Abu Qatadah bin Rabi r.a says, "He heard the Prophet s.a.w saying, Allah has said, "O, Muhammad! I have ordained five time daily Solat for thy followers. I have made a covenant with Myself that whosoever is regular in performing his solat at its fixed hour, he shall be admitted into the Paradise. Those of thy followers who do not guard their solat, are not included in this covenant."In another

Ghabah was a small village at four or five miles from Madinah. The Prophet’s camels were sent to that place for grazing. Abdul Rahman Fazari, with the help of a few disbelievers, killed the person looking after the camels and took them away. The bandits were riding theirs horses and all of them were armed. Salmah bin Akwah r.a was going on foot in the morning with his bow and arrows, when he

First Hadith Abu Hurairah r.a, narrates that once the Prophet s.a.w asked his companions, “Do you believe that dirt can remain on a person bathing five times a day in a brook running in front of his door?” “No!” replied the companions, “No dirt can remain on his body.” The Prophet s.a.w remarked: “So, exactly similar is the effect of solat offered five times a day. With the Grace of Allah, it

The kalimah Thoiyiebah means that nobody is worthy of worship except Allah. The words “ma min ilahi ghoi ruh” and “La ila ha illa huwa” and “La nak budu illallah” also carry the same meaning. Similarly “La nak budu illa eeyah” (We do not worship anybody other than Allah) and “Ilma huwa ilahuuwahid” (He is the only one worthy of worship) also mean the same thing. There are others similar ayat,

Umar r.a, of whom all the Muslims are justly proud and the disbelievers still dread, was most adamant in opposing the Prophet s.a.w and very prominent in persecuting the Muslims before he embraced to Islam. One day, the Quraysh in meeting called for somebody to volunteer himself for the assassination of the Prophet s.a.w. Umar offered himself for this job, at which everybody exclaimed:“Surely,

The second point in this hadith is “whenever a slave of Mine remember Me, I am with him.” In another hadith, it is stated “So long as one’s lips move in My remembrance I remain with him.” i.e. Almighty Allah bestows His special care and mercy on him during all this time.The third point is that Almighty Allah mentions him with favour to the angle, which signifies the value of zikir.

In 26 A.H (After Hijrah), Usman r.a, the then Khalifah, appointed Abdullah bin Abu Sarah r.a, as a governor of Egypt in place of Amar bin Aus r.a. Abdullah r.a with 20,000 Muhajidin, advanced to meet the Roman Army numbering 200,000. It was very fierce battle. The Roman commander, Jarjir made a proclamation saying:"The person who kill Abdullah will get my dauther's hand in marriage and also

Ummu Salmah r.a. (one of Rasullullah s.a.w wife) was once asked by someone as to how Rasullullah s.a.w used to recite Quran. She said, “In a way that all vowel sounds were clear and the pronunciation of each letter was distinct.” It is desirable to recite the Quran with propriety even if one may not understand the meaning. Ibnu Abbas r.a. said that he preferred to recite with propriety, short

From Abu Dzar r.a narrates that once the Holy Prophet s.a.w came out of his house. It was autumn and the leaves were falling off the trees. He caught hold of a branch of a tree and its leaves began to drop in a large number. At this he remarked, “O, Abu Dzar! When a Muslim offers his Solat to please Allah, his sins are shed away from him just as these leaves are falling off this tree.”In autumn,

Abu Dzar Ghifari r.a is very famous among the Sahabah (Prophet’s companion) for his piety and knowledge. Ali r.a used to say:“Abu Dzar is the custodian of such knowledge as other people are incapable of acquiring.”When he first got news of the Prophet’s mission, he deputed his brother to go to Mecca and make investigations regarding ‘the person’ who claimed to be the recipient of Divine

From Abdullah ibni Amar r.a. reports that Rasullullah s.a.w said; “On the Day of Judgment, it will be said to the MAN devoted to QURAN, go on reciting the Quran and continue ascending the storeys of Jannah (Paradise) and recite in the slow manner you had reading in worldly life; your final abode will be when you reach at the time of the last ayat of your recitation.”“The Man of Quran” apparently

Bilal r.a (Rodiallahu anhu) is a one of the best know of the galaxy of Sahabah as Moazzin of the Prophet's Mosque. He was an Abyssinian slave of a disbeliever in Mecca. His conversion to Islam was, naturally, not liked by his master and he was, therefore, persecuted mercilessly. Ummayah bin Khalaf, who was the worst enemy of Islam, would make him lie down on the burning sand at mid-day and would

It is this special understanding that was implied in the reply of Ali (Karramullahu Wajhu – May Allah be kind to him) when he was asked by the people if he had received from Rasullulah s.a.w any special knowledge or instructions which were not received by others. Ali r.a said, “ I swear by Him Who made the Paradise and created life that I possess nothing special, except the clear understanding

Their Jamaat (group) was called the Jamaat of Qura and consisted mostly of Ansar.The Prophet Muhammad s.a.w love them very much, for they engaged themselves in zikr and recitation of the Quran during the night and attended upon the Prophet s.a.w and his family during the day
