Lets put a halt to our own double-standards

Often times we act as though we are the judge passing judgements and snickering at others mistakes and faults, but then we become very good lawyers on our own behalf, defending our own faults and shortcomings. Maybe it's time we put a halt to our own double-standards, in'sha'Allah! [not a hadith]

keep your brothers and sisters in your duaa.

So many of our brothers and sisters around the world are sick and suffering. So, indeed, keep your brothers and sisters in your duaa. Whether it's a poor boy from Somalia who is without food, or a young girl in Pakistan who is abandoned, or the old man in China who is abused, or the sister in Syria who is oppressed, or the brother in Egypt imprisoned, or the orphan in Afghanistan without any support, or the young man in Iraq suffering from a psychiatric disease, or the uncle in Malaysia who is sick, or the aunty from Burma without a family. There are so many of our fellow Muslims in tough times. So let's try to make dua for those whom we know and those whom we don't know [not a hadith]

Always Be Thankful to ALLAH

When Allah has chosen you to be guided, this wasn’t because you were special. This is plain mercy from Allah which can be taken away any moment from you. Therefore, don’t think too high of your good deeds and never look down at those who were less fortunate and not guided. Remember that you were once one of them so praise Allah who guided you and ask Him to keep you steadfast. - Assim AlHakeem [not a hadith]

Another common mistake some Muslims make While offering Salah/Namaz

Another common mistake some Muslims make while they're engaged in prayer is that they don't properly cover their awrah. For example, some men wear small sized shirts and while it may cover them while they're standing, their lower back becomes exposed when they go down into sajda/prostration, potentially exposing their awrah and potentially invalidating their prayer. So let's make an effort to properly cover ourselves when we engage in the salaah/namaz, in'sha'Allah! [not a hadith]

Things once should avoid while offering Salah/Namaz/Prayers

Continuing our theme, another common mistake some people make when they pray salah/namaz is that when they are in sajda/prostration, they lift their toes up off the ground. However, we are required to keep our toes touching the ground as we have been ordered to prostrate upon seven limbs and the toes are counted as 2 of them! Furthermore, it's recommend to try to point your toes towards the qiblah while in sajda too! [not a hadith]

Good Deeds

Good deeds without sincerity is like a traveller who carries a water container full of dirt. Carrying it is a burden and brings them no benefit. - Ibn al-Qayyim [not a hadith]

Work For the Hereafter

Work for the Hereafter, and Allah will be enough for you in your worldly concerns.

Daughter to perform Hajj for Mother's vowed

It has been narrated that a woman came to the Prophet (SAW) and said, "My mother vowed to perform the Hajj but she died before performing it. Should I perform the Hajj on her behalf?" He was reported to have said, "Yes! Perform the Hajj on her behalf. See, if your mother had been in debt, would you have paid her debt?" She said, "Yes." He was reported to have said, "So you should pay what is for Him as Allah has more right that one should fulfill one's obligations to Him." [for the actual hadith, see Bukhari]

Allahu Akbar!
