"A woman needs to be maintained financially, spiritually, morally, and above all intelletually because women are creatures of sound, and men are creatures of sight, and above all you must know the art of a relationship, is based upon communication" –Imam Malik

Hardships, illness and troubles are blessings in disguise

Bismillah,

Abu Hurayrah radi Allahu anhu reported that the Prophet said: “Hardships continue to befall a believing man and woman in their body, family, and property, until they meet Allah Subhanahu ta’ala burdened with no sins.” [Tirmithee]

Consequences of withdrawing from the remembering Allah Ta'ala.

Assalaamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu,

Here is some food for thought, may Allah give us the guidance never to leave the remembrance of Him.

If anyone withdraws himself from remembrance of The Most Gracious, we appoint for him a Satan, to be an intimate companion to him.

Such (Satans) really hinder them from the Path, but they think that they are being guided aright!

Quraan S.43 v36 & 37

Wedding Season!!!

Assalaamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullhi waBarakatuhu,

The december holiday season seems to spark a chain reaction of weddings in the asian Region.

There are lots of weddings coming up in my family too and Inshallah I'll be able to attend a couple of these this year.

I was looking at a lot of make up looks that are relatively easy to do, and here is one that I found that looks really stunning.

Watch out for these HARAAM ingredients!!!

Assalaamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu,

I just came across the following ingredients that are HARAAM! Please watch out for them in your food stuff as well as in Make up products!

CARMINE
COCHINEAL
NATURAL RED 4
C.I.
CL 75470
E120


This is a red colouring that is derived from the blood of an insect. You may ask me why is it Haraam, well, the following verse explains this:

“He hath forbidden you only carrion, and blood, and swineflesh, and that which hath been immolated to (the name of) any other than Allah. But he who is driven by necessity, neither craving nor transgressing, it is no sin for him. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful” (2:173).

Hope this helps you when there is no stamp of a Halaal authority on a product you want to buy!

Ma' Salaam!
