Sunnah Of The Day!
The Prophet – Peace be upon him – said: “If you want to wear your shoes, start with the right foot and if you want to take it off, start with the left. Or you should either wear them both at the same time, or take them both off” Narrated by Muslim. This Sunnah is repeated at day and night so many times; the Muslim wears and takes off his shoes to go out and come back from the Masjed, work, home, bathroom …etc, therefore, when you wear or take off the shoes according to the Sunna with the intention of following the example of the Prophet – Peace be upon him – you will gain a lot of good deeds.
You’ll never be this young again, death is one day closer to you today. Shouldn’t you start being serious about your religion?
The best decision you can make right now is to turn to Allah and return to him.
وَلَا تَتَّبِعِ ٱلْهَوَىٰ فَيُضِلَّكَ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ
“And do not follow [your own] desire, as it will lead you astray from the way of Allah.” Surah Sad [38:26]
Last night, I watched Nouman Ali Khan’s lecture on youtube. It’s about how to deal with sadness and depression according to Qur’an. This surah is one of the great examples of the remedy that Qur’an offers. And I just noticed that Allah SWT uses several words in the Qur’an to define sadness. As a matter of fact, the name Yusuf comes from Arabic word “Asaf” which means sadness that manifested into a particular raging action. I mean, isn’t i t great how the name represents the life that he had? I don’t know, I can’t describe it in a better way. Just go watch it. It’s worthwhile.
There comes a time when society deems the unimaginable acceptable, the unethical ethical, the unnatural natural and the sinful virtuous.
At that time, you must be strong and courageous enough to be a stranger in a strange society.
