Another Question From Your New Muslim Brother

[AbuMubarak]

This Ummah is truly blessed, never ever negate the blessings of being muslim, and always invite others to islam, but never consider the kuffar as equal to the muslim




HADITH No. 2


Abu Hurayrah relates that Rasulullah (SAW) said, "My


Ummah were given five things for Ramadhaan which were


not given to anyone except them. For them, the smell


from the mouth of a fasting person is more sweeter to


Allah than the fragrant smell of musk. On their behalf


the fish in the sea seek forgiveness for the fasting


persons until they break their fast. Allah prepares


and decorates a special garden in Jannah everyday and


then says (to it), "The time is near when faithful


servants shall cast aside the great trials of the


world and come to you". In this month (for them)


evil-minded Shaytaan is chained so as not to reach


unto those evils to which they normally reach during


other months besides Ramadhaan. On the last night of


Ramadhaan they are forgiven". The Sahaabah R.A.


thereupon enquired, "0 Messenger of Allah, is that


last night Laylatul Qadr? Rasulullah () replied, "No.


But it is only right that a servant should be given


his reward on having completed his service".
