Even if you wake up by 5am these days, you'd still be observing Tahajjud.
Don't sleep away your nights, the nights have been prolonged so the righteous servants of Allah can spend a considerable portion of the nights worshipping their Creator.
Stand up even if it's to thank him
Wake up for tahajjud
Observe the Rakataanil fajr
Observe the Fajr Solah in Congregation
Say the morning adhkaar
Recite the Qur'an
Stay in the same spot in the masjid till sunrise
Observe 2 unit of solah before going home (Reward of performing hajj and Umrah
- Anas bn Maalik
This brother is one i enjoin my friends learning the basics of communication in arabic to follow on SM. His videos are like the practical sessions for Duruusu lughah and more..It helps with your communication.
Let's learn, what do you think will happen to his Solah of 15yrs?
Whenever I'm in my sujood,I make my Dua in Arabic (as this is the opinion i feel safe with) till one day i was too sad and emotional.
E get some mess wey be say once you find yourself inside,you need to give Allah the full details in tears even though he's aware.
For everytime I see weezy and remember my addiction to his songs especially John with Rozay,I say Alhamdulillah all over again.
Leaving music was very hard but so beneficial.
I didn't leave it alone,I replaced it in my heart with a greater portion of the Quran immediately.
It is sunnah to take food to the family of the deceased while going to offer our condolences.
The family who just lost their loved one shouldn't be the ones frying akara or Massa because people are coming to commiserate with them.
I've met people who memorized the Quran before 10,I've met brothers and sisters who started and finished in their 30s and 40s.
The point is they all made the move and Allah crowned it with success.
Do you still think it's early/late to start your journey with the Quran?
Saw my friend's second wife yesterday after some months and i was happy to see her on niqab.
This sister became a Muslim 3 years ago,started madrasah,got married and is doing well with madrasah and her married life.
May Allah bless her,the first wife,their children and my friend.
قد سرقت فاطمة خبز..
This is lovely and funny(the intonation). Guess a lot of us started this way though not in this setting.
بارك الله في هذا الولد الجميل ومعلمه
For those that stopped listening to music a long time ago,the battle you have isn't against the new ones coming out as you ain't even familiar with them,its rather against the urge to sing the old ones you know when they are randomly played.
Its shaytan at work,don't fall for it
The Imam shouldn't prolong the Solah during fajr bcos you can't afford to be late for work.
During Zuhr,he shouldn't prolong the Solah(2-4 min) as you took a break from work.
Ishaa again,Imam pls shorten it we are tired after a long day.
When exactly will you not be in a haste?
You remember my little friend Umm Saalim I said started her Hifz journey during the ASUU strike? Yeah she completed the memorization of the Quran today.
Sisters and brothers, has the time still not come for you to begin your journey with the Quran?
Books on Hadith like Umdatul Ahkaam, Riyaadu Saaliheen and Adabul Mufrad are basic necessities for all Muslim households. Not voluminous and easily understood even if it's the transliterations you get.
From them you learn basic adab,rulings and ways of our predecessors.
Find a madrasah an offline madrasah one,attend Halaaqaat where the the pristine Islamis discussed.
At this present time,you need a teacher you have a direct access to,a gathering of knowledge to keep you on your feet and the sitting with brethren who remind one about Allah.
My salary as a teacher monthly was 14k. If i miss a day with an excuse other than "I'm very sick" ,it attracts a fine of 1k, resumption a min after 7am attracts a fine of 5 hundred.
Lastly i taught Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Agric..
I ran after 1 week.
It was at Ibadan
Abu Naasir is clear
Dr Sharof is very good
Dr Faadil has to be one of the best Islamic scholars around
Ooh how can I forget Prof Alaro,
I stan Ustadh Amubieya so much
Sheikh Ajia wow ma sha Allah.
Its easy to stan them,but how well do you follow what they say?
Shrouding the dead is from the most rewardable acts a Muslim can partake in, avoid turnIng it to a sinful one for yourself by disclosing what you see over there.
"Her body was glowing while she being shrouded "? What do you stand to gain from that? Why not conceal all you see/saw
Our not too young sisters are on Tik Tok dancing with Jilbabs and Niqaab,the bigger ones are vibing to portable's songs on Instagram all in the name of 'Advertising their wares/products'.
Oh Ummah of Muhammad,where has your modesty gone to?
I will be tweeting an adhkaar every day from tomorrow morning after subhi in sha Allah..Can we try and memorize them and put them in our daily usage .
#anadhkaraday

That we do not display Allah's favour upon us doesn't in any way mean we are not being favored,neither does it mean we are not grateful.
When Allah blesses you,you do not push the blessings in the face of people,lest you attract evil eyes.
Do better,the evil eye is real.
"One Solatul Subh prayed at masjidul haraam has a reward greater than the 5 daily Solah you observe for 62yrs in a masjid other than Haraam "
"Indeed the rich and the affluents have gone away with good deeds".
May Allah make it easy for us all to visit his house, Aamin.
There's this joy you get when you pray behind someone who's knowledge of the Quran recitation is top notch(tajweed, riwayaat) and has a very beautiful voice to go with it.
The calmness,the concentration,the happiness especially if you've memorized the page being read.
Takbeeratul ihraam signifies the commencement of the Solah so do not in your haste to meet the congregation while bowing,or prostrating join them straight without the takbeeratul ihraam.
Approach the Solah with sakeenah ,and pay back whatever you miss ,said the prophet
When we say to our brethren who are fervent with innovations to desist,its because we love them.
The one who starts an innovation won't be there when other innovations start to stem out
From Adhkaar in Unison alone,we now have Live IG Tahajjud session,Live Asalatu..
E- bid'a..
A Muslim is not a skit maker,a comedian or whatever close to that such that what his source of livelihood is gotten from lying to people.
It's forbidden in Islam when you're serious likewise when you're joking.
We don't lie to make people smile,our prophet clearly forbade it.
Dedicate the large part of your weekends to those Ibaadaat that you were "Too busy" for during the week.
Recite Quran more, observe your Tahajjud and avoid sleeping away your nights , Solatu Duha, your Adhkaar, attend Knowledge circles.
Don't spend all your time on this dunya.
Surah Sad, Verse 27:
And We created not the heaven and the earth and all that is between them without purpose! That is the consideration of those who disbelieve! Then woe to those who disbelieve (in Islamic Monotheism) from the Fire!
The realest, most sincere and important Alhamdulillah Muslims would say is when they enter Al Jannah.
This is when we would understand the favour Allah gave to us by being Muslims,and making us live and die as Muslims.
Oh Allah,do not take our souls except as Muslims.
And of mankind is he who purchases idle talks (i.e. music, singing, etc.) to mislead (men) from the Path of Allah without knowledge, and takes it (the Path of Allah) by way of mockery. For such there will be a humiliating torment (in the Hell-fire).
Q31v6
I stopped listening to music and my journey with the Qur'an started.
I memorized more in the next two months more than I did in the previous 18 years..
It was hard leaving Adele,trey songz, wiz khalifa but it was fun finding "Mishawiy, Khusoriy,As Sudais, Muayqaliy,Ghamdi...
When you start practicing the deen seriously,you will definitely regret the not so good lifestyle you've lived in the past.
When you start wearing the hijab,you will regret ever putting your pictures on social media especially the ones without hijab.
Gbogbo yin wa n shey hard girl hard girl,no love here,stay wicked queens and eat your "spaghetti" in peace,men don't deserve your love and all,and in reality e n shey nikaah underground,e n mislead and deceive awon Ayyuha ladhina aamonuu,e ku ise o.

The best of women were the women of the ansars.
They were shy yes,but their shyness didn't shy them away from seeking the knowledge of their deen.
It could have prevented them,but it didn't.
Our women aren't shy,yet they know next to nothing.
A lot we on SM which we see daily..
I saw the kids I taught "Iqraa" last night dancing to "Ololademi Asake" with their mom after Subh.
Same kids are finding it hard to recite well,and observe Solah at the right time.
Wait till the father comes back with "I can't even see the impact of the madrasah in their lives"
This is my grandpa.
Comes to masjid an hour before Subh, stays in the masjid after Zuhr in anticipation for Asr,goes home after Asr,comes back some minutes before maghrib to observe maghrib,stays again in anticipation for Ishaa.
He's been doing this for more than 10yrs now.
For us,Practicing the Sunnah was much easier in school in the midst of friends,several lectures,classes and all and Alhamdulillah we never took it for granted.
After school? It's tougher and the real test begin. Different environment with different tests.
Will you still be firm?
Its so fine to prefer a food over another,but it's not Islamic to call food trash or words close to it.
Abu hurayrah narrated that the prophet never criticized or find faults in foods,if he had inclination to eating it,he would eat,and if he doesn't,he would leave it.
Saheehayn
The fear of Allah is the precursor to the other parts of this Aayah just like it is general basics for us.
How do you fear the day of Qiyaamah and the happenings of that day if you don't fear Allah who's going to be the judge on such a day?
Fear Him,may he be pleased with you
Memorizing the Quran might be easy,at times hard. A page at times might be for 3-5 mins,at times an hour. Don't ever compare your progress to your friends as theirs might not be easy too.
Don't be in a haste to complete it. Perfection is more important and please ALWAYS REVISE.
Omo sister Mahfuuzoh is tall shaa.
I don't even know bro Abdullah has such a long beards
Ahh Abbass beard is so full oo.
So i saw Bro Ibrahim at that Nikkah, brother yen fine baje.
Oniranu ni gbogbo yin,what part of lowering the gaze and being Modest do you not understand?
Wake up for tahajjud
Observe the Rakataanil fajr
Observe the Fajr Solah in Congregation
Say the morning adhkaar
Recite the Qur'an
Stay in the same spot in the masjid till sunrise
Observe 2 unit of solah before going home (Reward of performing hajj and Umrah from Anas bn Maalik
She's Faatimah bint Al aswad, from a prominent tribe and she was the first Muslim on whom the punishment of cutting the hand was done.
When Usaamah bn Zayd came to beg on her behalf, the prophet ﷺ said "Even if it was Fatimah bint Muhammad that stole,I shall cut off her hands"
This lady during the time of the Rasulullah ﷺstole and was brought to him ﷺfor judgement in which her hand was cut off. She later became so used to visiting the Rasulullah ﷺand became sort of a friend to Aisha (May Allah be pleased with her). She sincerely repented and
Brethren remember Nikaah is an ibaadah,so treat it as one.
Remember to keep and protect ur home from breaking as this is what Allah wants.
A lot of our brethren are finding it so hard to get married due to a sin they know nothing about. "Products of broken homes" they are tagged
-Go to madrasah and learn Islam
-Read books with the supervision and guidance of teachers
-Attend sittings of knowledge physically and if not do it virtually.
-Have a direct teacher you can always seek clarifications from and ask questions.
N.B make sure to find a path to learn
May Allah continue to bless the elderly men in my masjid at home for their calmness and patience during Solah.
Sometimes when we decide to shorten it,my grandpa and the others would say "Make the Solah correct and beautiful, elongate it, perhaps this might be our last on Earth"
It was narrated from Anas bn Maalik that the prophet May the peace and Blessings of Allah be upon him said:
Three things ,whosoever attains them will find therein the sweetness of Eeman (Faith)
1 When Allah and the prophet are more dearer to him than anyone else
.....
A 9-4 job or business after which we resume teaching or learning at the madrasah till maghrib,pause till after maghrib and start teaching the Quran till late after Ishaa.
The kind of life I've always wished and prayed for.
Oh Allah,make this easy and possible for me .
Please if Allah makes it possible for you to attend this year's KBC, do well to visit my sister's stand for your indigenous snacks like Kulikuli alata,dodo Ikire, killishi and others.
Jazaakumullahu khayran as you patronize us..
Tabarruj is the shameless display of adornment by the women folks like the people of the jahiliyyah times,the women who do this are the mutabarrijaat.
Dayooth is the man who has no protective jealousy as regards his wife or female relatives.
They both won't enter Al jannah.
Sisters wearing a jumping Jilbaab one that's exposing their legs,and brothers who have turned their trousers to the rug covering the innermost part of their sandals.
A tale of switching sunnah.
Let the Hijab touch the ground,and let the pants go above the ankle,the prophet said..
Zina is one big sin that's so hard to stop immediately you start.
If you haven't started,i beg you for Allah's sake to not go close to it.
It doesn't only destroy you,it subscribes one to the wrath of Allah.
Is the few minutes of enjoyment really worth it?
May Allah protect you.
When people greet you with the Odun greetings like;
A Ku odun,
A Ku iyedun
The moment they get to the "Emi wa a se pupo" part ,just add "lori daadaa" because that dua is incomplete.
It is not the odun that's important,what's more important is celebrating it upon khayr.
There's more to your Quran recitation than shouting and beautifying your voices.
The most important aspect of reciting the Quran is the correct pronunciation of letters and application of the basic ruling of tajweed.
Pronounce well first,before you beautify your recitations..
Apparently one of my sisters in the Masjid has been dating a brother called Mudathir for a while. Today she was meant to memorize Suratul Mudathir and when we read the first verse,the others shouted "Hmmmm Aisha"
Pelu gbogbo "dating is haraam" ti mo n pariwo
I just dey play.
Observing Solah with those trousers exposing some parts of your thighs is generally not permissible for those places are part of your Awrah.
Perfect covering of your awrah on Solah is from the Waajibat of Solah.
Don't waste your Solah,make sure you're properly covered.
Be moderate in your recitations oh you who's leading the Solah, for behind you are the aged,the weak,the pregnant and the nursing mothers,but do not be in a haste.
Don't be hasty, observe the Solah moderately and happily like a slave who's so happy in the presence of his master.
I introduced a sister who just started wearing the Jilbaab to another who makes it.
We got a good one for 14k.
For real,only Allah can reward our sisters dressing decently.
Your reward is with Allah,may he not deny you the rewards in this world and the hereafter.
Everytime I see tweets about going into polygny from brothers,I tend to get so happy.
Some of us might not do it,but it still remains an Integral part of our Deen.
Our nabiyy did it,the companions did it,those after them did it, who am I to now say I won't do it?Emi gege bi tani?
Yesterday I aired my plight( the cash issue) on my Whatsapp status and a very good BIG sister told me to come for small change.. loro kan mo gba 15k shaa ki n fi guide ni next week.
Umm Mazeedatul Khayr,may Allah continue to bless you and your household.
Awon eeyan nuun..
So how far have you gone in the memorization of the glorious Quran?
How many Ajzaa have you done?
How many chapters do you have now? Just the 4 Quls, and Faatihah?
Till when do you intend to be stay way?
The book was sent down for us to read,learn,memorize and reflect upon.
For everytime i read the hadith "Allah will not accept the prayer of any woman who has reached the age of menstruation unless she prays with her Khimar",
I ask myself the following
Are the ones praying in tight trousers,shorts oblivious of this or they are just stubborn?
The ones in the grave aren't even concerned about how cold the weather is,all they desire is to come back to the world to amass more good deeds perhaps their punishment might be eased or their enjoyment increased. Why not take the chance?
Do not abandon fajr in congregation.
Your wives are never your congregations for Obligatory Solawaat when the masjid is there.
Endeavor to observe the morning adhkaar too.
May Allah guide us and preserve us all upon khayr
A picture or video of a Muslimah( even if she's fully covered) is one i would never share,upload or comment on even if she's reciting the Quran or reciting a beneficial Hadith or lines of poem.
Her pictures/videos are not meant to be on SM in the first place,why am I aiding her?
A lot of times we forget that our trials might come in the form of people.
وَجَعَلْنَا بَعْضَكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ فِتْنَةً أَتَصْبِرُونَ وَكَانَ رَبُّكَ بَصِيرًا
And We have made some of you as trials for others: will you have patience? And your Lord is sees it all.
Q25v20
The indecencies now apparent in the Ummah could better be traced to their deep friendship with people of other faiths.
Abdullah prefers to be friends with Jonah rather than Abbass because Abbass is 'too serious with the deen' and wouldn't be happy seeing him sinning openly.
On a more serious note,do you people know this is an offshoot of Adhkaar in Congregation?
A bid'ah no matter how insignificant would always give rise to a bigger one till it takes one out of the fold of Islam.
This is from the derivatives of "ASALATU".
May Allah rectify us.
Dear brothers and sisters with the blue tick ,may Allah continue to be with you and protect you.
In a quest to eat from Elon musk's free money, please don't throw away your Islam, modesty and knowledge.
Stick to posting reminders, please may Allah make it beneficial for us all.
Your prayers as a Muslim woman in trousers,tight clothing or mini with your arms ,feet,neck exposed would never be accepted by Allah.
Your clothing for Solah and at all times should be free flowing,long and should cover your whole body parts save your palm and your face.
The ones in the grave aren't even concerned about how cold the weather is,all they desire is to come back to the world to amass more good deeds perhaps their punishment might be eased or their enjoyment increased,you still have that chance now,why are you not taking it?
Pretty "Hijabi"Thread,sisters flaunt that beauty,let's see what you got.
Brothers take note.
Ma sha Allah "beard " brothers thread,brothers flaunt that beard even if it's not connecting.
Sisters,you can shoot that shot
On a more serious,how does a fitnah start other than this?
Regarding the morning and evening Adhkaar, do not be from those who doubt it's importance and efficacy.
They are authentically reported from our predecessors, likewise their importance.
Ikhwah, remember the Morning Adhkaar and do not for once joke with it.
Assalamu alaykum.
From the Sunnah of the adhan is that the muadhin (the one calling to prayer) has a very long reaching and beautiful voice. This was the major reason why Bilal was picked by the prophet.
The sweet voice is also a means to increase the congregants.
Beautify your adhan,it's Sunnah
This might be the time for sisters to learn the concept of Hijab in Islam.
A lot of the Jilbaab we see these days are devoid of the basics of Jilbaab which is to be free flowing and wide,free of adornment,not be an adornment itself.
Don't style it,just leave it that way..
Brothers should fear Allah and be mindful of their pictures/videos which they post online.
The way we regard the pictures of sisters as fitnah to us is the way ours are to sisters also.
Help them to lower their gaze,help them win against shaytan,don't help shaytan over them.
We are not even looking for spouses that have memorized the whole Quran ,books of Hadeeth ,can speak much of arabiyyah again
We just want someone whose aqeedah is free from blemishes ,manhaj is clear, willing to learn and be a dutiful spouse to us.
May Allah grant us the best.
Reading translated books like Men around the messenger,Let us be Muslims,Don't be sad,When the moon Split,At taubah,The Sealed Nectar and others does not put you in the position to vilify the honour of the scholars.
Much is attached to the scholars as regards their importance..
From that little you know as regards the deen,once a while share them with your parents especially the aged ones.
A lot of our parents are open to learning,our approaches have just been wrong,and yes we tend to not be too patient with them.
Employ good words,wisdom and patience
