayer was most excellent after the prescribed prayer, and which fast was most excellent after the month of Ramadan. He said:Prayer offered in the middle of the night and the most excellent fast after (fasting) in the month of Ramadan is the fast in God's month al-Muharram.Sahih Muslim 1163

    The importance of knowledge in Islam

    In the first episode of the season, we reflect on the weighty status knowledge holds in our dīn. From the very first command revealed “Read!” to the praise of those who fear Allah due to what they know, Islam consistently upholds knowledge as a path to Paradise and a sign of Allah’s favor.We explore Qur’ānic verses and hadīth that emphasize the responsibility of seeking, acting upon, and sharing beneficial knowledge especially knowledge of the religion. The scholars are the inheritors of the Prophets, and those who sincerely carry and teach this light are promised ongoing reward, even after their death.May Allah increase us in knowledge that benefits and grant us sincerity in both seeking and applying it.Tune in and let your heart be reminded of why learning in Islam isn’t optional ,it’s essential.May Allah increase us in beneficial knowledge and make us people who live what we know. Ameen.

    learning to look forward to the start of your actual life

    In this episode Nafisa reflects on a phrase her teacher said“We need to learn to love death, It’s the beginning of the actual life”For the believer one has to remember that death is the start of actual life!The whole episode is filled with many reflections of how we view death, why we might view it the way we view it and maybe a better way to look at it!* Notes to self:For the believer one has to remember that death is the start of actual life!So you have to get it right here , take with you the deeds that Allah will have mercy on you and grant you the best of the ACTUAL lifeSacrifice for Him swt and prepare for a life where the currency before you are given an eternal home is in the actions you took in this test of a life.You will get what you strive for. So oh servant of her merciful lord, look at your life , look at your calendar, look at your habits , look at the day to day activities you take on in this test of a life, are you striving for a good eternal home or the opposite?Are you filling your books with good actions or the opposite?Will you be happy to start your actual life today?

    Your opportunity to get it right

    Do you know what month we’re in? 🤭Do you know the Islamic months? Welll we’re actually in a sacred month! Dhul Q’idah!In this episode Nafisa shares what she’s learnt about sacred months, how we can use this month as a time to actualize the better versions of ourselves we wanted to see right after Ramadan. Having had a dip in shawwal , where our bodies even physically could not do what we did in Ramadan, we rested and recharged and what better motivation than a sacred month where good deeds are amplified to make the most of and become the better versions of ourselves!!!🤗🥹Alhamdullilah! Listen to the episode for all the reflections May Allah allow for you and I to make the most out of these sacred months!(*****IMPORTANT POINT TO NOTE , Allah can choose to forgive one but in their record the sin is still there but it’s also written that Allah has forgiven it, then there’s a next level that Allah decides that the sin be wiped out from the record completely and then there’s next level could be that if Allah wills he makes that the sin is infact turned into a good deed)————————————————————————————“So there are four sacred months, Dhul-Qadah, which means the month to sit. You sit back, you do not fight, you do not engage in any type of warfare.Dhul-Hijjah is the month in which Hajj is, so there used to be a reiteration of Hajj in the Islamic Days.There is Muharram, which means forbidden. It is the beginning of the year, so it's forbidden.And then there's the month of Rajab, which is the only month that is not in succession, that does not come in succession. And Rajab means to remove and refrain. So you would remove your weapons, and refrain from fighting somewhere in the middle of the year.”-Yaqeen YouTube and newsletter on dhul hijja and the sacred monthsImam Tom’s Atomic Habits seriesQuran 9:36 - verse about the twelve months written in Allahs Record from the day he created the heavens and the earth, of them four are sacred.

    Things to reflect on, ramadan so far & the lailatul qadr hunt!

    - Remind yourself WHY you’re fasting, and WHY you’re praying the nights, and WHY you’re searching for lailatul qadr - وَذَكِّرْ فَإِنَّ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ تَنفَعُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ, But ˹continue to˺ remind. For certainly reminders benefit the believers.”Narrated Abu Huraira:The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Whoever fasted the month of Ramadan out of sincere Faith (i.e. belief) and hoping for a reward from Allah, then all his past sins will be forgiven, and whoever stood for the prayers in the night of Qadr out of sincere Faith and hoping for a reward from Allah, then all his previous sins will be forgiven ."Reference : Sahih al-Bukhari 2014In-book reference : Book 32, Hadith 1You have to go out of your way to not be forgiven by Allah, if there’s a deficiency in your fasting, your qiyaam will make up for it by Allahs mercy , if there’s a deficiency in your qiyaam , qiyaam on lailatul wadr will make up for it by the mercy of Allah A complete guide to the last 10 nights and lailatul qadr with Imam Omar-https://youtu.be/eUF_ByyQ7_M?si=WGZRXhgcS2pCHr6O- If you’ve stayed up all night before, you CAN STAY UP ALL NIGHT TONIGHT ( the last ten nights!) , YOU CAN SLEEP ON THE DAY OF EIDIt’s ten nights ! And it’s gone! a night BETTER than a THOUSAND months not EQUAL TO! BETTER!- The best version of you is the person you’ve been this ramadan, is the person you are the type of person that goes to paradise?? Are you the type of person you want to die being? - Reflect on- is the ramadan I’ve lived good enough for Allah to say, yes , I will grant you jannah, I will forgive this servant of mine - We have to prayyyyyy about the things we’ve given up in ramadan, let it not be a pause! Are you worshipping Ramadan or Allah!?- be in constant communication with Allah, talk to Allah, tell him , ya Allah you see what I am going through,Ya Allah help me, ya Allah I’m trying Dua is WORSHIP!And correct worship is rewarded ! By the mercy and will of Allah!- A dua from the Quran I recently started loving:رَبِّ أَوْزِعْنِىٓ أَنْ أَشْكُرَ نِعْمَتَكَ ٱلَّتِىٓ أَنْعَمْتَ عَلَىَّ وَعَلَىٰ وَٰلِدَىَّ وَأَنْ أَعْمَلَ صَـٰلِحًۭا تَرْضَىٰهُ وَأَصْلِحْ لِى فِى ذُرِّيَّتِىٓ ۖ إِنِّى تُبْتُ إِلَيْكَ وَإِنِّى مِنَ ٱلْمُسْلِمِينَMy Lord! Inspire me to ˹always˺ be thankful for Your favours which You blessed me and my parents with, and to do good deeds that please You. And instil righteousness in my offspring. I truly repent to You, and I truly submit ˹to Your Will˺.”Part of Quran 46:15رَبِّ أَوْزِعْنِىٓ أَنْ أَشْكُرَ نِعْمَتَكَ ٱلَّتِىٓ أَنْعَمْتَ عَلَىَّ وَعَلَىٰ وَٰلِدَىَّ وَأَنْ أَعْمَلَ صَـٰلِحًۭا تَرْضَىٰهُ وَأَدْخِلْنِى بِرَحْمَتِكَ فِى عِبَادِكَ ٱلصَّـٰلِحِينَ“My Lord! Inspire me to ˹always˺ be thankful for Your favours which You have blessed me and my parents with, and to do good deeds that please you. Admit me, by Your mercy, into ˹the company of˺ Your righteous servants.”

    don’t panic sister, worship can be in everything 💗

    A little sisterly catchup💗I know it can get super overwhelming when you want to do so much especially in Ramadan and your responsibilities require you to do other thingsWhether it’s going to school or tending to your kids or your parents, with everything you do you can intend for it to be an act of worship ! Allah is so merciful that EVERYTHING YOU DO CAN BE AN ACT OF WORSHIP!This doesn’t mean we shouldn’t STRIVEE and have a plan to challenge ourselves as it’s obviously RAMADAN but this should keep us calm, motivated and hopeful.————Hadiths to motivate us:Abdullah bin 'Abbas (May Allah be pleased with them) reported:Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said that Allah, the Glorious, said: "Verily, Allah (SWT) has ordered that the good and the bad deeds be written down. Then He explained it clearly how (to write): He who intends to do a good deed but he does not do it, then Allah records it for him as a full good deed, but if he carries out his intention, then Allah the Exalted, writes it down for him as from ten to seven hundred folds, and even more. But if he intends to do an evil act and has not done it, then Allah writes it down with Him as a full good deed, but if he intends it and has done it, Allah writes it down as one bad deed".[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].——-It was narrated that 'Umar bin Al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, said that the Messenger of Allah said:"Actions are but by intentions, and each man will have but that which he intended. Whoever emigrated for the sake of Allah and His Messenger, his emigration was for the sake of Allah and His Messenger, and whoever emigrated for the sake of some worldly gain or to marry some woman, his emigration was for that for which he emigrated."Reference : Sunan an-Nasa'i 3437

    make room for others Allah will make room for you

    Ramadan truly is a training ground for good manners🤍🪻Alhamdulillah for Ramadan! May we leave it having improved on how we treat each other. Whether it’s distancing ourselves from idle speech and gossip and backbiting and slander or controlling anger and being mindful of our speech and everything else.~ Hey sis, sorry I didn’t send you a voice note yesterday.. I recorded this one when I really needed a nap so I pray to Allah it’s beneficial!Day 4 today and I pray we remember, as we try our best to fulfill the rights of Our Creator , we also strive to be the best to His creation. Even if some of us are hungry , our reward is with Allah🫂we’re in this together!Today we reflected on this beautiful verse,يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ إِذَا قِيلَ لَكُمْ تَفَسَّحُوا۟ فِى ٱلْمَجَـٰلِسِ فَٱفْسَحُوا۟ يَفْسَحِ ٱللَّهُ لَكُمْ ۖ وَإِذَا قِيلَ ٱنشُزُوا۟ فَٱنشُزُوا۟ يَرْفَعِ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ مِنكُمْ وَٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُوا۟ ٱلْعِلْمَ دَرَجَـٰتٍۢ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ خَبِيرٌۭ ١١O believers! When you are told to make room in gatherings, then do so. Allah will make room for you ˹in His grace˺. And if you are told to rise, then do so. Allah will elevate those of you who are faithful, and ˹raise˺ those gifted with knowledge in rank. And Allah is All-Aware of what you do.Quran 58:11“The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) turned to face the people and said, ‘Straighten your rows,’ three times, ‘for by Allah either you straighten your rows or Allah will create division among your hearts.’ And I saw men standing shoulder to shoulder, knee to knee, ankle to ankle.” Narrated by Abu Dawood, 662; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh Abi Dawood, 61All About straightening rowsNarrated Abu Huraira:The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Whoever established prayers on the night of Qadr out of sincere faith and hoping for a reward from Allah, then all his previous sins will be forgiven; and whoever fasts in the month of Ramadan out of sincere faith, and hoping for a reward from Allah, then all his previous sins will be forgiven."Sahih al-Bukhari 1901Abu Hurairah narrated that:The Messenger of Allah [SAW] said: "Whoever stands (in the voluntary night prayer of) Ramadan out of faith and in the hope of reward, his previous sins will be forgiven. And whoever spends the night of Lailat Al-Qadr in prayer out of faith and in the hope of reward, his previous sins will be forgiven."Sunan an-Nasa'i 5027

    What was my Prophets Ramadan like?🥹

    A Prophetic Ramadan - link to video📌Why should we follow the Sunnah / The Prophetic teaching of our Prophet: becauseee Allah swt says:لَّقَدْ كَانَ لَكُمْ فِى رَسُولِ ٱللَّهِ أُسْوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌۭ لِّمَن كَانَ يَرْجُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ وَٱلْيَوْمَ ٱلْـَٔاخِرَ وَذَكَرَ ٱللَّهَ كَثِيرًۭا ٢١Indeed, in the Messenger of Allah you have an excellent example for whoever has hope in Allah and the Last Day, and remembers Allah often.Quran 33:21قُلْ إِن كُنتُمْ تُحِبُّونَ ٱللَّهَ فَٱتَّبِعُونِى يُحْبِبْكُمُ ٱللَّهُ وَيَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ ذُنُوبَكُمْ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ غَفُورٌۭ رَّحِيمٌۭ ٣١Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “If you ˹sincerely˺ love Allah, then follow me; Allah will love you and forgive your sins. For Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.”Quran 3:31مَّن يُطِعِ ٱلرَّسُولَ فَقَدْ أَطَاعَ ٱللَّهَ ۖ…Whoever obeys the Messenger has truly obeyed Allah…Quran 4:80- soo please follow as many sunnahs as you can and may Allah accept from us and allow for the Quran to have a visible transformative impact on us and may Allah allow for us to prioritise staying in seclusion with Him swt this Ramadan like our Prophet pbuh🫂🥹Other references …Surely good deeds wipe out evil deeds…Quran 11:114Narrated Ibn `Abbas:The Prophet (ﷺ) was the most generous of all the people, and he used to become more generous in Ramadan when Gabriel met him. Gabriel used to meet him every night during Ramadan to revise the Qur'an with him. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) then used to be more generous than the fast wind.Sahih al-Bukhari 3554

If only the wrongdoers could see the ˹horrible˺ punishment ˹awaiting them˺, they would certainly realize that all power belongs to Allah and that Allah is indeed severe in punishment.Quran 2:165

    have good thoughts about Allah

    On this episode Nafisa reflects on the fact that when you love someone you do things for them to be pleased and you stay away from things that are displeasing to them to prove your love for them.because that love is enough reason to do things even if you don’t understand why they like it or why they might not like it , the love you have for them is enough of a reason for you to let go off that thing or hold on to it.So what then of our claim of loving Allah?🥹Love IS a VERB, it’s an ACTION as well.We can all make tall claims , whether it’s claiming to love Allah or claiming we have faith in our hearts.But faith and love are verbs as well . If love and faith are truly in our hearts , what’s our proof?Do we do what Allah likes? Do we stay away from that which He (swt) dislikes?What’s our proof?what’s our evidence that our claims of faith in and love for Allah are true?She also reflects on the fact that we can’t love however, one we do not know. We can’t trust one we don’t know. Sacrifice for one we don’t know .we need to know Allah to love him for how can you love whom you don’t know? We NEED to get to know Allah so we can love him, sacrifice for Him , trust in Him, rely on Him.This is a series on YouTube that I say is the BEST! thing on the internet 🥺☹️Names of Allah and His attributes -Ustadh Hisham has a different approach to it, He explains the names of Allah the way Allah presents them in the Quran, those that are paired in the Quran will be explained as pairs etc It’s a beautiful approach in my opinion and it’s absolutely amazing Who is Allah?-This video is also absolutely amazing.Islam channel app-There’s a series called 99 Names of Allah , it has 21 episodes , it’s also amazing from the parts I’ve watched🥹life changing infact subhanallah The pain of the Prophets and Overcoming your struggles-This is the video I was referring to - Ustadh Abu TaymiyyahI pray to Allah this is beneficial 🤍

Something or someone to confide in, someone to support you and hold you and guide you and ride with you through the ups and downs of life someone to be there for you , to strengthen you and keep you going…And so we reflect on the story of how Prophet Musa AS being a Prophet of Allah requested that Allah gives Prophet Harun AS to him(his brother) to come along with him and support him on his mission to deliver the truth to the Pharoah ( Firaun) and his people.And reflected on SO MUCH MORE!The Quran! The Quran! Upon you is the Quran oh servant of Allah. Have a listenAnd I pray Allah makes this beneficial!

    so , you think you are better than them…

    This episode is about being mindful when we see others in positions we wouldn’t want to be in and being careful not to think at that moment that somehow WE are better than them.In the Quran The Story of Prophet Adam, in different verses Allah tells us about when He SWT instructed that the angels prostrate to Prophet Adam AS but the shaytan ,Iblees not only disobeyed and refused to prostrate he also said that He was BETTER than Him( Prophet Adam AS).The sin of Arrogance .Many call it The First Sin.Subhannallah. He said it there in the Quran Allah quotes his saying “I am better than him” - Allāh] said, "What prevented you from prostrating when I commanded you?" [Satan] said, "I am better than him. You created me from fire and created him from clay [i.e., earth]."Quran 7:12Note to self *Never think you are better than anyone. For there are many skeletons in your closet that Allah has hidden and not exposed. And Allah has favored you today with wealth and health but can easily take it away. So stay humble and be kind.But being humble does not mean we shouldn’t change evil when we come across it for :On the authority of Abu Sa`eed al-Khudree (may Allah be pleased with him) who said:I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say, “Whosoever of you sees an evil, let him change it with his hand; and if he is not able to do so, then [let him change it] with his tongue; and if he is not able to do so, then with his heart — and that is the weakest of faith.” [Muslim]

And Allah himself comforts us that mourn them saying :And never think of those who have been killed in the cause of Allāh as dead. Rather, they are alive with their Lord, receiving provision,Rejoicing in what Allāh has bestowed upon them of His bounty, and they receive good tidings about those [to be martyred] after them who have not yet joined them - that there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve.They receive good tidings of favor from Allāh and bounty and [of the fact] that Allāh does not allow the reward of believers to be lost -Those [believers] who responded to Allāh and the Messenger after injury had struck them. For those who did good among them and feared Allāh is a great reward -…And the verses go on subhanallah 🥹Starting from Quran 3:169I hope it’s beneficial.Link to Instagram page for the girlsLink on who a martyr is & the rank of martyrs 🥹

    a chat in the Prophet’s mosque

    Hey Guys!! Zara’s here and we’re in MEDINA!!!!🥳🥹Insha Allah you benefit from our sisters conversation in the masjid of our beloved right after coming out from the Rawdah.May Allah make it beneficial!I remembered the Arabic 😭 my teacher used to say :may God honour you -أكرمكم الله- Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) having said:By Him in Whose Hand is my life, if you were not to commit sin, Allah would sweep you out of existence and He would replace (you by) those people who would commit sin and seek forgiveness from Allah, and He would have pardoned them.Sahih Muslim 2749- Narrated Abu Huraira:The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Adam and Moses argued with each other. Moses said to Adam. 'O Adam! You are our father who disappointed us and turned us out of Paradise.' Then Adam said to him, 'O Moses! Allah favored you with His talk (talked to you directly) and He wrote (the Torah) for you with His Own Hand. Do you blame me for action which Allah had written in my fate forty years before my creation?' So Adam confuted Moses, Adam confuted Moses," the Prophet (ﷺ) added, repeating the Statement three times.Sahih al-Bukhari 6614narrated by al-Bukhaari and Muslim from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) from the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), who said: “The area between my house and my minbar is one of the gardens of Paradise.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari (1196) and Muslim (1391). Anas (RAA) narrated that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said:“All the sons of Adam are sinners, but the best of sinners are those who repent often.” Related by At·Tirmidhi and Ibn Majah with a strong chain of narrators.Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I heard the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) say: “Whoever performs Hajj for the sake of Allah and does not utter any obscene speech or do any evil deed, will go back (free of sin) as his mother bore him.” (Narrated by al-Bukhari, 1449; Muslim, 1350)

    A brief correction- the sunnah of salam Hello assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullah wa barakatuh !In this episode Nafisa reflects on accepting life as it is and the journey to pursuing patience.It was narrated from Mus’ab bin Sa’d that his father, Sa’d bin Abu Waqqas, said:“I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, which people are most severely tested?’ He said: ‘The Prophets, then the next best and the next best. A person is tested according to his religious commitment. If he is steadfast in his religious commitment, he will be tested more severely, and if he is frail in his religious commitment, his test will be according to his commitment. Trials will continue to afflict a person until they leave him walking on the earth with no sin on him.’”Grade: Hasan (Darussalam)Reference : Sunan Ibn Majah 4023وَلَنَبْلُوَنَّكُم بِشَيْءٍ مِّنَ الْخَوْفِ وَالْجُوعِ وَنَقْصٍ مِّنَ الْأَمْوَالِ وَالْأَنفُسِ وَالثَّمَرَاتِ ۗ وَبَشِّرِ الصَّابِرِينَ[ البقرة: 155]English - Sahih International2:155 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,Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishAnas narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:"When Allah wants good for his slave, He hastens his punishment in the world. And when He wants bad for His slave, He withholds his sins from him until he appears before Him on the Day of Judgement."And with this (same) chain, (it was reported) from the Prophet (ﷺ) who said: "Indeed greater reward comes with greater trial. And indeed, when Allah loves a people He subjects them to trials, so whoever is content, then for him is pleasure, and whoever is discontent, then for him is wrath."Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2396Allah does not require of any soul more than what it can afford. All good will be for its own benefit, and all evil will be to its own loss. ˹The believers pray,˺ “Our Lord! Do not punish us if we forget or make a mistake. Our Lord! Do not place a burden on us like the one you placed on those before us. Our Lord! Do not burden us with what we cannot bear. Pardon us, forgive us, and have mercy on us. You are our ˹only˺ Guardian. So grant us victory over the disbelieving people.”Quran 2: 286Hope you find it beneficial 🪻🤍Official Podcast Instagram page for the girls🫂
