Don’t Miss Out On Oil Pulling Benefits

If you are looking for one thing that you can do to improve your overall health enormously, you should add oil pulling to your daily regimen. Many people say it helps them feel amazing! Oil pulling benefits have been reported, not only for oral health such as reducing tooth decay and cavities, but also for improvement in a wide range of diseases. Since I tried oil pulling, I’m convinced that what everyone says about oil pulling is definitely true and it makes sense because the health of the oral cavity is connected to overall body health!  There are so many oil pulling benefits that I have to list them for you! (This article was sent to me from a sister in the US.)

Try to Meet Allaah with this...

It is reported that a man once wrote to Ibn ʿUmar (may Allāh be pleased with them):

"Please write down all knowledge for me. Ibn ʿUmar replied: 'Knowledge is vast, but if you can meet Allāh having kept your back light of the burden of people’s blood, your stomach void of people’s wealth and having kept your tongue from [disparaging] their honour, then do so."'

Advice & Recommendations for the one who suffers from Stress & Anxiety

 

Ibn Al-Qayyim (May Allaah have mercy on him) said: 

"Grief, sorrow and distress only come from two directions. One of it is the desire of this worldly life and having zeal for it & the second is shortening in the actions of obedience and piety."

(Uddah As-Sabarieen pg. 227)

Is it allowed/Halaal to find out the Gender of a baby?

Q: There is a kind of a table circulated widely among women bearing the so-called "Chinese Gender Prediction Calculator". It specifies whether the fetus is male or female through the age of the mother and the solar month in which conception took place (a copy of the paper is attached to the question). Is it possible for doctors to determine the gender of the fetus? What is the ruling on such and similar calculators? May Allaah reward you with the best for benefiting Islam and Muslims.

A: No one but Allaah (Glorified be He) can know the gender of the fetus before it is fully formed. However, after the fetus is fully formed, its gender can be identified through medical rays, something which Allaah made within the boundaries of human capability.

As for determining its gender through the calculator mentioned above, it is false and groundless as it involves claiming knowledge of the Ghayb, which is known only by Allaah. Moreover, such a table has to be destroyed and its circulation among people has to be banned.

May Allaah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family and Companions.

Having Patience simultaneously with awaiting Allaah’s reward

Sheikh Uthaymeen رحمه الله said,

“If the person’s attitude towards ordeals follows a course of patience without awaiting Allaah’s reward, a considerable amount of his sins shall be forgiven. But, if he maintains patience simultaneously with awaiting Allaah’s reward, he shall reap a reward besides the forgiveness of sins. Awaiting Allaah’s reward means: to believe that the patience one endures during the ordeal shall be compensated with a reward from Allaah. This implicitly reflects one’s trust in Allaah, Who, in return, will grant him what he besought from Him."
