The Blessing of Benefiting Others ʿAbdullaah ibn ʿUmar رضي الله عنهما: The Messenger of Allaah ﷺ said: “Indeed, Allaah has people whom He has specially chosen for His blessings for the benefit of His servants. He keeps them in possession of those blessings so long as they give them to others. But when they withhold them, He takes them away from them and transfers them to others.” Ḥasan li-ghayrihi [hasan due to supporting chains]. In Ṣaḥīḥ at-Targhīb (6517). عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ: إِنَّ لِلَّهِ أَقْوَامًا اخْتَصَّهُمْ بِالنِّعَمِ لِمَنَافِعِ الْعِبَادِ، يُقِرُّهُمْ فِيهَا مَا بَذَلُوهَا، فَإِذَا مَنَعُوهَا نَزَعَهَا مِنْهُمْ، فَحَوَّلَهَا إِلَى غَيْرِهِمْ. حسن لغيره ‹صحيح الترغيب› (6517) Al-Fuḍayl ibn ʿIyāḍ, may Allaah have mercy upon him, said: “Do you not know that the people’s need of you is a blessing from Allaah upon you? So beware of becoming weary and annoyed by people’s needs, lest the blessings become calamities.” Fayḍ al-Qadīr (5/456).

Assalāmu ʿAlaikum wa Raḥmatullāhi wa Barakātuh, dear sisters. 🤍🌷 🌸 Welcome to Week 6 of Homes of Barakah Alḥamdulillāh, by the permission of Allah, we have entered Week 2 of our Salah-Centered Homes theme. Last week, we reflected on creating a special place for Salah within our homes. This week, we take another important step: 🌷 Making Salah a Priority as a Family A Muslim home is not defined by its size, furniture or decoration. Rather, its beauty lies in the remembrance of Allah and in the worship established within it. When Salah becomes a true priority in our homes, it begins to shape the rhythm of our entire day. Instead of trying to “fit Salah in” between everything else, we begin arranging our lives around Salah. Allah ﷻ says: “And enjoin prayer upon your family and be steadfast therein. We ask you not for provision; We provide for you. And the good end is for righteousness.” (Sūrah Ṭā Hā 20:132) What a beautiful responsibility Allah ﷻ has placed upon us—to encourage our families towards Salah and remain patient and consistent in doing so. The Prophet ﷺ also said: “Command your children to pray when they are seven years old…” (Sunan Abī Dāwūd 495; authenticated by Shaykh al-Albānī رحمه الله) This reminds us that a Salah-centred family is built intentionally and gradually. We don’t wait until children are older to introduce them to prayer. We nurture love for Salah through our own example, gentle reminders and a home environment where prayer is valued. And the importance of Salah is immense. The Prophet ﷺ said: “The first deed for which a servant will be called to account on the Day of Resurrection is his prayer…” (Sunan al-Tirmidhī 413; authenticated by Shaykh al-Albānī رحمه الله) If Salah is among the first matters about which we will be questioned, then how much more should we strive to protect it within our homes? 🌸 So, what will we work on together this week? 📖 UNDERSTAND Why making Salah a priority at home brings goodness and barakah into our lives. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 IMPLEMENT Simple, practical ways to create a Salah-focused environment for ourselves and our families. 🕰️ ORGANISE Learning to arrange our routines around the prayer times rather than trying to squeeze Salah into whatever time is left. 🤍 INSPIRE Encouraging ourselves and our families towards Salah through our own example, gentle reminders and love for the prayer. 🌿 Your little practice for this week Choose one small change that can help make Salah more central to your household. Perhaps you could: • Pause household activities when the adhān is called. • Prepare for Salah a little earlier rather than waiting until the last moment. • Arrange meals or outings around prayer times. • Gently remind your family when it is time for Salah. • Make your own Salah more visible to your children so they grow up seeing prayer as a natural part of life. You don’t need to transform your entire household overnight. Choose one small step. Do it consistently. Let it become a habit. 🌱 And remember, dear sisters, this journey is not about creating a “perfect” Muslim home. It is about slowly creating a home where Allah is remembered, Salah is protected, and worship becomes part of the rhythm of everyday life. So let us continue this journey together—one week, one habit and one small step at a time. 🤍 May Allah ﷻ make Salah beloved to our hearts, establish us and our families firmly upon it, and make our homes places where Salah is established, protected and loved. Let’s continue this journey together for the sake of Allah. 🤍 — Homes of Barakah By كنوز العلم للنسا Join us on Whatsapp at: https://chat.whatsapp.com/Duy2PdaijcXDP0QG0XOInt?mode=gi_t Sisters Only.

Evil Eye Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله said: “It is an arrow, shot by the one who is jealous or (or is known) for giving evil-eye towards the one who is envied – hitting (the target) sometimes and missing it sometimes. So if it is encountered while uncovered and without protection, then the person is affected by it. But no doubt, if it is encountered while taking precaution, then it will not affect him; rather it may happen that this arrow (evil-eye) is returned back to the owner himself (i.e. the owner is affected by his own evil-eye).” [Zaad al-Ma`aad | 4/154]

Path of Knowledge, Justice, Guidance and Protection Shaykh al-Islām Ibn Taymiyyah (رحمه الله) said : "Adhering to the Sunnah protects a person from the evil of his own soul and from Satan without resorting to innovated methods. Those who follow such innovations will inevitably fall into burdens and shackles. Even if they have an interpretation they believe excuses them, they will still inevitably end up following their desires. For this reason, the people of innovation are called the people of desires (Ahl al-Ahwāʾ). The path of the Sunnah is one of knowledge, justice, and guidance, whereas innovation is marked by ignorance and injustice, and it involves following conjecture and the desires of the soul." 📚Majmūʿ al-Fatāwā (10/568) See also: Minhāj as-Sunnah (1/20) and Jāmiʿ al-Masāʾil (5/390).

From the Means of entering Paradise and causes of entering Hell-Fire Shaykh ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz ibn Bāz ( رحمه الله) said:"Maintaining the ties of kinship is among the causes of entering Paradise. Severing the ties of kinship is among the destructive sins, one of the major sins, and one of the causes of entering the Fire. The arḥām (relatives whose ties must be maintained) are one's blood relatives. The closest of them are: Fathers, mothers, grandfathers, and grandmothers. Then brothers and sisters. Then paternal uncles and aunts, and maternal uncles and aunts, followed by their children, in that order. Maintaining ties of kinship may be done through charity, giving gifts, kind speech, visiting, and similar acts that are regarded as maintaining ties and showing kindness." 📚 Sharḥ Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī, (10/148)

📢 The Arabic word you already say without realizing its depth Many learners know this word: شُكْر (shukr) gratitude / thankfulness But in Arabic, shukr is not just saying “thank you.” It comes from the root: ش ك ر (sh-k-r) Classical Arabic uses this root for the idea of something showing the effect of what it received. That is important. Gratitude in Arabic is not only a feeling. It is something that becomes visible. You receive a blessing,then your words, actions, and attitude show that you recognized it. From the same root we get: شَكَرَ (shakara) he thanked يَشْكُرُ (yashkuru) he thanks شَاكِر (shākir) one who is thankful مَشْكُور (mashkūr) someone thanked / appreciated

So when Arabic says shukr,

it is not describing a polite phrase.

It is describing a response.

Something was given.

Something was recognized.

Something changed in the person who received it.

That is why Arabic often feels deeper than translation. English says: “Thank you.” Arabic asks: Did the blessing leave a mark on you? Miftahul Ilm The Key to Knowledge

Allah says in surah Aal 'Imran [03]: [لَن تَنَالُوا الْبِرَّ حَتَّىٰ تُنفِقُوا مِمَّا تُحِبُّونَ] "You will never achieve goodness until you spend out of what you love." [92] Sheikh Muhammad ibn Salih al-'Uthaymeen said: "Following from this, people ought to put this ayah into practice even if only just once, that if a certain part of his wealth has captured his attention, then he should give it in charity so that he could achieve this goodness." [Tafsir Surah Aal 'Imran pg. 526]

💠The Silent Intelligence of a Mother’s Body: A Miracle No Lab Could Replicate🍼 🖋️ Umm Hazzam SubhanAllah! The longer I sit with my baby, feeding him, the more it feels like Zamzam. Not because they are the same. Because both are proof that Allah provides in ways no human system could design. Zamzam never runs dry. Breast milk works the same way. As long as the baby needs it, the body keeps producing it. When the baby is thirsty, the milk thins out, becomes more hydrating. When the baby is hungry, it thickens, becomes richer. Physiologists call this foremilk and hindmilk. I call it mercy. Even before birth, the body prepares. Colostrum sits ready by the second trimester, waiting for a baby who hasn't arrived yet. It's thick, golden, low in volume, and loaded with antibodies the newborn has no way of making on its own. Within days it shifts into mature milk. The body pulls calcium, fat, protein straight from the mother's own reserves. It gives from itself so the baby can grow. Every time the baby cries, the body already knows what to do. Oxytocin floods in. The milk lets down. Allah placed the mercy inside her before she ever had to ask for it. What still stuns me is that the milk is never fixed. If the baby falls sick, the mother's body reads it and changes the milk's composition to carry more of the antibodies that baby needs. As the baby grows and feeds more, supply rises to match. No lab has ever built a formula that adjusts in real time like this. It happens by the will of Allah, not by any device. I remember sitting in a zoology lecture during my bachelor's, learning the mechanics of lactation for the first time. I was astonished then, purely as a student staring at biology. But astonishment as a student is nothing next to astonishment as a mother. Now I watch my own body do what I once only saw on a slide, and I see the creativity of my Creator up close, in my own flesh. فَتَبَارَكَ اللَّهُ أَحْسَنُ الْخَالِقِينَ "So blessed is Allah, the best of creators." (23:14) Behind every feed is a mother running on no sleep, aching, giving without being asked to. The Prophet ﷺ said Allah divided mercy into a hundred parts and kept ninety-nine with Him, sending only one part down to all of creation. That single part is enough for a mare to lift her hoof in fear of trampling her own foal. Enough for a mother to wake at every cry, every single night, without complaint. Reflect on that. He is Al-Khaliq, the Perfect Creator. His signs aren't only in the sky. They're in a mother's body, in the milk she gives, in a mercy too precise to be an accident.

Shaykh Salih al-Humayd, Imam & Teacher in Masjid Haram Makkah, and the son of the great scholar Abdullah Humayd رحمه الله recently visited Uzbekistan. During his visit, he visited the grave of Imam Bukhari رحمه الله. There are some lies being spread by the people of desires who claim the Shaykh was invoking al-Bukhari, asking for his intercession or the likes. May Allah protect us from ignorance and spreading lies. I asked the Shaykh to kindly clarify. He حفظه الله responded, "I visited him with the legislated visitation (visiting the graves in general for men), prayed for him, and asked Allah to reward him with the best reward for what he provided in service to the Hadith of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him. May Allah protect you, and may Allah reward you for your call and your inquiry. That is all I did. As for placing the hand on the window, it was not intentional; I was only looking at the grave from behind the window because it was relatively far, so I was contemplating the grave while thinking about the life of this great imam, Abu Abdullah Muhammad ibn Ismail al-Bukhari, may Allah shower him with mercy and pleasure as a reward for the great service he rendered to the Sunnah of our Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him. And thank you very much for your call and your inquiry." ✍️ Abu Awzaa’ee Abdus-Salaam al-Mudarris وفقه الله 📍 NYC 🗓 1st of Safar, 1448 (7/15/2026ce) 🗝 Keys To Knowledge | T.me/K2KNYC
