Marriage in the Sunnah of Prophet Mohammad (pbuh)
"النِّکاحُ سُنَّتِي، فَمَن رَغِبَ عَن سُنَّتي فَلَیسَ مِنّي" |
Patience – A Formidable Weapon
The basic premise then, of sabr, is of freeing oneself from the desires of this world. If one were to be enslaved by their carnal appetite, at some point man could choose to neglect obedience to God by fulfilling obedience to desire.

Despair; the state of the disbeliever
يَا بَنِيَّ اذْهَبُوا فَتَحَسَّسُوا مِنْ يُوسُفَ وَأَخِيهِ وَلا تَيْئَسُوا مِنْ رَوْحِ اللَّهِ إِنَّهُ لا يَيْئَسُ مِنْ رَوْحِ اللَّهِ إِلاَّ الْقَوْمُ الكَافِرُونَ. Go, O my sons! And ascertain concerning Joseph and his brother, and despair not of the Spirit of Allah. Lo! None despaireth of the Spirit of Allah save disbelieving folk. (12:87) |
The Value of Du’a’ in a Congregation
The Holy Prophet (S) said: لاَ يَجْتَمِعُ أرْبَعُونَ رَجُلاً فِي أمْرٍ وَاحِدٍ إلاّ اسْتَجَابُ اللهُ تَعَالَى لَهُمْ حَتَّى لَوْ دَعَوْا عَلَى جَبَلٍ لأَزَالُوهُ. No forty men gather together to pray for a single issue, unless the Almighty God accepts their prayer; to the extent that if they pray against a mountain, it will collapse. |
Du’a’ in Traditions

Du’a’ (supplication) in the Holy Qur’an
The Almighty, who is the Revealer of knowledge and wisdom, states in His Qur’an: قُلْ مَا يَعْبَأُ بِكُمْ رَبِّي لَوْلا دُعَاؤُكُمْ فَقَدْ كَذَّبْتُمْ فَسَوْفَ يَكُونُ لِزَامًا. Say (O’ Muhammad to the disbelievers): My Lord would not concern Himself with you, but for your prayers. (25:77) |
Du’a’ (supplication) in a Glance

Why people accept apologies from one another?
All praise belongs to him – the Most Merciful, the Most Forgiving and we pray that we can forgive others just as we would like Allah to forgive us and overlook all of our many faults and slips. |
Rights of The Relatives
Amir ul-Mu"minin (a) said: “Man, though wealthy, cannot dispense with his clan. He is in need for their defending him with hands and tongues. They are one’s greatest backers, best reuniters, and most affectionate when a misfortune befalls.” |
Did the Prophet (s) combine prayers?
Ibn 'Abbas reported that the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) observed in Medina seven (rak'ahs) and eight (rak'ahs), i. e. (combined) the noon (Zuhr) and afternoon (`Asr) prayers (eight rak'ahs) and the dusk (Maghrib) and night ('Isha') prayers (seven rak'ahs). |
