Al-Qadr : 3

لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ خَيْرٌ مِّنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ

The Night of Decree is better than a thousand months.

Prayer is the soul of religion. Where there is no prayer, there can be no purification of the soul. The non-praying man is rightly considered to be a soulless man. Take prayer out of the world, and it is all over with religion because it is with prayer that man has the consciousness of God and selfless love for humanity and inner sense of piety. Prayer is, therefore, the first, the highest, and the most solemn phenomenon and manifestation of religion.

The way in which prayer is offered and the words which are recited in it explain the true nature of religion of which it is the expression of man's contact with the Lord.

Prayer in Islam gives in a nutshell the teachings of Islam. The very first thing which comes into prominence in Islamic prayer is that it is accompanied by bodily movements. It implies that Islam lifts not only the soul to the spiritual height, but also illuminates the body of man with the light of God-consciousness. It aims at purifying both body and soul, for it finds no cleavage between them. Islam does not regard body and soul as two different entities opposed to each other, or body as the prison of the soul from which It yearns to secure freedom in order to soar to heavenly heights." The soul is an organ of the body which exploits it for physiological purposes, or body is an instrument of the soul"

[All] praise is [due] to Allah, Creator of the heavens and the earth, [who] made the angels messengers having wings, two or three or four. He increases in creation what He wills. Indeed, Allah is over all things competent.

Aal-i-Imraan : 2

اللَّهُ لَآ إِلٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ الْحَىُّ الْقَيُّومُ

Allah - there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of existence.

A man once said; He left a particular community because people are dying there.

This is very fallacious,
As a Muslim we must know that the almighty Allah (subhanahu wataala) is everywhere and He created death and promised us that "every soul shall taste death"

And in another verse of the Qur'an he says " The death you are running away from it will seize you"

Don't fear death rather fear the one who has created death.

Running away from one place to another because of death is very unfortunate for a good and sincere Muslim.

The only thing you and I can do to help ourselves is to continuously praying for a good end.
Allahumma inni as'aluka husnul khatima
(Oh Allah I ask you to grant me a good ending)

We all shall return back to our creator , may we all return to Allah in a state that he is pleased with.
Ameen

💠 To Avoid the Punishment of Allāh (ﷻ), Obeys Allah's command and Prophet Muhammad ‪(ﷺ)‬. Engage in constant repentance(istighfar/tawbah), Don’t Forget to Read Morning and Evening Adhkar and Recite Suratul Mulk everytime before you Sleep.

🍯 Abu Hurayra (RA) said, Prophet Muhammad ‪(ﷺ) ‬used to make dua, "Oh Allah, I seek your protection against punishment of GRAVE and fire, from trials of life and death and from trials of Masih Dajjal."

✒️ “Allaahumma 'innee 'a'oothu bika min 'athaabil-qabri, wa min 'athaabi jahannama,
wa min fitnatil-mahyaa walmamaati, wa min sharri fitnatil-maseehid-dajjaal.”

📚 [ Sahih Bukhari 2/102, Muslim 1/412]

✨ Recite Suratul Mulk every night, and Allah (ﷻ) will protect you from the torment of grave.

📚 {Hadith Tirmidzi 2891.}

🌼 MAY ALLAH (ﷻ) SAVE US FROM THE TORMENT OF GRAVE! AMEEN.

From one gate of one hellfire to another is a journey of 500 years.

The first gate is ‘Jahannam’. Because it will pull the faces of men and women and make it gloomy. It will eat up their flesh or skins. And this is said to be the most enduring of the punishments.

Gate 2 is ‘lażā nazzā’atan lish-shawā’ (لظى نزاعة للشوى). It will eat up the hands and the legs. It will call upon those who turned away from Tawhid and the message the prophet has brought.

Gate 3 is ‘saqar’. It called saqar because it eats the flesh and spares the bones.

Gate 4 is ‘al-huțama’ (الحطمة). It is called that because it breaks the bones 🦴 into pieces and burns the torso. It burns the face and makes it to cry tears, then blood, then pus, such that if a ship were to float on what comes out of the eyes of tears, blood and pus, it will sink.

Gate 5 is ‘Jahīm’ (جحيم). It’s called so because it’s ember or coal is indescribably big. Each is said to be bigger than this dunya.

Gate 6 is ‘Sa’eer’ (سعير). It’s call that because since its creation, the hotness has never reduced even by a single degree. It contains 300 castles. Each castle has 300 apartments and each apartment has 300 varieties of punishment. It has reptiles and chains. It has a pit in it that no punishment is as chastising as such there. If that pit is opened, the inmates will be sad immeasurably and they will grieve.

Gate 7 is ‘hāwiya’ (هاوية). Whoever is thrown there never comes out again. He remains there till eternity. It has a well in it that if its cover is opened and fire blazes from it, the parent fire will be asking Allah to protect it from the hotness of the fire that blazes in there. There is a mountain in this fire on which the enemies of Allah are kept with their faces on the mountain, their hands tied to their necks, and their necks to their legs like we do to smoked fishes.

Allaahu laa 'ilaaha 'illaa Huwal-Hayyul-Qayyoom, laa ta'khuthuhu sinatun wa laa nawm, lahu maa fis-samaawaati wa maa fil-'ardh, man thal-lathee yashfa'u 'indahu 'illaa bi'ithnihi, ya'lamu maa bayna 'aydeehim wa maa khalfahum, wa laa yuheetoona bishay'im-min 'ilmihi 'illaa bimaa shaa'a, wasi'a kursiyyuhus-samaawaati wal'ardha, wa laa ya'ooduhu hifdhuhumaa, wa Huwal- 'Aliyyul- 'Adheem.

Allah! There is no God but He, the Ever Living, the One Who sustains and protects all that exists. Neither slumber nor sleep overtakes Him. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is he that can intercede with Him except with His Permission? He knows what happens to them in this world, and what will happen to them in the Hereafter. And they will never encompass anything of His Knowledge except that which He wills. His Throne extends over the heavens and the earth, and He feels no fatigue in guarding and preserving them. And He is the Most High, the Most Great.(Whoever reads this when he lies down to sleep will have a guardian from Allah remain with him and Satan will not be able to come near him until he rises in the morning.)

Being a man's first wife is something beautiful
Being a man's 2nd, 3rd or 4th wife is also very beautiful & eminent

What is shameful, blameworthy and stupid is to become a man's side chick, concubine or mistress

Being a first wife is just as good as being a 2nd, 3rd or 4th. What matters most in marriage are happiness and serenity, not position. Some first wives are not enjoying their marriage as much as some 2nd, 3rd or 4th wives

A woman (be it a spinster, a widow, a divorcee, or single mother) has an absolute right to marry whoever she wish (be it a widower, a bachelor, polygamist, rich or poor man). But what is not right is for a woman to think that being a 2nd or 3rd or 4th wife is way below them, or see such position as crappy. By Allah, It's better to be happy as a fourth wife than to be in a regretful marriage as a first wife. Always pray for the best my dear sisters, go for your choice without rubbishing the choice of others

If Allah bless me with daughters, I will not mind marrying all of them out as second, third or fourth wife to good men. I will rather marry my daughters out a million times to pious old polygamists than to give them to young irresponsible bachelors. But in a situation where my daughters' suitors are pious young men & old men, then I will prefer the young men over the old. No shaking!

Finally, as a man, know that you are not doing a woman a favor by marrying her, rather she is doing you a favor by accepting to marry you despite the intricacies involved in marriage. Women carrying our babies in their bellies for months, going through pains of labor, breastfeeding, nurturing our kids, remaining chaste and maintaining our homes are doing us big favors that can never be repaid by us except Allah.
