IBN QAYYIM AL-JAWZIYAH
ISLAM is not a buffet where you pick and choose what suits you. Don't obey your desires. Obey ALMIGHTY-ALLAH.
"Imprisoned is he, whose heart is imprisoned from ALMIGHTY-ALLAH. Captured is he, who is captured by his desires."
FUDAYL IBN IYAD was asked "What do you find the strangest of all things?" He said: The heart that knows ALMIGHTY-ALLAH, yet still disobeys Him
Don’t miss SALĀH for the sake of people. You were BORN & will DIE alone, you’ll go to the GRAVE alone & be questioned alone on JUDGMENT Day

الْأَخِلَّاءُ يَوْمَئِذٍ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ عَدُوٌّ إِلَّا الْمُتَّقِينَ
Close friends, on that Day, will be enemies to each other, except for the righteous and GOD-FEARING..." •[Surah Az-Zukhruf:67]
FAJR you're asleep, ZUHUR you're busy, ASR you're tired, MAGRIB you're watching tv, ISHA you're eating. You can dodge PRAYER, but not DEATH.
We prepare for uncertain matters in our life like MARRIAGE etc but do we prepare for the one event that is definitely going to happen #DEATH
The first thing a slave will be held to account for is SALAH. If we fall short on that, then we will fall short on what's to come.
FAJR: Do not fear missing sleep. Fear a day in which there will be no SLEEP.”😔
Expecting PARADISE whilst neglecting PRAYER, is like waiting for a TRAIN to arrive at the AIRPORT. Remember to pray DHUHR
Everyone DREAMS to be in JANNATUL-FIRDAUS, but ALMIGHTY-ALLAHﷻ says:
لَّيْسَ بِأَمَانِيِّكُمْ
PARADISE is not obtained by your wishful thinking •[An-Nisa 4:123] #work hard 4 HEREAFTER

IBN AL-QAYYIM(رحمه اللّٰه):
"He whom ALMIGHTY-ALLAH has predestined to enter PARADISE, the reasons which will cause his entrance shall spring from calamities;
He whom ALMIGHTY-ALLAH has predestined to enter the HELLFIRE, the reasons which will cause his entrance shall spring from lusts”
Get used to a rough life, for luxury does not last forever. -UMAR IBN AL KHATTAB
Do not be overly pleased by easy times. Verily, GOLD is tested for its purity by fire. Likewise,a righteous servant is tested by tribulations
It pains me to see born MUSLIMS chasing the lifestyle of the disbelievers by drinking, clubbing, getting high etc.
Why do you think reverts run away from that life to the deen of ALLAH. Run back to your Lord for His mercy overcomes His wrath.
How long will the person be happy with his worldly life?..Knowing that his ultimate home is the grave"
No matter how beautiful your face is, you will still be the food of worms when you are buried. Set aside your arrogance & remember your grave
Every single limb & organ in your body will speak up & bear witness against every action you committed in this DUNYA
مَّا يَلْفِظُ مِن قَوْلٍ إِلَّا لَدَيْهِ رَقِيبٌ عَتِيدٌ
Not a word is said except that there is a watcher by him ready to record it.” [Surah Qaf:18] This includes all that you posted.
Hijab includes the way a person walks, talks, looks and thinks. All of it should be done modestly and applies to both men and women" #Hijab
My dear sisters in ISLAM. Cover up for the sake of ALLAH before its too late as today you are over the soil but tomorrow you may be under it
Yes hijab doesn't necessarily indicate your level of piety BUT it is fard (a must). So regardless of what you say, you HAVE to wear it.
Make tawba (sincere repentance) not just for sins you've committed, but also for obligations you haven't fulfilled.” [Ibn Taymiyyah]
I pray that the comfort of our graves exceeds the comfort of our beds.
We ask ALMIGHTY-ALLAH سبحانه وتعالى to take our souls away when He's most pleased with us and make us of those who are always conscious.
AMEEN-YAA-RABBAL-ALLAHMEEN!
