about belittling others

 belittling others and taunting people is not considered good in Islam Belittling others whether it is  their looks, appearance, height, income, physical strength, money and  financial status or for that matter their unemployment or kind of job.they are doing is disliked in Islam as  Allah has said those who belittle others Allah belittles them and makes their situation exactly the same. 

In Surah Hujurat it is written do not mock or deride others who knows the person derided is better than you. Better in the sense that he is more pious and Allah fearing than you. Mocking people also comes under  belittling people. 

Also under sheer jealousy or envy people belittle others. They should be in fact happy with what Allah has given them instead of comparing each other.

In the end what I would like to say is that belittling others is amongst the evils of society and must be avoided at all costs.

about keeping fast without eating sehri

 The Concern: Today I woke up after the time for suhoor (sehri) and wondering if I still have the obligation to keep my fast for Ramadan? How does not waking up affect my Niyyah for fasting? The instruction from the Qur’an is quite clear regarding fasting. In Surah Baqarah it says, يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ ٱلصِّيَامُ كَمَا كُتِبَ عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَّقُونَ “O you who have believed, decreed upon you is fasting as it was decreed upon those before you that you may become righteous –” See: All Verses From Qur’an About Ramadan There is no mention in hadith or Qur’an which says, if one does not wake up for sehri they are exempt from fasting that day. If a Muslim does not eat suhoor, this is not a valid reason for being excused from fasting. There are only a few cases where one is excused from fasting and we discuss them here. Yes I know… I think we can all agree that missing the window for sehri will be a more challenging test. But it...

About Jealousy and back biting in Islam

 One shouldnt be jealous of one another as we should see people below us in abilities, wealth, intelligence, looks and socio economic status. Allah has blessed everyone with his blessings and for some he has given more and for some a little less in wealth. We shouldnt compare each other and be jealous of someone who has more than us. If Allah made every one rich then there wouldnt be any people working as janitors, sweepers, drivers, peons and servants etc and in this way the system of Allah wont work in this world. About back biting Islam said that backbiting is the same as eating your dead brothers flesh which you will surely abhor. Back biting is a social evil as all those things said behind someone's back if he/she would mind it said in front of him then we shouldnt say it behind his/ her back which is a major sin in Islam.  In the end what I would like to say is that Surah Falaq should be recited in order to get protection from the evil eyes of jealousy.

The benefits of being grateful to Allah

Image
  Gratitude is not only the heart and essence of Islam; it is also the key to attracting abundance, prosperity, peace, and success in one’s life. We can say that Gratitude and Shukr are the most important aspects of Islam. We as a Muslims should always thankful to Almighty Allah for all the blessings that given by Him. He is the Creator of this world alone and also He is The Most Merciful for all His humankind. If we thankful to him then it means we are believers and if not then disbelievers. In Holy Quran, Allah Almighty says:   “And remember! Your Lord caused to be declared: If ye are grateful, I will add more unto you”   (Quran, 14:5-7). From the verses of Holy Quran, we came to know that gratitude is essential to Islamic character and that practicing gratitude in Islam is the means to greater prosperity. We have to be grateful for everything that we have in which health, wealth, breath, family, friends and for all other things whether it’s too small or big and most im...
