When things are down
And you are out of your mind
Remember just remember
Allah is The All-Kind.
When your life is in darkness
And nothing is right
Remember just remember
Through the darkness, Allah is The Light.
When nothing makes sense
And you're heading for demise
Remember just remember
Allah is The All-Wise.
When times are troubled
And no one seems to care
Remember just remember
Allah won't hurt you, He is The Most Just.
When your heart is breaking
And your pain makes you fall
Remember just remember
Allah sees it all.
When you are weak
And the road seems long
Remember just remember
Seek strength from The All-Strong.
When life is a burden
And everything is unstable
Remember just remember
Allah is The All-Able.
When the way is cloudy
And there is no one by your side
Remember just remember
Allah is The Only Guide.
When no one wants to listen
Or is willing to lend an ear
Remember just remember
Allah is always ready to hear.
When you are poor and penniless
And you are stuck in a niche
Remember just remember
Allah is The All-Rich.
When you are down in your misery
And there is nowhere to run
Remember just remember
You can always run to The One.
When you're all alone
And your pain has no end
Remember just remember
Allah is the Most Compassionate.
And when your scars are hurting
And your heart is in fear
Remember just remember
Allah's help is near.

Personal, - Zakaah and Hajj

Zakaah:
The Muslim women payZakaat)obligatory charity( on her wealth, if she is wealthy enough to be liable forZakaat.Every year at a specified time, she calculates how much she owns and pays what she has to, becauseZakaatis a pillar of Islam, and there can be no compromise or excuse when it comes to paying it every year, even if the amount comes to thousands or millions. It would never occur to the true Muslim woman to try to avoid paying some of theZakaatthat she is obliged to pay.
Zakaatis a clearly-defined financial obligation and act of worship which Allaah has enjoined upon every Muslim, man or women, who owns the minimum amount )Nisaab( or more. WithholdingZakaat, or denying that it is obligatory, is tantamount to apostasy and disbelief. The words of Abu Bakr, may Allaah be pleased with him, concerning the apostates who withheld theirZakaatecho down the centuries to us:"By Allaah I will fight whoever separates Salaat from Zakaat."
These immortal words demonstrate the greatness of this religion, which made the connection between "religious" and "secular" affairs, and reveal Abu Bakr's, may Allaah be pleased with him, deep understanding of the nature of this integrated, holistic way of life, which combines abstract beliefs with the practical application of their principles. Many verses of the Quran confirm the interdependence ofSalaah)prayer( andZakaatin the structure of faith:
}. . . Those who establish regular prayer and regular charity . . .{]Quran 5:55[
}And be steadfast in prayer: practice regular charity.{]Quran 2:43[
}. . . ]those who[ . . . establish prayers and regular charity.{]Quran 2:277[
It is clear to the true Muslim woman that Islam - although it has given her, the right to financial independence, and has not obliged her to support herself or others, which is, rather, the duty of men - has indeed enjoinedZakaaton her, and has madeZakaata right to which the poor are entitled. So the Muslim woman would not hesitate to pay it in the ways prescribed by Islam. She cannot claim to be excused because she is a woman and no woman is obliged to spend on others. Any woman who makes such a claim has a poor understanding of Islam, her faith is weak and there is some fault in her personality. Or else she is a woman, who appears to be religious, but she is ignorant and negligent, or is stingy and loves money, and it would never occur to her to payZakaateven though she fasts, prays and performsHajj, and occasionally gives a small charitable donation from her great wealth. These types of women - ignorant or stingy - are nothing like the true Muslim woman as envisaged by Islam. In which part of the month he would fast.'"
Hajj:
The true Muslim woman intends to go onHajj)pilgrimage( to the House of Allaah when conditions are fulfilled )she is financially and physically able to do so and has aMahramto travel with(. Before she sets out on her journey, she takes the time to study the rules ofHajjin depth, so that when she begins to perform the rituals ofHajj, her actions will be based on true understanding and herHajjwill be complete according to the conditions laid down by the Islam.Hajjfor women is the equivalent ofJihaadfor men, as the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, described it in the following narration reported by `Aa'ishah, may Allaah be pleased with her:"I ]`Aa'ishah, may Allaah be pleased with her[ said: `O Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, can we )women( not go out on military expeditions and fight in Jihaad with you )men(?' He, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said,`You )women( have the best of Jihaad, and the best of it is Hajj, an accepted Hajj.'"`Aa'ishah, may Allaah be pleased with her, said,"I should never stop going for Hajj after I heard this from the Messenger of Allaah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam."
`Umrah:
Just asHajjis obligatory for the Muslim woman, so also is `Umrah, if she is able to go. `UmrahduringRamadan, is especially important because its reward is equivalent to that for performingHajjwith the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam. Ibn `Abbaas, may Allaah be pleased with him, who said:"When the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, came back from Hajj, he, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said to Umm Sinaan Al-Ansariyyah, may Allaah be pleased with her,`What stopped you from going to Hajj?'She said, `Abu )so-and-so - meaning her husband( has two camels; he took one to go to Hajj, and we needed the other to irrigate our land.' He, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said,`When Ramadan comes, go for `Umrah, because `Umrah in Ramadan is equivalent to Hajj.'"According to another report also narrated by Ibn `Abbaas, the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said:"For `Umrah in Ramadan is equivalent to )performing( Hajj with me."]Al-Bukhaari[

Personal, - Using Pills to Delay the Monthly Period

Share Question:
I would like to go and perform‘Umrahat the end ofRamadan. However, this will coincide with my monthly period, which usually lasts for 10 days. Can I take some pills to delay my monthly period? Do these pills have any side-effects? What pills can you recommend for this purpose? Would consuming these pills hinder me from having children when I get married in the future?
Answer:
Assalaamu ‘Alaykum, dear sister Nada.
You can use Primolet-N. Start taking these at least one week before your monthly period begins and continue through the last days ofRamadan. These pills will have no side-effects if used for such a short period, nor will they have any long-term effects for when you get married.
