I am a heart and lungs patient.The only ways is to transplant heart
and lungs and that too seems not possible due to the probabilty of
failure and availability.I am pleased with the decree of ALLAH after
understanding its reward and consequencesof expiation of sins in the
hereafter.I am reading Ibnkatheer (english darussalam edition) and
riyadusaaliheen (eng).I am looking forward to know any book that may
help me know authentic hadeeths that has small deed great reward?
Because i have hardly 4-5 hours time to do ibaadah with less effort.I
would look forward to hadees like praying duha prayer after sunrise
which has umrah reward according to hadeeths that is authenticated as
hasan or saying "subhanallahi wabihamdihi subahanallahil azeem" which
is heavy in the scales.Similar to that because i cannot afford toput
more effort and with less time remaining in mylife.If you cannot find
book atleast can u send me atleast 40 authentic hadeeths to my email.
Whenever i would think i am not able to pray"Qiyamillayl" i would
praybefore sleeping.Is that ok but occasionally only? Sorry for
shooting out thethird question IS there any reward in Aqira for
particularly My disease or similar from birth to end.If so please
mention it with authenticity to have more contentment in heart ?
Praise be to Allah.
First:
We ask Allah to both reward you as well as grant you well-being and to
grant you patience in the face of what you havebeen tested with. We
commend you on your great ambition in search of deeds which will earn
you extra rewards and draw you closer to Allah, the Exalted, even
while you are suffering from this sickness. Your illness has not
prevented you from doing that which you can from acts of obedience and
worship which have great rewardsand weigh heavily on the balance. This
is an important message we direct towards all those who are ill; that
they should have such great ambition and not allow their sicknesses to
prevent them from competing with the healthy in earning rewards.
Second:
With regard to the rewardfor what Allah, may He be exalted, has tested
you with, we say: The scholarshave differed as to whether the reward
is granted merely due to thefact that Allah, may He be exalted, has
tested His Muslim slave with sickness and calamity or isit a condition
that it must be accompanied with patience and hope for reward. To
explain that: calamities are an expiation for the afflicted as long as
they do not show anger or tear their garments or lament, and they are
a means of elevating one's status anda source of rewards if the
afflicted is patient and anticipates rewards (from Allah).
Al-Hafith ibn Hajar (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "The authentic
reports are clear that rewards are established simply by a calamity
occurring; as for patience and acceptance, then this is something
extra for which one may be rewarded beyond the reward of the calamity.
Al-Qarafi said: "Calamities are an expiation with certainty whether
accompanied by patience or not. However, if accompanied by acceptance
the expiation is greater, otherwise it will be less." That's what he
said and the explanation is: A calamity is an expiation for a sin
similar to it and through acceptance one is rewarded for it. If the
afflicted has no sins, he will be compensated withrewards equal to
it." End quote from Fath al-Bari (10:105).
Sh. Muhammad ibn Salih al-'Otheimin (may Allah have mercy on him)
said: "Let the one afflicted withany calamity know that these
calamities are an expiation for sins they committed; for no worry or
anxiety or harm befalls a believer except that Allah expiates them
(sins) through them (hardships),even a thorn which pricks them.
Through patience and anticipation of reward one attains the level of
the saabireen (patient ones), that high level about which Allah, may
He be exalted, said (what means): "And We will surely test you with
something of fear and hunger and a loss of wealth and lives and
fruits, but give good tidings to the patient, Who, when disaster
strikes them, say, "Indeed we belong to Allah, and indeed to Him we
will return."" End quote.
This is the opinion favoured by the two sheikhs, Ibn Taimiyah andIbn
al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on them) and they mentioned shar'ee
(Legal Islamic) evidences for that. See the answer to question 150038
for more.
Third:
Know-dear questioner- that the time for qiyam al-layl (the voluntary
night prayers) begins from after 'Isha, and whether you pray in the
first part of the night, the middle part or the last part of it, it is
all part of qiyam al-layl and it was all done by the Prophet (may the
peace and blessings of Allah be uponhim). 'Aisha (may Allah be pleased
with her) said: "Inevery portion of the nightdid the Messenger of
Allah(may the peace and blessings of Allah be uponhim) do the witr
(prayer)…:->
