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.

PODSERIES: SAFEGUARDING SPEECH – PART 4 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 foul language. This habit is undoubtedly a sin.

PODTHOUGHT: BE THE BEST
I had a thought which I wanted to share. I was pondering over the Companions of the Holy Prophet Muhammad, may Allah be pleased with them, and what made them the best group ever created after the Holy Prophets, peace be upon them. The fact they physically observed the Holy Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessingsContinue reading “PODTHOUGHT: BE THE BEST”
PODNEWS: FAITH BRINGS PEACE
