✅ Implement These Sunnah Acts Into Your Daily Life

💡 In addition to acting upon beneficial knowledge yourself, it's also important to share it with others:

📖 Narrated on the authority of Abu Mas'ud al-Ansari: ...The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “One who guides to something good has a reward similar to that of its doer.” [Muslim 1893a]

📖 Abu Huraira reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “When the human being dies, his deeds end except for three: ongoing charity, beneficial knowledge, or a righteous child who prays (makes du'aa) for him.” [Muslim 1631]

💎 “Whenever you have the opportunity to spread the Sunnah, spread it, and you will receive its reward and the reward of those who act upon it until the Day of Resurrection.” [Ibn Uthaymeen, Explanation of Riyadus-Saliheen 4/215]

➡️ “Whoever loves that his actions are not severed after he dies, then he should spread knowledge.” [Ibn Al-Jawzi, At-Tadhkirah No.55]

✅ Forgotten Sunnah - Praying 4 Units Of Voluntary Prayer Before The Obligatory Asr Prayer

🕖 The time to perform these 4 units of voluntary prayer begins when the time of Asr enters, and ends once you've completed the obligatory Asr prayer

💡These are prayed 2 by 2, not all together - you say the Salam after the first 2 rak’ahs (units) to conclude the prayer, and then you start over from the beginning for the last 2

📖 Ibn Umar narrated that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “(Voluntary) Prayers at night and during the day are to be offered two by two.” [Ibn Majah 1322; Graded Sahih by Al-Albani in Tamaam Al-Minnah pg. 240]

⚠️ These are not part of the 12 rak'ahs of Sunnan Al-Rawatib - click HERE for those

✅ The Proper Way To Do Sujood (Prostration)

💡 This is an easy graphic that shows the proper way to do sujood (prostration) in prayer for both men and women

📖 “All the above mentioned reports explaining the prayer of the Prophet ﷺ apply to both men and women. This is because there is nothing in the Sunnah that indicates the exemption of women from some of these actions. In fact, the statement of the Prophet ﷺ: "Pray as you have seen me praying (Bukhari 631)", is general so it includes women too.” [Al-Albani, Description of the Prophet's Prayer pg 175]

⚠️ There are many common mistakes being made in sujood, such as:

❌ Tip of the nose not making contact with the ground
❌ Forearms/elbows touching the ground
❌ Feet hanging above the ground
❌ Feet spread apart
❌ Toes not firmly planted

😀 In addition to what's pictured above, it's also important to keep your fingers close together - click HERE for a demonstration by Sheikh Aziz bin Farhan حَفِظَهُ ٱلله

📖 It is narrated on the authority of Abu Dharr who narrates that the Prophet ﷺ observed: “Three are the persons with whom Allah would not speak on the Day of Resurrection: the bestower of gift who does not give anything but by laying obligation on him, the seller of goods who sells them by taking false oath, and one who hangs low his lower garment.” [Muslim 106b]
