Staying up to the early hours of the morning to watch a football match shows that we willingly make time and effort for what we truly love.
The problem isn’t a lack of ability, it’s a matter of priority. It’s not that our bodies are incapable; it’s that our determination and energy are often directed toward something else.
If we can stay awake for hours for temporary entertainment, then surely we can stand before Allah for just a few minutes in salah.
May Allah make His love greater than every other love in our hearts, make salah beloved to us, and grant us the strength to worship Him sincerely and consistently. Aameen.🤲🏻
“Our Lord, we have wronged ourselves, and if You do not forgive us and have mercy upon us, we will surely be among the losers.”
— Qur’an 7:23
Appreciate your Taraweeh Imams.
They’ve spent the whole day revising, making sure every verse is perfect.
Most of their effort goes unseen; the hours of recitation, the repetition, the pressure not to make mistakes.
May Allah accept their efforts. Ameen

Ramaḍān Challenge
For the next 40 days, let us make a firm intention and sincere effort to:
1. Perform all our obligatory prayers on time with full devotion.
2. Establish Tahajjud, Ishrāq, Chasht, and Awwābīn prayers.
3. Cry to Allāh, seek forgiveness (Istighfār), and engage in heart-felr Du'ā before dawn and before sunset.
4. Abstain completely from all sins.
5. Follow the Sunnah (actions, Du'ās and entire way of life) to the best of our ability.
6. Improve our character and interactions with others.
7. Spend our time wisely and productively.
8. Recite more Qur’ān than we have ever recited in any previous Ramaḍān.
9. Increase in Dhikr (remembrance of Allāh) throughout the day.
10. Spend so much charity that we feel the pinch, and give in the path of Allāh that which we love most.
Then let us try to spend the remaining of the year with the same spirit, to the best of our ability, in shā Allāh.
Watch how your relationship with Allāh deepens.
Witness your life transform. Experience a happiness unlike any other and see how so many blessings will unfold in your life, in shā Allāh.
Any one ready?
We buy things we don’t need with money we don’t have.
This has transformed us from a needs-based society to a wants-based society.Gone are the days where we would ask,
“Do we need this?”
Now this seems to be an irrelevance.What we concern ourselves now with is:
“Do we want this?”
Our community leader, a giant in his knowledge, social worker, Ustaadh and mentor to many of our Ulama and community members is critically ill in India.
May Allāh grant Hazrat Moulana Salim Saheb a complete and speedy recovery.
Aameen.
Make Du'ā to have lots and lots of Kitābs.
But make even more Du'ā to have shelves for all those books.
And make even more Du'ā to have a library for those shelves.
And make even more Du'ā to have the opportunity to read & benefit from all those books in your personal library.
For believers, the passing of time is rarely ever a source of happiness. They're meant to be moments of introspection, change, and sincere repentance. A year has passed on, a year closer to our deaths.
When in Rome… https://t.co/Uay1WskPCv
Islam teaches us that “No matter where you are – even if you are in Rome – do as Nabi (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) and the Sahaabah (radhiyallahu ‘anhum) did.”
We must not be swayed/influenced by the culture /customs of the disbelievers.
Tell every person that you know going for Haj two things:
1) Convey my greetings to the Prophet (sallAllahu alayhi wa sallam)
2) Make Dua for me in Makkah, Madinah and Arafah.
If you are going for Haj and you read this, please do those two things for me.
