Assalaamu alaikum, brothers and sisters in Islam.  In these times of widespread ideologies and new religions, we Muslims must be vigilant against any deceptive movements disguised under the name of Islam or spirituality. One such movement causing confusion today is RMQK. But what exactly is RMQK? Who are those doing RMQK? Who is the leader of RMQK? Let’s reveal the truth. You may have seen the acronym RMQK circulating online, often accompanied by claims of “divine energy,” “spiritual healing,” or “higher consciousness. RMQK stands for a group whose full meaning varies by source, but the core of their movement…

Assalaamu alaikum, brothers and sisters in Islam. We all know that traveling can be exciting when going to new places, having new experiences, and that wonderful thrill of adventure. We should know that it can also come with uncertainties like fatigue and unexpected challenges. The good part is that our Prophet ﷺ taught us the dua while travelling. The dua for a traveler serves as a protection from physical and unseen harm. We live in a time where we travel by plane, car, boat, or train, which makes our travel easier than ever. But all these means also have…

The Day of Arafah (9th Dhul Hijjah) is not just another day, but a day that Allah perfected Islam for us, the day He descends to the lowest heaven, boasting to the angels about His servants standing in devotion on Arafat. It is the day when sins are forgiven, duas are answered, and the gates of mercy swing wide open. The best dua of the day of Arafah was mentioned to us by our Prophet ﷺ, and we are going to learn that today. Hadith on the Best Dua of the Day of Arafah (English) Abdullah ibn Amr reported: The…

In the sacred days of Dhul-Hijjah lies the Day of Arafah (Yaomul Arafah). For those who do not perform Hajj, fasting on Arafah is one of the greatest acts of worship you can offer on that day. Let’s explore the authentic Hadith on fasting on the day of Arafah, as narrated from our Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Hadith on fasting on the day of Arafah (Arabic) عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سُئِلَ عَنْ صَوْمِ يَوْمِ عَرَفَةَ فَقَالَ يُكَفِّرُ السَّنَةَ الْمَاضِيَةَ وَالْبَاقِيَةَ وَسُئِلَ عَنْ صَوْمِ يَوْمِ عَاشُورَاءَ فَقَالَ يُكَفِّرُ السَّنَةَ الْمَاضِيَةَ 1162 صحيح مسلم كتاب الصيام…

Here comes the day of Eid, the day of celebration, the day of offering sacrifice, the day of remembrance of Allah, the greatest day in the sight of Allah. We ask Allah to make us witness a lot of it on earth. However, there are some etiquettes of Eid Al Adha that have been forgotten, or some intentionally don’t do it, which is wrong. We are going to mention the things to do on the day of Eid Al Adha today in shaa Allah. The reason is because a lot of people see this great day as a day…

Alhamdulilah, what a great day Eid Al Adha is! The day that we muslims dress in our finest clothes, smiling warmly, embracing one another after the prayer, slaughtering of animals, and distributing neatly packed portions of food and meat to our neighbors, the poor, and even strangers. The streets come alive with takbeer that we chant (glorifying Allah), families reunite in joy, and we keep saying “Eid Mubarak” to one another. But upon all these celebrations, some of our Muslim brothers and sisters don’t know the story or reason behind it all, especially the children. This is why we…

Alhamdulillah, we are about to enter the month of Dhul Hijjah, which is the last month of the Islamic calendar. The virtues of the first ten days of Dhul Hijjah cannot be overlooked due to the fact that the first ten days are more beloved to Allah than any other days in the entire year. The virtues of the first ten days of Dhul Hijjah are so massive that even the most ordinary acts of worship during these days can weigh heavier on the scales than the most intense acts performed outside them. This is because of this saying from…

Assalaamu alaikum, brothers and sisters in Islam. Not knowing the required age of animals for sacrifice is among the common mistakes that some Muslims fall into during Qurbani. Judging an animal’s eligibility based on its size or appearance rather than its actual age is an error. Therefore, when buying an animal for Udhiyah, it is compulsory that we put the age of sacrificial animals into consideration. A large, fattened goat or sheep may look “ready” to the eye, but if it hasn’t reached the required age of animals for sacrifice, the Qurbani is not valid in the eyes of…

Alhamdulillah!. All praises belong to Allah, and we ask Him to make us witness a lot of Eid Al Adha on earth and accept our worship. As we all know that the greatest act of worship on the day of Eid AL Adha is slaughtering an Animal for Allah and it is a worship that entails mentioning the dua for slaughtering an Animal on it. We have a lot of authentic duas for you today, which you can choose from. Some of us don’t even know what to say before slaughtering an animal. This is a great error because…
