 Tauheed or oneness of Allah is the first pillar of Islam. For a Muslim or a believer it is an important belief. The sunni or hanafi class or sect firmly believes in tauheed of Allah without which we are doing shirk. on the otherhand repeating regular chants of Ya Ali Madad or Naraye Haideri the shia sect repeatedly commits shirk and their concept of tauheed is incorrect. By chanting Ya Ali madad instead of the correct chant of Ya Allah madad the shia sect is associating partners with Allah and hence committing shirk as we can only say Ya Allah madad instead of Ya Ali Madad. The shia people are giving Hazrat Ali divine powers which is shirk. We cannot associate partners with Allah as Allah is omnipotent and the sole creator and master of the universe. In the end what I would like to say is that Sunni beliefs are correct and shia beliefs are incorrect as sunnis dont commit shirk.

 We should be grateful to Allah at all times as he has given us so much and has blessed us with so many bounties. First of all we should thank Allah for making us as human beings because if Allah wanted he might have made us an insect or mosquito. Secondly we should thank Allah for making us Muslims. As Muslim we have the best chance of reaching Heaven as non believers mainly christians, jews, hindus and buddhists and atheists have been doomed to reach Hell by Allah provided that they attain faith and convert into Islam. We should be grateful to Allah for making us rich, healthy, educated and dignified. We should be grateful to Allah for providing us with food, homes, clothes and shelter. In the end what I would like to say is that when Allah can feed a large animal like the blue whale then he can surely feed us humans daily with food and drink.

 Namaz is a very important act of worship for the Muslims as Allah has said that in the Quran that Namaz protects us from sins and from bad actions and bad deeds. Namaz is the act of worship which will save us from the Hell fire as it's question will be asked not only in our grave but also on the day of judgement.  Dua after Namaz is another important act of worship as whatever we ask, our wishes, our aspirations and our gifts and our income, jobs and wealth and our health and our well being we should ask from Allah and Allah only. Those who dont say dua and ask Allah  for help are considered arrogant and proud and committing shirk as we shouldnt ask people for help instead we should ask Allah for help. Those who dont offer namaz and dua their lives become miserable and unfortunate. In the end what I would like to say is that in order to live a better life both in this world and in the hereafter we should practise namaz and dua regularly. 

 We must have faith and complete trust in Allah and Allah's plan. Whenever we face a calamity, disaster, a stress ful event, an adversity or a tricky or difficult situation and conditions we should keep faith in Allah that he will cure us and bring us out of these tough situations. When the Holy Prophet Muhammad was depressed that no Quranic revelation was revealed to him for a long time and even the traitors or munafiqin started taunting him that no Quranic revelation has come for a long time from Allah then the surah's Ad duha and Surah Alam Nashrah was revealed to our Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him). In Surah Alam Nashrah or Surah Inshirah it is revealed that after every hardship comes ease. Similarly Surah Ad Duha has similar content in it as Surah Alam Nashrah or Surah Inshirah. Therefore the cure for depression or any mental problem is to recite Surah Ad Duha and Surah Alam Nashrah regularly. In the end what I would like to say is that there is cure and solution...

 Nothing is impossible for Allah. We can have miracles in our lives just because of praying to Allah and making Dua to HIM. Allah is the lord of the worlds, its sustainer, its creator and its master so nothing is impossible for HIM. Allah can do anything for us if we sincerely pray to HIM and HIM alone without doing any shirk. Allah's timing is perfect and Allah's delays must not be questioned. Allah's delays are for a reason and there is justification and reason for whatever Allah does. In every calamity we should pray to Allah as nothing is impossible for HIM and HE will get you out from that calamity and tough situations. We should ask Allah for anything and we should make our wishes to Allah alone as those who dont pray to Allah and make Dua Allah considers them to be arrogant and proud. This arrogance and proudness may lead them to Hell. In the end what I would like to say is that everything is going according to Allah's plan and he is the best of Planners.

 We shouldnt indulge in backbiting, foul language, quarrelling, fighting with fellow Muslims over petty issues, being aggressive during fast, shouting and screaming, being rude to one another, showing bad mannerisms and etiquettes and harassing one another physically as well as verbally and finally being abusive while fasting. All the things mentioned above are sins that we should avoid while fasting during Ramazan. There is a hadis or tradition of the Holy Prophet Muhammad that a Muslim is one from whose tongue and hands other muslims are safe. That means a believer never indulges in harming other muslims whether it is physically or verbally and we shouldnt misbehave with one another while fasting. I know while fasting people become short tempered, but we should control our anger while fasting as it is a sin and it invalidates your fast if you lose your anger while fasting. In the end what I would like to say that people should show self restraint and self control while fasting an...
