As a parent, your love for your child is immeasurable, so deep that you’d find all means to shield them from harm. Every time they step out of the house, fall sick, or face life’s uncertainties, your heart trembles with worry. But Alhamdulillah, we are not left alone. Islam has given us the most powerful tools through adhkar and dua for children’s protection from harm from cradle to adult. Islam teaches us that dua (supplication) is a believer’s strongest weapon. The Prophet ﷺ showed us how to seek protection for our children through specific Quranic verses, prophetic invocations, and daily adhkar. So…

Assalaamu alaikum, our brothers in Islam. As human beings, at some point in life, we might experience a sudden fear with no cause, or a series of hardships that seem unnatural, a sickness that comes out of nowhere, or a sense of something just not being right. Yes, that’s how life is, but as Muslims, our greatest weapon is the powerful dua for protection from evil, which our Prophet taught ﷺ us. Many today turn to beads, inscriptions, or cultural charms out of desperation. But as believers, we know that true safety lies only in what Allah has prescribed…
It’s nothing new these days seeing people leaving the mouse after saying the tasleem, while this is a very bad act. Maybe it’s due to the fact that a lot of them don’t know the importance of adhkar after salah or the benefits of adhkar after salah. Either one of the two. And it might also be due to the fact that they don’t know it. We are supposed to be striving Muslims, my brothers and sisters. Someone who will strive to know more about the Deen, and most especially some things that will benefit us, like the adhkar…
Assalaam alaikum, brothers and sisters. It’s quite unfortunate that we see a lot of brothers leaving masjid immediately after solah. And it is well known that our Prophet ﷺ taught us to sit and recite the Adhkar after Salah. It is a powerful Sunnah that completes the act of worship. This remembrance (adhkar after Solah) is not just a tradition; it is a means of seeking forgiveness, protection, and a way to multiply rewards. Reciting the adhkar after Salah or adhkar after Solat, as they are commonly referred to in various Muslim communities, is a highly recommended Sunnah that…
Imagine walking into a royal palace, would you storm in with dusty shoes, loud chatter, and no regard for protocol? Of course not. You’d lower your voice, fix your posture, and walk with reverence. Now ask yourself, if this is the respect due to a worldly king, what about the house of the King of Kings, Allah? The Masjid is a house of Allah, and you need to observe some etiquettes of entering the Mosque. We Muslims should be very conscious and know very well that the Mosques are the house of Allah. Not where Allah is sleeping, no.…
Assalaam alaikum.As we all know that every step a believer takes toward the Masjid is a step toward Allah’s forgiveness and mercy. But did you know that there’s a recommended dua when leaving the mosque, which we can say as an act of worship? Yes, our Prophet ﷺ taught us specific duas for some particular moment, and he taught us the dua for leaving the masjid too. Every action, no matter how small, can become an act of worship if done with intention and in accordance with the Sunnah. The authentic Dua for leaving the Masjid is narrated in…
Asaalaamu alaikum, my brothers and sisters. As we all know that the best house on earth is the house of Allah, the Masjid. A place of peace. A place of mercy. A place where angels gather, and Allah’s tranquility descends there. It is an everyday house that we all enter, but do we really know the authentic dua when entering a Mosque, or we have never heard that there is an authentic dua for entering a Masjid? This means that most of us just walk in like it’s any regular building when we can’t even walk into a town…
Assalaam alaikum, brothers and sisters in Islam. There’s no how pious we are that we won’t be falling into sins sometimes. No one is immune to sin. Not me, not you. Even the most righteous companions of the Prophet ﷺ made mistakes, but they turned back to Allah, At-Tawwab (The One who accepts repentance repeatedly). So, what are the true conditions for repentance to be accepted in Islam? Somebody might be wondering whether repentance needs to have certain conditions. Yes, it should. Repentance isn’t just about saying Astaghfirullah a few times and moving on. It’s deeper than that. Real repentance,…
Assalaamu alaikum, my brothers and sisters in Islam. As human beings, we are not perfect. We all make mistakes, either big or small. But what sets a believer apart is not a life free of sin, rather, it is the sincerity in turning back to Allah with humility and repentance. One of the best ways is performing Salat Al Tawbah, also known as the prayer of repentance. Our Prophet ﷺ made it known to us that… “All the children of Adam are sinners, but the best of sinners are those who repent.”(Sunan Ibn Majah 4251 – Hasan) This means…
In recent years, a new movement known as RMQK has begun gaining fame among certain circles in Nigeria and other parts of West Africa. Many are asking, “Is RMQK part of Islam?, and more importantly, “What is the Islamic verdict on RMQK?” These questions are valid and crucial to answer according to Islam view on it. This is because this group speaks in the name of Allah or the Prophet ﷺ, that’s why we must return to the Quran, the authentic Sunnah, and the understanding of the Salaf al-Salih (righteous predecessors) to assess their validity. RMQK is a new…
