Reminder for me..given from someone..reminder for everyone too….

My dear sisters in Islam, I welcome you all with the best of greetings:

As Salamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullah Wa Barakatuh.

By Allah, my dear sisters in Islam, we should not overlook this blessing that Allah (subhanhu wa ta'ala) has granted us with, this blessing of Islam is and should be the most precious thing in our life.

Yes, the most important, Islam should be dearer to you than your own parents, Islam should be dearer to you than your own husband, and Islam should be dearer to you than your own child as this religion will guide you.

It will give you success in all aspects of life; it will give you the respect you're looking for, it will give you the honour you're looking for and more importantly it will give you the guidance you need so that you may attain the everlasting bliss from the hereafter.

Remember O sisters, remember your role in society, do not belittle your job in society, you are the mothers who look after the family, you are the one who show love and respect to its members, you are the first of the teachers of this Ummah, you are the soothers and carers of the men of this ummah, the success of this ummah lays upon your shoulders O sisters of Islam.

Remember khadija, the first wife of Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), she was one of the greatest women that ever lived. In the early stages of the prophet hood of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (Peace and Blessings be up on him), she protected him, she gave him finance, she cared for him, she comforted him and most importantly she believed in him.

My dear sisters in Islam, as we look around in today's society, we notice that many sisters are being mislead, we notice that more and more sisters are living for this world and not for the hereafter, more and more sisters do not know who Allah (subhanhu wa ta'ala) is, more and more sisters are leaving the prayers, more and more sisters are taking off the hijab and more and more sisters are being seen in nightclubs and pubs, dating men and having a good time.

My dear sisters in Islam, we must wake up before it's too late, we must start changing and make Islam our priority in life, we must love Allah (subhanhu wa ta'ala) more than anything else in this world, we must stay focused on all this deception that is happening, we must remember the very reason of our existence as Allah (subhanhu wa ta'ala) said in the Quran: "I have not created the jinn nor mankind only, so that they worship Me", meaning Allah (subhanhu wa ta'ala), my dear sisters in Islam, if you love diamonds and pearls, do not be deceived by this worldly treasures as the treasure in the hereafter is far greater, look at the sign of dead, as we speak someone dies and they will have eternal lives, will they live in the paradise and enjoy its bliss or will they suffer in the hellfire?

There is much more than can be said.  I shall conclude with the advice of Rasul Allah - sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam - to every Muslim mother, daughter, and wife: "If the women prays her five (Salah), fasts her month (of Ramadan), protects herself (from committing Zina), and listens to her husband, it will be said to her, `from any door you wish, enter Paradise!" 

Sister, that is where you want to be.

"O you who believe! give your response to Allah and His Messenger, when He calls you to that which shall give you life"(Surah Al Anfal 8/24)

And my final quote to you is:

Allah and His Messenger are calling you to life.  Dear sister, reply!

 
 

 
 

Allah Knows Best
