: يا طالب العلم

O student of knowledge:

إن رأيت نفسك لا تتم وردك من القرآن

If you see that you do not finish your Wird (daily amount) from the Qur'an,

ولا تكمل قراءة كتابك

nor complete reading your book,

ولا تستمر في حضور درسك

nor continue attending your dars (lesson),

: فاعلم أنك بحاجة إلى

know that you are in need of:

١- تصحيح النية

1- Rectifying your intention

النظر في المشغلات

2- Looking into your distractions

ترتيب الأولويات

3- Sorting your priorities

العمر يمضي، والساعات تنقضي، وأجلك ينقص، فاحرص

في ذلك كله على زيادة عملك

Life is passing by, time is running out, and your lifespan is decreasing, and so, be diligent in all of that upon increasing your [good] deeds.

To every girl
who is secretly involved in an illicit relationship with a young man and feels unable to end it… Read my words and don’t ignore them. You may feel sadness, depression, and distress every time you even think about ending this relationship. My sister, read the words of Allah Almighty: ‘Say, nothing will happen to us except what Allah has decreed for us.’ Trust and be certain that this young man will not marry you except by Allah’s will. So why would you displease Allah, the Almighty, in a matter that is already in His hands?!

Do not deceive yourself by saying that he is a respectable, moral young man who is serious, not playing games, and that his words are sincere. If he were truly like that, he would have entered the house through its door (meaning: approached your family for marriage), and that is the least of faith.

I know you might say it is difficult to leave him and that you will not do it. But, dear sister, as Al-Hasan Al-Basri said: ‘By Allah, you will not attain what you love except by leaving what you desire, and you will not achieve what you hope for except by being patient with what you dislike. What is with Allah cannot be obtained except through obedience to Him.’

Finally, our noble Messenger, may the peace and blessings of my Lord be upon him, said: ‘Whoever leaves something for the sake of Allah, Allah will compensate them with something better.’ May Allah guide all Muslim men and women, and believing men and women.**

Two Things That Lead Most To Either Hellfire Or Paradise

‎عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه قال : قال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم : تقدرون ما أكثر مَا يُدْخلُ النَّارَ ؟ قالوا : الله ُورسُولهُ أَعلمُ . قال : الأجَوفَان : الفَرجُ والفَمُ ، وما أكثر ما يدخل الجنة ؟ تقوى الله وحسن الخلق

From Abū Hurayrah Raḍi-Allāhu ‘Anhu who said: The Prophet Ṣallallāhu-‘Alaihi Wa Sallam said: “Do you know what is that makes most people enter Hellfire??!!”

They (the Companions) replied: “Allāh and His Messenger know best.”

He Ṣallallāhu-'Alaihi Wa Sallam said: “The two empty ones: the GENITALS and the MOUTH and do you know what is that makes most people enter Paradise??, it is TAQWĀ OF ALLĀH and GOOD CHARACTER.”

‎● [الأدب المفرد ٢٨٩ ، حسنه الألباني]

Hudhayfah b. Qatadah رحمه الله said:

“If you obey Allāh in private, He ﷻ Will improve your heart, whether you wish for it or not!”

● {Sifat as-Safwah (v. 4 p. 270)}

Every person has to experience 8 things no matter who they are.

Happiness and Sadness,
Meeting and Seperation,
Difficulty and Ease,
Illness and wellbeing.

So don’t be shocked and surprised when you go from happiness to sadness, and from wellbeing to illness, etc.

Allaah سبحانه و تعالى says,

‎وَلَنَبلُوَنَّكُم بِشَيءٍ مِنَ الخَوفِ وَالجوعِ وَنَقصٍ مِنَ الأَموالِ وَالأَنفُسِ وَالثَّمَراتِ وَبَشِّرِ الصّابِرين

And We will surely test you with something of fear and hunger and a loss of wealth and lives and fruits, but give good tidings to the patient
(Surat Al-Baqarah: 155)
