QVP - 2:146 ...But Verily, A Party Of Them Conceal The Truth While They Know It (i.e., The Qualities

📖QVP - 2:146 ...But verily, a party of them conceal the truth while they know it ـ (i.e., the qualities of Muhammadﷺ which are written in the Tawrah and the Injil). Ⓜeaning: Allaahﷻ states that the scholars of the People of the Scripture know the truth of what Allah's Messengerﷺ was sent with, just as one of them knows his own child, which is a parable that the Arabs use to describe what is very apparent. Similarly, in a Hadith, Allaah's Messengerﷺ said to a man who had a youngster with him: Is this your son? He said, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah! I testify to this fact.'' Allaah's Messengerﷺ said: Well, you would not transgress against him nor would he transgress against you. According to Al-Qurtubi رحمه الله, it was narrated that Umar رضي الله عنه said to Abdullah bin Salam (an Israelite scholar who became a Muslim), "Do you recognize Muhammadﷺ as you recognize your own son?'' He replied, "Yes, and even more. The Honest One descended from heaven on the Honest One on the earth with his (i.e., Muhammad'sﷺ) description and I recognized him, although I do not know anything about his mother's story.'' Allaahﷻ states next that although they had knowledge and certainty in the Prophetﷺ, they still conceal the truth. The Ayah indicates that they hide the truth from the people, about the Prophetﷺ, that they find in their Books, while they know it. 📚Tafseer Ibn Katheer

POP🆙 - The New Hijri Year We are in the new Hijri year. It is not from the Sunnah to celebrate it or to congratulate one another on its advent. For the Muslims, the passage of years does not constitute a real cause of happiness; rather, what counts is the amount of time spent in obedience to Allaahﷻ during these years. The years that have passed will be considered as successful if they were spent in obedience to Allaahﷻ, and miserable if they were spent in disobedience of Allaahﷻ. Therefore, the most evil person is he who has lived a long life and has committed evil deeds throughout. It is a must that we receive our days, months and years while in obedience to Allaahﷻ. We must bring ourselves to account, redeem ourselves from our bad deeds and duly perform our responsibilities towards our wives, children and relatives. The advent of every new year is marked by many Muslims with sincere resolutions and plans to improve and become closer to their Lord, but the days and hours slip away while the people’s conditions remain the same, the inevitable result of such failures will be loss and disgrace in this world and the next. Therefore, we must invest our time in obedience to Allaahﷻ and make sure that our spiritual condition is improving from year to year; for the more time runs away from us, the closer we are drawing to our graves. The improvements in our worldly lives do us absolutely no good if our spiritual lives are not improving at the same time. No one can attain honor and dignity without submitting to the Lord of the Worlds. Safety, tranquility and welfare cannot be attained except by adopting the methodology of the Messengers of Allaahﷻ, may Allaahﷻ exalt their mention. Be very clear that if any of you see welfare and pleasure accompanied with sins and deviation, then this is definitely a mere respite that has been given by Allaahﷻ ahead of a total ruin. Thus, we must all stand firm in the obedience of Allaahﷻ in order to protect ourselves from His punishment. Allaahﷻ Says (what means): “...And turn to Allaahﷻ in repentance, all of you, O believers, that you might succeed.” 📖Quran 24: 31 ❓Shaykh Muhammad ibn Saalih al-‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) was asked: What is the ruling on congratulating people on the occasion of the Hijri new year, and how should one reply to a person who offers congratulations?  📌📌He replied:  If someone offers you congratulations, then respond to him, but do not initiate such greetings. This is the correct view concerning this matter. So if a person says to you, for example, “Happy New Year”, then you can say, “May Allaahﷻ make it a good and blessed year for you.” But you should not initiate such a greeting, because I do not know of any report that the salaf [early generations of Islam] congratulated one another on the occasion of the new year, rather the salaf did not regard the first of Muharram as the first day of the new year until the caliphate of ‘Umar ibn al-Khattaab رضي الله عنه.  Shaykh ‘Abd al-Kareem al-Khudayr said concerning offering congratulations on the occasion of the hijri new year:  "Praying for another Muslim in general terms, in phrases that are not meant as a kind of ritual  on special occasions such as Eid, is acceptable, especially if what is meant by this greeting is friendship and to show a friendly face to one’s fellow Muslim. Imaam Ahmad (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: “I do not initiate the greeting but if someone greets me I return the greeting, because responding to the greeting is obligatory. But being the first to offer congratulations is neither Sunnah nor forbidden." ---------------------------------------------- So we should not wrong ourselves during the Sacred Months. We should stay well within the limits defined by Allaahﷻ, fulfill all His obligations, shun all His prohibitions and fulfill the rights of the people.

America's most confusing day: #Father's day... 80% dont know whom to wish... 20% are scared someone will come and wish them... sad is the status of western world... it is they who initiated these father's day stuff...

POP🆙 - You will be with those whom you Love Below is the conversation between the Students of knowledge and his friend... Especially created to share with you as POP🆙 Abdullah: Assalamu alaikum Ahmad, how are you? Ahmad: Walaikumus salaam wa Rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu Bro. Mu'aaz... Yes I am good by the grace of Allaahﷻ Abdullah: Sorry bro., yesterday I was busy so unable to reply you... Tell me what's the reason that you WhatsApped me yesterday? Ahmad: Nothing special bro., just wanted to know about the one whose picture you kept as your DP. Abdullah: What...? Don't you know about him...? He is the Super Star in entire world of Cinema... No one in this world don't know about him and love him. It's his Birthday today, and we all in our college group decided to have his pic. as our DP to express his Love Ahmed: (patiently, after reading all his texts) Will this love benefit you in this World and Hereafter? Abdullah: What..? I didn't get you Bro. Ahmad, plz explain me clearly? Ahmad: Ok, let me explain you about it through one Hadith narrated by Anas Ibn Malik رضي الله عنه: A Bedouin asked our Prophetﷺ, "When will the Hour be established O Allah's Apostle?" Our Prophetﷺ asked, "What have you prepared for it?" He said, "I haven't prepared for it much of prayers or fast or alms, but I love Allaahﷻ and His Apostle." Our Prophetﷺ said, "You will be with those whom you love." 📚Bukhari Abdullah: Allaahu akbar Ahmad: Yes Bhai, The more important thing is our preparation for that Day. What good or bad deeds have you sent forth for that Day? Each person's Judgement begins as soon as they die, and their grave becomes either a pit of fire or a garden of Paradise. Therefore, the most relevant thing to worry about are our daily deeds, as we never know when we will die and our Judgement commence. The most sobering is that, you will be with the people you love on the Day of Judgement. If we love the Heroes of Islam, we will be with them and will follow them where they will go (Jannah). If we have love for the one who can't benefit us in this world, do you think he will benefit us on the Day of Judgement. Abdullah: (after a long gap) You are right Bro... We should peer into our heart to see who it is we really love. This will tell us where we will be on the Day of Judgement. Ahmad: Alhamdulillah... There you are Bro... May Allaah reward you best for your time Abdullah: Aameen... Bro? One doubt... How to know before doing anything, whether it is Islamic or Un-Islamic? Ahmad: Simple Bro., before doing anything, just ask yourself one question: By doing this, will Allaahﷻ be pleased with me? Abdullah: Maashaa Allaah Jazakallahu khairan Bro. Will do the same... Allaah Hafiz Bro., take care Ahmad: Wa Iyyaak, Baarakallaahu Feek Wassalaam

What I learned from this Aayah

🌻 Allaah تعالى said:

﴿عَبَسَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ * أَن جَاءَهُ الْأَعْمَىٰ﴾

{(The Prophet ﷺ) frowned and turned away, because there came to him the blind man}

👉 The prohibition to frown in the face of a blind person was revealed in this Aayah while he could not see! So how about frowning in the face of the one who can see?!

👉 Remember: ❝Your smiling in the face of your brother is CHARITY.❞
