Takbir at-Tashriq and Arafah Fast Reminder
Just a quick reminder that we should all start reciting the Takbir at-Tashriq beginning from Fajr on the 9th of Dhul Hijjah, continuing through Asr on the 13th. This should be recited immediately following the prayer, by anyone who offers the fard prayer, whether male or female. There are some valid differences within the madhhab [...]

3 Stages to Tahajjud
One of the most virtuous of the nawafil acts of worship is waking up in the middle of the night for tahajjud prayer. This is that special time when the doors of mercy are thrown open and the angels are dispersed, seeking out those in need of their Lord. Yet, how unfortunate our situation is [...]

The 10 Days of Dhul Hijjah
Abu Hurayrah (radiallahu anhu) narrates the Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) said, “On no days is the worship of Allah desired more than in the (first) ten days of Dhul Hijjah. The fast of each of these days is equal to the fast of a whole year, and the worship of each of these nights [...]

Ensuring a Strong Bond – Seeking Forgiveness
One of the first steps on the path to Allah Most High is to ensure that we seek forgiveness from those wrong actions we have committed in the past. Each time we sin, disobeying Allah or leaving one of his commandments, we add a layer of spiritual filth onto our hearts. The result of this [...]
Am I Using My Time Wisely
One of the things we all struggle with it is whether or not we are using our time wisely. We know we are to be like a traveler in this world who has just stopped under a tree for some rest, yet we find ourselves constantly drawn into the dunya and the pleasures of this [...]
The Answer to an Unanswered Dua
Sometimes we make dua, asking Allah Most High sincerely, yet it seems as though our dua is not being answered. However the reality is that the lack of an answer is in fact the answer. Think about why we make dua. We have a problem, we cannot solve it, so we turn to Allah Most [...]
Benefitting from Silence
Shaykh Baqi Billah (may Allah have mercy upon him) was known for speaking very little. When he was asked one day to say a few words to benefit the people (give nasihah), he remained silent. When he was asked again, he replied “Those who cannot benefit from my silence will never benefit from my words.”
2 Things You Should Never Mention
