LIFESTYLE OF A MUSLIMAH

                I AM NOT A LABEL   I am not BLACK  I mean, that's what the world calls me, But it's not me. I didn't come out of my mother's womb saying.... "Hey everyone, I'm BLACK." No! I was taught to be BLACK And you were taught to call me that. Along with whatever you call yourself. It's just a LABEL. See, from birth,the world force feed us these LABELS. And eventually we all swallow them. We digest them and accept the LABEL. Never ever doubting them. But there is a problem, LABELS are not you, and LABELS are not me. LABELS are just LABELS. Who we truly are is not skin deep. See, when I drive my car, No one would ever confuse the car for me. Well, when I drive my body, Why did you confuse me for my body? It's my body. Get it? Not me. Let me break it down. See, our bodies are just cars that we operate and drive around. The dealership we call "SOCIETY" decided to label

The Messenger of Allah pbuh took hold of my hand and said: " O Mu'adh! By Allah I love you, so I advise you to never forget to recite after every prayer: Allaahumma a' inni ala dhikrika, wa shukrika, wa husni ibadatika" ( Oh Allah, help me to remember You, to be grateful to You, and to worship You in an excellent manner). Abû Dawud

Allah encouraged the believers to busy themselves in performing deeds that would bring them benefit and reward on the Day of Resurrection, such as prayer and paying Zakah. This way, they will gain Allah's aid in this life and on a Day when the witnesses testify, ﴿يَوْمَ لاَ يَنفَعُ الظَّـلِمِينَ مَعْذِرَتُهُمْ وَلَهُمُ الْلَّعْنَةُ وَلَهُمْ سُوءُ الدَّارِ ﴾ (The Day when their excuses will be of no profit to the Zalimin (wrongdoers). Theirs will be the curse, and theirs will be the evil abode (i.e. painful torment in Hell-fire)) (40:52). This is why Allah said, ﴿إِنَّ اللَّهَ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ بَصِيرٌ﴾ (Certainly, Allah sees what you do), meaning, that He is never unaware of the deeds of any person, nor w

- Fiqh of the family » Rights of spouses. What are the rights of the husband and what are the rights of the wife? what are a wife's rights on her husband according the Quran and Sunnah? or what are a husbands duties to his wife and viceversa? Praise be to Allaah. Islam has enjoined upon the husband duties towards his wife, and vice versa, and among these duties are some which are shared by both husband and wife.  We will mention – by the help of Allaah – some of the texts of the Qur’aan and Sunnah which have to do with the duties of the spouses towards one another, quoting also from the commentaries and views of the scholars.  Firstly:  The rights of the wife which are hers alone:  The wife has financial rights over her husband, which are the mahr (dowry), spending and accommodation.  And she has non-financial rights, such as fair division between co-wives, being treated in a decent and reasonable manner, and not being treated in a harmful way by her husband.  1
