ASSALAMALKIUM BROTHER & SISTER.

Make Good Intentions....
LIVE YOUR LIFE WITH INTENT!!


2:225 (Y. Ali) Allah will not call you to account for thoughtlessness in your oaths, but for the intention in your hearts; and He is Oft-forgiving, Most Forbearing.
33:5 (Y. Ali) Call them by (the names of) their fathers: that is juster in the sight of Allah. But if ye know not their father’s (names, call them) your Brothers in faith, or your maulas. But there is no blame on you if ye make a mistake therein: (what counts is) the intention of your hearts: and Allah is Oft-Returning, Most Merciful.
4:93( Y. Ali) If a man kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell, to abide therein (For ever): And the wrath and the curse of Allah are upon him, and a dreadful penalty is prepared for him.
Narrated Umar bin Al-Khattab: I heard Allah’s Apostle saying,
“The reward of deeds depends upon the intentions and every person will get the reward according to what he has intended. So whoever emigrated for worldly benefits or for a woman to marry, his emigration was for what he emigrated for. Bukhari 1:1:1
Narrated Abu Mas’ud: The Prophet said,
“If a man spends on his family (with the intention of having a reward from Allah) sincerely for Allah’s sake then it is a (kind of) alms-giving in reward for him.Bukhari 1:2:52
Narrated Jundub The Prophet said,
“He who lets the people hear of his good deeds intentionally, to win their praise, Allah will let the people know hisreal intention (on the Day of Resurrection), and he who does good things in public to show off and win the praise of the people, Allah will disclose his real intention (and humiliate him). Bukhari 8:76:506
the Prophet, who said,
If somebody intends to do a good deed and he does not do it, then Allah will write for him a full good deed in his account with Him; and if he intends to do a good deed and actually did it, then Allah will write for him in his account with Him, from ten to seven hundred times to many more times its reward. And if somebody intended to do a bad deed and he does not do it, then Allah will write a full good deed in his account with Him; and if he intended to do a bad deed and actually did it, then Allah will write one bad deed in his account.” (Al-Bukhari)
Action Plan
1. Make intention for sake of Allah
2. Be sincere with your intention
3. Let your intention and action coincide
4. Do not do good deeds for show or being praised by others
5. make clear intentions
6. Write down your intention
7. Have a plan to implement your intention

Why do we read Quran, even if we can’t understand a single Arabic word????

Why do we read Quran, even if we can’t understand a single Arabic word????


American Muslim lived on a farm in the mountains of eastern Kentucky with his young grandson. Each morning Grandpa was up early sitting at the kitchen table reading his Quran. His grandson wanted to be just like him and tried to imitate him in every way he could.
One day the grandson asked, ‘Grandpa! I try to read the Quran just like you but I don’t understand it, and what I do understand I forget as soon as I close the book. What good does reading the Qur’an do?’

The Grandfather quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied, ‘Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water.’

The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house. The grandfather laughed and said, ‘You’ll have to move a little faster next time,’ and sent him back to the river with the basket to try again. This time the boy ran faster, but again the basket was empty before he returned home. Out of breath, he told his grandfather that it was impossible to carry water in a basket, and he went to get a bucket instead.

The old man said, ‘I don’t want a bucket of water; I want a basket of water. You’re just not trying hard enough,’ and he went out the door to watch the boy try again.
At this point, the boy knew it was impossible, but he wanted to show his grandfather that even if he ran as fast as he could, the water would leak out before he got back to the house. The boy again dipped the basket into river and ran hard, but when he reached his grandfather the basket was again empty. Out of breath, he said, ‘See Grandpa, it’s useless!’
‘So you think it is useless?’ The old man said, ‘Look at the basket.’

The boy looked at the basket and for the first time realized that the basket was different. It had been transformed from a dirty old coal basket and was now clean, inside and out.

‘Son, that’s what happens when you read the Qur’an. You might not understand or remember everything, but when you read it, you will be changed, inside and out. That is the work of Allah in our lives.’
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh & his family) says:
*’The one who guides to good will be rewarded equally’*

Purpose of Life

“What Is The Purpose Of Life?”  
  

What is the purpose of this life? 
Money, holidays, a beautiful wife? 

There is no point in us denying 
Each heart beat brings us closer to dying 


You’ll breathe your last 
Your life will have past 

Don’t pretend 
Death’s not the end 



You will taste death, death never waited 
Look around you, everything’s created 

It has a creator, it has a meaning 
A mother gives birth and then comes it’s weaning 


The sun rises and gives us light 
It sets, then falls, the blanket of night 

The plants all grow, when falls the rain 
They give fruits to man, and they too will wane 



Why does man think that he will get away? 
Spending life aimlessly, as if he’s here to stay 
A fixed time is appointed; everything will perish 
Everything you hate, everything you relish 

Except the Almighty Allah, He will remain 
And then will come judgment, all on one plain 

Allah will say, I gave you life 
I gave you health, wealth and a wife 


What did you do with your time? 
What did you do in your prime? 

Did you spread my message, did you spread Islam? 
Why not? Did you not read the Qur’an? 


My friends, we Muslims, we are so blessed 
Allah gave us Islam to supercede all the rest 

My non-Muslim friends, the Qur’an must be read 
Read before it’s too late and you’re dead 


You owe it to yourselves, it will make you cry 
You’ll know these words are from the Lord most High 

Instructing mankind to the purpose of life 
And the reward my friends is everlasting life 



Our purpose is to worship our Lord most High 
The reward is heaven where no one will die 
You’ll have anything you want, all the best dishes 
And Almighty Allah will grant all of your wishes 

This life my friends is just a cage 
We should live by His orders, to be safe from his rage 

You will understand when you read the Holy Qur’an 
You’ll know the religion of truth is Islam 


Protect yourself and your families from hell 
Embrace Islam and all will be well 
For the deeds of this life, you’ll pay the price 
In the depths of hell or in paradise. 

(Please share with your friends, especially if you have non-muslim friends)
