Narated By 'Aisha (radiallahuanha)
Allah's Apostle ﷺ said,
"Do good deeds properly, sincerely and moderately and know that your deeds will not make you enter Paradise, and that the most beloved deed to Allah's is the most regular and constant even though it were little."
Sahih Bukhari
Vol-8, Book 76, Hadith 471
يقول الشيخ محمد متولي الشعراوي رحمه الله:
Shaykh Sha'arawiy says:
عجبتُ لأربع يغفلون عن أربع:
I'm baffled by four persons faced by four situations, but forget four solutions:
1 - عجبتُ لمن ابتُـلى ( بغم ) ، كيف يغفل عن قول : ۞ لا إلهَ إلاّ أنتَ سُبحانكَ إني كنتُ من الظالمين ۞
1. Someone in Grief, how does he forget: (Laa ilaaha illaa anta, sub-haanaka, innii kuntu minadzaalimeen).
Don't you see what Allah says afterwards?
والله يقول بعدها ؛ ۞ فاستجبنا لهُ ونجيناهُ من الغم ۞
"So, we responded to him and saved him from GRIEF..."
2 - عجبتُ لمن ابتُـلى ( بضرّ ) ، كيف يغفل عن قول : ۞ ربي إني مسّنيَ الضرُ وأنتَ أرحمُ الراحمين ۞
2. Someone in SICKNESS, how does he forget to say (Rabbii innii massaniya-dhurr wa anta Arhamur-Raahimeen)
Don't you see what Allah says afterwards?
والله يقول بعدها ؛ ۞ فا ستجبنا له وكشفنا ما به من ضر ۞
"So, we responded to him and cured him from all his SICKNESS..."
3 -عجبتُ لمن ابتُـلى ( بخوفٍ ) ، كيف يغفل عن قول : ۞ حسبنا الله ونعم الوكيل ۞
3. Someone in FEAR, how does he forget to say (Hasbunallaahu wa niimal-wakeel)
Don't you see what Allah says afterwards?
والله يقول بعدها ؛ ۞ فانقلبوا بنعمةٍ من اللهِ وفضلٍ لم يمسسهم سوء ۞
"Therefore, they returned with a great bounty from Allah and a great favour; ... no evil had befallen them."
4 - عجبتُ لمن ابتُـلى
بمكرِ الناس ) ، كيف يغفل عن قول : ۞"وَأُفَوِّضُ أَمْرِي إِلَى اللَّهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ بَصِيرٌ بِالْعِبَادِ" ۞
4. Someone facing PEOPLE'S EVIL; how does he forget to say (wa ufawwidu amrii illa-llaah, innallaaha baseerun bil-ibaad)
Don't you see what Allah says afterwards?
والله يقول بعدها ؛ ۞ فوقاهُ اللهُ سيئاتِ ما مكروا ۞
"Thus, Allah protected him from the EVIL they had planned..."

The one who looks after and works for a widow.

How can we support our brothers who are in need or who have suffered disasters?
Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allaah have mercy on him) said,
There are different ways of supporting a fellow believer:
with one’s wealth, with one’s position of authority or power, by means of physical service, by offering sincere advice and guidance, by making supplication (du’aa’) and asking for forgiveness for them, and by feeling their pain. The level of one’s support will be affected by the level of one's faith. The weaker a person's faith, the weaker his support will be; the stronger the faith, the stronger the support. The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) was the greatest of all people in his support for his companions, so the more closely his followers follow him, the greater will be their support for their fellow-believers.

“… And whosoever fears Allah and keeps his duty to Him, He will make a way for him to get out of every difficulty.”
(Surah Talaq, 65:2)
*💎Pearls of Muhammad[ﷺ]*
*🗓 Safar 13, 1438H*
'Abdullah Ibn Umar (رضي الله عنه) reported:
❝A man came to the *_Prophet [ﷺ]_* & said:
"O Messenger of Allaah! Which of the people are the most beloved to Allaah and which of the actions are most beloved to Allaah?"
*The Messenger of Allaah [ﷺ]* said:
🔅"The most beloved of the people to Allaah are the most beneficial for the people.
🔅The most beloved of actions to Allaah are to cause happiness to reach a Muslim, to relieve him from a hardship, to settle a debt for a Muslim or to repel hunger from him.
🔅For me to walk with a brother in order to assist him is more beloved to me than to make ‘Itikaf in this Masjid [Masjid al-Madeenah] for a month.
🔅Whoever holds back his anger, then Allaah hides his mistakes.
🔅Whoever suppresses his anger, even though he is not scared to show it, but withholds due to the truth, Allaah fills his heart with hope on the day of Judgement.
🔅Whoever walks with his brother to assist him with a need until he has helped him completely, then Allaah plants his feet firmly on the day people will not stand firmly.
🔅Indeed bad behaviour spoils good actions, just as vinegar spoils honey.’❞

“Put your hand on the part of the body that hurts and say Bismillaah three times. And say seven times

*FOUNDATION OF ISLAMIC KNOWLEDGE*
*LESSON 5:*
*SHIRK (ASSOCIATION OF OTHERS WITH ALLAH IN WORSHIP):*
Shirk is divided into two categories:
*1. Major Shirk*
*2. Minor Shirk*
*1. MAJOR SHIRK (MAJOR POLYTHEISM)*
It necessitates the failure of deeds and remaining forever in the Hell-fire as per Qur’anic account.
*_“But if they have joined in worship others with Allah, what they used to do would have been of no benefit to them”._* (Quran Ch.6: V.88)
Whoever dies in a state of Shirk, will not be forgiven and will not be allowed into Paradise, pursuant to God saying, *_“Verily Allah forgives not (the sign of) setting up partners in worship with Him but He forgives, whom He Pleases, sins other than that.”_* (Quran Ch.4:V.116)
and Allah says: *_“Verily whosoever sets up partners in worship with Allah then Allah Has Forbidden Paradise for him and the Fire will be his abode; and for the zalimoon (polytheists and wrong-doers) there are no helpers.”_* (Ch.5: V.72)
_Shirk categorized under this type includes:_
*Calling those who are dead, praying to idols for help and for relief, pledging to them and offering animals for slaughter as a sign of obedience to them, Prostrating (sujood) or Bowing (Ruku) for other than Allah, etc.,*
*2. MINOR SHIRK (MINOR POLYTHEISM)*
It is the type proved by the texts of Quran and Sunnah to be called Shirk, but it is not categorized under Major Shirk. Such as, hypocrisy in some deeds, to swear by those other than Allah and saying Allah Will and so and so will, Show-off, and the like.
This type of Shirk (i.e. Minor Shirk) does not necessitate apostasy of remaining in Hell fire, but it lacks the perfection of the obligatory Tauheed.
Following are some pertinent Hadeeths of our Prophet (Peace be upon him).
*“May I tell you of what I fear very much, that might harm you more than Al-Masih aad-Dajjal?” (the False Messiah) The audience said, “Yes, Prophet of Allah”. He said, “The disguised Shirk...when a man gets up to pray and strives to beautify his prayer, because
people are looking at him.”* reported by Abi Sa’eed al Khudri and narrated by Imam Ahmed in his Musnad.
*“He who swore by something other than Allah shall be regarded as Mushrik.”* Reported by Umar ibn al-Khatab (RAL) and narrated by Ahmed.
*DISGUISED SHIRK*
Disguised Shirk may fall into both types i.e. Major Shirk and minor Shirk. It may fall in the major Shirk such as *‘the Shirk of hypocrites’*, because they conceal their bad faith and pretend to be Muslims to cover themselves.
Disguised Shirk may also fall in the category of minor Shirk such as *“Riya“* - To Showoff.

Ibn Abbas (رضي الله عنهم) narrated:
One day, I was riding behind the Prophet(ﷺ) when he said,
"O young boy, be mindful of Allaah and He will protect you.
Be mindful of Allaah and you will find Him in front of you,
And if you ask, ask from Allaah,
And if you seek help, seek help from Allaah.
And know that if all the people gathered and intended to harm you then they cannot do so except that which Allaah has destined for you.

Jabir (رضي الله عنهم) reported:
I heard Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) saying,
"If a person mentions the Name of Allah upon entering his house or eating, Satan says, addressing his followers: 'You will find no where to spend the night and no dinner.'
But if he enters without mentioning the Name of Allah, Satan says (to his followers); 'You have found (a place) to spend the night in, and if he does not mention the Name of Allah at the time of eating, Satan says: 'You have found (a place) to spend the night in as well as food."'

On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (رضي الله عنهم)
I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say,
“What I have forbidden for you, avoid. What I have ordered you [to do], do as much of it as you can.
For verily, it was only the excessive questioning and their disagreeing with their Prophets that destroyed [the nations] who were before you.”
