Love of Allah

 Those who love Allah Allah loves them and especially those who worship Allah by saying 5 times prayer, reading the Quran, fasting, performing haj or umrah atleast once in their life time and giving charity or sadaqah. 

Those who love money and prefer it over Allah are surely going to hell as Allah has said that poor people will enter jannat first and rich people will enter jannat last. There is great issues picking on everything that a rich person earns by Allah so it is better to be poor than rich. Besides poor people are under more trial and tribulations in this world rather than the rich and elite. The love for money and materialistic things like having big cars, big houses and lavish food and clothes is another kind of shirk in the eyes of Allah.

In the end what I would like to say is that we shouldnt forget Allah by getting too much involved in worldly affairs but we should love Allah and worship him alone.

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...

Importance of Niyat (Intention in Islam)

  Since intention ( niyyah ) is the criterion of value in every act including worship, it is the first obligatory act in prayer. Considering its importance, a separate and lengthy chapter has been included for the examination of its dimensions, with the hope that by doing so, we would succeed in giving more value to all devotional acts. Intention (niyyah) as the criterion of value The element that gives importance to a person’s action is his intention, motive or objective. So, in the verses of the Qur’an, the phrase “in the way of Allah” ( f i  sab i lill a h ) is often used (seventy times), and thus a warning for people to ensure that their actions and intentions be in the way of God, and not for the sake of other than God or their own carnal desires. Like a dangerous read in which many signboards have been set up, servitude of God is also like a way which has many precipices; and all of these emphasizes is a warning for avoiding deviations. This is particularly true with res...

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.
