Grateful..

We all have our little comforts we take for granted. Delicious food. Warm houses. Families who love and protect us. Clean clothes. Clean water. Good friends. Good health... subhanallah walhamdulillah..

Today let's make a dua for those who are less fortunate. May Allah bless them and make us grateful for everything we have.

There are blessings in making dua for someone in his absence. Abu al Darda reported that the Prophet (pbuh) said "There is no Muslim worshipper who prays for his brother (Muslim) in his absence, except that an angel says Amin (and to you be the same)" [Muslim and Abu Dawud]

We all have problems that only Allah can solve. 

The Prophet salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam said: Whoever wakes up at night and says:

La ilaha illa Allah, wahdahu la shareeka lahu, lahu almulku wa lahul hamdu wahuwa ala kulli shai’in kadeer. 

Al hamdu li Allah, wa subhana Allah wala ilaha illa Allah, wa Allahu Akbar wa lahawla wa la quata illa billah, 

Then he said: O’ Allah forgive me or he supplicates, Allah will answer his Duah. I have tried this myself and found it one of the best ways to get your Du’ah answered. Performing wudhu before going to bed would be a certain plus. You will probably need few weeks before you can program yourself to say this the moment you wake up.

-Sheikh Assim AlHakeem

اَللَّهُمَّ رَحْمَتَكَ أَرْجُو فَلاَ تَكِلْنِيْ إِلَى نَفْسِيْ طَرْفَةَ عَيْنٍ، وَأَصْلِحْ لِيْ شَأْنِيْ كُلَّهُ

لاَ إِلَـهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ سُبْحَانَكَ إِنِّيْ كُنْتُ مِنَ الظَّالِمِيْنَ.
