A believer should strive sincerely in the Last Ten Nights of Ramadān, and ponder over how quickly the month has passed―and likewise, his life will pass quickly―then he shall meet his Lord, and have to answer.
Allāh said about the loser, “He will say, ‘Alas! If only I had sent forth good deeds for my life!’ So, on that Day, none will punish as He will punish. And none will bind [the wrongdoer] as He will bind.” (Al-Fajr: 24-26)
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Whoever stands in prayer on Laylat al-Qadr with imān and hoping for reward, his previous sins will be forgiven.” (Al-Bukhāri)
And he (ﷺ) said: “There are those in the month of Ramadan in every day and every night whom Allah grants freedom from the Fire – and there is a supplication for every Muslim which will be granted.” (Al-Bazzār, Ahmad, Ibn Mājah).

Sometimes, we become negligent about our morning and evening adhkaar.
And when Allah tests us with something harmful then we realize how important it's to Recite adhkaar.
May Allah protect us and our families from all sorts of harm and aid us to Remember Him all the time.
Aameen!

“Forebearance is the Grave of Faults”
Abū al-Barakāt Ibn al-Anbārī states about his shaykh, Ibn al-Shajarī (d. 542 AH رحمه الله):
“He was dignified in his gatherings, with a noble bearing. Rarely did he speak a word in any assembly except that it contained refinement of character or refinement of learning.
One day, two men from among the descendants of ʿAlī (رضي الله عنه) came to him with a dispute. One of them began to complain, saying: ‘He has said such-and-such about me.’ So the sharīf (i.e., Ibn al-Shajarī, who was from noble lineage tracing back to the Prophet ﷺ) turned to him and said:
"يا بُنيّ احتمل ؛ فإنّ الإحتمال قبر المعايب" .
‘My son, be forbearing—for indeed forbearance is the grave of faults.’
This is a wise and beneficial saying, for many people have faults which disappear when they overlook the faults of others and remain silent about them, while many people who expose the faults of others end up acquiring faults they did not previously have.”
📖 Nuzhat al-Albāʾ fī Ṭabaqāt al-Udabāʾ, by Abū al-Barakāt Kamāl al-Dīn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Muḥammad al-Anṣārī al-Anbārī (d. 577 AH), ed. Ibrāhīm al-Sāmarāʾī (Zarqāʾ, Jordan: Maktabat al-Manār, 3rd ed., 1405/1985), 300.

A heartfelt advice to my sisters.
People who are good to you and know you since childhood can accept your Dawah easily.
Seek knowledge, act and give Dawah to your own people.
And marrying your cousin or someone from knowing people is much more better than searching someone online or marrying a stranger.
Because knowing people protect your honor while the stranger online can destroy your honor.
We don't believe in racism but for our own protection better to search someone from your own community.

He (عزَّ وجلّ) said:
مِن بَعْدِ أَن نَّزَغَ الشَّيْطَانُ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ إِخْوَتِي
“After Shayṭān (Satan) had sown enmity between me and my brothers.”
(Yūsuf, 12:100)
He did not say: “After they [his brothers] had sown enmity.” Rather, he associated the action to Shayṭān: the one who caused disunity and division between him and his brothers. This represents the very pinnacle of chivalry and symbolises his manliness and maturity.

“The Rāfiḍī Iranian Threat to Islam and the Muslims”
A Decade-Old Warning from the Imām Rabī’ bin Hādī ‘Umayr Al-Madkhalī (may Allah cover him with mercy):
In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Especially Merciful
The Rāfiḍī Iranian Threat to Islam and the Muslims
The newspaper al-Sharq al-Awsaṭ, in issue no. 13,561 dated Thursday (4th of Rabīʿ al-Ākhir, 1437 AH), published the following statement in part:
It said: “The commander of the Revolutionary Guard affirmed the readiness of approximately 200,000 fighters in Syria, Iraq, Yemen, Afghanistan, and Pakistan, considering the transformations in the Middle East region in recent years to be positive, as reported by the state-run Mehr News Agency. Jaʿfarī stated that he looks forward to encouraging the third generation of the revolution to support the Supreme Leader (Walī al-Faqīh) and the Islamic Republic in Iran, noting the importance of the presence of Iranian youth in the battles of Syria, Iraq, and Yemen.”
I say:
O assembly of Muslims throughout the Islamic world—be alert to the grave danger. Be alert to what Iran is devising and planning in terms of the destruction and crushing of Islam and the Muslims, due to the severity of its enmity toward Islam and the Muslims. Allah, the Exalted, said regarding the Jews:
“You will surely find the most intense of people in animosity toward the believers to be the Jews and those who associate others with Allah.” [al-Māʾidah: 82]
No Muslim doubts the severity of the enmity of the Jews and the polytheists toward those who believe in Allah and His Messengers, and that the Jews possess ambitions—yet these ambitions are limited to lands of the Muslims from the Nile to the Euphrates, and they do not seek to spread Judaism.
The enmity of the Rāfiḍah toward the Muslims combines the enmity of the Jews and the polytheists, and their ambitions are broader than those of the Jews, for they seek to seize the entirety of the Islamic world and to transform its people into Rāfiḍah—enemies of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, His Messenger ﷺ, and the noble Companions (may Allah be pleased with them), and those who follow them among the believers until this day.
Indeed, the Rāfiḍah possess among their doctrines of disbelief that which is not found among the Jews or the Christians:
1. Among them: the belief that the Imams possess knowledge of the unseen and exercise control over every atom in the universe—something that surpasses, in disbelief, the doctrines of the Jews and the polytheists.
2. Among them: that the Imams have the right to legislate, and they fabricate upon them legislative rulings of disbelief which neither the earth nor the heavens could bear. They legislate grave acts of disbelief and attribute them to the Household of the Prophet—whom Allah has declared innocent of such claims and purified from them.
This is despite their affirmation that the Messenger Muhammad ﷺ is the Seal of the Prophets and that his message is complete. Allah, the Exalted, said:
“This day I have perfected for you your religion, completed My favor upon you, and have approved for you Islam as your religion.” [al-Māʾidah: 3]
And because they acknowledge the statement of Allah, the Exalted:
“Or do they have partners who have legislated for them in religion that which Allah has not permitted?” [al-Shūrā: 21]
3. Among the acts of disbelief of the Rāfiḍah: their intense enmity toward the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and their declaring them disbelievers. Their objective in this is to invalidate the Islamic Sharīʿah—both the Book and the Sunnah—that radiant Sharīʿah which the Companions carried and conveyed with precision from Allah and His Messenger ﷺ. They strove mightily in conveying it and obligating the people with it, until entire nations entered this religion at their hands.

“The Rāfiḍī Iranian Threat to Islam and the Muslims” (continued)
…4. Among these many acts of disbelief: their reviling of the wives of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ (may Allah be pleased with them), and their slander against the Mother of the Believers ʿĀʾishah (may Allah be pleased with her), whom Allah declared innocent in numerous Qurʾānic verses. This slander, in the sight of every believer, ultimately returns upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ himself.
Thus, they portray his Companions—whom he nurtured upon faith, tawḥīd, and sincerity—in the most hideous images of disbelief, and they depict his noble, pure wives in the most vile of forms.
What enmity toward Allah, His Messenger, and the believers could surpass such a malignant enmity?
O assembly of Muslims everywhere—prepare yourselves to confront this danger and this destructive Iranian scheme by holding fast, all of you together, to the rope of Allah—in your beliefs, your acts of worship, your striving, your governance, your character, and in your allegiance and disavowal. Distance yourselves completely from all innovations and misguidance.
Unite upon the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of His Messenger ﷺ. If you realize these عظيمة demands, Allah will be pleased with you and grant you victory over your enemies—an unmistakable and decisive victory.
Allah, the Exalted, said:
“If you support Allah, He will support you and plant firmly your feet.” [Muḥammad: 7]
And He said:
“And if those who disbelieve had fought you, they would have turned their backs; then they would not find a protector or a helper. This is the established way of Allah which has occurred before—and you will never find in the way of Allah any change.” [al-Fatḥ: 22–23]
O assembly of Muslims—all of you, including the people of Yemen, Tunisia, Iraq, and Syria—realize sincere tawḥīd for Allah, and Allah will grant you might and honor you in this world and the Hereafter, and give you victory over your enemies.
Prepare yourselves with weaponry. I believe that you possess sufficient arms—and more than enough—to achieve victory over this stubborn Rāfiḍī enemy and others besides them.
I reaffirm what Allah has made binding upon you: complete adherence to His radiant Sharīʿah and its implementation across all domains—including the sovereignty (ḥākimiyyah) of Allah, which most Islamic states have abandoned. Thus, Allah has set upon them the enemies of Islam, who have humiliated them and trampled upon their dignity.
Rid yourselves of this destructive and ruinous disease by declaring the supremacy of Allah’s sovereignty and rejecting all that contradicts this supreme authority.
We hope that the Saudi government—committed to tawḥīd and the complete Sharīʿah—and its scholars will urge and encourage the Islamic nations to realize these great objectives.
Among them is the principle of ḥākimiyyah, which all Muslims must honor—including the people of Yemen, Tunisia, Iraq, and Syria—raising it high above their heads in pride, committing fully to it, and confronting its enemies, especially the Rāfiḍah.
May Allah grant success to all in that which He loves and is pleased with.
And may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muḥammad, his family, and his Companions.
