•• الماء يطهر كل شيء إلا القلب ، لا يطهره إلا القرآن..

Water purifies everything except the heart, only the Quran can purify it.

قال الإمام عبد الغني المقدسي - رحمه الله - : "أَبلغ مَا سأل العَبد ربّه ثلاثة أشياء : رِضوان الله عزّ وجل، والنّظر إلى وجههِ الكريم،  والفِردوس الأعلَى". ذيل طبقات الحنابلة  ٢٠.

Imam Abd al-Ghani al-Maqdisi - may Allah have mercy on him - said: "The most noble thing a servant can ask of his Lord is three things: The pleasure of Allah the Most High, the sight of His noble face, and the highest paradise." From the appendix of the Classes of Hanbalis, p. 20

"يَا رَبّ فِي القَلبِ همٌّ ليسَ يَرفَعُهُ إلَّاكَ يَا كاشِفَ الأحزَانِ والكُـرَبِ."

"O'Lord, there is a burden in my heart that can only be lifted by You, O Dispenser of sorrows and hardships."

♡ الأناقة ليست فقط في مظهرك الخارجي. هناك أيضًا أناقة داخلية، وهي أناقة لسانك، عقلك، قلبك، وطريقة كلامك وتصرفاتك.

Elegance is not only from your external appearance. There is also internal elegance, it is the elegance of your tongue, your brain, your heart and the way you talk and act.

♡ كل شئ في هذه الدنيا إما أن تتركه أو يتركك ! إلا الله… إن أقبلت اليه أغناك ؛ وإن تركته ناداك.

Everything in this world, you either leave it or it leaves you!  Except for Allah... If you turn to Him, He enriches you; and if you abandon Him, He calls out to you.

و لا زالت تكفينا الكلمات الرقيقة و التفاصيل الصغيرة لنكبر دوماً في ظلها .

And still, the tender words and small details are enough for us to always grow and thrive under their influence.

ARAFAH - 9th Dhul Hijjah ‏لئن كانت ليلة القدر مجهولة فإن يوم عرفة معروف ولئن كانت ليلة القدر تتنزل فيها الملائكة فإن الله جل جلاله ينزل في ‎يوم عرفة ‎ If the Night of Decree is unknown, Then the day of Arafah is known And if the angels descend on the Night of Decree, Then Allah The Almighty descends on the day of Arafat. •─────✧─────• It was reported from Abu Qutaadah that the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ was asked about fasting on the Day of ‘Arafaah. He said, “It expiates for the sins of the previous year and of the coming year.” Narrated by Muslim. So let's not miss to fast this important day In Shaa Allah, to have our small sins of the previous year and the coming year forgiven. With regards to the great sins, they need sincere repentance/tawbah #Dhul_Hijjah 🕋

You will not find anyone devoted to singing and musical instruments except that they possess a degree of deviation from the path of guidance in both knowledge and action. Such a person feels a distaste for listening to the Qur’an in favor of listening to singing; if offered the choice between the two, he turns from the former to the latter. Listening to the Qur’an becomes heavy upon him; he might even ask the reciter to be silent or find the recitation too long, while asking the singer for more and finding the performance too short. The least that can be said is that such a person incurs a generous share of this blame, even if it does not encompass him entirely. This discourse is directed at those who still have some life remaining in their hearts to feel it. As for the one whose heart has died and whose obsession has become great, he has blocked the path of advice for himself: "And whoever Allah intends to tempt—you will possess nothing for him against Allah. Those are the ones whose hearts Allah does not intend to purify." [Al-Ma'idah 5:41] - إغاثة اللهفان من مصايد الشيطان

"فَالنُّفُوسُ الشَّرِيفَةُ لَا تَرْضَىٰ مِنَ الْأَشْيَاءِ إِلَّا بِأَعْلَاهَا وَأَفْضَلِهَا" "For noble souls are not satisfied with anything less than the highest and the best."

‎Whoever consistently maintains the recitation of Sūrah al-Baqarah over long/unbroken periods will witness remarkable changes in their life; physical healing, increase in their provision, expansion in their chest and blessing in their time. ‎The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: ‎اقرَؤوا سورةَ البَقرةِ؛ فإنَّ أخذَها بَركةٌ، وتَركَها حَسرةٌ، ولا تَستطيعُها البَطَلةُ ‎"...Recite Sūrah al-Baqarah, for taking hold of it is a blessing, neglecting it is a regret, and those engaged in sorcery [and deceptive practices] cannot withstand it." ‎• أخرجه مسلم (804)، وأحمد (22193)

“If you are not one of the righteous, do not leave their gatherings, perhaps you may be guided.”

وإن العبد لياتي يوم القيامة بحسنات أمثال الجبال، فيجد لسانه قد هدمها عليه كلها؛ ويأتي بسيئات أمثال الجبال، فيجد لسانه قد هدمها من كثرة ذكر الله وما اتصل به. “A servant may come on the Day of Resurrection with good deeds as عظیم as mountains, but finds that his tongue has destroyed them all. And he may come with sins as great as mountains, yet finds that his tongue has demolished them—due to abundant remembrance of Allah and what is connected to it.” —الداء والدواء

Recognise Your Sins, Acknowledge Your Flaws, and Embrace Humility "I have never seen anything that ruins good deeds more, corrupts hearts faster, leads a person to destruction more swiftly, prolongs sorrow, brings one closer to blame, fosters arrogance, hypocrisy, and a thirst for leadership more than not knowing the level your own of faults while focusing on the faults of others." Ibn 'Asäkir, Tarikh Madinat Dimashq, vol. 20, p. 190.

من اليقين أن لا تُرضي الناس بسخط الله، ولا تحمد أحدًا على رزق الله، ولا تلوم أحدًا على ما لم يُؤتك الله؛ It is a sign of true certainty that you do not please people at the cost of angering Allah, that you do not praise anyone for what Allah has provided, and that you do not blame anyone for what Allah has not given you. فإنَّ رزق الله لا يسوقه حرص حريص ولا يرده كراهة كاره. For indeed, the provision of Allah is not driven by the eagerness of the eager, nor is it held back by the dislike of the disliker. وإن الله بقسطه وحلمه وعدله جعل الروح والفرح في اليقين والرضا وجعل الهم والحزن في الشك والسخط. And Allah, in His fairness, forbearance, and justice, has placed peace and joy in certainty and contentment, and has placed worry and sorrow in doubt and discontent.

What to do when: You are jobless/laid-off? You are single/divorced/widowed? You are homeless or cannot afford the rent? Say what Moosaa عليه السلام had said: رَبِّ إِنِّي لِمَا أَنزَلْتَ إِلَيَّ مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَقِيرٌ {My Lord! Truly, I am in need of whatever good that You bestow on me} [Surah al-Qasas (28): 24] For Allaah جل وعلا then provided him with a job (shepherd), a wife, and a place to stay. الحمد لله الذي بنعمته تتم الصالحات Praise is for Allaah (Alone) by Whose grace good deeds are completed

"احرص على ما ينفعك، واستعن بالله ولا تعجز". "Be diligent in what benefits you, seek help from Allah, and do not give up."
