Five Steps To Achieve Sincerity by Nobody: 11:13am On Oct 03, 2017 |
FIVE TIPS TO ACHIEVE SINCERITY 1. IMPROVE YOUR PRIVATE LIFE Imam Al-Ghazali said, “The first stage of sincerity is that your private and public state should be the same.” 2. ASK ALLAH FOR SINCERITY The Prophet ﷺ would often say “Oh Allah I seek refuge in associating partners with you knowingly, and I seek your forgiveness if I did so unknowingly” 3. HIDE YOUR GOOD DEEDS “If you disclose your Sadaqat (almsgiving), it is well: but if you conceal them and give them to the poor, that is better for you. (Allah) will expiate you some of your sins.” (Quran 2:271) The Prophetﷺ said: “Allah will shade seven types of people on the Day of Judgment-the day where there is no shade but Allah’s shade…” Two of those people he mentioned were: “The person who gives charity and kept it so secretly to the extent that his left hand does not know the right hand gave.” “And the person that remembers Allah privately until his eyes filled with tears.” Salamah Bin Dinar said, “Hide your good deeds (from the people) just like you hide your evil deeds”. 4. AVOID BOASTFULNESS Belittling our good deeds will lead to sincerity. Never consider your good deeds to great, rather understand such actions are solely due to Allah’s favour. Allah has said “So do not claim yourselves to be pure; He is most knowing of who fears Him.” (Quran 53:32 ) 5. ASK ALLAH TO PRESERVE YOUR GOOD DEEDS AND NEVER BE PROUD OF YOUR RIGHTEOUS ACTIONS Stay away from Praise The Prophetﷺ heard a man praise a man and extol him in praise, so he said: ‘You have destroyed or cut the back of the man.” We should always strive to be loved by people, but we should never be boastful. Always remind yourself that this is all from Allah. Our rank in this dunya doesn’t elevate our ranks in the eyes of Allah. “And they were not commanded except with this: that they should worship Allah, being completely sincere in the Din.” [Al-Qur’an 98:5] We ask Allah to make our actions sincere for His sake. |

Bismillahir_Rahmanir_Rahim SIT DOWN,CHECK UP, MEDITATE, CRY OUT FOR HELP WHEN YOU NOTICE THESE IN YOUR LIFE. 1. Beware When prayer becomes a difficult thing for you. 2. Beware When fasting is becoming a history in your spiritual timetable. 3. Beware When you no longer enjoy reading the word of Allah n His Rasul. 4. Beware When attending Da'awa or Wa'azi is becoming a burden rather than a blessing for you. 5. Beware When living a life of holiness is appearing like u are better than orders. 6. Beware When sinful living becomes a lifestyle in the name of grace. 7. Beware When you crave for earthly things rather than the things of Allah. 8. Beware When waking up in the night to pray is becoming a thing of the past. 9. Beware brethren, when your heart no longer desires to see Allah one day. 10. Beware when you eat more than pray. 11. Beware when you no longer share the word with others. 12. Beware When u start diluting the preaching of Allah's word to keep or suite people around you. 13. Beware When you spend more time on Facebook, WhatsApp, Twitter, and Internet. These things become idols and take the place of Allah. 14. Beware When you ignore messages such as these. Beware of all these, brethren. Shaitan isn't resting. We too must be vigilant. PLEASE DON'T LET SHARING THIS BECOME A BURDEN LET US ALL BE CONSCIOUS OF THE LAST DAYS. |

Dr. ZAKIR NAIK Dear all Muslim Brothers and Friends.. Please Don't write GOD Please Write always "Allah" Because there is no description of GOD in the HOLY QURAN. Don't say "Mosque" Always say "Masjid" Because Islamic Organization has found that Mosque means, Mosquitoes. Don't write "Mecca" write always correctly "Makkah" Because Mecca means House of Wines. Don't write "Mohd" write always completely "Muhammad" Because Mohd means The dog with big mouth. If you have package, Please forward it to our Muslim Friends. ﺍﻟﺮﺟﺎﺀ ﺍﺭﺳﺎﻟﻬﺎ ﺍﻟﻰ ﺍﺻﺪﻗﺎﺋﻚ ﺍﻟﻤﺴﻠﻤﻴﻦ Muslim population Afghanistan 100% Albania 75% Algeria 99% Angola 25% Argentina 2% Australia 2.09% Azerbaijan 93% Bahrin 100% Bangladesh 85% Bhutan 5% Brazil 0.6% Burma 10% Canada 1.48% Cntral africn 55% China 11% Egypt 94% Ethopia 65% Fiji 11% France 7% Georgia 11% Germeny 3.4% Greece 1.5% Guinea 95% Guyana 15% Hongkong 1% India 14% Indonesia 85% Iran 99% Iraq 97% Isreal 14% Italy 1% Japan 1% Jordan 95% Kenya 30% Kuwait 89% Lebanon 70% Libya 100% Maldives 100% Malasiya 52% Mauritius 19.5% Mayotte 99% Nigeria 75% Oman 100% Pakistan 97% Phillipines 14% Qatar 100% Romania 20% Russia 18% Saudi arab 100% Singapore 17% Somalia 100% Sri lanka 9% Sudan 85% Syria 90% Tazakistan 85% Tanzania 65% Thailand 14% Tunisia 98% Turkey 99.8% UAE 96% UK 2.5% USA 3.75% Uzbekistan 88% Where the Prophets originated..

Please read this to the end. You hardly have timej for Allah; but He loves you and always blesses you. He is always with you. I need you to spend 30mns of your time with him today. Don't pray, just praise Him. Today I want this message across the world before midnight. Will you help? Please do not I cut the chain. He always grants you all the things that you are in need of. So please drop everything and pass this on. Don't break this chain. Send this to other friends. Why Do we feel sleepy in Prayer? But stay awake throughout a 3 hours movie. Why are we so bored when we look at the HOLY BOOK? But find it easy to read other books. Why is it so easy to ignore a message about Allah? Yet we forward the nasty/funny ones. Why are Masjids getting smaller? But Bars and Night Clubs are expanding. Why is it so easy to worship a celebrity? But very difficult to engage with Allah. Think about it, are you going to forward this? Or are you going to ignore it because you think you will get laughed at? Forward this to all your friends/contacts. I know 80% of you may not forward this; so be among the 20% who might. Remember; Allah (SWT) said: If you deny Me in front of your friends, I will deny you on the day of judgment: |
