"If dark skin wasn't worthy of praise The scriptures written in pale papers of holy books wouldn't have been in dark ink The first and most beautiful Azan wouldn't have been delivered by Bilal R.a He wouldn't have been the first Muazzin ever He wouldn't have been called as the "Leader of Azan" He wouldn't have preceded the footsteps of Prophet Muhammad in Jannah ( in Prophet's dream) He wouldn't have been one of the most trusted companions of Prophet Muhammad. Julaybeeb wouldn't have been searched for by Prophet Muhammad after war Julaybeeb wouldn't have been cried for by Prophet Muhammad Julaybeeb wouldn't have had the honour of having his grave dug and being buried by the hands of Prophet Muhammad. Julaybeeb wouldn't have been treated by Prophet Muhammad as someone from his own clan. Prophet Muhammad wouldn't have told "Julaybeeb comes from me, and I come from him." Umm Ayman wouldn't have been a primary care taker of Prophet Muhammad when he was a child. Umm Ayman wouldn't have been told by Prophet Muhammad to his companions that "if you want to marry a lady from the people of paradise, marry Umm Ayman." Usamah bin Zayd's upbringing wouldn't have been done in Prophet Muhammad's household Usamah bin Zayd wouldn't have lead an army Usamah bin Zayd wouldn't have been one of the most beloved companions of Prophet Muhammad. Sa'ad Al Aswad wouldn't have been assured by Prophet Muhammad that he's entitled to the same reward as any other believer when he questioned his status because of his dark complexion. Sa'ad Al Aswad wouldn't have been held in the lap of Prophet Muhammad while he cried over his martyrdom in a battle. Luqman wouldn't have had a Surah in Quran named after him. Luqman wouldn't have been bestowed the gift of heightened wisdom from Allah. Bilal, Suhayb, Khabbab, 'Ammar, Mihja', Salman, Salim, 'Amir bin Quhayrah wouldn't have had a verse dedicated to them in Quran (Surah 6, ayah 52) So tell me, how dare you degrade what's best in the eyes of Allah and His Prophet?" - Manaalficient #writersofinstagram #writing #allah #writingcommunity #wordsofwisdom #positivevibes #tumblr #wordstoliveby #poetsofinstagram #poetrycommunity #poetsofig #deen https://www.instagram.com/p/CBleyc8lg-L/?igshid=10fq170zdo7sw
🥰🥰🥰reading this made me feel motivated
Ramadan is the month of mercy, not the month of perfection. You'll still make mistakes, and you'll still fall short at times. But ٱللَّٰه's mercy remains. Seek it. Don't give up.💙🕊️
Indeed in the remembrance of Allāh ﷻ, the peace of every creature relies. I have noticed that whenever I keep my heart and mouth moist in the remembrance of my Lord— my anguish, worries and anxiety rolls over as if it never existed in the first place. Not that the problem has forever wiped its existence, and not that it is impossible for my Rabb to make it happen, but the way I approach it now changes the entire plot.
أَسْتَغْفِرُ ٱللّٰهَ
أَسْتَغْفِرُ ٱللّٰهَ
أَسْتَغْفِرُ ٱللّٰهَ
Keep repeating this dhikr like a chant. Ask for forgiveness whenever you can. Acknowledge that all human beings are born to err, and our Lord ﷻ loves to forgive us. Indeed, he is Al Gafoor.
This world isn't permanent. These worries aren't permanent. These moments of happiness aren't permanent. These sorrows aren't permanent. These achievements aren't permanent. These sicknesses aren't permanent. These failures aren't permanent. Your life isn't permanent. My life isn't permanent.
You know what is permanent? The unlimited mercy of Allāh ﷻ. The Throne of Allāh ﷻ. The Forgiving attribute of Allāh ﷻ. The immeasurable love of Allāh ﷻ. That out of all the creation of this universe, we are his favorites. That we are created in our best mould by the One and Only Fashioner. Al Mussawir.
So, close that distance between your face and the ground and completely submit yourself into His ﷻ will and decree. Your life is going to change for the best. And In Sha Allah, your Hereafter will thank you for this change.
It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
"Whoever fasts Ramadan out of faith and the hope of reward will be forgiven his previous sins.”
—Sunan Ibn Majah 1641
Now who doesn't want their sins to be forgiven? To be one of the residents of Jannah. To reside under the shadows of trees, to enjoy the flowing rivers. For us to attain the biggest success of this world and the Hereafter which is undoubtedly Jannah, it is essential to work for it. This longanimity of fasts, insatiable thirst, will all be rewarded in the best way possible. May Allāh ﷻ allow us to be the one entering "Rayyan" —one of the eight gates of Heaven for the people who observed fasts only for the sake of Allāh ﷻ.
It was narrated that 'Aishah (R.A) said:
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to say:
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَ عُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا عَمِلْتُ وَمِنْ شَرِّ مَا لَمْ أَعْمَلْ
"O Allah, I seek refuge with You from the evil of what I have done and from the evil of what I have not done yet."
—Sunan an-Nasa'i 5526
One of the greatest virtues of praying Taraweeh in the mosque, behind the Imam.
Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said:
"Whoever prays Qiyam with the Imam until he finishes, Allah (SWT) will record for him the Qiyam of a (whole) night."
—Sunan an-Nasa'i 1605
SubhanAllah! Indeed, Allāh ﷻ is THE MERCIFUL.
Hazrat Ali (رضي الله عنه) reported:
A slave who had made a contract with his master to pay for his freedom, came to me and said: "I am unable to fulfill my obligation, so help me." He said to him: "Shall I not teach you a supplication which the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) taught me? It will surely prove so effective that if you have a debt as large as a huge mountain, Allah will surely pay it for you. Say:
اللّهُمَّ اكْفِنِي بِحَلَالِكَ عَنْ حَرَامِكَ، وَأغْنِنِي بِفَضْلِكَ عَمَّن سِوَاكَ
"(O Allah! Grant me enough of what You make lawful so that I may dispense with what You make unlawful, and enable me by Your Grace to dispense with all but You)."
—Riyad as-Salihin 1486
Anytime you see a goodness in me, it's all because of the MERCY of Allāh ﷻ that He ﷻ has chosen me to be committing these acts. Whether it's patience, kindness, steadfastness, intelligence, good character, justice— the list goes on. It's always Allah's mercy. It's the only truth. Any achievement you see of mine is already decreed by Allāh ﷻ. Nothing is in my hand and nothing will be. Even the choice of my Sajdah is already been decided by my Lord ﷻ up there. Subsequently, it opens a new door of gratitude since nothing could ever be possible without Him ﷻ. Allāh ﷻ the Lord of the WORLDS. Not just the life which is born on earth, the lives of the millions of worlds which are incomprehensible to our limited mind. Yet, Allah ﷻ is the most Merciful towards me! It's very good to be reminded of your position and humble yourself before "Al-Malik".
If a heart becomes attached to anything other than Allah, Allah makes him dependent on what he is attached to. And he will be betrayed by it.❞
— Ibn Al-Qayyim (raḥimahullāh)
Ya Allāh ﷻ, please make me dependant on YOU only. You're my Rabb, my Lord, my Peace. Don't make me walk on any road that takes me farther away from you, leaving me all astray. Make me independent of everything. You, your love, your nearness, your promises suffice me.
We all as Muslims try our best to pray the five obligatory Salahs! Now as important that is, we must strive to attain a deeper connection with Allāh ﷻ in our prayers by knowing the meaning of our utterances. So here is the translation of the DUA which we begin our prayer with.
سُبْحَانَكَ اللَّهُمَّ وَبِحَمْدِكَ وَتَبَارَكَ اسْمُكَ وَتَعَالَى جَدُّكَ وَلاَ إِلَهَ غَيْرُكَ
“Glorious You are O Allah, and with Your praise, and blessed is Your Name, and exalted is Your majesty, and none has the right to be worshipped but You.”
Let's be mindful of our duas, recitation in our prayers. In Sha Allah, Allāh ﷻ will be pleased with our efforts.
اَفَمَنْ يَّمْشِيْ مُكِبًّا عَلٰي وَجْهِهٖۤ اَهْدٰۤي اَمَّنْ يَّمْشِيْ سَوِيًّا عَلٰي صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِيْمٍ
"Who is ˹rightly˺ guided: the one who crawls facedown or the one who walks upright on the Straight Path?"
—Al-Mulk 67:22
Narrated `Aisha رضي الله عنها:
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Search for the Night of Qadr in the odd nights of the last ten days of Ramadan."
—Sahih al-Bukhari, Book 32, Hadith 4
Eid Mubarak from me and my family to yours.
May the spirit of Eid draw us nearer to our cherished ones, fortifying the ties of companionship.As we rejoice in Eid, let's keep in mind the same significance of compassion, magnanimity, and reconciliation. May your homes be filled with laughter and your hearts with love. And lastly, may Allah ﷻ accept our good deeds and grant us the everlasting happiness. Ameen Sum Ameen.✨🤍
Best Regards.

Haşr Suresi Hakkında
Medine döneminde inmiştir. 24 âyettir. Sûre, adını ikinci ayette geçen “elHaşr” kelimesinden almıştır. Haşr, toplamak demektir. Sûrede başlıca,Medine’de yaşamakta olan ve Hz.Peygamberle yaptıkları antlaşmaya ihanet ederek İslâm toplumunu ortadan kaldırmak üzere Mekkeli müşriklerle ittifak yapan Nadîroğulları’nın Medine’den topluca sürülmesi hadisesi ile Yahudilerle antlaşma yapan münafıklar konu edilmektedir.
Özellikle sûrenin ilk âyeti ile son üç âyetinde, bütün varlıkların Allah’ı eksikliklerden tenzih ettiği, O’nun birliği, yüceliği, ilminin sınırsızlığı, rahmet ve şefkatinin enginliği, irade ve gücünün mutlaklığı, eşsiz yaratıcı olduğu belirtilerek kalplere tevhid inancının, Allah sevgisi ve saygısının yerleştirilmesi hedeflenmektedir. 2-10. âyetlerde antlaşmalarını bozan bir yahudi kabilesinin başına gelen sürgün felâketi örnek gösterilip bundan ibret alınması istenmekte ve müslümanlara toplum olarak elde edilen imkânların paylaştırılması konusunda yol gösterilip ideal mümin tipiyle ilgili tasvirler yapılmaktadır. 11-17. âyetlerde müslüman göründükleri halde ahitlerini bozan Ehl-i kitap’la gizli ilişkiler kurarak türlü entrikalar çeviren münafıkların ve yandaşlarının bazı zaaflarına değinilerek müslümanlar hem bu tür davranışlardan sakındırılmakta hem de kendilerine moral verilmektedir. Müteakip âyetlerde her insanın yapması gereken nefis muhasebesinin ve ebedî hayat için hazırlıklı olunmasının önemine ve sonuçlarına dikkat çekilmekte; Kur’an’a muhatap olmanın ne büyük şeref olduğunu ama aynı zamanda ne büyük sorumluluk getirdiğini hatırlatan bir örnek verilmektedir (İngiliz şarkiyatçısı Richard Bell’in Haşr sûresiyle ilgili bir makalesinde sûredeki âyetlerin tertibiyle ilgili olarak ileri sürdüğü görüşün eleştirisi için bk. Emin Işık, “Haşr Sûresi”, DİA, XVI, 426).
"Ateşin karşısında durdurulup da,
"Ah, keşke dünyaya geri döndürülsek de Rabbimizin âyetlerini yalanlamasak ve mü'minlerden olsak" dedikleri vakit (hallerini) bir görsen!"
En'am Suresi 27. Ayet
Fâtır sûresi Mekke’de nâzil olmuştur. 45 âyettir. İsmini 1. âyette geçen Cenâb-ı Hakk’ın اَلْفَاطِرُ (Fâtır) sıfatından alır. Buna “Melâike” sûresi de denilir. Resmî tertîbe göre 35, iniş sırasına göre 43. sûredir.
Sûre ağırlıklı olarak Allah’ın varlığı, birliği ve kudretinin kâinatta tecelli eden pek çok delillerinden söz ederek, O’nun kulluğa lâyık tek ilâh olduğu fikrini işler. Yaratan O’dur, rızık veren O’dur, izzet ve şeref veren O’dur. O zengin ve müstağnî, insanlar ise O’na sonsuz derecede muhtaçtır. Bütün izzet ve şeref yalnızca O’na mahsus olduğundan, izzet ve şeref isteyenler için O’na inanmak, O’na teslim olmak, yalnızca O’na kul köle olmak zarûrîdir. Acı ve tatlı deniz, gece ile gündüz, âmâ ile gören, karanlıkla aydınlık, ölü ile diri gibi âlemde birbirinin zıddı olarak tecelli eden varlık ve olaylar, iman ile küfrün hakikatini anlamak için birer misaldir. İman güzelliklerin, küfür ise kötülüklerin temsilcisidir. Bu sebeple sûrede iman ehlinin nâil olacağı ebedi mutlulukla, küfür ehlinin feci halleri canlı birer tablo halinde arz edilir. İnsanların zulmü ve nankörlüğüne rağmen Cenâb-ı Hakk’ın onlara mühlet verdiği, dolayısıyla bu mühletin iyi değerlendirilmesi gereği üzerinde durulur.
