LOSE WEIGHT with duas

many people have asked for duas for weight loss,so in sha Allah we
will try to post some articles on this topic. While there is no dua in
particular to lose weight,one can recite duas for good health for this
purpose because obesity in itself is a disease and leads to some
serious health issues.
Obesity is a medical condition in which excess body fat has
accumulated to the extent that it may have an adverse effect on
health, leading to reduced life expectancy and increased health
problems.Obesity increases the likelihood of various diseases,
particularly heart diseases, type 2 diabetes, certain types of cancer,
osteoarthritis,hormonal imbalances which can also lead to infertility,
high blood pressure etc.
So,if you are overweight or obese, TAKE ACTION NOW before its too late.
Over the next few days, in sha Allah we will try to post more
information about this including its causes, diet control, exercise
and some other tips.
Dua 1: O Allah, make me healthy in my body. O Allah, preserve for me
my hearing. O Allah, preserve for me my sight. There is none worthy of
worship but You.
اللّهُـمَّ عافِـني في بَدَنـي ، اللّهُـمَّ عافِـني في سَمْـعي ،
اللّهُـمَّ عافِـني في بَصَـري ، لا إلهَ إلاّ اللّه أَنْـتَ.
Allaahumma 'aafinee fee badanee, Allaahumma 'aafinee fee sam'ee,
Allaahumma 'aafinee fee basaree, laa 'ilaaha 'illaa 'Anta.
Abu Dawud 4/324, Ahmad 5/42, An-Nasa'i
Dua 2: ''O Allah! Remove the harm, O Lord of mankind! heal this
ailment and You are the One Who heals. There is no healing except
Yours,
[Cure]with a healing which does not leave any disease behind''
Allaahumma Az hibil ba'sa rabban-naasi ishfihi wa antash-shaafi laa
shifaa aa illaa shifaaooka shifaaoon la yughaadiru saqamaa
(Bukhaari ,Muslim narrated by Ayesha Radi Allahu anha)

Women site, - A woman is married for four reasons

Share

It was narrated on the authority of Abu Hurayrah, may Allaah be pleased with him, that the Prophet,sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam,said:“A woman is married for four )reasons(: her wealth, noble ancestry, beauty and religion. Choose the religious woman lest your hand is stuck to dust )because of destitution(.”]Al-Bukhaari and Muslim[
Noble ancestry results from the good deeds of a man and his forefathers. However, it is construed as wealth in aMarfoo‘ Hadeeth)a narration that is directly attributed to the Prophet,sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam, including his words, acts, or explicit approval, regardless of the condition of its chain of narrators(. It was narrated by At-Tirmithi who renders it asHasan)good( on the authority of Samurah, may Allaah be pleased with him:“Noble ancestry results from wealth, and honor from piety.”
However, wealth is not the intended meaning in this particularHadeeth)narration(, for it is mentioned separately along with it, and this indicates that the former meaning is intended.
Thesaying:“…lest your hand is stuck to dust )because of destitution(”is customary speech; thereby the Prophet,sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, did not intend a supplication.
Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen, may Allaah have mercy upon him, said, "A marriageable woman should have these two merits; I mean the woman who is characterized by both physical and spiritual beauty."
Physical beauty means the perfection of features, for the more the woman appears beautiful and articulate, the more the eye is comforted by looking at her, and the ear pays attention to her speech, causing the heart to open to her, the breast to expand for her, and the soul to find tranquility in her, in realization of the statement of Allaah The Almighty )which means(:}And of His signs is that He created for you from yourselves mates that you may find tranquility in them; and He placed between you affection and mercy.{]Quran 30:21[
On the other hand, spiritual beauty means the perfection of religion and moral character. The more the woman is religious and perfect in moral character, the lovelier she becomes, and the safer the expected outcome is )in case of marriage(. A religious woman always complies with the commands of Allaah The Almighty, guards her husband’s rights, honor, children and wealth, and helps him obey Allaah The Almighty whenever she reminds him, and whenever he slackens )in worship(, she motivates him, and whenever he grows angry, she pleases him.
Furthermore, a righteous woman always shows affection and respect for her husband, does not delay what he likes her to hasten to, nor hastens to what he does not like her to do. When the Prophet,sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, was asked about which woman is good, he said:“She who pleases her husband whenever he looks at her, obeys him whenever he orders her, and does not oppose him in herself and his property with what he dislikes.”]Ahmad and An-Nasaa’i[
The Prophet,sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, further said:“Marry an affectionate woman who gives birth to many children, for I will vie in glory with the prophets )or he said with the other nations( because of your number )on the Day of Judgment(.”]Abu Daawood and An-Nasaa’i[
If it were possible to have a woman who combines both external and internal beauty, that is the perfect combination that brings about happiness and felicity, by the help of Allaah The Almighty. ]Kitaab Az-Zawaaj[
TheHadeethindicates that what leads men to marry a woman is one of those four things, with religion being the last in their priorities. Thus, the Prophet,sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, commanded them not to turn from the religious woman once they find her.
Al-Qaadhi, may Allaah have mercy upon him, said,“It is the nature of men to have desire for women, and choose such of them as has one of those characteristics, although it is fitting for those with chivalry and religion to make religion the centre of their attention in what they get and leave, particularly in such permanent and serious matters )as marriage(.”]Tuhfat Al-Ahwathi[
TheHadeethalso indicates that to enjoy the company of religious people is preferable in all things, for the one who does so benefits from their good morals, blessings, and manners. Special emphasis is placed here on the wife, as she is more entitled to be given priority on the basis of her piety, for she is the person with whom he spends the most time at home, the mother of his children and the trustworthy curator of his property, house and honor.

Women site, - A Recipe for Marital Bliss

Share

Marital bliss is the precious pursuit of every family and an easily attainable goal for every one who is keen on it and pursues it. A happy family is the source of giving, security, peace of mind, and the way to success. Here we will present a useful recipe for marital bliss:
First, it is the custom that a man feels jealous over his wife. Sometimes, we hear about a woman who feels extremely jealous over her husband from his mother, sisters and many other matters in which it is inappropriate to feel jealous over. Sister, there is a wise saying that states “If you want to be obeyed, then ask for what is affordable.”
Second, usually make your husband feel secure and confident and let him know that you wish that you live with him and your children forever. Also, try to keep away from grudges and do not belittle what he does or buys, or belittle him, his job or education. If you do so, you will destroy all the factors of love and respect between you.
Third, why do we master talking kindly with people outside our families but fail to do so with our husbands and children? We hope that a change in any aggressive way of speaking with the husband and children occurs, and that we speak calmly and logically in matters which are of benefit instead, and not repeat our words uselessly. One should avoid supplicating to Allaah against the husband and threatening him. These two ways result in nothing but further grudges and problems. Rather, one should substitute arguments with understanding and bad supplication with advice and guidance. If we try this approach we will certainly attain success, Allaah willing.
Fourth, no matter how long you have been married, do not neglect your appearance or the cleanliness of your home, and especially the bedroom. In this room the person is born, brought up, married and has children. So, you should not let it look old and worn out or be the worst place in your home that has a bad odor on the bed, curtains, carpets, and so on, due to lack of ventilation. So, you should ventilate your home especially the bedrooms and be keen on maintaining the cleanliness of your home. Do not regret the time and effort spent in looking after your husband and children. You should also not get angry with their repeated faults that you might think of as ingratitude. Rather, be like the date palm-trees whenever people throw stones at them, they throw the best fruit in return.
Fifth, you should conceal all your secrets. Believe me dear sister, your disclosing your marital secrets to your friends will not benefit you. On the contrary, it belittles you before them and they will not respect you. You should beware of arguing with your husband in front of the children. Avoid anger! We can get accustomed to tolerate things. I ask you also not to embarrass him or complain about him to his family.
Sixth, I beseech you to erase the phrase “Divorce me!” from your dictionary. Divorce would not give you comfort especially after having children. The husband is usually prudent and does not respond to the quarreling of the wife. However, the outcome of this dispute is sowing the seeds of worry and permanent fear in the children. Dear sister, divorce is the cause of the misery of the children, the delinquency of daughters, the misery of the wife and the deterioration of the marital life.
Seventh, do not ever lie to your husband and do not disobey him in any matter unless it is an act of disobedience to Allaah The Almighty. If you fear his severity, do not tell him about what happened while he is angry. Rather, when he is calm say to him “I have a confession to make but promise me not to be harsh on me in order that I may not hide anything from you in the future.” In this case, he would definitely be wise and the situation would be in your favor, Allaah willing. Hence, your children would be truthful and honest and would not fear to say the truth. You should remember that admitting the truth is a virtue.
Eighth, be keen on holding a family meeting bi-weekly that the children’s father would speak in the first one and you would speak in the second. You should instruct your children in the form of a kind demand. You should urge your children to be successful in the form of aspirations such as, “We hope to see you in such and such a state.” You should avoid the bad way of reproaching, threatening, and holding them in comparison with other children. These approaches make the children feel deficient. Accordingly, these approaches will result in negative results. You should always let your husband and children hear the wordAlhamdulillaah)praise be to Allaah(, praise be to Allaah that He made us one family and granted us His great favors. You should enumerate the favors of Allaah so that they would realize them and feel content and happy. You should remind them of Allaah The Almighty and the greatness of these favors that He bestowed upon you.

Women site, - The Nearest Way to a Man’s Heart

Share

Women are fed up with talk about the husband’s rights and would probably cry, “Are there no rights for the wives? Why do you always talk about the rights of the husband? Where are the rights of the wife?” In light of the noble verse )what means(:}The believing men and believing women are allies of one another{]Quran 9:71[, allow me, dear sisters, to advise you.
I hope that women will not consider my words as a speech about the husband’s rights. Rather, they should consider it as advice from a Muslim brother to his sister. A brother who knows that his married sister frequently hears about the rights of her husband, her negligence and her duties, and who knows that she has great rights over her husband which, if she does not take in this worldly life, will take in the Hereafter where she will be in dire need of them. He also knows that she is helpless, targeted and oppressed and that she suffers from the enemies’ evil schemes to destroy her and from her husband who does not understand anything about marriage except his rights and her duties, or he does not want to understand anything other than this own side. This husband does not see her favor, let alone her rights. The wife might feel great love for her husband and be strongly attached to him, yet he divorces her while he knows how she feels. She might absolutely hate him and tell him that but he forces her to stay with him while he knows how she feels. The wife might be satisfied with what little the husband might give, but he does not give her anything at all. There are many kinds of husbands who cause men to praise Allaah The Almighty day and night that they were not the wives of any of them. May Allaah help such wives and render them patient, for their patience cannot be achieved except by the Help of Allaah.
Our talk here is about a very specific point that has a great effect on the continuation of the marriage relationship as well as the family and the success of the wife. We shall talk about the case when the wife wants her husband, or at least is satisfied with him in times of agreement. Otherwise, for every session there is a different discussion.
At the outset, we say that when the woman accepted the man who proposed to her to be her husband, she did not want him to be a temporary husband. She was not ready to lose him for any reason. She did not want to live with him only to test his endurance and patience, and then surprise him with something that he may or may not be able to endure. She did not want to compete with him in achieving dignity and proving who is the most honorable. She did not want him to fulfill her dreams as conveyed by the corrupters on earth who call him a “playboy.” She did not want to imprison him as they describe marriage to be a “golden cage.” She did not want the honeymoon to last for only one month and then suffer from bitterness after the honeymoon as the enemies claim. She did not want, by any means, anything that could lead them to separate. Rather, when she accepted him, she wanted him to preserve her as much as he can, and she was absolutely ready to preserve him as much as she can, regardless of what he does, except what cannot be endured, and she will be rewarded by Allaah The Almighty. Doing this is equal to all the acts of worship that men have been favored with, like pilgrimage,Jihaad, congregational prayer, attending funerals and so on.
On the basis of this will and approach, we talk to our married sister out of our sympathy with her if she is divorced and out of happiness for her if she returns to her husband. Sisters, let us come to a word that is equitable between us. As for those whose will was not like what we mentioned above when she accepted marriage, our speech is not directed to her, and}For each ]religious following[ is a direction toward which it faces.{]Quran 2:148[.
As for the wife whose will is to preserve her husband and her home as much as she can, let her listen, obey and then enjoy the glad tidings of the worldly life and the Hereafter through listening to what the most knowledgeable and kindest man, the Prophet,sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, who knew best her interest, said. A man does not want his wife to be his friend and partner as the corrupters propagate. Rather, he wants her to be an obedient wife. The most successful woman to win the man’s heart and to live a long life with him is not the most beautiful one, as the non-married, lustful and inexperienced people think. She is not the richest one as the poor and greedy people think. Rather, she is the one who knows that wives with their husbands are exactly like the boon companions of the king. If the husband is not a king or like a king in his home and with his wife, what do you want him to be? Do you want him to be a servant, brother or a partner as they claim? If he is not a king or like a king in his home and with his wife, should he seek to be so with his bosses or friends? If the wife is not like the boon companion of the king with her husband, what should she be? Should she be with him like the queen, giving him from herself great things or should she be like the boon companion of the king with her sisters and friends?
The husband is the most entitled to her giving, the most beneficial to her, the closest one to her and the most entitled to have what he wants from her if she knows. Hence, the Prophet,sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said:“If I were to order someone to prostrate to another, I would order the wife to prostrate to her husband for his great right over her.”The wife gives her husband her self, body and honor, with satisfaction and pleasure, and does not give any of these to anyone else. Therefore, how could she consider what is far less than this to be so much for him? Many beautiful wives lost their homes and husbands, while they love each other because they failed to be like the king’s boon companions, and did not make them feel so in a nice and obvious way without any indication of boredom.
On the other hand, many young women who were not so beautiful or who were even quite unattractive managed to implant in her husband’s heart their love until they became their dearest beloved, and their husbands could not dispense with them. This is what some people call “the beauty of the spirit” and the details of this are very long; however, the general and main idea lies in the aforementioned description: “boon companions of the king.” This is most needed when there are signs of disagreement between the spouses. Hence, the clever and truthful wife should avoid arousing her husband’s anger and disagreeing with him. She should know that many men become angry and appeased, and that her husband is not that smart, wise, forbearing man; thus, she should calmly win him over, regardless of what she gives, and she will be greatly rewarded, Allaah willing. Then, she would make him feel ashamed of himself as Asmaa’ bint Khaarijah, may Allaah have mercy upon her, said to her daughter,“Be a maid to him ]meaning, her husband[ and, he will be a slave to you.”She should not disturb him with her frequent mistakes because he is more important to her than anything that they disagree about, and disagreement plants hatred in the hearts.
By the permission of Allaah The Almighty, this is the nearest way to the heart of a man, not his stomach as they claim. However, women are overcome by their natures except those whom Allaah grants His Mercy. We supplicate Allaah to guide our sisters to preserve their husbands and homes, and grant them a good intention behind this, so that their actions would raise their degrees in Paradise. I hope that those who are bored with their husbands and about talking about their rights and the wives’ duties are not annoyed. Our purpose is to preserve the homes and families, and to lead them to the land of safety. Let the wives take the initiative, and they will reap the fruit in the worldly life and the Hereafter, Allaah willing.
