اَلسَّـــــلامُ عَلَــيــْكُمْ وَرَحْمَـــةُاللهِ وَبَرَكَــاتُهُ 🌸 أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ 🌸 ⭐ MEASURE YOUR SALAH In Which Category Do You Belong? Ibn al-Qayyim (raḥimahullāh) described ṣalāh as the scale by which you can measure yourself. Ṣalāh is a measure of your progress in your journey to Allah(subḥānahū wa taʿālā), measuring whether you lag behind or are far into your journey on this path to Him. It is a gauge of your īmān and your honesty with Him. 🎗️1.Will Be Punished • He is negligent in his wuḍū and the prescribed times • He is negligent in the limits and essential pillars of the prayer 🎗️2.Will Be Held Accountable • He safeguards the times, limits, outward pillars and wuḍū • However, he is distracted by the devils’ whispers 🎗️3.Will Be Forgiven • He upholds the limits and essential pillars • In ṣalāh, he is in a constant battle with the devils, trying to ward off their whispers. 🎗️4.Will Be Rewarded • He stands in prayer, perfecting its rights, limits and pillars • His heart is engrossed in safeguarding its limits and rules. His focus remains fully on performing the prayer as it ought to be, completely and perfectly. 🎗️5.Will Be Close To His Lord • He stands in prayer and establishes it as the fourth does, but along with this, he places his heart before his Lord. In this state, he beholds his Lord – ever vigilant before Him, filled with His love and glory – as if, seeing Him, he is physically present before Him. • Therefore, the distractions and the whispers vanish, as the veil is lifted between him and his Lord. The difference between this person in his prayer and everyone else is as vast as the distance between the heaven and the earth, for he is occupied solely with his Lord, in which he finds his source of sheer delight ❍┈─┅═••࿇✠ ࿇••┅─┄❍ WhatsApp (Only for sisters 🧕) - https://chat.whatsapp.com/GMmLlVv3SL1IZOMvGn2LU9 Telegram - https://T.me/Gemsofjannah98 Instagram - https://instagram.com/gemsofjannah_98?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==1

⛱️ ﷽ ⛱️ ✨ How to Find Yourself Again If You’re Lost: A Muslim Woman’s Guide to Getting Unstuck ✨ In the last week’s post, we read that- Feeling lost often stems from major life transitions, monotonous routines, or a disconnect from your past and future self. These experiences can leave you feeling stuck, uninspired, and unsure of your purpose. It's possible to experience all these challenges simultaneously, making it harder to feel like your true self. Post #2 🌸 If any of the above sounds like you, trust me, we’ve been there. Somehow, sometimes it’s weirdly possible to experience all 3 of the above at once. Here are some ways to get unstuck and find meaning in your life again. - Make peace with the season of life you’re in. - Practice consistent self-care. - Embrace discomfort as a sign that you’re changing. - Sit with yourself in a quiet place and reflect. - Don’t get caught in the trap of catastrophising. 1. Make peace with the season of life you’re in. Some phases of life may require more service to others than self-focus. Instead of resisting, embrace these moments with gratitude, knowing Allah has entrusted you with the care of those around you. Reflect on the wisdom of serving others, as it is a form of worship that brings you closer to Allah. The Prophet ﷺ said: "The best of people are those that bring the most benefit to others." [Sunan al-Kubra] Even when your hands feel empty, your heart can still give—kindness, warmth, and comfort. These are forms of charity (sadaqah) that can uplift both you and those you help. If you’re processing lingering trauma or grief, be patient and gentle with yourself. Allow yourself to feel and process emotions, but anchor your reflections in the understanding that every trial carries a divine lesson. Allah reminds us: "Indeed, with hardship comes ease." (Qur’an 94:6) Turn to Allah in dua and seek His guidance and healing, trusting that every phase of life is a stepping stone toward His mercy and wisdom.

اَلسَّـــــلامُ عَلَــيــْكُمْ وَرَحْمَـــةُاللهِ وَبَرَكَــاتُهُ🌸 أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ🌸 🎗️THE SALAH & KHUSHU OF THE PROPHET ﷺ ⭐An Incredible Account The following ḥadīth is one of the most amazing accounts of the perfection and quality of the Prophet’s ﷺ ṣalāh: Ḥudhayfah (raḍiy Allāhu ʿanhu) said, “I prayed with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ one night and he started reciting Sūrah al-Baqarah. I said to myself that he will do rukūʿ at the end of one hundred āyāt, but he carried on reciting . I then said to myself that he will perhaps recite the whole sūrah in a rakʿah, and he carried on reciting. (At the end of Sūrah al-Baqarah ), I said to myself that he will (now) go into rukūʿ. However, he then started Sūrah al-Nisā', and recited it. He then started Sūrah Āl ʿImrān and recited it slowly. When he recited the āyāt which entailed the glorification of Allah (tasbīḥ), he glorified Him. When he recited the āyāt which entailed asking (duʿā’), he would ask Allah. And when he recited the āyāt which entailed the protection of Allah, he sought His protection. He ﷺ then went into rukūʿ and said, ‘How Perfect is my Lord, the Magnificent.’ His bowing lasted about the same length of time as his standing. He then said, ‘May Allah respond to the one who has praised Him’, and he then stood for a long time, about the same length of time as he had spent in bowing. He then performed sajdah and said, ‘How Perfect is my Lord, the Most Exalted’, and his prostration lasted nearly the same length of time as his standing” (Muslim). Allāhu Akbar! Go back and read this ḥadīth again to fully appreciate its significance. Can you imagine what the ṣalāh of Rasūlullāh ﷺ was like? The above ḥadīth gives us a glimpse of the noble and pure love he ﷺ had for his Creator and Master (ʿazza wa jall). The Prophet ﷺ at the time was over the age of fifty. Despite this, along with the responsibilities he shouldered throughout the day, he still spent hours at night in standing, bowing and prostrating to his Lord. ❍┈─┅═••࿇✠ ࿇••┅─┄❍ WhatsApp (Only for sisters 🧕) - https://chat.whatsapp.com/GMmLlVv3SL1IZOMvGn2LU9 Telegram - https://T.me/Gemsofjannah98 Instagram - https://instagram.com/gemsofjannah_98?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==1

When Ibn ʿUmayr asked ʿĀ’ishah (rad‌iy Alla‌hu ʿanha‌) to tell them about the most amazing thing which she had witnessed from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, she cried. She then said, “He got up one night and said, ‘O ʿĀ’ishah, leave me to worship my Lord.’ I told him, ‘By Allah, indeed I love to be with you, and I love what makes you happy.’ So he stood up, performed wuḍū and then stood to pray. He continued to cry until his lap became wet. He then cried and continued to cry until the ground became wet. When Bilāl (raḍiy Allāhu ʿanhu) came to give the call to prayer and saw him crying, he said, ‘O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, are you crying when Allah has forgiven all your previous and upcoming sins?’ He replied, ‘Should I not be a grateful slave? Certain āyāt were revealed to me last night; woe to the one who recites them and does not ponder over what they contain (the last ten āyāt of Sūrah Āl ʿImrān, 3:190-200)’” (Ibn Ḥibbān). Another moving ḥadīth relates how he ﷺ cried through the night in the Battle of Badr. ʿAli b. Abī Ṭālib (raḍiy Allāhu ʿanhu) said, “There wasn’t a horseman amongst us on the day of Badr except for Miqdād (raḍiy Allāhu ʿanhu). I observed that all of us were sleeping except the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who was under a tree, praying and crying until the morning” (Aḥmad). ❍┈─┅═••࿇✠ ࿇••┅─┄❍ WhatsApp (Only for sisters 🧕) - https://chat.whatsapp.com/GMmLlVv3SL1IZOMvGn2LU9 Telegram - https://T.me/Gemsofjannah98 Instagram - https://instagram.com/gemsofjannah_98?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==1

⚜️🤎 Send lots of Salawat upon the Prophet 🤎⚜️ Sending ṣalāwat upon the Prophet ﷺ on Friday is better than on the rest of the days, and its night (Thursday night) is the best of nights.
