Paradise is for us to dwell in....it is a promise from our Generous Allah




I swear by whom my soul is in his hand, you will not enter Paradise until you believe, and you will not believe until you love each other. Do you want me to guide you to something which if you practice, you will love each other? Spread greeting with peace among of you." (Bukhari)

O My Generous Allah, will You grant our heart the love for salam?

When the dwellers of Paradise enter Paradise, an announcer will call: (you have a promise from Allah that) you will live therein and you will never die; you will stay healthy therein and you will never fall ill; you will stay young and you will never become old; you will be under a constant bliss and you will never feel miserable. (Muslim)

the secret behind knowledge


Aboo Nu`aim reports some sayings of Mu`aadh himself about the excellence of knowledge, among which we find the following:



“Knowledge is a comforting friend in times of loneliness, it is the best companion during travels, and it is the inner friend who speaks to you in your privacy. Knowledge is the discerning proof of what is right and what is wrong, and it is the positive force that will help you surmount the trials of comfort, as well as those of hardships. Knowledge is your most powerful sword against your enemy, and finally, it is your most dignifying raiment in the company of your close companions.”

“Through knowledge, Allah, blessed be His Name, raises some people in rank, and He makes them leaders in righteousness and models in morality. The vestige of their faith is avidly sought, their deeds are emulated perceptively, and people will seek and sanction their opinions solicitously and unequivocally. The heavenly angels seek their company and anoint them with their wings, every fresh or withered life they pass by implore Almighty Allah to forgive them their sins, even the fish in the oceans, the beasts of the lands and every bird of prey and migratory bird pray and solicit the mercy of Almighty Allah on their behalf. This is because knowledge revives the dead hearts and drives them out of darkness into light, and because knowledge is the light of the inner eyes that cures one’s blindness and restores his inner sight.”

What is associating something with Almigthy Allah?




The truth is to negate everything and to worship Allah alone

All these we are already aware of. isnt it?

But the negation of the self????

We often take ourselves for something, the titles, etc...

The moment you feel you are something in front of Allah, and that you can do things by yourself without the assistance of Allah, then Allah leaves you alone and see what you really can do...

You are left alone with your ego...you struggle and struggle but you cannot succeed...

Remember: we are the servants of Allah [Abd-Allah]. We are nothing...really nothing.

We depend upon Allah for everything. Please reflect upon it. dont let your ego tell you this and that. Reflect. You have been given the most powerful gift: the faculty of reason. Use it to understand the secrets of this world

You are nothing in front of Allah. So be humble...success lies in this humility insha Allah



“Obey God, obey the Prophet (s) and obey those charged with authority over you.” (4:59)

“Hold tight to the rope of God and do not separate.” (3:103)

“O ye who believe, fear God
and keep the company with those who are truthful.” (9:119)


O mankind, fear your Lord, who created you from one soul and created from it its mate and dispersed from both of them many men and women 4:1


“O ye who believe, be conscious of God and keep the company with those who are truthful.” (9:119)



Witnessing the truth in the path of islam masha Allah




The believer starts his journey in the path of islam as a child who starts growing.

He has fears, hopes and love for Allah but he needs someone to guide him to Allah. Allah has sent the prophet [ saw] as a model of perfection for us...

Do we care? Do we love him so much that we try to imitate his conduct and the way he supplicates Allah?

To witness: shahada, shaheed, shahood

Take your time to meditate upon these words. Alhamdulillah, they are not only words but important key reflections...

We will start witnessing the truth by the time your dhikr [remembrance] has taken its permanent place in your soul. Do it constantly and persistently. Maintain your dhikr everyday.

Soon, you will witness victory [al fath] over your nafs and your enemies [shaytan the accursed].

Then, you will feel bliss masha Allah

Remember: all muslims are brothers and sisters in islam. We should stay united. Be united and love each other because Allah appreciates brotherhood much....

I hope you try it dear brothers and sisters

I make dua for you that we all succeed insha Allah

Your sister in islam

The love of remembrance of God

Love of God is supreme, isn't it dear brothers and sisters? We all want to love God.We all want to seek His divine pleasure. We all want to be happy and to enter paradise. We all hope for paradise. Isn't it?

Well, the issue is: how to proceed? Many of us find it too hard to even start because they have gone so far ....

But let me tell you: every step you make in the right path will surely be recorded for you as a good action and God does not judge you as you judge one another. Every effort is a blessing for you. Every effort will gain rewards. So trust God and let Him guide you. Talk to Him everyday and tell Him how you feel honestly....

Brothers and sisters, the solution is the remembrance of God...Never forget it. Never!!!

We call it dhikr:

In one of the verse of Qur'an, Allah has said to the believers that, "Behold! In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the alternation of night and day, there are indeed Signs for men of understanding-- men who remember Allah standing, sitting, and lying down on their sides." Al-al-Imran, 3:190-191.

God Almighty said: “Make remembrance of God as ye do of your fathers, or with more lively remembrance.”-Qur’an, 2:200.

“Make remembrance of thy Lord in thy soul, in supplication and fear, without thy word being audible, at morning and evening.” -Qur’an, 7:204.

Start your dhikr with a firm intention. Each time try to increase it as you grow stronger

You will soon witness the change within yourself and the strength you gain to face this hectic life insha Allah


May our Almighty Allah guide us towards the excellence of this life and the hereafter.


I did it myself...i hope you will insha Allah

Learn how to overcome the tricks of your fierest ennemy




When Allah created Adam, Ibliss, the jinn was present in the circle of the angels. When Allah ordered the angels as well as Ibliss to reverence Adam, they all accepted except the haughty Ibliss.

As a result of his objection and unsubmission, Allah rejected him.

The Glorious Qur'an explains this fact in chapter 2 verse 30-39

"Behold! thy lord said to the angels: "I will create a vicegerent on earth, " they said: "Wilt thou place therein one who will make mischief therein and shed blood?
- whilst we do celebrate thy praises and glorify thy holy [name]?"
He said: "I know what ye know not."

And He taught Adam the names of all things; then He palced them efore the angels, and said:

"Tell Me the names of these if ye are right."
They said: "Glory to thee: of knowledge we have none, save what thou hast taught us: in truth it is thou who art perfect in knowledge and wisdom."
He said: "O Adam! tell them their names! when he had told them, Allah said: "Did i not tell you that i know the secrets of heaven and earth, and i know what ye reveal and what ye conceal?"
And behold We said to the angels: "Bow down to Adam:" and they bowed down : not so Ibliss: he refused and was haughty: he was of those who reject faith......"

The whole section from verse 30-39 is vital for our success in this life and in the hereafter. we must understand the enmity between jinns and mankind from the very creation of man [our father Adam].

Ibliss has promised to trick us through his voice, waswasa [his satanic whisper].

Time is not ours...

Soon, we will end up in our tomb..

Let us, dear muslims and dear muslimahs submit our heart to the Quran
Let us learn this section in arabic by heart

I already did it!!! Will you?

Try it...Well You got it?

Congratulations!!!
