Let's Read Surah Kahf Today (Friday) and Memorize it

--- Let's read Surah Kahf today ---

The Surah contains great ayahs, such as the story of the People of the Cave, the story of Musa and al-Khidr, the story of Dhu’l-Qarnayn and his building the dam to hold back Ya’jooj and Ma’jooj, proof of the resurrection and the blowing of the Trumpet, and explanation of those whose deeds are most lost, who are those who think that they are guided when in fact they are misguided and blind. 

Take lessons from these stories.

Every Muslim should strive to read this surah, and to memorize it and read it repeatedly, especially on the best day on which the sun rises, namely Friday.

Read The Quran

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Any group of people that assemble in one of the Houses of Allah to recite the Book of Allah, learning and teaching it, tranquility will descend upon them, mercy will engulf them, angels will surround them and Allah will make mention of them to those (the angels) in His proximity."

[Muslim]

ما اجتمع قوم في بيت من بيوت الله يتلون كتاب الله، ويتدارسونه بينهم، إلا نزلت عليهم السكينة، وغشيتهم الرحمة، وحفتهم الملائكة، وذكرهم الله فيمن عنده‏"‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه مسلم‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏

Unlock Your Hearts

--- Unlock the Hearts ---

People who refuse to contemplate on the Quran is because their hearts are locked up. That's why they don't feel the necessity to put the time and effort to think deeply on the Quran. 

 أَفَلَا يَتَدَبَّرُونَ ٱلْقُرْءَانَ أَمْ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبٍ أَقْفَالُهَآ ‎﴿٢٤﴾

Then do they not reflect upon the Quran, or are there locks upon [their] hearts? 
(Quran, Muhammad 47:24)

Dedicate a time in your day and discipline yourself to learning the Quran. The time belongs to Allah. Hand it over to Allah and you will be rewarded.

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Convey from me, even if it be an Ayah,.."

If Not Now, When?

-- If not now, when? ---

The Quran is the best remembrance. So read it.

The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam told us that the best of us are those who learn the Quran and teach it. (Bukhari)) So learn and teach it.

And Allah has promised that He has made the Quran easy to remember. So memorize it.

وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا ٱلْقُرْءَانَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِر‎

And We have certainly made the Quran easy for remembrance, so is there any who will remember? (Quran, al Qamar 54:17)

So, what are you waiting for?

Look Up To The Skies

Look up to the skies and humble yourself

Every day Allah decorates the skies but we have no time to see.

كُلَّ يَوْمٍ هُوَ فِى شَأْنٍ ‎﴿٢٩﴾‏

Every day He is bringing about a matter. (Quran, Ar-Rahman 55:29)

Blessed is He in whose hand is dominion, and He is over all things competent - (1) [He] who created death and life to test you [as to] which of you is best in deed - and He is the Exalted in Might, the Forgiving - (2) [And] who created seven heavens in layers. You do not see in the creation of the Most Merciful any inconsistency. So return [your] vision [to the sky]; do you see any breaks? (3) Then return [your] vision twice again. [Your] vision will return to you humbled while it is fatigued. (4) 
(Quran, al Mulk 67:1-4)

Jangan Terguris Hati Orang

Bismillah 

Bercakap dan berdiam adalah nikmat dari Allah tapi ramai yang lebih suka bercakap dari berdiam. Bukan setakat tersalah cakap tapi mencerca, menengking anak isteri, menyamai perkara tak baik kepada mereka, tak pernah minta maaf. 

Rasulullah s.a.w. mengajar kita bercakap baik atau diam.
"Barangsiapa yang beriman kepada Allah dan hari akhirat, maka hendaklah ia berkata baik atau diam."
(Riwayat Bukhari)

Frman Allah s.w.t:
مَا يَلْفِظُ مِن قَوْلٍ إِلاَّ لَدَيْهِ رَقِيبٌ عَتِيدٌ
“Apapun kata yang terucap pasti disaksikan oleh Raqib dan ‘Atid.” (Qaff:18)

Rasulullah s.a.w. pernah ditanya tentang siapakah sebaik-sebaik seorang Muslim itu, maka jawab baginda Nabi:
مَنْ سَلِمَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ مِنْ لِسَانِهِ وَيَدِهِ
“(Mereka) yang memberikan rasa aman kepada saudara Muslim-nya daripada gangguan lisan dan tangannya.” (Riwayat Bukhari)

Hsab lah diri sebelum di hisab.

Is Allah Pleased With You? Some Signs

Bismillah

How do you know if Allah is pleased with you? Only Allah knows but they are signs....

1. Look at what Allah keeps you busy with. If you are busy with things that are pleasing to Him, then this is a good sign He is pleased with you. 

Evaluate yourself -- Where do you spent most of your time daily? If your solat is on time, regularly perform solat jema'ah at the masjid, learning Quran, seeking beneficial knowledge, ...this is a good sign that Allah is pleased with you.

If Allah make it easy for you to perform an ibadah (reading Quran, fasting, giving charity, qiyamullail,...), this is a major sign that Allah is pleased with you.

2.  Ask yourself, "Am I  pleased with Allah ... His decree upon me?" If you are, then it is a sign that Allah is pleased with you. 

رَّضِىَ ٱللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ وَرَضُوا۟ عَنْهُ

Allah being pleased with them, and they with Him. (Al Ma'ida 5:119)

When you are happy with hardships the same way you are happy with blessings, that means you are pleased with Allah.

3. Check your relationship with your parents (righteous, Godfearing parents). If they are pleased with you, that is a great sign that Allah is pleased with you.

Allah says (interpretation of the meaning): 

“Worship Allah and join none with Him (in worship); and do good to parents…”

“The pleasure of the Lord is in the pleasure of one’s parents and the anger of the Lord is in the anger of one’s parents, and the anger of Allah is in the anger of one's parents.”  

This applies so long as the parent is not drifting away from the path of piety, otherwise pleasing the Lord is done by going against the parent’s orders. This is a stern warning from which it may be understood that disobeying one's parents is a major sin 

4. If you are a righteous person and people honor and respect you, that is a great sign Allah is pleased with you.

Abu Hurairah reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “When Allah loves a servant, He calls Jibril and he says: Verily, I love this person so you should love him. Then Jibril loves him and makes an announcement in the heavens, saying: Allah loves this person and you should love him. Thus, the dwellers of the heavens love him and he is honored on the earth.”

May Allah be pleased with me and you, our parents, our children and those we love and those who love us. Aameen.

Adakah Allah Gembira Dengan Anda? Tanda2nya

Adakah Allah gembira (redha) dengan kita? Tanda2nya ...

1. Perhatikn apa yg kita sibukan sehari2an-- jika Allah gembira dengan kita, Dia akn sibukn kita dengan urusan dan amalan2 yang akan menggembirakn kita di akhirat nnti.

2. Adakah kita redha dengan ujian Allah -- semasa susah atau senang? Jika kita redha, itu tanda Allah redha dengan kita

3.  Adakah kita treat ibu bapa kita dengan sebaik2nya? -- keredhaan Allah adalah dari keredhaan ibu bapa kita terhadap kita, dan kemurkaan Allah adalah dari kemurkaan ibu bapa kita kepada kita 

4. Adakah orang hormat dn sayang kita sebab ketaqwaan atau kesolehan kita?  Allah letak rasa sayang dn hormat dalam hati manusia terhadap kita bila Allah gembira dengan kita.

Allahu a'lam

Matlamat Shaytan Dan 7 Pintu Masuk Shaytan

Bismillah

Matlamat shaytan adalah membawa manusia masuk neraka bersamanya. Semoga Allah selamatkn kita dari neraka dn jauhkn kita dr bisikan shaytan.

7 pintu shaytan bolih masuk untuk tarik iman kita -- tutup semua pintu2 tu, jgn terbuka sikit pun.

1. Tarik kita dari beramal

Seseorg itu mungkin ada niat untuk bangun awal pagi untuk solat tahajud dn baca Quran tp ada aje benda nk buat tngh mlm dn x dpt tidur awal, jd x bangun pagi.

Remedy -- paksa diri (i e. lawan shaytan). Lama2 shaytan x kacau d situ lg.

2. Menangguh amalan
sikap lpasni aku buat! dn rasa urusan lain tu lebih mustahak
remedy -- ingat mati

3. Riya' (perasaan megah diri)

nk bg org nmpk amalan kita -- suka d puji

4. Haste (nak cepat habis aje)

Klu baca Quran, baca cepat2 sampai tajweed jadi tak betul

Remedy -- sabar dlm beramal

5.  'Ujb (sombong)

Rasa dia ada atau dpt sesuatu sbb dia, bkn tawfiq dr Allah

6. Subtle riya' (riya' halus)

Bila shaytan x dpt masuk pintu 1-5, dia cuba pintu ni.
Shaytan mula puji/menonjol kebaikn kita, dn kita pun rasa org patut balas budi baik kita.

Remedy -- ingat klu Allah x bg tawfiq untuk kita berbuat baik, kita x kn bolih buat kebaikan itu. Mula sesuatu amalan dgn niat yg ikhlas semata2 untuk Allah, bkn untuk di puji dsb.

7. Rasa amalan tak perlu sbb Allah sudah tentukn nasib kita

Remedy -- Apa yg Allah tentukn untuk kita, Dia saja yg tahu. Sebagai hamba Allah kita perlu buat apa yg Allah suruh kita buat.

رَبَّنَآ ءَاتِنَا مِن لَّدُنكَ رَحْمَةً وَهَيِّئْ لَنَا مِنْ أَمْرِنَا رَشَدًا ‎﴿١٠﴾‏

Wahai Tuhan kami! Kurniakanlah kami rahmat dari sisiMu, dan berilah kemudahan-kemudahan serta pimpinan kepada kami untuk keselamatan ugama kami". (10)  (Surah Al-Kahf 18:10)
