🌍 Forgotten Ummah Ansār Winter Campaign - Stand 4 Sham ❄️

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته

*This winter, families in Syria and refugees in Turkey face the freezing cold with little to protect them. With £30, you can provide a small essentials pack (blankets, food, warm clothing). For £60, a large pack can bring even more comfort.

Our brothers from Ansār Group will hopefully go at the end of the year to deliver aid in person, ensuring it reaches those who need it most.

Let’s be their warmth in this harsh season.

The Day of ʿArafah (The Ultimate Day of Mercy)

اَللّٰهُ أَكْبَرُ اَللّٰهُ أَكْبَرُ لَا إِلٰهَ إلَّا اللّٰهُ وَاللّٰهُ أَكْبَرُ اَللّٰهُ
أَكْبَرُ وَلِلّٰهِ الْحَمْدُ

“Allāh is the Greatest. Allāh is the Greatest. There is no god worthy of worship but Allāh and Allāh is the Greatest. Allāh is the Greatest and all praise is for Allāh alone.”

The Importance of Studying The Names of Allāh

The Prophet ﷺ said, “Allāh has ninety-nine names. Whoever preserves [understands] them will enter Paradise.” Sahīh Bukhārī [no. 7392]
- “Whoever knows the names of Allāh and their meanings, believing in them, will have a more complete faith than the one who does not know them but just believes in them in general.” See Majmoū Al-Fatāwa [7/234] by Shaykhul Islām Ibn Taymīyyah.

- “Whoever knows Allāh, knows everything other than Him. Whoever is ignorant of his Lord is even more ignorant of everything other than Him.” Madārij As-Sālikīn [vol. 3, p. 351] by Imām Ibn al-Qayyim.

- "The key to the call of the Messengers, the essence of their Message, is knowing Allāh through His Names and Attributes and Deeds, because this is the foundation on which the rest of the Message, from beginning to end, is built." Sawā'iq al-Mursalah ala al-Jahamīyyah wal-Muattilah by Ibn al-Qayyim [1/150-151]

- "The more a person learns about the Names and Attributes of Allāh, the more his faith increases and the stronger his conviction becomes." Tawdīh wal-Bayān li Shajarat al-Īmān by Shaykh Abdur Rahmān As-Sa'di [p. 41].

Action plan:
- Supplicate to Allāh with His Names: "And to Allāh belong the best names, so invoke Him by them." Sūrah al-A’rāf: 180.
- We should praise Allāh with all of His Names.
- Contemplate on the meanings of the Names of Allāh.
- Strive to memorise the Names of Allāh.
