100 days until Ramadan اللهم بلغنا رمضان آمين يارب

[bleedingmusk]

to those who say:

"keep our ummah in your duas, for it's our weapon against the disbelievers"

of course it is undeniable that duas hold great power. yet, what use is a weapon if its bearer neglects to wield it?

‎The Prophet ﷺ said: ❝The best actions are:

‎• Cheering up your brother

‎• Relieving his debt

‎• Feeding him.❞

‎[صحيح الجامع ١٠٩٦]

❝ Istighfār is an abandoned Sunnah after the recitation of the Qur’ān. After the recitation of the Qur’ān it’s Mustahabb to say,

سبحانك وبحمدك لا إله إلا أنت أستغفرك وأتوب إليك

O Allāh, You are free from every imperfection; praise be to You. There is no deity worthy of worship except You; I ask Your forgiveness and turn to You in repentance. ❞

—Shaykh Ahmad Mūsā Jibrīl (حفظه الله)

[bleedingmusk]

Shaykh Ahmad Müsà Jibril was once asked: "Why does my Iman keep getting low and weakens?"

The Shaykh beautifully replied saying:

"You're not the only one, my iman weakens, everybody's iman weakens. And that's why the hasanat, the fara'id, strengthens your imân. And likewise the sins weaken the Iman and not only that, being neutral weakens the iman. Always have your tongue fresh with the Dhikr  of Alläh with the Qur'an. If you have time, do Dhikr, if you're in your car, put Qur'an, if you're home, have certain hours where you study the 'ilm, if it is at night time, do Qiyam. That's how a Muslim should be, don't let a second of your life go to waste. Not only does this occupy ones time in doing good deeds, but will keep them away from the haram and strengthen his imân."

يقول احد الصالحين لا تفكر كثيرا، بل استغفر كثيرا

فالله يفتح بالاستغفار أبوابا لا تفتح بالتفكير

A righteous man says: do not think a lot, but make istighfar, for Allah opens with istighfar doors that cannot be opened with overthinking.

[bleedingmusk]

Dear beloved,

Your eyes conceal stories of pain which many will not bear to hear but yet you don't fail to smile...

I fear a day where I will be held accountable for not becoming a source of relieving your discomfort...

A day where I will be held accountable for ignoring your cries while enjoying my wealth and indulging away in my desires...

News reaches me of your suffering which makes me sad but then quickly fades due to the lies I have made...

أعوذ بالله من أن أكون كَنُوداً، أعُد البلايا و أنسى النعَم

"I seek refuge in Allah from being ungrateful, counting the calamities and forgetting the blessings."

[bleedingmusk]

When you raise a generation connected with Qur’an, this is the best deed you can do when you meet Allah.

[bleedingmusk]

If you are willing to take a big step on your life that will need miracles from Allah, then do like the people of the cave whom Allah opened a way out because of past good deeds they done purely for His sake, now it’s your time to do good deeds, so that when you’re stuck and nothing besides the mercy of Allah can save you you can ask Him by such deed to have mercy on you, say ‘oh My lord, ive done so and so or Ive abstained from so and so purely for your sake, seeking your mercy in dunyah and akhirah, so oh Allah don’t disappoint me and grant me a way out of this calamity of mine’

Have a credit of hasanaat with Allah when upon ease, so that He can protect you with them when upon hardship.

One of the best ways to attain what one wishes -besides witr and tahajjud and other known methods- is abandoning sin for the sake of that thing you seek, whenever you’re before a sin intend to abandon it so that Allah has mercy on you when you need it.

A man said to ‘Aamir ibn al-Qays (rahimahullah): Pray (make du’a) for me.

‘Aamir replied to him and said to the man:

Obey Allah then pray (make du’a) to Him (yourself),

He will accept it (your du’a) from you.

Salmān رضي الله عنه said:

"Verily, your Lord is Modest and Generous.

He is shy to turn down His servant empty handed

when he raises his hands to Him!”

[Az-Zuhd Li Wakī’: 504]

[bleedingmusk]

Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (d.728H) - رحمه الله - said,

"There isn't a single ayah in the Book of Allah that praises anyone due to their lineage,

nor one that criticizes anyone due to their lineage;

the Book of Allah only praises people due to Iman and Taqwa."

Ali bn Abi Talib (رضى الله عنه) said:

“From the most beloved of speech to Allāh is

for the servant to say while he is in Sujud:

I have wronged myself, so forgive me.”
