Supplication

سمجھتا ہے خدا کو صرف جو حاجت روا اپنا ۔

وہ غیر اللہ کے در کا کبھی سائل نہیں ہوتا ۔

“Who understands Allah alone as one’s Hajat Rawa*,
will never be a suppliant at the doors of Ghairullah.”

* Hajat Rawa = The One who fulfills needs.

Building homes in Jannah

Some simple, easy phrases and words everyone can take advantage of.  Say them on the nights of Ramadan for multiplied reward, especially if it lands on the night that is greater than a thousand months. The Messenger salla Allahu alayhi wasallam said:

1. “Whoever recites “Qul huwa Allahu ahad” [the entire Surah] ten times, Allah will build for him a house in Paradise.”

[Sahih al-Jami' as-Sagheer]

2. “Whoever says: ‘Glorified is Allah, the Most Great, and praised is He’ [Subhan Allah al-'Adhim wa bi-Hamdih] will have a date palm planted for him in Paradise.”

[Sahih al-Jami; # 5531]

3. “I met Ibrahim alayhi assalam on al-Israa’, and he said to me: ‘O Muhammad, convey my greetings to your Ummah, and tell them that Jannah is of pure land and sweet water. It’s expanse is vast and levelled, and its plants are, Subhan Allah, wal-hamdu-lillah, wa la illaha illa Allah, wa Allahu akbar.‘”

[Sahih at-Tirmithi]

4. “Shall I not point you to one of the treasures of Paradise? [It is], ‘There is no power and no might except in Allah’ [La hawla wa la quwatta illa billah].”

[Bukhari]

5. “Whoever is stricken with sadness, grief, sickness or hardship and says: ‘Allah is my Lord, without any partners’ [Allahu Rabbi, la sharika lah], then it will be removed from him.”

[Sahih al-Jami'; # 6040]

6. “Whoever ate something, then said: ‘Praise be to Allah who has fed me this food and provided it for me, without any strength or power on my part’ [al-Hamdu lillah aladhi at'amani hadha wa Razaqnih bi ghayr hawlin minni wa la quwwa] is forgiven his past and future sins. And whoever wears a garment and says: ‘Praise be to Allah who has clothed me with this garment and provided it for me without any strength or power on my part’ [al-Hamdu lillah aladhi kasani hadha at-thawb wa Razaqnih bi ghayr hawlin minni wa la quwwa] is forgiven his past and future sins.”

[Sahih al-Jami'; # 6086]

7. “Whoever enters the marketplace and says: ‘There is none worthy of worship except Allah who has no partners, for Him is the Dominion, and for Him is all Praise, He brings life and He causes death, and He is Alive and does not die, in His Hand is all good, and He is able to do all things,’ [La ilaha ill-Allah, Wahdahu la sharika lahu, lahul-Mulk, wa lahul-Hamd, yuhyiyy wa yumit, wa Huwa Hayyun la yamut, bi Yadihil-Khayr wa Huwa 'ala kulli shay'in Qadir]then Allah will write one million good deeds for him, and will wipe away one million of his bad deeds, and will raise him one million levels and will build a home for him in Paradise.”

['Sahih al-Jami'; # 6231]

8. “Whoever asks Allah for Paradise three times [Allahumma inni as'aluk al-Jannah], then Paradise will say: “O Allah! Enter him into Paradise!” And whoever seeks protection with Allah from the Fire three times [Allahumma najjini min an-Nar], the Fire will say: “O Allah! Protect him from the Fire!“”

[Reported by at-Tirmidhi, and it is authentic]

9. “Whoever seeks forgiveness for the believing men and the believing women, Allah writes for him – for every believing man and woman – a good deed.”

[Reported by at-Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah, and Ahmad, and it is authentic]

10. “Whoever asks Allah sincerely for martyrdom [Allahumma inni as'aluk ash-shahadah], Allah will cause him to reach the status of the martyrs even if he dies in his bed.”

[Bukhari; # 1909]

11. “No one witnesses that there is none worthy of worship but Allah and that I am Allah’s Messenger – truthfully, from his heart – except that Allah makes the Fire of Hell forbidden to touch him.”

[Reported by Muslim, Ahmad, and al-Bayhaqi]

List largely taken from http://iskandrani.wordpress.com, which contains a few more phrases; make sure you check out 

I attended a dars today and for some reason I decided that I shud be sharing whatever little information Im getting with my friends, family, loved ones and bla

So if youre interested continue reading otherwise feel free to go back to your fb homepage but Id suggest you keep reading itni mehnat se likha hai yaar...

Well, basically Ill start from here…. the dars the speaker shaikh kamaluddin ahmed started by telling us about the people who are able but not successful.....

Anyway, Allah Taala made the devil and he used to worship him so much that Iblis was the only Jinn who was in the comapny of the angels and when Allah asked them to perform the sajda to Hazrat Adam iblis refused despite hearing Allah's Voice ordering to perform the sajda thus he led himself to devastation.

Going ahead in history we have the example of the Pharoah firaun
who was the most powerful leader in his time so much so that when he decided to kill all the infants in his country our of fear of one of them becoming th ereason of his downfall nobody dared protest or even say anything against him (true we have bad leaders too but we all tend to protest, Mubarak, Gaddafi) yet his power and his money couldn’t save him when the waves of the red sea engulfed him and his iman was not accepted because he refused...

Coming forward we have Abu lahab and Abhu Jahal the uncles of our lovely prophet peace be upon him they were intelligent and abu jahal was known for his wisdom and was actually known as abu fiqar but due to his ignorance despite hearing the Prophet preach and be lucky to be in his presence but yet he refused to accept and led himself to devastation.

Coming forward we have Mughal king Akber. He was strong, brave 13 years old when he ascended the throne he had 2 very intelligent brothers amongst his staff who were so intelligent and brilliant that theyd written the tafseer of the Quran without using any words which had dots in them (like sawab in urdu) and the younger brother would hear sumthing once hed remember it and the older brother would remember it if hed hear it twice so many a times whenever poets wud come and say poems in praise of Akber the younger brother would say that I had written this for you and he'd repeat the poem for Akber to believe and the older brother would confirm it too cus he'd hear it 2 times once from the poet himself and once from his brother so yeah they were very smart!!

Anyway, when Akber decided that people should prostrate in front of him he wanted someone to endorse it for him an imam a religious scholar but obviously none would cus no matter how less iman people may have we all know that you only do sajda in fron of Allah Alone...

But these brothers endorsed it and led themselves to devastation.

All of the people mentioned above were very Qabil (able) but they were not maqbool (successful) because they didnot obey, they listened but they forgot.

When we die we our degrees our MBAs our Cas wont come in handy what really will come in handy will be how we live our lives whether we are spending it according to how Allah has asked or ordered us to spend, that obviously doesn't mean that you dont study do study but also ponderrrr.

We should all always pray that Allah guides us.

This kinda pulled a few heart strings when the speaker said that all the women should try to be like Hazrat Maryum AS who was so pure and innocent that her new born child spoke to tell the world of his mothers chastity and all the boys should try to be like Hazrat Yousaf As who resisted temptation in the form of Zulekha , and such people are rewarded.

Thanx for listening

ok bye.
