FOR SISTERS

Sister trust me you need to know this.

MY DEAR SISTERS

abuousaydofficial1 Comment

Never let anyone hold you down…

We hear alot about good sisters who are married to bad men, so let me remind you of someone

Asiya(as) was married to Firaawn the biggest enemy of Allah, she endured so much, but she was firm on her belief in Allah(swt), held onto the principles of Islam, even while being torchered for it, by the Man she called her husband

Because of this she was rewarded, named one of the best of women of paradise, her story mentioned forever in the Quran recited by billions of people over the generations, children forever will be taught about her and her struggles, her example is one for all Muslim men and women to follow,

My dear sister, the Men in your life should not affect you or be an excuse for you to sever your connection with Allah(swt),

“There is no obedience to creation in disobedience to the creator”

Allah(swt) comes first, make Allah your priority, you play the most important part in this Ummah, you are its university, it’s home, it’s teacher.

My dear sister, with all the corruption, fitnah, tribulation and turmoil in the world today we need you to stand up and be a Asiya for all the potential musa’s of today,

You might say where are the Men, that’s true, but in the story of Musa(as) no men are mentioned rather three women are, his Mother, his sister and that special woman that took him in.

Think about that, the Ummah needs you…

Note: there has been an edit due to a mistake, the name Asiyah was not mentioned by name in the Quran but rather in Hadith and Tafseer

THE PRAYER IS A PROOF

abuousaydofficial2 Comments

Anyone who examines the texts of the Qur’aan and Sunnah will see that they indicate that the one who neglects the prayer is guilty of Kufr Akbar (major kufr) which puts him beyond the pale of Islam.

“But if they repent [by rejecting Shirk (polytheism) and accept Islamic Monotheism], perform As-Salaat (Iqaamat-as-Salaat) and give Zakaat, then they are your brethren in religion.” [al-Tawbah 9:11]

The evidence derived from this aayah is that Allaah defined three things that the Mushrikeen have to do in order to eliminate the differences between them us: they should repent from shirk, they should perform prayer, and they should pay zakaah.

If they repent from shirk but they do not perform the prayer or pay zakaah, then they are not our brethren in faith;

if they perform the prayer but do not pay zakaah, then they are not our brethren in faith.

Brotherhood in religion cannot be effaced except when a person goes out of the religion completely; it cannot be effaced by fisq (immoral conduct) or lesser types of kufr.

And from the Sunnah,

It was narrated that Buraydah ibn al-Husayb (may Allaah be pleased with him) said:

“I heard the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) say: ‘The covenant that distinguishes between us and them is the prayer, and whoever neglects it has disbelieved (become a kaafir).’

So it is clear that the person who neglects the prayer with no excuse is a kaafir who is beyond the pale of Islam, on the basis of this evidence.

This is the correct view according to Imaam Ahmad, and it is one of the two opinions narrated from al-Shaafa’i, as was mentioned by Ibn Katheer in his tafseer of the aayah (interpretation of the meaning):

“Then, there has succeeded them a posterity who have given up As-Salaat (the prayers) [i.e. made their Salaat (prayers) to be lost, either by not offering them or by not offering them perfectly or by not offering them in their proper fixed times] and have followed lusts” [Maryam 19:59]

So my dear brother and sister, do not leave off the PRAYER!

MARRIAGE ADVICE FOR SISTERS

abuousaydofficialLeave a comment

Abu Huraira (ra) reported: It was said to the Messenger of Allah, (saw), “Which wives are best?”

The Prophet said, “One who pleases him when he looks at her, obeys him when he requests her, and does not dispute him in herself and her wealth in a way he dislikes.” (al-Nasa‌’i‌ 3231)

Husbands expect different things in a marriage compared to a Wife, to a Husband his greatest expectations are obedience, respect and loyalty,

Obedience first to the shariah of Allah(swt), then obedience to the husband in his rights given by Allah(swt), disobedience to any of the above will result in the righteous husband loosing heart, there is nothing more beautiful than piety nothing more ugly than ingratitude

It was narrated that ‘Abd-Allah ibn ‘Abbas (ra) said: The Messenger of Allah (saw) said:

“I was shown Hell and I have never seen anything more terrifying than it. And I saw that the majority of its people are women.” They said, “Why, O Messenger of Allah?” He said, “Because of their ingratitude (kufr).” It was said, “Are they ungrateful to Allah?” He said, “They are ungrateful to their companions (husbands) and ungrateful for good treatment. If you are kind to one of them for a lifetime then she sees one (undesirable) thing in you, she will say, ‘I have never had anything good from you.’ (al-Bukhari, 1052).

Respect is dealing with the husband in a honourable way, every man wants to be the king of his home and treated like one, if this is not the case, then don’t expect to be treated like a Queen

Respect his decisions, support him, appreciate him, speak to him in a respectful way, be soft, treat him better than others in your life this will earn you his favour and respect too

Disrespect, harsh words, distaste, dissatisfaction and constant nagging will result in friction and ultimately divorce,

“For a woman who’s tongue is long with her husband, her days with him are very short” (Ibn Taymiyyah).

Loyalty is a given, loyalty to him, his secrets, his wealth, his highs and lows but most importantly your beauty and chastity,

We live in a society that is infatuated with how we look in public, today everything is on display, yet in Islam it is the opposite, your private life is far more important and that is the only place for adornment and beautification,

Your beauty is for your husband so beautify yourself for him alone,

Some woman today argue that they only wear make up outside the home because of low self-esteem or because they want to feel good,

Yet the majority of those who use this haram excuse seem only to do so in public while at home they do not, so who are they really trying to impress the world or husbands?

No real man wants the world looking or touching one of the most precious things in his life, so my sister why lower yourself to something less than precious.

Chastity is guarded by hayah (modesty), once that is broken and cracks start to begin this is a perfect time for Shaytaan to plant his seeds of haraam ideas and evil inspirations,

All the above and the encouragement to do them can be summed up in one Hadith,

Abu Huraira(ra) reported: The Messenger of Allah, (saw), said,

“If a woman prays her five prayers, fasts her month of Ramadan, guards her chastity, and obeys her husband, she will enter Paradise from any gate she wishes.” (Ibn H‌ibba‌n 4252)

So my sisters it is now up to you to do whatever you wish with the above information, no expensive marriage counselling needed

BATTLE OF HEARTS AND MINDS

May Allah (swt) have mercy on all those who have gone forth to give Victory to #ISLAM from the time of the Prophet (saw) till the day of judgement

Victory for this deen needs those committed to patience, knowing they will face hardship, trials, slander and animosity,

The battle is not limited to the battlefield, weapons are not limited to the sword

In our time there is a battle of hearts and minds, a battle of ideas that must be challenged and fought

Muslims must actively call out the Kuffar, Hypocrites, sell-outs and Innovators with a weapon we all carry with us everyday

Our tongues!!!

Everyone must make an effort to enjoin the good and forbid the evil, this is our characteristic if we leave it off we will forfeit the title ‘the best of nations’

May Allah (swt) aid and reward all those brothers and sisters pushing out the correct Dawah may Allah accept from us all. Ameen

SHAYTAAN IS YOUR ENEMY

abuousaydofficialLeave a comment

Although Allah (swt) clearly states

“….and follow not the footsteps of Shaytan (Satan). Verily, he is to you an open enemy.” (Q2:168)

How many people are still fooled

Shaytaans plans are long term, he plots big, one of these traps is even using Halal for Halal, how?

He will draw you from a deed that is large in reward to that which is lessor in reward

The wiswas….
“There is no good in Muslim countries, don’t migrate in Allahs way, stay in the west and give Dawah….”

Slowly he attempts to attract you to a good with the hope of taking your future generations…..

The wiswas….
“Niqab is scaring the people, how will you give dawah?”

The sister takes off the Niqab to not ‘scare off potential Muslims” the hope here, she will later remove the Hijab….

And his favourite,

The wiswas….
“Your a better Muslim without her/him, look how much you take care of your kids alone, get divorced”

A year passes, no authority figure in the home, no university for the children

The family breaks, breaks the community, breaks the Ummah

All because of following the footsteps of Shaytaan, even though Shaytaan seems far out of sight

Crying is not a sign of truthfulness

abuousaydofficialLeave a comment

When the brothers of Yusuf (as) threw him in the well they went back to their father crying

“And they came to their father at night, weeping”(12:16)

Even though they had done an evil, they covered that evil with a good story, lied, cried and pronounced innocent, not everyone that cries is telling the truth

It is from the justice of al-islam that both sides to any story are heard, a person would be unfair to hear one side of a claim and not the other, this was a tough lesson taught even to the Prophet Dawoud (as)

The summary of Dawouds (as) story is he is presented with 2 men who enter his home uninvited, one presents his side of the case, Dawoud rules on it without hearing the other side,

“(Dawoud) said, “He has certainly wronged you in demanding your ewe [in addition] to his ewes. And indeed, many associates oppress one another, except for those who believe and do righteous deeds – and few are they.” (38:24)

the 2 men disappear, Dawoud realised this was a test

“And Daud became certain that We had tried him, and he asked forgiveness of his Lord and fell down bowing [in prostration] and turned in repentance [to Allah]. So We forgave him that; and indeed, for him is nearness to Us and a good place of return” (38:25)

The lesson for us is, don’t pass judgement with out hearing both sides of a story, in case you unjustly give a verdict that you may regret later

Umm Salama, the wife of Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ), reported that Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) heard the clamour of contenders at the door of his apartment. He went to them, and said:

“I am a human being and the claimants bring to me (the dispute) and perhaps some of them are more eloquent than the others. I judge him to be on the right, and thus decide in his favcur. So he whom I, by my judgment, (give the undue share) out of the right of a Muslim,. I give him a portion of Fire; he may burden himself with it or abandon it” (muslim)

ADVICE // SISTERS & RUQYAH

abuousaydofficialLeave a comment

SISTERS and MALE Raqis (except for those Allah(swt) has Mercy on) do not mix!

SISTERS if you need Ruqyah seek a reputable sister not a fake Raqi who has other intentions, jinn out from here haram in from there

If there is no sisters doing Ruqyah and you have to go to a “shaykh” no matter how long his beard is

DO NOT GO ALONE!
take your mahram with you!

If the raqi is telling you come alone he might need ruqyah himself and you should keep your distance!

Its sad that I write this but far to many sisters are falling prey to these weak hermits using the weakness of the sick to take advantage for a dunya gain

I will share the worse story I have ever heard in order to drive the seriousness home

I was sitting in with a shaykh who was asked to do ruayah to a sister, the shaykh recited Quran without touching the sister, then the shaykh informed her that she has no jinn possession rather it was psychological issues,

(Now the bombshell)

“She says she was getting ruayah done differently, she explains the man doing ruqyah asked her to sit in a chair for hours till she got tired, at this stage me and the shaykh are like ok whats so weird about that sometimes ruayah takes long, then she said “but why did I need to be naked”

Yes my dear brothers and sisters there is evil people out there ready to take advantage of every situation

may Allah protect us all and destroy the hands of these weak sick evil people who do such acts. Ameen

Please for the sake of Allah take the above advice and let others know!
