Who is the bankrupt?

by ams1819 @ 2008-07-04 – 19:39:12

Do you know who is the bankrupt?

The Prophet (peace be upon him) once asked his Companions (May Allah be pleased with them),
"Do you know who is the bankrupt?"

The Companions said, "A bankrupt is the one who has neither dirham (money) nor wealth."

The Prophet(peace be upon him) said: The bankrupt of my Ummah (Nation) is he who would come on the Day of Judgment with lotsof prayers, fasts and charities ;

but who had offended a person....

Slandered another....

Wrongfully taken the wealth of that person.....

Shed another's blood.....

and has beaten still another......

So Allah will take rewards of his good deeds & give them to those who had been victimized by him;

If all of his good deeds were finished before their dues were paid....
Their sins will be taken and imposed on him....

...and consequently, he will be thrown into the fire-pit! Narrated by(Muslim)

Save your good deeds.....

For No Visa Card will be accepted.....

when the moment of truth arrives.....

Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: "Three (things) follow a dead person: Members of his family, his property and his deeds. Two of them return; and one remains with him. The people and his wealth return; his deeds remain with him". [Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

I heard Ibn Az-Zubair saying that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: "If the son of Adam were given a valley full of gold, he would love (or hope) to have a second one; and if he were given the second one, he would love (or hope) to have a third, for nothing fills the belly of Adam's son except dust (ie. one is buried in one's grave!). And Allah forgives he who repents to Him"

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 8.446, Narrated by Sahl bin Sad

--------------------------------------------

Saya mendengar Ibn Az-Zubair mengatakan bahwa Utusan Allah (perdamaian di atasnya) mengatakan: "Jika anak lelaki Adam diberi lembah penuh emas, dia akan mencintai (atau harapan) untuk mempunyai yang kedua sesuatu; Dan jika dia diberi yang satu ini, dia akan mencintai (atau harapan) untuk mempunyai ketiga, Tanpa pamrih mengisi perut anak lelaki Adam kecuali debu (i.e Sesuatu dikubur di yang gawat). Dan Allah memaafkan dia yang bertobat kepada Dia"

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 8,446, yang diceritakan oleh Sahl kotak Sedih

-------------------------------------

سمعت ابن الزبير على المنبر بمكة في خطبته يقول : يا أيها الناس ، إن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم كان يقول : ( لو أن ابن آدم أعطي واديا ملأى من ذهب أحب إليه ثانيا ، ولو أعطي ثانيا أحب إليه ثالثا ، ولا يسد جوف ابن آدم إلا التراب ، ويتوب الله على من تاب ) .

Bounties of Allah

by ams1819 @ 2008-03-07 – 01:23:35

حَدَّثَنَا الْمَكِّىُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ - هُوَ ابْنُ أَبِى هِنْدٍ -

عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ - رضى الله عنهما - قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِىُّ - صلى الله عليه
وسلم - « نِعْمَتَانِ مَغْبُونٌ فِيهِمَا كَثِيرٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ ، الصِّحَّةُ وَالْفَرَاغُ

Abdullah bin Abbas (Radiallau Anhu) reports that Rasulullah said (
صلى الله عليه وسلم) "There are two bounties of Allah where in most
people are deceived, health and free time".

COMMENTARY :

The value of health is only realized when one falls ill.

Take for example, relieving oneself. If a person is unable to use
the bathroom for a day, what happens to this person? His whole life
comes to an immediate halt and he looks for ways to relieve him.
This one bounty of Allah we enjoy day in and day out but we do not
even regard it to be a bounty.

Let us appreciate the bounty of health and use our health in the
obedience of Allah Ta'ala.

Free time is another bounty of Allah Ta'ala. Consider those people
who have to tirelessly work many shifts just to make ends meet. They
also cherish free time but are forced just to support their
families. Therefore appreciate the free time before you are forced
to use it in other ways. A sign of appreciation is to dedicate some
of the free time for the Ibaadah and service of Allah. The enjoyment
one will earn by doing so can never be explained.

Allah states in a Hadith Qudsi "O! Son of Adam free yourself for my
obedience and I will make you independent and remove your poverty,
and if you will not do so, I will tire you with work and never
remove your want and poverty".

Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)

"The slave continues to lie and a black spot grows in his heart until all his heart becomes black. Then he is written, in Allah's Sight, among the liars"

إن الصدق يهدي إلى البر ، وإن البر يهدي إلى الجنة ، وإن الرجل ليصدق حتى يكون صديقا ، وإن الكذب يهدي إلى الفجور ، وإن الفجور يهدي إلى النار ، وإن الرجل ليكذب ، حتى يكتب عند الله كذابا .

The pious woman - الزوجة الصالحة

by ams1819 @ 2007-11-20 – 22:58:56

Prophet (peace be upon him) said: ‘The whole world is a provision, and the best object of benefit of the world is the pious woman.’

Sahih Muslim Hadith 3465, Narrated by Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-'As

If one trusts, obeys, and follows the guidance and commands of Allah and His Messenger (peace be upon him), one can be assured of never ever being misled; but if one believes, obeys and follows any other guidance, other than that of Allah and His Messenger (peace be upon him), one can be assured of being led astray.

A Cocoon Story

by ams1819 @ 2007-11-01 – 19:40:16

[taken from: StoryBin & adapted to Islam]

Cocoon

A man found a cocoon of a butterfly. One day a small opening appeared. He sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could, and it could go no further.

So the man decided to help the butterfly. He took a pair of scissors and snipped off the remaining bit of the cocoon.

The butterfly then emerged easily. But it had a swollen body and small, shriveled wings.

The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that, at any moment, the wings would enlarge and expand to be able to support the body, which would contract in time.

Neither happened! gIn fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body and shriveled wings. It never was able to fly.

What the man, in his kindness and haste, did not understand was that the restricting cocoon and the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening were Allah's way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.

Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our lives. If Allah allowed us to go through our lives without any obstacles, it would cripple us.

We would not be as strong as what we could have been. We could never "fly"!

I asked for Strength.... .....And Allah gave me Difficulties to make me strong.
I asked for Wisdom...... ...And Allah gave me Problems to solve.
I asked for Prosperity.. .......And Allah gave me Brain and Brawn to work.
I asked for Courage..... ....And Allah gave me Danger to overcome.
I asked for Love........ .And Allah gave me Troubled people to help.
I asked for Favors...... ...And Allah gave me Opportunities.
I received nothing I wanted ........I received everything I needed!
