I had a thought which I wanted to share. I was pondering over a specific wisdom why people face difficulties and the loss of blessings, such as health. Often when muslims receive blessings especially, beyond their need, it distracts them from the hereafter and instead focuses their minds on this material world. So in thisContinue reading “PODTHOUGHT: REFOCUS THROUGH LOSS”

PODNEWS: COMPROMISING ON FAITH
I read a news article a while back which I wanted to discuss.

In a Hadith found in Sahih Bukhari, number 6125, the Holy Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, advised muslims to make things easy for others instead of making things difficult.

PODSERIES: SAFEGUARDING SPEECH – PART 5 OF 13
The last blog was discussing the different types of speech a muslim must safeguard themself from. The next danger of the tongue is cursing.

PODTHOUGHT: MISSING THINGS
I had a thought which I wanted to share. It is important for muslims to firmly believe that they will not intensely miss anything they give up for the sake of Allah, the Exalted, whether the thing is unlawful or lawful but unnecessary.
