“You have been given that which suffices you but you desire that which will ruin you. You’re not content with a little nor are you quenched with a lot. How can a person ever work for the Hereafter when he can’t sever his desires from the Dunya (world)? The strangest of affairs is that of a person who believes firmly in the Home of Truth (Paradise) but yet strives only for the Home of Delusion (Dunya).”

Oc-tober Day 1: Going about an average day
Tumblr media
Prompts by @icannotreadcursive
-----
[ID: A comic depicting Leila Suleiman, an original character, going about her day. She has large glasses and ahort hair that is covered by a headscarf in two of the panels.
At 5am an alarm wakes a grumpy Leila to pray the morning Fajr prayer. At 6am she drinks a cup of chai, regaining some energy for the day. Where previously 9am was written, it is crossed put and replaced with 8am, which is when she starts to get work calls. Leila's expression looks like the calla already make her tired for the day.
10am, Leila fights multicolor manifestations of magic with spiraling patterns, for work. As she blocks an attack with a single gloved hand, she recites a prayer of protection to herself. Eventually she catches it and the crowd cheers! Except for one concerned audience member who says aloud, "We all almost died today..."
By 3pm Leila goes to her lab with the contained magic and begins her research process. "Finally, evil science hour!" She works in the lab until very late, and the captions for each hour reflect that. "5pm- Lab still. 8pm- Girl leave! 12am- Yeah she just crashed." The last one shows Leila head down, slumped over her desk, knocked out from overworking herself.

Fajr Reflection 🌄 by @wrappedinamystery
Picture from Google
The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said:
“The most perfect of the believers in faith are those who are best in manners and attitude, who are humble, who feel at ease with people and people feel at ease with them. He is not one of us who does not feel at ease with people and they do not feel at ease with him.”
Classed as hasan by al-Albaani in as-Saheehah (751).
What is meant by “humble” is those who are gentle and do not offend or upset the one who befriends them.
The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said:
“Verily you cannot afford to make people happy with your wealth, but you can make them happy with you by means of a cheerful face and good attitude.”
Classed as hasan by al-Albaani in Saheeh at-Targheeb (2661).
The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said:
“Verily Allah is Kind and loves kindness, and He rewards for kindness in a way that He does not reward for harshness or for anything else.”
Al-Bukhaari (6927) and Muslim (2593) narrated from ‘Aa’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her).

[may 22, 2024]
yall i have been so hyperfixated on making a neocities website,,,, it consumed my entire brain yesterday and i ended up sitting at my computer for hours and hours and i missed asr and maghrib because i felt like i couldnt do anything else :))))) astagfirullah
when i hyperfixate, it feels like nothing else matters, not even basic stuff like eating or using the bathroom. i usually dont realize how much time has passed, and if i do, i cant get myself to care enough to stop
but then after a while, i finally got up and realized how awful i felt, like it was suddenly an extremely terrible depression, i couldnt remember what its like to have religious beliefs. it was scary because i dont want to leave islam behind, like ive done so many times before! but its like im suddenly an entirely different person with different beliefs (not really in a system way, i still identified as myself, but more just feeling very disconnected from all previous emotions)
but alhamdullilah, willow (another system member) co-fronted and got us to pray isha. it was immediately comforting and i felt my emotions and faith returning to me. then the next morning, it felt really easy to get up and pray fajr, which i usually struggle with.
i know this may be obvious, but i think thats the whole point of salah being obligatory. like, even when we dont feel like it, when we have no motivation or faith, we're still urged to do our prayers, and thats like the anchor that grounds us. sometimes it feels like a burden, but its honestly really nice to have dedicated parts of the day where we can just reflect and be grateful. (also fajr has helped fix my sleep schedule SO MUCH, omg i love waking up early)
,,, i originally started writing this post so i could share the neocities site, but i ended up writing a whole essay lmao. anyway here's the site (theres still a lot of things i want to add but im proud of it so far)

Ramadān Tips:
By Shield of Taqwa
1. Limit your use of social media and spending excessive time on it socialising. Every second of Ramadān is precious, so don’t waste your time online if it won’t bring any benefit. However, online platforms should be used for spreading reminders and benefits, and one shouldn’t stay away from it completely if they are using it to benefit the Ummah.
2. Eat healthy. Don’t overeat and stay away from unhealthy foods as it will effect your quality of ‘Ibādah. Drink plenty of water when you can.
3. Don’t waste time after you break your fast like many do and excessively socialise. It’s best to stay away from such gatherings in the first place so you don’t fall into doing and speaking about harām things.
4. Always make extra effort and do more as Allāh has made ‘Ibādah so easy for us in this blessed month, alhamdulilāh.
5. Utilise the early hours of the morning well after Fajr, as they have so much barakah in them. Use this time to recite a lot of Qur’ān, memorise and reflect over it and remember Allāh.
6. Recite as much Qur’ān as possible! If you struggle with this, base your recitation around the prayer times and try to at least read a page before and after each Salāh and increase as you go. Although there’s nothing wrong with completing the Qur’ān as that’s what the righteous of the past used to do in this blessed month, don’t forget to also read the tafsīr and reflect over the meanings. This will have a greater effect on one’s Īmān, Taqwā and Salāh, inside and outside of Ramadān.
7. Get a decent amount of rest so you can wake up frequently if able in the last third of the night to do extra ‘Ibādah. There are special times where du’ā is more likely to be answered, now imagine the likelihood of it being answered in the last third of the night, during Ramadān, in Sujūd, and even more so if that night was Laylatul Qadr!
8. Seek Laylatul Qadr every night in the last ten nights, especially the odd nights, and refrain from singling one night out and ignoring the rest. Allāh will only allow the true, sincere ones who make effort with ‘Ibādah to witness this amazing, blessed night.
9. Help your brothers and sisters whenever you can with their needs and hasten to do good deeds even faster in this month.
10. Be humble in front of Allāh and turn to Him in repentance every day and night of Ramadān. Only Allāh knows how many sins we have accumulated over the year so we need to beg Allāh for His forgiveness during these blessed days and nights, and think well of Allāh always.
These are a few tips, but there is so much more that can be done to maximise our ‘Ibādah in this month. Also don’t forget to make plenty of du’ā for the entire ummah; those living and those in their graves.
May Allāh accept our worship and help us truly give this blessed month its rights.
اللهم آمين

“…And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way out. And will provide for him from where he does not expect. And whoever relies upon Allah - then He is sufficient for him…”

Ways on how you can make the most out of these last 10 days. Read below ⬇️
❥ These ten nights of Ramadhan are the greatest ten nights of the entire year, and one of these nights is greater than 1000 months. Every deed you do is multiplied immensely. Take advantage and don’t waste any time, even if it means forcing yourself through phases of laziness and procrastination; you’ll have no regrets working hard in these nights, but you will have regrets if you waste them. If you didn’t do well in your first 20 days of Ramadhan, you can make up for it by finishing strong. Aisha رضي الله عنها narrated to that the Prophet ﷺ would strive hard in worship during the last ten nights of Ramadhan more than any other time.[Sahih Muslim 1175].
❥ Memorize and keep reciting the du’aa that you should make throughout these ten nights while seeking the Night of Decree, as was taught by the Prophet ﷺ –Allaahumma innaka ‘afuwwun tuhibb al-‘afwa fa’affu ‘anni *(O Allah, You are forgiving, and You love forgiveness, so forgive me). اللهم إنك عفو تحب العفو فاعف عني.(Sunan Ibn Majah 3850)
❥ The exact date of Laylatul Qadr (the Night of Decree) is not known with certainty and it could fall on *any* of these night tens. Do you really want to risk losing out on the reward of 1000+ months of worship? Whoever stands in prayer on Laylat al-Qadr out of faith and in the hope of reward, his previous sins will be forgiven.” [Sahih al-Bukhari 1901]. This is the night in which the Decree is shown to the Angels as well, and it reflects one’s provisions, blessings, trials, punishments, life, and death, so strive hard to be of the people who are worshiping Allah on this night.
❥ Prepare a list of du’aa and put your heart into it – these are nights of increased acceptance! One of these nights is the Night of Decree, so make du’aa for yourself, your family and loved ones, and our brothers and sisters around the world, especially the oppressed Muslim brothers and sisters in فلسطين, Syria, Yemen, Lebanon, Sudan, Congo, Uyghurs Muslims, Rohingya Muslims and all around the world. The people you pray for will benefit from your du’aa, as will you.
❥ Try to nap during the day so that you can worship Allah more actively at night. Intend to sleep for His sake so that you can wake up energized for worship, and that sincere intention will bring about His blessing in your energy. If you have work or are busy with children, then at the very least find some time to pray qiyaam before sleeping or before Fajr – to your best capacity.
❥ Try to detox yourself completely from social media or reduce it to a minimum. Focus instead on your relationship with Allah سبحانه و تعالى as much as possible.
❥ Include a lot of Qur’an recitation (and translation, if applicable), dhikr and adhkars, lengthy prayers, and a lot of du’aa. If you have work or school during the daytime, keep your tongue busy with the remembrance of Allah as much as you can.
❥ Be patient through your other tasks, such as work, school, raising children, etc. Know that you have been given a huge blessing by being alive in this blessed month when many others have passed away. Imagine this is your last time to experience these ten nights and motivate yourself to excel as much as possible as if you’re bidding farewell to Ramadhan.
❥ Give charity throughout these 10 nights in order to be guaranteed that your charity falls on Laylatul Qadr – better than 1000 months of worship.
❥ Motivate others – your family, friends, and community to take these ten nights seriously. Remember that the nights are very short and extremely precious; this is the most valuable time of the year which cannot be wasted. Wake up your family if possible and worship Allah سبحانه و تعالى together. Truly, the deprived person is the one who misses out on Laylatul Qadr and the blessings of Ramadhan. May Allah bless our time and accept from us on Laylatul Qadr. Aameen.
(DID NOT INCLUDE CUZ NO SPACE) Ya Allah, allow our good deeds to continue throughout the year as a sign of the acceptance of our deeds in Ramadhan. Aameen 💛

Benefits of Salatul Fajr
The Fajr prayer, also known as the dawn prayer, is one of the five daily prayers (Salat) in Islam. It is performed before sunrise, typically during the twilight before the sun rises. Muslims are encouraged to pray the Fajr prayer for several reasons, including spiritual, religious, and practical ones:
Obedience to Allah (God): Praying Fajr is an act of obedience to Allah's commandments as outlined in the Quran and the Hadith (sayings and actions of the Prophet Muhammad). It is considered a fundamental religious obligation for Muslims.
Spiritual Connection: Fajr prayer allows Muslims to start their day with a strong connection to Allah. It is a time for reflection, gratitude, and seeking Allah's guidance for the day ahead. It helps maintain a strong spiritual connection throughout the day.
Discipline: Waking up early to perform the Fajr prayer requires discipline and commitment. It teaches self-control and the ability to resist worldly distractions, which can be valuable qualities for personal growth and development.
Blessings and Rewards: Muslims believe that performing the Fajr prayer brings blessings and rewards from Allah. The Prophet Muhammad is reported to have said that the two units (Rak'ahs) of Fajr prayer are better than the world and all it contains.
Community and Unity: Praying Fajr in congregation (with others at the mosque) fosters a sense of community and unity among Muslims. It strengthens the bonds of brotherhood and sisterhood among believers.
Protection from Evil: The Fajr prayer is believed to provide protection from evil forces and negative influences. It serves as a shield for the believer throughout the day.
Mental Clarity and Focus: Starting the day with prayer helps to clear the mind and focus on what's important. It can enhance productivity and decision-making.
Health Benefits: Waking up early for Fajr prayer can have physical health benefits. It sets a routine that aligns with the body's natural circadian rhythms, which can improve sleep patterns and overall well-being.
Consistency in Worship: Regularly performing Fajr prayer establishes a consistent pattern of worship throughout the day, with the other four daily prayers (Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha) following.
It's important to note that Fajr prayer holds significant spiritual and religious value in Islam, and its observance is considered a fundamental part of a Muslim's daily life. However, it is also recognized that there may be legitimate reasons, such as illness or travel, that can exempt individuals from performing the Fajr prayer. In such cases, Muslims are encouraged to make up for the missed prayer as soon as they are able.

ISLAM 101: SPIRITUALITY IN ISLAM: PART 90
Love and affection
Part 3
Moulana Rumi
Moulana Rumi was born on 1207 in Balkh, Khorasan and died in 1273. He was one of the most famous Sufi. He was also a poet, jurist, Islamic scholar, and theologian. Moulana Rumi writes in his book “Fîhî Mâfih”:
“All prophets and holy man are the heart of the universe. They walked into the realm and escaped from humanbeing and so they learned the secrets of the universe. They invited people to learn and know these secrets. They said that this world you see is poverty. We found a nice place where there is no poverty and deficiency. Here the soul, in all cases, is associated with love.”
The opening verse of Moulana’s most famous and loved poems, “ghazals”, is
“I was dead, I became alive, I was torn, I became laughter.”
It is as if with such a start, reaching the sovereignty of love and transforming to the everlasting sovereign – all in one verse – he is telling us: Now do you want to take this journey with me? And since the real source who is inviting us is He who speaks through the tongue of Moulana; we say “Yes”. And when we ask how? We hear the same answer that Ibn Arabî heard in one of his intimate conversations when he asked Allah “How could one get close to You?” And Allah responded, “Through an attribute that I do not possess, meaning “ubuudiyat”, which means servanthood. Servanthood is necessary in order to open the way for the majesty and sovereignty of love to enter.
Moulana ratifies the statement of Ibn Arabî about the signs of Love above and explains in a verse of his book “Mesnevi”:
My heart felt the glow of the soul, my heart opened up and split,
My heart weaved a new satin, I became enemy of this ragged one.
This is a very important verse. After submitting the ego-self willingly, comes this crucial point that the light of the soul splits open his heart and weaves a new fabric made of the atlas, which is soft silky satin. It is at this point that he realizes or sees what a shabby fabric the old one was, and becomes the enemy of the ragged one. He is pointing to stages of transcendence, since only after arriving at each level of the ladder of transcendence one gets to see the reality of the level before, through the light that is given accordingly. The stages of the spiritual journey are to prepare us to arrive at the light. The light is not absent, but we would need to find it in order to reach reality. The Reality, the Light has always been there, but our eyes can not see because we are veiled from it.
We know that the highest level of transformation of the self (nafs) is to become cleared of our distortions of the Commanding self, and the Blaming self and to reach the stage of self at peace and become the mirror that reflects Allah.
The path of Sufism is based on the transformation of the self. So Moulana says in the following verse
Looking at me is looking at yourself, I am that mirror.
You looked at me (pleased) with laughter, and became the whole flower field of laughter.
This verse correlates with the Quranic verse when Allah is pleased with His servant and says:
��O you human being that has attained to inner peace! Return your Sustainer, well pleased and pleasing Him. Enter My true servants. Enter My Paradise.” (Al-Fajr, verses 27-30)
One of the reasons that Moulana’s poetry is so alive after 800 years and will continue to be so, is because they transmit the message of Divine love and servant-hood, the inner and the outer, the apparent and the hidden aspect of the rope which takes a man to God.
The words of Moulana moves people and talks to their inner hearts. By his words is got of the scent of the Beloved.
I am His cup and His wine jug I am the dispenser of the scent of His perfume.
Come to me so that you could receive the scent of His perfumed quality.

Stay on Track with Salah: Accurate Prayer Timetable for Muslims in the UK
For Muslims, prayer (Salah) is a vital pillar of faith and an essential part of daily life. Observing the five daily prayers punctuates the day with moments of spirituality, reflection, and connection with Allah. A reliable and accessible prayer timetable is crucial for Muslims living in the UK to ensure they are performing these prayers at their prescribed times. A proper prayer timetable helps maintain accuracy in worship and serves as a daily reminder of the beautiful rhythm of Islamic practices.
Understanding the Five Daily Prayers and Their Significance
Each of the five daily prayers holds unique significance, and performing them at the right time is a fundamental part of fulfilling this Islamic obligation:
Fajr – The pre-dawn prayer, performed before sunrise, signifies the start of the day with spiritual strength and guidance.
Dhuhr – The midday prayer, marking a break in the day, symbolizes gratitude and mindfulness.
Asr – The afternoon prayer, which calls for reflection as the day starts to conclude.
Maghrib – The sunset prayer, performed just after sunset, serves as a reminder to reflect on the day’s actions.
Isha – The night prayer, offering a peaceful close to the day, reinforces one’s faith before resting.
Keeping track of these prayer times without a reliable prayer timetable can be challenging, especially with the changing seasons in the UK.
Why a Reliable Prayer Timetable Matters
A trusted prayer timetable is invaluable for Muslims, especially when residing in non-Muslim-majority countries where the public clock doesn’t necessarily align with Islamic prayer times. With days lengthening or shortening as seasons shift, prayer times can vary by several hours over the year. A prayer timetable ensures one is always prepared, allowing adherence to the daily prayer routine despite these changes.
A well-structured prayer timetable is designed to:
Reflect accurate prayer timings based on local latitude and longitude.
Adjust automatically to changes in daylight hours and seasons.
Provide city-specific times, which can vary significantly even within the UK.
Using Al-Wahab Foundation’s Prayer Timetable for Accurate Salah Timings
For Muslims in the UK, Al-Wahab Foundation offers an exceptional prayer timetable that is both accurate and easy to access. The foundation’s prayer timetable takes into account the unique geographical position of the UK, ensuring that timings align precisely with the Islamic guidelines for prayer.
Benefits of Adhering to the Daily Salah Schedule
Spiritual Rejuvenation – Each prayer time offers an opportunity to detach from worldly distractions and focus on one’s relationship with Allah.
Structure and Discipline – Following a prayer timetable instills discipline and brings a structured rhythm to daily life.
A Sense of Community – Observing prayer times connects Muslims worldwide, fostering a sense of unity in shared worship, regardless of location.
Stress Relief – Setting aside time for prayer can have a calming effect, reducing stress and improving mental well-being.
Fulfilling a Core Religious Obligation – Adherence to a prayer timetable allows Muslims to fulfill one of the pillars of Islam, which is an essential part of their faith.
How Seasonal Changes Affect Prayer Times in the UK
In the UK, seasonal changes can significantly affect prayer times. During summer, days are longer, and the Fajr prayer can be as early as 2:00 AM, with Isha not occurring until 11:00 PM. Conversely, in winter, Fajr is often closer to 7:00 AM, and Isha around 5:30 PM. This variability underscores the importance of a reliable prayer timetable to accommodate these shifts.
Accessing the Al-Wahab Foundation’s Prayer Timetable
Al-Wahab Foundation’s website offers a user-friendly prayer timetable that is accessible online, allowing Muslims across the UK to check prayer times for their specific city. This convenience means that, regardless of where you are in the UK, you can have the exact prayer timings at your fingertips.
Conclusion
For Muslims in the UK, a reliable prayer timetable is an essential tool for ensuring accurate and timely observance of Salah. The spiritual benefits of maintaining regular prayer times are immense, fostering a deeper connection to faith and a disciplined lifestyle. Organizations like Al-Wahab Foundation provide Muslims with an accurate prayer timetable that accommodates the specific needs of UK residents, accounting for seasonal and geographical variations.

Ramadan and the Rules for Brushing Teeth: A Guide to Maintaining Oral Hygiene
During the holy month of Ramadan, Muslims observe fasting from dawn until sunset, refraining from eating, drinking, and other physical needs. While this period is an opportunity for spiritual reflection and growth, maintaining basic personal hygiene, including brushing teeth, is still important. However, because fasting means avoiding the intake of anything, including water, there are a few specific rules for brushing teeth that Muslims should follow to ensure they do not invalidate their fast.
Ramadan Rules for Brushing Teeth
The key concern when it comes to brushing teeth during Ramadan is making sure that nothing enters the body, such as water, toothpaste, or particles, while the fast is in progress. This can be tricky, but with a little care, it is possible to maintain good oral hygiene without breaking the fast.
Brush Before Fajr (Dawn) and After Iftar (Breaking Fast): It is recommended to brush your teeth before Fajr, when the fast begins, and after Iftar, when the fast ends. Doing so ensures that no toothpaste or water is ingested during the daylight hours, which could invalidate the fast.
Be Careful with Toothpaste: While brushing your teeth during Ramadan, it's important to be cautious with toothpaste. Avoid swallowing any paste, even accidentally. It is better to use a small amount and ensure it is thoroughly rinsed out. Some prefer to use a miswak, a natural teeth-cleaning tool, which doesn’t involve paste and is less likely to cause accidental swallowing.
Use a Soft Brush and Gentle Motions: To reduce the risk of water or toothpaste being swallowed, use a soft-bristled toothbrush and be gentle while brushing. Avoid vigorous rinsing and spitting, especially if you're not used to fasting during this time. Try to be mindful of the water you use for rinsing your mouth after brushing.
Timing Matters: One of the best times to brush your teeth is during the Suhoor meal (pre-dawn meal). Brushing after Suhoor ensures that your mouth feels fresh before the fast begins. Additionally, brushing your teeth after Iftar ensures that you can maintain hygiene throughout the evening, especially after the meals that break your fast.
Hydration and Oral Health: While brushing teeth during the day is essential, the lack of hydration during fasting hours can sometimes cause dry mouth, which could lead to discomfort. To keep your mouth moist and clean, drink plenty of water between Iftar and Suhoor, and make sure to hydrate well during non-fasting hours.
By following these simple guidelines, you can keep your mouth clean and your fast valid.
Learning and Growing with Shaykhi
As Ramadan is a time of spiritual growth, it can also be a great opportunity to deepen your knowledge of the Quran and the Arabic language. Whether you're new to learning or looking to improve your understanding, there are valuable resources available online. For those interested in studying the Quran and Arabic in an easy-to-understand way, check out Shaykhi. This website offers a range of tools to help you on your learning journey, making it easier to connect with the sacred text and its language.
In conclusion, the rules for brushing teeth during Ramadan are simple but important. By following these guidelines, you can maintain your oral hygiene and keep your fast intact. Take care of yourself spiritually and physically during this blessed month, and make the most of your time for learning and reflection.

The Importance of Daily Prayers in Islam
Prayer is a central practice in the life of a Muslim, and one of the fundamental aspects of worship is the obligation to pray five times a day. This practice, known as Salah, serves as a vital connection between the believer and Allah. It’s a routine that helps Muslims maintain a sense of spirituality throughout their daily lives.
So, what does the Quran say about praying 5 times a day? The Quran emphasizes the importance of regular prayer, which is not just a recommendation but a command. One of the verses that directly mentions prayer is found in Surah Al-Baqarah (2:238), where it states, "Guard strictly your prayers, especially the middle prayer, and stand before Allah in obedience." This verse highlights the necessity of being mindful and consistent in performing prayers.
The five daily prayers are distributed throughout the day, allowing Muslims to pause and reflect, regardless of their busy schedules. These prayers occur at specific times: Fajr at dawn, Dhuhr just after noon, Asr in the afternoon, Maghrib at sunset, and Isha at night. Each prayer serves as a reminder of faith, encourages discipline, and fosters a sense of community, especially when performed in congregation.
Another important aspect of these prayers is their role in personal development. They provide a structure to the day, instilling a rhythm that can enhance focus and mindfulness. When Muslims come together for prayers, they also build a sense of unity and support within their communities.
The Quran further emphasizes the spiritual benefits of prayer. In Surah Al-Isra (17:78), it is stated, "Establish prayer at the decline of the sun until the darkness of the night and the Quran at dawn. Indeed, the recitation of the Quran at dawn is ever witnessed." This verse shows that the act of praying and reciting the Quran goes hand in hand, reinforcing the importance of both in a Muslim's life.
Learning about the Quran and the significance of prayer can deepen one's understanding and appreciation of these practices. For those looking to explore the Quran more thoroughly, visiting Riwaq Al-Quran can be a great resource. The website offers a variety of tools and information that can help you connect more deeply with the text and its teachings.
In conclusion, praying five times a day is not just a ritual; it is an essential part of a Muslim’s faith and practice. The Quran underscores this commitment, illustrating the significance of maintaining this connection with Allah. By integrating these prayers into daily life, Muslims cultivate a sense of discipline, community, and spirituality that enriches their journey of faith.
