Allah descending during the last third of the night

The Prophet (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “The Lord descends every night to the lowest heaven when one-third of the night remains and says: ‘Who will call upon Me, that I may answer Him? Who will ask of Me, that I may give him? Who will seek My forgiveness, that I may forgive him?’”

[Sahih Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

Those Who Love One Another for Allah’s Sake

The Messenger (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said, “Allah has said, ‘For those who love each other for the sake of My glory, they will be given thrones of light; and the prophets and martyrs will be envious of them.’”

If My servant likes to meet me

The Messenger (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said, “Allah the Most Great said, ‘If My servant likes to meet me, then I like to meet him; and if he dislikes to meet Me, then I dislike to meet him.’”

[Sahih Al-Bukhari]

‎''Bukhari :: Book 1 :: Volume 5 :: Hadith 248''
Narrated 'Aisha:

''Whenever the Prophet took a bath after Janaba he started by washing his hands and then performed ablution like that for the prayer. After that he would put his fingers in water and move the roots of his hair with them, and then pour three handfuls of water over his head and then pour water all over his body''.

Narrated 'Abdullah bin Umar, RasulAllah (Sallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) said, "A Muslim is a brother of another Muslim, so he should not oppress him, nor should he hand him over to an oppressor. Whoever fulfilled the needs of his brother, Allah will fulfill his needs; whoever brought his (Muslim) brother out of a discomfort, Allah will bring him out of the discomforts of the Day of Resurrection, and whoever screened a Muslim, Allah will screen him on the Day of Resurrection." [Bukhari Book 3 Volume 43 Hadith 622]

****

Whenever you are distressed, worried or confused, just close your eyes, take a deep breath and say: Oh Allah; I love You! I know its your plan, and I put my complete trust in you. You are with me always, and I will succeed because I have supplicated to you. Please protect me and bless me. Ameen

Spend O Son of Adam

The Messenger of Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said, “Allah has said, ‘Spend (on charity) O son of Adam, and I shall spend on you.’”

[Sahih Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

“O Son of Adam! As Long as you call me …”

Anas (radi Allahu anhu) said that he heard the Messenger of Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) say: “Allah the Exalted said: “O son of Adam! As long as you invoke Me and plead to Me, I will forgive you whatever you have committed, and I will not make much of it. O son of Adam! If your evil deeds reach the borders of the sky, and then you ask Me for forgiveness, I will forgive you. O son of Adam! If you bring forth the earth full of errors, then you meet Me while you do not associate anything (or anyone) with Me, I will bring forth for you its full of forgiveness.”

Sahih Bukhari

Volume 7, Book 68, Number 453:

Narrated Al-Bara:

The Prophet said (on the day of Idal-Adha), "The first thing we will do on this day of ours, is to offer the ('Id) prayer and then return to slaughter the sacrifice. Whoever does so, he acted according to our Sunna (tradition), and whoever slaughtered (the sacrifice) before the prayer, what he offered was just meat he presented to his family, and that will not be considered as Nusak (sacrifice)." (On hearing that) Abu Burda bin Niyar got up, for he had slaughtered the sacrifice before the prayer, and said, "I have got a six month old ram." The Prophet said, 'Slaughter it (as a sacrifice) but it will not be sufficient for any-one else (as a sacrifice after you). Al-Bara' added: The Prophet said, "Whoever slaughtered (the sacrifice) after the prayer, he slaughtered it at the right time and followed the tradition of the Muslims."

The Prophet Muhammad (sal Allaahu alayhi wa sallam) said:"If a human dies, then his good deeds stop except for three: a Sadaqa Jariah (continuous charity), a beneficial knowledge, or a righteous child who prays for him". [Narrated by Muslim]

"Hadith Qudsi 34:"

On the authority of Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say:

"Allah the Almighty said:

'O son of Adam, so long as you call upon Me and ask of Me, I shall forgive you for what you have done, and I shall not mind. O son of Adam, were your sins to reach the clouds of the sky and were you then to ask forgiveness of Me, I would forgive you. O son of Adam, were you to come to Me with sins nearly as great as the earth and were you then to face Me, ascribing no partner to Me, I would bring you forgiveness nearly as great as it.'"

[At-Tirmidhi (also by Ahmad ibn Hanbal). Its chain of authorities is sound.]

Narrated Ibn 'Umar:

Allah's Apostle (saw) said: Islam is based on (the following) five (principles):

1. To testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and Muhammad is Allah's Apostle.

2. To offer the (compulsory congregational) prayers dutifully and perfectly.

3. To pay Zakat (i.e. obligatory charity) .

4. To perform Hajj. (i.e. Pilgrimage to Mecca)

5. To observe fast during the month of Ramadan. (s)

[COLOR="DarkRed"][SIZE="3"][FONT="Comic Sans MS"]Haya will not bring anything except good.
(Sahih Bukhari)[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

Sahih Bukhari, Volume 2, Book 13, Number 8:
Narrated Salman-Al-Farsi (رضی الله تعالیٰ عنہ):

The Prophet (ﺻﻠﯽ ﺍﻟﻠﮧ ﺗﻌﺎﻟﯽٰ ﻋﻠﯿﮧ ﻭﺍٓﻟﮧ ﻭﺳﻠﻢ) said, "Whoever takes a bath on Friday, purifies himself as much as he can, then uses his (hair) oil or perfumes himself with the scent of his house, then proceeds (for the Jumua prayer) and does not separate two persons sitting together (in the mosque), then prays as much as ALLAH (سبحانه وتعالى) has written for him and then remains silent while the Imam is delivering the Khutba, his sins in-between the present and the last Friday would be forgiven."

[B][U]Honouring Parents:
[/U][/B]
As we conclude our ‘Honouring ones Parents’ series, it is a must that we revise some of the important points and benefits that we have gained regarding this great topic:

Firstly: It is obedience to Allah and His Messenger (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam), Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“And We have enjoined on man to be good and dutiful to his parents”

[al-‘Ankaboot 29:8]

“And your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him. And that you be dutiful to your parents. If one of them or both of them attain old age in your life, say not to them a word of disrespect, nor shout at them but address them in terms of honour.

And lower unto them the wing of submission and humility through mercy, and say: ‘My Lord! Bestow on them Your Mercy as they did bring me up when I was young’”

[al-Israa’ 17:23]

In al-Saheehayn it is reported that Ibn ‘Abbaas said: “The Messenger of Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) was asked which deed is the best? He said, ‘Faith in Allah and His Messenger, then honouring one’s parents…’”

Secondly: obeying and honouring one’s parents is a means of entering Paradise, as it was reported in Saheeh Muslim from Abu Hurayrah that the Prophet (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “He is doomed, he is doomed, he is doomed.” It was said, “Who, O Messenger of Allaah?” He said, “The person whose parents, one or both of them, reach old age during his lifetime but he does not enter Paradise.”

Thirdly: Respecting and honouring them brings friendship and love.

Fourthly: respecting and obeying them is a way of showing gratitude to them because they are the ones who brought you into this world. You should also show gratitude towards them for bringing you up and taking care of you when you were young. Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“And We have enjoined on man (to be dutiful and good) to his parents”

[Luqmaan 31:14]

Fifthly: if a person honours his parents this may be the cause of his own children honouring him. Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“Is there any reward for good other than good?’

[al-Rahmaan 55:60]

And lastly, maintaining the ties of kinship (which includes the parents) is a reason for having your lifespan extended and rizq (provision) increased.

The Prophet (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “Whoever would like his rizq (provision) to be increased and his life to be extended, should uphold the ties of kinship.”

[Sahihl Al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim]

We ask Allah to make us from those who honor their parents and from those who maintain and uphold the ties of kinship.

Rasul Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “Beware, … for what else throws men into the Fire upon their faces or upon their noses, but the harvests of their tongues.” [Tirmidhi]

The seven shaded

The Messenger of Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said, “There are seven whom Allah will shade with His shade on the day when there will be no shade except His: the just ruler; a young man who grows up worshipping his Lord; a man whose heart is attached to the mosque; two men who love one another for the sake of Allah and meet and part on that basis; a man who is called by a woman of rank and beauty and says ‘I fear Allah’; a man who gives in charity and conceals it to such an extent that his left hand does not know what his right hand gives; and a man who remembers Allah when he is alone, and his eyes fill up.”

[Sahih Al-Bukhari and Muslim]
