“O My beloved son! If you are seeking wealth, then seek it with contentment, for whoever does not have contentment, no [amount of] money will suffice him.”

[ARIF AHMED @MOULANAARIF]

A lot of people say that "I speak out, I don't fear anyone, I don't mince words".

Undoubtedly speaking against oppression, aggression is commendable and required.

But perfection is learning and knowing when to remain silent.

Silence many a times speaks volumes!!

[ARIF AHMED @MOULANAARIF]

Rasulullah ﷺ said,

 “The Muazzins will have the longest necks of the people on the Day of Resurrection (denoting honour & great reward).”

Fasting on ‘Ashura [10th of Muharram].

Fasting ten days [i.e., the first nine days of Dhul Hijjah].

Fasting three days every month.

Two rak’ahs [Sunnah] before Fajr.

Abu Dawud,

The Sahabah (radiyallahu ‘anhum) asked, “Not even Jihad?” Rasulullah ﷺ said, “Not even Jihad, except if a man goes out, endangering himself and his wealth but does not return with anything/ is martyred.”

Bukhari

[ARIF AHMED @MOULANAARIF]

Rasulullah ﷺ said:
“There are no days when good deeds are better than during these days [1st 10 days of Dhul Hijjah]”.

[ARIF AHMED @MOULANAARIF]

A Friday that occurs in the 10 days of Dhul Hijjah is more distinguished to any other Friday of the year.”

- Hafiz Ibn Hajar (Rahimahullah)

[ARIF AHMED @MOULANAARIF]

Never complain that
why is Allah delaying in accepting my Du'aa,
rather thank Allah that He is not punishing you for your sins immediately.

[ARIF AHMED @MOULANAARIF]

Sayyiduna Abu Umamah Radiyallahu anhu reported that Rasulullah ﷺ said,

 “Whoever shows mercy to an animal when slaughtering, Allah Ta’ala will have mercy on him on the Day of Qiyamah.”

[ARIF AHMED @MOULANAARIF]

"When you see in your children any such thing (or trait) that displeases you, then strive to please your Lord and repent in His court; because this (conduct of your child) is actually the result of some action of yours that has been brought before you."

[ARIF AHMED @MOULANAARIF]

“O son of Adam! Sell this life for the next and you win both of them. Sell the next life for this and you lose both of them.”
