“No one besides Allah can rescue a soul from hardship.”

Q53 (Al-Najm): Verse 58

“Remember Me; I will remember you. And thank Me, and never be ungrateful.”

Q2 (Al-Baqarah): Verse 152

Ibn al-jawzī said:

and know that there is no muslim who increases in ṣalawāt to muḥammad ﷺ except that:

• Allāh enlightens the slave’s heart
• He forgives the slave’s sins
• He expands the slave’s chest
• He eases the slave’s affairs.

صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم

Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله:

“Whoever reflects upon the dunya and hereafter will know that he cannot attain one of them except with difficulty, so let him bare the difficulty for the one that is better and more lasting."

[al-Fawā’id | Pg. 37]

Alhamdulillah, It's Jum'ah!

1. Send lots of salawat on our beloved Prophet ﷺ🤍

2. Ghusl, Perfume, Dress well & go to the Masjid early.

3). Read Surah Al-Kahf

4. Say lots of du'a (especially between Asr and Maghrib)

Share with others!

Don't forget to read surah al Kahf today!

The Messenger ﷺ said: ‘Whoever reads Surat al-Kahf on the day of Jumu’ah, a light will shine for him from beneath his feet to the clouds of the sky, which will shine for him on the Day of Resurrection, and he will be forgiven (his sins) between the two Fridays.’”

It’s Friday so send abundance of salawat upon the prophet ﷺ

اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ كَمَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَعَلَى آلِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ إِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ

No matter how far you feel you have fallen, the door of forgiveness remains open.

Allah says:

“Do not lose hope in Allah’s mercy. Indeed, Allah forgives all sins.”
(39:53)

Return to Allah sincerely. Seek His forgiveness again & again. Ur past does not have to define ur future.

Ibn Taymiyyah said: .

“It is NOT PERMISSIBLE for anyone to despair of Allāh’s Mercy EVEN IF his sins are ENORMOUS.”

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "A believer owes another believer five rights: responding to greetings, visiting him in illness, following his funeral, accepting his invitation, and saying ‘Yarhamuk-Allah (May Allah have mercy on you),’ when he says ‘Al-hamdu lillah (Praise be to Allah)’ after sneezing."

The Messenger ﷺ said:

"Make things easy and do not make them difficult; give glad tidings and do not drive people away." Hadith

Whoever competes with you in religiousness, compete with him, and whoever competes with you in the worldly life, [leave it with him and] throw it in his face.

Ibn-Qayyim رحمه اللہ said:

The state of the slave in the grave is like the state of the heart in the chest. So if you want to know the state of your grave; look at the state of your heart in your chest.
