رَبِّ ابْنِ لِى عِندَكَ بَيْتاً فِى الْجَنَّةِ

The Muslim Woman Increases More in Worship in Ramadhan


the Muslim Women increases in worship. That is because when the women strives in the service of her husband and the members of her household and she prepares food for them that which will suffice them, then she is in obedience to Allaah, ‘Azza wa Jal, provided that she seeks the reward from Allaah. Therefore, in this is a reward for her and also an increment for her good deeds. And it is befitting for the Muslim Women when she is preparing the food that she busies her tongue with the remembrance of Allaah. So while she is cooking she glorifies Allaah, while she is cooking she is saying tahleel (Laa ilaaha illa Allaah - None has the right to be worshiped except Allaah), while she is cooking she is remembering Allaah and in that she will have a tremendous reward. (Like this) preparing food will never divert her from the obedience of her Lord, Glorified is He, during the day of Ramadhan

Benefits & great wisdom of Sawm - Sheikh `Abdul-`Aziz ibn Baaz


Fond d'écran animé, screensaver 240x320 pour téléphone portableO Muslims, you are in the great sacred month of Ramadhan, the month of Sawm (Fast) & Qiyam-ul-Layl (optional Prayer at night). In this month, Allaah opens the door of forgiveness & sets His Pious Servants free from the Hellfire. Ramadhan is the month of giving Sadaqah (voluntary charity), a month in which the doors of Paradise are opened, rewards of deeds are multiplied, hardships are removed, supplications are answered, ranks are elevated, & sins are forgiven. During this month, Allaah (سُبحانه وتعالى) provides His servants with all kinds of bounties & showers His Awliya' (pious people) with blessings. This is a month in which Allaah has made observing Sawm in it one of the pillars of Islaam. 

It is the month in which the Prophet (صلّى اللَّهُ عليه وسلّم) observed Sawm & commanded the people to do the same. He (صلّى اللَّهُ عليه وسلّم) informed us that whoever observes Sawm in Ramadhan out of sincere faith & hoping for Allaah's Reward, their previous sins shall be forgiven; and that those who observe Qiyam-ul-Layl in Ramadhan out of sincere faith & hoping for Allaah's Reward, their previous sins shall be forgiven. In this month, there is one night that is better than a thousand months...

The Ruling of Oversleeping when Fasting

Sheikh Saleh al Fawzaan حفظه الله was asked:

There is a person who prohibits (the people from) over sleeping in Ramadhan & says "it is upon a Muslim to be awake and active, it is not appropriate that he over sleeps". So, what is your opinion O' noble Sheikh?

A: Yes he should warn from over sleeping in this Month (Ramadhan), I mean sleeping in the day (time) because it makes (one) lazy from performing acts of obedience, perhaps it may cause one to miss the congregation prayer or it may cause the time for (that specific prayer) to pass by. What is requested from a Muslim is that he be energetic in acts of obedience and (that) he sleeps in the night, especially in the first part of it (the night), so he can arise in the morning energetic to perform and participate in acts of obedience.

(The Reference: al Muntaqaa, (111/5), fatwa number:167)

Two Islaamic Verdicts pertaining to Abstaining from food before Fajr & Breaking the fast exactly at Sun-Set
(Sheikh Saleh bin Uthaimeen رحمه الله)

** What is the ruling on eating & drinking while the Muadhin is calling the adhaan or after the adhaan has been called by a short period, particularly if the entering of dawn is not exactly known?

** A question was posed to the Permanent Committee of Islaamic Verdicts in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia: Is it permissible for a person to break his fast before (hearing) the adhaan (the call to prayer) as long as he is certain the sun has set?

Translation: Abu ‘atiya Mahmood As-Somali

As-Suhoor - It's Virtue, It's Ruling and Issues Pertaining To It

 

Compiled & translated by: Younus bin Muhammad As-Somaalee

As-Suhoor is:
"Preparing to fast by eating & drinking before daybreak"

Al-Hafidh Ibn Hajar says:
”As-Suhoor can be as less as what a person has from food or drink.”
- (Al-Fath V.4, Pg.169)

The Blessing of As-Suhoor:
Al-Hafidh Ibn Hajar said:
“The Blessing of As-Suhoor is achieved from a lot of different things:
That it is following the sunnah, contradicting the people of the book, it strengthens a person in worship, increases him in energy, it defends that bad etiquette that hunger brings, it causes a person to give charity by feeding somebody if he asks him or gets together with him to eat As-Suhoor, it causes a person to remember Allaah & to invoke him in a time where it is expected to be answered , it gives the person a chance to make his intention to fast if he was heedless of it before he slept.”

How could you make reconciliation with the devil??

Fond d'écran animé, screensaver 240x320 pour téléphone portable

Ibn Al-Jawzee رحمه الله said: 

O you who severed the connection to his Lord, return. O you who vowed to reject his Lord, repent. You were honoured when Iblees (the devil) was ordered to prostrate to you, whereas Iblees was cast afar when he refused to do so (i.e., such was his hatred of you). Yet, I truly wonder at you! How could you, in spite of that, make reconciliation with the devil and boycott your Lord?!
