السابقون في الدنيا السابقون في الا خرة The people who were first and foremost to please Allah in this world, who made it a mission in their life that when they look back at their life they can say my life was a service to Islam,tempt to make Allah happy, to serve His deen, thats what my life amounts to. Those were the people who were first and the foremost in this world and Allah says they will be the first and foremost in the next world. Two sides of the life this life and the next life. Ustadh Nouman Ali khan

When Allah says 'spend' and He doesn't mention anything after that, like spend money, its on open ended statement. It means spend whatever He has provided you with. If He has given you time, spend that time for His sake. Do things which will please Him in that time. If He has given you knowledge, use that knowledge for His sake. If He has given you intellect, use that intellect in His way. If He has blessed you with children, make sure you raise them in a way pleasing to Him, in service of His deen. If He as given you access to social networks make sure you don't use them in a way not pleasing to Him, use them to earn good deeds, to remind yourself and His slaves. Whatever He has given us,

In the time we live in, if we talk about others it is considered so called update. Like if you don't talk about others you don't know how to live, you are so outdated, you don't know how to tackle with problems of life if you don't backbite others, you don't have full information about what's happening in someone's life. But Allah, He talked about this in Quran as a quality of a woman. The woman who doesn't know about others life, who doesn't talk about others she is completely unaware of these things Allah described her as a غافل. How beautiful is this. The one who is like this in this so called modern world is considered backwards or too simple to understand the world and for Allah it i

'My prayer, my offering, my life and my death are for Allah, the Lord of all the worlds.' Quran 6:162 Ever wondered why Allah mentioned Salah (prayer, namaz) before He mentioned life and death? This is how important Salah is in our Deen and this is how important it should be in our lives. We try to adjust our Salah according to our daily schedule while we should be adjusting our daily routine according to our Salah. We never go for shopping or grocery when it's our office time but we surely skip our Salah just because of shopping. Why? Just because we can see our boss and we fear him what about The Master of the universe? Where is our fear of Him? We fear that we may lose our job if

Once there was a girl in a shop with her mother, the girl was wearing abaya(jilbab) and head scarf. Her mother asked the shop keeper to show a dress that the mother liked for girl but the shop keeper said 'no this is not for her this dress is see through' It reminded me of this Aayah how Allah says that they may be recognized. How beautiful is that she was recognized by her modesty, by the dress code chosen by Allah for her.

'on that Day every person will flee from their own siblings,' 'and ˹even˺ their mother and father' 'and ˹even˺ their spouse and children.' 'For then everyone will have enough concern of their own' Quran 80: 34-37 How we spend our whole lives thinking about what people will say. What will they say if i wear hijab, what will they say if i grow a beard, what will they say if i stick to the Qur'an and Sunnah. What will people say???

'And your effort has been appreciated ' Quran 76:22 '˹fully˺ pleased with their striving' Quran 88:9 'And that his effort is going to be seen ' Quran 53:40 Its so beautiful that over and over and over again in the Qur'an Allah reminds us that the only thing that matters to Allah is our STRUGGLE and our EFFORT. Allah rewards effort not results. People look at our results our achievements but Allah appreciates our efforts. All we have to do is try, try to obey Him, try to be a good slave of Allah, try our best to get closer to Him. Keep trying and He will reward our struggles as He is the only one who has the best reward with Him..
