Where is Respect?

Its been a long while 🙂

Sounds funny when i actually wasn’t always here.

Buts its  been a while🙄

I started this blog to jote down my thoughts on things i enjoy. But i got carried away with the “trying to have content for followers”

I read  about a podcast interview of a blogger (i didn’t pick her nane) but i picked here words “just have fun with it”

So! Thats what i’m gonna be doing, withing islamic limits though.

My thoughts can be really complicated but i just want to vent and i’m doing here😥

Afterall its mytboughts blog 🤗

Okay!!!!

Youu know there are some days you just feel like a renowed writer, it one if those days. 

And two events happen on my way home  today.

And it got me thinking………..where is the respect?

It seems like that word or rather the act is lost.

Respect for ones self anf others.

On my way home from work today and i take two buses home. 

The first bus,

A uniformed official, a man and 50% of the buses passangers. Serious aguments, treats and noises. I don’t get how people enjoy drama when all i wanted was to get home.

The cause of all the caos, sit space. Yes!

 I was here before you 😦

And what was so annoying was the uniform man didn’t seize to have himself duely insuted. He just couldn’t keep quite.

Second, bus, a tricycle, 

The driver a young man who just couldn’t help but lord his possition as a driver over the old man his passenger and over paid fare o.

I intervened in both cases. 

I just hate unnneccessary banters.

Where is respect?

Does no one respects anyone anymore?

AL-WAARITH, AL-QUDDOOS, AS-SUBBUH, AS-SALAM, AL-MUMIN, AL-HAQQ

Assalam alaykum waramatullah wabarakatu.

How are you all doing?

How many names and attributes of ALLAH have you memorised?

We’re taking it slow and steady here🙄

AL-WAARITH: THE INHERITOR
ALLAH, it is HE who will remain after all creations cease to exist. HE is the owner of all things and HE gives and denies to whom ever HE wills.

It occurs in the Qur’an 3times.

‘وَإِنَّا لَنَحْنُ نُحْيِي وَنُمِيتُ وَنَحْنُ الْوَارِثُونَ

And verily, it is We Who give life, and Who give death: it is We Who remain inheritors (after all else passes away).’ Surah Al-Hijr Qur’an 15 vs 23

AL-QUDDOS: THE HOLY
ALLAH is free of any imperfection, and evil is not attributed ti HIM,for all perfect and sublime attributes belongs to HIM.

It occurs in the Qur’an twice.

‘يُسَبِّحُ لِلَّهِ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ الْمَلِكِ الْقُدُّوسِ الْعَزِيزِ الْحَكِيمِ

Whatever is in the heavens and on earth, doth declare the Praises and Glory of Allah,- the Sovereign, the Holy One, the Exalted in Might, the Wise.’ (Surah Al-Jumu’ah, Qur’an 62 vs 1)

AL-SUBBUH: THE EXTREMELY GLORIFIED
ALLAH is free of all imperfections. HE begot none nor was HE begotten. This beautiful name of ALLAH is mentioned in the teaches of the Prophet (peace be upon him).

‘Aisha may ALLAH be pleased with her, narrated that the Prophet peace be upon him, used to say in his bowing and prostration while praying “Subbuhun quddusun rabb-ul-malaa’ikatu warroh. (You are the supremely Glorified, the Holy. You are the LORD of the angles and of jubril) ” (Reported by Muslim).

AL-SALAM : The FLAWLESS, THE SOURCE OF PEACE.
It is ALLAH who grants security to all HIS creations.

It occurs once in the Qur’an.

‘هُوَ اللَّهُ الَّذِي لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ الْمَلِكُ الْقُدُّوسُ السَّلَامُ الْمُؤْمِنُ الْمُهَيْمِنُ الْعَزِيزُ الْجَبَّارُ الْمُتَكَبِّرُ ۚ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ
Allah is He, than Whom there is no other god;- the Sovereign, the Holy One, the Source of Peace (and Perfection), the Guardian of Faith, the Preserver of Safety, the Exalted in Might, the Irresistible, the Supreme: Glory to Allah! (High is He) above the partners they attribute to Him.’ Surah Al-Hashr Qur’an 59 vs 23

AL-MU’MIN: THE GRANTER OF SECURITY
ALLAH is the one who grants peace and security to HIS servants, assuring them that HE will not wrong them in any way and provide peace and security to HIS righteous servants. This is evident in the peace and tranquillity they find in their hearts, as well as the absence of fear when they turn to HIM IN this life, and  absence of fear which they will feel on the day of judgement, the day of great fear.

It occurs once in the Qur’an.

”هُوَ اللَّهُ الَّذِي لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ الْمَلِكُ الْقُدُّوسُ السَّلَامُ الْمُؤْمِنُ الْمُهَيْمِنُ الْعَزِيزُ الْجَبَّارُ الْمُتَكَبِّرُ ۚ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ
Allah is He, than Whom there is no other god;- the Sovereign, the Holy One, the Source of Peace (and Perfection), the Guardian of Faith, the Preserver of Safety, the Exalted in Might, the Irresistible, the Supreme: Glory to Allah! (High is He) above the partners they attribute to Him. Surah Al-Hashr Qur’an 59 vs 23

AL-HAQQ: THE TRUTH
HE is ALLAH perfect in all things. All HE says in the QUR’AN is true, HIS promises are true, HIS judgements are true. And HE will never wrong HIS creations.

AL-HAQQ occurs 10 times in the QUR’AN.

‘فَتَعَالَى اللَّهُ الْمَلِكُ الْحَقُّ ۖ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْكَرِيمِ
Therefore exalted be Allah, the King, the Reality: there is no god but He, the Lord of the Throne of Honour!’

Surah Al-Mu’minun Qur’an 23 vs 116.

AL-HAYY الحي : The Ever-living

It’s day 2 of our quest to  Jannah  (Paradise)Alhamdulilah.

These beautiful names of ALLAH           AL-WAAHID and AL-AHAD points to the Oneness of ALLAH as the only one deserving of worship.

HE is, and has always been, ONE, without anyone else. HE is not begotten and beget not, HE is unique and there is no one like HIM. HE is unique in HIS attributes, actions and LORDSHIP.

HE is the only one deserving of worship.

ALLAH الله and AR-RABB الرب

May the peace and blessings of ALLAH be on us all.

We starts today😃 YES !!! Memorising the beautiful names of ALLAH and it’s meanings. So let’s start from the top😊

 ALLAH الله

ALLAH is the  proper name of GOD. 

It indicates that ALLAH is the true GOD who alone deserves to be worshipped, whom all creatures worship out if love, praise HIS greatness, revere HIM in times of need and adversity. 

In fact, the name ALLAH encompasses all the meaning of HIS beautiful names.

ALLAH is mentioned in the QUR’AN 2724times.

“Surely I am ALLAH, there is no God but I; therefore, worship Me and keep up prayers for MY remembrance” (Suratul Ta-Ha, Qur’an 20 vs 14)

The creator, the owner and disposer of all affairs. The one who bestows blessings upon HIS creatures. The one who looked after HIS righteous servants.

AR-RABB must not be attributed to any other than ALLAH. 

However when the word Rabb is used in a sentence, it is used to to signify the owner. e.g: rabb al-usrah- the head of the family.

AR-RABB is seen in the Qur’an 900times.

“All praises is due to ALLAH, the LORD of the worlds” (Suratul Al-Faatihah Qur’an 1 vs 2)

​Make Paradise in 99!!!

Have you just wondered how we are just not thinking about the hereafter?! (yes it doesn’t all end here, we die then the next life).

We are so consumed with our daily activities and how to make ends meet (it’s not a sin though), but we forget why we are here and what we need to do to make paradise!

ALLAH the most gracious knows us best and has given us simple means or ways just to make sure we don’t lose out on eternal bliss. Paradise. Hence, HE revealed what I term Bonanzas for us to easily make paradise.
They are shortcuts to make  paradise (with efforts my dear) and these are numerous from the teaching of our beloved Prophet peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him.

I’ll share one of such Bonanza’s or shortcuts to paradise.

Narrated by Abu Hurairah (RA) : The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of ALLAH be upon him) said: “ALLAH has ninety nine names and whoever memorises them will enter Paradise.”
(Source: Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 2677)
(Graded: Sahih (authentic) according to Muslim)

Wow! 99 names and this would help a Muslim gain paradise?! 😃

Now if you are not already learning these names, and you had memorised more than a 1000 wards during your pursuing your education, then you should recheck yourself! (me inclusive😢).

So here’s the deal, I as much as somany of you want to make it there with Rosulullah. 

Sooo, let’s memorise one or two or three of the beautiful names of ALLAH  with its meaning every day here!!

It’s will take us 99days or way less by the mercy of ALLAH.

What do you say👂

It’s amazing right😉

May we be rewarded for our efforts here in this world and in the next with paradise. Amin

don’t mind the exhibition showing on the picture. I snapped a cover page😆credit for this writeup goes to my best friend my Husband. I edited.😊

😊😄😁

​It’s a beautiful day because you are alive today.

It’s a day filled with so much abundance because you believe in the master of abundance.

It’s a day to be all you can and more because you are directed my the one who has no limitations.

Live, be happy and optimistic for this day and all your days shall be blessed beyond your imagination. 
Have a pleasantly successful day and week. 
Remember to say Alhamdulilah always 😀

BE MINDFUL

Be mindful of ALLAH and you will find HIM before you

Assalam Alaykum Waramatullah Wabarakatuh
May the peace , mercies and blessings of ALLAH be upon you!

Abu al-‘Abbas ‘Abdullah bin ‘Abbas (R.A) reports: “One day I was riding (a horse/camel) behind the Prophet (S.A.W) when he said, ‘Young man, I will teach you some words. “Be mindful of ALLAH, and HE will take care of you. Be mindful of HIM, and you shall find HIM at your side

If you ask, ask of ALLAH. If you need help, seek it from ALLAH.

Know that if the whole world were to gather together in order to help you, they would not be able to help you except if ALLAH had written so. And if the whole world were to gather together in order to harm you, they would not harm you except if ALLAH had written so.
The pens have been lifted, and the pages are dry.” (Tirmidhi)

O ALLAH! Please don’t forsake us in all our endeavours, amin.

Love of the Beloved

​It’s so beautiful I cann’t but share ❤

The poetry was written by one of the winners of the love of the Beloved competition. A girl of about 6 years old.

6-10 Category: Sumayya Hassan (6)

I love You Allah in different ways

O Allah!

I want to tell you I love you in different ways

And so I begin this poem by giving You praise

I love You for giving me Jannah on Earth

She is my sister who has been with me since birth.

O Allah!

I love you so very very much

Even though I cannot see You or touch

I love you more than any other

Even more than my father and mother.

O Allah!

I love you more than myself

I love you more than money and wealth

I love You for giving me Iman and health

Iman and health are the best wealth.

O Allah!

You are Al-Baseer, the seer

When I am afraid You are always near

You are Al-Samee’, You hear

When I remember You I have no fear.

O Allah!

I love You for being Al-Khaliq, my maker

You gave me life and you are the taker

I love You for being my Wali, my friend

On the day that everything will end.

Everything will end but You will remain

When you create me again, I will love you again.
