Summarized from Bida’i` al-Fawa’id (304-30) :

1. Seeking refuge with Allah from Shaytan. Allah the Most High said, “And if there comes to you from Satan an evil suggestion, then seek refuge in Allah. Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Knowing.” [41:36]

2. Recitation of the two soorahs al-Falaq and an-Nas, as they have wondrous effect in seeking refuge with Allah from his evil, weakening Shaytan and protection from him.

The word ISLAM has a two-fold meaning: peace, and submission to God. This submission requires a fully conscious and willing effort to submit to the one Almighty God. One must consciously and conscientiously give oneself to the service of Allah. This means to act on what Allah enjoins all of us to do (in the Qur'an) and what His beloved Prophet, Muhammad (Peace be upon him) encouraged us to do in his Sunnah (his lifestyle and sayings personifying the Qur'an). Once we humble ourselves, rid ourselv

Tawheed is the foundation upon which this upright religion has been built, so focusing on it means to focus on the very core itself. For if we were to reflect over the Noble Qur'an we would find that it expounds on issues of tawheed repetitively, so much so that there does not exist a single soorah in the Qur'an that does not mention tawheed, clarifying it and prohibiting what opposes it. It was Al-Imam Ibn Al-Qayyim who pointed out that the entire Qur'an is about tawheed, since it is only made

Praise to be Allah (God), the Lord of the worlds, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful! Insha'Allah (by the will of Allah (SWT)), in this article I'll expose the hypocrisy of Islamic haters and debunks their false allegations against the noble character of al-habib (the beloved, may Allah’s (SWT) mercy and blessings be upon him - Prophet Muhammad). Mocking, insulting, rejecting and accusing the Prophets (Peace be upon on them) is not new. It is an old habit of disbelievers. Allah (SWT) i

Praise to be Allah (God) the Lord of the worlds, Who rose above the heavens in a manner that suits His Majesty. After observing many conversations on Islamic forums and reading fair amount of anti Islamic articles, I noticed that many people are confused about the importance of scholarly opinions in Islam. For example the question: when do Muslims accept the opinions of our scholars? In this article, by the will of Allah (SWT), I'll try my best to clear up most of the confusions with the little

First let's see what did the Quran and the Prophet say about Akhlaaq (manners):

The Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him), in Muwatta Imam Malik said: "Verily, I was sent for no other reason,except to perfect the noble traits of character'' - in other words; one of the Prophet's goals, in fact, the primary mission was the perfection of how people behave - their manners.

A Muslim can't be a true Muslim if he does his Ibadaat (worshiping, i.e prayers, fasts, zakat..etc)very

If the son of Adam died, his soul departs his body and he placed in his grave. Then two angels (Munkar & Nakir) came to him and ask him what he used to believe in when he was alive in this world (dunya). They ask him: 1) who was his Lord, 2) what was his religion, 3) who was his Prophet. If he gives a good answer, that is good, but if he does not answer them they inflict a severe and painful beating on him.

It was narrated that al-Bara’ (may Allaah be pleased with

What is meant by al-barzakh is the period between a person's death and his resurrection on the Day of Resurrection. Its the separator stage between two other stages (the life and the resurrection day).

Whoever dies as a Muslim, obeying Allaah, will be in a blessed state, and whoever dies as a kaafir, disobeying Allaah, will be punished. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning); “The Fire, they are exposed to i

Muslims believe that the present life is a trial in preparation for the next realm of existence. When a Muslim dies, he or she is washed and wrapped in a clean, white cloth (usually by a family member) and buried after a special prayer, preferably the same day. Muslims consider this a final service that they can do for their relatives and an opportunity to remember that their own existence here on earth is brief.

The question of whether there is life after death does not fall under the
