How to Improve Concentration in Salah

May 31, 2023 by admin

Now the Question asked by almost all Muslims is “ how to concentrate on in Salah/Namaz? ”
The other day a person was asking me, you know what I cannot concentrate much in Salah.
can you give me a remedy for concentration in Salah?
You see Shaitaan is an expert in his field, he has Ph.D. in his field. what he does is, he knows that now you are trying to plug with Allah subhanahu wata’ala, so as you standing in salah and you say Allah Akbar he comes to you and he says; hey your phone is going to ring just now, so now you’re worried about your phone ringing, then he says you know it’s getting a bit late. so now you worried about the time, then he says immediately after this you have a meeting, so now you worried about the meeting, then he says you’re going to need to go and eat just now the food is getting cold, now you worried about the food and it’s getting cold,
then he says you know there is a sale some way down at the other shop you need to go and buy the stuff before it is sold out so now you worried about the sale and the products and Shaitaan keeps on distracting you and when the Imam says; Wa laddhaalin, we say Ameen. we don’t even know whether it’s the end of surah of the Fatiha or another verse in the Quran.
in Ramadan, I have witnessed the verses of the Quran that end with Waladhaalin, there are verses of the Quran that end with Waladhaalin so sometimes people are sleeping in Salah, literally sleeping and the Imam is not reading surat al-Fatihah, but in another place in the Quran and he says; Waladhaalin. and many brothers say; Ameen.
but hang on this is not even surah Fatiha, this is somewhere else in the Quran, but because we are tuned and saying that once you hear Waladhaalin, you must just say Waladhaalin that’s not what it is. it shows that concentration is zero. may Allah Subhanahu WA Ta’ala forgive us, you should concentrate on the words.
in order to maximize the concentration in Salah, there are many remedies that we are taught,

1. Learn The Meaning of Salah.

one of them is to try and understand what you are saying in Salah when you start with Allah Akbar, what is the dua you make? what does it mean? what am I saying in Surat al-fatiha?
When I go into Ruku’ and praise Allah SWT, what does it mean?
When I get up Sami’a Allahu Liman Hamidah, what does it mean why do I say rabbana walakal Hamd why do I say that?
so when you learn the meaning of Salah inshallah your concentration will be maximized because now you know what you say, if you don’t know the meaning, you just come forth and you just hear Waladhaalin and you say, Ameen, that’s the type of Salaah may Allah forgive us.
So you have to make a resolution, I want you to promise Allah Subhanahu WA Ta’ala that this Ramadan you will start learning Quran and the meanings of the Quran and Salah, the meaning of what you are saying in salah.
It’s easy to get books online you can google it, and when you get the source, make sure it’s an authentic source meaning of the words of Salah and go into it.
Start Today
if you want to start today so that at least with Ramadan comes, you will concentrate.
those who love the Quran or those who understand the Quran they love the recitation of the Quran because they know what it means. they are moved by it those who don’t understand the Quran and don’t want to understand it they become tired.

Worships in Laylatul-Qadr

May 31, 2023 by admin

What is Laylatul-Qadr?

Laylatul-Qadr is the most blessed night. Someone who misses it has indeed missed a fantastic quantity of virtues. If a believer is eager to obey his Lord and increase the good deeds in his book, he ought to try to spend this night time in worship and obedience. If that is possible for him, all of his preceding sins could be forgiven.

Prayers (Salah)

It is appreciated to make a long Qiyam prayer during the nights on which Laylatul-Qadr should fall. This is indicated in many Ahadith, which include the subsequent:

Abu Dharr (Radhiyallahu anh) relates: “We fasted with Allah’s Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) in Ramadan. He did not lead us in Qiyam (night time Vigil Prayer) at all till there have been seven nights of Ramadan left. Then he stood with us (that night, in Prayer) till one third of the night had passed. He did no longer pray with us on the 6th.

At the 5th night time, he prayed with us till half of the night had exceeded. So we said, ‘Allah’s Messenger! Wouldn’t you pray with us the entire night time?’ He replied, ‘Whoever stands in Prayer with Imam till he (the Imam) concludes the Prayer, it’ll be recorded for him that he prayed the complete night time…” (Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi)

Abu Dawud noted, “I heard Ahmad being asked, ‘Do you want for a person to wish with the human beings or via himself at some stage in Ramadan?’ He responded, ‘Pray with the human beings’ I also heard him say, ‘i’d select for one to wish Qiyam with Imam and to wish Witr with him as well, for the Prophet (peace be upon him) stated, “when anyone prays with the Imam until he finishes, he’ll earn the reward of praying the whole night.”

Abu Hurairah (Radhi Allah anh) reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “Whoever stands (in Qiyam) in Laylatul-Qadr(and it’s far facilitated for him) out of faith and expectation of Allah’s reward, all of his preceding sins will be forgiven.” (Al-Bukhari and Muslim)

The word “and it is facilitated for him”, means that someone is allowed to be among the honest worshippers at some point of that blessed night.

Ulama also recommend to pray salatul tasbeeh in laylatul qadr, click below image to learn how to perform it…

Making Supplications:

it is also advocated to make enormous supplication on this night. `
A’ishah (Radhi Allahu Anha) narrated that she requested the Prophet (peace and advantages be upon him) “O Messenger of Allah(PBUH)! If I knew which night is Laylatul-Qadr, what need to I say at some point of it?”
And he taught her to make this Dua: “Allahumma innaka `afuwwun tuhibbul `afwa fa`fu `annee (O Allah! You are Oft-Forgiving, and you love forgiveness. So forgive me).”

(Ahmad, Ibn Majah and At-Tirmithi)

Leaving behind Worldly Pleasures for the Sake of Worship:

it is further advocated to spend greater time in worship for the duration of the nights on whichLaylatul-Qadr is probably to be. This calls for forsaking many worldly pleasures in an effort to save the time and thoughts entirely for worshipping Allah.

This is primarily based on the following Hadith narrated through `A’ishah (Radhi Allahu anha): “Upon stepping into the remaining ten (of Ramadan), the Prophet (peace and be upon him) could tighten his Izar (i.e. He stayed far from his better halves so as to have greater time for worship), spend the complete night wakeful (in Prayer), and awaken his family.” (Al-Bukhari and Muslim) She also said, “Allah’s Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) used to exert greater efforts (in worship) at the remaining ten than on other nights.” (Muslim)

18 Good Deeds That Erase Bad Deeds

May 30, 2023 by admin

Good deeds that Erase or Remove your Bad deeds / Sins

Allah SWT loves humans so much, he is always waiting for his slave to come back and make taubah (repent).
In the holy Quran Allah SWT said: Say (on My behalf), “O servants of Mine who have acted recklessly against their own selves, do not despair of Allah’s mercy. Surely, Allah will forgive all sins. Surely, He is the One who is the Most-Forgiving, the Very-Merciful. (Zumar; 53)
Also in Surah Aal Imran: and those who, when they happen to commit a shameful act or wrong themselves, remember Allah, then, seek forgiveness for their sins -and who is there to forgive sins except Allah?-and do not persist in what they have done, knowingly. (Aal Imran: 135)
Surely, Allah does not forgive that a partner is ascribed to Him, and forgives anything short of that for whomsoever He wills. Whoever ascribes a partner to Allah has indeed gone far astray. (Nisa: 116)
So I said, Pray to your Lord for your forgiveness, – Indeed He is Very-Forgiving, (Surah Nooh: 10)
Whoever acts evil or wrongs himself, then seeks forgiveness from Allah, shall find Allah Most Forgiving, Very-Merciful. (Nisaa: 110).
Below are some of those acts who removes or wipe out your sins according to Hadith:

  1. Rememberce of Allah while listening to Adhan.
    Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said; “Whoever says, when he hears the adhan: And I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, him Alone without any partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger: I am pleased with Allah as my Lord, with Islam as my religion and with Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) as my Prophet. His sins will be forgiven.”(Muslim).
  2. Wudu.
    Uthman ibn Affan reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Whoever performs ablution in an excellent manner, then his sins will depart from his body even from beneath his fingernails.”
  3. Performing Obligatory Salah / Five Prayers
    Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “If there was a river at your door and he took a bath in it five times a day, would you notice any dirt on him?” They said, “Not a trace of dirt would be left.” The Prophet said, “That is the parable of the five prayers by which Allah removes sins.”
    Source: Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 505, Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 667Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (sallallaahu ’alayhi wa sallam) said, “A man’s Salat in congregation is twenty-five times more rewarding than his Salat at home or in his shop, and that is because when he performs his Wudu’ properly and proceeds towards the mosque with the purpose of performing Salat in congregation, he does not take a step without being raised a degree (in rank) for it and having a sin remitted for it, till he enters the mosque. When he is performing Salat, the angels continue to invoke Blessings of Allah on him as long as he is in his place of worship in a state of Wudu’. They say: `O Allah! Have mercy on him! O Allah! Forgive him.’ He is deemed to be engaged in Salat as long as he waits for it.”
    [Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
    Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: The five (daily) prayers and from one Friday prayer to the (next) Friday prayer, and from Ramadhan to Ramadhan are expiations for the (sins) committed in between (their intervals) provided one shuns the major sins.
  4. Night Prayer and Isteghfaar / Asking for Forgiveness
    Abu Huraira narrates that Allah’s Apostle said, “When it is the last third of the night, our Lord, the Blessed, the Superior, descends every night to the heaven of the world and says, ‘Is there anyone who invokes Me (demand anything from Me), that I may respond to his invocation; is there anyone who asks Me for something that I may give (it to) him; is there anyone who asks My forgiveness that I may forgive him?” (Sahih Al Bukhari: 8.333)
  5. Sadaqah / Charity
    The afflictions caused for a man by his wife, money, children and neighbor are expiated by his prayers, fasting, charity and by enjoining (what is good) and forbidding (what is evil).
  6. Etiquette of Friday
    Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“If a man takes bath on Friday, cleans himself as much as he can, oils his hair, applies perfume available in his house, sets forth for the mosque, does not separate two people (to make a seat for himself), performs as many Prayers as written [by Allah] for him, remains silent when the Imam speaks, his sins between that Friday and the following Friday will be forgiven.” (Al-Bukhari).
  7. Fast of Ramadan
    The Prophet (ﷺ) said, ” Whoever fasts in the month of Ramadan out of sincere faith, and hoping for a reward from Allah, then all his previous sins will be forgiven.”
  8. Prayer of Ramadan
    Whoever established prayers on the night of Qadr out of sincere faith and hoping for a reward from Allah, then all his previous sins will be forgiven.
  9. Prayer on Night of Al-Qadr
    The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Whoever established prayers on the night of Qadr out of sincere faith and hoping for a reward from Allah, then all his previous sins will be forgiven.
  10. Tasbeeh (Praising Allah SWT)
    from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, “Whoever says, ‘Glory be to Allah and with His praise’ (Subhana’llah wa bi-hamdihi) one hundred times in a day will have his wrong actions taken away from him, even if they are as abundant as the foam on the sea.”
  11. Fasting on 10th Muharram (‘Aashura)
    The Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Fast the Day of Ashura, for indeed I anticipate that Allah will forgive (the sins of) the year before it.”
  12. Umrah
    The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, “(The performance of) ‘Umrah is an expiation for the sins committed between it and the previous ‘Umrah; and the reward of Hajj Mabrur (i.e., one accepted) is nothing but Jannah.”[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
  13. Hajj (Pilgrimage)
    Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
    The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, “Whoever performs Hajj (pilgrimage) and does not have sexual relations (with his wife), nor commits sin, nor disputes unjustly (during Hajj), then he returns from Hajj as pure and free from sins as on the day on which his mother gave birth to him.”[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
  14. Standing at Arafah
    ‘A’isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:There is no day when God sets free more servants from Hell than the Day of ‘Arafa. He draws near, then praises them to the angels, saying: What do these want?
  15. Fasting on the day of Arafah
    It was narrated from Abu Qatadah that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
    “Fasting on the Day of ‘Arafah, I hope from Allah, expiates for the sins of the year before and the year after.”
  16. Fever
    Jabir (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
    The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) visited Umm Sa’ib (or Umm Musaiyyab) and asked her, “What ails you O Umm Sa’ib (or Umm Musaiyyab)? You are shivering.” She replied: “It is a fever, may Allah not bless it!” He said to her, “Do not revile fever, for it cleanses out the sins of the sons of Adam in the same way that a furnace removes the dirt of iron.”[Muslim].
  17. Diseases, Grieves, Sorrows
    Abu Sa’id and abu Huraira reported that they heard Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:
    Never a believer is stricken with discomfort, hardship or illness, grief or even with mental worry that his sins are not expiated for him.‘A’isha reported Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:
    A believer does not undergo (the trouble) of running a thorn or more than that when Allah effaces his sins.
  18. Expiation of a Session
    Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
    Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, “Whoever sits in a gathering and indulges in useless talk and before getting up supplicates: ‘Subhanaka Allahumma wa bihamdika, ash-hadu an la ilaha illa Anta, astaghfiruka wa atubu ilaika (O Allah, You are free from every imperfection; praise be to You. I testify that there is no true god except You; I ask Your Pardon and turn to You in repentance),’ he will be forgiven for (the sins he may have intentionally or unintentionally committed) in that assembly.”[At-Tirmidhi].
