Pimping...

Ok, ok, whatever you thought, think again.... pop your eyeballs back in to their sockets, and pay attention inshaAllah....
+++++++++++++++++++
Ibn Umar (رضى الله عنه) narrated:

"Three are forbidden from entering Jannah: the alcoholic, the undutiful and disobedient person, and the cuckold or pimp who is satisfied and delighted with the evil in his family."
(Narrated by Ahmad 2/69: it is Sahih al-Jaami')

Among the forms of pimping in our time is

1) Overlooking and disregarding the unacceptable actions of a girl or a woman of a house, such as when she calls a man, who is a stranger to her and converses with him in a manner commonly known as flirting.

2) To accept and allow one of the women of his household to be alone with a strange man, or permit her to ride alone with a driver and the like.

3) To agree to women leaving the house without proper legitimate Hijaab so they become a spectacle for all to see

4) And to bring films and magazines that spread corruption and immorality into the house.

Just how common is this today?!?!?!!!

May Allah forgive us and guide us all

Ameen.

Cursing

Many people can not control their tongues, when they get angry and hasten to curse. This results in them cursing human beings, animals, things, days, hours, and they may even curse themselves and their children, the husband may curse the wife and vice versa!


This is an evil and serious matter, for Abu Zayd Ibn ad-Dahhak al-Ansaaree (may Allah be please with him) narrated,


"...And whoever curses a Muslim it is as if he has murdered him."

(Bukhari)


Because cursing is mostly done by women, the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) has shown that it is one of the causes that leads them to Hellfire. In addition, people who curse otherswill not have the right of intercession on the Day of Ressurrection. Worse still, if a person curses unjustly, the curse will rebound to him so he would then have made a supplication against himself to be expelled and removed from Allah's mercy.

Just a reminder...


The Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said: "Where a person dies all his action come to an end except 3:

Sadaqa Jaria,
Knowlege that benefits,
or a righteous child that makes dua'a for him".
(Bukhari)

Let us help them while they are still living, not just when they leave us....

Drowning In My Memories ..

The Star Is Listening To My Holler ..

Would I Ever Be Able To See One Of Them Before Death ..

Come To Me ,, Don't Leave Me .. My Children ..

Ever Since You Abandon Me My Life Became A Joyless ..

Sleeping Up All Night Long ,

With My Solitude ..Hiding Some Of My Suffering And Showing Some Of It ..

My Tears Run Down On My Cheek Every Time I Rest My Head ..

Between The Walls Of Limitation And The Unlimited Sorrow ..

I've Been Forgotten By All Of My Children ,

So Is Have My Love And Affection In Spite Of My Strength ,

I Can Bear It No Longer ..Where Is Laila ??Where Is Salwa ??

When She Was Buying Sweets And Candy In Her Youth ..

Did You Forget Daddy's Love ,

You Were Laughing So Loud And Delighted ..Where Is Ahmed ?? Where Is Sami ??

Come Back , Life Is So Short ..Oh , Happy Nights Do Come Back ,

Unlock My Chains ..I Can Find No Reason For My Existence Any More ..

Save Me ,, Wipe My Tears Away ..Would I Be Able To Met One Of Them Again ..

My Tears Is My Witness , I've Been Drowning In My Own Sorrows ..

So Please Have Mercy , And Be Tolerant For The Sake Of My Age And Weakness ..

If You Forgot The Past , I Didn't Ever Forget It ..

I Wonder Around Alone ,Wishing And Hoping ..

The Long Restless Nights Broke My Body Down ..

And The Grief Is Burning My Heart ..

Every Time I Feel That My Steamy Wounds Are Awaking Again I Shout

Oh Lord Bless Me With Your Forgiveness ,

And Let The Quran Be My Supply ..Be With My Children ,

And Show Them The True Path ..

(Ahmed Bukhatir)

25 suggestions to add to your life

1. Start off each day with 'azkar al-istiyqaz' (waking up supplications), thanking Allah for waking up in good shape.

2. Put Allah (swt) and then Prophet Mohammad (saw) before anything else in your life.

3. Broaden your horizons-learn 5 New verses from the Quran, travel to pray the Fajr in the mosque to brighten your day, take up a booklet having azkar-alsaba 7 (morning supplications) and read them.

4. Pray Salat Al-duha (after sunrise) and also the remaining 4 obligatory salaat of the day.

5. If someone says something mean to you, just shrug it off and dismiss it in a friendly, laidback manner, and pray that Allah shall forgive him or her. They will probably get the message that they're not triggering your anger and they will stop.

6. When you get angry, remember Allah, and how short and worthless life is to waste in being Angry.

7. Remember that you can never have too many friends, but you can have few quality friends that help you fulfil the purpose of your creation (i.e live for Allah.)

8. When you're happy, try to share your happiness with others thank Allah for that, and pray its continuation.

9. When something bad or embarrassing happens to you, just think that it could always be worse, remember the reward of patience, and thank Allah that it's not worse than it is.

10. Do something extra of goodness once in a while, like feeding a poor person, or caressing an orphan's head.

11. Never stop believing that you can win Allah's love and thus work for it. Then you can win the love of Allah's slaves.

12. Spend some time thinking of Allah's amazing creation.

13. Always love those who love Allah unconditionally. This way you will ensure that you live for Him, love for Him, and hate for Him (those who are enemies of Him)

14. Find the righteous ways to express yourself, and if you think that what you are about to say shall cause no benefit, maintain silence (this is tough!)

15. Every now and then, give yourself a break. play sports, give time to your family, friends, but always remember Allah and watch that He is watching you (Ihsan).

16. Pray for blessings to come to your enemies, and pray Allah to guide them to the right path.

17. Show love to your parents and always obey them (except orders that are against Islam, which they'll never do) especially to your mother as Junnah is under the feet of your mother.

18. Smile to everyone, for your smile makes a big difference to them and you are rewarded.

19. Forgive, forget and smile.

20. Tears are not for women only... tears are for all human beings with feelings remaining in them. Don't restrain your tears when remembering Allah.

21. When people criticize your actions and effort, revise your actions and see if they please Allah or not. If they do, then ignore those criticism and remember how the Prophet(s) and the Sahaba (ra) were criticized, made fun of and even physically harmed, so have patience.

22. Read the Quran daily and try to have a schedule for completing it every month (or as much as you could) as long as you open the Quran daily, and read with observing, try to understand and traansform them into action, not just passing your eyes through the words.

23. Don't let popularity go to your head, for it never lasts and you may lose from it more than gain.

24. Never look down on anybody, for they may be better than you in Allah's eyes.

25. After praying the salaatul Isha and before going to bed ask yourself whether you have gained some points for the day or are you loosing. Make repentance for things you have done wrong and think of ways to improve yourself in the following day.

7 steps to protecting your Eeman

1. LEARN the deen systematically...
don't try to know everything, start with the basics, learn, implement, reflect, ponder.
2. Keep GOOD COMPANY:
We must be careful of the company we keep, for we are a true reflection of our friends. Keep company with those that will strengthen your Eeman and support you, not drag you to haraam.
3. PRAY
Get your Salaah in order, 5 daily prayers as a bare minimum. When you start to neglect your Sunnahs your Fardhs become high risk, so try to implement more rather than less.Pray Slatul Taubah and Salatul Tasbih where possible, repent at every avail.
4. DHIKR
Make Istighfar, tasbih, tahlil; for they will soften the heart.
"Verily in the Rememberance of Allah do hearts find rest". (Quran 13:28)
5. QURAN
The Quran is not just to be opened in Ramadhan and then "stored" for the other 11 months of the year. Read atleast 1 Juz/Chapter a day; reflect and learn the rulings and commands of Allah. Shaytaan will try and distract you. If you feel sleepy, make wudu/wash your face; avoid distractions; and do not get up until you have finished for shaytaan will try and entice you by every means possible from reading the Book of Allah.
6. FAST
Fast a minimum of 3 days a month (13-15th of the lunar month). Fasting deminishes desire, so control your desires and strengthen your Eeman by fasting atleast these 3 days and every Monday and Thursday.
7. Lower your GAZE
If you look right and left, you will see haram in all variations. Everyone should lower their gaze (even those that are married) for it is haram for them to cast gaze on that which is unlawful for them (due to their desires). It is not necessary to make eye contact with the opposite sex when speaking to them, so don't go there! Remain modest, lower your gaze and protect your chastity!
