Shahadah in Islam

According To hadiths : 1. Rank Equal to Martyr (Shaheed) The Pro phet (Peace be upon him) said: “The reward of a woman, from the time of pregnancy until birth and breastfeeding, is the same as the reward of one on the path of Allah, and if a woman leaves this world during that time because of the hardship and pains of birth, she has the reward of a martyr.” [Makarim al-Akhlāq, pg. 238] 2.Virtues for being Pregnant The Prophet (Peace be upon him) said: “Paradise is under the feet of the mother.” [Mustadrak al-Wasāil, vol. 15, pg. 180] 3.Which of the parents have a higher status? The Prophet (Peace be upon him) was asked: “Which of the parents have a higher status?” He replied, “The one who for nine months kept you between her two sides (stomach), and then brought you into this world and gave you milk from her breasts.” [Mustadrak al-Wasāil, vol. 2, pg. 628] 4. Allāh will raise her from the grave pure and without an account (of sins) In Day Of J

For verily the Reminder benefits the Believers:- Shawwal Fasts Did you know... While the Ramadhan month promises all manners of rewards in the hereafter due to its uniqueness, the month of Shawal (the Islamic month following Ramadan) also offers comparable pleasures if observed with faith and piety to Allah Almighty. In the month of Shawal, the Muslim community will celebrate Eidul Fitr. This month is regarded as the month of victory for Muslims who have succeeded in completing their fast properly. The victory referred to is victory against temptations and in training the soul (spirit) as well as physical (body) to obey and always be conscious of the greatness of Allah Almighty. Our souls celebrate Eid ul Fitr with joy for having completed the month-long fast. The day's celebration is even more joyous when accompanied by rituals extolling Allah's greatness through takbir, tahmid and tasbih throughout the night before Eid day, as well as in the mornin

  Why is it considered healthy to break the Ramadan fast with dates, and why are Muslims recommended to pray before iftar ? – S.H.     Breaking the fast with dates is a Ramadan tradition, as most of its benefits are unique to this particular fast. Breaking one's fast with dates, as well as praying before iftar , are both mentioned in the Hadith literature: "The Messenger of Allah would break his fast with ripe dates before he would pray. If those were not available, he would eat dried dates. If those were not available, he would drink some water."   One of the many physical benefits of breaking the fast with dates is that our body benefits from the date's high level of natural sugars. Sugars travel most quickly to the liver, where they are converted into energy more quickly than any other nutrient. Muslims have an immediate need for this energy when they break their fast, for they need energy to perform their sunset prayers. Ironically, one also needs this

The Superiority of Lailat-ul-Qadr (the Night of Decree) Allah, the Exalted, says: "Verily, We have sent it (this Qur'an) down in the Night of Al-Qadr (Decree). And what will make you know what the Night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is? The Night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is better than a thousand months (i.e., worshipping Allah in that night is better than worshipping Him a thousand months, i.e., 83 years and 4 months). Therein descend the angels and the Ruh [Jibril (Gabriel)] by Allah's Permission with all Decrees. (All that night), there is peace (and goodness from Allah to His believing slaves) until the appearance of dawn.'' (97:1-5) "We sent it (this Qur'an) down on a blessed night [(i.e., the Night of Al-Qadr, Surah No:97) in the month of Ramadan, the 9th month of the Islamic calendar]. Verily, We are ever warning [mankind that Our Torment will reach those who disbelieve in Our Oneness of Lordship and in Our Oneness of worship]. Therein (that night

Prepare yourself, as we enter upon the last 10 days of Ramadan. Let not this blessed Night of Qadr pass you by. The signs of Laylatul-Qadar From amongst the signs of Laylatul-Qadar is that it is a calm night and the believer's heart is delighted and at peace with it, and he becomes active in doing good actions, and the sun on the following morning rises clearly without any rays. Shakyh Ibn al-'Uthaymeen Fataawa Ramadhan - Volume 2, Page 852, Fatwa No. 841; Fataawa ash-Shaykh Muhammad as-Saalih al-Uthaymeen - Volume 1, Page 563 Specifying the 27th of Ramadhaan as Laylatul-Qadar There is basis for this specification and that is that the night of the 27th of Ramadhan is mentioned in the hadeeth, in Saheeh Muslim, on the authority of 'Ubayy Ibn Ka'b (radhi-yallaahu 'anhu). However, the overwhelming opinion of the people of knowledge, from the forty or more opinions, is that Laylatul-Qadar is in the last ten nights, and specifically in the last s
