🙂 Alhamdulillaah, the blessed month of Dhul Hijjah has commenced 🙂
As per the official announcement in Saudi Arabia, UAE and adjoining places, today (12th Aug) is the First Day of Dhul Hijjah 1439. Accordingly, the Day of Arafah will fall on Monday, the 20th August, and Tuesday, 21st August, will be the first day of Eid al Adhaa. (Please check out for the local announcement done in your respective place as one has to go by the fatwa of one’s region)
Although there are mind-blowing resources already posted on this page, I wish to add the Dhul Hijjah Planner with just a few other related posts, by way of reminder and for the benefit of one and all, InShaaAllah. The focus, for me and you, should be on individual performance: to change the inner self.
May Allah give us the Tawfeeque and Hidayah to live by the teachings of Qur’an and Hadeeth to the best of our ability. Continue reading →

بسم الله والصلاة والسلام على رسول الله
In the Quran, the Al-Mighty took an oath by two aspects of His creation, both being great in their stature, both being symbols of Allah, and both being signs to reflect on:
“By the dawn, and by the ten nights” (Surah al-Fajr, verse 1)
The dawn is truly a magnificent sign of Allah. It signifies the end of darkness and passing of the night, and heralds the beginning of a new day. It is a phenomenon that mankind recognises itself as having no control over, as Allah declared in the Qur’an: Continue reading →

Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakaatuhu.
When the mega month of Ramadhaan rises in a Muslim’s life, he compliments himself on this singular good fortune and becomes agog with excitement. He has been given a golden opportunity to refine himself through fasting and through the spiritual nourishment of the glorious Qur’an. The whole community rises to the occasion and greets the month which brings in its wake innumerable possibilities and privileges.
In this splendid scenario, this Post is dedicated to all brothers & sisters in Islam, alhamdulillah.
While I wish you a Happy Ramadhaan, I pray to Allah to shower His choicest Blessings upon you and your family in this blessed month, and all throughout the year. May Allah give us the Tawfeeq to put things into practice and may He accept all our sincere efforts and worship. Aameen.
Here are some beneficial reads to get inspired, InshaaAllah….. Continue reading →

When someone you are deeply attached to departs, you feel sad, lonely, and dejected.
When Ramadhaan leaves us, we feel abandoned.
When you have to wind up your Umrah/Hajj journey and you know that this is your last sight of Ka’bah, your spiritual heart bleeds.
The absence of permanence in different facets of our life is the common factor for all our heartbreaks. Continue reading →

In Surah al Waaqi’ah, Allah asks a simple question to all mankind: نَحْنُ خَلَقْنَاكُمْ فَلَوْلَا تُصَدِّقُونَ
And in Surah Tawba, Allah orders His Messenger thus: خُذْ مِنْ أَمْوَالِهِمْ صَدَقَةً
The meaning of the first ayah is, “We have created you, so why do you not believe?
And the meaning of the second ayah is, “Take, [O, Muhammad], from their wealth a charity“.
Did you find something significantly common in these two verses? Continue reading →

The next ayah that starts with Yaaa Ayyuhal Lazeena Aamanu in Surah al Baqarah is ayah No. 267.
Islam’s unique feature is evident in this command: Do unto others what you would like others to do with you.
Excellence is the hallmark of Islam. It is so amazingly evident from Islam’s approach to the very concept of Sadaqah: ‘spending in the way of Allah’. Continue reading →

The next ayah addressing Muslims through the kindly address Yaaa Ayyuhal Lazeena Aamanu is also related to spending in the way of Allah but with a similitude that makes a thinking Muslim sit up and take stock of his/her charitable deeds. This is Ayah No. 264 of Surah al Baqarah.
Islam doesn’t approve the slogan ‘Ends justify the means’! Continue reading →

Alhamdulillah, this is the Eighth post in the series Yaaa Ayyuhal Lazeena Aamanu.
Today’s ayah is Ayah No. 254 which is also from Surah al Baqarah.
In this ayah, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’aala not only motivates His Believers to “Spend of what We have provided for you” but also warns them of dire consequences if they refuse to act.
Infaaq fee Sabeelillah, that is “spending in the way of Allah” is an important concept in Islam. It is the proof of a Muslim’s goodness. Continue reading →

Zakah and Ramadhaan are seen as twins. In Ramadhaan, we not only fast but we also give Zakah, alhamdulillah. Even though it is a not a rule that the Zakah be given only in this month, we give Zakah in Ramadhaan because of amassing greater rewards in this blessed month. We have to give Zakah anyway, so why not give in a Month which is Full of Blessings Unlimited?
Interesting point to note is that both Zakah and Sawm (Fasting) were made obligatory in the same year, the Second Year of Hijrah.
